This invention relates generally to calibrating projectors, and more particularly to calibrating projectors to display surfaces having arbitrary shapes.
Portable digital projectors are now common. These projectors can display large format images and videos. Typically, the projector is positioned on a table, located in a projection booth, or mounted on the ceiling.
In the prior art, the optical axis of the projectors must be orthogonal to a planar display surface to produce an undistorted image. In addition, a lateral axis of the projector must be horizontal to obtain a level image. Even if the above constraints are satisfied, it is still difficult, or even impossible, given physical constraints of the projection environment, to perfectly align a projected image with a predefined target image area on the projection surface. If the projector is placed causally, then image correction is required.
A complete correction for a planar display surface needs to consider three degrees of positional freedom, two degrees of scalar freedom, and three degrees of rotational freedom to minimize distortion. These corrections may be insufficient if the display surface is an arbitrary manifold. Hereinafter, the term manifold refers specifically to a topological connected surface having an arbitrary shape and pose in three dimensions. Pose means orientation and position.
It is possible to distort the image to be projected so that the projected image appears correctly aligned and undistorted. However, this requires that the projector be carefully calibrated to the display surface. This calibration process can be time-consuming and tedious when done manually and must be performed frequently to maintain a quality image. For a dynamic display environment, where either the projector or the display surface or both are moving while projecting, this is extremely difficult.
Most prior art automatic calibration techniques are severely limited in the number of degrees of freedom that can be corrected, typically only one or two degrees of keystone correction. They are also limited to planar display surfaces. Prior art techniques that have been capable of automatically correcting for position, size, rotation, keystone distortion as well as irregular surfaces have relied on knowledge of the absolute or relative geometry data of the room, the display surface, and calibration cameras. When a camera is used for calibration, the display surface must be reflective to reflect the calibration pattern to the camera. A number of techniques require modifications to the projector to install tilt sensors.
The disadvantages of such techniques include the inability to use the projector when or where geometric calibration data are not available, or when non-projector related changes are made, such as a repositioning or reshaping the display surface or changing the calibration cameras. When the display surface is non-reflective, or when the display surface is highly reflective, which leads to confusing specular highlights, camera based calibrations systems fail. Also, with camera based systems it is difficult to correlate pixels in the camera image to corresponding pixels in the projected image.
Therefore, there is a need for a fully automated method for calibrating a projector to an arbitrarily shaped surface.
The present invention provides a method and system for calibrating a projector to a display surface having an arbitrary shape. The calibration corrects for projector position and rotation, image size, and keystone distortion, as well as non-planar surface geometry.
The present invention provides a method and system for finding correspondences between locations on a display surface, perhaps, of arbitrary shape, and projector image pixels. For example, the system can be used to classify parts of an object that are illuminated by a left part of the projector versus a right part of the projector.
The system according to the invention uses discrete optical sensors mounted in or near the display surface. The method measures light projected directly at the surface. This is distinguished from camera-based systems that measure light reflected from the surface indirectly, which leads to additional complications. In addition each sensor corresponds to a single pixel in the projected image. In camera-based systems it is difficult to determine the correspondences between camera pixels and projector pixels for a number of reasons, including at least different optical properties, different geometries, different resolutions, and different intrinsic and extrinsic parameters.
Individual discrete sensors measure the intensity of the projected image at each location directly. Using one or more projected patterns, the system estimates which pixel in the projector's image is illuminating which sensed location.
When the 2D or 3D shape and geometry of the display surface is known, and the location of the optical sensor within this geometry is known, the information about which projector pixels illuminate which sensor can be used to calibrate the projector with respect to the display surfaces.
Calibration parameters obtained are used to distort an input image to be projected, so that a projected output image appears undistorted on the display surface. The calibration parameters can also be used for other purposes such as finding a pose of the projector with respect to the display surface, determining internal and external geometric parameters, finding the distance between the projector and the display surface, finding angles of incident projector rays on the display surface with known geometry, classifying surface regions into illuminated and not illuminated segments by the projector, computing radial distortion of the projector, finding relationship between overlapping images on the display surface from multiple projectors, and finding deformations of the display surface.
System Structure
As shown in
Therefore, the display surface 101 includes four locations 104 with known coordinates, either in 2D or 3D. It should be noted that additional locations could be used depending on a size and topology of the surface 101. Four is a minimum number of locations required to fit the output image to the rectangular image area 103 for an arbitrary projection angle and a planar display surface.
Optical sensors measure an intensity of optical energy at the known locations 104 directly. This is in contrast with a camera based system that measures projected images indirectly after the images are reflected by the display surface. The direct measuring has a number of advantages. That is, unlike camera-based projector calibration, the present system does not have to deal with intensity measurements based on reflected light, which has a more complex geometry.
In one embodiment, the sensors are photodiodes or phototransistors mounted in or near the surface at the locations 104. Alternatively, as shown in
The locations 104 can be independent of the image area 103 as long as the geometric relationship between the image area and the locations is known. This is straightforward when the surface is planar or parametrically defined, e.g., the surface is quadric or other higher order surfaces, including surfaces that cannot be described parametrically.
A calibration module (processor) 105 acquires sensor data from each of sensor 501. In a preferred embodiment, the sensor data, after A/D conversion, are quantized to zero and one bits. Zero indicating no sensed light, and one indicating sensed light. The light intensity can be thresholded to make this possible. As an advantage, binary intensity readings are less sensitive to ambient background illumination. Although, it should be understood, that the intensity could be measured on a gray scale. Links between the various components described herein can be wired or wireless. The calibration module can be in the form of a PC or laptop computer.
As shown in
The video processing module 106 distorts the input image 110 generated by a video source 107 such that the output image 102 is undistorted and aligned with the image area 103 when the output image is projected onto the display surface 101. For some applications, it may be useful to pass the calibration parameters and the warping function directly to the video source 107.
The calibration module 105, the video processing module 106, and the video source 107, as well as the projector 100 can be combined into a lesser number of discrete components, e.g., a single processor module with a projector sub-assembly. Other than the optical sensors and image generation hardware, the bulk of the functionality of the system can be implemented with software. However, all the software could also be implemented with hardware circuits.
The invention enables the projector to be calibrated to planar and non-planar display surfaces 101 containing optically sensed locations 104. The calibration system is capable of compensating for image alignment and distortions to fit the projected output image 102 to the image area 103 on the display surface.
Calibration Method
Calibration Patterns
As shown in
When projected in a predetermined sequence, the calibration patterns deliver a unique pattern of optical energy to each location 104. The patterns distinguish inter-pixel positioning of the locations 104, while requiring only ┌log2(n)┐ patterns, where n is the number of pixels in the projected image.
The raw intensity values are converted to a sequence of binary digits 311 corresponding to presence or absence of light [0,1] at each location for the set of patterns. The bit sequence is then decoded appropriately into horizontal and vertical coordinates of pixels in the output image corresponding to the coordinates of each location.
The number of calibration patterns is independent of the number of locations and their coordinates. The display surface can include an arbitrarily number of sensed locations, particularly if the surface is an arbitrary complex manifold. Because the sensed locations are fixed to the surface, the computations are greatly simplified. In fact, the entire calibration can be performed in a fraction of a second.
The simplicity and speed of the calibration enables dynamic calibration. In other words, the calibration can be performed dynamically while images or videos are projected on the display surface, while the display surface is changing shape or location. In fact the shape of the surface can be dynamically adapted to the sensed data 311. It should also be noted, that the calibration patterns can be made invisible by using infrared sensors, or high-speed, momentary latent images. Thus, the calibration patterns do not interfere with the display of an underlying display program.
Alternatively, the calibration pattern can be pairs of images, one followed immediately by its complementary negation or inverse, as in steganography, making the pattern effectively invisible. This also has the advantage that the light intensity measurement can be differential to lessen the contribution of ambient background light.
Warping Function
For four co-planar locations, the calibration module 105 determines a warping function:
p s =W*p o
where w is a warp matrix, ps are coordinates of the sensed locations, and po are coordinates of corresponding pixels in the output image that are to be aligned with each display surface location.
Using the sensed values of ps and known values for po, the correspondences of the warp matrix w can be resolved. This is known as a homography, a conventional technique for warping one arbitrary quadrilateral area to another arbitrary quadrilateral. Formally, a homography is a three-by-three, eight-degree-of-freedom projective transformation H that maps an image of a 3D plane in one coordinate frame into its image in a second coordinate frame. It is well known how to compute homographies, see Sukthankar et al., "Scalable Alignment of Large-Format Multi-Projector Displays Using Camera Homography Trees," Proceedings of Visualization, 2002.
Typically, the pixels po are located at corners of the output image. If more than four locations are used, a planar best-fit process can be used. Using more than four locations improves the quality of the calibration. Essentially, the invention uses the intensity measurement to correlate the locations to corresponding pixels in the output images.
The warp matrix w is passed to the video-processing module 106. The warping function distorts the input images correcting for position, scale, rotation, and keystone distortion such that the resulting output image appears undistorted and aligned to the image area.
Non-Planar Surfaces
Arbitrary manifolds can contain locations with surface normals at an obtuse angle to the optical axis of the projector. Sensors corresponding to these locations may not receive direct lighting from the projector making them invisible during the calibration process. Therefore, sensed locations should be selected so that they can be illuminated directly by the projector.
A generalized technique for projecting images onto arbitrary manifolds, as shown in
Although the main purpose of the method is to determine projector parameters that can be to distort or warp an input image, so the warped output image appears undistorted on the display surface. However, the calibration parameters can also be used for other purposes such as finding a pose of the projector with respect to the display surface, which involves internal and external geometric parameters. The pose can be used for other applications, e.g., lighting calculations in an image-enhanced environment, or for inserting synthetic objects into a scene.
The parameters can also be used for finding a distance between the projector and the display surface, finding angles of incident projector rays on surface with known geometry, e.g., for performing lighting calculations in 3D rendering program or changing input intensity so that the image intensity on display surface appears uniform, classifying surface regions into segments that are illuminated and are not illuminated by the projector, determining radial distortion in the projector, and finding deformation of the display surface.
The invention can also be used to calibrate multiple projectors concurrently. Here, multiple projectors project overlapping images on the display surface. This is useful when the display surface is very large, for example, a planetarium, or the display surface is viewed from many sides.
Although the invention has been described by way of examples of preferred embodiments,.it is to be understood that various other adaptations and modifications may be made within the spirit and scope of the invention. Therefore, it is the object of the appended claims to cover all such variations and modifications as come within the true spirit and scope of the invention.

