The whole reason for transferring the 8mm films to digital format was to preserve our family history and memories, you can't put a value on such items because they are inherently priceless. After finely getting a transfer procedure and process that work for me at home, I decided that I need to transfer a number of films in the highest possible resolution and quality available. This led me to commercial transfer companies; the qualifier for this quality of course is "what I can afford." Economics play a large roll, you must balance what you can afford -vs- the number of films you need to have transferred. For me this turned out to be one 300 foot reel and a 50 foot reel; these I deteremend were the most valuable to me. I spent vast hours researching companies who did transfers first looking to local companies who offered these services. Even Costco offers transfer service but it was no better than what I could do at home, they simply transfer the film by shooting it in to a condenser box then to a digital video camera (CCD), one of the same processes I tried myself. Eventually I had gone though all of the local resources which ether would not tell me how they transferred, transferred the same way I did at home or were priced why outside what I could afford. After about two weeks of canvassing the internet looking for a company I could trust with films that are irreplaceable. I settled on a company called GotMemories (www.gotmemories ) I could not be more pleased with my decision to go with GotMemories as my choice; I could not be happier with the transfer quality and the care that was given to me and my film by their staff . I would most definitely use them again and can, without hesitation recommend their services to anyone looking for a quality transfer company. It is not often that you will find a company who cares about making sure you the customer is 100% satisfied. Phil the owner personally called me to help me when I had questions, but more importantly Phill's wonderful staff at GotMemories called me at each step of the process! When they received my film FedEX they called me to let me know they got there safe, they called me post process to let me know the completed the transfer and they called me after I received my films and DVD's from them FedEX; where are you going to find that kind of service? Here is a sample of the results GotMemroies -vs- home transfer. Although the home method is acceptable, the GotMemories is just 100% better. www.youtube. com/watch?v=KM3yRwA5wUk Check out the whole story on my blog at; h t t p : // usabaker.wordpress. com/2010/04/28/transferring-8mm-film-to-digital-format-dvd/ ...read more

One of the few retail stores in the greater Scottsdale/Tempe/Mesa area that actually stocks and sells the highly regarded Brave Soldier product line, which is what led me to visit this shoppe. Cyclists, athletes and tradespeople should make note of that fact as the product line is rather difficult to find on a local, walk-in basis out here.\t\n\t\nCo-owners Angie and Mary Lou are clearly enigmas in this day and age of increasingly stressed-out and brusque retail store owners and sales help. They're refreshingly cheerful, smiling, attentive, pleasant, engaging and eager to be of help. Neither lady is afraid or reluctant to make eye contact and actually converse with customers as they help.\t\n\t\nThe store itself is an interesting melange of clothing, jewelry, curio, bric a brac, tchotchkes, home decor and good old fashioned kitsch that is sure to delight even the most persnickety of browsers. It's located in a large, easy to access shopping plaza on Warner with plenty of parking that's convenient to both Loop 101 and McClintock. ...read more

Sahara Middle Eastern Restaurant, NE corner of Southern&McClintock in Tempe (480) 966-1971 It's all good, but the Lamb Kuzi (marinated roasted lamb shank over a bed of rice, nuts and raisins) is the best. Other middle eastern restaurants in the area also serve roasted lamb dishes, but none comes close to Sahara's. The same is true for their rice pudding which has a flavor that floats above all others. Gayle and I were so glad to have found them again after a year's absence. ...read more
