Introducing our new character – the Professor. We’ll come up with a name later, unless you have ideas for him. The last installment in this miniseries will give you a good feel for his personality.

   I actually GET this one! Gave me a chuckle—-looks like you might be heading towards the Dilbert of the Lab world…? Like the addition of the professor—I’ll be interested to see what he/she gets named:)

   Like the graphics—the pile of papers falling off the desk a nice touch.

   I’m glad there’s only a 90% similarity between me and the Professor, otherwise I might get paranoid! Hopefully the miniseries ends well…

   Hehe! I’m with Momsie, I actually get this one!

   This happened to my classmate in college, twice in one day :D The first time, he freaked out. The second time around, he was so used to it that he just patted on his own head to put the fire off, as if it was nothing to him :) Needless to say, he doesn’t do research anymore :)

   Very clever way to sneak in your punch line, first of all…

   As I am entirely uneducated on scientific processes/terms, I just learned: Retrophoresis means running a gel backwards and electrophoresis is the motion of dispersed particles.

   You are impressive!

Video making can be a glorious process, but it can also be the most frustrating thing you will do. The footage looks great on the computer, it brings tears to your eyes even after the 200th time of watching through the same 5 second clip. You go to burn it to a DVD, watch it and wonder what happened to your amazing footage. It brings you to tears all over again, but these tears are usually accompanied by pulling out massive chunks of hair. I can sympathize. It’s been almost a week and I’m still trying to get rid of compression artifacts on slow moving footage.

Let me try and make it easier on you and give you the necessary settings. I’ve captured footage from the Panasonic DVX100A into Final Cut Pro 6.

• Sequence Settings: DV-NTSC, Interlaced, 16:9
• Export: Using Compressor (Settings: Apple, DVD: Best Quality 90 minutes which will give you 2-pass, automatic 16:9 aspect ratio as an MPEG-2 file and accompanying audio)
• Let Compressor do its thing and then import files into DVD Studio Pro
• Build your menu
• Burn Away

Do not, and I repeat, do not use the Animation sequence setting in Final Cut Pro if you’re using standard video footage. You may thing you’re getting better quality, but regardless of anything you may think, it’s not worth the headache of dealing with highly uncompressed footage. Using the Animation codec will cause any changes to require rendering and it also bogs down Final Cut. Your text will look great on DVD if you use the previously mentioned workflow. In addition, when you run out a DVD to see how it looks, also test it on a few different DVD player/TV systems. We just discovered out TV is rather outdated in its ability to handle 24P slow-motion footage since it is an interlaced machine (one fix – only reduce speed by 80% when shooting and editing in 25P). It looks like we may have to upgrade the TV. Any excuse to get a new TV, right?

• Export: Using Compressor (Settings: Apple, DVD: Best Quality 90 minutes which will give you 2-pass, automatic 16:9 aspect ratio as an MPEG-2 file and accompanying audio)
• Let Compressor do its thing and then import files into DVD Studio Pro
• Build your menu
• Burn Away

Do not, and I repeat, do not use the Animation sequence setting in Final Cut Pro if you’re using standard video footage. You may thing you’re getting better quality, but regardless of anything you may think, it’s not worth the headache of dealing with highly uncompressed footage. Using the Animation codec will cause any changes to require rendering and it also bogs down Final Cut. Your text will look great on DVD if you use the previously mentioned workflow. In addition, when you run out a DVD to see how it looks, also test it on a few different DVD player/TV systems. We just discovered out TV is rather outdated in its ability to handle 24P slow-motion footage (easy fix – don’t shoot in 24P if intended for slow motion use, try 60P or get a RedOne or Scarlet when it comes out). It looks like we may have to upgrade the TV. Any excuse to get a new TV, right?

Video making can be a glorious process, but it can also be the most frustrating thing you will do. The footage looks great on the computer, it brings tears to your eyes even after the 200th time of watching through the same 5 second clip. You go to burn it to a DVD, watch it and wonder what happened to your amazing footage. It brings you to tears all over again, but these tears are usually accompanied by pulling out massive chunks of hair. I can sympathize. It’s been almost a week and I’m still trying to get rid of compression artifacts on slow moving footage.

