Qt in Web Browser?
SGaist Lifetime Qt Champion
Do you mean some sort of plugin ? Or connecting to the application through tcp and have it rendered in a web browser ?
Just FYI, I looked at PHP-Qt (which stopped about 5 years ago), FireBreath (for cross-browser plugins), and many others. I've also looked at KDE and Cocos2d-x as alternatives or complementary to Qt. I've even looked at numerous other systems/tools/frameworks/IDEs.
I'm interested in the answers to the following questions:
Can apps be developed with Qt that run in web browsers (e.g., chrome, firefox, internet explorer and safari)?
If so, what are viable approaches that require "minimal" additional effort?
If browser apps can be developed with Qt, can one code base, with possibly some minor modifications, also be deployed to Android and iOS platforms?
SGaist Lifetime Qt Champion
IIRC there's a project called Vaudeville to render a Qt application on a html canvas that could be of interest to you
raven-worx Moderators
if you want to actively run the Qt application in the web-browser - meaning with the possibility of interaction - the browser has to execute the native code. Thus a browser plugin is necessary.
IIRC for the most browsers (Firefox, Chrome, ...) the netscape plugin interface needs to be implemented. For IE browsers a ActiveX control needs to be implemented and registered in the system (regsrv).
But i don't know whats the future of plug-in interfaces is anyway. Currently it seems that support for such plugins will be dropped sooner or later.
For example chrome drops netscape plugin support with new blink engine. Also microsoft removes it's activeX plugin capablities in IE browsers.

Texas Governor Backs Resolution Reaffirming Texas' Sovereignty Under 10th Amendment
The text of the 10th Amendment (last Amendment in the Bill of Rights):
Governor Perry:
See the news conference here:
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.Amazing concept!
Governor Perry:
"I believe that our federal government has become oppressive in its size, its intrusion into the lives of our citizens, and its interference with the affairs of our state," Gov. Perry said. "That is why I am here today to express my unwavering support for efforts all across our country to reaffirm the states' rights affirmed by the Tenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. I believe that returning to the letter and spirit of the U.S. Constitution and its essential 10th Amendment will free our state from undue regulations, and ultimately strengthen our Union."Read more about it here.

Today's score: SEALs 3, Pirates 0
The dramatic rescue over the weekend of Richard Phillips, the American merchant captain held hostage by pirates off the coast of Somalia, has captured my imagination and is proving to be one of those occasional stories I just can't read or hear often enough. Bob Greene's take on it is included in the above link.

Supplies: Paper by My Minds Eye; CS, Brads, Markers, ink, and Say it in Style Stamp set by CTMH; Chefabella stamp by Stampingbella
Just a quickie card using some scraps I had. I recently reorganized all my paper which wasn't too difficult a task since I try to keep my stash pretty reasonable. Right now all my paper and cardstock only fill my XXL Crop 'n Style 2/3 of the way so it really wasn't too big of a task. I used to have all my scraps in with my whole papers that matched it but found that that method just wasn't working out very well for me so I separated all my pattern scraps into one baggie so I can see them all. This also helps me use up scraps first when it comes to making cards ^_~ I used to do the same thing with my cardstock too but have separated them as well and boy is my paper ever so much easier to go through now! I just reach for the scrap baggies first and only if I don't have it there do I reach for a whole sheet to cut up. Anyway, that was my own little happy moment there, lol. I love getting stuff organized and am constantly reorganizing. I get just as much satisfaction from that as I do creating stuff, lol!
And just a fun pic of the girls being silly :D They said the cards were saying cheese when I was taking my pics of them and that they wanted to say cheese as well, lol. I know I'm biased, but I think they are way cuter than my cards!! Anyway, for an update real quick on the blog candy entries here are the links to the cards by player :
Jenn M.
Vicki W.
Be sure to check out their wonderful winter cards! Sparkle also created a darling card using this sketch but with a summer/fall theme which didn't count for the blog candy challenge but is darling none the less! Oh and Emilee, your post was the only one I couldn't leave a comment on, so just to let you know your card is adorable! I loved the sanded embossed background and how you made the image spot fit your snowmen, sentiment and those cute buttons! The blog candy winner will be posted later this afternoon! Thanks for playing ladies!

Dan's first day back at work
Dan went back to work today, and Calvin & I are doing well so far considering. I attempted to pump for the fist time, although it didnt last long after Monkey soiled his clothes and began to cry. After wheeling the bassinet into the bathroom, I actually even took a shower, all before 10 am. Not bad for the first day alone I say.

