Places to Visit around Yangon
Sights around Yangon
The facilities are simple in the less visited, less developed destinations. It sometimes doesn't go according to plan! Yangon and Sightseeing - Yangon (Rangoon) Forums The best period to visit Burma, as noted above, is from Oct. to Feb., but it is a country that can be visited all year round.
A 5 or 4 week stay is fine to visit Yangon and its area. 3 or 4 years. Sightseeing, (overnight in Yangon, 4. day)
In Yangon sight seeing plus thirlyin, (former portugese fortress), and Yele Pagode, astonishing place wroth visit. 5th D.
Sightseeing on the way to/near Yangon - Bagan Forum
I extend my Myanmar trip for a few additional nights and wonder if anyone has any ideas for some places I can visit on the way between Yanangyaung and Yangon (to interrupt the trip) or within a few hour from Yangon. My last part of my route is to fly from Yanangyaung to Yangon, from Nyaung-U directly to Yangon (at this time I will have been before Yanangyaung Bagan.
I tried to search the maps for places between Yanangyaung and Yangon, but found nothing. From Yangyaung I am flying for 3 or 4 days to Hpa-an and back to Yangon. Twantay I wanted to see, but apparently there are many touristic excursions from Yangon.
Yangon Sights
YANGON, STILL OFTEN, known under the nickname Rangoon, is a town with different civilizations and architectures. It' s full of red-clad friars, shiny coupons and large historic houses, many of which have lost their nostalgic charms that you won't find anywhere else in Asia. Known for its great 2500-year-old Shwedagon Pagoda, Myanmar's most stunningly beautiful sacred sanctuary and an immaculate icon of a land where Buddhism rules every facet of the world.
Yangon is a diverse cultural, culinary and religious centre with many Hindu and Chinatels, churches, mosques and a temple, thanks to the diverse ethnical groups that live in the town. Bustling streets are full of outdoor stands with a choice of food from the area, many tea houses full of chats and market full of new products.
Myanmar's biggest metropolis, Yangon, which may still be identifiable by its former name, is still a surprisingly contradictory one. The decade-long culture and economy of the old part of the old quarter with its endless roads of dilapidated old settlement houses, unstable power and overcrowded shovel busses is still clearly noticeable.
Intra-continental shields and necklaces, which are beginning to overlay many other towns in the area, are recognizable by their complete absence, and the foundations of inner-city living - street vendors, a high café on the roadside, decaying market squares and rising stupas appear in areas strangely unscathed by today's underworld.
But the wind of flux is already blowing through the town, with many old Japaneese automobiles populating the roads of the town, along with a rapidly growing number of fancy restaurants, stylish locals snack bars, illuminated advertising boards and stores offering the latest trays, smart phones and other auxiliaries. They all reflect the strange sense of a town that has become estranged in time: one that is painstakingly fashionable but several centuries outdated - perhaps at the heart of the city's extraordinary allure.
Yangon really is a town of two parts for the tourist. This old metropolis - or Yangon as it is commonly known - remains by far the most intriguing area in this fast-growing megacity, an enchanting metropolis of picturesquely decaying Colonian structures with golden -coloured Buddhaist palagodas, market towns, museums and ancient China and Hindus.
On the way north are the endless towns of today's Yangon, a mostly dull town with a number of flowery Buddha Schools and the Kandawgyi Lake and Lake Kandawgyi. One of the most famous is the amazing Shwedagon Pagoda, one of the most beautiful Buddhistic churches in the whole wide globe.
Short Story Yangon is by Myanmar standard a comparable novelist, which originated mainly in Burma's Colonies, although its origins can be retraced back to the early Myanmar past. They exercised their rule in lower Burma, although it remained a somewhat secluded place despite the prestigious Shwedagon Pagoda.
Alaungpaya, who established the Konbaung dynasty in 1775, conquered Dagon, re-named it Yangon and directed trading here from near Thanlyin, the former central dock. The British conquered Yangon during the First Anglo-Burmese War, which continued from 1824-1826, but returned it to the Burmese after the end of the 1827 antagonisms.
Yangon's unanticipated and abrupt ascent to the nation's supremacy came after the Second Anglo-Burmese War of 1852, during which the British reconquered the state. This formerly humble metropolis was selected as the site for the new Indian Ocean capitol of Burma because of its position on the Indian Ocean and the Ayeyarwady River, which runs about 1600 km into the centre of the state.
This very old Mon housing estate on the waterfront was demolished and an eye-catching new urban layout based on the grid map drawn up by military technician Alexander Fraser was published. After Upper Burma was captured in 1885 during the Third Anglo-Burmese War, the British call Rangoon a recognized trading and business town.
