Over the last couple of years, the cable service has become an increasingly irrelevant part of my life. Television shows that were once exclusive to subscribers are now available freely via streaming services such as Rogers on Demand and CTV.ca. Even major broadcasts such as the World Cup and Olympics have found their way online at an impressive 720p quality. As a result of this, I decided it was time to make the ultimate move and completely cancel my $28.99 basic monthly package. Instead, I built a Home Theatre PC (Shown in the video above) capable of handling all my media needs. In the guide below, I will outline some steps I took to creating my ultimate HTPC.
The next game in Bethesda’s flagship series, the Elder Scrolls, has been officially announced, with a release date of 11/11/11. All we have to go by at this point is a minute-and-a-half trailer, a animated wall-mural of sorts which depicts a series of events following the events of the Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. This solidifies the previous official statement that this new installment would be a sequel to the last, a first for the Elder Scrolls series.
Twenty to thirty percent of people have nearsightedness, officially called myopia, which is a condition in which the eye cannot resolve distant objects clearly. The light rays entering the eye are supposed to converge in a focal point directly on the retina in a normal eye, but find themselves converging a varying distance in front of it, leading to blurriness. This is caused by a physical lengthening of the eye, such that the myopic eye is no longer round but oval-shaped. Before we delve into any of the science, let’s take a look at some good old-fashioned statistics.
