Rest in Peace, my grandfather: Azariah "Gaga" Clinard Brown

H e lived for well over 100 years. This is something I cannot fathom... this kind of timespan. Yet, he did it surrounded by love and family. His last few days were difficult but that is now over. I will always love you, Gaga.

The Portuguese Language is an incredibly beautiful linguistic experience. I have begun formally studying Brazilian Portuguese.

This Tiddle supports it. I hope it helps. If you have any questions or comments, please let me know.

The World Of Woot

What is Woot (from Wikipedia)?
Woot is an Internet retailer based in the Dallas suburb of Carrollton, Texas. It was founded by electronics wholesaler Matt Rutledge and debuted on July 12, 2004. Woot was one of the early pioneers of the "One deal a day" business model on the internet. Woot offers one discounted product each day on its web site, woot.com. The product is available for 24 hours; it "expires" at midnight (US Central time) and is replaced by a different product for the next day.

A Woot-Off

The site will occasionally deviate from the one-product-per-day model for a “Woot-Off”, where a succession of products are available for a period of unannounced length, usually 24-72 hours. This mode is indicated by rotating lights and a bar indicating the usually undisclosed amount of product remaining.

During an average two day Woot-off, Woot's sales typically exceed one million dollars.

Woot Websites

Woot Main Site
Woot-off Trackers and Woot Sites on Wikia

My Favorite Woot Sites (great for Woot-offs):
Semi-deaf has a pop-up with audio when next Woot item is being posted.
The Breretons shows current Woot item and estimated time until the next Woot item to be posted. Great for scheduling meetings and bathtime! ;)

DVD Ripping for iPods, Blackberry, Media Servers

I've had many conversations about ripping DVD's. So, I've decided to write something quickly about it. You can always check this blog: http://bloghill.tiddlyspot.com/#DVD_Ripping for updated, additional info.

F irst thing you'll need is decent ripping software. The following is part of my arsenal:

Software

Mfg.	Software	My Version	Comments
DVDShrink.ORG	DVDShrink	3.2	Easy-to-use, free, copies most discs
SlySoft	AnyDVD	6.3.0.3, as of 1/1/2008	To handle harder copy-protection
Videora	Videora	minimally, version 2.03	Good for batch copying lots of ripped DVD's into iPod format (runs in the background
SlySoft	CloneDVDMobile	1.1.6.0, as of 1/1/2008	Great to convert DVDs or DVD files to iPod, PocketPC, Blackberry format

N ext, you'll need to go through this checklist. If all answers are TRUE, then the ripping exercise should be simple.

Ok. First, let's make sure your DVD is in the proper format:
is it a commercial DVD or was it burned from a DVD TV recorder?
are there VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS directories? (AUDIO_TS can be empty.)
in the VIDEO_TS dir, are there the regular DVD files (.IFO, .VOB, etc.)
BTW, does it play in a regular (, nonrecordable) DVD player? A PC with DVD player software qualifies.
it isn't a DVD from Disney

If all are true, then we can assume the DVD is good.

Try DVDShrink (minimum version 3.2). If you don't have it or can't get via Google. LetMeKnow.
If DVDShrink doesn't work, then use AnyDVD (version 6.3.0.3) and simply copy DVD to a hard drive.
Use a PC DVD player like Sonic CinePlayer (usually free with some pre-loaded PC software bundles or about $29.99) or WinDVD (usually free to try or $59.99 to buy) to play the copied VIDEO_TS.IFO file.
If this works, try DVDShrink on those copied files.
If that fails, try Videora on them.
If that fails, LetMeKnow and we can think of other alternatives.

DVD player software

You can play DVD's on most PC's that have a DVD disc drive.

Usually, the PC comes with a DVD player. If a player isn't installed, you can use a PC DVD player like Sonic CinePlayer (usually free with some pre-loaded PC software bundles or about $29.99) or WinDVD (usually free to try or $59.99 to buy)
