HURLBURT FIELD — Although she was dressed in her Air Force fatigues, Staff Sgt. Marlene Acevedo on Wednesday was an Afghan local the United States wanted to hire as an interpreter.
She was negotiating with Lt. Col. Mark Guillory, who was trying to recruit her for the job.
In the classroom at the Air Force Special Operations School at Hurlburt Field, that type of hands-on role-playing is common. It's how students learn to interact with other cultures when they work in foreign countries.
"They have to be able to negotiate and communicate with people who are so totally different," said Biff Baker, who has taught the Intercultural Competencies Course he helped design since 2011.
More than 300 students take the course each year. Most are training to become combat aviation advisors about to deploy on partnership-building missions.
Cultural skills have proved vital in the last years of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, what Baker termed the "hearts and minds campaign."
"We go in and kill as much as possible. That's the easy part; we are the best at killing in the world," he said. "But after that comes the work of making peace, building nations. That's the hardest."
Many deployments require understanding the different gears of local people's lives; what drives them socially, politically and financially, he said.
In Wednesday's exercise, Guillory, a pilot, and Acevedo, a security forces instructor, both stationed at Duke Field, negotiated where the interpreter from Kabul would work — tribe and community are extremely important in Afghan culture. They negotiated how much she would be paid and whether she would receive help to get a U.S. visa, a big concern because interpreters sometimes get killed for assisting troops.
Other exercises include negotiating for a hostage or with a large group through an interpreter in a life-or-death situation.
"People usually leave pretty stressed out after those," Baker said. "It really hits home for them."
He recently had a Navy SEAL with 40 previous deployments take the course. He contacted Baker to tell him that he used everything he had learned in the five-day course almost every day during his six-month tour.
Another former student, a doctor, said just a week after leaving the course that he had a Muslim couple come to his office and used what he learned about gender roles in Afghanistan to examine and treat them.
"What's great about this course is that you know you are making a real-world difference," Baker said. "These people are the face of the United States. They know what they are doing is so important."

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Terry Pratchett for standing up and showing everyone how heart breaking and soul destroying living with Alzheimer's is.
My nan, who I was very close to was taken by Alzheimer's 3 years ago and although her body is still breathing, her mind has died. I haven't been able to go and see her in 3 years as I want to remember the person I loved and not the shell when she finally does go.
This illness is in someways far worse for the family than for the suffer as once they have gone they know or remember no-one in the present, but for us family members, you are going through a very long, drawn out grieving process and yet you still have to care for your loved one.
Thank you so very much Terry for your documentary and we can only hope that more funds are made available for the research into Alzheimer's.
Thank you for reading this.
(Apologies if this is a repeat thread, I'm a newbie)

Who needs a fancy new Mustang when you can make a classic shoebox Nova handle just as well? Bryan Fargo worked as a mechanic for Roush Industries in California while in school to become an engineer, and took some heat for being the only guy in the heart of Mustang performance to be driving a Chevy. (Roush sells thousands of souped-up new Mustangs annually-including supercharged versions-through a network of Ford dealers.)
After purchasing the Nova as a running project in '99, Bryan sold his '72 Malibu to pay for paint and bodywork on his new driver. Slowly and over time on the weekends, upgrades were made to the car as school and money allowed. After all, the Nova was his daily driver and he couldn't have it sitting.
Once he could afford a daily commuter, Bryan retired the Nova to weekend cruising and dragstrip duty. But going in a straight line got boring, and the call of corner carving was the siren song necessary to turn Bryan to upgrading the Nova's handling abilities. Since a front subframe was out of the question cost-wise, Brian decided to upgrade the existing subframe and suspension. After doing some research, Bryan went to the suspension pros at Classic Performance Products (CPP). CPP had the products necessary, and within budget for the project. Here's what he got:
$699.00 6267TCA-UKS Mini-subframe with upper & lower tubular arms. These come pre-assembled with bushings and ball joints.
$569.00 6267COK Coilover spring and shock kit.
$149.00 CP108U A 1-inch diameter front sway bar. Black powdercoat finish, bolts on in OE mount, works with OE lower control arms & CPP tubular lower control arms.
$139.00 CP916U A 3/4-inch diameter rear sway bar. Black powdercoat finish, bolts to rear axle, requires simple drilling.
After installing all these parts, Bryan and some friends fabricated a rack-and-pinion steering system on the cheap (being an engineer has its advantages) to keep the Nova going straight and with better steering response than stock. The finishing touch was a big-brake upgrade so the Nova had plenty of whoa power. After hitting a couple of autocross events and doing some tuning, the '67 was ready for our event.
Driver's Impression - On the Autocross Course
I watched Nick Licata take each car through the slalom and was immediately impressed with CPP's Nova. The car appeared to be very well balanced with good response to directional changes and I wasn't disappointed one bit when I got my turn behind the wheel. This car started off fast and just improved from there. A couple of negatives, however, as the tilt column chose that day to self-destruct. This was remedied by bolting it in place. The steering wheel ended up a bit low and there was a hint of play every time I needed to change direction but not to worry, we got it done.
Another issue was having the accelerator pedal partially unhinge itself and then drop below the pedal rod. Being in the end sweeper when it happened didn't slow me down and I was able to power the Nova back and finish the run. The errant pedal was removed and ceremoniously thrown to the masses and my third, fourth, and fifth runs were made sans pedal. I think these runs were faster, too.
I loved the Nova in the offset slalom section and exiting this element heading for the crossover allowed for some intentional rotation. At the end of the hourglass just before the sweeper, I trail-braked hard and this car just slowed and turned in like expected. The brakes were great and stopped the car with minimal lockup, if any.

