Coral Gables Museum exhibit shows off architecture students' concepts
Jason Chandler, chair of architecture at Florida International University, takes his students to Savannah, Ga., at the beginning of each semester to give them a new perspective on urban design.
"Savannah is the one trip that gets the conversation going," Chandler said. "It's a different universe for students that were born and raised in Miami."
Students then look at different cultural areas in Miami and create small-scale building models, prototypes of what they see around Miami's landscape, but with bits and pieces of what they liked from Savannah.
The best designs and models from about 100 students from seven of Chandler's courses taught in the past year will be part of the new Coral Gables Museum exhibit, "All Buildings Great and Small: New Building Designs for a Better City," from Friday to Oct. 26.
The students that take part in this exhibit are third-year students in a five-year architecture master's program at FIU.
Haley Perry, 21, took Chandler's course during the spring and her building model design will be displayed in this year's exhibit. Perry said Chandler's course is the culmination of the five-year track.
"I've always heard about the course," she said. "We basically apply everything we've learned up to that point."
Within a few months, Perry took some basswood, plexiglass and a white matte board and turned it into a two-story residential model.
The projects this year were inspired by Wynwood and Coral Gables, but Perry said that she was more taken by Little Havana, because it is pedestrian-friendly and one of the few neighborhoods where residences have businesses or retailers on the building's ground floor.
The trip to Savannah gives the students a few days to explore the city and study the urban structures as a model to contrast with Miami, which according to Chandler, mostly has either detached, single-family homes or high-rises.
"We're trying to provoke the idea that you want both," Chandler said. "Savannah has an extraordinary urban plan, and [in Miami] the idea of neighborhood and collective space is eroded."
As Perry took it, the urban design of each city dictates a different lifestyle — Miami is a commuter city, where homes are in the suburbs and commercial areas are separate, while Savannah is more integrated and pedestrian.
Although this is the second year that FIU students create models for an exhibit, Chandler has been working on this initiative for about seven years along with Andrew Frey, executive director of Townhouse Center, whose mission is to help build urban buildings and neighborhoods. Together, Chandler and Frey are co-curators to the exhibits.
Last year's studio was funded by a $20,000 grant from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation.
This year and next year's studios, Chandler said, are funded by a $60,000 two-year grant from the Knight Foundation, which also finances the trip to Georgia for students and faculty in the course.
With the financial boost, there are many more model and designs in this exhibit.
In the Anthony R. Abraham Family Gallery at the museum, visitors will see around 300 little models of about 40 inches long and 18 inches high, as well as 18 larger models, which about 14 feet wide and five feet tall.
Caroline Parker, the director of programs at the Coral Gables Museum, said that Chandler's project resonated with the museum's focus on urban design and architecture.
"It certainly reflected our mission — that's why we gave him three months in our calendar," she said.
As the host venue, Parker said the museum gives Chandler a platform to get the students projects and ideas outside of the FIU walls.
"That makes it very relatable to anyone who is familiar with Miami," Parker said. "That will definitely strike a chord."
To supplement the exhibit, Chandler will lead one of the museum's Saturday walking tours around Coral Gables, where he focuses on how smaller building designs work in Miami.
"Most of these early 1920s buildings [around Coral Gables] were two-story structures," she said. "There's something to that small-scale development staple — it adds a lot of charm."

Installing pine planks on concrete?
I'd like to install pine planks on the basement floor but it's just carpet over concrete right now. Any suggestions??
Also, is it okay to just nail pine planks to a subfloor? Weren't many of the old homes done just with nails??? I really need an answer for both these questions and you guys seem to know your stuff. I'm new to the site and I do have some woodworking experience.
Thanks guys
there are a few ways to do it.
if you want true solid pine plank flooring, the best way it to isntall a moisture/vapor barrier, a 2"x4" sleeper/joist system, then 3/4" plywood subfloor, then the planking.
some do away with the sleeper/joist system and just put down a vapor/moisture barrier, playwood, then planking, but this gives little to no "breathing space" for moisture evaporation.
alternately, you cold elect a pine look-a-like floating laminate flooring or a floating or glued engineered wood floating floor system.
