Home FEATURED How 1980 marked a turning point to reform
How 1980 marked a turning point to reform
Max Blenkin
Australians went to the polls in October 1980, electing a prominent union leader as a new Labor MP and giving Prime Minister Malcolm Fraser and Opposition Leader Bill Hayden big surprises.
The surprise for Fraser was that he nearly lost, while Hayden performed far better than even those on his own side expected.
The new Labor MP was, of course, Bob Hawke who would lead Labor to victory next time round.
Cabinet papers from 1980 – released by the National Archives of Australia under the 30-year rule – reveal Fraser's government was as hard-working as ever.
Cabinet made 2671 decisions and considered 759 submissions and 415 memoranda.
But Fraser's government was harbouring tensions and ambitious up-and-coming MPs, among them his treasurer John Howard and foreign minister Andrew Peacock.
Yet for all the high politics and international tensions of 1980, the enduring news event of 1980 remains the disappearance of baby Azaria Chamberlain from a campsite at the foot of Uluru on August 17.
Archives historical consultant Jim Stokes said 1980 was a year of transition, with potential new leaders emerging on both sides.
"Labor was emerging from the trough it had fallen into in 1975," he said.
"Politically the Fraser government had lost ground since its election triumphs of 1975 and 1977."
Dr Stokes said the October 1980 election campaign began with an assumption that Fraser would win.
"By the end three of the national polls were predicting a Labor victory," he said.
Fraser survived with a 23-seat majority, while in the Senate the balance of power passed to five Australian Democrats and Tasmanian independent Brian Harradine.
Dr Stokes said Labor took the view that they were well placed for a win in 1983, though the more pessimistic believed they could hardly rely on the coalition to run such a poor campaign twice running.
For Labor the key development was the election to parliament of Bob Hawke.
Fraser retained the coalition leadership with deputy Phil Lynch keeping the deputy leadership against a challenge by Andrew Peacock.
One event of 1980 well remembered today remains the leaking of most of Howard's budget to then Channel Ten reporter Laurie Oakes two days before it was to be delivered. Just who leaked this document remains a complete mystery.
Dr Stokes said there was the usual peremptory inquiry.
"There was the standard `yes, prime minister, a full investigation will be taken'. There was that decision and there was nothing beyond that. So I presume the AFP (Australian Federal Police) is still working on it," he said.
Then treasury secretary John Stone, subsequently a National Party senator and now a commentator on the cabinet papers for New Ltd newspapers, said the big question in any leak was who stood to benefit.
"The leak in that case … was not the complete budget speech," he said.
"It significantly left out all the market-sensitive aspects of the budget speech, but of course it was taken as being a total budget leak."
Archives launch guest speaker, veteran reporter Paul Kelly agreed 1980-81 were years of transition, although the period wasn't appreciated as such at the time.
"What was apparent as 1980 and 81 unfolded was a gradual and dim awakening that change was stirring and the existing order was broken," he said.
"The main domestic issue was the economy and the underlying issue was the tension between Fraser's ambitions on one hand and his young treasurer John Howard, backed by Treasury secretary Stone on the other hand."
At the time the economy was travelling reasonably well, with a resources boom on the horizon.
But that boom sparked a wages blowout. Stone in the budget papers noted that wage claims were formulated in anticipation of benefits which had not begun to flow.
Kelly said wages rose 14 per cent in the year to December 1980, which was too much too fast.
"The system would break over the next two years in a series of infamous events that set the scene for the early 1980s recession," he said.
"It is this recession that changed Australian economic and political history by confirming to all sides, politicians, unions and business that an entirely new framework was needed – hence the Hawke-Keating reforms."
Kelly said the 1980 election was the turning point.
"Before this election, Fraser's task was to restore discipline after the Whitlam excesses," he said.
"After this election, Fraser became an agent of resistance to necessary economic change, to broadly based indirect tax wanted by Howard and then resistant to freeing up interest rates and deregulating the financial system."
Kelly said there was open-and-shut case on Fraser's attitude to economic reform at this time.
"All you have go to do is look at what Fraser said during the 1980s when Hawke and Keating were in government. He was a ferocious critic of their policy decisions," he said.
"The bigger picture was that Fraser declined in his last term the big issues of tax reform, tariff reform, deregulation. When it comes to the economy, the record is pretty clear."

We have enjoyed five full days in this amazing city. We have been on the go from sun-up to sun-down. We have seen so many wonderful sights and tasted so many delicious things. And now we are tired. It is time to say good-bye to Kraków.
We spent yesterday touring the Wieliczka Salt Mine. It was in operation for over 700 years, closing recently in 2007! Everything within its depths has been carved by hand from salt blocks. The showpiece is the Chapel of Saint Kinga (photo above) which is actually a fair-sized church. Every single element here, from chandeliers to altarpieces, is carved out of salt. It took over 30 years for one man and then his brother to complete this underground temple. And about 20,000 tonnes of rock salt had to be removed. CRAZY!
Don't look down! I almost had vertigo while descending 500 twisting steps to the first chamber of the mine shaft.
This chandelier in the mine is made entirely of wood and salt crystals.
Every evening there is a steady stream of customers for zapiekanki, an open-face sandwich made of half of a baguette topped with sautéed mushrooms and cheese. It's a very popular street food with its origins dating back to the austere times of Poland's Communist regime.
This building has decided to embrace its 'crumblingness' by using grey paint to outline where the plaster has fallen away from the brick walls.
14th century barbican at the entrance to the Old City.
Kraków has the prettiest buildings.
Drinking wódka in the afternoon? Hell, yeah!
Joe and his newest BFF at a local wódka bar.
Making friends wherever we go. Joe and I with our newest Korean buddy, Sun.
On our final walk through the Old Town, a bride and groom strolled past us. It was such a nice way to end our time in the beautiful city of Kraków.
We are flying back to Stockholm today. We will stay another two nights with our lovely Swedish home exchange friends. We are looking forward to seeing them again and comparing notes of our visits in each other's country.
Do widzenia, Kraków! I hope I see you (and other parts of Poland) again soon.

