I have installed Xubuntu 14.04 successfully and now I am trying to figure out a few things. I want to extend a file search down to sub directories on my system. I figured out how to use (a little bit) the "find" command and it is exceptionally powerful but I would really like to have a similar capability on the GUI, since I am trying to help some who is used to using XP make the transition to Xubuntu. The GUI search ability should allow partial name searches.
I have tried various searches and come up with references to "Catfish" which looks like the right thing but most of the references are from years ago and I am a little worried about actually installing it.
Some help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Sort of PS: The reason I put this in "New to Ubuntu" is that although I've been using it for several months, it took me an hour to figure out MAYBE my desktop environment is Xfce and MAYBE the 'File Manage' is Thunar... still not sure if this is true.

Video: Why the Government Hates Homeschooling/How Public Education Leads to StatismSubmitted by 1controversialchick on Tue, 04/16/2013 - 20:00
I've posted about the Romeike family before, but I had not seen this short video detailing their case. The father makes the link very clearly, between public education and loss of freedom in a nation.
If you have not signed the White House petition, there are still 2 days left to do so.
Thank you everyone!

I think this pretty much sums
I think this pretty much sums up the whole public school situation in less than 2 min:
We all share this eternally evolving present moment- The past and future only exist as inconsequential mental fabrications.
As cynical as I am re public school
education, and as many faults & problems I could list where schools and teachers are concerned, I do not think that that clip is representative of the perspective or goals of too many.
And while I *wholeheartedly agree* that children's prescription drug use is a major problem, and that schools can be the ones pushing it on the recommendation of school psychologists (and children's medical doctors) for children that teachers have difficulty with in the classroom re behavior, it's also the case - for both Ritalin-type drugs and *anti-depressants* - that a) children's private psychologists and pediatricians push these drugs; and b) there are parents who have difficulty dealing with their children's overactive behavior, depression, and/or "underachievement" who themselves *want* them on drugs (and also legally classified so as to be granted certain extra help and accommodations). It's not just schools that are responsible for the daily fix that millions of children receive: it's also psychologists, psychiatrists, pediatricians, and parents.
When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the Universe.
~ John Muir
Thats a pretty fair analysis,
Thats a pretty fair analysis, the clip was meant to be more humorous than anything but it is telling in a number of ways.
I believe many teacher have the kids best interest at heart but the people that make the curriculum and write the textbooks are the ones revising history and shaping our children's world view. The standardized testing programs have also caused a lot of damage as teachers now must "teach for the test" to secure funding instead of working on expanding children's minds.
What you said about the drugs is spot on regarding where the druge are coming from, I think children's diet has a great impact on their behavior as well- especially with the massive refined sugar intake many kids get with processed food. The other side of the coin is that our public schools run like prisons and kids naturally get bored and fidgety sitting in a desk all day.
As far as the clip, I think their take on the pledge of allegiance is accurate. It is not patriotic or American to force our kids to pledge allegiance blindly to something like a flag. Our flag is just a symbol and will represent whatever our government want it to. I find it interesting that we "Pledge allegiance to the flag" then every politician is pretty much required to wear a flag lapel on their suit. Psychologically, this conditions us to pledge allegiance to whoever is wearing the flag or has one behind them on TV.
We all share this eternally evolving present moment- The past and future only exist as inconsequential mental fabrications.
thanks to whomever embedded
thanks to whomever embedded for me. :)
What are you talking about?
What are you talking about? "The Government" doesn't hate homeschooling. "The Government" has progressively made homeschooling in the U.S. first legal in all 50 states and continues to make it easier in most. Many, many state legislators and U.S. senators and representatives have worked hard and continue to work to make homeschooling legal. Many are working now to make it so that parents can divert their education property tax dollars to the schools of their choice -- public, private, home.
Neither does public education lead to statism. Parents are the predominate teachers of their children whether they send them to public schools, private school, homeschool, or nothing. Such language is simply a hedge-row built by parents who are too weak to create a strong family culture.
I fail to see how broadening U.S. asylum categories to include anyone who can't homeschool in their home country is a good idea. People in Germany need to change their county's homeschooling laws if they want homeschooling. We did that here in the U.S. Beginning in the late 70s and to date, Americans have been electing folks who have changed the face of education in this country. This family's claim that they'll lose their children because of the big bad German government is gross. What sort of parents would stand by "homeschooling" while their children were taken into foster care? No family that actually cares about their children. A family that's playing a game and not working through the process in their own country.