This is simply for information.... as in, I have no personal experience with this. There is a two component epoxy/polyurethane adhesive available that will warrant this installation in writing. It is called SILOVIL 3000. This company also has a two-component pure epoxy resin that can be applied first for waterproofing against vapor emissions, not hydrostatic pressure though. This product is called PRIMER EP 21. I am currently investigating this installation process.
It is fairly new to the states but has been used in Europe for many years.

Egypt's Red Sea coast runs from the Gulf of Suez in the north to the Sundanese border in the south. It is, effectively, the east coast of mainland Egypt looking across the sea to Sinai. Looking away from the desert and out from the coastline, you will find islands reachable on short boat trips and each with their own individual appeal.
It doesn't take much to get a new perspective on a city and whether you know it like the back of your hand or are just visiting for a few days, an inspirational tour could help you see somewhere in a whole new light. Increasingly popular among tourists around the world, unique walking tours and niche guided tours can now be found in cities everywhere.
For most of us, travel is one of life's biggest pleasures. We hop on board a plane, leave our lives behind, and absorb ourselves in a different way of life. We relax on beaches and explore cities. A few times while we're away, we'll utter the words "I don't want to go home" and "I wish I could stay here forever". But how true is that?
Situated almost exactly where the shoelaces would be on the boot of Italy, which is how I described its location to almost everyone who asked and received instant recognition, the Amalfi Coast is made up of several towns spanning an unfathomably picturesque coastline, easily one of the most beautiful in the world, as a quick Google will confirm.
The 9-5 life isn't for all of us and with the ever expanding opportunities presented to us by the internet more and more of us are looking at new ways to make money, ways that also allow us to live with flexibility and get much more out of life. Here are 5 reasons why you should quit your job to go travelling.
Being an intrepid traveller is both a gift and a curse. Your natural curiosity takes you to the most incredible places on the planet, places other people could only dream of. But inquisitiveness doesn't always work out. If you find yourself facing a travel disaster, it can be extremely stressful. Here are 7 common travel disasters and tips on how to deal with them...
Throughout these journeys I have developed my own travel style. I know what I like and what I don't. I know the best ways to get what I want out of a trip. However, my attitude is very different compared to the way I approached travel ten years ago. So, how interesting would it be to go back in time and give my younger self some travel advice?
Situated to the north of the UK and almost completely surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, Scotland is a magically scenic destination. Once used for beach pictures in an advert for Thailand, there's no doubting Scotland's claim to being one of the most beautiful places in the world, you just need to be prepared to handle the 'temperamental' weather!
By re-jigging your spending habits, you can spend the same amount of money (or less) and get so much more for it. Essentially having a luxury holiday for less cash. This is how I've been travelling for years - knowing exactly where I want to spend money, and exactly where we can opt for cheap (without it effecting too much).

Stars and Frights Forever? Uncle Sam (Blu-ray)
Like a ratty old blanket in the back of your car that you just can't bear to part with, Uncle Sam is one of those old reliable relics, a horror film with the early '80s ideal of terror so perfectly ingrained in its celluloid that you don't really care that it's strangely subpar most of the time.

: The
PICGroove Mod PS3 SixAxis Guide
is now available as promised for those interested in JailBreaking your PS3 with a PlayStation 3 SixAxis Controller!
at Spanish site Elotrolado.net (linked above) posted a video (below) of what appears to be a PS3 JailBroken using a PlayStation 3 SixAxis controller.
According to
on IRC he plans to share a guide tomorrow on how it was done. When asked if the controller is usable afterwards he confirmed that it does indeed work normally on the PS3.
Below is the video courtesy of
via YouTube along with a rough translation of his post, as follows:
"Start by telling you, not to say bad words are one of those many people that maybe criticize the work of others without having done any research or evidence.
Give me a little sorry for yourself and for those who doubt this project because I've spent a bit of my time and achieved what I wanted to do, not having a separate usb device, I wanted to run from the command Psgroove Sixsaxis and step be updatable via PC with just the controller and a USB cable for your bad luck has made the video I'm uploading it now takes a bit because my connection is shared.
If you wait about 30 minutes more or less what you see, long time I was interested by the different consoles, as amended.
I tell you to cool something that was the first to repair a bad nand extracted from a xbox 360, I have a couple of tutorials that many served him.
