With the multimedia capabilities of the Palm we can play DVD and videos on Palm Pre 3.1-inch touch screen, but before transfer the video to Palm Pre we have to convert the DVD and video to Palm format.

Palm Pre supported media formats:
Audio Formats: MP3, AAC, AAC+, AMR, QCELP, WAV;
Video Formats: MPEG-4, H.263, H.264;

This tutorial will guide you through the entire process using a DVD/Video to Palm Converter Pro. We took the copy of Pixar’s “A Bug’s Life” and converted the DVD for use on the Palm Pre. The processing time depends on your computer’s processor and the length of your DVD. “A Bug’s Life” is 1 hour and 34 minutes. On my computer, the entire process took roughly 30 minutes from start to finish. Since the Palm Pre supports iTunes, we were able add the converted video to iTunes and then sync with the Pre. And this guide work for all series of Palm including Palm Pre, Palm Centro, Palm Treo, etc.

Step1. Download and install Video Converter Pro (here is the directly download link, about 9M). This software is an all-in-one converter that can rip protected DVD movie and convert video to MP4 video for Palm.

Step2: Load your DVD or videos into Video Converter Pro. Here we can load three kinds of DVD’s:
1. DVD disc, Insert your DVD into your computer CD-Rom, click ‘Load DVD‘ to import it.
2. DVD ISO image, you can amount your ISO files in the daemon tools and then click ‘Load ISO file‘ to import it. No other DVD Converter can convert ISO file except this one.
3. DVD folder, sometimes you may store the DVD folder in your hard drive, it contains the ‘Video_TS’ and ‘Audio_TS’ folders. You can load it by clicking the ‘load DVD folders‘.
4. For regular video files, you can drag and drop them into the software directly.

Step3: Select Profile, Subtitle, Audio, output directory setting
After you load DVD or video into the software, click the Profile drop-down list to select ‘Palm Pre Video MPEG-4 (*.mp4)’ as output format.

Regular DVD movies usually have several subtitles such as English, French, German, etc. You can select one you prefer. You can also delete the subtitle by selecting ‘No Subtitle’. Selecting Audio is the same. For more advanced settings, you can open the setting panel by clicking ‘Settings’.

Step4: After all things done, click the ‘Start’ to begin the conversion. When the conversion is completed, click ‘find target’ to locate the converted DVD or video file on your computer.

Step5: If you use iTunes, simply drag the resulting file into iTunes. Select the ‘Movies’ tab and select ‘Sync movies’. I also selected the option to only bring my preferred movies and then checked BUGSLIFE. When the sync completes, eject the Palm Pre from your computer.

Step 6: Select the Application Launcher and open up the Videos application. Select your movie and it will start to play immediately. You’ve now successfully converted your DVD movie and video for use on the Palm Pre. Enjoy your movies on your Palm Pre!

You should always try something before you knock it. Phone psychic readings are no exception, they could actually improve your life. Where is the harm in trying one for free? If your skepticism is well founded, you can mock away, but on the other hand, it might just change the way you view the world!

Yes there are scammers out there but they are quite easy to pick out. By not giving the psychic any personal information about yourself during a reading and using your own judgment, you will see whether the advice they offer makes sense to you. Take some time to stew it over and see if anything clicks into place.

Don’t whatever you do, do a search on the Internet for free psychics. No psychic would want to give all their advice away for free in one sitting. What you need to look for is psychics, who are willing to give an initial three minute psychic reading for free, so you can decide whether you want to continue with the call, if the information provided is intriguing enough.

The world we live in gets more complicated by the day. Many questions we want answered flare up everyday like, ‘Is this all there is to life?’, ‘Am I in the right career?’ and ‘Will I ever find love?’ to name a few. These are not really questions we want to ask our friends down the pub, but a free phone psychic reading could well help.

I really would recommend that everyone tries a free phone psychic reading, as there really is nothing to lose, only an answer to a question. By completing a free three minute psychic phone reading, you can see whether the psychic is going in the right direction with an answer to your question. If you are intrigued by what you hear, you can always continue the call, but it’s your choice.

Please note, that as the free psychic readings are generally only for three minutes, they will not be too in depth. It is likely the psychic will only be able to scrape the surface in that time. However, if you have found a good psychic, you will be able to take that information and see that it is relevant to you.

In depth readings will cost money but there are places where you can get a decent 10 minute reading for $1.99, which is almost as good as trying a phone psychic reading for free.

When you have found a site of live phone psychics, that you think you will like, you will see that each psychic will gave information about themselves. Just a couple of bits of advice - stay away from the one that say they are 100% accurate, or say they are the best, and check to see if they are certified or licensed.

Take a look at the ratings that these phone psychics have as well. Read some, get a feel for that psychic - are they right for you? So use all the information available to you, to help you decide which psychic would be best for you. Also take into consideration the type of question you want to ask.

So after reading this article, please do try a free phone psychic reading, don’t write them off without trying. Phone psychic readings really could become an invaluable channel of advice for you. Don’t dismiss it.

If you are considering using a phone psychic reading, it’s only fair that you get the chance to ask one free question, before committing to pay for the reading. This actually makes the process fairer on you and the psychic as well.

You will get the chance to ask something that will prove the psychic’s skills before the meter starts ticking. You have to be aware you won’t get an in depth consultation in 3 minutes, which is often the time given for free calls, but it is time enough to see if there is a connection there with the psychic, before making the decision on whether to continue or not. You will be able to test whether the psychic is being accurate and genuine without spending a dime.

