283 - Mac New Years Resolutions [Trailer]
[LESS INFO] 26 VIEWS | ADDED 14:24:57 01/10/11
The first full show for the New Year and it’s the time to catch up on some things you know your really should do with your Mac.
This members only show gives you some ideas on what to set as New Year’s resolutions for your Mac.
Mac New Years Resolutions
Passwords - We’re all guilty of occasionally slipping into the bad behaviour of using the same password for multiple web services, even if you’re a 1Password user! Why not take the time to weed out all those services and start the New Year with a strong unique password for each service? But how do you know which services you’ve left compromised? Well if you’re a 1Password user, this section shows you how to easily identify those services and systematically put them right. If you’re not a 1Password user, I couldn’t recommend it highly enough. Here’s an affiliate link to their site - 1Password
Even if you’re very conscientiousness and have methodically set a unique password on all your services, you still need to change them regularly.
This section also shows how to use the 1Password Strong Password Generator in both browsers and also in standalone mode.
Backups - We all know just how important backups are but are you backing up? If not, stop reading this, go out and buy a USB or FW external drive and switch on Time Machine!
In this section, I local at several aspects of starting a good backup strategy.
*
Local Backups - I explore using an external drive to create both a Time Machine backup and a bootable SuperDuper backup as well as discussing the reasons why both types of backups are useful.
*
Offsite Backups & Online Backups - Just a local backup really isn’t enough! You really should have at least an online backup with a reputable backup service and ideally, a third backup offsite.
I demonstrate a number of tools that will help you in these areas:
Backup 3 - If you’re a MobileMe user, you’re already paying for a local and online backup service so why not use it! You can also use Backup 3 to create backups to physical media so you can create off site backups easily. This short section takes you through some of the features of Backups including how to download and install on your Mac, as well as creating some “Custom Plans” CrashPlan - With both a free version and a paid for version Crashplan allows you to seamlessly backup to local devices, and even friends computers across the internet allowing you to create both local and offsite backups in one east step. With Crashplan Pro, you can also send your data to Crashplan Central, a low cost online backup service, at the same time - all bases covered. With support for attached volumes as well as the ability to “seed” your backup onto a drive and send to Crashplan, and also have your data restored to a hard disk and sent back to you, Crashplan looks like one of the most comprehensive backup systems available. I explore all aspects of Crashplan and show you just how easy it is to set up and operate. I also demonstrate just how easy it is to backup your Mac to a friends, as well as the local and online backup.
Arq - If you don’t want to use a vendor specific backup service, why not use Amazon’s S3 - Simple Storage Service - and a dedicated Mac client like Arq. This is a simple and efficient “front end” to Amazon S3, specifically designed for the Mac. Using Arq, you pay once for the client and that’s it. All other charges are via Amazon S3. This section demonstrates just how simple it is to setup, operate and restore.
Subscribing directly from your iPad or iPhone
At last! This show also contains a section showing you how you can subscribe and download protected podcasts (and normal audio and video podcasts) directly to your iPad or iPhone. No more being tied to iTunes and having to sync your device every time you want to put some fresh content on your mobile device.

LABRANG TRUTH-TELLERS ESCAPE TO FREEDOM

ive Buddhist monks from the Labrang Tashi Kyil Monastery in Tibet's eastern Amdo province (Ch: Gansu) have reached safety in India, after more than a year spent dodging Chinese security forces in their occupied country. The men were on the run from Chinese authorities due to having engaged in free speech activities — a peaceful protest demonstration in Labrang town on March 14, 2008, and an unapproved press briefing at their monastery on April 9, 2008.
Gedhun Gyatso and Kelsang Jinpa, both aged 39, reportedly helped to organise a procession through downtown Labrang (Ch: Xiahe), four days after the 49th anniversary of the Tibetan National Uprising of 1959. In their national capital city Lhasa, many similar processions had been violently suppressed beginning on March 10, with non-violent chanting monks beaten up and detained by Chinese security forces. After five days of this violent response to non-violent demonstrators, a riot broke out in Lhasa late on March 14 in which both Chinese and Tibetans were killed.