02. Give voluntary charity as much as possible, for you owe more than merely the zakat obligatory. Make provision for the afterlife by giving while you have health and want to cling to your money out of fear of poverty, seeing life before you. Allah Most High says, "Whoever is watchful against the stinginess of his own soul, those shall be the successful" (Koran 59:9), meaning they shall be saved.
03. Never obey anyone of Allah's servants, even father or mother, in an act of disobedience to Allah, for there is no obedience to a creature in disobedience to the Creator.
04. Do not wrong another person, for wrongs done to others are clouds of darkness on the Day of Judgement. Wronging others includes not doing what Allah has obliged you to do for them.
06. Tell the truth when you speak. It is one of the worst betrayals to tell your brother something he thinks you are being honest about when the matter is otherwise.
07. Be honest in your clothes and dress. It is an outrage against Allah to appear to His servants in the guise of the righteous while secretly contradicting it with the works of the wicked.
08. Recite the Koran and contemplate its meanings. Reflect while reading it on the qualities Allah has praised, with which He describes the people He loves. Acquire these qualities yourself and shun those Allah has condemned. Do your utmost of memorize the Holy Koran by acts as you do by words.
09. Never explain a verse of Holy Koran by your own opinion, but check as to how it has been understood by the scholars of Sacred Law and men of wisdom who came before you. If you comprehend something else by it and what you have understood contradicts the Sacred Law, forsake your wretched opinion and fling it against the wall.
10. Beware lest you ever say anything that does not conform to the Sacred Law. Know that the highest stage of the perfected ones (rijal) is the Sacred Law of Muhammad (Allah bless him and give him peace). And know that the esoteric that contravenes the exoteric is a fraud.
11. Take care to eat lawful food bought with a lawful income, for the entire body of someone who eats what is lawful, his hearing, eyesight, hands, and feet, are disposed to obey Allah whether he wishes to or not; while the whole body of someone who eats the unlawful is disposed to do wrong whether he wants to or not.
12. Keep the thought of Allah Mighty and Majestic ever before you with respect to what He takes from you and what He gives. He takes away nothing except that you may show patience and win His love, for He loves the patient, and when He loves you, He will treat you as a lover does his beloved. And so too, when He gives to you, He bestows blessings upon you that you may give thanks, for He loves the thankful.
13. Do not walk a step, take a bite, or make a move without intending thereby to draw nearer to Allah.
14. Perform the remembrance of Allah (dhikr) silently and aloud, in a group and when alone, for Allah Most High says, "Remember Me: I will remember you" (Koran 2:152).
16. Train your children in points of Islamic behavior so they grow up to be Muslims who love Islam and respect the religion of Islam.
18. Always visit those who are ill, as it helps one reflect and take admonition, for someone ill is close to Allah. One has only to consider that the sick person has no one to call upon but Allah, nothing to reflect on but Allah, and his condition reminds one of the blessing of health (al-Hall al-sadid li ma astashkalahu al-murid (y46), 29-32).

Newest PC Game Reviews
Can You Imagine Remote Admin Tools Targetting Digital Glass
An article that should make most of us think about Digital Glass. We all think it won't happen to u because we are too computer savvy, but think again!
Good on you Nate Anderson for writing this piece. It is revealing in every sense of the word!
If you intend to be a Digital Glass user, don't think this stuff is not possible in the wearable space… it's just a matter of time.
""See! That shit keeps popping up on my fucking computer!" says a blond woman as she leans back on a couch, bottle-feeding a baby on her lap.
The woman is visible from thousands of miles away on a hacker's computer. The hacker has infected her machine with a remote administration tool (RAT) that gives him access to the woman's screen, to her webcam, to her files, to her microphone. He watches her and the baby through a small control window open on his Windows PC, then he decides to have a little fun. He enters a series of shock and pornographic websites and watches them appear on the woman's computer.
The woman is startled. "Did it scare you?" she asks someone off camera. A young man steps into the webcam frame. "Yes," he says. Both stare at the computer in horrified fascination. A picture of old naked men appears in their Web browser, then vanishes as a McAfee security product blocks a "dangerous site."
"I think someone hacked into our computer," says the young man."

Watch: Black Mountain Release New Single/Video "What's Your Conquest?"
Los Angeles space age rockn'roll band Black Mountain have released the video for their new single "What's Your Conquest?".
Frontman Stephen McBean had this to say about the cover in a press release: "Easton / Hawkes flippin' east London eggs on some Cold War blocks. Un, Deux, Trois - another pop explosion!"