House Republicans are demanding Democratic leaders disavow a deal in the works on healthcare ahead of a bipartisan summit.
GOP leaders sent a letter Friday seeking assurances from Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Majority Leader Harry ReidHarry ReidOvernight Finance: Trump threatens NAFTA withdrawal | Senate poised for crucial Puerto Rico vote | Ryan calls for UK trade deal | Senate Dems block Zika funding deal The Trail 2016: 11 hours, 800 pages, 0 changed minds Senate faces critical vote on Puerto Rico MORE (D-Nev.) after hearing reports that they are negotiating behind the scenes a package that would pass both chambers with only Democratic support.
The bipartisan summit is scheduled for Feb. 25.
Democrats expressed their disappointment in the GOP letter.
disappointing House Republicans are trying every trick in the book not
to attend this bipartisan healthcare summit. We bring our ideas and
plans to the table, they bring theirs. It's hard to understand what is
so complicated about that," a senior Democratic aide said.
President Barack ObamaBarack ObamaTrump on NAFTA: Renegotiate or withdraw Reid: Rubio should be sued over missed votes Nigel Farage: Trump better for UK than Obama MORE announced his plan to invite Republican leaders to a televised summit during an interview aired on CBS before the Super Bowl on Feb. 7. Republicans accepted Obama's invitation but have expressed deep skepticism of his intentions to consider Republican ideas on healthcare.
Obama has responded by asserting he plans to encourage both sides to air out their ideas.
"My hope is that this doesn't end up being political theater, as I think some of you have phrased it. I want a substantive discussion," he said during a press briefing Tuesday. Obama has stopped far short of Republican demands to scrap the bills already passed by the House and Senate, however.
Since losing a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate last month, Democrats on Capitol Hill have been working on a plan to move the Senate-passed bill through the House and to pass changes in a separate measure considered under budget reconciliation rules, which would allow the legislation to pass the Senate with a simple majority.
"The existence of any kind of backroom deal among the White House and Democratic leaders would certainly make a mockery of the president's stated desire to have a 'bipartisan' and 'transparent' dialogue on this issue," the House GOP leaders wrote.

