Game Review by Lambda00 on Nov 16th, 2012
10/10 for an alpha. Has a few issues so far that I've noticed, but nothing too bad. One of the more annoying ones is that my joystick's throttle tends to autobind to any key if it is not placed dead center when binding keys (I am using a Thrustmaster 16000M). Additionally, I am not sure if it's just me or if the keys simply don't stay bound after quitting and relaunching the game.

Frankly, the Most Ambitious version of Civilization I've ever seen!!
Trust me, it has to be that good to keep my attention for so long.
Completely blown away by the care of the community and depth of gameplay shown in this mod. C2C redefines CIV so much that it has the momentum to set a much higher bar for Civ 6. It's already so close ; it could inspire Civ 7! You have to check out the forums and play it for more than a game or 2. It radically evolves monthly!!

Generic shooting game, what Can I say.
I took it back and got it refunded since my PC copy had the "Mass Effect 2 on disk" issue, which is hilarious. They gave me my money back yet I still have the game playable. Wal-Mart is duuuuumb
I'm not a COD fan, but it's a little better than the last game, but it's still a run of the mill shooter, I didn't have any big expectations for it. and honestley, It's so buggy and full of **** that I can't say I'm surprised it was another flop

Mod Review by magachs on Nov 16th, 2012
I'll be concise: For a final release, this still has one too many bugs that need to be ironed out. Other than that, excellent mod. Could still use some more maps though.

5/16/15: won't start, got AAA service, jumped, drove home ok. 5/20/15: started, died in seconds, towed to dealer, replaced fuel pumps. 5/22/15: four wheel problem yellow light showed up, called the dealer, told me it's ok, it happened to them often. Might need battery replacement soon. 5/23/15: "four wheel drive system failure" message showed up when started, along with that yellow four wheel signal. Drove to buy something, won't start when coming back. AAA jumped and got home ok. Now afraid to drive it out. Any suggestions? Thank you! Cindy - Visitor

