installed the 1.9.7 free version of the plugin and thumbnail is no displayed, displays No Thumb image.
installed the 1.9.7 free version of the plugin and thumbnail is no displayed, displays No Thumb image.
Reverting back to version 1.9.5 of the same plugin, I have same problem with 1.9.6 and 1.9.7, thumbnail is not displayed.. running on Apache Godaddy server, wordpress 3.4.2
You have to make the plugin cache folder writable (775 or 777), and your images must be on the same domain of the website. Also, please try to set a featured image and see if that works though.
I have set the plugin cache folder to 777 and images are in my same domain.
But from the error displayed I thing the path to the image is wrong.
image path displayed in the error msg is this
but from what I see its completely missing the folder where wordpress is installed
it should be
I was expecting some solution form Luca, I proposed a solution, that was deleted, I am still waiting for an answer from Luca.
I think there must be some problem with the database.. strage..
Have you tried to completely uninstall the plugin (via the plugins panel) and re-install it from scratch?
I have tried all the ways I reinstalled it from scratch, I did fresh installation of wordpress and nothing works.
I am on Godaddy the structure of domains is bit different and I think thats the problem
primary doamin will be in public_html folder - so wordpress installed on primary domain will have dir structures like this
but other domains will be in folders within the primary domain
so if I have wordpress installed in domain1
the dir structure would be
but the domain will be accessed normally http://domain1.com/
I think thats the problem, but my getcwd() method works for me..
moreover my path starts like /home/content/....
but the plugin returns path like /var/root/home/....
there is no /var/root in my hosting..
Yes, that's the problem. The plugin requires to fetch full disk path of the images in order to process them properly. Being on this "strange" configuration it leads to this issue.

If nanotech is so 'hot,' where are all the jobs?
Last December, when President Bush signed the 21st Century Nanotechnology Research and Development Act into law, he authorized $3.7 billion in funding to nanotechnology research and development over the next four years. So where there's money, the jobs usually follow, right? Well, it's too soon to tell. Nanotech is still in the R&D stages, and hiring is being done at a conservative pace, mainly through personal networks of the founders and management teams.

I obtained a Master's Degree in Early Childhood Education while working as a Juvenile Probation Officer. My Bachelor's Degree is in Criminal Justice with a concentration in Forensic Investigations and a minor in Corrections.
Unfortunately, in some classroom situations, there are students that end up falling through the cracks when a teacher is not able to give them the one-on-one attention they need, and the opportunity to tap in to their learning style that would allow them to be more successful. One-on-one tutoring should provide a child with their individual learning style to help them better succeed. I have been on the curriculum development team with my district for the last four of the five years I have been employed with them, and enjoy tapping into new and unique ways of engaging our children and helping them become better learners.
I would enjoy the opportunity to help students in any manner of ways to include reading, grammar, spelling, language arts, social studies, and even study skills. I am willing to help middle school mostly, but am willing to help any level from middle school and higher learn better study and organization skills and writing skills.

Skip to comments.Mark Levin grills Newt Gingrich on his comments about Paul Ryans plan
Posted on 05/16/2011 6:06:53 PM PDT by Virginia Ridgerunner
click here to read article
That sort of thing screws up some guys. Others pine for it don't they.
Well, anyway, we'd probably fired her these days ~ or maybe even punished her with prison time.
The Democrats imagine her to be a feminist hero. That was his first wife ~
More like displaced Souvrn' (California) Democrats ya know!.
He seems to play both sides.
But I think Michelle Malkin was right, Newt sat too long on the loveseat with Pelosi...
Levin's interview was one of the best I've ever heard.
Kudos to him!

