— The first step is to study with the help of a regular mobile phone the availability of GSM networks in the area where you plan to deploy the collars. This is crucial to decide which technology you need to use and which operator to select.
— The price of one elephant GPS collar is posted on our website and updated from time to time. Applicable sales taxes are to be added. This covers the costs of parts, assembling and testing.
— Payment is to be made in full at the time of order, by transfer or cheque. Sorry, no cash, no credit facilities.
— For each collar, you need to pay a service charge (see current prices) per year for your 24h/24 access to the server. This amount includes the maintenance of the server and the website, the download of the Android or iPhone application, the update of the website and applications, the storage and protection of your data in 2 datacenters.
— Unless you opt for multi-operator SIM cards, for each collar, you need a post-paid SIM card (standard size only, not mini, micro or nano) to be chosen among the mobile operators with the best network in the area where you want to work. This SIM card should work both on 2G or 3G and allow Mobile data and roaming.
— Your system won't suffer anymore from the connection failures of local operators. The tracker will always use the best available network.
— At the present rate, our multi-operator SIM cards cost only Rs. 800 per month, and no roaming charges are to be expected. It is limited however to 9 positions per day in average. Payment is to be renewed once a year only.
Note that these SIM cards are limited to the transmission of small data packets and cannot be used in a mobile phone to make calls. There are restrictions on the use of such cards in certain areas, especially in the North-East.
ElephanTTrackinG collars can now be provided with multi-operator SIM cards that work with most GSM operators in India. Using such SIM cards offers several advantages :
— You don't need to go through the time-consuming process of obtaining a local SIM card.
— Multi-operator SIM cards work anywhere in India except restricted areas, so you don't need a specific SIM card according to the area where you want to use the elephant collars.
— Your collars will benefit from the combined networks of several GSM operators. Therefore, the collars will transmit from a much larger area than that of one single network, which is crucial in forest areas.
Multi-operator SIM cards :
RECOMMENDATION: Always store the collars at moderate temperature (max. 30°C/86°F) in a dry ventilated place, preferably with the module oriented towards the sky near a window or under a veranda but not under direct sunshine.
WARNING: DO NOT TRY TO OPEN THE MODULE AS IT MAY BE HAZARDOUS. Risks of fire, explosion and burn hazard. Do not recharge, short circuit, crush, disassemble, heat above 100°C (212°F), incinerate the batteries or expose contents to water. Do not solder directly to the cell.
Mobile data is billed per volume of data transmitted and not by time. Each transmission represents a very small volume of data, so you should be billed only around Rs 500 per month directly by your operator. This may vary according to the number of positions acquired per day or due to roaming charges if the elephant crosses a state border.
— Once activated, send us your SIM cards along with the corresponding APN (Access Point Name). We will insert them in the electronic modules, test them and seal them for waterproofing purposes. This phase is included in the initial cost of the collars.
— The delivery or shipping of the collars to your location will be at your charge, calculated according to your location. Initially, we suggest that you come to Bangalore to be explained the fitting of the collars, check that they are working and take delivery of the equipment.
— Fitting the collar and using the website is really simple. You will receive the Instruction Manual and counselling by email or phone will not be charged. However, if you need us to intervene in the field for technical or training purposes, write to us and let's discuss it.
Conditions of sales :
Prepare your ElephanTTrackinG program :
Pricing policy :
Our prices also depend on the evolution of foreign exchange rate that affect the cost of imported parts, and the number of collars per order.
By joining ElephanTTrackinG, you not only acquire an exceptional tool but you also contribute to this effort.
Our prime motive is the conservation of wildlife and in our view, it is not a business nor an industry. With this non-profit philosophy, we have attempted to price the ElephanTTrackinG equipment and services at the lowest possible so that it can be used widely in India and South Asia by all of you who share the same concerns that guide us. However, since our products and services are sourced from various industries that do not all share our principles and motives, the more people will join us and use the system, the better we can control prices.
The Android and iPhone application :
— Program the number and times of positions.
— Map the movements of the elephants during a selected period of time with the history function.
— Create a zone and use the Geofencing function.
— Download your data under Excel, PDF or HTML.
— Your account and entire data are kept confidential on the server.
Manage your monitoring program with the ElephanTTrackinG website :
— The weight of one elephant collar is just below 10kg or 0.3 to 0.4% of the body weight of an average adult elephant. It varies according to neck-girth, proportionally to the size of the animal.
