A real beauty of a goal for Real Salt Lake
May 4, 2013, 10:34 PM EDT
(Now updated with final result)
There is so much to like about Real Salt Lake's opener in Utah against Vancouver. It really was a beauty, going front to back in about 9 seconds.
Joao Plata's service from the right is put in the perfect spot, just out of goalkeeper Joe Cannon's reach, tucked neatly in behind Whitecaps' defender Andy O'Brien.
Young RSL midfielder Luis Gil is technical and brave with his finish, focused on placing his header just inside the post even though he knows Cannon is coming for the ball. Gil knows he's about to be on the business end of a goalkeeper's desperate lunge to get some piece of his body on the ball, but does his job anyway.
But the best element of the goal, the opener in RSL's 2-0 win over Vancouver, may be the part played by RSL goalkeeper Nick Rimando (pictured).
Rimando does what too many players fail to, getting his head up and taking a quick look prior to arranging his goal kick (or a throw-in, or a free kick, etc.). Better to take a quick peak, and then set up for a big boot upfield if there's nothing to spring quickly.
In this case, Rimando sees something he likes. And since Real Salt Lake's No. 1 is perhaps the league's best netminder with his feet, he's able to supply Plata with a ball past the midfield stripe in just the right spot to start the important opener.
Goal of the Week? It's got to be in the running. Here 'tis:

Alexander Cockburn was without question one of the most influential journalists of his generation, whose writing stems from the best tradition of Mark Twain, H.L. Menchken and Tom Paine. Colossal Wreck, his final work, finished shortly before his death in July 2012, exemplifies the prodigious literary brio that made Cockburn's name.
Whether ruthlessly exposing Beltway hypocrisy, pricking the pomposity of those in power, or tirelessly defending the rights of the oppressed, Cockburn never pulled his punches and always landed a blow where it mattered. In this panoramic work, covering nearly two decades of American culture and politics, he explores subjects as varied as the sex life of Bill Clinton and the best way to cook wild turkey. He stands up for the rights of prisoners on death row and exposes the chicanery of the media and the duplicity of the political elite. As he pursues a serpentine path through the nation, he charts the fortunes of friends, famous relatives, and sworn enemies alike to hilarious effect.
This is a thrilling trip through the reefs and shoals of politics and everyday life. Combining a passion for the places, the food and the people he encountered on dozens of cross-country journeys, Cockburn reports back over seventeen years of tumultuous change among what he affectionately called the "thousand landscapes" of the United States.
Alexander Cockburn (1941–2012) was the coeditor of CounterPunch and the author of a number of titles, including Corruptions of Empire, The Golden Age Is in Us, Washington Babylon (with Ken Silverstein), and Imperial Crusades. One of three brothers, all journalists, he was the son of the journalist and author Claud Cockburn. Born in Ireland and educated in Scotland and England, he moved to America in 1972, soon establishing himself as a radical reporter and commentator, writing for the Village Voice, the New York Review of Books, Esquire and Harpers. He also wrote regular columns for the Nation, Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Times, New Statesman, and his influential newsletter CounterPunch. In 1991 he settled in Petrolia, a rural hamlet in Humboldt County, Northern California, where he remained until his death.

Is Boko Haram really invincible?
From the negligible rag-tag hit-and-run guerrilla-typesectarian ruffians of a few years ago, the radical Islamic sect, Jama'atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda' Awati Wal-Jihad, also known as Boko Haram, has metamorphosed into a hardened and ferocious fighting machine that can now willingly initiate full-scape command-structured military engagements with the Nigerian Statein relative ease and with uncanny bravado… [Read More…]
The tragedy of African opposition politics
The nation's political arena has recently witnessed a flurry of defections from one party to the other by politicians whose perception of power is nothing more than buccaneering, the indiscriminate sharing of spoils of office by whatever means possible.

Gains, losses of the national conference
The National Conference has come and gone. To some, it was an unqualified success; to many others, it was an unmitigated waste of valuable time and scarce resources.

Nigeria's political Ebola
It is quite unfortunate that a constitutional process as hallowed as the impeachment of public office holdersfor proven cases of gross misconducthas been so abused and trivialised by the nation's political class that it is now almost synonymous withlegislative rascality and partisan intolerance, thereby draining the time-honouredremedial mechanism of all its utility. Historically, it was… [Read More…]
Ultimatum offrustration mixed with malice

Non-indigenes registration: Matters arising
There was a nation-wide sigh of relief following the Council of State's declaration last week that it is improper for some of the states of the federation to have embarked on the registration and, in some bizarre cases, forceful re-location or internal deportation of "non-indigenes." The declaration was itself an institutional endorsement of a decision… [Read More…]

War, by whatever means it is prosecuted, is extremely costly both in human lives and material resources.

