In this guide, you will learn the top 3 tips for using video cameras to capture special events.

1. When using video cameras at a special event, it is important to avoid shooting in what is referred to as “LP Mode”. While this is considered the economical choice due to the fact that it allows you to record more on a tape or a memory card, it also reduces the overall quality of the video.

3. Most video cameras of today come complete with a wide variety of special effects that can be turned on to enhance video that you elect to record. When taping a special event, avoid these effects. Nine times out of ten, they will damper the overall presentation of the event.

Special events occur throughout all of our lives. Advances in video technology now allow us to capture these special moments. By following the top 3 tips in this guide, you can successfully record any event with any number of video cameras with success.

Your will   is drawn up to help your loved ones manage the disposal of your estate when you’ve expired. Whilst yours may be simple, here are one or two unusual ones.

Make A Will Don’t Leave It to Chance
It is sensible to make a will. Most of us understand this, but actually doing it seems such a bother.  How much thought went in these “wills with a difference”?

Even the celebrated conjurer and escapologist, Harry Houdini, couldn’t trick death. Having perished from a ruptured appendix, one of his biggest surprises came with the reading of his will. His magicians equipment went to his former partner Theodore, who was also his brother. His magical powers failed on the next item – his appreciable collection of writings on magic and the supernatural. He left these to the American Society for Psychical Research, but with the requirement that the research officer J Malcolm Bird, who also was the editor of their journal, resigned. They rejected the offer the collection passed to the Library of Congress.

The white rabbits that he used in his performance abandoned their hats and were distributed amongst the children of friends. Continuing the strange style, his left his wife ten words, which formed a secret code, with the pledge that he would use these words to contact her from the afterlife. Every year for 10 years, following his death, she faithfully held séances, but Houdini never made contact.

Kozmic Blues and rock singer Janis Lyn Joplin had a short but interesting history. She recorded many rock anthems and four albums, including “To Love Somebody” and “Me and Bobby McGee”. After years of drug addiction, she passed away from an overdose, aged 27. Two days before her death in 1970 her cheapest wills      the sum of 2,500 dollars to fund an all night party at her favourite pub so that her mates could “get blasted after I’m gone.” It must have been some celebration – that was a sizable amount of cash back in 1970.

We’ve all read about people that, unexpectedly, leave all their estate to the cats’ home, much to the anger of their relatives. Lot’s of family feuds start when a will is read. As long as the person who made the will is of sound mind and not under duress, there is often nothing that can be done to object to such a decision.

Quirks aside, if you die without leaving a will, those whom you would want to inherit will not necessarily be the ones that do so. You could have a partner of many years, but if you’re not married or in a legal partnership, he or she won’t receive your money, regardless of your aims and assurances. This can be upsetting when it’s not clearly understood and can result in terrible financial results.

The modern method to get your will under way is to go online and locate a will adviser     . However simple your aims are, it’s best to have the professionals to write it for you and you can be assured that you’re leaving things exactly how you would wish them to be.

Twitter, the social networking and micro-blogging service that allows its users to send and read other users’ updates (otherwise known as tweets), which are text-based posts of up to 140 characters in length, has no-doubt become quite a phenomenon. It is widely rumored that Twitter turned down an acquisition offer from Facebook for $500 Million. A recent TechCrunch report stated that Twitter’s valuation has reached in excess of $250 Million. There are reports that state that the reach of Twitter has exceeded that of Digg in a very short span of time.  With an excess of 5 Million users and over 50 Million monthly visits, everyone’s tweeting!

Needless to say, what’s made Twitter a revolution is its ease of use.  From signup to search, from following others to getting followed by others, to tweet or to retweet, to use the web or the phone, Twitter is just plain simple.  Add to this the power of Twitter APIs, there are hundreds of tools, utilities and apps that continue to spring from nowhere.  Today, there is a twitter tool just about to do anything you want on twitter.

Some use twitter for chit-chat.  Ranging from “I just got up, and am off to a shower” to “Please get out and vote for me”, much is being said in 140 characters or less.  Folks are asking questions and people in hundreds respond.  Advertisers market their products, Affilaites promote products, News sources announce breaking news and Bloggers post their blogs as tweets - whether for personal or for business, Twitter is seen everywhere and used by everyone.

