Jutsu (術, Literally meaning: skills/techniques) are the mystical arts a ninja will utilise in battle. To use a technique, the ninja will need to use their chakra. To perform a technique, the ninja will bring out and release the two energies of chakra. By forming hand seals, the ninja is able to manifest the desired technique. Because of the extensive number of hand seals and different combinations, there are thousands of potential techniques to be discovered.
[show]The Basics
There are three basic types of techniques: ninjutsu, genjutsu and taijutsu. Subcategories exist, including fūinjutsu, juinjutsu and senjutsu. There are also kekkei genkai abilities which aren't techniques, but inherited abilities passed down through certain clans (however, they can be used as base for certain techniques, such as Haku's Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals). Kekkei genkai can also be attributed to certain parts of the body, such as dōjutsu.
Without proper control of their chakra, a ninja will produce ineffective or weakened technique which will lead to them running out of chakra early in a fight. To manipulate their chakra more easily, hand seals can be used. With these hand seals, users can control their chakra and technique with higher efficiency. Different techniques require different hand seals.
Depending on the difficulty or skill necessary to perform a technique, they are ranked differently. There are six different ranks in techniques:
- E-rank - Learned by Academy students. Are the basic and most fundamental techniques for all ninja.
- D-rank - Genin-level techniques. Can be achieved by all genin, though many ninja only learn their "type" of technique.
- C-rank - Chūnin-level techniques. Sometimes learned by genin who have trained extensively.
- B-rank - Jōnin-level techniques. Require high levels of chakra to use.
- A-rank - Kage or jōnin-level techniques. Require great control over one's chakra and may be forbidden.
- S-rank - Secret, extreme level techniques. Are typically unique to a single user.
Kekkei Genkai, unique abilities and Tailed Beast Skills normally do not have a rank.
Main Jutsu Types
Main article: Ninjutsu Ninjutsu (忍術, Literally meaning: Ninja Techniques), is a term referring to almost any technique which allows the user to do something that they otherwise would be incapable of doing, including the usage of weapons.
Main article: Genjutsu Genjutsu (幻術, Literally meaning: Illusionary Techniques) are techniques that are employed in the same fashion as ninjutsu, requiring chakra and hand seals. However, the primary difference between the two is that the effects of genjutsu are illusory; instead of attacking the victim's body, like taijutsu or ninjutsu, genjutsu techniques manipulate the flow of chakra in the victim's brain, thus causing a disruption in their senses. According to the Second Mizukage, genjutsu fittingly falls under the broad category of Yin Release.[1]
This is frequently used to create false images or to cause pain from trauma (because the body is led to believe it is in pain); however, there are plenty of other uses depending on the situation.
Main article: Taijutsu Taijutsu (体術, Literally meaning: Body Techniques) is a basic form of techniques and refers to any techniques involving the martial arts or the optimisation of natural human abilities. Taijutsu is executed by directly accessing the user's physical and mental energies, relying on the stamina and strength gained through training. It typically does not require chakra, though chakra may be used to enhance its techniques. Taijutsu generally requires no hand seals to perform, occasionally making use of certain stances or poses, and are far quicker to use than ninjutsu or genjutsu. Taijutsu is simply put: hand-to-hand combat.
Sub Jutsu Types
Barrier Ninjutsu
Main article: Barrier Ninjutsu Barrier Ninjutsu (結界忍術, Kekkai Ninjutsu, Literally meaning: Barrier Ninja Techniques) is the incorporation of barriers into techniques. Essentially these techniques allow the users to manipulate barriers. The user can erect barriers that can be used to protect themselves, or to trap an opponent, amongst other various uses.
