Exploring the Sun uses images from NASA, NOAA, and NSO to explore our Sun with pictures.The program uses simple instructions (buttons and switches) in order to guide students through Basic Sun information, two science experiments and a fun multiple choice test.

The information presented is very basic, but made much more interesting by actual photo images of the Sun. It has been reviewed and recommended by Sky & Telescope and Astronomy Now as a tutorial for young astronomers.

The Lord Of The Rings: Armoury of the Third Age is a fantastic icon set presenting 24 handrawn images that pay hommage to J.R. Tolkeins Lord of the Rings series.

The illustrations are nothing short of amazing and the readme is definitely worth checking out!

All icons are aquafied and look best in 128x128 at 32bit mode.

Sun Spotter is a very intereting tool for grabbing the latest white-light image of the Sun, taken from the SOHO web site.

The image corresponds to the sort of view you would see using a telescope equipped with a standard solar filter.

Some brief notes are included to explain what it is youre looking at.
Intended for amateur astronomers and teachers/students interested in the Sun.

The Battle of Alberta represents the name of one of the greatest rivalries in all of sports, namely the Edmonton Oilers and the Calgary Flames. It is also the name of a blog that follows both sides of that rivalry to the joy of Albertans everywhere.

This widget combines the RSS feed for the latest posts on BoA as well as the schedule for the 8 "battles" that will take place this season and seasons to come...

Brightness curve adjust is an iMovie plug-in that lets you exert photoshop-level control over brightness in your clips.

A pixels brightness is determined by its composition of red, green, and blue values. A perfect digital image has a linear brightness range running straight from zero to 255. However, most devices (and especially photo paper) do not perceive light in a linear fashion. The straight line becomes distorted. This plug-in can either distort or repair a clips brightness curve.

Brightness curve adjust sports one 256 by 256 array for individual brightness settings, plus pre-set and parametric calculation routines (plus the ability to load from or save your pre-sets to disk)


Note: Brightness curve adjust is more powerful, but less intuitive to use than our Brightness Equalizer plug-in. If your main goal is to adjust a digital clip to normal film media brightness behavior, you should use our brightness equalizer plug-in.

Here are some key features of "Brightness Curve Adjust":

· one 256 band graphical brightness array
· edit the brightness array interactively by simply clicking the mouse
· get live feedback for all your changes while you edit the curve
· pre-sets: linear, inverse, n-step (up/down), bell curve (normal, inverted), hyperbolic (4 variants), level, s-curve (normal, inverted)
· parametric pre-sets: you control how the preset calculates the values
· load and save any setting to disk as an editable text file
· choose reference color
· reference color displayed in as reference line
· master f/x to mix result with original
· HD compatibility.


Whats New in This Release:

· parametric pre-sets
· HD compatibility
· remember settings between iMovie sessions
· live preview while setting up curve
· 2.0 core.

The subterranean Underdark, one of the most popular and awe-inspiring worlds in the history of D&D, has now been reawakened within the Neverwinter Nights Universe.

The world is ignorant. Most will sleep away the blackest night and awake to welcome the new light of dawn secure that the light always returns. Not for all. Deep under the crust of humanity and civility is a place where nightmares never rest. Where the light of day cannot shine and slithering horrors dwell in the pits only seen in the visions of a madman. An entire world waits to be explored. An entire world waits for a bringer of light. The Underdark waits.

Brightness equalizer is an iMovie plug-in that lets you exert photoshop-level control over brightness in your clips. It works similar to brightness curve adjust, except that instead of setting in/out values absolutely, you set them relatively (like in an audio equalizer).

A pixels brightness is determined by it s composition of red, green, and blue values. A perfect digital image has a linear brightness range running straight from zero to 255. However, most devices (and especially photo paper) do not perceive everything perfectly.

The straight line becomes distorted. this plug can either distort or repair a clip s brightness curve. Brightness curve adjust sports one 256 band equalizer for individual brightness control, plus individual pre-set and calculation routines (plus the ability to load from or save your pre-sets to disk)

Note: Brightness curve adjust is more powerful, but less intuitive to use than brightness equalizer. If your main goal is to adjust a digital clip to normal film media brightness behavior, you should use this plug. If you need more power, try brightness curve adjust. If you need even more power, try RGB curve adjust.

Whats New in This Release:

· Live preview for equalizer setup
· full HD capabilities
· greatly enhanced interface
· factory pre-sets
· parameters for generators expanded
· save settings between iMovie sessions
· reset and undo for equalizer setup.

There was Astronomy Picture of the Day 1.0. Then, the better Astronomy Picture of the Day was released by another developer, which is a clear and impertinent copy of the original Astronomy Picture of the Day. Now, however, the creators of the original Astronomy Picture of the Day widget have created Astronomy Picture of the Day 2.0. And you ll see why this, truly, could be called The Best Astronomy Picture of the Day .

The subterranean Underdark, one of the most popular and awe-inspiring worlds in the history of D&D, has now been reawakened within the Neverwinter Nights Universe.

