Shaping the Constitution: People and Documents Guide to Resources from the Library of Virginia
–by John P. Kaminski
The North American English colonies occupied an ambiguous place within the British Empire. For most of the colonies' existence, the imperial British government interfered little with the American colonies' government or constitutional development. This changed drastically with the end of the French and Indian War in 1763 when Parliament implemented an intrusive imperial policy that included stationing army regiments in some American cities and levying taxes intended to raise revenue to pay for the huge wartime debt and the salaries of colonial officials. Americans viewed these actions as despotic, unconstitutional, and a threat to their liberties and property.
Colonial opposition to the new imperial policy was widespread. The severe British reaction in Massachusetts evoked sympathetic responses from other colonies, particularly from Virginia, the oldest, largest, wealthiest, and most populous of the American colonies.
In July 1774 a committee in Alexandria, Virginia, led by George Mason drafted resolutions critical of the British policy. Expanded in deliberations with George Washington, the Fairfax Resolves did not seek independence but condemned the violation of the colonists' "Ancestral rights" as Englishmen. The royal governor of Virginia, John Murray, earl of Dunmore, dissolved the House of Burgesses on May 26, 1774, whereupon the Burgesses met in a series of five Revolutionary Conventions that vied with the governor for control of the colony. The first of the conventions appointed delegates to the First Continental Congress and adopted non-importation measures against Britain. Fighting broke out between British troops and the Virginia militia led by Patrick Henry. On June 19, 1775, the Continental Congress commissioned George Washington as commander in chief of the American forces.
Governor Dunmore continued military actions and also issued a proclamation in November 1775 urging slaves to leave their masters and join the British in exchange for their freedom. The Second Continental Congress condemned Dunmore's actions as the equivalent of "tearing up the foundations of civil authority and government" and urged Virginians to establish a new form of government that would "produce the happiness of the people, and most effectually secure peace and good order in the colony, during the continuance of the present dispute between Great Britain and these colonies." The fifth Revolutionary Convention on May 15, 1776, unanimously resolved to instruct its congressional delegates to propose independence, seek foreign alliances, and form a confederation among the colonies. On June 7, 1776, Richard Henry Lee submitted Virginia's resolution to Congress, which appointed three committees to address Virginia's proposals. Thomas Jefferson, on a five-man committee appointed to write a declaration of independence, drafted the document that Congress adopted on July 4, 1776, two days after Congress had voted to declare independence.
In Virginia the fifth convention unanimously resolved "that a Committee ought to prepare a Declaration of Rights and such a plan of government as will be most likely to maintain peace and order in this colony and secure substantial and equal liberty to the people." President Edmund Pendleton appointed a thirty-six-man committee, led by George Mason, that submitted a draft declaration of rights on May 27, 1776. The convention debated and amended the draft and on June 12 unanimously adopted the Declaration of Rights.
On June 24 the convention's committee reported a draft constitution, also largely the work of George Mason. Adding a preface written by Thomas Jefferson, the draft constitution was debated for three days and then unanimously adopted on June 29, 1776. The convention chose Patrick Henry governor, appointed a council of state, and provided for the legislative elections.
Throughout its colonial history, Virginia officially recognized the Anglican Church as its established church. Dissenter ministers were sometimes imprisoned for preaching without a license. Various petitions to the legislature asked for religious freedom. George Mason's draft of the Virginia Declaration of Rights declared that "all men should enjoy the fullest Toleration in the Exercise of Religion according to the Dictates of Conscience," but a young James Madison successfully argued for an amendment that "all men are equally entitled to the free exercise of religion, according to the dictates of conscience."
When in 1784 Patrick Henry supported a bill to pay Protestant ministers with public tax revenue, James Madison staunchly opposed the measure in the Virginia House of Delegates. Madison's brilliant Memorial and Remonstrance against Religious Assessments, a petition in favor of the complete separation of church and state, was signed by more than 10,000 Virginians. Madison reintroduced the bill for religious freedom, written by Thomas Jefferson in 1779 as part of a recodification of all of Virginia's laws. After the legislature adopted the Act for Religious Freedom on January 16, 1786, Madison ecstatically wrote Jefferson, then serving as United States minister to France, that they had "extinguished for ever the ambitious hope of making laws for the human mind."
In November 1777 the Second Continental Congress sent the states its final version of the Articles of Confederation, the governing document for the new United States. All the state legislatures had to ratify before the Articles went into effect. On December 15, 1777, the Virginia House of Delegates unanimously approved the Articles. The state Senate approved the next day. On June 25, 1778, Virginia's five delegates to Congress, led by Richard Henry Lee, signed the Articles.
The Articles served well enough to bind the American states together as long as the fear of British domination remained. When American independence was achieved in 1783, a brief period of prosperity was followed by a harsh economic depression with severe social and political conflicts. Debtors demanded relief measures from their state assemblies; when they were not enacted, violence occurred. The Confederation Congress seemed incapable of adequately addressing the enormous problems facing the country. Amendments to the Articles were proposed but, because of the requirement of the unanimous ratification by the state legislatures, none were adopted. Finally a general convention of the states was called to propose amendments to the Articles.
Virginia took the lead in appointing delegates to the federal convention to meet in Philadelphia in May 1787. George Washington, George Mason, James Madison, Governor Edmund Randolph, Patrick Henry, and Richard Henry Lee were among those appointed. Henry and Lee refused their appointments. Madison prepared studiously for the convention, and led in and took extensive notes of the convention debates. Washington served as the convention's president. After meeting for four months from May 25 through September 17, 1787, the delegates approved not amendments to the Articles, but instead an entirely new Constitution. Only three of the delegates in attendance at the end of the Convention refused to sign the new Constitution-Elbridge Gerry of Massachusetts and Virginia's George Mason and Edmund Randolph.
It took ten months to ratify the new Constitution in specially elected state conventions. An intense debate over the Constitution took place in Congress, in the public arena, and in the state conventions. Federalists supported ratification; Antifederalists opposed. James Madison was probably the single most important person in this debate. He served as a clearinghouse of Federalist information in New York City, wrote many of The Federalist Papers with Alexander Hamilton and John Jay (both from New York), and, with the help of George Wythe, Edmund Pendleton, and Edmund Randolph, defeated the opposition of Patrick Henry, George Mason, William Grayson, and James Monroe in the Virginia convention that ratified the Constitution on June 25, 1788, by a vote of 89 to 79.
The Antifederalists' most serious objection to the Constitution was that it did not contain a bill of rights. Federalists led by James Madison, James Wilson of Pennsylvania, and Alexander Hamilton argued that the Constitution created a government of delegated powers that would have no authority to violate rights. In order to ratify the Constitution, Federalists promised that they would support a bill of rights and other amendments to the Constitution that would be proposed by the first federal Congress. Madison, who had defended the omission of a bill of rights during the ratification debate, now supported such amendments during his election campaign for the U.S. House of Representatives in which he defeated James Monroe. In June 1789 Madison stood almost alone in Congress supporting a bill of rights. With assistance from President George Washington, Madison got the necessary two-thirds vote in the House of Representatives. The amendments were altered by the Senate and then reconciled in a conference committee late in September 1789. Two years later on December 15, 1791, Virginia became the eleventh state to ratify ten amendments to the Constitution, thus satisfying the requirement in Article V of the Constitution that three-fourths of the states vote for amendments in order for them to become part of the Constitution.
Remarkably the new Constitution created a much stronger central government while at the same time providing more protection for individual rights. But, unfortunately the Constitution did nothing to eliminate slavery or provide for woman's suffrage. Not until after the Civil War with the adoption of the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution (1865) was slavery prohibited in the United States or any of its territories. Three years later the Fourteenth Amendment (1868) defined an American citizen as anyone born in the United States or naturalized. The Fifteenth Amendment (1870) then provided that a citizen's right to vote could "not be denied or abridged by the United States or any state on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude." The right to vote was expanded further to include women in the Nineteenth Amendment (1920) and to citizens eighteen years of age or older by the Twenty-sixth Amendment (1971). The Twenty-fourth Amendment (1964) provided that no citizen could be deprived of the right to vote "by reason of failure to pay any poll tax or other tax."
The U.S. Bill of Rights was determined by John Marshall in the case of Baron v. Baltimore (1833) to apply only to the federal government. In 1868 the Fourteenth Amendment provided that no state could "deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." In the twentieth century the Supreme Court interpreted this provision to mean that various protections of U.S. Bill of Rights were to extend over the states as well as the federal government and were to apply to any person living in the United States, not merely to citizens. The shaping of the Constitution has thus been greatly expanded over the many years since its adoption.

