Win loads fine but none applications will load up.
I have a weird situation: Just a normal day working on my pc while it messages me, system rebooting. It reboots without any errors. I log back into my system, everything seems fine. I notticed on my taskbar none of my applications loaded. Usually, MSN, my vid card, winamp...icons are loaded up and icons are in taskbar but not there!
I performed many actions to no avail.
System restore, safemode boot, selective services boot, sfc /scannow and so on.
I checked in Event viewer and see 5-6 service that did not responde to the start or control in a timely fashion.
Ex: acrobat, asus, bonjour, apple....
Got one I dint like:
The server {06622D85-6856-4460-8DE1-A81921B41C4B} did not register with DCOM within the required timeout.
When i click on any applications mostly non-MS apps nothing happens. Not even the services starts up in task man. I tried to open the service lets say, Steam client and get the Timeout error right away.
Hope someone got ideas! Thank you guys :O)

Thx guys. I played around a bit on my system and noticed that ALL my 32bit applications will not run anymore. Im running win7 x64 ultimate. The service appears in taskman then goes away when i launch a 32bit app.
This is strange because everything was fine until I get that reboot.
I was asked to run some AV scan and so on..but unless they are 64bit. I cant run them! It seem something is saying my box is now ONLY x64 and cannot undertake 32bit applications. WEIRD!!
what in the hell could of cause that? BIOS level?
any ideas??

Christopher Nolan tips Anne Hathaway for Catwoman spin-off
The Devil Wears Prada star is the latest actress to play the Caped Crusader's feline nemesis, following in the footsteps of Julie Newmar, Eartha Kitt and Michelle Pfeiffer – and Nolan was bowled over by her scenes.
He tells Access Hollywood, "Anne is incredibly precise and articulate about the psychology of the character. She's really built it from the ground up, it's just a delight to watch her perform. The things she does in those heels is not to be taken lightly.
"She's an incredible character and we're very excited to see her and hopefully we'll leave people wanting more."
Nolan will step away from the franchise after the blockbuster's upcoming release, but he is adamant Hathaway should star in a Catwoman spin-off, adding, "I certainly think she deserves it, she's incredible."

Today, I celebrate my 1 year anniversary with a fabulous man, Cory. To celebrate, I am sharing my favorite wedding photos with you!
Today you're going to see after-wedding and reception photos! The church we were married in is in Sharpsburg, Maryland, where I was raised and my mother still lives. One of the details that makes Sharpsburg such a small-town gem is that a majority of the Antietam National Battlefield is within the city limits. Cory and I really wanted to have some of our wedding photos taken on the battlefield as it is such a historic and beautiful place.
You'll also see that we gave each guest a mini composition books (get it? We're both teachers!) with my favorite E.E. Cummings poem and a sweet note from us printed on a card placed on top. The cover of the composition book read "7.10.10".
Enjoy :)

Unanswered: MySQL and Access2k Action Queries
I am trying to port an application from an Access2k front/back end, to an Access2k front end / MySQL back end.
For speed, I am using pass through queries to populate forms. Then I am using SQL INSERT or UPDATE statements to add or edit data. These statements are written against the ODBC linked table in the Access native mode of DAO.Recordsets or DAO.QueryDefs, only because I have not been able to find a way to pass these statements directly to MySQL.
How can I do this, and also take advantage of MySQL's other built in features from within my app?

Almost nine out of 10 European city dwellers breathe air that is harmful to their health, the European Environment Agency says.
Air pollution is linked to around 467,000 early deaths a year in Europe, the European Environment Agency (EEA) said on Wednesday.
Almost nine out of 10 European city dwellers breathe air that is harmful to their health, though the continent's air quality is slowly improving, the agency said in its annual report.
"Emission reductions have led to improvements in air quality in Europe, but not enough to avoid unacceptable damage to human health and the environment," EEA executive director Hans Bruyninckx said in a statement.
Data from monitoring stations across Europe showed that in 2014 around 85 percent of the urban population was exposed to fine particulate matter (PM), microscopic specks of dust and soot caused mainly by burning fossil fuels, at levels deemed harmful to health by the World Health Organization (WHO).
In 2014, ~85% of the EU urbanites were exposed to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) at levels deemed harmful by @WHO. https://t.co/vK2A8oTLH8 pic.twitter.com/kPheadp7O9— EU EnvironmentAgency (@EUEnvironment) November 23, 2016
PM10, particulate matter measuring less than 10 microns, or 10 millionths of a metre, can lodge in the airways, causing respiratory problems.
More perilous still are smaller PM2.5 particles which can enter the lungs and even the bloodstream.
The report said that in 2014, 16 percent of city dwellers in the EU were exposed to PM10 levels above the EU target, while eight percent were exposed to PM2.5 levels exceeding the threshold.
Emissions of nitrogen oxides, which are linked to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, from road transport had not fallen "sufficiently," the EEA said.
Similarly, emissions of PM2.5 and a particular hydrocarbon from coal and biomass combustion were "sustained", it noted.
European parliament passes new law
The European Parliament passed a new draft law on air pollution on Wednesday but the European Commission and several members of parliament (MEPs) said the move was not enough to cut emissions to WHO standards.
#AirQuality: MEPs vote on stricter emission limits to reduce number of deaths due to #airpollution. Watch the video pic.twitter.com/geZCUIs0rb— European Parliament (@Europarl_EN) November 23, 2016
The law, which has taken almost three years to get through parliament, aims to halve the number of premature deaths caused by air pollution, and targets the many EU states already in breach of existing air pollution limits.
"Air pollution is the number one environmental cause of death in the EU," conservative MEP Julie Girling, who shepherded the bill through parliament, told the plenary session in Strasbourg.
Following a political agreement reached with EU nations in June, the plenary session adopted the limits on air toxins estimated to reduce health hazards by 49.6 percent, compared with the Commission's target in its 2013 proposal of 52 percent.
The bill, which still needs the endorsement of member states in the Council, sets national limits until 2030 on major pollutants, including dust and sulphur dioxide.