Find out how to create compelling architectural designs using the modeling tools in Autodesk Revit software. In this course, author Paul F. Aubin demonstrates the entire building information modeling (BIM) workflow, from creating the design model to publishing a completed project. The course also covers navigating the Revit interface; modeling basic building features such as walls, doors, and windows; working with sketch-based components such as roofs and stairs; annotating designs with dimensions and callouts; and plotting and exporting your drawings.
We've seen many different kinds of walls so far in this course, some were generic walls showing only one layer of material; some show brick, or steel studs, or drywall, or even concrete. Would you be surprised to learn that all of these walls belong to the same family? Walls are a system family, and all of the walls mentioned here are part of the basic wall system family. System families are built into the system. They're built into Revit. Most major building components are actually system families. This includes walls, floors, roofs, ceilings, and a variety of other objects.
This means you and I cannot change the system family itself. We cannot rename it, we can't delete it, or we can't add a new one; however, we can manipulate the family types for any system family. So when we have one wall made out of brick and another one made out of concrete, they both belong to the basic wall family, but they're two different types. So in this movie we're going to explore how to make our own type of basic wall. And so I'm in a file here called Basic Walls, and I'm going to zoom in on the toilet room area right here.
And I want to start off by showing you that each of the walls that we have here in the file are actually basic walls. So if I highlight this exterior wall, you can see the tooltip says that it's Basic Wall: Exterior - Brick on Metal Stud. If I highlight this one, it says that it's Basic Wall: Interior 4 7/8" Partitioned. So you notice that both of them are basic walls. This one here in the center is also Basic Wall 4 7/8" Partitioned; in fact, most of these are that wall type.
So what I want to do here is I'm looking at this thin little wall here and I'm thinking that's a little too insubstantial for a wet wall between those plumbing fixtures, so I need something with a little bit more thickness and room to run all the plumbing. So what I'm going to do is create my own custom wall type to use in that location. So I select the wall and over here on the Properties palette I'm going to click the Edit Type button. Now when I do that, that will bring up the Type Properties dialog, and we've actually been here before. And what I want to caution you on is make sure that you don't dive right in and start making edits.
For example, suppose I went to edit here and I'm going to do something that will be really noticeable. I'm going to change the thickness of this component here to 2 feet. I'm going to click OK. And I'll click OK in any error messages that appear, and one more time. And that's probably not quite the modification that I had in mind. It's pretty dramatic and unless I'm going for the medieval-castle look, it's probably not quite what I had intended. So I'm going to undo that. You can click the Undo button up here or go to Ctrl+Z. And I'm going to re-select this wall and go to Edit Type. And so what you always want to make sure that you do first is that you duplicate that wall before you start making changes, so let's do that.
And most firms have some sort of an office standard for naming, so I encourage you to follow whatever that standard is in your own company. For this example I'm just simply going to use a descriptive name, so I'm going to call it Plumbing Wall, click OK. And then where I really want to focus my attention is in the structure of the wall because that's where all the components take place. So I'm going to click Edit structure button. We've been in here before, but I want to kind of recap a lot of the settings here now. So the first thing I'm going to do is down here at the bottom, I'm going to click the Preview button. The Preview button is a really handy tool because it allows me to see a graphical preview of the structure of the wall.
Now over here we have our layers. So each component of the wall is actually considered a layer. You recall that we have an exterior side. We have an interior side. Now it might be a little easier to read these layers if I move this dialog over a little and widen it up, like so. Believe it or not, this is actually a new feature here in 2013, and one that I personally am quite pleased about. Now we've got our core boundary here and as you may recall, the core boundary is just simply the separation between the structural part of the wall and the nonstructural part of the wall, So what's holding up the wall versus the finishes that are applied to either side.
Now in this case layer 3 is our only core component. That's the only component that's in the core, and then we have layer 1 and 5 which are on the outside of the core. Now if you look at the preview over here, these green lines indicate the core boundary, so that's a nice graphical way of seeing that. Now what I want to do is add a couple of layers to this wall. I want an additional metal stud layer and then I want an airspace between the two metal studs. So I'm going to select layer 3 and click Insert. When you select the layer and you insert, the new layer goes above the one that you had selected.
So notice that I get a new layer that's using the By Category material. It's 0 thickness and it went in above the structural layer. So what I want to do here is actually change the thickness of that layer to match the metal stud down below. Now I can type this manually if I want to. There is a bunch of ways we can do that. I can do 0 feet 3 inches 5/8ths of an inch, so I did 0, space, 3, space, 5/8. I'm going to enter that. You can also do 3.625 and use the Inch symbol, or you can use any combination really of the above.
But that gives me that second component that's at the same thickness and you could see it over here in the preview. Now over here in this far column it says Structural Material. This is a new feature in 2013 as well. We can say which of these stud materials is actually going to be the structural one. Now you can check one or the other, but only one component can actually be designated as the structural component, and your structural engineer would actually run his calculations from that component. So in this case I'm just going to leave the default one. Now in the Material column we get to designate what this component is actually made of. And By Category is more generic, so what I want to do is make this one match the Metal Stud layer below.
So I just simply click here and that makes a little Browse button appear, and I'm going to click on that. This will open up the Material Browser. Now, the Material Browser has a bunch of materials that are built into this file. All I want to do here is locate the Metal Stud layer and click OK. And you see it will apply that same material to the previous one. Now, let me direct your attention up here to some of this information here. Currently, our total thickness is 8 1/2 inches.
That's just the sum total of these four physical components. Obviously the core boundary is 0, so that's not part of the calculation. Beneath that we have the R value, the Resistance value of the wall, and the Thermal Mass. These two are new features here in 2013. In order to take advantage of these features, the materials that we choose from off the Material list have to have these thermal properties assigned to them. And because I'm using an out-of-the-box template that came with Revit 2013, I've got those values already assigned to my materials.
If you're upgrading a project from a previous release, those values might not be filled in and therefore this information might not be calculating. But this is really handy to have this information because if you later do energy analysis on your building model, you'll have all of that data at your fingertips, so it's a really nice feature here in 2013. Let's go ahead and select layer 4 and insert again. Remember, the layer you select, it gets inserted above that. And I'm going to change that material. And this one is going to be a miscellaneous airspace layer, so there it is right there. Select that.
I'm going to make the thickness of this 5 1/2 inches, so I can do 5, space, 1/2 inches, or I could do 5.5 inches. It's up to you. It's not a structural material. And then over here you'll see that all three of these layers I'll say that their function is structure. Now if you click there, that's a dropdown list. And what is included on that list is built into the system, so there are five numbered functions and a membrane layer. The numbered functions are in order of their importance, or their priority, so Structure has the most importance, so the most priority, and Finish 2 has the least.
Where this comes into play is when the two walls intersect one another and how the different layers in the two walls that are intersecting will interact with one another. So anything that you assign to structure will interrupt or pass through a layer that's a lower number. Well, in this case I don't want the air gap to have the same amount of priority as the structure, so I'm going to drop it down here to a Thermal/Air layer and that's going to give it a priority number 3. When I click OK, and OK again, you are going to see immediately that the wall increases in thickness.
Okay, so that's the first immediate effect that we see here. Now I'm going to go to the zoom here and I'm going to zoom in a little closer on this intersection. Because we're in a coarse level of detail, we're not seeing any of those internal components yet. But I can just come down here to the view control bar, click on the level of Detail pop-up and choose either Medium or Fine, and that will display all those internal components. So what you can see here is this is the metal stud layer of the exterior wall and that is joining in and cleaning up nicely with the metal stud layers of this intersecting wall, but the air gap has a line here because it has a lower priority. So that's where we witness what we just changed in the previous dialog.
Now the other thing that I want to point out from the previous dialog is, if you highlight an existing wall and look at the tooltip either onscreen or down at your status bar--remember that Walls is the category: Basic Wall, that's the family: Plumbing Wall. That's the type that we just named it, and then the final value says R42. That is actually telling you this R value that was calculated here at the top of the screen. So if your wall has an R value, you'll be able to tell what it is just by simply hovering over the wall.
So basic walls are built into the system. They are a system family. All walls are a part of a system family, and basic walls are just simply layered walls, walls with multiple layers of material. We can easily create our own layered walls by going to the Edit Type, duplicating, and then adding and modifying the layers that we need.

