For Faculty: Symposia / Forums / Speakers
The John B. Hurford '60 Center for the Arts and Humanities will provide up to $12,000 to stage a symposium, conference, or other public event that offers students opportunities to engage in advanced concerns and scholarship in the humanities or social sciences. The Center is particularly interested in proposals that arise from courses addressing either cross-disciplinary perspectives or a topic suitable for broad cultural and intellectual inquiry. Funds may be used for all expenses to bring outside symposium participants to Haverford (honoraria, travel expenses, entertainment, etc.) and to allow for student research opportunities in preparation for the public event. The faculty member proposing the event will determine the roles of visitors, students, and Haverford faculty in it, as well as the event's format. The faculty leader receives a stipend for their leadership role with the symposium and works in partnership with the Center staff.
In keeping with the Center's larger mission, we also welcome proposals on any theme that reflects or encourages interdisciplinary collaboration, experimentation, and critical thought across departmental and divisional boundaries.
The John B. Hurford '60 Center for the Arts and Humanities funds various other forums - panel discussions, lectures, Young Alumni Humanities Academic Talks, film series, and so on - in order to advance innovative scholarship, teaching, and artistic expression. The Steering Committee welcomes faculty suggestions and proposals.
How to Apply
Proposals should provide:
• a description that includes format, possible participants, timing, schedule, and projected budget;
• an explanation of the intellectual scope of the project and its relationship to Haverford's academic program.

Organized by Haverford's 2008-10 Mellon Post-Doctoral Fellow Rachel Oberter, the symposium Mediums, Media, Mediation: Visual Culture and Haunted Modernities brings together scholars from the fields of art history, media studies, cultural studies, and literature to consider the terms "medium" and "mediation" in nineteenth- and twentieth-century visual culture. How do particular materials such as paint and glass function as media? What is particularly modern about heightened attention to mediation – that is, the laying bare of the mechanisms of representation? How does a focus on "medium" or "mediation" remake interpretive models in the study of visual culture?
One of the symposium's recurring themes will be the role of the medium in nineteenth-century Spiritualism, a heterodox religious movement based on the perceived ability of individuals to communicate with the dead. How can we understand both the actual impact and metaphoric implications of the medium in art, literature, photography, and film? Did contemporaries perceive the medium as a transparent conduit between heaven and earth? In other words, how did the medium mediate?

Coordinated by John Muse, 2007-09 Mellon Post-Doctoral Fellow, among friends presented a series of four simultaneous, collaborative workshops that teamed contemporary artists with Haverford students and interested members of the community. Each workshop produced an installation, a performance, or some work of art, however ephemeral.
The visiting artists–William Pope.L, Nao Bustamante, Jennifer Delos Reyes, and Harrell Fletcher–sometimes make things, but they always make things public. Pope.L and Bustamante have been called performance artists; Fletcher and Delos Reyes, social practice artists. All four take as their medium the relation between artist and audience.
The symposium invited these visiting artists together to practice their craft among friends–students, faculty, staff, and local and not so local neighbors. They thus sought to orient their work and their collaborators to politesse and kindness on the one hand, and the impolitic, the rude, the ill-mannered on the other.
Two talks bookended the collaborative projects: an initial presentation by Pope.L, Bustamante, Delos Reyes, and Fletcher introduced the campus to the artists' work, while a concluding round-table discussion allowed the artists and participating students the chance to talk about their work together, publicly debrief, and present visual documentation of their pieces.

Cherry stained with color tone cherry and clear coated with nitro clear.Mixed the ratio 1 ounce stain to 1 quart water then added about 1/4 more stain to the mix to darken it a little.
I have also used this on the same Les Paul 100 project and it also works. Excellent, also soak the can in hot water to reduce spiting and spatters
This is excellent stuff. Heed the suggestions of placing the cans in hot water. It helps to reduce spatter and makes it spray better. Also make sure the weather is nice out. I sprayed a guitar body with this and it rained a bit the day I did it. It did not really do too badly regardless. Light even coats are better than thick heavy coats.
I used the Vintage Amber for my Tele project... I am very Happy with the way it enhanced the wood grain and its overall rich tint
"Bare wood" the finish it once had, has been transformed to that beautifully subtle 3 tone sunburst made famous by Fender thanks to the colors and clear coat from Stewart-MacDonald.
goes on well - make sure to heat up the cans (I sit them out in the sun for a little while until warm). once you have a good base, you can apply wet coats easily with little running. it flows well and results in a nice gloss.
If you have prepped correctly these products are easy to use and give an outstanding finish with unmatched durability.
I just completed my first guitar, finishing it with Colortone Dyes, Grain Filler, Polishing Compounds and Clear Gloss Lacquer. I was amazed at the results I was able to achieve by hand! The results speak for themselves, and I have received dozens of complements from our local Blues Jam group on the finish quality. Easy to work with, and one can I received was a dud- no aerosol-Stew Mac replaced it immediately. I was pleasantly surprised how quickly I received the replacement, and I was able to stay on schedule. I have another build in process, and you can bet I'll be using Colortone Lacquers on it as well!
