More 2D in KDE
27 comments:
In my case, and I'm sure that I'm not a special one, raster gave to me more than a few frames, for example applications like kpressenter, amarok, or even dolphin are quite non-usable without raster. Another example is konversation, if you switch quickly around channels without raster, the application feels lagged :/
Imho, if you can fix the memory issue with raster, we should move to it. The network issue could be fixed easily by the startup process.

Gosh - the more I read about it, the more hopeless Qt4 performance seems. Between gobbling up and hanging onto MBs of memory per window for double-buffering that Qt3 didn't use (even for windows that have not had their contents changed for ages or which are invisible) and using more and more network-unfriendly strategies (raster, alien widgets) in an attempt to get some kind of usable speed ... well, it just seems like an out-of-control mess :(
I remember TrollTech claiming that they had benchmarks that showed that Qt4 was "faster and lighter" than Qt3 - I can't imagine what kind of unrealistic scenarios these benchmarks tested.

I don't agree. I think users should have possibility to choose (it's what i like of free sw).
So, i won't ask you to make raster as default but only to give the possibility to users they know what they are doing (or they don't know it but they just want to do it, just like me) to use it.
It's not only a performance issue: i have to use raster at least in applications such as konsole or yakuake because with X11 i've an annoying bug with font rendering.
I already change .desktop files (bash helps me to do this) but i have to change them again every update and above all it seems applications restored from previous sessions doesn't automatically start with raster (and i don't know why).

ok, so a simple question. How can we improve the current situation? What would be the best path to follow to get better performance? because it really could be better, to be honest, it's not bad, really not, but it's not very good either, just good enough that i don't get annoyed when using it (which is a bad thing, if it would be bader, more people would look into fixing it)

About the "networking" problem: there aren't modern solutions for that? FreeNX and co. don't alleviate the problem?

X11 is fast enough? Ever used the plasma dashboard? Its horribly slow... Its much better with raster tho

@anonymous (2nd comment): Well, if Qt was such a mess as you say, wouldn't KDE work just as horrible on other platforms than linux/X11? It doesn't, it works just fine on windows - so it's clearly X11 which is at fault.

What about the GL engine? Will it not cause problems for people using KDE over the network? How will that work?
- August 15, 2009 at 2:29 AM
The X11 font rendering can be REALLY slow in various situations.
For me (with nvidia drivers) Konsole is "almost" unusable slow with the X11 graphics engine.
Where as the raster engine is lightning fast. And Konsole is just about font rendering.
So, X11 for font rendering is also a big bottleneck. At least for me.
I hope that the OpenGL gets better soon. Ditching X11 for local session would really be a *HUGE* win!

I have a KDE4 desktop that I access using RDP, and it is pretty much unusable using either X11 or raster due to the amount of screen updates. I guess you are talking about people who use it with X directly.
- August 15, 2009 at 7:34 AM
How about copying the code for those fast software rendering operations into Xorg to make the X11 performance better?
- August 15, 2009 at 7:44 AM
For me many programs are not usable without raster too. It would be nice to configure without changing some source code to make all programs use raster. If that is not possible, perhaps distributions could ship two different builds of qt4 to choose from.
- August 15, 2009 at 8:21 AM
Thanks for outlining the network issues. When I read your last post it made me understand the basic issues here.
The network use case is very important for me. I run an LTSP network, and will continue to do so. KDE 3.5 flew and rendered smoothly and well. Happy clients.
I finally upgraded and am supporting KDE4 and KDE3 on LTSP. KDE4's performance is clearly suffering due to sending pixmaps over the wire all the time. Of course changing widgets and windowing system to Plastik helps hugely. (But pretty is a feature really is important). One example of poor performance is clicking to activate the Kickoff menu incurs a 4-5 second delay. The classic menu takes a fraction of a second.
Of course Qt4 brings wonderful cross platform support and that is not to be sniffed at, but the 2D acceleration on Linux really is important to me as well, especially over the network.
Perhaps this should become a performance metric for KDE4? It we can get very efficient 2D acceleration over X then we will have a snappy desktop. Perhaps OpenGL will help.
I tried running some apps like kate and Kontact with opengl rendering (locally) and they worked but with some major artifact problems to do with bad clipping (although the icons and menu vanished altogether). Perhaps opengl 2d development that way will bring a quicker long term solution.
Thanks for bringing this up. I had been wondering why my perception of poor graphics performance in KDE4 (first local and now seen over the network) was so at odds with the statements of "QT4 is faster, and uses less memory" I kept reading from the devs.

Rapid fire responses:
@Anonymous 1st: yes, that very well might be an option. It's essentially a question of whether we can combine engines like that, what's the hit in terms of network traffic and the average speedup. So it comes down to a few decent benchmarks. I'll try to write a blog about benchmarking this all later.
@Anonymous 2nd: Qt4 is faster than Qt3. You're simply comparing apples and oranges. You're comparing anti-aliased, gradient using, path rendering api to a non-anti-aliased draw line or pixmap api. If you use Qt4 with the same feature set as Qt3, Qt4 will be a lot faster.
@luca: You're just completely and utterly wrong. Especially bringing up the freedom of choice in Free Software is pathetic. First of all choice is only meaningful if you have enough knowledge to pick the one right for you. The fact that you don't even realize that it is an option already, means that you're not even close to possessing the basic knowledge required to make that decision. And my whole point is that it would be silly for me to openly state how to do something that is wrong. Which you with your response there clearly proved.
@BeatWolf: The answer to your question is a lot like the one to Anonymous 1st, I'll write a bit about that soon.
@Rasi: Using it right now. Works great. (aka. that was a useless setup specific statement)
@Gustavo Noronha: OpenGL has a network protocol. GLX.
@Chaz6: Yes, when I said X/KDE, I meant X/KDE not RDP/KDE. Those word thingies tend to be pretty crucial when it comes to understanding someone ;)
@Anonymous 4th: Look at my last blog to read about the biggest bottleneck when it comes to graphics on the cpu.
@Kevin Colyer: I think this is largely another reason we need a good performance benchmarking suite for Qt graphics. It would drastically improve the situation all over the place. As I just wrote in responses to Anonymous 1st and BeatWolf I'll try to write/clarify what we need there in a lot more detail later.