And thanks to EOL and many people who make this forum what is now really. Tomorrow I will have to make the tutorial and make the respective tests. Greetings."

Can someone tell me what is it on those two attachments which are not mentioned in the manual ??
Is it some sort of LVP programmer on COMport ??
Is it ART 2003 ? Can someone post schematics on this ?

Could some one plz convert the .hex to a pic 18f4550? I read that the 2550 and the 4550 are the same so i'm guess we can use the same hex but i'm not sure about that.
I seached a lot for the PIC18F2550 but every where it will be sold out and next bath will be arrive to 9.12. or something else.
That's too long to wait and the PIC18F4550 are available every where. So if some one can port the hex to 4550 (if we can not use the same hex as for 2550) a lot of people where really exited.

It uses a bit more than that - PIC chip - but it's still cheap as chips
Memory on it's own is pretty much useless unless you have a processor / programmable chip to go with it to actually run the code.

If you put in some work you could also upgrade the Blu Tooth ad some autotofire and even add some button codes to make games like Tekken really easy, you just need to know what you are doing. I bet the Guys that made those copies controllers that support Blu Tooth without any dongle could give it a shot.
I was at mediamark in sweden and I saw 3rd party controllers with logos that it was endorsed by PS3, I smell a law suit if they disable all the hardware they endorsed since they got like 50% of the profit alone just for the endorsment. What should these companies do now? lay down and die like sony would prefer most or get their stock of merchandise bought up by sony and sieze to exist. It is true the bigggest players in the rom make the rules.
If sony says jump they alll have to jump even if it's from the 30th floors roof. Everybody knows Sony is mostly if not etneirly Japanesse, and if they want to fall on their sword out of shame because they didn't se this comming they are welcome to it, however they shouldn't force all the other people who saw this to do the same. They were fairly warned in the media when they took away other OS support.
However they bow to no one since they are "Sony" and therefor always right... Exept this time maybe, with all the answers at hand they shouldn't have dismantled Other OS Support but make it a bigger part of the experience. Releasing the brakes for the CPU/GPU and the memory so people could use it as a ordinary HTPC with Linux and be able to use all the software any other HTPC could use. WITH their multi cored Cell Processor they would erease companys as tvix or popcorn hour and we the consumers wouldn't neet to have 10 difftrent things connected to our television.
But no they are Sony and they make up the rues we should play their games and buy their Blu Ray movies that we already payed for once ore twice or maybe even 3 times for the same titles, Buying then on VHS or BETA a very few of us bougt an extensive library of Laser disk movies and I myself have over 2 thousand original movies on DVD i had like 4 thousand on VHS but that was 20 years ago, I gave the most of them away when I sold my S-VHS Video to a friend for a totalic symbolic sum of 100 Swedish kronor, its like $15 I payed 5 years earlier like 20 thousand swedish kronor for the One world Panasonic S-VHS Player, back then it was like 80 thousand now.
it looked great with a giant display with a map as I can rememer it. I was dissapointed that I couldn't buy movies in S-VHS 20 thousand was like $3000 in todays value it would be more then $10 000 but I always had to have the best. Today despite it's hightech apeal S-VHS became a failure, and now I am greatful I didn't buy a few thousand movies in S-VHS. I friend invested in a Laser Disk player soon after saying I was a fool throwing money on something that was already dead.
If you used the S-VHS super expensive tapes you could copy laser Disks and you wouldn't notice the difference however the emty tapes were more expensive then original movies so it was never a hit. S-VHS reamained only for exclusive peple who wanted the best and thats why it never went down in price, not even the empty 1 hour tapes that couldn't even fit a movie. Laser Disks was a faiulure also and my friend with nearlt 2 thousand movies said it would be worth more when it's out of the picture. having a Laser Disk with 2 thousand movies costed back then more then a porce or another diabolic car.
He said he just needed to sit on it and it would be worth more then what he payed I remmember a specific movie he was playing with Al Pacino and Ellen Barkin, Sea of Love I belive, it was new back then to give you a perpective how long back this was he had the best Lser Disk Player that changed sides by itself, he was like my in that way, way buy something god when there existed something better.
