Activision Blizzard and Acer Leave PCGA While Gamestop and Sony DADC Join
The PC Gaming Alliance (PCGA), "a nonprofit corporation promoting PC gaming worldwide, while providing an open forum where companies can cooperate to develop and promote solutions and activities that drive the PC gaming industry forward," lost two of its founding members, today.
Activision Blizzard, known for popular games like World of Warcraft and Call of Duty, and Acer, world's third largest computer manufacturer, both left the PC Gaming Alliance due to membership costs. Randy Stute, the non-profit organization's president, confirmed yesterday that Activision Blizzard and Acer both felt that they could not justify the expense in both money and staff to continue to be a member of the group.
"However Stute also confirmed that gaming retailer Gamestop has just joined the organization on the less expensive "Contributors" level of membership. At the moment Gamestop's membership is not listed on the PC Gaming Alliance's official web site. The most interesting new member, however, is Sony DADC which is the parent company for the SecuROM software solution that several PC game publishers use for their digital rights management set-ups. Stude said that Sony DADC wanted to join the PC Gaming Alliance to give their input on the organization's sub-committee on PC game piracy.
The PC Gaming Alliance now has only three game developers and/or publishers on the board (Epic Games, Capcom and Microsoft)."
AMD Phenom II X4 955 3.2GHz and 3 GHz Athlon X2
AMD is brewing up some new processors. The first is to be released next week and is the Phenom II X4 955 processor (April 23rd). This part should be a 125W TDP processor with a frequency of 3.2GHz, it will be the fastest chip in AMD's lineup.
From what we heard is that the processor will be a Black Edition CPU which means unlocked. Pricing wise in the US expect roughly $300 for the CPU and in the EU
Radeon HD 4830 with 800 Shader processors surfaced
Interesting, as you guys know the Radeon HD 4830 is an affordable graphics card from AMD based on RV770LE chip which is priced at around $89.99.
Recently some weird reports surfaced on the web. See, the product should have 640 Shader processors. Yet several buyers report a full 800 stream processors much like the Radeon HD 4850/4870 has. The AIB brands involved include Powercolor, Sapphire and Triplex.
If you are one of the lucky ones, congratulatiosn .. you got a very good deal at 90 bucks.
Check out the GPU-Z screenshot, you'll also notice the RV770 and not LE, apparantly some 4830 boards simply have the 4850 GPU embedded:
OCZ Vertex 120 GB SSD review
With the Vertex series SSD, OCZ offers an extremely high performing SSD with a new controller and ... in addition to that a nice phat 64MB cache to tackle the slow small file write issue.
Now taking this course makes SSDs a little more expensive then they already are, but hear me out on this one. Technology as shown today at one stage will also reach high volume and yes... then the price will go down as well, much like we have seen with the early generation SSD drives from last year.
The result? Well, the Vertex is in many ways a stunning SSD drive that wipes the floor clean with JMicron controller based SSD drives. But sheesh... this thing is fast.

nHancer 2.5.0 Beta 1 download out
There's a new beta out of nHancer, which apparently addresses some important Forceware 185.xx issues.
nVidia's own control panel is not always very intuitive to use. Especially the 3D rendering settings are very cryptic and difficult to navigate. Even the new control panel introduced with the 9x.xx line of Forceware drivers isn't a real improvements for these problems. nHancer is a tool to improve the usage of these features.
But it's such a powerful and handy tool, even for the average guy. So another aspect of nHancer is to improve the handling of those profiles by adding many features that the normal control panel doesn't offer at all and improving the ones that it does offer.

US Congressman Wants to Ban Download Caps
As a result of Time Warner Cable's plan to charge its customers by the gigabyte in Rochester, New York, congressman Eric Massa "called TWC's proposal to switch its 8.4 million cable broadband customers to metered internet billing an "outrageous plan to tax the American people."
Critics say usage caps will cost users more and hurt innovation on the net - especially in new video services, as subscribers begin to calorie-count their internet usage. TWC's new tiered pricing structure for its Roadrunner internet service starts at $15 for a plan that allows 1 GB a month with an overage charge of $2 per GB. (A GB of data equals about three hours of online video from Hulu.com and about half of a rented standard definition movie.) The company says bandwidth hogs need to pay their fair share and maintain that if the company doesn't get enough money to build new infrastructure, "internet brownouts" will be inevitable.
In a conference call with reporters Tuesday, Massa dismissed those arguments, describing TWC as a greedy, unregulated monopoly providing a utility service. His yet-to-be-introduced bill would seek to increase competition among broadband providers and regulate monopolies, he said, though he declined to give specifics."
Particularly interesting is the fact that "Time Warner Cable's 2008 annual report shows its high-speed data costs actually declined by 12 percent to $146 million. Meanwhile its subscriber count increased by more than 10 percent to 8.4 million, and high-speed data revenues climbed to more than $4 billion.
"Congress must investigate these anti-competitive practices before they become a nationwide problem." Timothy Karr, a campaign director at the consumer advocate group FreePress, said last week.
A Massa spokesman said the text of the bill would be ready late in the week." [via Wired]
OCZ launches DDR3 modules for AMD Socket AM3
Memory maker OCZ has introduced four new DDR3 memory kits for AMD Socket AM3 systems:
- OCZ PC3-12800 Platinum AMD Edition Low Voltage (2x2GB) 7-7-7-24 @ 1.65v
- OCZ PC3-12800 Gold AMD Edition Low Voltage (2x2GB) 8-8-8-24 @ 1.65v
- OCZ PC3-10666 Platinum Low Voltage AMD Edition (2x2GB) 7-7-7-20 @ 1.65v
- OCZ PC3-10666 Gold AMD Edition Low Voltage (2x2GB) 9-9-9-20 @ 1.65v
Intel Larrabee to be huge and expensive
Bright Side of News reports the Larrabee wafer that Pat Gelsinger showed off at the Intel Developer Forum in Beijing last week contains 64 Larrabee dies, each measuring around 600 square millimeters.
Intel's parallel computing chip is massive and it is guessed at that Larrabee has between 1.65 billion and 1.75 billion transistors, if correct that's about 300 million more than NVIDIA's GT200 GPU.
According to some sources, first Larrabee chips will be built using 45nm High-K Hafnium-loving process with a move to 32nm a year after. Now, if Bloomfield die [Core i7] is 263mm2 in size and is consisted out of 731 million transistors, that means that Larrabee's 600mm2 die would end somewhere in the 1.65-1.75B transistor range.
If you're not impressed at the specs of this chip, with its 12 P55C-based cores + Vector units, think again. ATI is testing 40nm manufacturing with RV740, a $99 chip featuring 826 million transistors. Intel's "test" has more than double that. However, the entrance into the world of cGPU or GPGPU won't be that easy. From the hardware side, ATI is currently shipping 959M parts [4890] and 1.92B with their dual-GPU cards [4850X2/4870X2], nVidia ships 1.4B part for almost a year now [GTX260/275/280/285], or 2.8 billion transistor part if you count their dual-GPU part - GeForce GTX295 [via BSN].