Main article: Bukijutsu Bukijutsu (武器術, Literally meaning: Weapon Techniques) are techniques that entail the use of any handheld weapons in combat, whether the users be shinobi or samurai. Students of the Academy are taught the use of ninja weapons and tools like shuriken and kunai, learning how to throw and wield them through target practice.[2][3][4]
Chakra Absorption Techniques
Main article: Chakra Absorption Techniques Chakra Absorption Techniques (チャクラ吸引術, Chakura Kyūin Jutsu, English TV: Chakra Absorption Jutsu) are techniques that allow the user to absorb another individual's chakra. They are typically used to absorb chakra from an opponent and add it to the user's own chakra reserves, allowing them to utilise it as if it were their own, while simultaneously exhausting the opponent's physical energy and limiting the techniques that they can perform.
Chakra Flow
Main article: Chakra Flow Chakra Flow (チャクラ流し, Chakura Nagashi) refers to both the flowing of chakra through an object as well as any technique that increases the potency of a weapon by flowing chakra through it. Usually, elemental chakra is used to flow through bladed weapons in order to either dramatically increase their various pre-existing properties or to gain additional advantageous effects. The user must be touching the tool to initiate chakra flow, but direct contact with the weapon is not necessary to maintain chakra flow. Similarly, techniques such as Kakuzu's Earth Release: Earth Spear, Rōshi's Lava Release Chakra Mode and the Fourth Raikage's Lightning Release Chakra Mode are used to increase close-quarter combat offence and defence by flowing chakra directly through the user's body. However, whether through an individual's body or weapon, the exact effects observed are entirely dependent upon the respective nature and amount of the chakra used.
Clone Techniques
Main article: Clone Techniques Clone Techniques (分身術, Bunshinjutsu) are techniques that create a copy of the user or objects used by them. The standard Clone Technique is considered the most basic of basic ninjutsu. Despite this, clone techniques are very versatile and useful, and are often used to distract or fool enemies into thinking that they have hit the user devastatingly, leaving the enemy vulnerable. Various villages have created their own characteristic forms of clone techniques.[citation needed] Besides these, there are many more clone techniques; varying in uses and skill level.[citation needed]
There are different methods of creating clones. Some commonly used clone techniques use only chakra to create the clone. Also, there are clone techniques that use a medium. These clone techniques use various elements to give the clone form and substance. There are also clone techniques that transform another person or animal into a clone of the user, like the Beast Human Clone. Finally, there are clone techniques that make use of genjutsu to create illusionary clones, like the Mist Servant Technique.[5]
Cooperation Ninjutsu
Main article: Cooperation Ninjutsu Cooperation ninjutsu (連携忍術, Renkei Ninjutsu), called collaboration techniques (コンビ術, Konbijutsu, English TV: collaboration jutsu) in the anime, pertains to a branch of techniques where two or more existing techniques are combined to produce a much more powerful one. When initiated with the right timing, one will feed into each other to become a technique of greater power than the sum of its parts.
Main article: Fūinjutsu Fūinjutsu (封印術, Literally meaning: Sealing Techniques) are a type of jutsu that seal objects, living beings, chakra, along with a wide variety of other things within another object. Fūinjutsu can also be used to restrict movement or unseal objects either from within something or someone.
Main article: Hiden Hiden (秘伝, Literally meaning: secret tradition) or simply "secret" techniques are passed down orally from generation to generation in certain regions or clans.
The groups who possess these techniques are usually extremely secretive about them in order to ensure that no one other than the members of the group or clan learn them. As such, they are passed down through oral means instead of being written down or recorded. A few hiden techniques require a special ability or lineage and as such are usually the pride and fame of the clan that possesses them.
Main article: Juinjutsu Juinjutsu (呪印術, Viz: Curse Mark Jutsu, Literally meaning: Cursed Seal Techniques) are a type of techniques used to bring someone under the control of the user. By applying a seal to the victim's body, the user brings the victim's abilities and actions under his/her control.
Kekkei Mōra
Main article: Kekkei Mōra Kekkei Mōra (血継網羅, Literally meaning: Bloodline Encompassing) is an advanced branch of jutsu unique to Kaguya Ōtsutsuki and her direct bloodline.