New Entry: Nation Of Language Return With New Single "The Motorist"
Brooklyn post punk/new wave/synth-pop outfit Nation Of Language have returned with their new single "The Motorist".
The song b/w with "Sacred Tongue" is out today (October 10). has been added to our current playlist and is out now. Pre-order the vinyl single here.
Frontman Ian Devaney explains: "The Motorist" took shape during a period of preoccupation with the distance and the filters that develop between old friends and me. In a car, you're isolated, and things can be put to your exact specifications. As I continuously dial in my vision of my future, the gulf between myself and essential figures of my past seems to grow. In what could probably be derided as mixed metaphors, I also wanted to bring a filmic aspect into the song, as the internet (a series of curated images) becomes the primary form of keeping up with one another. We're posting the best take of our day and saying, "This is what my life is like now." So I'm more sealed off, and the things I'm seeing outside are feeling more rehearsed and surreal. (Which is not me pointing fingers about social media usage … I do the same shit.)

submit an advisor agreement via the my.ise portal no later than Reading Day of their first semester in the program.
submit an advisor agreement via the my.ise portal no later than Reading Day of their first semester in the program. The student will officially choose the thesis or non-thesis option when submitting their advisor agreement. The advisor agreement may be severed at any time by the faculty member or the student.
Start early! The semester will be over before you know it.
The degree requirements in ISE for our PhD degrees are very flexible. This is so that the student can pursue courses in his/her research area without constraint. To assist the student, ISE has created research area webpages, which list the faculty and courses in each research area.
All on-campus students are required to register for IE/SE 590 every fall and spring semester. MS and PhD Industrial Engineering students must register for IE 590. MS and PhD Systems & Entrepreneurial Engineering students must register for SE 590. This course meets as "arranged". ISE seminars will be scheduled weekly throughout the semester. All graduate students must attend 6 seminars to pass the course. Seminar substitution forms are available on the my.ise portal for those students who would like to attend a few seminars outside of the ISE department.
Stage I: Stage I of the PhD program consists of 32 hours, generally represented by an MS degree or equivalent. To advance to Stage II, a student must pass the Qualifying Examination.
Stage II: Stage II of the PhD program consists of 32 hours of coursework beyond the MS degree. To advance to Stage III, a student must pass the Preliminary Examination.
Stage III: Stage III of the PhD program consists of a minimum of 32 hours of 599 thesis research credit, a written dissertation, and a final oral defense.
* Assumes student has an MS/MA degree or has completed all coursework equivalent to an MS/MA if entering with a Bachelor's. Students entering with a Bachelor's degree have a time limit of 7 years.
In general, students entering the program with a B.S. degree should take the Qualifying Examination (the Qual) before obtaining the MS degree, and no later than the fifth semester after beginning their graduate study. Students entering the PhD program with a MS degree should take their qualifying examinations no later than their third semester of enrollment. A student admitted in spring may petition to take the exam in the spring term.
A signed MS/PhD Advisor Agreement Form must be on file in the ISE Graduate Department office.
8 credit hours of 500-level coursework must be completed in IE and/or SE courses, other than the thesis credit courses (IE or SE 599).
A grade point average of at least 3.25 must have been attained on all graduate coursework completed.
The Qual has two components. The first component consists of a written-exam; the oral-examination forms the second component. The written exam involves three parts. Each part will be a one hour-long examination (in one three-hour time block) on topics covered in the courses in the qualifying exam guide. The written exam will be held within three weeks of the start of each semester.
A student who fails any portion of the Qual may repeat that portion of the exam in the subsequent semester. A student who fails the exam on the second attempt will not be allowed to continue in the PhD program. A student who fails two or three of the one-hour written exams will not be allowed to take the oral qualifying exam until the following semester.
The ISE written qualifying exam will consist of three one-hour written examinations in a single three-hour time block. Each one-hour portion will cover material from 1 of 3 courses. These exams will be graded as "pass/borderline/fail". The faculty will ratify the results of the written qualifying exam at the monthly faculty meeting following the written exam. A student who is "borderline" on a written exam can be provided a conditional pass with the proviso that he/she takes appropriate remedial course(s). A "fail" on the first attempt requires the student to repeat the written qualifying exam for that area.
See the qualifying exam guide to review exam options for your research area.
The second component of the qual is an oral examination. The 45-minute oral examination will be based primarily on a presentation made by the student to a three-person oral examination committee (OEC) within the candidate's research concentration. This examination will be conducted during the last three weeks of each semester.
connections to the student's research interests.
The presentation should be 25 minutes in length, leaving 20 minutes for questions. Questioning may range beyond the material in the assigned paper, and may include questions relating to the student's written examination problems.
Students should not expect to defend their research in the Oral Examination.
The PhD candidate is also required to take three courses that are outside his/her research concentration, as a part of the breadth-requirement. The student must communicate these courses to the Graduate Programs Office via the my.ise petition portal. The Graduate Programs Office will notify the student of the decision to accept or deny the courses chosen.
The Preliminary Examination is essentially an oral examination on a proposed dissertation topic and the student's academic preparation. The examination is taken upon completion of all required coursework for the PhD degree, or the semester in which the final unit of coursework is taken, but no sooner, and is administered by a committee which is appointed by the Graduate College in accordance with department requests. A student must be registered for the entire semester in which they take the Preliminary Examination.
The Final Examination consists of an oral defense of the dissertation and is administered by the doctoral committee. This examination is open to the public. The Graduate College does require that all doctoral candidates be registered for the entire academic term during which they take the final examination, regardless of when the thesis will be deposited or when the degree will be conferred. If enough thesis credits have been accumulated, registration for zero hours is acceptable.
Scheduling the exam, securing the committee members, and reserving an appropriate room is the student's responsibility. See the complete preliminary and final exam guide for deadlines, committee requirements, dissertation proposal guidelines, and scheduling information.
The Department of Industrial and Enterprise Systems Engineering requires a minimum of six months between the preliminary and final examinations.
ISE expects PhD degree students to complete the degree requirements in 3-5 years, with those students entering with an MS degree finishing sooner than those without.
Remember…commencement is separate from graduation. You must register for commencement and rent regalia if you plan to walk.
For more information, consult the Checklist for Graduating Students.

Just remove all the other hubcaps. Not the end of the world.