Lobsang Gyatso, 24, Jamyang Jinpa, 24, and Jigme Gyatso, 23, participated in an appeal for the world's help during a Chinese stage-managed "international media tour" which visited their monastery on April 9, 2008. Several dozen of Labrang's monks suddenly appeared before the startled journalists and camera crews, bearing their banned Tibetan national flag and banners reading such things as, "We do not have freedom of speech". The unapproved press briefing was extremely embarrassing to the Chinese colonial authorities, who had hoped to prove that all was perfectly well in Tibet by having a compliant foreign press listen to scripted recitations of the PRC talking points. These three men were among the courageous ones who foiled that plan.
Let's have a little reminder of what that looked like. Remember, these men knew they were risking everything when they did this — potentially including their lives. That is the emotion one can hear in the voices. Chinese officials and security are watching it all take place, unable to intervene because the cameras are rolling. From the testimony of Lama Jigme (see previous article) we know that severe retribution was dealt to some of these men after the cameras were gone.
This escape was first reported by Radio Free Asia , which interviewed them on arrival in New Delhi. Those who had participated in these two events learned that they were targets for arrest, and an unknown number took to the mountains around Labrang and tried to avoid capture in small groups.> "We lived like animals, moving from place to place. But this was better than prison," [Gedhun] Gyatso, one of the protest organizers, said in an interview. Gedhun, Kelsang and another companion were surrounded by Chinese police in the mountains after two months of hiding. The two of them escaped but the other companion was captured and remains in prison.

They didn't know the date of the planned visit, but they prepared themselves for the "good opportunity" to reach out to the world. > "We called for freedom for Tibet and for the release of Tibetan political prisoners, including the Panchen Lama," [Jamyang] Jinpa said. Jamyang added that a lama had advised them to escape after Chinese troops surrounded the monastery when the journalists were gone. They dressed themselves in laymen's clothing and headed for the hills.
The monks reached Dharamsala on Sunday, to a heroes' welcome as they stepped off the early morning bus from Delhi. A press conference was held on Monday — a real press conference this time, without fear of Communist Party reprisal. Phayul reports:> "We couldn’t remain silent when peaceful Tibetan protests in Lhasa and other places were being brutally crushed down, and our fellow Tibetans were being killed for holding peaceful demonstrations," [Gedhun] Gyatso added. Jamyang Jinpa directly addressed the Chinese government's claim that Tibetans are happy and content under their rule, and that the protests which swept Tibetan regions last year (and continue in smaller scale) were the work of foreign-based "splittist instigators".> "What has been happening in Tibet from last year is a spontaneous outcome of deep rooted resentment Tibetan people have had against the Chinese government. No one was there to tell us to protest. Situation alone compelled us to come out on the street," Jinpa said. The men say their newfound freedom has not given them a sense of relief. They did what they did on behalf of their people, and their people remain under the Communist Party's boot.> "Thinking of Tibet makes us feel worried. Our greatest concern is for those who are still suffering in Tibet. Many Tibetans are undergoing torture in Chinese custody," Gyatso said. The Tibet Post also covered the no fear press conference (although it seems to get both incident dates incorrect), and offers additional statements by the new arrivals. Jamyang Jinpa described the Chinese policy in his country this way:> "Population transfer has made us a minority in our own country, we have been colonized by the Chinese, and Tibetans are forced to acknowledge a fake Panchen Lama. [T]here is no religious freedom in Tibet, we are forced to denounce His Holiness the Dalai Lama who is at the core of our heart, from who we seek refuge and salvation." The monks' procession through Labrang town, March 14, 2008.
Photo: Mark Ralston / AFP The press conference was also reported on the Tibetan exile government's website , which curiously refers to the men as "youths" rather than monks. The two older men participated in the monks' procession through Labrang town (39 is a bit old for a "youth") while the three younger men were appealing to journalists at the monastery (the monks you see in the video above — Jigme Gyatso can be recognised at the end of the clip).
