Technology Is Not Driving Us Apart After All In September 2008, two graduate students working for Keith Hampton, a professor at Rutgers, raised a camera atop a 16-foot tripod to film down into Bryant Park, the sprawling green space behind the main branch of the New York Public Library. They hit record, then milled about nearby pretending they had nothing to do with the rig, as it semi-surreptitiously filmed the comings and goings of hundreds of New Yorkers. The charade didn’t last. After an hour, Lauren Sessions Goulet, the more senior of the pair, found herself talking to the park’s private security force, which sent her to see their bosses, the Bryant Park Corporation. Across the street and up 11 floors, in the corporation’s Fifth Avenue office near the park, Goulet explained what Hampton had sent her there to do.

Piracetam Piracetam (sold under many brand names) is a medication in the racetams group, with chemical name 2-oxo-1-pyrrolidine acetamide. It is approved in the United Kingdom[2] but is not approved in the United States.[3][4] In the UK, piracetam is prescribed mainly for myoclonus,[5] but is used off-label for other conditions. Evidence to support its use for many conditions is unclear, although it is marketed as a nootropic (cognitive enhancer). Studies of piracetam's cognitive effects have had equivocal results, sometimes showing modest benefits in specific populations and sometimes showing minimal or no benefit.[6] It shares the same 2-oxo-pyrrolidone base structure with pyroglutamic acid. Medical uses[edit] Dementia[edit] Depression and anxiety[edit] Some sources suggest that piracetam's overall effect on lowering depression and anxiety is higher than on improving memory.[12] However, depression is reported to be an occasional adverse effect of piracetam.[13] Other[edit] Anti-vasospasm[edit]

Jonathan Grubbs » How to Get Pro Quicktime Codecs without Final Cut Like a ton of pro editors out there, I’ve pretty much given up on Final Cut for editing. I still use it occasionally when I cut in a post house that still uses it, or if I have to dig out an old project to make updates. I’ve made the switch to Adobe Premiere Pro, and use AVID when I can on longer projects. My muscle memory is still geared to Final Cut, and I’ll admit I’m still way faster at organizing and cutting on Final Cut 7 than I have been yet on Adobe. Rather than learning the new keystrokes I’ve just mapped keys to be as close to my Final Cut editing strokes as I can. I have a MacPro tower and keep Final Cut 7 on that for when I need it, but I’m setting up a new MacBook Pro for my mobile editing work, and I’ve decided just to install the Adobe Suite on it and skip Final Cut altogether. How do you skip the FCP install but get the codecs? Simple!
The Tao of Crowdfunding: Three Ps for a Successful Indie Film Campaign | Hat & Soul UPDATED: 2/18/13 –– Same three Ps. Even more recent examples! Long before I worked at Indiegogo, I was given the opportunity to step in for the company’s co-founder Slava Rubin for a presentation on crowdfunding sponsored by New York Women In Film and Television (NYWIFT). If a Buddhist, a Confucianist, and a Taoist each tried to crowdfund, which would be successful? Although crowdfunding has been around for years now, it’s still the big buzz word amongst the indie community. That said, there are three aspects of crowdfunding that should be thoroughly sketched out before your campaign goes live: pitch, perks, and promotion, or what I call my Three Ps of Crowdfunding.) Pitch: Because First Impressions are Everything Your pitch is the single most important part of your campaign because it’s the one and only chance you have to sell yourself and not necessarily your project. A mistake that many crowdfunders make is not appearing in their pitch video. But Brendon didn’t stop there. Like this:
Promote Control - an advanced remote control for Canon and Nikon digital SLR cameras A Detailed Explanation of How Photoshop Blend Modes Work - Photoshop Blend Modes Explained | Photo Blog Stop Working with blend modes is almost always an experimental process. Because it’s nearly impossible to predict the results, you always seem to end up experimenting with different modes and Fill Opacities until you get the results you’re looking for. In this article I’m going to give you a high-level view of what the various blend modes do, and then I’ll dig deeper into the nuts and bolts of the blend modes by explaining some of the math involved, and their interrelationships with each other. I’m not going to “show” you how the blend modes work—I’m going to “explain” how they work. By the time you finish reading this article, you should have a better idea of how to use blend modes and where to begin your “experimentation,” which in turn should reduce the time it takes to achieve the results you’re looking for. How Blend Modes Work Blend Mode Groups While the blend mode names don’t make all that much sense, Adobe did group the blend modes into logical groups. Keyboard Shortcuts Blend Mode Math
