PHRF - Narragansett Bay
You will have the time of your life racing round-the-buoys with good friends in your boat, or joining someone who already owns a Colgate 26. This section gives you plenty of information about the Colgate 26 Class Association – its by-laws, constitution
There are many owners who are just enjoying their boats for day sailing and not racing at all; but a lot more are racing as a class, or in fleets with PHRF ratings and doing very well.
If you don't see your area, send us some information about where you sail following the format used below.
Note: You don't have to have an official fleet number - Contact Us
Buy a new Colgate 26 now and spend time with family and friends enjoying the great outdoors under sail. There's just no better way to reduce your carbon footprint these days!
Ted Squire –who lived in Marblehead, MA when he owned C26 Alannah, compiled the following resource in response to a query from another owner. The following section (except for notes in bold italics) was written by Ted Squire.
In most areas Cat 4 is spelled out by the General Sailing Instructions. Some casual PHRF SIs might not require Cat 4. But in New England Cat 4 is most common even for causal weeknight races.
If this is your first boat of this size, I strongly suggest purchasing Colgate's safety package as a great starting point. You might be able to beat the price by a tiny bit but I, for example, didn't try. Besides there are other pesky issues: Like the Colgate package includes an anchor that perfectly fits the locker and it complies with the anchor listed in the Class Rules. So their package is easy, safe and less work.
I was the first C-26 racing in our area. We raced the boat very hard from the very first day. I had incredibly good crew and we won some races. Thus there was pressure against the boat in every area. Meaning folks questioned if we were carrying any safety gear at all and whether our handicap was fair and reasonable.
Since I carry a full compliment of day sailing gear, including cabin cushions I decided to get a copy of the full OCR Category 4 safety regulations. That's the requirement for day racing in PHRF unless your local Sailing Instructions specifically say otherwise.
You can find them at: www.orc.org from the home page click on Special Regulations and then "Extract for Category 4 Monohulls" That makes it reasonable to read just what applies to you.
I corresponded with Jim Taylor and his opinion was that his design complies. You might wish to add a latch pin to hold the hatch boards in place. I have a small hole and a light cord.
The dip in the bow pulpit should have a lifeline across it but the New England measurer suggested he did not think it was necessary for three reasons: The dip was not very deep or wide. That's the way the boat came. That rule was written for a different bow pulpit design. Another measurer could force you to add a little lifeline, but I doubt it. I chose not to add a safety wire to my bow pulpit. A second concern about lifelines is something across the stern of the boat. My local measurer brought this to my attention and I was not about to tell him I think our stern is safe as Colgate built it.
The Marblehead boats now have a wire lifeline from the aft end of the cockpit railings that goes around the backstay. We used different methods of attachment to the cockpit railings. I am cheap so I seized d-rings to the railings and tie the wire with a legal "taut lanyard of synthetic rope". Others bought 2 clamps and mounted them to the rail. Most of us seized d-rings to the backstays. I think all of us remove this wire for daysailing. It makes it easier to install and use the outboard motor, particularly for us singlehanders.
item a) says that "Lifelines installed from 1/99 shall be uncoated and used without close-fitting sleeving." All C26's now have uncoated 3/16" lifeline to comply with this regulation.
We carry the standard Porti-Potti
Find yourself two 2.4 gal buckets and attach a lanyard to each. I found that the cheap 10 quart white buckets from Boat US filled the bill. With one inside the other I also had a great storage spot for all of the other loose safety gear. When I place a 5 lb fire extinguisher in each of the drink holders on the starboard bunk, everything stays nicely and neatly in place.
Not required unless you have the sink and electronics thru-hulls. I carry just one. It will be given to the next SOB who asks if I carry them!
Use two small 5 pounder's to comply. That means you don't need the 10 pounder in the Colgate safety package.
Colgate has us covered
Steve Colgate wins again
I had one from another boat. It fits perfectly between the cooler and the v-berth. The lowest priced Davis reflector is a great bargain and it always gets good reviews for size and strength of reflection.
I have a huge collection from other boats and doing deliveries. If you have nothing: ChartKit, light list, large local chart, simple plotting tool kit from West Marine. Note: You must have the light list for your area. But it is only revised every 4-6 years.
This is a layout of your boats equipment stowage and only requires mention of the major items of safety equipment. I labeled my bucket!
My lead line lives in the bucket. It's amazing how many one-design racers carry some type of sounding thingee.
Tools and spare parts, including effective means to quickly disconnect or sever the standing rigging from the hull shall be provided. If you've had someone clip your backstay just before a start, then you've had a mast in your lap. You also know this isn't a silly rule. Good cutters are very useful. Pack them in a zip lock with some oil and they last a lifetime.
On misc "buoyant equipment:" My wife does great looking printing and has a waterproof permanent marker.
The new LifeSling works great for us. With the scoop stern you don't need fancy lifting gear and anyone is strong enough to get a heavy person back aboard.
After much research I purchased all Solas Flares. Steve Colgate kindly checked with US SAILING about a phantom regulation that says we are not required to have Solas flares. Such a US SAILING regulation turned out to be a myth. Solas Flares are not what's required by the USCG and they cost more. White US CG flares meet the Solas specification. Red USCG flares do not. Be careful when purchasing or you will spend more than you must. Note: SOLAS flares are legal for a longer period so they are not that much more expensive in the long run. But they are MUCH better performing flares (see www.westmarine.com).
Try West Marine for their nifty little throwable bag you can hang on the cockpit railing.
There is an old work-around to this. Have your sailmaker put tiny rings in your jib's luff tape at 3 foot intervals. Then cover both sides of the rings with insignia cloth. That stops any chafe of the rings on the headstay. The rings are to be used to lace this heavy weather jib to the headstay, thus eliminating reliance on just the luff groove for safety.
Like many boats today I require my crew to bring their own Cat 4 compliant lifejacket. And we wear them from mooring to mooring. The regs require whistle, reflective material, owner's name. It's my opinion that no reasonable seaman will skimp in this area. Try www.westmarine.com for pricing on these items. But the total isn't a big deal compared to total cost of boat, racing sails, etc. I'd guess I spent more this year on drinks and food for my crew.
I hope this helps you. I'll be happy to answer other questions you may have. If you join us in owning a Colgate you won't be disappointed. This weekend I sailed a Sonar. It's a nice boat, but the Colgate is heads and shoulders better. It's even better at things like sailing up and stopping at your mooring or sculling over to the boat hoist.

