After the first official public release 0.7, the LXQt team is working on making it better. Our recent focus is fixing existing bugs and migrating from Qt4 to Qt5, which is required if we want to support Wayland. Now we had something to show. The latest source code in our git repository can be compiled with Qt5. by just passing -DUSE_QT5=ON flag to cmake. Building with Qt4 is still supported until the next release, but later we'll focus on Qt5.
Recently we also got some patches from the community and also a new developer joined us. We're now fixing some remaining bugs. Hopefully we can have 0.8 release soon.
It's known that system admin tools for LXQt were lacking.
This is no longer true. A new component lxqt-admin landed int our git repo. Please see the screenshots. These are "desktop-independent" pure Qt tools based on system-tool-backends.
lxqt-admin-time: Tool to configure date and time.
lxqt-admin-user: Tool to manage users and groups.
We know that LXQt is not good enough, but it will getting better and better. Long live LXQt, the classic desktop!
After the initial release of LXQt, I found that there is a FAQ. How's the memory usage? Will it become a bloated memory hog because of Qt? Here are some numbers for you.
My test environment is the latest Debian stable installed in VirtualBox with 512 MB of RAM and 1 CPU core assigned. After cold boot, the memory usage is as follows.
The screen resolution is 1280 x 1024. So a wallpaper roughly used 1280x1024x4 bytes = 5MB of RAM. If you don't set a wallpaper, this number can be lower. Besides, this is a virtual machine so some special modules for vbox are loaded. I turned off printer service and network-manager applet since they're not used.
Yes, the memory usage slightly increased, but the difference is really negligible. Moreover, LXQt has more features, such as a better program launcher and new power management stuff.
Apparently the gtk+ 2 version uses less memory, but we cannot use gtk+ 2 forever. It's not a secret that gtk+ 3 is not a memory saver. So, I'd say Qt is really not that bad.
Why yet another DE? Why can't you do something more innovative? I think the answer for this FAQ is simple.
The following is my personal opinion (not on behalf of other LXQt developers)
Seriously, if a 17 MB memory usage increment can buy us faster development, more active developers [Figure 1], more contributors, and a healthier upstream community, that's definitely worth it. When I say healthier, I mean those who do not hold a "Follow our way, or go away!" attitude. This is just as important as other technical considerations when you choose a toolkit.
Many people like to argue that Qt is not C++ since it requires a pre-processor. Did anyone tell you that Gtk+ actually uses a preprocessor, too? Check the manpage of "glib-genmarshal" please. Without this pre-processor to generate some code for you, it will be awfully difficult to add signals to your GObjects. That's not C language, right?
It does not really matter for users what toolkit you're using given the final result works. Let's save some time not arguing which is better and focus on what we can do with them.
Recently, PC-BSD developers just reminded us that there is an unmet need for a Qt desktop for BSDs. So, here you go.
As stated earlier, we're not really Linux-centric. We support Linux better simply because we're Linux users. Now with some help from several FreeBSD users, things can be different. I installed FreeBSD 10 in Virtualbox last week. After reading some docs and fighting with it we fixed some broken makefiles. Now the major components should work as expected.
Of course, there are still some Linux things which do not work (yet).
Other parts should just work. We hope that we can improve FreeBSD support more. Of course, help from the BSD community is needed.
The first release of LXQt is now available!
Downloads and links are hosted on lxqt.org. Mirrors of all the releases are also available on Github. Issues and pull requests should be filed on the Github issue tracker.
The full release announcement is available on the mailing list.
Since the merge of the LXDE and Razor-Qt teams in July 2013, there has not been any releases to the public. After months of works, the merged product is in a good shape now. It's quite stable and usable. So we are discussing about the possibility to make the first alpha release for the long awaited DE. The exact date of the release is still under discussion, but we will do it as soon as possible. Since it's an alpha release, which means it's for early testers and developers interested, please do not expect too much. Things are expected to be broken and some parts might still need some polishing. For example, translations are not done yet. They will be done before the final release of LXDE-Qt (or LXQt).
p.s.: If someone is willing to help test it on FreeBSD, please let us know. :-)
In the GTK+ world, we have many lightweight music players, such as Audacious. While migrating to Qt, some people might want a Qt-based alternative for use in LXDE-Qt. Fortunately, we have Qmmp. Here are screenshots from their website. They provides the old-school WinAmp-like skins, or you can install the qmmp-plugin-pack to get the foobar2000-like simple UI.
The music player looks very suitable for LXDE-Qt, but it has some known problems, one of which is higher CPU usage then similar music players (mainly Audacious). To improve that, I spent two days hacking and found some potential solutions so I share them here.
If you love qmmp, try to see if the solutions provided here solve your problems.
The LXQt project is steadily developed. While the image viewer lximage-qt just got some polishing lately, the Qt port of PCManFM file manager also reaches a quite usable state.
Some notable changes are:
Though we don't have a stable release yet, basically the feature set of the Qt port is quite close to the earlier 1.0 version of the gtk+ version. Users interested to the project are encouraged to test the latest code in our git repo. Patches are always welcomed!
Here is a guide for building lxqt components from git.
The image viewer of LXQt (LXDE-Qt) has been improved much recently. Here is the latest screenshot.
Here is a brief list of recent changes:
The image viewer is fully functional and usable now. At the same time, other LXQt components are getting some more updates as well. Though there are no formal releases of LXQt yet, the latest code in git already works pretty well. Please stay tunned!