Book Review: Beyond the Veil (The Veil #1) by Pippa DaCosta
Book: Beyond the Veil (The Veil #1)
Plot: When a half-demon assassin walks into her life, leaving a trail of destruction in his wake, Muse must return to the one man she hoped never to see again and ask for help. The Prince of Greed isn't known for his charity. The price is high and the cost could tear her apart.Trapped between the malevolent intentions of a Prince of Hell, an assassin with ulterior motives and her bloodthirsty demon-kin, Muse must embrace the lure of chaos at her core; the demon inside her, in order to survive.(official synopsis)
Rating: 4/5
Nothing I haven't seen or heard before
Well technically the story theme and the whole path of the book wasn't something that I haven't read or seen before. It does appear to be another paranormal romance and it is actually in the nuisances and the events that the book differs a bit but in spite of that I would still say it a good series and worth trying
What difference I observed is that our female character is not the wannabe Alpha/ Beta/omega or gamma. It is very clear from the beginning that our girl is weak and knows very well about it but the author has made sure to not make her a weakling too but is she a classic damsel in distress? Oh yes! No doubt in that but it fortunately is not in your face and mocking the intelligence of the readers sort of distress and damsel and to make it spicier the author also has added lots of twists towards the end, which depending on your experience could give you Goosebumps or headache
What I hated is the fact that the author sort of just starts with the story directly without an initial introduction or gradual slipping into the whole story. You feel as if you have entered a party just before it is about to end. It opens right in the middle of the action and everything that happens and being said from thereon is done so in a manner that assumes that readers know all the back stories that is required to know
Language, characters and story is good and in spite the fact that the book lacks the eventual development and gradual steps towards the big ending, the book is a fun and entertaining read all thanks to the smoother and lighter narration. The story angles are all predictable but in spite of that is still fun

Remember When??
Remember when toys were amongst the most important things in your life? Toys were especially important to you if you were a child before cable television and video games. For me growing up in the 1970's, my free time was spent with Star Wars figures, Six Million Dollar Man toys, Mego super heroes, Fisher Price little people and adventure people, Rock-em Sock-em Robots and much much more! Oh the fun I had with those classic 1970's toys! The purpose of this blog is to document the good ol' days of vintage toys. Together we will recall the Toys 2 Remember!

The Hurt Locker Bats .667 at the Oscars
With The Hurt Locker winning 6 of the 9 Oscars it was nominated for including Best Picture, I thought I'd share my thoughts. I finally rented it Saturday partially based on the interview with Director Kathryn Bigelow and Screenwriter/Producer Mark Boal that I saw a couple weeks ago on The Rachel Maddow Show. For me, the movie was suspenseful and gave us a look at the human psyche under the strains of war. The movie felt like an intense portrayal of real-life sacrifice with the soul robbing realities of war which kind of explain post-traumatic stress disorder in a personal way. I don't want to say I enjoyed it, it's not that kind of movie. However, I stongly recommend it -- it is excellent. Incidently, Bigelow is the first woman in the 82-year history of the Oscars to win best director.

The new Network Monitor has caused frustrating problems for me and my team.
When enabling the Network Monitor, a property in .actionScriptProperties is set to true. This change can then be checked into SVN and subsequently other members of the team will pickup this property change.
Other members of the team may not have a Pro license though or may have the Network Monitor off. In these cases, the application doesn't work and even worse there is no error that would identify the problem.
The property forces the SWF to be built so that it communicates with the Network Monitor on a strange port like 37000. If the Network Monitor is not listening, the application simply does not work.
I do not agree with the choice to have a property set in .actionScriptProperties for the Network Monitor. It should work independently of any settings that may be checked into SVN.
At a minimum, the IDE should give a warning that you are building with a setting that will not work properly because you either don't have the correct license or because you don't have the Network Monitor on.

Last night I came home at 10:30 PM. There was only one car parked in our lot, the rest were parked next to it in the office building lot. I thought "Maybe my landlord is planning to plough the lot or something and asked those who were home to move their cars. I'll just park over here by them too."
Damn, was I wrong.
I walked to school this morning at 9:00 AM (I have a report from Chels that my car was there at that time). I came home this evening at 6:00 PM and remembered that I needed salsa for my blackbean/nacho wrap thing I make and I went to drive to the store in my car but - WTF its not there. And the lot is not ploughed and the other cars are in their right places.
So open up the phone book and call around, Hills - not there, Police - didn't do any towing today, (Maybe Dad took it to change the oil) Dad - "You better find where your car is, I'm going to call [partner in laywer firm that owns the building that towed your car]!" Southside - yep there, but can't release until office hours tommorrow. Called Dad back to let him know I found out where it was. He was upset that I couldn't get it until tommorrow and did a little more calling (police, the other partner, my landlord, southside...)
That is one good thing about my Dad he will stand up for me. I am way too passive to try and get things like having someone open the tow lot at 7:00 PM (even though he was unsuccessful). Any time I am wronged by a someone he's got my back.
So, now I am just way embarassed and feel really stupid that I thought I was SUPPOSED to park where my car would get towed. I did my cry thing cause no one was home to comfort me and watched the movie my secret santa sent me. It was Amelie and a welcomed upper to the current situation.
I am worried about him, he is an only child and now both of his parents are gone. I think this is going to be a hard Christmas for him. He is such a jokester, it is hard to imagine him in such sorrow.
i should be studying before my database final but what better than blogging!
Raba and her fiancé were driving late one summer evening in his Toyota RAV 4 when they were attacked by a band of men engaged in a popular and profitable postoccupation occupation: carjacking. As they were violently booting the fiancé from the car, one of the men decided that Raba would make a nice addition to the evening's spoils. But as he was attempting to rape her in the back seat, the intrepid--more furious than afraid, she says--Raba pulled open the door handle and flung herself from the speeding car. The next day, her fiancé and her brother went to the police station to report the stolen car. They didn't file anything regarding the attempted rape, since, as she says, neither they nor the cops were interested.
The Nation
so, i got a ride to work from my friend trevor and left a frantic message on my mom's cell begging her to pick me up and float me a loan to pay to get it off my car. being at work yesterday was less than desirable as it was the reason i had to drive to school all semester long - otherwise i would have walked. in the end everything worked out, but i wanted to crawl under a rock for a while.
plan for next semester: BUY A PARKING PERMIT
*for those that don't know a boot is put on your car tire and then you can't drive it.
i am also working on the new homepage for online learning here at bemidji state and i am having major problems trying to get tabbed navigation to float right with a banner to the left in css. i'm about ready to scrap the tabs and use tables (the horror).
tabbed navigation, breadcrumbs...yea!
and more on it
and finally a little success in IE
i think i could handle things better if i knew - one way or another.
if i'm ever going to get over you, i need to be mad at you for a little while. i have to go from the extreme of loving and obsessing over you to the extreme of being really mad and bitter at you. hopefully after this comes friendship and normal relations.
my heart doesn't hurt so much anymore. i don't feel like i'm going crazy anymore. i've made a concious decision to stop putting myself through that.
a song playing on the cd player at work stopped me dead in my sweeping duty - it was about a girl who waited too long for nothing.
and you don't read this anymore, so i can post this here and it won't matter.

