Foreign Affairs / Re: Honest Question For African Americans? by uspry1(f): 2:39pm On Aug 07, 2008
SeanT21:

I am not an AA but most African Americans are Dem. Bill Clinton is famous in the AA comunity and he is a democrat.

Its not about what the DEM has done for the AA comunity. It is what they stand for. Most AA can reason with that.

SeanT21, of course Bill Clinton was the former Democrat 42th US president back in 1993-2001 term. As of today, Bill Clinton is not anymore popular to AA. AA already changed their minds lose interesting in Clintons this year.

@topic

I think it has to do with the Voting Right Acts (VRA) where American African has their voices for years.

Since VRA was the first signed into law by the US President Lyndon B. Johnson in 1965, five additional presidents have signed the enactment or reauthorization of key parts of the Act – Richard Nixon (1970), Gerald Ford (1975), Ronald Regan (1982), George H.W. Bush (1992) and George W. Bush (2006). Though these periodic reauthorizations are necessary to keep some of the sections of the VRA from expiring, there are portions of the Act which have been made permanent and do not need renewal.

That is my opinion, since I am the first time paying attention to Politics last year understanding what's going on. For many years since I took Government class in secondary school, I do not believe in Politics. Because it belongs to dirty corruptions since it first created back early 1880s.  I myself am AA first-time voter this year---reason: enough is enough seeing AA suffered over 60 years after MLK's death. (racisms, discriminations, poverty) It is time for change!!! Voting is the power to stop Congress/Government/President being abused.

Today Americans have trouble believing who they will vote those presidental candidates---not like before in the history!!! 90 days left to vote!!!

Programming / Re: Pls How Can Configure Linus {red Hat} by uspry1(f): 3:15pm On Aug 06, 2008
@javaprince

According to the wiki site, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RPM_Package_Manager, RPM Package Manager (originally Red Hat Package Manager, abbreviated RPM) is a package management system. The name RPM refers to two things: a software package file format, and software packaged in this format. RPM was intended primarily for Linux distributions; the file format RPM is the baseline package format of the Linux Standard Base.

RPM-based Linux distributions are not limited to:

[list]
[li]Fedora [/li]
[li]Mandriva Linux and derivatives: [/li]
[list]
[0]AltLinux
[/list]
[li]Linux for PlayStation 2 [/li]
[li]Red Flag Linux [/li]
[li]Red Hat Enterprise Linux and derivatives:
[list]
[0]CentOS
[0]ASPLinux
[0]Scientific Linux[/list] [/li]
[li]SUSE Linux/openSUSE [/li]
[li]ArkLinux [/li]
[li]Yellow Dog Linux [/li]
[li]PLD Linux Distribution [/li]
[li]Linux XP [/li]
[li]TurboLinux[/li]
[li]PCLinuxOS [/li]
[/list]

By constrast, Ubuntu uses Synaptic Package Manager (wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synaptic_Package_Manager ).

Synaptic is a computer program which is a GTK+ graphical user interface front-end to the Advanced Packaging Tool for the Debian package management system. Synaptic is usually used on systems based on deb packages but can also be used on systems based on RPM packages. It can be used to install, remove and upgrade software packages and to add repositories.

Debian-based Linux distributions are not limited to:

[list]
[li]64 Studio[/li]
[li]AbulÉdu  [/li]
[li]Alinex [/li]

Basically for my answer, RPM normally uses that file format ".rpm" package while Synaptic/Debian uses that file format ".deb" also does work on ".rpm" too.

Do you aware that you can run Microsoft Office, Adobe Photoshop or Internet Explorer on Linux OS? Ever heard of WINE, Win4lin, Crossover, or VMware? These are all virtual machines (emulators) which make it possible to run a guest OS on a different OS. In any case, have you tried Openoffice? For me, it is much better and functional than MS Office. It even natively allows you to save your documents as .pdf not needing the expensive full adobe acrobat product. And with the new version 2.0 Abi which has an inbuilt data base program much like microsoft access, I don't even need to use MS office anymore.

See my previous postings: Can Windows applications run on Linux OS? and How Do I Know If Windows applications work running on Linux OS like Ubuntu?

danteweb:

Accessibility - How many visually impaired people use the internet

Maintenance - well i've got dreamweaver!

In conclusion, CSS is better, but I don't believe tables are bad!

@danteweb and yawa-ti-de

Let me answer this web accessibility question: How many visually impaired people use the internet?

Both in US and UK under Federal or Government agencies are required using accessibility for visually impaired and hearing impaired PC users--- roughly 5 to 10 millions blind people in the USA and Europe/India/China use the internet.

Blind people use the internet by connecting a screen reader. A screen reader is a voice software that looks at the computer code making up the page and reads this out to the blind user. It allows to move around the page by tabbing to Headings, paragraphs, links, etc.

For anyone who is completely blind, the Internet is a God Send. It gives them back their independence and allows them to shop, find information, read e-books etc. without a helper to make sure they don't get lost.

In the UK and many other countries there is now a legal requirement for all business web sites to be accessible to Screen Reader users as well as people with other disabilities.

By the way, you probably are not aware the fact that i, myself, am hearing impaired (deaf) web designer/developer. I am strongly familiar with the American with the Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), a civil rights for disabled people (deaf, blind, wheelchair, crippled, etc) to protect them against discrimination on job, housing, transportation, and public places.

