1. Decneut, Stijn. Separation of Concerns for Multimedia Publication in Heterogeneous Environments .
▼ A direct result of the approach in this thesis is that content creators need no longer bother with a multitude of client platform specifications and connecting networks. Their primary concerns are the multimedia applications they publish, the data formats in which those applications are stored and the way in which they are experienced by clients. The actual operations, that ensure a high quality of experience for the client, can be performed by other organisations that operate in the network. Naturally, these operations will be mostly based on guidelines provided by the multimedia creators.

2. Kelley, Bevin L. Terms of Addition: Compositions and Strategies for Electro-Acoustic Chamber Ensemble.
▼ Abstract of "Terms of Addition: Compositions and Strategies for Electro-Acoustic Chamber Ensemble" by Bevin L. Kelley, PhD., Brown University, May 2014 "Terms of Addition: Compositions and Strategies for Electro-Acoustic Chamber Ensemble" explores, documents, and contextualizes three compositions for multimedia electro-acoustic chamber ensemble – Preservation, Terms of Addition, and Emblazoned. Couched within a multimedia environment, these works are scored for live electronic audio and video performer (using a custom built computer-music controller), violin, viola, sculptural object, two live voices and two recorded voices. Audio is spatialized into nine channels of surround sound. The challenges of writing music-based works for multimedia – such as blending strings, voices, and electronics into a unified sonic whole, and creating performable electronic 'liveness' that is also highly structured, responsive and synchronized – are discussed. Chapters address specific solutions and strategies for integrating multiple forms of media, compositional and theoretical influences, historical predecessors, and related technologies. Special attention is devoted to the concept of using 'speculated sonic fictions' as a basis for text-based music-centered multimedia compositions / environments. Audio and video documentation of the dissertation performances, full score and libretto, and links to the associated CD/Vinyl release are included within the appendices.

3. Cetilia, Mark J. Schaulust: A Study in Light and Sound.
▼ "Schaulust: A Study in Light and Sound" is an investigation into the development of a new audiovisual performance platform called Schaulust. This platform pairs custom hardware and software designed specifically for use in real-time improvisation with stroboscopic light, robotically-controlled mirrors, and large, optical-quality cast-glass prismatic lenses. The resulting performances are full-body experiences that embrace the base pleasures afforded by the generation and manipulation of light and sound as physical objects, evolving over time from the hypnotic to the chaotic. The work is grounded in a firm foundation of experimental film, video, and the performance of electroacoustic music, and is informed by the histories of structural / materialist film, paracinematic performance, noise, and techno. This document is an exploration of the Schaulust platform and its use in the author's dissertation piece, a site-specific performance that took place on November 14, 2014 in the basement of Brown's Student Center. The written work presents an overview of the project's foundations and essential characteristics from artistic and technical perspectives, as well as an examination of its historical precedents and formative influences, concluding with an analysis of the dissertation performance, a discussion of future directions, and detailed documentation.

4. Krepstekies, Colleen. News Media Representations of Women in the U.S. Military Post September 11, 2001.
▼ This paper examines newspaper portrayals produced by the  Washington Post, the New York Times, and the Los Angeles Times of women in the military from Sept. 11, 2001, to Sept. 11, 2009. The purpose was to identify how the three nationally recognized U.S. newspapers depict women's expanding combat roles on contemporary battlefields that lack definitive front lines. Because the news media are the primary vehicle to update the general public on military matters, how the news media portray military women can play a role in shaping audience perceptions of military women. In turn, this relationship can influence the public debate on issues pertaining to women in the military. For my research method, I employed a longitudinal, qualitative content analysis of news articles that revealed three distinctively themed portrayals of U.S. servicewomen. The thematic findings include: "Tip of the Spear," a largely laudatory category portraying the "new" or "first" generation of servicewomen filling historically uncommon (particularly direct ground combat) roles for women; the "Combat Debate," with coverage listing arguments for and against military women's expansion into "direct ground combat;" and the "Sexual Assault" category that exposed women as continued victims of sexual assault across the U.S. Armed Forces. The portrayals of women in the "Tip of the Spear," and to a lesser extent in the "Combat Debate," reveal how these three particular newspapers are applying a new formula to represent military women. Rather than portraying military women in stereotypical support roles—or castigating them for transgressing gender norms—the stories from these papers cast the servicewomen performing traditional masculine military activities in a positive light. However, following objective reporting protocol, the reports in the "Combat Debate" category also covered conventional patriarchal concerns to include protecting women from harm, particularly military mothers. Overall, these two categories comprised the greater part of the coverage of military women among the reports in this study, with only a handful of reports covering women as victims. I propose that the many positive portrayals that describe women fulfilling nontraditional masculine roles and activities demonstrate a revised blueprint in how the news media report on military women. Furthermore, while these research results cannot be applied universally outside this study's sample, I contend that these types of images representing today's servicewomen on contemporary battlefields increase public acceptance of women in the military and their expanding military assignments.