New, magnificent Indo-Saracen and neo-classical style structures were constructed, new clinics, museums and universities were constructed, a railroad was constructed, parklands and Kandawgyi and Inle Lake were constructed to provide the new borough with fresh waters. Considerable numbers of inhabitants also emigrated from other parts of the British Empire to the new town, especially to India, giving the town a pronounced subcontinental flavour that continues to this very day.
After World War I, Rangoon became the centre of the Burmese independence movements, led by Yangon University undergraduates, founded by the Brits, culminating in a series of countrywide strike action in 1920, 1936 and 1938. During the Second World War the Brits were eventually toppled, and the town came under Japan's rule (from 1942 to 1945), before being reconquered by the Allies in 1945 after having suffered severe war.
Independent After gaining political power in 1948, Rangoon became the capitol of Burma's new union. It continued its ex-ponentitious external growth, with new suburbs in the north of the old town. At the same time, the demographic composition of the town changed significantly, with many of Burma's inhabitants of India origin, as well as the town, which once had a large Jewish and other culturally diverse population, which left after New Win's liberation and later during the New Win War.
A number of streets of the old settlement were renamed, and the nation's army leaders in 1989 moved the name of the town from Rangoon back to Yangon, although various different locals and non-governmental organisations did not recognise the new name, and the old name is still in use.
The year 2005 saw a big emblematic blow to the town when a new Burma capitol was born. Although Yangon has lost its position as capitol and loses some ministry privilege on its way there, it remains to a large degree the centre of the country's politics, economy and culture.
Yangon The old town from the Colonian period - today commonly known as Yangon is still the heart and spirit of today's Yangon and by far the most alluring area. In the 1850s, sketched by the Britons, the inner centre includes a geometric road system of only about 1 km depth and 5 km width, although the original draft is completely inadequate to cope with the mere mass of pedestrians and vehicles in the twenty-first Century.
The city centre remains one of the great projects of Asian Colonisation, despite rapid growth, with a number of neo-classical urban areas in states of severe decay and congestion. Yangon's bustling road scene is covered with pavement and alleys full of traders, buyers, food stands, tugs, transport and red-clad friars, too many to believe it - it's definitely a place to walk past gradually to get to know the intricacies.
It' also a place that has the best of Yangon's multi-ethnic legacy, with a thick mix of muslim beards, smudged by thanakas, pallid Tamils from China and dark-skinned Tamils, all moving unhurriedly between innumerable sidewalk cafés and sidewalk booths. The Sule Pagoda is located in the heart of Yangon city center, the Sule Pagoda is the most evident of all Buddhist monasteries in Burma.
His ascending gold Stupa gives the old settlement its symbol, to which all roads seem to converge. Located at the centre of the 1859' UK map, the pit is still the centrepiece of inner-city living, both cultural and physical (the total distances to other parts of the land are still determined by the pit, similar to the Myanmar interpretation of London's Charing Cross).
Illuminated at dusk, the panorama is extraordinarily breathtaking, even if it seems a bit preposterous during the afternoon, insulated in a busy round-about, in an infinite whirlpool of transport and with a string of small stores that face outwards into their sides. The story says that the Buddha was built when the Buddha himself was still living, but a more probable, though prose report is that it can be retraced back to the Mon period in the 10th cent.
More recently, during the 1988 and 2007 Saffron Revolutions, the Suleagoda was an important meeting place for pro-democracy supporters - and the site of a reckless massacre during the latter, when the army opened fire on unwieldy demonstrators. From each point of the cardinals there are 4 stairs that lead to the couch, with 4 similar chests connected to the basis of the stupas at the top of all the stairwells, all with striking gold canopies.
It sits on an octagon pedestal similar to Burma's default pedestal, but is unusual, as both the tower and the stupa's cupola take on the octagon instead of the round form adopted by almost all other stupas in Burma. The Mahabandoola Garden Mahabandoola Garden is a tranquil urban garden offering a celestial place with open spaces amidst the super-compressed inner cities of Yangon and a sanctuary for the nationalists.