It's been a long time since the last update. That's partially down to the graphical upgrade taking longer than we thought, so we're moving the new graphics into a later update. That way you won't have to wait for other new features, bug fixes and polish.
More information follows.
Since the last post, we've continued adding lots of polish to the game. Samuri has continued his art rework, and we now have almost all the tiles we need, and a lot of the items.
I'm currently in the process of tightening up the combat: fixing weird hitboxes, making sure enemies telegraph their attacks, improving animations, etc.
A common piece of feedback I've had is about the "dead" lower-left corner of the player - it's not actually possible to hit enemies in that corner with the sword as it currently is. So I've extended the arc of the sword a few more degrees:
It's time for a quick round-up of the latest in-development changes in Lenna's Inception!
Jay's been hard at work on the new art style. So far, the overworld biomes are mostly complete, including (most recently) the graveyard biome and the Autumnal forest:
Here's an update on what I've been doing and what's coming up for Lenna's Inception!
It's been a tense month trying to figure out my response to the new EU VAT rules, but in the end Leaf, operator of itch.io came to the rescue! itch.io now offers the option of handling VAT for indie developers, which is really awesome! :)
And finally, finally, I can release beta7 to you today, which includes these lovely new features:
You can buy Lenna's Inception on itch.io:
It's also available via Humble:
I might be forced to halt purchases of Lenna's Inception through itch.io in January due to new EU laws. The details of why (in my rant below) are quite tedious, but please be assured that:
As I write this, you can still get it on itch.io. If you want it soon, buy it before the 31st December:
The owner/operator of itch.io has said that he is working on EU VAT compliance, so it's possible that nothing might change for Lenna's Inception come January. Although it is still quite hard for me to imagine what he would be able to do.
If you're reading this in January, while the game is unavailable, and you really can't wait for it:
Lenna's Inception version 0.6 (beta6) is live. Get it from the usual place. (There was no beta5, I'm just doing a Windows 9.)
As per usual, in order to access most of the new features you'll need to visit the starving artists' house in the town and speak to the NPC inside to regenerate your maps. This won't cause you to lose any progress.
By the way: I'm going to be giving at talk about procedural generation at the start of #procjam on the 8th of November. Tickets have already sold out for attending in person, but the talks will be streamed online! Check the website and @procjam to keep up to date on the details for that.
"670" height="152"/>
I strongly encourage you to take part in the jam as well if you're curious. I'm really looking forward to it!
Lenna's Inception version 0.5 (beta4) is live. Get it from the usual place.
As per usual, in order to access most of the new features you'll need to visit the starving artists' house in the town and speak to the NPC inside to regenerate your maps. This won't cause you to lose any progress.
In the previous post in this series we saw how terrain is generated and how the procgen system decides each area in the world will be connected, which controls the progression of the player through the game. In this post I explain how the contents of those distinct areas are filled. As mentioned earlier, while Binding of Isaac and Spelunky use hand-designed templates to generate this content, Lenna's Inception takes a different approach.
This part of the procgen system is aware of the spatial relationships between objects. By formalizing (making strict machine-readable rules) the constraints each kind of tile places on its neighbors, the system can choose where to place randomized objects without breaking the game. As an example rule, a cracked rock requires floor next to it so that a bomb can be placed there. If it was placed next to some water, the bomb would sink and not blow up the rock. The system understands this could prevent the player from progressing and will not by default put water next to cracked rocks.
UPDATE 2014-09-15: The second part of this series is here.
I regularly get asked how the overworld is generated. I actually started writing it up in a series of blog posts here on bytten-studio.com last year, but it became difficult to keep this up to date with the implementation. The implementation was changing too much and too often!
Things have stabilized somewhat now, so in this two-post series I'll give an overview of how the procedural generation in Lenna's Inception works. I'll skip over some of the details to keep the length down, but if you need more detail on something specific for your own project(s), I'm more than happy to help you. Feel free to contact me on twitter or by email, but please try to understand that my time is very limited!
Procedural map generation in contemporary video games tends to fall into two categories:
Lenna's Inception doesn't really fit neatly into either of those, because while it's linear, it doesn't rely heavily on hand-designed room templates. It takes the linear gameplay of the first category and and increases the degree of freedom of the procgen system to a level comparable to the second category.
Let's start by taking a look at the design of some of the most closely-related games that use procedural generation and randomization.

View Additional Limited Time Offers here!
Update 02/20/14: The Minimum spend requirement to get the 40,000 point bonus, has now gone up to $3,000 spend within the first 90 days. The 20,000 bonus point offer on the no annual fee version of the BarclayCard Arrival, still only requires $1,000 spend within 90 days.
Update 02/17/14: This awesome offer is still available! Though, according to our contacts at Barclaycard, The minimum spend required, will soon increase to $3,000 spend within 90 days. There is no better time to get in on this easy $400 + $40 offer, than now!!
The Barclaycard Arrival World Mastercard is one of the best cash back credit cards out there. It offers a nice 2 percent cash-back (in the form of points) on ALL purchases, plus an additional 10% back upon redeeming your points, so effectively you are getting a nice 2.2% back on all purchases.
Plus, it also offers 40,000 bonus points for spending $1,000 within the first 90 days. Upon redeeming those 40,000 bonus points you will get the 10% bonus which will be 4,000 points which in essence means that you are really getting 44,000 bonus points or in dollar terms, $440 free. This is being advertised as a limited time offer, the end date is unknown.
The way to redeem the points at full value though is to redeem them for "Travel Expenses". That means any time you charge travel to your card you will have the option of paying for the travel with your points at 1 cent value per point (+ you'll get the 10% back).
The travel can be booked via any booking site or straight from the agency etc;. Airlines, Travel Agencies & Tour Operators, Hotels, Motels & Resorts, Cruise Lines, Passenger Railways and Car Rental Agencies are all considered travel expenses. Once the charge shows up on your account you can the simply go online to your Barclays account (see below) and request that the purchase be refunded using your points.
For example if you spend $420 dollars on a plane ticket and have 42,000 points from the bonus from opening the card and spending the $1,000, you'll be able to get a $420 cash refund. Plus, you'll also get 4,200 points redeposited to your account worth $42.
This card also doesn't charge any foreign transaction fees. The annual fee is waived for the first year. After the first year is up, if you do not want to pay the $89 annual fee, simply call up Barclays and downgrade to the no annual fee version of the BarclayCard Arrival World Mastercard. The main differences between the Annual fee version and the no annual fee version is that the no annual fee version only gives a 20,000 point signup bonus and you only get 2 points on travel and dining purchases. The no annual fee version also gives a 10% point refund with every redemption and has no foreign transaction fees.
Also a nice perk about Barclays, is that they generally only pull from Transunion no matter your location, as opposed to Chase, Amex or Citi. That mean's that Chase, Amex or Citi will not see the credit pull from Barclays or vice versa. Though, Barclays will see all of your recently opened cards if they are over 30 days old.

