I haven't been in shoes like yours, but 3 of my siblings have. It is incredibly difficult to witness a person grappling with the assault depression unleashes, knowing that anything you say or do drives the stake deeper. I realize my response is of little or no consolatio, but I have a respect for the challenges you face.

Focus on the victims, their loved ones, and their progress in moving forward from this horrific act. But stop talking about the perpetrator. That individual not only destroyed the lives of the people the victims left behind, but also the perpetrator's family. Anyone with a name similar to a perpetrator's name gets threats to their safety, solely by association of the name. So, the media making a big hullabaloo of the bad guys, also vilifies innocent bystanders due to ignorance of viewers, listeners, and readers.

We all grow and change. Some people are in our lives for moments, others a lifetime.
Find something away from the computer that you enjoy, take the little ones to the park, or the library, it doesn't have to be expensive, maybe you'll find new folks to interact with, away from the computer.

All hail caesar dressing as it tops off matador salad
WE recently had a request for a recipe that replicates the matador salad from Partners Delicatessen. Thanks to Linda Snider and to Sherry Wiebe-Dembowski, who sent in an updated version of her matador salad recipe, which has appeared in the Recipe Swap column several times over the years. The dry caesar salad dressing mix that she originally used is now hard to find, so she has adjusted the recipe to reflect that. I've included a homemade version of caesar salad dressing for anyone who wants to use that as a base.
We currently have a request for a homemade version of the cappuccino-flavoured Nanaimo bars often seen in bakeries and grocery stores. If you can help with a recipe request, have your own request, or a favourite recipe you'd like to share, send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com, fax it to 697-7412, or write to Recipe Swap, c/o Alison Gillmor, Winnipeg Free Press, 1355 Mountain Ave., Winnipeg, MB, R2X 3B6. Please include your first and last name, address and telephone number.
Like Matador Salad
250 ml (1 cup) favourite caesar dressing
2ml (1/2 tsp) pepper
Pinch cayenne
7 ml (1 1/2 tsp) chili powder
10 ml (2 tsp) cumin
Beef mix:
500 g (1 lb) lean ground beef
1 x 35 g packet taco seasoning mix
5 ml (1 tsp) cumin
5 ml (1 tsp) chili powder
1 head romaine lettuce, washed and torn
1/2 head iceberg lettuce, washed and torn
250 ml (1 cup) grated Cheddar cheese
3-4 Roma tomatoes, chopped in large chunks
Taco-flavoured tortilla chips, broken up
Black olives, chopped (optional)
Dressing: In a closed container, shake all ingredients very well until blended.
Beef mix: Prepare hamburger according to taco-seasoning package directions. Add cumin and chili powder along with seasoning packet.
Salad: In a large bowl, toss together lettuces, cheese, tomatoes, tortilla chips and olives, if desired. Add dressing to taste and garnish with extra chips.
Serves 4 as a main course.
Tester's notes: This is a very hearty salad that works well as a main course. I used made-in-Manitoba La Cocina tortilla chips, which are really light and crisp.
Caesar Salad Dressing
2 garlic cloves, minced
5 ml (1 tsp) anchovy paste
30 ml (2 tbsp) fresh lemon juice, or to taste
5 ml (1 tsp) Dijon mustard
5 ml (1 tsp) Worcestershire sauce
250 ml (1 cup) good-quality mayonnaise
125 ml (1/2 cup) freshly grated Parmesan
1 ml (1/4 tsp) salt
1 ml (1/4 tsp) fresh ground pepper
In a medium bowl, whisk together garlic, anchovy paste, lemon juice, mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Add the mayonnaise, Parmesan, salt and pepper and whisk until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning, if desired. Makes about 375 ml (1 1/2 cups). Store in the fridge and use within 5 days.
Tester's notes: You might recall a scene in the devil-may-care first season of Mad Men, in which a waiter makes a big production of mixing up caesar dressing tableside using a coddled egg yolk. That is the classic way to make the iconic dressing, but this mayo-based recipe is easier and gets around the undercooked egg issue.
If you don't need a lot of anchovy, using anchovy paste, which comes in a tube and is often found in the dairy section of supermarkets, makes more sense than opening a whole tin. I added a bit more mustard and adjusted the lemon up and the mayo down for a tarter, thinner dressing. If you're using this dressing for the matador salad, you might want to leave out the Parmesan.

windows 7
Very slow internet connection
Well last month I was using an HP laptop (winXP) and it was running 54 mbps, which is fast for me. I got a new laptop (a week ago) and it's a HP and has Windows 7. Every since I started using it it's so slow and running at 12 and 18 mbps, it takes like 1 min. to load up a page. I have a Netgear router for wifi as well. So why is it running so slow the laptop is new?

