Thanks to the rise of streaming platforms and other on-demand content, not many people turn to Blu-ray discs for entertainment. On the whole, I'm very pleased with Mac Blu-ray Player Pro 3.In the past years, dedicated Blu-ray players have become a thing of nostalgia. I also wish that it would remember my audio track selection for each disc (e.g. I wish that Mac Blu-ray Player Pro would remember when I've already watched a disc and skip the first-play warnings and disclaimers and instead go straight to the top menu. (The UI is so simple, extensive documentation may not be needed, but I'd like some explanation of the many audio options.) The English on Macgo's web site is appalling. (I did once encounter a glitch with a special feature submenu that wouldn't disappear, but I couldn't reproduce the glitch.) The user interface in this Pro version is elegantly simple, a considerable improvement over the UI of the standard version of Mac Blu-ray Player.ĭocumentation is lacking for the Pro version. While I can't report on how well the extensive support for pass-through digital audio works, I can say that the Dolby Atmos audio tracks sound fabulous over my Sennheiser headphones.īlu-ray menus work very well, with special features and multiple TV episodes per disc all easily accessible. The picture quality is superb on the built-in display of my iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2015). I just finished watching all six seasons of Game of Thrones on Blu-ray Disc (the sixth season of which was released just two months ago) via Mac Blu-ray Player Pro 3, with almost no problems. The menus required keys for navigation, but i suspect navigation by mouse may not be a capability shared by all Blu-rays. But just last month I used version 3.1.9 to watch Firefly (the complete series) and Serenity on Blu-ray, and everything looked and sounded magnificent and functioned well. Macgo Blu-ray Player Pro has also been updated 17 times since then. Since then, I’ve bought only a very few more Blu-rays, so it’s not like I’ve conducted extensive or thorough testing yet. And the freezes were a thing of the past. I tried this one with Possession.Īnd hallelujah! The menus were now navigable by mouse. And since the Pro version promised various feature improvements and bug fixes, I chose to go for it. Some time not long after that, the Macgo folks offered me an inexpensive upgrade path to their Pro version for being a recent customer. ![]() (Possession turned out to be a more-than-worthwhile purchase, btw.) MakeMKV, however, successfully ripped the movie onto a spare hard drive, and I was able to watch it from there using VLC without incident. I worried about the possibility that this could be the result of a damaged disc. It was reproducible, the lockups always occurring at exactly the same points. (More accurately, the option was plainly there in the menus it just didn’t work.) The second, and much more serious, flaw: the movie froze in two scenes. The first flaw: I couldn’t find a way to turn off the English subtitles, even though I was listening to the original English mono soundtrack. The film looked positively gorgeous, but there were a couple of flaws. It was Possession (Andrzej Zulawski, 1981), and Mondo Vision had just released it on Blu-ray. ![]() I decided to spring for a movie that I’d been intrigued by for years but which I’d never acquired because I’d never managed to find a DVD edition that (1) I could be confident was uncut and (2) didn’t cost an arm and a leg. The menus weren’t usable by mouse (not a deal breaker, since the arrow keys and return key worked just fine for menu navigation), and there was that “unregistered version” warning plastered over the screen but it worked well enough as a proof of concept that I bought and registered the application. I started with version 2.16.10, using Hellsing Ultimate Volumes IX-X as my guinea pig. This piqued my curiosity, and since my mini is connected to an external optical disc burner that can handle Blu-rays as well as DVDs (I never bought it for Blu-rays I was just trying to future-proof myself a bit) and I have a 1080p display, I looked into Blu-ray player applications and decided to give Macgo Blu-ray Player a shot. DVDs, digital media files of various types, and (more recently) streaming have been enough for me.Ī few of my more recent DVD purchases, however, have come in the form of dual DVD/Blu-ray editions. Despite the fact that my Mac mini (not to mention a series of Mac models in the years preceding that) is my primary entertainment device, I’m a johnny-come-lately when it comes to Blu-rays.

