Comment: Re:No (Score 5, Informative) 502
No it isn't fiddling with numbers. You are missing the heat pump bit.
The device is taking X amount of energy from the electricity supply and X * 1.3 of energy as thermal and converting this to X * 2.3 as light. i.e. it is 230% efficient when comparing light output to electrical input. Equally, it is 100% efficient when comparing light output to electrical and heat energy input combined.
This does take a little bit of thinking to get your head around but I have a more common example in the shed outside. It contains a heat pump which is 350% efficient. It takes 2kW from the electricity supply and outputs 7kW of heat energy to heat my house. The missing 5kW comes from the pipes in the garden as heat energy. The result being that the garden is slowly being cooled. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_pump
Comment: Re:Magnetics (Score 1, Troll) 132
I have no idea what this means. How is this possible?
I guess because you didn't study properly at school...
"Without them you would effectively tie the RX and TX signals together and probably turn the entire network into an aerial for Radio 2 reception."
I disagree with the first part of this. Ethernet works off differential signals and the transformer does a good job of removing the common mode signals (non differential) coming down the wire. Without the magnetics the common mode signals (such as DC, mains interference, Radio 2 transmissions) picked up by a potentially long ethernet lead will turn up at the input to the ethernet phy (receiver) chip. This may or may not be enough to stop it from working depending on the interference received. The lack of correct voltage biasing (also done via the magnetics) will very likely stop it from working though. Even so the RX and TX won't be shorted.

Studies have repeatedly shown that prayer helps in hospital situations. Why? Maybe people just feel comforted or a sense that somebody cares about them and wants them to make it. What's the scientific explanation? I haven't seen a good one. But more people recover and have less complications.
Show me a double blind experiment which shows prayers work? Properly conducted double blind experiments has shown that prayer does not work. The experiments which do show a result, the patient knows that they are being prayed for and/or are doing the praying themselves. Sure it may help these people but this is due to the ritual causing the person to self heal. No super power is involved at all.
If you disagree and think prayer does work in the double blind, go and speak to http://www.randi.org/site/index.php/1m-challenge.html and he will give you $1million when you succeed.

Inter Milan coach Andrea Stramaccioni says they're aware of the threat of Tottenham star Gareth Bale.
The two teams meet tonight in the Europa League.
ŌĆ£Gareth Bale is becoming one of the most complete players in Europe, because he is proving always decisive as well as having great quality. That distinguishes a good player from a great champion.
ŌĆ£There is respect for Bale, just as for Aaron Lennon, Jermain Defoe and the other great Tottenham players. However, we too have champions and I am certain Spurs respect us. We have no fear.ŌĆØ
Bale famously tore through the Inter defence when these sides met in the Champions League in 2010, so has Stramaccioni studied any measures?
ŌĆ£I think it important to play in an attentive way, although we know that at this moment we havenŌĆÖt got much room to make changes.
ŌĆ£In any case, the match is Tottenham-Inter and not Bale-Inter, thatŌĆÖs how I see it. We will look out for him as we will all their players.
ŌĆ£In order to get a good result, we will need a great performance, as Tottenham are perhaps the form team in the Premier League. ThatŌĆÖs not an alibi, but we will hopefully be able to count on more motivation from our emergency situation.ŌĆØ

The sparkling life encompasses the whole table, not just the glass, and we believe the right food paired with the right wine makes both better. Explore some of our culinary experts' favorite wine-loving recipes that will make your occasion sing.
Oysters with Seasoned Béarnaise
The only thing better than fresh oysters is fresh oysters drizzled with creamy, delicate béarnaise and paired with equally creamy, delicate 2006 Mt. Veeder Vintage Brut.
Blood Orange Braised Short Ribs with Roasted Beets
A hearty, natural companion for our new 2009 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, this unique twist on a classic braised rib recipe uses fresh, tangy blood oranges to add some zip.
Meyer Lemon Vacherin
The Meyer Lemon Vacherin is one of étoile Restaurant's signature desserts this season. Specifically made to complement Chandon bubbly, this light, flavorful delight offers the perfect end to any romantic meal.
Caramelized Onion Tarts
Chef Perry Hoffman, the youngest American chef ever to receive a coveted Michelin star rating, knows a thing or two about keeping his diners happy. Borrow from his wisdom at your next dinner party with these delightful little tarts paired with Chandon bubbly.
Roasted Alaskan Halibut, artichokes, corn, tomato confit
This is a marvelous time of year to pair savory, roasted meat and fish with the crisp, hearty autumn vegetables appearing in your produce section. This recipe is one of our favorite ways to do just that.
Heirloom apple with curry and ginger prosciutto salad
Chandon creates a unique, limited-edition wine annually as an exclusive offering for our Prestige Members. Several years ago, a creamy, indulgent Crémant was an instant classic. We're excited to announce its return, and asked étoile Restaurant Chef Perry Hoffman for a complementary dish to this classic wine style.
Frozen Cappuccino Soufflés in Chocolate Cups
If you like cappuccino, you'll surely love this frozen version, a picturesque and impressive frozen chocolate cup made of rich bittersweet chocolate and filled with frosty and frothy espresso soufflé. It's a sweet dessert, but still light on the palate.
Carrot and Hearts of Palm Salad with Kumquats, Cumin Seeds, and Tangerine-Curry Vinaigrette
A riotous mingling of flavors bursts forth from this colorful salad. Toasted cumin seeds, tangy kumquats, and cilantro give simple carrots and hearts of palm a fresh new personality, fashionably dressed in a curry vinaigrette with a tangerine twist. The étoile chefs like to use purple carrots from the Domaine Chandon garden when available. But any carrot—including the common orange variety—will make this salad sublime.
Deviled Quail Eggs with Caviar
This hors d'oeuvre is an eye-catching display of black caviar set on a miniature bed of onion-laced deviled egg. Each tiny quail egg sits snugly on a little round brioche toast and requires only a pinch of caviar to complete the picture. They are easy to serve to dinner guests upon arrival or to a circulating cocktail crowd, and may serve to prompt some lively discussion, too. Popping a little egg into your mouth and washing it down with a glass of chilled sparkling wine makes a stunning equation on the palate.
Braised Veal Cheeks with Celery Root Purée
These tender veal cheeks will practically melt in your mouth. They are easy to prepare and, once in the oven, pretty much take care of themselves. An added benefit is that they are well suited to entertaining late-arriving guests. Once the meat and the purée have cooked, they can be kept covered at room temperature for up to an hour or so if necessary. Just quickly reheat them on the stovetop or in a microwave prior to serving.