— The level of the batteries is monitored remotely and you can adjust your programmation to save the life of the batteries.
— The battery level loses about 10% per year with 4-6 positions per day. The battery life depends on the number of transmissions per day, the level of the GSM signal and the temperature.
— Manufacture and maintenance of the collars are undertaken in Bangalore.
New features of the ElephanTTrackinG collars :
The latest technology at the service of wildlife tracking now available in India.
ElephanTTrackinG was born from the need to develop and share a tracking system for elephants in India on a non-profit basis. For us, GPS collars represent an indispensable tool to study the movements of wild elephants, and can be used as an advance warning system for the prevention of Human Elephant Conflict, but also as a modern alternative to the historical practice of chaining tamed elephants, so that they may free-range in their natural habitat.
Our aim is to provide top technology at the lowest possible price with the foremost concern for wildlife conservation. We designed ElephanTTrackinG with the highest requirements and we are its first users. So download the PDF file, write to us and join the ElephanTTrackinG community. You can also purchase and donate a collar to an organization working with elephants
Introduced by Aane Mane Foundation in exclusive collaboration with Geotraceur (France), ElephanTTrackinG is a complete wildlife tracking system that includes the latest technology available today. The field operation is undertaken in collaboration with the Centre for Ecological Sciences, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore.
— The collars are designed based on several years of testing in the field, entirely assembled and serviced in Bangalore, with the new GPS transmitter designed by Geotraceur.
— The website is accessible to registered members from any Internet connected computer or from your android mobile phone with a specific application to be downloaded. It features many options that allow you to design and manage autonomously your monitoring program.
Prices are subject to change. For exact costs, please ask for a quotation. All our collars are checked with your SIM cards before delivery. We are confident about their sturdiness and reliability. Even after, it is easy to check on the website if they are working properly, but the conditions of use of elephant tracking collars are so unpredictable (physical shocks, temperature, water, etc...) that
we do not guarantee the equipment against any damage once delivered.
However, we can service and repair your collars in Bangalore, so that only the damaged parts and replacement charges are billed (plus shipment). You will be sent a quotation to be approved beforehand.
Once a member, download the application for your Android mobile phone or iPhone and when in the field, you can still access the system via the 2G or 3G network:
— Activate or deactivate the trackers,
— Visualize on the satellite map the last position acquired for each animal.
— Locate the animal in the field with the compass function.
— Receive an alert if the animal crosses the limit of the geofencing zone you have created.
Once your ElephanTTrackinG account is created and you receive your personal password, you can access the website and discover its multiple functions:
— Activate or deactivate your trackers.
— Rename your trackers/animals.
— Create groups of animals that should appear together or separately on the map.
— The collars are sturdy and harmless, principally made of natural rubber. They have been designed based on over 3 years of tests in real conditions in the field.
— The collars include an electronic module or 'tracker' and a counterweight.
— The tracker is protected against shocks and water by a custom made shell and a double waterproofing seal.
— The tracker acquires the GPS position and forwards it directly to the server using the available 2G or 3G network.
— In case of failed transmission, the data is stored in the tracker and sent at the next connection.
— The counterweight is made of chromium coated steel. It has been specially designed so that it can lock the collar without any holes to any size within minutes. You don't need to measure the neck-girth of the elephant in advance (usually about 2m for an adult female and 3m for a male). Our collars are delivered with a length of 4m so as to fit any elephant and the excess is cut once fitted.
Elephant GPS/GPRS collar @ Rs 120.000* + Server charges @ Rs 10.000* per year
: Multi-operator SIM card @ Rs 9.600* per year (see below)
* Indicative price for 1 unit. Plus applicable taxes. Subject to change. Read our Pricing Policy & Conditions of Sales.

HA! Guaranteed to make you laugh
Regardless of how your funny bone is tickled, HA!, the Adams State University Theatre Program production will make you laugh. The three one-acts open at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 5 in the Xperimental Theatre and continues nightly through Saturday, Feb. 9.
