Hack and / - Memories of the Way Windows Were
I'm a half-organized person. On one hand, if something of mine has a place, I can be pretty anal about making sure I put it back every time I use it. On the other hand, if something doesn't have a place, it inevitably ends up in a pile or a junk drawer. I've learned that if I want to be organized, I must give everything a home.
The same rule applies to my desktop environment. Back when I used to use Windows, I didn't have much of a choice—everything ended up stacking up on the same desktop, either maximized or at some arbitrary size. Once I started using Linux though, I discovered this interesting multiple desktop model. With Linux, I could assign windows into certain groups and then arrange each group on a particular desktop. The main downside to this much organization was that every time I opened a window, I usually needed to resize it and move it to a particular desktop. That's a lot of manual work on my part, and it wasn't long before I discovered that certain window managers supported window memory. With window memory, every window I use on a regular basis can be assigned a location, a size and a desktop.
My first exposure to window memory was with the Enlightenment window manager. Its window memory was quite easy to use and to set. All you had to do was right-click on a window, and you could check off attributes that Enlightenment would remember the next time you opened the window. In addition to having certain sets of terminals and Web browser windows open on certain desktops, I also was able to have windows always stay on top or stick across all desktops. Although it did require a little setup, by the time I was finished arranging my windows once, everything I used on a regular basis had its place on my desktops.
I stayed with Enlightenment for quite some time, even though I was eyeing this new window manager called Fluxbox as a potential replacement. It wasn't until Fluxbox added window memory, however, that I made the switch. Fluxbox's window memory worked a lot like Enlightenment's—right-click on a title bar and toggle the attributes you want to remember. As with Enlightenment, these attributes were assigned based on the window title, so if you had two windows with the same title (say, xterm, with no extra arguments), they both would take those same settings.
I used both Enlightenment and Fluxbox for years, but I kept eyeing the GNOME and KDE desktops all the cool kids were using. For me, window memory was the crucial requirement though, and it wasn't until I made the switch to using Ubuntu that I decided to give one of the "standard" desktop environments a fair shake. Out of the box, it didn't seem like Compiz had any window memory, and this was a major strike against it in my book. However, almost a year later, I still am using Compiz, and I have to credit the advanced window memory that I discovered buried in advanced Compiz settings for keeping me here.
By default, at least in Ubuntu, there are only so many settings you can tweak in Compiz. Compiz provides a tool, however, called CompizConfig Settings Manager (or ccsm) that gives you very detailed control over many different aspects of both Compiz eye-candy effects as well as a lot of the important settings for the window manager itself. The major downside to ccsm, however, is that there are almost too many options—if you don't know exactly what you are looking for, expect to spend some time digging through different categories. Even window memory settings are split between two different categories.
Ubuntu didn't install ccsm automatically for me, but I was able to install it with a quick trip to the package manager, and it should be packaged for other distributions that include Compiz. Once it is installed, you either can type ccsm in a terminal window or click System→Administration→Advanced Desktop Effects Settings. As I mentioned, the default window can be a little daunting (Figure 1) and is split into a narrow left pane that displays the categories and a larger right pane that shows all the particular settings you can configure for the category.
Everything you need to configure window memory in ccsm can be found in the Window Management category, and once you click on that category in the left pane, you drill down into a much more manageable set of options (Figure 2). For some reason, ccsm splits window memory into two different sets of options, Window Rules and Place Windows. The Window Rules options allow you to configure window attributes like stickiness and geometry, and the Place Windows options let you control the viewport and location where the window is placed.

Whittier College Winter 2013
E A SPECIAL MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT HERZBERGER… Thank you, Poets! It was truly remarkable to see the spirit of the Poet family in action throughout December 5, 2012, for the "12/5 Trustee Challenge." This challenge, which promised $25K to student scholarships if 250 gifts were made on that single day, quickly expanded to 375, and then to 750, as alumni, parents, and friends rallied in support of the College. I am excited to report that more than 1,000 donors contributed to Whittier in a record-breaking demonstration of Poet Pride and generosity— and with additional challenges issued by our trustees during the afternoon and evening hours, we were able to make an impressive finish to this campaign even in the final Watch the "Gangnam Poets-Style" video at www.youtube.com/ WhittierCollege! The The Magazine of Whittier College Editor Rock managing Editor Thank you again for your support and enthusiasm. I am humbled by what you have accomplished for our College, and I look forward to our continued success together. Go Poets! Warm regards, Sharon D. Herzberger Dana A. S. Rakoczy Ana Lilia Barraza ASSISTANT Editor Melanie J. Ramos Communications Interns Samantha Quintanar '13 Amber Orozco '13 Art Direction HELP US WITH OUR LATEST CHALLENGE—12,500 "HITS" FOR YOUTUBE VIDEO! The world-premiere of mascot John E. Poet in his "Gangnam, Poets-Style" parody video was another highlight of the 12/5 Challenge. With more than 7,000 views on YouTube to date, we hope this bit of fun continues to stimulate interest in Whittier College, as well as good thoughts and fond memories. "In particular," notes President Herzberger, "I appreciate the many notes of support I have received for my participation. But personally, I think Campus Safety certainly stole the show. If you haven't seen the video, please be sure to check it out!" An anonymous donor has offered an additional $25,000 for student scholarship support if we can reach 12,500 views by June 30, 2013. Please continue to demonstrate your Poet Pride by sharing the video with your friends and family! Lime Twig Poet to Poet Ann Gronewold Contributors minutes before midnight. What a celebration of our beloved College's 125th anniversary! I also want to thank our Board of Trustees who, under the leadership of Chairman Don Herrema '74, generously supported the 12/5 Challenge. And, the Board was inspired by your strong response, as evidenced by their increased giving throughout the day! Increasing participation in giving is critically important to the College. Many grant-making foundations evaluate our ability to engage our alumni, parents, and friends before even considering their own support. Well, the 12/5 Challenge has given us something truly exceptional to highlight the commitment of the Poet family. Additionally, I hope that many of you who made your first-ever gift, or first gift in a long time, will choose to become Faithful Friends by renewing your gift annually. The Faithful Friends program recognizes those loyal supporters who have given to the College in two or more consecutive fiscal years. We are so proud of the many donors with more than 10, 25, and even 50 years of continuous giving.

