President's Message
by Michael Donner, PhD
The end of the old and the approach of the new year is for me a time for pause and reflection. Magazines and websites post their top 10 and "best of" lists and many people are thinking about their New Years resolutions. As I reflect on the year, I find myself thinking a great deal about what we have gained and especially who we have lost.
Just this month, SFCP lost three members, Graeme Hanson, Samuel Marty and Robert Wallerstein. Each had been involved in SFCP in vary-ing ways, serving us and psychoanalysis through leadership, teaching, their intellect, leadership, teaching, and inspiration. Robert Wallerstein was an internationally renowned figure who inspired so many of us to seek the "Common Ground" of psychoanalysis, encouraging us to move away from theoretical isolation and consider what we share. Known and beloved for his wisdom, judgment and scholarship, his passing is a loss to so many in our field.

CGI Pharma to be sold to Calif. firm for $120M
- Michelle Lang
CGI Pharmaceuticals Inc., a small-molecule-focused biotech in Branford, Conn., has signed a deal to be acquired by Gilead Sciences Inc. for up to $120 million. The buyout is planned to close in the third quarter of 2010, when CGI will operate as a subsidiary of Gilead.
The $120 million acquisition fee consists mainly of upfront payments, with the remaining pay coming through clinical development milestones.
Founded in 2000 through research at Yale University, CGI Pharmaceuticals develops small molecule kinase inhibitors that could treat rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory diseases. The company is backed by MPM Capital, Flagship Ventures, Vector Fund Management, Coastview Capital, Vantage Point Venture Partners, Lilly BioVentures, RiverVest Venture Partners, CHL Medical Partners, Connecticut Innovations, Oxford Bioscience Partners, and Emerging Technology Partners.
Gilead Sciences (Nasdaq: GILD), located in Foster City, Calif., develops "innovative therapeutics in areas of unmet medical need," according to a news release today from the two companies.

Her Sensuous Image
A screen I face
It beckons me
To enter a forbidden zone
Where your image waits
I find myself unable
To refuse the temptation
That lurks within
I am frozen
In a time warp
With no dimension
For me to freely maneuver.
I am drawn in
Like a magnet
I feel stirring
Within my loins
As never before
An occurrence caused
By you,
Merely being you.
The silence
That surrounds me
Is deafening
The uncreated poetry
Speaks not to me
It's content
Are words yet unborn
Within the secured sanctity
Of my present sanity.
Once my eyes meet
The dark sensuousness
Of yours
I am doomed
Frozen at awe
Allowing the loveliness
Of your image
To slowly sink in
I marvel at the beauty
Of your gentle smile
My knees weaken
My heart beats erratically
Out of rhythm
My hands
Reach for the keyboard
I sit wondering
Should I dare?

V4L2 Support For DMA-BUF Will Come In Linux 3.8
Published on 13 December 2012 05:13 AM EST
Written by
Michael Larabel
5 Comments
Linux 3.8 kernel
that just officially entered development days ago will feature support with Video 4 Linux 2 (V4L2) for handling
buffer sharing.
DMA-BUF V4L2 support has been
a work in progress
for several months, but with Linux 3.8 the support has finally landed. This support allows for zero-copy buffer sharing using DMA-BUF so that, for example, a DMA-BUF-supported V4L2 driver could pass a buffer to be imported by a DRM graphics driver without actually needing to copy the buffer. Supported V4L2 drivers (such as the s5p-fimc V4L driver) can import and export buffers using DMA-BUF with other Linux kernel drivers.
The Video 4 Linux 2 DMA-BUF buffer sharing support is part of
the media updates pull
for the Linux 3.8 kernel. Aside from the DMA-BUF support, other media changes for Linux 3.8 include a "s3c-camif" Exynos hardware driver, various warning fixes, and then various bug-fixes, clean-ups, and driver improvements.

Here Here I have just had the same experience. Next time I hear of Post offices closing I will find it hard to feel sorry. Clearly, the attitude prevailing at the Post Office is that of the financial services in general, fleece you by the terms and conditions and everything loaded in their favor.

Do not use this product. The post office counter staff failed to load my card with my £700 of cash. I ended up stranded in America with an empty card.