Mainstream Support for Office 2003 and Windows XP Ends
Although Windows XP and Office 2003 extended support only ends in 2014, meaning that Microsoft is going to release critical security fixes until then, its mainstream support of XP and Office 2003 ends today, on 14/04/2009. Non-security related problems with both softwares are only being fixed by paying Microsoft through an extended support contract. The free live support and warranty support ends today, while the free maintenance gets limited to security fixes.
The Microsoft Support Lifecycle (MSL) policy states that: "Extended Support includes paid support (support that is charged on an hourly basis or per incident), security update support at no additional cost, and paid hotfix support. To receive hotfix support, an Extended Hotfix Support contract must be purchased within the first 90 days following the end of the Mainstream Support phase. Microsoft will not accept requests for warranty support, design changes, or new features during the Extended Support phase."
Microsoft Ordered to Pay $388 Million in Lost Patent Case
Uniloc Inc., founded in 2003 and headquartered in Irvine, California, won its patent law dispute after six years of legal skirmishes and a trial starting in March, in a federal court in Rhode Island. Microsoft was ordered to pay $388 million in damages, since the jury found that Microsoft "infringed Uniloc's patent on software that generates unique identities for licensed users and prevents unauthorized use or copying of programs."
"Uniloc USA and its Singapore-based parent originally filed suit against Microsoft in 2003, claiming that Microsoft infringed its patent with security software it was using to prevent unlicensed use of its Windows XP operating system and parts of its Office suite of products. (...) The damages award is one of the largest on record in patent law disputes."
Microsoft responded by saying that they will appeal the verdict: "We believe that we do not infringe, that the patent is invalid and that this award of damages is legally and factually unsupported," said a Microsoft spokesman. "We will ask the court to overturn the verdict."
New SandForce SSD Controller SF-1000 Revealed
Quietly working on a new SSD controller for the past three years, SandForce announced a new family of solid-state disk (SSD) processors, the SF-1000, today. According to the company based in Saratoga, California, this new technology is supposed to "address the inherent endurance, reliability, and data retention issues associated with NAND flash memory, making it possible to build SSDs that deliver unprecedented performance over the life of the drive with orders-of-magnitude higher reliability than enterprise-class HDDs (Hard Disk Drives)."
"The SF-1000 SSD Processor Family promises to address key NAND flash issues allowing MLC flash technologies to be reliably used in broad based, mission critical storage environments," said Mike Desens, Vice President for System Design, IBM.
SandForce claims that this new controller can improve MLC sequential read/writes to 250MB/sec., while it's new firmware DuraWrite, supposedly extends "flash rated endurance by 80x or more when compared to standard controllers."
Another part of its new technology is called RAISE "(Redundant Array of Independent Silicon Elements), which delivers an orders-of-magnitude improvement in drive reliability versus today
DFI preps new Blood Iron P45 motherboard
DFI is working on a new P45 board that is touted to be pretty overclockable and best of all, very affordable too as VR-zone reports. DFI called it Blood Iron (BI) P45-T2RS Elite which is an update to the current P45-T2RS board with a revised PCB layout and a different LAN chip. It comes with one PCIe x16 slot and 3 PCIe x1 slots instead of 2 PCIe x16 slots and 2 PCIe x1 slots to reduce cost so you can't run Crossfire on this board now. It is said to be achieved FSB above 600MHz easily and mass production will start next week.
Other specs include Core 2 Quad and Duo processors support, 800/1066/1333MHz FSB support, 4 x DDRII DIMM up to max 8GB, DDR2 667/800/1066 DIMMs, 1 IDE, 6 SATAII 3Gbs ports, 12 USB2.0 ports, Realtek ALC885 for 8CH HD audio, 1 GbE LAN by JMC250, EZ-On and EZ-Touch switches for power switch and reset switch, and a Software Debug LED. The BIOS supports voltage tweakings on Vdimm, Vnb, Vcore, Vsb, VHT, 1MHz FSB tuning, adjustable CPU Multiplier. Also according to DFI, the issue of automatic shutdown while overclocking is now fixed so when you tried to change the CPU FSB or memory ratio, the system will not power off by itself.
Over 97 percent of all e-mails are spam says Mircosoft
A security report by Microsoft claims more than 97 percent of all e-mails are spam, and that the global ratio of infected PCs is around 8.6 for every 1,000 uninfected machines. Another observation is that hackers are increasingly targeting flaws in Office and PDF documents.
Paul Woods, a senior analyst at security firm Message Labs, is surprised by Microsoft's findings. Woods says their own analysis shows that around 81 percent of all e-mail traffic is spam.
Microsoft said people should not panic about the high levels of unwanted e-mail.
Cliff Evans, head of security and privacy for Microsoft in the UK, told BBC News: "The good news is that the majority of that never hits your inbox although some will get through."
Ed Gibson, chief cyber security advisor at Microsoft, said the rise in spam was due to traditional organised crime figures moving away from exploiting software vulnerabilities and "targeting the weak link that is you and me".
"With higher capacity broadband and better OS (operating systems), and higher power computers it is easier now to send out billions of spams. Three or four years ago the capacity wasn't there."
Thermaltake V14AX Core i7 ready
The Thermaltake V14AX is suitable for socket-1366/775/AM2(+) (and thus also for AM3) systems and is built with a copper base. The heatpipes have a diameter of 6 millimeters and 98 aluminum fins. In between there is a 140 mm fan.
The fan of the Thermaltake cooler works with revolutions between 1,000 and 1,600 RPM and comes with a blue LED. The dimension of the V14AX is 171 x 161 x 100 millimeter (W x H x D). The pricing for the CPU cooler Thermaltake V14AX is 59 US dollar.

