Journey of 3D Glasses: How they lost weight and became lightweight

3D content and 3D glasses both are working always as a complement for each other from starting of 3D content to till now; both are slightly useless without each other, since there is no any satisfactory technology which can give exact 3D images without 3D glasses. So, 3D glasses always have their own significance in the 3D world.

Old 3D glasses

A Few decades back when 3D content was available mostly in static states as graphics, paintings and images etc. In those days normal Anaglyph 3-D Glasses were used for viewing 3-D Comics, Printing and Art etc. The technology of 3D glasses was also simple- In a pair of eyeglasses two filters were used of different colors Red and Cyan. The red lens over the left eye allows only the red part of the anaglyph image through to that eye, while the cyan (blue/green) lens over the right eye allows only the blue and green parts of the image through to that eye. Portions of the image that are red will appear dark through the cyan filter, while portions of colors composed only of green and blue will appear dark through the red filter. Each eye therefore sees only the perspective it is supposed to see. And all the arrangement produces simultaneously 3D content simply.

Decades have passed but the craze of this Anaglyph 3-D Glasses can be seen in watching the 3D content on internet, art galleries, comics, videos etc.

Now days, 3D technology is on its peak, the digital technology of 3D world has changed the shape and scenario of 3D glasses. The present 3D glasses are so technically advanced and produce amazingly 3D content which seems completely alive.3D content is not only present in cinemas  only but also available at our homes in 3D TV. Mainly, there are two types of 3D glasses are prevalent as Active glasses and Passive glasses. Active glasses are more technically complicated
(and as I have warned many times very dangerous to eye health and bad for children) they turn one lens of each eye black while you’re still watching. Whereas passive glasses are more technically advanced, passive glasses are based upon polarization technology which makes these lightweight, trendy and more comfortable for eyes.

New passive Cinema 3D glasses

I wanted to post this brief description of how 3D works as I received many questions about why this 3D is different from the red/blue kind.  So here is a quick and easy way to tell. Don’t buy an active TV it’s that simple if you care about eye health.

More evidence that Active 3D TVs are bad!

All you have to do is read this Samsung admits that active type 3D can be bad for eye health and even cause seizures. Please stay away from those types of TVs!!


Passive 3D or "Cinema 3D" is the best choice its fine for eye health and the glasses are cheap for families. They are made by LG so be safe and buy an LG!

ICE TEA WITH PEACH

Pour one teapot of tea – preferably bergamot – in a saucepan.

On the top of that, add two bashed peaches  juice, a glass of lemon water, a few slices of thin shredded peach and some water depending on how strong you want it.

Add sugar to the mixture as you wish. I mostly use regular, you can try using cane sugar or honey for a more beneficial drink.

At last, put your prepared drink in glass decanters and jars and in the fridge.

When you are serving them, if you add mint leaves on the glasses you would also be making a great presentation, ENJOY it.

Homemade Yogurt for the Kids

Yogurt is a dairy product created by fermenting milk with a Lactobacillus culture. It is also good for your colon health and rich for calcium. My children love it as much as I do, especially when its mixed up with fruit. Yogurt is great because it is one of only a few dairy products that can be consumed as a healthful snack. Here is my recipe to make a homemade yogurt:

Ingredients:

- 8 cups fresh milk

- 1/3 cup powdered milk (this is optional but you’ll need it to make the yogurt thicker)

- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup, optional for sweetened yogurt
- 1/2 cup starter yogurt (yogurt that has been made with active live cultures; this is the friendly bacteria that will turn your milk into yogurt. You can buy it at the grocery and remember, you’ll only need asmall amount and it is in plain flavor.)

Other supplies:

• Sterile quart jars with lids, warmed
• Small cooler (lunch-box size would be good)
• Candy thermometer

Directions:

1.       Heat the milk to 180 degrees in a thick-bottomed, stainless steel pot. This is called pasteurization process that kills any unwanted bacteria in the milk. It also changes the structure of the proteins so that they will be set and not shaped like curds.