Maui - Vacation LOTS of pictures
Hey peeps! Aloha! Here are some pictures of our vacation to beautiful Maui. Just didn't want to come back! The myriad of tropical plants, palms, flowers, gorgeous geography, warm ocean (81 degree water), warm rains, mugginess, intense tropical sun (the sun was directly at 90 degrees over the sky while we were there)...plus the fact that it reminds me of my home country (Panama) makes me want to stay every time we go. We stayed in Ka'anapali, but the pictures are from pretty much all over the island. We went to this AMAZING botanical garden called "Garden of Eden" on the windward side (lots of pics) - highly recommended...Anyway, there are lots of cool pics for you guys to enjoy..so ENJOY! :)
Sunsets in Ka'anapali:

On a hike:
That is soooooo pretty! I want to go to hawaii soo bad. Its my number one place I want to visit. Did you bring back anything? And if you dont mind me asking,was the trip real expensive?
It looks soo great there. I really want to see a real mature coconut palm like those in the pics.
It looked like a fun trip.:)
Wow, beautiful pics! I went last year and I want to go back more than anything! Every pic I took was good enough for a post card (and it has nothing to do with my picture taking, but everything to do with the beauty everywhere in Hawaii!) Definitely the most beautiful state for tropicals. The water is clear and beautiful, the mountains are stunning and unreal, and every plant does amazing there! The coconuts do so well that the hotels have a hard time keeping up with pruning the coconuts off (its a law in the United States to have all coconuts cut off of coconut palms when in public places (since coconuts are deadly if they fall on someone's head). However, out in the towns, you can see some beautiful coconuts growing on the coconut trees in people's yards (as well as bananas, plumerias, papayas, mangos, and tons of others!).
Thanks for sharing! Great photos. I too would love to go there some day. I think I would want to live at some elevation though. The only thing I would say about HI is that there are almost too MANY Coconut palms. I like a little variety. Still, stunning place for sure. That Plumeria (the huge one over the roof of that building) is, well, HUGE!!!! Stunning! I think the one in the 8th photo up from the bottom is also a dwarf plumeria. I have one of those as well and it has grown like gang busters this summer. They are slower growers, but they are just as beautiful! Thanks again for the great pics!
Oh, btw. Hunter_M You can go to south Florida (Tampa on south on the west, and Palm Beach on south on the east (i think) and see coconut palms like that. I remember my trip to Miami well, and they are everywhere.
What beautiful pictures!!! You captured the true beauty of the Island and the vivid stunning colors!!
Great job on the Photos!!
Sounds like you had a great time in Maui!!!
I love those sunsets there...
Reninds me of the Zac Brown song..."Life is good today.."
Hello Ken!!! I ve been thinking of you and haven't seen you post lately...We need to catch up!!! Still in Old A?
Take care everyone..

How to grow big pumkins?
hagendeanApril 27, 2007
My kids want to try to grow some big pumkins this year. We put about 2 truckloads of cmpost into the garden where the pumkins will be planted. Can someone tell me what to add to the soil to make the pumkins grow large. If possible be specfic on what to add and when. Thanks for any help.
I haven't done this. I just grow squash and pumpkins for eating. But here's a link to a thread in the Growing Giant Vegetables forum. Perhaps you'll get the information you need there. Sounds like you got off to a good start : )

The full line-up of entertainment hitting the streets of Bradford city centre this summer has been revealed.
A top Bradford Council official used a copy of the Telegraph & Argus to show a powerful Parliamentary committee how the city is united in bringing regeneration to the district.
If Bradford's bid to become a City of Enterprise succeeds it will build on an industrial past to unlock a technological future.
Bradford city centre's bid for Enterprise Zone status has been given cross-party support from the biggest political groups on Bradford Council.
Turning the city centre into an 'Enterprise Zone' would breath new life into a planned £1 billion pipeline of investment in the city centre, it was claimed today.
Business chiefs have submitted a scaled-down £17 million bid to create up to 2,000 jobs in Bradford.
Flamenco dancers, folk singers and a magician will be among the street artists descending on Bradford city centre for a buskers festival.
A professor at the University of Bradford with a track record for sharing research with businesses in the region has backed the city's bid to become an enterprise zone.
City centre retailers are putting their weight behind a bid to turn the area into an enterprise zone.
Business leaders in Bradford have thrown their support behind the city's bid for enterprise zone status.
THEY hail from different backgrounds and cultures. Yet they are united by their enthusiasm to learn about food.

