(Somerville & Cambridge, MA) Born out of a need for street bands to celebrate their social activist side, the increasingly popular HONK! Festival is back for a 5 year with opportunities galore for participants and festival goers to enjoy themselves immensely. Rain or shine on Columbus Day weekend, October 8-10, the streets primarily in and around Davis Sq. and spilling out into Harvard Square will be teeming with bands raising a good time ruckus.

The confirmed HONK! band count is currently at 25, with one to two new ones being added weekly. But when the final count is in, this year up to 30, there’ll still be no stopping individuals who suddenly feel the need to jump in at the last minute. In today’s parlance, HONK! 2010 already has an app for that! Opportunities abound not only for festival invitees but for the spur of the moment merry maker, including a chance to play music with the October 10th impromptu “community band” made up of individual musicians, who are not affiliated with any of this year’s HONK! bands, but are interested in participating in the gigantic HONK! Parade to Reclaim the Streets for Horns, Bikes and Feet.

Festival updates can be found at www.honkfest.org, twitter.com/honkfest/, and www.facebook.com/honkfestival, or by calling 617-383-HONK (4665). Listed on the next few pages is the festival schedule as it now stands:

The HONK! Festival is a good idea coming to fruition. A need had been identified, not only on the part of musicians — of a particular persuasion — who have a penchant for gathering to raise a awareness about issues that need attention. But also a need is there on the part of the audience — not necessarily of any persuasion — to bask in the glow of this unusual phenomenon.

As often as bands congregate to HONK in protest, they also perform to celebrate the causes and institutions they support: multicultural festivals, peace conferences, social forums, artists’ collectives, community gardens, block parties, neighborhood fundraisers, relief benefits and homeless shelters. In every case, the HONKers’ ultimate goal is to have fun, to relish the art of making fun as a form of individual and collective transcendence, and to encourage others to see and do the same.

The HONK! Festival Committee would like to give special thanks to the following for their support of this year’s
HONK! Festival: City of Somerville, the Somerville Arts Council, RESIST, Harvard Square Business Association, Davis Square businesses, and last but not least, the local Davis Square community, whose support in terms of in-kind donations of food and public services, housing for upwards of 300 musicians, and cash contributions, is vital to keeping the HONK! effort going.

Microsoft Releases Internet Explorer 9 Release Candidate – Graphics Smoking Fast


xml:lang=”en” lang=”en” xmlns=”http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml”>

Microsoft Releases Internet Explorer 9 Release Candidate – Graphics Smoking Fast








224 IT Technical Students Attend CED Solutions Atlanta in December 2010

Atlanta, GA (Vocus/PRWEB) February 13, 2011

Microsoft has announced the availability of the Release Candidate of Internet Explorer 9.

The release candidate, known as IE9 RC, is available at http://www.BeautyOfTheWeb.com in 40 languages, said Dean Hachamovitch, corporate vice president for Internet Explorer at Microsoft, in a Feb. 10 blog post. Hachamovitch said with IE9 RC, Microsoft has incorporated more than 17,000 pieces of feedback about IE9 and has moved the browser forward in terms of performance and standards, user experience, and safety and privacy.

Microsoft culled insights from more than 25 million beta testers to update the IE9 technology, including making the browser’s “Chakra” JavaScript engine at least 30 percent faster than it was in the beta version.

Hachamovitch said, “The IE9 RC is faster with real world sites. In addition to making the script engine faster, we’ve improved and tuned the rest of the browser as well. You’ll find that Gmail, Office Web Applications, and many other sites are faster as a result of scenario tuning, network cache tuning, and new compiler optimizations. You’ll also find that the RC of IE9 often uses megabytes less memory than the beta because of changes like delayed image decoding. We’ve also improved the performance of things many people do every day, like find on page, and made improvements which extend battery life.”

“The graphics engine is smoking fast. That means we can do really cool things,” said Grant Skinner, chief architect and CEO at gskinner.com.

Moreover, Hachamovitch added:

“IE9 RC supports additional emerging Web standards including CSS3 2D Transforms, HTML5 Geolocation and a set of HTML5 semantic elements. We’ve added support for the HTML5 canvas global­Composite­Operation property and improved the performance of canvas’s Canvas­Pixel­Array. We’ve updated IE9 RC to reflect changes to the DOM events and added accessibility to the HTML5 audio and video controls. These additions reflect our pattern of implementing site ready HTML5 while ensuring developers can experiment with new and emerging specifications through our HTML5 Labs. As these specifications become stable, you can expect we will implement them in IE as we have throughout the development of IE9.”

“It really has HTML5 as its foundation,” said Rick Barazza, principal experience architect at Cynergy. “So it lets us focus on designing and not redesigning again and again.”

In addition, IE9 continues to deliver privacy improvements, Microsoft said. In addition to shipping Tracking Protection with IE9 RC, Microsoft has four Tracking Protection Lists live and available for customers to use. Current Tracking Protection Lists include Abine, TRUSTe, PrivacyChoice and AdBlock Plus.