Rushed Reaction: #4 Wisconsin 60, #5 Vanderbilt 57Posted by AMurawa on March 17th, 2012
Three Key Takeaways.
- Players making plays. Down the stretch, it seemed just about all of the star players in this game made significant plays. There was Festus Ezeli with a giant swat on one end followed up by a soft lay-in on the other. There was a great play by Jeff Taylor to bring Vanderbilt back within one possession. There was the John Jenkins dish to Ezeli to put the Commodores up a point just before Jordan Taylor answered with a dagger three-pointer. And then, down the stretch, Wisconsin ran down two straight long offensive rebounds, allowing them to take over a minute off the clock. Still, after Josh Gasser missed the front-end of a one-and-one, Jenkins had a pretty good look at a three with six seconds left, but it was not to be.
- Starting strong, finishing strong. Ryan Evans scored ten points right out of the gate, including eight in the first four minutes of the game, then disappeared for about 20 minutes after picking up his second foul with four minutes remaining in the first half. But, with the game in the balance, Evans soared above bigger Vanderbilt players to snatch a huge rebound following that missed Jenkins three in the closing seconds, then proceeded to hit a free throw to extend the Badger lead to three, which was the final margin.
- Balance. In a game like this, with solid fundamental defensive teams, no one player was able to stay hot for long, which led to balanced scoring all the way around. Five different Badgers scored in double figures, led by Jordan Taylor's 14, but with players like Jarred Berggren, Mike Bruesewitz, and even freshman guard Ben Brust stepping up and making plays. Brust wound up with 11, all in the second half, including three big three-pointers.
Star of the Game. Festus Ezeli, Vanderbilt. In a tight game that went down to the wire, Ezeli was the one unstoppable force in the game. Despite not starting, he wound up with 14 points and 11 rebounds and had a hand in three of the final four Commodore hoops (two baskets and one assist). While his career ends, Ezeli was the one athlete who stood out among a company of equals.
Sights & Sounds. While some portions of the Baylor and Colorado section did not fill up until halftime of this game, just about every other seat in this arena was filled early. And with two excellent bands, filling up the pregame, halftime and extended timeouts, the environment inside The Pit was every bit as electric as you would hope March basketball would be. As the game went down to a wire, all the neutral fans in the arena seemed to wind up just rooting for whoever was behind in the game, making for a loud and exciting conclusion.
Wildcard. For much of the final stretch in crunch time, Vanderbilt senior guard Brad Tinsley watched from the bench as freshman Kedren Johnson ran the point. While other lesser leaders might be hurt by such a perceived slight, Tinsley was there ready to give the youngster advice on leaving the timeouts. Call it a passing of the torch, as the quartet of Commodore seniors wraps up their careers with just one NCAA Tournament win to their names.
What's Next? Wisconsin will face Syracuse in the Sweet 16 on Thursday night. While the Orange looked excellent in advancing to the Sweet 16, the ineligibility of sophomore center Fab Melo may leave them susceptible on the inside where the Badgers interior tandem Bruesewitz and Berggren can make an impact.