5. Gundlach, Michael. A power-aware scheduler for streaming multimedia clients.
▼ Mobile computers consume signi .cant amounts of energy when receiving streamed multimedia data.The wireless network interface card (WNIC)consumes a large portion of this energy.One way to reduce the energy consumed is to transmit the packets to clients in a predictable fashion.Speci .cally,the packets can be sent in bursts to clients,who can then switch to a lower power sleep state between bursts. This technique is especially e .ective when the bandwidth of a multimedia stream is small. This paper investigates techniques for saving energy in a multiple-client scenario, where clients may be either (1)viewing streaming multimedia or (2)receiving back- ground (e.g.,web)data.Given the real-time requirements of multimedia tra .c,we di .erentiate network tra .c into two types:multimedia and background.We then generate di .erent global schedules for multimedia packets and background packets. Several di .culties arise with multiple clients,including delays,droughts and band- width limitations.Despite this,multimedia clients using our schedule save signi .cant energy with few missed packets,while general clients achieve reasonable end-to-end latency.For example,our schedule saves over 90%of the energy for ten multimedia clients viewing 56kbps video streams.With an additional 220kbps of web tra .c, end-to-end latency averages 32 ms,while multimedia clients save 86.9%.

6. Wei, Yong. Video personalization for resource-constrained environments.
▼ This dissertation has focused on the design and implementation of a client-centered multimedia content adaptation system suitable for mobile environments comprising of resource-constrained handheld devices or clients. The current proliferation of mobile computing devices and network technologies has created enormous opportunities for mobile device users to communicate with multimedia servers, using multimedia streams. One of the natural limitations of these handheld devices is that they are constrained by their battery power capacity, rendering and display capability, viewing time limit and in many situations, by the available network bandwidth connecting these devices to video data servers. Thus, it is a necessity to develop a mobile client-centered multimedia personalization system to fulfill clients' request while satisfying client-side resource constraints. The primary contributions of this work are (1) the overall architecture of the client-centered content adaptation system, (2) a data-driven multi-level hidden Markov model (HMM)-based approach to perform both video segmentation and video indexing in a single pass, (3) the formulation and implementation of a Multiple-choice Multi-dimensional Knapsack Problem (MMKP)-based video personalization strategy, (4) the multiple-stage client request aggregation strategy that reduces the mean client-experienced latency without significant reduction in the average relevance of the delivered video content to the client's request, and (5) a client-side energy-aware multimedia streaming strategy to efficiently utilize client's battery power. The overall framework of the system is modular and extensible. New techniques can be incorporated into the individual subsystems without changing other parts and the overall architecture of the system. Advisors/Committee Members: Suchendra M. Bhandarkar.

8. Javadi Moghaddam, Seyyed Mohammad. A distributed framework for multimedia using small world communities.
The continuous growth of multimedia content available all over the web israising the importance of a distributed framework for searching it. A novel two-tierstructure is introduced in this work, which focuses on the community concept tofacilitate creation of ontological small worlds that can effectively assist the searchtask. As a result, user queries are forwarded to nodes that are likely to contain therelevant resources. Evaluation of the framework proves that the small world characterof the proposed structure provides queries with better route selection and searchingefficiency.

9. Alamri, Safi S. Text-independent, automatic speaker recognition system evaluation with males speaking both Arabic and English.
▼ Automatic speaker recognition is an important key to speaker identification in media forensics and with the increase of cultures mixing, there?s an increase in bilingual speakers all around the world. The purpose of this thesis is to compare text-independent samples of one person using two different languages, Arabic and English, against a single language reference population. The hope is that a design can be started that may be useful in further developing software that can complete accurate text-independent ASR for bilingual speakers speaking either language against a single language reference population. This thesis took an Arabic model sample and compared it against samples that were both Arabic and English using and an Arabic reference population, all collected from videos downloaded from the Internet. All of the samples were text-independent and enhanced to optimal performance. The data was run through a biometric software called BATVOX 4.1, which utilizes the MFCCs and GMM methods of speaker recognition and identification. The result of testing through BATVOX 4.1 was likelihood ratios for each sample that were evaluated for similarities and differences, trends, and problems that had occurred.

It details the inspirations and foundations for the creative project from a theoretical, technical and aesthetic perspective. In addition, it contains critical commentary and analysis, but should never be read solely as a review or summary of the work completed. Instead, it should also be considered an exploration of the underlying fundamentals that form the basis of an original interdisciplinary approach to aesthetic production, research and general inquiry.

16. Grinnan, Suzanne. Red and green make yellow: An Interactive multimedia tutorial designed to teach the basic concepts of additive and subtractive color.
▼ The division between designers and printers is becoming increasingly blurred as the capabilities of the desktop environment improve. Electronic imaging is one area where this disintegration is rapidly occurring. Abilities that were formerly the domain of the color separator, image assembler, and printer, such as scanning, color correction, and film separation, are available through many popular software programs. Unfortunately, the education required to allow the proper application of these software options is not as accessible as the tools themselves. Both printers and graphic designers will have to educate themselves about the emerging and changing technologies of the other. Eventually a common language will develop to facilitate the smooth production of designs created on the desktop. It is vital to the industry that students of design learn the terminology and technology of the printer, and that students of printing learn the terminology and technology of the designer. Educational institutes are one logical place for this process to begin. The purpose of this project was to develop a teaching tool addressing this need. The area of color was chosen as a focus because it is one of the areas where terminology and past learning experiences may conflict. A solid understanding of color is also becoming increasingly important as "desktop" systems operators prepare graphic designs directly for imagesetting. Interactive multimedia was determined to be the appropriate format for such a project and the subject matter was further defined. The result is a tutorial, created for beginning graphic and printing design students, which teaches the basic concepts of additive and subtractive color.