The classified ad reads like the often-repeated urban legend of someone selling a family heirloom worth thousands for chump change. A Honda CBX from an estate sale for $1400? That bike is worth 15 times that. Steal that bike before the seller realizes what a horrible mistake they've made. But wait. Scrolling down the ad reveals the photo used for the main image is an example of what a pristine, fully-restored CBX looks like. But it is not the bike the seller is trying to pawn off. The actual bike for sale appears to have been stored in a swimming pool filled with salt water. All of a sudden, the $1400 does not look like such a sweet deal. This bike is missing parts and the parts that are there look rough. These CBX bikes are not easy to work on or service when they are in good shape. This one would be a nightmare. Unless your business is restoring CBXs, I wouldn't touch this for any price.
Funny, it doesn't look like the first bike pictured in the ad. The old switch-a-roo isn't going to work on us. The rust on the brake rotors was only one clue.
This bike was stored outside for a long, long time. This is one RWP'ed that will require a ton of work to get anywhere close to the condition of the first bike.

March is colon cancer awareness month. I lost my father to colon cancer. "Preventing colon cancer" is near and dear to my heart.
I was shocked when I got the call that my father was diagnosed with colon cancer. Cancer affected lots of people, but I never thought it could happen to my father. My father was always in good health and good at sports. My paternal grandfather lived to 97 years old. So, we assumed everyone in our family would live a long life due to the good genes we carried.
I bought a ticket home to be with my father immediately. He underwent a major surgery and chemotherapy. We did a lot of research and made a whole list of things he could do to reduce the risk of recurrence. For example, having a healthy diet with lots of fruits, vegetables, and fiber; avoiding red and processed meats, drink more milk, no alcohol. But his cancer still came back and spread. It was a horrendous experience watching him lose weight and constantly be in pain. The loss of my father was devastating.
Some cancers are hard to detect and they are usually in the advanced stage when symptoms appear. But colon cancer is highly detectable and treatable if caught in the early stages. Getting a colonoscopy is the best way for colorectal cancer screening. With a colonoscopy, polyps can be removed before they become cancerous.
I keep thinking about how things might have been if I knew about colon cancer symptoms and colonoscopy at that time. And if my father did screenings, he would probably still be with us. Early Detection is Life Saving. Getting a colonoscopy is not a fun experience, but it is better than the alternative.
It took me several years to realize that my father passed away and I will never have a chance to talk to him and see him again. He can only watch over us from heaven. When the other families celebrate "Father's Day", I only can say "happy father's day" to my father's picture.
Please remind your parents, friends, and relatives to get a colonoscopy or at least get an at-home colon cancer test (such as FIT Test). You may end up saving their lives. And for you parents reading this, please get the test for your own sake. You will have more chance to watch your children and grandchildren grow up and grow older.

Transmodern Festival 2011

The attempt to homogenize American society into easily categorized markets in which those who assimilate are rewarded has left us lacking authentic traditions that bind local cultures into strong communities. It's these traditions that are the lasting foundations for a society, not the ones legislated by congress and condoned by corporate America due to their potential for catchy slogans and convenient merchandising. Somewhere there are men and women wearing uncomfortable suits, sitting around a conference table debating the marketability of a holiday commemorating Osama bin Laden's death and whether or not a video game would be considered in poor taste and if so, would that hurt the sales of said video game.
Events like the Transmodern Festival., now in its eighth year, are filling the void in our culture left by the television era. This festival is a celebration of the ideals, creativity, and identities of real people who, not only have a stake in this community, but are coming together in the most spectacular ways to help strengthen it. It's here, in the absence of commercialism, where the culture that defines a place is forged. That's not to say that commerce is a bad thing when kept in check, but when your traditions become defined by sales figures, the true meaning inevitably comes into question.
Generally speaking, Transmodern is a festival of the arts but more specifically it's a celebration of expression that leans towards the idiosyncratic, radical, innovative, and absurd. To try and find its essence in a sentence or even a paragraph seems to be an impossible undertaking due to the vast array of creativity that lives and breaths during the four day festival in midtown Baltimore. Instead I will let the photography of Philip Laubner, Theresa Keil, and Brooke Hall guide you through some of the highlights.

Power Moves Forever Quest is a wildly imaginative theatrical dance piece directed by Claire Cote and performed by the Effervescent Collective. The concept is based on old Nintendo games and captures the motif brilliantly. Through the use of projections, animation, props, and live and recorded music the stage is virtually morphed into a live action eight bit environment. Though I doubt that everyone in the audience shared the same nostalgia for old Nintendo games, I'm certain that everyone was blown away by what was accomplished. The costuming, choreography, set, music, and performers were all marvelous. The production was pure brain candy. If you missed the show during Transmodern you still have another chance this weekend. Just follow this link Power Moves Forever Quest.

Rooms Play
This year the Transmodern Festival played host to the highly anticipated return of Rooms Play by the Copycat Theatre. The Rooms Play is an immersive theatrical production that puts the audience in the role of the protagonist as they're led through over 20 small environments that they interact with. Last year it got rave reviews and this year seems to be even better. I have to be honest and say that I have yet to see the play but Bret McCabe from the City Paper did and here's what he had to say about it.. I will, however, be taking advantage of the opportunity to see it this weekend as it's playing Friday through Sunday at The Whole Gallery.

Camp Camp
This year's Transmodern heralded the addition of Camp Camp, a campground of sorts, laden with fantastic interactive installations and the occasional performance by groups like the Power Animals pictured above. It's also where the beer vendor was, which is important. Camp Camp was a great addition in that it allowed for a casual place for festival goers to hang out for lack of a better term, and it also allowed for larger scale installations that weren't possible in years passed.