I was talking about qtconfig-qt4, and at least for this application (with the boring but fast windows/redmond) theme, the X11 commands QT generates are horrible.
Its mixing Render and core-X11-drawing all the time, does a lot of state management (almost 50% of the requests are ChangeGC), does small XPutImage calls which stall the whole graphics pipeline and calls e.g. PolySegment/Line which causes large software fallbacks on all modern X drivers.
From my pov there simply wasn't done a lot of optimization/profiling when that QT backend was written.

If I compare QT4 with a fancy theme and QT4 with the boring windows/redmong theme (which doesn't use gradients or antialiasing at all, and consists basically only of solid fills) - the QT3 window resizes way faster then the QT4 one.
OpenGL or XRender, I don't care at all. At least on my hardware (i945GM+latest UXA drivers, GeForce6600 proprietary driver, RadeonHD 3850 (radeon driver) - QT4 apps *feel* slower than QT3 apps, and KDE4 *feels* slower than KDE3.
Thats why I am using the redmond theme, because Plastik (which I prefer) or Oxygen are pain.

Nice to have a nice sum up from insiders.
I have a question, as people say that they experience graphical issues using the opengl backend for QT, is it the cas with proprietary stack instead of mesa ?
How does QT performs, when paired with fglrx or nvidia drivers ?
Because even though one would really prefer the whole open stack, saying that we better go for opengl in general largely largely implies a good support from the driver vendors. And unfortunately, not all vendors behave the same regarding the mesa.
How does those driver version impact QT development ?

@linuxhippy: "Its mixing Render and core-X11-drawing all the time" I'm not sure why you think that's a problem. The obvious reason for why it does what it does is because drawing a line is faster than drawing a path (e.g. tessellate a very thin polygon and render that). So what you're complaining "mixing of core and Xrender" and "draw line" were done exactly because of the fallacy of your third statement - they were done because benchmarks showed to make an insane performance difference.
There was number of blogs on labs.trolltech.com that explained window resizing behavior.
And honestly whenever someone says "it feels slower/faster" I don't know whether to cry or laugh. Without a benchmark with numbers to back it up and a profile I can look at all I can do is pretend like I care and interject with "I'm not seeing that" resulting in a stalemate.
I think this entire discussion is basically a result of our failure to prepare a decent real world benchmarking suite. I'll sit down tomorrow and write about that a bit.
@lucky: The proprietary OpenGL drivers from NVIDIA and AMD are in general of a bit higher quality (especially NVIDIA) than our open drivers right now so Qt on OpenGL works better on them right now. It's simply about the quality of the OpenGL implementation, not its origins.
- August 16, 2009 at 5:58 PM
Sure having a proper benchmark suite would certainly iron out those "communication failures".
Anyway, I was really interested in those threads since we had an argument on ubuntu-fr regarding the good/bad X performances.
I'm sure lot's of people would be keen on testing and reporting breakages on their stack, if they were provided with a nice set of tests to run.
As you said the sooner everybody will be using opengl, the sooner those discussions will just vanish.

Sorry for spamming your blog that much. Its just I feel really inspired by the topic :)
1. Yes a good benchmark would really help. It would be great if it would have at least some compatibility with QT3, to be able to compare e.g. the window resizing issue.
2. Yes, rendering many lines with PolySgments is fast. Rendering only a few lines line on a surface with PolySegments causes a horrible slow fallback if the destination surface is currently in VRAM.
A lot has happend since XAA ;)
Furthermore mixing XRender and X11-core almost doubles the state-manegement related X-requests.
At least for my XRender-Java2d backend, I got way better performance when rasterizing lines with bresenham and sending down the small rectangles, except for huge amounts of lines rendered in a batch. I plan to improve performance in future with batching and some threshold to decide when to fall back to PolySegments.

I'm the developer of the Gambas language, and I just want to share my experience with Qt3 & Qt4.
Gambas GUI uses the Qt library through an intermediate layer that makes it independent of the toolkit. But that's not the point there.
When I ported the Qt GUI component from Qt3 to Qt4, the Gambas IDE, that is written in Gambas, became slow and unusable (NVidia GeForce 8300GS / Core2 Duo @2.33GhZ / Mandriva 2009.0 or 2009.1).
This was with older versions of Qt4.
The GUI became usable with Qt 4.5 only, but it is obviously slower than Qt 3 in drawing widgets.
Note that the performance improvement in Qt 4.5 are huge, as the speed difference is not too important.
I think that comparison is interesting, as I am using exactly the same code and logic. Just that Qt4 is used instead of Qt3.
I played with all the flags I could find (raster engine, disabling double-buffering...), and I went to the following conclusions:
- Double-buffering slows widget redrawing a lot. Disabling it makes Gambas IDE/Qt4 almost as fast as Gambas IDE/Qt3.
- Disabling double-buffering makes Qt4 flicker more than Qt3. So Qt4 seems to draw more things than Qt3, but I may be wrong, as Qt3 does some double-buffering in some widgets.
- Using raster engine makes things faster, but some routines are buggy. For example blending an Image on another Image with a QPainter. But I have to investigate to understand what happened exactly.
- It seems that there is a bad interaction between XRender and NVidia too, because Plasma is slow as hell when resizing or moving things, unless I run it with the raster engine. But then I have sometimes drawing bugs or artifacts with some Plasma themes.
- Sometimes Qt4 forgets to redraw a rectangle, either in KDE apps or in Gambas. So I think there is a bug somewhere in the double-buffering. Alas I can't say more as it happens randomly and rarely.
- QT4 keeps being faster than GTK+ in every GUI aspect I could try. (Gambas has a GTK+ component too). But I think this is because GTK+ calls dozen of imbricated functions to do the simplest things all the time.
I think that Qt4 should disable double-buffering automatically when running through the network (if it is possible to check that). And I don't see why it should flicker so much then - It should not flicker more than Qt3, shouldn't it?