Whats New in This Release:

· Official Campaign: Chapter 2E - Made Volerons OnDeath script a bit more robust.
· HotU: Chapter 2 - Fixed an issue that could sometimes occur during the battle in the Environs near the end of Chapter 2. You should no longer get stuck and be unable to move if the Battle Herald does not approach you and initiate a conversation with you (this fix will retroactively fix saved games exhibiting this issue, but only if you load a saved game from before you entered the Environs).
· Added a new command line parameter for automatically loading a module in single player. This will cause the module to be loaded and takes the player to the premade character select screen.
· +LoadNewModule "module name that needs quotes if it contains spaces"
· Added a new command line parameter for automatically testing a module in single player. This will cause the module to be loaded and then starts the module using the first character listed on the premade character select screen.
· +TestNewModule "module name that needs quotes if it contains spaces"
· Added 3 portraits and 3 music themes from the BioWare Premium Modules Kingmaker, ShadowGuard, and Witchs Wake 1 to game resources.
· Fixed an issue that was causing the game to slow down and become unplayable at the start of SoU Chapter 2.
· Fixed an issue with creatures some times occupying the same space. This should happen a lot less frequently now.
· Extended the glowing monk eye effect to work on all the default playable races.
· Neutral monks now get ultra cool purple glowing eyes.
· Fixed placement of glowing monk eyes on Human/Half-Elf females (much thanks to the DLA team for their help with this).
· Fixed placement of helmets on Human/Half-Elf females (much thanks to the DLA team for their help with this).
· Added server support for the ability to refuse player login attempts if the master server could not be reached. In the nwnplayer.ini files under the heading [Server Options] set the follwowing option to 1 "Master Server Authentication Required For Player Login=1"
· Added the ability to turn on/off the Heartbeat logging in the log file (default is now off). In the nwnplayer.ini file under [Game Options] set "Heartbeat Logging=1" in order to turn the Heartbeat logging back on.
· Added a new nwnplayer.ini setting to have the server do some spell validation for spells cast by players. Under [Server Options] set "Validate Spells=1". Note: If you are using an edited spells.2da that is only being used server side, you may want to disable this option if your players are finding that they cant cast certain spells anymore (the log file should indicated if this is happening).
· Added new option to the nwnplayer.ini file under [Server Options] "Account validation required during Master Server down times=1" If this option is turned on, the server will track the public CD-Keys of each player logging onto the server. If the Master Server ever goes down for any reason (e.g. for scheduled maintenance) then the server will validate itself that the player name of any new player trying to connect is in fact using the same public cd-key that they last logged in with.
· Fixed an issue with the Greater Sanctuary icon some times incorrectly showing up as the regular Sanctuary icon.
· Fixed an issue with Damage Immunities not working correctly once they were stacked way too high above 100%.
· Fixed an issue with the Enable Texture Animations advanced video setting not being restored correctly when restarting the game (if it was turned off).
· Fixed Damage Immunities against weapons with more than one damage type (e.g. Halberds with slashing/piercing damage) to work correctly.
· Immunity to "Mind Affecting Spells" will no longer make you immune to the Monks Stunning Fist attack.
· Wounding effects are now removed from creatures once you leave the area that the wounded creature is in.
· Added skyboxes back into the outdoor areas of the original Official Campaign.
· Fixed an issue that could rarely cause your character to become illegal if you leveled up during an episode of game lag.
· The "Single Player Enforce Legal Characters" setting in the nwnplayer.ini file has been disabled. ELC is now always turned off in single player games.
· Fixed an issue that was causing creatures to always face east when sitting on a stool placeable (plc_x05.pwk).
· Fixed another issue where under specific circumstances items would not show up in your inventory panel.
· Immunity to mind spells no longer makes you immune to the Assasins Death Attack.
· Sneak/Death attacks now properly respect the Pale Masters Deathless Mastery feat.
· Fixed a minor animation issue that could occur if you performed a Whirlwind attack while you had some 2 handed weapons equipped.
· Fixed some issues with Tile "time of day" animations. This was causing flickering and other issues at the end of a DayToNight/NightToDay transition.
· Fixed an issue with the Force Field door sounds using the default wooden door sounds (placeableobjsnds.2da, genericdoors.2DA).
· Fixed an issue related to copying a creature from a hak pak through scripting and then saving and loading the hak pak saved game from inside gameplay (was causing some different weird issues).
· Added support for WeaponType 5 (Bludgeoning and Piercing) in the BaseItems.2da.
· Updated Morningstars to use the new Bludgeoning and Piercing WeaponType (BaseItems.2da).
· The following weapons have had their WeaponType changed to 3 (Slashing) in the BaseItems.2da in order to bring them inline with 3rd edition D&D rules (and their NWN in game descriptions): Longsword, Bastard sword, Greatsword, Katana, and Double Axe.
· Added missing armor proficiency to Gnolls.
· Made some fixes to prevent game/character hacking. Sorry, but we will never publicly discuss specific changes to the game with regards to hacking the game.

DM Client
· DMs can now still login to a server when the server is full, so that they are not prevented from performing any required administration tasks. If you go above the 64 player maximum, server performance may be adversely affected until some players leave the server (your mileage may vary).
· The game no longer displays encumbered feedback messages for DMs, since they actually cant ever be encumbered.

Custom Content
· Added a new column to the feat.2da "ReqAction" (all default NWN feats have this value set to 1 and if the column is missing from the feats.2da, such as in a hak pak, it will also default to 1). Turning this off means that the adjusted feat will no longer require an action from the object (it fires immediately, takes no action, and ignores your action queue entirely). In order to use this new functionality you need to do the following:
· Set the "ReqAction" value for the feat to 0 in the feat.2da
· Have a spellID associated with the feat in the feat.2da.
· Have a "ImpactScript" specified in the spells.2da for the spellID that you specified in the feat.2da
· The ImpactScript will then fire immediately when the feat is used.
· Walk meshes now work when placed at heights above -30 (previous lower limit was -10).
· Added an option to change/increase the selector height (when placing tiles) in the tileset "set" file. In order to use this you must add a new setting called "SelectorHeight" to the set file and specify the desired float value for this setting. The selector height will continue to default to the transition height if it has not been specified.
· Added more tile path nodes types m, n, o, and p. For custom tile set support.

Select the folder(s) and drop them on to this droplet icon. Then, all the items in the folder(s) and their subfolders will be viewed by Name.

The script searches for the folders recursively. But if the folder is already viewed by Name, Size, Kind, or Date, then the script will do nothing to that folder.