Main article: Kenjutsu Kenjutsu (剣術, Literally meaning: Sword Technique) pertains to techniques that entail the use of swords, whether the users be shinobi, or samurai. Kenjutsu can be used in combination with taijutsu, ninjutsu, fūinjutsu, chakra flow and even genjutsu in order to achieve more devastating techniques. It is regarded as a branch of bukijutsu.
Main article: Kinjutsu Kinjutsu (禁術, Literally meaning: Forbidden Techniques) are techniques that have been banned from being taught or used.
Medical Ninjutsu
Main article: Medical Ninjutsu Medical Ninjutsu (医療忍術, Iryō Ninjutsu, Literally meaning: Medical Ninja Techniques) is a branch of ninjutsu associated with healing, as well as the manipulation of their own, or anothers' body, practised by shinobi categorised as "medical-nin". The use of medical ninjutsu requires very advanced chakra control, as well as extensive knowledge on such things as herbs, medicines, the human body and even poisons.
Main article: Ninshū Ninshū (忍宗, Viz: Ninja Creed, Literally meaning: Shinobi Sect) is the religion and the peaceful precursor of modern ninjutsu created by Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki, the first one to understand and teach the mystery of chakra. The teachings of ninshū were meant to give people a better understanding of themselves, as well as others, and lead the world into an era of peace. Unfortunately, ninshū would eventually come to be known as ninjutsu, a more weaponised version of the Sage's teachings.
Main article: Nintaijutsu Nintaijutsu (忍体術, Literally meaning: Ninja Body Techniques)[6] is a term used to describe the fighting style used by the Third[7] and Fourth Raikage. A combination of ninjutsu and taijutsu, the Raikage uses nintaijutsu by first surrounding himself with his Lightning Release Chakra Mode. This augments the strength of his physical attacks, making them even deadlier. His speed and reflexes are also increased. It is unknown if there are other examples of nintaijutsu.
Reincarnation Ninjutsu
Main article: Reincarnation Ninjutsu Reincarnation Ninjutsu (転生忍術, Tensei Ninjutsu, Literally meaning: Life Transfer Ninja Techniques" or "Reincarnation Ninja Techniques) are techniques that usually require or accomplish the transfer of life force between people. These techniques are generally classified as kinjutsu because the restoration of one life typically requires the sacrifice of the life of another, or that it violates the laws of nature and morality.
Main article: Senjutsu Senjutsu (仙術, English TV: Sage Jutsu, Literally meaning: Sage Techniques) is a specialised field of techniques that allows the user to sense and then gather natural energy. Senjutsu practitioners learn to draw the energy of nature inside of them, blending it with their own chakra. This adds a new dimension of power to the practitioner's chakra, resulting in the creation of "senjutsu chakra" (仙術チャクラ, senjutsu chakura).
Main article: Shurikenjutsu Shurikenjutsu (手裏剣術, Literally meaning: sword hidden in the hand techniques) pertains to techniques that entail the throwing of shuriken, kunai, senbon, or any other of a number of bladed, hand-held weapons. Shurikenjutsu can be used in combination with taijutsu, ninjutsu, and/or chakra flow in order to create more devastating techniques.
Space–Time Ninjutsu
Main article: Space–Time Ninjutsu Space–Time Ninjutsu (時空間忍術, Jikūkan Ninjutsu, English TV: Teleportation Ninjutsu" or "Transportation Techniques, Literally meaning: Space–Time Ninja Techniques)[8] are techniques that allow the users to manipulate the space–time continuum.
Blood Limit Types
Kekkei Genkai
Main article: Kekkei Genkai Kekkei genkai (血継限界, Literally meaning: a technique limited to inheritance by blood" or "Bloodline Limit) are abilities passed down genetically within specific clans. It's possible for a shinobi to have more than one of these abilities. Kekkei genkai abilities that work via the user's eye are called dōjutsu. Other kekkei genkai include mixing one type of elemental chakra with another, creating a new one unique to the users, which is usually impossible for normal ninja, or other bodily manipulations that are usually unachievable by normal standards.