Levin's interview was one of the best I've ever heard.
Kudos to him!
It was the passion in me. ;o)
No, there was no listed author, but it was Mark's audio, and so that's why I wrote him in as author. Probably should have just listed Right Scoop. Oh well.
Or, perhaps it is an attempt to clarify what he actually proposes. Has anyone actually looked at the website that he mentioned with where he says his positions are?
The fact is that there is no fix for the whole extra-Constitutional income redistribution scheme - the revered Socialist Security. But NO ONE has the guts to say that out loud.
But, we are very good at forming the CCFS
Circular Conservative Firing Squad.
I say, give him a chance to right his ship - lay out his real plans and STOP letting sound bites drive the debates and select our candidates.
Well I don't know if anybody's still reading this thread but let me say thank you for providing this.
Further, I think you, and your thread buddy who mentioned the same incident, are absolutely right.
While I don't recall this specific incident, I sure do remember the Democrat ploy of making the pubs the enemies of the elderly and back then, and I dunno, maybe even now, it WORKED!
Though I'd like to think we're a more sophisticated people now.
Yeah, I think Newt was determined to nip any suggestion in the bud that he was in any way in favor of cutting/reducing Medicare.
Only heh, the American people WANT something done with Medicare. Because today, the elderly are more afraid Medicare's going to die from lack of planning/care by the gubmint...ie those charged with overseeing and funding it...than any mythical stoppage by a political party.
Newt....a day late and a dollar short.
Remember, if you see somebody saying something you take to be decidedly NON Conservative, or at least inconsistent with our current theological underpinnings, and there's a Leftwingtard in the midst, that's where your attention should go first.
Why was Newt bowing low before the evil NBC/DNC/SOROS toady?
That right there should have been enough to tank his candidacy ~ but you have these people all caught up in breaking balls over the bifocus of the clavical.
Remember, Newt has friends who let him down by sending him on his way to his doom ~ we certainly don't want them advising in any campaigns where we have an interest do we?
So, who are the Doufouses he employed?
Got Names?
It has, so to speak, festered, and now you have Democrats proposing to just whack it and kill the elderly ~ only solution they can imagine.
They are so terribly uncreative.
No way he wins the primary...
As an academic I'm afraid that I must agree with you!!
Voters have had it with the BS, from all sides.
Levin was making the point we have elections, representatives, town halls, letters/calls/emails/faxes/tweets/facebook posts, and asking why we need the extra process Newt is talking about. This was a softball!
Newt wants to more directly involve the American People in large entitlement reforms. That's fine: it's the only way the press is forced to provide "equal time" rather than adopt the Democrat's demagoguery wholesale or giving that party cover to oppose any necessary reform. I can't believe Newt couldn't articulate a cohesive answer.
Newt is trying his hand at a bit of centrist populism: I'll involve you, not just tell you how it's going to be like Obama or (stereotyped) extremist Republicans. Newt obviously wants to sound inclusive and non-threatening to "independents" and disaffected Democrats but in doing so he sounds indecisive and confused.
Clearly Newt sees passing the Ryan plan outright as "right-wing social engineering" because it'd be done by the usual dysfunctional constitutional process of representative government. Again, Newt failed on articulating his message which is to involve more Americans in entitlement reform, not just the lobbyists and partisan extremists in Washington.
The problem is Newt sounded weak, like a mushy parliamentarian with no defined message and no alternative plan. It was embarrassing.
He offered no time table (now, campaign cycle, post-election), no list of participants (congress, president, candidates, who?). This was a SOFTBALL.
He failed to articulate his case. I ended up almost feeling bad for him!
Pared to the bone, he's not necessarily wrong on process, but he's inept in articulating why and THAT is not presidential material.
Oh, by the way, how do you propose we get rid of Gaygory?
Vote against him in the next election or something?
And, he delivered the George Soros sponsored "confuse Gingrich" question so well
Later comments from Gingrich showed he wasn't confused at all. He revised and extended his remarks.
There was NO THERE THERE.
Now, how to get rid of Gregory ~ you can complain of course.
Better yet, we have wordsmiths ~ they could certainly wrap Gregory's racist insult around the implication that "Gregory suggested that only black people get foodstamps" ~ Olberdork is outta MSNBC even and he had been a perfect match for them. Then, there was "Special Ed" Schulz. Gregory is just another of the same kind, paid higher maybe, and on broadcast, not just cable ~ but I think we could do it.
If so, it's only because the Right is full of paranoids bent on sawing off the limb they're standing on.
He took the very American position: imposition of entitlement reform is bad when done by decree whether from the Left or Right. No statist central planning. No monarchy. Just good old fashion American debate, dialog, brainstorming and ultimately accomplishment.
Even before any ideas are put on the table, Newt's clear problem is in articulation. Maybe he's too out of practice to play on the field, too gun shy after the 90s battles and too much a legislator to make a president.
I thought he could add to the debate, now I'm not sure he won't hurt it.
Nonetheless, it gives lie to your thesis that Gaygory somehow 'confused and befuddled' Newt.
Olbermann killed his own career -- only on the surface was it about his comments. In reality, insiders tell me that it was because he was an insufferable prick in real life. Shultz nearly lost out for the same reason, but he barely hung on.
Gaygory should be removed, but it isn't up to us. I'd be willing to try, but I wouldn't hold your breath for results.
They really have to be dealt with separately else you run the risk of categorizing a number of formerly private, but now government controlled pension plans as welfare, and that's just a start.
The fact folks believe they paid FICA for some reason is another hurdle for reformers ~ to date an unsurmountable hurdle. Medicare carries some of that burden as well.
You'll notice the old tax cheat Geithner turned first to ripping off the federal employee pension system to cover his cost overruns. The law allows that and it's been done before ~ and by Republicans ~ but on the drawdown side, when those federal employees get their pensions, most of them would need to live to 200 years of age before they needed to tap into anything but their own deposits and the interest they earned over time.
No, retired government employees don't live that long, so they never get those agency matching funds also required by law.
Geithner knows this, but he has the natural inclinations of a street thug so he just steals it.
The Obamista Regime has no intention of reducing the deficit, nor of paying back the borrowings from the federal employee retirement funds ~ and a lot of you sit around laughing sayng "See, let those federal employees suffer" but what are you going to do when this same Geithner comes around and tells you "Well,we tapped out the federales so you are next" and he begins looting private pensions, and 401 (k) plans, and IRA accounts, and savings accounts, and even checking accounts?
That's what's coming.
Lots of our money has already been shipped overseas to Geithner's buddies in European banks. It isn't coming back. He has no intention of paying for it.
Of course oberdork was pretty obnoxious anyway, but there you have it. The method does work.
Again, Gregory's question was well thought out and it did befuddle Gingrich. It's not Gingrich's answer that's a problem ~ it's that he was easily befuddled. And, as usual, Gregory's question befuddled a number of people here.
I was not befuddled about Newt's problems. Been trying to figure out why he would even try to run for President. I hit that issue with him and "The Huck" over a year ago. Huck wasn't running ~ but there are people who want him to.
Hey, I want Ruthy and Sotomayor OFF THE COURT FOR HEALTH REASONS. Let 'em hang on until the next Republican takes office ~ but it's ridiculous to have a Supreme Court justice who can't walk across the marble floors without breaking her ankle ~ she has a brittle bone condition from 45+ years of insulin injection. Time for her to go. Same with Ruthy.
So, you have to ask yourself, is it better to try an impeachment to see if we can get a Democrat run Senate to convict Obama, and end up with Joe Biden as President, or should we simply hold out for wholesale removal of all the Democrats?
And to give seniors "more choices". How inane is that? Seniors would choose the plan that gave them the most benefits at the least cost to them. How does that solve our crisis?
And to give seniors "more choices". How inane is that? Seniors would choose the plan that gave them the most benefits at the least cost to them. How does that solve our crisis?
Newt, like a lot of long-time career politicians, has simply not caught up with the fact that the Democrat network newsrooms and big city newspapers no longer hold a monopoly on the selection, spin, and dissemination of the daily news.
As the Great One would say, "Thank me very much!"
I do get the impression that Newt is jealous of Ryan.
Newt spent many years thinking about how to change health care. He may have thought that it would be his resurrection. Then Ryan gets all the attention because Ryan is in the game and Newt is in the audience.
I listened to the Mark Levin interview and he had a great point, "What the Hell are you talking about "We need a national conversation and shouldn't have the Ryan plan shoved down our throats." Newt had no good answer. It then occurred to me that the only one NOT in the conversation is Newt.
Tonight Sarah Palin reiterated my position ~ which all of you have heard several times over the last few days ~ that we should be more concerned with David Gregory's vicious game than in attacking Newt Gingrich.
I'm not sure why you directed the post to me so I looked up the page.
"I was not befuddled about Newt's problems. Been trying to figure out why he would even try to run for President."
Newt likes to hear himself talk almost as much as he likes to see the expressions of wonderment on the face whoever is listening to him.

