“In matters nuclear one thing is certain: there is no protection in an iron curtain.” A letter in The Times May 3rd, 1986.
On the 26th of April 1986 shortly after midnight, to be precise, at 1:23 GMT, there occurred near the Ukrainian town of Chernobyl a tremendous explosion at a huge nuclear power plant, followed by a gradual meltdown of the reactor No. 4.
These are the machineries used to evacuate Chernobyl.
Hundreds of pieces of Russian army hardware is left on the small field right near to Chernobyl. All this machinery has participated in Chernobyl accident liquidation and is radioactive from top to bottom. Now it dies out under the open skies of deserted Chernobyl.

Pixel aspect ratio in Photoshop
The problem is that whenever I try to open some images (.jpg) within Photoshop, I get a warning message telling me that:
Pixel aspect ratio correction is for preview purposes only. Turn it off for maximum image quality.
For those who don’t know or have a vague idea about pixel ratio, here’s what this is all about.
Pixel aspect ratio specifies the ratio of width to height of one pixel in an image. Frame aspect ratio describes the ratio of width to height in the frame dimensions of an image. For example, D1 NTSC has a pixel aspect ratio of 0.9 (or 0.9 width by 1.0 height). It also has a frame aspect ratio of 4:3 (or 4.0 width by 3.0 height).
Some video formats output the same frame aspect ratio, but use a different pixel aspect ratio. For example, some NTSC digitizers produce a 4:3 frame aspect ratio, with square pixels (1.0 pixel aspect ratio), and a resolution of 640 x 480. D1 NTSC produces the same 4:3 frame aspect ratio, but uses rectangular pixels (0.9 pixel aspect ratio) and a resolution of 720 x 486. D1 pixels, which are always rectangular, are vertically oriented in systems producing NTSC video and horizontally oriented in systems producing PAL video.
If you display rectangular pixels on a square-pixel monitor without alteration, images and appear distorted; for example, circles distort into ovals. However, when displayed on a broadcast monitor, the images are correct.
Why?
Remember when Radio was going to destroy the record industry?
Remember when Television was going to be the end of cinema?
Remember when Video would be the death of Hollywood?
Nowadays a new “threat” haunts the corporate boardrooms of the entertainment industry… The Internet!
Last weekend I decided to install the beta version of Windows 7 to see, also test the praising which flooded the internet not too long ago. I thought this over and over and decided that the best solution will be to install it on a new hard drive, thus I will not endanger my data.
Next step was to mount the hard disk into computer case. Since I wasn’t satisfied with my HDD’s position – between the two existing ones, I was forced to come up with a solution. And this generated my ‘invention’.
Ok. As unprofessional it may sound it represents the best the problems I encountered in Photoshop CS4. First of all I should explain the problem. I have installed on my system the entire Adobe Creative Suite 4. My system consists in: WinXP Professional 32bit with SP3 installed 2Gb RAM Ati HD3870 – drivers up to [...]
Happy New Year!
Ok. This might seem a little awkward, but there are some times when nothing seems to work properly. In my case, Adobe’s Creative Suite 3. My problem Was that with Adobe CS3 installed and working I ran Adobe Photoshop CS4 Portable. When I first open the Photoshop CS4 .exe file I received an error stating [...]