The sad part that all of webmasters/web developers (in USA, Europe, and other countries) are violated with disability/accessibilty law to provide hearing impaired (deaf) PC users the closed captioned"CC" on all video files and written transcripts on all audio files. They(webmaster/developers) do not understand what deaf people complain about the lacking of captioned video files/audio transcripts deaf people need for 15 YEARS. It has not solved anyway.

You see every Windows OS and Linux OS provide accessibility for blind and deaf pc users since US American with the Disabilities Act law went effective on July 1990 with the US President George Bush Senior signed.

I maintan both Dreamweaver and HTML-Kit using CSS coding much easier plus CSS validator too!

I guess most Nigerian webmasters are not able to afford paying the setup fee of the following payment processors: interswitch/etransact/vpay in order to receive the API script installed on their secured website allowing users to charge their credit cards payment directly.

Programming / Re: Pls How Can Configure Linus {red Hat} by uspry1(f): 9:37pm On Aug 04, 2008
salinson:

thanks for your reply to my request, please what is the minimal configuration of system Linus require, cool

Linux OS with minimal installation will work on any oldest computer with only 128KB to 512MB RAM memory chip where customers cannot afford buying newest computer system or part upgrade/replacement unlikely Windows Vista requires 1-2 GB RAM memory chip with newer processor/CPU. (Windows Vista will not work on older pc with less than 512mb RAM memory chip).

Anyway, Linux OS will also work on newer system too. I use Windows XP professional OS and Ubuntu linux OS as dual-boot with 1GB RAM and 140GB hard disk drive to split sharing two hard disk partitions---no problem!

Therefore, you can install your RedHat Linux on your existing Windows XP or Vista that will be your dual-boot. Read my posting on "Ubuntu 8.04: Optimize For Speed And Performance "---somewhere explaining how dual-boot works.

I suggest you to download Wubi Installer software first (click here for details) before you download RedHat Linux in case of you change your mind to uninstall Linux OS later that will make your life much easier.(Wubi Installer will remove Linux partition for you automatically)

Without installing Wubi Installer, you have to follow step-by-step instruction with using your own Windows OS cd to boot with Recovery selection and fixmbr command in order to remove specified partition where Linux installed then reboot your system manually. Of course, I also provide remove Linux OS instruction on Computer section mentioned above same link (download-Wubi Installer) just scroll down for manual instruction part.

Wubi Installer will work all linux distro (Ubuntu, RedHat, Fedora, BSD, MintLinux, goes on. . .)

Remember: RedHat Linux OS will work sharing the same Linux command/kernal as well as Ubuntu Linux OS too.

Good luck exploring your new Linux user.

Since I do not familiarize with your software: ULTRA SURF, check out at existing NL thread that is found below:

https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-129722.0.html

After reading this, I assume that you are in Nigeria using ULTRA SURF software that is designated for USA or Canada IP addresses only---does not work in Nigeria. I guess!! Maybe I am wrong! I do not live in Nigeria!

Good luck!

Art, Graphics & Video / Re: Design Agency Versus Advertising Agency by uspry1(f): 4:08am On Aug 02, 2008
According to the wikipedia, An advertising agency or ad agency is a service business dedicated to creating, planning and handling advertising (and sometimes other forms of promotion) for its clients. An ad agency is independent from the client and provides an outside point of view to the effort of selling the client's products or services. An agency can also handle overall marketing and branding strategies and sales promotions for its clients.

Typical ad agency clients include businesses and corporations, non-profit organizations and government agencies. Agencies may be hired to produce single ads or, more commonly, ongoing series of related ads, called an advertising campaign.

+++++++++++++++++++++++

While Design Agency is generally categorised by the types of media for which they offer design services. These design disciplines vary greatly and include branding and print, web & internet, exhibition and event promotion, advertising and public relations, video and broadcast media etc. There are also more specialist design agencies, which are less main-stream and concentrate on services to specific industries such as aeronautical, engineering and construction.

Many mainstream design agencies tend to dedicate most of their skills to one or two specific disciplines, such as logo or web design. Other agencies offer a much wider range of disciplines and offer in-house expertise across multiple marketing and design media. Even those services for which they procure outsourced support, are procured and managed on the client's behalf by the agency.

The intent throughout all design discipline is to provide the most appropriate, engaging and effective visualisation of a product or service. The design is commonly the starting point of all associated and subsequent marketing activity, and often provides inspiration, focus and clarity to a project.

Great design enables the clients, or in many cases the client's client, to quickly appreciate - and even respond to - the products or services on offer. Many companies and individuals successes and failures have been directly attributable to the design process.

Agency and freelance designers use a variety of tools, and many prefer to utilise the Apple Macintosh platform and product suites, although Windows PC based products offer the same abilities in many cases. Software manufacturers such as Adobe (which includes PhotoShop and the Macromedia Suite of products) and Quark are the industry leaders.

@topic

Most on my paid contract jobs i was hired as web designer/developer are Design agencies and government sectors with in-house designing departments, not Advertising Agency.

Hope this clear to you @smartsoft! I agreed with @whalewale. You have to be cautioned when it comes to Design agency and Ad agency depend on job description of graphic designer they hire you for the job.

Generally, the position of Graphic designers do work both Design agency and Advertising agency.
