WARNER ROBINS -- The week of Feb. 25 is FFA Week in Warner Robins.
Mayor Chuck Shaheen signed a proclamation declaring it so at the Feb. 4 City Council meeting. National FFA Week is Feb. 16-23, but since Houston County schools are closed that week, Warner Robins will celebrate early.
Warner Robins High School FFA President Ryan Finley and Vice President Brianna Russ attended the meeting with Veronica Sanders, agriculture teacher and FFA adviser at the school. Ryan and Brianna presented council members, City Attorney Jim Elliott, City Clerk Alton Maddox and Mayor Chuck Shaheen with a dozen eggs each.
The eggs were given as a thank you. When Warner Robins High wanted to open a school farm in the 2011-12 school year, the school needed councils approval to have farm animals within the city limits. Council unanimously gave its consent, and since then the eggs have become a steady income for the FFA chapter as well as a daily lesson in taking care of animals, managing money and marketing.
Founded in 1928, the FFA gives students an opportunity apply agricultural education to real life. About 200 students take agricultural classes at Warner Robins High.
Ryan said the school has activities planned for every day of FFA Week in an effort to get the word out about FFA.
We are going to have an ag day, with different events planned so that students can learn some of what we are learning in ag class, said Ryan. We are also going to have the tip of the day on the announcements, so everyone can learn more about ag.
Other activities that week will include a farm open house, a coloring contest at an elementary school where students also will receive a plant from the Warner Robins High greenhouse, and a trip to a nursing home where residents will receive plants, birdhouses and floral arrangements made by FFA members.
We just want to raise awareness about what we do and about agriculture, said Brianna. Ag is all around us from the food we eat to the house we live in to the clothes we wear.
While the eggs presented to council members may have been a surprise, at least one councilmans wife was waiting on the eggs.
My daddy saw Mr. (Paul) Shealy the next day, and he told him that he was going to try and surprise his wife with the eggs but that she had watched the council on television and asked for them when he came in the door, said Brianna.
Sanders said having the farm at the school really helped the program grow.
It has been a total blessing. It has really brought a momentum to our program and created a spirit of excellence, Sanders said. The national FFA motto is, Learning to do, doing to learn, earning to live, living to serve, and that is exactly what students at Warner Robins High School are doing every day.

who'd you rather....
I've been working on a new portfolio recently as I haven't had one if 5 years, and the agents have been bugging! Spending the time and money to do it right while it's winter....anyway, working with my retoucher Bianca on a lot of images, and we had a fun little back and forth conversation about retouching, womens self image, the good, the bad, and the ugly of it all. I've posted these before and after images of a model I shot a couple of years ago for Mens Fitness for a story about sex. This image is the one that got us to talking. We had a good laugh about the fashion mag business and the mens mag business and how they want different things from the same image. The fashion books (think vogue and glamour) really want the skin to look flawless and the women look skinny. While the lad mags like mens fitness and maxim just want bigger boobs and ass! I'm not a big retoucher as I think the picture really starts to lose its soul if you do too much, but at the same time if done right it makes the soul of the picture alot better. I asked Bianca to do my normal "clean up" on the image while leaving it raw enough to keep its soul. This is alot of retouching for me, but hardly any for a fashion mag. If you look closely at the 2 images, you can see the skin gets a better glow and less ruddyness and generally a crisper feel. But Bianca also evened the boobs out. If you look at the boob on the right (and i'm sure you will, both men and women cause lets be honest, women are harsher and more judgmental on other women than men are. Men are pretty simple: "big boobs. good." women are more like "her boobs are ok but look like they're starting to sag. I'm glad i dont have boobs like that." am i right or am i right? you let me know. I personally think my boobs are perfect), you can see the unevenness of the cleavage, so she built cleavage on the right to match the boob on the left. You can also see around her arm pits that Bianca sculpted a bit to remove the little bulge and make it a sleeker image overall. The genie really is out of the bottle when it comes to retouching. Its amazing and scary what can be done to an image these days. It's pretty much impossible to have a good self image if you're a 16 year old girl trying to grow up. Conversely, it's pretty hard for a 16 year old boy to find a girl who's as perfect as the girls he sees in magazines. Anyway, thought you might find this interesting, I think I will do it more often with other images as well as it's pretty interesting. Click the images and they will open bigger in a new window so you can really see the difference. So, if you had the chance to blow bubbles with one of these girls, who'd you rather...