Microsoft Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit
Hello bigb, welcome to Sevenforums!
12 - 15 MBps should not be slow (mine is 5 and works rather well), but 1 minute to load a single web page is slow. Try going to HP's website and looking for the internet drivers (Lan, wireless adapter, etc) and downloading them. In control panel, remove any previous drivers you've installed for those (internet) components, and then install the newest driver versions.
Additionally, see this tutorial: Internet Troubleshooting Guide

Columbia Sportswear Company And Swire Resources Limited Announce Appointment Of Samson Wong As President Of New China Joint Venture
Joint venture partners Columbia Sportswear Company (Nasdaq:COLM), a leading innovator in the global outdoor apparel, footwear, accessories and equipment industries, and Swire Resources Limited, a subsidiary of Swire Pacific Limited (SEHK:00019) (SEHK:00087) and the exclusive distributor of Columbia Sportswear in Mainland China since 2004, announced today that their new China joint venture – Columbia Sportswear Commercial (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. – will appoint Samson Wong as president effective January 1, 2014.
Wong, age 54, brings 29 years of experience with the Swire group, including the past 23 years with Swire Resources Limited, where he began in 1990 as financial controller and ascended to executive director in June 2012. Wong has led Swire Resources' efforts as Columbia Sportswear's exclusive distributor in Mainland China since 2004 and in Hong Kong/Macau since 2002.
Swire Resources' Mainland China revenues attributable to its Columbia distributorship totaled over $150 million and generated low-double-digit EBITDA in 2012, selling through approximately 70 branded retail locations and to dealers who operate more than 680 mono- and multi-brand retail locations. The new 60/40 joint venture will assume control over this existing distributor business. It will initially employ approximately 700 staff, drawn primarily from the current Swire Resources team that has grown Columbia to be the #1 outdoor brand in China, according to the 2012 China Outdoor & Fashion Sports Goods Retailing Report from ISPO China and The China National Commercial Informational Centre.
"We believe Samson's proven leadership and the continuity of the Swire team will be invaluable as we invest together and expand our relationship with a trusted business partner under the new joint venture structure," said Columbia president and CEO Tim Boyle."Samson and his team bring a deep understanding of the China market and of the strategy and operational skills required to support and grow Columbia's family of leading outdoor brands," said J.B. Rae-Smith, an executive director of Swire Pacific Limited with responsibility for Swire Resources Limited. "We are deeply committed to working with Columbia Sportswear as joint venture partners."

Turkey's gross domestic product expanded more than expected in the first quarter while the current-account deficit rose in April, according to data released today.
The economy grew 3 percent, compared with a median estimate of 2.3 percent in a Bloomberg survey of 11 economists. The current-account deficit widened to $8.17 billion in April from $4.55 billion a year earlier, in line with the median estimate of $8.1 billion in a Bloomberg survey.
The reports come as Turkish police move to retake an Istanbul square today that had been occupied by anti-government protesters, and as the central bank introduced extraordinary measures to tighten liquidity in response to currency volatility. The bank said it may start direct interventions in the currency market today to protect the lira, which had weakened 1.4 percent in the month to yesterday's close, the most among 10 currencies in Eastern Europe and the Middle East.
Turkey may have difficulty reaching its year-end goal of 4 percent growth, Economy Minister Zafer Caglayan said at a press conference in Ankara today. The economy needs to grow by 5.5 percent to 6 percent a year, he said. He blamed a recent rise in benchmark bond yields and a fall in the stock market on financial speculators making up a so-called "interest rates lobby" that he says is seeking to keep Turkey's borrowing costs high.
The lira strengthened 0.4 percent to 1.8937 per dollar at 11:43 a.m. on the back of the central bank's statement. Stocks rose 0.9 percent and benchmark two-year bond yields increased 12 basis points to 6.62 percent.