The taproom is opening on Thursday Oct 2nd around 5pm! This is a pretty exciting moment, I must say. We've had an army of volunteers helping out these past few weeks, and we are ready for you.
This week was a banner one - we got our final inspection from the City, and the Fire Marshall will be through shortly to give the final blessing. We're still waiting on the TTB (the Federal Trade Taxation Bureau), which has been in a, "We'll approve you tomorrow!" mode for a week or more. If I need to get a special permit from the City and OLCC for opening this week (which I can do), I shall. It is time!
For me, this has been quite an adventure on a number of levels. Transitioning from 25 years behind a desk has been remarkably easy. I've found myself learning all kinds of new things, and working in ways I never thought. Like spending 2 days climbing up and down a 20 foot ladder to install skylights. I hadn't expected that. I really needed to work my yoga focus to not freak the hell out and fall of the ladder or the roof. I can scurry up and down with the best of them, now. Not a resume building skill, and... for the first time in my life, I don't care about that!
These past few weeks have been a blur - so much has been happening. Some highlights include lots of sanding and varnishing old furniture. Like some church pews that now get to enjoy a new life at Hi-Wheel.
You'll get to meet Krista, our bar manager. She comes with 13 years experience behind the bar, and is charge of the entire taproom. She'll be curating fine beers, ciders and meads for both the tap and our new reach-in cooler. You'll be able to get some interesting beverages not on our 10 tap draft system, and some to take home, too.
Once we settle into the space, I'll be getting the bottling line up and running. The four main Hi-Wheel fizzy wine flavors shall be bottled in 500 ml sizes for take-away and at locations around Portland.
And here we are, a day or so away from opening a taproom and production winery in Portland, Oregon. My vision that came into focus last summer in the middle of a wild storm of life, and it's been made my many, many hands.
Ready for you to enjoy.
Now, we're planning on opening Thursday to Sunday for the month. And don't forget the Grand Opening party on Saturday Oct 11th!