Much like Ron Paul argued against government foreign aid because it subverts and delays the progress of the foreign nation recipients, we should not offer asylum for folks who want something their government isn't offering outside of life and physical freedom. The R family needs to work inside Germany for reform. The U.S. needs to take its hands off and let people in other countries suffer enough to make their own changes.
Parents are the predominate teachers of their children...
if parents would uphold this mandate - we would be in a much better place regarding education.
Too many leave the educating to others (schools, Sunday schools/youth groups, peers, etc.) - not good.
The law cannot make a wicked person virtuous…God's grace alone can accomplish such a thing.
Ron Paul - The Revolution
Setting a good example is a far better way to spread ideals than through force of arms. Ron Paul
Yes. No matter how we as
Yes. No matter how we as parents choose to educate our children for a spell, we are in charge. I think that homeschooling my children early on brought this home to me. If we put them in a public school, that's what were choosing as the directors of their education for that time. If we choose to take them out for a spell, that's what we're choosing as the directors of their educations.
If problems occur in their public education stint, my children know that the system is not the arbiter. My husband and I are. We decide. Parents decide. We are not subject to school rules. We control our children's education.
This sounds kinda ridiculous.
Kinda like saying, "why are you saying our government hates freedom? we have more freedom here than anywhere on earth."
No, instead they just
No, instead they just bankrupt the nation so parents have no choice but to ship off their kids to government babysitting/brainwashing facilities. Your kids must also test in the public education system to make sure that you are educating them. You're given curriculum. You really have no right to educate them how you see fit, except the Amish. The state makes sure in some way with force that kids are educated to some established standard. You can't just pull your kids out of school without registering some alternative.
Maybe you and the other
Maybe you and the other voters in your state are a bit behind. In many states you can educated your children at home with no oversight. They are graduated when you declare them so. There's no "established standard" in many states. The nation isn't bankrupt in this regard and in fact has been trending toward more freedom for homeschooling. If your little corner is so bankrupt, work on it; don't condemn the states that have liberated parents to school as they see fit with your myopia.
Myopia? The whole country is
Myopia? The whole country is bankrupt. Show me a state where they ignore federal regulations on education and let people just not educate their child.
These are the states that
These are the states that require nothing from parents who wish to homeschool:
New Jersey
These are the states that require ONLY that parents notify the district that they homeschooling. Well, there are 13, including my state and I don't feel like listing them for your laziness.
That's 23 states. Um...more than half...that require nothing substantiated from parents.
The rest fall down a ladder of increasing state involvement. But nowhere is homeschooling illegal or even so burdensome that no one does it. Take note of the use of my use of the word "state." Absolutely no federal laws prevent or curtail parental decisions when it comes to the education of children privately -- whether at home or at private institutions. The gradations in homeshcooling laws are entirely state laws. No federal laws curtail homeschooling or parental choice in private schools.
You're just wrong.
When it comes to education, the trend has been toward more freedom for parents who wish to educate their children at home or in private schools. This trend is continuing with many states attempting school choice legislation that allows local tax money to follow the student, rather than the residential district, into whatever form of education his/her parents decide.
Repeat: There is NO STATE in which you cannot homeschool your child. A quarter of all states require nothing; another quarter ask only that parents notify their districts that they are homeschooling. Less than half of the other states require some form of assurance that your child is being educated. Repeat: the trend has been toward more parental control; less state control.
Repeat: no federal laws apply to a parent's decision to homeschool or place a child in private school.
Moreover, not every state has agreed to federal benchmarks in exchange for federal money. It's not a law; it's a carrot. Several states have opted out. Several others have called foul.
You're just wrong. The OP was wrong to imagine some Big Federal Dragon controlling our children's education. It is firmly within our control. Look only to the 23 states who have declared it so and ask only what is wrong with the folks in your state -- and you -- to not work to make it so for your own acreage. I've participated in encouraging education freedom in two of the states that are free-education states. Do so in your own state. Quit creating and blaming dragons too big for you to slay. For shame.
I didn't say you couldn't
I didn't say you couldn't home school your child. I said that you must educate them, and I really don't believe you that in those states you can just be like "I'm teaching my kids" and leave it at that. There is no federal department for education?
Same in France.
Same in France.
Mandatory registration (and attendance) in the state's public education system until age 16. Or, homeschooling is possible but families still must submit regularly to the "academic inspection" administration, its oversight procedures, and its public inspectors. Or else... fines or prison. Game over.
Public education programmes are centrally defined by each government administrations (more or less always the same... arguably with a good deal of "bias" as some who don't buy easily in state propaganda may find).
At the origin of it:
You don't really own your kids' brains input till their age 16 over there.
The state does.