I always payed the extra money to get the modell ahead and so did he, wasn't many Laser Disk Players that changed sides by itself. The movie was as big as a Vinyl musik album but the weight was almost tvice as mutch, so the player didn't really fplip the Disk over it had 2 lasers instead one under and one over and you noticed the switch, the switch was fast for that time but you still could read the flip disk message on the blue background.
Fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me however hollywood and sony think people can be fooled over and over without holding any grudge. I am still holding to my DVD collection 90% of them still has the plastic foil on them since I already seen them long time ago and new movies I prefer seing at a cinema so no need to open up the DVD movie and let dust in. However it still feels like I payed for the same cat twice.
The VHS tapes I had to get rid of because it took to mutch place and when a nostalgic friend was intrested I sold him everything I could find for a symbolic price. We still had taxes when we gave somebody a gift over a certain value so selling it cheap was a lophole. If he didn't pay me the 100 Kronor he would instead need to pay several thousand to the state. It was like 15 cardboard boxes with movies and the "ONe World" Panasonic player. It was worthless but the tax office has a vivid imagination, and I prefer doing my bussines safe.
Sony wants me to do this over and over again every time they come with a slightly better format throw away all my DVD's and and starting buying Blu Rays Like a crazy person. I most admit I try to get everything new on Blu Ray however they still hold out on me. I am a sucker for tv Shows and those cant be found on Blu Ray, so they are literally forcing me to buy. I don't really care about copyright anymore, they have scrued more money out of me then anyone else. I just hold on to My dvd's and I get every singel DVD I own IN MKV format so I can watch it in 1080p and I can fit my whole dvd collection on 10 of those 2TB hardives and then I get 1080p, it's a shame I don't get them subtitled as I payed for them from the begining but you win some and you loose some.
Like I said before fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.
They pay of politicians, Judges to change the llaws so they can scrue people over and over. I am a Law abbiding citizen but I also follow a moral code, If the laws conflict with my moral code, the code wins every time. As long you can buy new laws the world isn't perfect.
And the big Companys are diabolical, if they could sell you your own kidney then they would be satisfied. If a large company make the same profit 2 years in a row their lawyers actually argue that they loose money. Their profits need to increase every year so they don't need to lay people off. The morrons don't really understand the world, there is a ballance, if someone makes a dime some else has to lose the same dime.
So if every company thinks like that and their profits need to increas from year to year the only place they can squize the money from is from the people because companys use same lawyers. this doesn't sound so bad on a year to year basis. So people eat cheaper food this year however the companys think like that every year. If the profit isnät begger from year to year it's a loss to them no matter they are still making alot of money.
Think this happening in 10 years or 100 years. In the end the employees actually has to pay the company to work there and their biology has to change so they actually make energi by working not using it up, they actually need to throw up food instead of eating it. not only the worker but their children aswell. it would be rather hard to sell the throwed up food since everybody is doing it and nobody eats. even if your body produced food so you could pay the companys that you work for them they would still need to make more every year. There is actually no chance we produse energi by moving, we will consume energy that way however alla the big companys plans are wrong!!!!
Why can't they be satisfied they made the same profit this year as the year before? because they are morrons that's why the lways make mistakes like this. In swedish there is a say, if you put to mutch in your mouth there is a risk you open your mouth to mutch and you lose everything you already have put there. It sounds really mutch better in swedish but it's mostly about greed, wnem it's going well why take the chance and lose everything by wanting a little more.
Just what happened to Sony Taking Away other OS was their greed talkning. Did they really think they were so clever that nobody could hack their machine? or did them leave their machine alone since they already supported linux partly. Taking away Linux for hackers made them real mad and Sony Payed the price.
I am pretty sure the person that had the briliant idea to take away the Other OS support already falle on his sword since it's japan and everything.
Sonys only chance to please hackers and end the war is to make a official firmware with other os support and total hardware usage in that OS they should even throw in PS1 and PS 2 emulation, the should put all their available people to make patches for old games to make like 80-90% of the games working.