Sooooo, we had to try again. We went to the Bass Pro Shop this morning because we had heard great things. It was great. Olive still wouldn't sit in Santa's lap, but she did give him a high five and she talked to him! This was huge! Still not the greatest picture ever, but so much better than the first one!
Maybe next year, she will sit in his lap!

Panorama | Contemporary World Cinema
With his long, craggy face and his rough, sonorous drawl, Harry Dean Stanton was a mainstay of American screen acting. This film is his valediction—a funny, poignant portrait of a man approaching death with all the dignity he can muster. Single and self-reliant, Stanton's Lucky lives life on his own terms. His daily routine involves yoga exercises, afternoon TV and a full pack of smokes. Counselled by his doctor (Ed Begley, Jr.) to acknowledge his impending death, our hero begins to take stock of his life. There to offer wisdom are bar owner Elaine (Beth Grant), her lover Paulie (James Darren) and, in a splendid role as Lucky's best friend, none other than David Lynch.
Moving at a leisurely pace, the film is nonetheless engaging at every moment. It's impossible to take your eyes off Stanton: in his performance you see history, both that of his character and that of an actor with a lifetime of excellence behind him. It's a movie of superb monologues: Lynch on the loss of his pet tortoise, Darren on the redemptive power of love and Stanton on the meaning of life and death. Watch this one for a chance to see characters that sparkle, and for a long, loving look at one of America's great performers.
"[An] outstanding comedy… Everything Harry Dean Stanton has done in his career, and his life, has brought him to his moment of triumph."—Joe Leydon, Variety

The upper and lower houses of the Swiss Parliament have ratified a deal between the Swiss and U.S. governments to share information on approximately 4,450 U.S.-based customers of Swiss bank UBS with the U.S. government.
The lower house had voted earlier this week to approve the deal, a week after rejecting it, on the condition that the deal first be submitted to a nationwide voter referendum (see Swiss Lower House Votes in Favor of UBS Deal and Swiss Lower House Rejects UBS Deal). The upper house approved the deal earlier this month without requiring a referendum (see Swiss Legislators Support U.S. Tax Deal).
The two chambers voted Thursday to approve the deal without requiring a referendum, which would have delayed the handover of information beyond the August 2010 deadline in the original deal.
The Swiss and U.S. governments agreed last August for UBS to turn over information on up to 4,450 of its U.S.-based account holders, but a Swiss court later ruled against the agreement, saying it violated the countrys banking secrecy laws and would need to be ratified by the Swiss Parliament.
UBS welcomes todays Swiss parliamentary approval of the U.S.-Swiss government agreement, said UBS in a statement. This vote is an important step to support the resolution at the governmental level. UBS continues to focus on its comprehensive and timely compliance with all obligations under its separate settlement agreements with the U.S. Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission, and is confident that this will be achieved by the relevant deadlines in August 2010.
UBS signed a deferred prosecution agreement with the Justice Department in February 2009, agreeing to pay $780 million in fines, penalties, interest and restitution. However, the Internal Revenue Service subsequently sued UBS, seeking information on approximately 52,000 UBS account holders based in the U.S. before the two governments agreed to a deal last August involving 4,450 accounts. Several former UBS clients have since pleaded guilty to tax charges.