Had a great experience staying at Fei's apartment. It was cozy, clean, and organized. The location couldn't have been any better.
Construction noise all around!
Before I booked I asked to the host if the apartment was quiet, actually it was my only concern.
She said, no problem it is a quiet residential area.
When I arrived there I discovered that there was no one; no two, there were three constructions sites right beside the building.
I complained, and even I filmed a video with the situation.
Not satisfactory respond, neither the host or Airbnb.
I had no choice but to stay that night because I did my check in late.
I not adding the noise from the street right in front.
If you care about the noise.
This is not your place for at least some months more!!
The apartment suited us perfectly for our overnight stay in HK - very clean, tidy, comfortable and a great location just a couple of minutes walk from cool bars and restaurants in Soho. There was great communication with the host, we were sent very easy to follow instructions ahead of our arrival explaining how to access the building and the apartment, so the check-in/out process was smooth and easy. We would definitely recommend staying here. Thank you for having us!

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply Beautiful,
Mr. P. McCready "egor1983" - See all my reviews
To be honest, there is little else that can be said about this album. It is, to put it mildy, one of the most relaxing, and basically one of the best, albums that money can buy. Always beautiful, sometimes catchy, sometimes romantic, sometimes haunting, with a stunning voice, Enya is perfect to unwind to. After a stressful day Enya's calming tones are just the job. Put it on whilst you go to sleep, in the bath, or with a glass of wine and dinner. This album has been worn out on my cd player, and is most probably the cd I have listened to the most often out of all my cds. There are no filler tracks, each is brilliant, and even though it seems human nature to have favourites, I cannot even pick out which tracks I like the least. It is simply that good. If forced to pick a single favourite it would probably have to be Book of Days, but let that take nothing away from the other 15 tracks. The only letdown is it doesn't have enough tracks on, as it could easily have been made into a double cd incorporating some of her earlier album tracks without detracting slightly from the quality, possibly even including the beautiful theme from Harry's Game, dating back to her days with Clannad (check out the Chicane remix of this by the way - interesting!). If you enjoy this, I would also recommend the brilliant 'A Day without Rain' (if nothing else for the absolutely stunning track wild child) and the Fellowship of the Ring soundtrack for the haunting 'May It Be'. This album is a must, and if it were possible, this album would have 6 stars and beyond. Roll on Enya Greatest Hits II!! Please!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Enya At Her Very best,
One of the most emotional set of songs I ever heard, every song has its own talant with The Celts being one of the best. I got this album when it came out in 1997 but even now it sounds amazing with ever song better than the last. Each song makes your mind open up and images flash through your mind. This album does not lag at the end like others, the last song is amazing and shows a more deep, evil side. Buy this album is your like Enya, and if you dont then get it any way because its pure magic. 10/10 Top Dog.