- An ISBN is the 10 or 13 digit number, usually printed on the back of a book with a bar code, that serves as a unique identifier for the book.
- Searching by ISBN is the best way to search because it will get you the exact title and edition that you need.
- Many professors include the ISBN on their syllabi or in their course management system.
If you don't have the ISBN, try a title or author search.
Title search
- Enter all words in the title you are looking for. The search engine will try to find books that have all the words you entered in the title. Leave out words such as "a," "an," or "the."
- When including edition, use numeric values. For example, "1st edition" instead of "first edition."
Author search
- Enter all or part of the author name you are looking for.
- You do not need to enter a first name, but if there are a lot of books by authors with the same last name, it may help to narrow the results.
- You can enter the name in any order such as "John Smith" or "Smith John." Avoid using a comma since it has a special meaning in the search.
Keyword search
- You can search by keyword but this approach is not recommended as it will likely return a large set of results.
- If you want to search by keyword, try a combination of author and keyword. For example, "Warren Accounting" where "Warren" is the author and "Accounting" is the keyword.
To refine your results, use the filtering/sorting options
- Filter options include product type and discipline area. Sort options include alphabetical sort (ascending or descending) and copyright year (ascending or descending).

When will we see the first YouTube Model S Burnout?
I have some hoodlum friends. Perhaps I was even a bit of one at an earlier point in life.
So, the hoodlum side of me wants to know if the traction control can be turned all the way off. If it can, how long do you think it will be before we get the first YouTube video of a Tesla Model S in a cloud of smoke? I'll be it will be under a New York Minute for the first one delivered in Russia.

Yes it can, and there is already burnout video in youtube (just not stationary one, only from moving car).

A walk on th beach dinner and wine a movie or a nice jazz club looking @th stars walking in th city having a nice conversation getting 2 know each other
First dates are meant for meeting and getting to know eachother. Anything simple and entertaining appeals to me!
Just a simple walk through the park. Maybe a dinner date also. Or even a craft activity to do together.
I think the first date should be some where its easy to get to know each other. Nothing too loud or distracting.
Dinner and maybe a movie or something we both LOVE to do.
Haha don't really care what ever happens happens
Maybe go out for a drink, some coffee, or maybe a movie, a nice dinner
Im game for most activities...
First few dates I will meet you were we are going.. I will not be picked up due to prior experience
Is walking talking holding hands eating good food making sure she is having fun
First dates are tricky but I'm not super high maintenance so surprise me. I'll definitely let you know if you did well or judged me wrong.
Walk on the beach or a bar with live music
if it is raining then a relaxed meal inside, sunny then maybe a walk down town. both followed by either a movie or dancing.
dinner and a movie, picnic by the lake, browsing a market

Should I let my older child attend the birth?
My 7-year-old is extremely excited about the baby-on-the-way. She's also convinced that she wants to be an ob-gyn when she gets older. In fact, she's so fascinated by pregnancy and childbirth that she wants to attend the delivery. The problem is, so far, apart from our doctor and immediate family, everyone disapproves of the idea. Would it be wrong to let my child attend the birth?