SATURDAY'S Roll Call, Aug. 17
Saturday, anyone doing anything especially interesting?
Not me :laugh:
LOL Doris, nothing interesting here. Just the same old stuff. Getting ready to head out Sunday.
How about you?
Thanx for the start, Doris.
Linda, where are you going?
Tomorrow, we are having a bunch of friends over for dinner and in the afternoon, Gabe is going fishing again. He was really excited to have caught a salmon his first time out.
Posed to rain but I have not checked the weather yet.
Up since 3: am ish with tummy. May cut back fiber suppliment to one a day for a while.
Tired out before startin laundry so that is on the agenda FOR SURE this day.
E-mail from Ila- they are coming to take me to dinner for my birthday Sept. 30, she said THEY are picking the place- guess they do not like me choices.
Guess I'll go ahead and make my mornin coffee- don't think I could get back to sleep now. I did go to bed around 9: last niht.
bbl soon
Good Morning!:hiya: House is quiet this morning-all asleep but me.
Norfolk Mermaid-sure sorry you are awake early with those tummy issues.
Begete-Way cool for Gabe catching his first salmon. I went salmon fishing one time about 38 years ago But spent the day being seasick instead of fishing. LOL now-not then though.
Mykneesareback-just want to say hello. Maybe something interesting will come your way today.
LoveMontana-my little grandkids are 4 and 20 months. Lots of changes for them and for me the last couple months what with their moving. son/daughter-in-law have found a nanny for the boys,but they need to do a 'share a nanny' for it to be financially feasible. All makes G-ma nervous. But for the weekend now, got to tuck them in bed last night and will again tonite and savor the sweet grandkids minutes while they are here. I still will have the fun of getting my two older grandkids off to school mornings starting in September.
MsSarge-Thanks so much for the wilds of Costco warning. I will be extra vigilant while I am there. LOL! We have a Trader Joes near by, but have never gone to it. Have been wanting to take a 'field trip' there. Have you ever?
Well, husband just waved at me so better go start some coffee. Little Grandsons should sleep in this morning as G-pa and G-ma let them stay up way past bedtime.
Have a super day, Everyone!
Big, big laundry done so far...
Doing some "one at a time" now to break it up a bit... then the "I hope" last of it with a big darks load. Dryer done stuff is all hung and sorted but still one dryer load when the darks are washed. Hanger dry stuff will take a while as the air is very damp even inside. Doing all I can before the heat comes back on Wednesday.
Flying the Dyson and a scrubbing (I go the hands and knees route) of the kitchen and bath floors.
The Jeep is loaded up with the "four seperate- one at a time) donation bags for Good Will so I can get a 20% discount on everything I buy that day. They give you a card they punch. Sundays are the very best days to go. hmmm, I wonder if each store lets you do that? I' ll find out as that sure would hurry up getting rid of my donations.
NOW, to find closets to put away all the hanged items.
Nice to have a break from the weeds.
Thanks 39 down! 1/2 a Percoset did the trick this morning. The after cancer surg. (2 1/2 yrs. now) can sure rear it's ugly head time and again- "pun" intended (colon/rectal cancer) .
Begete- just added Salmon Fishing to my bucket list! That is true fine eating too.
Oh Mary, our local critic did not like "The Butler" all that much. I'll wait for the rental- "patience is bitter but the fruit is sweet"! He did say it was not as "sappy" as he expected. I do like that actor though after seeing him in "THE Crying Game" years ago.
Good morning all...back to planning on N coming to clean today. I'm sure glad I'm not young anymore, the drama of life (even vicariously through her) is a bit much. I'm sure you can imagine a women in her 30's with two teens and a three-year old...her life is one drama after another.
Joni...although I warn of the wilds of the "big box stores" you don't have to be that cautious at TJ's....it's much tamer there...but, of course, the stuff jumps into the basket there, too...they have great grass-fed beef and wild caught salmon, fantastic soy/sesame chips, and the only place I can get ginger candy. be very cautious going through the wine aisles as they have some great vintages at very good prices. I guess you can tell, I love TJ's, too.
Glad Gabe enjoyed salmon fishing...my salmon fishing memories are very limited...flying in on a pontoon plane to the Yukon river, taking a boat out to the fish wheel and loading the plane with about 400 pounds of King salmon. Also, since August is the last of the spawning months in Alaska driving through the pass with the stream beside the road pack ed with the ugly little guys (the males all grow ugly snouts for fighting off the others), and then the smell when they all die.
Fur kids are begging for breakfast, so gotta run...hope you all have a great day today
Good Afternoon.
Norfolk Mermaid-I admit I had wondered re: cancer as on a post or two since I have joined Low Carb Friends you mentioned chemo left over issues or something along that line that made me think you had had a cancer adventure at some point. I admire your spirit and as I said before, you do just keep on going on.
MsSarge-Also thanks for the Trader Joe tips. Will be looking for those chips. Have been missing a crunch occasionally and I have no self-control with nuts. At Christmas, I saw some chocolate wine in the wine aisle at the grocery store and almost bought it for a gift for my daughter-in-law. I don't know much about wines-except in the very old days I think I remember liking Annie Greensprings and maybe there was a Boones Farm. Anyway, I do like to walk the wine aisle for fun looking at wine names. There are some really fun names.
Well, the little grandsons didn't sleep in too long this morning, but that's okay. They are off now with their mom and dad searching for little boy shoes. Then on to visit the other Grandma for dinner and then back here. So husband and I are heading out to the tool store for a bit.
Talk to you all later.
Well, more drama, so no cleaning today...I got some cleaning done on the pc, tho'. Does that count for anything? Been frustrated with everything running so slowly, but I guess that's how it goes...my laptop is also frustrating but there is not much I can do about it.
Also working on draining the hot tub...after spending $$ on the heater and a new cover, I give Up...now I've developed a leak, Don't know where, but probably in the hosing under the tub or in the jets somewhere....oh well, may it RIP, it's about 17 years old and I've had a good run with it; just don't want to put more money into it.
Hope all y'all had a good day
If Blue's antics weren't enough, now Red is leaving fur in the Naan basket 2.5 hours before our guests arrive for dinner.
Doris, the most interesting thing today was going to work and walking the dog after work in the gorgeous sunshine with a cool breeze up here. Thank you for our push out the door this morning.:clap:
Thanks for the reviews on the Butler. Seems all the ladies are ready to go no matter the movie they want to do supper after the show too. Yikes! I guess it is just an outing and the fun of being with company.
Babette, I guess those kitties are keeping you busy. I love it! ;)
I just had Salmon for my supper tonight but not as fresh at that one Gabe landed. It is good to hear that he is enjoying parts of life again.:up:
Waving at everyone and hope to bbt...:cool:
I admit I chuckled when I saw the picture, Begete! That's one of the reason's I don't have a cat anymore. My brother's wife had 4 cats, and you couldn't get a cup of coffee in that house that didn't have cat fur floating on top, nor eat on any plate that you didn't have to blow the fur off of it, cakes with frosting had fur, it just turned us off. It's still that way at their house, after all these years, different cats though. ;)
Doris, we did it again.
Babette, I cannot see the pic on FB it is not there when I click on your link.
I am on FB too.
Susan, that is really funny, I'm in here at an odd time, too, was doing dishes and had time before dh wants me to watch boxing with him, lol.
Have a good evening!!
Everyone else on here, the same to YOU! :)
Red simply appointed himself as the center piece for the dinner and a mighty fine one at that! WHAT a hollor those two are!
I am about ready for bed but the laundry all done. I'll deal with the put aways tomorrow which won't be bad as all is on hangers and there are very empty spots in 3 of the closets... dresses in one (short & long); tops on a top pole and shorts on a lower pole in the next closet and pants on the space left on the top pole. Sleep wear in the bedroom closet.... then maybe hit Sam's club or the rocery store at least. Craving my fro yo treats to have for August- may go ahead and skip the Blue Bunny Vanilla as the rain is crimpin my exercise outside.
Sleepy zzzzZZZZZZ bbt
I LOVE the tablecloth, Begete!!!!
Love the Centrepiece! ;):D
Sooooooo Cute! :cool:
LOLOLOLOL!!! Babette you have quite a pair! They really keep you on your toes. :D