SDCC: Marvel: Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends Panel
Comic Books
"Should Batman kill the Joker?" is a perennial favorite among superhero fan conversation topics, always leading to a variety of different answers. A Golden Age appearance aside, Batman's bosses at DC Comics have always answered the question the same way, however: Hell no.
Part of the reason for that is practical. You don't kill off a popular, money-making character (well, you can now and then if it will make more money, but then you have to bring the character back to life somehow). Part of it is smart franchise management. If Batman kills off his enemies, then he runs out of guys to fight awfully quickly. There's a reason Spider-Man has such a big and colorful rogue's gallery to fill movies, cartoon and toy lines with, while The Punisher doesn't. But a big part of it has to do with Batman's characterization. Maybe it doesn't make sense to not kill a mass-murderer you find yourself in deadly combat with on a bi-monthly basis, and sure, it makes even less sense to go out of your way to save the life of said mass-murderer as Batman regularly does for The Joker and his other foes, but then, dressing up as a bat to fight crime doesn't make much sense either—Batman's weird, and that's what makes him so appealing. Of course his moral code is weird too.
The red, un-crossable line Batman has drawn between beating someone within an inch of their life and actually killing them is one shared by most superheroes. The hero pushed to the limit finally getting the villain at their mercy at the climax and forced to decide whether or not to end the villain's life of evil once and for all is a staple of super-comics.
And it hasn't changed all that much in the years since, say, "The Trial of The Flash." Particularly in the DC Universe (The Marvel heroes embraced killing foes en masse during 2008's Secret Invasion, in which they went to war with the alien Skrulls).
Following yesterday's Twitter-thon of artwork from DC's "New 52″ titles, several more tweets featuring various pages from various books hit today — including another puzzle by David Macho that revealed the above Grifter art by CAFU.
Follow the hash tag #52splash for more, or check out additional pieces after the jump.
Although it seems like DC's big relaunch announcement came out an eternity ago, it actually took the publisher less than two weeks to roll out the 52 titles and their creative teams for the big relaunch/reboot/overhaul coming in September. Now that the cats are out of their respective bags, I thought I'd see where various creators and characters will land after the reboot.
So I went back through DC's August solicitations to see who was writing or drawing what, and tried to map everyone to their post-relaunch project — if they had one. However, looking at DC's August solicitations, there seem to be several fill-in issues, so where appropriate I tried to map the most recent ongoing creative teams to their new projects (for instance, I consider Gail Simone and Jesus Saiz the regular creative team for Birds of Prey, even if they aren't doing the last two issues before September hits). Keep in mind that I just went through the ongoing series and skipped over all the miniseries … of which there are a lot, what with Flashpoint winding up in August.
It's also worth noting that although several creators didn't appear in the "big 52″ announcements, that doesn't mean their tenure with DC is necessarily over — some, like Frazer Irving, have said they have future projects that haven't been announced. So I tried to note where creators have talked publicly about their post-relaunch plans with DC (or lack thereof, as the case may be). The same could probably be said for some of DC's characters as well. Or, as Gail Simone said on Twitter: "Again, September is NOT THE END. There's still plans for characters that we haven't seen yet."
So let's get to it ….

