Massive 1.1, the latest behemoth virtual instrument from Native Instruments, lives up to its name in several ways. Its morphing wavetable oscillators give you a huge starting sound palette. Filters, effects, and a flexible signal path can bend those sounds to your every need. Envelopes, LFOs, sequencers, and MIDI remote control bring your sounds to life, and a categorized browser gives you easy access to more than 500 factory presets. All this coupled with a high-resolution audio engine for aliasing-free wavetable interpolation comes with a massive CPU hit and a somewhat outsize control panel (see Fig. 1).
FIG. 1: Massive''s outsize ?control panel puts all controls at your fingertips. Color-coded modulation routings make unraveling patches easy.
Massive will run standalone or as a plug-in under both Windows and Mac OS X. VSTi, DXi, and RTAS plug-in formats are supported on the PC; AU, VSTi, and RTAS formats are supported on the Mac. The Mac version is Universal Binary and, therefore, Intel ready.
For this review, I tested Massive on my dual 2 GHz Power Mac G5 running Mac OS X 10.4.8 and on my 3.2 GHz Pentium 4 laptop running Windows XP. It performed well both standalone and as a plug-in in several hosts on both machines. Because Massive's audio thread always runs on a single processor, or on a single core of a dual-core processor, you'll need a fast CPU to get high polyphony from the synth's more demanding presets. But choosing the lowest of its three quality settings (Ultra, High, and Eco), freezing tracks if your plug-in host supports that, and using multiple instances of Massive to distribute the processing on multiple-processor machines will significantly improve performance.
At first glance, Massive looks like a fairly standard subtractive synth: three oscillators followed by filters followed by an output section consisting of an amp and two effects. For modulation you get envelopes, LFOs, pattern sequencers, and MIDI remote. A closer look reveals a dedicated Modulation oscillator, a noise generator, a feedback circuit, a couple of insert effects, and a Macro Control section. Interesting but not that out of the ordinary. It's only when you dig into Massive's individual modules and beneath-the-surface features that you begin to see and hear how different this synth really is.
Massive belongs to the burgeoning category of semimodular soft synths. You get considerable leeway in reorganizing the signal path, but you don't need to wire it from the ground up, and logical limitations are in force. The Routing tab of the Central window reveals the signal flow, and you click on various icons to change things around (see Fig. 2). For example, clicking on one of the B (bypass) icons routes the associated oscillator or noise generator directly to either of the master effects or to the EQ. Clicking on the Ins 1 and Ins 2 icons controls where the insert effects appear in the signal path. And clicking on one of the FB (feedback) icons determines where the feedback signal originates.
Several of Massive's sliders also affect the signal path. The oscillators, noise generator, and feedback circuit all have sliders for balancing their output between the inputs to Massive's two filters. The filter section's F2 slider balances the input to filter 2 between the output of filter 1 and the mix of the sound sources allocated to filter 2. For instance, with the F2 slider all the way up, the filters are in series, and filter 2 does not receive any of the source mix. With the slider all the way down, the filters are in parallel, and filter 2 receives only the source mix. In intermediate positions, filter 2 receives a portion of both signals. The filter section's Mix slider balances the output of the two filters to the output section. That means you can arrange the filters in series and still use the Mix slider to balance their outputs.
Massive's morphing wavetable oscillators are the heart of this synth. Each wavetable consists of between 2 and 128 single-cycle waveforms. These are actually multiwavetables with different wavetables used for different pitches (similar to multisampling), resulting in nearly aliasing-free operation. The 89 wavetables are allocated among 4 categories: Basic, Analog/Electric, Digital/Hybrid, and FX/Chord. You select an oscillator's wavetable using a drop-down menu. The menu's 128-slot capacity suggests that more wavetables may be on the way. Additional banks of wavetables and a utility for creating your own would be welcome additions, though the 89 provided are plenty to keep you busy.
FIG. 2: You can reconfigure Massive''s signal path by clicking on the icons in the Routing tab of the Central window.
An oscillator's Wt-position knob chooses a waveform from the selected wavetable, and there are lots of ways to modulate that knob to morph between the waveforms in the wavetable. An Intensity knob controls waveshaping-like processing of the oscillator's output, and three modes are available: Spectrum, Bend, and Formant. Spectrum and Formant apply lowpass and formant filtering, respectively. Three varieties of Bend modulate the waveform scanning rate based on the position within the waveform. That can radically change the harmonic spectrum of the output.
A new virtual-analog oscillator mode (VA Osc) has been added in version 1.1. Pulse-Saw PWM and Pulse-Saw Sync variations enable morphing between pulse and sawtooth waveforms. The Intensity knob is replaced by a Pulse-Width or Sync knob for controlling pulse-width (PWM) or hard-sync-style resetting (Sync). The aforementioned waveshaping feature is disabled in VA Osc mode.
The noise generator is standard fare, with 12 flavors of noise and a Color knob to shift the spectrum of the chosen flavor. The feedback circuit, which can take its input from various points in the signal path, has a slider for balancing its output between the two filter inputs. High feedback can push the signal over the top, but when used with discretion, this circuit adds a new dimension to Massive's sound. Try placing a delay or pitch-shifting insert effect in the feedback loop and enveloping the feedback amount (see Web Clip 1).
The Modulation oscillator in the source section is not wired into the signal path; it is an audio-frequency sine-wave oscillator that you use to modulate the other oscillators and filters. You can apply each of its modulation types — ring, phase, wavetable position, and filter cutoff frequency — to one target. Phase modulation produces results similar to FM and was in fact used in the original Yamaha DX-7. A single knob sets and displays the modulation amount for each modulation type, but the settings are independent. You'll see how important the Modulation oscillator is to Massive's sound by stepping through the factory preset bank; most of the presets use it, and many use it to modulate several targets.
FIG. 3: The sustain stage of Massive''s envelopes allows you to morph between pairs of preset shapes and loop the chosen shape a fixed or unlimited number of times.
As with all subtractive synths, Massive's filters are key to sculpting the sound. Aside from the flexible routing scheme, the feedback circuit, and the option to place insert effects before, after, and between the filters, you'll find some uncommon features. In addition to the standard 2- and 4-pole lowpass and highpass filters, you get bandpass and band-reject filters with variable bandwidth. Allpass, comb, and double notch filters are useful for phasing and flanging effects. Three lowpass variants called Scream, Daft, and Acid round out the filters. Scream has built-in feedback. Daft makes an especially good target for the Modulation oscillator. Acid is modeled on a famous mono bass synth (read: Roland TB-303).
Massive's two master effects, which appear before the EQ at the end of the signal path, include the usual suspects: reverb, flanger, chorus, phaser, and stereo delay. In addition, you get three tube-amp simulations and a room simulator called Dimension Expander that produces subtle and clean spatial effects. The EQ offers low and high shelving with a tunable center band that you can boost or cut.
The insert effects lean toward distortion. You get a bit crusher, two styles of waveshaping, a hard clipper, and an unusual sample-and-hold effect that quantizes the incoming waveform by sampling it at regular intervals and holding the sampled level in between. You also get a simple delay line (mono, no sync, no feedback), lowpass and highpass filters in series, and a frequency shifter. The frequency shifter is an unusual and welcome inclusion; it shifts all of a sound's overtones by an equal amount, thereby completely changing its timbre as well as shifting its pitch.
I've saved one of Massive's most impressive features for last. The design and implementation of modulation in Massive is as stunning as the signal routing. To start with, you get eight modulation sources: four envelope generators and four LFOs that double as pattern sequencers. The envelopes are delayed-ADSR generators, and the attack (A) and decay (D) stages have level controls. You can use that, for example, to attack quickly to one level, then decay more slowly to a higher level. The sustain stage is a morphing looper. You choose 2 shapes (from 22 preset possibilities), the number of iterations of the loop (from off to continuous), the beginning and ending level of the loop, and the morph amount between the chosen shapes (see Fig. 3).
Massive's LFOs allow you to crossfade between two shapes, and they have their own fade-in/fade-out envelopes. In addition to the standard sine, saw, pulse, and triangle waveforms, you get 31 unusual shapes, including 4 random-step patterns. You can swap any of the LFOs out for either of two kinds of pattern sequencer. A standard 16-step sequencer is useful for pitch sequencing. The 16-step Performance sequencer resembles the step sequencer, but each step is actually a curve. The Performance sequencer can generate very complex repeating patterns, and it becomes even more powerful with the addition of a pattern-randomization scheme in version 1.1 (see Fig. 4). As with the LFOs, you can crossfade between two Performance sequencer patterns.
The scheme for assigning modulators in Massive couldn't be simpler. Each modulator is numbered, and for easy recognition they are color coded by type. Virtually every control on Massive's panel, including the modulator settings, has one or more empty boxes below it. You apply modulation to a control by dragging a cross-shaped handle from the modulator to one of those boxes. The modulator's number and color appear in the box, and you drag it vertically to set the modulation amount. As you do, a color coded ring (knobs) or bar (sliders and numericals) appears to show the modulation amount. A glance at the control panel shows all the modulation in place, and the numbering and color coding make it easy to unravel.
Sidechain modulation is another Massive innovation. For many of the controls, the rightmost modulation box is labeled SC. You can use that box for normal modulation, but alternatively, you can use it to control the amount of the other modulation inputs. For instance, you could assign an envelope to control the amount of an LFO or Performance sequencer applied to the Wt-position knob, or you could assign MIDI Velocity to control the envelope amount applied to filter cutoff.
FIG. 4: Massive's Performance sequencer uses shapes as modulation sources at each step in the sequence.
Massive has a standard MIDI Learn implementation; you assign incoming MIDI continuous controller messages to any knob or slider by means of a context menu. But Massive also provides eight macro knobs along with direct access to key tracking, Velocity, Aftertouch, and a clever random-value trigger. You assign each of these sources to target knobs and sliders by dragging its handle, just as you do with the modulators. The random-value trigger emits a random value each time a MIDI note is received. Apply that to pitch for a sample-and-hold effect or to attack and decay time for subtle variations in volume contour (see Web Clip 2).
A highly customizable randomization scheme produces surprisingly useful results. You access it from the Global tab of the Central window and select random-deviation ranges for the oscillator, filter, master effects, and insert effects sections. You can randomize each section separately or all at once, and you can toggle randomization on or off for parameters, modulation depth, type, connections, matrix, and oscillator pitch. Randomization in the 5 to 10 percent range with oscillator pitch protected typically yields sounds close to the original but different enough to be useful.
Like many Native Instruments updates and new synths, Massive incorporates a Kore-compatible browser, and presets are saved in the proprietary SingleSound format. All the Massive presets are accessible in the latest version of Kore, and Massive's macro controls are automatically mapped to the knobs on the Kore controller. Twenty-eight Kore MultiSounds use Massive.
The browser classifies presets by attributes in five categories: Instrument, Source, Timbre, Articulation, and Genre. You can select multiple attributes in the last four categories to further refine your selection, and you can leave some categories blank. You can also search text attributes such as the author's name or text in the Comment field. Unfortunately, you can't mix methods, for example, to search for all presets in a certain category by a specific author. Nonetheless, the browser is very handy for finding your way through the large collection of factory presets. And you can, of course, categorize your own presets as you go.
Massive is a fascinating synth capable of an enormous range of sounds. For all of its advanced features, it is surprisingly easy to understand and program. In particular, the modulation scheme is the best I've seen in terms of both ease of use and flexibility. Whether browsing factory presets or creating your own, you won't soon tire of this synth.