17. Daly, Maura. An Interactive multimedia presentation for the Department of Residence Life apartment area.
▼ As a Complex Director for Residence Life I have had to deal with many questions regarding life in the RIT apartment complexes. As an Editor I recognize the need for clear and easily accessible answers to commonly asked questions. This multimedia presentation should address both these issues. Created was a presentation for students that are interested in renting an apartment on campus. Currently there is nothing available, beyond a pamphlet, to help them make an informed choice about where to live. This presentation will aid the Department of Residence Life in their impact on occupancy because it will state clearly the advantages of living in the apartments connected to the cam pus. This presentation is ideal for transfer students who are unfamiliar with what RIT can provide for its residents. Included in the presentation are text, graphics, and a video describing the living accommodations and services offered to apartment residents. (Appendix A is a general outline of the presentation.) The Department of Residence Life has given their full approval and support to the project. Members of the department have evaluated the work, as it was completed, checking for accuracy and ensuring that the information is easily understood. While the presentation answers commonly asked questions it also re-inforces the idea that RIT is at the cutting edge of technology. By creating a multimedia presentation for Residence Life we will show students that RIT is able to implement the current technology they have been learning about in the news. This presentation was created primarily through the use of the program HyperStudio. This program was chosen because it is fairly easy to learn thus giving the Residence Life Department the opportunity to adapt the program quickly as changes occur in the information presented. In creating this presenation the computers in the Apartment Area office at Residence Life, a personal computer, and the IEPL lab were used. The Department of Residence Life may not be able to use the presentation because of budget constraints. Recommendations for use and possible expansion have been included should the necessary funding become available. Advisors/Committee Members: Romano, Frank.

18. Richman, Jacob Charles. The (unfinished) Ballad of Adam and Elena Emery: The Creation of a Multimedia Murder Ballad and The Development of a Working Method for Roving Performances.
▼ This project is a performance piece and accompanying dissertation paper based on a Rhode Island murder story from 1990. The piece is an evening-length performance setting of fragmented details of this tragic event for four dancers, nine musicians, and multiple interactive video, audio, and robotic installations. It is a "roving performance" staged in various rooms of a five-story church in downtown Providence, Rhode Island, in which the audience and performers freely move between installation spaces and performance scenes scattered throughout the building. The piece was performed on November 3rd and 4th, 2012. The paper describes the technical and aesthetic components of the piece and places it within a discussion of recent developments in multimedia performance, focusing on audience movement. It concludes with the creation of a new working method for building roving performances, developed through my own experience and couched in the philosophy of Henri Bergson's movement-based perception and Jacques Racière's "Emancipated Spectator."

19. Fletcher, Chelsea. How Technological Innovation in Media Provokes Industry and Regulatory Change.
The purpose of this thesis was to gain insight into the technology and regulation that is deeply ingrained in the television and media industries. Through two interviews conducted in Philadelphia, two industry professionals provided opinion and insight into the current landscape of television and media. Their deep understanding of the media industry landscape and the technological influences within this industry added support to trends already being documented. The key stakeholders that make up the television and media industry are evolving as is the technology that supports the industry and the stakeholders alike. Regulation of an industry that is evolving presents challenges for current legislation and in implementing new legislation. This thesis provides insights to understand past roles and decisions, present issues and direction for possible future changes.

21. Graham, Diana Elaine. USAGE FREQUENCY OF SUPPLEMENTAL MULTIMEDIA RESOURCES TO COMPLEMENT STUDENT LEARNING PREFERENCES.
▼ Implementing multimedia learning can be an effective way to teach difficult concepts to a diverse student audience with various learning styles. The objective of this study was to quantify the use of multimedia resources as well as the most common avenues of delivery in dental hygiene (DH) education. In addition, this study evaluated any educational delivery methods that may be required by the responding programs to determine if MMR use is standard practice in DH education. This study followed a descriptive quantitative primary research approach. Invitation to participate in a 42-item electronic survey facilitated through SurveyMonkey was emailed to 316 U.S. DH program directors (PDs) of all degree levels. The questionnaire addressed faculty classroom facilitation including types of digital resources, the frequency of use, and barriers faculty face in creating or directing access to multimedia resources (MMR). To assess faculty use of MMR as a standard practice, the survey evaluated existing requirements regarding digital resources. 78 PDs completed the survey yielding a 25% response rate. A high majority reported using video formats: 59 (76%) reported using YouTube videos and 60% reported using faculty created videos. Fifty-one percent of faculty post lecture podcasts and 44% of programs are using e-textbooks. While 51% indicated there were no barriers experienced using MMR, 43% cited slow internet connections. The results showed a high percentage (79%) of PDs feel the use of MMR will become standard practice for dental hygiene education with confidence interval values of .713 ≤ p ≤ .871 for .90 levels. Conversely, only 23% of PDs stated they do not require faculty members to use MMRs in their respective courses yielding confidence interval values of .697 ≤ p ≤ .858 for a .90 confidence level. These findings deliver insight into the most common media instructional strategies and are significant to DH education due to the increasing faculty awareness of the evolving learning style preferences for current DH students that include multimedia resources, especially video formats, for curricular supplementation.