A collection of images taken while on vacation in California
miles11 Nottinghamshire
I first got into photography about twenty years ago. Always having had a love of music I focus most of my attention on live bands. I try to work without any false lighting or flash, but try to capture the "moment" using what light is available to me at the time, looking for the way the light falls on someone and the colours, shapes and angles are all important even with Black and White photography. I am now fully digital but still use my film cameras on occasions. I would like to get a camera that is HD ready may be the canon 7D so I could shoot some short films. My aim is to be the best photographer I can be and to get my work to a wider audience.

Destiny Beta Coming First To PlayStation
Posted on Thursday, November 14 @ 20:51:11 Eastern by Alex_Osborn
Destiny's upcoming beta will be available first to PlayStation owners, Bungie confirmed tonight during Spike TV's PlayStation 4 launch event.
Those who reserve the game will be granted access to the upcoming beta, but those getting the game on PlayStation 3 or PlayStation 4 will be able to hop in and play first. Is it me or does it still seem weird that a Bungie-developed and Activision-published title is more strongly aligned with the PlayStation platform?
Check out the latest trailer above and stay tuned to GameRevolution for all your PS4 needs.

I'm ready to jump ship on Direct TV... Versus in studio guys arent the best but its the only game in town (literally) many Mondays and Tuesdays -- even with Center Ice and NHL Network.
I've repeatedly emailed Direct and always get the same canned answer. Anyone have any new info...
Thanks for writing. I understand your concern about getting Versus back. Our contract with Comcast expired on August 31, 2009, and we were unable to reach agreement on a renewal. Comcast was demanding renewal terms that did not reflect market value for the channel, and they forced us to drop Versus unless we agreed to their unreasonable terms.
Nevertheless, we continue to work in good faith with Comcast to try to reach a fair and just settlement that will bring Versus back to DIRECTV. At this time, however, we have no new information to report.

Journal reviewers look back at the highlights of another busy Fringe season, and offer their wisdom on the must-see shows as Fringed and Confused heads into its final weekend.
You can't get this Fringed and Confused, and then just stop, cold turkey. Some of the hottest shows at the 33rd annual incarnation of the Edmonton Fringe Festival are held over next week.
Fringed and Confused? Don't let the title of this year's Fringe Festival put you in a spin.

Two more headliners have been announced for Edmonton's Comic Entertainment Expo next month.
Here are some events happening in and around Edmonton during the week of Aug. 21-27, 2014.
The Edmonton Galleria Project has hit the streets this week in an effort to attract support and spread information about the downtown development project. Handing out free popcorn and bottled water near Beaver Hills House Park on Jasper Avenue Tuesday, members of the Edmonton Downtown Academic and Cultural Centre Foundation attempted to engage passersby in discussions about plans for the Galleria project, an $850-million four-theatre, retail and academic complex to be built in downtown Edmonton across from City Hall along 97th Street.

"He's still such a babe," the woman beside me noted, ignoring our wedding rings. Fine, it's true. Tom Petty is beautiful. Witty, bearded, talented, famous, iconic, cooler in one pinky than the last 40 bands through town. And I love him, too.

Welcome to PostScript. We want to give you a behind-the-scenes look at the biggest stories, photographs, and interviews that appeared in the Journal this week. This week we interview veteran theatre critic Liz Nicholls who is in the middle of the city's annual summer theatre binge, the 33rd Edmonton International Fringe Theatre Festival. She tells us how the Fringe is like Red Bull, she talks about bad reviews, and she tells us about what's changed over three decades of Fringe reviewing. Also be sure to check out the Journal's Fringe Festival guide and review app at:

At a glance, 32 summers of Edmonton Fringe history may look like chaos. Fabulous chaos, but still. After all, our gigantic, unjuried alternative theatre bash is the unruly monster-child of permissive non-interventionist parents. And it grew up all topsy turvy, sprouting strange theatrical limbs. But every once in a while, you can make out repeating patterns, startling traditions, even.

Those associated with Greek life will often tell you it is nothing like what is portrayed in "Animal House" or "The House Bunny," so The Digital Bullpen decided to take a look at what Greek life is actually like in this list: Top five things you might not know about USF's Greeks.
1. USF's Greek system has four governing bodies, not just one overruling hierarchy. Two of the governing bodies, the Panhellenic Association and the Interfraternity Council, oversee the traditionally recognized sororities and fraternities. The third division, called the National Pan-Hellenic Council, governs the African American sororities and fraternities. The fourth, the Unified Greek Council, oversees all of the culturally-based fraternities.
2. There are
42 Greek chapters at USF and nearly 2,000 members in the Greek community, which represents less than 5 percent of the entire student population. Despite that, they still wield strong power on campus. All five previous student body presidents were members of Greek organizations on campus and the next one will be, too.
3. USF has only had on-campus fraternity and sorority housing since 2003. Greek Village houses a mere 14 of the 42 Greek chapters.
4. USF on-campus Greek housing is extremely modest compared to other college campuses with older, more traditional housing. Each of the seven large buildings in Greek Village is actually divided in half in order to house two different fraternities or sororities under the same roof.
5. While the process of joining fraternities and sororities is often thought of as a popularity contest, according to Viancca Williams, Assistant Director for the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life, applicants are selected more because of the values they portray. Some of these values include leadership, athleticism, social responsibility, honesty, integrity and the ability to become "a true gentleman."