Cyanide & Happiness is a daily webcomic strip at explosm.net It was begun by Kris Wilson originally, but after showing his work to some members on the sticksuicide.com forum several others joined in the fun: Matt Melvin, Rob DenBleyker and Dave McElfatrick. They have no shame in exploiting extreme Black Comedy, Literal-Minded-ness and affinities for the most hilariously controversially awkward situations known to webcomickind. Their comics involve the exploitation of simply-drawn stick figures for all they're worth.Dark, cynical, offensive, irreverent... and we're just getting started.In 2013, the creators announced that they want to make this comic and series of shorts into a web series with 24-minute-long episodes, preferrably to be picked up by an online channel. Years prior, they pitched to 3 television networks, but none lasted, and they eventually realized that TV won't allow them to create the kind of show they want. They started a Kickstarter campaign for the series, which is currently their highest grossing campaign for an animated project ever.

Measuring Measure WW
Original post made on Sep 30, 2008
On the Nov. 4 ballot will be Measure WW, a $500-million bond measure that seeks to extend Measure AA, which was passed in 1988 and runs out this year. Measure AA raised a total of $225 million for the parks district to connect trails, purchase open space, restore creeks and build recreation areas and parks. But the money from AA has been spent or is already allocated for future projects.

From the article: " 'Some of the older trails . . . are used by horses and the hikers and when we mix up the bicycles with it, you get issues--the horses panic, the bike coming down the road fast,' [EBRPD General Manager Pat] O'Brien said. 'It's something we have to balance. It's not that they're prohibited from access, it's a question of where.' "
If the horses are panicking, why doesn't EBRPD ban them from the trails? Are they also panicking when they encounter a snake, an off-leash dog, a coyote, or any sudden movement? Judging by EBRPD's horse-involved accident statistics, it appears they are.
Actually, competent equestrians with well-trained horses don't have these problems. The problem is the dilettantes who don't know how to ride a horse on a trail and whose horses aren't properly trained. They're a relative handful these days anyway, yet EBRPD caters to them as though the parks would lose their character without their presence.
The truth is that EBRPD bans bicycles from almost all of its nice narrow trails. It doesn't even have many such trails to begin with, which is another disgrace. Cyclists are stuck on antiquated ranch roads that aren't suitable for human-powered recreation. EBRPD generally can't manage to build new narrow trails either (although it did build one at Brushy Peak, near Livermore, recently). There's always some purported obstacle.
Believe it or not, cyclists are EBRPD's largest trail user group by mileage covered. We deserve better.

Personally, I think the pictures of grazing and heavy equipment damage on Web Link are much more damning to the EBRPD and Measure WW than the bicycling arguments.
This isn't really about bicycles or horses. It's about a small minority of people who think they have a right to live in an urban area with 7 million people but never see anyone else in "their" parks. Mountain biking has become very popular, and it makes this minority grumpy to see more people in our public lands...especially when those people look like they're having a lot of fun.
Maybe if they want people to vote for more public parks, they shouldn't be working so hard to keep the public out of them.
on Sep 30, 2008 at 12:07 pm
With the state of our current economy, I'd rather see tax dollars being spent on something more important. I'm all for parks & recreation but this just doesn't seem like a high priority right now.