Question About Competitive Recruitments
Hi! I do not attend an SEC school or any school that has ultra competitive recruitment, but as I am from the North and know very little about Greek Life besides what I've read on this website in the past few months, I'm fascinated by large Greek systems and competitive recruitments.
I was watching the University of Arkansas Bid Day 2016 video, and the Director of Greek Life stated that something like 1650 girls registered for recruitment, and a little over 1400 bids were extended(my numbers may be off, though). To someone who isn't very knowledgeable about SEC recruitment like me, 1400/1650 seems pretty good(considering there had to have been some girls who withdrew earlier in the week or maybe even a few who didn't show up to recruitment at all).
So my question is this: What exactly is it that makes these large recruitments so competitive? Do a lot of girls not get bids to their #1 choice chapter?
Disclaimer: I hope this thread doesn't come across like I'm challenging what everyone on Greek Chat has been saying for years! I certainly believe you all when you say SEC recruitment is competitive. I'm just trying to fill in the blanks! Thanks!

Friday, July 30th. Today's cherished Nugget from guest blogger Pastor Bill.
"Always do right. This will gratify most people, and astonish the rest." Mark Twain
In a day when the world expects the worst in people, it is time to over deliver by doing the right thing. First of all, we must remember and choose to follow the words of Jesus in Matthew 5:44-48:
"God, let my walk with You encourage others.
"I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect."
Bro. Bill
God loves you!

The Bulls Are Out of BreathThe market had a great bullish run of +10% in $SPY in six weeks since the September lows. Last week the bulls were exhibiting signs of exhaustion and were running out of breath in their advance to punch through the ceiling of 213.34 in $SPY from mid June. Institutions came in droves beginning of the week on Monday and by Wednesday, they had started getting rid of all retail and technology related stocks with increasing volume.
The $SPY dropped by 3% in the last 3 days of trading. Leading sectors $XLY and $XLK that had been doing so well for the last 5 months, dropped by 5% within just a few sessions. Currently they are all trading below the 34 day ema. It took the market several weeks to gain 10% only to lose more than a third of that gain within a week. None of the sectors were spared last week because there are signs of lack of global demand. Oil has begun to slide down to $40 a barrel and other commodities like copper, silver, gold and other metals use in the industrial sector are reaching their all time lows.
Conserve your portfolioThis is the time to be very defensive with your portfolio and to stay disciplined. Cut your losses with any position that hits your loss target. Retail apparel stores really took it on the chin last week with some stores like $M, $TIF, $JWN and $DDS dropping by 15% to 18% with disappointing earnings and outlook. Other retail related firms like $ULTA and $NKE dropped by 10%. The retail apparel sector depend on increasing sales and earnings from back to school season to buy their merchandize for holiday sales. They make 40% of their yearly profits in the last 6 weeks of the year. Their disappointing sales and profits in the third quarter means that they will have less capital at their disposal to fill their stores with merchandize for holiday sales. Outlook for the retail sector is not good and as such it is best to cut your losses and conserve your capital for the next opportunity in other leading sector.
Some of us are still licking our wounds from the deep correction we had on August 24th. We do not want to be in that position ever again. The market has repeatedly dropped down from 8 day ema to 34 day ema in as little as 3 to 5 sessions during minor correction of 5% to 10%. Hoping that the position you have will recoup the losses and come back in the next couple of sessions is not a good strategy. If the position has met its loss target than it is time to pull the plug on the position before a minor loss turns into a major one.
Positions Closed out for a LossThe first week of November was the sixth week of the rally and the market was making rapid advances to all time highs of June on $SPY. Last year in mid October, the market took off for the following 6 weeks in a similar manner only to take a breather by end of November. The market moved sideways for the following several weeks after that. I have held losing positions in the past that met their loss target for a session or two, only to have that minor loss turn into a major one. Last Friday I closed out my debit spread option position on $ORLY for a loss because the stock dropped to the loss threshold on my trade plan for that position. I closed out my November credit spread option position on $NKE for a loss too. I could have waited 5 more sessions for the option to expire but there is the inherent risk of the stock going even further below my loss target which loses me even more money.
Stocks on the HorizonCurrently we have 11 distribution days (days of heavy institutional selling volume) and most of them have occurred in the last two weeks - which is very concerning to me. This is not the time to put out a lot of cash for new bullish positions. Asian markets of Japan (-1%) and Hong Kong (-1.5%) are down as of 9.30 pm Sunday evening as I am preparing this post. Some of the stocks that have still maintained their momentum are:

Day 2 at Hansa was great! I had lots of energy and low pain. Another long day – 9am to almost 5.
Additions to the treatment included the PowerPlate (a vibration machine that assists with exercise and toning, I may have t invest in one of these cool things) and an hour long full body massage by a very talented therapist who has incredible knowledge and started out in sports therapy.
Hansa has 2 floors and I kept forgetting things so I went upstairs )not using the elevator) 6 times. This was an enormous feat for me!
After the massage I went back to the hotel, and crashed. All that stair climbing did me in – and well, honestly, it's been years since I've been out of bed so long!
That said – this is being written after lunch on day 3, because I was too tired to write last night.
Today started out pretty slow. I slept about 12 hours (not straight through, but still, it was good) and had a hard time getting up. It was rough moving and I was pretty nauseated. The doc said it was due to detox, and he gave me something to help bind the toxins so I don't have such bad effects from it. What a concept! I'm still a little slow moving, but I feel better than I did this morning and am looking forward to the afternoon therapies.
I'll be back later with a download of information from the doctor and a lunch video that sparked a lot of discussion in my head.