World's largest oceanarium opens
S.E.A. Aquarium, the world's biggest aquarium with more than 100,000 marine animals of over 800 species in 45 million liters of water, opened on Thursday.
The aquarium and Adventure Cove Waterpark are two new attractions of the Marine Life Park at Singapore's Resorts World Sentosa.
Among these are manta rays, hammerhead sharks and controversial Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphins.
According to Singapore's Straits Times newspaper, animal rights activists have long been lobbying for the resort management to release the 25 wild dolphins captured for the resort.
Park officials defend the wild dolphins' inclusion.
"We hold the belief that zoological organizations have a role to play in wildlife conservation and that to avert species crises, controlled wildlife collections can occur for quality zoological facilities to increase our understanding of the species and for breeding purposes," says the resort in a series of detailed responses to critics on its website's FAQ page.
The aquarium comprises 49 habitats imitating different areas in Southeast Asia. The Open Ocean habitat will house the world's largest viewing panel (36 meters wide and 8.3 meters high).
Diners in the Ocean Restaurant will share the unobstructed underwater view. It is said that the restaurant will provide sustainable seafood meals.

Southeast Asia's first hydro-magnetic coaster
Marine Life Park will have two ticketed attractions that allow for wet or dry fun -- Adventure Cove Waterpark and the Southeast Asia Aquarium.
Adventure Cove Waterpark will feature Southeast Asia's first hydromagnetic coaster, Riptide Rocket, a slide that propels riders up and down inclines and around sharp curves. The other attractions include the Bluwater Bay wave pool and a 620-meter meandering river through scenes of tropical jungles, grottos and a surround aquarium.
Visitors can also snorkel with fish in the Rainbow Reef or sign up for ray-feeding. Interaction programs with sharks and dolphins will be introduced next year.
Marine Life Park is the last of 12 major launches planned for the S$7 billion (US$5.7 billion) integrated resort since it opened in January of 2010, joining Universal Studios, a casino, the Maritime Experiential Museum and several luxury hotels and restaurants helmed by celebrity chefs.
Daily admissions to S.E.A. Aquarium are priced at S$29 (US$24) for adult and S$20 (US$16) for child and senior citizens. Same prices for Adventure Cove Waterpark. From now to December 7, open daily, 10 a.m.- 6 p.m.. Opening hours will be extended to 10 a.m.- 7 p.m. from December 8 onwards. Advanced reservation is recommended.

text: Figures and graphs are an essential part of scientific literature, but few will ever be noticed by graphic artists or information design gurus. They're uncelebrated and utilitarian, a means to an end — but some, however, stand out. Though lacking in post-production polish, they convey complex messages with elegance and directness. They might even be considered the scientific world's folk art. On the following pages are some of Wired Science's favorite research graphics from the past year.

But that's a legacy of prosperity. In fact, the country is as religiously and linguistically mixed as Northern Ireland, or even parts of the former Yugoslavia. What makes Switzerland different is at least partly a matter of geography and politics. Where mountains don't separate potentially conflicting groups, political borders do. Arranged clockwise from top left in the images above is the religious distribution of Switzerland's population; a map of the country's cantons; risks of violence as calculated without accounting for canton borders; and violence risks with administrative borders included. At right, a similar analysis is made for language differences, with topography introduced as a barrier factor. The modeling accurately predicts the one region where ethnic violence existed until recently: the northwest, where the Jura mountains formed porous boundaries between historically French and German-speaking communities.

With MBAs getting a lot of heat for supposedly unethical practices leading to our current financial situation, it was only a matter of time before business schools began to place a greater emphasis on business ethics. The New England College of Business and Finance has upped the ante with an actual degree pertaining to business ethics. The main question is – what do you do with this degree?