Cockerill envious of rivals' buying power
ESPN Staff
October 10, 2012
Will Tigers boss Richard Cockerill get his hands on the Heineken Cup silverware at the end of the season? © Getty Images
Leicester boss Richard Cockerill believes English rugby's leading clubs are 'fighting a losing battle' against the superior financial might of their European rivals.
The Tigers will be hoping to kick start their latest Heineken Cup campaign against four-time winners Toulouse on Sunday but Cockerill insists they are already playing catch-up to the French giants and their fellow Top 14 clubs.
"The English clubs just don't have the same buying power," Cockerill told The Times. "Where have the marquee signings been in England in the last couple of years? I can name quite a few in France. I can't go and buy Matt Giteau or Bakkies Botha [both recently signed by Toulon]. Toulouse have got Luke McAlister, Lionel Beauxis and Jean-Marc Doussain as their three No.10s. They need a loose-head, so they go and buy Gurthro Steenkamp [South Africa prop]. That's what we're competing with."
Aviva Premiership clubs are restricted by a salary cap of £4.26m per season but as of last year have the ability to make one 'marquee' signing outside of this limit. However, they have still struggled to compete with clubs across the Channel and in Japan where former Tigers winger Alesana Tuilagi recently moved on a deal worth a reported £400,000 a year.
"Five or six years ago, players were half the price and the salary cap wasn't a lot different," Cockerill added. "We're fighting a losing battle to a degree. But we feel that if we've got everybody fit, we can compete with anybody. We go into Europe trying to win the tournament. How realistic that will be is a completely different matter."

Brom directed Saphira to a clearing in the trees just outside the city. As everyone climbed down off her back, Brom turned to Eragon and Saphira and glared at them.
He then turned to Arya. "Arya Svit-kona, are you alright?"
The elf nodded, though she was visibly shaken from her experience.
"Yes. It is good to see you, Brom." replied Arya in an exhausted, but relieved tone.
Turning to Eragon and Murtagh, she inquired, "Which one of you is the Rider?
"I am." replied Eragon, holding up his hand to show the Gedwëy ignasia on his palm.
"I am Eragon, and this is Saphira." He said, gesturing to his dragon.
"I am Murtagh." Murtagh introduced himself.
The elf nodded and said, "I am Arya Dröttningu, daughter of Queen Islanzadi of the elves. I wish we could exchange proper greetings, but we are woefully short on time."
Arya spoke to Brom, "The Shade, Durza, pried into my mind! He knows of the Var

"Brisingr!" the dragon rider yelled. Eragon turned to him looking at his performance very impressed.
"Good aim, Yalkin," Eragon told him.
"Elrun ono, Eragon Shadeslayer," he responded.
Yalkin walked away and Eragon sat down exhausted. What troubles you little one? Saphira asked him as he saw her land right in front of him.
These new riders are so exhausting. I don't know if I can do it all. It's not like I can get Arya to fly up here, I mean she busy taking care of her people and training Firnen.
Saphira looked at him with one big blue eye. Even though she was a dragon she had started to get strange feeling for Eragon other than her rider. Even though there was still Firnen, she was never really interested in being with him. Plus, they were in two different lands so it would be impossible for her to m

"I've no interest in joining anyone's cause." Murtagh declared, staring at the two men who sat across from him at the campfire.
"Perhaps that is for the best." replied Brom wearily as he gazed into the fire, the flickering glow dancing around his aged facial features.
Eragon frowned upon hearing this. Two days had passed since Brom's narrow brush with death, and the old former Rider was still weak from the effects of the seithr oil. Despite his weakened condition, Brom had insisted that the group keep moving, but now it seemed that Murtagh wanted to take his leave.