Loaded the Post Office Travel Money Card in the UK with US$ and it worked fine. I did not spend as much as I thought I would and asked for the money left on the card to be reimbursed. This takes at least 15 working days as they dont start to process until 7 days after your request, which I can understand as there may be transactions outstanding. Then, they send you a LETTER to take to the post office to be reimbursed. On my second phone call to them they told me totally the wrong information… Read Full Review

A whip-cracking Christmas at Tate Britain | Visual arts reviews, news & interviews
A whip-cracking Christmas at Tate Britain
It's the time of year when Tate Britain unveils its much-anticipated, artist-designed Christmas tree. Over the years, we've had Fiona Banner decorating hers with unpainted Airfix models of fighter planes, while Sarah Lucas hung hers with stuffed tights instead of baubles. Tacita Dean vied between tradition and Minimalism with a simple arrangement of beeswax candles, while both Mark Wallinger and Julian Opie decided to forego the fir tree altogether: Wallinger opted for a bare, spindly aspen decked with mass-produced Catholic rosary beads, while, true to his cartoon/Ikea aesthetic, Opie's contribution was a fake forest of painted trees made of intersecting planes of wood.
This year it's the turn of a conceptual artist whose practice "celebrates the power of nothing". Giorgio Sadotti is perhaps best known for a 1999 work entitled Went to America Didn't Say a Word. This involved flying to New York, staying overnight in a hotel and then flying back to London, all without saying a word for the duration of his stay. During his waking moments, a mini disc recorded his movements and interactions.
Wanting his Norwegian Spruce - in a work sibilantly entitled Flower Ssnake - to "maintain its dignity and timeless grace", Sadotti has decided to present his Tate Britain tree in all its naked, natural glory, completely unadorned. But that's not all. Tucked discreetly underneath the tree, which is installed in the gallery's Neo-Classical Rotunda, you'll find a coiled bullwhip, waiting to be used: on the twelfth night of Christmas the tree will be animated in a one-off performance that will see the spirit of the season robustly whipped out of it, an energetic perfomance for which free tickets can be obtained at Tate Britain's member's desk.
Whether it will be yelping in pain, as well as attempting to dodge the brutal lashes, remains to be seen, though one imagines its "dignity" might just be a little undermined.
- Flower Ssnake unveiled at Tate Britain on December 11, until 5 January, 2011

The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office on Wednesday detailed 103 ways Congress and the administration could cut spending or raise revenue to reduce the budget deficit over the next decade.
The report updates budget options last issued by CBO in March 2011, before several rounds of fiscal fights in Washington, and comes as Congress is struggling to come up with even a small deficit deal to replace the automatic spending cuts from sequestration.
The options examined include 23 cuts to mandatory spending, 28 cuts to discretionary spending, 36 revenue increases and 16 changes to healthcare.
The budget deficit fell to $680 billion in fiscal 2013, the first time it was below $1 trillion under President Obama, and CBO expects it to continue to fall through the middle part of the decade. The scorekeeper warns that healthcare costs, rising interest rates, and the aging population will cause entitlements to explode the deficit in years to come.
CBO said Wednesday that "extended projections show a substantial imbalance" with the deficit reaching 100 percent of the economy by 2038.
"To put the federal budget on a sustainable long-term path, lawmakers would need to make significant policy changes," CBO said.

So I currently already have one P100 CM Wiz with 260k dps. I want to make some more wizard in hoped of leveling them to P100 before the new paragon system is introduced.
Just curious to what build would be the fastest? I could run MP10 as cm or drop the mp to something like mp5 and speed clear in archon. If anyone know which builds would be the best I would appreciate it |
well considering you already have a p100 you should know what works and what doesn't right?
I'd be really surprised if something beat out archon.
MP0 or MP1 you can run speed blizzard, but since xp is so much higher now as the monster power goes up, I doubt it would compare. |
I would suggest u archon + full party (cs + exp monk ) , wd ( hex ) , and cm (bonechill + timewarp) and run mp10 . with nice party elites die around 10 secs per , do a1 until bored , and after a2 ... xp goes like crazy .
p.s. that's only in my opinion . cuz it took me couple days ( 3-4h play a day ) to get from 90 to 100 . p.p.s. world record is around 80 hours :) from 0 to 100 ... |
okay thanks everyone for the ideas
I'd be really surprised if something beat out archon. blizzard with dynamo can clear out trash mobs on mp10 faster than archon, + you can skip elites much easier if you use illusionist+teleport wormhole. Well you could use tele archon + illusionist but, it's not that much effective as with the blizzard run n gun tactics. i haven't tried the party with other wiz, but i manage to get a hold of it on a party with a rend barb and it went out pretty well since you can keep up with the barb speed coz of teleport. |

unicode possibilities
It would be nice if cl-user would display unicode input for CJK text. With PCL and On Lisp getting new printings in Japan, it might be beneficial to attract more brain-share from that side of the world. Would this be considered out of cl-user.net's scope?

re: unicode possibilities
I have to think about it.
The use of English as the standard language is prefered so that the information is useable by most lispers.
I don't mind some other language content though.