It has never been easier to build a network of followers.  Never before has it been so easy to build a network of a 1,000 followers who follow what you have to say and are ready to receive a message from you.  And best of all, it costs nothing to do it!  Just think about what you would have to do to get a following of a 1,000 people - whether it is cold calling, or mail advertisement, or opt-in email marketing or a paid squeeze page lead capture - it takes a lot of time, money and effort.

The benefits being obvious, everyone is looking to build a wide follower base.  There is a widely prevalent phenomenon on Twitter that is increasing in popularity - “Follow Me and I will Follow You Back“.  This simply means that if you follow me on twitter, I will follow you right back.  There are two schools of thought on this.

The first school of thought is that it is not appropriate to follow everyone that follows you.  The second school of thought obviously thinks not.  The idea of not following everyone that follow you has some logic to it.  You could think of some parallels to this - “Buy my product, I will buy your product back” or “Subscribe to my newsletter, I will subscribe to your newsletter back”.  One could also argue that if you follow 1,000’s of people, you really can’t do justice, as multiple tweets from each one (assuming each one is active) would just be information overload and you simply can’t follow any tweet, giving it justice.  Both of these arguments could be argued as having some merit.  But, also not.

Think for a moment why people use Twitter.  True, one of the primary objectives is for you say what you are doing now and for others to tune in (or “follow”), but Twitter can be used for reasons well beyond that.  Twitter is a wonderful networking tool, where you can build relationships with others and communicate not just now, but for months and years to come.  You can sure tweet for the moment, but you can just as well message the other person in private.  And if it is true that Twitter is a social networking tool, and if others have something of value to offer to you in return, there is nothing unusual about you tuning into their message as well.  After all, you only stand to benefit!

The school of thought that says “Follow Me and I will Follow You Back” does has merit.  Just because two parties follow each other, there is no commitment or obligation.  Either party can ignore tweets, or can search through tweets by name, by RSS feeds or utilizing one of the infinite tools available, if the ongoing tweets are missed.  Either party can message each other, and either party can choose to review or ignore such messages.  And if one does not wants to be bothered, that could be done as well.  Worst case, one could unfollow and/or block others as well. Just as anything else in life, if you use the tool effectively, you will only stand to benefit.

Twitter is real.  Twitter works.  Twitter is the tool of the century - probably bigger and better than any other Social Networking or Web 2.0 tool.  Embrace it!

And if “Follow” bothers you, because you simply can’t follow 1,000’s of people (which I agree with and in that context, Twitter allowing one to follow 2,000 people may not make sense either, unless most are not active, in which case they should not be on Twitter in the first place!), then follow others on Twitter (and be followed) so you can use it to “Send and Receive Messages“.   Again, there is no better tool, whether online or offline, that allows you to be able to send and receive messages to such a wide audience that has mutually agreed to receive and send messages to each other.

If you agree with this thought process, maybe we should rephrase the theme to “Receive Me and I will Receive You Back“.    And, maybe we are not just talking Twitter, but rather an enhanced Twitter, one that is naturally Two-way, maybe we are talking Twowitter

It can be a nightmare trying to think of a gift for a dear relative . The last resort gifts like socks or perfume , might be ok for distant friends or relatives, but if you like the person well enough to know that they are in to making their own music , then you feel a certain desire to assist them to make a noise .

The UK Channel 5 TV series the Gadget Show, with the delightful Suzi Perry, did a musical round-up just last week . They featured a variety of musical gadgets , but the users choice picked the Korg Kaoscillator as their overall winner.

Great you think. They probably won’t have one if these weird little things already! But then you find Korg have no stock, possibly for 3 months. A bit of a late present that one.

But fear not because the Internet has a virtual alternative. I found out about the Chaos Wave Synth by accident as a video on the Web Video Widget network. It isn’t a copy of, but an inspiration based upon the Korg. None the less, it is still yellow, hmm that will remind them of you every day, and it certainly seems to make the same sort of “noises”. It’s called the Chaos Wave Synth and you can watch the video at their website. If you have enough laptops, you could even form the first chaos orchestra.