Put two cans of the clear coat over a few coats of sanding sealer.Probably would have got a slicker finish with an additional two cans of the clear,kept it sitting on the baseboard heater in my shop to keep the cans nice and warm. Worked good!No splatter. This awesome finish may not last for long though. Its in regular gig rotation! Bring on the dents and dings!
My experience with this lacquer after two guitars is overall very good. The lacquer seems high quality, very little spitting and it buffs out great. A few items of note from my experience, both I think are probably more a function of aerosol can's limitations than of this particular brand: 1) I agree 100% with review below, on open grained woods you will need ALOT more cans to actually complete the job, and any little pore that was filled completely right will take forever to fill up. Unless your pore filling technique is spot on perfect just be warned. 2) It takes much longer for this lacquer to harden than a normal mixed spray lacquer. I know you want to play that guitar right after its been buffed and shine, but honestly I would hang the guitar up and not touch it for about 2-3 months before handling it. I sprayed a classical guitar and my finger nail left dents in the finish. I had let it sit for 3 weeks then buffed the finish and then another two weeks. Wasn't enough time. Anyway, still a great product if you cant do normal spraying. I am not a master builder, so still learning how to handle this stuff after each build. I will say it has also been good for spot repair work, way less mess and clean up, but again, the long time for hardening needs to be accounted for.

Overall, I love this. After having worn it for a few months, I wish the heart charm was a little smaller. If it was about 75% of its size currently, it would be perfect. Right now, it's a little bulky and bangs around easily, which leads to knicks on it.
Thanks! (Posted on 10/6/10)

This Valentine's Day, the Belmont Library invites booklovers and soul seekers alike to try speed dating with a twist- a literary one.
All you have to do is bring a book you love, hate or just want to talk about.
The event will be Belmont's first "Literary Singles Mingle" and is open to ages 21 and up. Library staff is hoping it will be as successful as similar events held at the San Francisco Public Library.
"Valentine's Day can make for a lonely holiday if you're not in a relationship," said Belmont Library Manager Kathleen Beasley. "We offer a safe, welcoming space here at the library – the perfect spot for you to start a new friendship or meet the love of your life!"
Library staffers say that so far, it's been mostly women who have taken the idea of Literary Singles Mingle to heart, so they are encouraging men to grab a book and join in.
Participants will be anonymously paired up with a potential partner. Each couple will be given 5 minutes to get to know one another by talking about the book he or she brought or other topics and when the time is up, participants will rotate to the next person.
The event begins at 7 p.m. followed by refreshments and time to mingle.
Due to limited space, pre-registration is required. Please register by coming in person to the Belmont Library, calling 650-591-8286 or emailing firstname.lastname@example.com. Space is still available - especially for you single men out there!

I'm -- alert right now voters in five states -- in the polls today it's primary day for them New York Pennsylvania among the five and as that happens.
We sit down with one of the most powerful members of congress speaker of the house John Boehner.
But we talked him about the campaign in 2012 Mitt Romney and where he feels our country is headed if President Obama wins a second term.
Speaker Boehner good morning to you know really -- terrific -- -- -- for you know for a man whose title is speaker you don't speak very often.
And this form so it's good to have you back -- and good morning to you last week you called the selection the most important your lifetime.
About around a while.
So I think the president of spur economic policies have failed.
I've argued the -- you've made things worse.
Then as a result of the problem the president has turned to the politics of envy and division.
And this is not this is not in my opinion the right way to -- -- for reelection.
The Republicans have have a plan to get America going -- -- to get American people back to work.
And spent and that's why I believe.
That this election so important -- America -- America -- Lived for four more years.
What -- Obama's present.
His policies.
Will turn America in -- direction that we may never recover from.
On the size scope of government to adapt so that's hangs over economy.
It's when -- president I would have disagreements.
In our discussions last summer.
There be times when it was pretty clear that we were miles apart -- look at remains that John.
That's what elections are for.
And we -- the president -- yes Mr.
President that's what elections before.
Those statements are dire that -- the -- the inference that you're making is that four more years of Barack Obama is sending America down.
Had a deep dark hole hit seven in America down a path.
That Obama look a lot -- what we see in Europe.
A big social well first state.
High unemployment.
Slow economic growth and a government.
That is overly large.
You know if you have a government -- can give you everything that you want.
He of the government big enough to take everything that you -- -- Republicans keep the house.
-- I believe that we will but we've got a real challenge -- fifty.
Of our members in tough races 89 freshman run for four of their first reelection -- -- -- -- and we have 32 districts.
-- states.
Where there's no presidential campaign going to be run -- -- senate race.
Now and we call these -- districts.
Take eighteen California Illinois New York.
Where we know we're not likely -- do well at the top of the ticket.
