This was especially true when I made the jump from developing Java applications to developing for iOS in Objective-C. In this presentation, I will share my experience in making the switch from server-side development to mobile, and introduce programming in Objective-C by comparing its features and syntax to Java.Brian Munzenberger has 8 years of experience in all aspects of the software development lifecycle. Past projects include B2B, B2C, and large-scale e-commerce applications. Throughout his career Brian has worked with a wide range of companies from small startups to large corporations. Brian brings his passion for development and knowledge of large-scale applications to the world of iOS.Google TV Basics and Boundaries / Android / AuditoriumGoogle's Android operating system provides the underlying foundation for Google TV, allowing developers to create applications that extend the system's functionality. Google's Chrome browser provides a gateway to the Internet, allowing consumers to browse web sites and watch television, in tandem. Consumers can access HBO, CNBC, and content from other providers through the Chrome browser. Partners have built applications that allow customers to access content in unique ways. Netflix, for example, has built an application that allows customers to access Netflix's large library of movies and television shows. Android and Apple smartphones may be used as remote controls for Google TV. Google TV products ship with wireless remote controls with a full QWERTY keypad. An update in November 2011 allows access to the Android Market and increased the search to find content from live TV, Netflix, YouTube, HBO GO, and more.This session will introduce you to building Android applications for the Google TV platform. You'll learn what "Smart TV" is, or should be; what the landscape for multi-screen, multi-device development looks like; where Google TV fits and why it matters; how to build basic applications for Google TV; and some valuable tips about design and development practices for the big screen Charlie Collins is the director of development at MOVL, where he helps create apps that allow connected TVs and mobile devices to interact. MOVL is driving innovation in the social TV app revolution by creating connectivity between smartphones and smart TVs through its MOVL Connect Platform. The proprietary platform, officially open to developers, allows for quick deployment of multi-user, multi-device and multi-platform applications. Connect.movl.com offers tools, examples, documentation, APIs and support to developers looking to create multi-screen experiences.Charlie has worked on several open source projects and has a strong background in web applications and web services.Charlie was also the coauthor of Manning's Unlocking Android: A Developers Guide, , Android in Practice: A Developers Guide and GWT in PracticeConnecting Millions of Devices With the Cloud / Cross Platform / AuditoriumMobile devices are ideal data capture and presentation points. They offer boundless opportunities for data collection and the presentation of temporally- and spatially-relevant data. The most compelling mobile applications will require aggregation, analysis and transformation of data from many devices and users. But intermittent network connectivity and constrained processing, storage, bandwidth and battery resources present significant obstacles.Highlighted with real-world applications, this session will cover challenges and approaches to device data collection; device-device and device-cloud data synchronization; and cloud-based data aggregation, analysis and transformation.Marty Schoch is a Washington DC based software developer/engineer/architect with CouchBase. Marty's current passions are Mobile, Distributed Data, Big Datasets and Data Visualization.

