Is the new Green Economy so important that I have to spend more per year to drive my car than my car is worth?

11 Comments 

Question by My Guarami’s Smarter Than Obama: Is the new Green Economy so important that I have to spend more per year to drive my car than my car is worth?
I have an older Buick Century and an Acura MDX. It cost about $ 100 per week in gas for my Buick and over $ 150 for the Acura. That means that I spend more than $ 12000 in gas for the year at this price. Is Obama correct that this is necessary?

Sounds like you’re upset with your personal consumer choice and blaming it on the President.

Lamborghini LP570-4 Superleggera in Action – Ride Rev Accelerations Fly Bys

25 Comments 

I went for a ride in a friend’s brand new Lamborghini LP570-4 SL at the Monza racetrack. The exterior of the car comes in Bianco Moncerus while the interior is black all over alcantara and carbon fiber. Also, the exhaust is no more stock and it has been changed with the same one of the Lamborghini LP560-4 SuperTrofeo race car. Vid shows a couple of laps in Sport and in Corsa mode, a battle with an orange LP560-4, some flybys and revving scenes. Top speed in the vid around 290km/h in 6th gear.

Song Texas Was You off of his brand new album My Kinda Party! Definatley one of the best off of his new album! I do not own the song or picture. All copy rights go to the artist and producers. Ohio was a riverbank A ten speed layin’ in the weeds Cannonball off an old rope swing. Long, long summer days Tennessee was a guitar First big dream of mine If I made it, yeah that’d be just fine I just wanted to play, I just wanted to play but Chorus Texas, was green eyes, cryin’ goodbye Was a long drive, a heartache I’m Still trying to get through Texas was you Carolina was a black car A big white number three California was a yella jeep Cruisin’ down Big Sur, ha ha Georgia was a summer job And Bama was Spring Break I got memories all over the place But only one still hurts, only one still hurts like Repeat chorus Texas, was my whole life, waving goodbye Thought I’d die, a heartache I’m Still trying to get through. Texas was you It’ll always be you

Video Green Screen

What is a video green screen and how it can add more value to your video or image?

Green screen is a technique used in photography and film making to merge two entirely different images or frames. Green screen technology is also popular as chroma key, blue screen, color keying and color separation overlay. This technology has got huge popularity and usage after the evaluation of digital compositions.

Implementation of Green Screen technique involves in shot making and editing parts of film making. The basic process involves making a shot or image with our subject in the foreground and a huge green or blue screen in the background. Then taking another shot with the background we want and this time without our subject.

For example, if you want to make a film having a scene where a person (our subject) will be hit by a car. As it is practically difficult to make such a shot in reality, we will shoot the person “enacting like he was hit” with green screen or blue screen on background. Then we will shoot a car going on the road. So, basic principle is to merging two videos by replacing the green screen in the back ground of first video with the second video ( car on the road ). This process is called color keying.

So after making two different videos we can merge both of them with any popular editing software. It can be done in almost all editing or post-production software like Apple’s Final Cut Pro and Adobe’s After Effects.

The advantage of this technique is the you can choose what kind of back ground image or frame you want. Some times you can shoot both the shots individually and merge together (as I explained in the above example). And in some other cases you can merge a physically shot image or frame with a computer graphics generated image or frame. I will give you an example for the later case. If you want make a video involving a person in a bomb blast then, we can shoot the person with green screen on background and generate bomb blast with CGI and merge both of them.

Why Green or Blue? It is not a thumb rule that we cannot use any other color. But green or blue are preferred as these colors are in opposite hue to the human skin tone. Out of green and blue these days most of the film makers are going with green as the new generation digital cameras can capture green better than any other color.

Strawberry Wine – Deana Carter (Lyrics in description)

25 Comments 

All rights go to Deana Carter and her record company. I do not own anything. Lyrics: He was working through college on my grandpaw’s farm. I was thirsting for knowledge and he had a car. I was caught somewhere between a woman and a child. When one restless summer we found love growin’ wild. On the banks of the river on a well beaten path. It’s funny how those memories they last. Like strawberry wine and seventeen. The hot July moon saw everything. My first taste of love oh bittersweet. Green on the vine. Like strawberry wine. I still remember when thirty was old. And my biggest fear was September when he had to go. A few cards and letters and one long distance call. We drifted away like the leaves in the fall. But year after year I come back to this place. Just to remember the taste. Of strawberry wine and seventeen. The hot July moon saw everything. My first taste of love oh bittersweet. Green on the vine. Like strawberry wine. The fields have grown over now. Years since they’ve seen the plow. There’s nothing time hasn’t touched. Is it really him or the loss of my innocence. I’ve been missing so much. yeah Like strawberry wine and seventeen. The hot July moon saw everything. My first taste of love oh bittersweet. Green on the vine. Like strawberry wine. ohhh strawberry wine

If you’re driving behind a car that brakes through an intersection on a green light, does it make you nervous?

Question by cannonball: If you’re driving behind a car that brakes through an intersection on a green light, does it make you nervous?
One of the most common poor driving habits of Floridians. When I see a 90 year old senior citizen do this, I instantly want to park my car and walk. But I guess there is no guarantee that they wouldn’t drive up on the sidewalk and plow into me while I am walking either.

if it makes you nervous, you are probably following it to closely.

The Future Of Car Hires Is Green

The Future Of Car Hires Is Green

If you have plans of using car hire in Sydney, consider going the green route. The best option is to, of course, use the wonderful public transportation system comprised of buses and trains that will take you to pretty much every section in the city as well as some popular destinations outside of Sydney.

Several car companies have already begun making efforts to go green. Multinationals like Hertz and Avis are becoming environmentally aware and are buying fleets of electric cars that will eventually replace their existing fleets. These options may not yet be available in a car hire in Sydney but, in the meantime, consider acquiring rentals that get more mileage per gallon which will be much better for the environment, not to mention better for your pockets as well.

The future of rentals and automobiles could be changed in the coming years and you might be choosing a new Sydney car hire unlike any you’ve ever tried. New research from the University of Nevada shows that it is possible to obtain oil from old coffee grounds. The biofuel produced could be a cheap alternative and there is potential to produce many millions of gallons per year.

Dr. Manoranjan Misra, Director, Renewable Energy Center Professor, Materials Engineering Division, came across the concept by chance. When he returned to a cup of coffee that he had left out over night, he observed a thin layer of oil was present around the edges of the cup. Dr. Misra then did a few laboratory testings on coffee grounds and found that it contained around ten to fifteen percent oil. Afterwards, he turned the oil into biodiesel. Starbucks then furnished plenty of leftover coffee grounds to be employed for further analysis.

Findings show that coffee grounds turn into a more stable fuel than former attempts involving corn and soy. It is also greener having reduced co2 emissions. The biodiesel may be manufactured for more or less one dollar per gallon because the process is not exceptionally demanding. Apparently, even the fuel has smell of cofee. So possibly within a few years there’s a chance you will be driving around in a car hire in Sydney smelling like coffee.