my daughter si turning 10 2 days before my due date. she wants to be in the room with me and my doctor is ok with it. she says she doesnt want to watch but stand by my head. my biggests concerns are for her worrying about the pain im in and me not being able to be patient with her. she and i have watched videos on the internet and national geographic so that she would be educated about the process but it still make me nervous to have her in there. i think its a personal choice but u should have a back up plan in case you or your child changes their mind.posted 01/17/2007 by lilbitcrzy
i think it depends soley on how you feel your child can handle the situation. face it labor could be quite scary to a child. but if you think they can handle it and you really want them there then all you can do is try it, worst case scenario the person there to take care of them ends up sitting in the waiting room with him or her. if they do well during your delivery it could be a memory last they cherish forever.posted 01/11/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
I am faced with the same situaion. My daughter is 10. She loves watching babies being born on the Discovery channel. She wants to be a nurse,she says. She would be so upset if I didn't let her experience this. My son is 6,and is not sure if he wants to be there. So if he is unsure than I'm unsure. So I will not have him there. Better to be safe. He would be more worried about my pain,and may be frightened by it.It's a time to really evaluate how you think your child will react to the situation. Every child is different. If you think they will be afraid, that could cause stress to both of you.I hope all works out with you and your growing family. If in doubt you could watch the birth of a baby and see how they react.Discovery channel has many different shows about this.Birth Day seems to be the best.posted 12/28/2006 by champagne33
I don't think it's a bad idea at all. My husband and I have decided to let our 6 year old daughter attend the birth of her baby sister. As long as you and your partner agree on this being the right decision, don't worry about what anyone else has to say. Good luck and God Bless.posted 12/12/2006 by a BabyCenter Member
My 2 nieces were 8 and 5 at the time their baby sister was born and they were both at the birth. The nurse even let them put on gloves and help by handing her towels. It was a positive experience for their whole family.posted 11/26/2006 by Katybok1
The decision is yours as to if you want to have your child be there while your delivering her sibling. My daughter is 10 yrs. old. She wanted to attend the birth of her sister on the way until we watched the stages of labor video online. By the time the video got to the the last stages in labor she changed her mind. There is nothing wrong with if you want your child to attend the birth. Worrying about what everyone else will think should be the least of your concerns because you are the one that has to raise the both of them not anyone else.posted 11/23/2006 by msjoy216
My nine year old son will be in the room during delivery. I have had people tell me not to do it, but it is not up to them. I know my son can handle it. It is best to have someone in the waiting room just in case the child changes his/her mind. I have told my son what to expect the good and the bad and he says he can handle it. You may want to check with your hospital, mine offers a class to siblings that will be in the delivery room, it prepares them.posted 11/20/2006 by lindamarcus
I'm 36 weeks and I've been contemplating the idea of letting my 13 yr. old daughter attend my birthing. I think it would be an experience she'll never forget, and if you feel you want your child in the room I believe that's a decision you should make without any regrets.posted 11/08/2006 by a BabyCenter Member
I have a 4 years old son and I'm going to give birth to a girl in 4 weeks. Both my husband and I feel that it's not a great idea to let our son be there when I'm in labor, especially it may happen in the midnight or early morning, you never know. Also for the lenghth of the labor, I think it'll be too long and tiring for a little kid to wait, even she is 7 years old, like your daughter.posted 11/07/2006 by a BabyCenter Member
I THINK IT'S UP TO YOU AS A PARENT IF YOU WANT YOUR CHILD IN THE ROOM WITH YOU WHILE GIVING BIRTH. IF YOU EXPLAINED TO YOUR DAUGHTER EVERYTHING AS FAR AS THE PAIN AND THE BLOOD IS CONCERNED THEN IT'S NOT A PROBLEM. I AM A FIRM BELIEVER THAT CHILDREN SHOULD IN FACT BE GIVEN THE REALISTIC POINT OF VIEW ON LIFE. DON'T SUGAR COAT IT AND I HAVE A FIVE YEAR OLD SON AND HE WILL DEFINTELY BE IN THE ROOM WITH ME FOR THE BIRTH OF HIS NEW BABY BROTHER. AND IF HE DECIDES HE DOESN'T WANT TO STAY THEN MY MOM OR MY SISTER WILL TAKE HIM HOME WITH THEM. REALLY IT'S UP TO YOU NO ONE ELSE MATTERS.posted 11/03/2006 by a BabyCenter Member

Yani Tseng overslept on Wednesday and missed her 9:10 a.m. pro-am tee time. As a result, Tseng was withdrawn from the Kia Classic, per LPGA regulations. Tseng, who lost her world No.1 ranking last week to Stacy Lewis, was the defending champion in the tournament at Carlsbad, Calif. She is traveling this week without manager Naya Hsu, who is typically by Tseng's side. Hsu is back in Taiwan on business. "I'm embarrassed to admit that I wasn't feeling well last night and accidentally overslept and missed my tee time for the pro-am this morning," Tseng said in a statement. "I was extremely excited to compete this week to defend my title at the Kia Classic and to try to regain the No. 1 spot. "This was an unfortunate mistake and I want to apologize to Kia, my sponsors and all of the fans." Tseng will compete next in two weeks at the year's first major, the Kraft Nabisco Championship. Golfweek's Beth Ann Baldry contributed to this report.

