This doubler needs sunlight. Period! If you use it ouddoors in full sun, the autofocus works perfectly.You can turn your lens to manual to focus when it refuses to do it on it #39;s own and it will still take great shots.Such cases for me have been... fluorescent lighting (actually any indoor lighting I have tried it on) and very cloudy days.Make sure it is on a tripod during these manual focus times, because the shutter speed is reduced and doing it hand-held (for me) caused motion blur.My main use for this is outdoor wildlife photography and it is absolutely what I needed. On a sunny day this week, I actually captured a Red Tailed Hawk glidingthrough the air about 100 meters away and you can see every detail of the bird.No complaints from me on this product." "I bought this piece with intention to increase the image captured by my digital camera directly to a D5000 NIKON NIKON E200 microscope ... Got a great solution! I am very satisfied with using the microscope and the lens (18-200mm), but this loses the ability to autofocus. The image quality is always great, especially in the light of day."

Cream Foundation- Finding your shade
This video shows you how you can choose a cream (or liquid) foundation shade that #39;s perfect for your skin tone. (When choosing your liquid or cream foundation shade, it #39;s important to use daylight rather than indoor lighting, which could change the way the foundation looks on your skin.) Here, I actually used two shades of cream foundations to achieve Eshi #39;s base where the lighter shade was used as a highlighter, and the darker shade matched her jaw line and ended up being the contour for her face shape. Also, it #39;s best to blend the foundation down towards your neck area since your neck could be a few shades lighter or darker than your face. A big thank you to Lintons Beauty World for providing all the Black Opal products used in this tutorial. They are available at their Westgate and Junction locations, here in Nairobi.

TROY, Mich., Oct. 31, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Viper Networks, Inc. (Pink Sheets:VPER) is pleased to announce positive developments for both LED lighting pilot programs with Sri Lanka's Ministry of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources; and with Colombo city officials representing the largest metropolitan area in Sri Lanka.

Positive developments are two-fold, as the time period for each pilot project is expected to be reduced by at least 50 percent, to 30 days maximum for each pilot installation and testing program, respectively; and manufacturing capabilities for the Company's exclusive partner Apollo Metro Solutions are quickly ramping up to achieve greater production capacity by mid-December.

While the Company seeks to install indoor lighting and street lights for all of Sri Lanka's 18 existing harbors and 11 new harbors under construction, the anticipated agreement (upon pilot project completion) for approximately 100 to 200 indoor lights and street lights per location represent the much smaller of the two pilot programs.

The Company's priority to establish significantly increased manufacturing capacity with Apollo Metro reflects in part, Viper Networks targeting much larger LED Street Light municipality clients for economically fast growing countries with major cities abroad, as well as a domestic focus on securing agreements with certain municipalities with multiple cities and towns within one or more U.S. counties for potential large scale LED street light replacement business.

As detailed in the announcement dated October 10, 2012; the Company has reached agreement with top officials of Colombo, Sri Lanka to initiate a short-term pilot program for testing Apollo Metro Solutions' LED Street Lights with installations along one main boulevard in Colombo, the country's provincial capital and largest metropolitan area with approximately 1.5 million people.

The Sri Lanka Ministry of Fisheries pilot program could lead to a total order of 2,000 to 3,000 indoor and street light installations for all existing harbors, however; the city of Colombo's LED Street Light pilot program is expected to lead to full order estimates totaling approximately 200,000 LED Street Light units for Colombo alone.

In a country with a population in excess of 20 million people, Sri Lanka hosts a concentration of citizens in 15 major cities throughout the country's 9 geographical provinces. Since Viper Networks' CEO is conducting business with Sri Lanka government officials, LED street light testing and installation success is expected to lead directly to securing additional agreements with other major cities throughout the country.