April 25, 1999
WESTWOOD, Calif. -- Junior Zach Bode hit a pinch-hit home run in the ninth inning to tie the game at five, but it wasn't enough as the UCLA Bruins completed a series sweep of the Washington State Cougar baseball team with a 6-5 Pacific-10 Conference extra inning game Sunday afternoon at Jackie Robinson Memorial Stadium.
The Cougars have endured four consecutive Pac-10 series sweeps at the hands of Stanford, Arizona State, Arizona, and now UCLA. WSU has lost 13 straight league games and with an overall record of 18-22 have dropped 17 of their last 20.
UCLA evened its overall record at 24-24 and are above the .500 mark in the Pac-10 for the first time this year at 8-7. The Bruins continue to make a late run for the NCAA tournament winning nine of its last 11 games and seven straight in conference action.
Reliever Chad Cislak picked up the win out of the bullpen after blowing a save opportunity in the ninth inning. Cislak gave up three hits and one run while striking out three to improve his season record to 3-1. Starter Bobby Roe gave a solid outing giving up four runs off five hits in six and a third innings.
For the Cougars Les McTavish was saddled with the loss as he was credited with giving up the game-winning run in the bottom of the 10th. Spot starter Reggie Rivard contributed four and two-thirds innings of solid pitching giving up three runs.
WSU jumped out to an early 1-0 lead after the first inning when Ray Hattenburg (Spokane, Wash.) singled home Boyd Robertson (Richland, Wash.) Hattenburg now has a 10 game hitting streak and after going 3-for-5 Sunday is hitting .406 (67-165) on the year. Senior catcher Jeff Scherer connected on his sixth home run of the year in the fifth inning.
Not to be outdone in the first frame, the Bruins answered with two runs in the bottom half of the inning off the bat of Bill Scott. Scott drove a Rivard offering deep over the right field fence for his 17th home run of the year.
WSU started to climb back in the game with a two-run rally in the seventh inning. Shawn Stevenson tallied a run-scoring double and Boyd Robertson scored another with a sharp single up the middle. In the ninth Bode stepped to the plate as a pinch hitter with one out, and hit his eighth home run of the year to tie the game at five.
With the bases loaded in the 10th inning Charles Merricks won the game for UCLA with a single scoring catcher Jason Green. WSU is now 0-2 in extra inning games.
The Cougars will return to action this week with two non-conference games on the road at Lewis-Clark State Tuesday and at Gonzaga Wednesday. Game times are scheduled for 6:30 p.m. at Harris Field in Lewiston Tuesday, and 4 p.m. at August A.R.T. Stadium in Spokane Wednesday.
Reggie Rivard, Matt O'Brien (5), Zach Fisher (6), Sean Donlin (8), Tyson Thompson (9), Les McTavish (10), Wade Parrish (10), and Jeff Scherer. Bobby Roe, Ryan Carter (7), Chad Cislak (9), and Jason Green. W - Cislak (3-1); L - McTavish (0-3); S - None, HR - Scott (17), Bode (8), Scherer (6).
WSU Hits - Stevenson, Robertson, Hattenburg 3, Curran, Scherer, Gates, Bode.
UCLA Hits - Santora, Utley, Scott 2, Atkins, Reece, Green, Shelley, Merricks 2.
E - Scherer (5), O'Brien (1), Baron 2, Shelley. 2B - Stevenson (12).