When marine scientist Kevin Eckelbarger used to complain about administrators, his wife encouraged him to be proactive.
So he became one.
At the end of August, Eckelbarger will wrap up a 23-year gig as director of a "unique and invaluable facility" — the University of Maine's Darling Marine Center.
Eckelbarger is the third director of the DMC, Ira Darling's former family estate on the banks of the Damariscotta River estuary. In 1965, Darling donated his Walpole spread, which now encompasses 170 acres and 25 buildings, to UMaine to create an oceanography program.
Darling's gift has evolved into a "science resort" — a world-renowned marine station for students and researchers from around the globe, says Eckelbarger.
"I'll miss the spontaneity and unpredictability," says Eckelbarger, whose days often include budget planning, fundraising, giving tours, dealing with staff and students matters, writing letters of recommendation and planning for DMC's 50th anniversary in 2015.
"I'm an adrenaline junkie," he says. "I don't like being bored."
While he'll miss the impulsivity, Eckelbarger isn't dwelling on the past. "Although I'm a history buff, I don't like looking back," he says. "I'm much more interested in the future."
And the future includes again focusing on being a marine scientist and educator. Retirement, he says, is a few years away. "I don't want to raise roses and I don't golf," Eckelbarger says.
He'll relish delving into his deep-sea research, such as studying cells from a jellyfish from Antarctica that humans have never seen before, and working on a book about the history of marine biology. And he'll return to the classroom to teach DMC undergraduates. "It's (teaching) more challenging than anything I've ever done," he says.
This fall, Eckelbarger will instruct a four-credit course on the biology of marine invertebrates and a one-credit undergraduate seminar that preps students to plan for a career, apply to graduate school and jobs and train for interviews.
Eckelbarger knows a thing or two about interviewing. He did three site visits before taking the director's job at DMC; he says he wanted to make sure it would be a good fit.
Facilities improvement was a prime focus when Eckelbarger started in 1991. With National Science Foundation grant funds and money from the Darling Trust, additions have included two classrooms, a SCUBA dive building (he remembers when divers changed their gear in their trucks), a vessel operations building, a new library, a dormitory/dining hall, the 42-foot research vessel Ira C. and a two-story flowing seawater laboratory for aquaculture research. In addition, nearly every original building has been renovated and many laboratory instruments have been replaced or upgraded.
The DMC is a "window to the sea," says Eckelbarger, an ideal location at which to earn a marine science degree. He praises the 20-year-old Semester By the Sea program that immerses students in marine life. Professors recognized for their groundbreaking research lead field trips dictated only by the tides.
Eckelbarger says he's also proud of the DMC's connection with the community including free public tours and nature walks, as well as its K–12 marine science outreach programs for hundreds of local schoolchildren. "It's important," he says. "They gain a life perspective and learn about marine ecosystems and where food comes from and about pollution and overfishing."
Living and working on the ocean are a bit removed from where Eckelbarger grew up on a farm in Goshen, Ind., site of the second-largest county fair in the country and where Walmart provides covered stables for horses of Amish customers.
Eckelbarger says he's honored to be associated with DMC faculty who have made and are making important contributions to ocean science, from shellfish aquaculture to remote sensing oceanography.
Mary Jane Perry, professor in the School of Marine Sciences, will be interim director of the DMC, which is a part of UMaine's College of Natural Sciences, Forestry, and Agriculture.