Down ten those districts are herb frank -- -- of -- what I did not hear you say that I can guarantee that we.
Keep the house I yeah I did not say that correct are you hedging a little bit on this organize -- -- -- confident hides it well I'd say there's a two of three chance that we wouldn't.
Control of the house again and but there's a one in three chance will be -- -- but I'm being myself frank.
We got a big challenge we've got work to do house Mitt Romney doing you think.
You know I think he's doing fine after coming through which clearly was some pretty bruising primary.
For his numbers to be.
-- close proximity.
To the president I think whoever -- how do you size him up politically what what are his strengths and weaknesses.
You know as you sit here some six and a half months away.
-- -- rob me has a great story to tell.
His success story is an American such a success story.
-- and I would go out there and talk about his story and how.
Oh what he wants to do was to make those opportunities available to every American.
But to do that but we've got to rein in the size and scope.
And reach of Washington DC you suggesting that's what he should do or he's -- is that because he has not done that enough to this point -- but he's certainly done an awful lot of up and I think his.
His economic background his background in creating jobs.
In creating investment.
That would help create more jobs.
Is exactly the right message that the voters want to hear in this November elections give -- a referendum on a president's economic policies learn something.
Telepresence gonna try to make election about everything other than his economic policies but the American people what -- the wall.

Obama doing he was he was on EE he was like floating through through the debate he had no idea what was going not yet every opportunity to punch back.
And he stood there.
-- an awful president which I'm sure you would agree an image realizes and I I don't know if he just wasn't prepared or if he was tired or.
Or what it -- but -- that the fact is that he could have come after Romney for so many things the 47%.
Comment I don't know if he was afraid of you know that -- zinger that that Romney said he had in response to that.
Or on.
Did the all the said the change tax plan or health care Obama cares essentially Romney care -- something I mean if if Sean Hannity were on Indiana and I just like start saying things -- I would probably when the debate.
But when he's not Ambien which is usually most the time and -- beating him -- often it's.
Michael -- -- and it was like search again.
And now my friend John terrorism debate Coach management -- but I thought it will look TC saves I have for three quarters of America from having to take their Ambien last night did President Obama and it was really disappointing despite government Mitt Romney got into an attack here there there were no great singers.
And because of Obama's lackluster performance we will -- -- to the throw it in Manila king congress is god Zola.

What does his approach she didn't have -- approach -- yet know he.
It's literally like punching a person like a blow up -- pension -- others that that doesn't make -- the winner I am not gonna say that Obama won because he definitely -- he was terrible to say that -- -- drunk.

Hot all the -- -- -- -- Buster Douglas.
I don't know that was out of our entire size -- got -- he -- distracted and perturbed -- -- as you pointed out and again it's just part of his I'm always.
Fergie does seem -- to be above it all it it didn't.
Do those Intel briefings and local we got Libya and it's just as -- he wants to be demanded as one of the hard work -- -- he wants to slide into the second term.
You know -- instead of having to work for and fight for and then.
We successes -- suggests.

Dolphins complete first phase of their free agency plan
The Miami Dolphins began phase one of their free agency plan by signing some of their own unrestricted free agents to new contracts. The team announced new deals for starting wide reciever Brian Hartline and back up quarterback Matt Moore prior to the NFL's three day negotiating period with other teams UFA's which opens at midnight on Saturday.
Late Thursday night the Dolphins signed Hartline to a five year, $30.8 million deal with $12.5 million guaranteed making him Miami's highest paid offensive player. Since the end of the regular season, Hartline made it evidently clear he wanted to return to Miami and the feeling was mutual with the front office. Coming off a breakout year, Hartline has established himself as a viable number two reciever and would have been a top commodity on the open market. The 26 year old Ohio native isn't the deep threat the team is looking to add this offseason however he is a reliable pass catcher that developed great chemistry with Ryan Tannehill in the quarterback's rookie season. Working with Tannehill, Hartline posted the best stats of his four year career as he recorded 1,083 yards with one touchdown on 74 receptions.
While some might argue that Hartline is overpaid, he in fact took less money to stay in South Beach. The goal of this offseason is to ensure that Tannehill is in the best position to succeed in 2013 and this signing is the first step in achieveing that.

New challenges at the renowned institution include finding the genes that cause cancer, heart disease.
Much of the scientific community is treating the evangelical's faith as harmless.
When I recruited Collins to the NIH's genome project, little did I know he would eventually lead NIH.

They say: "This brochure presents a comprehensive collection of the very best cultural tours and inspirational journeys, all unfolding at a suitable pace, expertly guided where appropriate, in agreeable like-minded company and considerate of the local environment and customs too. Our itineraries are regularly revisited and improved by our own specialists and hand-picked local agents to provide the greatest benefits from travelling in a group context, yet preserve the individual enjoyment factor in every experience."