Corona SDK (http://www.anscamobile.com/corona/) is a tool to make 2D physics-based (and non-physics-based) games and simple apps. It workson both PCs (Android only) and Macs (Android and iOS) – the same code can be used for both.Steve Keinath is a programming teacher at Jackson Area Career Center in Jackson, Michigan. He teaches local area 11th and 12th graders how to program by making apps and games for mobile devices using Corona SDK. They have a lab of PCs with one Mac. The first part of the year, students go through pre-made lessons to learn the basics of programming for apps and games.Steve will bring some of his students to help present and demo at MobiDevDay.Open Hacking If you want to try your hand at Android or iOS Development, there will an area set a side for hacking. I've been in contact with several Android and iOS developers who have agreed to spend an hour or two or three in the hacking area helping you out. Bring projects of your own or try something you hear about at one of the Sessions.We'll be listing the names and bios of developers who have volunteered to help out in the Open Hacking area. You will be in good hands. We'll be listing environment requirements shortly.Open SpacesHow OpenSpace WorksWe are trying something new at this DevDay. If you are an attendee who feels you get more out of the conversations and networking you do at a DevDay, you are going to love this.During MobiDevDay you will have to opportunity to participate in OpenSpaces in the Loft area just outside of the Auditorium.OpenSpace is a small set of rules that allow groups of people to interact in a simple, productive, organized way to create valuable dialogs that address the participants' most important issues.The Fundamental "Rules" of the sessions that happen during OpenSpace conferences are:Whoever shows up is the right groupWhatever happens is the only thing that could haveWhenever it starts is the right timeWhen it's over, it's over.To lead an OpenSpace Talk:Come up with an interesting topic and title for your discussion.Fill out a schedule Post-It for your topic.You don't need to develop these before the conference; most of the ideas will come to you during the event.Place the topic on the schedule.If you see topics that have something in common, consider combining them into a single time slot.If a significant number of people want to attend your discussion and another discussion in the same time slot, try to trade into another time slot to ensure maximum dialog and participation.To attend an OpenSpace Talk:Check the schedule and sign up for a talk or just drop in if you wish.Use the 'Law of two feet.' If you feel that you are not contributing or benefiting from a presentation, please feel free to move on to something else.Allow the discussion convener to steer his or her topic. If you have an opposing opinion that needs a full time slot you should feel free to add your own OpenSpace slot to discuss the topic.
We cannot refund tickets after April 2nd. It just cuts it too close.

Qa How Can I Secure

May 19th, 2012

Question by StewDogg: How can I secure a door that opens outward without a lock?
II am renting so I can’t really throw a deadbolt on it, but this back door needs secured. If it opened inward it would be a cinch, but not so much outward. What is a fairly unintrusive but effective measure that hopefully I can find at Lowes or the like?

Best answer:

Answer by Sean
use a hasp…

It won’t keep someone out who is determined to get in but then what lock will. There are differing styles of hasps and you may want to check them out to see what would work best for your situation.

Martha Rosler: Cuba, January 1981

Back To Current Exhibitions

Opening reception: Friday, April 20, 6-8pm

Mitchell-Innes & Nash is pleased to announce Cuba, January 1981, an exhibition of photographs by Martha Rosler, on view in the Chelsea gallery from April 20 – May 26. This series of color and black-and-white images, including several diptychs, has never before been exhibited.

In early 1981, Rosler and a group of other artists and intellectuals joined a cultural tour organized by Ana Mendieta and Lucy Lippard. Traveling around the island from Havana to Camaguey, Santiago, and Trinidad, and points in between, Rosler photographed shops, buildings, and people, as well as the posters and billboards that punctuated the roads and urban spaces. About the period during which the images were taken, Rosler has said:

January 1981 marked the end of the 1970s, not only for the obvious reasons but because it marked the moment after Reagan's election and before his inauguration, after the discourses of détente, human rights, and egalitarianism and before the onslaught of neoliberalism, anti-terrorism and militarist adventurism and supply-side "trickle-down" rhetoric masking the huge upward redistribution of wealth. The Mariel "boatlift" from Cuba to Florida had just ended in October, just in time for Reagan's election in November. But the meaning of the 80s – for us as well as for the Cubans we met – was still located only in our nightmares and fears, not yet realized.

Bracketed chronologically by Rosler's well-known photo-text work The Bowery in two inadequate descriptive systems (1974/75) and her highly influential essay In, around and afterthoughts (on documentary photography) (1981), this series takes its place alongside Rosler's photographs of airports, roads, shop windows, and public transportation as part of a career-long photographic practice.

The images, like Rosler's other photographic images, present a visual experience of the common spaces of society and the spaces where exterior and interior worlds intersect: cafes, schools, beauty parlors, theaters, churches. As Cuba was, at the time, largely off-limits to U.S. citizens, these images also exist in a hazy area of widely divergent assumptions about Cuban culture and the role of Cuban Communism.