Digital comics | David Brothers wonders how the rise of digital comics might change comics "culture," and the Wednesday ritual. [4thletter!]
Yesterday the eighth and final issue of Geoff Johns and Ivan Reis's hit event comic Blackest Night came out, and DC has been celebrating its successful conclusion (how about that fold-out spread, huh???) in grand fashion. On Tuesday, DC's official blog, The Source, hosted an open thread for fans to share their favorite Blackest Night moments and memories. Source blogger and PR guru Alex Segura posted a heartfelt encomium to the series, its spinoffs, and its creators once it wrapped on Wednesday. Today, editor Eddie Berganza contributed a eulogy of his own.
All well-deserved, as far as I'm concerned: Blackest Night clearly worked for its intended audience, myself included. A hook everyone could understand, a huge (and fun!) expansion of the Green Lantern mythos that convincingly roped in characters from the Flash to Lex Luthor to Hawk and Dove, rock-solid art from Ivan Reis, perhaps the most t-shirt-friendly concept in comics history…I had a hoot with this book and its parallel Green Lantern tie-ins as well, and judging from the uniformly positive fan feedback in the comments for Segura's tribute, I'm far from alone.

On Its Second Day, Facebook Stock Drops Sharply
After its much-ballyhooed initial public offering on Friday ended with the stock's price just about where it started, Facebook ended sharply lower today.
When the Nasdaq market is open, this chart should automatically update as Facebook's stock trades.
Just after the start of trading, the social media giant's shares were trading around $33, down 13 percent about $5 from Friday's close. At close, it ended 11 percent lower at $34.03.
We've embedded a constantly updated ticker that should let everyone watch how Facebook does. We won't be following Facebook every day, but thought an update was appropriate after all of last week's chattering about its first public offering of stock.
In related news, Nasdaq's chairman apologized over the weekend for trading problems that delayed the start of trading in Facebook's shares. And Facebook founder/CEO Mark Zuckerberg got married.

In the wake of the launch of the iPhone 4S, Apple has anotherô phenomenalô sales success on it's hands. This is great news for Apple, bad news for anyone signing a new 2 year agreement to get a subsidized phone. Unlike when the original iPhone launched on AT&T with an unlimited data plans, several of the top cellular carriers have since terminated unlimited plans.
Today Sprint is the only major carrier to offer an unlimited plan. Consequently, millions of iPhone users are stuck on AT&T and Verizon counting megabytes in fear of being charged overage fees.
For the past couple weeks I've been testing out a new data saving app called Onavo on my iPhone. It's currently available for both iOS and Android devices.
Update 1:
"ô In the US, our iPhone app only supports AT&T at this stage. Verizon and Sprint coming soon." – Onavo
The secret behind this data shrinking magic is the servers operated by Onavo.ô Once you give the app permission to handle all your data requests from the net, the Onavo servers intercede and shrink all the files sent back to your phone. Every photo, song, video and email sent to your phone is compressed before it is sent to you, thus shrinking your data usage.
Update 2:
For those of you concerned with the security of your data passing through Onavo's servers, rest assuredô encryptedô data stays intact and remains un-molested.
Onova stores "the bare minimum needed to support the service – all aggregated and anonymized, so we can report our users with data usage and savings.ô Secure content such as passwords and financial records are encrypted (SSL) and we cannot read or store them – just passing them through our 'magical shrinking machine' like any other router on the Internet."
More on their privacy and security measures can be found here:ô http://www.onavo.com/apps/ipho…
After several weeks of web browsing, watching videos, using Google maps, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram etc, I haven't run into any overages. I'm averaging about 65% percent savings on all data.
Check out the Onavo app here, and let me know how it works for you.

Afro rock is a popular dance music pioneered in the late 1960s and early 1970s by such groups as Aiye-Keta - Third World, a 3 Piece band with Remi Kabaka, Abdul Lasisi Amao and Steve Winwood, Monomono, Osibisa, BLO - Berkley Jones, Laolu Akins, Mike Odumosu and Alhaji K. Frimpong. It is a style of which relies heavily on the use of Western string instruments (electric guitars and bass) and guitar effects. The genre is deeply based in Western chordal structure and progression (mostly minor), emphasized on instruments like synthesizer and organ. Although the rhythmic engine of the music is (some configuration of) a western trap set, other characteristically African and Afro-Cuban elements pervade the remainder of the rhythm section (including congas, claves, shekeres, bells, and whistles). The vocal style can be seen as an amalgamation of African language and inflection into an American rock and funk context.

Teaching video to reporters
Note to myself: Must teach students how to handle these two things (both lifted from a post by Cyndy Green).
(1) You know what you want in the story, so tell the reporter ahead of time HOW to shoot the exact footage and HOW to get the audio that you want. (This is much better than just hoping the reporter will figure out what to do with the camera.)
To keep it simple, we told the reporter before he went out to (a) interview the teacher about what they were doing and why, and (b) shoot about 90 seconds of the students working on the project. Teachers are great at talking non-stop with few "ahs" and "ums," but first-graders are a little harder to work with. We decided ahead that we didn't have time to mess with that. Back at The Rep, we edited the video to dub the teacher's interview over the footage of the students. Worked great even though the reporter had no training on the camera because we gave specific instructions ahead on what he should shoot. It took roughly 35 minutes using Windows Movie Maker to edit.
(2) Does the reporter know how to use the camera fast in a breaking-news situation? Does he know what to do with the video upon returning to the newsroom?
A crash around noon during which a toddler was thrown from a car window was unexpected breaking news Tuesday. The chief photographer grabbed a point and shoot and captured the scene. He filmed while the reporter was interviewing a safety official. This video we wanted to get on right away because it was soon dated. The official didn't know answers to some of the questions. The photographer had put a video together then showed it to a line editor for approval. We wasted some time there because changes needed to be made in the video. We should have had the editor looking at the raw footage when it came in and giving editing instructions, just as we coach our print stories before they're written. [Note to self, for breaking news: Editors must see raw, unedited video immediately.] Essentially, we had to do the editing again, which took about 20 minutes the second time using iMovie.
Both examples were provided by Veronica VanDress, assistant city editor at the Canton Repository, a newspaper in Canton, Ohio.
These are realistic situations that can be taught. That is, an educator can train journalism students how to think this way.
On a day when I had spent three hours studying camera specifications and reviews, it was a great, great pleasure to think about the journalism part of reporter-shot video. Thanks, Cyndy.

