Fall 2014 Edition of Turn Left Magazine
Read the Manifesto for a Socialist Canada
The document was written in 1999
by a number of SC activists, and
defines what our group stands for in
the fight for socialist democracy,
workers' rights and economic justice.
During the most recent elections, NDP leaders in various provinces copied the Third Way playbook and ran on so-called "moderate" campaigns to the centre, all of which were disasters, and that's putting it kindly.

NDP Socialist Caucus. Copyright 2015. All Rights Reserved.
Playing to the 'Middle Class', and Rather Short on Internal Democracy
It was one of the less well attended quarterly meetings of the Ontario NDP provincial council. And as one delegate put it, it was "one of the whitest council meetings in years."
An effort by the Socialist Caucus to get the meeting to direct the executive to provide a room for the SC to use during the Saturday lunch break won the support of about a quarter of the voting delegates at the council.
But after shifting from one spot to another, the SC did find an available, empty room (one booked by the party, which party officials neglected to mention to us). So we held an SC forum there on policies for the NDP federal election campaign, and provided a short update on the two strikes by university workers in Toronto.
Amazingly, 15 people found their way to the gathering. Three of them donated a total of $220 to rent a room for the SC forum at the next council meeting, which is expected to occur in June in Toronto.
At the SC forum there was a good discussion of four P's for the NDP federal campaign platform: Pharmacare, no Pipelines, much more Progressive Taxation, and Palestine (BDS against the Zionist apartheid state). Members supported my proposal that the SC initiate a petition to leader Tom Mulcair in support of our four P's. I will circulate a draft text very soon.
Most of the emphasis in ONDP leader Andrea Horwath's presentation on Saturday was on Liberal broken promises, rising fees, the sale of public assets, and how 'democracy matters.' But not so much concern for democracy inside the NDP, apparently.
The Treasurer revealed that the Ontario party now has 22,000 members, 6,000 of whom are in PACs (i.e. they give money each month to the NDP through their bank). Some emergency resolutions passed, one supporting doctor-assisted suicide.
At the Toronto regional caucus, several delegates spoke about the Toronto Area Council decision to organize a big conference to re-launch the NDP as a municipal party. One current city councillor present, Gord Perks, inveighed against the idea, and we answered him. There will be a big fight over this issue - that much is clear.
On Sunday, the OFL report was not delivered by Sid Ryan, as he was busy elsewhere, so it lacked fire and a sharp direction.
The visiting NDP federal president's report centred on preparations for the October 19 election, on fund raising (quel surprise), along with political themes - above all, an appeal to the "middle class". The federal NDP has thus far nominated 177 candidates, 41% of whom are women. In Ontario, 57 NDP candidates are nominated. The jet and busses are booked. They're ready to roll. And the tele fund raisers will keep calling every supper hour.
I asked a question about the four P's. Got applause for three of the issues. The answer from the front table, to put it politely, was evasive.
During the weekend gathering SC members sold close to $80 in booklets, buttons and press, mostly from a display table in the corridor next to the main meeting room.
In sum: even at a poorly attended NDP provincial council meeting, where militancy is at an ebb, socialists still enjoy significant support.
Petition to Federal New Democratic Party Leader Tom Mulcair
Sign the Petition Here
We, the undersigned, applaud Federal NDP Leader Tom Mulcair for advocating a national childcare plan, a $15/hour minimum wage, and for opposing repressive Bill C-51 and the extension of the bombing of Iraq, and into Syria.
At the same time we call on Tom Mulcair to advance, as a priority, the following policies, which we call the 4 P's, as part of the current NDP election platform:
- a national drug plan will save Canadians over $7 billion, and is urgently needed to improve public health, especially of seniors and the poor.
- the big drop in the price of oil presents a golden opportunity to oppose pipeline construction, to re-tool, and to go for green energy conversion (wind, hydro, solar, geothermal and biomass). To fund that gigantic energy shift it will be necessary to conscript the enormous accumulated wealth of the resource corporations by nationalizing Big Oil and Gas under workers' and community democratic control, while respecting Indigenous peoples' rights.
Progressive Taxation
- it will cost much money to provide $15/day childcare and other vital social expenditures required. The federal NDP should insist, not only on plugging tax loopholes, but on steeply taxing big business, the banks and the super-rich, while phasing out the regressive HST.
- over 2,000 residents of Gaza were slaughered by Israeli forces last summer. Benjamin Netanyahu and his racist Likhud coalition were re-elected after promising there will never be a Palestinian state. The two-state solution is dead. The alternative is a one-person, one-vote, democratic secular Palestine. We ask Tom Mulcair to support the demand of Palestinian unions, civil society and unions across Canada and around the world which call for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions against the Zionist state until its apartheid practices end.

