"Jax" has been a loving member of our family for 3 years. We adopted him from PAWS Chicago where he has had all of his shots, microchipped, etc. He is an indoor cat with all of his claws and has never had an issue scratching where he shouldn't. (We have a cat tower and scratch pad for him and that keeps him content). He is orange and white with beautiful yellow/orange eyes and a long tail.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for The Chelsea Foundation, Inc., Atlanta , GA, USA
If you believe in education, then you would think the Chelsea Foundation is a worthy cause. If you believe in children, then you would think the Chelsea Foundation is a worthy cause. I started volunteering with this organization five years ago and am as dedicated to it as ever. Though I have never met any of the other wonderful volunteers I work with or Kathleen, the foundation's stellar, persistent and caring executive, I feel as though I have met them. Emails from Kathleen or the Foundation are a bright part of my day and I look forward to continue serving this cause!

It´s been a long day up on the mountains and the Clif bar you had earlier did no justice to your hunger. Thankfully, ski resorts and towns in Colorado realize it takes more than just a chewy granola bar to satisfy famished skiers — and they reinvent their dining scene year after year. From luxury on-mountain dining to convenient cafés, here is a list of a few new dining experiences guests can find while hitting the slopes this season.
The Continental, Wolf Creek
The Continental will serve guests a variety of coffees and teas, as well as other drink items and freshly baked pastries. The espresso bar is located on Prospector Ridge, to the left of the Treasure Chairlift area.
Element 47, Aspen
Element 47 takes its name from silver's atomic number on the periodic table — an homage to Aspen's history as a mining camp. It is the reinvention of Montagna, the restaurant at The Little Nell hotel at the base of Aspen Mountain. Guests can enjoy a few small plates or a multicourse dinner labeled for one of four "elements": garden, sea, sky or field. Element 47 opens Nov. 22.
Elk Camp, Snowmass
Elk Camp does "grab and go" as only Aspen can, firing wild mushroom pizzas with fontina cheese and truffle oil in a custom-build pizza oven and roasting chicken and pork loin to be served on baguettes. The new mid-mountain restaurant and events center, located at the top of the Elk Camp Gondola, is scheduled to open on Thanksgiving Day.
Mountain Standard, Vail
Mountain Standard is a new iteration of Vail's Sweet Basil. With the same creators and in same building as its predecessor, Mountain Standard is intended to be the more relaxed version of Sweet Basil. Guests can choose from simple and rustic fare of rotisserie chickens, fresh salads and applewood grilled steaks while enjoying the view of Gore Creek. Mountain Standard is set to open in early December.
Park & Main, Breckenridge
This is the latest of brothers Ken and Todd Nelson's restaurant ventures, adding to Giampietro's Pizzeria and Empire Burger in Breckenridge. Park & Main focuses on quick service for skiers in a hurry, plating a variety that includes Vietnamese banh mi and zucchini parm sandwiches.
Raven's Roost, Wolf Creek
This new full-service bar will be stocked and ready to serve at the start of the upcoming ski season. It will be located on the top level of Raven's Nest, the glass restaurant located on the top of the Raven Lift.
Take Four Quad Grille, Powderhorn
This new outdoor eatery at Powderhorn will be located at the top of the Take Four Lift and will be a cash-only joint. The menu will include burgers, brats, grilled chicken and soft drinks.

I'm going to let the video do the talking here, but this could be one of the greatest mash-up videos we've ever seen.
Titled 'Hells Club,' and gloriously edited by YouTuber Antonio Maria Da Silva, and his Amdsfilms, Hell's Club features a ten-minute dance-off with Heather Graham dancing on down with Mark Renton from Trainspotting, Obi-Wan Kenobi from Star Wars, Cameron Diaz from Charlie's Angels, Blade, Johnny Castle from Dirty Dancing and John Travolta from Saturday Night Fever. Then there's an awesome shoot-out showing The Terminator face-off with Robocop, Tom Cruise's Vincent from Collateral, Scarface and Carlito from Carlito's Way, and many more. This is just glorious.
Watch it now. Please, just watch it now. Just brilliant.