When it comes down to how responsive QT feels/is, QT3 beats QT4.
And after all, the only thing that matters for a user-interface is how it feels.
With QT3 windows re-size without any lag, everything is snappy and reacts immediatly.
Even on my really fast desktop hardware with latest intel drivers (and also on an older machne with a geforce 6800 and the proprietary driver) everything fells slower.
I already got used to, but booted into an older distribution based on KDE 3.5 and I was suprised how much better everything felt.
What I miss are benchmarks, that benchmark what a human would notice.
And no, it is not the backends fault - i tried raster, x11 and opengl, all are slow.

Does OpenGL rendering work over the network, or is it a local solution only?
I'm using KDE4.3, and xrdp so that I can access my workstation from home (the rdp protocol is the only one allowed through the company SSL-VPN), and the rendering looks absolutely horrid. Try it out (apt-get both software packages) and avert your eyes in horror.
I'm probably being forced to switch to something else anyway because the screensaver doesn't work and a workstation that won't lock itself after 15 minutes is seen as a security risk, but nonetheless annoying that I can't use KDE at work because rendering breaks when used over the network :-/.

Zack. I'm revisiting this thread because I want you to see this pic. This is a common desktop. Amarok. A Plasmoid CPU meter. Screwed systray icons (Original systray spec) along correctly rendered ones (New systray spec). This pic hasn't anything special... until you realize that I ran:
$ plasma-desktop --graphicssystem opengl &
$ amarok --graphicssystem opengl
This is the current status of Qt Open GL. It can be slower than X11, but it idles at 0% CPU (as you can see in the plasmoid). It totally screws up rendering for systray icons, as long as they are made with the OLD spec. But IT WORKS. And I'm writing this in $ konqueror --graphicssystem opengl.
This definitely needs more testing, but this is the future. Will we see in Qt 4.6 some improvement here?

@MrsCode: and my favorite color is blue. aka. as I said many, many times, "perception" of what is faster is utterly useless, if you have a benchmark we can address it, otherwise I don't believe you.
@Anonymous: yes, it's GLX.
@Alejandro Nova: well yes, obviously the GL paint engine is being worked on a daily basis. Also note that bugs should really be reported to Qt software, not me.
- September 23, 2009 at 8:58 PM
Interesting when we show a benchmark we are told "we will address it".
This is me in regard to polyline drawing performance...
Qt - 78 Milliseconds not antialiased
Qt - 10000 Milliseconds antialiased
Surely that delta is way off the scale?
This is Nokia :(

@info, the line joins mean that the stroked polyline needs to be rendered as a whole, instead of rendering each line individually. Which in the case of a 1000-element polyline results in an outline path of 4000 elements, which then needs to be rasterized. Now, we use the Freetype rasterizer to do antialiased rasterizing, which is optimized for text rasterizing and performs best on paths without too many self-intersections. In this case the Freetype rasterizer is the bottleneck, spending 99 % of the run-time on generating spans to be blended. When disabling antialiasing we get ~60 ms per frame instead of ~10000 ms. It seems that the algorithmic complexity of antialiased rasterizing of paths is O(n^2) for complex paths with the Freetype rasterizer.
To solve this we could either replace the rasterizer, which is a pretty big job, or special case rendering of polylines with opaque pens when the pen width is small to render each line individually. The latter might lead to a slight degradation in quality at the line joins or at line intersections however. We've been reluctant to do this so far since the work-around is very simple, to use drawLines instead of drawPolyline, explicitly saying to Qt that you want the lines to be rendered individually.
In other words if Zack was still at
Trolltech he would have addressed this.

Hi, you mentioned that with the raster engine a lot more memory would be required as a result of every application caching the glyphs for all the fonts they're using.
I wonder if this is also stands true for Qt on Windows, since it uses the raster engine? Moreover why Qt/Windows doesn't use GDI instead of raster?

(Wait for You #3)
Publication Date: February 9, 2016
Hardcover, 448 pages, William Morrow
Genres: NA, Romance, Contemporary
At 21, Calla hasn't done a lot of things. She's never been kissed, never seen the ocean, never gone to an amusement park. But growing up, she witnessed some things no child ever should. She still carries the physical and emotional scars of living with a strung-out mother, Mona—secrets she keeps from everyone, including her close circle of college friends.
But the safe cocoon Calla has carefully built is shattered when she discovers her mom has stolen her college money and run up a huge credit card debt in her name. Now, Calla has to go back to the small town she thought she'd left behind and clean up her mom's mess again. Of course, when she arrives at her mother's bar, Mona is nowhere to be found. Instead, six feet of hotness named Jackson James is pouring drinks and keeping the place humming.
Sexy and intense, Jax is in Calla's business from the moment they meet, giving her a job and helping her search for Mona. And the way he looks at her makes it clear he wants to get horizontal . . . and maybe something more. Before Calla can let him get close, though, she's got to deal with the pain of the past—and some very bad guys out to mess her up if she doesn't give them her mom.
My Review
Jennifer L. Armentrout's love stories are pure crack cocaine. Once you have a little, you just can't stop. I finally picked up this third book in the Wait for You series, and, after finishing it, I immediately read the fifth and sixth books. Yep. JLA's just that good.
Okay, so I have to admit that I wasn't thrilled about the plot of this book at first. I've just read a lot of the-emotionally-and-physically-scarred-young-woman-gets-saved-by-the-male-hero stories. The heroine is always shy and reserved, and the male always claims that she's beautiful, which is eventually what makes the young woman think that she is beautiful. I just don't like how the guy has to make the girl feel good about herself.
However much I don't like those cliché storylines, JLA manages to make the characters so realistic that you simply can't help but root for the two protagonists to get their happily ever after. Of course, Calla and Jax have their fair share of obstacles to overcome before they can even think about getting there though. Calla is, as I mentioned, a scarred mess with a sucky mother, while Jax is keeping his own fair share of secrets. After all, what kind of romance is it without one character keeping important information from the other? (Note to all book/TV/movie characters out there: Communication is key.)
All in all, this book is a touching story about first true loves and overcoming emotional pasts. And yes, it may have some familiar tropes, but those tropes don't take away from how invested you'll get into the characters and their crazy lives. Definitely read this if you want a solid new adult romance, because I know those are often hard to come by sometimes…
*Note: I borrowed a copy of this book from my library. This in no way affected my opinion/review.