if the agents are bugging, is that good? anyway, i'd go with the girl on top. :-)

I agree with you about women being tougher critics when retouching other women's bodies. The uneven boobs, in this case, is charming. Makes sense because one shoulder is back more than the other. I'm a little sad to see the cute chubby armpit go away as well. Having wielded a markup pen side by side with women I know that they point that stuff out and ask me "don't you think that looks weird? We should fix that". I vote option number one. Although I like the skin in Bianca's version.
- March 8, 2010 at 4:54 PM
I would be happy with either of them :-) I just sometimes think that every single photo that is taken these days is manipulated and 'cooked'. I personally think that sometimes a little rawness is good.
Great article and thanks for Sharing.

cant say I noticed any problem with the first one until you said.I still prefer old school photos with all their flaws
- August 30, 2010 at 7:28 AM
- Jay said...
I much prefer the original. The flaws are what give someone character and the first photo has more character and more sex appeal as far as I'm concerned.
- August 30, 2010 at 10:33 AM
I have to say that I prefer the original only because the photoshop work done on her left arm (camera right) creeps me out. Her armpit line is so straight -- that's sent off alarm bells in my head without me knowing why at first. Straight lines don't exist on the human body.

Great photog and great (commercial) PP. But it could, because of her straight armpit line, easily be in photoshopdisasaters.

As a female photographer in the maternity, boudoir, and wedding business, I definitely feel the pressure to retouch my female clients photos to make them look their best. Women clients are extremely critical when it comes to photos of themselves, and are quick to notice their imperfections. Though I probably wouldn't have done as much to the skin, my editing eyes immediately honed in on the lop-sided cleavage and armpit- Would have done the same corrections myself. My husband often criticizes my retouching as being unethical, but IMHO I would appreciate the work being done on photos of me so I don't mind helping my clients feel beautiful by fixing the small imperfections (especially if they're due to imperfect lighting, clothing, or posing). I think this attention to detail is why female photographers are making advances in the wedding and portrait industry.
- August 30, 2010 at 8:17 PM
Comment on the retouched image, if you're looking at the image, I think you can see a photoshop flaw that's done on the subject's right armpit area.
- September 1, 2010 at 1:16 PM
Colour fix on the face is good and necessary, others, especially boob job is not. They look unreal, fake.

Second post, removed first for misspellings. I'm a huge fan of "beauty" processing and the job done on the image on the right is excellent. I believe in striving for the best image possible, and the capture is only half the issue. It is literally impossible to see every tiny flaw during capture and to correct it by shifting the model ever so slightly or by adding more makeup in areas that need it. You would be there all day long for one image. So these corrections must wait until post. And there is simply nothing wrong with giving a woman lovely skin. My opinions of course. My own processing experiments include images such as those in this series of posts: http://kimletkeman.blogspot.com/search?q=crombie

The newest section of I-405 finished completion in 1969. Then click Start -> Run, input cmd in the popped up dialog box, and click OK to enter DOS system. This was briefly mentioned in the introduction, but if you consider to finish this form of shift on your unique, you are taking on rather an undertaking. If the accident was a hit and run where the other vehicle involved failed to stop than ask the police to attempt to locate the other vehicle involved in the accident. The reliability of these batteries is absolute that they were made for military uses.

Grilled Mahi Mahi118 Reviews 2 Pics

"This recipe is great either on the grill or in the oven broiler. The tomatoes give it a little bite. My entire family loves it, even my pickiest eater. In the winter I make this dish in my oven or broiler. The amounts I gave are approximate. I use two cans of tomatoes when I want more 'bite,' only one can when I want less. I like a lot of garlic so I generally use a lot."

