Sony A99
hough Sony already had an impressive full-frame camera, the company completely rethought their flagship SLR with the introduction of the Alpha A99. Instead of forging new classic design as the A900 did, the Sony A99 builds on the design of the speedy A77, a more modern look with sloping shoulders and organic curves. As expected, the Sony A99 includes a fullframe version of the company’s Translucent Mirror Technology, using a transparent mirror to reflect a small amount of light up to a phase-detect sensor just beneath the Sony logo. This eliminates the traditional moving mirror, allowing for faster

It also means the A99 uses an electronic viewfinder rather than optical. The kicker is, the Sony A99 doesn’t stop there: it also integrates phase-detect sensors in the

Small-scale tea farmer revenues at record high
What are the health benefits of vegetables?
R
Health benefits of Asparagus
evenues from tea produced and exported by smallscale farmers rose 12 percent to a record 61.4 billion shillings ($723.20 million) in the year to June due to high prices and favourable foreign exchange rates, the Kenya
the world’s top exporter of black tea, said the farmers would receive a payment of 45.3 billion. Revenues from the commodity were at 54.6 billion in the previous year and earned farmers in east Africa’s biggest economy 40.5 billion shillings.
Tea Development Agency said. Lerionka Tiampati, managing director of KTDA, the country’s biggest collective producer, whose members account for about 60 percent of tea output in
“We attribute the impressive results to better tea prices, favourable exchange rates, effective cost management by the tea factories, efficient management and higher tea production,” Tiampati said in a statement seen by Reuters on Wednesday.
The rest of Kenya’s tea is produced by large-scale farmers and corporations. Tiampati said the average net selling price for tea increased to $3.2 per kg over the 2011-2012 season compared to the previous year’s $3.07 while the average exchange rate stood at 89.16 to the dollar compared to the previous year’s 82.79, helping to consolidate earnings. The official said high cost of operations mainly due to expensive energy posed a challenge to the industry. The KTDA is planning to cut energy costs, and is considering building small hydro power stations, Tiampati said. The tea board has said 2012 output was expected to fall to 360 million kg, down from 377 million kg recorded in 2011, mainly due to lower production in the first half of the year.
Textbook cuts hit Longhorn publisher
K
enyan publisher Longhorn said it swung to a pretax loss of 25.9 million shillings ($305,100)
in the year ended June 30th after governments slashed funding for textbooks. The company, which publishes and distributes school books in Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda and Malawi, reported a pretax profit of 213.1 million shillings last year. High inflation and sharp depreciation in the shilling last year had forced the Kenyan government to re-direct funds to other priorities, the company said in a statement On Tuesday.
But falling inflation and stronger economic growth would improve results this year, it added. “These developments should see more textbook funds being released by the government,” the company added. Longhorn, Kenya’s first listed book publisher, began trading on Kenya’s Alternative Investment Market Segment in May. Governments generally accounted for 80 percent of textbook purchases, Longhorn said.

RELATIONSHIPS 101
Ingredients For A Happy Relationship
In romantic relationships, as with so much else, it’s the little things that count. Just as a misspoken word or odd look can throw a couple into a weeks-long feud, small and seemingly insignificant gestures can help keep a relationship on track. A little gift, an off-hand compliment, a moment of physical contact can vastly strengthen a relationship. 1. Tell your partner you love them. Although it’s true that actions speak louder than words, words often speak more clearly than actions.
Take a moment every now and then to verbalize your feelings for your partner. A simple “I love you” or “You mean the world to me” can go a long way towards making your significant other feel wanted, cared for, and secure in your relationship. 2. Show some affection. Small acts of physical intimacy – the hand on the small of the back as you brush by in the hallway, your arm around their shoulder on the sofa, your hand on their thigh when seated side-by-side, holding hands while walking down the street – give your partner a warm feeling and convey the love and affection you feel for them. The littlest touch can be as important, or even more important, than the longest night of sexual intimacy. 3. Show appreciation for your partner. Let your partner know on a

regular basis what it is that you like most about them – what you admire, what makes you proud, what their strengths are in your eyes. Building a romantic relationship isn’t jsut about the initial bonding – it’s about encouraging and supporting each other’s growth over the course of your lives. Help your partner achieve his or her potential by constantly building them up. 4. Share yourself. Don’t keep your likes and dislikes, dreams and fears, achievements and mistakes, or anything else to yourself. If it’s important to you, share it with your partner. More than that, be sure to share more with your partner than you do with anyone else. While there is certainly a need for some personal space in even the closest relationship, give as much of yourself and your time as you can bear to your partner.

How to Change Your Car’s Oil
nless your car’s oil filter and/or oil drain plug is impossible to reach, you can save money by changing your oil and oil filter yourself (your car’s manual should tell you how much oil to get). Start by warming up your engine for 2 or 3 minutes so the gook gets churned up and can flow out of the engine easily. You don’t want the engine so hot that you burn yourself. When it’s slightly warm to the touch, shut off the engine. Then, follow these steps: 1. Look under your car to find the drain plug. The drain plug is a large nut or plug located under the oil pan at the bottom of the engine. If you can’t reach your oil drain plug easily, you’ll have to either crawl under your car to reach it or jack up the car. 2. Push a container under the oil drain plug. You want this container to catch the oil, so make sure it’s big enough. 3. Unscrew the oil drain plug. Protect your hand with a rag or some paper towels, and be ready to move your hand out of the way. The oil now drains out of your engine into the container. 4. Remove the cap from the oil filler hole at the top of your engine and unscrew the oil filter, using a wrench if you can’t do it by hand. To unscrew the filter, twist it counterclockwise. The filter will have oil in it, so be careful not to spill

it when you remove it. If any remnants of the filter’s rubber seal remain on your engine, remove them. 5. Empty the oil from the filter into a drain pan. After the filter is empty, wrap it in newspaper and set it aside to take to a recycling center with your old oil. 6. Open a new bottle of oil and dip a finger into it. Use the oil to moisten the gasket on the top of the new oil filter. 7. Screw the new filter into the engine where the old one was. Follow directions on the filter, or turn it gently by hand until it “seats” and then give it another three-quarter turn. 8.Wipe around the place where the oil drain plug goes. Do this step only after all the oil has drained out. 9. Replace the oil drain plug and use an adjustable wrench to tighten it. If your vehicle uses an oil drain plug gasket, make sure the old one has been removed and lay a new gasket on the pan before you replace the plug. 10. Use a funnel to pour all but 1 quart of the fresh oil into the oil filler hole. Pour slowly to allow the oil time to run down. 11. Replace the oil filler cap and run the engine for 30 to 60 seconds. Check for leaks from the oil drain plug and around
the filter. 12. Shut off the engine and wait 5 to 10 minutes for the oil to settle into the oil pan, and then check the oil level again. Remove the oil dipstick, wipe it with a clean, lintfree rag, and shove it back in. Pull it out again and check it. 13. 13Keep adding oil a little at a time. Check the stick after each addition until you reach the “Full” line on the dipstick. 14. Remove the drain pan from under the vehicle and give the car a test drive. Go around the block a couple of times. 15. Let the oil settle down again for 5 to 10 minutes, then recheck the dipstick. If it’s still at “Full,” you’re good to go! Dispose of the old oil by taking it to an auto parts store or other oil-recycling center