Allheart phone number FOUND
- 0Apr 1, '09 by joyflnoyzwasn't til after I placed an order that the thought entered my head to check allnurses regarding allheart.com .
Placed my order, paid for 2nd day shipping. got an email after the order should have shipped telling me that ONE item was backordered and they were holding the whole order. Searched for quite a while last night looking for a phone# where I could speak to a real person. Unsuccessful . Came home to a message from them today with a phone #
i have cancelled my order and will not order again.
they have extremely limited hours ..the msg left on my machine said 0700 to 1430 central; when I called the outgoing msg said 0800 to 1530 central
if anyone else needs to contact allheart the number is (847) 821-7755
- 0Apr 1, '09 by ChocoholicRNI've ordered virtually all of my scrubs from allheart, never had a problem. I have had to wait for items on back order, but they didn't hold up my entire order. They would send me an email saying "x" items are being shipped out on this date, and "y" items are on back order and will be shipped when they come in. Sorry you had such a bad experience, I happy to be happy with their products and prices.
- 0Apr 1, '09 by whipping girl in 07I've ordered stuff from them for years. Never had a problem.
- 0Apr 2, '09 by Not_A_Hat_Person, RNFor some reason, every time I tried to order from allheart.com and used a debit card, I would get a letter a week later saying the card declined. They had my phone number, so I don't know why they couldn't call. Apparently, my PO box is also a problem. I havent ordered from them since.
- 0Apr 2, '09 by MagsulfateI have been getting my scrubs from medicalscrubsmall.com . I really like this site,, it has all the different brands, and it is reasonably priced. I usually get my scrubs in two days and that is standard shipping.
- 0May 5, '09 by melogan111I placed an order at allheart.com for a pair of clogs. A week later I still have not received any correspondence from them. I went to their website and of course there is no phone number listed. I tried to track my order online and it "could not be located". Finally found this posting for the phone number. (847) 821-7755 is no longer the current phone number they have changed it to 1 866-947-5684. They are still having problems locating my order even with the order number from the conformation email they send directly after I placed my order. I will never order from allheart.com again!
- 0May 5, '09 by MzMouseI placed a large order with AllHeart and it was a month before I received anything. Several of the items were back-ordered and it seems to delay them sending anything. After several emails I finally got the order, but I was really disappointed. I will never order from them again.
- 0May 6, '09 by jplyrnI recently placed a large order with AllHeart and was pleased with the price and selection. HOWEVER, I have had more problems with this order than I have ever had with a retail company. I tried searching for a phone number because my e-mails were never answered. 866-947-5684 works and I reached someone right away. I was overcharged by about $30 and have yet to receive any items 16 business days after my order. I would be very hesitent to use them again. Buyer Beware!

I'm wondering if a .357 lever gun would be a big enough caliber for a close-in brush gun for deer? Say, 50-75 yards out?
I know in certain places they have pistol season. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the 357 is the smallest round you can hunt with a deer in pistol

Strattera Advice Anyone????

Hi, I'm new to this forum
|Thu, 04-30-2009 - 10:21pm
Hi, and welcome!
Strattera is a Norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor, not a stimulant like most other ADHD meds. It HAS to be ramped from the lowest dose ( 10 mgs) and is dosed by weight. It is raised slowly to the target dose to avoid side effects such as mood swings( severe) and liver damage. The target dose is 1.2-1.8 mgs per Kilo of body weight. At too high, or too low a dose, or ramped too fast mood swings, irritability, sleeplessness, sleepiness etc are common side effects.
DD took Strat for 2 years, and did extremely well on it, we would go back if we could. She gained too much weight while taking it, so we were forced to stop it. Not all kids will do this, mine tends to also gain on Stims, all kids are different though. Strat did wonders for DD's anxiety,

Newly married couples' dilemma: How much in a hongbao?
Published on Feb 2, 2013 4:10 PM
Give too small a hongbao and you could look bad. Give too generously and you could feel the pinch.
This is the dilemma young Singaporeans face in their first Chinese New Year as a newly married, hongbao-dispensing couple. Without previous experience, some couples do not know "the market rate" or if there is even such a thing at all.
Couples tell SundayLife! that they decide the amounts based on what their parents had given their relatives over the years, what they themselves had received growing up and on their income.
Hongbao giving is both an art and a science, says business undergraduate Onson Li, 25, who married two months ago. "You want to give enough so that you won't feel guilty but not too much that the other party will feel guilty about it because he could have given you much less."

Extreme Makeover Home Edition
For 199 episodes, Ty Pennington and his design team have led a television phenomenon that has helped deserving families in all 50 states. This Friday, January 13, at 8/7c, the 200th episode and series finale of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition airs on ABC. To all who have ever cried or laughed watching an episode of this series over the last nine years, I hope you will set aside the two hours to watch what I believe is the most impressive feat of non-fiction television in a long while. From my experience, no factual television series has attempted to accomplish so much, by so many, for such a good cause, in one single episode.
This week, we're in Tucson, Arizona, building a home for the Bell family - Mike and Kathy with their two girls, Lizzie and Alicia.
Seven weeks after Lizzie was born, the doctors diagnosed her with Diamond Blackfan Anemia (DBA). DBA is a rare blood condition, present at birth, which is characterized by a failure of the bone marrow to produce red blood cells. Less than 700 kids in the world are stricken with this disease and Lizzie is one of them. The only thing that has kept Lizzie alive for the past 14 years of her life are ...