Today's weather forecast: Dreamy
Q: El Cholo has dates next to certain dishes on the menu. Did the chain invent both the Caesar salad and fajitas?
A: It's food industry semantics. "Those dates are when we started serving them," says Dawn Schlegel, regional manager of the chain's L.A. locations, including the Western Avenue flagship, which celebrates its 90th anniversary this year. "We don't claim to have invented anything." That doesn't mean we're not counting the days until the reinstatement of green corn tamales in May.

Although the Eagles and their head coach Andy Reid continue to insist that the team's starting runner Brian Westbrook has a chance of playing this weekend against the Giants, it is becoming increasingly unlikely the concussion victim will suit up for Week 8. There have been various tests and evaluations of Westbrook's head (which was hit and somewhat severely injured vs. the Redskins), and despite optimism and such statements from staff, there are quite a few signs pointing in the direction of a missed game rather than played game for the veteran RB this Sunday.
Westbrook, who has already been inactive for a game this season with a twisted ankle, was held out of most of Week 7's contest after he collided roughly with one of the Redskins' defenders and exited the game to undergo a medical examination. He didn't participate in yesterday's practice, and was also absent from duties in today's session because of continuing pain in his head. This, added to the league commissioner's recent statements raising awareness of concussion injuries in football, and the analysis of team trainer and health specialist Rick Burkholder's comments saying that Westbrook's status for the game is up in the air, makes it likely that all the 8th-year rusher will be doing on Sunday against the Giants is encouraging other players on the sideline (or perhaps rehabilitating elsewhere if the injury improves little).
Despite the good possibility that Westbrook won't be carrying the load versus the rival New York team, his backups are prepared for a potential increase in work. 2nd-string RB and 2nd-round Draft selection LeSean McCoy (pictured) has already started a game (the Week 3 matchup in which Westbrook was out with ankle pain), and has overall been a productive offensive weapon when utilized as the main back. On the season, he has gained 212 yards and a touchdown off of 59 carries, to go along with receiving contributions in the form of 13 receptions for 92 yards. His statistics aren't eye-popping, but the freshman player has also executed solid blocking and has performed well as an offensive decoy to other key members of the team. McCoy talked briefly about his potential start and what he thinks of the game as a whole: "I've kind of been in this situation before," "I kind of have the flow of the offense and I've been playing with Donovan [McNabb] and all the guys, DeSean [Jackson], so it's really not a difference. Even when Brian [Westbrook] was playing we still rotated quite a bit, so I don't think it's going to be that big of a difference."
While McCoy would get the start in the absence of Westbrook, powerful runner Eldra Buckley would also see a rise in playing time, as he'd elevate from the 3rd RB spot to the backup position. Although he hasn't been a significant factor in the offensive strategies this year, getting only one hand-off for 4 yards, the preseason star and "long shot" offseason addition is excited about the chance of playing more, but has also not changed his preparation practices for the game, saying: "It doesn't change my preparation at all," "Every week when I go out to practice, I'm looking at what they're doing and I'm the film room every week. It really doesn't change my preparation; it just alerts me more to know that I could be in there early." "I'm excited every week just to be able to play, come out and play the game we love. I'm excited every week so this week won't be different from any other week."
In addition to the possible increased workloads of McCoy and Buckley, recent acquisition P.J. Hill and FB Leonard Weaver might also see some carries. Hill, signed from the Saints' practice squad after LB Omar Gaither was placed on the IR, is a strong and hard runner, and might get a few short-yardage calls if he can prove ready to play in the coming days of practice. Weaver, meanwhile, will still line up as the starting Fullback, but could see more hand-offs as a result of the potential Westbrook absence. After all, the team signed him because of his versatility and ability to run the ball just as well as some listed Running Backs. He too commented on the chance of seeing more running opportunities: "I'm very comfortable [carrying the ball], it's something I've been able to do my whole career, going from fullback to playing a little bit of everything," "So whatever they want to do and whatever Coach Reid and [offensive coordinator] Marty [Mornhinweg] want to call as plays, I'll be prepared."
With all of the depth at the RB position and the positive feedback from Westbrook's backups, it seems the Eagles won't have much trouble establishing a running attack versus the Giants. Of course, that can only be determined true during and after the Week 8 rivalry game, but right now, it's sounding good.

BLUEFIELD (WVVA) - The threat of rain Monday didn't stop a group of volunteers from working to improved city park.
Volunteers from Americorps and the City of Bluefield worked to resurface basketball and volleyball courts, as well as rebuild an old shed.
The work was part of a demo project for the Boy Scout Jamboree. Projects like these are meant to act as a 'dress rehearsal' ahead of next year's jamboree, which will be held in Fayette County.
The group has already completed, or will complete similar projects in several southern West Virginia counties.
The jamboree takes place next July. Thousands of scouts are expected to attend.

It is very difficult to believe that the current make up of the Board of Directors was unknowing of all the events leading up to the Sandusky hearing; therefore, Penn State needs to clean house on the Board of Directors.
Also, it is unwise to force the future of Penn State football in a direction and is unworthy of the history and tradition we have and share as Penn State Alum's and fans.