My husband needed a Mahi Mahi recipe fast, so we looked online and found this one. We both were so amazed at how wonderful the flavor is! He only had two fillets, and he kept the fillets whole and did not cube them. He used about three cloves of fresh garlic instead of the stuff in a jar. He also used red wine since we didn't have any white on hand. We also didn't have any diced tomatoes with the peppers; but we did have a can of diced tomatoes with basil, so he used that and added a bit of his dried red peppers. It was raining, so he put it into the oven and baked it at 450. We had no idea if we'd like this dish; so as soon as it came out of the oven, we both sampled it. It was so delicious that we ate it immediately. (We forgot the cheese.) The fish was very moist. This is a very easy recipe and the flavor was awesome! We both said we would definitely make this again.
Excellent, and very different fish recipe. I made a few changes: 1) Used olive oil instead of butter--was good, but next time I will try the butter (or do half and half oil and butter). 2) Did not have jarred garlic, so used garlic powder 3) Used bottled lemon juice, as I did not have fresh lemons 4) Used motzerrela cheese, as did not have pepperjack--next time I will try the pepperjack 5) Baked the fish at 350 for 30 minutes in a covered casserole dish instead of grilling 6) I added green and red bell peppers, yellow squash, mushrooms along with the onion--which really turned out very well Delicious--Great recipe--thanks!!
I don't want to rate this, because I was the one who submitted it..(smile)..For some reason one ingredient was not added. Onions, and lots of them. I usually use one of those really big ones, diced and spread all over the fish before the tomatoes. I am really glad you enjoyed this, because it really is so yummy!!

Eighth-grader Jack McGraw has dreamed of scoring a touchdown for his football team at Haines Middle School in St. Charles. His was a dream, however, that seemed unattainable.
But according to school officials, McGraw refused to let his dream die, despite his reliance on a wheelchair to get around. Thanks to his coaches, his teammates and the coaches and members of the opposing team — Batavia's Rotolo Middle School — Jack scored the first touchdown of his life last week during the St. Charles/Haines Middle School Football Invitational Tournament.
The St. Charles Community Unit School District 303 Board of Education on Tuesday recognized Jack, his coaches and teammates at Haines, and the Rotolo Middle School football team and coaches for the display of character, compassion that came together to fulfill a dream, against the odds.
"Tonight's a special occasion when sometimes a sport and what we do in school sometimes supersedes everything else," said Dr. Donald Schlomann, District 303's superintendent, speaking to the board and a room filled with students wearing football jerseys. "Tonight we have a chance to honor some students and adults that had a special meaning on an individual's life, and quite frankly had an impact on their own lives as well."
It was an amazing day, by all accounts, and reflects not only on Jack's resilience, but also the character of the coaches and players on two middle school football teams.
Jack has cerebral palsy, which according to the U.S. National Library of Medicine, "is a group of disorders that can involve brain and nervous system functions, such as movement, learning, hearing, seeing, and thinking."
Schlomann said that during the final minutes of the game, the Rotolo team, on fourth down, "took a knee," turning over possession of the ball to Haines.
"Haines was able to put in an individual who is very special to the students here today, and that's Jack McGraw, and Jack is here tonight," Schlomann said as the room erupted in applause. "They did something that was very special for him. …"
It came down to the snap, then a handoff by the quarterback to Jack, who cradled the football in his hand and steered his wheelchair into the end zone.
It was, Schlomann said, "a bench-clearer."
If you watch the video, you can see clearly that players from both teams joined the fans in cheering Jack on to his touchdown.
Schlomann extended the district's thanks to the Haines coaches and football players, to the Rotolo Middle School team and coaches, and to District 303 employee Jerry O'Brien, also the parent of a Rotolo student, for filming the touchdown.
"Usually, as in this case, there's not a dry eye in the house," Schlomann said as he thanked everyone involved. Jack's touchdown was perhaps more personally felt by Schlomann, who explained that he grew up with a brother and a sister who each had cerebral palsy.
"This was a special thing for me as well," he acknowledged.
"I'm not sure who's more fortunate — is Jack more fortunate? Or are the team members who know Jack that are more fortunate?" Schlomann asked. "It seems that maybe it's the team members who know Jack."
Schlomann added his thanks to Rotolo coaches David Jonathan, Steve Jordan and Albert Dyer, and to Haines coaches Sean Masoncup, Jim McCarron and Jeff Otterby.
"I can't tell you enough, again, how much this means to the board of education, to myself and to the community," Schlomann said. "This was a community event. Jack, we're extremely proud of you. We are just grateful you are part of our team, and we're excited to have you be here."
District 303 Board President Steven Spurling, a grin on his face, said he was jealous of McGraw. "He has one more touchdown than I ever had," Spurling said to laughter from the crowd and an enthusiastic response from McGraw.
"Congratulations Jack," said board member Jim Gaffney. "Thank you, and to all the young men that represent our school, it's a great honor that you did for this young man — thank you all."
Perhaps Schlomann summed it up best when he made a final remark to the Haines students:
"Wins and losses are great, but it's experiences like this that you'll remember for the rest of your life."