22. Chu, Xinlei. Mongolian folklore expressed through music technology original multimedia soundtrack "On Horseback".
▼ I returned to my hometown and recorded Mongolian folk music—Mongolian Long Song and Mongolian Throat Singing. I wanted to combine technology and traditional folk music and write an electronic piece based on Mongolian vocal materials. I used what I've sampled, manipulated the sounds, composed the music, gathered the videos together and created this multimedia piece—On Horseback. The names of the four movements—Sand, Cloud, Water, and Fire—are four elements that I chose to represent the lifestyle in Inner Mongolia. This thesis covers the journey of how I created this piece. I've explored many variations of technology such as sound sampling, mixing, and video editing. I've also gained the chance to bring traditional Mongolian folk vocal music out of my hometown and present it in my own work.

26. Ramachandruni, Radha Krishna. Speeding up Adaboost object detection with motion segmentation and Haar feature acceleration.
▼ A key challenge in a surveillance system is the object detection task. Object detection in general is a non-trivial problem. A sub-problem within the broader context of object detection which many researchers focus on is face detection. Numerous techniques have been proposed for face detection. One of the better performing algorithms is proposed by Viola et. al. This algorithm is based on Adaboost and uses Haar features to detect objects. The main reason for its popularity is very low false positive rates and the fact that the classifier network can be trained for any detection task. The use of Haar basis functions to represent key object features is the key to its success. The basis functions are organized as a network to form a strong classifier. To detect objects, this technique divides each input image into non-overlapping sub-windows and the strong classifier is applied to each sub-window to detect the presence of an object. The process is repeated at multiple scales of the input image to detect objects of various sizes. In this thesis we propose an object detection system that uses object segmentation as a preprocessing step. We use Mixture of Gaussians (MoG) proposed by Staffer et. al. for object segmentation. One key advantage with using segmentation to extract image regions of interest is that it reduces the number of search windows sent to detection task, thereby reducing the computational complexity and the execution time. Moreover, owing to the computational complexity of both the segmentation and detection algorithms we used in the system, we propose hardware architectures for accelerating key computationally intensive blocks. In this thesis we propose hardware architecture for MoG and also for a key compute intensive block within the adaboost algorithm corresponding to the Haar feature computation.

27. Roberts, Jessica. Keeping It Real: A Historical Look at Reality TV.
▼ In the summer of 2000 CBS launched a wilderness and competition reality show called "Survivor." The show became a monster hit with more than fifty million viewers watching the finale, ratings only second to Super Bowl. That summer and that show forever changed many aspects of the television industry. Reality TV had been around for years, but with "Survivor" it began a period of lightening fast development, growth, and influence. During the past decade, many different reality shows have emerged and this research categorizes those shows into four sub-genres that it is argued all reality shows during this time could fit into. Those genres, and the hybrids of them that are still emerging, will play a huge part in how television in the future is created, financed, and produced. In addition, reality TV and all its genres have expanded what is considered acceptable as scripted and unscripted broadcast content in less than 10 years. The implications this has had and will continue to have on the television industry are numerous and important to understand if one is to recognize where television programs are headed in the future. This detailed history gives a much needed glimpse into the people, the programs, and the processes that went into creating one of the most dominant and influential formats of television programming today and in the future.

28. Hernández, Santiago. Error: infinito : Objeto electrónico interactivo.
El presente trabajo tiene como principal objeto de reflexión la idea de infinito en contraposición a los límites de nuestra realidad, para lo que es fundamental tener en cuenta la contradicción existente entre la posibilidad de conocer el infinito y la naturaleza humana finita. Así, será indispensable situarse en el universo del cálculo, los números y la matemática, ya que sólo a través de estas nociones el hombre es capaz de comprender al infinito con exactitud. El proceso de desarrollo y creación de la obra implicó una búsqueda hacia un soporte, un programa y una interfaz, que se aproximase a una representación y experimentación sensible del "número infinito". La obra, entonces, se concibe como un error desde su propio inicio debido a la imposibilidad de trasladar algo infinito, a un mundo principalmente compuesto de límites.