Pétition au chef fédéral du Nouveau Parti démocratique, Thomas Mulcair
Nous, les soussignés, félicitons le chef du NPD fédéral, Thomas Mulcair, de préconiser un plan national de garderies, un salaire minimum de 15 $ / heure, et de s'opposer au répressif projet de loi C-51 et à l'extension du bombardement de l'Irak et de la Syrie.
Par la même occasion, nous demandons à Tom Mulcair de se doter des priorités politiques suivantes, que nous appelons les 4 P, dans le cadre de l'actuelle plate-forme électorale du NPD :
- Assurance médicament - Un plan national de médicaments permettra de faire économiser aux Canadiens plus de 7 milliards de dollars. Il est urgent d'améliorer la santé publique, en particulier celle des personnes âgées et des gens pauvres.
- La forte baisse du prix du pétrole présente une occasion en or de s'opposer à la construction de pipelines et de reconvertir l'économie canadienne vers l'énergie verte (éolienne, hydraulique, solaire, géothermique et biomasse). Pour financer ce changement gigantesque, il sera nécessaire de mobiliser l'énorme richesse accumulée des sociétés du secteur des ressources naturelles en nationalisant les transnationales du pétrole et du gaz sous le contrôle démocratique des travailleurs et travailleuses et de celui de la communauté tout en respectant les droits des peuples autochtones.
La fiscalité Progressive
- Il sera très coûteux d'offrir des services de garde à 15$ par jour et d'autres dépenses sociales vitales. Le NPD fédéral devrait insister non seulement pour bloquer les échappatoires fiscales mais aussi pour imposer fortement les grandes entreprises, les banques et les super-riches tout en éliminant progressivement la régressive taxe de vente harmonisée (TVH).
- Plus de 2 000 habitants de Gaza ont été massacrés par les forces israéliennes l'été dernier. Benjamin Netanyahu et sa raciste coalition Likhud ont été réélus après avoir promis qu'il n'y aura jamais un État palestinien. La solution de deux États est morte. L'alternative est une Palestine laïque et démocratique où chaque personne a un vote. Nous demandons à Tom Mulcair de soutenir la demande des syndicats palestiniens, de la société civile et des syndicats partout au Canada et dans le monde qui appellent au Boycott, Désinvestissement et Sanctions contre lÉtat sioniste jusqu'à ce qu'il mette fin à ses politiques d'apartheid.

looking for alternative art laptop
I am looking for an art laptop, but couldn't find any good leads on google. My main criteria is a good display, as I will use it mainly for painting; I will also do recording (with a M-audio Ftp) and the specs should be high enough that programs will run smoothly . (photoshop, zbrush, fruity loops, sonar)
Not interested in macbook pros, everyone has them and they don't run the software I own.
I'm a real sucker for stylish, sleek design (and no, this still doesn't make me interested in macbooks.) The Vaio Z-series looks pretty good but I don't know about display quality and it might be too expensive. (budget is around $1200)
Can anyone recommend a good alternative to macbook pros (performance-wise) that doesn't look like a carving board from the future? Your input is very much appreciated!

A good, decent sized screen will make for quite a heavy laptop which is something to keep in mind if you're planning on being particularly mobile with it. If it's just gonna sit on your desk maybe just get a desk-top PC, or a good monitor to connect the laptop to.
I have a dell inspiron 17...something and it runs all my software super smoothly and has a very very nice screen which is higher resolution than any of my monitors but it is an absolute animal to transport, so much so that I don't often take it anywhere. Might be worth having a look on dell, they're not exactly what I would call "Stylish and sleek" but you can customise them quite nicely.

thanks for your reply. I think 15" should be enough, as long as the pictures are crisp and colors vibrant. connecting an external monitor for home usage sounds like a good solution too. the thing is, I'm intending to use it in college, so there's probably a fair amount of traveling. I'm not sure if it's a particularly good idea to buy a desktop pc for the dorm.

I use a gaming laptop: http://reviews.cnet.com/laptops/gate...-32822855.html
If you don't have another desktop, I really think this is the way to go, since it's built for graphic performance and they tend to have large screen. It's a little bit heavy, but I used to take it to game development class and it's really not much of a bother.
Mine's a bit on the old side now, but still runs really well next to new models. I'm sure if you look around you can find something around the same price with higher specs. I paid $1200 for it from Best Buy (yeah yeah, not the best place to buy electronics XD).
May 14th, 2010 #5
Here's some more information.. XD
And as for actually purchasing a laptop, I would always recommend Newegg.com if you're buying online.
Here's a bunch in your price range: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...%20-%20%241250
Just make sure and read the reviews before buying.

I purchased a iPhone 5s clone from China a month ago. Out-of-the box i could make and receive calls, but i didn't get the mobile internet working.
Anyway, I tried rooting the device using MTK Droid Root & Tools, but the program told me it couldn't do it and linked me to this guide: hxxp://forum.china-iphone.ru/viewtopic.php?p=502084#p502084 (It's in russian, but Google Translate does a good job).
I followed the guide and successfully installed CWM and rooted, but when I booted up the phone I got nothing but "No service", and when I tried to register the phone on any mobile network it always said "Unable to connect to this network at this time".
Now this sounds like an IMEI issue to me, and stupid as I am, i didn't check the IMEI of the phone before I started the root process. If I now enter *#06# in the dialer, it displays what looks like a correct IMEI. Since it is a clone there is no physical IMEI on the device. There is one on the box and I tried changing to that but still got "No service". Again, since it's a clone, the one on the box might no be correct.
Is the problem I'm experiencing an IMEI issue, and if so, is there anything I can do?

The public can follow the pair 24 hours a day at www.georgiawildlife.com/ BerryEagleCam.
Berry staff and eagle watchers also track the birds on Facebook at www.facebook.com/berrycollegeeagles.
Airport Hilton parking garage being razed
DANIA BEACH, Fla. — A parking garage at the Airport Hilton in Dania Beach is being torn down to make way for a new runway at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport.
Demolition got underway this week at the two-story parking structure. The 400-room, eight-story hotel will remain open until April. It should be completely torn down by June.
The 8,000-foot south runway is expected to open later this year. Officials decided the hotel and parking garage would pose potential harm to planes using the new runway.

