Back.yard gardeners are using
digital photography for everything
from landscape design to identifying plants.

an area of msect infestation, you
can take a picture of it and e-mail
it to somebody - a county agent
or entomologist." said Alan

Nature Lovers" (Timber Press,
2008).
"Instead of shipping an actual

there. you can get somebody to
look. at the image and diagnose the
problem in real time."
And you don't have to pony up
a big wad of cash to get staned.

Gardeners learn quickly that ·a fascinating world performs freely at their feet - a miniature world of dewdrops
clinging to flower p)!t~ls; ornate . one-of-a-kind snowflakes
building into drifts; or the pollen-coated legs of honeybees
foraging among the flowers . . ·
What can make, these images even more appealing is
using a macro lens on a camera to document and share them.
" Macro photography is the visual portal to a world most
people walk by without a glance," says Alan Detrick in his
book, "Macro Photography for Gardeners and Nature
Lovers" (Timber Press, 2008). "Plants, animals and parts of
plants and animals never before imagined enter the camera's' viewfinder" ~ and all in the backyard. or perhaps a
neighborhood park.
Most point-and-shoot cameras have the macro mode built in.
"That allows you to focus on a subject as close as onehalf to 1 inch in front of the camera lens," says Ian Adams,
who wrote "The Art of Garden Photography" (Timber
Press, 2005) .
.
. "I strongly recommend a macro lens for plant portraiture."
That generally means stepping up to a digital single lens
reflex camera (0-SLR), which is designed for interchangeable lenses, including the general purpose macro series.
· "Get the longest (inacro lens) you can afford because
· they generally give you better results," Adams says.
The shorter lenses are a good choice if you're looking for
a pollinator's-eye view of particular blooms or want to
belly up to some low-lying Alpine plants. But they require
working at close range - often too close when trying to
incorporate skittish insects or birds among the flowers .
" If you're photographing a timber rattler and don't want
to get bitten, it's goo&lt;! to be 3 or 4 feet away," Adams says.
"If you're photographi'!g l'lutterflies, which startle easily,
it's nice to be able to step . back and still have that macro
capability."
A tripod is probably the most important accessory for
garden photographers to carry, Adams says. " It stabilizes
the camera for sharper pictures. It gives you more flexibility for slow shutter speeds and large f-stops for deeper
depth of field. You can look more deeply at the composiHon
itself. You can't see it all ,~hat well while hand-holding."

Quick tapping of unspent
$350 billion in works
•

BY ANDREW TAYLOR AND PHIUP ELUon
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITERS

•

· WASHINGTON - Senate Democrats prepan;d Sunday
to answer a request for lhe remaining $350 billion in financial industry bailoul funds as the Bush administration and
. President-elect Obama undertook a tag-team effort to
.obtain the money from reluctant lawmakers.
A vote in Congress is likely as early as this week, several senators predicted after receiving a rare Sunday briefing
from top Obama economic adviser Larry Summers on the
Wall Street bailout. as well as on Obama 's separate $800
billion-or-so economic recovery plan.
: President Bush would request the additional money for
. the Troubled ' Asset Relief Program, or TARP, but the
incoming administration would make the case fur it by laying out a series of changes in how the program is run. More
of the money would go directly to relieve homeowners
threatened with foreclosure , said Senate Banking
Committee Chairman Christopher Dodd, D-Conn. A fuller
accounting of the money already spent is needed as well,
.
'.Dodd said.
"Larry Summers made a very strong argument for why
it's important and critical for the overall recovery," said
Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass. "And I think that's an argument
that most senators understand ."
.
Summers sought to. win over Senate Democrats even as
the GOP leader of ihe . House, John Boehner of Ohio,'
warned that any effort to release the additional money
would "be a pretty tough sell." Boehner appeared on CBS'
"Face The Nation.''
A request would force a vote within days on whether to
block the funding, but the deck is stacked in favor of Bush
and Obama winning release of the remaining $350 billion.
Congress can pass a resolution disapproving the request,
but the White House could veto the resolution; then, just
one-third of either chamber would be needed to uphold the
veto and win release of the money. Senate leaders would
prefer to win a majority vote, Dodd said.
The idea is to make the money available to .the new
administration shortly after Obama takes office Jan. 20.
The unpopular bailout has featured unconditional infusions
of money into financial institutions that have done little to
reveal what they've done with it. .
.
.
Treasury Sec~etary Henry Paulson ~riginally promised
the money would be used to buy up 1ox1c mortgage-related
securities whose falling values havedosged bp.credit markets and brought many financial institutions to the brink of
failure.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid indicated Sunday that
Bush and Obama officials are near agreement on !Aibmitting
notice to Conllress about using the remaining $350 billion.
"We're wa1ting to hear from President Bush and or
President-elect Obama as to what,. if anything, they're
going to do," said Reid, D-Nev., "and that's occurring as
we spe ak .
.
.
"The likelihood is that we'll have some kind of vote on
that somewhere in the course of the week," Kerry said.
But to prevail, Obama and his team must soothe senators
who feel burned by the way the Bush administration has
used the TARP.
"The (incoming) administration ... is ~oing to fundamen'tally alter how this is being managed,' Dodd said. "The
concept is still very sound and solid ·and it is needed. But
it's not going to pass around here unless there's a strong
commitment to foreclosure mitigation."
Dodd said lawmakers were demanding other conditions,
such as more concrete steps to limit executive compensation and make recipients of the funds be 'more accountable.
The Congressional Oversi'ght Panel raised detailed questions last week about how banks are spending the first $350
. billion , how.the money will combat the rising tide of home
Joreclosures and Trei}sury's overall strategy for the rescue.
·In instance after instance , the panel said. the Treasury
Department did not offer adequate responses.
In an interview aired Sunday on ABC 's "This Week ,"
Obama said he has. asked his economic team to develop a
set of principles to ·ensure more openness about how the
money is spent: l,Jnder consideration by Obama aides and
congressional Democrats are proposals to limit executive
pay at institutions that receive the money and to force such
mstitutions to get rid of any private aircraft they may own
or lease .
"I think that when you look at how we have handled the
home foreclosure ·siluation and whether we've done
.enough in terms of helping families on the ground who may
,have lost their homes because they lost their jobs or
:because they got sick. we haven't done enough there."
Obama said.
Work continued through the weekend on Obama's economic recovery plan, which features aid to cash-~trapped
state governments. $500-$1,000 tax cuts for most workers and working couples, and a huge spending package
blending old-fashioned public works projects with aid to
the poor and unemployed and a variety of other initiatives . ,
·
·
Advocales for using tax cuts to promote alternative energy won concessions and the Obama team promised to make
a $3,000 job creation tax credit - which has attracted considerable criticism - more workable .
Meanwhile . transition officials were resisting efforts to
use the economic recovery bill to address the alternative
minimum tax, which has affected more and more middleincome families.

