Art, Graphics & Video / Re: Can Anyone Give Me Tips On Aftereffect? by Briareos(m): 8:38am On Aug 31, 2014
kiki1000: Please I need tips on how to start a project on adobe after-effect, just bought the software and the worse part of it is that I tried to download tuts online but fail at ever attempt so if anybody have tips to share with me I will appreciate it much.

Why did you fail at downloading it? Although, downloading all the tuts you need will be data intensive, you can start with a book on After Effects (i personally prefer a book as they are always more detailed).

Depending on your location, I could help you with all the tuts you need for free.
TV/Movies / Re: Who Is Your Favorite Bond (007) Actor? by Briareos(m): 5:31pm On Aug 30, 2014
RayMcBlue:

Charisma comes with charm, so he can be quite the charmer too.

Sean Connery's my least favorite James bond. His acting comes off as too old fashioned, no offense. Watching him as an 007 character is like watching one of Charlie Chaplin's silent movies, except this one won't stop talking.

Daniel Craig is the perfect James Bond of the modern era, the 21st century 007 if you will. He's charismatic and yet aloof, courteous to women without appearing chauvinistic (unlike Sean Connery and Brosnan), good looking without appearing too pretty (unlike Moore and Dalton), and talks with an actual British accent (unlike the fake one used by Brosnan or the weird sounding one used by Connery).

Again I reiterate, Daniel Craig is the perfect James Bond of the Modern era. I'm pretty sure dear old Ian would have approved.

In your own opinion, sir. Your own opinion and your own personal preferences.

And yes - I agree with you, Craig's Bond is a fit for the present era. But remember Connery is not acting as James Bond now. Right? He acted as James Bond in the 60s and 70s - he was a perfect Bond for his era.

RayMcBlue: Daniel Craig. Guy got swag. Of all the past Bond actors, he's the most charismatic.

But the least charming. Sean Connery's bond can charm the pants off a girl.

TV/Movies / Re: Who Is Your Favorite Bond (007) Actor? by Briareos(m): 4:40pm On Aug 30, 2014
Close call between Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig. But Craig's Bond is too Jason Bourne-y.

Redman44: I have had this experience too several times, though It has not happened for at least a year now. And the Op is right. The attack stops when you call the name of Jesus Christ. The evil hands will press you down on the bed and you would not be able to breathe. Sometimes, I am aware of when the demon/spirit/witch is around and my spirit automatically starts to pray. The pressing would not happen then because I had prayed before the demon attacked. I understand the OP perfectly. The evil creature has never spoken to me though whenever I resisted it. It just vanishes when I call on the name of Jesus.

We need to be watchful and prayerful. Cheers.

NB: I have also been pinched in the dream by this creature/spirit/demon/witch back in 2007. God is good. Jesus is Lord. AMEN.

Why must you guys attribute єνєяу goddamn thing to spirit and supernatural entitties. Google "old hag syndrome" and break yourself from mental slavery.

Addendum: When next this happen to you, try and relax and be still. Give your brain a little time to reboot (kinda), and the paralysis will lift.

Obinoscopy: Hmmmmm......

Scientists and their jargons. All they do is explain the process. But what is the driving force behind the process? They obviously don't know.

The brain is a complex thing and they are still trying to figure so many things out. Give them a break! And why the brain is even more difficult to experiment on is the fact that it is doing so many things at the same time so it is difficut to track a particular activity. And without the ability to perfectly isolate a neuron and study it, the whole process get muddled up.

But as computers get smarter and their processing speed increase in geometric proportion, the process will become a lot easier and many breakthrough will happen and many of these mysteries will be revealed.

Scientist are not magicians. grin

rugggedest:

Point Of Order Sir!!!....Christ Embassy is a pentecostal church and not a Protestant.

Semantics... Semantics.

Protestant is a broad term referring to churches that are not Catholic or Orthodox. Pentecostals are part of a fairly new but extremely large and growing denomination. All Pentecostals are Protestants, but not all Protestants are Pentecostal.

So, Christ Embassy is both Protestant and pentecostal. Protestant is the grandfather while pentecostal is the father and Christ embassy is the son.

If you like podcasts and history, there's an awesome Dan Carlin's Hardcore History series called "Wrath of the Khans" that I'd totally recommend to ya. It details his life, military tactics, successors etc. It's also free and easily accessible on the TuneIn radio app if you happen to have that.



I'm a history buff. Will check the links out ASAP.

Vectorchuks: Don't be deceived by mere false story. Mark my word it can never happen because I know who pastor chris is. I expect more of this type of stories, because even Jesus faced similar situation when some people thought and said that he was possessed of an evil spirit .

This is what idolizing a man can do to one's head - it will rid it of any sensible reasoning. You cant even know yourself as of one hour to come. You only know who you were, and you are right now at this moment. How can you now boast of knowing a man you know through TV?

Art, Graphics & Video / Re: Cinema 4d Vs 3d Max Vs Blender 3d: A Novice Want Ur Help. by Briareos(m): 3:06pm On Aug 29, 2014
kiki1000: 3D modelers, animators, and designers, please I am a lover of animation and would want to know more about art in the 3D world, I am using cinema 4d to learn but always hit a brick wall, recently I heard of blender for the first time, and heard of 3d max like a year ago, so I want to ask some questions that I need answers from pros like u guys,
1. Must I be a fine artist or a cartoonist to be able to model the characters I have imagined?
2. If question 1 is NO then, Between the 3 softwares I mentioned above which is the best to learn with?
3. I live in bayelsa state, is there any where I can learn from an experienced person?
Thanks.