Today, effective mobile apps get serious work done –enabling salesforces to manage their pipelines, helping engineers inspect building plans, giving doctors the ability to review patient data, and more.
At Icreon, we develop serious (yet beautiful) apps on iPhone, iPad, Android & Windows. We're known for blending awarding winning design with serious, scalable, engineering-focused performance.
Understanding which devices you need to support at the outset.
Building out a user experience that is touch and hardware optimized.
Creating integration points that connect your data to your apps.
Capturing usability heuristics to understand how the apps are being used.
Reiterating on your mobile offerings to add new features and functionalities.
If you're attempting to utilize mobile to redefine your business' strategy, one of the first considerations that will likely come to mind is whether you want to develop a mobile app, mobile website, or possibly both. While mobile websites and mobile apps look very similar on the surface, they accomplish very different things.
This guide will provide a view into the business and development considerations behind mobile development initiatives, and help determine whether your technology initiatives merit a web-first or a mobile-first technology strategy.
Every mobile development project presents unique challenges, but deciding whether to develop a mobile application or mobile website does not have to be difficult. By defining the purpose and prioritizing all of your business and marketing considerations, you'll determine the mobile development solution that will best address those needs now, and well into the future.
What is the purpose of your mobile development initiative? Maybe your website isn't currently driving the mobile traffic you thought it would, or you want a mobile app that helps personalize the experience for the users, sending push notifications based on user preferences. Whatever the end goal, define it first and think about the app development and distribution second.
Think about the target audience your mobile app or mobile website project is meant for, and how frequently these people engage with your brand or business. How are they currently performing tasks, and will having a mobile website or mobile app help them simplify those tasks? Why are you providing them a mobile option? Are they going to invest the time to discover and download your app?
Imagine how users will interact with your mobile solution. This may be the single biggest thing that determines whether developing a mobile app or mobile website is appropriate going forward.
Determine whether you want mobile to deliver an engaging user experience across all browsers through strategic mobile website development, or a personalized experience in a mobile app.
For small and mid-sized businesses, budget will be a major consideration. Developing mobile applications for iOS and Android operating systems across multiple devices can quickly become resource-intensive. A more economically efficient option would be to develop a mobile website, which allows you to reach a broader audience within the same budget as a mobile app.
After you've thoroughly thought out the business case for your mobile development initiative and have established its purpose, it's time to take the development process into consideration.
The design, development, and deployment process of a mobile website is very similar to that of a standard website. Once it's live, it's immediately visible to anyone who visits the URL via a mobile browser. While developing a mobile website will present its own challenges, it's typically a much quicker implementation than that of a mobile app.
If you choose to develop a mobile app, a major consideration is whether the app will be developed for more than one operating system – iOS, Android, Blackberry and Windows. There is generally no easy and reliable way to build a mobile app for one operating system and port it to all the others, especially for apps that feature-rich and graphics-heavy.
The technologies behind developing a mobile website continue to improve, and mobile websites are emulating the look and feel of mobile apps. While the visuals of the two can be similar, the capabilities of a well-designed mobile app typically delivers a superior experience.
Because mobile websites send data between the server and the user, they don't deliver the same speed you'd get from a mobile app. Mobile apps are also developed for a single screen size, which makes it easier to design an aesthetically pleasing interface.
There's a major difference between updating a mobile websites and updating mobile apps. Updating a mobile-optimized website involves the same steps required to update your traditional website; publishing edits once will make the changes available everywhere.
Updating mobile apps may require submission approvals before being updated in their native app stores – Apple's App Store and Android's Google Play. Changes made on mobile apps also require users to download software updates. If your mobile app requires multiple platforms, even a simple update may require significant development resources and time.
Data and resources used in a mobile app are stored locally. Since the user interface operates independently of web-based interface elements, your mobile app will remain available when WiFi is not. If your users find themselves in situations where they will need to access the app while offline, then developing a mobile app is the better option.
If you've based your goals on marketing or communications initiatives, developing a mobile website should be the first step in your mobile strategy. A mobile website has a number of inherent advantages over mobile apps, including broader accessibility, compatibility and cost-effectiveness.
The following is a list of advantages you'll have developing a mobile website over mobile app:
A mobile website is instantly accessible to all users, while mobile apps require an initial download and installation. A mobile website is much more dynamic than a mobile app in terms of pure flexibility to update content. If you want to change the design of a mobile website you simply publish the edit once, and the changes are immediately visible.
Updating mobile applications requires the updates to be pushed to users, which then must be downloaded in order to update the app on each type of device.
Device Agnostic
A single mobile website can reach users across different mobile devices, whereas mobile apps generally require development of a native version for each type of device. A mobile website will be a "design once, deploy everywhere" solution.
Cost Effective
Developing a mobile website is more time-consuming and cost-effective than developing a mobile application. This holds especially true if you want your mobile app to have a presence on different platforms.
Keep in mind that the development of both a mobile website and mobile app don't end with the initial launch. Upgrades, testing, compatibility issues and ongoing development are much less expensive for a website than an app.
Despite the many benefits of a mobile website, mobile apps are still very popular, and there are a number of scenarios where a mobile app is a better fit for what you want to accomplish.
Generally speaking, the following needs would be better fulfilled by mobile app development:
Personalization – if users are going to be using your mobile option in a personalized fashion, think OneNote or Box – then a mobile app is the better choice. Such mobile apps can deploy push notifications and custom alerts tailored to user preferences, which makes the user experience much more personalized than that of a mobile website.
Native Functionality Required - mobile website browsers are good for accessing certain mobile-specific functions like click-to-call, messaging and GPS. But if you want the ability to access a user's camera, processing power, or send push notifications, integration of specific phones features are easier to do through strategic app development.
No Connection Required – Primary functionalities of your mobile app may not require internet access, something a mobile website cannot do.
The ultimate goal in mobile development is to receive an optimal return on your investment. You should avoid wasting precious time and money building a mobile app to do something basic that ultimately can be achieved with a mobile website.
Within technology circles, the hype and buzz around new web and mobile app development trends can be excessive. Just think Apple versus Android. There are literally entire publications devoted to demonizing one while praising the other (i.e. CultOfMac and Android Police).
In the realm of mobile app development, there are few issues that have been at the center of such heated debate as the battle between HTML5 and Native app development.
HTML5 development is the more economical way to build mobile apps that developers 'write once, and run anywhere'. Native app development is viewed as the higher quality option. It requires more resources and talent but results in a mobile app that is highly optimized for specific devices.
Staying true to our own mantra at Icreon to act as 'technology agnostics', here is a straightforward view of the competing benefits and limitations of HTML5 and native app development.
Just over 30% of Fortune 500 companies use HTML5 for web development, and 34 of the top 100 websites in the world were built using HTML5. While the viability of HTML5 development for web sites is acknowledged, mobile apps developed with the language are still acquiring traction.