First US cot1nt finds 1 in
200 kids are vegetarian
BY MIKE SloaaE
AP MEDICAL WRITER

Sam Silverman is co,captain of his high school football team - a safety accustomed -to bruising collisions. But that's nothing
compared with the abuse he
gets for being a vegetarian.
"I get a lot of flak for it in
the locker room," said the
16-year-old
junior at
Westborough High School
in Massachusetts.
"All the time. my friends
try to get me to eat meat and
tell me how good it tastes
and how much bigger I
would be." said Silverman,
who is S-foot-10 and 170
pounds. "But for me. there's
no real temptation."
Silverman may feel like a
vegetable vendor at a
butchers' convention, but
about 367,000 other kids
are in the same boat,
according to a recent study
that prov.ides the government's first estimate of how
many children avoid meat.
That's about I in 200.
Other surveys suggest the
rate could be four to six
times that among older
teens who have more control over what they eat than
young children do.
Vegetarian diets exclude
meat, but the name is sometimes loosely worn. -Some
self-described vegetarians
eat fish ot poultry on occasion, while others - called
vegans - cut ·out animal
products of any kind.

products.

YouTube animal slaughter
videos that shock the developing sensibilities of many
U.S. children. But there
isn't enough long-term data
to prove that; according to
government researchers.
The new estimate of
young ~egetarians.. comes
from a recent federal
Centers for Disease Control
and PJ:eventio~ _study of
alternauve med1cme based
on a survey of thousands ·o f
Americans
in
2007.
Information on children's
diet habits was gleaned from
about 9,000 parents and
other adults speaking on the
behalf of those under 18.
"I don't think we've done
a good job of counting the
number of vegetarian youth,
but. I think this is reasonable," Amy Lanou, a nutrition scientist at the
University
of
North
Carolina-Asheville, said of
the government estimate.
She works with the

send an angry leiter to
PETA. But the vegan diet
is working out, and now
her mother is taking steps
to become a vegetarian,
too, said Nightingale, an
eighth-grader.
·
She bejj.evci,her experience was typtcal for a preadolescent vegetarian. "A
lot more kids are using the
Internet. They're curious
about stuff and trying to
become independent and
they're trying to find Q,Ut
who they are," she said.
Vegetarians are most
often female, from higher-

income families and living
on the· East or West coasts,
according to previous ~ttid­
ies. One good place to find
teen vegetarians is Agnes
Scott College, a mostly
white. all-women's private
school in suburban Atlanta
with about 850 students.
Roughly S to 10 percent of
Agnes Scolt students eat
vegetarian, said Pete Miller.
the college's director of
food service.
·
Frequently, the most popular entree at the college
dining hall is a fresh mozzarella sandwich with
organic greens. And the
comment board (called "the
Beef Board," as in· "what's
your beef?") often contains
plaudits for vegetarian dishes or requests for more.
"They're very vocal," Miller
said of his vegetarian diners.
Eating vegetarian.·can be
very healthy - nutritionists
often push kids to e~t more
fruits · and vegetables; of
course. For growing children, however, it's imJ?Ortant to get sufficient
amounts of protein, vitamins
B 12 and D, iron, calcium
and other important nutrients that most people get
from meat, eggs and dairy.
Also, vegetarian diets are
not necessarily slimming.
Some vegetarian kids cut
out meat hut fill up o·n
doughnuis, french fries ,
soda or potato chips ,
exp,erts said.
·
' Vegetarian doesn't mean
low-calorie," said Dr.
Christopher Bolling, who
directs weight management
research at Cincinnati
Children's Hospital Medical

