Even fewer dig past the idea of 1-bit color of ppi, dpi, lpi and tonal depth of images. depth. We all know that 300 ppi scans are called "high-res" and 150 ppi scans are called "low-res". But what are the real world dif- HALFTONES: PPI, DPI, AND LPI ferences between them in your workflow?

Desktop scanners often incorrectly show image resolu- tion as dpi. WHAT DETERMINES BITMAP FILE SIZES?

Resolution of desktop printers and imagesetters is mea- one. The greater the number of pixels and color information, the sured in DPI (Figure 2). bigger the file size. To be precise, bitmap file sizes are affected by three factors: image dimensions, image resolution, and image col- or depth (also known as 'tonal' depth). We don't usually have a lot of flexibility in choosing image di- mensions or color depth, but we can certainly control file sizes by Bitmaps Also called: raster images, scans Figure 1 Resolution: dependent BITMAP 10 ppi resolution Resizing: affects quality File size: potentially large; size affected by resolution, dimensions and color depth (mode).

Default resolution on many 600 dpi laser printers is usually set even lower at 71 lpi.

We can also use the same eight bits to describe 256 different colors, as for Indexed color on the Internet or 8-bit EPS previews. To describe a full color RGB (red, green, blue) image with the best quality, we need three times the number of bits of informa- tion per pixel (eight bits red, eight bits green and eight bits blue), which produces 24-bit color (3 x 8 = 24). And since every eight bits can describe 256 tones of color, 24-bit RGB color mode really means that there are 16.7 million colors (256 x 256 x 256) in an RGB image. The full spectrum of light is much bigger than the 16.7 mil- lion colors in RGB but since the average eye can only see 10 mil- lion colors, this is more than enough for anyone (and, by the way, all of us don't see the same colors).

