"How To Sync Multiple Shared Google Calendars On Windows 8 By Brian. Filed in How-To Guides Windows 8 now syncs with a Microsoft account (Outlook, Hotmail, MSN) and retrieves all your contacts, email and also your calendar information from it. If, however, you have most of your schedules and calendar information on a Google account, you can opt to add that account to the Calendar app instead. If you have more than one Google account, particularly those that are shared, after adding your Google calendar to Windows 8, you might notice that only the main account calendar is synced, while the shared ones are not."

(Those with little or no prior programming experience should try the "Python: Introduction for Absolute Beginners" course instead.) The aim of this course is to provide sufficient familiarity with Python that attendees can attend any of our more advanced Python courses and easily follow any of the widely available Python tutorials on the more complex aspects of the language."

"One of the biggest issues concerning UHD/4K is how it will be encoded/compressed and what bit rate will be required to convey a high-quality image. As I've written before, everyone at NAB 2014 seems to have settled on H.265 (aka HEVC or High-Efficiency Video Coding) as the codec of choice for UHD/4K. HEVC is said to offer up to 50 percent greater efficiency than H.264 (aka AVC or Advanced Video Coding), which is often used for high-def content, and even greater gains in efficiency over MPEG-2.   So I was particularly interested in a presentation called "Bit Rate Requirements for HEVC: Comparing H.265, H.264, and MPEG-2" by John Pallett, Director of Product Marketing for Enterprise Products at Telestream, a company that provides video capture, encoding, transcoding, and network-based delivery. The testing he discussed was based on SD and HD content, not UHD, but the findings should apply similarly."

"first glance, the bright red shipping container that sits by the side of the road in a slum outside Johannesburg doesn't look like something that could transform hundreds of lives. Two sliding doors open to reveal a small shop counter, behind which sit rows of canned food, toilet paper, cooking oil, and first-aid supplies. Solar panels on the roof power wireless Internet and a television, for the occasional soccer game. And two faucets dispense free purified drinking water to anyone who wants it."