1. Modelling is a skill and it can be mastered. All you need is time and practice. And like felixchip said, having imagination will really help you.

2. Blender is free. But the reality is that most softwares are free in Nigeria. Just a walk to your nearest shopping complex where they sell CDs would get you any software you need. I would suggest you continue with Cinema4D simply because of it integration with After Effects. After Effects CC comes with a lite version of cinema 4D. But it wont matter sha if you use another software for composition other than AE.

3. Consider investing in data plans and download tutorials online.

From your words it's clear that you are either a product of divorce or speaking from the depth of bitterness.

Or I'm just allergic to double standard and bullshit.

successking:
Divorce is not the way forward and can never be in a troubled marital relationship. When you begin to have irreconcilable differences in marriage, examine yourself and you will see the crack line.

Change they says, is the only constant thing in the world. Human beings change. When a couple marry each other, they are on the same page in several things. But over the years, changes will occur that might turn them to total strangers. Some couples are lucky enough to change together, but not everyone is that lucky.

When this shit happens, the best thing is to separate instead of fighting and trying to be in a loveless marriage. After all, you have limited time to spend on earth - why waste it on a sour relationship? Єνєяу individual owe himself/herself happiness.

successking:
If divorce is a core value in your family, then keep it for your family and don't indoctrinate others into believing that it's the way forward.

Trolololol.

If divorce is a core value in my family? I won't have a family in the first place if divorce is a core value? Lol

Evil has no gender, dear friend. Remind me of the gender of these people?


1- Talat Pasha ( Grand Vizier of the Sultan in the Ottoman empire from 1917 to 1918) - Talat declared an order to wipe out the Armenian race.  People were whipped, tortured, robbed, raped and killed.  All of the Armenians were forced into concentration camps.

2 - Osama bin Laden was an Islamic terrorist leader that lead the terrorist organization called the Al-Qaeda.  He is responsible for the 9-11 attack, which injured more than 6,000 and killed about 3,000. 

3 - Kim Il Sung - He was dictator of North Korea from 1948 to 1972.  Kim Il Sung started the Korean War, which killed 3 million people.  After the war, he brainwashed the people of North Korea into idolizing him, even though he made the country a lot worse than it was before.

4 - Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini - He was the religious leader of Iran from 1979 to 1989.  He was also the leader of the 1979 Iranian Revolution, which killed 3,000 to 60,000 people.

5 - Emperor Hirohito - He was emperor of Japan from 1926 to 1989. He committed the war crime called The Rape of Nanking which killed 300,000.  He ordered every Chinese war prisoner to be killed.  About 200,000 women were sexually assaulted.  Husbands were sometimes forced to rape their wives and daughters.


6 - Nero - He was Rome’s 5th emperor from AD 54 to AD 68.  He brought the Roman Empire to ruin.  He burned entire cities.  He murdered thousands of people including his aunt, stepsister, ex-wife, mother, wife and adoptive brother.  


7 - And my favorite villain - Ghengis Khan - He was Khan of the Mongolian Empire from 1206 to 1227. He and his army destroyed countless numbers of cities, solders, civilians and children.  People were killed  by having molten metal and silver poured into their eyes and ears. In one massacre alone, 700,000 people were killed. 


8 - Leopold II of Belgium. I dont think I need to talk about this evil being and his atrocities in Congo.


9. Idi Amin
10. Sanni Abacha
11. Adolf Hitler
12. Joseph Stalin
13. Pol Pot
14. Etc etc


Now these are real "EVIL" in human form. Whats their gender again?

I can infer without any reasonable doubt that you are one of those GOATS who feels that white is superior to black. The way of live of the white is not written in the bible to be the acceptable standard measure of the way of live in the world.

It's just your mind set!

Maybe he's not talking about superiority here. Maybe he's talking about the fact that whites are more evolved than us. Or because they consider human rights to be for humans and not just men.

And women are not just objects to be acquired like cars. To have like four different cars for four different occasions.

Alright, I'm getting out of tracks here, but maybe he's talking about the fact that over there a woman has the right to file for divorce when she is no longer comfortable in a marriage rather than die there while the man is out there sowing seeds.

evegran: If you think I'm gullible, that's totally your business. Why is majority believing his wife is saying the truth? She's also human and selfish, apparently- and capable of seeking to be on top at whatever costs. Pastor Chris is human, agreed! But in this case, he is innocent. Carry out an unbiased research and you'd find the truth, if you even know what "truth" means.

You must know something the WIFE doesn't know. Share it, please.

LyfeJennings: Unreasonable wife from the depth of hell. even if pastor Chris is guilty has charged,what happened to the forgiveness Christ preached and practiced? what happened to the righteous ways of the women God spoke about in the Bible?
Even If pastor Chris cup is filled,what happened to separation without a court divorce?

My conclusion: Anita is a very greedy woman ordained by Lucifer Himself to destroy the Lord's ministry of Chris Oyakhilome.

Of course that's a perfect answer to your dilemma. She has to be greedy.

Unlike brainwashed African women that will stay in a marriage no matter what the husband does, she comes from a part of the world where you pay for your crimes and indiscretions not minding your gender or your status in the community.

Before she can apply for divorce, she must have taken the time to think about the consequences of her actions and the sort of brouhaha it would cost. Who knows? She might have given Chris several warnings.

Hey, be a sport and give us a history lesson. What other book testified to the existence of Jesus aside the bible?

Even Plato and Socrates that lived and died way before Jesus time have multiple books confirming their existence.

The whole story of Jesus is taken from different myths that predated the bible. Horus, for example, has so many similarities with Jesus. And he lived before Jesus.