Everyday, Maria and her husband Jesus bring food, clothing, and supplies to thousands completely free of charge. Maria and Jesus both work multiple jobs to support their family and the foundation. Maria was even recently recognized as one of the "Top 10 CNN Heroes of 2008" for her selfless work. In 1996, when Maria began her charitable foundation, construction on the Ruiz home was ...

A city full of hope but struggling with drugs and crime, Camden, New Jersey, is where the Marrero family lives. Victor Marrero, a disabled father with a bad heart condition, and his five boys were featured on ABC's 20/20 with Diane Sawyer. They are a hardworking, loving family whose only hope for survival is each other. They have three beds, rats, holes and barely any electricity or heat. When the electricity doesn't work, they do their homework by candlelight. The oldest boy, Billy Jo, is the only one in his whole family who has graduated from high school not an easy task for a boy who had to go to school watching his back for gunfire and gangbangers, then take a bus out of town for his job at a fast-food restaurant where he was guaranteed a free meal before he got home after 10 pm to do his homework and start the routine all over again.This week I was in charge of two of the boys' rooms.

N.C. State has upgraded its nonconference football schedule again. The Wolfpack will play a home-and-home with West Virginia in 2018 and '19, the school announced Wednesday.
The Wolfpack, which beat the Mountaineers in the 2010 Champs Sports Bowl, will host WVU in 2018 and then travel to Morgantown, W.Va., in 2019.
The ACC wants its football teams to schedule at least one opponent from one of the "Power 5" conferences (ACC, SEC, Big 12, Pac-12 and Big Ten or Notre Dame), and the latest deal will give the Wolfpack one such opponent from 2016 through 2021. Earlier this summer, N.C. State announced a home-and-home deal with Mississippi State in 2020 and '21.
N.C. State's nonconference schedule was lackluster in 2013 and doesn't have any big names for the upcoming season or in 2015. The Wolfpack will host two transitional Bowl Subdivision teams (Old Dominion and Georgia Southern) this season and has to travel to ODU and South Alabama in 2015.
Notre Dame, which has a scheduling arrangement with the ACC, will fulfill N.C. State's "Power 5" requirement in 2016 and '17.
N.C. State has had trouble lining up and keeping dates with nonconference opponents. N.C. State and Duke discussed a "nonconference" series between the ACC teams but couldn't match up the dates.
The Wolfpack and Blue Devils played football every year but one from 1924 to 2003. Since the ACC expanded, the Wolfpack and Devils have met just three times and aren't scheduled to play again until 2020.
N.C. State also lost a high-profile series with LSU. The Tigers recently bought out a pair of games for $100,000. Both the Mississippi State and West Virginia contracts call for a $1 million buyout.
N.C. State still needs one more nonconference opponent, likely a Championship Subdivision foe, for the 2015 season.

Clady is too important to try to Franchise because if he refuses to sign it and holds out Denver is in no position to call his bluff.
If you hadn't noticed The Saints tried to franchise Brees. How did that work out for them? Oh yeah Brees got a $25 million a year contract that is how. If the Saints would have signed him last year to $20 million a year they would have saved a lot of money and a lot of bad PR.
Get Clady in make him the highest paid OT in the NFL and move on!!!! Because if they try to franchise him next year all he has to do is not sign the contract and then hold out and Denver will have to give him everything he wants or go into the season without him.
You do understand that if he does not sign the tender he does not go anywhere else and he will not make anything. They all sign eventually.