'Moreau' is a beat-em-up based on the classic novel "The Island of Doctor Moreau" by H.G. Wells (public domain).
When our unnamed protagonist is shipwrecked and washes up on a remote island, they counts themselves lucky, until the island's secrets begin to reveal themselves. Released from shackles by one of the island's denizens, the protagonist then has no choice but to fight their way to freedom, and to the truth, or suffer the fate of a test subject for the inhuman experiments of a madman.
This release provides one full stage as a demo. Please provide feedback to help us improve on what's here so far, as we intend to develop it into a full game for commercial release.
Make sure you try out the player transformation by using two powerup pickups! Instructions in-game.
All visual assets and music are original, made specifically for the 3rd CFN Game Jam within its 10-day timeframe, except for SFX, which come from the RPG Maker MV stock library.
...and Mr. Trivel's Simple Save Load Menu 'plugin'.
· A complete story - We've got our adaptation of H.G. Wells' original all planned out!
From the opening cutscene - M'Ling holding up the Chinese zodiac.
Did you need a break from Kung-Fu or was there any other reason you started working on a second (commercial) project?
This was a game jam project that turned out nicely enough to develop into a finished product. Also, I have a collaborator on this with ambitions of getting into full-time gamedev, who wants a commercial release in her portfolio.
Still working on Future Ghost, and learnt a few tricks I can use for it as I was making this and MetaMyth, both game jam entries.
Hello, Fancy seeing you here :P I found this site from a friend. So Should I wait to review this game?
So Should I wait to review this game?
Well, I'll be releasing a free version where you can play all the way through on Normal difficulty with the male player character, so maybe wait for that?

US troops will not burn and pillage like Genghis Khan's hordes as a result of Trump intervening in war crimes cases, Milley says
"We will not turn into a gang of raping, burning, and pillaging throughout ... That is not going to happen."
By Jeff Schogol December 11, 2019
The U.S. military will not disintegrate into an undisciplined horde following President Donald Trump's recent intervention in three war crimes cases, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Army Gen. Mark Milley assured lawmakers on Wednesday.
Milley was testifying before the House Armed Services Committee when he was pressed by Iraq war veteran Rep. Seth Moulton (D-Mass.) about the president's actions in the cases of former Army 1st Lt. Clint Lorance, retired Army Maj. Matthew Golsteyn, and retired Navy SEAL Chief Eddie Gallagher.
Moulton, who served in the Marine Corps, told Milley that he had received a text from a Marine sergeant major, who argued that Trump had set a precedent that the rule of law does not apply in combat zones and he had encouraged troops to "start burning villages and pillaging like Genghis Khan."
"Is this sergeant major of Marines wrong?" Moulton asked.
Milley said the Uniform Code of Military Justice is one of the tools that the military uses to "maintain that capability and some level of humanity in combat zones."
"I understand where the sergeant major is coming from and I know the advice that was given, which I'm not going to share here," Milley said. "But the president of the United States is part of the process and he has the legal authorities to do what he did and he weighed the condition and the situation as he saw fit. He is part of the process."
"We do maintain and we will maintain good order and discipline," Milley continued. "We will not turn into a gang of raping, burning, and pillaging throughout – as the sergeant major implies. That is not going to happen."
Moulton interrupted Milley to say the Marine sergeant major is Navy Cross and Purple Heart recipient "and we're defending the actions of a draft dodger."
Committee chairman Rep. Adam Smith (D-Wash.) ended the exchange by saying lawmakers understood the president is commander-in-chief but they objected to how Trump is being part of the process.
On Nov. 15, Trump pardoned former Lorance, who had been convicted of murder for ordering his men to open fire at three unarmed Afghan men, two of whom were killed. The president also ordered that a murder charge be dismissed against Golsteyn, who had admitted to killing an unarmed Afghan man whom be believed to be a Taliban bomb maker.
Trump also ordered that Gallagher's rank and pay grade be restored to chief petty officer. Gallagher had been acquitted of murder but convicted of posing for a picture with an ISIS fighter's corpse. That conviction still stands.
Both Golsteyn and Lorance attended a recent Trump fundraiser as the president's special guests.

