File Extension PSD

Ok, the next file extension I am discussing is the File Extension PSD. It is an Adobe Photoshop Image that is layered. The layers enable an illustration to be built with individual graphic elements that can be moved over and over to obtain a desired result. I am sure almost everyone has heard of Adobe Photoshop. I have used several different programs for use in photo editing and the PSD format is one of the main formats of Photoshop and it is popular because it can be read by Macintosh and Windows computers.

File Extension PSD, as a file designated to PhotoShop, takes up less memory space than TIFF files that are uncompressed. Image editors that have the ability to read file extension PSD are Adobe PhotoShop, Corel PhotoPaint as well as Corel PhotoPaint Pro and Ulead PhotoImpact. PSD is the default, and the only file format, besides the Large Document Format (PSB), that supports most Photoshop features. So, for anyone that does any kind of photo or image editing, the PSD format is a great one to use, if you can. Enjoy!

My baby girl!

As most of you may know, we finally had our baby girl 3 weeks ago. Her name is Alexha Josilee Finney and she was 8lb's 2.8oz, 18 3/4 inches long and she has alot of hair! Our son Josh loves to tickle her feet too, haha. We have been slowly adjusting to life here at home with another member to our little family. Things have been going well too as both mama and baby are doing good. Sheila is getting around alot better now that she isn't hurting so much. I truly love her strength and I know that having another baby isn't easy, but she is handling it very well. I am glad too that Josh isn't jealous of her, as that helps us alot. He is a happy big brother! More post's coming soon, so stay tuned!! Cya online.......

File Extension KML

Hello all! Are you ready for another File Extension? Yeah, I thought so. Ok, here it is. Today, we will learn about File extension KML. KML is most commonly used to refer to a Keyhole Markup Language file. KML files are primarily used to store geographical information in a standard XML format which is used by Google Earth.

Keyhole Markup Language was originally created by a software company called Keyhole Inc for use with Keyhole Earth Viewer, which later became Google Earth. The file extension KML format was developed specifically to store geographical information and annotations which could be overlaid on maps. KML files contain a longitude and latitude as well as place markers, polygon shapes, images and text which can be used to illustrate or label a specific place or area on a map. Additional information, such as camera angle and altitude as well as linked textured 3D objects can also be stored for use with 3D earth browsing software. KML files allow developers to create customized layers of information which can be overlaid on existing maps for illustration or abstraction purposes.

File extension KML has been an open standard for use in geographical browsers, and is currently used by a number of websites and applications including Google Earth, Google Maps, Microsoft Virtual Earth, Earths Ector GIS and Geomedia among others. Just in case you were wondering, XML is a document creation language developed to replace HTML and provide more structure to documents and we all know HTML is a language for creating web pages. So, there you have it. Hope you enjoyed yet another File Extension that you may not have heard of before.

Robo-Surgeon

Two surgeons in a Paris hospital have performed the first successful open-heart surgery in year 1999 using a computer-controlled robot, reports the French newspaper Le Figaro. Six operations were performed, including a coronary bypass. The method involves operating through a one-and-a-half-inch [4 cm] incision. Sitting at a console several feet from the patient, the surgeons look inside the patient’s body by means of a camera and use two joysticks to direct the robot’s arm movements. Because the computer reduces the surgeons’ movements by three to five times, the surgery is more precise and less invasive. Another advantage is that the patient experiences less pain during recovery. Now adays medical procedures are getting more and more high tech and wide spread. We will continuously see more discoveries about our technology today and in the future.

File Extension AMR...

Ok, the last file extension I am curious about and discussing is the File Extension AMR. This is another one I had no idea about, so I did some research on it is short for Adaptive Multi-Rate and is a patented audio compression optimized for speech encoding. File Extension AMR is also a file format for storing spoken audio using the AMR codec. Many modern mobile telephone handsets will allow you to store short recordings in the AMR format. Programs exist to convert between this and other formats such as MP3, although it should be remembered that AMR is a speech format and is unlikely to give ideal results for other audio like music.

It is a little technical, but the usage of AMR requires optimized link adaptation that selects the best codec mode to meet the local radio channel and capacity requirements. If the radio conditions are bad, source coding is reduced and channel coding is increased. This improves the quality and robustness of the network connection while sacrificing some voice clarity. The new intelligent system allows the network operator to prioritize capacity or quality per station. AMR was adopted as the standard speech codec by 3GPP, which I already mentioned a little.
So, there is a little more file extension information for you. More to come later, enjoy!!