A 30-day trial of Nik Collection 3 by DxO is available. I really like the way the software helps you applying these corrections the easy way. After using Viewpoint 3 for a while, I won’t switch back to manual corrections in Photoshop soon. The collection retails for $149, and upgrades are $79. Viewpoint 2 was on my computer for a short period of time, but I switched back to correcting everything in Photoshop again. The new Perspective Efex module is one of the eight plug-ins in Nik Collection 3. Other sections of Perspective Efex correct horizontal and vertical lines, tilting buildings, and even flatten full-frame fisheye images. The unique ability of this plug-in to correct a common issue quickly makes it worthy of a closer look. Volume deformation is only one subpanel of the new Perspective Efex tab in Nik Collection 3. Even when the diagonal adjustment provides the better correction, you may decide the horizontal/vertical adjustment looks better overall if curving is too noticeable. This is most obvious when there are strong horizontal lines in the image, but it’s also visible in the repeating patterns that can be found on floors. With diagonal adjustments, the image is not only cropped, but lines become curved. In this case the diagonal adjustment worked better (right). With some images it is difficult to decide whether a horizontal/vertical or diagonal adjustment is more appropriate (left). These are most useful to reduce some of the correction if the original image becomes too cropped to show all of the relevant content. Two sliders are provided for fine tuning the correction both horizontally and vertically. When you select it, the image is processed with a default horizontal correction based on EXIF information in the digital image file. It’s located to the left in the Volume deformation subpanel. If heads or objects near the edge of the frame appear stretched or flattened, then first try the horizontal/vertical icon. HOW TO TAME DEFORMATIONĪpply the volume deformation correction by selecting Perspective Efex in the Nik Selective Tool 2 toolbar in Photoshop or by selecting Photo > Perspective Efex > Edit in Lightroom.ĭepending on how the image is deformed, Perspective Efex provides two methods of correction: horizontal/vertical and diagonal. With the release of the Nik Collection 3 plug-in from DxO, you can now correct volume deformation in Adobe Photoshop, Photoshop Lightroom, Photoshop Elements, and DxO PhotoLab.įor this tutorial, I used Perspective Efex in Photoshop and Lightroom on Windows and iOS systems. Previously this effect could be corrected only with the use of ViewPoint from DxO Labs. Volume deformation arises because a three-dimensional object cannot be exactly mapped onto a two-dimensional plane, such as an image sensor. These abberations exist even after applying lens corrections in editing software because they’re not the result of optical lens distortions but due to an effect called anamorphosis or, more commonly, volume deformation. This is especially apparent when a lack of space forces you to use a wide-angle lens for a group photo or wedding party. The starting frame of the cropping function sometimes cuts off those gained pixels which can be valuable.If you’re using lenses 24mm or wider, you’ve likely noticed unnatural effects at the edges of your images. On wide-angle photos, PhotoLab recovers much more lateral information than other software and direct JPEGs (especially for photos taken with cameras applying digital corrections). – Hold down the SHIFT key (Windows and Mac) to modify the frame while preserving these new proportions ![]() When carrying out new operations on the frame of this image, it is no longer necessary to press the key.

Some gags are lame - when someone says 'this panel is so hot you could fry eggs on it', we next see just that!

Many gags are recycled the hysterical woman being slapped by a long line of people, the 'what is it?' exchanges, MacCroskey ( Lloyd Bridges ) leaning on his desk and mimicking the pose on the picture behind him, someone throwing away a cigarette and causing an explosion etc. I would imagine that the people who found this really funny in 1982 were those who never saw the first. The original's freshness was bound to be lost - and was. ![]() But who can bring the craft down? Guess who? The problem is that 'Airplane!' did not need a sequel. Luckily a passenger ( Sonny Bono ) had the foresight to bring along a bomb in a briefcase. A faulty computer sends the craft hurtling towards the Sun. After the events of the original film, Ted Stryker ( Robert Hays ) became a moon pilot, but got incarcerated in a lunatic asylum ( named after Ronald Reagan ) following a major screw-up, while the love of his life, the beautiful Elaine ( Julie Hagerty ) is stewardess aboard the maiden commercial space shuttle flight to the Moon. He retained most of the original's characters ( except for Leslie Nielsen's 'Dr.Rumack' ). Ken Finkleman, writer of 'Grease 2', served in the dual capacity of writer and director. But when it finally appeared two years later, it was called 'Airplane 2: The Sequel' and neither Abrahams nor Jerry and David Zucker had anything to do with it. Interviewed at the time, Jim Abrahams said a sequel was in the offing, to be provisionally entitled 'The 747 Strikes Back'. This wild spoof of '70's disaster movies did not, as some believe, kill the genre ( it had burned itself out well before then ), but certainly made a fitting headstone. 