Swine Flu Mapping 2.0
Free Dashboard map widget for your Mac more>> Were chagrined to announce the public release of HandBrake 0.9.1. Why chagrined? Because 0.9.0 wasnt as stable as it should have been, something 0.9.1 rectifies.
This minor update squashes a number of glaring bugs. Most notably, HandBrake will no longer hang at the end of encoding MKV files with chapter markers. This means the Animation, Bedlam, Constant Quality Rate, Deux Six Quatre, Film, and Television presets are now usable.
Additional improvements:
Impressive performance enhancements
Significant interface prettification (Mac more than Win)
Color subtitles now show up in color
Changing dimensions in Picture Settings no longer causes a crash (Mac)
Forced subtitle support
More robust exception handling (Win)
Closing the main window no longer causes HandBrake to crash (Mac)
Using Slow deinterlacing no longer doubles the chapter count.
MPEG Stream support is now case-insensitive (.VOB as well as .vob, etc) and more compatible
No more error messages sent to standard out instead of standard error
Bigger buffer for the activity log (Mac)
Proper display of fading subtitles amv mac
On-completion options to shutdown, suspend, etc (Win)
Same as source FPS now works correctly when the end-credits of a progressive film are interlaced.
Add-to-queue fixed (Win)
Target size fixed for the umpteenth time (Mac)<<less

Compendium is the semantic hypertext concept mapping tool more>>
Compendium a great tool, the result of over 15 years continual research, deployment and development of a tool to support the real time mapping of discussions in meetings, collaborative modelling, and the longer term management of this information as organizational memory.
Compendium was initially developed in Verizon research labs as a next generation version of the QuestMap product (read more) which provided software support for the widely recognised IBIS methodology (Issue-Based Information System), as embodied in Dialog Mapping by CogNexus Institute.
Compendium is arguably the most advanced IBIS mapping tool available, but goes much further with the addition of extensive support for web publishing, integration with other applications, support for multiple methods, and other advanced functionality.
Verizon, CogNexus, and other Compendium practitioners are now collaborating with the Knowledge Media Institute at the Open University (UK) who are developing the software further and integrating it with other collaboration technologies (see their eScience CoAKTinG project).
Compendium is a robust system, used for real work, but not a commercial product. Its first free public release, of v.1.2, occurred in January 2003, followed by many other releases. The source code became freely available in 2004.

Open via Map 1.1
Open via Map offers you a chance to tell the Finder in System 8.0 and later to ignore the creator type of a document when it is opened. more>>
Open via Map 1.1 offers you a chance to tell the Finder in System 8.0 and later to ignore the creator type of a document when it is opened. Instead, it uses the document's file extension (as set in the Internet control panel) to control which application is used to open the document.So, for example, if you had a file mapping in the Internet control panel for ".jpg" files which was set to PictureViewer, all files with a ".jpg" extension opened by the Finder, regardless of their real creator type, will be opened by PictureViewer.
Requirements:
- System 8.0 or higher

Lucy Tuning 1.0a1
Lucy Tuning is a program to tune music. more>>
Beyond the scales, tunings and modes of Western music (Lydian, Ionian, Mixolydian, Dorian, Aeolian, Phrygian, or Locrian...), with LucyTuning, it is possible to emulate Japanese, Indonesian, Chinese, Indian, Arabic (makam) and any conceivable tuning system.
Western harmonic structure may be used with this very specific meantone tuning system. This enables users to progress beyond the limitations of twelve note equal temperament (12tET), and produce music with controlled and predetermined levels of consonance or dissonance.
It seems that the traditional scientific mapping of harmonics may be a simplistic paradigm of a more profound and fundamental underlying reality. Instead of considering audio as a static two dimensional mapping (e.g. sine wave), there appears to be a dynamic pattern which could consist of more dimensions than are revealed by the standard physics and mathematics of acoustics. Lucy Tuning gives insight to this topology and structure.
- Mac OS X 10.2 or later.
