Especially for Final Cut Pro, I know there are other programs but this one I really liked.
I remember running that program and learning how to use it in a High School program many years ago. But when I got out of the class I found out it was only an Apple exclusive program, not even made for Windows.
Actually if you get enough tickets at least here in California they can suspend your license, therefore denied the use of the roads unless you count public transportation.
Quote was from a field and artillery magazine and they even state that the white phosphorous is used to flush them out and later they use HE(High Explosives) to destroy the enemy. I heard they throw the babies up in the air and bayonet them as they come down. Great bloggers...
"This line however crumbled when bloggers (whose influence must not be under-estimated these days) ferreted out an article published by the US Army's Field Artillery Magazine in its issue of March/April this year.
The article, written by a captain, a first lieutenant and a sergeant, was a review of the attack on Falluja in November 2004 and in particular of the use of indirect fire, mainly mortars.
It makes quite clear that WP was used as a weapon not just as illumination or camouflage.
"WP proved to be an effective and versatile munition. We used it for screening missions at two breeches and, later in the fight, as a potent psychological weapon against the insurgents in trench lines and spider holes where we could not get effects on them with HE [High Explosive]. We fired "shake and bake" missions at the insurgents, using WP to flush them out and HE to take them out," the article said.
In another passage the authors noted that they could have used other smoke munitions and "saved our WP for lethal missions".
A word about the term "shake and bake." Anyone with a family to feed in the US knows what this term, properly "Shake 'n Bake, means. Made by Kraft, it is a seasoning which is put into a plastic bag with chicken and shaken before before baking. Its use gives the article the smack of reality. It's the kind of thing US soldiers would say. "
I wasn't trying to be the boogeyman but simply stating facts and showing evidence. It is not terrorist I worry about but Pedro who got all drunk and turned down the wrong track or granny who's GPS told her to turn down the track(that actually happened). Plan might have been feasible maybe back in the 80's to lay but now days eminent domain will not work as well around here.
Search up 'Los Angeles railroad crossing crashes'; I am sure there are plenty of incidences as I am used to seeing them in the news all the time with the local Blue/Red line.
Also a Pacific Union worker lives right down the street from me and we chat it up at the local sports bar about train crashes he has had to report to, fucking gnarly shit that will make your stomach turn.
Yeah but what is to stop any vehicle from getting onto the tracks and the train being derailed by it.
This is the problem in California where you have people purposely going around the warning lights and arms at the train crossing, that or driving onto the track or other problems relating to derailing. You cannot exactly have a train derail in Southern California and especially with a high speed train, that is why they have speed limits with Amtrak at least from the 15+ years ago since I last rode a train along P.C.H. (Pacific Coast Highway).
Case in point in Los Angeles was where a mentally disturbed guy drove his car onto the tracks to commit suicide but chickened out at the last minute, leaving his car on the track a Amtrak train hit it derailing it and killing some people. Same thing with the OCTA(Orange County Transportation Authority) where they setup those natural gas bus routes that have this private lane setup over old train tracks so they can go from one area to another area without stopping at a red light. The buses basically have crossing arms that come down at intersections to stop traffic but people still go around them and you have buses slamming into the sides of these idiots.
You would have to barrier off certain parts or make it almost go in a tunnel in some parts, that or just basically handicapp the system by having it go a speed limit until it gets out of the heavily commuted zones.
Simple physics when you have a object that large traveling that fast you have little room for error, how some of these high speed train projects survived with being exposed to the outside elements and being vulnerable to sabotage so easily is a little scary to me.
I work some Civil Engineering and just the costs of this project is guaranteed to go over project, add to that the budget crisis in California and this project is going to need way more government money.
Well if the T.V. ads were posted between two characters in a show talking to each other 'while the show was live', than you have a valid point. In fact I seem to remember during the show '24' on Fox they would briefly flash ads at the bottom of the screen.
I dunno, bust out the post it notes and start putting them over the T.V. screen on the ads while the show is going. Most annoying flash ever is the one where you highlight over some text and it brings up a box that does not go away for a little while, annoying. I guess it comes down to priorities in life and avoiding ads is not one of my priorities that causes me mental stress issues, I just turn it off and go on with my life. Solution....
Well by than like any technology the discs will be about $0.10 a disc like it.
Personally I cannot wait to go to Fry's and buy a 50 pack of Blu-Ray discs for $15, but hard drives will be so cheap by than that it might be pointless as I could carry a drive around almost. I will need like 1 disc with all my MP3's on it to play in my car.
HD-DVD could never match BR anyways even when they both come out with more layers, I don't know what some were thinking when rooting for that.
Actually there are some researchers in California working on a way to prevent or at least minimize the earthquakes damage.
Basically it is done by injecting a mud or some type of lubricant deep into the ground to allow areas that are under a lot of stress to relieve the pressure slowly instead of the big burst they have where plates slip with eachother. To do this though it would have to be on a lot larger scale spread out so we will not have big earthquakes but little a little 5.0, well little to us Californians.
Excuse my non-scientific terms but I saw a video of them doing it awhile ago and some testing, just recalling off of memory so maybe somebody can follow up.
I have worked some general contracting in my life and it really does not surprise me that there was so much damage over there with the lax rules on construction and building safety, although it is improving it is just the way it is when they are trying to advance the living conditions of their people but cutting some corners to save money. You could say hey if the Chinese had built a properly and well structured High School than those poor 900 kids would not be trapped underneath the collapsed roof, standards are not as high in China though.
Ummmm wouldn't it be more like 'In 5 years when TiVo is out of business, the owners will all be sipping margaritas in Costa Rica living off all the money they made and say how we could bring this upon ourselves again.'
On Linux and OSX? I will not even respond to that because of obvious reasons but I will put my own story in.
