"Malaysia my home" Malaysia by andrewyong
Malaysia Travel Guide: 29,439 reviews and 76,005 photos
Selamat Datang! Welcome!
If you happen to drop by my country, you will find that it is as diverse as Asia herself in terms of food and the mix of people who you will meet. Everyone should be proud of their own country and I am indeed proud of mine. (There is a difference though between patriotism, nationalism and extreme right wing and many times the lines are blurred. If you visit my Amsterdam page, you will see my reflections on the Anne Frank's Museum, which has a very interesting interactive exhibit at the end. And yet, people still seem not to care, even with the last 2000 years of reminders).
Otherwise, Malaysia is progrssing towards better things as we find our place within the world community and we are in an exciting time of change physically, politically, economically and socially.
I'm a lover of geography and history and it is exciting to observe the fast-changing world with my country riding the tide with it.

Malaysia - "Negara Ku" (My Country)
Words by: collectively, led by Tunku Abdul Rahman
Music by: Pierre Jean de Beranger
Adopted: 1957
Negara ku
Tanah tumpahnya darahku,
(My country, my native land)
Rakyat hidup, bersatu dan maju,
(The people living united and progressive)
Rahmat bahagia, tuhan kurniakan,
( May God bestow blessing and happiness)
Raja kita, selamat bertahta,
(May our Ruler have a successful reign)
Rahmat bahagia, tuhan kurniakan,
( May God bestow blessing and happiness)
Raja kita, selamat bertahta.
(May our Ruler have a successful reign)
Before independence in 1957, each of the (then) eleven states of Malaysia had their own anthem (which they have retained to this day), but there was no unifying anthem for the whole country. When independence was approaching, Tunku Abdul Rahman, then the Chief Minister and Minister for Home Affairs (later Malaysia's first prime minister), led a committee to select a new anthem. Hundreds were recieved, but none were deemed suitable. Finally, the anthem for the Malaysian state of Perak was considered, and the melody, due to its "traditional flavour" was selected to be the melody for the new anthem.
In 1888 the Sultan of Perak was invited by Queen Victoria as a guest. When the Sultan's aide was asked what the anthem of Perak was, so that it could be played upon his formal arrival, the aide, not wanting to be embarrassed by saying that Perak did not have an anthem, perhaps giving the impression that his country was "backwards", proceeded to hum a favourite tune of his from the Seychelles, which is believed to have been composed by Pierre Jean Beranger. It was, therefore, from that moment on, the tune for the state anthem of Perak (and later Malaysia).
After an Indonesian opera performed it in Singapore (at the time, part of Malaysia), the tune became popular throughout all of Malaysia in the 1920s and 1930s as the love song "Terang Bulan" (Moonlight). ("Terang Bulan" is now forbidden to be performed in Malaysia.)
Once the melody was selected, new lyrics had to be written for it. The panel of judges charged with selecting a new anthem wrote the lyrics, with Tunku Abdul Rahman leading the group.
Special thanks to: Zein al-A'bideen Ayyoubi for providing me (the writer) with the sheet music.

I was pretty much in exactly the same boat. I also bought this game on launch day and didn't get a single achievement for a couple years. Then one random day in 2008 one of my friends came over and wanted to play it because he's a huge Nintendo Rare fan. We played for a little bit on multiplayer where I quickly earned some of the 10 kill achievements but that's all I ever earned. Actually I'm pretty sure that's the last time I even had the game on. But for whatever reason I decided I should try to 1000 point it yesterday, so I started playing again and unlocked a few more achievements last night.

Nick Cannon Says Daughter Is A Diva Just Like Her MamaDanielle Sullivan
New dad Nick Cannon says his two-month-old twins, Monroe and Moroccan take after him and wife Mariah Carey in the temperament department.
Cannon told US Weekly that his son is very clam, just like him, but his daughter is another story:
"My son is laid back like me. My daughter's a diva like her mom! When my daughter wants something, she'll let you know immediately. With [our son], you kind of feed him when you get around to it, and he's okay with that."
The proud pap gushed about his babies and then their mommy, adding, "She's amazing. She's the best mother ever."