5.0 out of 5 stars A brilliant nostalgia hit for me,
Ms. Caitlin B. Blanchard "kitten" - See all my reviews
I bought this CD in a abit of a nostalgia run, remembering when I had a self-recorded tape of it, and a lonely little girl used to sit and make up intricate fantasy worlds to the tracks on this album.
It's just as fantastic as I remembered, those fantasy worlds are coming right back, and I feel inspired and alive agin. Amazing what some music can do for a girl, huh?
Enyas music is beautiful, ethereal and haunting, ranging from quit dark sounding tracks to delicate creations.
A must for anyone who loves beauty and beautiful voices.

4.0 out of 5 stars By Far the Brightest Star,
This 16-track compilation is the perfect way to get acquainted with one of the best-selling female entertainers of all time. Paint the Sky with Stars compiles 14 selections; from her debut album (Watermark) to her 1995 output (The Memory of Trees), plus two completely new cuts that sits perfectly well with her old ones. I've always thought of Enya as an album artist, and she mainly is, but she also happens to put out great singles such as the rhythmic flow of "Caribbean Blue," "Anywhere Is" and of course is perhaps biggest hits "Orinoco Flow." This album manages to gather some of her finest moments; from the chanting ballad of "The Celts" to the lilting new cut "Only If." I'm so glad that they included the lovely "Boadicea" and especially the enchanting standard "Marble Halls." All in all, this compilation is the perfect introduction to one of music's finest visionaries. It thrills, but at the same time, keeps you warm.

5.0 out of 5 stars Paint the sky with stars,
Reno (Europe (I'm not gonna say where)) - See all my reviews
There's many stars on in the sky but Enya is the brightest by far. She launched her career in 1987 with the soundtrack to the BBC serie The Celts, but she career actually took of in 1987.
She took the world with storm with her smash hit "Orinoco Flow" and her "debut" album launched in the 50 for more than a year.
"Watermark" the title song is perhaps one of the most beauitful compositions ever composed and "Storms In Africa" is a wonderful journey that takes you to an exotic and relaxing place. Both titles are also included on this compilation.
"Shepherd Moon" came in 1991 and it actually topped "Watermark", it includes the wonderful "Caribbean Blue" without risking, taking the same path as "Orinoco Flow". The Memory Of Trees came in 1995 and A Day Without Rain followed in late 2000. This compilation contains many of Enya's finest moments such as the sweet ballads: "Shepherd Moon", "China Roses" and "Marble Halls". And to the dynamic "Orinoco Flow", "Anywhere Is" and "Book Of Days". And on to the classics, "Watermark", "Boadicea" and "The Celts".
As much as I love this compilation there were some songs that were left out such as, from Watermark: Exile, Evening Falls.
Shepherd Moon: How Can I Keep From Singing, No Holly For Miss Quinn. Memory Of Trees: Pax Deorum, Ahaír Ar Neamh. A Day Without Rain: Wild Child, Deora Ar Mo Chroí. An from the Lord Of The Rings soundtrack: May It Be and perhaps Aníron.