It was formerly called Fytche Square in honour of the Chief Commissioner of British Burma, Albert Fyche. Later it was rechristened after the legendary commander of Burma's armed force during the first Anglo-Burmese war, General Mahabandoola (or MahaBandula), and is also the seat of the rising monument of liberation that honors Burma's freedom in 1948.
Mahabandoola Gardens with its small bonsai-like shaped tree is a nice place to unwind after the busy sidewalks in the city centre, and also offers great views of the neighbouring Sule Pagoda and City Hall. The best collections of Yangon's colorful rural architecture is located in the area just south of Mahabandoola Gardens and on Pansodan Street.
To the north of Mahabandoola Gardens there is the sky-blue Town Hall (1924), whose neo-classical forms are lightened by an uproar of substitution-oriental, appealing motives consisting of tiny stony bars, a few kites above the main door and a peach in between. Recently underwent a great refurbishment and now looks immaculate; an example of how these magnificent old structures could look if enough cash, attention and attention were made.
Across the Mahabandoola Road, some unique spines are enthroned above the 1952 Immanuel Baptist Glasses ( "the first temple ordered by a U.S. misionary in 1885 after it was demolished in World War II), while on the eastern side of the Mahabandoola Gardens is the former Supreme Court courtyard (1911) in general neo-classical design with cream-colored detail, dominated by a huge brickwork spire steeple.
Panjodan St. The most famous adress of the town was once the south end of Panjodan St., and to this date the road is bordered by an authentically beautiful old settlement. Starting from the intersection connecting Mahabandoola Road, the Government Telegraphic Office is the first large edifice, although it now looks a bit run-down, with an upstairs floor falling down and a wireless tower hurriedly falling onto the canopy.
That used to be the core of urban living, the stores with Scotch whiskey, British candy, British candy, British cigarette and the Reuters Telegraph Bureau. Strand Hotel The Strand Hotel is situated in downtown Yangon's adress for the rich and famous. Looks like a leisurely old queen amidst the infamous hustle and bustle of Yangon's remarkable but dilapidated beach road.
Designed exclusively for white people (the Burmese were not accepted until 1945), the Burmese were described by John Murray in his travelers' guide as "the best guesthouse west of the Suez" with visitors such as Somerset Maugham, Lord Mountbatten and Rudyard Kipling. Yangon's Secretariat The Giant Secretariat (also known as the Minister's Building) is the most prominent of all Yangon's monuments to colonialism.
It is a giant neo-classical house made of solid marble that occupies an area of 37,000 square metres, about two-thirds the area of the Louvre in Paris. Completed in 1902 (although the western and eastern wing were added three years later), the Secretariat remained the most famous historic and remarkable collective centre in Yangon; the former headquarters of the UK administration in Burma; the place where Aung San and six members of the government were cold-bloodedly murdered on 19 July 1947; and the place where the country's liberation ceremonies were held the following year.
Directly in the northern part of the Secretariat is the St. Mary's Roman cathedral and the biggest of its kind, the splendid St. Mary's Romantic Catholic one. The Netherlands based Jos Cuypers (son of Pierre Cuypers, who built Amsterdam Central Station and the Rijksmuseum) was responsible for the design of the edifice, which was finished in 1899 in a neo-Gothic architectural design very similar to that of the competing English Trinity Canal.
On the south side of the church is the huge B.E.H.S. (6) Botahtaung from 1860 - only two of all the primary school of the colonies (B.E.H.S.) that still characterize the town. Formerly known as St. Paul's English High School, it was one of the most prestigious in Yangon.
At Theinbyu Road in the west, you will find the all-girls B.E.H.S. (4) Botahtaung, formerly called St. Mary's Convent School, another outstanding old colorful souvenir that is still in use today. It provides worship to many Yangonite Indians living in the subcontinental municipality at the western end of Anawrahta Road (the formerly ubiquitous Yangon descendant of today's Yangon, who established themselves in the town during the UK rule).
The Botataung Pagoda is the second of the two most important Buddhistic Yangon pagods of the Yangon colony and is situated on the east side of the city. It can be retraced back to the Mon era, about the same time as the Shwedagon Pagoda, although a lost RAF bombing was largely destroyed in 1943 (targeting nearby Yangon quays).
Reconstruction work began on 4 January 1948, the first date of the country's liberation. The Bogyoke Market and around Bogyoke Market or Bogyoke Aung San Market (official name), is situated on the north side of Yangon town. This is the city's most important touristic honing vessel, the seat of Myanmar's most diverse and strange gift stores, a series of jewellery, wall paintings and other collectors' items.