Bradley Barton Mural Workshop
September 17, 2017
Bradley Barton has enjoyed considerable support over the years from major THF-supported projects and this year, the school used the charity's funding to bring in artist Lucy Jackson to work with the children to create a large-scale mural that reflects the schools' values.
Incorporating designs from the children themselves, groups of youngsters took turns to paint and decorate the large panel that will be hung on an outside wall near the school's reception area. Really enjoyable whole-school event!

Mapping urban noise levels using smartphones
The Sony Lab in Paris recently released a free smartphone app called NoiseTube which uses your smartphone's microphone and GPS to measure noise levels as you walk around. This data is combined with data collected from other users in order to plot the current noise levels on a city map, a technique dubbed "participatory sensing". Anyone can sign up to download the application and contribute data. I doubt it will really take off, but either way it's an interesting concept that makes very clever use of crowdsourcing and repurposing of existing technology. The goal is to meet EU requirements of member countries to periodically measure noise pollution levels, but the website is open to users from any country. Currently you can view noise data for individual users (making your data public is optional) and you can download Google Earth KML data for various cities, but I'd love to see someone create a Google Maps mashup of this!

At CISPA, we work from the premise that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
The humanistic and holistic view of human beings is the starting point of our teaching.
Our most important didactic aim is self-reflection, – being able to understand and accept your own multifaceted nature and the innate otherness of our fellow human beings. Through this process of achieving more profound consciousness, the student enables him-/herself to act freely and unconventionally, based on his/her individual values, life view and natural creativity.
Body, mind and spirit are a whole, which we develop through theoretical insight and practical application, aided by a common terminology across the disciplines. All classes are based on a methodological approach, the aim of which is to empower the student to put specific acting techniques to artistic practice. Ultimately, the performer consciously utilises him-/herself as an artistic instrument, leaving the methodological technique to become an invisible support for human nature and our inherent creative force to flourish.

The last time the Devils lost eight in a row, Uli Hiemer (28) was part of their defense corps.
(Mark Abraham/The Star-Ledger)
The Devils are hoping to end two losing streaks when they face the Boston Bruins Wednesday night at Prudential Center.
First, they are looking to beat the Bruins for the first time this season after going 0-2-1. They have lost seven in a row to the Bruins (0-5-2) since last winning on the final day of the 2010-11 season—3-2 at Prudential Center.
They also attempting to avoid their first eight-game losing streak since Dec. 19, 1985, to Jan, 6, 1986. All seven losses were in regulation time.
The current skid is 0-3-4.
"We need a win. We need one win. Whether that changes everything and we win 10 in a row, I don't know," coach Pete DeBoer said. "The worst thing we can do right now is individually try and fix what's wrong.
"I think there is a genuine belief in the room when they drop the puck that we can win every night. That belief has been there all season despite the fact it hasn't translated into enough wins. That belief has been there all along and it's still there."
The Devils have nine games left.

Backup goalie Johan Hedberg was hurt when teammates ran into him and dislodged the net during practice.
After a brief visit on the ice from trainer Rich Stinziano, Hedberg continued.
"Some of the boys ran into the net and it hit me in the back," Hedberg said. "I got a little shaken up. No worries."

A distinctive feature of your approach to retirement ministry?
It's a series of downsizing. Letting go of your job. Selling your home for an apartment. Seeing the deaths of loved ones.
That sounds like retirement can be a sad time.
It can be, but you can also move into a warm community like this. They love to reminisce, but not they're living in the past. They go to concerts and theater, and they do community service. Changing of the years might be a better metaphor.
If you couldn't be a minister, what would you be?
In the FBI. I was once interested in law enforcement, I guess because of the idea of helping people.
What do you do to relax?
I enjoy swimming, tennis and boating on the Indian River. We have a timeshare in Sebastian, and it comes with a boat. And I love playing grandfather to my 13 grandchildren.
Favorite pastime?
I'm still active in ham radio. During that spate of hurricanes, when cell phones weren't working, it was great in helping to link people.
Do you have a hero?
My great-great-great-great grandfather, Robert Hamill Nassau, was a missionary to Africa. He founded Lambarini, where Albert Schweitzer later came. He mastered seven languages and dialogues of the people of Gabon. He was an authority on tropical fever. He was an abolitionist, working on the other side of the Atlantic. His 145 volumes of journals are in the Princeton library.
Do you have a treasured possession?
My grandfather's early-model Martin guitar, serial letter E. It's lovely rosewood with mother-of-pearl inlay and a stripe up the back. I brought it to Westminster College and organized a group called the Westminstrels. I use it now in working with Alzheimer's patients. It's amazing, their response to music.
What do you wish people understood about you?
Some people still think ministers are super-saints. Last summer at McDonald's, one of the kids at Coral Ridge came from Sunday school. He blurted out, "It's Rev. Ron! Look! He eats! He eats!"
When things get you down, how do you reconnect with the spirit?
Psalms, hymns, spiritual songs. The other day I was in my office after someone had passed away. I just picked up my guitar and started singing praise songs. It revived me again.
Motto, or favorite scripture verse?
Something my high school English teacher wrote on the chalkboard: "The things that happened to me were in order that things might happen in me, so that greater things might happen through me."