Pietermaritzburg - A young man who was brave enough to help a 15-year-old girl who was being raped by two men has paid with his life.As Sanele Dladla, 23, was walking with the victim to the police station the morning after rescuing her, one of the rapists confronted them in the street and stabbed Dladla to death.The rape took place in a dilapidated back room at Dladla's home in Mbali Unit 1.Dladla was returning home with a friend at about 03:00 on Saturday when he heard screams.His eldest sister, Zamampendle, said the two friends went to investigate and found two men they knew raping the girl.Commotion"I heard some commotion and on investigating I discovered that the two were confronting the suspects for raping the girl and Sanele said he would report the matter."I went back into the house and I heard the woman who stays in the main house scolding the suspects for committing the crime in her yard," said Zamampendle.She said they kept the teenage victim in their home until sunrise, with Sanele saying he would accompany her to the police.The girl said she was grabbed by the suspects on her way to buy pre-paid electricity from a local shop."When we questioned the girl she said the two started raping her on Friday afternoon in a nearby bush after taking the cash she had and the electricity pre-paid card. She said that in the late afternoon they dragged her into that back room at the neighbours."When we questioned the neighbour it appeared that the screams of the girl could not have been heard as there was a party in the neighbourhood," she said.StabbedAt about 06:00 Sanele accompanied the girl to the police. On their way they were intercepted by the suspects and one of them stabbed him in the chest. He was taken to Mbali Clinic where he died."I was cleaning the house when Sanele's friend came and told me that he was stabbed," said Zamampendle."The girl escaped and went to the police station while this was happening. It is sad that my brother could die this way. He was no trouble maker and even now he died trying to help the poor girl."On Saturday afternoon local people went looking for the suspects. They found one and beat him up before calling the ward councillor and the police.The one who allegedly stabbed Sanele was still at large until his parents tracked him down and handed him to the police.The Witness could not find the rape victim or her family.Ward councillor Siphiwo Ndawonde said, "Rape is not common in this community."It is so sad for a young life to be lost while trying to do the right thing, to rescue a vulnerable young girl."He said he will call a meeting to discuss the events.16 Days of Activism campaignThe young girl was raped the day after the launch of the 16 Days of Activism for No Violence against Women and Children.Last Friday the Minister of Women, Children and People with Disabilities, Lulu Xingwana, said that there has been an increase in all sexual offences, including rape and indecent assault, since last year.She said she believes people who rape and murder women and children should not be have option of bail, but should be given tougher sentences to deter others.Police said the two suspects, who are in their 20s, will appear in court soon.One is charged with rape and the other with rape and murder
Uncivilised trash
Well done to the community! Should have castrated them all right then and there. Condolences to the boys family for your loss, he was a brave man! We need more people like that in our country.
@Monique .. I would just like to know what kind of animal would think your comment deserves a thumbs down ?? Really ?
no female in SA should walk anywhere on her own, and when reporting a rape should go in a group of more than four people. And what a loss to SA, this young man.
There is a proverb that says: "Whoever destroys a soul, it is considered as if he destroyed an entire world. And whoever saves a life, it is considered as if he saved an entire world."
@jordaanjean: Why do you think? It's obviously due to the illegality of 'giving absolute power to the community' or 'guilty before proven' or 'two wrongs make a right' or suggesting punishment that is clearly unconstitutional. Try imagining the anarchy if such were the case and how many innocent lives would be lost to say the very least.
@ bmcb, it's obvious you have no idea how disgusting a rape is, and if your wife, daughter, sister or mother gets raped so viciously and the guy who saves her gets killed for it, don't make comments such as this. Women live in fear every damn day of being raped, and the pigs get away with it, well, for once, the bastard got a good thrashing, he deserved nothing less!
@Riëtte: I didn't say anything about this story or how horrendous rape truly is, but just answered jordaanjean as to why Monique may have got "thumbs down" for her comment. Allowing the community free-will isn't an option, no matter what be the crime.
Help us change this.Facebook Wacha Women's March 2012 also www.wachalife.com there 250 000 kids waiting for us to support their efforts.
What a brave young man, hope the catch the bloody rapist and bliksem him properly. RIP Sanele Dladla
@BelindaS12: I wish there was a way of readily identifying people who give your comment a "thumbs down", they could only be sex offenders themselves and as such be in jail. Bloody pigs
Really sad,hopefully once caught, they can serve life behind bars and be raped everyday in prison.
This country, I am sorry to say is f*cked!!
More likely raped and we are told our police are pro-active in combatting crime.
F)&^)% bunch of animals.....They need the needle.
Wolraad Woltemade....
I guess I would do the same if I would come onto something like that. If it was my sister in that situation, I would have been forever in your debt if you did the same for her. Too few good people left!
People are gatvol everywhere. Well done to the community for finding them, they should have stoned them.
One thing will help in the "16 Days" campaign.
Shoot the bastard in the gut. Let him die slowly and painfully.
Ward councillor Siphiwo Ndawonde said, "Rape is not common in this community
the blindness of our leaders, unfortunatly we won't win the war as long as we continue to have leaders living in denial. this is the reality in the rape capital of the world
we need people like Sanele in our society, Remember the fight against crime it begins with you!!
Trying to do the right thing sometimes just isnt worth it! The perps are not human and should of been stoned to death!!! We think humans have evolved and progressed. When you read stories like this I wonder. Condolences to the young mans family. Heros are few and far between!
This is so sad what a brave young man hope justice is served . If i were there i wound have definately gone out of my way to help Sanele, thats the people we need in SA.
Hats off to a Hero!! Rest is peace Sanele, I wish to God all men in this country could be like you and stand up to these animals.
Its sad that in this here country a young girl who has just been raped for hours has to spend the whole night without any medical attention or counseling only to see her hero killed. Took the death of a fine young man for the whole community to finally get involved, a lesson to us all that we should get involved sooner. This could have been so avoided. :(
RIP young man May u become a Beacon of Leadership for all young men and women, I am glad that the other suspect was handed in by his parents, they also need a medal and to become leaders of many parents and friends who know who has committed crimes to come forward. Well done Sanelle you have returned some hope to us South Africans. Now all we need are leaders who can lead by example.
RIP Sanele Dladla. You were brave to save someone's life sadly they took yours in any case YOU ARE A HERO.And i hope those thugs won't get away with this, justice must be served.
Bring back the death penalty! These low life animals will keep on raping and murdering when they know they will be heading for a free life free everything and the taxpayer foots the bill.
Just goes to show how inhumane these thugs are. First they rape an innocent girl for hours and then, without batting an eye, commit murder.That's just evil! RIP Sanele..you died a hero.
As bad as this story sounds it should give us at least a bit of hope. from what I can read in the story is that the community has a very low tolerance for crime. First the lady who owns the property scolded the suspects for committing the crime on her property, then the the deceased and his friend went to intervene and report the case to the police. After he was killed community members made a citizens arrest of the one suspect whilst the parents of the other suspect handed him over. This shows a clear dedication on the part of the community to rid their area of crime. The problem however is that with such a lack of resources they cannot take further steps to safeguard themselves and thus remain victims. The local councilor should really look into this as the dedication is there, all they need now is resources and organisation
Society is the problem....30 years ago a girl's scream would not have gone unheard and the consequences for the rapist would have been dire. We need to stand up and be counted again as men. I cannot publish what I will do if I catch someone raping a child/women. We need to free our gardens of the weeds.
Jail sentence might work in other countries, but not in S.A. It does not serve as a warning to others. Please think of something better or let them do hard labour while serving.
In Jail u get free clothing, water n lights, meals, entertainment, option to have free education, roof over your head, bed to sleep on, some work to keep you busy and time on hand to read if you choose. How the hell can that be a deterrent?
@ivan.coetzee2 jails in SA are no walk in the park. Remember that in prisons such as pollsmoor water, meals, entertainment etc. are only afforded to you if you have good standing with the ruling gangs since they control most of these things. as for the free education many of the prisoners are products of free education in the first place. This education has not equipped them with the necessary skills to do something positive instead of crime. In prison you can read if you choose to but you can also get sodomised whether you choose to or not. So the question is why would people continue going to prison despite this? I think the answer lies in the desperate conditions that many young men endure outside of prison. I don't care how easy or tough we make prisons; as long as SA continues to produce a bunch of frustrated, unemployed and poorly educated young men there shall be no peace for all of us in this country and the prisons shall remain full regardless of what horrors await them inside.
I am lost for words...condolences to the young man's family :(
I just hate the whole idea of this... Weekly; if its not RAPE or murder its corruption! How and when will people learn to be civillised, And when will we be getting the DEATH SENTENCE back????????
MP's Do what you"re getting paid to do not what you want to do whenever you want to!!!!
Amen and well said
Well said Wnkambule
There is one fool proof cure for rapists. Castrate them. End of problem.
Unfortunately not. Rape is about power, not lust and there are many horrendous way to rape other than with a penis.
The US treat some of these (rapist) people with Depo provera injections (women birth control). Not sure if it is helping at all.
as much as it pains me to admit it (due to the fact that castration was my first thought as well): Mary is right.
That Brave guy deserves a medal. So sad that he lost his life. As for the two culprits. They should be shot. Never mind the bail. To give them bail would be a crime in itself. They do not deserve it.
unfortunately rape on this continent will keep on happening for many years to come. uncivilised animals.
rape happens across the world. It's not exclusively african! Men are the same all over
How said and what a brave man to get himself involved to help. To his parents, we so sorry to hear of your loss. In our eyes he is a hero and we need more like him in our society.
This country needs more people like the young man in this story. Not enough people do the right thing and when they do they often pay with their lives.
and the thumb downs were for what?
so this is what you get for helping someone in distress, i suppose the corrupt anc and ancyl will now say he deserved it for not letting the criminals do there disgusting crime
It sickens me to read this.
I know what you saying Vuyo,this is the sort of thing that makes people look the other way and not help when others are in distress, i really wish that the community had found this rapist/murderer first and gave him some people's justice
Give them a "suspended" sentence. Why is it that only criminals are entitled to dish out the death penalty ?
The thumbs down must be those in AGREEMENT WITH RAPISTS....bring it on. I cannot see what is wrong with Belinda's comment for her to receive so many thumbs down. Rapists deserve slow torture as their victims never heal from the rape.
Look up, she posts the same thing under every comment. If there is anything more annoying than the sickening rapist right now, its a dam TROLL!
I saw the repeat of her posts, I am just saying in general why give a comment a thumbs down, that is relevant to the article :)
Sanele Dladla, you are a hero and a real Man in a world of weak male runts. I will remember your name and toast your bravery. Yours is a glorious death, go now to your Ancestors and take your place among the honored dead. My brothers of the sword will hear your deed, I am inspired by your sacrifice - thank you.
The one who allegedly stabbed Sanele was still at large until his parents tracked him down and handed him to the police.
At least his parents did not try to shield him. They too are brave......
Hnag 'em high!
BelindaS12 we get it already.. f*ck
Where do all these monsters come from?
Serioudly when are these fools gonna bring back the death penalty? RIP Sanele you are a brave man!
Bring back the death penalty. All good to say everybody has the right to life but what about those who lose their lives because of crime. Did they not have a right to be protected and to live. Why should one respect the right to live of those who do not have the same respect. Only way to stop or at least limit crime including corruption is to deter people through extremely harsh penalties. It is simple. Criminals weigh up the risk of being caught and the penalty associated with it to the potential benefit of committing the crime. To make it less attractive on the risk side will reduce crime.
What is it you want?....
I will never understand what possible gratification anybody could ever find from raping a person. And then to be a murderer on top of that? What kind of person do you have to be to be that depraved? Is such a person even worthy of the title "human being?". It is such a sad and scary world that we live in that so called "people" have no qualms in robbing a person of their safety and ending another's life for no reason at all and for what "Sexual Gratification". Sanele: the world needs more people like you.... people that still believe in kindness first and foremost!!!
They should be Killed!!! ,,, Hang the Mother F@##ckers
Sanele Dladla is a good samaritan , murdered by these criminal scum, stone them to death.
Die gemeenskap moes sommer maar net die mense dood gemaak het en op die ashope gaan gooi het, want nou gaan hulle elk R100 borgtog kry en niks gaan met hulle gebeur nie. Die snaakste ding is dat die gemeenskap en die ouers die skurke moes vang en polisie toe vat. Hoekom het die polisie dit nie gedoen nie?
When OH WHEN will something be done to rapists?
Rapists are getting away with it daily while their victims never recover, the only thing to be done is to rape the rapist, let them experience the humiliation and fear. But that will NEVER happen, because criminals have more rights than the law abiding citizens.
Now thats why we need to re-instate the death panelty, so bastards like this pay for their doings with their lives
Nice one Sanele. Glad to see there's still heroes left. Now it's the victim's turn to step up to the plate and not let his death be in vain...
A tragedy and even more tragic because tomorrow it won't be news any more. In most other countries this would be the stuff of a crime novel - here we live it almost every day.
Community LAW = CUT IT OFF. The justice system takes too long, and costs too much. They are guily, obviously, and deserve no mercy.
MWF that blanket comment just deserves a thumbs down. What do you mean uncivilised? Who? The man who was helping her, the girl herself, or the neighbours who beat the murderers up.
If you have no point to make please don't make it here.
One Rapist one bullet!
cant make it quick...the perpetrators must suffer,i remember reading that in Saudi Arabia a bloke was convicted of raping and then cutting his victim into small bits.....
his sentence...to die the same way !
R.I.P. Sanele Dladla and condolences to his family. We have lost another silent hero. Throw the bastards to the community and let real justice be done!