Astronomy mourns the loss of Arecibo by Wladimir Lyra
By wwwastro | Published December 7, 2020
(Originally published in the Las Cruces Sun News on December 6, 2020 – link)
On Tuesday Dec 1st 2020, the astronomy world woke up to the news that one of its major facilities, the radiotelescope of Arecibo Observatory, had collapsed.
Unlike conventional telescopes like Hubble, that collects the same type of light our eyes see and therefore use mirrors to focus that light, a radiotelescope sees in radio waves. Although we tend to think of radio as something we listen to, there is no fundamental distinction between radio waves and visible light. Both are electromagnetic waves, oscillating in a repeating pattern of fixed length. The difference is that this length for visible light is shorter than a millionth of an inch, while for radio waves it is longer than several yards. Radio waves are traveling around you at this very moment. When you switch on "the radio" in your car, the radio waves captured by the antenna are converted into sound waves. A radiotelescope operates in about the same way, except for the conversion to sound. There is an antenna, that captures the radio waves, focusing it into a receiver. The difference between your radio tuning in to your favorite song and a radiotelescope unraveling the mysteries of the Universe is just the size of the antenna.
Covering an area of twenty acres amid the lush tropical forests of Puerto Rico, Arecibo's giant antenna measured over 1000 feet in diameter. Over 150 feet deep, the hemispherical dish focused the radio waves into a receiver suspended 400 feet above it. The telescope was rendered inoperative in August, when a cable crashed onto the antenna. A second cable crashed in November, jeopardizing the platform that kept the receiver suspended. The receiver, weighting 2 million pounds, having lost the support of two of the suspension cables, finally fell and crashed onto the dish.
Built in the 1960s, Arecibo produced major astronomical discoveries. It was responsible for Nobel prize-winning research, the discovery of a pair of pulsars orbiting each other. The name pulsar refers to what at first was a perplexing phenomenon: cosmic pulses of radio waves, repeating very regularly, every 1.33 seconds. The enigmatic pulses were even thought to be a radio message from an alien civilization, and dubbed "little green men". It wasn't until a second pulsar was discovered that it became clear they were a natural phenomenon, found out to be a bizarre type of astronomical body, called neutron stars. Neutron stars are very dense objects, weighting as much as the Sun, but compressed to a few miles in diameter. The gravity is so intense that the electrons, usually orbiting the nucleus of the atom, are pressed onto the nucleus, combining with the protons and converting all matter into neutrons. The magnetic field of the neutron star produce auroras, like on Earth, except that in this case the auroras are so intense we can see them from light years away. We see them as pulses because the rotation of the neutron star brings the aurora in and out of our line of sight, like a lighthouse. Arecibo's detection of a pair of pulsars, so massive and so close to each other, allowed for a decisive test of our best theory of gravity, Einstein's general relativity. Unsurprisingly, Einstein was right.
Another property made Arecibo special: not only it received radio waves, Arecibo also emitted them. It sent radio waves to bounce off nearby objects, working as a planetary radar. Indeed, Arecibo played a vital role on protecting the Earth from deadly asteroid impacts. Its radar would echo off nearby dangerous asteroids, telling us their position to within a few feet. This very accurate tracking allowed us to predict if the asteroid was at risk of impacting Earth. Among the many scientific setbacks the demise of Arecibo represents, the loss of the planetary radar is perhaps the most significant one.
For astronomy, the loss of Arecibo is like a death in the family. But its collapse also reveals a symptom of something deeper happening in US science. In 2016, Arecibo had been surpassed as world's largest radiotelescope by the Chinese Five Hundred Meter Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST). The loss of Arecibo now elevates FAST to an even more unique status. A parallel can also be drawn with the 1993 cancellation of the Superconducting Super Collider in Texas, after 2 billion dollars had already been spent on it. As a result, particle physics was advanced not in the US but in Europe, culminating with the 2012 discovery of the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Supercollider in Switzerland. The disaster at Arecibo should be taken as the painful but obvious lesson that if we do not actively maintain our position of leadership in basic science, we will eventually lose it.

In monflo cllient i have a one server with "Ready to connect" status. But, when trying to connect, i got a "Connection timeout" error.
Should there be a server and client on the same broadcast network?
This is not specified in the FAQ.
I try to connect fom another pc, from another network.
After login I can see the server, then start connecting, in the background I can see already connected, after some waiting connection timeout.
But from my mobile with mobile network I can connect.
Should any port be opened?
Same problem here, can't find solution in their FAQ, emailed their support but no response.
Perhaps no luck getting response for free version users.
Tested Monflo from home and it worked fine. I was very pleased with the results on my LAN.
I then went to my office to try it and I am unable to connect due to a "connection time out" error.
I also see in the background where it appears to connect and then reports already connected as "imi" has posted.
I have a 150/50 mb/s connection at home and a 30/30 mb/s connection at my office. I can stream 4k UHD content at both locations with no issues. Bandwidth is not the issue. Why am I getting this error? This does not give me confidence in the product.
If I had gotten an error about it being an issue with the NAT or firewall then I might be tempted to upgrade but just getting a connection time out error does not make me feel like upgrading would solve anything.
It looks like it is a problem with double NAT or maybe your office PC is behind proxy.
There is only a single Router NAT on each end as is with most internet setups at office and home situations. Your internet provider gives you a router and it has a NAT so that your devices don't need to be assigned their own specific IP addresses.
I have done port forwarding in the past to overcome issues like this if this is indeed the problem. Can you provide any details on what needs to occur for port forwarding to solve this issue? What port numbers does Monflo use for its services?
Also I am responsible for the network in both locations. No proxy exists at either location and there is no double NAT at either location.
Glad I'm not the only one with the same exact problem looking for answers.
The problem is these port changes too.
So far the only solution I have found is to VPN to my house and then use the program. But honestly I shouldn't have to.
Same happen to me. It worked fine testing it with server/client at home, but can´t connect from different places. Any solutions?


The department has formed a Free Open Source Software (FOSS) Cell, to make the staff and students aware of the vast possibilities in the making and use of free software. This has been planned as an extension activity of the Department. Organizing expert seminars, conducting internationally and nationally acclaimed symposiums and workshops etc are FOSS Cell activities.
Free Software is the term introduced by Richard Stallman in 1983 for software which the user can use for any purpose, study the source code of, adapt to their needs and redistribute – modified or unmodified.
study how the program works.
Improve the program and release your improvements to the public.
The FOSS cell was formed in the Department of Master of Computer Applications, UC College in 2006. FOSS cell promotes the usages of open source software. Different programmes were conducted by the FOSS cell. Faculty members and students took active part in the activities.