Apple Introduces New iMacs and 13 Inch Macbook Pro with Retina Display 'For the Pro in All of Us'
Apple announced a new and faster iPad today (less than eight months after the new Retina iPad), along with an entirely new product line, the iPad mini. For most filmmakers though, that's an appetizer to the main course — which happens to be brand new computers, including a new Mac mini, a 13″ Macbook Pro with a Retina display, and new (incredibly thin — pictured left) 21″ and 27″ iMacs. We didn't get a Retina iMac like many were hoping for (or a new Mac Pro for that matter), but the fact that they squeezed an entire computer inside such a thin housing is a remarkable feat. Click through for the rest of the details.
Since it was a pretty big day, here is a rundown of what was released and when it's going to be available:
- iPad — faster with Lightning port | $500 and up for Wifi, $630 and up for LTE | Both versions available in November
- iPad mini — with 7.9″ 1024 x 768 display | $330 and up | Available in November
- Mac Mini – Dual 2.5 Ghz or Quad Core 2.3 Ghz Ivy Bridge Processor | $600 and up | Shipping Now
- 13″ Macbook Pro – Retina display - 2560 x 1600 | $1,700 and up | Shipping Now
- 21″ iMac — 1920 x 1080 display | $1300 and up | Ships in November
- 27″ iMac – 2560 x 1440 display | $1800 and up | Ships in December
So they announced new iMacs — big deal, right? Well, it's some of the less than obvious features that make the new offering interesting — besides removing the optical drive, and adding USB 3.0. They've also made NVIDIA GPUs the standard for these new iMacs, so you should be able to take better advantage of CUDA acceleration in Adobe programs like Premiere and After Effects.
One of big breakthroughs is a brand new screen that is supposedly less reflective — which I'm sure will make many folks happy. Here's a little bit about that screen:
The new iMac display is not set behind the cover glass — it's right up against it. The LCD itself is 5 mm thinner than before, and we used an advanced process called full lamination to eliminate a 2-mm gap between the LCD and the glass, something that has never been done on a display this large. Although it may not seem like much, those few millimeters are enough to make images look as if they're leaping off the glass. Full lamination has a second major benefit: It eliminates the reflection of light off the LCD panel and off the back of the display's cover glass. But we also figured out how to reduce reflection off the front of the glass without compromising color quality. Instead of applying an antireflective coating to the glass in a conventional way, we adapted a process used on smaller surfaces like camera lenses and fighter pilots' helmets. It's called plasma deposition, and it involves coating the glass with layers of silicon dioxide and niobium pentoxide so precise and so thin they're measured in atoms. The result: an astounding 75 percent reduction in reflectivity — and vibrant, accurate colors.
OK, so some of that is marketing speak, but the one thing you can say about Apple is they are always doing something groundbreaking related to making screens fit into thinner housings. Another interesting tidbit they mentioned, is that each display is being put through its own extensive color correction test before shipping, ensuring that the displays are all individually calibrated. That might not seem like a big deal, but Apple has always delivered stunning color performance, and this will most likely remove any inconsistencies.
Apple is also introducing new hybrid drives into the iMacs and the Mac Mini. They take an SSD and a traditional spinning drive and fuse them together for better performance, which they've aptly named Fusion Drives. This technology is not new, but it's certainly new for Apple and OSX, and it will give you all the benefits of having a fast SSD drive (faster load times and a speedier workflow overall) but without sacrificing on total space. They are offering configurations that go all the way to 3TB with these Fusion Drives, so you won't have to choose between speed or space — you can have both.
The new 13″ Macbook Pro interestingly enough has a similar resolution as the 15″ computer, 2560 x 1600 vs. 2880 x 1800. Obviously not all programs are Retina-capable yet, but it definitely makes the case for high resolution films above 1080p. If 2K and above screens become commonplace, why not release your film in multiple higher-res versions similar to Tom Lowe's Timescapes? They've also added USB 3.0 to this computer as well as the rest of the product lines, including the Mac Mini. It's a relief that Apple has decided to support both Thunderbolt and USB 3, as there have been far more devices (namely external hard drives) made for the USB 3 spec.
Apple still has not delivered a new Mac Pro, but as Tim Cook said, we will probably see a new one in 2013. How about Retina iMacs? There's a good chance that Apple has not been able to get the price down on the screens for those, but when they do, it's likely we will be seeing a 4K or 5K screen. That would surely be a must-buy for a lot of RED owners, actually being able to see their footage on a native or close-to-native screen for only a few thousand dollars. Only time will tell though, we'll just have to wait until 2013 to find out.
You can read more about the announcements and pre-order or order these products by going to the Apple website.
What do you guys think? Which announcements are you interested in? What do you think about the new iMacs?

not to mention background 422 transcoding while you edit.
yo dawg, i heard you like proxy editing, so we put proxy in your proxy so you can edit while you edit

Wow, Adobe had that for how long?
john jeffreys on 10.23.12 @ 7:10PM
Nobody cares, FCP X is miles ahead of your 90′s crap that you hold on to desperately.
moebius22 on 10.23.12 @ 9:54PM
LoL, that's probably the last time you used Adobe.
Swested on 10.23.12 @ 10:51PM
I still use AfterEffects pretty regularly, although that's mostly out of habit. Stepping into Premiere, however, feels like something out the dial-up era. It's ghastly.