It seems like every single conceivable thing in a movie is part of a supercut or mashup these days. But most of those videos do little more than assemble a roll call of clips culled from YouTube. They're basically just audio-visual listicles. That's not the case with Hell's Club, which is one of the coolest movie mash-ups we have ever seen. Created by editor Antonio Maria Da Silva, Hell's Club imagines a place where countless movie icons all hang, danc together, fight together, drink together, and sometimes die together. It may sound like a weird proposition, but the way he manages to cut together the Terminator, Tom Cruise's hitman from Collateral, Sharon Stone's vixen from Basic Instinct, and many, many, many more pop culture icons into one scene is just...

Christian Bale to headline Enzo Ferrari movie Enzo Ferrari movie in the works with Christian Bale playing the legendary car magnate.
Christian Bale is to play the legendary Enzo Ferrari in a new biopic based on the Italian car magnate. The film will be directed by Michael Mann (Public Enemies, Collateral), and will be adapted from Brock Yates' 1991 book "Enzo Ferrari: The Man, the Cars, the Races."
There isn't an official title for the film as yet, but two scripts are said to have been merged together, both adapted from the book; one by Troy Kennedy Martin (The Italian Job) and another by David Rayfield (Out of Africa).
Enzo Ferrari movie will be directed by Michael Mann
Deadline, who broke the news say that the film takes place in 1957, a year where passion, failure, success and death and life all collided. They add that Mann and his team »

According to Deadline, Christian Bale has closed a deal to play Enzo Ferrari in a film set to be directed by Michael Mann. Currently going under the title Ferrari, the project is still in the very early stages of being set up and won't go in front of the camera until next summer. However, Mann has been hard at work on it for a while, close to 15 years, in fact.
The film is set to take place in 1957, "a year where passion, failure, success and death and life all collided." Deadline also reports that a big part of Ferrari will be the love story, and several high profile actresses are circling the female lead role. With Bale now on board, expect a co-star to join him soon.
Seeing as Michael Mann hasn't made a good film since 2004's Collateral, we're certainly hoping this project is a return »

First announced at Cannes two years ago, Luc Besson and his EuropaCorp accomplices' Transporter reboot is now almost upon us. Ed Skrein (Ill Manors and, more recently, Deadpool's Ajax) takes over the driving seat from Jason Statham this time in The Transporter Refuelled, directed by Camille Delamarre (Brick Mansions). And here's the latest trailer, in which the unusually decent Audi driver hurts a number of fools and wrecks a number of vehicles, as is traditional and required. There's also a snazzy jump over a plane. We do love a good car jump.Should you be wondering, the re-casting of the main role has not also prompted the creation of a new character. This is not, we're to accept, a different transporter, but the very same Frank Martin (although we're possibly in prequel territory, which explains the hair). Martin is, you'll recall, the driver who never changes the deal and »

Tom Cruise has come a very long way since his screen debut in Franc Zeffirelli's Endless Love (1981). Thirty six movies and a whole lot of stardom later and he's still the biggest movie star on the planet. He is perhaps, also the biggest film star in movie history. You'd be hard pushed to offer up any other actor that's sustained that level of popularity and box office pull for that long. There is a good reason for this too. Cruise polarises opinion of course and there are those that would see his downfall, but in large part that's due to all things that have little if nothing to do with Tom Cruise the filmmaker.
Being Tom Cruise must take a special kind of energy. So special in fact that he has sustained that level of dash for nigh on thirty years without letting up. And if Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation, »

Like most talented performers who've doubled as quintessential movie stars, Tom Cruise doesn't always get the chance to demonstrate that he can actually act. There's often just too much Tom Cruise in the way for people to notice, especially when he lets his erratic personal life take center stage. Putting together an "essential" list for such an actor is a bit of a tightrope act, walking the line between crowd pleasing star turns and performances of real substance. That said, here are ten Tom Cruise films that are not to be missed:
Risky Business (1983) – The early 80s were awash in teen sex comedies, most of which have justifiably faded from memory. Then there's Risky Business, which not only rose above the pack, but made an indelible mark on pop culture history. It wasn't Tom Cruise's first movie, but it might as well have been: »

Anyone growing into pop culture consciousness during the mid-2000s will be familiar with a certain type of Tom Cruise, one labeled with some criticism in a recent Buzzfeed article as "Tom Cruise 2.0." To them, Tom Cruise may have first become familiar as Ethan Hunt in the first Mission: Impossible movie, as an action star who, in spite of fearful insurance agents and publicists, prefers to do his own stunts—especially if they include declaring maniacal love for Katie Holmes atop Oprah Winfrey's couch. He was probably their first introduction to the alien world of Scientology, or perhaps already known as the face of another hero thrust into the supernatural, having once served as the model for the titular character in Disney's Aladdin.
This Tom Cruise, in spite of several critical successes in the past 10 years, has yet to shake completely the straws of tabloid fodder that prick up every time someone dares, »