They say: "This latest brochure from Kuoni is designed to make creating a tour itinerary easy for you. For the first time there is a collection of tours based around themes and specfic interests, so if you're eager to dance the Samba at Rio's carnival or you fancy learning the ancient art of t'ai chi in China it's all in here for you. Of course, all Kuoni tours feature expert guides and tour leaders who are filled with passion and pride for their local area, so you'll learn lots including discovering all those hidden gems that only locals know. Many trips, meals and transfers are included in the tour cost, but there are also optional excursions so you can pick and choose what you want to do."
They say: "The essential ingredients of this specialist holidays include the opportunity to meet local people in their local environment, enjoy beautiful wildlife and scenery, spend time with Traidcraft producers, visit religious and historic sites and learn lots, all whilst travelling with like-minded people. Traidcraft has been running these eye-opening tours for many years now, allowing travellers (that they prefer to see as supporters and friends) the opportunity to see the benefits of fair trade work at first hand. This is not mass tourism. Undertaken on fair trade terms and working with Saddle Skedaddle who run the tours for Traidcraft and through partnerships with local people, the focus is on making a light footprint."
They say: "Latin America is home to some of the most exotic and exciting destinations on the planet. Who could forget exploring the world of the Incas at Machu Picchu or following in the footsteps of Darwin on the Galapagos Islands? The brochure aims to lift the lid on all that is wonderful about this continent with a mix of suggested escorted tour itineraries and private excursions that will be tailored exactly to your wishes and needs. Kuoni can even organise all your internal flights with the special Latin America Airpass scheme. So whether you go for a private tour or join an existing departure, this is a great way to see these fabulous countries. There's even time to learn the Tango in Argentina!".
They say: "This brochure has been put together to offer a selection of our favourite and most popular touring holidays to over 40 different countries around the world, from Albania to Zimbabwe, by train, boat, plane or overland. These holidays will get your right into the heart of the countries you'll be visiting, giving you a privileged insight into the lives and cultures of the each of them. The holidays come as complete packages with flights from the UK included, as well as all your accommodation, many excursions and the Voyages Jules Verne team of tour managers to lead you. For each tour the key features are clearly explained, so you can see at a glance group sizes, travel options and walking content/physical effort involved, making it easy to find the right trip for you."
They say: "This is the first edition of the flagship Titan escorted tours brochure for tours in 2014 and into 2015. After listening to customer feedback, the Privileged Client discounts have simply been replaced with lowest possible discounted prices in this early bird brochure, so if you book early you will be sure to get the best price right now and with only a small deposit to pay to secure your trip. This all means there are lower prices on many of the tours, giving you a saving of up to £300, but rest assured the usual Titan high levels of customer service remain, complete with quality excursions and the VIP Home Departure Service."
They say: "The Titan Cruise and Tour brochure for 2014/2015 showcases worldwide holidays that involve both a cruise and an escorted tour on land to create a stunning 'Grand Voyage' itinerary that really does have everything included. This means you get the best of both worlds as you get to sit back and relax as you cruise on the waters and explore onshore with a tour led by your Titan guide and tour manager. For example, you could be combining a tour of the Rocky Mountains by road or rail with a cruise along Alaska's glacier-strewn coastline. All packages include accommodation, all meals onboard the boat and first class hotels for the land tour part. There are also door to door transfers no matter where you live in the UK and all flights are on scheduled airlines. Look out for some very special departures such as an Antarctic Adventure for the 2015 solar eclipse and a special 2014 sailing for the 60th anniversary of the D-Day landings."
They say: "Enjoy an overland adventure to Africa, Asia, North or South America. All Dragoman trips show you the 'must see' sights, as well as getting off the tourist track (quite literally!) using a fleet of well-maintained all-terrain vehicles to go to the places where most others don't go. Why not spend two nights camping in the Arches National Park, canoe along the Zambezi, or watch the sunset over the temples of Angkor Wat. This is where Dragoman belongs; mixing with local communities on a voyage of discovery at a grass roots level. As well as all terrain trucks we have trips using local transport or even luxury tours to suit all budgets and desires, with trips lasting anywhere between 12 days and nine months."
They say: "This impressive brochure from Titan brings together (for the very first time) every single holiday the company offers.

ClockApp-Csharp - Wiki
About the Application#
This application is triggered on an http request to create an image of the current time and push a link of the image to the phone. It requires a location that is web accessible and writable from where your plugin is running to write an image file to. Two solutions to this are saving it to the MediaServer\Audio directory on the server and enabling Full Control sharing, or having a web accessible folder on your client.
Creating the Application Project#
1. Open a Command Prompt window.
2. Navigate to the directory you want to use as your workspace. To use the CUAE command-line tool to create a new application, type the cuae create command and the name of the application project.
c:> cd \workspacec:\workspace> cuae create ClockApp_csharp}}}
The tool then prompts you for additional information.
Note: Once you are more familiar with the options, you can type the full command rather than answering the prompts by using the following syntax://
cuae create -l language -m namespace -t project type [options] projectname
3. First the tool prompts you to choose between building an application or a plugin. In this example, the correct choice is application.