Directed by senior theatre majors, Mason Scott Miller '13, and Jason Wells '14, HA!, written by Rich Orloff, includes "Oedi," "The News from St. Petersburg," and "The Whole Shebang." According to the website richorloff.com, "Oedi," a farcical retelling of the Oedipus Rex story, faces the overlooked fact that if Oedipus married his mother, she had to be old enough to be his mother. "The News from St. Petersburg," a Chekhovian spoof set in 1905 Russia, examines the effect of a rumor on an aristocratic couple, their doctor, and an overworked and temporarily overjoyed serf. "The Whole Shebang." asks the question, "What if the entire universe was just some nerd's science project?"
Wells described the three one-acts as being everything from witty to slap stick to bad puns. "Something for everyone." Miller agreed: "Bunions, cows, lessons, and laughter, the shows will keep you on your toes."
Both directors said their cast picked up immediately on the comedic timing. Wells, directing "Oedi" and "The News from St. Petersburg," said he directed one play very tightly with specific instructions and the other he choose a looser directing style. "Both styles worked very well and produced the desired effect."
Miller directed "The Whole Shebang" and designed the sound and music for it. "I am really proud of the lighting design because it automatically puts you in another world. All the elements of the show will work together perfectly." Miller plans on graduating next fall and hopes to work in, or own, a recording studio. Wells, a double major in theatre and history, dreams of starting his own theatre – maybe in Grand Junction.
"When I read through these scripts I could not stop laughing. When Mason read them, he had the same experience. It would be a great disservice to miss these comedies," Wells said.
To reserve tickets for HA!, call 719-587- 8499.

IDPs in Luuq seek more assistance
Thousands of internally displaced people (IDPs) in Luuq, in Somalia's southern Gedo Region, say their overcrowded settlements are desperately short of basic needs, from shelter to clean water.
"The majority of the population here in these camps are women, children and elderly people who fled from recent battles and droughts in Bay, Bakool and lower Juba. There has been no basic human needs provision for the last months, the condition of the camps is deteriorating as there is no shelter, food or adequate health attention, and it's the raining period," said Ali Mohamed, leader of one of the makeshift camps in the area.
According to Mohamed, up to 3,000 families are in need of humanitarian support. He noted that the situation was particularly serious as the 'Gu' seasonal rains - which last from September to December - had started and were putting the population at risk of waterborne diseases.
Ahmed Dagawyne, head of the local NGO Centre for Research and Integrated Development (CeRID) told IRIN that, although humanitarian assistance had started trickling in, there remains a wide gap in addressing the IDPs' needs.
Andreas Needham, public information officer for the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR), told IRIN that the agency was aware of the situation in Luuq.
"UNHCR is operating through local partner organizations on the ground, and on 10 October distributed 2,000 emergency assistance packages and 2,000 hypothermia kits to 4,000 needy households," he told IRIN via email.
The emergency assistance packages - also known as non-food items - include blankets, sleeping mats, a plastic sheet, a kitchen set, a jerrycan and soap. The hypothermia kits contain blankets, mattresses and plastic sheeting, among other things.
"This initiative is being undertaken as a result of lessons learned following the 1992 famine, when a number of children succumbed as a result of the onset of the cold conditions," Needham said.
UNHCR estimates that the current IDP population in Luuq is 16,380, occupying 10 settlements; many of them were displaced over the last two years following the 2011 food crisis.

You Can't Detect What You Can't See: Illuminating the Entire Kill Chain
On-Demand Webinar
While Carly Fiorina clearly drifted out of line with her board, looking back, she actually appeared relatively visionary. She saw the importance of the consumer market, the importance of software, even the importance of vastly stronger marketing -- all of which defined much of Apples success over the last decade.
In the end, this speaks to the why behind HPs latest changes at the top, and it has more to do with the positional power between the CEO and Chairman of the board than anything else.
What was fascinating at the time was that the image of software was largely wrapped up in the image of Microsoft, which appeared to be increasingly struggling, and during a time when HP and Microsoft were closer partners. This means that from the outside what she was doing seemed counterintuitive.
She knew HP needed a strong consumer product line and unfortunately fell for a deal from Steve Jobs that resulted in HPs licensing of the iPod and being locked out of the growing MP3 player market until it matured. However, she clearly saw the importance of the iPod back when it was in its early generations and long before any of the other CEOs. The only company Steve Jobs personally moved to shut down in this market was HP, suggesting Fiorina was the only CEO, and HP the only company, in those early years that really frightened him.
Even when Mark Hurd came in he met with Fiorina on several occasions and, with the exception of software, largely executed the strategy she had created. Granted he overdid it with regard to cost cutting and overturned her efforts on software and R&D, all of which actually hurt HP strategically. But his vision was mostly Fiorinas.