Matthew Lee on his respect for Tom Cruise…
Since 2006, Tom Cruise has been reduced to, for lack of a better phrase, a global joke; a quick source for derision, slander, and mockery among the A-List Hollywood performers for the masses to prod at. There was his Jumping the Couch moment on Oprah, the uncomfortable Scientology interview, his termination with Paramount studios, and M:i:iii underperforming at the box office. In short, 2006 was not a good year for the iconic A-Lister.
Despite such set-backs Cruise still produces and stars in critically and financially successful movies, which proves his presence in Hollywood is unscathed. One needs only to look at 2011's Mission Impossible – Ghost Protocol, which would become Cruise's highest grossing film to date, or the last few films that have received critical acclaim i.e. Edge of Tomorrow. Further, when one looks at Cruise's career, one gets a sense that »

Few A-list movie stars these days have been as durable as Tom Cruise. He can take a licking and keep on ticking, while still showing us something new from time to time. With the release this weekend of Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation, I wanted to take a look at the career of Cruise and pick out his very best acting jobs. As such, below you can find what I feel to be his top ten performances to date. While he's focused on action roles of late, I think the next stage of his career will return him to drama, which is exciting, as he's overdue an Academy Award. As always, this is just my take on things, but I do hope that you enjoy! Here now are what I think are the ten best performances of Cruise's so far… 10.

★★★☆☆ The evocation of a western villain may be a happy coincidence, but with cyber-thriller Blackhat (2014) Michael Mann remains recognisably concerned with the masculine duels around the law's fraying edges. Again, Mann focuses on characters racing along legal blurred lines; in this case, though, they are the kind that carry packets of shimmering data as well as the more traditional cops and criminals. In a bravura opening sequence, Mann reconstitutes the pulsating bird's-eye views of La from Collateral (2010) into a vision of a world ensnared in digital communications, before crash-zooming into a macro-metropolis as a piece of glowing computer code traverses the internal workings of a nuclear plant.

Blackhat, 2015.
Directed by Michael Mann.
Starring Chris Hemsworth, Tang Wei, Viola Davis, Holt McCallany and Wang Leehom.
After a Hong Kong nuclear plant and the Mercantile Trade Exchange in Chicago are hacked by unknown perpetrators, a federal agent proposes that the FBI work with China to find the cyber-criminals. The leader of the Chinese team, Chen Dawai, insists that convicted hacker Nick Hathaway be released from prison to help with the investigation. As Nick and his comrades chase their quarry, it becomes evident that the hackers have a sinister motive for their actions.
How can I put this.
I found my discovery that the Blu-ray itself was transparent far more interesting than anything its contents had to offer. That sums it really.
Can this really be from the same director who gave us Heat and Collateral? Those films were taut and powerful with fantastic performances. This however is barely coherent and worst of all… »

About an hour into my viewing of Blackhat I was struggling to remain conscious from boredom. About an hour later I was glued to my seat, my eyes and ears on full alert for whatever the film was going to throw at me next. So you'll understand when I say I have considerably mixed feelings about crime maestro Michael Mann's latest film. It's his first since 2009′s Public Enemies, a film the subject of which (John Dillinger's battle against the authorities in the 1920s) I was intrigued by but was severely ill-served by its amateurish and distracting digital handicam cinematography.
While that film disappointed after the electric promise of Collateral (I didn't catch Miami Vice, perhaps luckily), my expectations were set lower for Blackhat, a »

Say whatever you want about Jason Statham, but at the end of the day, you know exactly what you are going to get in Stath flick. Action, arse kicking, a couple of lovely dolly birds, his short right off and some kick-ass one liners. To celebrate the release of his new film Spy, which arrives in cinemas on Friday 5th June, we thought we'd count down our favourite Stath moments that have been captured on film over the years since his debut in 1998's Lock Stock & Two Smokin' Barrels. We love him. We all love him.
"Protection from what? Ze Germans?" Snatch (2000)
Stath plays… Turkish
Shirt On, or Shirt Off? – Shirt On
Possibly the film that secured Stath as a Hollywood leading man. His turn as Turkish is perhaps my favourite role that Statham has portrayed on screen. The film is full of one liners and fun interactions, particularly »