It looks like we may have to upgrade the TV. Any excuse to get a new TV, right?

Video making can be a glorious process, but it can also be the most frustrating thing you will do. The footage looks great on the computer, it brings tears to your eyes even after the 200th time of watching through the same 5 second clip. You go to burn it to a DVD, watch it and wonder what happened to your amazing footage. It brings you to tears all over again, but these tears are usually accompanied by pulling out massive chunks of hair. I can sympathize. It’s been almost a week and I’m still trying to get rid of compression artifacts on slow moving footage.

Let me try and make it easier on you and give you the necessary settings. I’ve captured footage from the Panasonic DVX100 into Final Cut Pro 6.

• Sequence Settings: DV-NTSC, Interlaced, 16:9
• Export: Using Compressor (Settings: Apple, DVD: Best Quality 90 minutes which will give you 2-pass, automatic 16:9 aspect ratio as an MPEG-2 file and accompanying audio)
• Let Compressor do its thing and then import files into DVD Studio Pro
• Build your menu
• Burn Away

Do not, and I repeat, do not use the Animation sequence setting in Final Cut Pro if you’re using standard video footage. You may thing you’re getting better quality, but regardless of anything you may think, it’s not worth the headache of dealing with highly uncompressed footage. Using the Animation codec will cause any changes to require rendering and it also bogs down Final Cut. Your text will look great on DVD if you use the previously mentioned workflow. In addition, when you run out a DVD to see how it looks, also test it on a few different DVD player/TV systems.

• Export: Using Compressor (Settings: Apple, DVD: Best Quality 90 minutes which will give you 2-pass, automatic 16:9 aspect ratio as an MPEG-2 file and accompanying audio)

Do not, and I repeat, do not use the Animation sequence setting in Final Cut Pro if you’re using standard video footage. You may thing you’re getting better quality, but regardless of anything you may think, it’s not worth the headache of dealing with highly uncompressed footage. Using the Animation codec will cause any changes to require rendering and it also bogs down Final Cut. Your text will look great on DVD if you use the previously mentioned workflow. In addition, when you run out a DVD to see how it looks, also test it on a few different DVD player/TV systems. We just discovered out TV is rather outdated in its ability to handle 24P slow-motion footage (easy fix – don’t shoot in 24P if intended for slow motion use, try 60P or get a RedOne or Scarlet when it comes out). It looks like we may have to upgrade the TV. Any excuse to get a new TV, right?

Video making can be a glorious process, but it can also be the most frustrating thing you will do. The footage looks great on the computer, it brings tears to your eyes even after the 200th time of watching through the same 5 second clip. You go to burn it to a DVD, watch it and wonder what happened to your amazing footage. It brings you to tears all over again, but these tears are usually accompanied by pulling out massive chunks of hair. I can sympathize. It’s been almost a week and I’m still trying to get rid of compression artifacts on slow moving footage.

   Most excellent. My entire lab had a good laugh about this one!

   great graphics. Don’t ever recall using pipette like this one from my long gone by days in chemistry. I do have a bicycle shifter that seemed to destruct with very similar characteristics, however.

   This could apply outside the lab too. Reminds me of an uncle who was known as “Larry the lunger.” His talent was stripping lug nuts on tires. Knowing when to stop is critical in all kinds of situations!

   Thanks everyone for the comments! We’ve had fun putting these together and there will be plenty more in the future. Great fun hearing that these types of things don’t only happen in the science field.

Virgin Atlantic Airways has made available their “Flying Without Fear” course to all iPhone users. For only $4.99, you too can have peace of mind during take-off, flight, and landing. This app leads you through audio and visual explanations, frequently asked questions, relaxation exercises and even has a panic button should you completely flip-out while flying. The app can personally be fitted to your needs as you fly and for preparation for future flights.