5.0 out of 5 stars Paint the Sky with Five Stars,
Jay "The Amazon Reviewer" (Mauritius) - See all my reviews
The best of of the best from the very best.How better can you get.This is the
"Manchester United" of albums. Every song is like a star player each etched with different skills as per musical composition, ensemble, and memorable lyrics- one of which is my email signature"Ever and always, Always and Ever,Time gave both darkness and dreams to you. Now you can see Spring becomes autumn,leaves become gold, falling from view.
Even if this album were priced at �100, I'd still get it; also one of the few albums, I'd regard as a future heirloom. What's good about it is that you can select any track;Be it Far and Away, China Roses, Storms in Africa etc etc.Too good;I can readily see the 2nd volume of this "Best of" Collection in the near future.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ever flowing...,
Kurt Messick "FrKurt Messick" (London, SW1) - See all my reviews
If you had but one Enya CD to buy, this would be it. You'd be missing much of the richness that comes through on her other albums (hence, I actually advocate you buy all of them in addition to this!), but given limited time and budget, this one is a great collection of many of the essentials of Enya's work.
This is one of my 'desert island discs' (were I to be stranded on a deserted island, this is one of ten the CDs I would opt to take).
This CD contains the highlights from her albums `The Celts', `Watermark', `Caribbean Blue', and `The Memory of Trees'. There are a few variations, however. The rendition of `Book of Days' on this, which was used in the cinematic film `Far and Away', is in English on this CD, whereas on the original album it is in Gaelic.
Classic tracks from the albums are here; this is her 'greatest hits so far' album (I hate the idea of a 'greatest hits' album for a still-productive artist, as if the best is behind). `Orinoco Flow' was her first 'smash' hit (having achieved some notice and popularity from `The Celts', it actually took this song to break into the charts and mainstream notice). The music from this song is flowing and haunting, with an interesting combination of celtic influences and modern recording techniques. Other popularly known songs include `Caribbean Blue', a song in a similar style; `Storms in Africa', an interesting juxtaposition of African and celtic rhythms with interesting lyrical content; `Anywhere is', likewise with overdubs and haunting strains, but a determined beat that is hopeful and progressive.
Lesser known songs from her albums include `The Celts' and `Boadicea', both used as backing tracks for the BBC series on the history of the Celtic peoples.
There are two new tracks on this album, too: `Only if...', which is upbeat with a strong tempo and lyric, and `Paint the Sky with Stars', a beautiful, subdued, melancholy tune which brings the trademark celtic sadness to bear on this, the title track.
Produced with husband Nicky Ryan, this is an excellent collection that gives both a good introduction and a good musical synopsis of a truly remarkable artist, one who has combined ancient and modern in quite innovative ways.

5.0 out of 5 stars Super Spectacular Album,
JR Anderson (England) - See all my reviews
This is one of Enya's finest albums in her long and successful career. It displays 16 of her best tracks, including the lively "Orinoco Flow" and the slow and haunting "Marble Halls".
A brilliant new age album from start to finish.

5.0 out of 5 stars An easy lady to love...,
Neal Reynolds (Indianapolis, Indiana) - See all my reviews
I'm asked on occasion to explain exactly why I feel so immersed in Enya's music. There must be easier things to explain!
She certainly is not likely to appeal to those who want their music loud and with incessant beats of rhythm. Enya's music is for those who find beauty in solitude, in introspection, in breathing in the nature around us. Her music is for those who are willing to shut their eyes and be transported to a mythical green and misty land.
Again, she is not going to appeal to those who feel the words are the important thing, because often, her words are likely to be in language you can not understand. This is fine, because that way the meaning of words are not going to interfere with the beauty of their sound.
This is an introduction to one of the most heavenly women of song, so just settle back and enjoy.

Santa Barbara has recently added another star to its list of celebrity residents — an easel-sized oil painting by Eugène Delacroix (1798-1863), one of the most revered French painters in the history of art.
The canvas, which features the subject of "The Last Words of the Emperor Marcus Aurelius," recently surfaced in a Santa Barbara private collection, and after a few years of scholarly and technical examination was authenticated by Eik Kahng, Santa Barbara Museum of Art assistant director and chief curator.
It will debut in the museum's fall exhibition "Delacroix and the Matter of Finish," from Oct. 27 through Jan. 26, and will be published for the first time in the accompanying catalog.
Just how did this work get overlooked for more than a century? The lack of signature on the painting is not uncommon among works by Delacroix. The artist often retained cherished paintings in his studio, keeping them for future reference or to give to friends as gifts.
Experts say the composition — that of philosopher-emperor Marcus Aurelius on his deathbed, commending his son, Commodus, to his most faithful officers and supporters — is absolutely by Delacroix, who painted a monumental, nearly life-size version for the Salon of 1845, now hanging at the Musée des Beaux-Arts, Lyon, France.
In recent years, Delacroix has probably received most notoriety for his Orientalist pictures — such as "Collision of Arab Horsemen" (1843-44) and "The Fanatics of Tangier" (1857), both featured in SBMA's exhibition. The subjects from his Moroccan travels have been of great interest to post-colonial scholars. These works, with their bold brushwork and exotic subject matter, also fit more easily into the Romantic style for which Delacroix is best known. Yet the artist was also drawn to highly dramatic moments in Greek and Roman history, and frequently refers to the writings of the stoic philosopher-emperor, Marcus Aurelius in his personal diary.
When Kahng finally saw the work in a private collection in Santa Barbara, she initially assumed it was another preparatory sketch for the monumental version in Lyon.
"But as I studied the painting at length, it became clear that this was not a study so much as a variation that subtly reinterprets the psychology of its subject matter. The relative degree of finish within the painting derives … from Delacroix's wish to simplify the emotional dynamics in concentrating on just four of the figures rather than all nine… [and] the diffused light of the Santa Barbara variant is quite distinct from the more theatrically lit prime version," noted Kahng.
In addition to recognizing Delacroix's hand in the new found Santa Barbara painting, Kahng also sought to find the link between Delacroix and the dramatic subject depicted, for which, curiously, there existed no immediate visual precedent.
Through the exhibition and catalog, Kahng hopes to open discussion on the attribution problems that have plagued Delacroix studies, particularly given the artist's reliance on students as collaborators. Some of these students made copies of Delacroix's work. The purpose of those copies isn't known but art experts point to an enormous gulf in technical skill distinguishing these small canvases from the works known to be by Delacroix.
As Kahng asserts in her essay, "Precisely because Delacroix's touch is so difficult to imitate … paintings like the Santa Barbara variant cannot possibly be anything but authentic inventions by Delacroix. The chromatic complexity, psychological nuance, and bravura brushwork are absolutely beyond the means of Delacroix's best students."
Santa Barbara Museum of Art officials say the show with this newly authenticated work from a Santa Barbara private collection together with approximately 30 other paintings and 18 works on paper, the first to take on the challenge of recognizing the hand of the master and to invite museum-goers to do the same.