MIDI controllers are like measuring instruments from the way they tend to operate. Even when you rewind back to the 1990s, you still had those large metallic-build models that you could work your JV1080s into and make a killing.
Fast-forward 10 years or so after, MIDI controllers go digital. We now talk about computers and software. Welcome to the age of the hybrid, where we work straight from the box just like we do with DAW-less, hardware-based rigs. We have somewhat substituted the five-pin MIDI socket for more USB-based PC control.
Consequently, MIDI controllers have become more dynamic and open-ended in their operational approach. Manufacturers have taken all of these into consideration when designing state-of-the-art MIDI controllers.
There are many of them available in the market today but we will focus on the top 7. Hence, this will be a review of the top 7 49-key MIDI controllers you can find.
Editor's Choice: Akai Professional MPK249
"The Akai Professional MPK 249 is a high-performance keyboard controller and pad that combines the unique abilities of super-enhanced workflow, software integrations, and advanced workstation technologies."
Runner-Up: Arturia KeyLab 49 MkII
"The Arturia KeyLab 49 is a state-of-the-art MIDI controller that supports a 4×4 pad grid with relatively longer faders for the keyboard."
Most Ergonomic: Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S49
"The Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S49 is a 4-octave keyboard controller designed for integration with a DAW-powered PC."
Best MIDI Pads: M-Audio Oxygen Pro 49
"The all-new M-Audio Oxygen Pro 49 is designed with flexibility and a superb user experience in mind. It comes with full velocity, 8 work-ready knobs, 9 faders, after touch-sensitive keys, and plug-in features."
Best Budget Pick: Nektar Impact LX49
"Nektar Impact LX49 is a creativity-boosting MIDI controller that switches between instruments settings, presets, and mixers to play or record a wide range of sounds."
Best For Live Performances: Yamaha MX49
"The Yamaha MX49 is a solid release that stakes its claim on the ability for players to alternate the octaves on the keyboard, split, and layer."
Best For Tight Spaces: Roland A-49
"The Roland A-49 is an industry game-changer that comes in a lightweight, premium-grade container and is available in black and pearl white finishes."
Best 49-Key MIDI Controllers Review 2023
Akai Professional MPK249 – Editor's Choice
Number of Keys: 49
Type of Keys: Semi-weighted
Velocity Sensitive: Yes
Pedal Inputs: 1 x 1/4″ TS (sustain/footswitch), 1 x 1/4″ TRS (expression)
MIDI I/O: In/Out/USB/iOS
Item weight: 6 lbs.
Other features: 16 RGB-illuminated MPC pads, 24 assignable knobs, iOS compatibility, includes Ableton Live Lite
The Akai Professional MPK 249 is a high-performance keyboard controller and pad that combines the unique abilities of super-enhanced workflow, software integrations, and advanced workstation technologies. This entry into the Akai Professional family also has an elaborate interface for messing around with DAWs, virtual instruments, plug-ins, and so much more.
Then there's the keyboard that comes with third-party optimization letting you directly integrate with a Mac or Windows PC using plug-and-play or USB functionalities. The controller comes with 49 medium-weight sensitive keys, 16 stylish pads (four bank spaces for each) with RGB feedback, 8 work-ready knobs, and onboard transportation functions.
With up and down control units for the octave, players can have unlimited access to the whole melodic range. Its backlit LCD screen offers a superb layout for easy control and manipulation. I mean, the Akai Professional MPK249 is a complete package!
This product is ideal for any small or medium-sized events like churches services, parties, and small concerts.
What makes it stand out?
Our test team really enjoyed the wide array of shiny colors on the drum pads. Not only that. We think they did well with the well-lit, super-intuitive LCD screen. The Akai Professional MPK249 is also very slick by design and easy to move around; especially advantageous for bands and performers.
Which disadvantages must you keep in mind?
One flaw we spotted was that it shared some features with some of the old MPK series. It also may not be exactly hands-on for newbies who just need something less complex with entry options.
Arturia KeyLab 49 MkII – Runner-Up
Pedal Inputs: 1 x 1/4″ (sustain), 1 x 1/4″ (expression), 3 x 1/4″ (aux)
MIDI I/O: In/Out/USB
Other features: aluminum chassis, 16 RGB backlit performance pads, 4 CV output jacks, smart category controls
Talk about similarities, you can say there's a striking resemblance between the MkII and Essential. On the whole, however, the Arturia KeyLab 49 MkII is much more complex and serious in design, even more than most MIDI keyboards you will find in the market today.
Hardly will you come across a keyboard that supports a 4×4 pad grid with relatively longer faders. The Arturia KeyLab 49 MkII is also much heavier and sturdier coming in a strong metallic case.
Another thing to love about the Arturia KeyLab 49 MkII is its solid buttons that feel clicky to the touch; not overly soft or soggy. The keyboard shares the same after-touch as those experienced with the MiniBrute 2 and MatrixBrute.
The screen area and data knob feature 3 enhanced dedicated buttons for alternating between DAW, Analog Lab, and User modes. Connectivity on the Arturia KeyLab 49 MkII is also a strong selling point. You have the option of drawing power using the USB port or the optional DC adaptor.
Usability on the Arturia KeyLab 49 MkII is top-notch with well-integrated DAW support. The product is great for music producers, singers, and small bands. It is also intuitively designed for more personal use.
Subsequently, we found the Arturia KeyLab 49 MkII very fast and easy to use. Flexibility is also this product's forte. There are lots of options for connectivity with nice integration functionalities.
The only two things we didn't like were that it features only one small display unit and there are no scale options.
Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S49 – Most Ergonomic
Type of Keys: Semi-weighted Fatar Keybed
Velocity Sensitive: Adjustable, Fixed
Pedal Inputs: 2 x 1/4″ TRS (expression, sustain)
Other features: 2 high-resolution full-color displays, Includes Komplete Select software bundle, NKS plug-in format
The Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S49 is a 4-octave keyboard controller designed for integration with a DAW-powered PC. It comes with 2 high-res display units, 8 rotary onboard knobs, 4-way multi-purpose rotary knobs plus transport controls.
A Komplete Kontrol software is also shipped along with the controller to let you manipulate and surf through all the interesting plugins and soft synths samples. These samples come in a Komplete 12 Select designed and trademarked by Native Instrument themselves.
The Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S49 keyboard gives exclusive access and physical control over the sounds and commands in the Komplete Kontrol software. This is practically a small synth studio in your hands. And this is entirely possible regardless of the type of DAW you are working with.
One other interesting feature of the Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S49 is its onboard arpeggiator. This arpeggiator allows you to play a set of notes on repeat even where you are pressing only one key. It lets you do some other complex stuff like adjusting the settings to change its sequence and rhythm.
The Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S49 is highly recommendable for music producers, and rehearsal teams.
We absolutely loved this product just from the first use. It is a complete sound resource and instrument. The team here also had unlimited fun and inspiration experimenting around the scale and chord modes. And yes! we couldn't stop playing with the arpeggiator.
On the flip side, you may not like that it doesn't allow for patch sorting and saving. Also, we noticed that being a "closed-system," the Komplete Kontrol software does not support separately-purchased third-party instruments like NI plug-ins.
M-Audio Oxygen Pro 49 – Best MIDI Pads
Pedal Inputs: 1 x 1/4″ (sustain)
MIDI I/O: Out/USB
Other features: 16 backlit pads, 9 faders for controlling levels, 8 assignable knobs, including MPC Beats and Ableton Live Lite
The all-new M-Audio Oxygen Pro 49 was designed with flexibility and a superb user experience in mind. It comes with full velocity, 8 work-ready knobs, 9 faders, after touch-sensitive keys, and plug-in features. This product also features a small but crisp-clear OLED screen for modulation and control. The build quality is top-notch and is of medium-weight feel. It also does not flex in any way when in use.
The key action is another nice feature with the M-Audio Oxygen Pro 49. They work quietly. Its multicolored backlit pad are very smooth to use and trigger across their whole surface up to the edges. It has a fairly good aftertouch response.
The M-Audio Oxygen Pro 49 also features very compact pitch and modulation wheels that are balanced and properly sprung. When it comes to octave transportation, the keys span a wide range between -3 and +4 octaves.
M-Audio Oxygen Pro 49 is ideal for sturdy and consistent play like in music concerts. Great for singers, stage performers, and instrumentalists.
What stands out in our opinion for this Oxygen pro 49 scale and chord modes that offer alternative foolproof playing styles. The Note Repeat Mode also makes for the perfect sequencing in live performances. Its extensive DAW integration is also an added bonus for the Oxygen Pro 49.
You may not like that it takes some time to get used to using the product, especially for beginners. A lot of its important features are not exactly hands-on. Other than that, we think the Oxygen Pro 49 is a fantastic product.
Nektar Impact LX49 – Best Budget Pick
Type of Keys: Synth Action
Pedal Inputs: 1 x 1/4″ (assignable)
MIDI I/O: USB
Other features: 9 control faders and 8 control pots, including Bitwig 8-Track DAW software, full transport controls, 8 performance pads
The main idea behind the Nektar Impact LX49 is to provide optimal control and boost creativity. This product bears a similar resemblance in features to many other MIDI controllers in the market but also in many ways, quite different. With the Nektar Impact LX49, you can switch between instruments settings, presets, and mixers to play or record a wide range of sounds.
Nektar Impact LX49 also belongs to a class of very few controllers that can connect automatically to almost every DAW. You wouldn't need to install any kind of driver or toggle around complicated settings. It also has a very efficient control center that offers players all they need to take charge of their tunes.