Jordan Hewson, the 27-year-old daughter of U2's Bono, is a social activist, but more recently, she's revealed herself to be a first-time tech entrepreneur.
Based in Brooklyn, New York, you'll likely only find that she's described as "Bono's daughter" when her name is searched. Raised by the international rock star who has successfully launched numerous nonprofit organizations, Hewson is breaking away from Bono's shadow with the development of her non-profit, Speakable, which is a tech company that promotes social activism. However, she didn't look to her father for help when developing her company. She stated that he was a good resource, but she would like to keep a distance between him and her company.
Hewson, a self-described introvert, stands apart from her very public father who a musical frontman and the face of the fight against AIDS. Though she's more reserved than her father, she poised to make a splash, particularly as she's quietly raised $2 million to fund the growth of the company she's founded.
The first product the company, Speakable will publicly unveil is an interactive "action button," which publishers will be able to tack onto the end of articles, prompting readers to respond to a call to action, whether that means they'll need to tweet at a policy-maker, sign a petition, take a poll, or donate to a non-profit. Social activism becomes more accessible and seamless with this new development. So if a reader reads an article about deportation, the refugee crisis, or another humanitarian issue, then the readily available button will make it so that users can donate or communicate without leaving the page. Braintree, a subsidiary of Paypal, will be the company's processor, accepting monetary donations.
Already Speakable has partnered with 30 charity organizations, including Planned Parenthood, Amnesty International, and ONE. The partnered organizations develop pertinent polls, petitions, and tweets, and these items are paired with new articles by Speakable, which uses a matching algorithm. As a part of its beta test, the button has appeared at the conclusion of Huffington Post articles. The launch, which took place October 13th, began with a partnership with two publishers, Guardian U.S. and Vice Impact.
Speakable doesn't gain proceeds from reader donations, and according to Hewson, the company isn't focused on monetization right now. Likely, the company won't test revenue models until 2017. With that said, if the company scales up enough, they'll be able to gain terrific insight about reading habits, as well as article engagement with the use of the action button. This could be valuable to publishers, marketers, and advertisers.
It's speculated that editorial control may be an issue, with regards to bias. Speakable will pair content to the relevant action buttons, but editors will likely approve the match before it appears online. By adding an action button to a particular news piece, the story, and the content to become a vehicle for donating to a certain cause, perhaps with a particular agenda.
Currently, the action button is placed just below the article, which may allude many readers, as many don't make it to the end of a news story. According to reports, average readers spend less than 15 seconds a page before they divert their attention. Hewson recognizes that Speakable is still a work in progress, and it will change as new relationships develop with publishers.
Hewson has taken on veterans and season professionals to help guide her. Huffington Post co-founder Arianna Huffington is an adviser and Uber co-founder Oscar Salazar are attached and they're a member of the board of directors. Bono isn't an official part of the company.
"Obviously, I grew up with a lot of opportunity and connections, but ultimately, that will only get you in the door once with a person," Hewson said, according to Fortune. "That's never going to influence how successful our product is and whether people want to use it."

We use numerical calculations to examine the relation between adaptive optics (AO) turbulence compensation and power coupled through a spectrometer slit for both laser and natural guide-star AO systems. The AO system and observing parameters used are relevant to the Gemini-North 8-m telescope. For this study, we separate residual tilt from residual higher-order aberrations to isolate their relative effects under a variety of operating conditions. Our results demonstrate that slit-coupled intensity is not uniquely determined by system Strehl alone; we show that this is due to the differing effects of higher-order and tilt aberrations on the shape of the compensated point-spread function. For the Gemini spectrometer and AO system, the wider point-spread function halo associated with an added residual higher-order aberration reduces slit-coupled intensity more rapidly than a broad point-spread function core induced by residual tilt.

Report N2 (added on March, 26, 2010)
This woman contacted me in february 2010 and really fooled me with her story. She was very trustworthy and wrote about her family, friends and the company she worked for. What first made me suspicious was that sometimes she wrote good english and then the next mail could be in a very bad english. Luckily I never sent her money and it made me sad to find her picture here...

Report N3 (added on May, 27, 2010)
She contacted me on a Swedish dating site at first. Started to have some quite long conversations and some of it where written only for me but most of it were copy/paste text. She didn't claim any money until after like 7 letters. Then I got suspicious and saw through all lies.
Her phone was broken.
Parents were doctors and engineer.
She got impatient when I told her I could help her with a ticket to Sweden.
She needed cash to get a ticket because she claimed that it was necessary that she payed it with her own money.
All emails come from:
X-Mailer: The Bat! (v188.8.131.52) Professional
Received: from PC-7970D6175639
She uses some kind of proxy and always sending emails from different hosts.

Gingrich to House GOP: Give In on Payroll Tax
DES MOINES, Iowa – Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who famously lost budget battles to President Bill Clinton amid two government shutdowns, had some advice to House Republicans at loggerheads with another Democratic president: Give in.
"Incumbent presidents have enormous advantages. And I think what Republicans ought to do is what's right for America. They ought to do it calmly and pleasantly and happily," Mr. Gingrich said when asked about the clash between President Barack Obama and House Republicans over extension of the payroll tax cut.
Mr. Gingrich made it clear he favored a one-year extension of the two-percentage point payroll tax cut, which expires Jan. 1, not the two-month extension that passed the Senate with bipartisan support. He called the Senate bill "an absurd dereliction of duty."
"Obama is so inept as a president, and the Congress is so dysfunctional as an institution, that we are lurching from failure to failure to failure," Mr. Gingrich said.

LattePanda 2G32GB

Does any one have any experience of the LattePandas and FOG.
They do not pxe boot, but they can image fine with CloneZilla.
Iv tried to get them to restore from an image on one of my storage nodes, but theres no restore option so i guess it doesn't like the image format.
I have changed the image to PartClone and PartImage, uncompressed and compressed. But neither seem to work.
When i upload the LattePanda image with CloneZilla to my storage node manually i get a load of partition files in the directory.
Any advice is welcome.
Once you have that FOS USB boot drive created I want you to do the following things BEFORE you attempt to image.
- USB Boot from this FOS boot drive
- Pick option 6 (Debug)
- Watch to see if the FOS Linux boots correctly.
- If everything goes well, after a few enter key presses you should be dropped to a linux command prompt.
- At the FOS linux command prompt key in
lsblkmake sure you can see the disks. Please post a picture here in the forum of the disk layout.
- At the FOS linux command prompt key in
ip addr showmake sure eth0 has the proper IP address for your subnet.
If 5 and 6 pass then proceed to 7.
- Schedule a capture/deployment task in the FOG Web ui.
- USB boot the target computer, this time pick option 1 in the grub menu.
The target computer should image just fine. Report any error back in this thread.
@Duncan In regards to FOS usb I have a tutorial on that here: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/7727/building-usb-booting-fos-image
Make sure you read about the caveats and don't forget to update the grub config file.
Lastly look at the forum chat bubble in the upper right corner of this page for additional hints.

