As It Is
See it as it is.
Make it as it should be.
See that rock that fell from the sky? That's the one that hit me.

I just spent the last day trying to figure out why my Encore CS4 didn’t have any library content. I also found out the library folder was missing entirely from the Adobe Encore folder in the install.
I’m using the boxed DVD set, not the download. I tried reinstalling Encore a few times already; also looked for a “Encore Library Content” to install but there wasn’t such an option.
After digging through the discs a bit, I finally found a folder called Premiere Pro Content. Inside is another folder called “Adobe Encore CS4 Functional Content”. Installed this and it fixed the issue. I’m not sure why it wasn’t part of the original setup/install and had to be put in this way. I’m just hoping this helps anyone else that might be stumped about this.

and then there are those you can’t fool because they can’t see you at all.
So I was looking for a way to embed stock charts into posts for SMF Forums, probably via bbcode or tags. I checked Google all morning and couldn’t find it though. If it exists, please redirect me because I’m sure it’ll be much better than my makeshift solution.
In the meantime, I modified my forums to use a tag called [schart]. When someone types [schart]SYMBOL[/schart], it shows the stock chart in its place.
The editing isn’t complicated, but you need another site to embed from. Right now, I’m using Wikinvest, but it’s a bit slow and heavy (it’s interactive and flash, fancy stuff). If anyone knows a good, fast-loading static one, it’d be nice to know.
For the code,…[More]
You often see movies or books about people who can never die, but usually they also heal super fast from any wound or injury. Just a thought on my end, but what if you can never die, but you heal at a normal rate?
The scary part about this is that the normal person can relate since no fast healing is involved. The person in the character is essentially still conscious no matter what happens. What’s to say this doesn’t occur in real life? Obviously you can’t heal from everything or live forever, but what’s to say your consciousness doesn’t continue drift along out there?
It probably wouldn’t work that well as a film because you can’t show the inside of someone’s mind (supposing you take a first person perspective). From an outside observer though, that might work. Ideally, a book would work better so you can see the main character’s thoughts.