2.       Remove from heat and cool it down to 110 degrees. You can make the process faster by filling your sink with cold water and putting the hot milk pot in the water and keep stirring the milk. The temperature will drop quickly, so make sure you check it with the candy thermometer.

3.       Add remaining ingredients and stir well.

4.       Put the mixed milk in a jar to incubate and culture them. Set the lids to the jars and place them in the cooler. Leave the cooler in a warm place where it can remain undisturbed overnight. Fill the cooler with hot water up to the shoulder of the jars. Wait for 10 to 12 hours.

5.       When the yogurt is firm, put it in the refrigerator and let it cool for at least 12-24 hours to get the best texture and the yogurt is ready to be served.

I’d like to add some fresh cut up fruit or jam. But remember one thing, the longer it incubates, the more sour it will be. Check this video out on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTM_tafz3Bg

Healthy snacks for kids

Cheese

The protein in this kid-friendly snack keeps energy levels high until dinnertime. We like to stick salt-free pretzel sticks into cubes of low-fat cheese to make "satellite snacks," but you can also make cheese more interesting to kids by cutting it into fun shapes with a cookie cutter and making kabobs with your favorite fruit.

Healthier Baked Goods

Your child will never guess you're sneaking fruits or vegetables into her diet when you bake them into yummy muffins or breads. Banana bread, zucchini muffins, and carrot bars are a few of our favorites for kids. Our tasty Yam and Jam Muffins contain beta-carotene and potassium from the sweet potatoes, but only you will know.

Whole Grain Cereal

With vitamins, calcium, and fiber, a bowl of enriched whole grain cereal with milk and fruit is a power-packed snack or healthy start to the day. For a fun and flavorful twist, try out cute clusters with yogurt-covered cereal and dried strawberries.

Yogurt

Low-fat yogurt is an excellent source of calcium, and children love it dressed up. To add taste and nutritional value, whip up a yogurt parfait with berries and granola or make a homemade fruity yogurt pop that beats sugary store-bought frozen treats any day.

Eggs

One egg provides a 4-year-old with almost one-third of her protein requirements for the day. Keep a bunch of hard-boiled eggs in the fridge (they last for seven days), or scramble an egg and roll it up in a flour tortilla. Another great idea: our easy breakfast pita that can be made the night before for an on-the-go meal.

active 3D can give you seizures? just be passive for once

21st April 2010 - 3D TV is claimed to be the next big thing in home entertainment, but concerns are being raised about health risks for some people watching the new sets.

There’s a buzz about 3D. 3D films are already proving popular, with Avatar breaking box office records, while Sky is showing premier league football in 3D in some pubs before the 3D service launches for the home viewer.

One TV manufacturer has issued warnings that the 3D images could trigger epileptic seizures or strokes and some doctors agree there are significant risks. However, not everyone agrees.

So, is 3D TV a real danger, or just like our mothers telling us that watching too much old style TV would give us ‘square eyes’?


Samsung has issued a news release through its Australian office warning that its active 3D glasses can be affected by fluorescent lighting and sunlight - and the resulting flickering effect can cause photosensitive seizures and other health risks.


All the more reason not to buy an active 3D TV stay away they are not safe. Buy Cinema 3D, if you worry about your children or family in the slightest.

Cocktail parties

Cocktail parties are a fun way to catch up with old friends, or entertain people from work. And they are so much easier to plan and execute as these parties last for mostly an hour or two, and as the menu has only drinks and appetizers, perhaps some desserts, they do not require a lot of work! The other thing I love about cocktail parties is that they can easily be hosted inside your house, out on a patio or club-house, or you can choose to host a happy-hour at a restaurant or cafe, which can be a great option for someone who is short on time or doesn't need the pain of planning a party. Whatever your incentive, here are a few tips that can help you host a successful cocktail party, and master the art of entertaining!