It is pertinent to remember that, whereas religious leaders are free and able to make such false utterances to thousands of people and to have them reported widely by the press and media, there is no reciprocal reaction by the Aga Khan and his followers.

Unlikely Alliance, Verse 9
"Hey, I know its late but we can make it if we run…" he interjected, in the hopes of finally persuading the two women to get moving.
TT was trying, yet again, to smooth things over between Mary and Kitty, but his efforts were fruitless. He had been listening to this same exchange since the day of the thievery at the office in New York and held no hopes of solving the problem between the two. Mary insisted that she should have been told that Kitty was part of the alliance when they met at the apartment building, Kitty insisted that it was not her decision to make. Now that TT had shared his family history with the group, it only added more fuel to Marys fire.
They were all involved in a supposed alliance, but the one in control of the operation was many miles away and calling the shots via electronic communications. Mary had blindly followed Hollys directives, assuming that the information she was receiving was the same that other members were privy to. If she had been aware of who all of the players had been during that inning of the game, she thought, she could have more effectively helped to up the score. And was she being given all of the known facts now?
When it came down to it, she felt betrayed. Since Holly had stopped communicating with the group, gone completely dark, and Alyce had taken their phones, the entire alliance was being led only by Happy's confessions and TTs word. Opting to save this battle for yet another day, she stuffed her belongings down into her suitcase and scrolled through her mental checklist, giving one last stroke to the back waistband of her jeans.
Still there.
Alyce had demanded the surrender of all communication devices early that morning. Her unwanted guest had admitted that he was tracking all of their movements, so each persons electronics would need to be destroyed. Ignoring the large party's heated protests, she gathered their phones, pads and laptops and added them to the pile in the driveway that held her private server, cellphones and computers.
Kitty was scrambling through the rooms with her heels ablaze. Most of the other guests had already left to catch the earlier train, but since she and Mary were again locked in argument, their group of three had opted to take the next one out of town. The only way to check the time was to run into the kitchen or to one of the televisions, far more of an effort than was usual. The hard truth was that none of them were functioning normally without their cellphones.
Finally agreeing to disagree, the ladies said goodbye to Alyce and headed out the door with their nonplussed referee. They were just in time to witness the first hard wallop of the sledgehammer being wielded by Jack, slamming into the electronics laying on the plastic sheeting in the driveway. He and CookSam were in old coveralls, wearing safety goggles that were almost as wide as TT Davis's sunglasses. Bundles of small plastic bags and larger trash bags were in a heap on the plastic, bouncing with every wild strike. The group of three yelled their goodbyes and gave the driveway a large berth as they hustled away to the train station.
CookSam was thoroughly enjoying his task. Since he was not able to deliver the blows to the man who he thought deserved them, this was the next best thing. As long as he stayed out of the way of the flying debris that Jack was supplying, they could proceed on with their day as planned. The VW microbus had been mostly loaded with their gear, Alyce was in the kitchen wrapping up food for the road, and Jack was making quick work of busting the expensive components into a mash of splintered plastic and wire.
Removing their sweaty eyewear, the two men agreed that the job was complete and well done. Stuffing the pile of debris onto the trailer hitched to Alyces bus was a bit of a trick since there were already several bags of her garbage on board, but with Jack taking the lead and most of the weight, they settled the strapped in bundles in short order. A quick stop at the city dump and the trailer would be ready for future use.
The back of the vehicle was packed with the shovels, umbrellas, rakes and buckets needed, along with several taped up boxes and tins. When Jack questioned the necessity of bringing so many items, Alyce sharply told him that there was nothing unnecessary, nothing more useless in the van than the supplies that they would be picking up at Jacks warehouse.
Viewing this statement as a challenge, Jack dug in his heels.
There needed to be room for samples, which would take up much more space than the empty buckets. Alyces small, home made trailer would be adequate space for the other items they were getting, but with the addition of the cooler of food next to CookSam and the satchel on the floor of the passengers seat, they would have a hard time fitting their personals in. Couldnt they weed out some boxes that were in the way?
Alyce ignored all of his protests, threw her bags in behind CookSams seat, and mounted herself onto her co pilots throne. Pulling the satchel up onto her lap, she settled herself in for the journey. Now she would just have to wait for the two men to finish up the lock down of her property and they could be on their way.
Opening the satchel, she thumbed through its contents one more time. Hand written notes, maps and diagrams, property deeds and the pouch that contained greeting cards. Everything she needed. Feeling nostalgic, she took out a few of the cards to admire the artwork on each. They were faded and bent with scenes of rustic farms and elaborate script proclaiming each ones greeting. Some were better than thirty years old and acted as portals into her past. As was usual, she opened the cards one by one and got lost in her memories.
While Jack checked all of the doors, CookSam did the perimeter check of the building. He preferred to stay out of the fracas and had his own thoughts to distract him. If all of the timing was right, he would meet up with William and be able to go over business details before they got into the alliances dirty work. Since his son now had a reliable vehicle and important work was now at hand, he had no doubt that William had taken care of their shared business interests.
His son would eventually inherit the label printing operation that CookSam had taken over decades ago. Maybe not a glamorous endeavor, but the shop had provided for his family in good times and bad, which was something to be proud of. They operated out of Ohio, but had many dealings with farmers and small plants near Pittsburgh and the more rural areas of Pennsylvania. He anticipated that in a years time, he would hand it all over to his son and retire with more than a few feathers in his cap.
Satisfied that things were secure, CookSam hoisted himself into the back seat of the VW, followed by Jacks rapid entrance into the vehicle and subsequent slamming of the drivers door. Alyce jumped at their entry and appearing flustered, hastily stuffed the cards on her lap back into the satchel . Reaching the agreement that they were ready to go, Jack slowly rolled the bus and trailer out of Alyces driveway.
They were barely down the street when they heard the music coming from the large bag perched on Alyces legs. It was not an unusual sound, but for the fact that all of their devices had been destroyed and this was certainly the ringtone of a cellphone. It sounded like an acoustic guitar playing the unmistakable first notes of an Arlo Guthrie song and Alyce couldn't dig down in the bag fast enough to make it stop.
As the music played on and Jack pulled over, sheets of paper and greeting cards flew around the front seat of the VW microbus. A Merry This and a Happy That, many wishes from long ago that were now littering the interior. As Alyce finally reached the hidden phone at the bottom of the satchel, Jack read the card that had landed on the top of the steering wheel.
The outside of the anniversary card was decorated with a painting of roses in a glass vase placed upon a lace cloth. The inside had a short poem, professing undying love for the receiver, who had spent so many years making the giver happy.
It was signed Forever Yours,
Previous The Custodian, Part VI

