Wildlife Conservation Nepal is an organization committed to conservation of our natural heritage. Its different programs are focused on doing so through different mediums and one of such is the Photography Program. This program has been organizing Nature and Wildlife Photography Competition for Amateurs at national level with the support of philanthropic organizations since last five years.

The exhibition “Nature through Lens 4″ is displaying more than 350 pictures of 140 photographers participating in the competition. I would like to invite you to this event which starts from 28 to 31 August 2008 at the Nepal Art Council, Babarmahal.  I am sure that this exhibition will prove immensely beneficial for you.

This event will not only promote amateur photographers but it also raises funds for conservation activities at local level in Kathmandu Valley and support young researchers to carry out study on Urban Wildlife.

The Program is being inaugurated by Her Excellency Ms. Nancy Powell, The Ambassador, and Embassy of United States of America to Kathmandu.

A Young Christian’s Guide to Using Social Network Sites.

What do hundreds of thousands—even millions—of people check daily?
Maybe even several times a day? Their blood sugar? Their bank account? Their attitude? No! They log on to the Internet and check their social network site! Whether it be on Facebook, MySpace, Friendster, hi5, Cyworld, Bebo or any number of other sites, experiencing a part of life through a social network site is a daily routine for millions.

Social network sites have quickly become one of the primary ways young people communicate with each other. Through our personal pages on these sites we share our current mood or our latest digital pictures. We use the sites to exchange thoughts, jokes, blogs, songs and videos.

We let the world know who we are through our personal online profile. We proclaim to the Internet world what we like and dislike, what makes us happy or sad and certainly what makes us unique. These sites can be a great way to communicate with our best friends, reconnect with long lost friends and even meet new people.

Planning to buy a portable keyboard of range between 200$ to 300$. I googled for some a while and found Yamaha PSR-E403 in Yamaha’s official website. This device comes with features such as 155 styles, 32-note polyphony and 504 voices and comes with 61 keys. It also have pro features like Pitch Bend Wheel for authentic playing of guitar and horn sounds, Control Knobs that allow you to have real time control over filters, effects, EQ, tempo and an arpeggio function for techno and synthesizer keyboard playing that can automatically add the playing of notes in rapid succession in ascending and descending fashion.

You can connect this keyboard with your personal computer using USB and you can add more sounds and songs in your internal flash memory. Plus you can even play your songs into the computer or edit them if necessary. PSR-E403 also has 6-track sequencer to record your own music. Sound quality is also good enough with 2-way stereo speaker system, Bass Boost System, Digital Signal Processing (DSP) and Advanced Wave Memory (AWM).

It has lots of other great features like Music Finder, One Touch Setting (OTS), Registration Memory, Performance Assistant Technology, etc. You can easily compose your own songs and give them different digital effects. It has dual and split modes feature also. With dual mode you can layer two voices together - example piano and strings. Or you can use split mode to split the keyboard in two and play bass with the left hand and piano with the right hand for example. Now you can get this portable keyboard for around 200$.

These days I am too much addicted to one song from a new upcoming movie Sano Sansar - People meet. Love happens. The song is well composed with nice lyric and vocal. Lyric is written by Bhupendra Khadka, vocal by Baboo Bogati and composed by Sachin Singh. Movie is a presentation of Quest Entertainment and directed by Alok Nembang. Before this Quest Entertainment has already presented Kagbeni as their first movie. Casts in Sano Sansar are Mahesh Shakya, Jivan Luitel, Namrata Shrestha, Vinay Shrestha, Nir Shah, Arjun Shrestha and Sushila Raimajhi. More details can be found in their official website www.sanosansar.com.np. You can find lyric of the song sano cha gaun below. Enjoy !

sano cha gaun, sano yo shahar, sanai cha sansar x 2

goreto galli, kunai ghumti modma X 2

dobato ani, harek chokma, kohi ta bhetincha
aafantai thanchha, pabitra manle, chaha tyo metincha
jaba afnai aghi, bilai jancha, dooor tyo najar X 2
naya fanko, marcha usko, khojima

sano cha gaun, sano yo shahar, sanai cha sansar
bhugolle chhekna, badal le dhakna, nasakne rahar
goreto galli, kunai ghumti modma X 2
satirahanchan…

anjan muhar, anjan pathamai, hami dui satiyoun
man mutu gasyoun, janinajani, premama batiyoun
anautho nata, hamro jeevanko, banyo tyo rahar x 2
drishya eutai, dui jor, aankhama

sano cha gaun, sano yo shahar, sanai cha sansar
bhugolle chhekna, badal le dhakna, nasakne rahar
goreto galli, kunai ghumti modma X 2
satirahanchan… (jeevan ka prahar) x 4

Again my favourite Don Moen’s song! Enjoy!!

God will make a way
Where there seems to be no way
He works in ways we cannot see
He will make a way for me
He will be my guide
Hold me closely to His side
With love and strength
For each new day
He will make a way
He will make a way

By a roadway in the wilderness
He’ll lead me
And rivers in the desert will I see
Heaven and earth will fade
But His Word will still remain
He will do something new today

These days I am quite more interested in digital music composition. I have tried different music composing softwares like Cakewalk, FL Studio (FruityLoops), etc. Today I am going to write a short about my favourite music creation software FL Studio.

FL Studio, which was known as FruityLoops also, is a fully featured music creation and production software for personal computers. This software produces any style of music by using different and complete set of instrument and studio tools which is included in the package. The user can create complete songs, as well as backing tracks, loops and sizzling beats with the included plugins, sounds and tools . You can save completed songs to WAV, MP3 or MIDI or .ZIP or native project formats (.FLP). FL Studio uses MIDI and DirectSound (internal mixing), 16-bit 44KHz stereo output, and 32-bit floating-point internal mixing. You can get support for VST plug-ins, as well as individual panning, volume, pitch, mix, resonance, and cutoff on each note.

There are more new features added in new version of FL Studio like Slicex, FL Synthmaker, Enhanced Edison WAV editor/recorder and Love Philter. This version (FL Studio 8 ) also includes Slicex drumloop slicing generator plugin, new SynthMaker modular environment, support for MIDI SysEx input and basic MMC functions. If you are also interested to use this interesting software then you can download 10 days trial version of FL Studio from here. (http://www.flstudio.com/documents/download.html)