Karmic Koala (9.10) will be the eleventh release of our favorite free open source operating system, Ubuntu. With the first Alpha release already out the door, now is a good time to recap what we can do to help make Karmic a quality release.
It has been said that Ubuntu, and the wider FOSS ecosystem contributes in a gift economy. Countless hours of work by human beings across the globe has been gifted to you. All people, of any skill level, have a way to gift back to the ecosystem.
First Things First
* Get a Launchpad account if you don't already have one. You'll need it to report and track bugs, do translations in Rosetta, track support requests, and share the karma. Launchpad is an excellent central hub for almost all your contributions to Ubuntu. Register here.
* Familiarize yourself with how Ubuntu development works, at least roughly. This will help you contribute more efficiently, and prevent many uncalled for misunderstandings. An excellent place to start is the Ubuntu Development page in the wiki. Even a brief look at the main page will give you a rough idea of how the pieces fit together, and it will help if you go deeper. If the puzzle in your head has missing pieces, don't hesitate to ask questions on how things work. The Ubuntu Open Week is also a good opportunity to dive a bit deeper into Ubuntu.
* Review the Karmic Release Schedule, to plan ahead when and what you can contribute at this point in the development cycle.
* If you're confused about and/or having too many problems with the development version and don't exactly feel on top of things, don't run it for the time being. The Ubuntu development process is a tough ride, tougher than most distros, due to the cutting edge technology policy and the fixed development duration that's tightly packed with radical changes; if at any point you decide that you can't bear with it, drop it until a more stable phase, a milestone release, or entirely. Karmic will be a development version until October 2009, and is prone to major breakage at any point. Do not rely on it as your main operating system. If you decide to test it, be aware that you're risking being left without a working operating system, and data loss.
Reporting Bugs
Bug reporting is one of the most accessible, and yet most beneficial ways in which everyone can contribute. It's a good idea to start reporting bugs as early as possible, since towards the later stages, especially past BetaFreeze, focus will most likely shift towards critical bugs only. Whenever you encounter a reproducible malfunction, file a bug report. It's a good idea to start a thread in the development forum before submitting your report, to discuss it with others who may have experienced it, to make sure it's genuine. And it's very important that you do a search for the bug before submitting it; duplicate bugs make life more difficult for everyone. It's practical to keep the URL structure for the source package bug pages (where you can search for bugs in them) in mind:
Take a look at the Reporting Bugs page in the wiki to learn more about the procedure. The best practices wiki page also contains some useful information. Remember, how a bug is initially reported can have a huge effect on how it's handled and how quickly it gets fixed.
Finding the right package is important when filing a bug report. This makes sure that the right developers will see your bug report.
Apport is very handy in gathering technical information for bugs. One way you can use Apport is through the "ubuntu-bug" command. Simply type
Code:ubuntu-bug packagename
in a terminal, where "packagename" is the name of the (binary) package you want to report a bug in, and Apport will be triggered to collect basic relevant information (such as release and package versions) and attach it to your report. This makes life easier for everyone (bug reporters, triagers and developers) by sparing them the time and effort needed for establishing the information Apport can automatically collect through dialogue.
If you've reported a bug directly through Launchpad, and want Apport to collect the information afterwards, use apport-collect:
Code:apport-collect bugnumber
will trigger Apport to attach the required information to the bug report you specify with "bugnumber".
When you need to provide in-depth technical information that's beyond the scope of Apport, you'll find the debugging guides useful. The more information in a bug report, the easier it is for a bug triager or developer to get to the bottom for it.
Please keep in mind if you install unsupported software or tweak the configuration items of your install beyond a reasonably supportable state, do not report bugs. In such a case you should be mindful that you are doing your own support of your own configuration. People who want to contribute towards Ubuntu testing need to keep their configuration in a supportable state.
Triaging Bugs
If you have enough dedication to go a step beyond reporting, this is where you're needed.
Triaging bugs consists of the following:
- Responding to new bugs as they are filed
- Searching for duplicates in the bug tracking system
- Forwarding bug reports to their upstream authors, when applicable
- Cross-referencing bug reports from other distributions
- Classifying bug reports by package
- Prioritizing bugs
- Expiring old bug reports
Since new bug reports never stop coming, there are never enough bug triagers. It's an excellent way to help out that's much appreciated, and it will teach you a lot about how Ubuntu works. Anyone can help triage bugs, but you might also want to join the Bug Squad. After you've triaged bugs for a while, you can become a member of the Bug Control team, where you'll be allowed to change "Importance" and "Milestone" values of existing bugs.
When triaging, it's important to understand bug statuses. For instance, confirming a bug means moving the status from new to confirmed, not simply say its confirmed in a comment in the bug.
And regardless of whether you've worked on bugs before or not, don't miss the Hug Days!
Linking Upstream Bug Reports
Linking upstream bug reports to existing Ubuntu bug reports is an important way to help get bugs fixed.
This blog post by Jorge Castro explains why, and this wiki page shows you how.
Testing ISO Images
The ISO Testing Team tests daily ISO builds that lead to milestone CD images before the milestones are officially out, making sure they work as intended. To join the team and help out, follow the instuctions on the team's wiki page, and apply to join the team on Launchpad.
Submitting Ideas For New Features
Ubuntu Brainstorm is the best place for users to suggest new ideas and see what others are talking about.
At the start of each development period, a developer summit is held, where plans for the upcoming release are evaluated. The summit for Karmic will be held in Palau de Congressos de Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain between 25-29 May 2009.
Some ideas can be quickly implemented, while others can require a great deal of discussion or development work. Even a seemingly simple idea can be complex to implement if it affects other aspects of the system. Changes to the default look or behavior of the base system are always controversial and may cause extensive discussions.
A minor change can often be described in a bug report. The issue may actually be a bug (a fault in existing software). A simple change can be expressed as a 'wishlist' bug. For more complex changes we need to write a 'blueprint'. Blueprints (a.k.a. "specs") are documents suitable for developers to study and act upon. These should usually only be written by developers actively working on realizing the idea.
Take a look at the list of existing specs for Ubuntu first. If you can write concise, workable specs yourself, go ahead and submit them. If you can't, taking a look at some well written and accepted specs, or the spec template may help.
A lot of the ideas submitted so far either already have corresponding specs (some being worked on), or have already been proposed in another form by others, so please do a Brainstorm search, a spec search, and a forum search to see if what you're proposing has already been proposed by someone else, or is already being worked on.
Doing Translations
Ubuntu puts a special emphasis on the right and ability of all its users to comfortably use Free software in their native languages, so translations have their special place. If you're fluent with a second language beside English, your contribution to translations in Rosetta, Launchpad's translation module, will be valuable. With Rosetta's web interface, you can translate as much as you want, at any time, in any package.
Make sure you're familiar with the software you translate, for your translations to have as much sensitivity on wording context as possible. The freedom of multiple translators to non-linearly edit translations at will can bring problems with it as well, such as consistency; it's a good idea to keep in touch with your fellow translators in your language's translation team in Launchpad and/or the upstream contacts for the software you're translating to tackle such possible difficulties.
Bug Fixing, Code and Packaging Work
There are various ways and venues through which you can contribute code and packaging work to Ubuntu.
- You don't have to be an Ubuntu developer to fix bugs. You can contribute your fixes in the form of patches and branches, which can be reviewed and included in Ubuntu through the sponsorship process.
- Ubuntu developer Daniel Holbach has created a tool called Harvest to help find and fix the so-called "low hanging fruit", which is, bugs that should be easy to fix that might be lost among the thousands of bug reports in Launchpad. He explains it here. It's a great place for aspiring developers to start.
- You can package new software to be included in Ubuntu and Debian (again, no need to be an Ubuntu developer). We're now having regularly scheduled Packaging Training sessions. These are aiming to be short (~15-30 min) hands on sessions followed by questions and answers. Check out the wiki page and the blog for more information.
- You can draft, discuss and most importantly, implement feature specifications.
- Through sustained contribution, you can become an Ubuntu developer.
Doing Design
If you do graphics and user interface design, you can get involved in one of the Ubuntu-related community artwork projects.
Writing Documentation
If you can write good documentation, you can work with the Documentation Team, or by yourself on the community documentation.
The idea with 5-A-Day is simple - everyone in the Ubuntu community works to tend to at least five bugs every day, and to make it fun, we have produced some tools and rankings to make those 5 bugs count.
See the 5-A-Day wiki page for all the info!