@george1421 said in LattePanda 2G32GB:
FOS usb boot disk
I have around 25 of the these devices that i use as ThinPcs for Vmware.
To save imaging them one by one i would like to use FOG and a image i already have for other ThinPCs.
The lattepanda does not support PXE as far i can see.
Im going to investigate the FOS you mentioned.
@Duncan said in LattePanda 2G32GB:
Never heard of them. But if they are ia32/64 compliant then you might be able to get fog to work. If you can get clonezilla to work then there is a better chance with FOG.
So let me understand your initial reason why you can't use FOG is that these devices don't support pxe booting? If that is the case then we can create a FOS usb boot disk assuming that these devices can boot from a usb stick.

You are going to want to stock up on everything to warm you up from head to toe!
Embrace the cold with these adorable styles of hats. Winter is the best time to break out the beanie. I love a good beanie with a fun pom pom on top. Choose a pattern to give your solid coats some pizzazz!

Keeping the neck and chest warm are as equally important as the head! Never underestimate the warming power of a good scarf! We are all about warm cozy knitted scarves in fun bright colors! Choose from a bright solid cable knit or a soft infinity.

A cozy sweatshirt is a must when it comes to bundling up for the cold. This "Oh What Fun" sweatshirt is the perfect layering piece for all of you winter fun!

We cannot forget the frosty toes! There is nothing more miserable than having cold feet. A soft pair of oh so warm slippers are what every aching pair of feet need. These slippers are the best style of slippers because they won't easily fall off and are completely fuss free.

Sapam Shrine is a compact little shrine located right on the roadside on Thepkasattri Road in the Sapam Village area. It is the result of the strong faith of the Chinese migrant community from Fujian, China who settled in this part of the island for more than 200 years.
At first they were coolies in tin mines but later on became fishermen and farmers as well as starting their own small businesses selling all kind of things. No matter what line of work they did, one thing they had in common was they all believed that Taoist gods would help them to start new lives and protect them from negative influences in their adopted country.
Sapam Shrine devoted to Guan Yu, once a general in the Eastern Han Dynasty. His name is mentioned many times in the famous Chinese historical novel 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms'. He is known as a symbol of righteousness and loyalty.

ShaggyGrower posted a topic in Medical StrainsI want to try a CBD strain, so with my joint second place in the previous White Rhino grow, I chose as part of my prize Super Silver Haze CBD seeds. Not much space going forward, but if I don't pop one now, it'll be next year before I can grow one, so into some filtered water a bean went this morning to soak. If she pops, she'll be in with the Crazy Runt grow - two ShaggyParaberry's, a ShaggyLettuceberry; a 1cm Space Cookies clone; and perhaps some Jacky White and White Rhino clones. Happy Growing!
LedCherryBerry posted a topic in Test Area: White Rhino ContestSo. It is finally time to start this new year with a decent grow journal. Thanking GreenHouseSeeds for giving me this amazing opportunity to test out their WhiteRhino strain, and their Bio Feeding Line of powder nutrients. As mentioned in the inscription post, this will be my equipment: - 4x 6500K 35W LED - 4x Full Spectrum 45W LED - The GreenHouseSeed bank BIO Feeding Line - A 60x60x170 SecretJardin Grow Tent - Airflow with one small fan, and 2 filtered extractors (IN and OUT) for 108m3/h. - 2 initial WhiteRhino seeds, 1 will be chosen and brought to flowering. - Pot sizes, varying from 1L, to 6L, to 11L, to 18L. - A scrog net (this will be my first scrog attempt, please be merciful) - A lot of love and joy doing this. And duct tape. And beer. I plan to increase light power with the increased growth. - 1° Week 70W - 2° Week 105W - 3°-5° Week 140W - 6°-7 Week 140W + 45W FS - 8°-12° Week 140W + 90W FS - Remaining Weeks at Maxium Light Output (140W + 180W FS) With this i want to simulate the increased output of the sun, transitioning from spring, to summer. At the end of Week 7 i'll perform the switch to 12-12. I also plan to feed the girls 6 weeks for VEG, and 8 Weeks for Bloom. I'll start feeding at week 4, when i transplant from 6L to the final pot (which i still need to decide between 11 and 18L). This is the current plan for the grow, that WILL be revised as i go on.

I will decide between the 2, who gets to stay. Below, some pics of the equipment: This is the light rack i've crafted. Pretty basic, huh? Pot sizes AND room space.

