Create Music Videos with Annotations using iMovie | Pinoy Appler A simple video I created for sinhbalotravel.com using iMovie.

Anyway, for those who want to venture into this new hobby, here’s a step by step process on how to create a simple music video with annotations using iMovie. Things I used iPhone – to record a HD video Macbook Pro + i Movie – to edit and finalize the video Importing the video First you need to import the video you recorded.

To edit the properties of the text, double click it on the timeline. Adding a watermark photo Add a signature or watermark image to prevent losers from copying and claiming your video.

Random Wikipedia subject discovery Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a potentially life-threatening complication in people with diabetes mellitus. It happens predominantly in those with type 1 diabetes, but it can occur in those with type 2 diabetes under certain circumstances. DKA results from a shortage of insulin; in response the body switches to burning fatty acids and producing acidic ketone bodies that cause most of the symptoms and complications.[1] DKA may be the first symptom of previously undiagnosed diabetes, but it may also occur in people known to have diabetes as a result of a variety of causes, such as intercurrent illness or poor compliance with insulin therapy. Vomiting, dehydration, deep gasping breathing, confusion and occasionally coma are typical symptoms. DKA is diagnosed with blood and urine tests; it is distinguished from other, rarer forms of ketoacidosis by the presence of high blood sugar levels. DKA is a medical emergency, and without treatment it can lead to death. Signs and symptoms[edit]
The Official Mobile App for Moodle is OUT NOW | Moodle News | moodle2 Lion’s QuickTime Player: Screen Recording Improvements and New Sharing Features One of the built-in apps that received several interesting improvements in OS X Lion is QuickTime Player, Apple’s default video and music player based on the QuickTime framework that’s capable of handling a variety of audio, video, and picture codecs. Seemingly unchanged from version 10 of QuickTime Player that shipped with Mac OS X Snow Leopard, the new QuickTime Player 10.1 contains a number of changes under the hood, new sharing features, as well as screen recording enhancements built specifically for OS X Lion. Lion’s QuickTime Player supposedly comes with the same set of codecs from the previous version, but Apple has introduced a new “Export audio only” feature that allows users to produce an AAC track compatible with the iPod, iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Mac and PC to listen to audio files on the go or upload to the web. The new QuickTime Player comes with two new features that will undoubtedly improve the workflows of users that produce screencasts and video tutorials on OS X.
How to Get in Touch With Loved Ones During a Disaster | Gadget Lab Photo: Alex Washburn/Wired Disasters often strike without warning–and if you have family or friends who are in or near harm’s way, you’re going to want to get in touch. Unfortunately, that isn’t always so easy: Cell signals and land lines can be jammed with the massive amount of calls flowing in and out of an area. Here are some of the best tips we know for getting in touch, but this is by no means a complete list. Don’t call. Additional tips: Use a battery case for your smartphone–that thing can’t make it through a whole day when it’s not constantly scanning for a signal. Also, be sure to keep your emergency contact list up to date. Again, please share your tips in the comments below.
Review: Course Menu Block for Moodle 2.0 Course Menu Todays review Module is an old favourite that has been updated to Moodle 2 – Moodle 2.0 Course Menu Block which is available for both Moodle 1.9 and Moodle 2.0 Background This block has been around for nearly 4 years, and worked on Moodle 1.6 onwards providing an in-course navigation block and was one block I strongly recommended for Moodle 1.9 to help manage that old bugbear the “scrollofdeath”. It is submitted by Alex Contis and maintained by NetSapiensis AB Moodle Partner. What does it do? The block gives the users easy access to jump to sections of the course without having to scroll around in addition to some extra links providing the user a quick way to navigate around their Moodle. In 1.9 in automatically grabbed the topic summary and used it as the name of the topic link, and in Moodle 2 it takes the name of the topic summary which is a good improvement. Is it simple to install? You need to upload the course_menu folder to your blocks folder in your Moodle site.
