The Topfield Video files are recorded in the MPEG2 TS (transport stream) format. To compound this, if you want to edit the files you record, most editing software including Sony Vegas Pro won't handle this format. I have found that the best sol...

How to Make Beer - Part 1
Ingredients If you are a beginner, or just want to play it safe, start with a good kit. I love Coopers Kits, as you can tell. For your initial brews, choose a kit plus 500 grams of light malt. Tip 1: Never use dextrose or cane sugar - always use malt. Light malt (powdered or liquid) is a good start, but just remember that malt ferments less than dextrose, so you may want to work on about 25% more than the ...