Never put a dead line unless your going to meet it.
Hopefully you guys didn't die or something.
Equestrian Terrors is a MLP:FIM inspired survival horror game. It's planned to be episodic, with each episode being a self-contained story that does not follow any linked main story line. The game will be heavily focused on escaping rather than combat, however there will be instances where you can slow down and impede enemies as you attempt to do so.

The following was an April Fools joke.
Well, guys, I'm finally going to call it. This is it. Equestrian Terrors is dead. It's finished. It's gone. Particularly because I erased it so I had enough room to download my pre-order of Elder Scrolls Online. Wish I could say it was because of some hard-drive crash or something, but let's be honest, we all knew this project wasn't going anywhere. I mean, just look at the images. It's clear we're just a bunch of idea guys with no capability of implementing any of them.
If you need me, I'll be playing Elder Scrolls Online for the rest of my life. Have a final goodbye trailer though:
In real news, we're upgrading to Unreal 4! I decided to fork over the $19 for early access, and man, I tell you, I am not disappointed. I thought porting everything over would be a lot like starting over from scratch, but everything is sooo much easier in Unreal 4. I can hardly describe how excited I am to start implementing the ideas I hadn't quite worked out how to do in UDK. I can also package both developer and public versions of the game with amazing speed rather than it being such an ordeal as it was in UDK. Plus the navigation mesh is much more polished, and well, the list goes on. This is definitely going to speed things up!
Thanks for staying with us!
Never put a dead line unless your going to meet it.
Hopefully you guys didn't die or something.
Look Twitch and Switch I have been waiting for awhile and I don't want you two to overwork yourself's on this project, it seems you two have worked hard to get this finish for us but please don't put a deadline for yourself's as it will disappoint people and make it harder for your self's. I don't mind waiting for another year or two because projects like this do take alot of time and for a dev team of two you are doing very well, good luck on your project and I hope you guys don't overwork your self's because of this.
Me and my friend Spyro plan on tying the co-op and recording both sides, is the co-op the same as the Single player game?
I can't wait.
cant wait for it ill also do a play-through when it is released ill post a link when it happens
Thanks, man!
We're working really hard to meet the deadline, but it's starting to seem pretty ambitious. We've gotten so much done in these past 3 weeks that I can safely say no later than mid-November, but I'd rather not be a GabeN if I don't need to be, as lovable as he is.
We'll keep workin' away at it, and I can't wait to see your play-throughs!
I will totally be doing a playthrough of this when it comes out
This really looks good, my fans like my little pony creepy stuff :)

Florence Is Amazing!
I couldn't believe how amazed I would be with this city. It is absolutely beautiful and the people are great. Gelato, Gelato, Gelato! Beautiful sites to see, some good food to eat, and lots to be learned.
Surrounded by the Tuscan Apennines and located on the River Arno, Florence is a classic Italian city. Thanks to an abundance of bustling squares, it is arguably the best of all Italian cities to people watch. It is also home to the most important collection of Italian and Renaissance art in the world, largely thanks to the world-famous Uffizi Gallery. But as the Tuscan capital attracts over 20,000 overseas students who study there each year, it is also surprisingly lively after dark and is laced with bars and nightclubs.