This weekly course covers the most common questions videographers encounter when shooting and editing with DSLR cameras, from choosing a frame size and frame rate to understanding moiré. Authors Rich Harrington and Robbie Carman will also help you understand the impacts of compression and the difference between cropped (or micro 4/3rds) and full-sized sensors in cameras, and much more. This continual FAQ guide is a handy way to find the answers to the questions that plague you the most.
>> Okay, we've headed down into the studio to take a look at some of the shots and I can see the benefits of the shot. I understand log, but lots of clients don't. Just recap what we're seeing here. Why's it so washed out? Why's it so underexposed? >> We haven't done anything wrong. Right? This is the way that then the Blackmagic world they call it film mode on the cinema camera, the pocket camera. Everywhere else we're going to call this the log mode. The Arri Alexa has it, some of the Canon cinema cameras have it. This is basically just a way of recording. You're recording, you're encoding the video signal in a logarithmic way so that you're preserving shadow and you're preserving highlight detail.
And the net result is that you're going to get this very flat image, where black's not really black, white's not really white. Saturation's a little off. This is normal. And what we need to do is either color correct it from scratch. That is, if you know what you're doing, push the blacks down, push the white up, add some saturation. Or we can also do what's call a LUT operation or a look up table. We can apply a look up table to this shot to sort of normalize or, or sort of stretch that back out automatically. And Rich, all a look up table is, is a way of translating one set of data values to another set of data values.
>> Now, I think people would say, well, why go through all that extra work? But really, the benefit here, during the acquisition stage, is that you don't have to worry about your shadows getting muddy or your whites getting clipped. Because you concentrated all of the camera's information towards the middle. >> Right. >> And then we basically, I don't want to say re-interpret, but re-map it to the full gamut. >> Right. And the LUT, in my opinion, is kind of not the easy way out, but it's a simple way out. Right? Is that you have, you shoot this, you want to preserve that data values, and then, you know, manufacturers like Blackmagic or Cannon or Adobe or whoever has gone through and said hey look, this is our LUT.
This is the way we think we should process this footage to stretch it back out and to make it look normal. And it works great most of the time. It just, just keep in mind it doesn't give you a ton of flexibility. You know, I'll show you in a moment, Rich. When we do a LUT, sometimes we are want to process things before the look up table. >> Sure. >> Sometimes after the look up table. >> And can you use two look up tables? One to do the conversion and one to do a look? >> Eh, sure. You could. You know, but like I. >> It sounds like I should. LAUGH He's saying you could. >> In my, my personal opinion about look up tables and LUTs is, especially with log footage, is that I used to use them very heavily.
Right, I used to be like very simple, buy a LUT, done with it, move on, a little back color balance, you know, master shot and be done with it. My attitude now is I like to do it from scratch, but I'm also aware that that's because that's what I do all day. Now I'm, I'm sitting and playing with images. I think for a quick, fast workflow, doing what I'm about to show you is pretty simple. So. Here we are inside of Adobe Premiere Pro and. >> Yeah. >> I'm going to show you this workflow in Premiere because it's actually a pretty new, exciting workflow with Premiere as well as Adobe SpeedGrade. Now just to be clear. >> And those two apps are included in the.
>> Right. >> Creative Cloud, so if you've got Adobe Premiere Pro, you're going to have SpeedGrade. You're going to have After Effects. And, and this is a, a new linking between the two. Right? >> That's right. But just to be clear, Rich, that the idea and the concepts of what we're going to show applying the LUT would be the same if you're using DaVinci Resolve, either the free version or the paid version. Whether you're using, other applications that support Luts. Same basic idea. But you're right. I'm going to show this with this direct link work first. So here we have our friend, Patrick Hanhofer. Who's a colorist friend of mine, and Pat looks flat right? >> Yeah. >> He doesn't look very good. And what I'm going to do is simply come up to the File menu here in Premiere and go, Direct Link to Adobe SpeedGrade.
And this functionality is different than it used to be. It used to say, send to Adobe SpeedGrade, and it made a whole bunch of intermediate files and all kind of stuff, don't have to worry about that any more. It literally just passes off the shot to SpeedGrade. >> Do I have to select the shot first or does it take the whole sequence? >> Well, we can do that either way. It's going to take the whole sequence by default. So I'm going to just. >> Okay. >> You know, I only have one clip on this sequence. So I'm just simply going to go to File>Direct Link to Adobe SpeedGrade. It's going to say, hey, you want should save your project first. I'll say OK. And in just a second, SpeedGrade's going to open up. It takes just a moment. >> And does the, the Premier project basically closes.
>> Correct. >> because it's opening the project over here. >> Essentially that's what you're doing. Essentially you're running Adobe Premiere Pro inside of Adobe SpeedGrade. >> Well, it's a good thing you don't have to pay extra for it. >> Right. It's, it's, it's actually pretty amazing. And in my, I hate to use this term, I'm not a big fan of it, but it is kind of a game changer in terms of workflow. In other color correction workflows, we're dealing with intermediate files, XMLs, EDLs, conforming shows. Pretty much, if it works in Premiere, it's going to work over in Adobe SpeedGrade. >> Alright, so let's adjust the color. >> Right. So, here, I have the same shot of Pat.
You know, it looks fine. But it's obviously very flat. What I'm going to do down here in my Look tab. And you'll notice a lot of these other tabs are grayed out. Because they will only work if you're doing, using SpeedGrade as sort of a, a manual, tool, rather than the direct link But that's fine for what we're doing. I'm going to come down here, and click on this little plus button. And this allows me to add a custom look layer. And one of the options I have on a custom look layer is this guy right here called a LUT, or a look up table. >> Okay. >> Now, I just want to be clear. When I do this, the image is going to look really weird for a second. So I'll go LUT and all of a sudden.
>> Oh yeah. >> You know, it's like woah. Pat's all yellow and weird. >> Yeah. >> If, if you notice here. >> Oh, Brother Were Art Thou. >> Right, exactly. A little sepia tone. If you notice right here, there's only one parameter for this LUT layer, and that's this pull down menu. And right now it's set to a LUT that's not doing what I need it to do. But if I click here, you'll notice that I have a huge amount of LUTs. >> Yeah. >> Arri cameras, I have some profiles. >> CROSSTALK >> Did these come with it or did you make these? >> No, these all came with SpeedGrade, which is great, you don't have to think about how to develop it, you don't need to know anything about color science.
These come with it, including things like popular film stocks. >> And if I'm afraid of SpeedGrade, I can get this out and send it back to Premiere. >> Correct, so here's what we're going to do. We're going to do exactly that. You'll notice up here, one of the options I have for a LUT is the BMC, your Blackmagic Cinema Camera basically. Pro Res, and this is optimized for shooting Pro Res, but in film or log mode on the Blackmagic Cinema Camera. I'll choose that option and in just a second, it's going to think about it. Okay, now let me just toggle it off. It still looks pretty flat, right. But that's okay, but let me show you this difference.
>> Color's looking richer. >> Color's getting better. It's getting better. So what I'm going to simply do is, come over here to my Primary layer that every clip has, and I'm simply just going to raise up my whites. Just a little bit, and I can open up my Analysis tools if I wanted to, which is just right here. These are just video scopes, right? >> Yep. >> So I could bring my white up a little bit more, we'll get it up somewhere right around there. >> Yep. >> Maybe I'll bring my blacks down just a touch. This is just again, tweaking the LUT. The LUT did an okay job, but I just kind of wanted to tweak it a little bit. >> And left is darker to the right.
Counter, counterclockwise is darker, clockwise is brighter. >> Correct. And I'm just going to add a little more saturation right here to Pat, so it looks a little healthier. >> It's looking fantastic. >> There we go, and at this point I just have to hit one button, that's it, all I have to do is hit one button. I'm happy with this and I applied the LUT, I did a little tweaking of the, the, sort of the transformed this primary layer. I'm simply going to come up to the upper left hand corner and there's a little icon that actually looks like a Premiere Pro project file or sort of the splash screen. I'll simply click on that. >> because I noticed SpeedGrade doesn't have a lot of menus.
>> Right. Right. Exactly. Says, hey do you want to save your changes? At this point, what it's really doing is, saving your Premiere Pro project file from within SpeedGrade. >> All right. >> So, I'll go ahead and click Yes. And SpeedGrade stops. Hey, it automatically jumps me back over into Premiere. And you'll notice that this clip has been color corrected as we did with the LUT and Lancaster. >> And if we click on that clip, does an effect show up in the effect browser. >> Exactly, so here we go we have the lumetri effect. If I toggle that on and off. >> Oh yeah? >> Here's the original shot that we had, and then, with the work the LUT transform that we did, as well as with that little minor tweaking.
This is huge! Because if you don't know anything about color correction. You can simply just jump over SpeedGrade real quick, apply a LUT, do a quick, you know, quick color correction and. >> And now I can copy and paste attributes to other clips from the same scene without having to jump over? >> That's an important point. Just keep in mind, that if you had the same footage. Yes, this lumetri will work. >> The same scene? >> Correct. Now if hadn't done that tweaking with the primary color correction. I just applied the LUT. Then yeah, you could consider that a, sort of a more universal thing. And in fact, when we come back, Rich, I want to show you another workflow using SpeedGrade.
When we're not going to do this direct link stuff, you might want to develop a LUT or a .look file, as SpeedGrade calls it, and hand it off to others and not use this direct link workflow, and I'll show you that when we come back in just a moment.

