Thanks guys for the suggestions. I have passed them on to her and waiting for her to tell me what she thinks.

My girlfriend's office was moved to a different part of the floor and ever since the move she has had massive headaches and all the typical symptoms of an allergic reaction. It affected her to the point where she was doing 20% of the work that she normally did in a day and felt better after taking anti histamines (benadryl) and leaving the office. She requested HR to send out an email requesting the employees not wear perfume to work as there were a few that were bathing in it. That didn't seem to stop it. She went to a physician to get her blood tested and for an allergy test (nothing came up on the blood test other than low calcium). No scratch test was done because she had been taking benadryl every day. The issue has popped up again for the past week and she has been feeling absolutely miserable. To the doctors - Is there anything in the way of a kit to test for allergens in the air around her desk area? Perhaps test the cubicle material or the carpet. Failing that, is there anything she can do to keep the allergens away? A fan? Magic incense? I have the image of a humidifier in my mind but something for allergies. The office is an open floor with cubicles so it is hard to isolate the air but it has gotten so bad that even immediate relief would be good for her. To the lawyers - If the doctors find some way to test the air, is it within her legal rights to check the air/carpet/cubicle or is it something that HR needs to answer? She has gone to them time and time again requesting people not wear strong perfume (it is against their office policy). People stop for a few days but then start again. Does she have any further rights or is HR the last resort? To the affected - Any suggestions that might help her would be much appreciated. To those with jobs - Would you bring it up with those that wear perfumes to the office personally now? Since HR's emails doesn't seem to do much past a few days. Thanks guys.

Not that I ever have but yuck.

Marc just think of Matt Damon in Rounders.

Not right now but cooked the most perfect burger earlier in the evening with some peppers and broccoli on the side. Then sat across mom at the table and watched her pray for my soul as I devoured that awesome burger. Despite being a 90/10 mix it was juicier than many 65/35 burgers I've had in the past. The outside was charred just enough to be a wee bit crispy. The inside was warm and pink. The nicest part - if cost me $4.58 at whole foods thanks to their kickass sales this week.

Everyone would have only bitched about new users though Ryan.

sams club people told me that walmart and sams club didn't do film processing anymore.

Wolf, he has a chair cushion with a 24" subwoofer in it for that.

Giggity Giggity dusty.

I have not but it sounds excellent. Will probably pick it up aug 17th.

Bach and now Mahler. Its making it really hard to shop around and not just gve my money to amazon.

Thanks dinny. I looked at mpix however this was discouraging "Film is scanned at 1228x1818, 72 dpi to create 6.39MB JPEG-format files; full resolution 1228x1818 scans are available for purchase as a DVD Archive" trolling through fredmiranda and random film forums, north coast photo services' name has come up a fair bit. http://www.northcoas....Sheet.2010.pdf $6.95 for better resolution (2048x3072 Pixels) scans. Any reason why mpix would better than ncps that I am missing?

got a roll of black and white ilford iso 400 film from amazon today and took a few pictures with my mom's old minolta af eii rangefinder. it is a fixed 35mm plastic bodied point and shoot camera with a mechanical winder. can't find any info on it online other than it goes for 10 bucks on ebay. anyone have suggestions for where I can send the roll and get reasonable big scans (bigger than 1200x1200) for less than $15? sams club and walmart don't work with film anymore. the local costco doesn't do it not that I have a membership with them anyways. I have contacted 2 local cvs' and walgreens each but neither of them do film processing - they are all just printing services now it seems. I don't mind shipping stuff out and don't want prints. just clean scans to a cd or some ftp server that i can get the files from. i don't have the time to do black and white film processing myself even though it seems pretty straightforward so need some place that I can send the roll to. given that I have no clue if the camera is still functioning properly or not I'd like to get away with the cheapest possible route for now for verification purposes. once I have the negatives I can get it rescanned with a "better" scanner.

wonder what tubes those are. looks cool. are there any similar consumer/mainstream products?

I was just kidding.

All cli gentoo for badass points Carl. Not that you need them but I remember some kids my freshman year running boxes that way and they were the envy of the whole floor. Major need cred.

Happy birthday marshall

Happy birthday birgir

Dinny fredmiranda.com has a lot of good people. Very helpful as well. No articles that I am aware of but if you look at the photo critique section yOu can pick up a lot of stuff from the suggestions people give to others.

Good god that salmon gave me the worst stomach ache ever. Spent the better part of my evening hurling the contents out at both ends. Not a very good post meal experience.

Garlic paste with a home made sauce that my mom makes for chicken but I tried it with salmon tonight. Did not disappoint. Baked at 375 for 15 minutes. Homemade basmati rice from India. Good meal.

Happy birthday sir

Man little monkey has grown up fast.