Kekkei Tōta
Main article: Kekkei Tōta Kekkei tōta (血継淘汰, Literally meaning: a selection of blood inheritance" or "Bloodline Selection) is an advanced branch of jutsu that is more advanced than the jutsu class of kekkei genkai.[9] The only known example is Dust Release, a combination of three different nature transformations — earth, wind, and fire.
Main article: Dōjutsu Dōjutsu (瞳術, English TV: Visual Jutsu, Literally meaning: Eye Techniques) are genetic ninja abilities that utilise the eyes, granting the wielder ocular abilities. Being a by-product of specific kekkei genkai, dōjutsu are not classified as one of the major jutsu types. They do not require the use of hand seals and in some cases facilitate in the use of or defence against genjutsu, taijutsu and ninjutsu and then defeat their opponent. All known dōjutsu also provide the user with some unique abilities, such as an extended field of vision or predictive capabilities. The use of dōjutsu often-time consumes a great deal of chakra. It should also be noted that along with the eye itself, techniques that stem from the eye's use are also known as dōjutsu. Some of these techniques can be used without an activated dōjutsu and even if the user does not actually possess eyes at all.[10]

Contraband Cuisine #118 Different countries have different standards to determine the safety of foods. Most government health organizations quickly ban foods that pose potential health risks. But there is an entirely separate category of cuisine that falls into the "gray zone," not necessarily dangerous, but banned for a variety of other reasons. Often, with this controversial fare, what ends up being legal in one country is considered contraband in another. From the reemergence of mind-altering Absinthe in France to gourmet uses of the coca leaf, from Ireland's potent Poitin liquor to a luxurious Foie Gras update to the Chicago-style hot dog, come see how some enticing foods are a lightning rod to both the connoisseurs who savor them and those who feel compelled to protest. |

These "hyperpigmentations" that we commonly refer to as age spots go by many different names such as liver spots, sun spots or solar lentigines. They tend to appear on the areas of the body which receive the most amount of sun, for example on the hands, face, shoulders, and arms. If you have any brown spots on your skin, it's important to have it checked by a dermatologist as it may be skin cancer.
What Causes Age Spots?
There's no doubt about it, age spots come from the sun. These little spots are the result of melanin pigment building up in the skin and are one of the five main signs of aging caused by the sun (the other four being wrinkles, enlarged pores, sagging skin and spider veins). Most of the aging skin I see is caused not by the passage of time and chronological aging, but from the sun. The brown spots you see appearing on your face, this is not a function of age, but of sun exposure. If you don't believe me, take a look at the skin on your bottom and you'll find very few 'age spots' because it's so rarely exposed to the sun.
Age Spot Removal
There are a number of possible treatment options out there if you are looking to remove abnormal pigmentations on your skin. These range from like chemical peels and typical skin lightening creams such as hydroquinone, all the way to laser and IPL treatments. Remember to first see a dermatologist to be sure that these spots are not cancer or precancerous lesions.
Laser Treatment is Effective
Of the treatments available, laser treatment is generally considered very effective at getting rid of age spots and is consider the gold standard for treatment. Intense pulsed light (IPL or "photofacial") is also used to remove these spots. Laser treatment may require two or more sessions to completely remove the spots depending on how many there are and on which area of the body.
Does Laser Treatment Hurt?
These laser treatments may hurt a bit, however most of my patients find the pain to be very tolerable and passes quickly. There may be some slight tingling sensation following the treatment, however it usually goes away on the same day. Typical recovery time is less than 3 days and patients are able to return to normal activity right after the treatment. You should avoid the sun directly after the treatment, however.