Shelly, u've just got another marriage proposal, hehe... seriusly, this is one of the best pieces I've ever seen. Original, great execution.. Im speechless. Sorry for making such a scene but just couldn't help myself.
And to all the others, congratulations on ur marvelous pieces as well, u've made this final round worth calling GRAND finals. Im so happy to see everyone participated! wow..

Sorry to have stop by so late! was sick for a while and miss the fun~
To my final contestants, may i be so nerdy as to say:
"So here we are (Sam), at the end of the world , and i am glad to have u with me." haha. But seriously, You guys/girls are the ones that inspired me to push myself, to do things i didn't think i could do, and grew artistically as much as i feel i did. I am glad i got to meet some of you, David & Karla, and i will look forward to meeting you guys, Aly & Nic. This contest has been a grand experience we can look back together, and be proud of ourselves.
To Cody, I am thankful that you persuaded me to keep myself in the contest, when i wanted to drop out after round 1. We all make excuses to ourselves about why we fail, and you drew that board away from me and i stayed. It was a panic at first, but i thought, "At very least i will die TRYING." and that was my strategy: to do the best i can do, so as to be worthy of my opponents. (A side note: Because of this experience and the confident it gave me, in our company "Ropes Course" team building exercise on Tuesday, i was able to gather up my courage and climb atop a two stories tall pole and jump off((with safety harness of course)). It was a beautiful metaphor of this contest i can always have with me: With fear sliding off, the view atop, it's the most beautiful thing i have ever seen.)
To everyone that so kindly commented on our pieces, i want to say: "Thank you. Thank you for appreciating our efforts, and thank you for your eagerness to better us in the new LMS next time!" I will look forward to seeing you guys/girls work and cheer you on. Besides the view on top of the pole, seeing your friends atop is a most beautiful sight as well.
Best wishes,

I literally said "Holy shit, Shelly" out loud when I saw yours, Shelly. My god, that's gorgeous. If I didn't know it was yours, I would have actually pegged it as a Foster piece at first glance. It reminds me a lot of some of the covers he's done lately in theme, mood and color. Overal just an incredible piece. I'd love to see it on a real fan.
Great stuff from the other 4 too, of course (nice twist on the topic, Post ).

Publisher's Description
With warmth and transparency, Bernis talks about discovering Jesus in history, too, and how it was that the Jewish Yeshua became the Gentile Jesus. By presenting historic evidence that Jesus is Messiah and refuting common Jewish objections, Bernis gives Christians the knowledge and tools they need to share their Lord with their Jewish friends in a loving, effective way.

The chapter on how current Rabbinic Judaism came about and why it's methodology for the forgiveness of sins can't be biblical, is particularly interesting.

Dwight Carlson5 Stars Out Of 5quite an excellent and enjoyable readMay 17, 2011Dwight CarlsonQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5The book undescores Jesus as a Jew and the Messiah that Jews then and now do not accept or understand. He points out that today it is often through ignorance and misleading information that his brethren are kept from learning the truth. He was astonished to actually read the new trestament and learn how Jewish it is. As a gentile I was elated to read it and see his perspective of Jesus Yeshua and believe it to be the perfect book for presenting Yeshua to Jewish friends. It is packed with facts and validation for the apologetically minded.
Sandy5 Stars Out Of 5One of the best books I have read.April 29, 2011SandyQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5A Rabbi Looks at Jesus of Nazareth, by Jonathan Bernis, is one of the best books I have read. It is a book for everyone, Jew, Gentile, believer in Christ Jesus, or non-believer.
Jonathan Bernis' writing is excellent, to the point, and without a lot of unnecessary words to fill the pages. He is a wonderful teacher.
I highly recommend this book to anyone and to everyone. Enjoy, learn, and give this book away.
And to Rabbi Bernis: please continue to write more books such as: A Rabbi Looks at Jesus of Nazareth! Thank you!

New SEC Network analyst Greg McElroy says what he thinks. At SEC Media Days, he picked LSU to beat Alabama head to head this season. During a radio show last month, he said that Les Miles has done a wonderful job, but Nick Saban is the one who created the "mindset" in Baton Rouge necessary for sustained success.
The former comment ticked off Bama fans who used social media to let their ex-BCS-title-winning quarterback know that no former Tide player should ever give an honest opinion and pick against the Red Elephants. The latter comment ticked off Miles.
Now, for years we've joked about Miles' use of the English language. He's smart and witty, but also sounds like a guy who uses one of those "Learn A New Word Everyday" calendars. There was once a website dedicated to his bizarro quotes. And we've said he sounds a bit like Damon Wayans' Oswald Bates character:
Well, Miles was at it again this week on ESPN's "Numbers Never Lie" show. Face to face with McElroy, LSU's coach let the ex-QB know -- as only the Mad Hatter could -- that the Tigers' victories should be attributed to the guys who achieved them, not the guy who left a decade ago:
"I wanna give you one point, too, about winning," he said leaning toward McElroy (who must've known he was about to get blasted). "Winning is a thing that is inherent with how you were raised. It's something you carry with you for a lifetime. And to pretend that it's brought or deposited at a place and left, it is not. It is always carried with the participants of the people that are there. Period. Just in discussion."
A stunned ESPN crew gave him applause and McElroy awkwardly joined his colleagues in their mini-cheer.
Odd. Bizarre. Quintessential Miles.