Briefly: Vimeo and Leap Motion team up, AllCast on Amazon Fire store
Video content platform Vimeo has announced that its Couch Mode feature is now compatible with the Leap Motion controller. The new addition allows Vimeo users to control their viewing with hand-based gestures, such as a circle gesture with one's finger fast-forwarding or rewinding a video, and tapping one's finger in the air engages playing or pausing. A swiping gesture plays the next video in queue.
Briefly: Vimeo acquires Cameo, Sony's virtual reality headset for PS4
Vimeo has announced today that it has acquired video shooting, editing and sharing video iPhone app Cameo. Offering a two-minute maximum sequence length, Cameo differs from short-form video apps such as Vine and Instagram. Users can change the order of the clips, add music and invite friends to contribute with their own footage. Themes build on a traditional filter with caption font, color tweaks and effects. The terms of Vimeo's deal with Cameo has not been disclosed, however it has been stated that the app will not be shut down at present.
Vimeo redesigns video player for performance, in-player purchases
Streaming video site Vimeo has launched a major redesign of its web player. The new one is said to start playback faster, resize smoothly, and sync preferences across multiple players within the same browser. People using Vimeo on Demand can choose to buy or rent videos from with the player, regardless of where the clip is currently playing.
Redbox, Vimeo, HBO to support Chromecast, phone streaming app created
The Google Chromecast will be receiving more support in the future, with reports of Redbox, Vimeo, and HBO preparing to take advantage of the device. The possible new additions come at the same time as a developer shows off a way for smartphones to directly share images and video with the streaming dongle.
iOS 7 to get Flickr, Vimeo integration, source says
Apple is aiming to integrate Flickr and Vimeo into iOS 7, a source tells 9to5Mac. The integration is expected to work in much the same way as Facebook and Twitter support does in iOS 6, allowing single sign-ins via the Settings menu. In the case of Flickr, at least, signing in may not only add another option to iOS' built-in sharing menus, but also simplify apps with their own hooks for the service, such as Instagram. Flickr is already integrated into OS X Mountain Lion and the iOS edition of iPhoto.