E-mail scam costs woman $400K
In the past, I wrote and gave links to read and learn how to recognize and deal with junk/spam/scam mails. Unfortunately, many people are still vulnerable to these kinds of scams. As long as we live, there will be a generation past, generation present and generation future.
Here is a video of a woman who lost $400,000 in a one Nigerian e-scam. She shared her story to warn us.
- The generation past might have a lot of knowledge about scams based on experience and in that generation there will be bad guys trying to scam all generations.
- The generation present is learning on how to stay away from scams, also, in that generation, there will be those who will keep on inventing new scamming techniques.
- The generation future will mostly likely be the vulnerable one and in their group too, will most likely emerge successors of the bad guys from the two generations.

Credit Cards & Loans
UK businesses unwittingly make it easier for credit card fraudsters
Analysis by identity protection specialists Ground Labs, has found that the vast majority of UK businesses hold consumer credit card data unknowingly.
Holding credit card details in this way is a breach of Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS) compliance obligations and can attract up to a £500,000 fine by the Information Commissioner Officer (ICO) in a case of a data breach.
Latest figures show that £341m was stolen in the UK in 2011 through credit card fraud.
There is a global black market for credit card data and hacking incidents have risen by 19% in the past six months.
The UK is consistently among the top three most targeted countries and in August 2012 suffered 69% of worldwide phishing attacks. Phishing attacks are
Mohamed Zouine, European director for Ground Labs, said: "What we have found is that even those businesses that believe that their systems are clean are carrying records that could be easily acquired by hackers.
"We believe a routine check should be as frequent as anti-virus checks. There are many ways in which card details can remain on business's IT infrastructure unwittingly.
"Transaction logs sent back from banks, browser caches, email duplications and more can hold sensitive data that has a black market value in the wrong hands and can be used to defraud consumers."
Ground Labs found that most businesses held some form of credit card information after its use.
Even businesses that claim to be compliant with agreed global standards for credit card data security hold rogue details, the Ground Labs survey has found.
There are various possible reasons for this, all linked to standard computer processes such as browser caches or email duplications.
Amongst the worst examples uncovered was a company that firmly believed it had no records.
It was found that the business actually held more than 20 million credit card numbers on servers throughout its network.
Many UK businesses have adopted an open mind, accepting there may be hidden data, and have already taken steps to identify and resolve any possible problems.
Ground Labs is advocating the use of a simple software programmes as part of businesses' standard systems maintenance routine to detect and remove credit card details.
Zouine added: "The issue for small businesses is that they are far less protected than large corporations. It is relatively easy for an entrepreneurial thief to steal IT equipment or hack in to a business and retrieve valuable credit card data."

Dedicated to the living of an authentic faith that transforms people and trascends barriers in a divided world! Comments on the Christian Life from Sam Jackson, church-planting pastor of Hope Community Church in Racine, WI

We Need to Keep Talking
Talking about race can wear you down. I'm growing weary of talking about race myself. It hurts my heart, wears out my soul and sorely tests my patience. Yet, as I've had the opportunity to observe many heated conversations regarding race in light of events in Ferguson, MO, I've reached a stunning conclusion - we need to keep talking! Let me start with an assumption - as dangerous as those are - that most folks reading this essay have a heart for racial justice - or justice period. The perspectives and points of view may differ, but the hearts of each of you long to see a day when people,especially people of faith, somehow approach their potential for loving across all barriers, especially barriers of race. Language does not help us in our discussion, especially the words racist and racism. They are highly charged words that lead us down a path of blame and guilt which are at the core of America's race issues. In his book "Disintegration" Eugene Robinson establishes a helpful framework to get beyond the blame/guilt tennis match. First, Robinson uses a term that I believe helps address the issue without finger pointing in the process. He states that the US is "racialized". What does that mean? It means that due to our deep and complex history regarding race, the issue of race impacts almost every aspect of US life. That impact may be negligible, subtle, obvious or debatable, but it is very present. The particular issue in view at any given time may be seen from different perspectives, but all involved will know that race is a factor, though individual and corporate experiences may hinder the various perspectives owned from being understood by others. This fact is a necessary starting point in discussions of race. Our experiences and perspectives differ by virtue of our ethnic, social, economic and even linguistic backgrounds. This difference in perspective reminds me of a Classic Star Trek episode where due to a transporter problem, Capt. Kirk finds himself in a parallel plane with the crew. They can all see the bridge of the ship, but they can only see each other at certain instances and even then, they cannot hear each other and can only communicate by hand signals. Racial experiences in the US are a lot like that. We all share a common space, but simultaneously different experiences. When our paths cross regarding racial issues, we're all passionately communicating from our perspectives, frustrated that we cannot communicate what we're experiencing and not understanding the lack of communication when we share common space at the same time! Well, the complex and yet simple answer is we live in parallel universes, sharing common space at a common time, yet having particular experiences within that framework that are real for us but largely unknown to those around us of a different background. Why is this so critical? It's critical because we need to understand our starting points before we attempt to engage in meaningful conversation and then we need to talk to each other and keep on talking. We need to share some stories - as painful as that can be - to at least get a grip on why our passions run so strong and our hurts are often felt so deeply. We need to de-politicize this issue and "gracify" it, giving and receiving much grace as we share the truth in love. After almost 400 years of strife, this battle will be one we fight to the grave. Nevertheless, until we can consistently talk to each other, as tiring as it is, no progress will be made. We'll spin our wheels on the treadmill of blame and guilt until Jesus comes back...and He won't be happy.