Dave, I wouldn't say "young" when you look at the pic below. Being stuck in the jungle away from the comforts of home like make-up would be a test for anyone.
2015-03-25 05:13:48
Grant, I was just looking at her Wikipedia page and pics. It's amazing how young she still looks.
2015-03-25 03:44:44
Bill, not just American boys. I'm sure lots of Aussies shared your fantasy, hence she was very popular on the celebrity show. The thing I liked about her was she has aged well without resorting to botox, fillers or face lifts. One could tell she was a mature woman whose face reflected she had a story to tell.
2015-03-24 15:26:36
Hey, Maureen McC was my dream girl when I was a kid! Perhaps she was for every other American boy as well. I've heard about some of her heavy life experiences.
2015-03-22 03:28:56
Bill, I'm sorry I've impugned the reputation of these fine, outstanding people who selfless commitment to improve the lot of the general population is beyond reproach. I'm sure they pay their way wherever they go and contribute most of the allowances they receive to the needy. On less controversial matters, for all the Brady Bunch fans out there, down here we've just finished an Australian series of I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here with Maureen McC as one of the stars. She appeared to be an interesting lady with some heavy life experiences.
2015-03-20 10:17:27
Serfs like us have no need for such information, right Grant?!
2015-03-18 15:11:27
Thanks, Bill. There weren't many who weren't and we sanctify and santitize their crimes with this fawning and adulation of their line. I notice your nation is hosting Chuck and Camilla at the moment. At least your people can look them in the eye when you met them. None of this bowing and scraping of the colonies. I've often wondered who pays for their tours of foreign lands - them or the host country's gullible taxpayers?
2015-03-18 09:08:44
Alexander was a bloodthirsty king!
2015-03-17 15:06:04
Bill, you've stumped me! I can't work out the cryptic nature of your comment?
2015-03-16 20:20:55
Right! Can you say Alexander the Great?!
2015-03-14 07:00:26
Bill, your insert below sums up my feelings! Beautifully said. In reality, the kings of long ago got to wear their king hat because they were more ruthless, bloodthirsty and cunning than their competition. I wouldn't mind if the present had proved themselves but this current system based on a genetic lottery is a farce. When you said you hope it won't take hold in the states, I've noticed some of your countrymen and women tend to fall over themselves in their desire to be seen with visiting "royals".
2015-03-13 23:18:06
I hope so for your sake, Grant! I know I wouldn't like any of that hokey pokey nonsense going on here in the states!
Do you remember Monty Python's Holy Grail? At the beginning, there were a couple of peasants wallowing in the mud. "King" Arthur came by claiming himself as King of the Britons. The dialogue went just like this:
King Arthur: I am your king.
Peasant Woman: Well, I didn't vote for you.
King Arthur: You don't vote for kings.
Peasant Woman: Well, how'd you become king, then?
[Angelic music plays... ]
King Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I am your king.
Dennis the Peasant: Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.
Arthur: Be quiet!
Dennis the Peasant: You can't expect to wield supreme power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!
Arthur: Shut up
Dennis the Peasant: I mean, if I went around saying I was an emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!
Arthur: [grabs Dennis] Shut up! Will you shut up?!
Dennis: Ah, now we see the violence inherent in the system!
Arthur: [shakes Dennis] Shut up!
Dennis: Oh! Come and see the violence inherent in the system! Help, help, I'm being repressed!
Arthur: Bloody Peasant!
Dennis: Ooh, what a giveaway!
Hilarious! I couldn't have said it better myself!
2015-03-12 15:07:17
They're welcome to her! I remind myself nothing lasts forever. I'm pretty sure I'll live long enough to see my compatriots wake up and declare us a republic.
2015-03-11 22:30:45
Great day in the morning! That would be an upset! Well, they still have the queen. Knew you'd love that. Ha ha ha!!!
2015-03-10 15:07:45
Speaking of the Poms, they are currently in mourning. The Cricket World Cup is being played in New Zealand and Australia and the poor old Poms have been eliminated from the competition after having been beaten by Bangladesh. The equivalent would be England beating Canada in hockey! If you know anyone from England, treat them with care.
2015-03-08 03:50:14
I could do a quiz on tea? cricket? bad cooking? They might pull in a few more Brits! Now we call them Poms. What's the US version?
2015-03-06 09:00:28
Grant, thanks very much for the quiz on the Union Jack! We've been trying to add more content that will attract European visitors. Maybe this one will get linked inbound somewhere and drive some much-needed Brit traffic!
2015-03-06 08:58:38
Greenland isn't as bad as Boston!
According to local forecasters, today is the last day of the winter season with a high temperature of below freezing. Spring is here! :-)
2015-03-04 05:41:56
Dave, is that a snow storm or just your average run-of-the-mill rain storm? I might have to do a quiz on Friedrich Nietzsche, the man who said "That which doesn't destroy me, strengthens me." I'm sure you tough-living Michiganites will do well!
2015-03-02 21:10:59
We are not as bad as Boston this year but we're expecting a storm tomorrow
2015-03-02 04:56:29
Dave, I've been viewing scenes of Boston where I visited in September seven years ago and can't believe the areas I walked are now covered in 2 metres of snow. If Boston is like that I fear for you further inland. After our very hot summer, I'm looking forward to cooler weather, although our winter temperatures will probably be similar to your summer ones.
2015-03-01 21:23:35
Wow what a contrast from here grant. There are ice cycles on my bird feeder that haven't melted I 4 weeks
2015-03-01 04:08:56
Dave, we've just experienced our hottest March 1 in eleven years. 37 C (98 F) in some parts of the state. Still humid and steamy. A relieving southerly change is cooling things as I type.
2015-02-27 22:27:22
Grant, what is the weather currently like there?
2015-02-27 13:19:23
I don't think so, Grant, although I've never tried it here. Too cold to go outside and try it. ha ha!
2015-02-27 05:33:33
Bill, I saw a video today of a policeman in Maine throwing a glass of water into the air. The water froze before it hit the ground. Amazing!! Are these the type of temperatures you're receiving?
2015-02-25 19:41:05
Celebration for sure! :-)
2015-02-24 02:03:29
Is that a cause for celebration or consternation?!
2015-02-23 09:16:33
Yes. BTW, I hear that it's going to be above freezing here this weekend!
2015-02-22 04:29:13
Bill, so does that mean the ice in the picture is a crust for the water rushing underneath it?