Cougars open spring break with win over Canadian All-Star team
COOLIDGE, Ariz. -- Ozzie Gonzalez was a single from hitting for the cycle as the Western Nebraska Community College baseball team opened its Spring Break trip with a 9-7 win over an all-star team from British Columbia, Canada, Sunday in Arizona.
Gonzalez finished the day going 4-for-4 with a doubles, two triple, a home run, three RBIs, and three runs scored in powering the Cougars to the win.
WNCC coach Mike Jones said they played well offensively, finishing with 12 hits including six extra base hits.
"We played well. We could have pitched better but offensively we played well," Jones said. "What Ozzie did offensively was impressive. He put on a show today [Sunday]."
The Cougars opened the contest by plating two runs in the first inning Gonzalez tripled in Zach Ostergard with the first run before Gonzalez scored on an Alex Michaud single.
Canada took their first lead of the game in the second by plating four runs and then added a single run in the third for a 5-2 lead.
The lead was short lived as WNCC added four runs in the third on five hits. JT Core started the inning with a single followed by a run-scoring double by Cameron Snyder. Gonzalez then launched a 2-run home run to tie the game. WNCC took the lead as Nick Vanthillo singled home Michaud for the 6-5 lead.
Canada came back to take a 7-6 lead with single runs in the fifth and sixth innings. The Cougars went back in front with three runs in the seventh on just two hits. Gonzalez started the inning with a triple and scored on a wild pitch. Then, Keeton Krause doubled in Gabriel DeLa Rosa and Michaud for the 9-7 lead.
Grant Piccoli and John Timmins then came in and pitched the eighth and ninth inning to shut down the Canada bats. Timmins picked up the save by striking out two and allowing one hit in the night inning. Kyle Shoutta picked up the win tossing the seventh inning in relief of Jason Palser, who went six innings and scattering nine hits and allowing seven runs. Palser struck out nine and walked five in the game.
WNCC had three players finish with multiple hits. Besides Gonzalez's big day, Michaud went 2-for-4 with two runs scored, and Vanthillo went 2-for-4. Also picking up doubles were Snyder and Krause. Krause also had two RBIs.
WNCC will be back in action today when they face Glendale Community College in Glendale, Ariz., in a 9-inning game.
Canada 041 011 000 -- 7 10 2
WNCC 204 000 30x -- 9 12 2
WP -- Kyle Shoutts, S -- John TImmins; 2B -- Cameron Snyder, Ozzie Gonzalez, Keeton Krause; 3B -- Gonzalez 2; HR -- Gonzalez.

Simms says he will come back to the team and start working as soon as he can. He's weak right now because he couldn't eat for a week. He says he can't hurt his spleen anymore, and that is a good point. How many football injuries do you get to just remove the affected body part? Well two I guess so far: Chris Simms and Ronnie Lester.Even despite the severity of his injury and blood transfusion, what is involved in the recovery other than building up strength and letting the stitches heal? Everybody says "Oh be careful! Don't come back too soon!" But as long as things are healed up why not? He can't reinjure his spleen because its gone. We haven't heard about any broken ribs.If there are some medical people on this board, please tell why he can't come back in say six weeks?
If there are some medical people on this board, please tell why he can't come back in say six weeks?
He didn't have it scoped, he had the muscles cut. He's done for the year. They take a long ass time to heal, and then rehab on top of it. An injury that affects the abdominal cavity is tricky, things can still be leaking into it, it'll be a week before they know for certain that everything inside is OK (may still be a small leak or sensitive area that tears if he stands up to quick) before he can do much more than lay in bed and walk to the head. Once he clears that he'll need a few more for the muscles to heal enough to start light rehab. He'll have to be monitored as he rehabs as they may tear if he pushes them too far. He won't be ready for NFL level hits and activity before December at the most incredibly earliest. And if he does come back he's a Damn fool -- he's got a new baby to worry about, he needs to be 100% sure. It isn't gonna help his carreer to come back in December and it may hurt it.
This all makes sense. I'm not a doctor so I'll take your word for it.Only one problem. Simms is not on IR. Why not? If they are throwing in the towel for Simms' season he' be on IR right now so they could use his spot to get another player on the roster. Obviously they (including the Bucs doctor who saved his life) still hold out hope that he will come back this season.
I think other teams might be willing to wait till next season to get their hands on him, despite his status as damaged goods. The Bucs might be able to get a player of some worth, or a decent (3rd roundish) type draft pick for him...
This makes no sense. He would be a free agent at the end of the year regardless if he is traded or not. He is not going to sign a new contract with a team just because he was traded to them. Simms has absolutely zero trade value because he is a UFA at the end of the year.

As coal mining companies and coal hauling companies prepare
to release their financial results for the first quarter, one thing is clear: Both industries are down this year.
According to figures released by the Energy Information
Administration, West Virginia's coal production was down about 6 percent in the
first quarter compared with last year. Overall, Appalachian production was down
7.2 percent.
The state's two major railroads have reported reduced
shipments in the first quarter. CSX says its carloads were down 16.3 percent in
the first quarter compared to 2012, and they were down about 25 percent from
two years ago.
Norfolk Southern's numbers are less dramatic, with a drop in
carloads of 1.8 percent compared with 2012 and 15.4 percent compared with 2011.
CSX will release its first quarter financial results on
April 17. Norfolk Southern releases its results on April 23.
For the 52-week period that ended March 30, West Virginia
production was down about 10.2 percent, according to the EIA. Kentucky's production
fell 17.9 percent, Pennsylvania's 7.2 percent, Virginia's 15.5 percent and
overall Appalachian production declined 12.4 percent.