For this install I will be using two USB drives, one as an installer the second to install to. Alternatively you could create two partitions on the installer USB if its big enough (16gb or larger) and install to the second partition this however will slow down the install. Later when I have the install stable enough I will extend this guide to make it an internal multi boot guide.
Right click Install OS X 10.10 Developer Preview.app and go to show package Contents/ Contents/ Shared Support/ then mount InstallESD.dmg. Rightclick BaseSystem.dmg click open to mount OS X Base System as well.
In Disk Utility partition a usb hard drive or thumb drive as Mac osx extended journaled with a GUID partition table.
click "OSX Base System" under "BaseSystem.dmg" in the left side of DiskUtility then click Restore. Drag USB partition you just created into the Destination slot. (OS X Base System should be in the "source" slot). Click Restore at the bottom. Give it time to transfer.
Your drive will now be renamed "OS X Base System", right click it and select reveal "OS X Base System" in finder. Now right click OS X Base System and go to Get info. In info rename it to "Installer".
in the folder System > Installation. Delete the "Packages" alias in the same folder.
Back in Disk Utility reopen the original OS X Install ESD, copy BaseSystem.chunklist and BaseSystem.dmg to from there to the external "Installer" partition.
Paste all the kexts from the Preboot folder of the downloaded Ativinstallpack into the Other folder.
Once finished eject your newly made installer usb drive and plug it into one of the ports on the ativ. Keep in mind the top port is the only 3.0 version and in theory should install the quickest. Boot the device holding volume down, once the boot menu appears select the UEFI version of your usb installer. (ex: UEFI:Sandisk ) hit enter.
Once inside clover select your usb drive and hit enter again then wait of the installer to load.
Click Continue > Continue > Agree and select the second partition you want to install to. For me this is another USB drive.
When the install is finished the computer will restart. Now repeat steps 7 and 8 on the newly made drive where you installed yosemite to install clover and the pre boot kexts to that drive.
Boot the new drive, go thru the initial setup and then use kext wizard to install the kexts in the "POSTBOOTSTANDARD" folder of the ativ pack. After that repair caches and restart. You should now have brightness with slider, battery icon (no accuracy), and volume rocker (still without sound).
I also included a postboot with macpwn folder in the kext pack incase you used the macpwn method because you will actually have working battery. But I will not include a macpwn guide because its pretty straight forward. This guide is more bare bones for anyone to use.
nice to see a new guide here in the tablet section, welcome.
Niresh's MacPwn is one of those tools that are not supported by insanelymac.
Oh ok, thanks for the quick response and friendly welcome! I was actually wondering about that and was considering finding a new way as I dont think its really necessary just seemed easiest for beginners. I like that you addressed it the way you did. In other forums I get posts deleted for even mentioning other software hence why I came back here. I will work on another boot method now and have it updated shortly!
Exactly! The tonymac forum was the one I was referring to being nazis about posts thats why I was surprised by the friendly way you guys responded. I didnt want to say the other forum by name partly because they dont deserve the mention. It blows my mind that someone would try to start an incredibly restricted website based on hacking. Anyway back on topic. I rewrote the entire thing from scratch without using any tools and got it to install, now for some reason when I install my kext pack it breaks it. Im sorting it out now and trying to pin point the kext responsible and will have a new guide up soon. Is it okay that I leave the macpwn method up for now? Dont know much about the site and im not affiliated with Niresh, but his tools seem legit and have been very helpful in making the process faster for now.
Hey thanks for the tip Jah, But I already tried that. All the contents are protected somehow as "bom" files. Maybe im too new but I have no idea how to get at the contents. Ive figured out a way without it but the battery isnt working, its strange.
Nevermind, i figured it out. But it shouldnt really matter what the contents are as it just makes the bootdrive but who knows. Will keep you posted.
bom files aren't protected, they aren't meant to be opened, they are just instructions for the installer. Bom stands for Bill of Materials.
the guide its cleaner and easier to follow, good work!
Wifi: NO GO, I looked into it, it would take more programming than it was worth to pull an old PCIe wifi card out of a dead laptop and rig it in.
(Note: Cannot change brightness using keys, it brings up the interface, but doesn't actually change.
G-Sensor/Accelerometer: Not yet tested, I turned it upside down and sideways and the screen didn't rotate, but that's probably because apple doesn't have any computers that do so, probably would work with some fancy programming.
Currently installing DP2 update. Will keep you posted.
OsX don't support automatic screen rotation and there isn't any kext that actually enable accelerometer... btw If you want you can search for screen rotator for menubar to manually rotate.
have fun and good hack!
look forward to getting this running on mine as soon as the final is out, mavericks is running pretty great these days, but to have the touch and pen fixes built in would be a real plus.
Does the touch and pen work with any kext injecting or swapping? I imagine you would be able to install the actual wacom software and get palm rejection and calibration if that is the case. In Yosemite the pen and touch work OOB but the wacom software is not compatible which makes it kind of pointless as there is neither palm rejection or calibration (even tho the pen is very accurate and has pressure).
I'm trying to see if they will discount the drivers for it, but I've only just sent the email last night, we'll see.
BTW: the install for the beta 2 failed, but shows up as successful, however the software number didn't change, and none of the new features/apps show up. I'm going to try a fresh install from the beta 2 app instead of updating through the app store.
The battery manager works fine for me as does FaceTime. You say you have sleep and sound tho? What kexts/process did you use, please share so i can try it and add it to the guide. thanks!
about the TouchBase driver, it works perfectly under maverick even with multitouch gestures, now on Yosemite it (the gesture manager app) crashes, but their fix will be ready when the public beta starts.
Awesome, thanks for the response. Ive switched gears a bit and have devoted the past couple days to hacking my cintiq companion and hope to put up a guide for that at some point soon as well. I will get back to the ativ soon as it seems way less picky. I swear every bit of freetime i get goes into hackintoshing whatever i can and eventually it starts to get frustrating and mind numbing. Its good to step away for a minute. Im also trying to write up some content for the new samsung forum section.
I installed the public beta of Yosemite and it strangely seems to have the touch feature taken away while pen is still supported and accurate. I find this odd because I installed it on my cintiq as well and it still has both touch without click, and pen without accuracy. So im really curious which kexts/frameworks are behind controlling these features and why they still cater to the pro cintiq digitizer layer and not the lower end ativ.
Thanks for the guide - Is there anyway to install this to the physical SSD of the ATIV?
i first installed Yosemite public beta to an external harddisc. then i cloned the installation to a partition on the SSD using SuperDuper. strangely, i only have the touch but not the pen. the pen seems to be detected by the os as the Ink preference pane is visible in the system preferences. but the pen does not do anything.
(better if you move them to some other folder in case you might need them later), rebuild kernel cache and reboot.
But no WiFi - can anyone please let me know how I can set this up??