I played Steam perfectly on my home Windows desktop and than when I was going to watch the college games at my buddies place I thought I would back-up Call of Duty 4 to a DVD with Steams backup option. Sure enough I installed steam on his computer, put in the 2 backup DVDs and installed within 10 minutes. The game ended and a buddy of mine saw that I was playing it, he was interested so I gave him my steam ID and password so he could go home install steam and redownload it there to play because by than the DVD disc had a big scratch already from some drunk buddies. I long the days when people predicted Steam would be a big failure, all the threads on how bad Steam was on WON for CS and all the DRM fear mongers around here claimed it the devils mark. Well the WON system is gone for CS and now everybody uses Steam perfectly fine with their library growing in size almost daily. Some of you Atari fans should be happy they imported a big collection of those games.
Ummm an EM pulse is your strongest argument? Wah, wah, wah....
Well than we just send in a flight of 10 unmanned UAV's loaded with hellfires and airdrop a squad of 20 battle bots to seek out the EMP device; which was easily detected by the Air Forces satellites in the area or radar. EMP can't go off all day long and we have reinforcements. All of this is ready to launch from the base or on the carrier hundreds of miles away, hell they already might have a manned/un-manned B-52 loaded with all those things in it ready to airdrop within seconds of the EMP going off. There will still be human soldiers to don't be so naive; it is just the future Marine might have his own MECH battlebot he sits in and is protected from up to a 200lb bomb blast.
Would love to see the face of a terrorist who just saw his buddy blow himself up next to a robot, only to see it get up and start walking toward him the next target.
Or maybe it might be they have the biggest collection of software assembled to only run on Windows and that they have been having a working desktop OS before Linux did. Showing up late to the desktop game doesn't guarantee you the first spot in line; have patience and don't be ignorant that everybody is not a power user.
But hey turning a blind eye to all the success and cherry picking where your favorites programs are can be very bitter and selfish.
Now I have better things to do now, I will just turn off my screen and my life goes on unaffected as usual. Priorities in life brotha is what it comes down to.
After those huge storms up north that sent that massive swell all down the coast of California; I find it unlikely he is alive. Still don't give up though and good luck as I have seen his sail boat docked in Catalina harbor before while cruising to shore.
Sailing must be much more dangerous up north with all the massive ships and quick storms that kick up.
Well when you have an agenda against Sony and want to throw some FUD up, there is nothing like throwing a question mark at the end of your title.
As far as I am concerned I don't think Sony did enough to market the Bluray during the war against HD-DVD; they should have thrown loads of money to get them to switch instead of dicking around. Sony wanted Microsoft's HDi as part of the BD spec but were outvoted by the rest of the BDA, who chose Java. Stupid MS decided to start developing HD-DVD as Blu-Ray was already being developed and the rest is history.
Since the article is pretty much speculation lets get some real facts rolling, although I am sure that there are a thousand posts below me which re chant the same thing every Sony/BluRay thread.
1. DVD recordables were just as expensive in the beginning. And guess what? Prices fell. BD media started out at around $20, and now it's below $10. 2. It's been posted elsewhere (Google the links yourself, learn to do research and not listen to the FUD) that Sony does not lose money on PS3 production anymore, and Toshiba was bleeding millions on their firesales. 3. BD is THREE regions. DVD is SEVEN. Same, eh? Not to mention that it's OPTIONAL, unlike DVD (example Warner BD discs are region free, Sony & Disney discs catalog titles are as well).
Everything that people claim HD-DVD is good for, Blu-ray can eventually do. If they had wanted to, they could've made it region free, and implement whatever software layer HD-DVD had, and you have a great format. The fact that the goal could be achieved with either format, makes the whole war unnecessary. HD-DVD was unnecessary, simply because Blu-ray was already there. The companies behind HD-DVD should've pushed for Blu-ray to include all those features they wanted, and avoid the war. But HD-DVD was 'juicier' choice for them.
Toshiba and Microsoft have hurt HD media adoption in catastrophic proportions. IMO, Blu-ray was the most future proof, but meh, their half-assed efforts at promoting the format, only prolonged the war and screwed many consumers. And all the FUD being spread now about how upconverting is just fine, it's making me sick.
Time-Warner Cable is not throttling bandwidth. This has been discussed to death in the DSLreports.com forums; just go into it and look for the biggest thread at the top. There were some lines/routers down and everyone got worked up from the fear mongers that they were throttling when people couldn't connect to Itunes. Service returned and everything went back to normal; there were lots of apologies for making silly comments about it though. Something like it wasn't routing right to the Itunes service; I cannot believe that you actually believed they would go after Itunes of all the services. If anything you might have been paying attention to that Texas city/neighborhood where they were testing some of the bandwidth metering; overall though TWC has been very good to its customers and are one of the only ones to keep their newsgrouop servers going. We newsgroupies get a laugh at all the fools still downloading off bittorrent, if only all ISPs could put all the Warez material on one big local server for the neighborhood to access.
If anything Time-Warner is very good at not throttling user speeds and basically allowing me to download several hundred GB and upload so far up to 40GB(my music collection) without any notices sent to me. This has been over the last 5 years where I have downloaded/uploaded intensely with newsgroups and a little bit of torrenting. I don't live in some little hick town either but live out in Southern California where there is major bandwidth usage. Additionally cable companies are slowly but surely completing that last mile with fiber up to the curb.
Cable companies are broken down into almost regions and they will all act differently sometimes. I work in the construction industry and I have seen many bid submittals in the last 5 years for laying down fiber lines from Time-Warner Cable at the City Hall for Los Angeles and Orange County. It is a low but sure process as FIOS has already demonstrated; it is not that quick and easy to deploy fiber nation wide.
