The year 2008 in photographs (part 3 of 3)

Filed under: Day After Day — Rocksoccer @ 15:51

2008 has been an eventful year to say the least – it is difficult to sum up the thousands of stories in just a handful of photographs. That said, I will try to do what I’ve done with other photo narratives here, and tell a story of 2008 in photographs. It’s not the story of 2008, it’s certainly not all stories, but as a collection it does show a good portion of what life has been like over the past 12 months. This is a multi-entry story, 120 photographs over three days. Look for part 1 and part 2 earlier. (40 photos total)

Cases of electrical storms breaking out directly above erupting volcanoes are well documented, although scientists differ on what causes them. Picture taken May 2, 2008. (Carlos Gutierrez) (more…)

学者律师发起抵制央视 22人联署公开信 斥愚民洗脑宣传

(香港)   (2009-01-14)

(联合早报网讯)香港明报报道,内地22位学者、律师近日发出联名公开信《抵制央视,拒绝洗脑》,矛头直指中央电视台。据公开信执笔人凌沧州表示, 发表公开信目的是表明对垄断性资讯和新闻传播的反对立场,督促言论自由、启迪社会思考、落实宪法权利。今次众多学者、律师联名对官控主要喉舌说“不”,在大陆几十年尚属首次,反映出众多内地公民、网民想表达而无处表达的心声。

凌沧州透露,昨晨北京市朝阳区公安分局警员曾向他查问此事,以及他签署零八宪章等问题,表明今次公开信已引起政府有关部门关注。记者昨日多次向中央电视台办公室及总编室查询,对方均回覆“不清楚,无法回应,领导在开会”。

列举七大劣行 美化三鹿

公开信列举了中央电视台(CCTV)七大劣行,包括有央视专题节目为“三鹿”鼓噪宣传,称其有1100道检测关;央视新闻节目对中国转 型时期社会事件报道采取“选择性失语”,对许多突发性事件、群体事件不予以报道或者淡化处理。公开信指出,CCTV新闻联播节目几十年来风格、理念陈旧老 套,在国内报道上经常报喜不报忧;在国际报道上经常报忧不报喜,与其称之“新闻联播”不如正名“宣传联播”更为恰当。

公开信说,中国学人将集体抵制CCTV 所谓“新闻节目”及其网路;对央视“新闻节目”和“宣传节目”及其网站采取“不看、不上、不听、不说”四不策略。

灌输奴才人格 扭曲历史

公开信猛烈抨击央视在黄金时段大量播出“辫子戏”(清朝戏),认为这些“辫子戏”以宫廷权谋、皇权专制、太监奴才等表演毒化了中国走向 自由民主氛围,灌输打造奴才人格,为“专制木乃伊”文化美容,撕开历史伤口等。公开信还批评央视“百家讲坛”节目上的专家“信口雌黄”,例如为文字狱屠夫 康熙、雍正、干隆脸上贴金,扭曲历史真相等。

据了解,今次公开信联名人士还包括冉云飞(学者)、赵国君(法律学者)、滕彪(法学博士)、昝爱宗(作家记者)等人。去年他们曾发表《新春节文化宣言》 抵制着名的央视“春节晚会”,指出这个晚会愈来愈有把中国传统大年除夕夜打造成“愚民节”的味道。

Creating Dynamic DataList control in C#/ASP.Net

Filed under: Computer & Programming — Rocksoccer @ 09:44

From: http://www.codedigest.com/Articles/ASPNET/164_Creating_Dynamic_DataList_control_in_C_ASPNet.aspx

Personal Comment: This is a very good article for creating dynamic DataList. But if you simply follow it, at the end, you will encounter some big problems. Be careful about the red words in the middle of the article. If you use DataBinder, the error below will occur.

DataBinder.Eval: ‘System.Data.DataRowView’ does not contain a property with the name LastDate.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request.
Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

The solution is very easy. Replace DataBinder with XPathBinder .

Raj Kaimal have suggest another solution, but that is really complex for most of RSS today. You need to convert XML files to XSLT. You need fairly a lot more codes to do this. Check it out if you are interested at http://weblogs.asp.net/rajbk/pages/431322.aspx

Introduction

In webapplications, one the most common task is displaying a table of data to users. In ASP.Net 1.x, we make use of the Datagrid, DataList and Repeater controls. Every time, the need of displaying the data will be different. Sometimes, we will require the data to be displayed to the user where he/she should have edit/update/delete functionalities or we require displaying the data with the header being displayed in the left as opposed to top which makes us to decide which of the above control to use. Most of the time, it is sufficient if we drag the control into the webform instead of adding it dynamically to achieve the target.

At times, we will require doing this dynamically. This article will help us to create dynamic datalist control in ASP.Net.

Microsoft has designed this control in such a way that, it can be built dynamically by giving dynamic styles and layouts to the data display. Moving forward, I will explain a scenario where we can have a dynamic datalist control and how to construct it.

Making sense of ASP.Net Paths

Filed under: Computer & Programming — Rocksoccer @ 04:01

Here’s a list of the Path related properties on the Request object (and the Page object):

Request Property

Function and Example

ApplicationPath

Returns the a Web server relative path to your application root

/WestwindWebStore/

PhysicalApplicationPath

Returns a local file system path to your application root

D:\inetpub\wwwroot\WestWindWebStore\

PhysicalPath

Returns the full file system path to the currently executing script

D:\inetpub\wwwroot\WestWindWebStore\Item.aspx

CurrentExecutionFilePath

FilePath

Path

In most situations all of these return the virtual path to the currently executing script relative to the Web Server root.

/WestwindWebStore/item.aspx

PathInfo

Returns any extra path following the script name. Rarely used – this value is usually blank.

/WestwindWebStore/item.aspx/ExtraPathInfo

RawUrl

Returns the application relative URL including querystring or pathinfo

/WestwindWebStore/item.aspx?sku=WWHELP30

Url

Returns the fully qualified URL including domain and protocol

http://www.west-wind.com/Webstore/item.aspx?sku=WWHELP30

Page.TemplateSourceDirectory

Control.TemplateSourceDirectory

Returns the virtual path of the currently executing control (or page). Very useful if you need to know the location of your ASCX control instead of the location of the page.