Center.- He said roughly 10
to 15 perceQt of the overweight kids who come to
his medical center's weight
loss program have tried a
ve~etarian diet at some
pomt before starting the
program. ·
Rayna Middlebrooks, IS,
last year started a . weightloss program offered by
Children's Healthcare of
Atlanta, a nonprofit hospital
organization. She said she's
-been on a vegetarian diet for
fo_ur years and now carries
about 2'50 pounds on her 5foot-3 inch frame.
I-ter motheE confirmed
that, and said that although
Rayna does a great job of
cooking vegetable-rich stirfried meals for herself, the
girl also loves pasta. soda
and sweets. "I have to watch
her with the candy;" said
Barbara Middlebrooks, of
Decatur.

. Silverman, the Boston-area
football player. He's pleased
with his health and has no
problem sticking to his diet.
Rather than try to negotiate
the school cafeteria line, he
brings his lunch to school.
It's the same lunch every
day - rye bread, some
chicken-like tofu, cheese, a

Trip to hospitalatfirst sign of
heart attack can be lifesaver
Question: A friend of mine recently died of a heart
attack. His wife told me that the doctor told her that-if he'd
been taken tQ the emergency room when he first noticed
symptoms of a heart attack, he probably would have lived.
Can you tell me what kind.of symptoms he was talking
about? When should you go to the hospital to be checked
out for a possible heart attack?
·
Answer: This is very good question_because many lives
can be saved with prompt action when a person is having a
heart attack, or myocardial infarction in doctor lingo. The
key is to kl'low the warning signs.
.
·
Heart attacks don't cause the same symptoms in everybody,
but most people experience a feeling of pressure, fullness; or
squeezing in the center of the chest. The pain may radiate
across the chest to the shoulders, neck. arms, jaw or stomach.
Some people feel lishtheaded. nauseous and weak, or
experience shortness of breath. The older you are, the more
subtle the symptoms may be. In people over 70, the only
sign may be a decrease. in alertness.
As a general rule, chest pain and discomfort is the most common heart attack symptom in both mim and women .
However; women are more likely to experience some of the
other common symptoms like shortness of breath, nausea
and vomiting , as well back or jaw pain.
Many people who experience these warning signs attribute
them to a simple case of !:teartburn or indigestion. They may
take a "wait and see" attitude, waiting hours to see if the
symptoms will go away by themselves . As the time ticks
away, they will have a smaller.and smaller chance of survival, if they are. indeed , actually having a heart attack .
If a heart attack is tremed within the first 60 minutes, the
chances of survival improve signiticantly. However, half of
all heart attack ~ufferers wait more than two hours before
gettin~ help. This is probably what happened to your
friend s husband . unfortunately.
·
If you experience the warning sil?-ns of a heart attack, you
should wait no longer than two mmutes to see if they subside. If they don't. call 9-1-1 right away: Tell the operator
that you think you:re having a heal;! attack and need to get
to the hospitaL
Loosen restrictive or uncomfortable clothing. It's also a
good idea to take an aspirin tablet while you're waiting for
the ambulance , because aspirin can help restore blood flow
through a blocked artery. If you do this, make sure you tell
the paramedics and the ER doctor that you've taken aspirin.
Don't worry that your symptoms might be a false alarm.
Ambulance crews and ER do~tors are used to seeing people who think they're having heart attacks but really
aren't. Believe me , doctors who work in hospital emergency departments would much rather examine a "false
alarm" than hear that another person died because he or
she dido 't want to go to the hospital.

Fittingly

the
Pittsburgh Steelers brought
back the home-field advantage to the NFL playoffs.
Now they get . to stay at

rival they dislike more than
any other.
The team with the NFL's
best home-field record since
the 1970 NFL merger shook
off a 7-0 deficit barely two
minutes into the game , controlled pint-sized playmaker
Darren Sproles and returned
some normalcy to the NFL

favored Titans . Panthers and
playoff football game Sunday in Pittsburgh.

Giants cotildn 't do by winning at home. It was the first
time since 1971 that three
road teams won during a single playoff weekend, and the
Steelers made certain that
road teams didn'l'go 4-for-4..
The Steelers had the worst
offense of any playoff team
coming in, only to put up 35
points to support the NFL's
top-ranked defense. Now,
it's tim~ for Ravens vs.

- the third and most
intriguing m~tchup this season between the can't -standeach other AFC North rivals .
. "What else would you

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin
said. "It would be big if it
was a scrimmage. This is .for
the AFC championship."
Pittsburgh won the earlier
two games. 23-20 in overtime in Pittsburgh - when
the Ravens supposedly put
bounties on several Steelers
players - and by 13-9 durmg the Dec. 14 rematch in

Brett Keisel said. "It's going

games were two of the

the dislike.
There was much to like for
the Steelers in this· ·one as
they made certain that the