Project Type? [application or plugin] application
4. Next the tool prompts you to specify the programming language. In this example, the correct choice is csharp.
Programming language? [java or csharp] csharp
5. The tool asks you for the namespace for the application. A program might want to use a fully qualified namespace like com.company.clockapp_csharp or something simple like clockapp_csharp. The tool offers you a simple namespace based on the project name. Let's accept the tool's suggestion for now and use clockapp_csharp
Project namespace? [default: clockapp_csharp] <Return>
6. Finally, the tool asks if you would like to specify a triggering event. All applications need to register against at least one triggering event. You can specify the triggering event now or wait and specify the triggering event later. You can also change the triggering event during development. Again, since we know that this application needs to be triggered on an http request, let's go ahead and specify the triggering event now. Select option 5:
Available application triggering event:0: Skip this step 1: cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.JTapi.JTapiIncomingCall 2: cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.JTapi.JTapiCallInitiated 3: cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.JTapi.JTapiCallEstablished 4: cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.CallControl.IncomingCall 5: cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.Http.GotRequest 6: cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.Presence.SubscriptionTerminated 7: cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.Presence.Notify 8: cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.TimerFacility.TimerFire Triggering event? [0-8] 5}}}
The tool now has enough information to generate the project template.
- application named "ClockApp_csharp"
- with namespace "clockapp_csharp"
- with laguage "csharp"
- with trigger event "cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.Http.GotRequest"
- in location C:\workspace\
Created project "ClockApp_csharp" in directory "C:\workspace\ClockApp_csharp\"}}}
Here is the whole sequence again with all of the steps together:
c:/workspace> cuae create ClockApp_csharp Project type? [application or plugin] application Programming language? [java or csharp] csharp Project namespace? [default: clockapp_csharp] Available application triggering event: 0: Skip this step 1: cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.JTapi.JTapiIncomingCall 2: cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.JTapi.JTapiCallInitiated 3: cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.JTapi.JTapiCallEstablished 4: cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.CallControl.IncomingCall 5: cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.Http.GotRequest 6: cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.Presence.SubscriptionTerminated 7: cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.Presence.Notify 8: cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.TimerFacility.TimerFire Triggering event? [0-8] 5 Generating: * application named "ClockApp_csharp" * with namespace "clockapp_csharp" * with laguage "csharp" * with trigger event "cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.Http.GotRequest" * in location C:\workspace\ Created project "ClockApp_csharp" in directory "C:\workspace\ClockApp_csharp\"}}} ==Inspecting the Generated Project== Let's inspect the files that were generated by the CUAE command-line tool. It created an ClockApp_csharp directory in the directory from which you ran the cuae create command. The ClockApp_csharp directory contains the following files and directories: * ClockApp_csharp.etch * ClockApp_csharp.properties * ClockApp_csharp.csproj * cuae-resources/ * README.txt * src/ The most important of which, for your purposes, are: * **ClockApp_csharp.etch--CUAE** application Etch service definition. Edit this file to use additional CUAE services in your project. * **ClockApp_csharp.csproj--CSharp** project file. * **cuae-resources/**--CUAE application resource directory. * **src/**--Generated application source files. ==Declaring Services== The first step in building an Etch-based application is identifying which[[Hosted CUAE Services | Cisco Unified Application Environment hosted services]] the application requires and then editing the .etch file to declare the names of those services into the application. **Note:** //Once you identify the services you need, you can familiarize yourself with them by visiting the [[API Reference | API reference]] for the version of the Unified Application Environment you are using. // The following snippet is the default content of the .etch file that the CUAE command-line tool generates. We use the **mixin** command to declare the appropriate services. {{{// CUAE Application Etch Service Definition // // This service defines your application and the CUAE services that you // use in your application. // The service module namespace, this will be translated to the // namespace of the generated source code. module ClockApp_csharp // The name of your service. service ClockApp_csharp { // By default, you must always use the EtchBridge service. Do not // remove this mixin, otherwise your application won't work. mixin cisco.uc.cuae.EtchBridge // You may add any additional service mixins that you require. For // example, if you'd like to make and receive phone calls, add the // following line: // mixin cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.CallControl mixin cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.Http }
Because this application will trigger on an http request and push objects to an IP phone, we need to utilize the Http and CiscoIpPhone services. The default etch file already has a mixin for Http because of the triggering event you selected when creating the application project.
mixin cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.Http
We need to add a declaration for the CiscoIpPhone service, using the full namespace. Add the following line right after the mixin for Http but before the final "}":
mixin cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.CiscoIpPhone
The new ClockApp_csharp.etch file should look like this:
// CUAE Application Etch Service DefinitionThis service defines your application and the CUAE services that you use in your application.