Burlington College Institutional Aid is awarded to full-time students who meet specific need or merit criteria. If an institutional aid program is designated as a grant or a scholarship, then it is "gift aid" and although there is no requirement to repay these funds, continued eligibility may be contingent upon academic, financial need, community service or other conditional criteria.
BC Merit Awards
Recognizing that the cost of college is an obstacle for many Vermont families, Burlington College is proud to announce two Vermont First Scholarships. In an effort to make higher education a tangible goal, Burlington College is contributing more than $23,000 towards the scholarship fund for two students who have demonstrated a strong commitment to their communities, to service and leadership, and to their academics.
The Burlington College Presidential Scholarship of $20,000 is awarded to select first-year students who reflect the values of our College: a commitment to learning, civic engagement, creativity and leadership. The scholarship is disbursed at $2,500 per semester, and once enrolled, recipients must maintain satisfactory academic progress in order to maintain the scholarship.
The Burlington College Trustee Award focuses on the traits and qualities a student displayed in high school as well as future potential. This grant is renewable provided that the student maintains good academic standing and makes a positive contribution to the Burlington College community. These awards range from $500 - $5,000 for full-time students depending on the availability of funds.
Burlington College Endowed Scholarships are awarded in the spring semester and applied to the subsequent fall tuition. Recipients must be in good academic standing and have at least one year's enrollment at the college. Students may apply for these awards or be nominated by faculty, staff, or other students. Award recipients are selected in mid-April and students are notified of their awards through the Financial Aid office at that time. Award recipients are publicly recognized at Convocation in September. Awards are generally $500-$1,000 per year.
Stone's Throw Scholarships are awarded to students from New Hampshire, New York, Massachusetts, and Quebec annually. There are two awards — one for community service and one for leadership. Students must apply for these scholarships with a brief essay. The award is renewable for up to four years, provided continued eligibility is maintained. Learn more about these scholarships.
"Next Step" Transfer Student Scholarship awards up to $4,000 to students who have graduated with an Associates of Arts Degree from a Community College and have a minimum GPA of 3.0 and enroll in Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Fine Arts Degrees.
BC Financial Need Awards
The Burlington College Grant is an institutional aid program that exists to bridge the difference between tuition cost and financial aid eligibility. BC Grants are awarded to students with financial need who meet specific criteria. These awards may be as much as $5,000 for full-time students depending on the availability of funds.