I couldn't believe how amazed I would be with this city. It is absolutely beautiful and the people are great. Gelato, Gelato, Gelato! Beautiful sites to see, some good food to eat, and lots to be learned.
Florence is an amazing city. During our trip to Italy, my friends and I visited Rome, Florence, and Milan, and I think we could all agree that Florence was our favorite city of the three. Unlike Rome, Florence is small and has a much slower pace to it. There are definitely a lot of tourists, but it doesn't feel overcrowded like Rome did a lot of the time.
Insider Tip:Reserve your Galleria Academia tickets ahead of time. There is still a line you have to wait in, but it is a lot faster than waiting in the two hour line starting at eleven am that my friends and I waited in. Also, don't miss the sunset at Piazza Michelangelo. It's a trek to get up the hill, but it was easily my favorite part of the trip. Bring a picnic and a bottle of wine, and you'll be set.
Lovely laid back city. This time of year it's a bit over crowded with tourists, so I would like to see it earlier in the Spring -- but apart from that -- had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed the majesty of Florence.
Insider Tip:Had superb dinner for reasonable prices at Vivanda on Santa Monaca. Highly recommend.
We loved Florence because we were able to walk everywhere, there was great food, and great sightseeing. However, I don't recommend going in the summer. It was hot and humid which made it harder to enjoy.
Insider Tip:Go in the Spring or Fall. Use bathrooms when you see them. They are few and far between!
Florence lives up to its reputation. Like any major city, the main areas are very crowded and touristy, but it's worth it. There is so much amazing art & architecture to see, and the food is amazing. The famous artworks are spread in different museums, so pick the pieces you most want to see if you're on a budget. The Duomo Basically is more beautiful on the outside than in, so unless you want to go up in the tower, you can skip it. Watch out for selfie stick sellers, they're everywhere.
Insider Tip:Don't get wine with dinner--you can get a full bottle for the same price you'd pay for a glass, and there are no open carry laws, so you can drink in the Piazza. Also, go to the Michaelangelo Piazza one night to watch the sunset. It's a hike, and you need to get there a little early before it gets crowded, but the view is so worth it.
Florence is one of Tuscany's jewels. A city where Renaissance art goes hand in hand with 20th Century modernism. What sets Florence apart from the other major Italian cities is that all it has to offer is compacted into a small concentrated area, making it the perfect place to see on foot.Read More »