The government's Digital Britain report has indicated that Ofcom may get stronger powers to fight illegal file sharing over the internet, but only as a last resort.
The report said that the music and film content industries are currently facing "significant" challenges from online piracy.
To combat this, the document has outlined a series of measures for greater action, with the aim of reducing file sharing by 70% over a 12 month period.
Media regulator Ofcom will oversee the drive for ISPs to notify account holders in an "agreed format" about infringement of copyright. Service providers will also be encouraged to make data more freely available in cases of legal action against repeat offenders.
Alongside this, the government will introduce more "widespread education" of internet users to address the "confusion over what is/is not lawful"
However, if the 70% reduction target is not reached in the 12 month trial period, then Ofcom will be given a range of Statutory Instruments as last gasp solutions.
These include blocking of site, IP, URL, protocol or ports, as well as user bandwidth capping and shaping, and content identification and filtering.
In response to the report, director general of the British Video Association Lavinia Carey expressed her "disappointment" that more stringent measures are not coming straight away.
"The 2009 Digital Entertainment Survey, published last week by Wiggin LLP, indicates that simply sending warning letters would deter less than a third of those who illegally file-share, meaning the government is set to fall short of its target to reduce online copyright theft by 70-80% in two to three years," she explained.
"If the government [is] serious about meeting that target they must take effective action now."

Jamie and his crew are magicians. They have kept my crates running long after they should have been recycled into toasters. We have 4 cars and the "baby" has 136,000+ miles on it; between the 4, we have almost 750,000 miles on them.
Feb 13, 2000
I found out about Jamie Rockefeller from a good friend of mine who, under Jamie's tutelage, managed to keep his Nissan Pathfinder running well for something like 250,000 miles. When our 1998 Subaru Outback developed a chronic overheating problem at 84,000 that the dealer couldn't figure out, it was Jamie who diagnosed the unfortunate fact that we had a hairline crack in our engine block, and then performed the major surgery required to fix this problem (basically a new engine) for more than $2500 less than the dealer proposed to charge us for the same work. Jamie's work on more mundane matters has been equally competant, reasonably priced, and compassionate. A very capable and honest mechanic.