What we loved about this product what its 49 velocity-sensitive keys which have excellent feedback. We also liked that its 4-velocity curves support different styles of play. Everything with the Nektar Impact LX49 is pieced together so beautifully that you won't have any problem getting around it.
Lastly, the size of the keys are quite large enough for finger-drumming and also very sensitive to even the slightest touch.

Velocity Sensitive: 2 x 1/4″ (sustain, controller)
Other features: 16-part multitimbral, 128-note polyphony, free iOS FM synthesizer app, VCM (Virtual Circuit Modeling)
The Yamaha MX49 is a solid release that stakes its claim on the ability for players to alternate the octaves on the keyboard, split, and layer. Players would find the keyboard very lightweight that it can be toppled over very easily with the lightest force.
Yamaha MX49 comes with more than a thousand sounds that differ from the Motif XS series. These sounds may go from simple strings and drums to complicated eight-element synth voice-overs. But the absolute peck for this Yamaha feature is that the board comes compact with all the basic functionalities you need within reach.
The board also has rich user-interface functions that let you access your sound and voice selections with just one click. You can even enter your own songs on the board very easily.
Since many of its sounds trace their origins to the Motif, you can say that the Yamaha MX49 is highly effective in studio productions. It is also great for church, live stage, and solo performances.

We also love that it has a variety of effects with deep and finely-detailed piano tones. We found the handling to be quite tactile with easy-to-use controls. The DAW integration is also superb.
When testing the sound selections, we found some of them to be a little outdated. It also did not have a MIDI sequencer and aftertouch effect which could be a big turn-off to some people. We also find the Yamaha MX49 to be a bit bulky in reality.

Other features: assignable knobs and switches, octave and transpose button, iOS music app compatibility, Mac and Windows compatible

But on the whole, it still depends on the type of music you are playing. Generally, a four octave 49-key MIDI controller is ideal for almost every situation.
Should I get a 25 or 49 key MIDI keyboard?
Either of the two is fine for making music. It all boils down to personal preference and what you hope to achieve in the long run.