Carl (Jim Carrey), a loan officer so morose he needs to have his arm twisted to go for drinks with friends, is ripe for conversion by a self-help guru (Terence Stamp) who orders him to say "yes" to everything. Soon he's giving cash to a bum, learning Korean, talking a man off a ledge, and wooing a punk rocker (Zooey Deschanel) he would never have met without his new "philosophy." This is basically a nerd-loosening-his-tie romantic comedy done in the manic-compulsive mode of Liar Liar. It has more chuckles than guffaws, though, maybe because Carrey has always been a comic actor who says yes yes yes. Literalizing that impulse only robs it of surprise. B?

We cannot be indignant about press indoctrination by private interest while ignoring the same thing by the state
Dear Editor,I thought about ignoring Mr Rajendra Bissessar's response to my letter which he captioned 'The press is used to impose cultural hegemony over the minds of the working class' SN May 26) .
The public debt began its rise in the colonial era and became unsustainable in the Burnham era
Dear Editor, "Mr Speaker, I rise to present to this House the biggest Budget ever presented to any Legislature in British Guyana" (Peter d'Aguiar, 1965) .
Mr Van West Charles has to identify specific mistakes for which apology should be made
Dear Editor, The mere fact that the news item, 'There should be apology for past wrongs, Van West Charles says' (SN May 24), engendered 119 responses and reactions in the 'Readers Comments' section, tells me that there is a huge interest in what is happening in the PNC, but especially any new direction it may choose to go in order to either be a far more effective opposition or even to retake political power at the polls .
All Guyanese should be concerned about the Polar beer matter
Dear Editor, Congratulations on the excellent editorial in relation to the Polar beer matter, captioned 'Fidelity farce,' in the May 25, 2009 edition of the Stabroek News .
Some of those who fled to foreign shores created the problems at home
Dear Editor, After reading all the letters and comments about Guyanese fleeing to all corners of the globe because of the poor quality of governance at home and the general failed society they have left behind, I simply have to say that some of those who are fleeing to foreign shores have created, fostered and contributed to the problem in the first place .
Union members and citizens have to take back their trade unions and government
Dear Editor, The statement, "He who pays the piper calls the tune," by Carvil Duncan, Chairman of the Federation of Independent Trade Unions of Guyana, in his May Day address is deserving of attention .
Government should act against speeding police and army vehicles
Dear Editor, In how many more instances must the police in Guyana demonstrate their ability to speed on our roadways for government to take note and act?More innocent Guyanese continue to fall victims to speeding army and police vehicles on our roads and no one seems to be doing anything .
Importing is easy now compared to what it used to be
Dear Editor, Very few items now require an import licence, and there is no shortage of foreign currency or restrictions in making remittances .
What have we achieved after 43 years?
Dear Editor, As we celebrate 43 years of independence, we need to ask ourselves what we have achieved .
Why is Israel not seen as provoking anyone?