It was not a fun experience watching Michael Mann's Blackhat. Not only was it a terrible film, but it was a terrible film from one of my favorite filmmakers, a filmmaker that seems to be moving closer to the lackluster output of Ridley Scott and farther away from the man that made the likes of Collateral, The Insider and Heat. So, just as my interest in Scott's The Martian isn't too high, I can't say I'm all that intrigued when it comes to Mann's next project, which Variety reports is the long-gestating "Ferrari" biopic, about Italian automotive mogul Enzo Ferrari. We first reported on this project back in May 2011 when word was 20th Century Fox would distribute Go Like Hell, a film based on A.J. Baime's "Go Like Hell: Ford, Ferrari, and Their Battle for Speed and Glory at Le Mans" with a script by Jason Keller »

Is love in the air between Katie Holmes and Jamie Foxx?
The two's alleged romance started in August 2013, when the 47-year-old Annie star reportedly wooed the former Dawson's Creek actress, 36, at the 4th annual Apollo in the Hamptons bash. Now, more than a year and a half later, Us Weekly reports that the two have been discreetly hooking up, and has the first photo of the attractive pair holding hands.
In the flirty picture, Jamie is looking at Katie while she appears to be reading something on her phone, the two also playing a little footsie.

Teresa Wright movies: Actress made Oscar history Teresa Wright, best remembered for her Oscar-winning performance in the World War II melodrama Mrs. Miniver and for her deceptively fragile, small-town heroine in Alfred Hitchcock's mystery-drama Shadow of a Doubt, died at age 86 ten years ago – on March 6, 2005. Throughout her nearly six-decade show business career, Wright was featured in nearly 30 films, dozens of television series and made-for-tv movies, and a whole array of stage productions. On the big screen, she played opposite some of the most important stars of the '40s and '50s. It's a long list, including Bette Davis, Greer Garson, Gary Cooper, Myrna Loy, Ray Milland, Fredric March, Jean Simmons, Marlon Brando, Dana Andrews, Lew Ayres, Cornel Wilde, Robert Mitchum, Spencer Tracy, Joseph Cotten, and David Niven. Also of note, Teresa Wright made Oscar history in the early '40s, when she was nominated for each of her first three movie roles. »

Escape to Iniala Beach House Resort in Phuket
An unforgettable escape, the luxury Siam Villa was designed by Thai designer Eggarat Wongcharit, at the Iniala Beach House resort in Phuket, Thailand. Overlooking the Andaman Sea, the five-acre property comprises three villas (each with three suites), and one spectacular penthouse suite.
The $22,750 starting rate for a sybaritic one-week stay in a three-suite villa—with plenty of room for three couples or a family—offers much in return, not least your own private spa and a full staff that includes a driver, a butler, and a chef.
Description from the architects: The residence is a masterpiece of design fusing traditional Thai architecture with organic, contemporary forms. World-renowned designers of the villas include The Campana Brothers of Brazil, A-cero from Spain, Joseph Walsh of Ireland, Mark Brazier-Jones of New Zealand, Graham Lamb from Britain and Thailand's Eggarat Wongcharit. Every bedroom and living space is completely different. The Beach House has 10 bedrooms spread over 3 individual villas and a spectacular Penthouse. Every bedroom and living space is startlingly different; a unique expression from the masters of contemporary design from all around the world.
Villa Siam
Villa Siam is designed by Eggarat Wongcharit and is a maximalist fantasy inspired by Thai culture and Buddhism; includes beds and sofas suspended from the ceiling by wicker bamboo. The villa's own spa is located within an ancient golden Thai bell, with Buddhist teachings translated into English inscribed in the walls. Eggarat Wongcharit's extraordinary creations use a modern take on traditional Thai craftsmen's techniques. Intricate wickerwork and glass mosaics grace his eclectic and daring rooms of the villa, and his work is unique and original.
Common areas: inspired by nearby Phang Nga Bay, all of the furniture is Thai as well as the artwork, and a collage of small pictures of Buddha are "protected" by being wrapped in a crochet hanging on the wall. The room pays a tribute to the sacred Buddha with three large illuminated images on the wall behind hanging white sofas covered with mother of pearl. A wrapped pagoda with traditional Thai weaving expanding over it onto the ceiling ties the room's contemporary lines and Thai roots seamlessly together, and the weaving incorporates an elaborate dream catcher facing down upon guests as they walk in. A dining table seats up to six, with the backdrop of eclectic and playful waving cats.
Beyond the living room is perhaps the most breathtaking part of Villa Siam – The Spa. A golden dome inscribed with Buddhist teachings translated into English, and hand cut mirrors in the shower and toilet areas are placed in a traditional Thai technique commonly used in the building of temples. This Spa also has a traditional Thai steam room and is inspired by a temple in the mountains of northern Thailand.
Lotus Suite: Inspired by the symbolism of the Lotus flower
This mystical suite is aptly named for the lotus pads splashed on the ceiling over the bed, very Thai in style and with much symbolism. In Buddhist teachings, whatever is on top of water is said to be elevated. The lily pads over the bed are inverted so that while the guest sleeps, their spirit is elevated in their dreams. Another mother of pearl suspended sofa accompanies the bed. In the bathroom, a Thai graphic designer was commissioned to create a lotus fish on a large piece of resin.
Siamese Suites
The complementary Siamese Suites (two bedrooms) are absolute beachfront and serve as each other's ying to yang. The symmetry of the rooms are opposite using white and natural wood, and the suites have cocoon beds with the traditional Thai weaving technique used with bamboo, giving the rooms a fresh scent. Each room also has outdoor jungle showers, the walls covered with vibrant green plant simulations.