Oakley Dominates Dauphine
Oakley completely dominated the Critérium du Dauphiné Libéré, an annual cycling road race run over eight stages in the Dauphiné region in France, by taking the top three places and the final stage victory.
While Oakley's Alexandre Vinokourov of Kazakhstan won the final stage, a 129-kilometer trek in the southern Alps, teammate Christophe Moreau proved that at 36, he remains France's leading stage race specialist when he won the overall for the second time in his career. Moreau beat Oakley's Cadel Evans of Australia by 14 seconds overall.
In addition to the Dauphiné domination, Oakley and Radar saw similar success in Switzerland when Fabian Cancellara took a huge bite out of his rivals on Saturday and won the 2007 Tour de Suisse's prologue by eight seconds.

Very few local Civil War artifacts remain because the 1889 Johnstown Flood washed countless medals, guns, uniforms and diaries away.
So, if the Johnstown Area Heritage Association was ever going to put on a fitting display to commemorate the conflict that occurred less than three full decades before the disaster, it was going to need some help.
Enter the Senator John Heinz History Center.
On Friday, the Pittsburgh-based Smithsonian Institution, in conjunction with JAHA, opened a traveling exhibit called "The Civil War in Pennsylvania" inside the Heritage Discovery Center, located in the Cambria City section of town. The museum contributed displays about important western Pennsylvania figures from the war that lasted from 1861 to 1865. JAHA and the city's Grand Army of the Republic chapter rounded out the exhibit with local artifacts and biographical sketches of residents, including W. Horace Rose, who was injured at the Battle of Piedmont before becoming the first mayor of a consolidated Johnstown.
"It's wonderful for us because it's an opportunity that we rarely have to really talk about the Civil War in Johnstown because we have so few artifacts and objects because of the flood, so it's rare," said Heritage Discovery Center curator Kaytlin Sumner. "For us to put together our own exhibit would be a little bit more of a stretch because we couldn't put together something of this magnitude and have as many artifacts to display within it."
JAHA members attended a special grand opening of the exhibition on Friday, presented by Peoples Natural Gas and supported by the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
"I'm a Civil War buff. ... The opportunity to come down and see it before it really opens, I just thought that was a good opportunity," said Lira Pridgen, a Johnstown resident.
Beginning today, the display will be open to the public through March 5. Entrance is included with a standard museum admission.
Visitors will get the chance to learn about Pittsburgh abolitionist Martin Delany, Erie's Strong Vincent, who rallied Union troops during the fierce battle of Little Round Top at Gettysburg, and others involved in the bloody conflict. There is also a display paying tribute to the 78 civilians, mostly young women, who died during an explosion at Allegheny Arsenal in the Lawrenceville neighborhood of Pittsburgh.
"(The Civil War) didn't take place in western Pennsylvania for the most part," said JAHA marketing and communications director Shelley Johansson. "We don't have battlefields here and so on. So, what's kind of neat about this exhibit is that it shows a little bit about the Civil War from a more western Pennsylvania perspective."