Spoilers Ensue!
I watched the episode recap, and realized that if since the doll's memories are wiped after each date, they probably don't actually have a lot of consensual sex. The concept of that is absolutely wretched to me, and the metaphor is beyond sad. Either it is a stand in for people who refuse to acknowledge victims of sex crimes, or how rich people get away with far more than those they are exploiting. I'm going to with the second one, just because that's in line with the show's hackneyed-before-the-crash theme of "Rich People Suck."
The opener is this syrupy pop number with a techno grind in the background that's being sung by a super athletic cross between Beyoncé Knowles and Brittany Spears wearing sparkly bra, belly dancer jingle belt and a thong. She's pretty much wearing convention gear.
It's a pretty neat set piece and it helps that this young lady can really move. So she singing about how everyone wants to have some sort exotic relations with pop stars and WHOA THAT OTHER GIRL IS ON FIRE! Goddammit she was cute! What the hell man? This show just keeps getting worse!
The stage crew puts the girl out (with a fire extinguisher. . which I don't think you're supposed to do, I think you are supposed to use a blanket) and hustle Beyoncé Spears off the stage. Pan out to a horrified audience, everyone agog except one guy, who looks like he got a D in gym class, because guys who get D's in gym class always become creepy later in life.
We check in on Harry J. Lennix, who is still a grouchy bad-ass thank you very much, as he is being examined by a doctor who may make deep angry facial scars the next fashion thing (she does rock them well) who warns him that broad arrows do more damage when removed (amazing how that fact made it into the show). All praise to Lennix because he makes the most cliched things sound completely awesome. This is the man who made Aaron the Moore much more than merely Elizabethan stereotype in Titus, so I'd except nothing less, but still, it's nice to see.
Dushku's new roommate is very exotic looking. Ridges on the forehead exotic. She's also two feet wide and four inches thick, and looks very natural while running, much like a gazelle.
Then we cut to Helo's apartment, where Suspicious Hoodie Man is trying to break into his apartment. Adorable Chef Girl opens the door to her apartment sort of thinking it's Helo, and then realizing it's actually his greasy Russian informant. The have a rather terse conversation that's mostly lies on his part and concern for personal safety on hers. It's like they're already on a first date or something.
She promises to give him a message and the Troika's card, and he rolls out, looking all greasy and sinister.
Meanwhile Olivia Williams has a new customer! Looking damned hot as always, she greets Ringo Star New Millienium Edition, who is Beyoncé Spears manager. Apparently someone's being trying to kill the startlet, once in Kansas City (HOLLA!) and again in Philadelphia (GO EAGLES!). So she needs protection from someone she can trust, because an entourage of expensive former Marines and ex-Navy Seals, well, that ain't gonna cut it, says Ringo. No. I need. Il Dushku.
Cut to our heroine singing. Badly. In really tight hipster jeans. And she's singing this song that is not just bad, it is really stupid. It's so bad it wouldn't shock me to hear it on the radio. Beyoncé Spears finds her intriguing, because her manager, Ringo, says she's trouble. Reverse psychology works on girls because they're dumb, tee-hee! Beyoncé strides over and starts singing the crappy song too, and despite the terrible lyrics they sound good.
Beyoncé says "Get her working," of Duskhu and saunters off. Ringo says she got the job and Beyoncé shouts "Why isn't she working yet?!" from off camera.
And then the opening credits. They get more depressing with each viewing.
Dr. Sexy Scars walks up on Topher the Tech and give him an earful about sending Dushku out on a dangerous mission so soon after being bow-hunted. Topher says that since that last one was supposed to be romantic and turned high-risk this one that's supposed to be high-risk may turn out romantic. Then he purrs at the thought of girl-on-girl and everyone who thought Whedon's work was feminist facepalms for the 80th time.
Also, I am now sure that Topher the Tech is a douche-nozzle. "You're both going to get married and have scowly babies" he says to the doc when she refers to Lennix's character by familiars. Which is funny, but he's really being a dick.
Then, somewhere else, Dushku takes her top off and puts on something even smaller than the Delia's bra she was wearing and then Beyoncé freaks out because someone has a mint. Everyone take 5!
Helo! Where have you been?! I miss you and I want to snuggle with you and your unfailingly moral characterization because this show is lame so far. Helo grills the Russian dude, who says Dollhouse is an urban legend. End Scene.
Back to the mission. Topher acts like douche again, while Lennix frets about Dushku's singing. It's really adorable because he's a total bad-ass. Then pan down and it's goddamned Russian gangster in the memory wipe chair! Dude! Major plot twist, just kind off-handed thrown in there. I don't know what I was expecting, and I guess intense music and editing would've made it stupid. At least we know what the male dolls get used for: misdirection. Because masculine sexuality is disgusting or funny.
So the guy who failed gym goes through metal detector in front of the concert; and then they hand his crutches which they didn't check for, you know, a disassembled rifle. Which is what I would have checked for.
"Check his crutches!" I'd say to my minions, and they'd be all like "Why?" and I'd say "Because that dude clearly got pegged in dodgeball when he was a lad and is therefor a sociopath who hides weapons in medical supplies."
"Dude!" They'd say as they found bullbup sniper rifle broken down and hid there and I'd say "That's why I make the big bucks."
I digress. The show goes fine, for some reason despite Mr. D-in-Gym assembling the rifle on one of the catwalks. I guess he breaks it down again and leaves. Probably a dry run. He's a meticulous psycho, since he only understands math and never played football. Then they go to a club, where we see HEY! Dushku's new roommate the Human Gazelle! She has been implanted with the personality of a drooling Beyoncé fan-girl, and is far less attractive for it, which speaks to her acting chops.
I realized as watched this Dushku was actually doing an accent, but since she was so subtle about it, it worked rather well. She really sounds like from a rough neighborhood on the east-coast. Nice touch. Then she throws a paparazzo over railing because he looked threatening.
Meanwhile D-in-Gym is right there in the club and no one is the wiser. Gah!
And cut to Helo! (SNUGGLES!) Troika Doll passes a tip to our favorite agent that there's abandoned hotel where he find all of his answers. Helo are you going to fall for this? If you die who will I non-sexually cuddle with after a hard day of dealing harsh justice? So he goes the hotel where he gets jumped by bunch of gangsters, and he totally owns them, ever after getting shot. Helo then asks about Dollhouse, and they insist they don't know. It's possible that all of them are male Dolls like the Russian Doll, so his admission means nothing now.