So what was wrong?
You may recall that Fiorina stepped down from the board chair but still was fired because the board didnt feel she was following their direction, which was the direct result of weakness on the board. When Mark Hurd took over he demonstrated that weakness by helping force out Patty Dunn, the sitting Chairman, and then taking the role himself. He then also became intractable and eventually crossed a line that allowed this weakened board to replace him. But they didnt want to make the same mistake made by two prior boards and place the absolute strength in the office of the CEO.
They had 6 candidates. Ray Lane was likely one of them because he had been a candidate before. And because they wanted balance between the board and the office of the CEO, they effectively took two candidates and placed them in together so neither could drop out of control. Ray Lane, the more powerful of the two, is placed as Chairman to both keep the CEO focused on the job rather than his own compensation (or in the case of Fiorina, next job) and keep the board from fragmenting as badly as it did during the Fiorina/Hurd transition.
Leo Apotheker is running the day-to-day operations of the company but wont have the ability to steam roll the HP board because Ray Lane has too much positional power. The end result is balance between the executive office and the board where both work for the benefit of the company. The problems HP has had in the past, with regard to out of control CEOs and boards, shouldnt recur.
I think we can expect HP to dramatically increase its investment in software and that their relationships with Oracle will likely become even more strained. Particularly when you think about the example its making, assuming their experiment is successful. It is a counterpoint to the ultra-powerful CEO/subordinate board that often defines current generation companies like Oracle and is at the core of why so many CEOs have gotten into trouble of late.
In short, they are revisiting the idea of dramatic change at HP, but after learning why it didnt work last time, they are implementing the idea differently and focusing the firm where the market is going, this decade rather than last.
Learning from your mistakes is critical to success and it appears that HPs current board may be learning from the mistakes of their predecessors. If IBMs tag line is Think, maybe what HPs is becoming is Hope. Hope that HP and other firms will evolve back to a time when making a firm a great place to work was important and where drama had more to do with interesting new products than alleged sexual misadventures. I think, after the last decade, we could all use a little inspiration that this is what HPs change is about: providing that hope.

By Steve Edwards
"How can you improve on the world's number one fitness program?" is a reasonable question that I'm often asked when I tell people I've been working on its successor, P90X2. As Hollywood has quite clearly shown, sequels rarely live up to the original. But once in a while something bucks the trend, and we're fairly certain we've made The Godfather: Part II and not Staying Alive. In this series of articles, we'll be giving you a rundown on what to expect from the next P90X®.
The working title of this project was MC2. That's for Muscle Confusion™ 2, and of course, there's going to be more of what made the original so special. But this time around, we're taking Muscle Confusion to a whole new level, maybe even times two. To understand why requires a little bit of history.
P90X was developed to answer customer requests for a program more challenging than Power 90® and Slim in 6®, Beachbody's original blockbusters. So we set out to make the type of training program that an athlete would use to prepare for a season, except the sport we chose was life in general. Combining the theories of cross-training, progressive overload, periodization, and the specificity of adaptation, we began a series of test groups to try and estimate the tolerance of difficulty that the general public could handle, or more appropriately, would want to.
Turns out this was more than we knew at the time—though the fact that we cast test group subjects because they outperformed professional fitness trainers should have given us a clue. The program was so advanced that many professional athletes began using P90X instead of their own team trainers. This we hadn't anticipated. We knew we had a solid program, absolutely, but we didn't count on athletes who make millions of dollars a year ignoring highly paid professionals and working out to a video. If we had, we might have done things a little differently.
Knowing that the world was watching, we began P90X2 development searching for a consultant. We traveled as high up the food chain as possible, where we found Dr. Marcus Elliott. His training facility, P3 (Peak Performance Project), is at the absolute cutting edge of sport. Using the latest in equipment and applied science, P3's client list reads like, well, the front page of the sports section. Dr. Elliott signed on as head of our Scientific Advisory Board, ensuring we had the means to raise the bar.
That's not to say we weren't already succeeding. Anyone who ordered the P90X ONE on ONE® workouts could see we'd been experimenting with many new training modalities. Tony's newfound love of training on unstable platforms, honed by his relationship with functional trainer Steve Holmson, became, literally, the foundation of P90X2.