30. Cozzi, Dana. Aura : Instalación interactiva.
Aura es una instalación interactiva que explora el intercambio de energías que se produce entre las personas al interactuar, ya sea por proximidad o contacto físico. Todo individuo al vincularse socialmente, ya sea entre dos sujetos o en forma grupal por la inevitable necesidad de la comunicación, suelen acabar con su estado de ánimo afectado o con una sensación diferente en su cuerpo. Hay momentos en los que según con quien nos encontremos, podemos salir cansados y desmotivados u otras veces contentos y animados sin saber por qué. Esto se debe a la manera en que tienen las personas de relacionarse entre sí. Todas están rodeadas por un campo electromagnético, que se lo conoce como aura, que afecta su estado anímico. Esta vibración electromagnética varía e interactúa con todo lo que tenemos alrededor, por eso podemos tanto dar como absorber energía. Generalmente este proceso se lo realiza de manera inconsciente al relacionarse las personas entre sí. Esta obra pretende reflejar la idea de Aura, y como todos podemos ser afectados por la energía del otro.

Infrasense Carries Out Nondestructive Infrared Evaluation of Bridge Deck in Wisconsin - Infrasense Inc.
This past summer, Infrasense surveyed a bridge deck in La Crosse, Wisconsin using infrared for deck delamination detection according to ASTM D 4788 – 03. The equipment setup involved a dedicated vehicle mounted with a high resolution, distance triggered FLIR infrared camera synced up with a high-resolution visual spectrum camera. Both devices capture a whole lane width with each pass. Each pass was conducted at driving speed, with no disruption to traffic, and the 70-80-degree (F) temperatures made for a textbook day of surveying with outstanding data quality.
After collection, Infrasense also analyzed the data. The infrared data is reviewed simultaneously with the video data to identify delaminated areas vs. surface features; such as oil stains, sand, or debris. The white, blotchy areas that appear in the infrared data have a relatively higher temperature than their surroundings. This differential heating reveals a thermal barrier produced by a subsurface planar void, or delamination.
The client was provided with a table of quantities including the total area of delaminations, patched areas, and spalls. This same information was also provided in a digital plan view condition map, where the locations of each feature were mapped out.


Yes, umm ... I *am* still working on planet101.
I've also cast aside some code that I've been getting annoyed with for now. Namely planet generation, I still have to sort all that out but frankly it's rather a large chunk of code that can be replaced over and over. So back on the TODO pile it goes.
I've noted also that a couple of months after a friend tweeted about my p101 facebook page, notch announced that he'd like to do something similar. Thankfully he appears to have got stuck into writing a virtual cpu so people can code in the game. I'm not sure this has much to do with a 'space game like elite done correctly'. Still it irks me somewhat. If anything it's got me throwing more of my time and effort into this. Look even a google plus page!
Currently I have vague role playing game code with the ability to build items!
Now how to figure out how to edit them ... a game editor, or perhaps CSV from spreadsheets?


would result in foo continuing to run even when they log out. According to this user, this even worked over SSH connections.
I didn't really believe that, as I was under the impression that in the case of disconnecting from SSH, or terminating the TTY, the shell and therefore its processes would receive a SIGHUP, causing them to terminate. This, under my assumption, was the sole reason for using nohup in such cases, or tmux, screen et al.
This signal is also used to report the termination of the controlling process on a terminal to jobs associated with that session; this termination effectively disconnects all processes in the session from the controlling terminal.
If the process is a session leader that has a controlling terminal, then a SIGHUP signal is sent to each process in the foreground job, and the controlling terminal is disassociated from that session.
So, does this mean jobs put in background will not receive SIGHUP?
The shell exits by default upon receipt of a SIGHUP. Before exiting, an interactive shell resends the SIGHUP to all jobs, running or stopped. Stopped jobs are sent SIGCONT to ensure that they receive the SIGHUP. To prevent the shell from sending the SIGHUP signal to a particular job, it should be removed from the jobs table with the disown builtin (see Job Control Builtins) or marked to not receive SIGHUP using disown -h.
So if you type exit or press Ctrl+D all background process will remain, since this does not send a hang up signal to the Bash.
Not the answer you're looking for? Browse other questions tagged ssh tty signals or ask your own question.
What is the purpose of the controlling terminal?
What happens to a unix session when the session leader exits?
Does SIGHUP get triggered upon broken telnet/SSH connection?
Must SIGKILL (and SIGTERM) be explicitly sent to a specified process?