I'm just curious to see what made people decide to start brewing beer in the first place. Did you know someone who brewed? Did you drive past your LHBS one day and think, "I could do that!" Was it a Mr Beer Christmas present?
For me, believe it or not, it was quitting smoking. As you probably know, smoking numbs your sense of taste. After I quit smoking, BMC beers just weren't cutting it anymore; I needed more flavor. I tried some of the Michelob ambers, and they were okay... far from great. For a while I drank Guinness, but bottles and (*shudder*) cans were terrible compared to Guinness on tap. What I needed was a Kegerator, so I could get that same taste at home. I surfed around the internet for a while shopping for one, but at 500+ dollars, it just didn't seem worth it. A co-worker told me it would be cheaper to just build my own from a used fridge or freezer, so I thought I'd check it out. "Well, hey," I thought, "why stop with the keg? Why not make the contents as well?" I ordered the Mr Beer kit online, but quickly realized that 2.5 gallons of beer wasn't going to last long in my household. So here I am now, still completely new to the hobby, waiting for my tax return check to come in so I can order my real brewing kit, and get started for real.
Until then, I'll just have to lurk the forums and sample the joys of homebrewing vicariously through the seasoned vets here at HBT.
So, what made you start homebrewing?
It started in July 2006 when I decided to pick up a Mr Beer kit just for the heck of it. Living in Hawaii, the refills were non-existent unless you wanted to spend gazillions in shipping. Next batch was a small extract batch in the Mr. Beer Keg. By October of that year I found HBT, and had my 5 gallon kit at the end of November. Started AG in 2008, and spend way too much time thinking about beer, planning batches in my head, and looking for new commercial beers to try.
I do it for the process as much as the end result. It's fascinating that I can take a bunch of dried grains, add some water, yeast, etc.... and come out with a product that is just as good or better than what I buy.
Make Beer, Not War.
For me it was simple... I have a friend that has been brewing for years. I "Love" his brew and constantly bugged the crap out of him to make more. He got smart on me and started suggesting I make my own..... The stingy bastard...lol
So, I gave it a shot and find I love the tinkering, experimenting, brewing, etc... almost as much fun as kicking back drinking it. Now when my wife mentions my homebrew I tell her "Don't blame me.... It's Kelly's fault!".....
It was either this or philandery. I got bored with philandery so I started making beer as a hobby.
Honestly, it was because I was bored and my ex said I needed a hobby. My stepdad homebrews, so I had him take me to the LHBS to buy an equipment kit and supplies. After that I was insatiably hooked.
There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."
Sipping coffee one day at my desk. I said to myself, "I want to brew my own beer." Punched it into Google. Found this site. A week later I was unwrapping my equipment from Mid-West.
Here I am, barely two months into it. Three batches (plus one 1 gal of Apfelwein) later. Two of them All-Grain.
In college, I had to complete a strategic management class. One of the companies we had to analyze was a microbrewery. This required much research, so we visited quite a few local microbreweries and brewpubs. I learned that 1) brewing people were some of the coolest and nicest group of people to hang out with and get to know, 2) brewing was not as complicated as I initially thought, and 3) I LOVE hand crafted brews! I was hooked and knew I was going to homebrew for the rest of my life. I too am fascinated by the process and still love learning about brewing every single day.
Wifey got tired of hearing me tell her how much i missed English beer, so she bought me a Mr Beer kit thinking it was somehow similar. This fired me up to search out how to make what I actually liked. The rest is history
I just basically always had this idea since I was little that I wanted to learn to make alcohol someday. Probably started with the desire to make moonshine when I was little from watching Dukes of Hazzard or something like that. Anyway, I'm not completely sure where I got the idea that it was something that I wanted to do - I just like to make things, do it myself you know ?
So a couple years ago I was on some website and saw an ad for this kit ( Coopers Microbrewery Kit ) so I bookmarked the page and thought about it for a whlie and then one payday I broke down and ordered it. Well I couldn't wait for it to be delivered so I went out the same day and found my local homebrew store and bought a couple of buckets and a carboy and a couple of extract kits.
My first beer was great, I really liked it a lot. The second couple of beers I made I think got fermented a little hot so the alcohol in them seemed pretty strong, and I would have got discouraged but Evan and Yooperbrew sent me some good homebrews in the beer swap so I figured I could do it, I'd just need to figure a way to control the temperature and be more careful with the sanitation.
Now, I'm a little bored with brewing actually. What I mean is that I'm not all hot to try brewing new and different beers anymore, I have enough knowledge about how its done that I can keep my kegs filled up with what I like to drink.
These days its a lot more about the drinking and less about the brewing. Brewing I kind of view as a necessary chore, so I'm not as inclined to spend all day brewing an All Grain beer anymore. I still do an All Grain sometimes, but if I do I'm more than likely going to do an All Grain and a couple of extract batches all at the same time and get it over and done with for a while. Don't brew nearly as much as I used too, just enough to keep the kegs full.
I drink way too much beer to keep buying 6,12,18, and 24 packs as well as pitchers. So I did a little research on the internet made a little 100 dollar investment and I am now making 5 gallons of beer for 30 dollars or less if my buddies wanna pitch in. I love this hobby.