Are the Results Permanent
In general we find that laser removal of age spots is permanent, however people do sometimes see new spots appear as they go back out into the sun. These are new spots forming as a result of sun exposure, not a recurrence of the old, removed spots. Good sun-avoidance is key if you wish to see your skin free of sun spots.
Can They Be Prevented?
Contrary to popular belief, tan skin is not healthy skin. While you might think you look better with a sun kissed glow, baking on the beach (or in a tanning bed) is never a good idea. A tan is our body's way of telling us our skin has been damaged, and is its attempt to protect itself from further damage. As we undergo UVA and UVB light exposure from the sun's rays or from tanning beds, we are damaging our skin. This damage will lead to hyperpigmentation.
Sun Protection and UV Avoidance
Preventing age spots requires sun avoidance and sun protection. When it comes to truly keeping skin healthy and youthful, it's all about SPF. Sun protection and also an antioxidant and topical retinoid are critical to preventing skin damage. Even if you already have sun damaged skin, it's never too late to start wearing sunscreen. This will help prevent further damage and age spotting.
If you're going to be in the sun for lengthy periods, wear a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses and even use an umbrella to shield yourself from the rays.
Protect your Skin in the Car
Even if you're only planning to be outdoors for a short amount of time, the sun's rays will still reach you. There are also other, more unexpected times the sun can cause damage. For example, you might not realize it but much of the sun damage we get happens while we're driving. Car window glass protects us from 100 percent of the UVB light (the light which causes a burn), but none of the UVA, the light responsible for sun damage and aging skin. I advise all of my patients to have UVA-protecting film installed on their car windows. This helps prevent much of the sun damage which causes brown spots.
Say Yes to Sunscreen
Wearing sunscreen is one thing, but the real key to saving your skin is diligence. Haphazardly applying a little sunscreen here and there just isn't good enough and you need to apply every day, even when you don't think it's necessary. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, even on a cloudy day, up to 80 percent of the sun's UV rays can pass through the clouds.
Use about one ounce (the equivalent of a shot glass) to cover your body, but adjust based on your size.
Apply sunscreen 15 minutes before you leave the house and then every two hours so you're adequately protected. Don't forget about your ears, lips, hands and feet. Sunscreen should go everywhere to ensure you're fully protected.

A peanut allergy occurs when the body responds abnormally to peanuts. The reaction may range from mild to life-threatening. Even a very small amount of peanuts can lead to a serious reaction.
This condition may be serious. It requires care from a doctor.
The allergy occurs when your body is exposed to peanut proteins. The body mistakes the proteins as harmful substances, and the immune system releases chemicals into the bloodstream, which causes symptoms .
Coming in contact with peanuts can occur by:
- Eating peanuts, foods containing them, or foods that came in contact with them
- Touching peanuts
- Inhaling particles containing peanuts, such as peanut flour
Risk Factors
Peanut allergy, like other food allergies , is more common in children. Other factors that may increase your chance of a peanut allergy include:
- Other allergies, such as food or hay fever
- Personal or family history of allergies
- Chronic inflammation of the outer layers of the skin— atopic dermatitis
Peanut allergy may cause:
- Redness or swelling of the skin— hives
- Itching or tingling of the mouth and throat
- Diarrhea
- Stomach cramps
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Shortness of breath or wheezing
- Chest tightness
- Runny or stuffy nose
Anaphylaxis is a serious, life-threatening allergic reaction. Anaphylaxis may cause:
- Closing of airways or swelling of throat, making it very hard to breathe
- Severe drop in blood pressure
- Very fast pulse
- Lightheadedness
- Loss of consciousness
If you have a serious allergic reaction or are with someone who does, call for emergency medical services or go to the nearest emergency room right away.
You may be referred to a doctor who specializes in allergies. The doctor will:
- Ask about your symptoms
- Take your medical history
- Do a physical exam
Tests may include:
- Skin prick test—To look for a skin reaction when exposed to specific food particles.