We would not have experienced this property if it were not for the TravelZoo offer. With me, it's the little things. We had ample towels and the water pressure in the shower was fabulous. We had a good time and plan to visit the Inn at Leola Village again and again.

On his weekly radio interview Friday, Mayor Michael Bloomberg said putting a fingerprinting system in place at New York City Housing Authority complexes would reduce crime, but the plan has already drawn strong opposition from some of the candidates running to replace him. NY1's Courtney Gross filed the following report.
A resident of a New York City Housing Authority building showed NY1 a special magnetic key that residents use to get into housing authority buildings.
"You can't really make copies of it unless you get a copy from the management office," the resident said.
On his radio show Friday, Mayor Michael Bloomberg suggested another way.
"If you have strangers walking in the halls of your apartment building, don't you want somebody to stop and say 'Who are you? Why are you here?'" Bloomberg said. "What we really should have is fingerprinting to get in."
The idea of fingerprinting isn't new for Bloomberg. He was a supporter of fingerprinting for food stamps.
"It's immoral. It's discriminatory," said Democratic mayoral candidate Bill de Blasio.
"It is outrageous, and I think the mayor should apologize for that statement," said Democratic mayoral candidate Christine Quinn.
"It is just, it is offensive," said Democratic mayoral candidate William Thompson.
"I don't like the idea of further stigmatizing people," said Democratic mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner.
"That's ridiculous. You treat people as criminals to keep them safe?," said Democratic mayoral candidate John Liu.
The whole conversation started because some residents and visitors to the housing authority claim they are the subject of unlawful arrests and stops. It's the subject of a class-action lawsuit that's been assigned to the same judge who just ruled on stop-and-frisk.
On Friday, the Bloomberg administration filed paperwork to appeal that stop-and-frisk decision, which found that the practice violated the constitution and requires a court monitor of the practice.
"As mayor, I would end any appeal of that decision," de Blasio said.
"Think about it. They want to be mayor, but they want to have outsiders come in and tell them what to do," Bloomberg said. "City's going to pay for it. City's going to suffer."
They don't think so.
Quinn took it a step further, filing court papers against the administration.
"Since there's been some questions raised about the validity of the mayoral candidates' statements about not appealing, I wanted to make it abundantly clear that I do not want the administration to appeal, and that when I'm mayor, I will drop that appeal on day one," she said.

Happy Kids Babysitting Gives Peace of Mind to Kiwi Parents
"We are a family with two kids aged 8 and 2 and we've travelled a lot to all parts of the world. We have always used hotel babysitters with confidence, ensuring we get to enjoy some adult time once our treasures are tucked up in bed after a full day on holiday. Before going to Hawaii I researched babysitting options via the hotel, and found that all roads lead to full-scale babysitting and nanny services in Hawaii.

Aussie Aaron is still a Wanderer (From The Bolton News)
Aussie Aaron is still a Wanderer
8:00am Thursday 13th December 2012 in Latest
AUSTRALIAN international Aaron Mooy is enjoying life back in his native Sydney after a move to the A-League earlier this year.
The attacking midfielder swapped his home town for Wanderers in 2006 as a 16-year-old but is now plying his trade with a different Wanderers – the Sydney version – after leaving Scottish outfit St Mirren in the close season.
And the former Whites youngster says the move has provided more regular football Down Under as well as a chance with the senior national side.
The 22-year-old said: "It really has turned out to be a great move.
"I never thought I'd come back home and end up in the Socceroos.
"Things have been going really well for me at the moment. When I was in Scotland, I was a bit frustrated because I wasn't playing much.
"But I've been given a really great opportunity to get regular game time at the Wanderers.
"So now I'm just enjoying my football more than ever and I'm really happy to be back around my family."

For those of us who can't do pull ups well yet, is it better to do assisted pull ups and just decrease the assisted weight to progress or to do cable lat pull downs and up the weight to progress?
IMO, I think it's better to focus on assisted pullups and even do some other variations of pullups such as jumping pullups or negatives
are lat pulldowns okay to use every once in awhile? Sure, but I think you'd be better of, as I stated already, focusing on variations of the pullup until you can do them without help.

