OLYMPIC CEREMONY 2008 FX!!

So this is how they pulled off these effects for the 2008 Olympics Ceremony with lighting,LED screens,projectors, etc...

Said to be the largest, costliest extravaganza in Olympic history, the ceremony was watched by 91,000 people at Beijing's National Stadium and a potential audience of 4 billion worldwide, according to the Associated Press. Approximately 15,000 people reportedly participated in the pageantry, which celebrated China's first-time role as Olympic host by dramatizing 5,000 years of the country's history.



120 XPe-based media servers from High End Systems (HES) were installed in the National Stadium's server room -- the largest number ever used for any live event. Linked to HES Wholehog 3 lighting consoles and projectors with moving orbital heads, the Axon Media Servers helped pull off the opening ceremony's special effects in real time.


The Axon Media Server is a 3U rackmount device configured with Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 processors, an ATI HD2900XT graphics card, and a 320GB hard drive. As deployed in Beijing, it featured a highly customized version of XPe, with DirectX, DirectShow, and the .NET 2.0 Framework.

This Opener was so amazing.Truly defines EXCELLENCE!!!

Training AGAIN!!!

So peoples, I have decided that I am going to train in martial arts again. After being out of it for a couple years I have realized that I really miss it. Some of you may not know this but I am a 1st degree BLACKBELT with leadership status in the style of SONGHAM TAEKWONDO, but I am thinking about trying something new. My thoughts are to maybe finish Krav MAGA, which is the fighting style the Israeli military train their soldiers in. I did start training in Krav maga to be an instructor, but had to stop because I had to go back to Trinidad when my parent split, but I am ready to start again. I am going to start training at home and then maybe jump back into the ring.