'Airplane!', the funniest film Mel Brooks never made, came out in 1980, and became one of the year's biggest hits. Rating : Average but entertaining and funny. Expectations were so high that the next film was promised at the end of the credits of this one, when the film was released to mediocre box office, plans for Airplane III was doomed. ![]() This film was created with the obligation that its creative team return for a third installment. The picture will appeal to wacky and absurd comedy fans. There're gags each twenty seconds, from start to finish, humor and laughters are interminable. The film is an ¨Airport¨ spoof, the parody is hilarious, surrealist, extreme and gross-out but is also clever and bald. As always, the cinematic references are numerous : ¨2001, space odyssey ¨ with a computer type ¨Hal¨, ¨Star Trek¨ with the intervention of William Shatner, ¨Mission impossible¨ with the acting by Peter Graves and the musical theme composed by Lalo Schifrin, ¨ET¨ with the likable creature made by Carlo Rambaldi doing a home phone call, ¨Star Wars¨ that since introducing titles the mentions are continued and, of course, ¨ Airport I ¨¨ which the allusions are sometimes copied. Hilarious as well as silly spoof is loaded with nutty situations, irony, slapdash, slapstick, comedy with tongue-in-cheek, bad taste jokes, rapid flash thrilling choreography, funny situations and with a distinctly American sense of humor. The film refers about the first journey headed to the moon by means of the space shuttle ¨The Mayflower I ¨. Someone roles repeat their craziness, thus, Julie Haggerty as the hostess, Robert Hays who's at the beginning in the ¨Ronald Reagan psychiatric hospital¨, Peter Graves with his children' desires and the nutty air controller Lloyd Bridges.

Until then, check out the teaser trailer! Horizon Call of the Mountain has been proudly developed with the team at Firesprite, and we’ll soon be revealing more about what you can expect from the game. We’re looking forward to welcoming VR fans into our wonderful Horizon community, and giving you all an unforgettable experience. You will also meet Aloy, other familiar faces, and new characters along the way, and we’ll be introducing you to the protagonist of Horizon Call of the Mountain soon.

Everything in that world has incredible color and all of it is amazing to look at. Horizon is one of the most gorgeous-looking series of games out there. The real question though is how much of this game is going to be focused on pushing the series forward and how much of it will feel like a tech demo for the new headset. We’ll surely get some new characters as well as some returning ones making this a great experience for fans of the series. The teaser didn’t give us too much to go on, but it shows us that this new game plans to let us see the world of Horizon Zero Dawn and Horizon Forbidden West in a new light. Even more exciting is we don’t have to spend too much time imagining what that technology is going to look like in action.Īlongside the announcement of the PlayStation VR 2 we also got a teaser for a game that will be coming to the system, Horizon Call of the Mountain. Now that PlayStation has announced the PlayStation VR 2 we can start getting excited about all the possibilities of what VR could look like on new hardware. Spores are usually produced in large numbers to increase the chance of a spore surviving. Seeds, therefore, are more resistant to harsh conditions and require less energy to start mitosis. However, the terms are somewhat interchangeable when referring to gametes.Ī chief difference between spores and seeds as dispersal units is that spores have very little stored food resources compared with seeds, and thus require more favorable conditions in order to successfully germinate. ![]() In common parlance, the difference between "spore" and " gamete" (both together called gonites) is that a spore will germinate and develop into a sporeling, while a gamete needs to combine with another gamete before developing further. Statismospore are not actively discharged from the fungal fruit body, similarly to a puffball. Ballistospore are actively discharged from the body of a fungal fruit (such as a mushroom). Autospore cannot move and cannot develop flagella. Aplanospore cannot move, but may potentially grow flagella. Zoospore can move by means of one or more flagella, and can be found in some algae and fungi. Spores can be differentiated by whether they can move or not. Mitosporic fungi are also known as anamophic fungi (compare teleomorph or deuteromycetes). An example is the parent of gametophytes of the higher vascular plants ( angiosperms and gymnosperms)-the microspores (give rise to pollen) and megaspores (or macrospores) (give rise to ovules) found in flowers and cones these plants accomplish dispersal by means of seeds.