I love this palette! I have the orignal packaging (so points off for being bulky) and I HATE the plastic sheet with names on it. The smell is amazing and I've had it for months now and it still smells brand new. I like the majority of the shades, there are a couple that are little difficult to build up. But the neutrals are so shimmery and blend easy, its those pesky purples and that pink that put up a fuss. It's nothing terrible, just a bit of work to get them to look the way I want. The staying power on these shadows though is awseome. I use a primer for all shadows because I have oily lids (UD primer potion) and I've had around 15 hours of wear with no creasing or smudging. The only reason I wouldn't repurchase is because when I pan this palette who knows what will be on the market (and maybe I'll be sick of it in a year). I don't know if I could commit to buying it again. It's good, don't get me wrong, but palettes take a long time to use up completely and I'll probably be slightly bored with it by then. If not, I'll come back and change this review!

OMG I CANNOT DESCRIBE MY LOVE FOR THIS PALETTE! It is awesome in soo many ways so I'm just going to tell the CONS: the packaging is not very "safe", it does not close shut. And there are some shades like Gilded Ganache, Black Forest Truffle and Cherry Cordial, they have a chalky gritty texture, and this is literally it. Besides theese, the pigmentation and the colours are amaaazinggg, this palette is absolutely gorgeous and if you have the chance to get your hands on this beauty, you must. XX

I was really surprised by this palette and how much I love it. My first palette was the urban decay naked 1 and that had great pigmentation too. I didn't expect this palette to have the same pigmentation and quality as UD naked. I have to say tho that I think i prefer the color selection here and I can create all matte eye looks or a mix of shimmer and matte. I also like the highlight shades better :). I will definitely repurchase

Let's do this the quick and concise way . The things I like about this palette are; it has a good range of neutrals with a pop of colour thrown in here and there, the shadows last a decent amount of time, they are smooth and buttery making application easy and enjoyable . The tin is cute and the smell of the shadows is appealing to me anyway( being a chocoholic)as they smell delicious! Things I do not like; the silly plastic sheet with the names of the shadows on(which I believe has been ditched in the semi sweet palette), one or two of the shadows seem powdery and a bit disappointing, mirror is ok but not huge . A silly point but it does take me longer to do my eye make up with these shadows as I keep stopping to sniff them ! I think this is a great palette, good value for money with numerous possibilities for different looks and is becoming a real favourite of mine.