sliver1 posted a topic in Grow Journals IndoorHey i have finished moving and after one miserable tent grow i have now setup the new grow room. It is not perfect finish yet, but this will be a test run of the new setup. Especially looking at how i will control the high humidity. The setup is as follows 40w exhaust fan 15w circulation fan X2 110w COB LED X2 The room is covered in panda plastic and is 120cm x 110cm - much like a tent. In this run i will be growing 8x Green Love Potion and 6x White Rhino. The 8GLPs have vegged some time and will get topped multiple times. The 6WRs will hopefully develop one nice cola, kinda SOG, but these clones did very badly and i will see how goes... 12/12 light cycle was initiated 02/09 and i hope to give 8weeks exactly so i can start the next proper SOG grow quickly
ShaggyGrower posted a topic in Test Area: White Rhino ContestHi all, Woohoo, it's competition time. I have received 10 x White Rhino seeds & GHS BIO powder feedings in good time and I'll be looking to germinate in January. 1.2m2 indoor grow starting off under 1 x 125w blue CFL (perhaps x 2) in a 60cmx60cmx90cm propagation tent. Mulling getting a MH for the rest of veg, else it will be that CFL plus 250w/400 of HPS. 600w/660w HPS for flower (new bulb). 428m3 extraction through carbon filter. Substrate: 70% Canna Coco (unfed, ie, not the Pro Plus) & 30% Perlite - so I can see how JUST the BIO feeds get on. Nutrients: Green House BIO feedings only - Water will be roof run off at a ppm of ~ 40 (ec 0.08) @ 23C. Containers: 1 litre / 11 litre / 46 litre I shall be topping early & LSTing to keep height down. Good luck everyone!
evolution666 posted a topic in Test Area: White Rhino ContestHello friends, I got the chance to participate to the white-rhino + feeding bio contest... So here I am with first post after the first 15 days of work. During this time I've use simple neons (2x 110w). I've choose a Plagron Lightmix soil to do it. Today I've change the pot size to a 3,5L and started to use my 400 HPS for around 20 days... after that I'll start flowering. I'll try to post every week the evolution of my 6 plants... Hope it will be a success... Oh yeah... sorry for my basic english... will also try to do my best about that for sure ! Have a great week-end friends ! Evolution666 PS: that's the first time I participated to a GH contest... So after checking some other post from the contest, I'll post more pixx & infos about my work asap... CHEERS ! DAY 13:
sliver1 posted a topic in Test Area: White Rhino ContestHello Im baaaaack I posted here years back, but lost interest in the forum, but now iam back to chek out this amazing new line of bio ferts from GreenHouseSeedsCompany. Iam doing the entire grow indoors, as the seasons where i live do not allow outdoor growing. Lets get straight to it 15/01 - 16/01 The seeds were put in water, and afterwards put in moistened paper towel in a plastic bag. 18/01 8 of 10 seeds were planted in small pots(0,4L) with peat and perlite. Vegging under "50W" LED and watered with BioBizz RootJuice. 21/01 The 9. seed sprouted and was planted together with her other sisters. 28/01 The 10. seed popped (quite unexpectedly), and was moved from its prison in the papertowel and bag to ontop of my livingroom aquarium (a test of mine, hehe). I plan on flowering her in some kind of DWC bucket or something. That is all for now. The plan is to keep them in the small pots for another week(ish) and then transplant them (not sure if i should transplant to their final flowering pots (9,8L) or i should plan on doing two transplants - what do you guy think?). After transplant they will Veg until ~20th. February we're my flower tent will be emptied, harvested and theese WR babies can move into 12/12 in 9,8L fabric pots probably with peat and perlite. I hope to keep you guys updated weekly until then, and then we will have some real fun together when the flowering starts

Victorarrankeddj posted a topic in Grow Journals IndoorWhite Rhino es el resultado de un cruce entre una genética Afgana, una Brasilina y una del Sur de la India. Se trata de una planta compacta, muy pequeña, con entrenudos serados y con grandes hojas. Produce varias ramas secundarias y se desarrolla con una forma de matorral, esta genética se cultiva muy bien en SOG o en SCROG. Esta variedad principalmente Indica (80%Indica-20%Sativa) florece en 9 semanas para una cosecha que puede llegar a los 900grms/m2. En exterior y en el hemisferio norte, la cosecha se hace durante la primera semana de octubre para una producción que puede llegar hasta los 1200gramos/planta. El efecto es intenso y medicinal, en particular para luchar contra el insomnio. El sabor es afrutado y el efecto dura mucho tiempo.

Attached is the WR in her new home. She is being kept in a veg state by using a 85W cfl. I'm still considering whether I'll do a full pc grow or if I'll flower her out in a micro scrog box. The box is already build. Just need a new facelift and a movement of fans and we are all set. I will be having thread on that box build. I just love DIY. Especially after a wake and bake.

Representing women / Tulisa
The Guardian's Lost in Showbiz blog has an excellent post on Tulisa and the media's (the tabloid press', really) representations of women. Within the story there is also a lot of mention of 'chavs', invariably raising issues of class. All very useful stuff for AS media students.
The Leveson inquiry into press ethics
If you're not sure where to start The Guardian has a guide to the essentials of the Leveson inquiry (and much more if you follow the associated links).
And if you're feeling more up-to-date with the issues New Statesman has an opinion article on press ethics well worth a read.
Sexist, but why?
Newspaper front covers are sexist, according to research reported on the Guardian website.
The question is, do these covers amount to evidence of a sexist industry or do they reflect a sexist society? Or both?
Sherlock – The Times
Feature articles in newspapers, especially the quality press supplement magazines, are one way of promoting TV crime drama.
When you've clicked on the thumbnail to get the bigger version you can drag that large version onto a new tab to see the readable version.
I'll Huff and I'll Puff…
The Guardian has a new advertising campaign, intended to highlight the role of newsgathering organisations in the context of global, multi-platform, participatory and on-demand media. Being a print newspaper is not enough these days.
The advertisement is very silly, and eventually makes stereotypical use of those poor pigs. It's worth considering for its other representations.

"You're magnificent," I mumbled. Did I really want this to happen? I wanted to pull away again out of fear and I felt my breathing stop. I was almost paralyzed by it all.
Before I could move, he pulled me to him, throwing one of his legs over my head and sat facing me. His long legs were positioned on each side of me. He grabbed at my elbows so I was almost sitting in his lap. He threw my shirt open and tenderly caressed my breasts. "It's okay. Relax and just enjoy my touch. I won't go any further than you desire."

Ingredient Spotlight: Bulgur Wheat
Often times used in the Lebanese (Syrian, Armenian, Jordanian) dish, tabbouleh, bulgur wheat is a nutritious grain with a nutty flavor. This ingredient is produced by soaking wheat berries (with the bran removed) in water and then drying until they crack. The result is a quick-cooking grain that is delicious added in salads or incorporated into pilafs and stews.
We feature bulgur in our Bulgur Wheat Salad with Arugula & Apricots. The peppery arugula balances the sweetness of apricots in this grain-based, superfood-packed salad, and fennel adds freshness and texture.
Bulgur is a nutrient-rich whole grain that is a great source of vitamin B-6, iron and niacin. Because it has a high protein content and is chock full of fiber, it is an excellent food for satifying one's appetite. Bulgur is not gluten free as it is a wheat derivative.
Curious to try other Lebanese and Middle Eastern cuisine? Check out the below links!
Ingredient Spotlight: Pita
Eggplant, Chickpeas & Basmati Rice with Coriander Yogurt
Curried Sugar Snap Pea, Tomato and Ginger Stew over Couscous