Most of the photos on this site were extracted from reference images (high-resolution tiffs, 20 to 200 megabytes in size) from the Library of Congress research archive. (To query the database click here.) Many were digitized by LOC contractors using a Sinar studio back. They are adjusted by your webmaster for contrast and color in Photoshop before being downsized and turned into the jpegs you see here.
Vintage photos of:
Aug. 16, 1954. "Stamford (Conn.) Housing Authority. Balcony A4. W.F.R. Ballard, architect." Six-shooter optional. Gottscho-Schleisner photo. View full size.
They definitely discouraged loitering and sitting on the railing.
I don't think that all the local teens appreciated that. None of those stiffed shirts' business if they wanted to sit on the rails on the umpteenth floor.
I actually had to do a double-take. The oldest of the boys looks JUST like my son when he was 8 or 9.
I had a Hopalong Cassidy watch in the fifties. My ears would ring for a week after using a hammer on a roll of caps. But it was great.
William F. R. Ballard, who died 20 years ago at the age of 88, did most of his architectural work in New York, and served as the chairman of the city's Planning Commission in the 1960's. His best-known project, early in his career, was the Queensbridge Houses development in Queens, which then and now was the largest housing project in the country. He was a major proponent of integrating motor vehicles into the urban transportation mix, an idea which has largely fallen out of favor today.
Miner54, the "Have Gun; Will Travel" two-gun set not only had two of those cap guns (maybe Fanner 50s?), but came with a dozen "Wire Paladin, San Francisco" business cards!
What boy didn't back then? It looked for all the world like a real gun, made of metal and everything. Not like the plastic things now days. If I dig deep I may still have it.
Then I learned that you could put a whole roll of caps on the sidewalk and hit it with Dad's sledge hammer.....
The serrated edge across the guard railing.
Keep birds roosting or keep residents from drying clothes there I wonder?
I was 4 years old in 1954(about the same age as the little guy)and had those exact pajamas. I just can't remember who the cowboy was. I'm thinking Hopalong Cassidy but I could be wrong. I don't understand why I can't remember, it was only 60 years ago.

This is a quite dense, moist banana bread that's almost puddingy with an added boost of chocolate bits throughout. Very ripe bananas are needed for their intensity. I usually ask if there are any out the back at fruit shops. Be careful when buying bananas for ripening at home - make sure they haven't been previously refrigerated otherwise the gases that cause ripening stop being released and they won't ripen any further.
Line a loaf tin with baking paper.
Preheat oven to 180C
Combine oil and sugars in a large bowl
Add eggs, banana, sour cream, vanilla and cinnamon and beat til combined.
Add flours and baking powder and salt and mix til just combined.
Fold through choc chips.
Pour into prepared tin and bake 1 hour
Over ripe bananas make a huge difference to the flavour
» Metric Converter
Fortified Wines, Dessert Wines and Sparkling Reds are the best wines to pair with Banana Bread with Chocolate Chunks.

Crystal Harris Talks Hugh Hefner Engagement, Ring, Weddingby Hilton Hater at . Comments
I hope it fits.
With these words, Hugh Hefner gifted Crystal Harris with a ring on New Year's Eve and watched as the 24-year old Playmate said yes through tears of joy.
The busty blonde tells E! News she and Hef had discussed marriage at length, so "nothing's changed" now that the engagement is official. As for that three-karat-plus rock? She helped pick it out.
Harris also says the wedding will be small and intimate (just "close friends and family"), will take place at the Mansion and probably be held in the summer.
Will the couple have children?
"I've never really been the wanting children type," she says. "I just have a bunch of different projects I'm working on and that's fun for me so that's what I'm going to do."Crystal adds that she and Hefner have the blessings of Bridget Marquardt, Kendra Wilkinson and Holly Madison. What about her family?
"Both my parents are super supportive of everything and whatever makes Hef and I happy makes them happy. I couldn't be happier."
Why is she posing with her great, great grandmother?
Congratulations to both..
Top ten reasons she cried upon receiving the ring 10. She had to finally come to terms that Prince William was off the market and was sadden that Hef was the next option 9. She cried tears of joy because she is in for a lifetime of shopping on Hef's tab, shopping is something she tweets about constantly 8. She realized marriage means she is off the dating market, hopefully no man older and richer shows interest. 7. She realized stuck with an old man who smells like pld people, hard boiled eggs and fried chicken 6. She realized she would have to pretend to enjoy viagra induced sex later that night. 5. She realized Hef is senile enough to ask her 4. She realized 84 means too old to get down on one knee 3. She was upset because it was not the larger diamond she had originally picked out with his secretary 2. Hef also gave her a pre-nup for Christmas 1. She realized that even though she got the ring from Hef, she will never be Holly
The dude needs some heavy duty mortician make up over his mortician make up.
Why does Crystal Harris look like a young Cristie Hefner, Hugh's daughter? Has Cristie Hefner noticed this?
There is a 60 year age difference and some people on here are saying that they truly LOVE each other? Oh, please, I think it is disgusting and when she turns 30 and he turns 90 (if he lives that long) she will be considered "old" in his eyes and he will dump her for another 20 year old Playmate. He has that type of reputation Oh, and she is NOT out for money or fame?! Yeah right! People PLEASE snap out of it and wake up & smell the coffee! Anyone who thinks that they are in love needs to stop drinking the Kool-Aid! And they call us mid-40's women Cougers!
its disgusting
Congrats to her parents! They must be so proud. Hef is a pedophile!!
Who are you to say this girl is after his money? She picked out the ring with him. They are both equally in this together. Love doesn't follow specific guidelines. If they are happy that's all that matters. Stop being negative and just let them be.
Happy Honeymoon! Now you can live another hundred years.