So I swore to myself that I would not buy into the hype over this one as I have more than enough neutral palettes to get by on for the next forty years or so....these famous last words came back to bite me - as they always do. I managed to hold out to the end of 2014 for this but have not looked back ever since as it's been getting so much love and I really am so happy to have it.
For me Too faced shadow palettes can be hit or miss, generally I love the creamy soft shadows but have had about 4 palettes that have just been let downs for me. However I love this palette as its so versatile and fits in with every other palette I own - it can be a daily work horse.
For reference my skin is fairly light, I have blonde hair and green eyes and try to steer away from dark eye shadows as I find them "too much" on me and tend to go for a light / medium neutral look and only usually use darker shadows as liners. I have and find I can use most shades in this palette apart from Triple Fudge that I don't like and Gilded Ganache as any olive on me just turns muddy and unflattering looking and this one is no exception.
Strawberry Bon Bon is a pretty pale pink but not very pigmented so needs quite a few layers to get some colour showing - at least its not chalky. My matte Semi-Sweet is a bit dry and hard to pick up - but makes a good liner. I love Salted Caramel as it's so different being an orangey-brown, I generally use this as a crease shade and if its looking too orange for the look I'm going for it can be toned down slightly with a light application of Milk Chocolate brushed and blended lightly over the top. My two absolutely favourite standout shades are Marzipan a light peachy-brown and Cream Brulee a soft flattering gold - both are go to's as an all over lid colour.
My favourite two every day go to looks from this palette are:
Lid to Brow Bone: White Chocolate / White Chocolate
Browbone Highlight: Champagne Truffle / Champagne truffle
Crease Shade: Salted Caramel / Milk Chocolate
Lid Shade: Marzipan / Creme Brulee
Inner Corner: Champagne Truffle / Champagne Truffle
Outer "V": Haute Chocolate / Hazlenut
Lower Lashline: Marzipan / Creme Brulee
Upper Lashline: Amaretto or / Semi-Sweet
Black Forest Truffle
While I do like the smell of chocolate, it was not the reason I purchased this palette, but Too Faced were not silly and I think this was a great little marketing ploy to get people interested in something new. The shadows are a pretty decent size especially the matte and shimmer highlighter shades at 2.8grams each. I would see myself re-purchasing this in the unlikely chance that I will complete this palette...

Am I the only person to really be let down by this palette? Number one, it's extremely annoying that the names of the shadows are not written inside the palette, but on a little plastic insert that you throw away or if you keep it, it's totally in the way. The pigment just doesn't come out the color I'm expecting. They are very smooth, great smelling shadows, but I'm much happier with Any of the Urban Decay Naked pallettes. It's difficult to put my finger on, ( which I know doesnt help much in a review) but I genuinely wish I could return it. Very unhappy with it & wish I had gone with Lorac. Ive tried a ton of chocolate bar tutorials & I'm just not feeling it.

Okay so we've allllll heaard about the Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette. I was one of the slow people to get this product but boy was it worth the wait! This palette is so amazing!! It is so pigmented, the colours are incredible! It even smells like chocolate. Enough said! haha. This is a palette you must have in your collection girls! I bought mine from Mecca Maxima for $65 but I know you can get it off the Too Faced website for around $45, which is even better! I had a gift card which is why I paid so much. There are 16 amazing colours to choose from all named after a chocolate or some sort of sweet. My favourites would have to be White Chocolate, Marzipan, Amaretto and Black Forest Truffle. This palette can be an everyday use or even for just special occasions. You can create so many looks with this palette and if you don't now where to start it comes with a little booklet to get you started with some beautiful looks.

I really like this palette. It's the first palette I actually used. I love the colors. They blend very well, and look phenomenal. The best thing about this palette is the fact the colors are pigmented for dark skin, and minimal fallout! The chocolate smell doesn't hurt either.

Favorite eyeshadow palette hands down. The colors cater more to natural colors but can easily go for a bold, smokey look! The eyeshadow themselves are pigmented and have a great lasting color power while still easy to blend. There is some fall out if you have a heavy hand when applying it though. This eyeshadow palette does have the a chocolate fragrance that you can smell when you open it but honestly you can't smell it after applying it to your eyes. plus I LOVE chocolate so if anything I want the smell! it's a nice scent and isn't over powering to the nose (: It is at pretty high price but very decent for what it is at $49 (bought it at Ulta). I don't run through my eyeshadow palettes fast and the pans for the eyeshadows are pretty big so I'm sure this will definitely last me for a long while!

10 Jan 2013 Accountancy Age
By Richard Crump
THE FINANCE DIRECTOR of IRN-Bru manufacturer AG Barr, which is merging with larger rival Britvic, is to join Goals Soccer Centres as a non-executive director.
Alex Short has been appointed to the board of the five-a-side football centre operator with immediate effect, the company said.
Short's appointment comes as the merger between AG Barr and Britvic moved a step closer after shareholders from both companies voted in support of the deal to create Barr Britvic Soft Drinks.
Short's previous roles include group finance director of William Grant & Sons Holdings, a management consultant with Coopers & Lybrand and various management positions within Coca Cola Schweppes Beverages.
Sir Rodney Walker, chairman of Goals Soccer Centres, said Short has "an impeccable reputation and has been part of a team that has seen AG Barr double in size during his tenure".
In September last year, the company received a boost after HMRC lost a tribunal relating to the five-a-side football industry's treatment of VAT.
Goals Soccer Centres had successfully appealed against an earlier ruling that VAT was standard-rated for pitch block bookings.
The problem stemmed from an HMRC business brief in February 2011 that indicated all income relating to commercially operated sports leagues should be standard-rated.

