» Help with some special effects on sony vegas?

Well, I'm gona have an mtv project and I was hoping to make WHEN I'M GONE by simple plan.

» Finally stepping up to a DSLR....tips, advice needed

Hi all, first time posting here. A little background about me - Photography has always been a major source of interest for me and while I've been taking loads of pictures for a long time, I just recently started to really get into it. My first camera when I was a kid was a cheap Minolta P&S film camera (which I shot with until it literally fell apart on me), my next one after that was a very early model Sony Cybershot, and I just recently acquired an Olympus SP-560 UZ (another P&S, albeit bridge camera), which I purchased back in April of this year. I've never owned an SLR camera, but have been craving a digital one for quite awhile now. After spending an entire summer of being very disappointed with my new SP-560, I spent several...... - 2010-03-14

» Home Studio Kits - any advice?

Hi all, I was thinking of purchasing some form of a home studio kit as I'm really into starting portfolio/personal photoshoot photography. I currently own a Canon 300D and was wondering if anyone could give me any advice on what sort of kit to buy? I'm assuming these kits can be hooked up to the 300D in some way (not quite sure how)?? MikeWelcome to the forum. A lot of people seem to recommend Alien Bee lights & kits (for beginners anyway). They are inexpensive but perhaps lack the durability of more expensive lights. Check them out here (http://www.alienbees.com/) I don't remember for sure, but I don't think the 300D had a PC socket. That is the plug that is usually used to connect to studio lights. There is an adapter that y...... - 2010-03-14

» Bacteria growth in agar plates?

When bacteria grows in a petri dish or something, when bacteria reaches the edge, the growth appears to just stop. I want to conduct a experiment with the aim of finding out the "why" of this observation -- how can I do so? I am thinking that I can have a certain (any) bacterial strain in an agar plate in room temperature (that should be the optimal condition yes?). But I should detect the chemicals that are involved in their communications...Consider using the scientific method for solving your problem. The first step is a question regarding the problem ... you already have that. Then, you must have some sort of idea, a hypothesis (a possible cause or solution to the problem) as to why this occurs.

My 17in Flatron from LG,on switching on has a dull face & still duller edges [the time display on rh corner seems dull].With passage of time the clarity improves.

» Main functions of the House rules Committee?

The Committee on Rules, or (more commonly) Rules Committee, is a committee of the United States House of Representatives. Rather than being responsible for a specific area of policy, as most other committees are, it is in charge of determining under what rule other bills will come to the floor. As such, it is one of the most powerful committees, and often described as "an arm of the leadership" and as the "traffic cop" of Congress. A rule is a simple resolution of the House of Representatives, usually reported by the Committee on Rules, to permit the immediate consideration of a legislative measure, notwithstanding the usual order of business, and to prescribe conditions for its debate and amendment.

» France set to legalize P2P file sharing

A measure to legalize P2P file sharing has passed through France’s lower house amidst a storm of protest from the country’s film, music, and audiovisual industries. If the measure passes through the government’s upper house, France would become the first nation to legalize P2P file sharing during a time in which most Western nations are attempting to reduce its widespread use. Introduced as a pair of amendments to a bill aimed at toughening the country’s digital laws, the vote passed by 30-28 at around midnight Wednesday night, with a vast majority of the National Assembly’s 577 members absent. The amendments recommend that internet users pay an $8.50 a month royalty fee for unlimited P2P downloading for pr...... - 2010-03-14

» Computer hardware and software requirments for TV program Discovery HD Theater

Complex video production was used to create the intro segment used on the TV program Discovery HD Theater. This segment repeats itself about 6-8 times during each program and lasts about 15 seconds. It utilizes multiple video "boxes" that stream across, move, and interact with each other. The segment ends with the words Discovery HD Theater. Was this produced in house or by an outside post production company? Specifically what are the computer hardware and software used for this beautiful video segment ? I am interested in the video editing program used and which type system( pc or mac or other) was used as well as the system hardware requirements necessary to create this in HD. If done by an outside company I would appreciate...... - 2010-03-14

» Top 5 Albums That Define You! :)

Okay. This is a little different from Top 10 albums you love, or top 5 albums you'd take on a deserted island. If you could be defined by any 5 albums out there, what are they? What albums characterize you and can perhaps lead a little in knowing a person better? What five albums are, essentially, the soundtrack of your life? And why? I'd love to hear some responses, as sometimes our favorite albums are not particularly those that define us. For example, I cannot place, say, an "Appetite for Destruction" on my last as I am neither dangerous nor in the need of certain fixes. I am not addicted to "Mr. Brownstone" and when I first heard it, "Rocket Queen" was far beyond my comprehension. It can be lyrics, it can be sounds, mood, o...... - 2010-03-14

Time to forget the Derby debacle. However, things don't look too much better for this match since we will be missing Frei and Tinga because both saw their fifth yellow cards of the season against Schalke and we will be missing Nelson Valdez because he injured his knee against Schalke. Our strikers will probably be Smolarek, Amoah and Tyrala. If that's the case, that might be the shortest set of strikers the Bundesliga has ever seen...... :mad:yup... little off-topic - there's speculation that Ebi Smolarek might be leaving with BVM......HSV apparently would be welcoming BvM with open arms...any truth to this?Time to forget the Derby debacle.

» problem making a data call

ok. I'm using my cell phone, a Nokia 7160, with the Ositech KOH card. i've setup the software part ok, but when I try dialing, the first thing that happens on my phone is I get a "data call ended" message, and then a "no dial tone" message pops up on my laptop. So I took off both messages and tried again: same result. I was able to dial once, but not again. What's weird though, is that even after I unplug the cable, I keep getting the data call ended message popping up all the time, ending only when I turn off the phone. Any idea what's going on?

Hello, Is there a way for me to have the links generated by Zoom search results open files in their native application? e.g. an Acrobat file on cookie dough opens in a separate Acrobat window instead of embedded in the browser. Same for word, powerpoint and excel. Thanks! -MattAFAIK, this is not something that can be controlled by Zoom (or any web page) and it is up to the browser and application settings on the client computer. Acrobat has a setting in their Preferences window, under "Internet" and you can uncheck the "Display PDF in browser" box.

» Is it possible to press charge against Johovah's Witness for trespassing?

Those who comes knocking on your door? Happy Thanksgiving.Only if you had a "No Solicitors, or No Solicating" sign on your door. Otherwise, how else would they know they're not welcome? You have to have something posted. If they continue to knock when a sign is visibily posted, then you can try pressing charges.Sounds like you need some moral guidance given the language you resort to. Report Abuse No, you need to put up a no soliciting and no trespassing sign, then they will not stop at your residence.

"Free porn via an Internet Explorer Vulnerability? It sounds too good to be true, doesn't it? When was the last time anything good came out from a vulnerability affecting Microsoft's products? :D Well, joking aside, it does sound too good to be true.