WhatsApp now handles over 100M calls daily
WhatsApp is celebrating that it is being used for over 100 million calls every day. In a brief notice, the Facebook-owned messaging platform advises the voice-calling feature it rolled out to its users last year now deals with an average of over 1,100 calls initiated per second. Earlier this year, it increased the security of its calls and other messages, by introducing end-to-end encryption on all platforms. http://bit.ly/292HqCX
Adele's '25' album now streaming
Recording artist Adele has "pulled a Kanye" after saying that her current album "25" would not be available for streaming. The seven-month-old record, which has yielded a number of hit singles, is now available for streaming on all the major streaming services, such as Apple Music and Spotify, as of today in most major markets, with worldwide distribution to come. Reportedly, the singer had demanded streaming be limited to paid subscribers -- a condition that has hurt some streamers with artists, who aren't paid royalties for free or trial listens . Apple pays performers its normal royalty rates during its free trial, avoiding the issue -- and having repeated success in both signing up exclusives and placing those exclusives into the top of the charts. http://ti.me/28U7NOu
SanDisk iXpand case has battery, storage
A new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6s case from SanDisk appears to be the "holy grail" of accessories: a stylish and protective case that offers both extra storage as well as the option of extra battery power as well. The iXpand Memory case offers either 32GB, 64GB, or 128GB of additional storage incorporated into the case, and an optional add-on battery pack (sold separately) adds up to an extra day or more of charge. Through the associated iXpand app, camera photos and videos can be automatically stored on the extra storage, optionally password-protected, The cost for the case is (in order of storage capacity) $60, $100, and $130. The battery pack's release data has not yet been announced, but the add-on should retail for an additional $30. http://bit.ly/291epHu
Fifth Hong Kong store to open June 30
The 46th official Apple store in what the company calls the "Greater China" region will open at 10AM local time in Hong Kong's New Town Plaza in the Sha Tin district on Thursday, June 30, according to a new page on Apple's retail website. Despite slowing growth due to economic turmoil in China, the country is still Apple's fastest-growing market. The new story will be the fifth for Hong Kong, a lucrative market for Apple thanks to the high concentration of wealth there and a thriving "gray" market. Normal store hours for the new store will be 10AM to 10PM every day. http://apple.co/291diaT
Apple Music bug bites very short songs
There appears to be a reproducible bug in the current version of iTunes -- version 12.4.1, running on OS X 10.11.5, both the current non-beta versions of the respective software -- that causes a streamed song to become "stuck" in endless buffering if the streamed item just before this happened was 60 seconds or less in length. The problem appears to stem from code in iTunes that signals the next track to start downloading one minute before the currently-playing track is done, and thus songs shorter than one minute don't trigger the download. Locally-stored music is unaffected by the bug, and the problem does not appear to exist in either the macOS Sierra developer beta or versions of iTunes earlier than 12.4, and does not affect the iOS Music app at all. http://bit.ly/291cN0l
Walmart Pay expands to 15 states
Walmart, one of the key progenitors of the failed CurrentC mobile payment system that was distinguished from Apple Pay by its ability to collect and share customer financial and buying data among its participants, has expanded the soft rollout of its alternative solution "Walmart Pay" to an additional 15 US states following a pilot program in Arkansas and Texas last month. Walmart continues to resist adding Apple Pay. The system, built into the Walmart app for iOS and Android, works with a complicated system of the camera scanning a purchase code at the register, then generating a QR code which is then scanned by the register. The system is available now in Alabama, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, North Carolina, North Dakota, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Virginia, and Washington, DC. http://apple.co/28SqZfu
Amazon refreshes entry-level Kindle
Amazon has added a new Kindle to its ebook reader range, one that is thinner and lighter than the previous entry-level model. Offering a six-inch 167-dpi touchscreen display, a doubled 4GB of storage, and an option for a white casing, the new model also adds in the ability to export highlights and notes to an email account as a PDF. Two versions of the all-new Kindle are available, priced at $80 including "Special Offers" and $100 without. http://amzn.to/28Q4c3R