Cut back to Dushku.
In the big reveal of the show apparently Beyoncé Spears has always been in communication with Mr. D-In-Gym and wants him to kill her so she can be free. I'm sure this supposed to summon up some degree of sympathy, but I too, failed gym class, so ice water runs in my veins.
Beyoncé Spears is a whining spoiled little diva and I really don't give a damn if she wants to die. She went through all the trouble to find a reject from Freaks and Geeks who's a decent shot, more power to her! She's put more effort into her own demise than she does into her singing! This is supposed to be some sort of commentary on the price of fame or something and how it warps you, but I NEED to care characters here! Every time Dushku gets sent off to do something it's always for a miserable person I wouldn't piss on if they were on fire. Dushku's character when she has no personality is the most likable person at Dollhouse.
Beyoncé Spears takes the stage, even though Dushku is like Dude, WTF? You want to die? Don't go out there! You hired only four days ago, but in Hollywood time it's like been through two tours in Vietnam, and Spears is all Whatev! Going to dance my last dance, See ya.
Dushku runs around back stage looking for Ringo, and she's stopped by one of his assistants. He tells her to get stage left, and she's like "Where's Ringo?!" and he says "Oh, I'll take you there myself!" all haughty and grabs her arm. She wrenches free and says "I will smack you!" which was delivered with such panache I giggled a little.
Meanwhile, D-In-Gym is putting his rifle together, which isn't a bull-bup, while Beyoncé dances. She stops and asks him to show himself, and instead has to bring out the Human Gazelle so she doesn't get left hanging. D-In-Gym gets a comfortable position and adjusts his windage for "Concert Hall."
Dushku finds Ringo, tells him the score and he says shut the show down. The head of security insists that's balderdash because she's a backup singer so she makes a move toward the stage, he tries to stop her and gets dropped like a bag of wet mice by the might of Il Dushku.
Okay, really tiny people dropping much larger people like they were French Lit. 101 ain't gonna get old anytime soon.
Dushku finds the guy with a spot light and he fires two rounds that were apparently aimed at The Darkness, because they hit nothing, security clears the show and we cut to Helo in an ambulance.
Oh, Helo please don't die! I have a perfectly wholesome crush that I couldn't possibly go to Hell for, and you're the only person on this show-perhaps all of TV these days-with strong moral fiber! Don't go towards the light! Good makeup, though. Helo looks like he's gonna die.
Backstage, Beyoncé is laying into Dushku for stopping her show, because she has been made mentally retarded by her own self involvement.
There's a line here that struck me as well beyond the regular range of the show here: "They grow you in a lab?! [cute] You know anything about people? They love to see me die. 80 years old they'll be talkin' about tonight sayin they were there when. . ." That's brutal, relative to the rest of the show, at least.
Also, the line "You can fire me, but bitch don't think you can take me!" was also totally sweet.
The Human Gazelle tries to make her way backstage and instead gets nabbed by Mr. D-in-Gym, and he proceeds to make an al-Qaida style video with her via the internets. He establishes that they have what could be the most toxic co-dependent relationship ever when he explains that he kills for her and she was supposed to die for him. Then he says "You have my number call me." and Ringo smacks her for being not only crazy, but also putting one of her supposed fans at risk.
Back at the office, "Sierra's been kidnapped" is spoken to Olivia Williams, and she proves that she wasn't that great in gym class either with her astonishingly cold assessment of why it happened: we knew about all this and the Human Gazelle was bait for a pale-nerdy hyena. Fuel up the choppers that no one seems to notice, we got an OP!
Cut Back to D-In-Gym, who makes The Human Gazelle sing acapella under the harsh lights of his camera. She's scared out of her little mind and it's really, really creepy to watch. I know it's there for tension and stuff. . but the lighting is just so perfect bright light in sociopath's basement, it's scary.
Beyoncé is off somewhere being a Diva and Dushku's all like, you're a bitch, save the Gazelle! Beyoncé is having none of it so Dushku hits her with a chair. That's how you negotiate! She calls D-In-Gym and class and offers an exchange: The Diva for the Gazelle.
Meantime, Dollhouse is freaking out, because Topher the Tech is so full of himself that he's sure that this would play out differently, and the head of security is up in his grill asking WTF? and most Topher can do is whine about how he's a genius and can't predict everything. So. Not a genius.
Lennix is on the case, though! And Dushku gets Beyoncé to admit she doesn't want die by throwing her off something high with a bungee cord. Then she beats the stuffing out Mr. D-In-Gym and then pistol whips him for a little extra spice.
Olivia Williams tells the head of security, who wants to get ride of Dushku, as much with her wonderful hips as with her voice, that he is a tool and probably shouldn't make policy suggestions.
Dr. Sexy Scars and Lennix discuss the impressive way Dushku was able to come with a plan that was 1. Awesome and 2. completely sensible when dealing with crazy people.
Meanwhile we hear that damned awful song again, about being from misery or history or calories or something, and we cut Adorable Chef Girl, who is trying to visit Helo in the hospital, but isn't allowed in because she's not family. Helo has no family, and it's rather sad.
Finally, The Human Gazelle and Dushku pass each other in hall, and Dushkus shakes her head at her like they should be seeing being snuggly in public, which they probably shouldn't since when they're blank the have no feelings.
-Helo didn't die! Yay!
-I'm not really sure what they're playing at with the Sierra/Echo relationship. Naturally that kind of closeness is unacceptable at the Dollhouse, but I'm not sure what it's supposed to mean within the metaphors and meanings of the show. I mean, of course, everyone loves lesbianism because it's oh-so-hot so they needed to find a way to work some sort of tension like that into the show; otherwise men wouldn't watch it.
-Speaking of what this show assumes, it assumes two things: every man except Helo is a violent asshole, a liar, a manipulator or a conflicted man of morality and men in the audience are rendered mentally retarded by female sexuality no matter how silly it is.
-I'm intrigued enough that might continue watching. . . guess I'll have to the next episode to be sure. Dammit.
-Tycho Agrees with me, apparently
-There's no way you can fit a hunting rifle into a pair aluminum crutches
Dollhouse Season 1 Episode 3: I'd be Frightened of that Stage, too.