Martha Rosler works in photography, video, writing, performance, sculpture, and installation. Her work often addresses matters of the public sphere and landscapes of everyday life – actual and virtual – especially as they affect women. Rosler's photographic series on places of passage and systems of transportation – airports, roads, subways, streets – have been widely exhibited. Rosler has for many years produced works on war and the "national security climate," connecting everyday experiences at home with the conduct of war abroad. In 2004 and 2008, in opposition to the current wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, she reinstituted her now well-known series of photomontages "Bringing the War Home: House Beautiful," made as a response to the war in Vietnam in the late 1960s.

Rosler has had numerous solo exhibitions at museums and galleries internationally. The Galleria Arte Moderna e Contemporanea (GAM) in Torino hosted a retrospective exhibition of Rosler's work in fall 2010. Other recent solo shows include those at Portikus, Frankfurt; Institute of Contemporary Arts, London; Centro José Guerrero, Granada; and the International Biennial of the Moving Image, Geneva. She was a founding member of the United Nations Plaza School, Anton Vidokle's project in Berlin, Mexico City, and New York. The Martha Rosler Library, comprising seven thousand books from her personal library, toured national and internationally between 2005 and 2009. Organized by e-flux, the library visited the Lower East Side in New York; the Kunstverein of Frankfurt; MuhKA in Antwerp; Institut national d'histoire de l'art (INHA), in Paris; the United Nations Plaza building in Berlin; John Moore's University in Liverpool; Stills Photo Centre in Edinburgh; and Amherst College, in Massachusetts. Her cycle of three exhibitions and four public forums, entitled "If You Lived Here…" held at the Dia Art Foundation in New York in 1989 and accompanied by a book of art and essays, is regarded as a highly influential new approach to exhibition development. An archive exhibition of "If You Lived Here…" was exhibited at e-flux gallery on the Lower East Side of New York in 2009 and in 2010 at CASCO Center for Architecture, Design and Theory in Utrecht, Netherlands, and La Virreina Centre de la Imagxe, Barcelona.

Rosler has participated in group exhibitions at institutions including the Centre Pompidou, Paris; Museum of Modern Art, New York; the International Center of Photography, New York; Fotomuseum Winterthur; the Reina Sofia, Madrid; Skulptur Projekte Munster 07; documenta 7 & documenta 12, Kassel; several Whitney Biennials, New York; the Venice Biennale; Nederlands Fotomuseum, Rotterdam; Tate Modern, London; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, the Singapore Biennial 2011; and many other international and national venues.

She has published 17 books of photography, art, and writing, in several languages. Her essay book Decoys and Disruptions, was published by MIT Press in 2004. Publication of her three-part series, "Culture Class; Art, Creativity, Urbanism," based on the Third biennial Hermes lecture that she gave in Den Bosch, the Netherlands, in 2010, was recently completed in the e-flux Journal, followed by "From Gentrification to Occupation: The Artistic Mode of Revolution."

Rosler has received numerous national and international awards, including the Spectrum International Prize in Photography (2005) and the Oskar-Kokoschka Prize (2006). She was the USA Artists Nimoy Fellow in 2008, and a Civitella Ranieri Fellow in 2009. In 2010 she was awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award by New York's Guggenheim Museum. She is the holder of a DAAD Artist residency in Berlin this year. In April 2012 she will receive the Asher B. Durand Award from the Brooklyn Museum. She continues to lecture nationally and internationally.

Making A Safe Room

The secure room, which is also known as a panic room, is a secure location within a home or building that’s created to offer safety for families during terrorist attacks, nature, burglaries, or other types of threats. A safe room is an ideal investment for any home owner, even though the much more fortified rooms with heavy security are normally found within the homes of rich people. Those that have lots of money really have no spending budget – therefore they can easily spend thousands on making their safe room the best place to go within the event of an emergency.

For most of us, a secure room is really a location that family members can run to and hide, or call for help in an emergency situation. You don’t truly have to go all out and put steel walls along with a steel door in the room, although you do require a fortified door that opens outward with fortified walls. You can have a door constructed of wood or other material, even though the key ought to be a material that is extremely tough to break through. No matter what kind of door you select, the doorjamb should be steel, to prevent the door from being kicked in.