You want our weapons!? Come and get them!
I agree. If you want to get better at pullups, then do variations of pullups.
Can you do chinups? What about mixed grip pullups? Neutral grip? If you are stronger at those then try those, as well.

"Most people don't want to learn new things. They only want to hear about things that validate crap they're already doing." - Mike Boyle
I don't care for assisted pullups at all... they are not close enough to regular pull ups. A better option is learning how to kip... or doing partial range of motion pullups. Having someone "help" you changes the forces in a way that does now put the same stress on the back.
Pulldowns I feel are a good alternative if you cannot do either of the above things.

"Fk you and the Prowler you rode in on"
It depends on what your goals are. IMO, it's really not going to be that big of a difference as far as development goes, provided that's not the only thing you do for back.
But as stated, if you want to be good at pullups, do them. If you want a bigger back, use your back in a progressively heavier way while eating enough to grow. I like both.

Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination
alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'press on' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race."

Field Staff Structure Prior to 2002
Prior to 2002, NAEP trained two different field staffs: one to administer national assessments, pilot and field tests, and special studies and another to oversee state and school personnel administration of the state assessments. During this time, the staff structure for each field staff varied based on the personnel administering each type of assessment. As a result of The No Child Left Behind Act's provision for NAEP administration of all assessments, beginning with 2002, one field staff has been trained for each assessment year. While state and school personnel remain involved in coordinating and facilitating assessments, they are no longer responsible for administering NAEP.
While the annual staff structure beginning with the 2002 assessment varies to reflect the annual study design and any governmental policy changes to the conduct of assessments, the essential preassessment and assessment day activities generally remain the same.

The Plainswomen had lost earlier in the season to Otero and fell behind 8-3 after the first seven minutes of play, being held without a field goal. But the defense did its job through that stretch until the Plainswomen could find their offense. And find it they did. NJC outscored Otero 29-8 through the final 13 minutes of the first half.
Tiffany Mines led NJC with 14 points; she also had six rebounds. Charron Johnson had 11 points and 10 rebounds. Ashley Kennedy had 11 points and seven rebounds and Kylee Crumley had 10 points and seven rebounds. Alex Ochoa scored eight points, Jordan Bishop had six as did point guard Karala Orona, who also had eight assists. Jenna Vandenbark scored three.
It was rebounds that made the difference, with NJC swallowing up 58 to Otero's 39.
The defense also held all but one Ratter, Brittany Gutierrez, to under 10 points. Gutierrez scored 11.
NJC is now 3-7 in Region IX South play with the conference win over Otero, and 13-14 overall.
They play McCook Community College and Trinidad State on Friday and Saturday, respectively. Both are conference games,and both start at 5:30 p.m. NJC will be looking to win out to get favorable seeding against the North in the Region IX tournament, just a couple of weeks away.

We get asked about digital television and Freeview all the time. So, we've compiled for you a list of the most commonly asked questions to help with everything you need to know.
Freeview is the free digital television service in Australia. Freeview brings you all your existing favourite TV channels, plus extra TV channels, for free! That's great channels like ABC1, ABC2, ABC3, ABC News 24, SBS ONE, SBS TWO, SBS HD, Seven, 7TWO, 7mate, Nine, GO!, GEM, TEN, ONE & ELEVEN, NBN and Southern Cross Television. So if you love TV, you'll really love Freeview.
Yes – Freeview is the free-to-view TV service. Once you have digital-capable equipment, it's free. No contracts, no fees, no ongoing costs.
Between 2010 and 2013, the analogue free-to-view TV signals in Australia were switched off and replaced with digital-only signals.
Now that Australia has completed the digital switchover, all Australians are able to enjoy the full suite of digital channels. Check out your region to see what channels are in your area. The channels available include:
If you have an analogue or standard definition television, you will need to purchase a HD set-top-box, digital video recorder (DVR), or home entertainment console that has both DVR and digital tuner capabilities, such as a PS3 TM with PlayTV TM attached. Otherwise, you can purchase a HD integrated digital television to replace your existing TV. If you already have a HD digital television, you are already enjoying the benefits of Freeview.Some manufacturers offer equipment which has the added capability of being able to receive the Freeview Electronic Program Guide (EPG). These products will also give you access to the full suite of Freeview channels (both SD and HD channels). Only products that feature this Freeview EPG logo will receive the Freeview EPG:To learn more about the Freeview EPG, including the features and benefits, visit www.freeview.com.au/epg