The service module namespace, this will be translated to the namespace of the generated source code. module ClockApp_csharp
The name of your service.service ClockApp_csharp{ By default, you must always use the EtchBridge service. Do not remove this mixin, otherwise your application won't work.mixin cisco.uc.cuae.EtchBridge
You may add any additional service mixins that you require. For example, if you'd like to make and receive phone calls, add the following line: mixin cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.CallControl mixin cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.Http mixin cisco.uc.cuae.legacy.CiscoIpPhone } }}}
Building the Application#
After declaring the services you need, you must build the application to generate source files.
1. Open a Command Prompt and navigate to the application directory.
2. Run the msbuild command to generate source files.
The following source file templates are then created in the directory src\ clockapp_csharp:
- MainClockApp_csharpClient.cs
- ImplClockApp_csharpClient.cs
Writing Application Code#
This section provides instructions and code samples for writing the application logic.
Import the Project into your IDE#
1. Open Visual Studio (or another IDE of your preference).
2. Create a new CSharp project from the existing project file by selecting File -> Open -> Project/Solution and selecting the ClockApp_csharp.csproj file from the ClockApp_csharp directory.
First example code snippet#
To implement the following code, you will need to include the following import statements in ImpClockApp_csharpClient.cs:
using System;using System.Text; using System.IO; using System.Drawing; using System.Drawing.Drawing2D; using System.Windows.Forms; using System.Net;}}}
When the application recieves an http request, it creates a graphic file menu to push an image url to a phone. Note that you will have to change the username and password to that of the end user associated with your phone, as well as changing the the url from localhost to the web accessible location where you are storing your image.
Code Sample#
public override void gotRequest(string sessionId, GotRequestOptions options){ Console.WriteLine("gotRequest - called"); if (handleActionRequest(sessionId, options)) return; Console.WriteLine("Creating png file..."); createPngFile(); string remoteHost = options.remoteHost.Substring(0, options.remoteHost.IndexOf(":")); ConstructGraphicFileMenuOptions opt = new ConstructGraphicFileMenuOptions(); opt.locationX = 1; opt.locationY = 1; opt.title = "MyClock"; Change the URL to fetch the application created clock image.opt.uRL = "http://" + remoteHost + "/ClockApp/clockImg.png";opt.formatURL = true;ConstructGraphicFileMenuResult res = server.constructGraphicFileMenu(sessionId, opt);if (!"success".Equals(res.returnValue.ToLower())){Console.WriteLine("ConstructGraphicFile call is not success: %s " + res.returnValue);server.removeCuaeSession(sessionId);return;}server.sendResponse(sessionId, options.remoteHost, 200, "text/xml", res.xmlObject, "OK", null);server.removeCuaeSession(sessionId);}
private bool handleActionRequest(string sessionId, GotRequestOptions options) { if (options.query == null) return false; char[] split = { '&' }; string[] arr = options.query.Split(split); string action = null; string ip = null; string param = null; string item; for (int i = 0; i < arr.Length; i++) { item = arr[i]; if (item.StartsWith("action=")) { action = item.Substring(7).Trim(); } else if (item.StartsWith("ip=")) { ip = item.Substring(3).Trim(); } else if (item.StartsWith("param=")) { param = item.Substring(6).Trim(); } } if (ip == null || ip.Length == 0) return false; if (action == null || action.Length == 0) action = options.url; else action = "/" + action; string act = action; if (param != null && param.Length > 0) act = action + "?" + param; string url = "http://" + options.hostname + ":8000" + act;
ConstructTextResult ctr = null; ConstructTextOptions cto = new ConstructTextOptions(); cto.title = "Menu"; cto.prompt = "Action"; cto.text = "Hello"; cto.softKeyItem = new CiscoIPPhoneSoftKeyType[1]; cto.softKeyItem[0] = new CiscoIPPhoneSoftKeyType("Click", url, null, (short)1); ctr = server.constructText(sessionId, cto); Console.WriteLine("Sending executable to phone..."); SendExecuteResult ser = server.sendExecute(sessionId, ctr.xmlObject, ip, new SendExecuteOptions("cilla", "metreos")); Console.WriteLine("sendExecute result: " + ser.returnValue); server.sendResponse(sessionId, options.remoteHost, 200, "text/plain", "Check your IP phone: " + ctr.xmlObject, "OK", null); server.removeCuaeSession(sessionId); return true; }
private void createPngFile() { Draw image and set backgroundBitmap img = new Bitmap(298, 168);Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(img);g.FillRectangle(new SolidBrush(Color.Blue), new Rectangle(0, 0, 298, 168));
draw stringFont f = new Font(new FontFamily("Arial"), 38);DateTime time = DateTime.Now;string s = DateTime.Now.Hour + ":";add two digit minute int minute = DateTime.Now.Minute; if (minute < 10) s = s + '0' + minute + ":"; else s = s + minute + ":"; add two digit secondint second = DateTime.Now.Second;if (second < 10)s = s + '0' + second;elses = s + second;
g.DrawString(s, f, new SolidBrush(Color.Red), new PointF(10, 10)); save imagetry{<Path to save the created image in the machine where the application process is running also make this location accessable to IPPhones> img.Save("
<location to store image>