So I've decided to shop for an electric folding since I'll be towing a bike trailer behind, and of course I've moved to the middle of a hilly area however most of the streets aren't like that. Now I'm a newbie and still doing research as far as folding bikes. My current bike is 26 inches, and a cruiser. My child is 50 lbs, and the trailer I believe is 32 lbs. As I'm typing this I'm wondering if a foldable like a Dahon or whichever is in the market can tow that much. Hmmm.. I plan on using my bike as my "car" like taking my kid to school if I miss the bus, picking him up from grandma, and if I can ride to school three times a week which is 7 miles away according to google maps.
My apt. is small so that's how I ended up searching for foldable in the first place. So anyone have any recommendations for electric foldable? I know NYCEWheels are suppose to be the only place in NYC that specializes in electric bikes. I wouldn't be able to put on my own electric motor to a bike, so that's out of the window. I am open to getting a plan bike, buying the electric kit separately and paying someone to install if cost wise it makes sense. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

5 Things You Didn't Know: The Inquisition
1- The Spanish Inquisition was not the InquisitionMany of us think of the Spanish Inquisition as the Inquisition, but it was only a branch operation. The Inquisition was deployed as early as 1233, when the friar-inquisitors set up operations in Southern France, and it remained in existence across Europe and elsewhere around the world (including the New World) for the next 600 years. The Inquisition was especially active in Germany and France in the Middle Ages, and in Italy during the Counter-Reformation, but it reached such far-flung colonies as Goa, Mexico and Peru. Indeed, the Inquisition was already nearly 250 years old when the Spanish Inquisition was chartered by the Pope in 1478.
2- The Inquisition did not target JewsMel Brooks embraced a common misconception about the Inquisition when he showed its victims as pious Jews put to torture on outsized slot-machine wheels in History of the World: Part I. In fact, practicing Jews fell outside the jurisdiction of the Inquisition, whose mission was to detect and punish Christians who strayed from the approved beliefs of the Roman Catholic Church. The very first victims of the Inquisition, for example, were the dissident Christians known as the Cathars, who called themselves "Good Christians" and regarded themselves to be more authentic Christians than the friars who tortured and burned them.
Only when a Jew (or a Muslim) formally converted to Christianity did he or she come under the scrutiny of the Inquisition. The Spanish Inquisition, for example, sought and punished Jews and Muslims who had converted to Christianity on the assumption that most or all of them were still secretly practicing their old faiths. A Jewish convert who changed her underwear on Saturdays, for example, or a Muslim convert who ordered a plate of couscous in a public tavern were both regarded as suitable for burning at the stake as heretics.
The Inquisition spawned a commonly used phrase and its techniques are still very much alive today...