They said you bought the stand that was in display right now and we will get more stock next week. (But when i bought it Ibought it brand new for 98$)
Called them in 4 days they said we cant get you a new one because it was clearance and the manufacture said they cant complete there backorder.
They wont give me a good deal like that stand cause it was reg.400$ sale 100$ for another one.
they want me to take the refund or a store credit
Basically they sold me the product on BD morning and i woke up early just to buy it with my family and They think its okay to sell someone something out of stock without telling them but the thing was that they said you bought the last one today and i bought it and told the cashier i would like to pick it up later and it says that on my reciept to but i went and they said oh sorry were sold out you can wait for next week or you can take a refund and i wanted that stand so i just waited and never expected something like this which they tell me they ran out and cant give me a new one.

wait what? i really don't understand what you are saying...
are you saying they won't give you a stand at all now? if so why do they still have your money? i don't understand how that can happen at all, from visions and from you.
if they sold you a demo/clearance that's one thing, and imo, understandable. but then it should have been yours as soon as you paid for it, sounds like you're saying they sold it twice and the other person picked it up first so now you're screwed. if that's what happened, i don't see why they wouldn't give you the same stand as soon as the next order arrived.
if they still have your money, and you have a receipt/order for a stand, i'd raise a little heck and give them a shot to fulfill their agreement. i would not wait around for the 'next shipment' though. i'd cut my losses and bail at that point. that's when things start to turn bad, when they have your money already.
i'm still at a loss though. i've never even heard of a situation where a product was sold 'by mistake'. either it's a raincheck, the product is yours, or they screwed up and owe you a comparable product at the same price IF you accept that.

They said they wont give me another stand beacause they wont get anymore.
They told me to come to the store to take a refund.
They sold me a brand new one but they oversold basically they had 10 but sold them to 11 people so i got screwed cause i told them i would pick it up in the afternoon. Now they said they wont get anymore so they said take your refund.
They are not getting anymore because the company the product comes from wont give anymore they stopped making them.
But i bought it from the store thinking im getting it the same day as any other person that buys products.
They said it was clearance when i called but when i saw it in the flyer it never said it was clearance. Visons said they wont get anymore because it was clearence.
They took my money without giving my product will go there tomorrow and see what happens.
Went and bought the last one
Salesman: Would you like to pick it up later or now?
me: ill pick it up around 3
Salesman: ok just go to the back and talk to ryan to pick it up.
Ryan: hi do you have ur reciept?
me: yes
Ryan: oh sorry this product is gone but you can i either get a refund or wait for more stock.
I waited for 4 days and called
Me: hi have you received the stand yet for me which i bought on BD
Salesman: Sorry but we will not receive anymore TV stands and you can come by someday to get your refund.
Me: i said ok because i was so confused at that moment
Basically they took my money without giving me my tv stand . weird eh?
When i called they said it was clearance but in the flyer it doesn't say it was clearance so that's why they said they wont get anymore because the product was clearance yet they sold it to me.
I will post again too tell what happens but This was a total FRAUD took my money without giving my product

definitely very screwy...
in my opinion, the 'right' thing for visions to do is to at least compensate you with a gift card. i mean, this would be frustrating at any time of the year, but it's actually likely to cost you money at this point. by not giving you the opportunity to buy from another store during boxing day sales, they are forcing you to pay more(hence the gift cert).
the rest of your story sounds like a pretty typical experience. there's a lot of clearance items being sold that won't or can't be reordered. when they're gone they're gone. and miscommunication is not unheard of during the rush of boxing day. it's just the way they are handling it now that is bothersome.
lesson for you(not that you're really at fault here), is to take whatever you buy with you, especially if it's clearance stuff. that could have prevented this whole issue for you. again, you shouldn't NEED to, but i'm sure you won't want to risk going through this again.

But still they cant do that becuause i bought the product and they cant just sell more and say we have nothing left they can only sell what they have and i bought what they had so i think i should basically be the one walking out with another tv stand
Jan 2nd, 2013 03:22 AM #23
imo customer service isn't about not making mistakes, it's about how they handle mistakes.
you didn't 'buy what they had left' because you didn't take it with you. chances are a different sales rep saw it on the floor, being clearance items it was probably not 'in the computer' or anything like that, so they sold it. i'm not saying it's right, but it is excusable, IF they own up to it and help you out.
when you go in, i can't stress this enough, focus on what you want to get from them for their mistake, NOT on their mistake. you are still dealing with a person, and ppl don't like being told they f'd up. they want to hear solutions.
ie. you accidentally sold my stand, it happens, but now you owe it to me to make it right. i want a stand, i don't want to pay any more than i already have, what can you do for me?
is a whole lot more productive that...
you sold my stand, it was MY stand, i paid for it. how can you possibly sell the same stand twice? and now all you want is to give me my money back? I want MY stand that i PAID for already!
trust me, there's a reason some people get back customer service everywhere they go while others seem to get great customer service almost everywhere.