Jamie (Rockefeller) is a very good man, aside from being a super customer oriented mechanic. He took the time to write down a list of things he wanted to look at before he started to work. He emphasized before going all out, that he first wanted to see if the Jeep was safe. Safety is the most important factor, was his repetitive phrase. First make sure the jeep is taken care of in safety matters, then concentrate on things other concerns. He really impressed my fiancé and me with his detailed description of things he wanted to further address. He had about 10 detailed issues he described in a carefully thought out and documented (on his pad) manner. He took the truck in a test drive around the block with us and tested everything from the turn of the car, to the pickup to the abs. He started it and turned it off to determine if there was a recurring issue or if there was just a one time aberration. When I told him I only had 300 dollars to spend, it sounded to me that he had already done that much work, and he still wanted to do more without going over that price limit. I plan on doing a sort of monthly plan until the Jeep is fully up to my personal satisfaction. It's my baby, has a straight six engine, 247,000 miles, and taking it to Jamie was the best thing I've done so far. Renting a vehicle was more costly than fixing up the Jeep! So far I'm only reporting my experience with Rockefeller Auto up until now. We have yet to receive the Jeep back, but once I do, I'll give an update. This is a trustworthy mechanic. I hardly fill out these things and when I do, I give my honest opinion, for good or ill. Update to come.

We live on the west coast and our daughter lives in New York state. We bought a used Ford Fusion for her mid-August in New Hampshire when we were on a family vacation but did not know of a mechanic in New York near her for a thorough inspection after our purchase. When she recently had a flat tire I had already done some Internet research and thought Rockefeller's looked reliable, especially since Car Talk gave it a good rating. I persuaded her to have her car taken to Rockefeller's and I am glad I did. Without the flat tire we may not have known about the repairs and part replacements needed for her brakes. I called the shop several times with many questions and I felt I always got a thorough and honest answer from Jamie. I feel confident that her car has been well repaired and inspected and will be safe to drive. I appreciated that Jamie knew I was concerned about making sure he made the right repairs for her car and took my concerns seriously.

I won't call it "smart," because that would be redundant: Everything about Yasmina Reza's neo-classic is smart, and likewise this Ted Pappas-directed production. But there's one passage in the play that illuminates a lot about both Reza's craft and the themes of her cunning take on the vagaries of long-term male friendships.
The passage occurs late in this concise, intermissionless play, as the three characters finally drag the tensions between them into full light.
Till now, the conflict has been mostly between Serge, a dermatologist, and Marc, the engineer who thinks his buddy Serge is an idiot for paying a small fortune for a white-on-white abstract painting. But the long, climactic scene turns the focus on Yvan, the mediator and accommodator in this friendship triangle.
Yvan (played by Harry Bouvy) is the least professionally successful of the three, having just switched from one undesired job to another; he also has a private-life disaster waiting to happen, via a seemingly unadvisable marriage.
While Serge (Darren Eliker) and Marc (Rob Breckenridge) verbally -- and almost physically -- duke it out, Yvan lets drop an observation from his therapist (whom the intellectually overbearing Marc has, naturally, already announced is a fool).
I'm paraphrasing: "If I am who I am because I am who I am, and you are who you are because you are who you are, then I am who I am and you are who you are. But if I am who I am because you are who you are, and you are who you are because I am who I am, then I'm not who I am, and you're not who you are."
The neurotic Yvan's reading of his handwritten crib from his therapy session draws a nice laugh, and predictable derision from his two friends. But it's a measure of Reza's sophisticated structuring that this seeming bit of double-talk is actually one of the play's key points: Over 15 years, the friends have molded each others' lives so much that, when they are together, at least, they are no longer three individuals, but rather a unique sort of symbiotic organism -- one that requires its own kind of care to survive.
"Your friends need to be chaperoned, or else they'll get away," notes Marc at one juncture. It's a truism that, characteristically, cuts a couple ways, at least one of them ironic and at least one other poignant. And its an observation the Public's staging nicely follows up on in the closing scene, when the show's straightforward lighting scheme turns soft and shaded, suggesting relationships that might proceed with more thoughtfulness and less taken for granted.
Art continues at the Pittsburgh Public Theater (www.ppt.org) with eight more performances through Sun., June 27.
On June 5, I was among the hundreds at the Byham Theater for a preview screening of Josh Fox's smart, scary and impassioned new documentary about Marcellus Shale gas-drilling in Pennsylvania.
Gasland -- which goes national via HBO at 9 p.m. Mon., June 21 -- does something relatively few commentators about such drilling have done: It frames the race to exploit natural-gas deposits deep beneath Pennsylvania with what's already happening in deep-shale gas fields in some of the 33 other states where it goes on.
The results are ugly. Most of the concern about Marcellus drilling involves water quality. Already in Pennsylvania, with drilling efforts still ramping up, people and animals have been sickened when wells and other fresh water were contaminated with methane or other toxins after drilling took place.
The Pittsburgh area is a hotbed of current and projected Marcellus activity, in places like Washington County, but with efforts to drill near or even in the city itself advancing.
Meanwhile, out West, drilling is further along. From the air, some of the plains of Colorado, for instance, are revealed to be dotted with hundreds of well sites, regularly spaced as the dimples on a cracker.
One memorable sequence in Gasland finds Fox visiting a series of about ten homes in Wyoming … and setting fire to the water that comes out of their faucets.
And in a riposte to those who cite landowners who've made big bucks by leasing to drillers, Fox interviews people who deeply regret what drilling has done to the land.
Fox himself turned down a $100,000 "signing bonus" from a gas company who wanted to drill on his family land in Mylanville, in Northeastern Pennsylvania. Mylanville is a short drive from Dimock, Pa., another town where residents say drilling has poisoned well water -- and hand Fox the jars of sickly yellow liquid to prove it.
This is heavy stuff, but Fox's approach is cogent, disarmingly low-key, and even humorous. (One scene finds him playing "This Land Is Your Land" on banjo at a drill site on federal land, while wearing a gas mask.)
Another point that's hammered home is that the avalanche of deep-shale drilling was unleashed by the so-called "Halliburton loophole" in national energy policy as crafted by former Vice President Dick Cheney. The loophole exempts oil and gas drilling from most of the federal rules to protect air and water.
Indeed, Fox was refused almost all interview requests to government officials. A notable exception is John Hanger, who heads Pennsylvania's Department of Environmental Protection.
Hanger doesn't come off looking so great. But even Fox, who attended the June 5 Byham screening and took part in a lively panel discussion afterward, agreed that Hanger has lately taken a tougher line.
Still, Fox is among those who argue that the risks are such that better regulation simply isn't enough. He says we need a moratorium on shale-gas drilling as part of a strategy to get off fossil fuels altogether.
Many in the audience agreed -- in part, no doubt, not only because of BP's Gulf disaster, but also because of the June 3 accident at a Marcellus gas well-site in Clearfield County that spewed gas and toxic wastewater into the air for 16 hours.