The Vanguard Group, the mutual fund giant best-known as a proponent of low-cost, index-based investing, may be getting into the hedge fund business—the opposite of low-cost, index-based investing.
In a filing about its planned Managed Payout funds of funds, Vanguard mentions a "prospective absolute return fund" for the Managed Payout products to invest in, mutual fund watchdog Morningstar reports. The proposed "private investment fund" would not be set up as a mutual fund, and would utilize multiple strategies—including relative value and arbitrage—and multiple asset classes, as well as such un-mutual fund tactics as short sales and leverage.
The filing makes clear that Malvern, Pa.-based Vanguard, which manages more than $1 trillion—more than $100 billion of which is in one fund tracking the Standard & Poor's 500 Index—has not definitively decided to create a hedge fund.
Should it, however, the Vanguard hedge fund would be used to further the goals of the three Managed Payout funds, which are designed to both increase investor capital as well as pay monthly distributions.

Socialism as an alternative: Reflections on 'Socialism for the 21st Century' international conference
Austerity, racism and the EU referendum in Britain
By Tony Mckenna
June 13, 2016 -- Links International Journal of Socialist Renewal -- The EU debate is perhaps one of the more difficult to make sense of. For you are bombarded with a vast amount of articles, from every colour on the political spectrum. How does one go about making an informed decision? It's said you can tell a lot about a person by who their friends are. When translated into political thought the axiom has a simplistic but not unuseful purpose: take the time to look at the groups and social forces that are gathering around a particular position. These might give you some hint as to which political interests the position truly serves and hint at its real essence. However, in the case of the EU referendum – the vote that is to be held later this year in Britain on whether we should remain or leave the European Union – there is a remarkably odd admixture of people who have aligned themselves with both sides.
Beyond the boliburguesía thesis: Why critics are wrong to blame socialism for Venezuela's woes
By Steve Ellner
A Leap toward radical politics?
June 11, 2016 -- Links International Journal of Socialist Renewal reposted from Socialist Project -- The Leap Manifesto is, in a way, Canada's version of the burst of Left and socialist energies that have come with the Bernie Sanders campaign in the Democratic Party in the U.S. and the Jeremy Corbyn leadership win in the Labour Party in Britain.
Machiavelli and the primacy of politics
By Doug Enaa Greene
Dedicated to my friend Destiney Linker.
June 10, 2016 -- Links International Journal of Socialist Renewal -- If we were to look at most people who have existed throughout history – we can say that they lived in obscurity, dire poverty, possessing no titles or pretensions to greatness. They lived and died in toil. The vast majority of humanity has passed through these conditions. Yet what did these people think about their circumstances and what to do about them?
Sinn Fein on Brexit – A threat to Irish national interests and a social Europe
By Declan Kearney
June 9, 2016 -- Links International Journal of Socialist Renewal reposted from Anphoblacht -- On BBC's Question Time with David Dimbleby, I asked British Secretary of State Theresa Villiers directly whether she believed a Brexit was in the interests of people in the North – she didn't answer the question.
I then asked her whether the British Government, in the event of a Brexit, would replace the European funding which would be lost to the North of Ireland as a consequence of withdrawal from the EU – she didn't answer that question either.
The fact is that a Brexit is opposite to the interests of people in the Six Counties.
Should we stay or should we go? The English left debates the European Union referendum
June 9, 2016 -- Links International Journal of Socialist Renewal -- With the referendum on whether Britain should stay or leave the EU fast approaching, the debate over what position the left should take continues. Links is reposting a vidoe debate between Marina Prentoulis (Syriza UK) and Luke Cooper (Another Europe is Possible) (for in), and Hannah Sell (deputy general secretary, Socialist Party) and Michael Calderbank (Red Pepper) (for out), in a special episode of The Wedge, produced in collaboration with and published on Red Pepper.
Below we also have an article by Terry Conway from Socialist Resistance outlining the different positions on the left, and an editorial from Morning Star on what the EU represents.