Obama has both an illegal immigrant uncle and an illegal immigrant aunt who never get deported.

Death Row Records co-founder Suge Knight has thrown his support behind Chris Brown in the midst of negative attention the R&B star has received.
Asked about possibly working on a project with Brown, Suge answered by revealing his respect for the singer.
"Chris Brown is a lil' homie," Knight said in an on-street interview. "I got more love for Chris Brown than anybody. One of the things Chris Brown did before at the time my daughter was turning 14 years old, it was her birthday, and they were having a concert. He put her on stage, sang happy birthday, he didn't have to, showed a lot of respect and I respect him for that. So therefore, I'ma ride with him a thousand percent on whatever it is, period." (TMZ)
Ironically, Suge pleaded guilty to misdemeantor battery against his girlfriend Melissa Isaac last month stemming from a domestic dispute the couple had summer 2008.
District Attorney David Roger said police had lost contact with Isaac and without her testimony on the witness stand, prosecutors would have had a hard time proving beyond a reasonable doubt not only the domestic battery charge, but the three felonies. "Domestic violence is a serious issue in our community, and anytime we can get a domestic violence conviction without a victim cooperating, we're happy," Roger said. "We're hopeful the defendant will never batter a woman again, or he'll face more serious charges and consequences." (Las Vegas Sun)
While a project with Brown may happen, artists like Flo Rida have taken the publicized dispute with Rihanna seriously.
"I recorded a great song with Chris," Flo Rida said in an interview about his upcoming album R.O.O.T.S. "But I won't be releasing it now because of what's going on with him and Rihanna. It could have been my next number one." (Hollyscoop)
Both Brown and Rihanna are reportedly reconciling their relationship.
People and Us Weekly have reported Brown, whose hits include "Run It!" and "Kiss Kiss", and Barbados-born Rihanna, 21, spent the past weekend in Miami. E! Online reported paparazzi in helicopters buzzed over the private estate where they were reported to be staying, trying to get photos. (Reuters)
Check out Suge Knight share his thoughts on Chris Brown below:

Cut four pieces of floral foam 3 inches thick and tall enough to cover the vase halfway. Attach the foam to the outside of the vase using floral clay. Roll the clay into a snake. Press it on the vase and then press the foam onto the clay. When the four sides of the wishing well are attached, secure them with three rubber bands at the top, middle and bottom.
How to Make a Wedding Wishing Well
Make a one-of-a-kind, flower-covered wishing well to collect the good wishes and gifts of money for the bridal couple at their wedding. An announcement needs to be included in the wedding invitation that tastefully lets the guests know that checks and cash are just as welcome as a gift. The money is put in small envelopes along with the giver's name and the envelopes are placed in the wishing well at the reception.
Things You'll Need
- Floral foam
- Glass vase (clear or in the wedding colors)
- Floral clay
- Rubber bands
- Tray
- Basket handle
- Scissors
- Hot glue gun
- Tiny basket
- White ribbon
- Carnations (white or in the wedding colors)
Soak the floral foam and vase for 30 minutes in a sink full of water that covers the top of the foam. Remove and let drain for 10 minutes. Place the wishing well form in a waterproof tray or dish.
Cut off the handle of the basket and hot glue it to the outside of the glass vase right above the floral foam. The top of the handle should be 6 to 8 inches above the top of the vase.
Tie the tiny basket to the narrow white ribbon. Tie the other end of the ribbon to the top of the basket handle. The basket should dangle 1-inch over the top of the middle of the vase.
Cut the stems of the carnations to 2 inches long. Cover the foam with the carnations by poking the stems through the foam. Angle the top row of carnations so they cover the top of the foam. None of the foam should show.
Hand write a sign with a message, such as, "Your Good Wishes and Contributions Are Welcome." Attach the sign to the top of the wishing well with hot glue.
- 1
Tips & Warnings
- Don't make the wishing well too big, because it looks greedy. If the well gets too full, remove some of the cards to a safe place.
- Use polystyrene and silk flowers instead of floral foam and carnations to make the wishing well ahead of time.
- Place a few envelopes inside the vase so people get the idea of what they're supposed to do. Put cards, envelopes and pens next to the wishing well.