Access to P3 and Dr. Elliott also provided challenges. Because our customers are not primarily athletes, we needed to do a lot of homework to determine how to best integrate P3's elite systems into our demographic. Research was done, numbers crunched, theories were applied and tested, and test pilots (often yours truly) were beaten into submission. In the end, the collaboration resulted in a program that we think improved on our wildest expectations.
While it's still based around the periodizational principles of P90X, X2 has a broader scope. In short, it's more versatile, which is saying something, considering that P90X is by far the most versatile training program on the market today. Here are the three training phases of P90X2 and what you can expect from them.
In conclusion, we think we've created an "Oscar winner." P90X2 is a training program anyone with a decent fitness base can succeed at. It can be done by someone who has only completed one round of Power 90 and still be challenging to the world's best athletes. It's versatile enough so anyone who sees it through to its end can achieve major increases in performance. And while it won't replace P90X (or make it feel dated as The Godfather), it should absolutely take your results to the next level.

Amber + Silver = Rarity
The combination of amber and silver is so common that sometimes it may seem to be cliché. However, in the hands of a creative artist it may rise to the range of a masterpiece. Just like it was the case with Tomasz Ogrodowski and his ring Amber and Silver from 1998.
A Woman, According to Mariusz Drapikowski
A sculpture of a woman, which is being presented at an exhibition at the Amber Museum, belongs to the limited collection inspired by the beauty and harmony of the female body. It was created in the 1990s. as a result of cooperation with a popular sculptor - Jacek Sumeradzki.
A Copy of Princess Sybilla's Necklace
Jacek Baron has been dealing with, designing and producing jewellery decorated with amber for over 30 years. He is known mostly for his creativity: the mechanical collection and the Baron Cut cut will surely become a piece of history.
Amber & Fashion Show at the Amber Museum
The opening of the Amber Museum was accompanied by a fashion show featuring. There were tree jewellery and fashion collections presented by fashion and jewellery designers.
It Was a Unique Amber Night...
Friday September 13th left an amber mark in the history of Cracow. Guests from all over Poland - amber lovers came to celebrate this unusual event.
The Amber Museum in Cracow is already open!
"I had wanted to open a place like that for a long time. I wanted to create a place in Cracow which would present amber in an attractive, but also multidimensional way. So far, our activities have focused on presenting the aesthetic values of contemporary amber products. At the museum, though, we have combined amber products with educational values" - explains Tomasz Mikołajczyk, the initiator.
Kayah likes and wears amber, which to a large extent determined the decision about granting her the honorary title of the Amber Ambassador. In her first interview following her nomination she is telling us who perceives amber and how she is going to promote it.
Tomasz Mikołajczyk, who has been involved in the amber industry for 25 years, is telling us about his latest project which "surpasses all accepted schemes and standards". The project is a private Museum of Amber in Cracow and the purchase of spectrometer which is meant to "bring the market back to normal".

Launching MATLAB without the desktop 20
Posted by Michael Katz,
I hope you don't find it weird that I'm advertising -nodesktop mode on the Desktop blog. Don't worry, I won't take it personally if you decide to use this startup option. -nodesktop behaves differently depending if you are on Windows vs Linux or Mac. On Windows we provide a boring Command-Window only interface that lacks the "bells and whistles" of the regular Command Window or the full Desktop. I'm too biased to offer an opinion, but some of our users have reported they find this mode aesthetically pleasing. FYI, we recommend starting the MATLAB Desktop with the Command Window only layout instead of the -nodesktop route, Desktop -> Desktop Layout -> Command Window Only; using -nodesktop on Windows is not officially supported.
Linux nodesktop
In the -nodesktop mode, you still have full access to figure windows, and you can bring up pieces of the desktop with commands like edit and commandhistory. You can launch the full desktop with the command desktop, but doing this puts control with the regular command window, and you're left with a non-functioning -nodesktop command window window. When you bring up the Desktop in this manner, closing the Desktop window will return control to the original command window; it does not exit MATLAB.
Do not confuse this option with -nojvm option, which not only does not load the desktop, but does not load java. That means you can't later bring up the desktop, (in the future) launch figure windows, or use any commands that use java libraries, like some of the network and file i/o functions. We don't recommend using this option.
There's also a -nosplash option for starting MATLAB, but this just skips the splash screen (the first window with the picture of the membrane and the version number). It still loads into the desktop.