Cuba's medical doctors: the 3000 who stayed
By Don Fitz
June 5, 2016 -- Links International Journal of Socialist Renewal reposted from Monthly Review with the author's permission -- Stories of Cuban medical accomplishments often note that half of the country's 6,000 doctors had left by 1963. But just as professionals were forsaking their homeland en masse for the comforts of Miami, 3,000 doctors chose to stay. Why did they remain? More important, the number of patients per doctor now doubled, how did they face the daunting task of transforming medicine? In addition to treating patients, their goals included expanding medical care to rural regions; increasing medical education to replace doctors who had left; making care preventive, community-oriented, and focused on tropical diseases; and redesigning a fractured and non-cohesive health system. Exploring changes during this transformative period in Cuban health care requires examining sources available in Cuba, as well as studying oral histories of Cuban physicians who lived during the revolution.
Pakistan: Fear and dissent in Okara; plus Okara Dispossessions: From Jhanglees to Murabba holders to Faltus
Partido, clase y marxismo: ¿Era Kautsky "leninista"?
[Original article in English here]
By Eric Blanc
June 3, 2016 -- Links International Journal of Socialist Renewal traducido para Sin Permiso por G. Buster -- En los últimos años, los socialistas han discutido encarnizadamente sobre la cuestión de los llamados "partidos amplios". Muchos han defendido que hay que desechar el modelo "leninista" en favor de formaciones más amplias, como Syriza, Podemos, el Partido Laborista británico, los Verdes, etc. Otros han rechazado participar en este tipo de organizaciones, con el argumento "leninista" de que la construcción de partidos marxistas revolucionarios independientes sigue siendo la tarea de organización estratégica de los socialistas.
Entrelazado con este debate ha habido una seria reevaluación del propio "leninismo". En particular, después de la publicación del monumental Lenin Rediscovered de Lars T. Lih, se han abierto algunas grandes interrogantes: ¿Rompió Lenin en la teoría y / o práctica con la estrategia "ortodoxa" articulada por el teórico marxista Karl Kautsky? ¿Fueron los bolcheviques, en otras palabras, un "partido de nuevo tipo"?
Ian Angus on the climate crisis: 'We are NOT all in this together'
June 2, 2016 — Links International Journal of Socialist Renewal reposted from Climate & Capitalism, a shorter version also appeared in Green Left Weekly — Climate & Capitalism editor Ian Angus recently completed a three-week tour of Australia, organized by the Socialist Alliance and Links to introduce his new book, Facing the Anthropocene: Fossil Capitalism and the Crisis of the Earth System. He gave this talk, which draws on material in Chapter 11, at forums in Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Brisbane and Newcastle.
At the crossroads of Blanquism and Leninism
By Douglas Enaa Greene[1]
June 1, 2016 -- Links International Journal of Socialist Renewal -- Rosa Luxemburg once said that Bolshevism is nothing more than the "mechanical transposition of the organizational principles of Blanquism into the mass movement of the socialist working class."[2] Many leftists, both now and a century ago, share Luxemburg's position that Leninism is elitist and/or Blanquism. Yet all of these judgments are far off the mark. For Lenin, Blanquism was something that the communist movement needed to overcome if they wanted to win a successful socialist revolution. Leninism is not simply Blanquism or Jacobinism adapted to Russian conditions, but the development of a Marxist mode of politics that draws clear revolutionary lessons from the defeat of the Paris Commune. The central operator of the Leninist mode of politics is a revolutionary vanguard party devoted to the emancipation of the oppressed workers and peasants. However, there remains a grain of truth in the accusation that Leninism is Blanquist, since "Blanquism" is a label used by social democrats and revisionists to condemn the revolutionary essence of Marxism
Spain: As Podemos and United Left join forces, is a left government in sight?
By Dick Nichols
May 31, 2016 — Links International Journal of Socialist Renewal a much shorter version of this article was first published at Green Left Weekly — Five months after the December 20 election in Spain failed to produce a government, the country is returning to the polls in the most polarised contest since the end of the Franco dictatorship in 1977.
The stakes could not be higher. The "second round" election on June 26 could open the door to the final breakdown of the two-party system and the beginning of a deep-going democratisation of the Spanish state and politics: or it could drive all parties defending the status quo into a last-ditch alliance against the forces for radical change.

Philippine Left facing a Duterte-CPP Coalition Government?, plus Duterte, a socio-political outcome

Local politics enters the global contest against the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP)
By Sol Trumbo Vila

Local authorities are now also increasingly taking a strong position against supranational structures that negotiate opaque trade deals.