Banking problems exist throughout the world. An International Monetary Fund (IMF) study by Lindgren, Garcia, and Saal (1996, Table 2) revealed that during the 1980–spring 1996 period, 133 of the IMF's 181 member countries had experienced significant banking sector problems. This study presents the results of a survey of banking problems and their resolution in the Group of Ten countries since 1980. Actually, the Group of Ten countries, or G-10, now refers to eleven countries: Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Switzerland, Sweden, United Kingdom, and the United States. Switzerland became a full member of the group in 1984. 1 These countries play a key role in global monetary affairs and trade. However, they were not immune from banking problems. Although bank failures in the United States have been examined extensively in the literature, bank failures in the foreign G-10 countries have been overlooked. This book is a first step in filling that void.
Most of the research for this study was conducted while I was a Visiting Scholar at the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) in Washington, DC during January–May 1997, where I was assigned to evaluate some, but not all, of the issues presented here. The issues of too-big-to-fail and bank regulation were not part of my assignment.

Questions About This Book?
What version or edition is this?
This is the 1st edition with a publication date of 2/23/2011.
What is included with this book?
- The eBook copy of this book is not guaranteed to include any supplemental materials. Typically only the book itself is included.
Present day nutrition dogma is at odds with the diet mammals have been perfected to thrive on. Cellular wisdom in the mammalian genome is the pinnacle of four billion years of evolution and is based on a diet available in the primordial world. Creative humans in the last 10,000 years have revolutionized diet with the domestication of cereal crops, but the mammalian genome has not yet adapted to a diet high in soluble carbohydrate and excess energy. 10,000 years in the history of evolution is the same as one second in five days. The mammalian species is far better perfected to deal with lack of nutrition, the constant problem evolution had to solve.Current nutrition policy gets it wrong with its emphasis on reducing fat in the diet. Why, if fat is the culprit in our diet, has fat consumption declined, yet obesity is skyrocketing, in both pets and people? Why, if fat is the reason for diet excess, does the Atkins diet cause weight loss yet allow unlimited dietary fat? Could it be that fat is not the problem? Maybe we have overlooked something. Often, while pet owners believe they are providing the best nutrition, failure to restrict carbohydrates silently robs their pets of health and longevity. The book explains how behaviour, both of pets and people, is a critical aspect of any proper diet.
Author Biography
R. Patton is an expert in animal nutrition who has worked with a wide array of clients, from pets and family farm animals to exotic zoo species and multinational corporations. He is the author of 28 scientific publications and two patents.

Hakkasan Hanway Place is the original Hakkasan restaurant. This Michelin-starred Chinese restaurant designed by Christian Liaigre, has re-created the luxurious glamour of the past by combining Chinese history, tradition and architecture.
Wooden lattice screens carved out of dark English oak invite discerning guests for a unique dining experience with contemporary cuisine from Chef Tong Chee Hwee.
The menu has a strong Chinese ethnic identity with an ethos of Cantonese cooking that will be informed by a progressive approach, underpinned by authenticity rather than traditionalism.
The bar has created an innovative range of Asian inspired cocktails.
Hakkasan Hanway Place have recently launched "Dim Sum Sundays": a weekly lunch event hosted by resident lounge DJs, available every Sunday from midday until 6.45pm.

Really impressed with this place. Highly recommended. The service was excellent. They've done a really good job of hiring friendly, personable staff which made the experience all the more enjoyable. Go here. You'll love it.more
I admit it was a selfish idea to bring my husband here for his birthday. We have both wanted to come here for ages but never seem to remember to, as its smack bang in the middle of Oxford Street/Tottenham Court Road. There is another Hakkasan in Mayfair but we wanted to try the original. We were staying at the Hoxton so we had a nice stroll to the restaurant for a pre dinner drink. Our table...more
Really nice inside. Dark and moody and a little hidden away but I like that. Eventhough it's very close to the hustle of Oxford St.
All about the Dim Sum and some cocktails. Couldn't fault the taste and quality. Pricey but that is to be expected for the reputation you know you are getting.
Will be back for one of their deals they often have running like Dim Sum Sundays.more
This is a truly great restaurant. The style of food is called "Modern Chinese," and as that implies they take liberties with the classic style and present avant-garde dishes. I went with my granddaughter for their Sunday brunch and we both enjoyed a wonderful meal. One of our favorite dishes was the Crispy Duck Salad, but we also liked the Steamed Dim Sum Platter and the Fried and...more
'Value for money' are 3 words you probably weren't expecting to see in a Hakkasan review (unless preceded by 'good luck getting your') but if you can get there by 6.30pm for dinner then congrats you're in luck!
They serve a 'Taste of Hakkasan' menu of three courses and a cocktail for £35 per person - it's tasty, filling and a steal for the price. A friend and I had a catch-up there after work...more