I don't think any electronics retailer could say that they haven't had issues like this after boxing week. This is something that although it isn't very common, does occur and is usually something we can resolve immediately, without a loss to the consumer.
Why this happened, is just as speculated in previous posts. Unfortunately; during extremely busy times human error can complicate our inventory system. While we do our best to ensure that our systems eliminate this variable, it is something we realize will always occur during a day like Boxing Day even if it is not very common. In this instance, we oversold on a product with limited availability. It appears as though the staff's first idea to rectify this situation was to refund your money. There are certain circumstances where this is our only option but based on what I am reading, the best course of action in this scenario should have been to get you something of equal value (equal value to you) and to do it as soon as possible.
HecticDeals: Can I please bother you to email email@example.com with your contact information, invoice number, and the store in which you were dealing with?
We will put you in touch with the General Manager of that location and ensure right away that this issue is resolved and turned into a positive situation for you.
I think this might also be a good time to properly explain our rebate program as I know it has been debated here a few times.
Not from a Visions Electronics stand point, but from a personal standpoint, our rebate program truly is a positive program. Despite what has been mentioned on some postings on the forum about it, it truly was introduced for one reason, and that was to work as sort of a "profit sharing" principal to reward return customers. It truly is a program that exists purely for customer service, and to help existing customers on future purchases.
Do you need warranty? Do you not? can be debated (and has been debated on this forum) for years. We wanted to make this decision easier, and we know that we have. If you purchase an extended warranty with us (By the way, do you know we offer 7 years on the TV's now for the price of a 4 year?) and don't make a claim against your warranty, we will refund you the amount of your warranty in the form of an in-store credit.
Yes, there are stipulations. While some people have posted on here these stipulations are a rip off, the consensus seems to be that this plan still beats out competitors (which is part of our goal). We feel these stipulations are fair, and an unfortunate necessity to still maintain this program and offer a better Extended Service Plan to our customers than our competitors.
1. The credit can only be used on regular/sale priced items (No, this does not mean full price as some people have argued here on RFD. This only means that you can't further barter with the salespeople). If you see a good sale, by all means you can use your rebate on that sale item.
2. There is a minimum purchase. The goal is not to go out of business by offering free product to any and all customers, it is to help return customers on their next purchase. If your warranty was purchased after December 31, 2009, your rebate can not exceed 50% of the total $ amount of the invoice (unlimited number of items, just the total of the actual invoice before tax). The invoice total will need to be greater than twice the value of your rebate. For instance, if your have a $50 rebate then your invoice has to total $100 or more of regular product. It could be 2 items of $50, or 4 items of $25 as long as it equals $100 or more. If your rebate was $200, your invoice must be $400 or more before tax.
3. Time Limit. This has been actively debated and consumers don't often understand why we have the time limit. To be honest we wish we could do away with this limit but any Accounting Auditor could spend a few hours explaining the unfortunate reasons why we need to have a time limit on the program. You have 12 months, from the date of creation. All rebates are automatically created the day the warranty expired. So in best terms, the rebate is good for one year form the date that your warranty expired.
4. Rebates can not be combined with any other rebate, incentive or offer.
Please, if you have any issues with your experience at Visions Electronics, speak with the General Manager at your location. We empower our General Managers as much as possible to help instantly take care of any customer service issues. We don't want our customers having to go to forums just to get heard, or to our head office just to get resolutions. If you are having an issue with the General Manager, or he is not able to help you, then please email firstname.lastname@example.com and we will do our best to put you in touch with someone that WILL help you. We pride ourselves on having one of the highest percentages of customers that return to purchase within our industry. Please, come to the store and speak with us about your issues just as though you were sitting down with a friend. We will honestly do our best to help you.
Thank you!

Hey HecticDeals,
Glad to hear you are going to down to the store. I am sure the store will be able to make good on this, but just in case they don't, please email us at email@example.com. Quote my name (Jamie) and the email will be forwarded to me.
Thanks again!

Get ready to add a guilty pleasure to your summer reading list. Lauren Conrad's highly anticipated debut novel, L.A. Candy, has released a sneak peak to Teen Vogue.
In her new book, the heroine of her story is 19-year-old Jane Roberts, who moves to Hollywood and ends up the star of her own reality show. Sound familiar? Art imitates life for The Hills star's story but she says it's all fictional. "Some of the characters may symbolize people in my life," Conrad said, "but it is in no way calling anyone out."
Just like her real life, Conrad's Jane deals with the drama of relationships with a guy named Paolo.
From the book: Paolo smiled at her. He had the cutest smile. "Hey, this may be a little forward, but … could I call you sometime? Maybe we could go out for coffee or something? I just moved here from San Francisco, and I don't know too many people in town."
Jane was taken aback by his boldness. They had met all of 60 seconds ago. Still, he did kinda look like a young Brad Pitt. Besides, when was the last time she'd been on a date? "Sure," she said.
Jane blinked. Oh, yeah. The cameras were still rolling. Paolo was being filmed. But he didn't seem fazed by it.
L.A. Candy hits stores June 16, and is the first in a three-book deal.