Maybe then the hackers stop with what they are doing and install XBMC in the PS 3 Linux and start watching 1080p movies instead of trying to destroy sony. And don't worry sony you will be able to sell a movie per person in some format. trying to sell the same thing on diffrent medias is cheating at least, I myself would call it stealing especially if you sell the same movie to the same person twice, like once on DVD and once on Blu Ray. My blood boils when I think what kind of morrons they take us for.
They even plan this, sometimes the blu Ray's comes a week or two later so the can sell a DVD to everybody first. This happens mostly with popular movies. They take adventage people can't wait.
I think Movies should be seling at the same time they are on cinema, it feels like some kind of fraud. If you want to watch it pay for the cinema and if you like to own it buy it 6 months later. The choice should be ours but this way works best to steal all our hard earned money, that's why it will never stop. And they put our children as adults trough the court system because a 10 years old filmed 10 seconds of shrek on a really bad mobile phone camera it was really long time ago so the cameras were really crappy, you could barly recognise who was Shrek and who was fiona, and that was before all the weight gain.
I am sure the security guard that ruined that family was really proud of himself. If he was a humanbeing he would sit beside her and explain you couldn't even take pictures at the cinema because it was illegal and then he could have ereased the 10 seconds she recorded. I am quite sure she wasn't in any release group if I was a security guard there I would just explaned it to her instead of busting her an ruining her evening. Some people are evil trough the core, I bet he though he would get a promotion for a job well done. Hopes the jerk will burn in hell if there is something similar...

Future of Nursing Initiative
THURSDAY, July 15 (HealthDay News) -- In community-based intervention programs to prevent obesity in children, those targeting children under 5 years of age have been most effective, those targeting primary school aged children have been somewhat effective, and the effects of those targeting adolescents have varied, according to research presented at the International Congress on Obesity, held from July 11 to 15 in Stockholm, Sweden.
Boyd A. Swinburn, M.D., of Deakin University in Melbourne, Australia, reported findings from three community-based demonstration projects around Geelong, Australia. Each of the projects took a community capacity building approach over two to three years and had quasi-experimental designs with greater than 1,000 participants each in the intervention and comparison groups. One project focused on children under 5 years of age, another targeted primary school aged children, and the third targeted adolescents. The program targeting adolescents had similar sister projects in Fiji, Tonga, and Auckland, New Zealand.
The author found that the program targeting children under 5 years of age achieved substantial reductions (2.5 to 3.4 percentage points) in prevalence of overweight/obesity. In the program targeting primary school aged children, there were significant reductions in unhealthy weight gain but not in overweight/obesity prevalence. However, in the programs targeting adolescents across four countries, the interventions had a varied effect, depending on the population group, sometimes reducing overweight and obesity but sometimes having no effect.
"Our results, together with the evidence from other demonstration projects conducted elsewhere, suggest we should get moving to scale up efforts in the under-5s. There hasn't been that much research in this age group, but what has been done around the world indicates these children seem to be the most susceptible to change," Swinburn said in a statement.

I am a current masters in urban planning student, and I'm planning on a concentration in transportation planning.
My program allows planners to take classes in the engineering school which offers classes geared toward statistical modeling rather than transportation policy. My question is, what type of technical classes would be the most useful to take? Are there particular modeling programs that are more useful to know than others? Because I'm not a transportation engineer would you recommend just getting a feel for statistical traffic modeling or would you say the more classes the better? I'm in New York City so I am looking to focus on urban transportation issues.

Pipdog: Before and After Pictures?
My daughter called this morning and asked me to forward her some links to houses that were updated/renovated as she and her husband are beginning to think along those lines. Actually, it's more accurate to say that she's finally getting HIM to think along those lines. I know you've posted some before and after photos, is there anywhere on line where they are all together?
Thank you!
Hi sorriso,
here's a couple before/after comparisons for you. I don't have true "before" photos because we did a lot of work prior to moving in (refinished the hardwoods, moved doorways, painted everything) and we hadn't moved in yet and didn't think to take photos before we started all that work. Some of the after photos show rooms that are still work in progress - we need curtains and artwork in our newly re-painted dining room, something on the wall in the bedroom over the white club chair and so on -- so these are more "progress" photos than "after" photos.