Music News 09/24/2014
John Coltrane, Offering: Live at Temple University (Resonance Records, 2 CDs, $26.98) – Late period John Coltrane (in his group including second saxophonist Pharoah Sanders, pianist Alice Coltrane, and drummer Rashied Ali) is intense and powerful. The concert at Mitten Hall at Temple University on November 11, 1966, is legendary for Coltrane vocalizing short horn lines in addition to playing tenor, soprano, and flute. Long bootlegged with inferior sound, Offering lets us hear the beauty (Coltrane playing "Naima" and "Offering") and the wails and shouts (on "Crescent" and "Leo") in all their glory from the original master tapes, with the saxophones sonically out front. Coltrane opened up the stage that night to Philadelphia musicians as well: five conga drummers and two alto saxophonists are also heard. There are in-depth notes by author Ashley Kahn, with insightful quotes from Coltane's son, Ravi, and from some of those on stage and in the audience that night, including musicians Robin Kenyatta, Carl Grubbs and Michael Brecker, and future jazz writer Francis Davis. John Coltrane died eight months after this concert, at age 40, but his powerful music lives on.
Leonard Cohen, Popular Problems (Columbia, $12.98) – Leonard Cohen just turned 80, and is still going strong. His wry, laconic, aphoristic couplets are still dispensed in his low baritone song-speech. The background women's chorus is still singing and echoing his lines, and producer Patrick Leonard brings in a variety of subtle arrangements. Listen to the sage voice of Mr. Cohen intone his poetic lines again.
Tweedy, Sukierae (Anti, 2 CDs, $18.98) – Wilco frontman Jeff Tweedy and his 18-year old son Spencer (on drums) have teamed up for a wonderful album of 20 new songs.
The album has guests on bass, guitars, but father and son recorded an NPR Tiny Desk Concert as a duo.
Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga, Cheek to Cheek (Interscope, $13.98) – It's obvious from listening, that Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga had fun doing the standards on Cheek to Cheek. Hear them on NPR's Weekend Edition Saturday.

The Hedonism III resort in Runaway Bay, Jamaica, will drop its erotic theme, as parent company SuperClubs will rebrand the property.
Hedonism III will close Aug. 22 and reopen Oct. 14 as SuperFun Resort & Spa. The rebranded 225-room property will be "targeted at the wallet-conscious adult traveler looking for an all-inclusive vacation, minus some of the amenities that are included in our higher-priced, super-inclusive Breezes and Hedonism II plans," said Paul Pennicook, president of International Lifestyles, SuperClubs' worldwide representative.
Airport transfers, motorized water sports and premium-brand liquors won't be included in SuperFun's rates. Local wines and liquors will continue to be included, as will all meals, accommodations, and entertainment. The resort will offer a small clothing-optional beach but no nude pool. Hedonism is known for its wild theme parties, a nude water slide that snakes through the disco and its nude beach and nude pool.
"The specific niche market which Hedonism Resorts traditionally has attracted will continue to be served by the 280-room Hedonism II resort," Pennicook said.
The target market for the SuperFun Resort will be couples in their 20s, 30s and 40s, looking for a lively, fun vacation, Pennicook said. "These travelers want plenty of bang for their buck, but the vibe will be completely different from that at Hedonism II."
SuperClubs launched a rebranding program last fall that resulted in three brands: Breezes, Hedonism and Rooms.
"That rebranding has resonated well with our industry partners and clients. We expect that the SuperFun Resort will be booked primarily through tour operators with whom we have already negotiated contracts," Pennicook said.

The Piet indoor fireplace could be the start of a whole new genre of home furnishings, the chimney-free indoor stove.
This indoor fireplace burns ethanol fuel instead of wood and gives off no smoke or soot and thereby eliminates the need of a chimney.
A layer of rockwool fire insulation between the reflector and the outer shell keeps the outside cool. This means that you can always touch the ceramic body of Piet without burning your hand and also means that it can be placed closer to walls or other furniture.

This study investigated the relationship between repetitive behaviors in individuals with autism and obsessive-compulsive behaviors in parents. We hypothesized that repetitive behaviors in probands with autism would be associated with increased obsessive-compulsive behaviors in parents in sporadic families (1 known case of autism per family and no known history of autism). Parents with clinically significant Y-BOCS scores were more likely to have a family history of obsessive-compulsive disorder. The empirically derived Autism Diagnostic Interview-R (ADI-R) factor, Insistence on Sameness, was positively correlated with obsessive-compulsive behaviors in parents. Further, when probands were grouped on the basis of parental Y-BOCS scores (clinically significant versus non-clinically significant), probands whose parents had clinically significant Y-BOCS scores had higher ADI-R Insistence on Sameness factor scores. The findings of the current study of sporadic families extend previous work that has shown an association between restrictive/repetitive behaviors in probands with autism and obsessive-compulsive features in parents.