Q: Program doesn't respond when I add canvas on enterFrame function I have been making a simple aplication and i have a problem i cannot find the solution (neither why it is happening)
The thing i want to do is to dynamically add a canvas containing a button to the application and then i want the canvas to be moved from the left side of screen to the right.
So i have made the following code
  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
  <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute"
   creationComplete="init()">

<mx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
        import mx.containers.Canvas;
        import mx.controls.Button;

        var ccanvas:Canvas = new Canvas();
        var canvasButton:Button = new Button();

        public function init():void{
            canvasButton.label="canvas Button";
            ccanvas.x=100;
            ccanvas.y=200;
            ccanvas.addChild(canvasButton);
            addChild(ccanvas);

            addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onEnterFrame);

        }

        public function onEnterFrame(event:Event):void{
            ccanvas.x+=1;
        }

    ]]>
</mx:Script>

 </mx:Application>

And it works just fine.
The next step is instead of using the Canvas i use a custom canvas ..
here is the CustomCanvas.mxml component
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" width="400" height="300">
     <mx:Button label="ccccButton" />
</mx:Canvas>

then i change the following code line
  var ccanvas:Canvas = new Canvas()

      to

  var ccanvas:CustomCanvas = new CustomCanvas();

the result is that there is no canvas displayed at the screen...the program doesn't do anything....
the most weird thing is that if i do not have an onEnterFrame function and i just add my custom canvas to the init() method it is been displayed properly. Even if i have an onEnterFrame but without changing the customCanvas's x value it is been displayed properly. But the moment i write in the
onEnterFunction the code  ccanvas.x +=1 the program doesnt display anything.... But if i do that with the original  Canvas object it is all ok,,,
What is happening here? how i can i make a custom canvas object and then be able to move it in a onEnterFrame method?
Thank you!!!!!!