03:03 am - Toronto no longer liberal stronghold!
The liberal has been decimated in Canada, not only they lost their popular vote, many of their stronghold ridings have gone to other parties. The NDP took many seats, the rest of them were given to the conservatives through bleeding of votes/splitting.
My favorite part is indeed the fact that Ignatieff lost his own seat! Man that was awesome!
The liberals not only ran a terrible campaign they were mostly incompetent about it. I remember driving by the Ignatieff office in Etobicoke, I saw a sorry office, that looked like a garbage dump literally. You would think that was the office of a third tier candidate, not the guy aiming to win the country. Their volunteers looked absolutely dis-interested.
Then comes the stories of turning down volunteers. I know of many incidents that people have volunteered their time to give huge boost to that party and they either never called them back or turned them down. They might not get the importance of certain efforts, or things might be too much for them to process, but this is the reason why you lose elections. Incompetence and placing incompetent people in your campaign. Infighting and placing yourself first in the election makes you lose them. You need to win, you have to put your party first because votes bleed from one riding to another.
Looking at the NDP, they have probably the best party machine in Canada that understands what it needs to mobilize your troops. It truly shows that this party is terrible at managing anything because they could not manage their own candidates or what areas they should target strategically. They just pushed and mobilized their troops, but if it wasn't for Quebec they would not be anywhere where they are today. I don't understand why they are celebrating, they haven't won anything, in fact they lost in a major way, the conservatives now have a majority, and the NDP had more say before with their few seats than now.
Finally looking at the conservatives, they have a lean mean, party machine. The majority of Canadian might not like them, but they have a very intelligent machine that targets specific regions where it matters. They did not earn 40% of the vote but they took riding after riding, by concentrating their efforts where it matters. And they benefited greatly from the NDP rise such that both the liberals and NDP split their vote to leave the conservatives pick up those ridings that would have never become conservatives.... very smart.
As for the bloc? what bloc?
Anyway, the political spectrum in Canada has changed drastically, at least for the next five years.
The liberals have to do some deep thinking otherwise they are no longer a national party.

Easy to See Why U.S. Jobs Move Overseas

Phyllis Schlafly
Why do U.S. companies relocate their plants overseas, thereby abolishing U.S. jobs?
a. They can hire workers at very low wages (such as 30 cents an hour in China.)
b. The companies don't have to pay any employee benefits.
c. They don't have to comply with safety and environmental regulations.
d. They don't have to pay foreign taxes when they export their products back to us.
The correct answer is all of the above. The United States cannot require foreign governments to impose a minimum wage or safety regulations, or pay employee benefits. But the U.S. can and should do something about (d), the huge tax-rebate racket that lures U.S. companies to lay off American workers and set up shop in foreign countries.
Corporations located in the United States pay big U.S. corporate income and property taxes. It does a lot for their bottom line when they move to a foreign, tax-free utopia.
Foreign governments also tax corporations, but if the company exports its products to the United States, or other countries, the foreign government rebates (forgives) the tax. That creates an irresistible magnet to attract U.S. companies to transfer their plants to a land where they can avoid most of both countries' taxes.
It's no wonder that DaimlerChrysler AG will soon start building cars in China to ship back and sell in the United States under Chrysler names such as Dodge and Jeep. This decision means that 11,000 manufacturing jobs and 2,000 white-collar jobs will be eliminated over the next 24 months.
The suburban utility vehicle assembly plant in Newark, Del., will be closed. The Warren, Mich., truck plant and the St. Louis County, Mo., assembly plants will each lose one of two shifts.
The combination of avoiding U.S. corporate taxes and having Chinese taxes rebated (forgiven) will help DaimlerChrysler AG to sell new cars in the United States much cheaper than any it can manufacture in Detroit.
This should be prohibited because it is a huge subsidy, but world trade agreements have peculiarly defined subsidy to exclude tax rebates to exporters by calling it a rebate of the value-added tax. They get by with this subterfuge because that term is not understood by most Americans.
One way the United States is different from nearly all other countries is its system of taxation. The United States imposes taxes on income. We pay taxes on what we earn. Whereas 157 other countries impose taxes on consumption. They pay taxes on what they buy and call them value-added taxes, or VAT. The VAT system not only operates as a bribe to induce U.S. plants to move overseas, but it also operates to prevent U.S. products from being competitively sold in foreign countries. Here is how it works.
When a U.S. product, such as an automobile, arrives at another country's port, the foreign government slaps on a VAT import tax that is a percentage of the price of the U.S. product, the transportation cost to get it to the foreign country, and the tariff that the foreign country charges.
For 40 years, the United States has been signing trade agreements that were supposed to reduce or eliminate tariffs and thereby promote free trade. European countries sanctimoniously proclaim that they are reducing their tariffs, but in fact they replaced their tariffs with a steadily increasing VAT.
In 1968, the average tariff rate collected by European Union countries was 10.4 percent, and the average VAT rate was 13.44 percent, making a trade barrier against U.S. goods of 23.84 percent. By 2006, the average tariff rate declined to 4.4 percent, but the average VAT rate climbed to 19.36 percent, making the trade barrier against U.S. products 23.76 percent.
Foreign countries substituted high VAT rates for high tariff rates, thereby maintaining their border barriers against competition from U.S. goods. The result is that most foreign countries still have de facto tariffs against U.S. goods that are as high or higher than their tariffs of 40 years ago.
Of course, this is flagrantly contrary to the announced goal of free-trade agreements. But don't look for any relief from the World Trade Organization because the WTO consistently rules against the United States.
Foreign governmental use of the VAT has inflicted U.S. industry with monumental costs, increasing every year, and reaching $327 billion in 2006. That's the sum of the VAT rebates paid to companies that ship foreign-made products to the United States, plus the VAT paid by U.S. companies for the privilege of selling their products in foreign countries.
The current system is not the result of the free market or free trade, but the failure of our government to expose and counter the dishonest practices of U.S. trading partners. After 40 years of tolerating this rip-off, it is time for national leaders to demand a new strategy and a level playing field.