The Most Important Thing To Do After You've Installed Ubuntu 12.10
Soon, very soon, Ubuntu 12.10 will be upon us. A flurry of articles will be written on how to tweak 12.10 by the usual authors on large techie-websites that are sponsored by companies that have no love for this thing. Others will find nits to pick with the best free OS in the world and will complain that Ubuntu is losing its chicken. Horses will run in random directions, chased by 114m4's. There will be outbreaks of goats with halitosis. Uni will be served. Yawn.
Here's the real story. The story you won't see published, the most important one:
When you encounter Ubuntu, you are not encountering just a product. You are encountering a philosophy, a project, a platform, and really good people. I've met hundreds of them. They are genuine.
You see, Ubuntu is not just software. It's people working together unselfishly to make something the world has never had. There is no analog for this in the proprietary software world. Therefore it remains largely a societal blind spot, and it is our bug to fix.
With that said, the only thing you need to do after installing Ubuntu is to install community. Find the people in your town that love it and want it to succeed. Find others that you can talk to face-to-face to share tips, tricks, and your unique knowledge of the amazing things it can do.
Get together. Have fun. Ignore the interwebs. The real action is right where you live.
"We are making Ubuntu. Not just software!"
Do you write for a large tech site? I dare you to write about what Ubuntu really is.
Ubuntu +1 Release Name Leaked
Soon, very soon, Mark 'sabdfl' Shuttleworth will tell us the development name of the next Ubuntu release (R-cycle) that will become 13.04.
Major scoop! My spies on the ground have recently discovered what that name is. Are you ready for it?
13.04: "Randall Ross" - An unconventional animal that uses unconventional means to take Ubuntu in new directions.
There it is! What an honour :P
Want to help choose a better name? Submit your entry!
Update (10/18/2012): Raring Ringtail it is! Oh well :P http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1195
Yes, I'm coining the term Amazônicagate.
Have you noticed that the journalists that are frothing/blathering about the inclusion of elements of a "Large Rainforest in Seattle" in the Dash all have something in common?
They are not Ubuntu contributors, nor are they members of their local Ubuntu community, nor are they likely even Ubuntu "users" (as much as I hate that term.)
So, in other words, they have already made a conscious decision to not support the project and to not get involved. It should be no surprise that they are eager to express displeasure about recent decisions. It should be of even lesser surprise that they so readily dredge up random vitriolic commentary from forums, blog comments, and other random internet places.
I could name names. But I'll be nice.
The astute reader might want to use a search engine and do some investigative research on who these people are, what their journalistic credentials are (not), and which sites they write for, and who advertises on those websites.
I encourage everyone reading this article to do something tangible. Do the research. Then reach out to these people. Some of them are in your city. Educate them. Or simply tell them that if they want to help change the world for the better they can get involved in the project in a positive way.
And, if all that seems like a bit too much work: Ignore them.
Finally, if you publish newsletters or other popular Ubuntu news sites, perhaps you can ask yourself "Will regurgitating shoddy journalism for all to see help the project? Will it motivate contributors?" Why not find some useful topics to write about?
The world needs more Ubuntu, not more FUD, or armchair quarterbacks, or click-throughs.
Want to help? Show your support for Ubuntu. Join an Ubuntu local community. Get involved in a positive way.

Volle Kontrolle Erlangen! Unity Lenses and Scopes, in German!
Fast Edi! He's at it again. The one-man-translation-magician has taken another of our Unity guides and worked his magic.
Please thank "Fast Edi" Hoffman from Offenburg for his hard work and his dedication to spreading Ubuntu and Unity.
Something cool: Edi is a teacher. He told me that he uses the Unity Orientation Guide in his course for those new to Ubuntu and the world of free software.
Imagine if every teacher out there had Edi's enthusiasm and energy. Spreading the idea of Ubuntu to a new generation. That just might help tilt the earth's axis a little more. I've watched a whole generation of kids (including my own) grow up trapped with proprietary tools cleverly placed in schools. Luckily, we now have the means to reverse that damage.
Are you a teacher? Do you know a teacher? Why not grab a Unity guide (or three) and spread the word. Are you a member of an Ubuntu group in your town/city? Why not print our guides and host a "Getting to know Ubuntu" night at your local library or community centre?
The world needs more Ubuntu.
Outstanding work Fast Edi! Thank you for a job well done! :)
Want to help? Show your support for Ubuntu. More translations needed and welcome! Are you fluent in Chinese? French? Spanish? Portuguese? We need you!
It's Really Dead. Get Over It.
There's been some chatter on the interwebs, especially on a popular Ubuntu software-only news site, started evidently by that guy that wants Mono everywhere saying something to the effect that the "Linux Desktop is Dead".
He's right. It's dead. Put it in a coffin. Fill it with lead. Nail it shut. Head over to Marianas Trench (1). Drop it to the bottom of the sea. Fill the trench with rock.
The sooner we all end kernel fixation, the sooner Ubuntu will cross the chasm. Don't be that guy living in the 90's and lamenting about kernels on the desktop. Kernels don't live on desktops. Neither do Colonels.
Echoing Michael Hall's post (with updated terminology):
As long as there is a demand for a "Libre Desktop" OS, there will be people creating it. And right now, those people are amassing around the project that is called Ubuntu, creating something that millions and millions of people enjoy every day.
Now, back to building Ubuntu!
(1) Marianas Trench is the deepest part of the world's oceans. It is also a a Canadian pop rock band from Vancouver, British Columbia.