john jeffreys on 10.24.12 @ 1:52PM
I have a cat, your argument is invalid
Brendan on 10.23.12 @ 6:52PM
I think you are forgetting that FCP X is imovie pro. Time to switch to AVID.
john jeffreys on 10.23.12 @ 7:08PM
Avid is for dinosaurs, like you. What are you, like 40? Jesus.
It's good to know that I'm not the only one you're kind of an ass to John
john jeffreys on 10.23.12 @ 9:36PM
dude im the nicest guy ever to you i read your blog and shit
I am happy you read my blog, but idk man, the comment you left on the post about my pocket guides was pretty snarky. Afterward I went and read some of the comments you've left on this site before. I'm not saying you're wrong with anything you say, but a bit of tact might go a long way.
David J. Fulde on 10.24.12 @ 12:43AM
I honestly can't tell if John is just joking and sarcasm is terrible through the internet, trolling and really attempting to annoy people, or if he actually stands by what he's saying. 'Tis the mysteries of the internet, really.
john jeffreys on 10.24.12 @ 1:24AM
if i said i was a troll account, then i would cease to be a troll account. an interesting paradox exists here

Actually, 10.0.6 is a story worth its own. TONS of features I have been waiting for. Awesome!
Peter on 10.23.12 @ 6:08PM
I think the important question on the iMac for us is do the video cards in there offer CUDA acceleration that's good enough for our post needs. If so, how much value would the Mac Pro be in a file-based native workflow?
All the new iMacs use NVIDIA graphics cards also! Great news for us Adobe CS6 editors and Motion Graphics artists!
Alex Mand on 10.23.12 @ 7:32PM
Yes!!! That's great indeed for us CS6 editors…
trackofalljades on 10.23.12 @ 8:40PM
I'm confused, I thought one of the big changes with CS6 was that Mercury was supported on Open CL, and not just CUDA…as in a lot more Mac models would be able to edit better? Not the case? Where did I read that…
Logan B on 10.24.12 @ 12:25AM
That might be true. But NVIDIA Cuda will still run faster then OPEN CL, that's why people are stoked about Nvidia cards showing up
I'm pretty intrested in the new iMacs. I know that better aesthetics do not increase performance but this thin design is really astonishing! Nothing to say specwise, I'm sure they'll perform seamlessly.
john jeffreys on 10.23.12 @ 9:42PM
at the very least, it'll save space on your desk
That is a plus, given the mess that is my desk!
Javier on 10.23.12 @ 6:13PM
What about the new imac Nvidia gtx cards are they better for cs6due to cuda support?
Javier on 10.23.12 @ 6:16PM
I think the new imac at full it,s better deal than the actual Macpro.
Gareth on 10.23.12 @ 6:20PM
I'll probably get an iMac but what do you think of HP's computers like the Z620?
sebastian on 10.23.12 @ 8:41PM
Yeah I cant figure out if I wanna stick with Mac (All my software is for mac e.g. AE & C4D, although there are options for switching) or if I should buy a real workstation from hp or dell. I guess I would be getting more power for the money, right?
David J. Fulde on 10.24.12 @ 12:45AM
nofilmschool DOES have a great resource for building a hackintosh (Power/price of a PC but letting you run OSX)
Javi M on 10.24.12 @ 11:12AM
That's good in case you don't need fast support on your computer
I'm really souring on Apple. I'm reluctant to invest in much more of their tech since they're blatantly heading down the path of making consumer based technology that is all dependent on an iTunes/AppStore hub, and which is gradually phasing out support for all competitor products.
Not to mention to pure arrogance that's oozing from their TV spots lately, only to be contradicted within the following 12 months, if not 12 weeks. Look at the recent iPhone 5 ads, which boast "who needs a screen bigger than this? this is just common sense". 6 weeks later, they release the iPad Mini.
But, who's gonna call the biggest, most successful business of today out?
Viva la Hackintosh!
What a lot of people might want to know is, could you use the 27″ iMac to work with native RAW from the Black Magic Cinema Camera – is it going to cut the mustard there?
Because if it does, that combination would be, financially speaking, very attractive.
Nygel bissel on 10.24.12 @ 12:50AM
You are absolutely right … IPad mini today after Steve job publicly talk shit about the kindle ….
JkMorganChase on 10.23.12 @ 6:37PM
APPLE is a joke, and the company is really comical these days. What interesting to me is the push for a better higher resolution screen when they dont even include blu ray bays/drives in their technolgy. The company will find every excuse or walk around answer for not including the technology. This is the same company that took two years to include copy and past in the ios moble platform.
Swested on 10.23.12 @ 6:52PM
Blu-ray? Who the hell cares about physical formats anymore? If you really want it, buy an external drive.
redfitz on 10.23.12 @ 6:44PM
I'm increasingly questioning what the best computing set up is these days. I'm committed to the Apple ecosystem and have an 8-core MacPro (2008) which, while still adequate, is showing it's age particularly in light of things like Thunderbolt, USB 3.0, HDMI, and flash.
Given the refreshes announced today, what are people's thoughts about the best Apple set up for those of us without huge financial resources? Is it the new iMac? Is it the MacMini with lots of externals? Is it a MacBook Pro with an external monitor and peripherals?
It seems like NoFilmSchool.com is a good forum for this kind of discussion.
Swested on 10.23.12 @ 7:01PM
Unfortunately, Apple keeps making this tougher and tougher with every round of updates. There's no clear answer, really, as each model has huge pros and cons in terms of editing. And meanwhile, speaking of Pros, the Mac Pro remains completely neglected for yet another product cycle. I'm not into the whole Hackintosh thing when it comes to professional work, so that's not an option either.
I'd say Apple has about another year left before it needs to release a product targeted directly at the pro market, otherwise video editors will really have to consider PCs again.
I'm not terribly tech savvy when it comes to computers, but what kind of power can you get from networking a few mac minis in comparison to one MacPro tower? Obviously you'd need some kind of workaround to make up for the lack of high end graphics cards, but shouldn't the divided workload make up for the shortfall in pure grunt? Or are the transfer speeds on thunderbolt still not fast enough?
I've heard of people running an offline/online set up like that, working off proxys on one system and doing the final render shared over a few smaller computers, but I don't know enough to know whether that's an effective solution, or just a cheap workaround.
trackofalljades on 10.23.12 @ 8:47PM
The answer to a question like this is completely dependent on the exact specifics of a use case. Some application and needs can be handled very well through parallel/grid computing, others would experience no speed increase whatsoever…also you need to consider how much power you're using (buying a bunch of old G5 machines is cheap and they have a lot of FLOPS, but how much do they cost to air condition and operate…ah right that's why they're cheap).
JkMorganChase on 10.23.12 @ 10:45PM
agree especially considering the fact that CS6 has unlimited multi cam features that are only limited by hardware, Macs are really getting long in tooth and while screen resolution is "nice and all", at the end of the day regular hd is suffiecient enough to edit on. Retina displays on just a decent computer is like trying to turn a "eye candy" only beautiful woman who has no skills other than looking beautiful and trying to turn her into a house wife, it just doesnt work in the long haul and you end up spending more money making up for lesser situation.
I've switched back to a PC after 10 years on MAC (FCP 7). Signed up to Adobe Cloud and have all the apps on both my editing PC (Windows 7) and MacBook Air.
Got an i7 3.4 with dedicated graphics card, lots of RAM, memory etc. for $700.
Apple was just too expensive to get a really fast machine……and Premiere Pro works great on Windows with the DSLR & RED footage that I use.
marklondon on 10.24.12 @ 12:26AM
Finally some sense.
We use Premiere, After Effects, Avid and FCP7. We make a lot of the tv and movies you watch. Nothing announced today, re hardware or software makes Apple compelling for enterprise or for the single professional user. I understand people are using FCPX, I've recommended it to some, but it literally doesn't exist in the current pro environment. A couple of iterations on, when we're all shooting RAW for 4K broadcast, who knows.
Razor on 10.24.12 @ 6:02PM
