2011-07-14
LA JOLLA, CA, July 14, 2011 (Press-News.org) NewBlue, Inc., the fastest growing integrated video and audio effects provider, today introduced the fifth edition of its best-selling Video Essentials series, NewBlue Video Essentials V. NewBlue Video Essentials V, offers over 100 presets in 10 distinct effects designed for producing professional quality results with minimum effort, saving time, energy, and accelerating productivity. NewBlue Video Essentials V provides advanced editing techniques including Progressive Stretch, Background Generator, Outline, Selective Focus, Selective Tint, Color Fixer Pro, ViewFinder, Old TV, Selective Color and Alpha Processor. Each video plugin benefits from NewBlue's innovative approach to making technology powerful, yet accessible.

Akin to NewBlue's entire line of NewBlueFX video effects plugins, NewBlue Video Essentials V integrates seamlessly into Adobe After Effects, Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe Premiere Elements, , Apple Final Cut Pro, Apple Final Cut Express, Avid Media Composer, Avid NewsCutter, Avid Studio, Avid Symphony, Avid Xpress, Corel VideoStudio, MAGIX Movie Edit Pro, MAGIX Video Deluxe, MAGIX Video Pro, Pinnacle Studio, Sony Vegas Pro, Sony Vegas Movie Studio and Grass Valley EDIUS.

Says Todor J. Fay, president and CTO,

"Video Essentials V offers less work yet remarkable results. Whether you're magnifying and altering an image into a backdrop or creating a refined old TV look, Video Essentials V empowers editors to create inventive looks minus the tedious tasking."

Video Essentials V includes the following powerful filters, all with a number of preset configurations:

- Progressive Stretch, which takes a 4:3 (standard definition) video clip and stretches it nicely in a widescreen format with optional cropping. Now it's easy to cut to standard definition shots without ugly black side bars or sacrificing part of the image.
- Background Generator, which magnifies and alters your video image to turn it into a beautiful backdrop, complete with perpetual panning motion.
- Outline, which adds a colored outline to text, chromakey, or other visuals with transparent borders. Create cut-out paper looks, give your titles an edge glow, and more.
- Selective Focus, which blurs the image outside an arbitrarily shaped area. Use Selective Focus to mimic a shallow depth of field or call attention to a region in the image.
- Selective Tint, which applies sophisticated tint algorithms to an area inside and outside an arbitrary user defined region in the picture. Also control the gradient crossfade between regions and masking behavior, to pinpoint what gets tinted.
- Color Fixer Pro, which provides the same quick and easy technique to fix color balance as Color Fixer Plus, while respecting broadcast-safe color values. Set the color balance, adjust the saturation, brightness, film gamma, and preserve blacks and whites to quickly get the look you want in one pass.
- ViewFinder, which simulates a video camera viewfinder.
- Old TV, which creates one of the most sophisticated old TV looks we've ever seen. Using chroma, tint, saturation, brightness, contrast and ghosting you can create a nostalgic look and a lot more.
- Selective Color, which creates a stunning look by isolating a narrow range of colors within your clip- leaving everything else gray.
- Alpha Processor, which takes the alpha channel of your video and processes it in useful ways, including inverting, blurring and adjusting its width.

NewBlue Video Essentials V is available directly from NewBlue at www.newbluefx.com/buy.html for $99.95. A fully functional trial version of Video Essentials V (along with all NewBlue plugins) is also available for download.

PSA test for men could get a second life for breast cancer in women

2011-07-14
The widely known PSA blood test for prostate cancer in men may get a second life as a much-needed new test for breast cancer, the most common form of cancer in women worldwide, scientists are reporting in a new study in the ACS journal Analytical Chemistry. Chien Chou and colleagues say that the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) measured in the test also is a potential biomarker of breast cancer in women. However, levels of PSA in healthy women are usually so small that only ultrasensitive tests can measure them. To improve PSA detection in women, the researchers built ...

New method for making human-based gelatin

2011-07-14
Scientists are reporting development of a new approach for producing large quantities of human-derived gelatin that could become a substitute for some of the 300,000 tons of animal-based gelatin produced annually for gelatin-type desserts, marshmallows, candy and innumerable other products. Their study appears in ACS's Journal of Agriculture and Food Chemistry. Jinchun Chen and colleagues explain that animal-based gelatin, which is made most often from the bones and skin of cows and pigs, may carry a risk of infectious diseases such as "Mad Cow" disease and could provoke ...

The unsolved mystery of kava toxicity

2011-07-14
A major new review of scientific knowledge on kava — a plant used to make dietary supplements and a trendy drink with calming effects — has left unsolved the mystery of why Pacific Island people can consume it safely, while people in the United States, Europe, and other Western cultures sometimes experience toxic effects. The article appears in ACS' journal Chemical Research in Toxicology. Line Olsen and colleagues point out that for centuries, people of the Pacific Islands have safely consumed a beverage made from crushed kava roots. Kava'scalming effects made it popular ...

Health-care model improves diabetes outcomes, health

2011-07-14
A health-care delivery model called patient-centered medical home (PCMH) increased the percentage of diabetes patients who achieved goals that reduced their sickness and death rates, according to health researchers. Pennsylvania leads the nation in implementing this new care model that promises to improve health and reduce costs of care. PCMH is based on the chronic-care model (CCM) of care, which attempts to shift health-care delivery from a reactive approach to a focus on long-term problems. PCMH incorporates CCM and provides comprehensive primary care coordinated ...

First study into GM Atlantic salmon mating reveals danger of escape to wild gene pool

2011-07-14
If genetically modified Atlantic salmon were to escape from captivity they could succeed in breeding and passing their genes into the wild, Canadian researchers have found. Their research, published in Evolutionary Applications, explores the potential reproductive implications of GM salmon as they are considered for commercial farming. "The use of growth-enhancing transgenic technologies has long been of interest to the aquaculture industry and now genetically modified Atlantic salmon is one of the first species to be considered for commercial farming. Yet, little is ...

Chile is more dangerous for Argentina than vice versa

Chile is more dangerous for Argentina than vice versa
2011-07-14
Concepción/Halle (Saale)/Prague/Sydney • Invasive plant species in Chile pose a higher threat to its neighbour, Argentina, than vice versa. This was concluded by scientists from the University of Concepción in Chile and the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research (UFZ) after analysing the flora of both countries. In particular, 22 non-native species which occur in Chile on connecting roads leading to Argentina present a high risk according to the researchers, writing in the journal Biological Invasions. Trade between Chile and Argentina mainly takes place by road. ...

WSO2 Summer School Features Free Class on WSO2 Stratos Approach to PaaS for Enabling an Enterprise SOA in the Cloud

WSO2 Summer School Features Free Class on WSO2 Stratos Approach to PaaS for Enabling an Enterprise SOA in the Cloud
2011-07-14
Platform-as-a-service (PaaS) provides a flexible and cost-effective means of extending an enterprise service-oriented architecture (SOA) to the cloud. However, not all PaaS offerings are the same. Some only serve narrow needs--for example focusing solely on integration or application development. Others take a proprietary approach that can make migrating from the PaaS prohibitively difficult and costly. By contrast, WSO2 has extended its entire enterprise middleware platform to the cloud with WSO2 Stratos (http://wso2.com/cloud/stratos?071411p). The 100% open source WSO2 ...