Twenty five years after the groundbreaking animated-live-action hybrid film became an instant hit, you probably recall the lead character in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" But do you remember who voiced Roger Rabbit?
Charles Fleischer, an actor and standup comic whose off-kilter, rapid-fire onstage persona was known to rival his friend and contemporary Robin Williams for sheer manic inventiveness, was the man tapped to craft the perfect voice for the carrot-fancying character at the center of the murder mystery in Toontown. Fleischer's distinctive vocals (he also voiced Benny the Cab and the weasel thugs Greasy and Psycho) defined the persona of an antic 'toon that, while brand-new to the real world, fit perfectly alongside the 1940s-era animated icons like Mickey Mouse, Bugs Bunny and Betty Boop that Roger would historically share the screen with in director Robert Zemeckis, producer Steven Spielberg and animator Richard Williams' ambitious production.
To mark the film's 25th anniversary and debut on Blu Ray, Fleischer looks back at putting the "P-p-p-p-please" into Roger's pleas to Eddie Valiant, and reveals his latest attempts at breaking new ground, this time in the world of science.
What does it mean to you to have been part of something that so many people have just adored for so many years?
It's an extraordinary experience to be involved in anything that has the magnitude of 'Roger Rabbit,' and the moment that I became involved with it, I had a sense that it was going to be an important piece of film and entertainment, and I think that has come to be.
How did the project first come your way?
I was asked to come in and assist them in the process of auditioning the Eddie Valiant character, so the actors had to do lines with someone off camera. Bob Zemeckis had seen me do my stand up at Comedy Store and remembered me, and they brought me in to do that. And after several auditions – including Ed Harris and James Woods – Zemeckis asked me if I wanted to go to England and do this as Roger Rabbit. I thought about for maybe a millisecond – just to let him know I'm not going to be easy! – and said 'Yeah.' And it was still one of the highlights of my early life.
You made the then-inspired decision to actually be put on a Roger Rabbit outfit while you did the line readings for people on set.
My voice was recorded on set because the animators needed it to begin working on it immediately. And it just made sense to me: if I'm going to be there every day, I should have a costume. I didn't want to look like, "He's wearing the same pants he wore yesterday." So I said to Joanna Johnston, the costume designer, "Could you make me a Roger Rabbit suit to wear?" And they did. It had the ears and it helped Bob Hoskins a lot because it helped him to visualize me when I was there – and it was also good press too because I was at the Elstree Studios in Borehamwood outside of England, and I think there was somebody from 'Willow' or 'Superman [IV]' that was still filming at the same time, and they saw me in the commissary and said something like, "That rabbit movie's not going to be good. We saw the rabbit, and he doesn't even look like a rabbit!" They thought that was the extent of it.
How was the process for finding the right voice for Roger?
Well, I do, do many voices. Like any part, I would undertake what is written, describes certain aspects of the character. In addition to that, it is the appearance of the character. So if the character is very small, it's not going to make sense for him to have a very deep voice. So based on what he looked like and how he moved it just evolved. As an actor, that what's what you do. You find different voices for different people.
What does it mean for you to be able to occasionally bust out Roger Rabbit for a little kid and see their reaction when they realize "Oh, wow – that's actually the real guy?"
Little kid, big kid, old kid – even small animals seem to be amused. I'm happy to do it for people. It's an honor and a privilege especially because Roger Rabbit was such an iconic and extraordinary character. And I think one of the reasons it was so successful was because the movie took place in the 40s and it kind of made you feel that he was always there, that kind of he fit into it.
Were you a big animation buff? Were you as into the historic nature of all these enduring characters appearing in one movie for the first time like Robert Zemeckis and Steven Spielberg, were?
Well, certainly, the name, Fleischer – I'm not related, but Fleischer studios which gave us Betty Boop and KoKo the Clown, and in addition to that, I'm also an artist, and I've always had a love of animation and the correlation of art and technology which this movie exemplifies to the nth – or nth plus n1 – degree.
You continue your long career as an actor and a voice artist, but you also have a lot of other widely varied interests and pursuits. What's front and center in your life right now?
I'm still doing stand-up, and I still do a lot of artwork, and all the artistic aspects. In addition to that I've always been into science. I have a patent on a device that measures golden ratio, and I began a discovery process many years ago considering something called gamma-ray bursts which are the most dynamic expression of energy in the universe.
U.S. & World
I made a discovery about them and I wrote a scientific paper, which was endorsed by an astrophysicist and appears on the Cornell University web site. To get on this site, you have to be endorsed by a well-known scientist, and my paper on gamma-ray bursts is now published with all these other esteemed scientists. Discovering something is difficult, but then getting the next step is even more problematic – that is more or less a quote from Murray Gell-Mann who is the scientist that got a Nobel prize for discovering quarks, the constituents of protons which make up part of the nucleus of an atom. If I'm right about my discovery – it is a hypothesis – it will elementally change certain aspects of science ,which would be cool. And it would also be cool for maybe the Roger Rabbit sequel when Roger Rabbit comes out on Violet Ray.
Did you have to make a choice at some point in your life, like comedy or science, given that your brain is wired for both?
I read a book by Arthur Koestler once called "The Act of Creation," and in it he compares the scientist and the comedian, they are both performing what he called a bio-associative act bringing together two things that weren't related. Maxwell, conceived of electromagnetic spectrum, before that there was electricity and magnetism, so he kind of combined them into one, and for instance in my stand-up, I do an impression of a Japanese Bob Dylan. So it's two things that you wouldn't expect to see together that combining bio-association is something that is common to both comedy and science. So after I read that book, I felt a little more comfortable with my love of both things right and left brain.