For more information on options when launching MATLAB, here is the documentation for windows and unix.

I like it!
The -nodesktop option is great. I'd like to use it to generate some plots on a regular basis and am wondering if you can turn off the desktop entirely. For example, if I have a test script called test.m that has the following contents:
x = 0:0.1:2*pi(); y = sin( x ); plot(x,y); %print -dpng test.png; saveas( gcf(), 'test.fig', 'fig' ); saveas( gcf(), 'test.png', 'png' ); exit;
And I call this script through a batch file called test.bat:
start matlab -nosplash -nodesktop -minimize -r test
Then, I can get a test.png file showing my plot as well as a copy of the data as plotted for later investigation. (As an aside, I checked and, yes, the print command and saveas produce equivalent png images.) In the process, however, the command window is brought up (minimized, thanks to the built-in Windows 'start' command) and the figure window flashes. Are there any command-line switches that prevent this from happening? It seems that on *NIX environments, one can simply set the DISPLAY environment to a null value and achieve this result, but I cannot find a way to do it in Windows… Can you offer any advice here?
@David – you can use the following undocumented/unsupported trick to completely hide the desktop window. Note that you will need to programmatically exit Matlab (using the exit function) because you will not be able to close the hidden window:
Be very careful when using this, to prevent a "zombie" Matlab process that churns CPU/memory without you knowing that it still exists in the background…
– Yair
It seems it can save 100M memory in Matlab. That is good…
Regarding '-nodesktop' vs. '-nojvm', there is a third (undocumented/unsupported) option: '-noawt'. -noawt loads Java (thus enabling Java I/O, data structures etc.) and just prevents Java GUI. This has been a suggested compromise for remote access:
– Yair
I've been using Sublime Text as my text editor or choice for a minute, however I'm having a problem. I cannot figure out for the life of me how to execute anything from the editor without getting a new matlab instance to launch. It is pretty obnoxious.
Is there any way to tell the matlab console to execute something in the current workspace, via the windows command line?
I don't know much about that text editor, but if you are able to program it to make COM calls (it looks like a Windows program), you can set up MATLAB as an automation server I assume you are no just issuing shell commands of "MATLAB"?
So, it is impossible to launch matlab remotely via ssh on Windows then I take it?
I take from the additional details you provided in your Stack Overflow question, that you care about running MATLAB in a batch mode, rather interactively working with it interactively. You can use the -r option when running MATLAB to kick off a script or function. If your called function saves its output to disk this should work fine. E.g.
matlab -nodesktop -r myfunction,quit
If it's later case where you need an interactive mode, there are some rather non-trivial options, and you can contact me to discuss them offline.
I have one big wish, and it's been years I've been bothered by this.
Please make the -nodesktop command line more libreadline-like. I know you can't use libreadline because that's GPL'ed, but please make out lives easier by supporting the pseudo-Emacs shortcuts that are available in the desktop CLI:
^U – Kill line to beginning
^K – Kill line to end
^W – Delete word backwards
m-D – Delete words forwards
It's ironic that the terminal mode of Matlab has fewer of the traditional keybindings than the Desktop CLI.
A statement about this would be appreciated.
I tend to use Octave just because it has readline ergonomy, but developing Mex files for it is not 100% the same.
What if I am writing an application that can be called from the command line but may use GUI's for some actions? Can I detect whether MATLAB is in one of these modes that are incompatible with GUI's?
Yes. Check out the javachk function. For general GUI usage, use the 'swing' level.
The -nodesktop option is a lifesaver for working remotely. However, it gets completely confused when I am scrolling up my history and some history items take up more than one line. The items then get all mixed up together on the screen and it is impossible to modify particular parts of that command. Is there any way to prevent this erratic behavior? Is this a known bug that will be fixed?
I don't know if that is supported, and if so, under what conditions. I recommend that you contact technical support. If it is a bug, they would know best how to work around it.
I'm looking for what Bob on April 14 2010 was looking for. A Windows command line to start matlab and then have matlab interact with stdin/stdout. With this you could iteractively work with text-only matlab over ssh or work with matlab in an emacs shell buffer. I remember (perhaps falsely) of doing this all the time with linux matlab and would really like to do with Windows.
I am also interested in what Bob (14 Apr 2010) and Doug (12 Aug 2011) seek — a way to make Matlab on a remote windows machine behave like Matlab on a remote *nix machine. You invited Bob to contact you offline for details. How does one contact you? I can't find any contact info on your blog.