|Saigon to Baghdad: comparing combat correspondents' experiences in Vietnam and Iraq
|Ganey, Terry
|University of Missouri--Columbia
|This study compared the responses of journalists who covered the Vietnam War with responses of reporters who covered the conflict in Iraq to measure differences and similarities. The comparison showed that reporters working in Iraq faced more constraints in accessing the news because of greater physical danger and less cooperation from the military. Vietnam era journalists had fewer dangers and worked with a military more willing to facilitate coverage. The rules covering embedded journalists in Iraq were more limiting than what journalists in Vietnam encountered. Vietnam era journalists were more likely to use confidential sources than those who covered Iraq. Reporters in Iraq had the benefit of improved technology that enabled them to deliver news more quickly and reliably. This also enabled troops in the field to see what reporters were writing about them. Journalists said the technological improvements should make coverage more accurate. Vietnam era reporters were more likely to have had prior military experience, a difference that might have given them more insight into what was happening. Reporters who covered both wars were drawn to the challenge of tackling the "big story" despite the danger. Journalists in both conflicts said they bonded with the troops they covered and formed personal views of the wars. They said they did not believe these relationships or beliefs affected their reporting.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 - 5 nights
The apartments are designed to cater for the needs of people visiting London either on vacation, business or residential use.
You can check our website where you can enquire to see if the dates you need are available and continue with your booking.
The accommodation includes spacious studio apartments, one bedroom suites and a two bedroom, two bathroom penthouse. Facilities include WiFi broadband, direct dial telephone, Fax/answer phone and room safe. The apartments offer a cost effective and pleasant alternative to hotels and give the visitor somewhere to live as opposed to simply staying in a hotel room. We also provide the accommodation to both large and small companies and because of the level of repeat business we receive we believe we fulfil the needs of the business visitor to London as well. We are situated by the EC3 financial district of the City as well as being only five minutes walk from the World Heritage site of the Tower of London. Tower Hill underground station is a few minutes walk away with its links to the West End. There is a Tesco food supermarket adjacent to Marlyn Lodge.
Please visit our website on www.london-apartment-rental.com
Marlyn Lodge is in a safe and convenient neighborhood. Check in process was smooth, just as described in email instructions, certainly no issues accessing the apartment. Lots of amenities close by, a couple of grocery stores around the corner within a block's walk, tube station within a couple minutes walk. Apartment was in an older building, but the 1 bedroom apartment was nice; it had everything you needed, fridge, stove, microwave, kettle, pots, pans, utensils, dishes, television and a washer/dryer. Only complaint was that it was a little dirty; bedroom walls and nightstands had stains (??), kitchen cupboards and tiles and bathroom floor needed a good clean, there was oatmeal (I'm hoping it was oatmeal) on the floor by the bathtub, under the sink. As mentioned, there is a grocery store (Tesco) around the corner and I bought a few cleaning items and spent a couple of hours wiping down all the furniture, counter tops and cupboards removing all visible stains. We left the apartment cleaner than when we arrived. Housekeeping comes in ONLY to remove garbage and change towels...unless you ask and pay for the housekeeping option, which we didn't. We were relieved to find out that apartment 107 is not on the 1st floor, but on the second floor (I'm guessing by European standards that the first floor is 1 floor above ground level), it provided a view of the small parking lot. Even though the apartment is situated in the downtown core, it was nice and quiet in the evenings when all the workers retreats home for the night...it can get noisy on the weekends from the party goers. Fairly quiet building, don't hear any of the neighbors. The neighbors that you did run into seemed friendly. Wifi was really slow, but it worked. Couldn't figure out how to use the apartment payphone, but we knew that it worked...got a few calls from Telemarketers. We only stayed at Marlyn Lodge for a week, but should've stayed longer. We continued our travels for a few more weeks over different parts of London and stayed at several other locations...none that can be compared to Marlyn Lodge! Overall, if we were to come back to London, we would definitely stay at Marlyn Lodge again.