Majestic oceanfront retreat on Turks and Caicos Islands
The Bella Vita Villa is a contemporary oceanfront retreat integrating indoor / outdoor living, designed by Prototype Design Lab, located in the Turks and Caicos Islands. The villa explores lightness, filtering natural breezes, layers of transparency and integrating indoor / outdoor spaces within dynamic patterns of light and shadow, providing a simple frame within which a contemporary sustainable lifestyle can unfold.
Description from the architects: The beachfront facade is almost entirely sliding glass openings to maximize on the view, natural light andfresh breeze of the ocean. The villa is wrapped on the top and bottom by solid concrete bands which extend along the sides of the house to become the solid entrance facade.
The entrance evokes a fortress-like grandeur, into which a masterfully crafted, poured-in place concrete frame successively recedes toward an door of a more intimate human scale. This drama is counterbalanced by the old-world beauty of an original, hand-carved wood door, reclaimed and imported from India. Lighting helps nighttime visitors appreciate the full effect of the majestic doorway, with its receding concrete panels.
The layering continues in the foyer with a custom lace patterned grand staircase cantilevered off of a board-form concrete wall.The connection between the expansive deck, LED-lit negative-edge pool, and living spaces is dynamicand direct.
At the heart of the house, an expansive great room is an entertainer's dream, featuring 30-foot ceilings, a large chef's kitchen and a twosided indoor-outdoor fireplace above which sunlight is filtered through the custom laser-cut chimney pattern. The secluded white beach is a focal point with which almost every room in the villa enjoys a connection.
Let there be lightness: sunlight streams through the open beachside facade, filtering through the custom cut-steel fireplace to create patterned shadows within. By night, its illuminated column serves as a beacon when viewed form the beach.
The grand staircase lives up to its name. The drama is created using laser-cut steel panels designed by the architect, fabricated in Toronto, and then shipped to the island along with reclaimed heavy-timber beams for the stairs.
The villa's bathrooms incorporate floating fixtures of glass and chrome played against black Brazilian slate walls and floors.
Lower-level beachfront bedrooms have the added benefit of direct access to the deck and pool areas.