FCPX is for at-home-hobbyists. All the pros use Avid or Premiere. Avid have been in poor financial health for a while, so no point in spending time learning Media Composer if its future is in question. Abobe Anywhere (coming in 2013) is going to create a whole new career field for remote editors, and become the new driver in client collaboration.
MARK11 on 10.26.12 @ 12:22AM
Dude…you should list exact specs on machines, software, etc., you guys use to create those projects: movies, tv shows. I'm directing-editng my first low bud indie feature since film school and am trying to get a solid list together of all needed for post. Thx.
D.B. on 10.23.12 @ 7:57PM
I've been waiting for a new cinema display that I hoped was coming out today. Now what to do? I imagine it will be along the lines of the new iMac so definitely worth waiting for…anybody have any ideas? Nothing over at Mac Rumors.
trackofalljades on 10.23.12 @ 8:50PM
I'm very interested by the newly retina-equipped 13″ notebook, but I'm concerned about the same thing that concerns me about the other 13″ model, no switching video. If there's no NVIDIA chipset on board to kick into "high gear" when editing, just how frustrating (or not) will those Intel 4000 graphics be? FCP X is one thing, but what if you want to use Premiere Pro CS6 or other CS6 applications that involve the Mercury Playback Engine?
I read somewhere (it's driving me nuts, digging through browser history now) that the inclusion of OpenCL in addition to CUDA support in CS6 was going to expand the pool of Mac hardware that can most effectively be used with Adobe applications…but the source was thin on details. Is gaining all those extra pixels in a smaller notebook really that much of a dream if you can't get Mercury acceleration? Someone who's more familiar with all this, please let me know!
Markus on 10.25.12 @ 7:47AM
I also am interested in upgrading my 13″ Macbook to one of the Retina display models, but it appears Apple is protecting models higher in their lineup by only offering Intel HD 4000 graphics on all of the 13″ Macbook. Apparently, Apple doesn't think 1700 USD is enough to get you a laptop with a dedicated graphics card so you need to step up to one of the 15″ models starting at $1800.
good thing some of us got a hackintosh no thank to koo :D
carlos on 10.23.12 @ 9:28PM
FCPX now supports R3D natively
Brendan on 10.23.12 @ 9:32PM
Who owns 13″ MBP for editing work? I was considering purchasing one of these for basic REDiting, but I've seen over on reduser that there are complaints of REDcine being to small for even 15″ MBPs.
john jeffreys on 10.23.12 @ 9:39PM
the regular 13″ is kinda cramped…most of my friends have one but they are not filmmakers, just like artists in general and stuff. It's nice for viewing dailies and stuff, but yeah, the screen is barely over 720p. The retina sounds interesting for mobile editing though
Swested on 10.23.12 @ 10:59PM
13″ is basically impossibly tight for video editing. I have a 15″ hi-res @ 1680 x 1050 (not retina), which is the smallest resolution I feel comfortable using as a primary editing display. The 13″ Retina seems like an interesting choice, although I worry about the integrated graphics.
I have a 13″ 2010 MBP and I agree it's just a little too tight for NLE programs. Using external monitors is my solution, but then that kind of makes the whole 'shoot anywhere, edit anywhere' appeal of the macbook a bit moot.
I would say that even the latest 13″ Retina would be pushing it for RED, dual processors and only 8GB or RAM is probably not enough. Thinking of upgrading myself as I'm starting to get a lot more projects where we have the option to shoot RAW and R3D, I do cherish portability, but it looks to me like the new iMac might be a more sensible option (for those not made of money).
I know what you mean – I just at least want a way to travel light when I have to shoot somewhere for a week – my 2006 MBP can't comprehend 1080p footage, and lugging my iMac around would be insane! Maybe the refurbished 17″ or even the newer, non-retina 15″ will do for basic editing work and dumping.
trackofalljades on 10.24.12 @ 10:34AM
Any of the last few 15″ models would make a far better choice for video editing and similar use cases because, as far as I know, none of the 13″ models (including these brand new ones) have switching video. The larger models have more room for a second, hotter GPU and the extra battery capacity it demands so they can shift back and forth between NVIDIA and Intel chipsets. The smaller ones are Intel only (not so hot, in both meanings of the phrase).
morty on 10.24.12 @ 12:12AM
Why can I not find any mention anywhere on line of the processors in the IMAC? Is the i7 IVY BRIDGE?
How good is it in actual numbers compared to Sandy Bridge? You think there will be a 6 core processor set in iMAC someday?
James on 10.26.12 @ 5:13AM
Check out Primate Labs – they benchmark all of the new Apple machines
Michael on 10.24.12 @ 12:55AM
I was looking into building Koo's Hac Pro for a new editing/color grading workstation, but was waiting to see what the new iMac line would offer. I'm a little hesitant about building a hackintosh, but at the same time i'd like to build something powerful enough to work with 4k footage. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I think it depends on how these nVidia GPUs in the iMacs benchmark. Yes, they're nVidia which is great for CUDA and other visual work, but they are the MOBILE version of nVidia cards — primarily designed for laptops. The 680MX looks like no slouch; two Thunderbolt ports gives you the ability to expand externally to a certain extent; and 32GB of RAM should be adequate for just about anything (though I'm sure it will come at a price premium compared to buying it yourself) — but if the base 27″ model with a Core i5 and 8GB of RAM starts at $2k, how much will a fully spec'd-out one run? If it's $4k, at that point you're in Mac Pro territory… and I hate the idea of having to throw out the monitor when you want to upgrade the computer.
Michael on 10.24.12 @ 2:42PM
Thanks Ryan. I'm gonna go with your hacintosh because I know it's capable of handling what I need at a better price. Hopefully one day when I have a bigger budget Apple will have released a better MacPro!
David Harris on 10.25.12 @ 11:08PM
Excuse my ignorance but can't you just use an older imac as a second monitor to the new laptop you upgrade to?
David S. on 10.24.12 @ 1:40AM
YES. We have voiced our concerns, and Apple has finally been listening to what pro users really need – thinner desktops.
Mariano on 10.24.12 @ 4:11AM
…it`s getting very easy to spot amateurs, these days, not only do they still use toys/apple but they seem to be proud about it…must`ve been the same type of proudness the old film editors had about their steenbecks or moviolas…
dataphile on 10.24.12 @ 5:46AM
Maybe the marketing dept. should remove the fake glare from the image as well :)
Paul Abrahams on 10.24.12 @ 5:46AM
They put cuda's in there and hybrid SSD thingy's? I am definitely getting a new imac.
TehRandax on 10.24.12 @ 8:11AM
$20 says that we can't replace the RAM ourselves in the iMac.
morty on 10.24.12 @ 9:05AM
Ill take that bet
Greg B on 10.25.12 @ 6:14AM
The new iMacs will be upgradeable. You will be able to upgrade to 32gb RAM max :)
The 27-inch has user-accessible RAM slots, the 21.5-inch doesn't.
Once again Apple does what they are best at: Saying that what they are doing is revolutionary and convincing lots of people to buy the 'new thing' again this year.
Correction: the iPad gained a Lightning connector (like the new iPhone 5), not a Thunderbolt port.
Joe Marine on 10.25.12 @ 4:17PM
Thank you, it's incredibly confusing that they've named both of them in a similar way – Thunderbolt and Lightning.
Agreed. Even more baffling since there's no such thing as a "thunderbolt" in real life but there is a "lightning bolt". Not Apple's shining moment in naming.
Daniel Mimura on 11.1.12 @ 9:21PM
Ha! Yeah, they've had some naming problems lately.
I'll be getting one of these based on the fact that it has an NVIDIA PCIe 3.0 cuda card in it. It may not be the best card on the entire planet but it's better than my current iMac which does not have an NVIDIA card in it. I'm not complaining too much about it. I just get it and keep working.
David on 10.31.12 @ 12:01AM
What is the best option today if you have around 3000 usd? a Mac Pro? an Imac? a built hackintosh? an Alienware Aurora or another PC?
Daniel Mimura on 11.1.12 @ 9:25PM
A thinner iMac? Who cares? We don't have to carry them in our backpacks or pockets.
I'm actually a little worried about it b/c when thinner and smaller becomes so incredibly important to them, cooling and higher power gets sacrificed.
The fusion drives and Nvidia chips look good though…