clockImg.png"); } catch (Exception e) { Console.WriteLine("Caught exception: " + e); } } }}}
Registering the Application#
The previous steps completed the core logic of the example applications, but before any Etch-based API calls can actually be made, we must register the application with the Cisco Unified Application Server. To register your application, follow these steps:
1. Open the MainClockApp_csharpClient file in the /src directory. It contains the following content by default:
using System;
using clockapp_csharp.types.ClockApp_csharp;
namespace clockapp_csharp { /Main implementation for ClockApp_csharpClient.public class MainClockApp_csharpClient : ClockApp_csharpHelper.ClockApp_csharpClientFactory{/Main for ClockApp_csharpClient /<param name="args">Command Line Arguments</param>public static void Main(String[] args){ TODO: Change to correct URI string uri = "tcp://localhost:4001";
RemoteClockApp_csharpServer server = ClockApp_csharpHelper.NewServer( uri, null, new MainClockApp_csharpClient());
Connect to the serviceserver._StartAndWaitUp( 4000 );
TODO: Insert Your Code Here
Disconnect from the serviceserver._StopAndWaitDown( 4000 ); }
/Return a new instance of ClockApp_csharpClient./<param name="server">Reference to remote service</param> /<returns>Client Implementation</returns>public ClockApp_csharpClient NewClockApp_csharpClient( RemoteClockApp_csharpServer server ){return new ImplClockApp_csharpClient( server );}} } }}}
2. To make a connection to the listener, add a server.registerApplication() request.
string key = server.registerApplication("ClockApp_csharp", null, "<username>", "<password>");Console.WriteLine("ClockApp_csharp application registered with key: "+key); Console.WriteLine("Press any key and hit enter to exit."); Console.ReadLine();}}}
3. Modify the String URI to match the IP address and port of the Cisco Unified Application Server.
URI settings vary slightly between 2.5(1) Beta 1 and more recent versions of 2.5(1), as follows:
2.5(1) and 2.5(1) Beta 2, Beta 3, Beta 4 & later releases#
// TODO Change to correct URIString uri = "tls://appserver_ipaddress:9000?TlsConnection.authReqd=false&filter=KeepAlive &KeepAlive.Count=5&Packetizer.maxPktSize=102400&TcpTransport.reconnectDelay=4000";}}}
Note: In Beta 2, the Etch Bridge was updated to use Transport Layer Securityfor encryption by default. For your applications to work, you must specify TLS as the protocol in the URI and set the authReqd parameter to false. In the example above, the KeepAlive filter and Max Packet Size and Reconnect Delay parameters have also been set.
2.5(1) Beta 1#
// TODO Change to correct URIString uri = "tcp://appserver_ipaddress:9000?&TcpConnection.reconnect_delay=4000";}}}
Note: In addition to setting the correct IP address and port for the Cisco Unfied Application Server, the Reconnect Delay parameter should be set on all connection URIs.
Packaging The Test Application#
1. Execute a successful build request for your test application within your IDE.
2. To package the application, execute the "cuae package" command from a DOS command shell in the parent directory of the test application.
C:\workspace\ClockApp_csharp>cuae packageCreated package file "C:\workspace\ClockApp_csharp\bin\ClockApp_csharp.mca"}}}
The following files will be added to the "\bin" sub-directory:
- ClockApp_csharp.mca - (application bundle to be uploaded into the application server)
- INSTALLER.xml - (contains the config items in config.yaml)
- MANIFEST.xml - (bundle details for the package comamnd)
Installing The Test Application#
To install the test application on a CUAE server, execute the cuae install command from a DOS command shell in test application parent directory of the test application. The cuae install command varies slightly between 2.5(1) Beta 1 and Beta 2.
2.5(1) Beta 2#
You are prompted to enter an IP address, username, and password (to view the help, run the cuae install -h command). When prompted, enter Y or N to save management settings. This will save the answers to the above three questions in the properties file and remember them the next time you go to install.
Note: You are also prompted for the communications protocol (TCP or TLS). Select the protocol that is set on the Management Service. TLS is the default supported protocol. If you want to use TCP, follow the instructions in Management Service Transport Layer Security (TLS) to change the default URI of the Management Service before running these commands.
C:\workspace\ClockApp_csharp>cuae packageCreated package file "C:\workspace\ClockApp_csharp\bin\ClockApp_csharp.mca"
C:\workspace\ClockApp_csharp>cuae install Enter the hostname or IP address of the management service (for example: localhost, 184.108.40.206): localhost Protocol: tls Generated mgmt-service uri: tls://localhost:9001?TlsConnection.authReqd=false Enter management service login username: Entermanagement service login password: Save the amanagement settings with the project? [yes or no] no Application : C:\workspace\ClockApp_csharp\bin\ClockApp_csharp.mca Uploading : ===========================> 100% Application has been installed successfully }}}
2.5(1) Beta 1#
You are prompted to enter an IP address, username, and password (to view the help, run the cuae install -h command). When prompted, enter Y or N to save management settings. This will save the answers to the above three questions in the properties file and remember them the next time you go to install.