Hot answers tagged terminology
It is often called a lower third because it is a bar often appearing in the lower third of the image. Also sometimes a name plate or title plate.
For the three main rotations of the camera you have pan (rotation around the vertical axis), tilt (rotation around the axis passing left to right through the camera), roll (rotation through the axis passing through the center of the lens). Then there are the three main movements along those same axis. Pedestal is a movement along the vertical axis. ...
You don't need another term. Live Action is the accepted term for differentiation between, well, live action film and other kinds of movies, such as animation/3D films. It's also used consistently for this purpose, e.g. the Oscars use it in their category names: Short Film (Animated) Short Film (Live Action) Conversely, I have never seen this term ...
I can't cite any authority, but the term I've used and heard most often is handles. It's not just used for live shots, but refers to any trimmable material that allows for transition points to be adjusted, etc. In your example I'd say "this clip requires 10-frame handles".
This might even be more on-topic at English.SE, but as far as I'm concerned that's definitely called an epilogue. From Wikipedia: In many documentaries and biopics, the epilogue is text-based, explaining what happened to the subjects after the events covered in the film.
WMV is really just another name for ASF. That format, like many multimedia formats, contains its data in pieces of various types. Some formats call these packets, some call them segments. ASF, like RIFF before it, calls them chunks. There are several types of chunks, the main one being the data chunk, which holds the encoded streams. There may be several ...
What is the name of the device used in live action filming that includes information like scene, take and roll and has a part that can snap together?
It is clapperboard: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clapperboard used in filmmaking and video production to assist in the synchronizing of picture and sound, and to designate and mark particular scenes and takes recorded during a production
It sounds like you are describing shots. A scene is composed of one or more shots covering a consistent location and time. Each separate clip within the scene is simply referred to as a shot. The shot changes any time that the camera position is moved. Technically, if you are on a close up shot and cut to a wide angle and then cut back to a close up, ...
This will get migrated but the short answer is that ALL-I stores every frame in it's entirety, whereas other methods store a certain number of keyframes in entirety, with the other frames stored as the difference to the keyframe.
The only other candidate that comes to mind is photographic, as used in the same sense as in Principal Photography. And photography does literally mean the capture of light. Only hitch is that photography in lay use is firmly associated with the capture of still images.
I have heard the term padding but don't know if it's a standardized term From The Art of The Edit: To allow time for a good transition, instruct your talent to fix a gaze on the camera for two seconds before and several seconds after a narration. A quick, sideways glance for approval, a swallow or a lick of the lips before or after speaking may be ...
It's take or shot ("Einstellung" in German) and cut ("Schnitt")
You may be referring to a "teaser" or "pre-cap". These are clips of upcoming shows designed to pique your interest and remind you of an upcoming episode. An ordinary teaser usually runs separately from the program, where (what we always called) pre-caps are teasers that run at or near the closing credits for an episode -- as in "Next time on XXX..." If ...
I am not aware of any particular term for showing the schedule. It's just a schedule of upcoming programs and may include playing teasers or previews, which are the video clips to promote upcoming shows.

Egyptian Chamomile TeaEC
Product Details
There are several varieties and countries of origin of chamomile - sometimes referred to as "bachelor buttons" because of the shape of the flower heads - but the best quality comes from the Nile River delta in Egypt. The sandy loam and nutrients from the Nile create perfect growing conditions. Chamomile flowers have a yellow center and white petals - they almost look like a daisy. The essential oils in the flowers produce a pleasant soothing aroma and a fruity character. The word "chamomile" derives from ancient Greek and translates as "ground apple" in reference to the fruity aroma.
Use a heaping teaspoon per cup and steep in freshly boiled water for 5-10 minutes.

The apartment is in principle fine, but the outlet in the bathroom was (hanging out) to be repaired. Was very uncomfortable that some disgusting residents of the house had left his stool in the stairwell run free and the whole was only away on our departure. In the handover that has the lady who unfortunately only spoke Spanish, certainly noticed.
Die Ferienwohnung ist prinzipiell in Ordnung, jedoch sollte die Steckdose im Bad (hängt raus) repariert werden. Sehr unangenehm war, dass irgendein ekliger Bewohner des Hauses seinem Stuhlgang im Treppenhaus freien Lauf gelassen hatte und das Ganze erst an unserem Abreisetag entfernt wurde. Bei der Wohnungsübergabe hat das die Dame, die leider nur Spanisch sprach, sicherlich mitbekommen.
Lovely apartment, great location, close to Sagrada and nearby subway station.
Neatly trimmed, just strange that only sheets on the beds were made and no blankets, which was already cold in September.
Mooi appartement, leuke ligging, vlak bij Sagrada en vlakbij metrostation.
Keurig in orde, alleen vreemd dat er alleen maar lakens op de bedden lagen en geen dekens, wat toch al koud was in September.