After six years in office, Prime Minister Stephen Harper's Conservatives finally get to flex their majority muscles today with a budget of deep spending cuts and government streamlining.
Everything appears up for a rethink, from the way major resource projects are assessed to how immigrants are selected, research and development is funded and the eligibility age for certain pension benefits.
The first budget since last May's majority victory, Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird boasted Wednesday in the Commons, "will help the middle class by ensuring the long-term prosperity of this great country."
"It will support the priorities of working families, creating an environment for job creation, supporting health care, supporting education. It is going to do great things over the next year on this plan."
The Conservatives have been pushing a "jobs and growth" mantra for months, including some $12 million in pre-budget advertising by Finance and the Canada Revenue Agency.
But a more frank appraisal might frame the budget as short-term pain for longer term gain.
Among the expected measures:
— Cuts totalling about $7 billion, or 8.5 per cent of government program spending, over three years that will have an impact on everything from military spending to environmental monitoring and the CBC.
— Changes in the long term that will raise the age of eligibility for old age security to 67 from 65, affecting most Canadians younger than 50.
— Streamlining the environmental assessment process for major projects such as mines and pipelines.
— More targeted government subsidies for research and development.
— Changes to skills training, the qualifications of economic migrants and some employment insurance programs in an effort to make Canada's labour market more productive.
The official Opposition NDP is already accusing the Harper government of engineering an ideologically driven race to the bottom.
Harper's minority run of politically popular tax cuts and lavish pork-barrel spending, say New Democrats, have set the table for this day of reckoning.
"The Conservatives have caused the problem by gutting the fiscal capacity of the government," Thomas Mulcair, the newly crowned NDP leader, said Wednesday.
"Now they're saying, oh, gee whiz, no more fiscal capacity in the government, we know what we'll do, we'll start cutting the services of the government."
With more than three years of unobstructed majority rule ahead until the next federal election in the fall of 2015, former government ministers agree now is the time for the Conservatives to act boldly.
With so much international economic volatility, Finance Minister Jim Flaherty pushed back the budget date as long as possible.
The spending blueprint, typically delivered in February, comes on the second-to-last business day in the government's fiscal calendar before the April 1 start Sunday of the 2012-13 year.
And despite better-than-expected numbers that have economists predicting the 2011-12 federal deficit could come in as much as $10 billion below the $31 billion projected last November, deep government cuts remain on track.
"Any of the hard things you believe you are going to have to do, you got to get them out of the way early," John Manley, head of the Canadian Council of Chief Executives and a former Liberal industry minister, said in an interview.
"First of all it shows a direction, and secondly it enables you to have time to deal with any political fallout."
Perrin Beatty, president of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, said that after almost a decade of Liberal and Conservative minorities, it's time for some long-term budget thinking.
"In a majority government, you look at where Canada will be four years from now," said Beatty. "In a minority parliament you look at where you'll be four weeks from now. And that's very different."
And in just under four years, Harper's Conservatives will be going back to the electorate looking to extend their government for a fourth term.
They've already made expensive promises — contingent on balanced books — that would allow them to campaign in 2015 on income splitting for families with children and a doubling of the limit on tax-free savings accounts to $10,000 annually.
Those measures, if enacted, will further erode federal revenues by billions in subsequent years, constraining the ability of future governments to restore program spending without increasing taxes.

EZ-Woof-525 - The Lucid 5.2.5 Build Environment
Subject description: No Other Downloading Required - Great for Experimentation
This is the
exact build environment for Lucid Puppy 5.2.5
. It builds the lupu-525.iso and the devx_lupu_525.sfs.
The build takes about 10 minutes.
Errata: 2byte figured out that it may only work correctly in Lucid 5.2 or 5.2.5. It seems to correct the problem to delete /packages-lupu/firstrun/pinstall.sh.
The only thing to download is
, which is about 431MB. There is nothing else to download and no packages to build--that has already been done. I have found that EZ-Woof is
great for experimentation-
-I just built Lucid 5.2.5 with alsa 1.0.24.
Quick Start:
1) Download EZ-Woof-525.tgz to a disk with at least 2GBs free space, and then 2) open a terminal in that disk and run 'tar -xvf EZ-Woof-525.tgz'. Don't try to unpack it with Xarchive--it never finishes. 3) Open the folder and run
Choose the Kernel tab and use 'linux_kernel-126.96.36.199-tickless_smp_patched-L3'. Then choose the Build tab and you are on your way. It wouldn't hurt to read the rest of this though.
The reason for EZ-Woof is that Lucid Puppy 5.2 and 5.2.5 made use of many packages that were not a part of Ubuntu Lucid Lynx 10.04. The easiest way to deal with those packages was to undeb or unpet them, and then move them directly into /packages-lupu, replacing the folder that was there. For instance, to update pmusic, I would download the latest pmusic pet, change the extension to tgz, unpack it, and then move the folder into /packages-lupu, deleting or renaming the pmusic folder that was already there, and changing the folder name to simply pmusic (rather than pmusic-1.1.6, etc.). You can do this also, of course. Be warned that some packages such as ffmpeg, could get pretty hairy.
The other main thing
you must know is that the "recipe" for the distro is in the file DISTRO_PKGS_SPECS-ubuntu-lucid. A package name with a yes will be included in the build. As it is delivered that file will build Lucid 5.2.5. To eliminate a package from the build, you would just change the yes to no. If you wanted to make an addition, you would have to first put the folder into /packages-lupu and then create an entry in DISTRO_PKGS_SPECS-ubuntu-lucid for it. Before you get fancy you might just build the default to see how everything works.
While building, I would do
several things manually
. When the build process stopped to ask me if I wanted to include the i810, I would do these things.
1. copy PKGS_MANAGEMENT, Packages-puppy-lucid-official, and DISTRO_PET_REPOS, from current Lucid /root/.packages to /sandbox3/rootfs-complete/root/.packages. (The reason is to set up the PPM to the pet-packages-lucid repo.)
2. check /sandbox3/rootfs-complete/usr/share/backgrounds and copy into that folder whatever backgrounds you want--check also that default.jpg has content. (The reason is that Woof automatically culls some backgrounds plus if the background you want is in a different folder there would be a problem with an empty default.jpg.)
3. (tweak) copy .gtkrc-2.0 from current /root to /sandbox3/rootfs-complete/root/ (This would over ride your choice of gtk theme but do some things for fonts--maybe.)
4. (tweak for less space) check /sandbox3/rootfs-complete/usr/share/doc and delete all
except sylpheed-doc, pmusic, pburn, pbackup, cups, help, legal.
the process is complete
, the files will be in /sandbox3/build and the iso will be in /sandbox3.
There are now some
illustrated instructions on page 3
of this thread.

