Now your photos look better than ever — even those dusty old prints Photos from the past, meet scanner from the future Google Photos is a home for all your photos and videos, but what about those old prints that are some of your most treasured memories? Such as photos of grandma when she was young, your childhood pet, and that hairstyle you wish you could forget. We all have those old albums and boxes of photos, but we don’t take the time to digitize them because it’s just too hard to get it right. We don’t want to mail away our original copy, buying a scanner is costly and time consuming, and if you try to take a photo of a photo, you end up with crooked edges and glare. We knew there had to be a better way, so we’re introducing PhotoScan, a brand new, standalone app from Google Photos that easily scans just about any photo, free, from anywhere. PhotoScan gets you great looking digital copies in seconds - it detects edges, straightens the image, rotates it to the correct orientation, and removes glare. Pro edits, no pro needed

BBC Taster - RemArc Get Organized: How to Manage Video Files Shooting video is more convenient and accessible than most of us could have dreamed even a few years ago, making it tempting to clutter up your computer and smartphone with clips of family vacations, videos of your dog eating bugs (guilty as charged), and other slices of life. You should want to keep them all and edit them into short films that you'll want to share or just re-watch yourself. That's what they're for!

The dying process: What to expect when someone is close to death - Health - ABC News Hollywood has a lot to answer for when it comes to our ideas of what death looks like. The majority of deaths on screen are violent, bloody, traumatic affairs, with few realistic portrayals of what a death from illness or so-called "natural causes" actually looks like. Little wonder we have such a fear of death, and especially of being in the presence of it. It's still a terrifying notion, because most of us have no idea what we will see. My own curiosity about death led me to write a book on the topic. In bringing together medical research and personal stories from those who've undergone near-death experiences, I learned a lot. The expected There are some fairly common things that happen when someone is approaching death. They will often eat less and less, and — as things get closer — even stop drinking fluids. They will also sleep more and more, and in many cases start to slip in and out of consciousness. Breathing rhythms It can also sound like there is congestion in the dying person's lungs.

How to Die - The Atlantic Updated on September 22, 2017 One morning in May, the existential psychotherapist Irvin Yalom was recuperating in a sunny room on the first floor of a Palo Alto convalescent hospital. He was dressed in white pants and a green sweater, not a hospital gown, and was quick to point out that he is not normally confined to a medical facility. “I don’t want [this article] to scare my patients,” he said, laughing. Issues of The Times Literary Supplement and The New York Times Book Review sat on the bed, alongside an iPad. “I haven’t been overwhelmed by fear,” he said of his unfolding health scare. The hope that our existential fears can be diminished inspires people around the world to email Yalom daily. As I scrolled through the emails, Yalom used his cane to tap a button that alerted the nurses’ station. Many of Yalom’s fan letters are searing meditations on death. Becoming Myself is clearly the memoir of a psychiatrist.
A New Guide for Archiving Digital Video The human rights organization, witness.org, — who gave a presentation at Digital Preservation 2013 — just published The Activists’ Guide to Archiving Video. Though this guide is intended for human rights activists, it covers all aspects of digital video archiving so thoroughly that it is of value to anyone and everyone, from individuals archiving their personal videos to organizations developing digital video archives. Witness’s staff of professional archivists and video technologists structured the guide in a sequential workflow under the headings Create, Transfer, Acquire, Organize, Store, Catalog, Preserve and Share. From the start, the video-creation process itself, the guide explains metadata, emphasizes its importance and details what metadata to capture, how to capture it (by either embedding it into the video file or describing it on camera visually and verbally) and how to display it. Preserve gets to the heart of digital preservation: ensuring long-term accessibility.

Thomas Keneally: death is not the fly in the cosmic ointment. It is the cosmic ointment | Books When I was 16, I was given a wonderful anthology, Poetry of the English-Speaking World, as an English prize. I recommend it to this day, since I have returned to it often between 1952 and now. And early in it occurs a poem which brought me up short then, at demented 16, and speaks still, at a somewhat differently demented 81. When I say “demented” I do not yet mean the aphasia which has disassembled the splendid cerebral mechanisms of some of my contemporaries. But let the poem speak! Our pleasance here is all vain glory,This fals world is but transitory,The flesh is bruckle, the Feynd is slee;Timor mortis conturbat me. “The fear of death perturbs me” is a lame translation of this last sentence. “Now more than ever seems it rich to die,” he claimed. “To cease upon the midnight with no pain.” The closest to easeful I have seen was that of my clever young brother, Dr John Keneally, dying of cancer and treated with excellent palliative care in a Sydney hospital. Life is strong in people.