Madigan's bid to shift control of Lincoln museum advances
By DAVE MCKINNEY Springfield Bureau Chief May 26, 2014 7:59PM
Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan | Sun-Times files
Updated: June 28, 2014 6:30AM
SPRINGFIELD — The push by House Speaker Michael Madigan to shift control of the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum advanced in the House on Monday amid questions about the speaker's friendship with a pair of key players in the last-minute, fast-moving policy debate.
The Chicago Democrat's plan, which was filed late Friday as lawmakers were heading into the long Memorial Day weekend, moved out of the House Executive Committee on a 10-1 vote and now awaits action by the full House.
His measure would take the Lincoln library and museum away from the state Historic Preservation Agency and establish a separate agency to oversee one of Springfield's top tourist destinations, which has drawn more than 3 million visitors since opening in stages during 2004 and 2005.
The new agency would be controlled by a board of directors appointed by the governor and subject to confirmation by the Illinois Senate. That board would be empowered to pick the library and museum's executive director.
"Given the significance of this library and museum to the state of Illinois, it ought to be a free-standing entity operating on its own without being required to operate under jurisdiction of another agency," Madigan told the panel.
After Monday's hearing, Madigan acknowledged having a friendship with the museum's executive director, Eileen Mackevich, and her longtime friend, Stanley Balzekas Jr., who is the landlord of Madigan's district office at 6500 S. Pulaski Road.
"He's an eminent Lithuanian-American," Madigan said of Balzekas, who founded and runs the Balzekas Museum of Lithuanian Culture, which operates out of the same building as Madigan's state office and ward headquarters.
Madigan said he has been considering the idea for "four or five months" but denied being lobbied for the bill by either Balzekas or Mackevich, who was honored as the Lithuanian museum's 2007 Award of Excellence recipient.
"I would consider them friends of mine," Madigan said of Balzekas and Mackevich, describing the couple's relationship together as "friends for a long time."
Balzekas and Mackevich are not married, though they frequently attend functions together.
In an interview, Mackevich said she supports Madigan's plan, which does not put her in lockstep with the governor's office, which has not yet staked out a position on Madigan's idea.
"It's a good idea if it's possible and if it works for everybody," she told the Chicago Sun-Times. "I think that the museum and library are among the gems of the state, intellectually and culturally. And the fact it would be able to be a standalone institution would strengthen it greatly."
The administration is neutral on Madigan's legislation, Chris Wills, a spokesman for the Historic Preservation Agency, said before Monday's hearing.
Mackevich and Historic Preservation Agency Director Amy Martin have had disagreements, including over where to house and how to display a potential gift from former U.S. Sen. Adlai Stevenson III of his political papers and those of three previous generations of his family, including his father, Adlai Stevenson II, who was a former governor and a Democratic presidential nominee, and Adlai Stevenson, who served under President Grover Cleveland as vice president.
Martin and Mackevich also have disagreed on the importance of a potential exhibit of Civil War-era music at the Lincoln museum, which was Mackovich's idea. She described it as not a "high priority" for Martin, who could not be reached Monday.
But Mackevich insisted a personality clash with her boss, Martin, is not what is driving Madigan's legislation.
"I don't think this is a personality clash. If that's what people are trying to say, that's not so. I'm long in the tooth. I'm a person who's been founder and president of the Chicago Humanities Council. I ran the National Bicentennial Commission. I'm willing to share of my knowledge and learning. I think what we're talking about is different visions, not a personality clash," she said. "There's a big difference."
The library and museum have had a succession of executive directors since its inception and has first faced questions about patronage even before ground was broken on the complex. When former Gov. George Ryan first sought out to staff the facility shortly after its 2001 groundbreaking, he contemplated moving his longtime chief of staff, Robert Newtson, into Mackevich's current role but backed off amid criticism from then-U.S. Sen. Peter Fitzgerald, R-Ill., and a string of hard-hitting columns from the late Sun-Times political columnist Steve Neal.
Madigan, who was at the center of a patronage scandal at Metra last year in which he allegedly tried to influence raises and hiring decisions at the transit agency for decades, denied that his move would politicize the Lincoln library and museum or turn it into his own "political playpen."
"No, I wouldn't expect that," Madigan told reporters.
The only "no" vote during Monday's committee roll call came from state Rep. Joe Sosnowski, R-Rockford, who said he was not aware of operational problems at the Lincoln library and museum to warrant changing its control structure.
Sosnowski also said he was not aware of Madigan's friendship with Balzekas and Mackevich.
"That just adds to my concern if there's some personal issues there. Obviously, that raises a concern," Sosnowski told Early & Often, the Chicago Sun-Times online political portal. "To have this kind of come out of left field at the last minute of session raises question marks in my mind."
Madigan made his presentation to the House Executive Committee along with the chairman of the library and museum's advisory board, Urbana lawyer J. Steven Beckett, who has held the post for two years.
"It was a great honor to be selected and I think everyone of us who was selected on the advisory board had great hopes that we're going to have a significant role to play regarding the operation of the museum and library here in the state of Illinois. We were greatly disappointed when we saw the organizational structure," Beckett said.
"We actually had very little say in the operation of the library and museum. We have struggled with vacancies particularly on the library side. We have an internationally preeminent library that is currently down 17 staff members," Beckett told the committee.