The “Flying Without Fear” program is reported to have a 98% success rate, however there may be a minor issue the app developers did not take into consideration when designing for the iPhone. Recall the time as the plane takes off that the stewardess asks you to turn off all electronic devices until the plane reaches a certain altitude. You’re sitting there with your finger hovering over the “fear attack” button to get yourself through the take-off only to be told to turn off your phone. Huh?! The plane is leaving the solid ground and bulleting upward into the vast blue, leaving you without psychiatric assistance! It makes me break out in a small, cold sweat just thinking about it.

I’d also like to make a point to those writing the description for the app store. When you mention “What’s New in This Version”, please don’t use the first phrase, “Minor crashes fixed”. I know you’re referring to the crashing of the app, but think of your audience. We don’t want to be thinking about anything crashing at the moment. Thank you.

   very comically written, especially from one who knows both sides of the issue:)

   I think I need to get an iPhone so you can try this out =).

   Thought this was very funny and well written, Leigh. Brought back vivid memories of Josh and Sarah’s wedding return trip. Psalm 30.2 is a connection that’s never dropped or crashes. :-)

After discovering that my music staple, Pandora, is cutting me off at 40 hours allotted time per month (see bulletin here), I’ve been on the search for a comparable replacement. The call went out on Facebook and people did not disappoint. Here are the two main services I tried:
Last.fm and Grooveshark.

Here is what I was looking for that Pandora so generously offered (except the listening time restriction):

1) The ability to create a play list of various artists based on the similarities between a decided artist (i.e. listening to the Duke Spirit radio on Pandora gave me an endless supply of similar artists like the Raveonettes, Heartless Bastards, The Dead Weather etc.).
2) The loving ability to show my distaste in unworthy songs or artists that would play on the given station (the ever-so-popular “thumbs down” on Pandora).
3) A very easy interface with which to locate various artists and/or songs.

And the winner is…..Last.fm!

It meets all the requirements for a suitable Pandora replacement, plus it has so much additional information like the ability to see similar artists without even necessarily listening to the station. There are also pictures of the artists! It’s like going back to reading kids books all over again. I may be persuaded to make a permanent switch, however I have noticed that the artist selection per station varies between Last.fm and Pandora. Not good or bad, just different. Something to keep in mind. Their algorithms may vary in how songs are picked for each station.

Grooveshark is not completely to be discounted though for me. It is a great resource to easily listen to unending songs from a single artist. I ended up listening to the Shins nonstop last night. It seems time consuming to create a station with automatically chosen artists based on similarity, but perhaps I’m missing something. You can inform me if that’s the case. Now back to listening to St. Vincent on Last.fm.

After discovering that my music staple, Pandora, is cutting me off at 40 hours allotted time per month (see bulletin here), I’ve been on the search for a comparable replacement. The call went out on Facebook and people did not disappoint. Here are the two main services I tried:
Last.fm and Grooveshark.

Here is what I was looking for that Pandora so generously offered (except the listening time restriction):

1) The ability to create a play list of various artists based on the similarities between a decided artist (i.e. listening to the Duke Spirit radio on Pandora gave me an endless supply of similar artists like the Raveonettes, Heartless Bastards, The Dead Weather etc.).
2) The loving ability to show my distaste in unworthy songs or artists that would play on the given station (the ever-so-popular “thumbs down” on Pandora).
3) A very easy interface with which to locate various artists and/or songs.

And the winner is…..Last.fm!

It meets all the requirements for a suitable Pandora replacement, plus it has so much additional information as well. The ability to see similar artists without even necessarily listening to the station. There are also pictures of the artists! It’s like going back to reading kids books all over again. I may be persuaded to make a permanent switch, however I have noticed that the artist selection per station varies between Last and Pandora. Not good or bad, just different. Something to keep in mind. Their similarity algorithms may be slightly different in picking songs for each station.

Grooveshark is not completely to be discounted though for me. It is a great resource to easily listen to unending songs of an individual artist. I ended up listening to the Shins nonstop last night. It seems time consuming to create a station with automatically chosen artists based on similarity, but perhaps I’m missing something. You can inform me if that’s the case. Now back to listening to St. Vincent on Last.fm.