When developing mobile apps with HTML5, the app is written and then placed in a wrapper of code (like Web View) to make it compatible with iOS, Windows 8, or Android. The quality and responsiveness of mobile apps are reduced to some extent due to the abstraction.
Such mobile apps can work exceptionally well across multiple devices but they cannot physically access device specific features. Without using services like Titanium or Rhomobile, HTML5 mobile apps are unable to access push notifications, camera functions, GPS data, or accelerometer information. Without easy access to such components an app developer cannot incorporate many popular functions.
A major benefit for using HTML5 development for mobile is the larger pool of developers who can comprehend the language. Programming native apps with software development tools like Xcode and Visual Studio on the other hand are more programming intensive, resulting in a smaller pool of experts.
The debate between HTML5 development and native app development is similar to the debate between off-the-shelf and custom software. Both have their ideal use cases, and both have their caveats to be aware of.
One data point that may clear up the debate rests with what app developers prefer. Out of all the mobile apps developed, 67% have been built on native platforms with just 17% built with HTML5. App Developers by far prefer building native mobile apps.
Here are the native programming languages mobile developers rely on:
Users also spend about 87% of their total time on mobile devices interacting with native apps. One main reason for this statistic can rest in the familiar UI design of native apps. Native apps usually mimic the design aesthetic and user experience of either the Android, iOS or Windows 8 operating system.
Finding app developers that are well versed in development for leading mobile platforms is admittedly harder than finding those that are proficient in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Prior to deciding on an app development method, it is crucial to assess the audience. Determine which segment of users are using specific device types and decide from there.
High profile mobile apps are serving as the foundation for billion dollar companies (i.e. Instagram, Waze, and Snapchat). While there is much enthusiasm towards mobile, the first choice a brand or individual must make prior to app development is the choice between HTML5 and Native apps.
According to VentureBeat, Android's worldwide growth continues to outpace its mobile competitors, and consumers continue to purchase more Android devices than ever before. Due to these trends, many brands are aiming to strengthen their market presence by distributing brand specific Android apps.
Brands can improve their performance internally as well as drive brand engagement with customers via Android apps. However, investments in Android app development must incorporate certain features and trends in order to offer a mobile experience that provides legitimate value.
Customer-facing Android apps are a marketing channel through which businesses can attract new customers. Some of the business functions that external users (such as customers, suppliers and partners) perform through a brand's customer-facing Android app include:
A designated Android app can help brand's use mobile-specific features like the accelerometer, push notifications or contacts list to extract marketing data. Many of today's customers are more likely to respond to mobile notifications than email or other traditional forms of communication.
By using mobile geo-location data as well as demographic information, personalized advertisements can be highly targeted to a specific location and customer type. In today's competitive landscape customer-facing Android apps can help brands attract and retain and attract customers.
Enterprise mobile apps are designed for employees to help them perform their daily operations, and are never seen by the customer. Enterprises across the board are creating custom mobile apps to support their internal business needs. Almost every aspect of work can be digitized through mobile apps (i.e. filing expense reports, securely signing documents, and filing for leave with HR).
Customized enterprise mobile apps can be broken down into two groups – vendor apps and enterprise specific apps. First, there are mobile app development companies who can develop a wide range of enterprise apps that are then customized for a particular brand. Secondly, there are custom mobile apps designed specifically for a particular enterprise. The main goal with these apps is to make complex desktop-oriented applications work seamlessly on mobile devices.
Whether for the internal employee or the potential prospective customer, there is a mobile app for everyone. Businesses should consider Android apps as a part of their customer facing and internal employee mobile strategies depending on the circumstance.
If a business is considering going through the process of developing an app fit to their needs, the team in charge should consider the most popular devices used by their workforce. If a company recently distributed Android tablets to their workforce, a selection of Android mobile apps should follow.
On average, users look at smartphones 100 times a day. Combine that with the expectation that by 2017 there will be 2.5 billion smartphone users and over 10 million mobile apps, you'll understand why brands and businesses have shifted focus toward mobile initiatives.
Mobile creates new ways to connect with customers, deliver exceptional service, and better equip your workforce. Whether it's for customers or employees, there are mobility solutions that can fill unique gaps in customer journeys and employee workflows that didn't exist years ago.
If you're having trouble identifying how mobile fits into your overall technology ecosystem, this list covers the different moments mobile users run into most often and how you can catch their attention in that moment.
As consumers continue to turn to their smartphones to guide them in their buying decisions, businesses and braned need to ensure all relevant information is available to a user whenever, and wherever they need it.
A customer in Best Buy looking to see reviews and product details on streaming media players is able to quickly do so on their phone. Airlines make flights immediately available for users looking to book flights on the go. Today's consumers are using phones to educate themselves in their immediate context, and brands must be there to deliver the information.
Mobile can create a more knowledgeable sales team by providing complete customer information whenever, wherever they need it. A salesman with the ability to tap into transaction history or a product catalog while on the phone, or even in person, is in better position to help a prospective customer. A sales manager that can quickly retrieve sales results over the last quarter during the commute to a sales meeting will deliver a better presentation.
As an example, Acision uses mobile for employees to better assist customers with an in-app video chat. The employees can see what the customer is viewing as well as their entire purchase history, both in real time. This allows them to identify areas where the customer needs more information which ultimately makes for an easier sell, and even better, upsell.
China Eastern Airlines uses mobile devices to assign maintenance staff based on demand for services at the gate. The City of Westminster enables workers to control streetlights for safety and maintenance, all from the convenience of a tablet. ITAD, a technology recycling company, supplies their field service agents with a mobile device to scan items on the spot for quicker information input and stock updates, allowing for more efficient inventory control.
Giving workers mobile access to necessary information for them to do their job better will make for more efficient employees. Employees looking to prep for a meeting on the go can access the company CRM on their phone to review notes and retrieve important sales results. Restaurant owners can give workers an opportunity to collaborate and manage shifts with an app like HotSchedules. By having information available at all times, employees can better communicate with each other.
Utilize mobile to continue to market to users that are already engaged with your brand. For instance, airlines use mobile to allow users to request an upgrade on their flight, or request access to the lounge – a quick and easy upsell in the click of a button without any human interaction. Spotify sends push notifications to alert users of new songs or albums from their favorite artists. Walgreen's alerts customers when their prescriptions are ready for pick up.
Finding different ways to further market to customers who are already engaged with your brand will increase their lifetime value.
Companies can gain a competitive edge by providing a mobile extension to a product or service that ultimately enhances the user experience. For example Nest, the innovative self-learning thermostat, uses mobile to allow users to change the temperature in their house from any location. If a user knows they'll be arriving home earlier than expected, they can use the mobile app to warm their house during their commute home. HBO uses their mobile app, HBOGO, to allow tablet and phone users to view all available shows no matter their location.
Going forward, we'll see companies begin to identify unique areas in customer journeys and employee workflows where a mobile solution will enhance the overall experience, and capitalize on it.