Diaspora* Is Now Open, and Community Driven!
Remember when the internet was free? Hint: Parts of it still are.
Yesterday, the project's founder announced that Diaspora* is now a community project and is wide open for everyone. No invites necessary. Just sign up!
In the words of Daniel Grippi:
"Today, the network has grown into thousands of people using our software in hundreds of installations across the web. There are hundreds of pods that have been created by community members, and it has become one of the biggest Github projects to date. It has been translated to almost fifty languages, with hundreds of developers worldwide contributing back to the project."
"Diaspora has grown into something more than just a project four guys started in their office at school. It is bigger than any one of us, the money we raised, or the code we have written. It has developed into something that people all over the world care about and are inspired by."
"Today, we are giving control of Diaspora to the community."
"As a Free Software social project, we have an obligation to take this project further, for the good of the community that revolves around it."
"This is a new opportunity for Diaspora to grow further than ever before. We can't wait to see what we can do together."
Once you join, be sure to follow #ubuntu.
And how about this for an idea?
I think Wayne's onto something. With all the nifty web integration that will be in 12.10 we have a golden opportunity to lead by example. The world's most popular freedom-centric OS meets the world's most popular freedom-centric social network. Anyone have the skills to make this happen?
See you there.
Apologies in advance if you hold Facebook stock. ;)
Achieve Unity in German! Vereinfache Dein Leben.
What do you get when you remix UVLC's Unity Orientation Guide with an amazing dose of enthusiasm and multilingual talent? A strong dose of pure amazing!
After the release of our guides, I was fortunate to receive a note from "Fast Edi" Hoffman from Offenburg asking if a German version would be welcomed. Wow. Yes! Yes!!
Here's the result:
In his own words:
"Als Freier Software Aktivist bin ich vor kurzem über die praktischen "Guides" der Vancouver Ubuntu-Community gestolpert.
Da ich mit meiner Community versuche, Linux und Freie Software weiter zu verbreiten, sind solche Einsteiger-Leitfäden ideal für Menschen, die bisher nur proprietäre Betriebssysteme verwendet haben. Und da ich kein Entwickler oder "Hacker" bin, möchte ich durch die Übersetzung der Gemeinschaft etwas zurückgeben.
Ausserdem kann ich diese sehr gut geschriebenen Werke in meinen Kursen als Schulungsunterlagen verwenden. Und als Beispiel für die grandiosen Wirkungsweisen Freier Lizenzen und der internationalen Zusammenarbeit der Freunde Freier Software."
Please join me in thanking "Fast Edi" for taking Ubuntu and Unity to an even larger audience, to our German friends on the other side of the chasm.
Outstanding work Fast Edi! Thank you for a job well done! :)

Word to the wise though: Always check the "Ubuntu Certified" and "Ubuntu Friendly" lists before taking that first drink. Don't get hit with your first IUI (Installing Under the Influence).