my, you have been busy, thought you were having a month off
your point 2/ explains something i've been wondering about, I can now take it off my questions list and put it in my fixes list,
and point 4/ may explain the size problem between what I had expected and was getting.
And as a comment to others who want to try to build "their own puppy", have a go, woof is fun when you work out it's bits.

Post subject: Kernel for Puppy
One forum member has voluntarily taken a GIANT step forward. And, it looks like he could use a little of our help.
He has built, compiled, tested, and has now moved beyond the concept phase into the "practical use" phase. His implementation is very note-worthy as it is aimed at the very PCs that PUPPY (Not WARY or QUIRKY) is published to be used on. And, it appears his implementation is, in fact, a PUPPY 5.25. but, it addresses ALL RAM size PCs.
If anyone has a moment, please take a look at thiis and provide him with any feedback. Everything he is doing is same for what is done for the things we did for PUPPY 5.25, except, he is providing one-significant and useful advancement that we should take note of.
Anything we do in review or help is the very same thing(s) we are going to be doing, with the very next PUPPY, here.
His efforts are here!
Hope this helps.

Thanks guys
When I created Lucid Tmxxine it was to see how remastering would work
Frankly it did not.
Larrys new code above might make others efforts more viable.
Great potential. Many thanks Larry..
Snowpuppy is an excellent Puppy version and again is vastly better than my two days remaster. Simply because of efforts to improve and get working the components. I used it for about a week and also chatted with pemasu on IRC. A good guy. The new experimental Ice version is certainly worth providing feedback as suggested. Pemasu is to be congratulated
Puppy thrives on experimentation, feedback and new ideas.
No matter how crude or faulty our feedback, we can all test
Just remember what something like EZ-Woof-525 gives you.
An operating system. For you. Customised to your needs and specs..
Such fun.

I love Snowpup and use it 24/7 but sadly the new Ice are based on teh latest kernel and that one seems to be more demanding on the hardware.
CPU works more and the overall temperature seems to rise. But I know too little. I do support Pemasu's efforts though. Snowpup to me was a new era for my gears.
Back on topic. So had I had a normal brain and not this confused one then I would be able to make a puppy too
Reading post one I realize it is still too difficult to me to keep all that in my head. But a good step forward indeed.
All such should be welcomed with open arms and big smile.
I use Google Search on Puppy Forum
not an ideal solution though

Lobster, This is all Barry's Woof--just a subset of it, tailored to build an exact or variant copy of Lucid 5.2.5. The packages are already downloaded and built exactly as in Lucid 5.2.5, so all a person has to do to build Lucid 5.2.5 is start Woof, choose the kernel, and Build.
It seems useful for experimenting with different kernels too, because all one needs to do there is to put the new kernel.pet into packages-pets and then it will show up and be used when choosing the kernel.

Thanks Playdayz. Downloading now. And thank you of sharing the info, how you recommend to tweak with woof. About the same prochedures as I have done. Not much to add. I have made my own tweaking script, so that the script do those changes from appropriate folders.
I execute the script after there has been gui to select the wallpaper etc...
I will test this with linux_kernel-126.96.36.199-lupe15.pet. It looks most promising so far.
Thank you Playdayz of ALL your work. Your guidance and templates and all woof info with your ubuntu base has made my Snow Puppy possible. Also it is the base for Ice Puppy also. Maybe this EZ prebuild woof platform will be the base for new kernel also.

One more thing:
There is a folder named
it contains many of the customizations for Lucid Puppy. If you are using EZ-Woof to possibly make a derivative for public use, you probably should look through that folder and make sure you know what it in there. If you are getting wonky results and do not know why, you might also look in zzLupu_Utilities for the reason--for instance, a file of yours may be getting overwritten by something in there.