- Blood test—To look for an antibody called immunoglobulin E (IgE), which is present when you are exposed something that gives you an allergic reaction.
Food Diary
The doctor may ask you to keep a food diary. This means you will write down your experiences with food, such as your eating habits and symptoms. This may help the doctor find out what food(s) may be causing your allergies.
Elimination Diet
The doctor may put you on an elimination diet to learn which foods may be triggering an allergic reaction. If your doctor thinks you might be allergic to peanuts, you may be asked to remove peanuts from your diet for 1-2 weeks then add them back to your diet to see if you experience any symptoms. The elimination diet is only done under a doctor's supervision.
Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Options include:
Avoid Peanuts
The best treatment is to avoid peanuts, foods containing them, and foods that may have been exposed to them. Always read ingredient labels, even if you do not think the food contains peanuts. Most food labels will state whether the factory where a food was made also processes peanuts. If offered homemade foods, always ask about the ingredients to check for the presence of peanuts or peanut oil.
If you do have a mild allergic reaction, you may be able to take antihistamines to reduce symptoms, like itching or hives. Talk with your doctor about medications that are right for you.
Epinephrine Injection
For severe allergic reactions, you may need to inject yourself with epinephrine. Epinephrine is injected using an auto-injector (EpiPen, Twinject), which contains a syringe, needle, and a dose of the the medication. You inject the medication into your thigh. You should carry an auto-injector with you at all times.
For any severe reaction, call for emergency medical services or go to the nearest emergency room right away.
If you are pregnant and do not have a peanut allergy, you may want to consider consuming peanuts to lower the risk that your child will have a peanut allergy.
To help reduce your chance of a reaction to peanuts:
- Avoid peanuts, peanut-containing products, and foods that were exposed to peanuts. For instance, when placing an order at a restaurant, ask the server if the dish contains peanuts or is cooked with items (sauces or oils) that may contain peanuts.
- Read food labels and other labels, such as medications, make-up, or face cream labels. You never know what items may contain peanuts.
Here are some foods that may contain peanuts or may have been made in factories that process peanuts:
- Cookies
- Pastries
- Ice cream
- Energy bars
- Cereal
- Bread
- Salad dressing
- Chocolate candies
- Nut butters and oils
- Sauces and gravies
- Vegetarian food products, such as veg burgers
The list may be endless. This is why it is very important to be aware of what you are eating or come in contact with. Even the smallest amount of peanut protein can trigger a life-threatening response.

Phoronix: Canonical - Ubuntu Tablet Announcement Tomorrow

Phoronix: Canonical - Ubuntu Tablet Announcement Tomorrow
Canonical has made it not so subtly known that they will be making an Ubuntu tablet related announcement tomorrow...
I proposed they make a tablet in the past (http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/10970/). Too late now. I'm getting a distinct impression that if Apple's motto is to 'think different' and Microsoft's is to 'embrace and extend' then Canonical's must be to 'follow the herd'.
Good job. I'm sure they'll give you all the money..
Seriously though, tablet computers have been being pushed by Microsoft since the 90's. Even in '08 it wasn't a revolutionary idea. The thing that made the iPad revolutionary was the use of hardware which made it ultra thin and light, and had not been available in '08, and combined it with a great software experience. Ubuntu in '08 was nowhere near ready for tablets, nor was the hardware.
Ubuntu Tablet OS on Microsoft Surface Pro would be pretty cool. :)
Should not be that hard to port either. It uses fairly standard hardware x86 even.
If you want an Ubuntu tablet, just get a Nexus 10. Much better battery life, and costs less than half the price. Most apps should work just fine.
i'm sorry to say this, but i don't want that purple vomit on my tablet. stop chasing apple, you'll lose. I would love to see CLI scraped error messages on my modern tablet. same goes for KDE devs. other than FOSS dorks, no-one wants your crufty QML crap. we already three platforms that work better on tablets than a shoehorned linux desktop.