Video in newsrooms today: Workflow
Usually I don't post on a weekend, but you've got to read this if you work in journalism today, or if you hope to work in journalism in the future:
Andy Dickinson's survey may not be scientific enough to be published in an academic journal, but it sure does give us food for thought:
- Video is commonly shot and edited by the same person.
- Reporters are expected to shoot video and file copy on the same story.
- Photographers are expected to shoot stills and video on the same story.
- You should allow 4 hours to produce 1 minute of video. [I wish I were that good.]
- There are no clearly defined roles in newsrooms for video.
Hey, he is talking about newspaper newsrooms, people! And that's just the very top of a long and very informative post, by Andy, so please go and read it.

'We who rule content must start making decisions'
The news is not all bad:
The research we did in cities in the U.S. and abroad this past summer provided compelling evidence that the news is as valuable as ever — even in an age where screen-based headlines overwhelm the senses and the next update is never more than a mouse-click away.
Young people the world over are hungry for news. They just don't prefer our traditional platforms and packaging.

Tape vs. hard drive vs. card, and AVCHD
Planning to buy some video cameras for online journalism students to use, I'm doing buyer's research.
I had been feeling confident about the Canon HV20 — under $1,000, with both microphone and headphone inputs. But some new information has interceded. If any of you have some advice to offer, please do.
First, a lot of people (and Web sites) have been talking about the move away from tape (goin' tapeless!). I learned to shoot on Mini DV tapes, and I'm used to capturing from tape, but I do appreciate the convenience of copying a file (from a hard drive or memory card). It's faster.
Second, I had a chat with Chet Rhodes, assistant managing editor for news video at washingtonpost.com, and he showed me a new camera he's testing, the Sony CX7. It records to the Sony Memory Stick PRO Duo format memory card. Chet likes the idea that a reporter can drop the card into an envelope and overnight-mail it back to Washington. Can't do that with a hard drive. He also likes the cool Bluetooth microphone from Sony. Unlike the typical "wireless" lavalier mic, this one really has NO wires.
Third, I started reading reviews of the Canon HG10, which records to a built-in hard drive. The price is a bit higher than the HV20, but if the hard drive is going to make life easier for the students, it would be worth it.
However, there's a fourth point: A new video format, AVCHD.
From a review of the HG10:
Editing AVCHD footage is not impossible anymore, but it's certainly no joy. Two programs have emerged that offer a decent array of editing tools for unconverted AVCHD files (.m2t extension for PCs): Ulead Video Studio 11 Plus and Sony Vegas Movie Studio 8. There are lots of other tools out there that allow you to convert AVCHD files to MPEG2 or whatever you need, and probably a few programs we don't even know about, but these are the big two. Unfortunately, Vegas is only available with Sony AVCHD camcorders, not Panasonic or Canon. So we're left with Ulead.
There are further constraints. Software engineers were tearing their hair out for awhile trying to create efficient ways to deal with the tightly woven algorithms. Working with AVCHD is taxing on your computer, and you're going to need a powerhouse processor and memory to do it with any expediency.
Well, as you might imagine, it's not as if I can guarantee that each student will have access to "a powerhouse processor" and giant stacks of memory.
Now, back to Chet, who was kind enough to answer a couple of questions about AVCHD (which the Sony CX7 also uses). Currently his people are using the CX7 in SD mode — so they are recording in an MPEG format, not AVCHD. "Once more editing software supports AVCHD, then we might move that way," he wrote in an e-mail.
From what I can tell at the Canon site, the HG10 records in ACVHD (MPEG-4 AVCH/H.264: 5/7/9/15 Mbps) only. So unless I'm mistaken, we don't have the ability to edit the footage in our computer labs, because of the limitations of our hardware and software.
A PC World article from 2006 explains the AVCHD format and its limitations pretty well.
In the meantime, iMovie '08 reportedly does support the HG10's flavor of AVCHD. Final Cut Pro 6.0.1 offers support for AVCHD, with some limitations (such as no Firewire). I can't find any evidence that Windows Movie Maker supports AVCHD at this time.
So I was getting all excited about tapeless video, but now it seems that with the limitations of university computer labs to contend with, I might be buying those Canon HV20 cameras after all.
Update (Feb. 23, 2008): We did buy four of the HV20 cameras, and so far, they are working out very well. One of the benefits to using tape with students is that I can make them hand in the tapes so I can grade (or at least critique) their raw footage. You'll want to figure out how many tapes each student will need in the semester and charge a lab fee to cover the costs; buying tape in boxes of 50 or 100 is much cheaper than buying a three-pack at Best Buy.

How video should be used on the Web by newspapers
Cyndy Green on the benefits of using a small video camera:
I am no longer an invader, infecting the story with my mere presence. I am invisible. An old(er) lady with a camera. Ignored. I can now see the real story … not necessarily the story being acted out for the benefit of the camera.
More in a short, sweet post about exploring video storytelling for journalism.
Green worked in TV news for 28 years, carrying a very, very big camera. Now, as a high school teacher, she's experimenting with smaller, cheaper cameras.