1. You're currently out on tour with Jack Johnson as video director. How did that gig come about? For the past two years, I have been directing Jay-Z, a full on hip-hop show—really massive, high energy. When the opportunity came up through the show director on Jack Johnson, I was excited to shift gears and direct a singer/songwriter-style show.
2. What's the main gear used for the show, and what are the challenges? The design is based around an upstage scenic backdrop with front projection. Leif Dixon is using a Catalyst server driven by an MA Lighting grandMA to feed custom content and cameras to the drop. The I-Mag is always "dirtied up," so to speak. Jack's show is very mellow, and the design fits brilliantly.
For cameras, I have been using the systems provided by the festivals. This has run the gamut from very basic SD compact switchers to HD broadcast trucks. So, on a day-to-day basis, it is about assessing the systems of the festivals and building a show around various setups and camera positions. Flexibility is key. The festival, for sure, provides a good challenge when you leave the normal consistency of your own touring system.
3. You also did media programming on a recent Wal-Mart shareholders' meeting, a pretty big endeavor. What were the challenges of that production? I was controlling a large Control Freak Encore Bridge system with PRG Mboxes to control the five-screen production design. One of the goals was to up the integration between media servers and the Barco Encores. The final result was being able to achieve highly integrated transitions across a very large LED environment with Mboxes, Power Point graphics, and live cameras that would have otherwise been unachievable with just a media server or using the traditional corporate paradigm.
4. You actually started on the lighting side but spend most of your time as a media server programmer and video director these days. What took you in that direction? One of my first jobs in the industry was as the lighting director at Experience Music Project (EMP) in Seattle, WA. The venue, Sky Church, was built around a large custom 70'x40' old Sony Jumbotron. At the time, the room was ahead of its time, before the proliferation of LEDs everywhere. Media servers were just starting to enter the market. So my aesthetic developed around incorporating video into shows and also how to use video as an integrated design element with lighting. After I left EMP, I connected with Control Freak Systems and have been a part of the development team of the DMX Encore Bridge and other custom media server projects.
The full shift to video director happened in 2009 while working on Jay-Z supporting the Control Freak System. It felt really natural to take on the camera component of the show. I find that, when I switch back to programming media servers, or the occasional opportunity to do lighting, the video direction has trained my eye and helps my art in the other disciplines.
5. What piece of gear do you particularly like working with these days? While wearing the media server programmer hat, I'm a longtime user of grandMA and more recently have become an avid fan of PRG Mbox EXtreme media servers. The new MultiScreen Gobo/Editor feature is deluxe.
Control Freak Encore Bridge is a big part of my workflow for managing screens on television and industrial projects. From the programmer's point of view, having DMX control of the video equipment and router helps tremendously with the workflow.

New Wave staff
Tulane University students, faculty and staff members, alumni and friends of the university are being asked to donate 750,000 hours of community service as a tribute to Tulane President Scott Cowen when he steps down after 16 years at the helm of the university.
"Tulane students already log 430,000 hours of community service each year. With the help of faculty, staff, alumni and friends of Tulane we want to measurably increase that," says Vincent Ilustre, executive director of the Tulane Center for Public Service. "This will be the ultimate parting gift to someone who has inspired so many to commit to public service."
Tulane has been tracking its students' community service hours since Hurricane Katrina, when it became the first and only major research university in the country to make public service a curriculum requirement for all undergraduates. This new initiative, the Cowen Service Challenge, will extend that effort by recording the number of service hours donated by Tulane affiliates.
Cowen Service Challenge hours can include volunteering at any nonprofit, community, school, faith-based or civic organization — and can be done anywhere.
Service hours will be counted from August 2013 through May 2, 2014. Faculty, staff members, alumni and friends are being encouraged to register now and begin logging their service hours.
"This is a universitywide initiative," Ilustre says. "There is an advisory committee whose members will become 'champions' of public service. We want everyone to take ownership of this."
While the Center for Public Service will keep track of students' service-learning hours associated with the graduation requirement, students, faculty, staff, alumni and friends of Tulane can use the website to register hours they volunteer on their own.
"We know 750,000 is achievable, but we actually think the Tulane community can complete 1 million hours of service," Ilustre says.