A: Nice little problem.  It looks like the component-creation process is being short-circuited somehow, although to be honest, I'm not exactly sure how.
Nevertheless, waiting for the CustomCanvas to dispatch a creationComplete event before attempting to act on its display properties (which is good practice, anyway) fixes the problem.  See below, modified to add the listener for creationComplete, and waiting until that listener gets called to add the enterFramelistener:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute" creationComplete="init()">

 <mx:Script>
  <![CDATA[

   import mx.events.FlexEvent;
   import mx.containers.Canvas;
   import mx.controls.Button;

   private var ccanvas:CustomCanvas  = new CustomCanvas();
   private var canvasButton:Button = new Button();

   public function init():void
   {
    canvasButton.label="canvas Button";
    ccanvas.x = 100;
    ccanvas.y = 200;
    ccanvas.addChild(canvasButton);

    ccanvas.addEventListener(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE, ccanvas_creationComplete);
    addChild(ccanvas);
   }

   private function ccanvas_creationComplete(event:FlexEvent):void
   {
    addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onEnterFrame);
   }

   public function onEnterFrame(event:Event):void
   {
    ccanvas.x += 1;
   }

  ]]>
 </mx:Script>

 </mx:Application>

Truth be told, though, I'm not sure what the difference is between an mx:Canvas and your derived CustomCanvas in this case, in terms of the timing; maybe someone could chime in on that one.  But hopefully the solution will prove useful for ya, and again, it's good practice to Flex do its component-lifecycle thing before attempting to work with its components.
Hope it helps!

Are you ready to erase unsightly pigmentation such as acne scars, rosacea, or spider veins from your face or body? Vbeam is the latest gentle, but effective treatment option that can reduce or even erase red discoloration, small vessels, and scar tissue to reveal clear, vibrant skin. (Santa Monica Only).
To learn more about this cutting-edge treatment option and to discuss whether it is the best treatment for you, please do not wait to schedule a consultation with the expert dermatologists at Ava MD. Dr. Ava Shamban, Dr. Soheil Simzar, and Dr. Gregory Van Dyke have extensive training and experience with Vbeam and can help you achieve a beautiful, youthful appearance. Call 310-843-9915 (Beverly Hills) or 310-828-2282 (Santa Monica), or simply contact us online today!
Vbeam is a non-ablative, pulsed dye laser that penetrates the skin in pulses as a dye is used to achieve different colors of laser beams, depending on the skin condition being treated. The Vbeam also leaves the top layers of the skin alone, while treating deeper levels of the skin where pigmentation and problem issues reside. Since the top layers of skin are not cut or burnt, the treatment has little to no side effects and does not require lengthy recovery time like previous traditional cosmetic dermatology treatments.
Additionally, the Vbeam uses a Dynamic Cooling Device that cools the skin to not only make the treatment comfortable, but also to protect the superficial layers of the skin at the surface. Most patients describe a Vbeam session as feeling like the sharp sensation of a rubber band snapping against the skin, however, the side effect is usually just a mild redness or swelling at the treatment area that generally disappears in a few hours to a few days.
Vbeam is known as one of the most powerful vascular lasers on the market, achieving desirable results in a shorter period of time. Less sessions are required and can provide full results with little to no downtime.
Contact a Board-Certified Vbeam Dermatologist Today!
When makeup, lotions, and face washes fail to cover up or erase unattractive skin conditions and discoloration, the non-ablative laser therapy of Vbeam is an ideal, non-intensive option for targeting problem areas at the root cause in the deeper layers of the skin. If you are ready to get clear, radiant skin without excessive downtime or obvious side effects, Vbeam may be the solution for you!
Please do not hesitate to contact Ava MD for more information about this safe, cutting-edge laser treatment and whether it can help you achieve the fresh, beautiful skin you want. Call us at 310-843-9915 (Beverly Hills) or 310-828-2282 (Santa Monica). or simply contact us online today!

'Sathyam Paranja Viswasikkuvo?' is for families: Sajeev Pazhoor
National Award-winning scenarist on his new Malayalam film project, which is directed by G Prajith
A National Award-winning scenarist, a filmmaker who made his mark with his début film, an all-time favourite leading lady who is making a comeback, a bankable lead actor, a stellar line-up of character artistes, award-winning producers… Sathyam Paranja Viswasikkuvo?, which releases on July 12 has many aspects to look forward to.
Directed by G Prajith, who made the runaway hit Oru Vadakkan Selfie, and scripted by Sajeev Pazhoor, scenarist of Thondimuthalum Driksakshiyum, the movie zooms into the lives of a group of masons.