A Salem, Mass., man is being held without bail after he allegedly kidnapped a woman in Connecticut and brought her back to Danvers to work against her will as a prostitute.
James "Sonny" Morse, 38, of 72 Highland Ave., Salem faces charges of attempted murder, kidnapping, assault and battery, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, resisting arrest, deriving support from prostitution and detaining or drugging a person in a brothel.
After his arraignment on Friday at , Judge Matthew Nestor ordered Morse held without bail at Middleton Jail. He is scheduled for a dangerousness hearing on Tuesday.
It started on Sunday when police said that Morse allegedly approached a 26-year-old woman who was walking down a street in Stamford, Conn. He told the woman that he had money and the victim offered to clean his house.
Morse allegedly had two other women with him that he runs an escort service and said they were working for him. Those two women are not facing charges. She told the victim she could not leave.
Morse allegedly took the victim at first to a hotel in Stamford and then drove to another hotel in Providence, R.I. the next day. On the drive there Morse allegedly told the victim that he had a gun.
They were in Providence for two days and on Wednesday drove to Danvers, where they checked in at .
That's when Morse actually left with one of the other women that was working him, saying that they needed to go to New York for a court date for one of the women. But the victim stayed in the Danvers hotel room with the other women and an ad for her was placed on backpage.com that lead to "relations" with 10 men, the victim told police.
After returning from New York early Thursday morning, Morse allegedly punched her, used a pillow to try to suffocate her and hit her with a clothes hanger. Police also alleged that he forced her to strip naked and whipped her with a belt. Not long after returning from New York, he checked into another room with one of the other women. When he left the room and the women who was left in the room with her fell asleep at about 10 a.m. on Thursday, the victim went down to the front desk at the hotel and asked them to call police.
Officer Jarod Waterman arrived and heard the victim's story of being kidnapped in Connecticut and being brought to Danvers. A records check found that the woman had been reported missing in Connecticut.
Waterman called for backup and went to the hotel room - with a maintenance worker who had a key - where Morse was allegedly staying. At first the maintenance worker told Morse, through the door, that he needed to get in because of a maintenance issue. When there was no response, they used the key to open the door but the interior lock was being used. Along with Officer Adam French, Officer Derek Colella and Detective Sgt. William Carleton, they told Morse that it was the , they had a warrant for his arrest and forced open the door.
Morse had two outstanding warrants, for malicious destruction of property from both Brockton and Lynn district courts.
After a struggle where Morse allegedly tried to tuck his hands under himself as he moved toward the bed, he was arrested. After the arrest, "large amounts of cash" fell to the floor. Police said they recovered $6,453 in cash from the room.
The woman staying in the room with him was found naked and wrapped in a blanket.
In addition to the cash, police also seized 5.3 grams of marijuana, a cell phone, two laptop computers from Morse.

Why is your business under-performing? How do we get to the next level?
Many small & medium-sized businesses struggle due to a lack of an effective marketing and sales program. You may be very good at your core business, but know very little about marketing. You are innocently caught up in a love for your own products or services and believe the world will indeed beat a path to your door when people hear about you.
Another reason for failure is that an effective marketing campaign is hard work. Since marketing is probably not what motivated you to open your business, it receives less priority than product development and other tasks. Marketing also often comes up short when scarce funds are allocated. Sadly, there are companies that spend tens of thousands of dollars on furniture and equipment, while complaining that there is nothing left for marketing.
Some companies also make a mistake by hiring expensive advertising agencies that are incapable of cost-effective, low-budget marketing. Or they hire marketing and sales talent from big companies who are often clueless about how to get results on a limited budget.
Given the reality of this situation, you need to squeeze as much efficiency as possible out of every marketing dollar. Be assured that you can do a lot on a limited budget, and expensive does not always mean better.