That's some amazing mapping!
Pinned between the post-dawning of fights between the large nations of western civilization; pinned between the bearing of authoritarian thumb on the ruling of mental health of yourself; pinned between the frightening idea of taking on someone's problems, as heavy as they are; pinned between boundaries, experiencing the wicked in a tight lens, evolving yourself blind. - The crazy train has let the brakes off, and you're about to have yourself nose-pinned.
We're picking more media to show, and today is news-day(!)
Posted by TωısтeđHeαdαcħe on Dec 1st, 2013
It's odd. You'd think after all this time of explaining, attempting to build bridges, conversations between the developers and trying our best to make the credits stand-out in news-articles or media releases, people would stop harshing this page due to the usage of user-submitted content.
It's also odd that this page remains at 240 (at the time of writing) subscribers, but 42, 000 views(!) That is an immense number; 40, 000, even looking through the watchers page, you'll see that 240 is much larger that how you'd assume! But, even with this said, we really don't know what the next move should be, we've tried releasing environmental media, the first time we did that; Yeah-sure, we got 62 watchers, but some real-un-helpful, negative comments. The second time being accused of stealing the map from another popular MOD, which was just, just something. - We've tried releasing sound-effect-design articles, which didn't go to-bad, but lost some novelty, then we attempted to fix-up the page with a developer voice-over by Michael Potok, explaining Maker's Lair and Wicked Evolving, just until we can deliver that in a better medium, of-course.
All of these never really got us anywhere, sure we got watchers and views, but that's not what we're looking for. Comments or conversation is our great 'reward' from releases, and we've been lacking them since a few months after the page was designed. So, I guess it's time to kick-the-donkey, burn the hair and whack the metal, or what-ever they say in new-England now, as we release another set of environmental media.
Let's do that now;
Environments. The environments we're showing-off today have either a small amount of significance, or tons. The best way to explain them is through the DR note and a script preview.
We're going to need those now, or just go-in blind & dumb by scrolling down real-fast.
Final (SET) Design:
Total (SET) Design Time: 1 Day
Total (CUT-SCENE) Design Time: 17 Days
Total Texture Design Time: 3 Days
Total Grass Shader Design Time: 16 Hours
Please, leave your thoughts, it only takes a moment and helps a great deal. Thank you.

MILWAUKEE -- There's something special about Opening Day. In Milwaukee it means warmer temperatures are on the way, though the high temperature outside of Miller Park is just 35 degrees Monday. The bunting was hung around the park, and fans lined up to get into the parking lot before 9 a.m. - over four hours before Yovani Gallardo will throw the first pitch of the 2013 season. For Brewers owner Mark Attanasio, it's already his ninth Opening Day since purchasing the team prior to the 2005 season. "It does not get old," Attanasio said. "I saw the fans outside tailgating. A bunch of notes from friends all over the country, and of course having my dad sing the National Anthem for the ninth season, it's really fun." There's extra excitement and an extra pep in Milwaukee's step after adding free agent right-hander Kyle Lohse just one week ago. One of the best pitchers in the National League the past two seasons, Lohse will certainly improve the Brewers this season, but Attanasio had to we...

Art Print by John Paul Wellington Furse | #425862
This high quality print is based on a watercolour of tulip varieties by John P.W. Furse. A Rear-Admiral, Furse retired from the Royal Navy in 1959. He made several trips to Turkey, Iran, Iraq, Russia and Afghanistan collecting bulbs many of which he brought back to RHS Wisley. Vice-Chairman of the RHS Lily group, he was awarded the Victoria Medal of Honour in 1965.
Expertly printed in our Sussex studios, this print is produced to exacting museum conservation standards using inks and papers developed to create a perfect reproduction.

We partner with the world's top museums and galleries to bring you exclusive prints of the highest quality. Our teams of designers ensure the colours are accurate, papers are well suited and the best frames are suggested.
In the printing room, artworks are printed on state-of-the-art machines with a team of technicians checking colour and quality every step of the way.
After being cut down to size, our team carefully finish any stray edges, check measurements and prepare the prints for mounting and framing.
We have a team of master framers who work with high-quality, responsibly-sourced wood to create our vast range of framing combinations - each frame is bespoke and made to order for every print.
Our selection of hand-finished frames are painted or stained by hand in a variety of colours, and finished with a layer of wax - the end result is a uniquely crafted, beautiful frame that is made to last.
In this workshop everything comes together - the print, the frame and the glass - in a seamless and stream-lined process.
The artwork is carefully mounted in preparation for framing.
Once mounted, the print is ready to be covered by glass or perspex - a delicate procedure but expertly done with not a fingerprint in sight.
After a final, thorough check, the framed print is ready to be carefully packaged up and shipped to the customer.
For those who order their art as canvas prints, the same amount of attention and care goes into the process. Here, the print is being transferred to a wooden frame.
As with the framed prints, our canvases are all hand-finished in the workshop - a labour of love from start to finish.

