Ive been playing with the Nero program I have and burned a DVD that had six short films in it with a menu. But the sound disappeared in 3 of the films. This only happens in Nero if I burn them in DVD shrink no sound problems but I can't create menus that way. Something popped up telling me I needed plug ins or something like that. I just want to be able to do some minor editing (cutting cedits out) and add menus. Any help would be appreciate it. I really would like to get into editing films but I have to admit I find it a bit intimidating.

J.J. Abrams is becoming the next Gene Roddenberry.

Paramount is breathing life into its "Star Trek" franchise by setting "Mission: Impossible III" helmer J.J. Abrams to produce and direct the 11th "Trek" feature, aiming for a 2008 release.

Damon LindelofDamon Lindelof and Bryan Burk, Abrams' producing team from "Lost," also will produce the yet-to-be-titled feature.

Project, to be penned by Abrams and "MI3" scribes Alex Kurtzman and Roberto OrciRoberto Orci, will center on the early days of seminal "Trek" characters James T. Kirk and Mr. Spock, including their first meeting at Starfleet Academy and first outer space mission.

Deal reflects ParPar's bullishness on "MI3," which launches worldwide next weekend, and underlines the goal of Paramount chief Brad Grey and prexyprexy Gail BermanGail Berman to re-energize the pipeline via high-profile tentpoles while revitalizing the Par brand with top-tier talent such as Abrams.

"MI3" is the first pic to be released that's been greenlit by Grey.

"Star Trek" has been Hollywood's most durable performer other than James Bond, spawning 10 features that have grossed more than $1 billion and 726 TV episodes from six series.

Decision to relaunch "Star Trek" comes less than a year after UPNUPN pulled the plug on "Star Trek: Enterprise""Star Trek: Enterprise" amid dismal ratings following a four-season run and four years after "Star Trek: Nemesis""Star Trek: Nemesis" turned in the worst performance of the 10 films with $43 million domestic.

Original series created by Roddenberry launched in 1966 on NBC and ended in 1969.

During the following decade, the original 78 episodes of "Trek" became staples in syndication and helped mobilize the fan base along with conventions, books and merchandise. Paramount released "Star Trek: The Motion Picture" in 1979 and saw domestic grosses hit $82 million. The next three films grossed a combined $263 million domestically, so Paramount started the second TV series, "The Next Generation," in 1987, with Rick Berman and Roddenberry co-exec producing.

Under Sherry Lansing's tenure, Rick Berman had been teamed several years ago with Jordan Kerner and Kerry McCluggage to develop an 11th feature set in the early days of Starfleet Academy.

I'm tired of being nice and getting the short end. My last girlfriend used me all the way. If I'm single the rest of my life so be it. The money I save being single is awesome.

By the way thanks for girl's perspective HLF. You should write a book for helpless singles. Seems like you know your sh*t.


aww she used you? what a f*cking skank-whore BITCH! this is what pisses me off about girls. they treat the nice guys badly and then for the next few years you guys are scared to enter the dating circle cuz of pain caused by some girl who didn't deserve you in the first place. ugh that makes me soo mad!


***************

Not scared HLF. I've got a bitterness towards women that I'll end up taking out on the next girl that comes along. Better of single. Ever relationship I've had is totally one way. I do all the work and the girl just coasts. Sorry, but thats over. I can deal with getting hurt. I'm tired of being used. My ex had a string of bad relationships and I got stuck with damage control and having to rebuild her trust issues. And what did I get? Her telling me after a year that she doesn't have feelings for me. She's probably back to dating assholes because she needs drama. I honestly think most women would rather date a jerk to feel good about themselves than be a with a great guy and feel bad about their own shortcomings.

Rotten Johnny,
I can't disagree with monetary benefits of being single. I've got more money in the bank than a lot of the other people I know.
However, I feel as though there is something missing from my life and money cannot make up for that.

No girl will fill that void. You have to, then find someone. But in the meantime you got money to have fun.

I get the feeling there are a few fans around here. I've been watching Season 2 on DVD. A few slow episodes but overall this is the season that got the ball rolling.

Adding Worf in season 4(?)was probably good for viewers but I thought rehashing the Klingon stuff was a bad idea. Did we really need to see him outcast again. But I did like the addition of General Martok.

I always wondered why the Borg never showed up besides in the pilot.

I've read the books that came out since the show was cancelled overall pretty good. I highly recommend Avatar and Rising Son. I just got Warchild the other day. Hope it makes sense since I skipped The Worlds of DS9 books.

I do have to say that Garek is my favorite character.