Motion Capture – What, how and why If there were a technology to resurrect the dead, bring to life extinct and inanimate characters, Motion Capture (Mocap) would be among the main contenders for the prime spot. Motion Capture, defined as the technique of digitally recording the movements of real things so that their movements can be played back with computer animation has moved into the realm of reality. What is Motion Capture? Simply put, Motion Capture is the recording of human body movement (or other movement) for immediate or delayed analysis and playback. It is the process of capturing the movement of a real object and mapping it onto a computer generated object. Usually, Motion Capture is used to create synthetic actors by capturing the motions of real humans. This technique is used in cinema and video games to create amazingly real effects. Growth of Motion Capture By the 90s, special effects and fantasy was passé for the western audience. Till this time, computer graphics technology had come a long way and with powerful processors, rendering improved, textures were richer, movements smoother, and lighting effects more realistic. Realism was required to rein in audiences. Filmmakers then turned to technology to try and create dead or extinct creatures, and even complete digital characters. However, would these digitally created characters merge with the real ones on screen? The answer came with Steven Spielberg"s "Jurassic Park" where dinosaurs and pre-historic animals blended perfectly with live footage. With the unprecedented success of this movie, it was proved that with the right technology and sufficient computing power it was possible to digitally resurrect dead actors or extinct animals in films. Taking the concept of virtual characters further, in the movie Forrest Gump, actor Tom Hanks meets president John F. Kennedy, long since dead. In India, Pentamedia Graphics embarked on a movie that promised to digitally reincarnate the deceased stars Raj Kapoor and M.G. Ramachandran through motion capture and motion creation technologies and bring them together on the silver screen. The process of Motion Capture An actor wears a leotard with numerous reflective markers taped or glued to specific points over his body. At least two or more cameras film the actor as he acts or performs specific motions. These cameras report to a computer the exact position of each reflective marker, many times per second. A motion capture session only records the movements of the actor, not his visual appearance. These movements are recorded as animation data, which is then "mapped" onto a 3D model (which can be of a normal human or anything else) that was created by a computer artist, and the model can then be made to perform the same movements that were recorded. An alternative to the above is the use of a magnetic system, in which the actor wears a number of sensors, which detect a nearby magnetic field and transmit data on each sensor's inferred 3D position to the computer. These camera motions are also tracked meticulously and fed to the computer; or, a computer controlling the camera motion has already been programmed with the motion control data, and the camera meticulously follows the directions of this computer. This computer then uses software to post-process this mass of data and determine the exact movement of the actor, as inferred from the 3D position of each marker at each moment. After post-processing, the computer exports animation data, which computer animators can associate with a 3D model and then manipulate using normal computer animation software such as Maya or 3D Studio Max. Types of Motion Capture Mechanical The performer wears a human-shaped set of straight metal pieces (like a very basic skeleton) that is hooked onto the performer's back; as the performer moves, this exoskeleton is forced to move as well and sensors in each joint feel the rotations Other types of mechanical motion capture involve gloves, mechanical arms, or articulated models (like Monkey), which are used for 'key framing' Optical The performer wears reflective dots that are followed by several cameras and the information is triangulated between them The markers are either reflective, such as a system manufactured by Vicon or Motion Analysis, or infra-red emitting, many of which have been developed for musical applications (such as conducting) These are developed primarily for biomedical applications (sports injuries, analysis of athletic performance, etc.) Electromagnetic The performer wears an array of magnetic receivers that track location with respect to a static magnetic transmitter Often this type of motion capture is layered with animation from other input devices One of the first uses was for the military, to track head movements of pilots Advantages of Motion Capture The great advantage of Motion Capture over traditional animation techniques such as keyframing and simulation is the capability of real-time visualization and the high quality (natural looking) of the generated animation. Motion capture allows the shooting of scenes that are unrealistic or dangerous to replicate in real life. It helps avoid cumbersome procedures involved in re-shooting of scenes that have been damaged or requiring changes. Motion Capture scores over traditional animation in terms of the time taken to animate a character. Due to the very nature of the technology used, Motion Capture can capture nuances with more detail than traditional animators would have. In fact, this is among the prime reasons that Motion Capture animation seems so realistic. Additionally, difficult physical movements, especially that involving simultaneous movements can be more accurately depicted than by animators who may not be able to simulate the movement. Careers in Motion Capture Says R. Krishnan ,Global Head, Arena Animation , "The beauty of Motion capture is the ability to capture movement with such incredible accuracy that even foreground characters on the big screen are lifelike and this is quite visible in films like Jurassic Park, Titanic, Gladiator, The Mummy, Pearl Harbor to name a few. The applications of this technology are enormous and can be limited by only one"s imagination." In India the film industry is increasingly employing sophisticated motion capture techniques. However the experts in this area are few. Motion capture for computer character animation is fast gaining popularity and leading institutes such as Arena Animation offer courses in Motion Capture, which is increasingly becoming popular as a career. An exciting future ahead Current technology limitations mean a motion capture session only records the movement of a few key points on the actor's body, where the sensors or reflective markers are placed. In the coming days, future technology may include full-frame imaging from many camera angles to record the exact position of every inch of the actor's body, clothing, and hair for the entire duration of the session, resulting in higher resolution of detail than at present.

Managed Pressure Operations International Ltd. Key Developments
Aker Solutions' subsidiary Managed Pressure Operations will deliver managed pressure drilling (MPD) systems and riser gas handling services to Repsol Sinopec Brazil. The parties agreed not to disclose the value of the order. The three-year contract comes with an option for an additional two years of services. Repsol will use the equipment at an ultra-deepwater operation in the Campos Basin. The riser gas handling system helps control wellbore fluids during offshore oil and gas drilling. It detects an influx of gas into a drilling riser and diverts the gas to prevent a blowout. MPD technology improves drilling performance and safety. The riser drilling device seals the area around the drill pipe during drilling operations. Integrating a riser drilling device with a riser gas handling system enables MPD drilling operations. The contract has been booked as order intake in the second quarter of 2013.