This posting is for the two FULL days in New York City.These were our first cloudy days of the trip with light mist/rain most of the first day. But the buses provided us with rain ponchos and we still sat in the upper deck outside on the bus and later on the cruise. Our mornings started with boarding a double- decker bus (Openloop-ny.com) at our …
New York Day 2, Yankee vs Blue Jays Game!
Tried to be up and in to a bit earlier today as we wanted to have plenty of time this arvo to chill out before getting to the game. We stopped again at Exchange Place to get breakfast before catching the Path back into the city. We first walked past the City Hall for a look but it was all blocked off as it was under construction. We carried on to the Brooklyn Bridge which you can walk right over above the cars. The day was beautiful with bright blue skies, so it was a great day ...

No I haven't.
And then BOOM, there it was. It was as though out of no where, it hit me. ...

We then caught another bus that took us through the upper West Side but couldn't get a seat on top so we had to sit downstairs inside. Quite disappointing as really could not tell what the tour guide was talking about in regards to specific locations and photographs through dirty windows. Up this end of town you will find the Lincoln Centre and New York Ballet and the Museum ...

A couple of days ago, I was lamenting to my friend Abbie Fink that Spin Sucks grew only 29 percent in 2012.
She rolled her eyes at me as I was finishing my statement. "Only 29 percent," she said.
OK, OK. I see her point, but we grew more than 1,000 percent in 2009, 292 percent in 2010, and 194 percent in 2011.
So you can see why I am a little stressed about it…and why Lindsay Bell spends time in every staff meeting brainstorming with us new ideas to increase blog traffic, sponsorship dollars, Google+ authority, and overall revenue.
Because we have it very top-of-mind, I've been spending a lot of time thinking about how to take the content side of our business to the next level.
The thing we struggle with, of course, is what we did to get us here no longer works. So now we have to be creative and innovative and a bunch of other "ive" words that work here.
Sure, there are some things that still work: Comment on other blogs, write for humans and optimize for robots, build community, write guest blog posts, speak at conferences, answer questions, go to networking events, leverage YouTube, and use traditional media.
But it turns out that's no longer enough.
So what do you do if the things you've always done no longer work, but the industry isn't talking about anything new?
Following is a list of 12 things we're going to try to increase blog traffic so we can exceed our other less ego-driven goals.
As we do, I'll report back on the pros and cons of each, how we tested, and what was the most successful.
Of course, we can't do all of this in the next six months, so we'll tackle one thing at a time and blog about the experience.
What else would you add?
I drew/wrote the image on an Admiral's Club napkin in the Austin airport.