Sri Lanka officials have requested that the forthcoming LED Street Light pilot project for Colombo include the all-in-one street light housing unit option for wireless utility meter reading and advanced metering infrastructure solutions. Noting such confirmation, Viper Networks CEO will be traveling to Colombo, Sri Lanka to accompany the first delivery of LED street light units in the month ahead, which will include the wireless meter reading feature built-in to the all-in-one housing unit, and meet with Sri Lanka officials as the Company begins the anticipated LED Street Light pilot project prior to commencement of a city wide roll-out shortly after pilot success.

If the Company is able to obtain the additional wireless meter reading option approval after review by Sri Lanka's Minister of Water Management, shareholders and potential investors should note that each LED Street Light priced in the range of $500 to $1000 will more closely price out at the latter figure per unit.

Based on the minimum of 10,000 street light unit installations monthly, the potential gross value monthly amount will be approximately $7,500,000 to $8,000,000 (per month), which will continued for approximately 20 months and potentially represent a total value of up to $150 million (U.S. dollars), as it relates to the complete delivery and installation of all 200,000 LED street lights.

Viper Networks Poised to Capitalize on LED Street Light Conversions With Municipalities Domestically and Abroad

DURHAM, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

The New York City Department of Transportation (NYC DOT) recently completed the installation of nearly 1,600 LED luminaires that light walkways and grassy areas in Central Park. The new luminaires from Spring City Electrical feature Cree (CREE) XLamp XP-G LEDs in each fixture and were produced using an advanced light engine from Heatron. DOT officials estimate the new LED lighting will reduce energy usage by 62 percent and deliver annual maintenance savings of nearly $30,000 compared to metal halide lighting.

The NYC DOT initiated the project in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) GATEWAY demonstration program to improve the park environment for local citizens and visitors and to significantly lower energy and maintenance expenses for the city. Located in the heart of Manhattan, Central Park presented a unique lighting challenge, said James Brodrick, DOE Lighting Program Manager. For walkways in general, its important to measure both horizontal and vertical illuminance. The former to monitor available light for paths and to determine how much is distributed onto the adjacent grass and the latter to determine whether the illumination is sufficient to identify approaching pedestrians.

Addressing the challenge head-on, Spring City Electrical joined forces with Heatron and Cree to deliver the new fixtures. The luminaires, which Spring City projects to have an estimated 75,000-hour lifespan, are being placed on existing 9-ft tall cast iron posts and are spaced about 80 ft apart along the paved walking trail.

Spring Citys engineering capabilities and old world craftsmanship are well represented in the Central Park LED installation, said Chris Rosfelder, vice president sales and marketing, Spring City Electrical. We are very pleased with the performance of Crees XP-G LEDs in our luminaire systems. Cree LEDs are consistently among the highest performing LEDs in the industry. And Heatron is really the glue that brings us all together their OEM leadership enables us to leverage the best LED technology in the industry.

New York City’s Central Park Completes LED Lighting Installation to Lower Energy Usage, Reduce Maintenance and Improve ...

Taipei, Taiwan GlacialLight, a division of the experienced technology manufacturer, GlacialTech Inc., has announced two new AC-TRIAC Dimmable LED Down Lights, GL-DL04DL and GL-DL04DH, which have now joined the company's popular range of LED lighting products. The new GL-DL04DL and GL-DL04DH down lights are the first entries into the GL-DL04D Capella Series.

The difference between the two down lights is that the GL-DL04DL has the input of 100-120V AC and the GL-DL04DH has the input of 200-240V AC.

The GL-DL04DL and GL-DL04DH consume only 9W and come with a TS10P-30L/H (AC-TRIAC 100-120V AC / 200-240 V AC) dimmable driver, which allows lighting to be adjusted to fit the preferred lighting scenarios.

These 9W LED down lights are ideal replacements for older, less-efficient light sources. Their pleasant natural illumination is great for all interior lighting applications making them the obvious choice for any locations that require area illumination. Such illumination can transform a gloomy office into an enjoyable one, or make a store space even more welcoming to clients.

