Mac going HDMI?

Adam — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 05:14:28 +0000

Macrumors.com is considering the rumor that Macs will soon be donning an HDMI port on their new systems. It’s about time! Looks as though the Mac Mini will be the first in line for the upgrade. Apple seems to be very smart in spreading out technological advancements throughout their entire product line–iPod Nano records video (to compete with Flip Video), iPhone (to compete with smart phones, Blackberry, etc.), iPad (to compete with netbooks). Teaming Mac Mini with an HDTV as its monitor would be a really sweet combo.

This would probably mean that all units with disc drives will be Blu-Ray drives as well. Speculation.

Great philosophy here…

when people serve, we make w/drawals from their life. Leader’s job is to replenish & make sure vols don’t become overdrawn.

LA Collaboration @ PV

Really cool concert with LA Collaboration tonight. Duane Funderburk (piano) and Alex Russell (violin concertmaster) are from Los Angeles and travel throughout the world collaborating with other orchestra ensembles in educating and performing classical music. Tonight was their sophomore visit with us, and they never fail to impress.

the S in SM stands for “suspended”

This tech guy ran out of mic stands, so he knotted this SM57 with its own XLR then suspended the cable from the cabinet. The mic element is snagged by the cabinet material, and it stayed suspended…even with rowdy youth musicians jumping around the stage. Brilliant!

(By the way…the S in SM is “studio”.)

I Have a Shelter graphic

A little something I’ve been working for a background to the song I Have a Shelter.

O Jesus I will hide in You, who bore my condemnation
I find my refuge in Your wounds for there I find salvation
O Jesus, You have covered me

I dig concept commercials.

Fantastic advertisement from Sussex Safer Roads. Amazing concept.

Makes me think of Ephesians 6 where Paul instructs the masters and the slaves.

When it’s all broken down, servants are supposed to make their leaders better at what they do, and the leaders are supposed to edify their followers. The problem comes when the leader absorbs all that people do for them and don’t complete the cycle of uplifting those under him/her. The same can be said of volunteers…if they aren’t recognized and honored for what they do, they won’t come back…and they certainly won’t follow.