Clegg provides coalition's first 'we got it wrong' moment
The coalition government was wrong to have cut capital spending as quickly as it did after the 2010 general election, Nick Clegg has admitted.
Labour's spending plans imposed a big reduction in big-ticket projects which the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats were wrong to press ahead with, the deputy prime minister explained.
Since then the coalition has repeatedly sought to "mobilise capital investment" in a series of Budgets and autumn statements unveiling significant spending commitments.
"I think we comforted ourselves at the time that it was actually no more than what [former chancellor] Alistair Darling spelt out anyway, so in a sense everybody was predicting a significant drop off in capital investment," Clegg told the House magazine.

"But I think we've all realised that you actually need, in order to foster a recovery, to try and mobilise as much public and private capital into infrastructure as possible.
"The economic evidence is overwhelming. It helps create jobs now - people go on to construction sites. It raises the productive capacity of the economy in the longer run."
The comment is the first major public admission of regret from a senior coalition minister that the government's approach has not maximised opportunities for growth.
His comments come as the UK faced the spectre of a triple-dip recession, with figures from the Office for National Statistics confirming the British economy shrank by 0.3% in the final quarter of 2012.
Health minister Anna Soubry, speaking on Question Time last night, said "there may be some merit" in Clegg's claim. She insisted there had been "phenomenal investment" in capital spending subsequently, however.
Labour seized on the comments to attack the coalition's future spending plans.
"The real question is what Nick Clegg's government is going to do about it," shadow chief secretary to the Treasury Rachel Reeves said.
"We have urged ministers to bring forward infrastructure investment and build thousands more homes, but they have refused to listen.
"Nick Clegg also claims he wants to put money into the pockets of people on middle and low incomes.
"So he should now admit that the VAT rise was a mistake and cancel the plan to cut tax credits for working families on modest incomes on the day millionaires get a tax cut."

Review this movie
Jul 5, 2012I found this movie based loosely on the book Family Linen. It is a good story remembering their departed friend as they carry out his last wish. During the travel to disperse the ashes, each remember different times with him and his wife/children. In this time there is discovery of flings and unintended regrets. Very heavy in dialog but a good story.
A ho-hum male weepie/road comedy that's worth watching mostly because of a once-in-a-lifetime gathering of England's greatest working-class actors.
Never quite shrugs off its literary manners. [18 & 25 Feb 2002, p. 200]
It is remarkably, unsentimentally dramatized by Fred Schepisi, courtesy of the pitch-perfect performances of its ensemble British cast.