@Doug & @Timothy,
Unfortunately I've lost the original context of that conversation, so I don't recall exactly what I shared with Bob. What I probably meant was writing a shell program that uses MATLAB as a COM automation server. Or using the MATLAB Engine from a C program.
It is probably easier using Windows Remote Desktop Connection or VNC to remotely access your Windows MATLAB.
I too would like to run Matlab on Windows the same way as on Linux. I use make to run Matlab programs, redirecting stdout to appropriate output files. This automates my work flow – If I update a program, I can let make figure out what (else) needs to be run to bring all output files up to date.
Is there a way under Windows to run Matlab as a filter, taking input from stdin and sending output to stdout? Or even just sending output to stdout?
I use -nodesktop every time. However, it has an annoying bug on MacOS that no one at Mathworks seems to want to admit exists. Sometimes, esp. if I run with matlabpool, it steals the echo of the command line after I exit. This is incredibly frustrating as I have to close the terminal session every time.
I am trying to postprocess data contained in hundreds of different folders (results of a batch job) using my MATLAB routine.
When doing matlab -nodesktop -nosplash -r "mymatfile;quit", I get MATLAB starting up and not actually doing any operations on my data. Moreover, the MATLAB session does not terminate itself but requires me to manually enter a "quit". This would go one hundreds of times except that I exit the job.
Any idea how I can get around my problem?
1) I am working in a Linux environment.
2) In the above command line, the original file is called mymatfile.m. I leave out the suffix as recommended here.
3) There is no space between the commands contained within the " quotes.

Increase your happiness through giving this holiday season
New contributing author Deborah Goldstein challenges us to elevate our giving during the holiday season and to think about its impact on others and ourselves.
Another calendar page has turned and I find myself in November already! And quickly approaching Thanksgiving! I don't know about you, but I don't feel ready for the holiday season yet.
I know a sure-fire way to prepare though…start giving! I'm not talking about the traditional gift giving we're accustomed to during this season. Instead, try giving to others or to organizations or causes you care about. This will definitely increase your happiness and is bound to lighten your mood at this time of year. Try it.
While some people love the holiday season, it is a difficult time for others. It is a reminder of loved ones who have passed or childhood memories forgotten. It's easy to forget that others might be feeling this way. Take the opportunity to give back and I bet you'll feel differently about the season.
Here are a few ways to get into the mood for a happier, healthier holiday season:
Just start thinking about giving! It's true. Research shows that thinking about giving signals the pleasure center in the brain. A good time to start is when you're sitting around the table at Thanksgiving. Begin by expressing gratitude for what you have in your life (another key to happiness). Then move on to asking how each person might give. For example, you could ask:
- What motivates you to give?
- What is most satisfying about giving?
- If you had $1,000 to give away, how would you allocate it? What if you had $1 million to give away? What if you had $100 to give away?
Now just imagine how you'll feel once you act on these thoughts of giving!
Help others by giving your time. We often think that our happiness is related to our job, socioeconomic status, or where we live. However, researchers have determined that this only accounts for 10% of our happiness. Fifty percent is genetically pre-set. The remaining 40% is in our control and is related to the intentional activities we engage in, like helping others. Find a way to help your older neighbors this holiday season and you'll be happier.
In fact, helping others also gives you a "helper's high" or "giver's glow." As we help the neighbor or volunteer at the local food bank, our brain pumps out dopamine, elevating our mood. The great thing is, these actions have a cumulative effect!
The other benefit to helping others is that it reduces depression. The holidays are a difficult time of year for many. Try turning that around by helping someone else.
Volunteering can also add years to your life, regardless of when you start. The key is to do it with regularity.
And be sure to involve your kids as well. You'll be teaching them lifelong lessons of giving as well as helping to create a protective halo around them as they age.
Help others by giving your treasure. Giving money may seem obvious. Many of us write checks to our favorite organizations at the end of the year. But did you know why you feel good when you make a donation? Just like giving your time, giving money increases dopamine levels in your brain.
I suggest you take some time to review your values before giving. When we give in alignment with our values, the experience will become more meaningful for each of us and for the recipient. Giving comes from a very different place when it's in line with our core values.
All of this research reminded me why I love being a part of the world of philanthropy. Not only does giving feel good…it actually IS good for our mental and physical well being!
