What kind of camera? Tape? Disc? What's the best brand? What about audio? And then once it's recorded, what do you do with it? We will take a look at some of the software available, like Microsoft Movie and others. Are there any websites that help with reviews and/or help?

Then are there any sites you can use to share your masterpiece? Like Google Video, iTunes, Download.Com?

About the Show:
Andrew Boroweic is well-known for his extraordinary eye. If you´re
bored with the ordinary photograph, this is the photography show to
come see.

Boroweic says that the challenge of finding art in photography is
similar to the challenge of finding poetry in language. The art
inheres in how the ordinary is made extraordinary - not because it´s
so different but because it´s often only a little different: just
different enough. Come see what he means in this show.

About the Gallery:
Founded in 2005, the mission of Gallery 324 is to showcase primarily
Ohio artists. Located in the Galleria at Erieview on the first floor,
near the Food Court, Gallery 324 is operated by Marcus Bales, a
Cleveland glass artist, in conjunction with Gary Roberts, a Cleveland
furniture designer.

Recycling the organic waste of a household into compost allows us to return badly needed organic matter to the soil. In this way, we participate in nature's cycle, and cut down on garbage going into burgeoning landfills.  Worm composting is a method for recycling food waste into a rich, dark, earth-smelling soil conditioner. The great advantage of worm composting is that this can be done indoors and outdoors, thus allowing year round composting. It also provides apartment dwellers with a means of composting.  Contact Tori Mills at 216-321-5935, x234 to register or go to www.shakerlakes.org to order your composter.

John Osher never went to class on a sunny day. In fact, he struggled through seven years of undergraduate work at three separate universities before graduating from Boston University with a degree in Psychology. John has never been hired to work for any company, nor has he ever been elected or appointed to any office of any kind. And yet, he has proven to be one of America's most successful entrepreneurs over the past twenty years. He did it simply by short circuiting the system, by starting all of his own businesses and appointing himself President since the age of five. Now that he is older, he prefers to appoint himself Chairman.