With my upscaling DVD player, why is the HDMI picture worse than composite?
Started by Glenshaw, Apr 23 2012 05:07 AM
6 replies to this topic
#1 of 7 OFFLINE
Posted April 23 2012 - 09:07 AM
I'm wondering if anyone can shed some light on this issue. I have a Sony upscaling DVD player and a 22" Sylvania LCD 720p set. The composite video looks great -- nice and crisp. I switched to using an HDMI cable that I received free with my DVR a couple years ago. The cable did not have a brand name on it. Because I still have the composite cables plugged in, I can switch back and forth and compare the pictures from both inputs. The HDMI picture is noticeably worse than the composite. I have it set at 720p. I thought it would be significantly better. Whenever a blank expanse comes up, mainly when it's surrounded by other dark objects, grain is very noticeable -- little swimming grainy spots. On the composite, this grain is not evident, or it is very faint. I have found differences between films; some look better in the HDMI and some worse, but all look worse than the composite picture. The only advantage to HDMI is that it gives you a tiny more picture image on the sides. Does anyone know what might be the cause? I've come across a comment that the quality/brand of the HDMI cable might affect its picture, and also that a shorter cable will give you a better image as well. The cable I have is pretty long, at least six feet, and I don't need it to be that long. I'm also wondering whether I might have damaged one of the ports when inserting the cable, as those ports seem pretty fragile. Does anybody have a clue?

It's either a bad cable or the HDMI input is bad.
#3 of 7 OFFLINE
Posted April 24 2012 - 03:56 PM
It's not cable length, as 6' is fairly common. Does your TV have to be set for every input? Are there settings for composite mode and different settings for HDMI mode?

Posted April 24 2012 - 04:44 PM
Can you set the dvd player to output 480i over hdmi and let the display upconvert it? And do you mean component instead of composite?
"Everyday room": Panasonic 58" Plasma, Dish HD DVR, Pioneer Elite vsx-23, BDP-23 BR, dv58avi universal dvd player, Paradigm Studio 20 V1, CC-450, Dayton HSU-10 subwoofer.

If you are getting a picture the HDMI cable is fine. Id start with the DVD player .

The cable length is not an issue may be the HDMI input is not good. I would suggest not to use it when you get good pictures without it.

In an unsurprising report, K.C. Johnson of The Chicago
Tribune says that it's "all but a certainty" that Chicago Bulls point guard
Derrick Rose misses the remainder of the season, adding that fans should expect
the All-Star "back for training camp."
Considering it doesn't appear Rose will be back during the regular season or playoffs this year, Johnson asked coach Tom Thibodeau if the team would have been better off just declaring the guard out from the beginning.
"Obviously, you can look back and say that now, but we never felt that way. We knew it was the type of injury that takes time, so you just want to do what you feel is right. We feel like we've done that."
It's easy to forget that Rose was cleared for full scrimmaging on Feb. 18. He's since practiced well, but he continues to give no signs of playing in actual games.
Thibodeau said that there's no "drop-dead date" that Rose has to return by, as he continues to stick by his player. He reiterated that the guard is putting "a ton" into his rehab, adding that "once he feels ready, he'll go."
While some have been holding out hope that Rose would feel ready this season, most now believe he won't be back until training camp.

They were running a special that was $25/night cheaper than competition. Staff was very friendly.
No elevators so plan on hike up outside stairs.
Proximity to highway led to traffic noise that I was able to mute with the AC and some soft ear plugs.
The breakfast buffet is one of the most meager I have ever seen. Very skimpy.

... 3.40 train to Milan. This is our last train of interrailing:( Can't say it's our favourite though, in fact it's probably the worst. The air conditioning consists of windows and the leather seats are not the nicest to sit on in the sweltering heat. Lucy thinks she is going to die, or she did until she fell asleep anyway. Emma's blond hair attracted some more strange Italian youths who wished her a 'goodbye princess' several times which woke her ...

Using the bus, which we thought was great because we didn't have to pay, we made our way to sirmione. Unsure of where to go once there we followed the crowds and ended up walking through the town which was pretty and eventually we found the beach. Had lunch in a cafe overlooking the beach. Guess what we had? Of course pizza! Although ...

... of bags and bodies at the train station because even at 10.30am it was impossible not to overheat carrying 3 weeks worth of luggage (+our recent addition souvenirs), especially on the bridges which seemed to have endless steps. Emma said farewell to Venice adding 'until I'm engaged'. We had to make our first change on a train today. The first journey to Verona was smooth and I'm glad to report there was a very efficient air conditioning ...

It also introduces one of the more colorful characters in literature: Miss Havisham. Charles Dickens set Great Expectations during the time that England was becoming a wealthy world power. Machines were making factories more productive, yet people lived in awful conditions, and such themes carry into the story.
