The document summarizes a workshop on creating compelling videos. The workshop covered various topics throughout the day including storytelling fundamentals, video editing software, and critiquing example videos. Key elements of a good story discussed included having a point of view, emotional content, concise messaging, pacing, and sound. Storyboarding was presented as a tool to plan out video sequences, emotional progression, and integrate different media types. Photography fundamentals like rule of thirds and lighting were also reviewed for capturing quality video footage.
1. The document describes how to set up an IPTV system using a Raspberry Pi device as the receiver. A PC is used as the server with TSReader Pro to receive broadcast signals and stream channels over the network.
2. Key steps include downloading the OpenELEC operating system onto an SD card for the Raspberry Pi, adding MPEG2 license keys, and configuring TSReader Pro on the server PC to demux channels and stream them individually over the network to be received by the Raspberry Pi.
3. The Raspberry Pi converts any TV into a networked media center using XBMC. Being small and inexpensive, it can be easily hidden behind a TV and controlled remotely with a wireless keyboard

活動的最高潮,要屬日本 teamLab 的 Masakazu Takasu 所帶來的分享。貌似一位中年大叔,頭上卻戴著前衛的「腦貓耳 necomimi」(一對經由腦波分析,進而改變動作的假貓耳)、胸前掛有閃耀七彩光芒的 LED 領帶,一上台便熱情地與台下的聽眾大聲問好,把下午的的瞌睡蟲都給趕走。原以為造型特殊的他會介紹許多怪異的穿戴式裝置,才發現他們製作了許多運用投影的大型互動藝術,十分厲害。有試圖引導兒童放下手機平版的「投影互動跳格子」,讓兒童既能玩到數位的聲光效果,也站起來讓身體運動一番。也有可將繪畫掃描、自動去背、加上動態效果投影到牆上且可立即互動的裝置;能看到自己剛畫完的魚馬上優游起來,這樣的體驗真是太不可思議了。
更令人驚嘆的是,位在南港經貿園區中國信託內的大型裝置藝術「生聲不息」同樣是由他們操刀,炫目的聲光效果令人陶醉在其中,難以自拔;而現正於米蘭盛大舉行的世界博覽會,於日本的展場內同樣有他們的蹤跡。影片中可以看到人們能自由穿梭在一片虛擬的池塘中,並與池裡的魚蝦互動;配合輕柔的音樂,令人心曠神怡。在這次的活動中,得到了許多關於科技與人性的揉合,這是最難能可貴卻也是最最重要的部分。在這兩天的活動過後,你是否也覺得收穫滿滿呢?看著一年比一年精彩的 Maker Faire,讓我們一起期待明年的活動趕快到來吧!
The document discusses proposals for colonizing the Moon. It notes that colonizing the Moon would cost $10-20 billion per year and pose many health risks to humans due to factors like low gravity, toxic lunar soil, and increased radiation exposure. While the Moon could be used as an observation point or fueling station, humans living there full-time would likely evolve into a new species. The document outlines past Apollo missions that landed astronauts on the Moon and a recent LCROSS mission that found ice on the Moon, before concluding that colonizing may cause harm and is an expensive endeavor.
Money saved when moving from a 5% to a 4.75% interest rateEric Kandell
This document outlines how refinancing a $250,000 VA loan from 5% to 4.75% can save between $75-200 per month in payments and build equity faster. Specific examples show that after 10 years the balance would be $6083 lower by refinancing. Refinancing can be done at no closing costs since the bank will provide a $4500 credit. Calling the provided number can provide a customized analysis of potential savings from refinancing a VA loan to a lower rate.
This document provides guidelines for daily care and maintenance of the CJV30 Series printer to ensure optimal performance. Key recommendations include cleaning the print head and surrounding areas daily to prevent dust and ink buildup, regularly wiping down the capping station, wiper, media press, and media/register sensors, and performing routine maintenance like head flushing if the printer will be idle for an extended period. Proper storage of media, cartridges, and supplies is also advised.