I've been trying for a couple of days to remaster a working system with an additional menu category with entries.
No matter how I try I cannot get it to work as a live cd with my choices.
There seems to be some sort of problem,so I gave up for now.
I then tried downloading bones and woof but ended up with corrupted files
after a marathon session i gave up.
I've since come across this excellent system and so far I've yet to achieve what I want, even though I modify the packages etc.
As suggested I started at basic and achieved a standard default iso which I burned to CD which worked perfect..
I then tried again adding my package after decompressing the pet. I altered the specs as explained.
I made other changes, in particular I wanted the default to be jwm. But no matter what I do I end up with a default iso again and openbox as wm.
Now, the odd thing is when I reach i810 as you suggest I look into the sandbox files and my stuff is there. I made changes to the windowmanager file to jwm etc but still I end up with a default iso with no changes or additions.
Am I missing something quite simple here ?

Hey tasmod, EZ-Woof is basically for making something either identical or very close to Lucid 5.2.5. It sounds like you are probably successfully adding your programs.
go into the DISTRO_PKGS_SPECS-ubuntu-lucid and put a no in front of openbox and fbpanel.
I bet that might do it.
<Add>Yes. I tested and it worked for me--booted right up in jwm. That's the Woof way--change the DISTRO_PKGS_SPECS-ubuntu-lucid and then rebuild, and rebuild, and rebuild
As I recall there is some problem that I never bothered with that makes a conflict booting jwm first with openbox on the system--it is more than changing /etc/windowmanager..
So all you people who change first thing to jwm can make yourself a Lucid 5.2.5 that only has jwm!!! The reason for Openbox is that gnome-mplayer just did not work well with jwm, but that is all fixed now, basically thanks to ttuuxxx's gnome-mplayer 1.0.2 build.
That is one thing I like about EZ-Woof. I was able to test that in about 7 minutes
And if I screw up the EZ-Woof I am using I can just unpack it again and be back to a pristine Lucid 5.2.5.
Plus, anyone could make an EZ-Woof for any Woof-based iso, Spup or Snow Pup (I think he uses Woof). Anyway, that would be a way to get more people experimenting on a release in development.

should i see an /etc directory inside EZ-Woof-525 directory?
i did try running woof and as you said, my first attempt is just the default yet i got this error
rm: cannot remove `./etc/init.d10alsa': No such file or directory
pinstall script however i think is executed well though.
and i also see alsa in DISTRO_PKGS_SPECS-ubuntu-lucid

OK, somehow, something is just not working for me.
Deleted everything and started again with fresh EZ-Woof.
No changes other than to change openbox and fbpanel to `no` in PKG specs.
Run build and when gui options window appears for theme and background I set my straightforward choices. light-blue background, polished blue theme.
At this point alongside the gui in the terminal window, error messages came up for gtkobject errors at each selection. (sorry, unable to copy them)
I continued and when build was finished I added 'build' iso to grub menu and rebooted using the 'build' iso.
Sadly, no joy.
Still a standard build with no changes made. Still openbox. When I checked etc there was openbox.windowmanager entry. Background was leaves, theme was same with no change.
Where on earth am I going wrong. I know I'm a bit slow on the uptake at the moment but this should be 'simples' for me.
Making any changes in the build files at the 'i810' point just doesn't seem to be reflected in the final build either.

Tasmod. Woof building follows its straightforward logic, you can be sure of it. Something does not go according to that logic now.
Unbuilding is anyway easy. Delete everything from the sandbox folder. Everything. Remove from packages-lupu fbpanel and openbox folders. Then they are not included.
If you still get them in the new iso, then you surely are using wrong iso or files from another build.

You might not have gotten the proper DISTRO_PKGS_SPECS-ubuntu-lucid
Is it possible you have a lupusave file on that disk that the new build is picking up? Or have you copied a previous lupu-525.sfs to the hard disk to make for faster booting. You might go to the Specifications tab in Woof and change the number and/or the prefix--remember to Save.
I think pemasu might not understand that you are using EZ-Woof. It shouldn't be necessary to delete anything. The no in the DISTRO_PKGS_SPECS-ubuntu-lucid will do it. But he is being extrememly safe
I made a test last night with the no to openbox and fbpanel--it booted fine to jwm, but when I went to Shutdown there was a problem--nothing happened. CTRL-Alt-Backspace fixed that.
At the i810 you make changes to the /rootfs-complete filesystem.
It really sounds like some other lupu-525.sfs or a lupusave is getting in the way.
No doubt this is is something simple that we are overlooking. When the process ends, the new files are in the /Build folder in /sandbox3 and the lupu-525.iso is in /sandbox3.

Playdayz. I understood it right. It was just an ultimate solution to not have some packages included. When you dont have them, you cant include them. If the booting puppy still have them, then......
I thought about your possible reasons also, but I was a bit vague in my post.
Not using the right specs or the booting process picks the previous same named sfs is both possible.
I have used and build one 525 build already, everything went as it should.
Because it is so easy to unpack the ez woof again, the removing of the created packages from the build is really one way to not include them.
./3builddistro script complains about those missing packages but wont affect to the outcome.
And thank you of bringing this ready made woof platform for everyone to test it, use it, play with it and at last, create something new that didnt exist before.......