The Juan Maclean: Everybody Get Close
DFA dance-punk don the Juan MacLean is taking a breather from side project Peach Melba and remix work for the likes of Yoko Ono to get back to his main gig. The Juan MacLean's new digital-only release Everybody Get Close will drop (via, you guessed it, DFA) on November 8.
It includes new and previously released recordings as well as remixes from Cut Copy, Holmes Price and Jee Day. UPDATE: This collection contains no new material. Above, listen to the album's title track; below, find the tracklist.
Juan Maclean Launches Side Project Peach Melba
By Tom Breihan on July 13, 2011 at 4:00 p.m. EDT
Classic strains of Chicago and Detroit dance music have always been big influences on the Juan MacLean, who has been releasing records for DFA for the better part of a decade now. But with his new project Peach Melba, Juan Maclean pays explicit homage to that ancestral electronic music. Working with singer Amy Douglas, Maclean is using his new project to build classic-sounding house music from scratch.
The Rapture Return to DFA for New Album
By Tom Breihan on May 23, 2011 at 11:40 a.m. EDT
UPDATE: We've now got the tracklist for the new album. It's below.
Now that everyone is done making jokes about the Biblical Rapture that didn't happen this past weekend, we can get back to thinking about the only Rapture that matters: the Brooklyn dance-punk crew who released the classic single "House of Jealous Lovers" and the thoroughly awesome album Echoes on James Murphy's DFA label nearly a decade ago. The Rapture and DFA parted ways soon after Echoes.
But now, the Rapture have announced on Facebook and Twitter that they will be back in the DFA fold for their new album, The Grace of Your Love. DFA will release the album on September 6 in the U.S. and September 5 in Europe. Modular will release the album in Australia and New Zealand.

Legendary Club & Global Music Brand Ties-up Exclusively with Dubai.
October 22, 2010 3:54 by Rasha Reslan
Pacha Group will present itself this fall to the Middle East and India with its infamous parties and its legendary music. Through its partnership with Viva Entertainment, Pacha´s music will be available now at Virgin Megastores´ duty frees and music stores. Also to celebrate, two special events will be held in Doha.
Viva Entertainment announces a tie-up with Pacha Recordings to bring Ibiza's unique sound to the Middle East. "We're thrilled to have Viva as a partner representing us in the Middle East and India," says Steve Glen Hulme, Label Manager at Pacha Recordings.
Five of Pacha's hottest compilations will be released simultaneously with Ibiza across Virgin Megastores, Duty Frees and music stores in the Middle East and in India – Pacha Ibiza Vip Vol. 4; Pacha Ibiza Club, Crucial & Crossover Vol. 2; Pacha Life; Pacha Global; Pacha International Vip Vol. 1.
Director of Viva Entertainment, Umesh Amarnani, states that "In keeping with Viva's objective of bringing the biggest and trendiest entertainment to the region, our alliance with Pacha sets a high standard." He adds, "We are very happy to be working alongside an internationally recognized club and music brand."
Now the "Cherries Brand" arrives to the Middle East and is here to stay.
Now residents of the United Arab Emirates and Qatar will be able to enjoy the incomparable nights and music from an authentic emblem for clubbing culture by the hand of Viva Entertainment.
As the exclusive licencee of Pacha Ibiza for the Middle East and India, Viva Entertainment will be organizing a series of parties to support Pacha's brand name and image.
The first will occur on October 29th, held in the incredible W Hotel in Doha, Qatar. Attending the event will be DJ Josef Bamba to release his latest album Club, Crucial & Crossover Vol. 2 party. On November 5th, Sebastian Gamboa and Dj Tuccillo will present the triple CD "Pacha Ibiza Vip Vol.4" at the Nasimi Beach in Dubai. The next Pacha Ibiza Party will welcome the New Year at Doha at the latest day of 2010 with Andy Baxter at the decks.
Pacha – the legendary club and global music brand – was born in 1967 with a club in Sitges and gained its great success with its club in Ibiza. Currently Pacha Group owns 20 nightclubs worldwide, including destinations in London, New York, Egypt, Morocco and Moscow, as well as incorporates other businesses such as the renowned record label – Pacha Recordings – and hotel real estates. But this is only the beginning of Pacha's international expansion.