This advice applies to England. Change country
Driving tests
The driving test
A driving test is made up of a theory test and a practical test. You cannot normally take the practical test without first having passed the theory test.
However, some people are exempt from taking the theory test. You can find further information about who is exempt from taking the theory test at www.gov.uk.
You have to pay a fee for each part of the test - for details, see under heading Fees.
Before you can apply for a test, you must have a valid Great Britain or Northern Ireland provisional driving licence.
The theory test
The theory test is in two parts. The first is a computerised touch screen test in which you have to select the correct answer from a number of choices. The second part is called the hazard perception test. You will be shown a set of video clips of driving hazards and asked to click the mouse button as soon as you spot a hazard. You have to pass both parts of the theory test at the same sitting in order to pass.
The practical test
You cannot take the practical test until you have passed the theory test unless you are exempt - see under heading The theory test. The practical test will test your ability to exercise adequate control of your vehicle and to drive independently and normally lasts 40 minutes. If you have a physical disability, you will be asked to demonstrate any special controls on your vehicle.
The practical test also includes an eyesight check and two questions on vehicle safety, designed to make sure that you know how to check the safety of your vehicle. Topics covered are, tyres, brakes, fluids, lights, reflectors, direction indicators, and horns.
You must have completed a course of compulsory basic training (CBT) before applying for a motorcycle test, and must show your CBT certificate when you take your practical test. Information on the CBT is available from the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) on 0115 936 6547.
If you fail, or do not take the practical test within two years of having passed the theory test, you will have to pass the theory test again before you can apply for a practical test.
When you have passed the practical test, if you have a photocard provisional licence and your personal details have not changed, you can hand it over to the examiner, and a full licence will be issued to you automatically. Otherwise, you must apply to the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) for your full licence within two years of the test date. If you don't do this, you will have to take the practical test (and the theory test) again.
Applying for a test
You can apply for the theory or practical test:-
- in writing, by completing an application form which is available from test centres, driving instructors or the test booking line. The number of the booking line is 0300 200 1122 in England, Wales or Scotland, or 0300 200 1133 to apply in Welsh
- by phone on 0300 200 1122 in England, Wales or Scotland, or 0300 200 1133 to apply in Welsh and in Northern Ireland, by phone on 0300 200 1166 using a credit or debit card
- online at www.gov.uk or, in Northern Ireland, www.nidirect.gov.uk.
You have to pay a fee for the test - see under heading Fees.
You can reschedule or cancel a test over the phone or online by giving three clear working days notice.
Special needs and foreign language assistance
If you have special needs, for example, reading difficulties, physical disabilities or you wish to take the tests in a language other than English, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) or the Driver Vehicle Testing Agency (DVTA) can make arrangements for you.
From 7 April 2014, new rules mean that:
- you won't be able to take a theory test with a foreign language voice over or translator. You'll have to take the test in English, Welsh or BSL
- you won't be able to take a foreign language interpreter with you on your practical driving test. You'll have to take the test in English, Welsh or BSL.
More information about candidates with special needs and taking the theory and practical tests is available on the GOV.UK website at www.gov.ukand and in Northern Ireland from www.nidirect.gov.uk.
Re-taking the test
If you fail the theory test, you must wait three clear working days before you can take a further test. There is no limit on the number of times you can take the test.
If you fail the practical test, you must wait ten clear working days before retaking a car or motorcycle test and three working days before retaking a lorry or bus test. There is no limit on the number of times you can take the test.
If you fail the theory test, you can only appeal if the test was disrupted.
If you fail the practical test, you can only appeal if the test was not carried out in accordance with the regulations.
Probationary period
When you pass your driving test for the first time you will be subject to a two year probationary period. The two year period begins on the day you first pass the practical test.
If during the probationary period, you are convicted of driving offences and reach six or more penalty points, including any penalty points you had before passing the test, your driving licence will be revoked.
If your full driving licence is revoked, you will revert to learner status and be treated as if you never passed a driving test. To continue driving, you will have to get a provisional driving licence and drive with learner's plates until you have passed both the theory and practical parts of the driving test.
You cannot appeal the revocation of your licence. However, if you appeal against the conviction or sentence which brought the number of penalty points up to 6 or more, you can apply to have your licence restored pending the result of the appeal. If the court notifies the DVLA (DVA in Northern Ireland) that the sentence is under appeal and that permission to continue driving has been granted, the full licence should be restored without a further test.
There is no minimum period for which the licence must be revoked. As soon as you have passed both the theory and practical parts of another driving test, you can apply for a new full licence. However, the penalty points will remain on the driver's licence for four years from the date of your offence. After four years you can ask the DVLA (or DVLNI in Northern Ireland) to have them removed from your licence.
For more information about endorsements on your driving licence, see Driving licences.
For some driving offences a court can disqualify you and/or order that you be re-tested. If the offence is very serious the court can order that you are 'disqualified until test passed' and that you must take a double-practical driving test known as an 'extended driving test'. The fee to be paid for this test is higher than that for a normal test (see under heading Fees).
A motorcyclist who is disqualified by a court will have to retake compulsory basic training (see under heading The practical test) in order to ride as a learner and will have to take the practical test.
For more information about disqualification and endorsements, see Driving licences.
Pass Plus
Pass Plus is a voluntary training scheme for newly-qualified drivers in England, Wales and Scotland. It involves six lessons which cover, among other subjects, night driving, all-weather driving, and driving on motorways and dual carriageways. You have to pay a fee for attending but there is no test at the end of the course.
If you complete a Pass Plus course within twelve months of passing your test, you may be able to get a discount on your insurance. The discount is normally the equivalent of a one year no-claims bonus. Check with your insurer before taking the course to see whether or not this is available. You may also want to check with an insurance broker to see whether other insurers give a larger discount.
Further information about Pass Plus can be found at www.gov.uk.
A candidate will have to pay a fee for both the theory test and the practical test. Further information about the fees payable can be found at www.gov.uk or in Northern Ireland at www.nidirect.gov.uk.
If you want to complain about the way in which any part of your theory or practical test was administered, contact the test centre where you took the test. If you aren't satisfied with their response to your complaint, you should contact the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency's customer services department on 0300 200 1122 or email them at firstname.lastname@example.com. In Northern Ireland, you should contact the Driver and Vehicle Testing Agency on 028 9068 1831 or email the Agency at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Further information about driving tests is available at www.gov.uk or in Northern Ireland at www.nidirect.gov.uk.

