    Remember some years ago, a copy protected CD from Sony was removed with a marker pen or a tape. This CD was a CD from Celine Dion. I found an old article about this at http://www.theregister.co.uk/2002/05/14/marker_pen s_sticky_tape_crack/

  5. Slashdotted on The Rise of Digg.com · · Score: 1

    Slashdot's slashdotting the slashdot killer. If you wanna be a serious competitor to Slashdot, try to have at least the same kind of server/bandwitch.

  6. Site with more than 20 infected titles on Bad Day To Be Sony · · Score: 2, Informative

    I don't know if this site is serious, but they claim to have a list with more than 20 infected title. Here the link : http://www.idiotabroad.com/2005/11/cds-affected-by -the-sony-bmg-spyware/

  7. Change second length on U.S. Scientists Call for a Time Change · · Score: 1

    Another method is to add 1/47347200th (i'm sure we can compute a better fraction) of second per seconds to make time always accurate. 1 second added every 18th month ... (548 days * 24 hours * 60 minutes * 60 secondes). Some will say : it will be hard to make accurate all clocks with this new standard. How many of our home clock are 100% accurate everytime. Power lost, power fail, power low down for a fraction of second... We don't need to life a the near second.

    Motion blur is another way to explain this effect.

    Motion blur
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_blur)

    Motion blur is the apparent streaking of rapidly moving objects in a still image or a sequence of images such as a movie or animation.

    When an image of moving objects or from a moving camera is created it does not always merely represent a single instant of time. Often because of technological constraints or artistic requirements the image must represent the scene over a period of time. As objects move in a scene over time an image of that scene must represent an integration of all positions of a camera's viewpoint and object positions over the period of exposure determined by the shutter speed. Any moving object with respect to the camera in such an image will look blurred or smeared along the direction of relative motion, this smearing may occur on an object that is moving or on a static background if the camera is moving. In a film or television image this looks natural because the human eye behaves in much the same way.

    Because the effect is caused by the relative motion of the camera, object and scene being imaged, the camera may be used to track moving objects by panning the camera such that even with long exposure times motion blur is avoided on the moving object but instead appears on the background.

    In televised sports, where conventional cameras expose pictures 25 or 30 times per second, motion blur can be inconvenient because it obscures the exact position of a projectile or athlete in slow motion. For this reason special cameras are often used which eliminate motion blurring by taking rapid exposures on the order of 1/1000 of a second, and then transmitting them over the course of the next 1/25 or 1/30 of a second. Although this gives sharper slow motion replays it can look strange at normal speed because the eye expects to see motion blurring and does not.

    Similarly, in real-time computer animation each frame shows a perfect instance in time (analogous to a camera with an infinitely fast shutter), with zero motion blur. This is why a video game with a frame rate of 25-30 frames per second will seem 'jumpy' and strange, while natural motion filmed at the same frame rate appears continuous. To compensate for this, much higher frame rates are desirable, of 60 frame/s or more. In pre-rendered computer animation, such as CGI movies, simply raising the frame rate is not possible, but realistic motion blur can be drawn because the renderer has much longer to draw each frame. Temporal anti-aliasing produces frames as a composite of many instants.

    Sometimes, motion blur can be removed from images with the help of deconvolution.