One of things that most fascinates me about cooking is how a very slight change in technique, even using the same ingredients, will produce a very different end result. We've already explored on this blog the ripassare technique, perhaps the most common in central and southern Italian vegetable cookery, in which parboiled vegetables are then sautéed in garlic-infused oil. The result is a rather soft and mellow vegetable that readily absorbs the taste of its cooking medium. Today we will take a look at a technique (strascinati, literally "dragged") where you simply skip the initial parboiling and sauté the vegetable—typically, broccoli—resulting in a much firmer texture and 'nuttier' more intense flavor. This technique, typical of Rome, though perhaps not the prettiest way to make broccoli, it is one of the tastiest.
Serves 4-6 as a contorno or side dish
- 1 head of broccoli
- 2-3 cloves of garlic, peeled and slightly crushed
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- Water or white wine
- Peperoncino, to taste
Trim and cut the broccoli into bite-sized pieces, cutting off the flowerets first and then cutting the larger ones in half or quarters.
In a sauté pan large enough to hold all the broccoli, sauté the garlic gently in a generous amount of oil, along with the peperoncino if using. When the garlic has turned a very light brown, remove it.
Add the broccoli pieces, turn them so they are entirely covered in the seasoned oil, seasoning well as you turn. Cover the pan and let the broccoli simmer until tender, turning from time to time—not too often or too vigorously, or you will smash the broccoli as it begins to get tender. The natural liquid of the broccoli will 'steam' the vegetable, but if things look dry, add a bit of water or white wine from time to time.
When the broccoli is tender, check and adjust for seasoning. Serve immediately.
Ana Boni, the doyenne of Roman cookery, calls this dish broccolo a crudo alla romana, 'crudo' meaning raw, referring to the fact that you don't parboil the vegetable first in the usual way. The dish She recommends serving the broccoli on a bed of carrot sticks, either as a side course or a vegetarian main course.
Although I've never tried it, I have to imagine that other cruciferous vegetables like cauliflower, broccoli rabe or the new-fangled broccolini would do very well here. Perhaps even Brussels sprouts?
For those who don't like spicy food, you can omit the peperoncino, although it is typical. And if you can't find peperoncino, red pepper flakes will do; just be sure to add them just before you add the broccoli so they don't burn.

PLAYERS: Devonta Freeman, E.J. Manuel, Shawn Petty, Kevin Dorsey, Levern Jacobs, Dustin Hopkins, Rashad Greene, James Wilder Jr.
TEAMS: Florida State Seminoles, Virginia Tech Hokies, Maryland Terrapins
TEAMS: Florida State Seminoles, Virginia Tech Hokies, Maryland Terrapins
COLLEGE PARK, Md. -- Devonta Freeman ran for 148 yards and two touchdowns, Florida State's top-ranked defense lived up to its billing and the No. 10 Seminoles rolled past Maryland 41-14 Saturday to earn a spot in the Atlantic Coast Conference championship game. Florida State (10-1, 7-1) led 27-0 at halftime and cruised to its fifth straight victory. The Seminoles clinched the league's Atlantic Division title for the second time in three years and will play for its 13th ACC crown on Dec. 1. EJ Manuel completed 17 of 23 passes for 144 yards and two scores to supplement a running game that gained 237 yards. In their previous game at Virginia Tech, the Seminoles were held to minus-15 yards rushing. Operating against an injury-plagued Maryland team using a linebacker at quarterback, Florida State allowed 27 yards and three first downs before halftime and ended up giving up 170 yards -- well below their nation's best average of 242.9 per game. Were it not for a 42-yard touchdown pass from Shawn Petty to Kevin Dorsey with 25 seconds left, the Seminoles would have held the opposition under 10 points for the sixth time in 11 games. The defeat formally ended any chance Maryland had of becoming bowl eligible. The Terrapins (4-7, 2-5) have dropped five straight, the last three by a collective 119-37 score. Maryland's skid coincides with the loss of its top four quarterbacks with season-ending injuries. Making his third straight start, Petty went 8 for 19 for 136 yards and two touchdowns but lost a fumble. Any reasonable hope the Terrapins had of pulling off an upset vanished after the Seminoles scored two touchdowns in a 12-second span to take a 14-0 lead with less than six minutes elapsed. Maryland won the toss, deferred and promptly yielded an 11-play, 61-yard drive that ended with a 5-yard run by Freeman. Levern Jacobs fumbled the subsequent kickoff, FSU recovered at the 10 and Manuel threw a first-down touchdown pass to tight end Nick O'Leary. Late in the first quarter, Petty botched a handoff and the Seminoles recovered the fumble at the Maryland 32. After 15 minutes, the Seminoles had a 111-18 advantage in total yardage. On the second play of the second quarter, Dustin Hopkins kicked a 26-yard field goal to make it 17-0 and set a Football Bowl Subdivision record for career points by a kicker (442). He added six more points to extend the mark to 448. Florida State's next drive began with a 21-yard pass from Manuel to O'Leary and ended with a 40-yard field goal. Late in the half, Manuel directed a 70-yard march that ended with his 30-yard touchdown pass to Rashad Greene. In the third quarter, Petty threw a 33-yard touchdown pass to Dorsey on a fourth-down play. It was the final home game for Dorsey and 16 other Maryland seniors, all of whom never got the satisfaction of defeating a top-10 team. Florida State went up 34-7 late in the third quarter. After Freeman ran for 47 yards on a third-and-1, he scored on the next play from the 2. With Manuel and Freeman watching from the sideline, the Seminoles added a fourth-quarter touchdown on a 22-yard run by James Wilder Jr.