I think, somewhere in the back of our heads, we all had to know that this was eventually where Facebook would go. Yes, the erstwhile media darling of social networking, so prized because it was so private (unlike that icky old predator-friendly MySpace), has succumbed to the public pull of the Internet—when they prompt you to update your privacy settings now, they've already selected a default option to publish your information to "Everyone."
This change comes as part of the new privacy migration tool, where users get to update their privacy settings as Facebook moves to improved privacy settings. (Or was that improved publicity settings?) It looks like this is the change promised in July to appease the Canadian government's privacy complaints.
Facebook, it seems, is now jealous of today's social media sweetheart: Twitter. The theory goes that FB wants people to select the "Everyone" option so that status updates, especially, will be publicly shared, and Facebook will be like Twitter, only better. (Note that, above, the "Everyone" option is only preselected for a few settings, other defaults include "Friends" and "Friends of Friends.")
At Facebook's blog post, people are already complaining about the loss of privacy and such features as the ability to hide wall posts, profile pictures and friend lists. (I can't vouch for these, but several people are complaining about them.)
Users will be prompted to update their settings and are free to return to their old settings or customize the settings however they want. Yeah, it's not cool that Facebook goes and selects "Everyone" as the default, but if they're prompting their users to update their settings themselves, and not changing anything until the users approve it, then . . . is this really that big of a deal? What do you think?