Simba Makoni dumped
Mavambo/Kusile/Dawn (MKD) leader Simba Makoni has been dumped by some of his senior officials who described him as a failed politician.
The officials, who have since formed their own party - Democratic Opposition Party (DOP) led by Harry Peter Wilson - said they were left with no option but to form a breakaway party after they realised that Makoni was still somehow attached to his former party Zanu PF.
This, they said was exposed by how the former Finance minister selfishly split votes in the 2008 elections.
"We asked him (Makoni) to convince us that he was not part and parcel of Zanu PF of which he couldn't give us the direction of this and we just left the party because we realised the party was not going to benefit the masses of Zimbabwe," Wilson said,
"It became another small entity of Zanu PF. It became very hard for us to communicate and get things moving. So we broke away and the majority of MKD supporters drove over to us and came
up with this formation," he said.
The Dop president said as individuals who were working with him they realised that Makoni was a selfish leader who was not fit to lead this country.
"As for Makoni, we went in with him when he did not give the mandate to the MDC.
"We continued with him but with that we learnt that being one-sided in politics is not fair because we are here to serve the nation and not make ourselves heroes.
"If he had given the votes to Tsvangirai this country could be in a different situation. In that context, it let Zanu PF - his ex-party - to continue ruling which made it difficult for other parties to move forward. That's why we are in this kind of dilemma we face today."
In 2008, the MDC led by Morgan Tsvangirai won 96 seats and a breakaway MDC faction nine seats, while Zanu PF took 94 seats. One seat was won by an independent.
Wilson, who is the losing candidate for Makokoba constituency, said his party has taken a substantial number of MKD supporters across the country who were disgruntled at the way Makoni was running the party.
However, the Dop leader - who worked with Makoni for years - also indicated that he was going to stand as a presidential candidate this year.

In 1910, the original Académie Sainte-Marie opened because the Quebec-based Bishop Latulipe wanted to open a francophone school to serve students of Northern Ontario in Haileybury.
The convent served as a boarding school and place for religious studies until it burned to the ground on October 4, 1922 during the Great Fire. The Great Fire of 1922 destroyed the convent and nearby church as it swept across southern Temiskaming. It was noted at that time that younger students were sent to nearby Cobalt to take refuge from the fire and the nuns and older students headed to Lake Temiskaming to escape the sparks and flames of the fire.
In 1925 the Sisters decided to rebuild their convent and construction was completed in 1928. In 1957 the convent underwent a major renovation and expansion.
The sisters pointed out that the building had served as a teaching institution, an elementary and secondary school taking in boarders, day students and pupils studying commercial courses.
Its original mission was the education of girls, but over time male students were accepted.
In 1968 the Académie Sainte-Marie lost its private school status when the Ministry of Education introduced a new model of education reform that did not support funding for both a religious and a French-language only school.
That's when the convent became a French Public High School called Ecole secondaire Sainte-Marie, marking the first time the nuns received a salary for teaching.
The school was placed under the jurisdiction of the Timiskaming Board of Education.
In 1969 a lay principal and lay teachers were hired to teach 547 students enrolled at the school.
After a few years it was decided that a new French-language high school should be built in New Liskeard to replace the aging Haileybury school. In 1973 students and staff then moved into what is now called Ecole catholique secondaire Sainte- Marie, located at the end of Hessle Avenue. The exit of the students to the new high school meant the sisters had to reinvent a purpose for the old school.
For a number of years between 1977 and 1995 they say it was used as a spiritual resource centre for the diocese and organizations in Northern Ontario. The academy was renamed Accueil Sainte-Marie.
After a few years the sessions started dwindling and the sisters entertained the possibility of selling the building. Sister Lemire was President of the Corporation responsible for the decision to sell the building.
Sister Lemire said she met with Century 21 realtor Eveline Gauvreau to go over ideas on how to sell the convent.
At that time it was suggested the Town of Haileybury purchase the building but the municipality could not come up with a successful plan for the building. "A bid by the Northdale Manor Board was also considered and that didn't pan out," said Sister Lemire.
Fast forward to 2004 when Skyline Inc. came up with an offer of purchase. "They had been looking at the building, asking questions and showed lots of interest," said Sister Lemire. She said on September 30, 2005 the final sale went through and Skyline Inc. became the new owners of the convent.
The last fourteen sisters left at the convent had to pack over 80 years of furniture, books, bedding, desk, chairs etc. They held a huge yard sale and with the help of several volunteers they managed to sell off the contents of the building. "It was a bittersweet day for us when we eventually had to leave the building but we are pleased with how it has been transformed," said Sisters Lemire and Tremblay.
With just the slightest hint of sadness in her eyes she said, "It was the end of an era for us…for you the beginning of one."
Both nuns are now enjoying their retirement years, but said they are very pleased with the way their convent has been renovated to fit modern-day lifestyles.