C:\workspace\ClockApp_csharp>cuae packageCreated package file "C:\workspace\ClockApp_csharp\bin\ClockApp_csharp.mca"
C:\workspace\ClockApp_csharp>cuae install Enter management service uri or host/IP <for example: localhost, tcp://220.127.116.11.:4001>: Enter management service login username: Entermanagement service login password: Save the amanagement settings with the project? [YyNn] n Application : C:\workspace\ClockApp_csharp\bin\ClockApp_csharp.mca Uploading : ===========================> 100% Application has been installed successfully}}}
Configuring the Application in the Administration Interface#
Adding a trigger#
1. Log in to the Administration interface.
2. Click Applications>Find/List Triggers to generate a list of applications and their associated triggers.
3. Select the application ClockApp_csharp in the list.
4. Enter "url" and "/ClockApp_csharp".
5. Click Add Parameter.
Running the Application#
1. Run the class ClockApp_csharp.MainClockApp_csharpClient to register the application.
At this point the application will remain registered and running until either you stop your application or the application loses connectivity to the Unified Application server.
2. Run the program by entering the following in a web browser.


text:
Last month, the Governor finally signed legislation that decrees that wind turbines and solar panels are inherently beneficial under New Jersey's land use laws. This is a step forward for wind energy in New Jersey.
Up to now, in most cases if a person or business wanted to install a wind turbine in New Jersey they would have to seek a variance. A variance is usually necessary because the wind turbine does not meet the height restrictions in most towns. Some towns also consider the wind turbine as non-permitted structure. In either event in many instances an applicant for a wind turbine must file for a D variance. D variances are the toughest type to get.
In order to obtain a D variance an applicant must get the approval of 5 of the 7 board members i.e. more than a majority. Also the applicant must prove that the wind turbine is has benefits to society that outweigh the negatives. It also must meet other positive requirements. One would think that proving wind turbines have a positive effect to society and that positive effect outweighs any negative effect. The one thing that can be sure is that when a hearing for a wind turbine is scheduled anybody and everybody will be there to protest with complaints that are in large part invalid (in my humble opinion).
This is where P.L. 2009 C. 146 comes in. This new law defines inherently beneficial under our land use laws. Before this bill what was inherently beneficial was left up to the individual land use boards and ultimately to the courts to decide on a case by case basis. This law defines inherently beneficial as, 'a use which is universally considered of value to the community because it fundamentally serves the public good and promotes the general welfare. Such uses includes, but is not limited to, a hospital, school, child care center, group home, or a wind, solar or photovoltaic energy facility or structure." The law in essence removes one small hurdle to the installation of wind energy to NJ. Once a project is considered inherently beneficial it now longer has to prove that the benefits to the public outweigh the negatives. It is assume that the benefits outweigh the negatives.
There was opposition to this bill before it was passed and the League of Municipalities issued a statement on the law arguing that this is taking the power from the municipalities and the courts. In particular the League noted that by including wind and solar energy as inherently beneficial that further legal challenges will be forthcoming.
I agree with the League on this issue, merely declaring wind and solar energy as inherently beneficial does not mean that litigation over the systems will end. I am aware of at least two lawsuits in NJ involving the installation of a wind turbine. I suspect as the green economy grows and the need for clean reliable renewable energy grows more and more businesses and individuals will like to install wind turbines. Those applications will continue to be denied by land use boards for real reasons as well as NIMBY reasons. This will lead to a multitude of lawsuits whose costs will far outstrip the energy benefits to the owner.
While P.L. 2009 C. 146 is a good start, what NJ needs is a laws that prevents townships from prohibiting (either directly or indirectly) the installation of wind turbines in their borders. California has a similar law:
any ordinances regulating small wind energy systems adopted by local agencies have the effect of providing for the installation and use of small wind energy systems and that provisions in these ordinances relating to matters including, but not limited to, parcel size, tower height, noise, notice, and setback requirements do not unreasonably restrict the ability of homeowners, farms, and small businesses to install small wind systems in zones in which they are authorized by local ordinance. It is the policy of the state to promote and encourage the use of small wind energy systems and to limit obstacles to their use." The statute goes further to provide that, "[t]he implementation of consistent standards to achieve the timely and cost-effective installation of small wind energy systems is not a municipal affair . . . but is instead a matter of statewide concern." Ca. Gov't Code §65892.13(a)(5).
If New Jersey is going to meet its terrestrial goals of 200 megawatts of energy from terrestrial wind turbines in the state by 2020 it needs to do more than talk about supporting wind and P.L. 2009 c. 146. We need to do more.