Mercedes-Benz's head of motorsport Toto Wolff says the "unacceptable" collision between Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton at Spa-Francorchamps "cannot - and will not - happen again".
The pair clashed at Les Combes on lap two of the 2014 Formula 1 Shell Belgian Grand Prix. Rosberg had moved alongside Hamilton down the Kemmel straight, but as the Briton held his line through Les Combes, Rosberg's front wing hit the left rear of Hamilton's car, with the subsequent puncture and damage effectively ending the Briton's race hopes.
Wolff said the accident was a clear transgression of the fundamental rules Mercedes have laid down in an effort to allow the pair to race together without compromising the team's overall objectives.
"Today we saw our worst case scenario when the drivers made contact on lap two - and that ultimately cost us a one-two finish today, because we saw that our car had that kind of performance in it," Wolff said.
"It has been our clear policy to let the drivers race this year but rule number one is: don't hit each other. To see that kind of contact, so early in the race, is an unacceptable level of risk to be taking out on track.
"It cannot - and will not - happen again."
Wolff added it was absolutely imperative for the team to convert their performance advantage into silverware - an objective threatened by the lap-two clash.
"Overall, not a good day for the team - and it is clear that we need to strengthen our focus on securing the constructors' championship by delivering the potential of both cars in the next races," he said.
"Now we need to regroup and come back stronger in Monza."
After having a chance to review the incident on TV, Rosberg said: It was a racing incident, thats the best way to describe it, and thats how the stewards saw it."
Asked whether he thought it might have been a better idea to have waited for another opportunity to overtake Hamilton later in the race, the German added: I didnt see any risk in trying to overtake, so why should I not try? The opportunity was there [to overtake], even without DRS because I was so much quicker, so I gave it a go.
[Going] inside was not possible so I tried around the outside. To ask should I have waited? is very hypothetical because who knows what happens afterwards. The opportunity was there and for me it was not a risky situation.
Hamilton, meanwhile, said he was devastated to retire, insisting he had given Rosberg enough room.
"I'm gutted with the result - not just for my own championship hopes but for the team, as we really should have had a one-two today," he said.
"I didn't fully understand what had happened until I saw the replay just now, but I gave him plenty of space, took the corner like I usually do and suddenly felt a big hit from behind. There was nothing I could do about it and that was effectively my race over.
"What happens next is not my call - that's one for the bosses to make. But I'm now almost 30 points behind in the championship so that's the main thing on my mind. It's a big gap and it will be hard to recover from here."