RE: John Menteer
If you would not mind transferring his memorial to me (#48129748) I will be sure to link him to his parents as soon as I can figure out which cemetery they are in for sure. Then I can get memorials created for them and "officially" link all of the family together. Thanks a bunch! EK :)

This set of instructions on how to build a Barn Door kite assumes you know absolutely nothing about kite making. And if you are a 'visual-learner', it should be possible to complete the kite by referring only to the pictures.
You might already have some of the simple tools and materials required. Anything you don't have is easily bought. If not exactly what I used, then at least something pretty similar!
Probably the most important thing to get right is making and adjusting the bridle. This trips up so many would-be kite makers who are trying it for the first time! I've tried hard to make the instructions fool-proof in this area.
The MBK 2-Skewer Barn Door is medium-sized at 58 cm (23") across and 53 cm (21") tall, with generous dihedral and a fairly short looped tail.
The 2-Skewer Barn Door is a very nice light-to-moderate wind flier.
Way up into the moderate wind range in fact. Up to around 30 kph if the bridle is adjusted forward enough.
The video below shows this latest version of the 2-Skewer Barn Door scooting around in winds of around 20 kph.
Now's the time to read up on the 'tools' and materials required for making a Skewer kite, if you haven't already.
The template shown above represents one side of the kite sail. The left edge of the template corresponds to the edge of the plastic bag. You will now transfer these measurements to the sail plastic as follows...

"Love the easy to understand step by step instructions, made from next to nothing materials and above all so much fun to fly... cheers Tim for sharing your well thought out pdf kite designs with the whole world.
Very satisfying making your own and watching them get air-born for the first time."
"I've just bought your super e-book and spent most of last night pouring through all the great stuff in it!
Very detailed and USEFUL information - thanks for such a great book."
years ago, I tried making a kite using the 'instructions' in a free
kite-safety booklet. What a disappointment for a young boy.
Your instructions and methods are wonderful. You help the builder to focus on accuracy, without making it hard. Also, you use materials that are durable, yet cheap!"

seventh day adventists are a satanic cult

Like Christmas, Sunday is a doctrine of men - it comes from the Roman Church who changed the day long ago. This would break God's 4th commandment about his Sabbath and god's 1st command about following other gods. Sunday comes from the sun worshiping religion of Rome.
more here with that history
link to www.sabbathtosundaychange.com
"Know you not, that to whom you yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants you are to whom you obey; whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?" (Romans 6:16)
And yes we are commanded to 'rest' on the Sabbath (Saturday) that is to commemorate creation and the Creator as it says in the fourth commandment (see: God's 10C Law, Ex 20)
- 29002615
Here is some of what God commanded the Israelites about the sabbath:
12 Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as the Lord thy God hath commanded thee.
13 Six days thou shalt labour, and do all thy work:
14 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy manservant and thy maidservant may rest as well as thou.
And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the Lord thy God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the Lord thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.
(Deuteronomy 5:12-15)
Please note these important details:
* God commanded the Israelites to keep the sabbath, because He rescued them from slavery in Egypt. Nowhere in that passage did God say anything about what Christians should do.
* Nowhere in that passage did God say "Christians must go to church on the sabbath". God said Israelites must stay home and not work on the sabbath. Not the same thing at all.
* Nowhere in that passage did God say "Christians must not go to church on sunday". There is nothing about sunday at all in that passage.
God commanded the Israelites to stay home and not work on the sabbath. God did not command the Christians to go to church on saturday and refrain from going to church on sunday.
God commanded the Israelites to do a lot of other things regarding the sabbath, such as executing people who break the sabbath, for example. Do you execute sabbath-breakers? Or do you think "Go to church on saturday" is a good enougn approximation to what God commanded the Israelites to do?
You can't focus on one detail "what day is the sabbath" and ignore all the other details, such as "who did God command to keep the sabbath", "why did He command them to keep the sabbath", "what did He command them to do on the sabbath".
Nowhere in the ten commandments or anywhere else in the bible did God command "Christians must go to church on saturday".