As for hardware acceleration and interoperability in the latest release, according to the SunSpider benchmark, IE9 RC is 35 percent faster than Internet Explorer 9 Beta—322 ms in the beta versus 209 ms in RC. Meanwhile, Microsoft continues to implement standards as they become stable and IE9 RC supports Geolocation, playback of H.264-encoded video using the HTML5 video tag and now WebM video as well, when a VP8 code is installed on Windows.

In a tweet about the new IE9 RC, James Alexander, a .NET developer in Detroit, said, “IE9 still doesn’t support text-shadow or background-image linear gradients like [Mozilla] or [WebKit] so all my cool stuff still looks like [junk.]“

Also, with the new IE9 RC, Microsoft has added more than 1,000 new test cases for JavaScript and updated more than 50 test cases based on community feedback. During IE9 development Microsoft submitted around 4,000 test cases in total for standards like HTML5, CSS, SVG and others, Hachamovitch said.

Hachamovitch also said:

“Based on your feedback, we also made it much easier to refine search queries in the One Box. Based on your feedback, IE9′s download manager will now display the download speed, and download notifications are animated and more noticeable. Based on your feedback, pinned sites now support multiple home pages – ‘redefining awesome’ according to this comment. With Paste & Navigate (Control-Shift-L), hardcore enthusiasts can save a step pasting into the address bar. We’ve reduced the number of pixels in the frame, and updated the visuals, making the active tab easier to identify, and made it easier to close inactive tabs.”

Other developers also weighed in on the IE9 RC. “With IE9 the browser gets out of the way,” said Danny Riddel CEO of Archetype.

“I think that they’ve done a really fantastic job of removing the things you don’t need and it lets you focus on the content, which is the reason we’re on the Web anyway,” said Robbie Ingebretsen, a principal at Pixel Lab.

CBT Planet Set to Release New Training Courses for Microsoft Windows 7

CBT Planet Set to Release New Training Courses for Microsoft Windows 7








Microsoft Windows 7 Training Videos by CBT Planet


Miami, FL (Vocus) March 9, 2010

CBT Planet is gearing up to release five new courses on Windows 7. These Microsoft Windows 7 training courses cover Windows 7 desktop, transitioning from Windows XP to Windows 7, installation and configuration, preparing to become an Enterprise Desktop Support Technician, and planning and managing Windows 7 deployments from a technical perspective. As with many of CBT Planet’s training courses, these courses are designed for IT professionals seeking technical and professional Microsoft certifications.

For example, the certifications covered by the new releases include: MCTS: Windows 7 – Configuration which requires successfully passing Microsoft’s 70-680 exam; MCITP: Enterprise Desktop Support Technician 7 certification which requires passing two exams, 70-680 and 70-685; and MCITP: Enterprise Desktop Administrator 7 certification which requires passing the 70-680 and 70-686 exams. According to CBT Planet spokesman, John Paul Fernandez, “Each of the new Microsoft Windows 7 training courses allows Microsoft exam candidates to prepare for their certification exams from the convenience of their own homes or businesses.” Fernandez explained that the courses incorporate a collection of Microsoft Windows 7 training videos led by certified instructors. “This allows students to receive instructor-led training at their convenience.”

Issued on a Windows 7 training DVD, the courses provide trainees with instant access to video lessons and hands-on labs. “The videos bring the material to life,” Fernandez said. “The tasks are much easier to understand when you see them performed on your computer than when you read about them in a book.”

When asked why issue Microsoft Windows 7 training courses focused on IT certifications, Fernandez explained that not only did Microsoft update its operating system with the release of Windows 7 last year, it also updated its certification program. With organizations moving from Windows XP and Vista to Windows 7, the need for IT professionals with Windows 7 skills is growing. Through certification, IT professionals can prove to employers that they have the skills necessary to plan, install, configure, manage, and support Windows 7 desktops.

CBT Planet’s Microsoft Windows 7 training videos take advantage of computer based training technology, allowing IT professionals to learn by seeing, hearing, and doing. The titles set to be released include:


    Windows 7 Desktop
    Updating Your Technology Knowledge of Microsoft Windows XP to Windows 7
    Installing and Configuring Windows 7 Client
    Windows 7, Enterprise Desktop Support Technician
    Planning and Managing Windows 7 Desktop Deployments and Environments

About CBT Planet:

CBT Planet is a leading provider of computer training courses designed for IT and business professionals. IT certification courses are offered covering all of the major IT certification programs such as CompTIA, Cisco, Oracle, and Microsoft. These courses include IT training videos featuring certified instructors as well as hands-on training activities. Among CBT Planet’s latest releases are new classes covering the latest Windows 7 certifications from Microsoft. With a Windows 7 CBT, it is possible to prepare for one of the new certifications without having to take classes.