First lesson in audio for journalists
I am getting a little weary of hearing journalists and educators say they don't know how to do audio.
Let's see whether I can translate my less-than-50-minute* lesson into plain text.
Gathering Audio
It helps if you are holding the recorder, mic and cable — and demonstrating while you teach this. (Sorry, I don't have video of me teaching it!)
- Always use an external microphone.
- Make sure the recorder is recording before you start.
- Let the subject do the talking.
- Don't say "Uh huh" or "Mm hm." Learn to nod silently and make great eye contact so they know you are listening closely.
- Ask questions that lead the subject to tell a story.
- Collect relevant natural sound, e.g., hammers, crowds, water, traffic, street musicians.
- Never let the subject hold the mic, and don't move your hand on the mic.
- Don't swing or bump the mic cable.
- Carry spare batteries.
- Ask the subject to say his or her full name, job title, home town, etc. — at the end. If they say it too fast, ask them to say it again, more slowly.
Practice Gathering Audio
If you have gear, or if the students have gear:
- Put students in teams of two, with one recorder and one mic for each pair.
- Send them outdoors, and tell them to interview each other (one at a time, please) for five minutes.
- Tell them to be careful about background noise in the spot they choose.
- Require them to WEAR HEADPHONES while they conduct the interview. What they hear in the headphones is what the recorder is recording. (If the interview subject's P's and S's are too pronounced, the mic is too close to the subject's mouth. Move it.)
Editing Audio
- Open Audacity (more about that below).
- Open this file (or one like it) in Audacity. This file is a good one to use because: (a) it is very short; and (b) it has clear pauses between statements, which make it easy to demonstrate selecting bites.
- Show the students how to delete the preliminary stuff at the beginning: Select and delete (press the Delete key).
- Show the students how to undo (Edit menu, or Ctrl-Z, or Cmd-Z).
- Show the students how to MOVE a piece of audio from the end of the clip to another place in the clip: Select, cut, click on the new place, and paste (use the Edit menu, or use Ctrl-X and Ctrl-V; on a Mac, it's Cmd-X and Cmd-V).
You're done. Those are the basics of editing digital audio.
I always tell students: It's like using Microsoft Word, which every reporter already knows how to do. Cut, copy, paste. You already know how to do this.
Practice Editing Audio
If you have computers, or if the students have computers, with Audacity installed:
- Copy the file onto the hard drive.
- Convert from WMA to WAV (if necessary).
- Open the file in Audacity.
- Edit the interview you just completed to a length of 45 to 60 seconds.
- Cut out all the "ums" and "ahs."
- Move the subject's introduction from the end to the beginning.
- Save and export as an MP3 file.
If you are a journalism educator, I can promise you — these take less time to grade than a 300-word (written) news story. You can complete this entire training — including gathering AND editing — in less than three hours. I have done it lots of times! The students can turn in their first edited audio project at the end of the class.
* If it's all hands-on, you'll need about 2.5 to 3 hours. If it's only show-and-tell, with no hands-on, you can do it in less than one hour.
Grading Criteria for First Audio Exercise
- 2 points: The audio is interesting and tells a coherent story.
- 2 points: The audio sounds clear, and the quality is good.
- 1 point: The length is between 45 and 60 seconds.
(I am assuming your students already know how to conduct a journalistic interview.)
Use this handout (PDF, 236 KB) for instructions. It explains not only how to do all of the editing, but also, how to download and install Audacity — which is free and works on Windows, Mac and Linux.
In most cases, I'm using a sub-$100 Olympus digital recorder. I have mics that cost abut $100 each and others that cost about $15 each. The cable costs about $10. So you can put together a usable audio kit for about $100 altogether.
When you are ready for more, look here.

Headline writing for online audiences (and search engines)
Somehow I missed this excellent post about SEO for online headlines, by Patrick Beeson, online for two weeks already! Read it and learn how to write headlines that will bring a bigger audience to your stories.
Lucky for me, one of my forward-thinking colleagues here at the university asked if I knew any good resources about search engine optimization that he could use in his lecture on headline writing. I knew I had seen some in the past, so I went into Google to see if I could find them again. Up jumped Patrick's post. It's suitable for reading in any journalism class — and any newsroom, for that matter.
One resource Patrick did not link to in his post is a New York Times article from last year, which claims that search engines are eroding the fine art of headline writing:
Some news sites offer two headlines. One headline, often on the first Web page, is clever, meant to attract human readers. Then, one click to a second Web page, a more quotidian, factual headline appears with the article itself. The popular BBC News Web site does this routinely on longer articles.
Nic Newman, head of product development and technology at BBC News Interactive, pointed to a few examples from last Wednesday. The first headline a human reader sees: "Unsafe sex: Has Jacob Zuma's rape trial hit South Africa's war on AIDS?" One click down: "Zuma testimony sparks HIV fear." Another headline meant to lure the human reader: "Tulsa star: The life and career of much-loved 1960's singer." One click down: "Obituary: Gene Pitney."
I think this is not true anymore — a quick look at the BBC News front today shows that the headline on the story is exactly the same as the link you clicked on the referring page. BBC headlines must be between 31 and 33 characters, including spaces, to accommodate all platforms — including videotex and mobile phones. Even with that strict limit, the BBC writes some of the best online heds in the world — the right keywords are there, and you can see at a glance what the story is about.
This not only gives the BBC great "Google juice"; it also helps you, the reader, make that split-second decision: Do I want to click on that?