GoG dropping a teeny hint about Linux support
Good Old Games or GoG is a well-known site to any gamer as a place where one can get games completely DRM free and almost always with additional goodies that they can't find anywhere else. Now it seems that they will be adding to the good praises that they have been receiving by spear heading a DRM free revolution, by adding support for Linux games in their catalogues.
The possible rumour came into being following a forum post by a GoG team member on the official GoG boards. A user had commented that the user would like if they supported Linux, which was one of the only reason that they preferred to use other sellers like Humble Store which is known to sell games for Linux. To this comment, the community representative replied with "Linux you say … hmmm … let us chew on this … ;)"

The Internet Without Connection, Free Endless OS For Emerging Markets
There are four billion people on the planet without PCs or access to affordable personal computers. That figure should surely be tempered with some contextualization i.e. not everybody actually wants to have an Internet connection and many traditional, native or bucolic ways of live do still exist on the planet. Regardless, there are a batch of global initiatives in existence which seek to give computer access to every man, woman and especially child. Endless OS is one such project. The free operating system has been designed explicitly to work in the expensive or restrictive Internet data conditions that often exist in emerging markets where fabulously affordable broadband has yet to arrive. The software itself is built to provide useful information and educational content, with or without an Internet connection.

Israel has eased restrictions on Gaza fishermen and farmers, Palestinian officials said, advancing a three-day-old truce brokered by Egypt after a week of fierce fighting.
Gaza's children also headed back to school in their hundreds of thousands, in another indication normal life was returning after eight days of fierce cross-border fighting in which 166 Palestinians and six Israelis were killed.
Nonetheless, senior Hamas leader Mahmoud al-Zahar showed how fragile the ceasefire remained, with defiant remarks to reporters of how the Islamists would go on smuggling in weapons "by all possible means", including via Israel's arch-foe Iran.
A statement from the office of Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh said Egypt had notified them that "Israel has allowed Palestinian fishermen to fish in Gaza's waters at a distance of 10 km, up from 5 km.
The Egyptian-brokered truce deal agreed on Wednesday calls on Israel to ease curbs on coastal Gaza, which it has largely blockaded since Hamas, which rejects the Jewish state's right to exist, took power there in 2007.
Israel had formally barred Gaza fishermen from heading more than 5 km out into the Mediterranean Sea for about 3 years, its gunboats often enforcing the rule, a measure Israel said was intended to prevent weapons smuggling.
Murad Al-Issi, a member of a fishermen's group, told Reuters his colleagues had already ventured out to the 6-mile limit on Saturday, undisturbed by Israel.
"The Israeli army naval boat which used to fire and torch Palestinian boats that sailed beyond a 5 km distance watched without doing anything to prevent them," Issi said.
Palestinians say the Israeli restrictions had hampered the amount and variety of fish they could catch.
Inside Gaza, Palestinian farmers tended land along the testy frontier with the Jewish state without incident, signalling Israel was easing restrictions of the past three years barring Palestinians from coming within 300 metres of a border fence.
The change took place a day after Israeli troops killed a Palestinian man at a Gaza border fence, saying protesters there threw stones and tried to breach the barrier.
Palestinians denounced the shooting as a violation of the ceasefire and Egypt intervened to restore calm.
On Saturday, a Reuters photographer saw farmers in the Khan Younis area working close to the Israeli frontier fence.
Hamas security officials were on patrol and Israeli soldiers looked on without interfering, but for a brief verbal exchange between one soldier and a Hamas guard, witnesses said.
Israel had no comment on whether it had eased conditions for either the fishermen or farmers.
Zahar, the senior Hamas leader, sounded a triumphal note despite the death toll and damage the Israeli offensive caused in Gaza, where many saw the truce as a victory for having forced Israel to modify its blockade of the territory and help both sides avoid a potentially deadlier ground assault.
Zahar said Hamas would continue to arm itself with the help of Israel's arch-enemy, Iran, though the truce signed in Cairo calls for a cessation of rocket fire at Israel, which Israel gave as its reason for launching its attacks in mid-November.
"We have no choice but to continue to bring in weapons by all possible means," Zahar said, adding that he expected Tehran would "increase its military and financial support to Hamas".
"We have a right to take money and weapons from Iran. They (Iran) give to us for the sake of God, no conditions attached, and I am a witness to that," Zahar told reporters.
In a rare phone call to Hamas' Gaza leader Haniyeh, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad praised what he called Palestinian "resistance and perseverance" against Israel, which he said must now "bow" to Palestinian rights, IRNA news agency reported.
Zahar said that after Hamas's rain of rocket fire that reached as far as Tel Aviv and paralysed swathes of southern Israel, "the Jews will think twice before" attacking Iran, as Israel has earlier hinted it might do to stop a nuclear programme the West fears is destined to produce atomic weapons.
Some analysts say otherwise, however, pointing at how the Israeli military inflicted serious blows to Hamas's weapons arsenal, showing the world it has cutting-edge technology, particularly when it comes to missile defence.