This is excellent news as in the last week I went from my Nexus 7 running rooted Android 4.1.2 to trying to patch to 4.2.2, and it not taking the patch in first attempt, to them installing Plasma Active for another trial and then thinking I'll wait to see if a Ubuntu Phone rebuild will make it to the Nexus 7 to change. Now I should be getting a proper build image for the device.
I all goes well it will be Ubuntu Phone for Tablet, with an image for Nexus 7.
What I expect:
* screen rotation
* keyboard properly focussing for text fields
* text field having ability to hold down and context menu for cut/copy/paste
* pinch zoom available in areas where you expect it
* GFX + video acceleration
* sound in/out
* video player able to streaming over the network, not download the whole move before play
* eBook viewer
Go back to your dog cave.
I'll say this for the opportunity for others to read.
Linux on a tablet will bring far better liberties then other platforms. Example;
* Repository system and any app stores you want
* Proper networking core
* Ubuntu's dock it mode to make full desktop... hdmi/usb/keyboard/mouse needed
* Vast array of existing source-code and pre-compiled apps
* QML opportunities to create and profit form it and other platforms
* Zippy speeds
* Developer and system management tools for IT people
I think the area where many tablets and phones are lacking is the re-emergence of stylus. Screen makers may move into adding proper stylus sensors in the future. This is probably the only good feature with the Microsoft's Surface Pro tablet. Ubuntu/Linux developers need to consider this support in all the design.
Dogs in caves are pretty ratty though.
With out starting another post. I'm amazed no one has made a full 3D tablet OS, where everything is pinch zoomable/rotate. With other gestures to manage the input and control. A virtual emergence through the tablet screen.
It kind of sucks that only some content scales or your apps are forced to suit the screen size, in most tablet and phone OSes. Apple probably has the best experience for manipulation.

She won't stay mum about Day of Silence
New board member warns of 'dangers of a homosexual lifestyle'
Germantown — Is it a day to combat bullying or a way to promote gay rights?
Newly elected School Board member Diana Kline so strongly opposed the Day of Silence observance at the high school Friday, she had planned to keep her two children home that day, according to an e-mail she sent to district administrators and board members.
On Tuesday, Kline declined to comment on the Day of Silence or whether she kept her children home, but Superintendent Kenneth Rogers confirmed that three students did not attend school that day for personal reasons. He could not confirm those personal reasons.
The Day of Silence is a student-led national event that brings attention to the name-calling, bullying and harassment of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender students. Students from middle school to college take some form of a vow of silence to encourage schools and classmates to address the problem of anti-LGBT behavior.
The event is designed to illustrate the silencing effect of this bullying and harassment on LGBT students and those perceived to be LGBT.
Kline opposes 'propaganda'
Kline stated in her e-mail that the Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network, which sponsors the event, "promotes students and faculty to remain silent during instructional time of the day and/or it promotes teachers to arrange their lesson plans as such to create an environment that allows students and faculty to remain silent during class time."
"I will not allow them (her children) to be exposed to this misguided propaganda in the public school," she wrote.
In her e-mail, she included a link to a Web site created by the American College of Pediatricians "designed to provide policymakers, parents, administrators, teachers and youth with the most current medical and psychological facts about sexual development."
She also urged the administrators and board members to educate themselves "on the facts about the dangers of a homosexual lifestyle."
However, when asked about her views on the Day of Silence, she said declined to comment, adding that she plans to find out what other parents think about it.
"I want to be the voice of the people," she said.
To get her views, she suggested people call her directly at (262) 501-6716.
Guaranteed right
According to the Day of Silence Web site, students who participate in the program can express their opinions at a public school during noninstructional time, like breaks between classes, before and after the school day, lunchtime and any other free times. It notes students do not have a right to remain silent during class time, if a teacher asks them to speak.