Banyan makes a number of errors. First - in regards to climate change - as serious as the problem may be, for a country of India's limited means, its does not make sense to devote scarce resources into emission caps, which will most likely be violated. Far better to encourage energy efficiency among consumers and industry. Secondly, if you start the "peace process" as starting with the Lahore Declaration of 1999 - over the course of the past 10 years, you have had a Pakistani invasion of Indian Kashmir, a hi-jacked airliner, an attack on Parliament, bombs placed on commuter trains, and most recently the Mumbai assualt.
Even if Islamabad dropped all its claims in Kashmir, it is becoming clear that there are enough independent actors within Pakistan that can carry out terrorism against India with little to fear from the authorities. Some bit players may face trial, but the heads of these terrorist groups roam freely. Zardari can barely venture out of his presidential compound. How can such a man deliver on any promises to India?
So what is Banyan's suggestion on permissible emission limits if should not be equal for every human being on the planet ? Should humans have differing rights to emissions based on Nationality, Colour of Skin, Wealth, or ??
India has been used by the West as an Excuse to do nothing for the last 10 years.
Since the West is responsible for over 90% of the Greenhouse gases over the last 50 years , it is their responsibility to find and start a reversing process - no excuses.
India has only one responsibility - to house and feed it's billion - at any cost.
Great propaganda piece from the Economist, that great beacon of Anglo-American world domination.
The article, firstly, desperately tries to influence India's policy makers and public to give near-suicidal concessions to Pakistan - so that the treacherous Pakis come to their aid in Afghanistan.
And, secondly, want's India to shackle its economic growth under the pretext of climate change.
I hope readers see through this ploy.
Banyan has lost serious credibility in trying to be too clever and weave unrelated points in addition to mixing facts and opinions.
Your article is sensible and largely factual so far as it focuses on Prime Minister Singh's past achievements, blunders, or failures. However, to confuse the recent developments on climate change by trying to position India as an obstacle and hide under your carpet the elephants in the room (US and Europe), you not only show a serious lack of understanding of the issues involved, but also reveal that your writing follows your personal agenda rather than any attempt to be objective.
Yes, half the 'human' world can sight emmissions-per-capita as the key metrics, as this is the only fair metric. The rest, Banyan, are attempts by the developed countries to shirk responsibility at the expense of poorer ones.
If the US and Europe won't pay for the cost of their past and continuing pollution, clever writers at the Economist will just look silly and conceited rallying behind such arguments. Reminds us of the Iraq war all over again - instructive to go back and read how conceited and wrong the Economist has been. Don't make it worse.
Wonder what is wrong with India's request of "emissions per head" and funny that Economist should say "without licensing" about Indian nuclear program like their is a world licensing authority formed through democracy !
Climate change & carbon emissions can only happen when the metrics used are "fair" and when developed nations support developing nations through funds/grants for new green technology development. Sticking to solutions that are suitable and efficient for developed nations would only mean Copenhagen would be another Doha.
Manmohan Singh often trades India's dignity away to get personal fame and accolades from the west. His oxford speech is a classic example where he brushed away decades of plunder, artificial famines and loot by the British empire and went on to say Indians are thankful for the English language, the modern school system and cricket! I guess when you are not an elected head of state, the people who didn't vote for you(that's everyone) come last after the west.
"—because India has other problems that perhaps only he can solve. The biggest of these concerns climate change.
.....India is emerging as one of the main obstacles to a global agreement. Though it is the fourth-biggest carbon-emitter, it refuses to promise to curb the growth of its emissions, arguing that these are still modest per Indian. That is a strong argument, but half the world can cite it...."
I could not stop laughing at how naive TE takes its readers to be. The biggest of these concerns is climate change - for whom? Not for India for sure. Yes, it is an important concern for India, but by no means the biggest. For the West, India's stance is probably the biggest concern they have with India. And that is really what TE is getting at.
"That is a strong argument, but half the world can cite it..."
Other than the 15% who live in the rich West, most of the rest of the world can cite it. But what is the relevence of that? The relevent fact is that it is a strong argument. So, please try to address the argument, and not with some sideways non-arguments.
Regarding Climate change:
The economist (or the "Banyan" as we mock it!) has gone crazy. It is wrong to even suggest that India is an obstacle to climate change deal due in Copengen later this year. It would have been better to forget India and concentrate on the developed (industrialised) countries' pollution which are perhaps 20 or 30 times more than us (it is an old but true story).