Whether you appreciate his pop art as a colourful comment on celebrity culture and mass marketing, or just see a tin of condensed soup, there's no denying the retrospective packs a visual punch when you enter the MAC Belfast.
A collection of 126 lithograph and screen printed posters spanning Warhol's career greets you in a glut of colour and iconic imagery.
The pieces are a great example of his obsession with film, music and popular culture as well as a certain amount of self-obsession as Warhol used what was popular at the time to advertise his work and name.
Iconic imagery includes Perrier, Campbells, Marilyn Monroe, Mickey Mouse and the Beatles to name but a few that are given a colourful Warhol twist.
Also, in a more secluded corner is the imposing presence of Chairman Mao with a backdrop of the vivid and surreal 'Cow' wallpaper- which the curator tells me is made to measure the specific dimensions of the gallery space. This is probably to prevent cases of extra rolls ending up on eBay but he tells me that a small piece did end up in an auction for £1600.
In the ante-room, while video footage of Warhol plays, 'silver floatations' or pillows inflated with helium and air bob up and down. The pillows are added to every week the exhibition runs.
The fact that these pieces are 'made to order' productions demonstrates Warhol's technique of mass producing art - I can picture minions in a factory printing out reams of surreal wallpaper and firing out silver balloons while Warhol busies himself partying with celebrities.
His '1986' Camouflage work of military patterns painted in bright garish colours capture an essence of Warhol's work, a fascination with repetitive images and bold colour and yet the subject matter is something used to keep hidden, a nod to the artist, who despite becoming extremely famous was enigmatic and aloof.
His later work, which is displayed in the Large Gallery is particularly poignant after the colour and glamour of the first retrospective, it has none of the former vivid colour and glamour.
White canvases are brandished with black illustrations of a burger, a paratrooper boot and a mustard yellow dollar sign.
The style of the large, brash and minimal paintings harks back to newspaper illustrations and Warhol's beginnings in advertising.
They reflect a naked anxiety about American obsession with war, religion and the artist's fears of death in the wake of an attack by one of his entourage - all perfectly highlighted by the large white stark gallery space.
The MAC is a perfect venue for housing the Warhol exhibition, like an elaborate and stylish warehouse, one can picture the artist and his entourage at home here as in Warhol's original 'factory' workspace, churning out prints and throwing lavish parties.
If you are expecting to see the big pieces, the Monroes, the Campbell Soup tin, then you may be disappointed. But the assembled collection from the Royal Gallery Scotland, Tate London, as well as some from a private collection, is a great insight into the ego and glamour of Warhol and the construction of himself as an artist and celebrity.
This more humble collection is still worth around an estimated £30m, £10m of that represented by Warhol's 1978 self-portrait 'Strangulation'.
With around 5,000 people through the doors in its opening weekend, there is no doubt that Warhol still engages people's curiosity and imagination.
Whether it is 'true' or 'high' art is up to you.
And the MAC is giving pop art fans a fully 60s experience with a series of Warhol-inspired events, from multimedia shows featuring the artist's silent film portraits to 'Screen Tests' which feature famous faces including Dennis Hopper and Lou Reed.
And, for one night only, New York's most famous nightclub and one of Warhol's favourite hangouts comes to Belfast as Studio 54 is recreated with an original resident DJ - which is already sold out.
The exhibition is also a great taster for other upcoming events in the art world here, most notably the Turner Prize which comes to the City of Culture year in October. It's the first time the award has ever been held outside England.
The Andy Warhol exhibition runs until 28 April.

Kristen Stewart – Celebrates his 24th birthday with Robert Pattinson
There is no doubt this site is giving you all information in regard to right from entertainment, gossip, scandal, latest development, and changing scenario to this effect. This is all being done for keeping our reader well informed and conversant with the fact in a sense they should not have any problem in getting information what happening in the rest of the world. Our discussion today is based on the biography of Kristen Stewart. Before discussing further in detail to this effect, we like to update our reader, first so that they should not have any problem in discussing it; as to whom she is, what since she is famous, where does she live, and in what profession she belongs to.
Personal life
Kristen Stewart was born on April 9, 1990 at Los Angeles, California. It is believed, her father, John Stewart, who was also a television producer and stage manager who had worked and remained associated with Fox. It is believed, her mom, Jules Mann-Stewart, was doing a script supervisor initially from Maroochydore, Queensland, Australia, who had also taken part of directing a film. She had an elder brother, Cameron B. Stewart, and 2 adopted brothers, Taylor and Dana. Stewart had started attending school until the seventh grade and then it is believed she continued her education by correspondence until completing high school.
It is believed she is currently living in Los Angeles. Besides carrying out acting, she is now interested in attending college in the near future to acquire additional knowledge in the field of literature. She also believed an idea of building up their own writing prowess for becoming a writer. She loves what she is doing in her life, but it's not considered to be all what she wants to do. Some time back in 2008 she accepted an interview that she had some relationship with Michael, her co-star right from the 2004. His father was basically a television producer and theater organizer and manager.
Simple and beautiful Kristen
It is believed ever since meeting on the set of Twilight in 2008; it is said she was truthfully linked to co-star Robert Pattinson and for the last four years. However, she did not explicitly confirm affiliation, but paparazzi photographs and bystander accounts drove sturdy media and fan gossip and thought. In an interview, when she was asked why to be so hesitant talking about the relationship despite photographs of the couple online; she prevaricated by saying whenever she gets married or have babies, everyone is likely to know her kid's name and she has not been going to say it for ages. In 2012 she had formally acknowledged her relationship with Robert Pattinson on publishing photos of Kristen Stewart having an affair with her snow white and the Huntsman director. The moment the photos were released publicly, Stewart issued an apology to Robert Pattison with a view not to hurt anymore and embracement caused those who had been very close to her and the one who had affected with this information.