G. K. Chesterton on "The Patriotic Idea" an excerpt posted on (Ignatius Press)
The scepticism of the last two centuries has attacked patriotism as it has attacked all the other theoretic passions of mankind, and in the case of patriotism the attack has been interesting and respectable because it has come from a set of modern writers who are not mere sceptics, but who really have an organic belief in philosophy and politics. Tolstoy, perhaps the greatest of living Europeans, has succeeded in founding a school which, whatever its faults (and they are neither few nor small), has all the characteristics of a great religion. Like a great religion, it is positive, it is public, above all, it is paradoxical. The Tolstoyan enjoys asserting the hardest parts of his belief with that dark and magnificent joy which has been unknown in the world for nearly four hundred years. He enjoys saying, "No man should strike a blow even to defend his country," in the same way that Tertullian enjoyed saying,"Credo quia impossible."
Chesterton and the Great Heresy of Our Time (First Things)
In an interview with Vatican Radio, Father Ian Boyd, President of the G.K. Chesterton Institute for Faith and Culture, explained why Chesterton's writings are more powerful now than when he published them:
"What strikes me most of all in reading Chesterton is that his real audience is today's audience. When he wrote, the things he described must have seemed fantastic to his contemporaries, but we live in a time when we've seen his prophecies fulfilled. I think really Chesterton therefore is a writer, a journalist, who speaks it chiefly to us. I was thinking for example of a comment he made a long time ago, when he said that the next great heresy is going to be an attack on morality, and especially on sexual morality. He said not to be so afraid of the Russians and the Bolsheviks. He said, 'The madness of tomorrow is far more in Manhattan than in Moscow.'"
"He believed that a consumerist culture had a greater power to undermine morality than any totalitarian system. He said when real evil comes, it always comes from within."