I say noises, but actually, with a little practice in the right hands and it seems to be quite a stonking musical instrument, with a wide range of tones and playing possibilities.

If you’re as old as I am, the XY pad (a sort of touch pad) seems a little reminiscent of the Dubrek Stylophone, infamised by Rolf De Harris, or the theremin, that wand like instrument featured heavily in 1950’s sci-fi B movies and in the Beach Boys record.

It certainly seems capable of producing those sort of tones as well, but have a sneaking feeling it will be the drum beats and bas lines that those young generation will get absorbed in to.

Being software it does need a computer, but that can be a laptop. Either way, there should be a way of getting headphones on it, to prevent aunt Mildred from being sucked up in to the poptastic songs at the gathering.

Giving musical instruments as presents, is always a bit of an issue in my book. Give a 5 year old a drum kit, and he will play (bang) it all day, much to everyone elses shragrala. So as this can be on headphones, it’s a much safer bet in my book.

It’s available as a download, so there’s no queuing at the shops to get it either and it should still be open, even on the day itself. So if the thought of traipsing around the shops gets too mind numbing for you, you may want to buy yourself a copy too. Even without any musical skill, it can be pretty entertaining.

Aah the gift of presents. It just fills you, doesn’t it? But I’m buying one for myself too. Don’t see why the youngsters should have all the fun
Happy days.

Big wave surfing is a discipline in surfing where surfers paddle into or are towed onto waves which are at least 20 feet (6.2 m) high, on surf boards known as “guns” or “rhino chasers”. The bigger the wave, the faster it travels, and the bigger the surf board needed to catch it. Big wave surfing is a popular sport in Catlins. Ocean swells are waves on the surface of the ocean with long wavelength. It seems like the last time I talked to a sponsor they said that they weren’t really into sponsoring big wave riders which seems funny to me, because I think big wave surfing is the essence of surfing.

But they are more distant breaks where the surfers have to be towed into the waves by water scooters. At Waimea Bay, surfing is done as the Hawaiians did it centuries ago - by paddling furiously into a wave and hoping you get it before it gets you. Intimately documenting the lives of giant wave surfers as they seek out and ride monster waves Quest takes viewers into an elite subculture world of top athletes, big personalities and fierce passion for life and their sport. Hunting waves in the world’s most exotic locations, and during the awe-inspiring rides, viewers are taken on the trip of a lifetime never before captured as intimately and thoroughly as in Quest. On just 24-hours notice between January 1 and March 31, 2007, 24 legendary big-wave surfers will make the pilgrimage to the treacherous Mavericks surf break to compete for the famed title. This year, the invitees will compete for an impressive $75,000 prize purse.

Planning for a wedding can be a very involved process. There is the ceremony itself, but then there is the catering, the location, the transportation, the flowers and of course the DJ. In a place like Philadelphia, with around one and a half million people, a person should not have a hard time finding a Mobile DJ.

However, finding the right Philadelphia Wedding DiscJockey is a process that needs every bit as much attention as the caterer. There are a number of things to consider when looking for and deciding on a Philly DJ. The most important rule is to not, under any circumstances, consider using your cousin and his ability to create awesome mix CDs. Now that rule number one is established, here are some quick pointers to hiring a Mobile DJ.

First, check your immediate area for DJs and then compile a short list. Write down five or six DJs leaving room for notes. Notes will help you compare one DJ against another. Second, and probably the obvious next step, is to make the calls.

When talking with the DJ you will want to concentrate one a few key bits of information:

1. Cost. How much are you willing to spend? Does the Wedding DJ Philly charge by the hour or by the event?

2. Song library. It’s important to find a DJ that offers a wide variety of music. You will not only want a DJ who can change up the music, but be able to cater to the tastes of your guests. Your 100 country music fan guests will become very weary after 30 minutes of rap music, or vice versa.

3. DJ for wedding interaction and personality. Does the DJ seem like a fun person? Is this someone who is going to entertain as well as play music? In some cases a great DJ can make a bad master of ceremony. You are going to want someone as lively and entertaining as the music they are spinning.