Yellen says full US employment coming into view, slowly
Published on Apr 17, 2014 2:16 AM
NEW YORK (REUTERS) - Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen said on Wednesday the US economy appeared to be slowly moving toward full employment, but that it would need help from the central bank for some time to come.
In her second public speech since taking the Fed's helm, Ms Yellen said it was "quite plausible" the economy would be back to near full employment and a healthier level of inflation by the end of 2016. "I do think we are seeing very meaningful progress, although clearly ... the goal has not been achieved at this point," she told the Economic Club of New York.
Ms Yellen used her speech to provide a monetary policy road map of sorts to one of the Fed's most important constituencies - Wall Street.
How long rates will stay near zero, she said, will depend on how far the US economy remains from the central bank's employment and inflation goals, and how long it will likely take to meet them. She stressed that the Fed would respond to shifting economic conditions as it judges when to finally tighten monetary policy after years of unprecedented stimulus.

Multi-path transport is an important mechanism for supporting video communications in multihop wireless networks. In this paper, we investigate the joint problem of optimal path selection and rate allocation for multiple video sessions in a wireless mesh network. We present a mathematical formulation to optimize the application level performance (i.e., video distortion) in the context of path selection and rate allocation. For this complex optimization problem, we propose a branch-and-bound based solution procedure, embedded with the reformulation-linearization technique (RLT) that can produce (1-epsiv)-optimal solutions for any small epsiv . This result is significant as it not only provides theoretical understanding of this problem, but also offers a performance benchmark for any future proposed distributed algorithm and protocol for this problem. Simulation results are also provided to demonstrate the efficacy of the solution procedure.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH2
The Lumix GH2, more so than its GF1 and GF2 counterparts, is built on the form factor of a traditional DSLR. The lack of a mirror box and everything that makes Micro Four Thirds so micro means that it's substantially smaller than any currently available DSLR. New to the GH2 is a 16.05 megapixel Live MOS sensor. The ISO range stretches up to 12800, and the new sensor offers a faster readout speed bumping up full-resolution burst shooting to 5 frames per second. The GH2's touchscreen is one of its primary differentiating features from the GH1. The touchscreen offers touch shutter and touch AF functions. You'll either like these options and use them or ignore them completely, and that's just fine with Panasonic. More than enough physical controls are provided, making the touchscreen a take-it-or-leave it feature.
- Good image quality
- Sharp EVF
- Compact body and kit lens
- Cost
- Dense menu system
- LCD tough to view outside
Quick Take
The Panasonic GH2 builds on the already solid foundation of the GH1 and G2. It produces excellent image quality from an exceptionally small camera body.