Financial Reform Advocates Lobby the Lobbyists
Tuesday, May 18, 2010 at 6:00 am
On Monday, with Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.) promising a final vote on financial regulatory reform in the next few days, rather than weeks, thousands descended on K Street in Washington, D.C., to lobby the lobbyists.
[Economy1] The union giants SEIU and AFL-CIO as well as community organizing umbrella group National People's Action held a "Showdown on K Street," bringing around two thousand workers and organizers to protest against big Wall Street banks, the lobbyists they have hired to attempt to water down the Senate bill and continued economic strife more generally. Indeed, the event ended up more of an expression of sustained populist anger at the sour economy and banks' $1.4 million-a-day lobbying effort than a protest against specific practices or provisions in the bill.
It started on Sunday when more than a hundred activists protested on the front lawns of two executives: Bank of America's Gregory Baer, the company's counsel for regulatory policy, and Peter Scher, J.P. Morgan Chase's executive for government relations. At Baer's home, NPA noted that Bank of America — after requiring a $45 billion taxpayer bailout — has spent $16 million lobbying against Sen. Chris Dodd's (D-Conn.) regulatory reform bill.
Adolfo Abreu, an organizer for NPA who came down for the events from his home in the Bronx, noted that Baer came home while organizers were occupying his front doorstep, with one woman describing how Bank of America continued to attempt to collect payment from her on a phone call 30 minutes after she learned of the death of her son. Abreu said that Baer "started yelling at us, like, 'Get out of here!'"
"These banks are way too involved in the economy, and they have been way too involved in protesting this bill," Abreu said. "We are focusing on people, not people with privilege. We need these rights."
At 11 a.m. on Monday morning, dozens held a vocal protest outside of the downtown offices of the Podesta Group, the powerful Democratic lobbying shop headed by Tony Podesta, who worked in the Clinton administration and has earned the left's ire for lobbying against Democratic priorities. Protesters shouted, "Tony Podesta is hurting America!"
And at noon, the protest started in full, with approximately 2,000 gathering in McPherson Square. They held bright hand-painted signs and shut down traffic, as they did when protesting on Wall Street itself last week. Joel Hershey, a middle-school science teacher in Syracuse, N.Y., took to the microphone to fire the crowd up. He said he had taught for four years, and three weeks ago heard that he "would not be going back to school" — one victim of municipal layoffs due to budget cutting. He noted that his wife and he are "just two of the 300,000 teachers that could lose their jobs in the next year….devastating news for America's children."
The crowd then marched to and occupied the busy intersection at 14th and K Streets — "lobbyist central," as one SEIU volunteer put it. The protesters, soaked by pouring rain at that point, had set up a 20-foot-tall paper-and-wood pulling the marionette strings of Congress and passed around whistles and drums.
Al Marshall of Oakland, Calif., took to the loudspeaker as the protesters engaged in a "sit in." (The actual sitting part did not happen, with the pavement soaked.) With tears rolling down his cheeks, the construction inspector explained that he had purchased a "fixer-upper" but that he and his wife had struggled to make payments to Wells Fargo after she lost her job. The bank reclaimed the home as a foreclosure after "laughing" at him when he asked for a loan modification. "There shouldn't be a homeless person anywhere in America," Marshall said.
Ed Whalen, a member of the Sheet Metal Workers' International Association Local 100 in Baltimore, affiliated with the AFL-CIO said he was there to protest such "financial anarchy."
"The downturn has affected everybody, but it has proportionately affected the construction industry and my line of work because every part of the business relies on financing," Whalen said. "There's no getting around it. I'm at a loss for words to described what's wrong here."
Later on, the protest split up with smaller groups visiting the Hill and even interrupting goings-on at local bank branches. SEIU protesters, for instance, flooded a Bank of America branch on Capitol Hill, shouting "Bank of America — Bad for America!"
Another group of 100 protesters — many part of the Alliance to Develop Power, a Massachusetts group — showed up unannounced at the Russell Senate Office Building offices of Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.). The protesters complained that Brown had campaigned against the Troubled Asset Relief Program and contended that he now "does big banks' bidding in the Senate." The protesters brought a "big tent" into the cramped space (and then asked staffers "Who's in your big tent!") and eventually convinced office members to arrange a meeting between the senator and protesters.

Spreading key messages to the rest of the nation is critical but the media is not doing it. They're fanning us with the wrong noise. America truly wants to jump on board to promote the important and serious statements of integrity that exist but we need more powerful instruments to get out the word.

Let me point out something however. The banks will not be successful in this endeavor unless they actually have properties going to foreclosure sale; a LOT of properties going to foreclosure. The banks won't achieve the foreclosure numbers it needs to make this policy work with a broad policy of encouraging loan modification. It seems transparent that this is why recently so many of my colleagues and their clients are failing to achieve en masse positive modification results.