Tom Parrella, President of Bulletproof Securities
August 12, 2013 by Barbara With
According to an article in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Governor Scott Walker's office was in touch with the head of Bulletproof Securities before they entered the state and committed a felony by not securing proper licensing to carry machine guns in the Penokee Hills.
Several complaints were filed against BPS with the State Department of Safety and Professional Services and the Iron County District Attorney. However, those were ignored when the department finally granted Bulletproof their permits in mid-August. Iron County District Attorney Martin Lipske said on Friday that he was negotiating a deal with GTac to not prosecute them or BPS if they agree to patrol the area without guns.
"I'm going beyond simply not filing them," said Lipske. "I want some more concessions so that hopefully we don't have to have high-intensity security people like Bulletproof have or acting in a high intensive manner like being armed. If we can get some sort of agreement like that, I feel that then justice will be served."
Bulletproof claimed that needed to break the law and not obtain legal license to do business in the State because of the "threat" caused by a protest that took place at the mining company's core drilling site on June 11.

BOISE, Idaho (August 17, 2013)--Sheriff deputies in Idaho were ordering more homeowners to clear out of the way of a wind-driven wildfire still burning Saturday near the resort community of Sun Valley.
The Blaine County Sheriff Department issued a mandatory evacuation order that covers 1,600 homes in the region, as the 100-square-mile Beaver Creek fire burns through sage and pine trees in the mountains and foothills west of the towns of Hailey and Ketchum in central Idaho.
The fire prompted managers at the Sun Valley Ski Resort to turn on water cannons across the ski hill to protect lodges and chairlifts.
More than 600 firefighters are battling the flames in the affluent resort region that serves as a second home to such celebrities as Arnold Schwarzenegger and Tom Hanks.

Here's an odd problem I noticed with Chrome and the Finder. I'm new to OS X so I'm not really sure if this is a bug, or there is some setting that may fix it.
- Select Assign To..None for the Finder app.
- Open a Finder window on desktop 1.
- Open a Chrome window on desktop 2.
- Download a file in Chrome, and click on Show in Finder.
The new Finder window opens on Desktop 2, yet you are switched back to the Finder window in Desktop 1. This is confusing and requires a couple of clicks to get back to Desktop 2.
This behavior doesn't happen in iTunes when I click on Show in Finder there, so I don't know.

BT Number Board
By Henry Palma
Open iTunes to buy and download apps.
Teaches students how to count to 100!!!
Number Recognition, Skip Counting, Even and Odd Numbers.
Students are first introduced to the numbers 1 to 100 in the learn section. Students can click on the number to hear its name and also see their value using the number counting stars.
The next section teaches students about even numbers. Even numbers are numbers that end in 2,4,6,8 and 0. Students simply click on the even numbers on the board. Correct answers are highlighted in green.
Next Students are introduced to odd numbers. Odd numbers are numbers that end in 1,3,5,7 and 9. This section works like the even numbers section where the students simply click on the correct odd number.
The 4th section teaches students skip counting. Students can select the number interval and then click on the numbers to see their skip counting pattern
The last section is the Find the numbers section. Students are challenged to find the hidden numbers on the board.
Customer Reviews
BT Number Board
It is good. There is another similar app I prefer personally as the colors in this are a bit overwhelming all at once for some students with special needs and the voice echos a bit too. I do really appreciate the visual representation of the numbers with stars at the top, as well as the number of correct and incorrect attempts displayed. I think the presentation could be better, but it gets the job done.
Great app for teaching kids numbers
Excellent app for kids learning numbers 1-100.

What's an easy way of installing a traditional door bell? I know there are the wireless, battery operated ones, but I'm tired of changing out batteries. Is there a version of doorbell that could just be plugged into a wall outlet, or better yet, NOT use up and outlet but somehow "tap into" a nearby outlet for power?
There are a small number of battery free doorbells such as these
They work on a signal generated by pressure (piezoelectric?). These are similar to the wireless battery-free switches now showing up for AC fixtures.
Installing a conventional doorbell involves fishing low voltage or T-wire from the button and chime to a transformer that is attached to a 120vac power source. This is usually done at a j-box in the basement or some exposed area. The transformer cannot be hidden without access in a wall etc. If you have existing finished walls, there is never an "easy" way to fish these wires through enclosed spaces. I like some of the suggestions in the comment section. A plug in chime and a battery operated button is an excellent option. +1 johnny.
To answer the question: yes, small plug-in transformers exist if you're willing to tie up an outlet that way; most traditional doorbell systems run on something between 12 and 24 volts. (First one my web search hit was 16V.) It's more common to hardwire the transformer into a box in the basement.
As noted, though, the more challenging part may bd running the wires between transformer, button, and bell. Easy to do in "new work"; harder to retrofit without a lot of patching.