Students are urged to talk to teachers in advance, asking if it would be OK to communicate in writing on that day.
"I was not aware of any change in teacher or student behavior other than the student-led anti-bullying, which included buttons and some posters," Rogers stated in an e-mail. "The students followed appropriate policy and procedure for student-led initiatives. Under district policy and guaranteed constitutional rights, these activities could not be denied."
He clarified that it was a student-led initiative; the district doesn't sponsor the event.
In response to a reporter's question about the allegations of propaganda, Rogers stated "as educators we do not allow proselytizing or propaganda on any issue.
"The district has a consistent and continual policy of anti-bullying," he added. "Anti-bullying is a yearly goal expressed and supported by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction.
"We believe such a goal to be very important in these times and appreciate any support in making sure all students are comfortable, safe and welcome in our buildings," he said. "When students or any other group volunteer to support such a goal, it is certainly welcome."
Kline is scheduled to be sworn in at the next School Board meeting Monday.

An affliction affecting male subjects in which lapses of memory, specifically regarding the identity of their significant others, occur. This condition is usually triggered by short skirts, painted-on jeans, subtle feminine winks, and overt instances of camel toe. All men are afflicted to some degree and I sincerely pity the fool who dreams up a cure.

The condition where one cannot remember that last time he got laid. Advanced stage: cannot remember with whom. Very advanced stage: Similar to advanced stage except he is married and faithful.
I cannot remember that last time I got, um, what's the word I'm looking for. Oh yeah, "laid." I must have Balzheimer's Disease.

Will the Vivaldi be using the Lima driver or using the proprietary X11 2D driver from ARM?
Phoronix: Open-Source ARM Mali Driver Update (Lima)
This weekend at LinuxTag 2012, an update was shared concerning the state of the Lima driver project -- the initiative to create a reverse-engineered, open-source ARM Mali driver...
Will the Vivaldi be using the Lima driver or using the proprietary X11 2D driver from ARM?
were they going to ever focus on making a gallium driver for the mali 400? thats what im most interesdet in, mesa not too long ago gained support for android so it would be able to provide a very capable modile gl implementation
There will be no gallium driver for mali. Turns out that gallium is too intertwined with TGSI to be able to run the framework with ARMs binary shader compiler. We need the ability to swap around the ARM compiler and our own free compiler (current plan is that it will be TGSI based), so that we can compare them directly and extensively. This is the only sane way for us to get actual performance comparable to the closed driver. This means that we will be writing a "standard" mesa driver instead, which will give us the flexibility we need.
About the timing, it depends, mostly on how much time i get to work on the project. We are doing this job in a structured way, and complete the tasks in a logical and efficient order. There is no point throwing halfarsed stuff into a mesa framework from afar while fundamental REing work is still ongoing. That's just stupid timewasting, and is simply a big and meaningless statement. I am personally quite sick of people who take huge shortcuts, leave tons of blanks, just to be able to pee against the tree, shout "I've done it!!!!!" and then run off to the next tree. That's sort of behaviour is just damaging free software.
And please, look at the timeframe for this project, and then remember that this is all reverse engineering. Where were we 6 months ago? Where are we today?
oh, so this is still in the initial RE phase, i thought this effort was to actualy create a finished product, at least thats what the phoronix articles have been billing it as.
My work/time on the shader reverse engineering and tools has been sponsored by CodeThink.With no company officially financing the work
I do not see why "still in the initial RE phase" and "effort [was] to actualy create a finished product" would be perpendicular. We are still in the RE phase, making mad progress, and we will create a working driver out of it in the near future. Actually, did you read any of the articles or see any of the slides? I do not think you can label this as "initial REing", we are bloody advanced. Whether drivers or any software is ever finished, is another matter entirely, it only becomes finished when it is a dead project.
I saw your recent YouTube video driver demo: Lima Video Driver in Action
Totally awesome work guys!

Just ... plain ... awesome!