The air conditioning in the National Cultural Centre needs fixing
Dear Editor,I attended a performance at the National Cultural Centre on Saturday May 22, 2009 at 20:00hrs and was seated in the balcony (seat G114) .
Cost-effective and sound designs used elsewhere in Guyana could be implemented at D'Edward to stop erosion of the road
Dear Editor,In an article titled, 'D'Edward residents fear loss of road to erosion,' which appeared in SN on May 19, it was reported that residents of D'Edward Village, West Coast Berbice said that the edges of a road alongside a canal close to the sluice are eroding, along with sections of the street, and called for urgent attention to these problems .
Some PNCR groups have difficulty accessing membership forms
Dear Editor,The 16th Biennial Congress of the People's National Congress will be held from August 21 to 23, 2009 .
Contemptuous response
Dear Editor,Just one day after a letter bearing the caption, 'Perish the thought,' was published in SN (May 21), pleading with the fish shop in Drury Lane to respect the right to peace and quiet of students writing CXC, the fish shop responded in the most inhumane way .
Noise nuisance continues
Dear Editor,At about 10 pm, the sound level from the show at the Starlite Drive-in on May 16, 2009, was upped to send the citizens of Atlantic Gardens mad .
Filling up the glass
Dear Editor,Guyanese need to stop seeing the glass either half full or half empty, and start thinking how we can best fill up the rest of the glass .
The Toastmasters Club could help the Miss Guyana Universe winner
Dear Editor,It seems that Guyana will be competing head to head with global beauties in the Bahamas at the 2009 Miss Universe Pageant in August .
The President should send the presidential pension bill back to parliament for amendment
Dear Editor,The pension and benefits President Bharrat Jagdeo will get when his term ends are a disgrace .
Guyana needs leaders who are independent thinkers
Dear Editor,Over the past four decades since independence, we Guyanese have seen many personalities that have presented themselves as the alpha leaders of Guyana .
The press is used to impose cultural hegemony over the minds of the working class
Dear Editor,In response to Mr Robin Williams' letter in the SN dated May 14 and captioned 'We should not cherry-pick when it comes to right and wrong,' I have this to say .
The Linden-Soesdyke Highway within Linden should be re-designated a municipal road
Dear Editor,Urgency in the extreme sense of the word prompts me to write this letter, since I am torrmented by the question of how many more have to die before the sober, cogent and eminently practical recommendations proposed by the Regional Democratic Council of Region 10 are implemented to address the issue of reducing vehicular accidents along the Linden Soesdyke Highway, and especially within the town of Linden .
Let us end the bitterness
Dear Editor,The last two public holidays were very significant with respect to our history .
Guyana should take back its place as a proud nation
Dear Editor,So the issue of illegal or undocumented Guyanese in Barbados is once again in the news .
There is a correlation between Guyana's deterioration and illegal migration
Dear Editor,Media coverage of the impact of Barbados's new immigration policy, comes across as a deliberate strategy to divert attention from the origin of the situation .
The local government reform process should not have lasted more than a year
Dear Editor,The delay in holding local government elections is to be blamed on President, Bharrat Jagdeo and the PPP/C .
Present state of journalism demands urgent new thinking

President Jagdeo does not have to go abroad to protect the rights of Guyanese

The agriculture sector is not doing well
Dear Editor,Agriculture is the nation's most critical sector and its biggest foreign revenue earner .
Presidential pension v old age pension
Dear Editor,It is amazing to see that Mr Jagdeo wants $210M for his retirement pension, and we the senior citizens of this country who worked and paid our rates must live on $6,300 per month .
There should be full disclosure about Mr Corbin's health
Dear Editor, The main view articulated by Ms Fidela Corbin in her letter regarding Mr Khemraj Ramjattan's call for information on her father's overseas treatment, which was published in the Stabroek News on May 21, 2009, respectfully, should not be allowed to contend .
There should be an investigation into why the Sugar Action Plan was submitted late
Dear Editor, I could not believe my eyes when I read in two of your daily editions last week that Guyana will be unable to benefit from a €6M ($1 .
Brother was wrongfully incarcerated; Brickdam lockups must be upgraded now
Dear Editor, I would not normally be involved in writing to the letter pages, because as a person in public life I believe that people must have their say, and it is a fact that public personalities are the objects of scrutiny and perpetual derision and ridicule .
SN is an effective 'Fourth Estate' player in Guyana
Dear Editor, I have been planning for a while now to let you know that the internet version of Stabroek News has vastly improved in the last six months, and apart from finding it a lot easier to navigate, I also found that its home page gives readers a synopsis of almost all areas that might be of interest .

To communicate critical information, infra-red (IR) images only are
no longer enough. With Fluke's Infrared Fusion technology,
one can now better identify details, and manage and analyse images
by combining the IR together with visible light images.
This has been made possible with Fluke's IR-Fusion technology, which simultaneously captures pixel-for-pixel infrared as well as visible light images and allows full image optimisation with five different on-camera as well as software viewing modes. With the integrated laser pointer visible on the images, precise and accurate faulty component identification has been significantly simplified. Fluke's new range of thermal imagers include the Fluke Ti4x models designed specifically for maintenance and production engineers and technicians. The Ti40 and Ti45 deliver high-resolution images where even the smallest temperature differences can be seen. The units are easy to use through the Windows CE menu structure and offer an extended trouble-shooting feature to allow immediate analysis in the field. The higher-end Ti50 and Ti55 IR FlexCam are aimed at the professional who requires the highest sensitivity application. These feature 320 by 240 detectors with industry-leading thermal sensitivity for high-resolution and quality images. In addition, with a 60 Hz-detector acquisition rate, temperatures are displayed live on the large five-inch colour display. The real power behind IR-Fusion is the Smart-View software. This captures and annotates hundreds of corresponding visible and IR images in the field and imports them into the SmartView suite. Here, the images can be improved for maxi-mum communication value by adjusting within IR-Fusion's five display modes. Comtest is the only authorised distributor of Fluke Industrial and Electrical test tools in southern Africa. Edited by: Christy van der Merwe

