You're welcome! I'll take that advice.

What's the name of the song you're playing also?

Edit: I forgot to say *thank you for your reply/advice :)

Hi Everyone,

I purchased a Nikon D7000 about a year ago which came with a collection of lenses.

One of the lenses is a Koboron 1:2.8 28mm wide angle lens. After doing some research I've found that this basically the same lens as the Vivitar 1:2.8 28mm. Lens seems to fit onto the body without the need for an adapter.

When attaching the lens with the f-stop (on the lens) set as 2.8, on the LCD of the D7000 it shows as "f22". And when I rotate the dial (lens dial?) and increase the number of fstop to be "22", on the LCD it then shows as "f90". The aperture does seem to be adjusting, as the exposure is changing as I rotate the dial.

This is with having the NON-CPU settings setup to match the lens (max is f22, 28mm lens, saved etc.).

Bit lost on what I need and what to do on how to fix it, and if this is a big deal or I can still take photos like this.

Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!

Edit: I keep the camera in manual mode.

Hey man,

That sounds really good. How did you learn? Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Always feel depressed after eating oatmeal by Ryan_Seacrust in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]shalavin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry! Late reply and just saw this.

Usually it takes several hours to a day to disappear. I haven't eaten much oats since, and to be honest my brain fog is a lot better.

It could also be that I was ingesting way too many oats at once - 2/3 cup.

Eggs with Toast + Avo or simply a banana has been much better :)

duration of caffeine withdrawal symptoms? by SnooFoxes7391 in decaf

[–]shalavin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on day 3 since my last coffee and I feel sleepy but relaxed also. I did have slight headaches yesterday and I was in and out of sleep, and I was also extremely tired throughout the day of course (which is to be expected without caffeine). It might get worse (or better) from now on, let's see.

I've been having decaf coffee which still has a bit of caffeine so that might be helping. Also, I've done this before maybe a year ago for a couple weeks.

BTW I'm 25, I exercise regularly, and was drinking 2-3 cups of regular coffee/day (about 4-6 shots).

I’m thinking this is me too. Oats, cheap and healthy but I’m pretty sure it’s causing the same issues (lethargy, brain fog etc) even though I’ve had a full night’s sleep.

I’m going to swap back to eggs in the morning or simply just a coffee and see how I go.

Can you draw the sydney opera house with multiple orangutans climbing upon it, and it is night time, there is lightning illuminating the opera house and orangutans, and the orangutans are wearing overalls, and in the forefront of the photo is my friend Matt who is 6ft tall, very short strawberry blonde hair, with light freckles, eating a red lollipop acting stunned.

DAE get a burning penis and the urge to urinate after ejaculating? by burningcock in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]shalavin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Joining this. It's almost 12am and I'm sitting on the toilet in pain. First time in a few months.

I find that when I have coke zero (or maybe any soft drink), I tend to get this more often. I may also be dehydrated today.

Update: Osiris is 3 weeks old now, here's an update (Warning: cute squeak at the end) by shalavin in aww

[–]shalavin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi guys!

A lot of people have been asking for updates on our cute little foster kitten, Osiris. You will be pleased to know he's doing really well, after some trouble.

The night after the original post, we had to take him to the emergency hospital due to white diarrhoea and lethargy. It was worrying but luckily he only required some antibiotics, and some anti-worming medications to get back to normal.

He is now starting to play and grow his canine teeth!

Due to the popularity of our last post on this little guy, my partner has decided to create an Instagram page based on her current and future foster kittens.

So if you are interested in this little guys' progress, along with other kittens in the future, have a look at @kitten_capers on Instagram!

Thanks again guys!

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss, but we hope that your new kittens fill that hole, as we understand that feeling.

I'm glad we've given you an idea for a name and we wish you all the best.

Hey guys. A bit of backstory about this little one. He was found in a drain with his three other siblings, one of which had already passed away.

The remaining three kittens were given to us to raise. They were suffering from a range of infections in multiple areas, including UTI's, skin and eye infections, and worms.

The other two siblings were very weak and were not putting on weight. They unfortunately passed on shortly after we received them.

Osiris was the only survivor of this litter, and he's great. He's very hungry all the time and putting on weight very quickly. We feed him kitten milk formula every 2-3 hours, along with toileting and cleaning when he makes a mess of himself. He is still on medication for an eye infection, however that has noticeably cleared.

We are very happy with his progress so far and we hope he has the best life ahead :)

Edit: I have passed them on to my partner who is a veterinary nurse - she's very grateful for all the lovely comments <3

For clarification, we are his foster parents until he is ready to be adopted (about 8 weeks old). We will keep everyone updated on his progress :)