Debian 2.2 Potato: Memorial to a Hacker
Manufacturer: Debian/GNU Linux
E-Mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
URL: www.debian.org
Price: Available from various CD-ROM vendors or free via download from the Debian web site
Reviewer: Stephanie Black
There's a lot to be said for an organization that not only depends on volunteers to develop its distribution and continually work to improve it, but acknowledges the contributions of those who participate in its growth.
In July of this year, Debian lost one of its more celebrated developers, Joel "Espy" Klecker, to Duchenne's Muscular Dystrophy. Debian, true to its philosophy, has recognized Joel's vast contributions by dedicating the Debian 2.2 release to his memory. (The written dedication can be viewed at ftp.debian.org/debian/doc/dedication-2.2.txt.)
The distribution itself is beginning to display the same kind of generosity. Debian's reputation has been further from the "novice-user" category than many distributions; this is slowly beginning to change. From installation to usage to tweaking, Debian 2.2 is a release that is fun for the techies and, well, much less of a Waterloo for novice Debian users.

There is all manner of documentation and clear instruction for obtaining the required boot, root and driver disks with which to install Debian (available at www.debian.org/releases/2.2/i386/install). There is also a caveat about expecting perfect boot disks in one go. Good floppy disks make things easier and faster.
While not all users have DSL, the network installation of Debian proves itself to be sturdy and straightforward, even when using a command-line interface. Within a half hour, the installation was complete. This is probably the most significant change in Debian: easy download and installation via FTP.
The user is offered a choice of simple or advanced installation: the former provides a quick installation of some of the more commonly used packages through a selection of application types (e.g., C++ Development, GNOME games, etc.); the latter allows the more seasoned Debian user to select individual packages. dselect (which, as of this writing, is to be usurped by a new installer in future releases) provides dependency checking and simplifies additional package retrieval and configuration.
Generally, dselect takes care of configuring most packages, allowing the user both the option of keeping the .deb packages and of setting up a running system. In an FTP download, the pertinent network configuration takes place prior to installation for obvious reasons. For some "non-free" packages, the user will be required to download additional software from sites hosting the original software first, such as the case of Real Player or IBM's JDK, and then obtain the remainder of the package via apt-get before configuration can take place. It's a bit detailed but worth it for the software. In addition, there are some packages that aren't permitted to be distributed in anything other than source packages. These require building; the process was, in the case of Pine, clearly laid out in the README. The resulting packages are then built into .deb files installable by dpkg.
I'm a bit on the lazy side and don't like wasting good prewritten code. There are some scripts included with Fetchmail that preclude much of the headaches that some associate with setting up a mail client. These scripts are found in </usr/doc/fetchmail/contrib> and prove extremely useful to those new to, or uncomfortable with, MTA's.
Debian has a long-lived reputation for stability that has made it attractive to companies like Storm, Libranet and Corel, all three of which have capitalized on Debian's lack of easy installation. It's apparent that those who are installing Potato from a CD are likely to run into problems with, among other things, disks that have errors on them. I haven't heard if this is strictly the case with official CDs; if not, Debian may want to look at putting QA restrictions on those producing unofficial versions of the installation media. The network installation has improved tremendously, however, both in speed and security of the download.
The 4.x series of XFree86 is not included in this release, but the developers are in the process of adding it to the next release, or so I've been told. This would be a marked improvement; the current version of 3.3.6x is, at best, erratic. Xservers don't work (and don't not-work) with any kind of consistency. There are still issues with GLX (and the drivers thereof) for certain cards. RIVA-based cards (G-Matrox, among others) are rumored to be wanting more of the support provided in the XFree86 4.x series. To be fair, this problem is not specific to Debian.
The selection of packages in 2.2 is rivaled only by that of SuSE Linux and predictably runs the same risks—so many choices, so many dependencies and so many package conflicts. The choice is good, but several of the packages are in need of updating. This is especially obvious in the vast numbers of libraries included, many of which are present for nothing more than backward compatibility. (Anyone willing to volunteer to fix this?) The variety in the kinds of applications included is stellar, from math and science applications to games, editors and GUIs. The "corporates" don't have much to rejoice about in Debian, but there are certainly lots of tools and toys for developers, graphic artists, academics and hobbyists.
Debian isn't intended for the absolute Linux newbie. Help is available, however, from the users, list <email@example.com>, which is quite active; most list members are willing to show new "Debs" the ropes. Be warned: traffic on this list is extensive (upwards of 500 messages daily).
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