But unfortunately it isn't the case since it is "economist" magazine (a "western" mouthpiece). If we leave the "economist" to itself it will even end up blaming the Indians for the entire global warming (not surprising).
Rather concentrating on the negatives we can focus on the positive contribution made by India - like emitting low carbons to the atmosphere over decades (wisely) and our contribution to the development of new technologies in the 21st century (which is becoming visible day by day).
I think the "Banyan" is trying to be too smart but one day it's pants might trip off (we hope so).
"(India) refuses to promise to curb the growth of its emissions, arguing that these are still modest per Indian."
Modest? The use of the word modest here borders on falsehood. Minute would be more honestly in line with the facts.
"That is a strong argument, but half the world can cite it."
Should read 'That is a strong argument, AND half the world can cite it.' The half of the world that can not cite it should work to reduce their emissions until they can.
But of course you earth consuming monsters in Europe and the neo-Europes would never risk your own economic growth to do that, so you try to force the developing world to stop developing that way you can continue to drive your Hummers and eat meat three times a day, which you feel is your dog given right. Disgusting.
Dr Singh is a decent man and widely respected in India.
But he is also naive.
When the relatives of the terrorist attacks in Mumbai wept Pakistan did not accept that non state players killed 170 innocent people in a horrific mass murder.
All we say dialogue is fine, but let us be firm in matters of territorial integrity including Kashmir
I am surprised at the responses, so far, to the critique of the PM's track record and expectations from his current term. Now regarding climate change. The Industrial Revolution was a necessary phase in the evolution of current technology. Since, as a people, the Westerners were robustly engaged in research and development in every field of study the rest of the world benefited from the resulting failures and advancements without incurring the related costs in terms of money, capital investments, process failures, intellectual and emotional stresses. Equally, the West paid dearly in terms of social, political, moral and even religious upheavels for some of those discoveries and inventions. Further, along with the discoveries and inventions, the innovations and evolution in thought, intellectual awareness, business management systems and philosophy did not just happen without extracting steep cost and bloodshed. Mainly, it was the West that paid those costs. Rest of the world simply leapfrogged.
So now we come to this new threshold. Unfortunately, the developing countries instead of acknowledging their debt to the West are pointing fingers at the developed world, the Western economies, conveniently forgetting that they have already paid the price in blood, sweat and tears on behalf of rest of the world. The contradiction lies in not accepting the fact that they have simply piggybacked on the West's labour to achieve their present state of new found wealth while at the same time blaming the West for the natural phase it had to go through to not only get itself there but the fingerpointers as well. Oh, one final word: before you call me names I believe I should let you know I am Indian by birth.
"- but I warn you, those europeans are tricksie, if you're too far behind on implementing cleaner technologies you could find yourselves on the wrong end of some trade mechanism that puts up tarriffs against people who have large amounts of pollution/capita."
Fine. The Europeans have been at it for the past 500 years. That's what colonialism was all about - the colonies feeding and providing for the prosperity of the "mother" country.
Europe can erect non-tariff barriers under the guise of "cleaner technology".
But wouldn't European companies need the vast (and growing) markets in China and India?
Yes, the game got just a bit more complicated.
All the human-rights wallahs in the West who will pretend not to touch any product - even with a 10 ft bargepole - if it has been made by "slave labour", will happily import oil from Saudi Arabia. Despite the medieval oil-rich theocracy, and America's best friend, being one of the most repressive countries on earth.
There is little doubt that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh spearheaded contentious changes - liberalization in 1991 and the nuclear deal with the United States. India had little choice about the former. Most Indians neither know nor care how the latter will impinge on their lives. The real problems for India concern removal of poverty, social justice, education, and health care. He will be judged by posterity on his contribution to these.
It is interesting to read the 'weakness' of a visionary Indian leader, who will be remembered for transforming a closed economy to a leading economies of today's world. When most of the world economies are affected by recession, the Indian economy has shown its resilience. Also the leader was ready to sacrifice his 'chair' for signing the nuclear deal with US.