Some are broken. Kwin had issues with Gimp's hint last time I looked (for example). Windows would get mixed up with other windows from other applications. I don't know if they fixed it not since then. It was a while ago.Most WM do the same things, take the same hints.
In practice it was pretty miserable. Each to their own, though.As for Windows, XP had a damn good WM 10 years ago. It let you group windows in the window list, offset stacking, tiling (horizontal/vertical and fit, IIRC). That's not too bad, IMHO.
PS: Steve K is right for the most part. Right now, apart from UI issues, GIMP only needs a handful of features to become very competitive in the photo editing business.
i love the new interface
PS: Haven't tried the newer 2.7.3 version. This is my opinion on how things were with 2.7.2
As for classic toolbars, the UI folks make vertical space a priority due to dominance of 16:9 and 16:10 displays.
Finally, it's not just "taking the existing docks and stapling them to the main window". Quite a few things have changed in the docking infrastructure. Most visibly, you can now docks stuff sideways, not just top and bottom. Also, there are some changes in widgets with intention to make things more compact and useful.
Certainly WM hints are not equally implemented everywhere. Good point. If you don't mind me asking, what WM do you use?
As for WXP WM, it seemed pretty full featured for a WM which nearly every *nixer dismissed as crap. I won't argue as to the ability/lack-there-of to assign keystrokes which would make it less usable, however.
Metacity before, Gnome-shell now.Good point. If you don't mind me asking, what WM do you use?
Features don't matter much to me. It's what works. Simpler the better.As for WXP WM, it seemed pretty full featured for a WM which nearly every *nixer dismissed as crap.
Like I pointed out Photoshop in OS X uses nothing but multiple windows and nobody has a issue with it at all. It works without people realizing it works. Zero effort. But in Windows you can't get away with that sort of thing.
Linux desktop suffers heavily from too much comparability and to much complexity. It just ends up buggy with no uniformity.

If you already know all this, we'll all be over tonight at about 7:30."--Hal Rubenstein, New York Magazine Matthew Kenney is a shining star at his big city restaurants. He's also a big city home cook. This fabulous cookbook is as stylish as it is practical, and it's the perfect solution for anyone who's ever tried to rustle up dinner for eight in a small apartment kitchen or attempted to barbecue on a 3-inch balcony. But the best thing about cooking in the big city is that the world's produce markets and delicious gourmet ingredients are right at your doorstep. Using simple, efficient techniques like grilling, searing, roasting, and stewing, these recipes have plenty of downtown clout-without uptown fuss. There's advice on stocking the pantry, buying just the right pans for a limited workspace, and plenty of menus to make entertaining easy. Plus, the eye-catching PVC cover is a cinch to wipe clean.

Libya: Scapegoats of fear: Rights of refugees, asylum-seekers and migrants abused in Libya
Libya: Scapegoats of fear: Rights of refugees, asylum-seekers and migrants abused in Libya
Télécharger :Index AI : MDE 19/007/2013
Date de publication : 20 juin 2013
Catégorie(s) : Libye
The human rights of tens of thousands of foreign nationals, including many asylum-seekers and refugees, are being routinely violated by the government and various militias in Libya. Against a background of political instability and lawlessness, foreign nationals are being exploited, arrested and indefinitely detained pending deportation. This report shows that the government has failed to combat the growing xenophobia and racism that are fuelling the abuses and spreading baseless fears about foreign nationals, and has yet to implement an asylum system to protect those fleeing persecution.