It’s nearly important that your secure room doesn’t contain any windows. Windows can offer entry for burglars, which is something you obviously don’t want. You need to also make certain that you keep a phone within the room, along with water, first aid kits, food, and any type of defensive weapons that you are able to get. It’s also a great idea to store medical supplies in the secure room as well, just in case you need them.

No matter how difficult you may try, it’s impossible to predict how long you’ll be locked in your safe room when an emergency occurs. As a result, you should generally think about ventilation, lighting, and even hygiene. Being locked in a room for several days or possibly even weeks can affect your hygiene, which is why you need to maintain proper hygiene supplies in your room at all times.

The reason why most individuals invest in a safe room is burglars, as they present a real threat. No matter where you live, or how nice the neighborhood may be, a burglary can occur at any given time. When a burglary happens, the last thing you want to try to do is to reason with the burglars, or attempt to cooperate with them.

When you have a safe room, you may take your family there. You need to constantly make certain that everybody inside your family knows where the safe room is located and how to use it. If you have children, you need to teach them about the room and how essential it is. The room ought to never be used for recreation purposes or for children to play in. Instead, it should only be used in case of an emergency or a place for you and your family to hide.

If you have a safe room or just interested in one, you should constantly make sure that you keep the correct supplies on hand, just in case. Whenever you finally do use the safe room, you should constantly make sure that you keep the keys to open the room inside, so no one else can get in. Although you are inside the room you are able to call the local authorities, then wait inside your safe room until they get to your house and the problem is solved. Never, under any circumstances should you come out of your safe room prior to the police arrive. If a burglary is taking place, you will only make the situation worse.

Stamford American The Most Advanced

May 19th, 2012


Singapore (PRWEB) May 19, 2012

It is the largest K-12 education construction project in the Asia Pacific region. The new $ 300 million permanent campus for Stamford American International School (Stamford) will be the only one of its kind when it opens its doors in August 2012.

Stamford today revealed its plans for the new school which will be the most advanced learning environment ever built. The new facility will feature state of the art technology and facilities that will establish it as the new benchmark for international schools around the world.

The school is being built by Cognita ? one of the world?s largest K-12 education providers, with 58 schools across the UK, Europe and Asia. At a cost of $ 300 million, it represents the largest investment in a K-12 education facility anywhere in the region, and a major economic injection into the Singapore economy.

Brian Rogove, Cognita?s Chief Executive Officer Asia Pacific, said Stamford will be the perfect environment for preparing children for entry into the world?s most prestigious universities.

?The new Singapore school will be a flagship in Cognita?s portfolio of schools. When completed, Stamford will be the most advanced international school ever built. Its features and facilities will be second to none.?

?Stamford will be the school the rest of the world visits, to see the future of education today.?

?The quality of the school we are building underpins our commitment to the Singapore Government to provide a high quality learning institution. Stamford?s world class facilities will reaffirm the EDB?s vote of confidence in Cognita, when they awarded us the site in 2008. As Singapore continues to emerge as an international education hub, it is fitting that the most advanced international school in the world be located here.?

?Cognita decided to make this school our global showpiece because we saw the need for a high quality teaching and learning institution. Singapore has become the crossroads of Asia and a preferred destination for managing regional business opportunities. The balance of quality of life and professional opportunities makes Singapore an ideal location for expatriates. The demand for high quality education is high and Stamford meets the needs of parents and students,? Mr. Rogove said.

Mr. Aaron Tham, Director of EDB?s Human Capital Division said, ?The long-term land sites made available through the Request-for-Interest exercise will allow foreign system schools to invest in the necessary infrastructure and resources to deliver high-quality options. Stamford American International School?s commitment to incorporate technology into its facilities for an enhanced learning environment is a good example of how infrastructure can provide students with an enhanced learning environment. We look forward to the school adding to the range of high-quality international school options available here. ?