The GL-DL04D Series down lights provide area illumination on demand with their wide 120 beam angle. Typical applications for the 114 mm wide down lights include hospitals, airports, offices, supermarkets, stores, and most other commercial, and retail locations.

GlacialLight designed these products with cost saving for the users in mind. The GL-DL04DL's and GL-DL04DH's long lifetime LED technology slashes maintenance and replacement costs, with a lifetime of 30,000 hours, more than six times longer than traditional fluorescent lamps. The increased energy efficiency of LEDs also helps to reduce energy expenses.

The GL-DL04D Series comes in 3 color temperatures from warm white to cool white (3000K, 4000K, and 6000K). The GL-DL04DL and GL-DL04DH are only 13mm deep, minimizing architectural and interior design issues, and it employs strong but light construction to achieve its low weight of just 235g.

GlacialLight with the environment and safety of its customers in mind made GL-DL04DL and GL-DL04DH completely RoHS compliant. The products do not contain mercury or other hazardous chemicals nor do they emit harmful UV or IR radiation, making them far more eco-friendly than traditional lighting fixtures and technologies. Even the product packaging is recyclable.

GlacialLight supports the new GL-DL04D Series with a full two year warranty. GlacialLight is delighted to begin offering this new and innovative down light product to all of its existing partners, and to potential new customers around the world (except US). Specifications

Product Features of DL04DL DL04DH Dimmable LED Down Lights Slim and low profile design For indoor use only Power usage of only 9W AC-TRIAC dimmable 6x longer lifespan than fluorescent lamps: 30,000 hours RoHS compliant, No Mercury, IR or UV light radiation 2 year manufacturer's warranty

This is going to sound like heresy, but the Green Bay Packers seriously need to build a dome.

No, this is not a complaint about the freezing cold that comes in December and January. Rather this is a plea for the chance to see something ridiculously awesome every week. There is nothing quite like watching quarterback Aaron Rodgers when he's indoors.

"It's hard to explain," the league's reigning MVP said after leading the 4-3 Packers to a 30-20 win at St. Louis. "I just always enjoy playing in a controlled environment. I think a lot of it is that we have an athletic team that plays fast and playing inside helps an athletic team."

Aaron Rodgers, pursued by Robert Quinn, looks for a receiver. (Getty)Fair enough, but "enjoy"? Seriously, that's like saying Kim Kardashian "enjoys" attention. On the heels of lighting up the Houston Texans for six touchdowns last week to get Green Bay's season back on the right track, a "focused" Rodgers posted another sensational game by going 30-of-37 for 342 yards and three touchdown passes.

"I would say that I'm focused, not angry," said Rodgers, who lightly disputed a claim from last week by the NBC Sunday Night crew that he was upset before the game against Houston. Some of that may be a matter of semantics. Rodgers admitted being "frustrated" before the game by all the questioning of the team.

"We hadn't been playing well and I knew that it was on me to get us back on track, particularly going into Houston," Rodgers said. "But I wasn't angry and I'll just leave it at that. That was an interesting production meeting. That's all I'll say."

Those nine TD passes and zero interceptions over the past two games are part of a bigger trend. Over Rodgers' past eight indoor games, which include a Super Bowl win over Pittsburgh and a playoff game at Atlanta, Rodgers has completed 201 of 283 passes (71.0 percent) for 2,623 yards, 25 touchdowns and one interception.

Double that and you have a 5,306-yard, 50-touchdown and two interception season.

And yeah, that's only one pick. That came two weeks ago in a stunning comeback win by Indianapolis after the Packers were up 21-3 at halftime Green Bay's only loss in this eight-game span. That run, which includes five games either in the playoffs or against playoff-caliber teams, works out to a rating of 127.9. Thats better than his NFL record rating of 122.5 he compiled last season.

Again, this is done at a time when the defense should have a distinct advantage because of crowd noise and playing on turf. Instead, Rodgers and the Packers have made that football truism into an absurdity.