There's one song I've wanted played at my wedding for several years. It totally fits with "knowing" God had someone for me, and it was just a matter of locating him. Funny, I searched the USA and he found me from 5 minutes away (working at my son's middle school).
"A Thousand Years" – Christina Perri
This version is performed by Boyce Avenue. Love the male voice version of the song. I hope to have my nephew Jon sing it for us.
And here are a few more I'm collecting for the reception soundtrack.
First, the one we both can relate to…
"God Bless the Broken Road" – Rascal Flatts
Now for Chris' pick …
You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine – Lou Rawls
And some more I love…
"Thinking Out Loud" – Ed Sheeran
"How Long Will I Love You" – Ellie Goulding
"All Of Me" – John Legend & Lindsey Stirling
"Never Gonna Be Alone" – Nickelback
"Marry Me" – Train
"When God Made You" – NewSong
Love the lyrics on this one. "I wonder what God was thinking when He created you. I wonder if He knew everything I would need because He made all my dreams come true. When God made you He must have been thinking about me."
"This Kind of Love" – Josh Turner
I like this song because the kind of love I have with Chris is completely different than the kind I've felt before. I can also relate to having been burned by fleeting love until you're not sure you can trust somebody with your heart again. Here's a snippet of the lyrics:
Sometimes its hard
To let down your guard
And trust somebody with your heart
I know how
It feels when they walk out
And leave it in pieces on the ground
Oh I've known that kind of love
You feel it for awhile and then its gone
But girl tonight
Holding you
I realize that I've never known
This kind of love
It's deeper and stronger
And lasts a whole lot longer
It's more than a word that people say
And my Mama's pick. A wonderful oldie!
"Night and Day" – The Temptations
You can find all these songs and others on my Wedding Songs Playlist here.

Researchers determine whether the value of sample mean is extreme or not by calculating the p-value. If the p-value is small, then sample mean is extreme. Also, values of the sample mean and test statistic which are closer to the centre of the normal distribution have large p-values. Hence if the p-value is small, it means that the value of sample mean and test statistic lies at the extremes of the distribution. Literally speaking the p-value represents the area to the right of test statistics. For example if
Is the test statistics, where Z denotes the standard normal variable then p-value is defined as
So p-value represents the area to the right of point. Thus if p-value is small, it representslies on the tail areas and hence insignificant.