Quantum artistic director Karla Boos has needled me (more than once) for something I wrote last year, a fall-theater roundup that seemed to imply that Quantum was playing it safe by staging the musical Candide.
My point was merely that, in a down economy, theater companies tend to edge toward name works by name talents, and the legendary Candide (with music by Leonard Bernstein) seemed to apply.
Of course, musicals are anything but easy to stage, even if you don't mount them in a former auto-body shop, as Quantum did. All the moreso Candide, whose wicked satire costumed as farce is harder still to get right.
Quantum's production did. But even people who don't fall head over heels for every Quantum show acknowledge that, unlike any other long-lived troupe in town, the company essentially builds risk into its mission by staging every production as a site-specifc work ... at a different site.
"Long-lived," indeed: Quantum's just-announced upcoming season will be its 20th, a landmark for any company. And as usual, its three slated shows mark literal and figurative journeys into new terrain.
The season opens right around the corner, with the July 29-Aug. 22 production of The Howling Miller. It's based on a novel by Finnish author Arto Paasilinna, adapted for the stage by Boos and Canadian playwright and actor Peter Duschenes.
Quantum describes The Howling Miller as a fable about the tiny country of Lapland in the years after World War II. Duschenes will direct this, Quantum's traditional mid-summer outdoor show, the lupine overtones of whose title will be echoed in its staging at bosky Frick Environmental Center. It's sure to be eagerly anticipated by those who recall such atmospheric outdoor productions as The Crucible a few summers ago.
Peripatetic Quantum often doesn't nail down its venues till later, and such is the case with its other two 2010-11 shows.
Possibilities for inventive staging, however, seem rampant in Andrew Bovell's When the Rain Stops Falling (Oct. 28-Nov. 21). Andrew Bovell's epic family drama leaps about in time and place, from 1959 London to Australia in 2039, when fish are extinct and it rains all the time. Bovell also wrote Speaking in Tongues, which Quantum staged in 2002-03.
The season concludes next March with another musical: Astor Piazzolla's Maria De Buenos Aires (March 24-April 17), with a libretto by Horacio Ferrer, and music direction by Andres Cladera, who did such a good job on Candide. The play, which continues Boos' exploration of Latin culture and dance (think Yerma, The Red Shoes, The Voluptuous Tango), is described as "A tango operita from the streets of Buesnos Aires."
Most of the roomful of works in this Three Rivers Arts Festival exhibit were playful-looking, helping fill the big, half-raw third-floor space of at the Trust Arts Education Center.
I stopped for a few minutes, for instance, at Solomon Bisker's "Recursive Photo Booth," which uses a camera, screen and digital sleight-of-hand to let you take a picture of yourself holding the picture of yourself you've just taken, ad infinitum.
But largely, I had the same problem I often have with interactive and time-based works in a gallery setting: They just take a little too much patience, especially on a night like the opening night of the arts festival. (Yeah, even if it's raining buckets outside.) And works with audio that relied on speakers rather than headphones were impossible to hear, even before the gallery got busy.
One video did work pretty well: Jon Shumway's "Upgrade: Cyborg Ascending a Staircase." It's a multilayered Duchamp riff that fuses vintage film footage, old wallpaper patterns, color magazine ads, biology texts and more into an engrossing animated collage. By some quirk of acoustics, I could even hear the soundtrack.
The show was organized by the Pittsburgh Technology Center's Art + Technology initiative.
Among the artworks that didn't blink or move, I liked Ronald Nigro's series of sleek assemblies, made from disused machine and computer parts.
Somewhere in between the two poles are a few works by Sandy K. Kaminski. Kaminski must be the single most-represented artist, with perhaps 20 works hung here. Most were traditional prints with circuit-board motifs. But others were mixed-media sculptures incorporating actual computer hardware. And at least one used a tiny camera or sensor pointed into the gallery and linked to an LCD readout. "You can come closer," the readout told me. I took a step. "That's it."
The show (at 805-807 Penn Ave.) continues from 4-8 p.m. today, noon-8 p.m. Thursday through Saturday, noon-6 p.m. on Sunday.
Because relatively few of us under 50 grew up listening to radio serials, let alone live radio theater, there's plenty of people who don't quite grasp Bricolage's concept with this series. The concept, however, is moot once you see the actual show: All you need to know is that it's funny, talented people doing funny, inventive stuff on stage for a little over an hour.
The concept, of course, harks to radio's mid-century golden age. Actors holding scripts get behind mikes and act out skits and stories and commercials, while frantic performers make the sounds of automobiles, fist fights and thunderstorms with little motors, leather belts and big pieces of metal. Mix in some live music for a classic variety-show format.
Midnight Radio is updated here and there for postmodern comic sensibilities. But imagine a less-earnest version of Garrison Keillor's A Prairie Home Companion (the best-known revenant of this kind of work), or even old Bob & Ray routines, you've got the idea.
The ensemble includes top local stage regulars like Tony Bingham, Lisa Ann Goldsmith and Bricolage's own Tami Dixon (who doubles as main sound-effects artist), along with comedian Gab Bonesso and comic and pundit John McIntire.
So in this week's season-opener of this monthly series, there's an hilarious soap-opera parody; a fake PSA celebrating the spoon; a beer-commercial spoof in mock praise of Mayor Luke Ravenstahl; two songs by the alt-country group Small Cities, playing as an acoustic trio; an audience-play secret-decoder-ring game; and a genuinely creepy adaption of a vintage radio script based on the Ray Bradbury science-fiction story "The Zero Hour."
Throw in "Hey Hon Let's Cook," a vision of how a radio cooking show originating in blue-collar Pittsburgh might go (starring the hilarious Angela M. Vesco), and this is entertainment fast-paced enough for most, and funny enough for anyone.
If you're a theater fan who's seen some of these actors in heavier dramatic roles, it's especially good fun to watch them cut loose with broad comedy. (Bricolage suggests that to get the full radio effect, you should listen with your eyes closed, but I'd argue you'd miss have the fun that way; the performances in the intimate theater space are visually wonderful, too.)
I especially enjoyed Goldsmith, whose range this month includes a haughty soap-opera diva, a '50s suburban -- and Superman if he were Chinese, as depicted in the evening's other big set-piece, playwright Ken Kassiar's truly Bob & Ray-style newscast spoof "Our Top Story tonight."
The June installment of Midnight Radio concludes with a 9 p.m. show tonight at Bricolage's space at 937 Penn Ave., Downtown. The series returns with all-new episodes in July (www.webbricolage.org).
As of this writing, it's the final week to catch this splendid new production of the first-written installment of August Wilson's famed Century Cycle (or, as Pittsburghers like to call it, his "Pittsburgh Cycle").
"As of this writing" because the production's been so successful -- hard-scrapping little Playwrights' best-attended show ever -- that last week the troupe extended its planned run by one weekend, with shows now slated through Sun., June 6.
There's a thousand things to recommend this version of Wilson's play about a neighborhood car-service in the Hill District of the 1970s. One is how the set evokes the milieu: Playwrights' artistic director Mark Clayton Southers' sets are always good, true, especially for the troupe's annual staging of a Wilson play. But this one (which premiered in 1982) summons the '70s, when Southers grew up in that very neighborhood. And from the gloriously ragged couch that's the single set's centerpiece on out, Southers (who also directed) incarnates the clubhouse feel of a place where men duck in and out, waiting for the ring on the payphone in the corner that means someone's ready to pay for a ride somewhere. It even incorporates half an vintage beater car. (You kinda have to see it to believe it.)
Typical of Wilson, Jitney's written for an ensemble -- it's a great play about fathers and sons, and ultimately about community.
Still, most signally, Wilson's work -- unfortunately almost alone in contemporary American theater -- is from an African-American point of view. And one line especially sticks with me.
One character, Youngblood, is a Vietnam vet and the station's youngest driver. He's working two jobs, worried about money and running into obstacles to his plan to buy a house. But when he complains that the white man's institutions are against him, one of the older men stops him: The white man, he tells Youngblood, isn't against you; rather, he doesn't even know you're there.
Yoiks. I saw Jitney a couple weeks back, just after catching (at the nearby August Wilson Center, no less) a screening of the latest installment of East of Liberty, local filmmaker Chris Ivey's documentary about life in the East Liberty gentrification zone. The film's collage of voices included a black teen-ager who was dumbfounded that some organization somewhere kept naming Pittsburgh "America's Most Livable City."
The designation, suffice it to say, didn't comport with his experience in a rundown neighborhood. "Where does this most-livable-city shit come from?" the kid kept asking.
The exchange Wilson wrought in Jitney -- the white man doesn't even know you're there -- is one way to start formulating an answer.