Ideal cottage for our July visit.
We spent over 2 weeks in this lovely, craftsman style cottage. Easy walk to town dock, town green and other venues in the village of Castine. Lots of windows which allowed the predominately southwest breeze to blow through the house and kept us very comfortable. Although the house has two bedrooms and a bath upstairs, we were very comfortable using the first floor bedroom and bath during our stay. A love seat and bench on the enclosed front porch with windows was a pleasant place to sit and read during the day.
Get away, away from tourist
My husband and I just returned to Minnesota from this wonderful get away in Castine Me. The homes location worked out wonderful for us. We wanted to visit the parks and enjoy small hikes. Castine has a beautiful 5 mile hiking trail, with a small establishment on the water front to enjoy a meal at a picnic table on the dock, along with the beach being a few miles down the road. If you are looking for a vacation away from all the other tourist, this is it. The home has everything you need to make you feel as though it was your own personal cabin away from home. We cooked a few lobster meals and the kitchen was stocked to do so. The linens are wonderful along with the up to date kitchen. This home is very clean!! I am not use to homes being only one car length away from the main street, so this did catch me off guard, but the road noise was very limited after dark and did not keep me awake once. Only the skunks walking around the yard woke me up. :) The bedroom up the spiral stair case just made it more charming. If you like the outdoors, take the trip to Baxter State Park, it is worth it.
Sleepy Hollow
"Ahhhhhhh, finally". Those were my first words- I am not kidding. We are two stressed Boston junior executives with two Tazmanian devils for children. We needed North and we needed it NOW! Downeast Maine had been on our bucket list forever!! Emilia was a delight, we got lucky someone had cancelled last minute and we were IN. The cottage was perfect: Funky, lots of character, comfy, and great sunlight...! It was situated on a hill and abutted a wilderness preserve- ideal for morning hikes or sunset strolls with chilled glass o wine!! Big yard bonus for the brats. The bedrooms were neat, clean, devoid of silly coastal posters. Bathrooms tidy, no frills. The kitchen was well prepared, dining table gorgeous rustic, great for large dinner party.. Wrap around screened in porch proved helpful on rainy day- likewise ping-pong table in garage. (Proving: There is a God.) Castine is a great town (we soon discovered) but it can be busy in July, Fortunately Emilia's cottage is on the quiet side of town, on a forgotten lane, really quiet! Except for the cacophony of sound that is the birdsong in the early morning. Sometimes too early. Yes, nature at last, yet minutes (walking) to in-town and all the services you'd ever want: groceries, fuel, beer, baked goods, (Bah's Bakehouse is a MUST every day), restaurants,(Stella's or Pentagoet Inn will impress) etc. And head the other direction for beaches and lighthouse! Run don't Walk, to book this place. It is a lovely, simple get away for those on a tight budget and stressed out from work it will be the best money spent if retreat and relax is in order. (BTW: we discovered besides being a gracious hostess Emilia is an accomplished singer songwriter too! Her husband a famous expedition sea- kayaker!!). .

Capital Metro bus for 15 years. In that time he's developed strong relationships with his passengers.
"They've brought me Christmas presents, [and] they've given me cards that say thank you for just being kind," Davis said.
But Davis said nowadays his life is full of strife. Capital Metro outsourced some routes to other companies, meaning some senior drivers like Davis have to split their shifts.
Because of this, Davis begins work early in the morning and then takes off a few hours and drives again in the afternoon.
"You want to work eight hours like everybody else and go home, be with your family, spend quality time, but you can't because you're obligated to Capital Metro from 10 to 12 hours a day," Davis said.
Amalgamated Transit Union 1091, which includes both bus drivers and mechanics.
State law doesn't allow unions to collectively bargain with public agencies, but to get federal money, Capital Metro has to work with the unions.
To solve the problem, Capital Metro created StarTran, a nonprofit that employs most of the transit agency's workers and negotiates with unions. In the case of ATU 1091, workers even have the right to strike.
And so, they did. The union waged war with StarTran in 2005 and again in 2007-2008 over contracts.
ATU 1091 president Jay Wyatt said both times StarTran brought in what's called union-avoidance attorneys.
"This is a person who is strictly about busting unions. That's what their roles are," Wyatt said.
Evidence of a bad relationship they've had for years.
StarTran decided enough was enough and the nonprofit decided to change. Officials hired Terry Garcia Crews as their general manager. Before that, StarTran never had one. Crews instituted an open-door policy and a number of procedural changes.
"Some of the bad behavior that has been allowed previously: storming in meetings and using derogatory language, is no longer accepted. There's a mutual respect," Crews said.
Crews represented change, but not the type bus drivers like William Davis had hoped for. "She don't care about none of us. She's only concerned about her own agenda, whatever that might be," Davis said.
Other solutions are beginning to surface.
"I will look into everything, from grievances to pending negotiations to potential negotiations," Martinez said.
The agency is also considering getting rid of StarTran altogether.
"That was one of the recommendations of the CAMPO peer review," Capital Metro Interim President/CEO Doug Allen said.
The review suggested many things, including:• Making employees public employees (which doesn't allow for strikes)• Bringing in a private company to manage the drivers • More training and professional development • Resolving the current impasse in collective bargaining
Either way, it's a big change for someone like William Davis, who fields a flurry of questions about service from the people he transports.
"The only thing I can do is tell them the truth. This is Capital Metro; I'm not doing this. I drive for Capital Metro. I want the best for ya'll. I want things to be better, but the only thing I do - I drive the bus. I do my job. I do what they tell me to do," Davis said.