Okay, so disclaimer: I'm an absolute mysql noob. Gimme any other development type area and I'm fine.
So, I just started using Ubuntu 12.04 an setup mysql. Never really used localhost since we have a staging environment at work that I usually access. However, a client had a really large DB dump that I needed to access and I didn't want to put in on the server for everyone to deal with so I tried to use localhost
Whenever I try to access it through MySQL Workbench I get an error so I had a look at a couple of articles online and tried a couple of different things but if I run the following command in the terminal, I get an error:
mysql -u root -p -h 127.0.0.1
Produces the following
ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1' (111)
However, if I access mysql like so:
mysql -u root -p
and then enter my password, I can access mysql fine.

The GNOME 2 Desktop Environment
The GNOME Foundation (gnome.org) released GNOME version 2.0 last summer and version 2.2 in January 2003. These releases mark a move toward a standardized desktop and a commitment to scheduled releases. GNOME has become an excellent choice for first-time and nontechnical users. "With the exception of some specialized applications, one can be fully productive in business with the GNOME desktop. That's something that has only occurred with free software in the last 12 to 18 months", says Tim Ney, GNOME Foundation executive director. With the improvements made in GNOME 2, Linux's chances of increasing its market share rose significantly.
The transition for GNOME 1.x users to GNOME 2 will involve a few minor annoyances that can be expected when upgrading a desktop. Going from one learning curve to another is common in Linux; however, in upgrading my personal computer to GNOME 2, I was surprised to realize GNOME 1.4 had given me a certain level of comfort I did not want disturbed.
The people at the GNOME Foundation told me they were looking to streamline the desktop and cut down on the multitude of choices—to make workstations simpler and reduce the learning curves for new users. As a result, many minor applications, especially redundant ones, have either been eliminated or moved to a submenu labeled Extras. GNOME 2 also provides a more consistent look and feel from one program to another, thanks to an improvement in themes and fonts. "We're trying to strike more of a balance—setting standards while at the same time keeping the flexibility of Linux", says Havoc Pennington, GNOME developer and Foundation board member.
Despite how content some of us may be with Linux in the rough, nontechnical users don't always appreciate the struggle. To compete for larger markets, GNOME has simplified the desktop. Pennington says, "It's not about removing choices but giving you a default choice to get you started quickly and easily." So, instead of offering the user five different browsers and three different word processors, there's one of each. If you don't like the ones picked out for you—which were designed with the new GNOME 2 libraries—you can always find the RPM on the Web and load it.
Thanks to a usability study conducted by Seth Nickell of the GNOME Project, the program menus have been nicely reorganized. GNOME no longer buries utilities under several layers of submenus or within other programs. It also does not require the user to make command-line changes or to edit configuration scripts directly. Instead, GNOME 2 provides graphical interfaces for just about all system settings in easy-to-find places under main menus.
GNOME comes with many applications and utilities. Because I cannot cover all of them, I review a few key components from each section to help those new to GNOME get started. Some components are new to GNOME 2, and others have been included in GNOME for some time.
As is common with some desktop environments, GNOME provides users with panels for launching and managing programs, as well as for monitoring their systems. Panels can be placed at the top, bottom, left and right margins of the desktop. More than one panel per margin can be set up, and panels can be floating so that they can be placed anywhere on the desktop. They can be configured to remain open, to hide automatically, or they can resize themselves as needed depending on the number of running applications. A panel also can be set up with a button for extending and retracting the panel.
Initially, one panel is set up along the top margin with a menu for launching programs. Another panel is placed along the bottom margin with icons for launching each major component of OpenOffice, which is now the default office suite for GNOME 2. It also has links to the web browser, Mozilla, and the default e-mail client, Ximian's Evolution. All things considered, these are good choices for the average Linux user and especially for nontechnical users. If you don't like these choices, however, you easily can remove or add program launchers to the panels. Simply right-click on an icon and choose Remove from the panel to remove it. To add an item, right-click on an open section of the panel, select the Add to panel menu, and pick the application you want to add from one of the submenus.

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment
On Demand
One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide


text: I've been entirely too profligate in changing permalinks in the past, and now I'm trying to clean up my act, but I have an unexpected problem--I've broken all my external links and my ability to HAVE external links to some files. I changed my permalink structure from year/month/postname to /postname/ then installed the redirection plugin and then saw thousands of attempted redirections that were yielding 404's. I read in the Yoast blog that redirection would automatically fix that but assumed I had the order of execution wrong, so I turned off the plugin, switched back to /year/month/postname/ then turned the plugin on and switched to /postname/. Worked, sort of, but all my external links--mostly pictures like wpcontent/uploads/2011/11/sam.png were broken--and are being treated like permalinked posts. I can see why that might be, but I can't fix it. Pushing the panic button on the plugin (delete all redirection and deactivate the plugin) did NOT solve the problem. I could use some help with this. I'm also using bulletproof security with fiddles with the .htaccess files a lot. I'm no expert on .htaccess and regular expressiions look like Klingon to me.