GeForce4 TI 4200 driver for RedHat 8.0 (2.4.18_19.8.0)
Does anyone have a version of the nVidia GeForce4 driver for RedHat 8.0 that works with the 2.4.18_19.8.0 kernel ? The latest nVidia drivers are for 2.4.18_18.8.0 which if you force load under the later kernel has lots of unresolved link dependencies (and so doesn't load).
Get the source RPM packages. There's a section in the README about how to install from the source. Basically an extra step using rpmbuild. Pretty straightforward as long as you follow the directions! :)
Thanks, JND. I found an article that explained how to build the driver, so I think I'll give that a shot. Hopefully it'll just be a recompile. I'll post a follow up.
Excellent! One other item of note...the newest (1.0-4191) drivers have a bug that cause some slow performance in 2D (set your desktop up with no wallpaper to work around it). I ended up reverting to the previous version of the drivers (1.0-3123). But then again, I have an old GF2...
Bless you, JND !
Recompiling the drivers under 2.4.18_19.8.0 did the trick. The new (4191) driver loads and runs just fine ! As you mentioned, repaint performance isn't great and is particularly noticeable when dragging a window.
The only problem I have now is that the refresh rate is way too high for the monitor I'm using (it's a Sun branded Sony Trinitron GDM-20E20). I had to plug in another monitor to see the desktop. I changed the monitor setting using RedHat's desktop app. and restarted X but it insists on picking a bad refresh rate. I've dabbled with XF86Config settings before but without much success. Do you have any ideas about (a) how to find out what the max refresh rates are for my monitor and (b) what to put in XF86Config ?
Thanks again for teaching me nVidia fishing :-)
Try this link:
Thanks JB !
I plugged the values for the GDM-20E20 from monitorworld into XF86Config, restarted X and what do you know. ? 1280x1024 at a refresh rate the monitor could handle ! My faith in XF86Config is restored.
Give that man a cookie ! :cool2:

Success Story Meet Jeyapalan who came to Australia five years ago from Sri Lanka
"When I came to Australia, I didn't know any English. A friend told me about SydWest and I discovered that there was a Tamil caseworker who spoke my language which was good. She was able to interpret for me and help me with my questions. There were many challenges when I first came to Australia, but here I am free to improve myself. I decided I didn't want to rely on Centrelink for money and quickly found a job. My SydWest caseworker also helped me to set up an ABN and business number so I could start a business. My dream is that I can grow my business, own a home and provide a good education for my son."

It's been quite a journey these past few years since we decided it was high time someone took the work of Hugh "Shug '90" McKenna and collected it into a single volume. Of course, we didn't stop there, leaving no stone (and, well, sock, newspaper or rubbish bag) unturned to bring you 3 utterly comprehensive collections of John G. Miller's life's work (thus far!). Add to that roster one of Glasgow's most respected comic stalwarts Dave Alexander and his, ahem, Marvellous Mighty MacBam Brothers and you'd be forgiven for thinking we'd have left it at that, but….
….you'd be wrong! Somehow we found the time to collate and sift through (and collate and sift yet again) the vast amount of work left behind by the late Paddy "Pudsy" Morris, thereby coaxing his long-awaited Big Book of Pudsy into mortal existence. Star Trudge, Elexender Browne, Braw! and Big Moff have come and kind of gone (if Big Moff ever even came at all, er….) and have been superceded (with the emphasis on "super") by Rob Miller's own Life in the Buckfast Lane and The Headventures of Kounter Kultyur Kevn. Even now we refuse to rest on our laurels as 3-4 more titles threaten to bubble over as we head into 2014. Stay tuned in….

Automatic asset bundling and deployment
Easily concatenate and minify assets, then send them to Amazon S3.
To install Igneous, just use npm:
npm install igneous
To use Igneous, you first require the module and set your AWS configuration. After that you supply a list of file flows you want to concatenate and send off to S3, using the final filename of each flow as the key:
var igneous = require'igneous'; igneousset 'aws_key' 'TEST' ;igneousset 'aws_secret' 'TEST' ;igneousset 's3_bucket' 'TEST' ; igneouscreateFlows 'stylesheets.css': type: 'css' files: 'styles/layout.css' 'styles/red.css' compress: true 'scripts.js': type: 'js' files: 'scripts/player.js' 'scripts/item.js' compress: true ;
When igneous.createFlows runs, it concatenates the files in each flow and sends them off to S3, returning their new URL with a timestamp parameter. This URL can be accessed in the following ways:
From there it's a simple task to pass these URLs into markup or a template object.