Blogger Nation: Obama Raises A Whopping $42 Million in Third Quarter, Laughs all the Way to the Bank.
Obama Raises A Whopping $42 Million in Third Quarter, Laughs all the Way to the Bank.
Surpassing the expectations by members of his own party, the Obama re-election campaign raised $42.8 million in the period running from July through the end of September, an Obama campaign aide told CNN. The campaign announced publicly Thursday that along with the Democratic National Committee it brought in more than $70 million in the third quarter of fundraising.
Some Democratic sources had said they expected the combined total to be around $55 million.
The $42 million figure likely will be close to, or exceed the total raised by all of the Republican presidential candidates together for this quarter.
Campaigns have to report their amounts to the Federal Election Commission by Saturday. The Obama campaign and the DNC raised a record breaking $86 million in the last fundraising quarter that ended in June.
During the most recent quarter the Obama team had to deal with questions about whether key constituencies of the Democratic party base were fully supportive of President Obama, especially after a nasty confrontation over raising the nation's debt ceiling which resulted in an agreement that upset many in the progressive movement. The unstable economy has made it more difficult for all of the campaigns to raise funds during this time.
The president has had to cancel several fundraising events to stay in Washington due to the debt ceiling fight. Obama unveiled his jobs proposal last month and displayed an aggressive stance toward congressional Republicans - moves that were applauded by many Democratic activists.
From July to September the Obama team reported that 606,000 people donated to the campaign - more than in the second fundraising quarter between April and June when it set a record for the number of donors. And it said of the 766,000 donations, 98% were $250 or less – a key figure as it tries to keep attracting the small donors who were a major driver for the 2008 campaign. One of the ways the campaign tried to woo small donors was to sponsor a contest with the prize being a dinner with Obama.
Overall, the campaign said since the president announced his re-election bid this spring, almost 983,000 individuals made donations, with 258,000 of them making their first contribution.
Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney raised $14.16 million in the 3rd quarter, and has $14.65 million on hand, according to financial numbers released today by the former Massachusetts governor's presidential campaign. Overall, Romney has raised a total of $32 million for the GOP presidential primary.
The total represents only primary contributions as the campaign did not raise general election funds, the campaign emphasizes. By comparison in 2007, Romney collected $10 million for the third quarter reporting period. Texas governor and GOP rival for the nomination Rick Perry raised $17 million in the same quarter-- his first full fundraising period as a presidential candidate. "Seems like they spend a lot of money and have little to show for it," tweaked Mark Miner, a Perry spokesman.

It's such a artistic concept that catches the viewers without warning and teaches them to by no means skip the present's introduction.

2 The Generational Facet Of The Storytelling
It's really a considerably widespread method in some shonen sequence to introduce the unique protagonist's kids and permit the narrative to cross the torch over to the following technology, whether or not it's in Dragon Ball, Naruto, and even InuYasha. What makes JoJo's Weird Journey distinct on this space is that it pulls the set off on its generational storytelling very early within the sequence relatively than ready a whole bunch of episodes like different shonen tales. Moreover, JoJo navigates by way of the whole Joestar family lineage and hits as many branches of the household tree as potential, relatively than only one son.
1 Its Heavy Use Of American Music
It's not quite common, however there are a small part of anime that make use of American music, both for title sequences or to punctuate some highly effective second throughout the sequence. Accordingly, this technique isn't solely employed by JoJo's Weird Journey, however the sequence has indulged on this capability way over some other anime. Every of JoJo's ending theme songs make use of acceptable American music, resembling "Stroll Like An Egyptian" by the Bangles, "Roundabout" by Sure, "I Need You" by Savage Backyard, and even "Freek'n You" by Jodeci. It provides such persona to the sequence.

I went off the radar for well over three months! Well, starting a new job and a new life can be quite hectic and absorbing.

Suffice it to say that I've now fully settled down and can resume my blogging!
The last couple of months have been a roller-coaster ride in Zimbabwean politics. We've gone full swing - from an all-out jambanja campaign, a dramatic withdrawal by the MDC from the presidential run-off election, to a sudden thawing of relations and an imminent rapproachement between Mugabe and Tsvangirai over a power-sharing deal mediated by Thabo Mbeki!

Teapot Trust is so delighted to have been chosen as one of the four charitable beneficiaries of the First Minister, Nicola Sturgeon's Christmas card this year.
The Teapot Trust is a Scottish charity providing professional art therapy and creative interventions for chronically ill children and young people in hospitals and hospices across the UK. Our work aims to build resilience in children with chronic illness by encouraging them to express emotions, mentally overcome the challenges linked to their condition and develop healthy coping mechanisms. Participating in art therapy can contribute to positive mental health, provide peer interaction and a sense of community within the hospital environment and introduce new skills, providing opportunities to be viewed as an individual rather than as patient.
Since 2007, artwork from the First Minister's official Christmas cards has raised around £170,000 for good causes through the sales of original paintings and limited edition prints. As Teapot Trust receive no funding from the NHS or the Government, generous donations such as this help us ensure we can continue providing our much needed services.