Central characters are Suni (Biju Menon) and his wife, Geetha (Samvritha Sunil), who had eloped with him when he came to work at her house. Then there is Suni's gang of friends-cum-coworkers comprising his uncle Karuppayi (Alencier Ley Lopez), Thamara (Sudhi Koppa), Prasad (Dinesh Prabhakar) and Shanavaz (Mangal). "As their lives moves on with laughs and squabbles, certain incidents throw their lives out of gear," says Sajeev, without revealing more about the storyline.
Sajeev says that he spent many days with masons and interacted with them to know their lives up close. "They work hard and have a drink after the day's work. We might get an impression that they are being reckless. But in reality they are very happy and enjoy every moment. They live in the present. Even when a married couple fight over the husband's drinking habits, they still love each other. We have tried not to miss out on many such special moments," Sajeev adds. Several real-life masons have also acted in the movie.
A still from 'Sathyam Paranja Viswasikkuvo?'
The scenarist also points out that there aren't any extraordinary incidents in the narrative. "This is a film meant for families. We have been able to execute the situations in the way we wanted. There is situational humour and we hope people will be entertained," he says. So, what's it about the title? "You can connect it to Suni. His nature is such that you can't trust him easily until he emphasises that he is telling the truth," Sajeev says.
As the conversation veers to Thondimuthalum… Sajeev asserts that Sathyam Paranja… is a new terrain altogether. "Whatever recognition I got for Thondimuthalum.. ends with that film and I shouldn't be clinging on to that success for the rest of my career. I have to get out of that, otherwise that will become a liability. This film is of a totally different flavour and you can't compare the two. Perhaps, the only similarity between the two is that this movie also takes up an issue that can happen in our lives," he says.
Produced by Remadevi, Sandip Senan and Anish M Thomas, it was shot in parts of Kannur and Kozhikode. "However, the characters don't speak the dialect of the region," Sajeev adds.
Shehnad Jalal is the cinematographer and Ranjan Abraham the editor. Music is by Shaan Rahman and Viswajith and Bijibal has done the background score.
AN INTERESTING TALE
Sathyam Paranja Viswasikkuvo? was a project that was bound to happen, says G Prajith. "Sajeev and I have known each for years. We have been planning to do a project together for some time. Finally, Sajeev took the initiative to make it happen. When he narrated the story, I thought it was an interesting story to film," says Prajith. He adds that situations in the movie have been kept real to complement the depth of the subject.
G Prajith
The director adds that Biju Menon's was the first name that came up as Sajeev developed the story. "And Samvritha just fit into the role of Geetha with her looks and body language," he says.
Prajith gives full credit to his team for the way the film has turned out. "The credit to the success of my first film (Oru Vadakkan Selfie) should go to the people who worked with me. In fact, I have been working with some of them for many years before that. Whereas in Sathyam Paranja… I've collaborated with several new faces in front of and behind the camera. But there was tremendous support from all of them," he says.
So, is he worried about proving his mettle again? "I believe that each film is an acid test for any director, whether it is his first or second or whichever number. We take a lot of strain and put in the same kind of effort in every project. The only thing I can do is make the project better," Prajith says.

The Mezzo-Soprano Liliana Nikiteanu at the Theater an der Wien
Tuesday, 19 February 2013 , ora 8.09
The mezzo-soprano Liliana Nikiteanu is part of the cast performing Gioachino Rossini's Le Comte Ory at the Theater an der Wien. Although the leading female role is interpreted by the South African soprano Pretty Yende, on 20th February, Liliana Nikiteanu will join stage with the mezzo-soprano Cecilia Bartoli. The character of count Ory is performed by Lawrence Brownlee and the conducting version belongs to Jean-Christoph Spinosi. When asked about the collaboration with the prestigious performers, the renowned Romanian artist replied:
The teamwork has been wonderful; working with Jean- Christophe Spinosi is a first for me and probably it is not the last collaboration together as we have got along very well which I also have with Lawrence. Going into detail about the cast, I have to mention that Mrs Cecilia Bartoli, who was to interpret the role of the Countess, was unlucky enough to fall ill and that was the reason why another artist who came only two days before the premiere from New York had to replace her. Pretty Yende is a very young colleague who possesses an exceptional talent. In January, this year, she also rendered the Countess in Le Comte Ory at the Metropolitan Opera.
How would you describe the role that you are interpreting on the Viennese stage? Is it an endeavour for you?
It is a peculiar role, which is actually a unique share to my repertoire due to its focus on the character rather than on the melody as it lacks any aria but the performance begins and ends with it which justifies its length; however, it remains a character- oriented part. It is the first time playing the role of a rather old person weighting more than 220 pounds and I admit it was not easy for me at the beginning but I was quick to adapt and the collaboration with the director Moshe Leiser and his partner Patrice Caurier was of great help.