Much like Urban Decay All Nighter (made by the same company) this is a waste of money. If you REALLY want your makeup to seriously last then try Ben Nye Final Seal or Model in a Bottle setting sprays, they're cheaper & actually work. I went to a rave for New Years & several other events where you're up dancing for hours & sweating & this honestly didn't hold up, my makeup never stayed as well with this then my other sprays. I mean this sprays really fine & it's refreshing but it almost just feels like water. It doesn't make your makeup transfer, water, or rub resistant. Sure your makeup will stay on maybe a bit longer with this then without but not by much. The only good things about it is that it feels very refreshing (it sprays a very fine mist), it makes your makeup look less powdery/makeup-ey & more like skin (much like Fix +), doesn't feel heavy, drying, or shelacked but it just doesn't cut it for me, wouldn't buy it again

Fight Aficionado
IMO Brewer was underrated during his title run and is one of the forgotten gems of the late 90s. That German robbery is all that prevented him from holding a title for a longer run. I wasn't convinced that Calzaghe was a top fighter till he beat Brewer.Posted May 28, 2013 8:23 pm
It's Me, Ernie
Charles is aight. Funny, of his most excellent choices for great fights made no mention of Mayweather or the sisters. Even though the less knowledgeable fans think they are GOAT's, none of them have had a performance that would even be considered for the top 100 greatest fights of all time…Posted May 28, 2013 8:05 pm
hi everyone. i love chukyPosted May 28, 2013 5:30 pm
Fight Aficionado
Good to see Charles Brewer getting some props. He was one of my favorite boxers in his day. Still have a few of his fights on VHS. One day I'll get them converted to DVD.Posted May 28, 2013 5:26 pm
Yep, Calzaghe avoided Tarver – who had just lost to Hopkins. He avoided Froch – who at the very peak of his powers went on to lose to a faded, inactive version of Kessler. And Calzaghe also avoided Dawson – who shortly after lost to Pascal – who immediately afterwards lost to an even older Hopkins. …. and to cap it all off, Calzaghe avoided these three fighters to sneak off and face a prime Mikkel Kessler in front of 50,000 fans, to face the linear Light Heavy Champ Hopkins in Vegas to become a double Ring Champ himself, and the legendary RJJ in MSG. When clearly he should have faced Froch in Nottingham – the cobra, who back, had just had his greatest victories, a life and death struggle with Magee, and stoppage of the shell of Reid. Wow, what a ducker!Posted May 28, 2013 2:13 pm

"Calzaghe ducked a very young undefeated Froch in favor of fighting a cherry-pick like Peter Manfredo… " Nope.. Wrong again TARK.. Calzaghe was due to fight his mandatory IBF challenger Robert Stieglitz, but HBO refused to screen the fight unless Calzaghe fought Contender star Manfredo Jr instead. So Calzaghe had to drop the IBF belt he had just won off Lacy.. Then after that fight Calzaghe fought the WBC and WBA champion Kessler.. Then Hopkins.Posted May 28, 2013 1:07 pm
Calzaghe ducked a very young undefeated Froch in favor of fighting a cherry-pick like Peter Manfredo… I hate this type of cherry-picking to avoid a defeat at any cost.. Calzaghe-Froch was the biggest fight in England and Joe chickened out of a fight I really wanted to see.. Add to that Froch called Joe out repeatedly and actually beat Kessler twice in the minds of many — the first time going into the fight injured and getting robbed in Denmark with an outrageous referee who kept running in to break up non-clinches when Kessler was in trouble.
Calzaghe also avoided Dawson and Tarver, and their styles would have been very, very tough for him — as would Froch's. I also rank Froch above Calzaghe. Not that he couldn't have beaten him. But Froch was never given the chance to prove he could score the upset.Posted May 28, 2013 11:05 am
…to be fair he has limited his list to post war fighters, so can be excused of the Wilde omission. But still, ranking a two division linear champ below a one division alphabet champ is perplexing. It could be a wind up job, but I doubt it, because there's a lot more people who will believe it face value than will be wound up by it! Casual fans have a fickle, out with the old, in with the new type of attitude. And Jeff has just reinforced that in their minds. A win over a 49 year old Hops and Froch will surely be better than Lewis…followed by a win over SOG, will probably make him greater than Ray Robinson in the eyes of Powell.Posted May 28, 2013 9:39 am
Kev …Yep. He may just be just trying to provoke a reaction but to exclude Jimmy Wilde from the list, underlines his ignorance regarding boxing. It's very unfortunate for the sport of boxing in the UK that there's a journalist like this covering these big fight stories. He has a very influential position, and for most casual fans, if it's in the paper, it's fact. I hope Slater is at the front of the queue for Jeff Powell's job. Really, I do!Posted May 28, 2013 9:13 am
I just read this article, you're right it is a shocker, beyond.
Benn at 4 wtf, Froch at 5, higher than Calzaghe at 6.
I nearly fell off my chair reading this.
How does a number 2 in the division that's never been no:1 outrank a guy that was undisputed two weight champ with a legend on his record at LHW in America.
Name me a victory on Froch's record as good as that?
When did Froch ever step up to LHW and get a win in America against a legend.
A legend that has since gone on to school Pavlik, Pascal and Cloud.
Name me a victory at SMW as good as a prime undefeated Kessler on Froch's record?
Froch is '0' with a shopworn Kessler – lost one won one.
Froch has decent opponents in a row when you look at Calzaghe's he has as many but spread out and A+ in Hopkins at at different weight and undefeated.
Shocking – how can you rate a one divsison alphabet champ that got owned by Andre Ward above a Ring Mag champ at 2 weights. Simply put Calzaghe shoul be no:1 post war.
Worst of all though – no Jimmy Wilde not there (undoubtedly should be no:1 on the list) , Freddie Welsh, Jim Driscoll, Ted Kid Lewis would all make my top 6.
Clearly he doesn't have a clue what he's talking about.
He's an embaressment to boxing journo's.Posted May 28, 2013 8:32 am

