Whatever you put on your disk will be the final quality. You can always make the quality worse, but never better.

It all depends what you are using the video for, if it is for a presentation then no need for high data rates and smaller files.

MPEG 4 seems the way to go to keep quality in small files (XVID, DIVX) Of course, make sure that you encode the video from the source file which should be of good quality.

I would leave her alone, does it really matter if your friend hates a pretend person?

I use my bible to keep my bed level as one of the legs has broken. You could say that the bible is supporting me in a fashion (and sometimes my girlfriend as well)

As to the question as to what passage keeps me going, that has to be my girlfriends passage (both of them, amen)

Problem is that Nigerians are notoriously lazy people, it is not by chance that Nigerians are the number one criminal fraternity on the planet. The 419'ers would rather sit in an internet cafe all day sending their stupid emails than do an honest days work

Even when Nigerians move abroad they are normally up to no good and become involved in petty and sometimes major crimes. Many young Nigerians travel on student visa's, but abuse the trust they have been shown and disappear into the host country illegally. Many people say that they are clever, NO, they are just very lazy and dishonest.

Nigeria is in the bad position it is in because of Nigerians, nobody else is to blame for the countries woes. Nigerians are unfortunately doomed to failure with their current mind set and lazy, dishonest mentality.

The Nigerian mentality is to cheat your way through life and give nothing or little back to the community. The Nigerian way is to blame everybody other than themselves for their problems

They say that you can gauge the status of a nation by it's surroundings, just take a look at the filth and squalor in Lagos and you will see that this statement is true.

YOU ARE NOT WELCOME IN THE UKRAINE


Associated Press Writers

KIEV, Ukraine (AP) - Nigerian medical student George Itoro Ebong says he was waiting for a bus in central Kiev last year when three young men ran up, shouted racially charged insults at him and smashed a bottle over his head.

In the year since, the 28-year-old says, he feels safest in his dorm or in the lecture hall. When he does go to a cafe or a bar, it's only during the day and with three or four friends.

"On the street it is not safe, on the metro, even on the bus it is not safe," he says.

The numbers of such hate crimes are rising at an alarming rate in this ex-Soviet bloc country, which is trying to hone its reputation as a bastion of democracy as it pursues a spot in the European Union and NATO.

Foreigners in Ukraine have been stunned by the sudden and ferocious spike in violence.

London-based Amnesty International warned in a report released Thursday of an "alarming rise" in the attacks in recent years in this nation of 46 million.

The group said more than 60 people were targeted last year, and that six of them died. More than 30 people were attacked since the beginning of this year, and at least four were killed.

Amnesty did not give data for earlier years, but the United Nations' International Organization for Migration said there were 12 such attacks in 2006, three of them fatal, and only five attacks in 2005.

Much of the violence has been blamed on ultra-rightist groups like the Ukrainian National Labor Party.

The party leader, Evhen Herasymenko, told The Associated Press that attacking dark-skinned foreigners is like "the immune system _ the reaction of a healthy body to the infection that got into it."

Any non-Slavic-looking person can be a target. A black American diplomat, not assigned to Ukraine, was attacked in Kiev in 2005 by a group of men in an apparent hate crime. The diplomat had minor injuries.

The US State Department on its Web site now warns prospective travelers to Ukraine of "racially motivated violence."

Foreign students are perhaps the most vulnerable. Since 2002, the number of foreign students has doubled to nearly 40,000. Most come from China, Russia, Syria, India, Iran and Malaysia, the Education Ministry says.

Despite the dangers, they keep coming, lured by the solid Soviet-style education and relatively cheap tuition fees.

Rights advocates are puzzled by the rise in hate crimes but they say government inaction is partly to blame.

"These things happen when governments let them happen," Amnesty researcher Heather McGill said.

The report, which McGill co-authored, criticizes the government for failing to investigate hate crimes thoroughly and punish perpetrators.

The group said Ukrainian law enforcers fail to classify such attacks as racially motivated and instead often write them off as hooliganism, which is easier to prove in court and usually carries a lighter sentence.

Rights groups also say the government aggravates the problem by denying that racism is growing.