The File Extension 3g2

Ok Their is another file extension I will talk about it's the File Extension 3g2. If you are like me, you probably haven't heard of this one before. I was really curious when I saw it. I had to clue what it was for. 3GP or File Extension 3g2 is a simplified version of the MP4 format, designed to accommodate cell phones. There are two different standards for this format:

• 3GPP (for GSM-based Phones, may have filename extension .3gp)
• 3GPP2 (for CDMA-based Phones, may have filename extension .3g2)

3GP or File Extension 3g2 is a usually for use on 3G cell phones but can also be played on some 2G and 4G phones. When transferred to a computer, 3GP movies can be viewed on Linux, Mac and Windows with Media Player RealPlayer or QuickTime. Some cell phones use the .mp4 extension for 3GP video.

Well, I hope this helps a little and gives you a little info about this file type. A lot more cell phones are 3G now, so you will probably see it in the future. Enjoy!!

Anyways, the File Extension Mp4 is generally used to store and replay digital audio and video streams, mainly used in streaming content over the Internet.

File Extension Mp4 or MPEG-4 is short for Moving Picture Expert Group-4. There are all sorts of ways to enjoy the benefits of MP4. First, you can enjoy all sorts of short movies, professional and amateur, thanks to the use of this format. You can also often save these short movies to your hard drive, and share them with others. Some sites that make use of this streaming application also make it possible for you to send a copy of the movie short through email and directly to a friend or acquaintance.

Mp4's are around to stay it seems and are widely used on the internet and on a lot of computers, so now you now what it's for. I hope it helps.

Personal Update

Hello all! I hope everyone is doing fine. As you may know, I am preparing to be a father again. We only have a week or two to go, maybe less, who knows!! Sheila has a doctors appointment tomorrow and an ultrasound and if the doctor isn't happy with what he sees, he may schedule her for tomorrow or one day this week. It's getting pretty exciting and scary at the same time as we don't know what to expect. We are hoping for the best and have alot of support from family and friends, so we are truly blessed to have such people in our lives.

We have been getting my son Joshua's new room done too. My sister painted his room light green on the bottom with a sky blue above it and on the ceiling. It also has a wallpaper border where the 2 colors meet. It's little baby animals like zebras, tigers, monkeys, etc. It looks really cute. Should last him several years to come. I hope everyone, enjoys my little bits of knowledge and little notes. Take care!!

Shop for Electronics?

Hello everyone! In case you guys love to shop for little gadgets and such like me, you'll want to check out SHOP.com. They are having a sale on their gadgets like MP3 players, memory cards, game consoles, GPS receivers, laptops and digital cameras. I have 3 favorites of these. One is the mp3 player, because who doesn't like to carry music around with them on a small little music player. I remember the days when we had to carry a big radio around to play our music on. Now they have these small digital players that can hold a large amount of songs. So shop MP3 Players now!

My 2nd is the GPS receiver. For those of you who don't know what this are, it is basically small device that locates and tells the computer where in the world that you are. It is great for driving somewhere because it tells you what street you are on and in case you need directions, how to get there, turn by turn. Very cool indeed!

My 3rd choice would have to be the digital camera. I know everyone these days has a camera and chances are it is a digital one. Remember the old film style ones? The ones you had to advance after each picture and then have the roll developed. Now all you do is use a little SD card memory card that plugs right in. Most of the DC cards are big enough to hold hundreds of photos. Can't do that with the old style ones. Also, if you take a bad picture, just erase it and take another. No wasted film!! They have huge selection of digital camera sale right now and you can choose the brands you like.

Do yourself a favor and check them out to see what they've got. You'll be glad you did. Because you can really save bucks of money up to 75% off on Electronics Clearance Sale today.

CJ Component Products LLC

I found an interesting site today while browsing around. It's called CJ Component Products, LLC at cjcomponents.com. They have all sorts of things there that are used in the Army and such. Here in Tullahoma, we have a base and they do a lot of testing and things. I found it interesting because of the handsets and things they have, that are really made well and even used by the Army. Here are a few that I found interesting.

The first is the H60/PT Handset, which is just the standard, tough, repairable handset used on telephone and radio communication systems. It is designed for extreme environmental conditions which is great, because you can use it anywhere.

The second one is the Crypto Handset which I thought was really cool, because it Encrypts the signal, which basically means that it scramble's the signal so nobody can intercept it.

The last one is the group of Tactical Handset's, which includes the H60/PT. They have several models to choose from. Each is a little different. Several are waterproof and they are all battle field proven, so that means that they can take a beating. They are also repairable which is great just it case something happens to it and some have a wider frequency response range.

So, pretty much, they have just about any kind of handset you would need, if you happened to be looking for one thats built tough and fully repairable. Take a look and see what they got.