iWallet: A Fingerprint Reading Money Holder With A Bluetooth Proximity Sensor
Putting aside the rather hokey promotional video created for the iWallet, the product looks like it will find its place in the pockets of the paranoid and those living in urban environments where pick pockets are never too far.
The iWallet comes in two version: carbon fiber or carbon fiber with Kevlar. This should make it not only durable and virtually indestructible, but incredibly uncomfortable to sit on. But that's a moot point, seeing as you shouldn't be sitting on your wallet any way. But what truly makes the iWallet unique is the biometric fingerprint reader. Once your finger print has been associated with the iWallet, only you can open the device by swiping your finger trip across the sensor. But wait there's more! The iWallet can also pair with your cell phone over Bluetooth. In the event that your iWallet is stolen or travels 10-15 feet beyond its proximity, your cell phone will emit an alarm.
The iWallet will begin shipping December 11th and will start at $299.

Do you want to know more about about online learning? The pages in the online and distance learning web site have been developed to help you find out what it is, the difficulties, the advantages, where you can find suitable programs, and more …
Online learning is becoming increasingly popular. It is such a convenient mode of study for many people, especially those who are working and do not wish to take time off work to attend campus for their studies.
In this web site, teachers can find out more about how ICT is changing classroom education, the social media tools that are facilitating so many of the changes, and obtain tips and resources for their own teaching.
Students can find out more about how you learn by online distance learning (e.g., in tips for learning online) and obtain help in finding a suitable distance learning online program or a school that offers the program you want, and more …
About online learning for students
Are you a student wanting to know more about what distance learning is all about? Or how new ICTs are changing classroom education? Or are you wanting to find out about online programs in a particular discipline, or about college admission, or financing for your studies, or free education? This section of the web site tries to help you find some answers.
What is online learning?
In these difficult financial times, there has been a massive increase in the number of learners wanting to know more about taking their studies at a distance using elearning (online learning) technologies. Not only is learning online usually more affordable, it is also more convenient for these distance education learners.
What is important to recognize is that anyone can register for online courses and earn their degrees. In this manner, they can study full time or part time, if they have other responsibilities. Many people have found that this is the best way to start a new career or complete certain credits they were lacking in their degree, while they maintain their current job.
But one of the good things about elearning is that it is not only used in distance education programs – it is also used for campus-based programs.
What is the difference between online learning and distance education?
Distance education has been a method of learning for individuals wanting to study at home for at least one hundred years, starting with correspondence learning (home study) via postal mail. With the greater use of computers and the Internet, it is now possible to offer distance education programs using only the online modality. In fact, distance education programs in the US and Canada use online learning so much, that for many people distance education is thought to be only about elearning.
But in reality, not all distance education programs are offered offered totally online. In fact, many distance education programs use a mix of modalities in that they also refer the learner to physical books. However, even these books are increasingly available online.
In many developing countries where the availability of computers and access to the Internet cannot be assumed, distance education very often still uses a mix of hard-copy study guides, books and attendance at weekend classes. There are many initiatives to try to change the problems of access to ICT, e.g., "One Laptop Per Child (OLPC)", so that those countries can also reap the benefits of using ICT in learning.
So why all the fuss about elearning?
New information and communication technology (ICT) has made online learning or elearning possible, in which learners can participate in interactive learning using audio and video-conferencing, email, chat and computer-conferencing. The distance learner can now have almost the same instructional contact and interaction as the student on campus. This is why distance learners want to know more about studying programs online.
But elearning is not just the province of distance education. It is also used in campus-based education. The on-campus student can now have another modality to use in addition to the lecture and tutorial. So on-campus students and teachers also need to know more about elearning. This Online and Distance Learning web site also has a section on campus schools and programs.