WORLD CLASS CAMPUS FEATURES

Key features of the school include:

Singapore?s first Interactive Learning Environment ? where guest lecturers and teachers from around the world can interact with students. Teachers will be able to give lectures on site ? e.g. teaching about Ancient Egypt from the base of the Great Pyramid
Singapore?s first 1 to 1 iPad program for K2 to Grade 5. Older students will have their own MacBook
A 21st century Media Resource Centre – beyond the traditional library, this centre is up to date with the latest traditional as well as technological resources
State of the art science wing and computer laboratories
Comprehensive art facilities – Dedicated spaces for art, theatre, dance and music, including areas for exhibiting of fine arts and hosting of performances
World-class sporting facilities – Two swimming pools with ionized water and a ?learn to swim? wading pool, basketball courts, and an outdoor field for various sports including American Football plus two indoor gyms, including a commercial standard fitness centre
Specially designed Early Years/Nursery facilities, with its own enclosed secure playground
Indoor and outdoor meeting spaces, including student breakout areas
Electronic security system for each child and Singapore?s first fully computerized vehicle drop off and pick up facility

Designed by leading international education specialists, architects FJMT and prominent Singapore design firm Architect 61, the campus delivers a US-style educational experience in a campus designed for an Asian environment.

In terms of size, the new school will require 93,000 tonnes of concrete, 6,000 tonnes of steel and 30 kilometers of cabling.

ECONOMIC BENEFITS TO SINGAPORE

A key economic benefit of the school is the provision of more international school places which helps to attract businesses and investment to Singapore
The other key benefit is the flow-on to the local economy of the $ 300 million construction spend which will create thousands of jobs across various industries
Currently there are seven large consultancy firms engaged directly by the lead design and construction company Lend Lease, while another 50 are estimated to be engaged in the supply of materials, services and trades to the project
More than a 1,000 people are directly engaged on the project with many more to benefit
The school will provide a recurrent injection of several million dollars each year into the local economy through the engagement of local companies to provide cleaning, catering, landscaping, security and other ancillary services to the school.

Stamford was awarded the site by a Government committee chaired by the Singapore Economic Development Board in 2008. Stamford?s foundation campus opened its door at Lorong Chuan in 2009 with 76 students and now operates at full capacity with more than 630 students. The new permanent facility, centrally located at Upper Serangoon Road, will accommodate 2,500 students aged between two and 18 and will be officially opened in October 2012.

Tenderheaded: A Comb-Bending Collection of Hair Stories


What could make a smart woman ignore doctor’s orders? What could get a hardworking employee fired from her job? What could get a black woman in hot water with her white boyfriend? In a word… HAIR. When does a few ounces feel like a few tons? When a doctor advises a black woman to start an exercise program and she wonders how she can do it without breaking a sweat. When an employer fires her for wearing a cultural hairstyle that’s “unprofessional,” and she has to go to court to plead for her job. When she’s with her man, and the moment she’s supposed to let loose, she stops to secure her head scarf so he doesn’t disturb the ‘do. TENDERHEADED? Yes, definitely. All black women are, in one way or another. The issue is not only about looking good, but about feeling adequate in a society where the beauty standards are unobtainable for most women. Tenderheaded boldly throws open the closet where black women’s skeletons have been threatening to burst down the door. In poems, essays, cartoons, photos, and excerpts from novels and plays, women and men speak to the meaning hair has for them, and for society. In an intimate letter, A’Leila Perry Bundles pays tribute to her great-grandmother, hair-care pioneer Madam C.J. Walker, who launched a generation of African-American businesswomen. Corporate consultant Cherilyn “Liv” Wright interviews men and women on the hilarious ways they handle “the hair issue” between the sheets. Art historian Henry John Drewal explores how hairstyles, in Yoruba culture, indicate spiritual destiny, and activist Angela Davis questions how her message of revolution got reduced to a hairstyle. Tenderheaded is as rich and diverse as the children of the African diaspora. With works by Toni Morrison, Alice Walker, bell hooks, Henry Louis Gates Jr., and other writers of passion, persuasion, and humor — this is sure to be one of the most talked-about books of the year.