Known for his offbeat choice of cinema, Rahul Bose has finally rehearsed dance steps for a song in a film. It was quite an experience for him.
"For the first time in my career, yesterday (Thursday) I rehearsed dance steps for a song in a film. Two choreographers have been hospitalised for shock. Another choreographer laughed so hard they had to call in the paramedics. #burst blood vessel #my first dance number," Rahul posted on Twitter Friday.
He felt his performance was good.
"At one point I thought I'd pulled off a pretty nifty move. The hall (with 40 dancers) suddenly went very quiet," he added.
Rahul has starred in films like "English, August", "Mr. and Mrs. Iyer", "Jhankaar Beats" and "Pyaar Ke Side Effects". He recently said that he was busy shooting in the RK Studios, where he had last shot 14 years back.

How do you have your kids homework and chores set up. What chores do they do? What sort of rules are set up?
I can't seem to get a good balance. We started the kids in public school this year and had them start doing chores this past summer. I don't know if I am expecting too much from them or what.
Each child has a chore (ODD tidy the bathroom, ODS clean playroom, MDD hall). They have homework 4 nights a week. ODD takes her sweet time doing her work and literally can take 2-3 hrs to do what is suppose to take 30-45 min. My rule is...you can't play outside until your HW and chores are done...and when the sun sets at 6pm, it makes it a little hard to play outside on a school night.
My dad thinks I am being too strict with making the kids have chores and having to keep their rooms clean (Saturday chore). I come from a family of 3 kids, so he doesn't understand the mess that comes with 6 kids.
Anyways, if you could enlighten me to the way you do things, hopefully I will get some ideas.

High voter turnout: who benefits?
Last night, Fox 9 news was predicting higher voter turnout here than in 2004, when Minnesota led the nation. Then, according to the television station, some 2.9 million Minnesotans voted; by Fox's numbers, some 3.1 million are already registered this year, not counting those voters who might take advantage of the state's same-day registration.
Early word is that the polling sites are busy, at least in Minneapolis. Some early reactions from posts on Minneapolis Issues, the e-forum:
Voting in Ward 7, precinct 3, Lowry Hill resident Tom Madden writes that he was number "53 at 7:25, 50 more in line behind me. I'm excited about the turnout."
Laura, from southeast Como, writes that in Ward 2, precinct 3, at 7:30 a.m. there was a "1/2 hour wait, line 50 deep. Constant inflow of more voters coming in the door. Left at 8:05 a.m."
And Nokomis East resident Jim Graves notes that in Ward 12, precinct 5, at 9:20 a.m., he was "#449 (!)" and in a "short line (I waited maybe two or three minutes), but lots of people--about as many were voting at folding tables as were at the privacy booths."
All of this would indicate that the races for state offices are especially tight, as is the case with the Pawlenty/Hatch showdown. It's counter-intuitive, but the turnout might help Pawlenty, if the Minneapolis pattern is being played out statewide. Though a Republican incumbent might benefit from low voter turnout, poll numbers have cast Pawlenty as the underdog in recent weeks.
Of course, voters in Minneapolis probably aren't turning out for Pawlenty in high numbers. But in recent days, since Hatch's "Whoregate" snafu and John Kerry's ill-fated stand-up career, Hatch is hurting.
No less an authority than former Republican governor Arne Carlson noted it last night on Fox 9, saying Hatch's campaign grade has gone from a solid A- to a B. More importantly, the conservative base seems mobilized in a way it wasn't just two weeks ago.

In May 1919 ground was broken for a $2 million project on five acres for a movie studio that could make 20 productions simultaneously with its own laboratories, carpenter shops and projection rooms. The Famous Players-Lasky Corp. was the brainstorm of Jesse L. Lasky (1880-1958). The company officially changed the name to Paramount Studios in 1927.
It was here that Lasky established the movie industry's first acting school. The Marx Brothers, W.C. Fields, Eddie Cantor, Clara Bow, Gloria Swanson, Lillian and Dorothy Gish are only a few of the many stars who made films on these stages. In 1927 Paramount moved most of its major productions to a larger West Coast studio.
Astoria Studios continued doing Paramount Newsreels, short features and unit rehearsal shows. The famous WPA play "One Third of a Nation" was turned into a movie here with Sylvia Sidney and Sidney Lumet as late as 1938.
In 1942, the studio was sold to the U.S. War Department as it was then called. From then until 1970, the Army Signal Corps made 300 training films a year there. Some notables who made films for the Army at Astoria were Stanley Kramer, Frank Capra, Charlton Heston, Lee Marvin and George Maharis. Maharis was born and raised in Astoria himself.
Declaring the studio surplus in 1970, the federal government deeded the property to The City University of New York. Originally in 1972 it restricted its use to educational purposes only. After making several WNET/13 television programs the stages went dark.
In 1976, the movie industry, the City of New York and the federal government reached new agreements to reactivate the stages for commercial purposes.