How to Mourn
Four Parts:Understanding Your Unique GriefTaking Care of YourselfGetting SupportUnderstanding the Five Stages of Mourning
Loss is one of the most difficult elements of life to come to terms with. Whether you have lost a loved one, an important relationship has ended, or a large change has occurred in your life, you will need to grieve. Mourning is emotionally draining, but when you are equipped with knowledge about the nature of grief and how you can help yourself to find peace, this tremendously tough period in your life will become easier.
Part 1 of 4: Understanding Your Unique Grief
1Know that everyone has their own unique experience with grief. No one else will grieve in exactly the same way you do. If you feel like you are reacting differently than other people, know that that is completely fine. Allow yourself to feel your own unique emotions and accept your uniquely painful experience. There is no typical loss, which means there is not typical response to loss.[1]Ad
2Understand that 'stages' of mourning are not concrete. The different stages of death mentioned in this article are based on research that began with psychiatrist Elisabeth Kübler-Ross' studies in 1969. Since then, many other psychiatrists and doctors have added their own thoughts on the stages of grief and mourning. It is believed that there are five general stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. However, there is no real order that these steps go in. Some people experience two or three steps at once, while others never experience any of them. Mourning is a very individual experience--this article just offers a guide of sorts to help you through what you may experience.[2]
3Know that there is no true time frame when it comes to mourning. Your grief may stay with you for weeks or months, or your mourning process may take years. What is important to know is that some days will be better than others. Accept each day as it comes. One morning, you may wake up and feel at peace with what has happened. Do not get down on yourself if the next day, you wake up feeling sad again--grief comes and goes.[3]
- Some researchers describe the mourning process as a roller coaster. At first, as with a roller coaster ride, the low points may be deeper than they are later on in your life. However, there will also be ups that come with the downs.
4Know that there are many kinds of mourning. Mourning does not just refer to the grief over the death of a loved one. You can mourn the ending of a relationship or the loss of a beloved pet. It could be the realization that a cherished dream will never come to fruition. Everyone is entitled to their own grief, regardless of the cause. Do not be afraid to mourn. Embrace your emotions and eventually you will find that you no longer need to mourn.Ad
Part 2 of 4: Taking Care of Yourself
1Accept and welcome your emotions. In order to begin the healing process, you will first have to accept the emotions you are feeling. Bottling your emotions up can make you even more unhappy, though on the outside you may appear to be fine. Instead of pretending like you are alright, allow yourself to feel every emotion that comes along with a great loss--sadness, anger, guilt, fear, and eventually you will be able to accept and be at peace with what has happened.[4]
- Make sure that you give yourself time each day to just be by yourself. While you may feel like you need to act a certain way in public, you need to allow yourself time each day to let out your emotions. Whether than means taking some time to just sit and cry, or reflecting upon what you have lost, do so in a private space where you can really let yourself feel.
2Express your feelings through a tangible medium. How you do this is really up to you, but it is important to put your emotions into something concrete that you can see and feel. Doing this may help you make sense of what you are going through, and can help you to put your emotions towards doing something productive.[5]
- This could be creating a scrapbook or photo album of your loved one's life, writing in a journal each day, creating artwork like a painting or sculpture that expresses what you are feeling, or taking up something, like volunteering at an organization, that was important to your loved one.
3Do not expect yourself to feel a certain way, or let others tell you how to feel. Your grief is your own--no one can know exactly how you feel or what you are experiencing because each person mourns in his or her own way. If someone tells you that you "should" be feeling one way or another, don't let this dictate how you grieve. Know that that person is only trying to help, and then continue to feel exactly how you feel.[6]
- One good example of this is crying. Many people believe that crying is the best way to express grief and that eventually you should just stop crying. It is important to remember, however, that some people don't express their grief with tears, and that is perfectly fine. It is also important to remember that there is a not a timeframe for crying. You may cry over your loss years from when the loss actually happened, and that is okay too.
4Maintain your physical health. While we often think of mourning as a purely emotional thing, grief can cause physical changes as well. Lack of appetite, inability to sleep, and a lowered immune system are all physical reactions to grief. In order to combat these side effects, it is important to remember to eat healthy (even if you're not hungry), exercise, and get enough sleep. When we take care of our bodies, we help lift our emotional and mental state.[7]
- Do not turn to alcohol or drugs to deal with the pain of your loss. Alcohol is a depressant that can make you feel lower than you already do, while drugs of any kind are generally bad to put into your system unless prescribed by a doctor.
5Do things that you enjoy. A good way to lift your spirits is to do things that you love and keep busy. When you put your energy towards working on a project that you are passionate about, making art, or hiking in the woods, you are helping your brain secrete serotonin, the chemical that makes you feel happier. Doing something you love is also a good way to get your mind off of your loss, and puts your energy towards something other than grieving.[8]
- If you feel comfortable doing this and think that it will help rather than hurt you, you might consider picking up a passion that your loved one was involved in. This might make you feel closer to your loved one. However, if doing the activity only inspires great sadness, you may want to try something else.
6Prepare for things that may trigger your grief. In particular, holidays, birthdays, and other major milestones can trigger feelings of great sadness. Locations and other things, like a certain object or a type of flower, can also trigger grief. This is completely normal. It is important to come up with strategies, such as changing your schedule or having excuses to leave a certain place. For example[9]:
- If you have recently lost a child and seeing children at the grocery store with their parents triggers your grief, plan on going to the grocery store at a different time of day when there are less likely to be children.
- If you are planning on spending a holiday with your family, and you have recently lost a loved one, ask your family to help you come up with a way to honor that loved one during the holiday.
7Pamper yourself. This might mean soaking in a bubble bath at least once a week, or going to your favorite gym to get a workout in, even if you feel like you don't have the time to do so. It is important to create time to let yourself do things that help you to relax.[10]
- Yoga and meditation are both excellent ways to pamper the mind, body, and soul all at once. Let yourself simply be in the moment and let go of the negative energy you hold in your heart.
Part 3 of 4: Getting Support
1Look to family members and friends for support. It is important to have people to lean on during your time of mourning. While you may want to be self-sufficient, now is the time to let others care for you. A lot of the time, your loved ones will want to help but won't know how, so tell them what you need--whether that is a shoulder to cry on, a friend to go to a movie with, or help with arranging a memorial service for your loved one.[11]
- Let your loved ones, co-workers, and friends know what has happened if you feel comfortable doing so. Alerting them to your situation will help them to understand why they might find you crying in the middle of the day (which is a perfectly fine thing to do!).
2Join a support group. Sometimes sharing your loss with those who have experienced a similar loss can be very therapeutic. Mourning can feel very lonely, even when you have friends and family by your side, so surrounding yourself with people who understand your loss can make it feel a lot less lonely.
- You can look up grief support groups in your community by searching online or looking at listings posted on community boards in your town. If you are religious, you may also want to consider finding out if your place of worship offers support groups.
3Speak with a grief counselor or therapist. If you feel like the grief you are experiencing is too much for you to handle alone, and you don't feel like those around you are really helping, you should consider seeing a counselor or therapist that practices grief counseling. An experienced counselor will be able to help you work through the emotions you are feeling.[12]
4Find comfort in the things you believe in. This could mean turning to your faith for support, or spending more time in nature, or surrounded by things you love. If you follow a certain religion, take comfort in the mourning rituals that your faith defines. Meditating or praying can also bring you a sense of peace. If you are not religious but find peace walking through the woods or sitting on the beach, do these things. Perhaps the bonds of family are what you have faith in. Draw strength from the beautiful things that you believe in or love.[13]
- Write down the feelings you wish to release and then burn them in a fire. Many cultures believe that fire is the element of transformation. Let the fire burn up and carry away your negative energy.
Part 4 of 4: Understanding the Five Stages of Mourning
1Allow yourself to feel shock. When you first learn of your loss, you may go into shock--your mind and body shut down in an attempt to keep you from becoming completely overwhelmed. You may find yourself disbelieving in the face of a death. This is normal.
2Understand denial. Denial is how our bodies and minds often react to the shock of a loss. Denial is what allows us to not become overwhelmed by all of the emotions and physical reactions caused by a great loss. You may not believe that your beloved is really gone. Slowly, however, you will find yourself beginning to accept the reality of what has happened. This is you becoming stronger.[14]
- If you are telling yourself, "this can't be happening to me", you are experiencing denial. Slowly, you will be able to come to terms with the fact that it did happen, and that you have the strength to get through it.
3Know that you may feel anger. You may find that you feel angry at your god, the doctors, even yourself because you believe you did not do enough to prevent your loss. Anger is an emotion that we can easily recognize and that is easier to control than other emotions. Anger can be directed at a certain person, event, or thing. What is important to recognize is that your anger is coming out of your pain and redirecting that pain into something that we can more easily understand.[15]
- You may also feel guilt, particularly when you recognize that you are angry at someone that could not stop the event that has led to your loss. In turn, you may feel more angry that you feel guilty. Just know that these feelings will subside as you work through your mourning.
4Know that at some point you may yourself making mental bargains. One of the loosely defined stages of grief is the time when you begin to think of all the what-ifs that could have been, and what you would do to change what has happened. You might find yourself thinking something like "I will never be annoyed with husband again if he would just come back to me." You might find yourself dwelling on 'if-onlys'. If this happens, talk to someone, distract yourself, or simply remind yourself that you did all that you could.[16]
5Allow yourself to feel great sadness. Part of the mourning process is being very, very sad. You may find that you cry all the time, or that you often find yourself reflecting upon what has happened. You may feel empty or depressed. As with every emotion, this great sadness will also subside, though it is perfectly normal to fondly reminisce on your loved one and feel deeply sad, even years later.[17]
- There is a difference between mourning and complicated grief or clinical depression. Even when you are mourning, you will still find things that make you smile or lift your spirits, even if it is just for a moment. You will continue to live your life, despite the grief you feel. If you are clinically depressed, or are experiencing complicated grief, you will not be able to find even the smallest amount of joy in anything, even after a good deal of time has passed. You may find it hard to accept that your loss has occurred. You will find it hard to do anything, even normal daily activities, and may feel hopeless. If you feel that the latter description fits what you feel, talk to a mental health professional.[18]
6Search for acceptance within yourself. Acceptance does not mean that you feel 'happy' or 'okay' with what has happened--it simply means that you have come to terms with it. You will carry on with, and even enjoy, your life, all the while knowing that you are moving on without the person or thing you have lost. You will begin to plan things, look to the future, and find a sense of peace.[19]
- You may feel a sense of guilt for moving on with your life, but know that your loved one would want you to be happy and to truly enjoy the life that you have.