Peugeots are rarely dull; sometimes infuriating, sometimes disappointing and unreliable but rarely are they dull.
And so it is with the French maker's latest creation, the 508, although first impressions might suggest otherwise.
The new 508 is conservatively clothed. The trademark gaping front grille and dramatically swooping lines have given way to an exterior design unlikely to turn many heads.
But the positioning of this new car is likely to prick ears, as Peugeot says it is a large car, which places it in competition with Australia's besieged home-grown heroes, the Holden Commodore and the Ford Falcon.
More likely competitors, however, are mid-sizers such as the Volkswagen Passat and the Ford Mondeo, cars that offer European cachet for a reasonable price.

It's incredible how i have plans for each of the major rooms that all require the same amount of attention all with the same level of priority. All at once, all right now.
My fav nursery is light, bright and yet sharp with reds and florals. But the below nurseries/children's room all have their oomph factor in my design books.
I love the above one because of the uninhibited use of bright orange. The feel is totally young and joyful. A celebration of youth, freedom and strength. I somehow link bold orange with strength… I love the playful plaques on the wall and the bright floral bedspreads.
Now this one has a very different feel with the below blue green and chocolate. Not as playful but very colourful in a serene way. My brother in law has agreed to do those ceiling floating wood bits if I so fancy!! Nice use of the large squares on the wall. Creates a feel of many "shelves" that one can put different photos/pictures without making it feel too uncoordinated.
Casapinka has just posted this dreamy butterfly and blue nursery which I am seriously considering with looking for some butterfly gauzy material and red tones instead.
I am sure that Hannah will love the feel of a cocooned bed but also a fairy feel one. And this has it in spades, does it not?
I am also loving this red cabinet that Casapinka has also just posted. So lush and rich and strong and playful!
Bright glossy painted furniture always brightens up the room. Instant personality. Instant happiness. It's not hard to inject bright glossy painted furniture in any space…
I will also be incorporating a sweet reading nook for my girl as I'm determined to create a comfortable corner for her books, seat and lamp!
I think it's so sweet an idea. Have you got an empty space behind your door? A empty space between cupboard and door? Install a pretty lamp, a happy beanbag and some shelving and you will be making a young reader very happy!