Achieve Unity in Three Easy Guides
Unity. Millions of us use it and love it. It's innovative and beautiful. It's easy.
So if Unity is so easy then why write (or in my case, conceive and edit) a guide (or three) for it? Simple. Not everyone in the world understands Unity. Not everyone in the world knows that it's customizable and flexible. Not everyone in the world feels comfortable with a modern desktop environment. And, many fail to realize that Unity (and Ubuntu) is not just software. This is a bug that our guides are designed to help fix.
Do you know someone who has never used Ubuntu? Or, do you know someone that has just begun their Ubuntu adventure? Or, do you know someone that uses Unity but begrudges its perceived lack of customizability? These guides are for them.
Do you want to help Ubuntu cross the chasm? Please print these guides and give them to people that you care about. Print them and bring them to your next Ubuntu gathering. Talk about them. Or, just give them to a random person you meet on the street.
Amplify Unity!
False Premises and Nasty Break-ups
Over the weekend, I received an anonymous message (in the sense that I don't know and have never met this person nor do I have his/her return address):
"I just installed Ubuntu a few weeks back and it's been okay up until now, which is why I joined {Ubuntu Vancouver}. Seemed like a pretty straight forward OS.
As of today, dealing with Ubuntu has become a drag. It's not just about learning a new system. It's things like a screen, keyboard, and mouse freeze because I opened two pages instead of one, it's fixes, and no way is there and easy answer through help forums.
I wanted to like Ubuntu, but it's just not user-friendly. Too much time spent on tech fixes.
Suppose you have a problem with your girlfriend. I tell you to see things differently. Oh wait, have you read Spinoza? How about family systems theory? Attachment theory? There's also a fascinating study that was done at SFU years ago to do with rat behaviour that may indirectly be related to your issues....
I'm sorry, what? You don't enjoy studying philosophy, sociology, and psychology? Oh. Well there's another way.
Pay me and I'll tell you how to make your relationship with her better.
Ubuntu needs to be easy for non-geeks or it will never be popular."
Looks like a false premise to me, or multiple premises.
Wikipedia: "A false premise is an incorrect proposition that forms the basis of a logical syllogism. Since the premise (proposition, or assumption) is not correct, the conclusion drawn may be in error. However, the logical validity of an argument is a function of its internal consistency, not the truth value of its premises."
Can you spot the false premise(s) in this note? Better still, can you write a pre-emptive "Introduction to Ubuntu" elevator pitch that would pre-empt this type of break-up message?

HAVE: Annual Spring Plant Swap
ItÂs time, again, for our annual plant trading frenzy!
Here are the basics,
((If anyone needs more info, just email me at firstname.lastname@example.com))
(For those who have not been here before, it's about 1/2 way between Troy NY and the VT border, when traveling Rt. 7)
209 Brundige Road, Valley Falls
DATE- May 10 (Sat. Before MotherÂs Day).
Festivities to be held on Saturday morning at 10 AM. (You may begin arriving at 9:30 AM to unload and have coffee/tour gardens/etc.)
All are welcome to come join the kick-off of the gardening season. Yes. Kids too! Swing set & sand box available for their recreation. Plenty of room for all.
Swap guidelines........
-Absolutely NO "grabbing" before the signal is given. (Then you may have-at-it!)
-Only take as many as you bring.
-PLEASE have plants individually potted, (if you donÂt have leftover pots to use, disposable cups/cans are just fine.),or damp newspaper wrapped in individual portions.
-PLEASE label your plants. (Popsicle sticks are fine, or paper taped onto container.)
It gets very confusing asking, "Who brought this and does anyone know what it is?"
Everyone welcome. The more the merrier!

Georgia Mountain Food Bank's Annual Empty Bowl Lunch is a fundraising event where community members can enjoy a great lunch while supporting our cause. The event includes several meal options donated by our corporate sponsors, a silent auction, and a presentation regarding the impact that GMFB is making across North Georgia. Along with a tasty lunch, guests will take home a hand-painted bowl as a thank you, and as a reminder of our goal to eliminate empty bowls and empty stomachs in our communities. These beautiful and unique bowls are made available through community donations. The money raised at the Empty Bowl Lunch supports our programs throughout the year.
WHAT: Annual Empty Bowl Lunch
WHEN: September 2015
11:00 a.m.- 1:00 p.m
(this event is a drop-in; come when you can, and stay as long as you can)
WHERE: First Baptist Church Gainesville - Banquet Hall
A $25 donation provides a delicious lunch and a painted bowl to take home as a momento of our event. Every donation helps, especially since $25 allows us to provide more than 125 meals to those in need across our service area!
We want you and your business to have the opportunity to reserve a table at our lunch, to invite friends to attend the event with you, and to learn more about our cause. Each table of eight will be reserved with your name (or that of your business), so that you can easily find your seats.
Fulfilling our mission would not be possible without impactful sponsors. Empty Bowl sponsor donations will be used throughout the year to help support our many programs that aim to eliminate hunger in our community.
We are proud to partner with Interactive Neighborhood for Kids (INK) to assist with the bowls for our event. INK has a pottery studio at their museum where a bowl can be painted and donated for the Empty Bowl Lunch; prices to make this bowl at INK start as low as $8. INK is located at 999 Chestnut Street, Gainesville, Georgia. For more information, contact INK at 770-536-1900, or visit their website.
We are reaching out to artists in North Georgia to participate in our event by donating their hand-made or hand-painted pottery, or pieces of art, for our silent auction at the event.