Though approaching his 90th year, the greatest American ex-president, Jimmy Carter, shows no sign of slowing down. Recently, he has visited Sweden, where my wife Birgit and I reside for several months each year, bringing a message of peace and responsible behavior for the nation of Iran, which has had no regular diplomatic relations with the United States for decades. Carter also expressed grave concern over the emergence of a new radical group seeking to overthrow or dominate the governments of Iraq and Syria, linking them into one repressive regime.
I first met Jimmy Carter while heading up the Jewish Community Council of Greater New London during the 1970s. Upon securing the presidential nomination of the Democratic Party in 1976, he held a meeting for such agency heads in Boston, which I attended. Being very impressed with Carter and his message of hope for America and the world, I volunteered in his successful presidential campaign, and was invited to his Inauguration in Washington in January 1977.
In his inaugural speech, Jimmy Carter adopted the theme that government should be competent and compassionate, and he succeeded in helping to create 8 million new jobs, reducing the federal budget deficit, establishing a national energy policy and, in foreign affairs, bringing together the leaders of Israel and Egypt to sign the 1978 Camp David Accords, the first (and only) real Mideast peace agreement.
Even though he was defeated by Republican Ronald Reagan in 1980 (largely due to over 50 American diplomats and other staff having been taken hostage by Iranian radicals and not released until after the election), Carter did not withdraw from public life. In recent decades, he has helped supervise elections all over the developing world, has advised most of his successors in the American presidency, and has spoken out forcefully for peace and reconciliation.
In 2002, Jimmy Carter was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. He has founded the Carter Center, based in Atlanta, Georgia to help achieve improved living conditions for the needy, not only in a host of nations around the world, but in the United States itself.
Over the years, Jimmy Carter and I have stayed in touch; during my service as an agency head and college professor in eastern Connecticut, I formally proposed to the U.S. Naval Submarine Base in Groton - where I was teaching business and economics courses - that a new Trident submarine be named in honor of this former naval officer and graduate of the Naval Academy in Annapolis. I was told that my proposal had been referred to the Secretary of the Navy.
Jimmy Carter served with distinction in the U.S. Navy during World War II, trained as an engineer. Later, he specialized in nuclear power, so the naming of a nuclear submarine after him is fitting. It took decades, but on Feb. 19, 2005 the third and last Seawolf nuclear submarine, the USS Jimmy Carter (SSN-23), was commissioned, with the motto Semper Optima - Always the Best.
The same might well be said about Jimmy Carter himself.

The Rednecks Bite Back, a farce by R. Eugene Jackson and directed by Diana Child will be presented by the Suwannee Valley Players on May 6-8 and 13-15.

Homeowners in four unincorporated areas of the county who live within 5 road miles – not as the crow flies – can rejoice: Your fire insurance could get lowered as of Aug. 1.

The Levy County School Board has hired a new principal for Chiefland Elementary School.
The Chiefland Rotary Club's Annual Fishing Tournament in Cedar Key turns 12 this year and it is growing up. This year the weigh-in will move from Capital City Bank's parking lot to Cedar Key City Park and there will be music, food, beverages and fun for everyone from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.
Six Cane Corso/Mastiff dogs ― owned by the same family who lost three dogs after a violent attack on a baby and a young couple ― have been seized by the county after the dogs were reported running loose and attacking a Levy County Sheriff's deputy's vehicle.
A source with knowledge of the case said the owners ― Laura Traughber and Mark Teears ― have a hearing date in Levy County Court. The three animals in the earlier attack were euthanized by the county after a hearing before Levy County Judge James 'Tim" Browning.
The rain came pouring down as folks set up for the Fanning Springs Movie Night last Friday evening, but determined the show would go on, they stuck it out. Just before the sun set, the sky cleared and a rainbow appeared back toward town.
"I think it went great," Fanning Springs Chamber of Commerce President Michael Michaelis said of the event. "Despite the threatening weather ... It was a beautiful evening and everyone enjoyed themselves."
The weather may have scared some off, but it was still very well attended, he said.
A wild and challenging race, which has grown in popularity over the years, presented an interesting challenge to racers this year.
The Wild Hog Canoe and Kayak Race is known for the twisting turns of the little Waccasassa River, rapids, logs and wild critters. This year however, for its 39th annual year, the race set a new record of 131 boats entering the race, beating the long standing record of 124 being the most boats entered.
The County Commission meets in regular session at 9 a.m. Tuesday, May 3, 2016.
The meeting is in the commission meeting room at the Levy County Courthouse on South Court Street in Bronson.
Levy County schools were notified Wednesday morning by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and U.S. Foods of food recalls resulting in the disposal of about 60 cases or 1200 pounds of chicken products from Pilgrim's Pride Corp.
A previous recall on April 7 listed only one product, but a secondary press release on April 26 revealed multiple other products had been affected. Over 4.5 million pounds of chicken products are being recalled.