Important: Read before installing.
- Do not interrupt the installation process. If a power outage or other interruption occurs during installation, use the standalone installer (see below) from Apple Support Downloads to update.
- The Mac OS X Server v10.6.2 Update overwrites the /etc/rc.server file. If you have previously made changes to this file, make a backup copy before updating. Any custom sysctl settings should be configured in /etc/sysctl.conf rather than /etc/rc.server. See man rc.server and the /etc/sysctl.conf.default file for details.
- You may experience unexpected results if you have third-party system software modifications installed, or if you've modified the operating system through other means. (This does not apply to normal application software installation.)
- This update can be installed on non-startup volumes, but you should only do this if the current startup volume has already been updated to Mac OS X Server v10.6.2. The simplest way to avoid issues from an improper installation is to start up from the volume that you wish to update.
There are three ways to update to Mac OS X Server version 10.6.2:
- Use Software Update
- Install from a standalone installer
- Install on a remote server via Server Admin or the softwareupdate command-line utility
Software Update installation
Software Update may have referred you to this article. Because some updates are prerequisites for others, you may need to use Software Update more than once to obtain all available updates.
Standalone installer
If you want to download and manually install the update, an installer is available from Apple Support Downloads. This a useful option if you need to update multiple computers but only want to download the update once.
Remote installation
If you need to install the update on a remote server, you can do so using the Server Admin application or the softwareupdate command-line tool.
What's included?
This update includes improvements listed below, as well as ones delivered with the Mac OS X Server version 10.6.1 update.
Note: The improvements listed for AFP Client, Client Management, Directory Services (Client) and Mobile Accounts are delivered in the Mac OS X v10.6.2 Update (client update), but are described in this article for ease of reference. The AFP Client and Directory Services (Client) improvements also apply to Mac OS X Server v10.6.2 when the server is used as a client of another AFP or directory server.
AFP Client
- Improves compatibility with third-party AFP Servers and Mac OS 9 Personal File Sharing.
- Improves connection speed to AFP servers when using Kerberos authentication.
Calendar Service
- Web calendar interface now works when the server is in the Indiana/Indianapolis time zone.
Client Management
- Fixes a Keychain problem that could prevent managed clients from performing Time Machine backup to a server volume.
- When Time Machine preferences are managed, the option to back up system files is now properly respected.
- Access to Exposé can now be controlled by managed preferences. For more information, see this article.
Directory Services (Client)
- Improves creation of mobile accounts for Active Directory users.
- Fixes an issue with the sudo command when using authenticated Open Directory binding.
- Improves smart card authentication.
Mail Service
- Improves reliability of Mail service on servers upgraded from Mac OS X v10.4 or 10.5.
- Users with high-ASCII characters (such as å, é, or ø) in their names can now set up Mail Rules and Vacation Notices on the server.
- Mail service now supports chained certificates for SSL encryption.
- Improves Mail Clustering reliability.
Mobile Accounts
- Improves reliability of home directory synchronization for users with mobile accounts.
- Improves creation of mobile accounts for Active Directory users.
Open Directory Service
- Resolves a keychain error when restoring from an Open Directory archive.
Podcast Producer
- Podcasts published to a user blog or group wiki now appear in RSS subscriptions in iTunes.
- Preview is now displayed correctly in Podcast Compose when performing dual-source recording with an external video camera.
- Podcast Composer can now create workflows with notifications addressed to users in domains with long names, such as ".local" or ".private".
- The 'podcast --listcatalogs' command now works correctly.
Secure Login Service
- Addresses an issue that could cause a user's network home directory to be unmounted when that user connects to the server via SSH. For more information see this article.
Server Configuration
- Instructions in the /etc/sysctl.conf file are now processed after those in the /etc/rc.server file.
Software Update Service
- Service now works when updates are stored on a volume that has a space in its name.
- User bandwidth limitations are now correctly applied.
Web Service
- Improves stability of Web service when scgi_pubsub_module is enabled.
Server Admin
- Improves stability of Server Admin application.
- Includes Netboot/Netinstall model filters for Macs introduced in October, 2009.
- DHCP service status is now reported correctly when viewing the Netboot service overview.

Server Preferences
- Improves general usability and reliability of Server Preferences, including the creation and deletion of users and groups.
- Guest access for File Sharing is now correctly granted when enabled in Server Preferences.
System Image Utility
- Includes Netboot/Netinstall model filters for Macs introduced in October, 2009.
Workgroup Manager

Additional Improvements
- Improves Mac OS X Server security. For more information about the security content of Mac OS X Server v10.6.2 see this article.

Last Saturday (8th May) Bosco Volunteer Action (BOVA) welcomed two new volunteers to training in preparation for volunteering overseas with the Salesians. The training day was held in the Parish Centre at Sacred Heart, Battersea; a slight change of scene from our usual residential weekend at Savio House, but this gave us an opportunity to have a walk around Battersea and see the construction of the new school and community house, whilst giving our volunteers a chance to learn about the history of the Salesians in Battersea.
The day included input from Anita, Martin, and Venus, a returned volunteers who spent a year volunteering in Campo Grande, Brazil.
We ended our training with the vigil mass at the parish and a beautiful gospel that was very fitting for a training event for volunteers in preparation. The phrase that particularly rang true for me and my experience of working with our Salesian volunteers was 'It was not you who chose me, but I who chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit that will remain'. Most of our volunteers do go on to have fruitful learning experiences that come from serving the young and the poor in a new cultural context. Volunteers do bring these experiences back home and go on to use them to inform the next steps in their own journeys, whether personally, professionally or spiritually, and with our support throughout.
BOVA are always looking for new volunteers to come and have an experience of service and learning in a Salesian community overseas. We regularly send volunteers to India, Tanzania, Kenya, Zambia, Cambodia, The Philippines, Mongolia, Bolivia and Brazil; and are continually seeking to meet the needs of communities whilst supporting our volunteers through reflective learning.