The coverage of this great escape has so far been seen on ... the Tibetan exile media only. Up to posting time, this has not been reported on any mainstream international news service, many of whom were present when these monks and others risked everything simply to talk to them last year. This is also very curious, since there are plenty of extra international journalists in India now for the election, and most of those are surely in New Delhi (where these notable escapees first arrived five days ago).
The farming boycott in eastern Tibet is continuing through the last part of the planting season, according to Geshe Monlam Tharchin , a member of the Tibetan parliament in exile. In a report gathered from local sources in the Derge region of Kardze Prefecture, Chinese are reportedly taking land from Tibetans who refuse to cultivate in some areas, and buying up Tibetan farms in other areas for use as a military base, in an increased military presence in the region.
It's now too late in the season for planting wheat, but authorities continue to pressure Tibetans to plant potatoes, peas, and similar crops. Local authorities reportedly issued announcements that, "If you will not to plant the farms, our military will use those farms for our purpose." Many people, mainly men, are escaping their towns and villages on the pretext of gathering medicinal plants. Pressures applied to the population through officially-organized public meetings are meeting resistance, and when asked why they won't plant their farms, the responses are along the lines of, "We Tibetans in the areas are united in our efforts to show our strong solidarity to our brothers and sisters those who lost their lives and those who have faced and are facing brutality, suffering and genocide under the Chinese rule."
A woman works in her family's vineyard in Turfan, May 9, 1997.
Photo: AFP In the former East Turkestan (Ch: Xinjiang) similar policies apply to those who do cultivate their land, but in those cases the beneficiaries will be Chinese businessmen . This is a fine glimpse into China's policies in her colonial holdings, where contracts and leases mean little when a governmental authority happens to run short of cash.
In 1983 the government leased wasteland in northern Xinjiang Uyghur "Autonomous" Region to local peasants, on the condition that they grow fruit orchards. By now the orchards are well established and productive, and the government intends to break the 50 year lease, expropriate the land paying a fraction of its value, and sell it to Chinese businessmen.> Township government chief Abdusamet said the orchards would be better managed if they were bought back.
"The farmers are unable to manage their orchards well," he said. "That is why the township government will take it back — we will manage it better."
"We will auction the orchards to Chinese businessmen from the rest of China," Abdusamet said.
"The Uyghur farmers are unable to benefit from these orchards, and our township government needs income," he said. So the 25 years of work which created the orchards and made them profitable, is translated as, "unable to manage their orchards well," and the government will "manage it better." (This sounds familiar.) It will do that by tearing up the contracts, buying the land at 20% of its value, and selling it to Chinese businesses. The real reason is almost an afterthought — local government needs the money.
A court in Dzoge County, Ngaba T-"A"-P (Ch: Sichuan province) sentenced three Tibetans to prison on unknown charges, according to a report received by Voice of Tibet radio . Jampel, 29, and Lama, 23, both of the Chashang Taringtsang family were sentenced to four years, while Namkho, 27, of Chashang Kyajigtsang family got three years. The source said that arbitrary charges, arbitrary sentences and no choice in legal representation are the common standards of justice in Ngaba.
Former President of the Czech Republic, Vaclav Havel has called for basic standards to be upheld in the election for members of the UN Human Rights Council. Terming the election process a "farce" — and he should know farce as well as he knows totalitarianism, as the playwright himself composed a number of farces — he called for adherence to the Council's founding resolution to "uphold the highest standards in the promotion and protection of human rights" during member selection.
Yesterday, China received 167 votes from the 191 member states present in the General Assembly. It wasn't much of a contest, with 20 candidates for 18 open seats. China hailed its own electoral success, citing its " remarkable achievements in the field of human rights ." If that's the "highest standard" the UN can come up with, we're all in trouble.