Do you want to get your skin as smooth as a baby's bottom? Nothing polishes the face better than the fine granules that baking soda is made of. I love to use this simple and inexpensive home remedy to smooth the skin, especially on the face. It's quick and easy.
First, take a scoop of baking soda and add a small amount of water just enough to make a paste. Then, take the paste and put it on your face rubbing in a circular motion. Cover the whole face and stop when you feel that your face is fully cleaned and polished.
Lastly, run warm water and rinse. Make sure you get all the granules off.
Your skin will feel smooth and polished
Put on the moisturizer of your choice.

Category:PO files
From OLPC
PO files are templates used to translate webpages using gettext. A PO file is made up of many entries, each entry holding the relation between an original untranslated string and its corresponding translation. All entries in a given PO file usually pertain to a single project, and all translations are expressed in a single target language.
Below are the PO files used to translate the OLPC website. Our naming convention is to use the 2- or 3-digit ISO 639 language code as well as a redirect from pages using the English and native language in their titles, e.g., Hi PO, Hindi PO, and हिन्दी PO.
In April 2007 the Old PO File was overhauled.

An interesting new community site launched this morning. And by community, I mean real community: the street you live on. StreetAdvisor is a place to rate your block and meet your neighbors.
The rating system lets you review your street on five main scales (vibe, wired, health, value, essentials), each of which has subscores (for example, the wired scale includes a cellular coverage score). That's a lot of ratings to give, but you can, if you want, just give the main overview scores.
You can also upload video tours of your street, which could be a great resource for people looking to move on to a particular street. It's usefulness, however, depends on people reviewing and rating their streets honestly. It also assumes that real estate pros don't try to game the system by artificially inflating streets on which they have houses for sale (or dragging down scores on streets where they don't). The co-founders told me that have measures in place are in place to help prevent that.
For residents of a particular street, the system's "StreetBoard" also serves as a local resource. It's a social network with an open message board ("StreetShout") for street-related discussion with your neighbors. It also has a wiki-like element: You can find the numbers of local services (police, doctors, post offices) or enter them yourself for others to see.
When I heard about StreetAdvisor, I was eager to try it out, since I need to coordinate some fence repairs with neighbors. However, I can already see a problem with the service: The linear, street-based nature of it means will offer a lot of information about my street, which runs through several neighborhoods in San Francisco, but I won't see the information from people around the corner from me who have addresses on a different street. That's a real drag because my backyard shares a fence with some of these houses, and I consider them my neighbors more than the residents who live in houses a block down. The founders say they plan to address this issue soon.
Also, this service won't be of value to anyone unless several people per street join the online community. It's going to be lonely for StreetAdvisor pioneers. The company plans to market its site to streets and neighborhoods by using direct mail and local papers.
There are other things I can't let go by without a mention. I like that you can rate cellular coverage. Unfortunately, however, you can't rate it by carrier, a system that might work in Australia (where the service was created), where all service is GSM, but here in the states, carrier ratings are key to the data.
Obviously, I'm critical of this service, but that's not because I think it's a bad idea. To the contrary: the service is nicely designed and could offer a lot of utility. It needs refinement, but I want it to succeed because, personally, I need it. Meantime, I recommend Yelp as a resource to talk about neighborhood services.
Mashable also has a useful write-up on the StreetAdvisor service.

Liberty News
Forensics Team dominates at national Christian invitational
The Liberty University Forensics Team posted top wins at the 2013 National Christian College Forensics Invitational at John Brown University in Fort Smith, Ark., March 9-11, earning the team championship in its division. The five team members Liberty sent to the tournament won the top five overall individual speaking awards and five individual championships, as well as four second place and several third and fourth place awards.
There were nearly 500 entries in the individual categories from 25 Christian institutions across the country, including Oral Roberts University, Wheaton College, Seattle Pacific University, Kansas Wesleyan University, and Cedarville University.
The invitational tallied points earned from both individual/small group speaking events (forensics) and debate. Since debate and forensics are separate at Liberty, and the debate team was competing in the American Debate Association championships at the same time, Liberty only earned points on the forensics side. Even still, Liberty earned the most points in its division, and individually, sweeping both the individual sweepstakes and the open individual tournament sweepstakes.
"The only teams that earned more total points than us had debaters," said Christian Collins, forensics coach. "It was pretty neat that we were able to go to this tournament and show that we are able to compete at a high level. It especially speaks to the skill level and hard work of each of the team members."
Senior Josh Wade, who helped reinstate forensics at Liberty a few years ago after a brief hiatus, was the tournament's overall best speaker, finishing first in both individual sweeps and the open individual tournament sweeps. Junior Kenny Lau was second in both sweepstakes, finishing with the same number of points as Wade — Wade was granted the tiebreaker for winning more individual first place awards. Shadrach Hicks, a freshman, took third in both sweeps. Senior Colin Dowd finished fourth place in the individual sweeps and fifth place in open sweeps, right behind teammate Yemisi Egbewole, a senior.
Last semester, six team members qualified to compete in the National Forensic Association National Tournament, which will be held at Marshall University April 18-22.