text: Items 25 to 36 of 42 total Previous 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 Next View: 12 / 24 / 48 Don't Reef Without It By Joe on 1/15/2014 Joe would recommend this product to a friend I was concerned about the cost, but a few months later, can't believe I ever lived without it. Worth every penny. Even bought a second 8-bar unit and a 50-ft USB extension (http://www.usbfirewire.com/) to hook it up to my infinity edge on the other side of the room with a conductivity probe. Now I don't have to worry about salinity fluctuations in that horribly difficult aquarium! Only a little intimidating By Robert on 12/18/2013 Robert would recommend this product to a friend Well worth the price for lab grade, if you dont want to read instructions just remember, aquabus ports are not for usb devices haha. Wish i got this years ago!!!! Excellent product and a must have for vacations! By Jeff on 12/13/2013 Jeff would recommend this product to a friend Mr Saltwater Tank setup videos were a huge help! So far with a little research I have found what I needed for the Advanced Control Type option. Now to find time to read over the huge online manual! SUPER CONTROLLER By Eric on 12/12/2013 Eric would recommend this product to a friend I am just beginning to understand the capabilities of this controller. Thats what I love about it. The possibillities are almost endless. This removes tons of headaches in managing my tank. I am very happy I got this. Must have for any reefer By Frank on 11/23/2013 Frank would recommend this product to a friend I love the apex. I use it to control everything and after only five months I can't imagine not having it. It can do so many things that I am sure I have only scratched the surface but I you want you tank to help ensure you tank is successful and thriving this is definitely something that will make your life easier. Good Controler By pruksakan on 11/9/2013 pruksakan would recommend this product to a friend It is a good controller come with great pH probe. Only bad thing is a manual hardly to understand how to setup. Thank for Mr.Saltwater tank for the setup clip. I'm very happy after set it up and monitor each equipment. Better Neptune crate a cloud control system such like D-link control it IP Webcam. Get your aquarium a brain already! By Bobby on 10/24/2013 Bobby would recommend this product to a friend I spent 4 hours reading reviews trying to decide if I should buy this. The price seems steep, but I finally bought it. It cleared up so much clutter with its EB8 and the possibilities you can do with this are incredible. The temp and pH probe are very sensitive and pick up changes within seconds. It is a PITA to program (especially at 3am) but don't let that deter you. I should have bought this sooner. This guy's programming helped a lot (after reading the manual from Neptune's site): http://www.kenargo.com/apexProgram/ apex By jose on 10/11/2013 jose would recommend this product to a friend wish it was as easy 2 set up need better instructions 4 set up Great so far By Jon Paul on 8/18/2013 Jon Paul would recommend this product to a friend I am using this controller in my greenhouse. The greenhouse is my home for my aquaponics system. This system uses fish waist as nutrients for plants that grow in flood drain beds and NFT channels. This is the first year that my system has fish in it. I new that i would need a controller, but had looked for a long time and not found one that would meet my needs. Once I saw this one I got really excited and new that it would work. So far I plugged it in and got access right away over the home network. I could not get the port forwarding to work but had my brother do that part. It only took him 15 minuets. Now I can use my phone to monitor my system when I'm gone. I can't weight to program my outlets to do different things. I will need a lot of automation in my system. I plan on getting... a temp probe to control the air temp and 2nd power strip for ventilation A ups plugs into the 3rd power strip. I plan on modifying the ups with the addition large external deep cell batteries to run the vitals of the system. Flow switches installed on the water outputs of vital pumps. These will hook to the breakout box a send txt messages it pump turns off or stops running Dosing pumps to mix things like potassium bicarbonate into system. All this equipment will cost a lot but will pay for itself in no time. complicated By Daniel on 7/25/2013 Daniel would recommend this product to a friend I bought this thing last week. The programing capabilities seem to be endless, but I wouldn't know since I have not been able to get it to connect or do anything with my home computer yet. If you get it right, It's easy, if not, it's needlessly complicated. That said, if you want full control of all the support stuff on your tank this is the ultimate control freak. It has all the depth you will ever need to add anything you want in the future and manipulate till your hearts content. Good investment overall. Time to call the tech-support geeks. Great Controler By John on 7/7/2013 John would recommend this product to a friend Cant believe I waited so long to get this controller worth every penny. You need to get one. Remote control By Kacey on 7/3/2013 Kacey would recommend this product to a friend Had another high-end controller and although it worked adequately, the programming was "old school" and laborious to deal with. I just got this Apex, but I'm excited to be able to link it to my home network and more importantly, to be able to access it via my iPhone while away. Seems like a huge step forward!

The health insurance plan is very good.
The allowance for extra personal time off is really good.
Most people (peers) were really nice to work with.
the company is only about making money for the stock holders, now; not much long term vision.
Pay was low for the work expected from employees. management, in general is not open to the employee base.

Unrealistic deadlines
Company makes up for cost of doing business with low pay and demands to work many extra hours every weekAdvice to ManagementAdvice
Invest in building a great product to sell instead of selling unattainable solutions - you're constantly playing a game of catch-up and eventually you WILL fall behind. The pace that's being set is unmaintainable.Doesn't RecommendDisapproves of CEO

Local company in NH seacoast area, lots of opportunity in the software development industry. Good place to work for "techies".Cons
Organization is running a bit too lean therefore it provides a poor work life balance. Methodologies need to be refined and adopted company wide to be effective.Advice to ManagementAdvice
Invest time and money into the overall business's infrastructure and take the time to fully document your products to ensure the wheel does not need to be re-invented every time you implement your products to your customers.No opinion of CEO