Marlyn Lodge was quite a find. The online process to rent was simple and clear, as were the instructions to access the unit on arrival. As first time visitors to London and first time booking a place online, we were a bit apprehensive about what we would find. It couldn't have been more convenient, central to everything (the river, tourist attractions, transport, pubs, restaurants, supermarket, etc.), clean, quiet, roomy, very safe neighbourhood, all appliances worked, bed was comfy, etc. It is just as the photos show. And we commend caretaker Jorge and the cleaning lady, very friendly and helpful. Also the rent was very reasonable, considering all the above advantages.
The best recommendation is that we will rent it again without hesitation.
We stayed in a studio at Marlyn Lodge and it was perfect from booking through to our stay. Christine was very helpful and answered any questions we had. When we arrived it was a very easy process. The studio was clean and a very good size with everything you need. The local area had pubs, restaurants and a small supermarket just around the corner. Easy links to all of London. We will definitely stay there again.
I stayed here for 6 days in September 2012. We had a one main problem which explains our rating of 2 out of 5.
Our main complaint was the fact that we only had hot water for less than half a shower each and every day! Hot water was only available for a few minutes before we had only cold water. This was unsatisfactory for a group of three people.
Telephone contact details of the owners were provided but we could have more easily contacted someone to solve our hot water issue if there was someone at the desk in the lobby. As such we would have preferred that the desk in the lobby was staffed.
By the third day the owner did arrange for us to have access to an additional apartment so we could have access to hot water. However we only used the hot shower in the other apartment for one day as (1) when we entered that apartment in the morning the housekeeper and caretaker were there preparing food for their own breakfast, (2) when we entered that apartment in the evening the bathroom was filled with dirty towels, probably from all the other apartments in the building, and (3) we were advised another party about to stay in that apartment. The owners did apologise for the inconvenience and were arranging to fix the hot water problem.
Besides that, a few minor issues were that our apartment smelt a bit funny, the beds were a bit springy, and the wifi was temperamental (perhaps due to the reinforced concrete structure of the building).
The pluses of our stay were that the apartment was clean, quiet and located very close to public transport.
We three people have stayed at the penthouse for a week. The experience was great! The place was allocated within comfortable walking distance from Tower Hill tube station. The place was well equipped with appliances and necessities. We were staying during a rare cold snap in summer, and we found heating and the electric fireplace in the living room most helpful! I imagine the two will be great enjoyment in the winters too. Being at the top the place was quite and secure. And with the well-functioning kitchen and large dining table, having breakfast and occasional dinners were just enjoyable.
The owner is very kind and helpful. I recommend this property for all London visitors, especially if you want some quietness and spaciousness.
We stayed in this apartment for 8 nights in August. The apartment was clean and comfortable although the decor was very different to what is shown in the picture. It had a black sofa and black glass topped table and chairs. The kitchen and bathroom were excellent. It is in a very good position in London, close to the Tube and it is great having a supermarket in the building (Tescos). The only problem was that the airconditioner was very noisy and as it was quite hot at night so we had to open the window and contend with all the noise of London all night.
We would recomment this apartment as extremely good value for the money and much, much better than any medium priced hotel.
The location is great for visiting the historic & iconic sights within the City of London inc. St Paul's, Bank of England, Lloyd's, Girkin etc. We are situated only FIVE minutes walk from the Tower of London, the famous Tower Bridge & St. Katherine's dock with its bars & restaurants. Across the river, if your feeling brave, is the London Dungeon Exhibition. Pleasure boats depart from nearby Tower Pier both down river to Greenwich & up the river to Westminster and beyond stopping at various points including the London Eye & Shakespear Globe Theatre. A bus service (number 15) stops in Minories (located at the end of Portsoken Street) for Trafalgar Square, the Mall and Buckingham Palace, Piccadilly, London theatres and other attractions in the West End. The nearest underground station is Tower Hill on the Circle and District lines and is a few minutes walk from the apartments.

I have been bleaching my upper lip since I was 12. I use a cream called Jolen (I'm in Canada). You can find it at any drugstore next to all the hair removal products like Neet, Nair, etc.
I wouldn't wax or remove it at her age. I don't think it will grow back thicker but there will be a stubble when it does grow back that makes it look even worse. When she's older she can always have laser hair removal, but for now I feel bleaching is the way to go.

|THe thing with bleaching is there is still hair there so you can still be teased.
My ten year old dd has recently been asking about shaving and just brought up that some hair on her upper lip really bothers her and that some kids made fun of her for it. It isn't that dark or thick but it is there and I can understand her point. I have never had this issue and am wondering if anyone has any suggestions for how to handle it. What is the best and least painful way remove it? I already tried talking to her about how beautiful she is and how she should accept herself but I also want to respect her feelings.