Now being a visionary leader he understands the loss of 'investment' (time and precious resources-human and money)in a war with Pakistan and using diplomacy to mend ways to boost trade, which will benefit the country in long-run. Salute the leader, whom the media or his opponents call as a 'weak PM'. We all know that war is not a solution to any problems as we have seen in across the world and only we need to find workable 'peace' solutions, which can limit further destruction or attacks.
Specifically related to climate change, most developed nations have done enough 'messing' the environment and now they want other developing nations to stick to their line, which is seen poorly by people at large. Kudos to PM Singh for not toeing the line of those 'environment polluters'.
Let the world know that finding 'workable solutions' are more important in each situation rather than limiting the progress of the nation and its people. Thus India's leader is a strong visionary for our times!
"That is a strong argument, but half the world can cite it."
So what. This statement is pure nonsense. Here are some facts: A person in the Unites States consumes about 27 times the amount of oil that is consumed in India; in Britain, about 17 times that in India. Yet in the US, gasoline sells for less than $3.00 a gallon.
The West is using India as a escape goat because their own politicians don't have the courage to tell the voters that they are the ones responsible for global warming. Grow up, and face the consequences of your own ignorance and stupidity. I live in the West and applaud India for standing up to the bullies in the West.
Prime Minister Singh is indeed a transformational leader. However, the two achievements which this article credits him with - the economic reforms and the Indo-US nuclear deal - were not, as the article implies, broadly unpopular measures.
Although appealing, for the majority of Indians they were secondary issues. Instead voting decisions are based on more immediate and narrow domestic interests.
Unfortunately the fractured polity that has arisen as a representation of the myriad local interests has only succeeded in providing the power of denial to marginal players, while denying real authority to anybody. To compound this handicap the political class has shown itself to be primarily interested in the business of keeping itself in business.
In such an atmosphere a small minority of ideological dinosaurs has been able to thwart progress of any sort because they continue to be committed to their failed ideology, while the majority of politicians continue to be divided by the pursuit of their personal interests.
This is where Prime Minister Singh has shown himself to be special. The path he has pursued with economic reforms and the nuclear deal was obvious to most as being beneficial for the country. However, he was the only one who put the country's interest before his own.
With china/russia/brazil even africa all looking forward to high growth levels and generally peaceful neighbours, it's in india's and pakistan's interest to make peace and move forward peacefully and develop their economies qwickly, otherwise other regions will have considereably more power in a decade and both nations will be left on the sidelines.
It's easy to divide, to be successful we all need to be united against violence
Elvis Presley,
PLease go sing songs in graceland, stop commenting on something you obviously have no idea about. Your commments are asinine and ridiculous and insulting
The west has been responsible for the industrial revolution and for a large number of inventions we use today, but the third owes nothing to them because the west has controlled most of the worlds resources for the last 300 years. The industrial revolution was achieved on the backbone on colonialism and plundering and pillaging of the natural resources of most of todays third world, not to mention slave labour. 200 years ago india and china controlled a larger part of world trade, by the time the british were done they were left with less 0.5% of the worlds trade.
If the west has paid in blood and sweat for the revolution, the third world has paid with their lives and future generations are still paying for it with theirs.
It's easy for Europe and the west to cut their emissions now that they have outsourced their manufacturing and pollution to countries like China and India. However, having breathed the toxic soup that passes off as air in urban India (and China), I think it's in the best interest of these countries to act now - otherwise they'll face rapidly rising health care costs and a far less productive workforce, not to mention a low quality of life that no amount of money can compensate for. Let the developed world pay the true cost of its consumption - not by building a few windmills, but by paying extra for the manufactured goods people purchase everyday.

No, it doesn't matter. Legally, under the GPL, they are required to distribute (upon request)....
Has anyone requested it?
If you read the article this is about WebCore not WebKit. Apples version of webkit is webkit. Webcore is licensed under BSD and LGPL. If apples changes where to the parts that are BSD licensed then they are under no obligation to release anything.
Why have they bothered with all this then? http://opensource.apple.com/ [apple.com]
Most of the packages for Mac OS X are not even GPLed, so Apple would not need to release any of the code for them.
One of the big issues companies have with FOSS is software patients.
Patents are not relevant here. If there were a patent issue, they couldn't use it at all, closing the source has no effect.