Ukrainian hate groups are believed to be inspired by their counterparts in Russia, which has been struggling with a much larger problem with racially motivated attacks, according to Amnesty.

Russian skinheads help the local groups, sharing tips and video clips on how to attack and torture victims and pointers on how to safely flee a crime scene, the rights group says.

Police say some 500 skinheads operate in Kiev alone. Another 1,000 members of hate groups are estimated to be active elsewhere in the country, according to the IOM.

Nigerian Henry Asimote, 40, is recovering from multiple knife wounds to the stomach he received in March when two men assaulted him on a trolley bus in Kiev.

The sports clothes seller says he may have to return with his Ukrainian wife and 2-year-old daughter to Nigeria.

"We came to this country, these were good people, but it is becoming too dangerous for me and my family," he said.

All the world's most famous chefs are male. Males are the best cooks by far

There is genius in all countries, some countries just have a little more than the average

Africans are no where to be seen in the UK IT sector. The Indians have that well and truly sewn-up

The truth is that Asians go to study and the majority of Nigerians go on a study visa to get into the UK and disappear

The good news is that the home office is getting far better at rejecting false applicants and the police and immigration service are doing a great jobs finding illegal aliens and deporting them

Maybe the shit poor North should try and swap some sand for a few barrels of oil with the south

That will be the funniest program ever

I wonder how many 419'ers will apply to take part and relieve the panel of their money

No magic is that strong!

I heard that a white European oil worker crashed into a Nigerian and the Nigerian turned into a Human being

Can you believe that?

I think he mean Mr. Pataki

The problem is that Abuja is not a Country. Maybe after what you have told me it should become independent!

I agree with you. Lagos is one of the most disgusting Capitals I have ever travelled to :-(

Jesus 'healed using cannabis'

The Guardian


Jesus was almost certainly a cannabis user and an early proponent of the medicinal properties of the drug, according to a study of scriptural texts published this month. The study suggests that Jesus and his disciples used the drug to carry out miraculous healings.

The anointing oil used by Jesus and his disciples contained an ingredient called kaneh-bosem which has since been identified as cannabis extract, according to an article by Chris Bennett in the drugs magazine, High Times, entitled Was Jesus a Stoner? The incense used by Jesus in ceremonies also contained a cannabis extract, suggests Mr Bennett, who quotes scholars to back his claims.

"There can be little doubt about a role for cannabis in Judaic religion," Carl Ruck, professor of classical mythology at Boston University said.

Referring to the existence of cannabis in anointing oils used in ceremonies, he added: "Obviously the easy availability and long-established tradition of cannabis in early Judaism _ would inevitably have included it in the [Christian] mixtures."

Mr Bennett suggests those anointed with the oils used by Jesus were "literally drenched in this potent mixture _ Although most modern people choose to smoke or eat pot, when its active ingredients are transferred into an oil-based carrier, it can also be absorbed through the skin".

Quoting the New Testament, Mr Bennett argues that Jesus anointed his disciples with the oil and encouraged them to do the same with other followers. This could have been responsible for healing eye and skin diseases referred to in the Gospels.

"If cannabis was one of the main ingredients of the ancient anointing oil _ and receiving this oil is what made Jesus the Christ and his followers Christians, then persecuting those who use cannabis could be considered anti-Christ," Mr Bennett concludes.

Seun is only interested in the sexual aspects :-)

@TV01

You have hit the nail on the head. It is about the manipulation of poor people.

Manipulation = Profit $$$$

Nigerians scamming Nigerians!

I hope some people will finally wake up and realise that these filthy criminals are not folk heroes. They are scumbags that steal from anybody!

If Rev King is 'hanging' around your church you should be worried :-)

Nigeria is a failed nation as it stands. That does not mean that it has to stay that way.

If you see the poverty, corruption, crime, filth, laziness as a sign that Nigeria is blessed then fine. :-(

I see it as a curse!

Flag and government do not change peoples attitudes! Putting heads together will not solve the problem on it's own. Actions speak louder than words alone!

Precisely :-)

Just to see how filthy Lagos was on a recent visit I made to Nigeria was enough for me to decide that society and the state have failed miserably :-(