Wikipedia contributors are motivated by a desire to give back, make a difference, and share their passions. They include everyday people from all walks of life as well as experts in various fields. Contributors are driven more by intrinsic motivations like love of knowledge and a sense of purpose rather than financial incentives. Their work is seen as trustworthy due to this lack of monetary motivation. However, some stereotypes portray contributors negatively as socially isolated "nerds" obsessed with details.
The Experts' Group on the Use of Video-Link and Other Modern Technologies in the Taking of Evidence Abroad met from 2-4 December 2015. The Group discussed developing a guide to good practice and country profiles to address practical issues with using video-link technologies under the Evidence Convention. The Group recommended forming a sub-group to draft these documents and potentially soft law instruments like model rules, for approval by the Experts' Group and Council on General Affairs and Policy.
A team of doctors at Care Hospital Nagpur performed a rectus muscle transposition surgery to treat a recurrent abdominal wall desmoid tumor. They excised the tumor with a 5 cm margin, dissected the left rectus abdominis muscle, and transposed the muscle to reset the abdominal wall with an inlay mesh for support. The surgery was successful, with primary healing achieved within 2 weeks and a stable abdominal wall restoration.
Molti sportivi non sanno è che l’equilibrio acido-base è uno dei fattori più importanti per le prestazioni atletiche. Gli atleti nel macro-ciclo di fase di carico dell’allenamento sono duramente colpiti dall’acidosi tissutale, una condizione in cui il pH del corpo tende verso valori marcatamente acidi a causa dello stress dell’allenamento ma anche per via degli alimenti assunti per supportare la preparazione fisica.
Uno stato di acidosi diventa quindi causa e conseguenza delle ridotte capacità di recupero dell’atleta e non crea le condizioni per ottenere il massimo della forma fisica. Quando a questa situazione di over training (sovrallenamento) caratterizzata da un surplus di acido lattico, si combinano gli effetti acidificanti di alimenti ricchi di proteine animali (formaggi, carne e pesce etc) consumati dagli atleti con l’intento di ricostruire il muscolo si ottiene la tempesta perfetta di acidità.
The document discusses several key concepts in immunology:
1) Antigens are molecules that bind to antibodies or are presented by MHC molecules to T cells. Self antigens are tolerated while non-self antigens trigger an immune response.
2) Exogenous antigens enter the body from outside and are processed by antigen presenting cells and presented to T cells to activate the immune response.
3) Endogenous antigens are generated inside cells from infection or metabolism and are presented on MHC class I to activate cytotoxic CD8 T cells to destroy infected cells.
This document discusses using the SlideShare website to integrate ICT into science teaching and learning activities for secondary school students. SlideShare allows users to upload and share presentations. The teacher uploaded a powerpoint on stars and galaxies for students to explore. Students were then asked to prepare and present their own powerpoint on the sun to upload to SlideShare. They were also asked to answer questions the teacher posted on SlideShare while away from school. The goal is to use interactive computer activities on SlideShare to spark students' interests in learning science.
This document summarizes a student project analyzing interest in English Premier League football among UNIBridge students. It found that most respondents were female (62%) and more males (93%) than females (75%) reported being interested in football. The most popular club was Manchester United and the most favored players were Wayne Rooney and Fernando Torres. In conclusion, it was found that more male students were interested in football, Manchester United was the most popular club, and some gender bias was observed in team and player preferences.

Ultra high definition television (UHDTV) provides a significant increase in resolution compared to existing high definition television (HDTV) standards. UHDTV, also known as 4K, doubles the resolution of HDTV to 3840 x 2160 pixels, while 8K UHDTV quadruples the resolution to 7680 x 4320 pixels. In addition to higher resolution, UHDTV improves on HDTV by offering a wider color space for more natural colors, increased frame rates up to 120 frames per second for smoother 3D video, and expanded audio with up to 22 channels. However, UHDTV requires much greater bandwidth for transmission and faces challenges related to developing new equipment and transmission standards that