Three days after David Towers resigned as the principal at Waukesha West High School due to "personal reasons" a replacement was found.
Superintendent Todd Gray said Tuesday morning that David LaBorde, who last served as a principal at New Berlin West Middle and High School, has been hired as the interim principal at Waukesha West for the remainder of the year.
His first day was Tuesday.
Towers stunned the West community when he resigned last week from his position just a year and a half into his tenure.
In a letter to Waukesha West High School parents on Friday, Gray said Towers resigned for "personal reasons."
Gray said no other information on Towers' resignation will be released at this time.
Towers, 37, was hired before the 2011-12 school year after serving as an assistant and associate principal at Germantown High School for five years.
"(West) was the perfect fit," said Towers in an interview a week after being hired in August 2011.
He replaced Melissa Thompson, who left West to become superintendent for the Swallow School District in Merton.
Gray said Sara Behrendt, the district's director of curriculum for secondary education, will work closely with West administrative staff during the transition period.
With a background in teaching and athletics early in his career, Towers looked to enhance West's strong academic and athletic reputation.
While his stay at West was short, Towers did make some large changes to the school by implementing random breath tests at school dances last year due to what he described as poor decisions made by some students at the homecoming dance.
And at the start of this school year, he banned backpacks and purses for students between classes. It brought some initial backlash but Towers said it was for safety concerns.
The Waukesha School Board was scheduled to take up Towers' resignation at its School Board meeting Wednesday night. That meeting took place after this paper went to press.
"Mr. Towers offers his thanks and appreciation to the West High parents and community for your support over the last year and a half," Gray said.
The school also replaced Assistant Principal Todd Hencsik at the end of 2011-12 school year. He left West after four years to become a principal at a northern Illinois high school.
Towers could not be reached for comment. Online court records indicate that he and his wife, Tara, of Brookfield, filed for divorce Jan. 2.

Requiring all couples to be treated with equal dignity is actually not at all like ancient Roman torture of Christians.

Way to choke, Ty.
I really dislike JJ too. He can't guard anyone at his position. JJ reminds me of Andre Miller last year. He'll get you buckets but will give one up on the other end.
Why not go up for the wide open lay up ty?
Way to stick it to the team that traded you Foye lol
We have about two minutes to make a big run. If not, it's over.
I'm quickly losing faith in Nate. His game is identical to JR Smiths. When he's on he's on, but sadly to say it never lasts. You have to now when you're cold, and Nate will continue to jack up...
Wow, I take it back. Nate is straight *** tonight.
Nate is looking slightly better in the 4th...can't say the same about the other two.
That was the dumbest 3 pointer I've ever seen
Foye, Mozzy, and Nate have looked like pure, potent ****.
Nate looks terrible
These free throws are really pissing me off.
It's easy to play when you're hitting shots. The Nuggs look like they're going through the motions and not fighting.
Dumb *** nate
And that made me frown :(
Well that made me smile :)
We're about to lose to the Utah Jazz (worst team in the NBA) for the second straight time. I should have known that the five game win streak was fools gold.
I guess what's pissing me of is Utah is destroying the Nuggs at every position.
I forget about Hayward. He torches the Nuggs every time, it never fails.
We're getting outplayed in every facet of the game. This is beyond disgraceful.
I seriously hate how inconsistent the Nuggets are. The only consistent stat is Ty's assists, besides that, you can't count on anyone on a nightly basis :(
No defense. We damn near gave up 70 points to the worst team in the league smh.
He looked damn good too. Brought a lot of energy and made a few buckets.
Mozzy, you're a straight bum tonight.
Nate has been playing horrible the last few games. His confidence is gone...

Rated 4 / 5 stars
a nice melodic track. the first 30 seconds seems to have a nice build up but you could try adding bass in the track to give it more of a drop. also im from newcastle in england keep producing!
thanks alot! :) And wow haha I'm from newcastle to! :)
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
This is great!
I loved it. It's well put together, but not too long as to make it something annoying on my ipod. downloaded.
thanks so much! :)
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Great! :D
Just the right length, great harmony and melody. My only issue is it does not loop as well as it could. The sudden change in synth, melody and volume as it loops is quite jarring.
Yeahh it's a song not a loop :P Thanks for the review :)