OU football: Could OU use both Blake Bell and Trevor Knight?
NORMAN — Realizing his team had an issue with red-zone and third-down offense, Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops and his staff devised a special set of plays to take advantage of their backup quarterback's unique skill set two years ago.
The result was incredible efficiency in short-yardage situations and important game experience for Blake Bell, who now displays calm and poise as the Sooners' starting quarterback.
When Bell was cramping up in the third quarter of Saturday's win at Notre Dame, speedy redshirt freshman Trevor Knight entered the game and immediately provided a spark, picking up 30 yards on an option keeper.
Having seen the change of pace Knight provided in relief duty, might coaches call Bell to the sideline on occasion this season and crank their offense up to the speed of Knight?
"Yeah, it's not a bad idea if you think about it," Stoops said during his Monday news conference. "Blake gets a few series off and is not cramping maybe early in the third quarter."
The Sooners (4-0 overall, 1-0 Big 12) host TCU at 6 p.m. Saturday in a game many expected Knight would start earlier this season.
Knight bested Bell in their preseason quarterback competition after wowing coaches with his impressive athleticism and playmaking ability. Knight showed flashes of that potential as the starter in Oklahoma's first two games, but struggled to consistently pass well enough to run the full Sooner offense.
Bell started the Sooners' 51-20 win over Tulsa two weeks ago and set a school record for passing yards in a first career start, then played well again in the Notre Dame victory, allowing the junior to take firm hold of the job.
A few days before naming Knight the starter, Stoops repeated a quote from comedy classic "Dumb and Dumber" when asked if he would consider playing two quarterbacks.
"Never say never and there's always a chance," Stoops said. "Even what's his name in Dumb and Dumber, he had a chance. It was one in a million, but he did have a chance."
The odds of Stoops using two quarterbacks seem better than one in a million, though, especially considering his recent history.
With Landry Jones — the most prolific passer in OU program history — on the roster, Stoops frequently dialed up plays from the "Belldozer" package, allowing Bell to enter games in short-yardage situations, take a shotgun snap and plow ahead for first downs and touchdowns.
Bell scored 24 touchdowns over two seasons as Jones' backup, and many of those scores came in huge moments, including the game-tying touchdowns in the fourth quarter of games against Notre Dame and Oklahoma State last season.
"I think being out there last year in some big situations — Notre Dame and Okie State and stuff like that — you feel a little bit of a presence back there," Bell said. "Obviously, I'm not dropping back and throwing last year. Still, being in those big-game situations, it helps out a little bit."
As recent history has shown, situational quarterbacking won't grant Knight any advantage in future position battles after Bell's eligibility expires.
Sophomore Kendal Thompson was part of the preseason quarterback derby before a foot injury derailed his chances. True freshman Cody Thomas is on campus redshirting, and Edmond Santa Fe's Justice Hansen is committed for the class of 2014.
But if Knight does regain the Sooners' starting quarterback job at some point, any game experience he gets between now and then should help to some degree.
"I think absolutely being in pressure situations, critical junctions in the game, absolutely helped him out," co-offensive coordinator Josh Heupel said of Bell after Saturday's game. "But still you don't know how it's going to be when you are the starter."

Nick Lachey has $1 million to give away on his new NBC singing competition series, "The Winner Is." That is, if you think you have the skills to take home all those bills…
The summer series follows singers every week who must decide if they are good enough to stay in the competition and go for the grand prize of $1 million dollars in the finale, or if they want to tag out early and go home with anywhere between $10,000 and $50,000. The show is getting some special airings behind "The Voice" (the second airs Monday [June 17]) before it officially kicks off on NBC on July 11.
"Well I think what attracted me to the show was basically that it was an interesting concept and not one that we've seen done before and kind of regurgitated [the] reality concept. It was the idea of combining kind of the excitement of a performance competition show with the strategy of a game show," Lachey told MTV News. "To me, it's like if you take the battle round of 'The Voice' and combine it with 'Deal Or No Deal.' If those two shows had a baby, the baby would be named 'The Winner Is.' "
Lachey, who previously hosted "The Sing-Off," knows that having money on the table really increases the stakes for the contestants. "Well you know when you look at it objectively, it's easy to say 'If I didn't feel like I did well, at least I want to leave with [$10,000] or [$25,000],' but as singers we all have pride," the 98 Degrees member explained. "We always think we killed our performance. It's hard to admit they lost. Of course someone's gonna lose… and more often or not they go home with nothing 'cause the pride won't allow them to admit they lost."
Anyone wanting to take a stab at all that dough should take Lachey's advice first. "Well obviously you have to perform well and these are people from everyday walks of life," he said. "They're all great singers. You also, if you can, you have to remove yourself emotionally from the moment and really be honest with yourself."
With the premiere of his new show, fans could say the summer of Nick Lachey has begun. Between "The Winner Is" and 98 Degrees' spot on the Package Tour (along with the New Kids on the Block and Boyz II Men), there's no escape from the singer/TV host — not that anyone wants one.
"It's been a great year. It's been a very busy year but a very satisfying year. Doing a new show on NBC, obviously, is a big thrill for me. Being a part of this tour with my old bandmates 98 Degrees and being out every night performing in arenas with screaming women, it's been a fun, fun summer," he said. "And more importantly on a personal level, just celebrating Father's Day and having a beautiful baby boy [Camden] that's a part of my life and doing a lullaby album [A Father's Lullaby] for him, it's just been a really satisfying professional and personal year."

Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.