Title: Need advice for growing Texas Mountain Laurel from seed in Humble, TX
Answered by: Jimmy Mills
We live in Humble, Texas 77396 and would like to grow some Texas Mountain Laurel trees from seed. I recently read that they may not grow well in this area because they prefer the Texas Hill country and rocky soils. Do you think they would grow well here if we added a lot of crushed rock to the planting medium? Please advise. And thanks for all you do! We recently visited your Center and I will never look at a wildflower in the same way again!!ANSWER:
Mr. Smarty Plants is glad that you enjoyed your visit to the Ladybird Johnson Wildflower Center. Please come again soon.
Growing Texas Mountain Laurel Sophora secundiflora (Texas mountain laurel) from seed is an interesting project that can be frustrating or rewarding, or both. My first caveat is that the seeds are toxic, so if you have children involved, use caution to make sure that none of the seeds are ingested!
I'm providing several links with information that should help make this project a success. The first is the NPIN Database Page for Sophora secundiflora (click link above). Under growing conditions, you see that the plant prefers, among other things, full sun and well drained alkaline soils with a pH<7.2. The paragraph on Plant Propagation describes procedures for scarifying the seed and conditions for planting.
Here are some other links with a brief description of contents:
Plantanswers.com good description of plant, and germination procedures
Bob Harms, UT Austin good discussion on germination
Paul's Blog good general information, use of limestone gravel to raise pH
Texas Gardener (scroll down to Mountain Laurel) talks about growing the plant in East Texas
Aridzonetrees.com good general information
In summary, if you give the plants full sun, provide them with well drained alkaline soil, and don't over water them, they should grow in Harris County. The hardest part may be getting the seeds to germinate.

Dating site Jess, Meet Ken lets women call the shots
- Sara Castellanos
- Technology Reporter- Boston Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+
The problem with most online dating sites, Ken Deckinger says, is that women are bombarded with too many potential matches that they have a hard time sifting through.
Deckinger aims to change that with a new endeavor that turns women into matchmakers: Boston-based Jess, Meet Ken, which launched in beta last week.
Deckinger said the site allows women to "call the shots" and create profiles of single men they know but are not romantically interested in, who could be good matches for other women. Women can then ask to be introduced to a man that another woman vouches for.
"The reality is, women really do know how to sell a guy better than a guy knows how to sell himself," said Deckinger, who previously co-founded speed dating and online dating service HurryDate, acquired in 2007 by Los Angeles-based Spark Networks (which also owns JDate and ChristianMingle).
About 300 women created profiles for men on the site within a week of launching, without any formal promotion or marketing efforts, Deckinger said. The users were mostly from Boston and New York, he said.
Jess, Meet Ken is currently self-funded and Deckinger said he'll spend the next two months evaluating activity on the site before deciding whether to seek a seed round.
Accessing the site, browsing and using various site features will be free to users, but Deckinger plans to generate revenue through a premium subscription service. Women who post profiles of men will receive a free subscription.
Jess, Meet Ken offers an alternative to the traditional online dating format, which Deckinger said makes it hard for both women and men to find the right matches.
"It's very challenging to determine which guys might be right for them, and at the same time, the guys that are right for them have a hard time cutting through the noise," he said.
Women using the site can also chat with each other about the recommended male friend before they get introduced, to make sure they're a good match.
Deckinger believes the site will help people find love. He could be right. After all, he met his own wife, Jess, through a female friend who used a similar site in 2003, he said. The site, which he did not name, is now defunct, he said.
"It worked for us, and we'd love to be able to share the experience we had with other people," he said.
Jess, Meet Ken is currently run by Deckinger and co-founder Adele Tongish, who both previously co-founded New York City-based HurryDate in 2001. The company has one other employee who manages technology and development.