It has received two staged readings over the past six months. This play is the culmination of about a year's worth of interviews and research about the African country of Mozambique in 1992.

The plot centers around a unique group of six people at a bar called "Freedom" in Beira, Mozambique. The country's civil war just ended, but we cannot say the same for our characters. Two Americans, two Africans, and two Russians try to escape the sins of their pasts and find home.

More updates will be posted here as they are available. As of yet, the play has a crew and potential space. Production is set for July. Please contact me if interested.jon.alexandratoshttp://firstname.lastname@example.com

A commentary titled "The surprising reason why CEOs should be social media savvy" provides us with a fresh new perspective on how firms should craft their social media strategies by focusing on the firm's CEO and how their social media presence contributes to the branding of the firm.
Brian Chesky, the CEO of Airbnb posted this simple question on his twitter platform.
This sparks thousands of conversations from the floor, ranging from actionable product ideas like providing cleaning-up services, service extension ideas like meal booking/parties add-ons options to ideas about refining the brand corporate social responsibility, such as environmental conservation efforts and reducing discrimination among the community.
This crowdsourcing movement for suggestions by Airbnb CEO Brain Chesky exemplifies how brands are engaging in a 2-way communication with its consumers. This 2-way communication or interactive, communication model is emphasized in this movement and it goes to show how important this 2-way model is in creating long term customer relationships and brand building for companies.
This approach allows the online users to send in their suggestions, feedbacks and comments and even more importantly, their ideas were heard and being considered by the company's highest ranking executive, which undoubtedly contributes to retaining and strengthening the brand loyalty.
Overall, Chesky's twitter brainstorming session doubled as a way to generate fresh ideas, inputs and promotes its upcoming projects Airbnb has in mind.
Till next time,
Osmium Digital