Ī mitospore ( conidium, conidiospore) is an asexually produced propagule, the result of mitosis. Meiospores are the product of meiosis (the critical cytogenetic stage of sexual reproduction), meaning that they are haploid, and give rise to a haploid daughter cell(s) or a haploid individual. Since fungi are often classified according to their spore-producing structures, these spores are often characteristic of a particular taxon of the fungi, such as Ascomycota or Basidiomycota. In fungi and fungus-like organisms, spores are often classified by the structure in which meiosis and spore production takes place, such as a telium, ascus, basidium, or oogonium, which produce teliospore, ascospores, basidiospores, and oospores, respectively. In fungi, chlamydospores are thick-walled resting spores, and zygospores are thick-walled resting spores (hypno zygotes) of zygomycetous fungi which are produced by sexual gametocystogamy and can give rise to a conidiophore ("zygosporangium") with asexual conidiospores. Spores can be classified in several ways.ĭiaspores are dispersal units of fungi, mosses, ferns, fern allies, and some other plants. The term derives from the ancient Greek word σπορα, meaning seed. ![]() Fungi that produce spores are known as sporogenous, and those that do not are asporogenous. The term can also be loosely applied to some animal resting stages. The term spore may also refer to the dormant stage of some bacteria or archaea however these are more correctly known as endospores and are not truly spores in the sense discussed in this article. By contrast, gametes are the units of sexual reproduction as two gametes need to fuse to create a new organism. Spores are the units of asexual reproduction as a single spore develops into a new organism. Haploid spores produced by mitosis (known as mitospores) are used by many fungi for asexual reproduction. This cycle is known as alternation of generations, but a better term is "biological life cycle", as there may be more than one phase and so it cannot be an alternation. Two gametes fuse to create a new sporophyte. Once conditions are favorable, the spore can develop into a new organism using mitotic division, producing a multicellular gametophyte, which eventually go on to produce gametes. Spores are usually haploid and unicellular and are produced by meiosis in the sporophyte. Spores form part of the life cycles of many plants, algae, fungi and some protozoans. In biology, a spore is a reproductive structure that is adapted for dispersion and surviving for extended periods of time in unfavorable conditions.

The number he did I need to numb my veins. Now that my buzz is buzzin’ my caboose is loose. Smokin’ like a Chattanooga bound choo-choo. Instead of wasting tears, I’m getting wasted, I’ll take whatever it takes to stay medicated. I’m gonna pop a few pills see if the liquor can chase it. I’m gonna stay medicated, so I don’t feel my heart breaking. Just a matter of time and I’ll be feeling no pain. A little RX bottle right here with my name. I’ve got too much pride and a hundred proof. Goodbye is my favorite word.ĭon’t think I’m gonna sit around and cry about you. It’s the one that keeps me from getting hurt. CHORUS Seven letters short and sweet is what you’ll always hear from me. ![]() You’re so much more than I deserve ‘cuz goodbye is my favorite word. You might think it’s easy to settle in one place, but come this time tomorrow, you’ll hear me say the same ole’ song and same ole’ dance that never let’s me take a chance. I can’t stick around, ‘cuz I was born this way. Chorus If I have to let you in, then I’ll be forced to stay. Well sweet Baby haven’t you heard? Goodbye is my favorite word. Maybe if I can stay long enough, I could let myself fall in love. Seven letters short and sweet is what you’ll always hear from me. You know it’s only the truth you hear after two of three glasses of wine. CHORUS Don’t waste time trying to make sense of this heart of mine. Even if it hurts tomorrow, tonight I’ll make it okay. So don’t try to pretend that you don’t want a taste. Just looking at my number makes your heart skip a beat. Whoa You act like you’re tough, but I know how to make you weak. What you waiting for? I’ll be at the door, just a little bit to cover me up, and you can take over where we left off ‘cause tonight tonight tonight the bottle ain’t enough. Just a couple of miles, I’ll leave on the light, ‘cause you know how much I hate sleeping alone. So pick up the phone, I’m waiting at home, put your key in the truck and Baby turn it on. So if you’re out at the bar sipping on a glass of memories, I’m doing the same thing here, might as well come join me. You’ve got what I want, and you know just what I need. I know we said it’s over, but I can’t seem to sleep. You keep on getting in the way, I’m tired of being torn apart, you keep tearing me apart. Some things are better off in the past, even though he made me feel like the only thing that’s ever been real. So shut up heart! Stop telling me to go back. I get lost when I let you try to take the lead, but all you do is make me bleed. Shut up heart! I can’t take no more of your lies. I’m trying to walk away for the last time, but you never let me get him off my mind. So shut up heart! Stop pulling me in, making me always think about him. You’re bringing back thoughts and causing tears. It’s hard to breathe with this heaviness. |