That smile on Tim's face said, "Whew… I made it."Posted May 27, 2013 5:50 pm
I tried to respond to the Mail article in their comments section pointing out a few home truths along the way. It appears that they're not interested in posting them though. Still, whilst digesting Powell's ill-informed drivel I remembered a great quote from Hugh MacIlvanney (a real boxing writer) about Joe Bugner – "the physique of a greek statue but with fewer moves". Quality stuff.Posted May 27, 2013 4:46 pm
Just read the Mail article Popkins. Ought to have been entitled "10 reasons why Jeff Powell can't get a job on a quality newspaper".Posted May 27, 2013 3:07 pm
The Judge
I read that about Froch and Calzaghe also, I did smile and wonder what the writer might have been smoking.Posted May 27, 2013 2:40 pm
In hindsight, it turns out Calzaghe was never really that good. He was protected. And there's no way he could have beaten the superior 2013 version of Kessler, let alone Froch's next blockbuster opponent – a 49 year old Hopkins. Seriously, I read it in the UK's Daily Mail today – Froch is Britain's No.5 best fighter of all time, and Calzaghe is No.6. And if it's in the paper it must be true.Posted May 27, 2013 2:19 pm
…and also on wikipedia, I've discovered that none of the other guys I mentioned were involved in a Showtime tournament so they could not have possibly been stars of the sport, making the boxers themselves substandard. And it turns out, the presence of some volacnic ash in the run up to the first Kessler/Froch fight, later meant the result was reversed, and the otcome was called a No Contest, so Froch never really lost.Posted May 27, 2013 2:14 pm
Monkey…on second thoughts, no you're right, I was being a bit naive. I checked on wikipedia, and Lacy was in fact only 5 foot 3 and had no previous amateur experience either. He was also partially sighted and he never knocked anyone out – they were all cut stoppages, so he had no power either.Posted May 27, 2013 2:08 pm
With JC in each of them, that's easily enough fighters to fill TWO Super 6 tournaments…and still be undefeated. Holy smoke…I think Calzaghe was actually a good, no, great fighter. Maybe he, like Brewer, needs a little more credit??…Posted May 27, 2013 2:01 pm
Ok "far better" is an exaggeration but my point is he was a genuine SM who had plenty of fight still in him and was prepared to take on anyone. C'mom Popkins received/revisionist wisdom tells us that Lacy was in fact a one-legged, blind, toothless midget whose defeat by JC must be erased from all official records because it counts for nothing in retrospect. Lucian Bute on the other hand is probably the finest all round P4P boxer of the 21st century thus far…nurse, NURSE!!!Posted May 27, 2013 1:58 pm
…even a 2008 RJJ would have had a damn good chance against Abraham, Taylor and Green?…Posted May 27, 2013 1:56 pm
…a prime 2005-07 Kessler would surely have done pretty well too…Posted May 27, 2013 1:54 pm
…and Lacy (the pre-JC hammered version)…Posted May 27, 2013 1:49 pm
…and Bika…Posted May 27, 2013 1:47 pm

…and Woodhall…Posted May 27, 2013 1:44 pm
In fact, Byron Mitchell could easily have held his own in the Super 6 too…Posted May 27, 2013 1:44 pm
Charles Brewer was a very underrated champion, far better than the fighters mentioned by popkins, hold on a minute he couldn't have been that good cos he was one of Calzaghe's many soft opponents…rhubarb, rhubarb….Posted May 27, 2013 1:38 pm
don't care
pryor arguello 1Posted May 27, 2013 1:38 pm
Brewer was a great fighter to watch. IBF champ and robbed twice against Ottke in Germany. It's a shame Brewer wasn't around today, as he would have definitely been worthy of a place in the Super 6 tournament, it would have made him a bigger star for sure. I bet "The hatchett" could have easily held his own with Super 6 fighters like middleweights Taylor and Abraham, and the likes of Green and and an oldie like Johnson.Posted May 27, 2013 1:30 pm
good list and i also think that hagler VS hearns is the best fight ever and hagler is my All Times favorite fighter
Very good value for money fighter. Good championPosted May 27, 2013 1:10 pm

Cuts in Funding Threaten Working Families
By Nick Tabor & Kentucky New Era
At her daycare, Hattie Waddell only charges parents $95 a week to watch their kids for 40 or 50 hours and feed them two meals every day. This is exactly the amount most of her clients — who earn minimum wage, or something near it — receive in government subsidies. This way they don't have to pay extra from their own pockets. But the state is making a series of cuts to the subsidies, starting Monday. After this summer, only the poorest clients will remain eligible; the rest will lose their subsidies after whenever their yearly renewal term ends.

A Bunch of Legend of Zelda Props On a Shirt
I love this T-shirt; it has so many of the weapons and items the classic video game character Link called his own over his prolific career at Nintendo. Buy the shirt here.

35 year old woman | Sapulpa, OK, USA | Seeking men 25-45 within 50 miles
....all that I'm after is a life full of laughter...
I'm a mom of 2 boys. My kids are my world. I'm looking for someone to be friends with and am leaving the door open to possibilities if that special someone shows up. I love meeting new people and making new friends. I have applied to nursing school soon and am willing to work hard to provide a good lifestyle for my family. In a relationship, I am seeking someone that will do the same. All the while I'm still taking classes to go to medical school as that has been my lifelong dream. I'd like to meet someone and become friends first. I like to move a little slow at times as I see no need to rush things. I prefer to let things flow naturally. My kids and I love to travel when time allows! Openmindedness is important to me as is someone who communicates effectively. I am honest, kindhearted, faithful, loyal, and drama free and would like someone who is the same. Playing games has never been something I do nor do I care to be played. I believe very much in fairness in a relationship, if you don't want me to do it then be respectful enough to not do the same thing either. I treat others the way I'd like to be treated and this is an important quality I'm looking for in someone else. Good Luck on finding your special someone!