SOURCE Pennsylvania Department of Labor & Industry
HARRISBURG, Pa., May 7, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Governor's Achievement Award was presented today by state workforce development agencies – the departments of Aging, Labor & Industry, Education and Public Welfare – and the Pennsylvania Workforce Development Association to 11 employers and training providers for outstanding hiring and workforce development success. The awards are jointly sponsored to recognize exceptional employers and training providers in workforce development.
"The accomplishments of these employers make a tremendous positive impact on our already exemplary workforce," said Governor Tom Corbett. "By way of example they are setting the stage for others to follow and continue Pennsylvania's strong economic growth."
Winners were recognized at the 30th annual Pennsylvania Workforce Development Association Employment, Training and Education Conference at the Hershey Lodge.
"The businesses recognized today are what Pennsylvania needs to strengthen its workforce and build a strong economic future," said Labor & Industry Secretary Julia Hearthway. "These employers' dedication to overcoming workforce barriers and to aiding in the development of Pennsylvania's workers serves as an example for the entire business community."
Hearthway was represented at the awards ceremony by Michelle Staton, deputy secretary for workforce development.
"We're pleased to honor employers who have made special efforts to hire and retain older workers," said Secretary of Aging Brian Duke. "We thank employers for their dedication to providing opportunities for older Pennsylvanians who wish to remain in the workforce."
Duke was represented at the awards ceremony by Steven Horner, director of the Bureau of Aging Services.
"The employers honored today recognize the importance of investing in their fellow Pennsylvanians," said Public Welfare Secretary Beverly Mackereth. "I thank them for taking the extra step to help our clients become self-sufficient."
Mackereth was represented at the awards ceremony by Brandon Danz, a senior advisor to Secretary Mackereth.
"Across the state, career and technology centers are joining with local employers to provide students with opportunities to gain real-world working experience," said Acting Secretary of Education Carolyn Dumaresq. "The partnership between award winners Forbes Road Career and Technology Center and Point Spring and Driveshaft Company is an excellent example of the education and business communities working together to prepare today's students for the workforce of tomorrow."
Dumaresq was represented at the awards ceremony by Lee Burket, director of the Bureau of Career and Technical Education.
The Pennsylvania Workforce Development Association, the voice of the Pennsylvania workforce investment system and a clearinghouse for workforce development information statewide, sponsors this annual conference, which attracts more than 800 private and public job training experts from across Pennsylvania.

Top 7 Highlights from Mayim Bialik's Appearance on "Real Time with Bill Maher"
I was on "Real Time with Bill Maher" last Friday, Valentine's Day. Here are the highlights:
1. Bill.
I like Bill Maher quite a bit. So being a guest on his show was extra pressure because I like him and respect him and didn't want to come off like a dolt.
2. The Other Dudes.
Um. Jeremy Scahill? You are seriously smart. Like really smart. You remind me of my UCLA Marxism professor I had a huge crush on because he was super duper serious and cerebral and you didn't know if he ever laughed but you wanted to be the girl who made him laugh. Never mind. I have issues. Anyway. Jeremy Scahill and Eric Klinenberg and Dylan Ratigan? You're all super smart. Bill Nye the Science Guy as the first guest? Super duper smart and eloquent. Didn't want to come off like a dolt in front of these men.
3. A Natural Woman.
I am very sensitive to situations where I feel so… female. Like on the Bill Maher show. I was especially nervous about coming off like a dolt because then people might say, "Oh, that woman said something dumb." Read the rest of this entry →