America's Century of Regime Change from Hawaii to Iraq
Times Books, Hardcover, 9780805078619, 400pp.
Publication Date: April 4, 2006
A fast-paced narrative history of the coups, revolutions, and invasions by which the United States has toppled fourteen foreign governments--not always to its own benefit
"Regime change" did not begin with the administration of George W. Bush, but has been an integral part of U.S. foreign policy for more than one hundred years. Starting with the overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy in 1893 and continuing through the Spanish-American War and the Cold War and into our own time, the United States has not hesitated to overthrow governments that stood in the way of its political and economic goals. The invasion of Iraq in 2003 is the latest, though perhaps not the last, example of the dangers inherent in these operations.
In Overthrow, Stephen Kinzer tells the stories of the audacious politicians, spies, military commanders, and business executives who took it upon themselves to depose monarchs, presidents, and prime ministers. He also shows that the U.S. government has often pursued these operations without understanding the countries involved; as a result, many of them have had disastrous long-term consequences.
In a compelling and provocative history that takes readers to fourteen countries, including Cuba, Iran, South Vietnam, Chile, and Iraq, Kinzer surveys modern American history from a new and often surprising perspective.
Stephen Kinzer is the author of Reset, Overthrow, All the Shah's Men, Crescent and Star, and numerous other books. An award-winning foreign correspondent, he served as The New York Times's bureau chief in Turkey, Germany, and Nicaragua and as The Boston Globe's Latin America correspondent. He teaches international relations at Boston University and is a frequent contributor to The New York Review of Books and a columnist for The Guardian. He lives in Boston. Visit Stephen Kinzer's website at www.StephenKinzer.com.
"Citizens concerned about foreign affairs must read this book. Stephen Kinzer's crisp and thoughtful Overthrow undermines the myth of national innocence. Quite the contrary: history shows the United States as an interventionist busybody directed at regime change. We deposed fourteen foreign governments in hardly more than a century, some for good reasons, more for bad reasons, with most dubious long-term consequences."
--Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.
"Stephen Kinzer has a grim message for those critics of the Iraqi war who believe George W. Bush to be America's most misguided, uninformed, and reckless president. Bush has had plenty of company in the past century--presidents who believe that America, as Kinzer tells us, has the right to wage war wherever it deems war necessary."
--Seymour M. Hersh
"Stephen Kinzer's book is a jewel. After reading Overthrow, no American -- not even President Bush -- should any longer wonder 'why they hate us.' Overthrow is a narrative of all the times we've overthrown a foreign government in order to put in power puppets that are obedient to us. It is a tale of imperialism American-style, usually in the service of corporate interests, and as Kinzer points out, 'No nation in modern history has done this so often, in so many places so far from its own shores.' "
--Chalmers Johnson

Mapping the election: Why Condon's ahead
A look at the precinct breakdown for the City of Spokane Mayor's race shows that incumbent Mary Verner carried the city's central core, but challenger David Condon is leading her in precincts all around that center.
And he's winning big in some heavy voting precincts in northwest Spokane and the upper South Hill.
The race isn't over, but Condon can probably rest easier tonight than Verner

The NZ Transport Agency says it is pleased with the first
blast carried out yesterday as part of a programme to remove
a 2000 tonne section of unstable rock above the western
entrance of the Homer Tunnel.
This blast is part of a programme to demolish the rock which
posed such a high risk to road users, that the NZ Transport
Agency (NZTA) has closed the Milford Road from the eastern
tunnel entrance since May 23.
NZTA Southland Area Manager Peter Robinson says a quick
initial aerial inspection following the blast showed a
substantial amount of rock came down, but with the light
fading at the site it wasn't possible to take a close-up
An on-site inspection is planned for the next patch of clear
weather, possibly on Monday.
"None of the tunnel infrastructure was damaged in the blast
including a temporary portal extension that opened in
February. This result has exceeded our expectations and it's
a huge relief to get the amount of rock off mountainside that
we did."
A total 2km exclusion zone including air space was in place
around the blast site today, with road closures in place 5km
on either side of the Homer Tunnel.
A name, residential address, and (preferably residential) telephone number is required from readers who comment on ODT Online. These details will not be visible to site visitors.

:: PETEX Perspectives
from Greg McCormack, Director
We have heard you loud and clear. PETEX understands that you have many people to be trained quickly and cost-effectively. Your training needs encompass operations personnel, technicians, professionals, and administrative staff, all of whom would benefit from flexible training formats to get the job done. PETEX believes in a blended approach to training. Therefore, we provide a variety of learning formats—instructor-led classes, hands-on training, and self-study applications—to make sure your people are quality trained. Customized onsite training is another vehicle we provide to give companies exactly what they need by building their own standard operating processes into the curriculum.
Our clients have confirmed the importance of self-paced study, and we have undertaken a major initiative in digital training solutions to meet the need. This is evident in our newly introduced e-books and online training modules that run on your learning management systems. PETEX Digital Training Solutions (DTS) Project Manager, Zahid Yoosufani, leads this charge. His many years of experience with IBM equip him with the essential tools needed to help transition PETEX content to digital formats. Today, PETEX offers over forty e-books, three training modules, and an interactive rig module.
That said, we know that a standardized approach is not always appropriate, so we offer our resources to help you develop the type of digital training systems you need. I am excited at the progress we are making in this arena, and I invite you to share your requirements and take part in testing so we can help develop the modules and specialized training you need. If you would like to partner in this process, please feel free to contact our DTS team at email@example.com. Whatever path you take, PETEX is there to assist with your immediate and future training needs to meet the challenges afoot. Look forward to a major announcement regarding digital training in our next newsletter.

CUT THE CHICKEN into strips 2-inches-by-1/2-inch and put in a large bowl. Blend the marinade ingredients together and pour the mixture over the chicken. Mix well for even distribution. Allow the chicken to marinate for 30-to-40 minutes at room temperature. Heat the oil in a deep-fat fryer or large wok until it is quite hot. Lightly sprinkle the chicken strips with the flour and deep-fry them for 8 minutes. Remove them and drain on paper towels. Serve at once.