A free phone psychic reading really does benefit both parties. The free offer will benefit the psychic, as they will attract a high number of calls because of this promotion, and more chances to prove themselves. The word ‘free’ is a proven puller, attracting people who just want to try a phone psychic reading out of curiosity - a no risk offer that could result in answers to pressing question. I am going to suggest in a moment, what the best type of question to ask, on your free phone psychic reading actually is.

I would advise not asking hard, specific or complex questions on your free phone psychic reading, as 3 minutes is really not enough time to cover these types of questions satisfactorily, and for your phone psychic to prove themselves. Your psychic will be be under pressure and may not perform to their best ability, especially if you are too confrontational. You can think about asking more complex questions, when you find a psychic that you are more than happy with.

You need to ask your psychic on your free phone psychic reading - what is the general sense they get about you? You must not give too much away and listen intently to what the psychic is telling you. This general question allows you to see whether the psychic builds a good picture of you, and to judge whether what they say rings true. If the psychic asks you a few yes or no questions, then oblige, as this allows the psychic to get a good feel for you.

Occasionally, you may might find that the psychic doesn’t get a good, true picture of you and everything they say is way off course. However, it is far more likely, due the the nature of psychic ability that your reading will have some truth in there, help you make a decision or understand yourself more.

If you are really lucky (or do a bit of additional research on each psychic available on the phone psychic reading site) you could expect to be blown away in moments with information that cannot be guessed, or special circumstances that would only apply to you. This is as good as it gets and the feeling is nothing short of amazing.

For the sceptic, a free psychic phone reading is ideal. You can ask a question, before committing to pay for a full reading. You get to sample a reading and the psychic can convince you of their abilities.

This way you can ask a question that will prove your psychic’s skills one way or another, before you have think about paying. There is only so much information you can hear in 3 minutes, a common time limit given to free calls, but it is really enough time to see if you connect with your psychic, before risking a cent. You will be given the opportunity to see whether what the psychic is saying is genuine or accurate.

Free phone psychic readings really do offer benefits to the psychic, as free psychic phonecalls attract a high volume of calls and therefore plenty of opportunities for the psychic to prove their abilities. The ‘free factor’ will attract people who will phone a psychic out of curiosity- to see if there really is something in it. In a moment, I am going to suggest the best kind of question that you should ask on your free phone psychic reading.

I would advise not to ask specific, complex or hard questions in your free time, as soon as the phone psychic reading begins. Yes you want the psychic to prove themselves but how on earth can a complex question be answered satisfactorily in three minutes, especially if you are being too confrontational and the psychic is under pressure? No, save that for later when you know your psychic a little better!

The best thing you can ask your psychic on your free phone psychic reading is - what do they sense about you generally? Don’t give too much away, listen to what the psychic has too say to see if they can create a good picture of you that resonates with you as well. You may need to say yes or no a couple of times for the psychic to get a feel for you.

Sometimes there will be instances where the psychic doesn’t ‘get’ you and what they say will be way off course, but it is far more common due to the nature of psychic phenomena that your phone psychic reading will ring true and help you make decisions.

In some cases, you really can be blown away by the information given in these three free minutes, being told information the psychic couldn’t possibly have known, or special circumstances only applicable to you. You can increase the chances of this happening to you, by doing a little reading up on the psychics available on the phone psychic reading sites, and then picking one you feel intuitively atttacted to. This is the best way to get the most out of your free psychic reading.

James Ray grew up with a very religious background. He wasn’t a typical child who enjoyed sports or social events, but rather he enjoyed reading about all of the religions of the world. As the son of a Protestant minister, James Ray was well grounded in many of the traditional Christian beliefs, but his father encouraged him to have an open mind, and he always supported the other religious studies James pursued.

In high school, James Ray began studying Buddhism, Shirley MacLaine, philosophy, and even quantum physics in an attempt to understand how the universe works. He uses much of what he learned back then to teach people today. He encourages people to become students rather than seekers. A student is someone with a great deal of inner discipline who dives deeply into a subject. A seeker dabbles in a bit of everything.

James Ray hasn’t always worked in the religious realm. For a number of years, he was successful in corporate America as one of AT&T’s top sales managers. In fact, he was in charge of AT&T’s School of Business in which he trained people how to think, feel, and act differently.

In 1992, James Ray left AT&T to start his own business. He started out doing corporate consulting and training before later becoming a spiritual teacher. James believed that by training the people within a corporation, they could change the overall results of the corporation.

James Ray started a program called Harmonic Wealth as a way to spiritually connect people with their passions. Harmonic Wealth isn’t about money as the name may imply, but rather it’s about spiritual balance and fulfillment. No one can be happy with money alone. Even rich people feel the burden of financial insecurity. Through the Harmonic Wealth program, James teaches five key areas of balance.

The five key areas, or pillars, of life that must be balanced to achieve happiness are financial, relational, mental, physical, and spiritual. When you find your passion in life, you’ll incorporate it into the five pillars of your life, and soon your life will be on fire.

The reason James Ray feels that the five pillars must be balanced is that each one depends on the others. You can’t have a loving relationship with your spouse if you constantly argue over money. You can’t perform your best at work if your physical body is out of shape. This is why Harmonic Wealth means you can’t simply be happy with having money.

James Ray has made appearances on the Oprah Winfrey show and Larry King Live. He was also in the movie “The Secret,” which is in many ways similar to his Harmonic Wealth program. Balance is required in Harmonic wealth, and you have to go “three for three” with The Secret through focus of your thoughts, feelings, and actions. Find a successful balance, and find a successful life!