I'm curious, how does giving make you feel?

Peter Chadwick uses his lens to artfully capture the lives of seabirds whose existence is under threat, but whose hope is presented in our seeing the truth. As a dedicated conservationist, Chadwick has 30 years' experience in terrestrial and marine protected area management. He's worked in some of Africa's most special wild places, including the Kgalagadi Desert, the Drakensberg Mountains and the sub-Antarctic Prince Edward Islands. This has instilled in him a deep passion for the continent, its wild places and its peoples.
Chadwick's wildlife photography is a natural extension of his conservation work, with images that showcase the beauty and complexity of the outdoors. He believes that "through a photograph, we have the ability to capture a moment in time which, if correctly composed, can positively influence the way we respond, think and act". He aims to take compelling and ethical pictures that communicate the key values of the environment, showcasing its benefits and highlighting the need for the protection of our fragile planet.
Of the images captured here, Chadwick says: "Apart from making stunning photographic subjects, seabirds are, sadly, the most threatened group of birds as a result of man-induced pressures on our oceans. With their rapidly dwindling numbers, they're important indicators that we need to wake up and start protecting the oceans that make the earth unique and upon which we depend for our own survival. With the aim of raising awareness of the fragile state of our oceans, I've partnered with the seabird division of BirdLife SA and Wildscreen Exchange.

Former president Kgalema Motlanthe says the prevalence of "bogus branches and bogus members" has flawed the ANC's elective processes, adding that he would not be attending the ANC's elective conference in December, according to Business Day.
On the sidelines of a lecture given to Stellenbosch University's Business School on Friday night, Motlanthe told Business Day that the elective conference was increasingly flawed owing to electoral irregularities.
He reportedly said that branches and the leagues should take the lead in the electoral process.
"Once all of those processes and requirements are disregarded and delegates to the conference are not elected by members but handpicked by leaders on the basis of perceived support, it defeats the purpose of the majority of delegates being delegates from branches.
"Because the processes are flawed, it's really pointless to even hope that the outcomes of such flawed processes would be reflective of the collective views of the membership. It can produce any outcome, so it would be difficult to attach or invest in any hope in the process," he told Business Day.
Also on Friday, Motlanthe warned that democracy should not be taken for granted, according to Fin24. He said that "strategic action" should be taken to address challenges, and said that inclusive growth was necessary to address inequality.
"This view is increasing, questioning the capitalist system's ability to attend to challenges... It is important for countries to focus on competitiveness while keeping an eye on other factors. We always operate in a wider economic community," Motlanthe reportedly said.
Motlanthe has become increasingly vocal in his criticism of the ANC. He lost to President Jacob Zuma in a presidential election at Mangaung in 2012.
In an address to the launch of the Olof Palme Youth Education Initiative at Midrand High School earlier this month, Motlanthe was critical of the frequent Cabinet reshuffles that have occurred during Zuma's tenure.
According to News24, he said: "[The new minister comes with] 14 to 16 new senior managers without first going into the department and understanding the strength and institutional memory which resides in the department. You know what that means? It means that the state is being destabilised and weakened...
"It shouldn't happen that way, we should be very worried each time there is a reshuffle, it means the entire experienced team is set aside and a new team is brought in... because the state must always be stable," he said.

Gambia's security chiefs, including the head of the military, are urging citizens and business owners who fled the country to return and resume normal lives.
Gambia's military chief assured there will be no war in the West African nation where West African leaders are still pushing for former President Yahya Jammeh to cede power peacefully.
More than 45,000 Gambians have fled the country sparking a humanitarian crisis at the border with Senegal.
UN have sent more than 40 tons of food aid for distribution.
Army Chief Lt. Gen. Ousman Bargie said his men would not fight the ECOMIG forces that have been authorized by President Adama Barrow to depose Jammeh.
Bargie had recognized Bargie as his commander-in-chief on Friday.
"We are going to welcome them [ECOWAS forces] with flowers and make them a cup of tea. They will put their weapons there and we'll all enjoy the smiling coast," Bargie said. "This is a political problem. It's a misunderstanding. We are not going to fight Nigerian, Togolese or any military that comes."
Jammeh is under pressure to leave power. A deadline came and went, with no movement. Jammeh made new demands during the talks, but the incoming president and ECOWAS remained firm that he must depart power.