Stories from people who were children during World War II and the objects in this exhibit animate the past and inform us of a time when war took over daily life. "Retrospect is a very interesting thing," says Ruthie Kallnder. "At the time I don't recall any of the information we got as being propaganda," but the government tried to influence children to make "necessary" sacrifices. Propagandists made the war a battle between good and evil, democracy and fascism. They also asked children to share in the war effort. In response, many children took on more responsibilities. Ruthie explains that boys and girls felt "if that's what it was going to take" to win they "were willing to do it." The memories of the people in this exhibit and their wartime actions show the power of propaganda's messages and its lasting affect on their lives. Propaganda posters, children's books, and classroom assignments demonstrate how propagandists reached children and involved them in the national war effort.

Seven months have passed since the survivors of the 2nd Mass reached Charleston, which has been named capital of the New United States.
If you know what that sentence means, you probably are a fan of the TNT series "Falling Skies."
I am, and I can't wait for season three. Fortunately, it starts at 8 p.m. Sunday with a special two-hour premiere.
You also know the seven months time element is pretty much literal. It's been a long hiatus for what TNT calls "basic cable's No. 1 summer drama with adults 25-54."
While TNT sent me an advanced screener, they also politely asked journalists to "preserve the surprises for viewers and refrain from revealing any spoiler information."
A reasonable request, to be sure. In that spirit, I'll stick closely to details in the accompanying press release.
Noah Wyle stars in the drama produced by DreamWorks Television with Steven Spielberg as executive producer. The high-quality pedigree shows in everything from the cast to the special effects.
As the premiere opens, Tom Mason (Wyle) has been elected to public office. His government has formed alliances with the rebel skitters, identified by their painted faces, and the Volm, another race of aliens who showed up at the end of season two.
They're all fighting the Espheni, also known as fishheads.
Dr. Anne Glass (Moon Bloodgood) is due any day with her and Tom's child. Weaver (Will Patton) is now a colonel.
Tom's son, Ben (Connor Jessup), is still an intermediary between the humans and the rebel skitters. Son, Hal (Drew Roy) is recovering from battle injuries and other more mysterious ailments.
Berserker leader Pope (Colin Cunningham) has set up his own little Popetown on the outskirts of Charleston.
It's a lot to absorb, but you'll quickly get your bearings especially if you've been watching the reruns of "Falling Skies" airing recently on TNT.
Many new characters and guest stars appear in the season opener. Among them are Doug Jones as Volm leader Cochise (a nickname bestowed by the humans); Gloria Reuben as Tom's key aide, Marina Perlata; and Robert Sean Leonard, whom we all knew and loved as Dr. Wilson, the long-suffering friend of Dr. Gregory House.
Here he is still a doctor, Roger Kadar, but one of the scientific genius order. Incidentally, Leonard's boyish good looks are obscured to the point that without this heads-up you might have had difficulty recognizing him.
Stephen Collins will also appear this season as Benjamin Hathaway, president of the United States before the alien invasion.
So, hang onto your harnesses and enjoy the return of "Falling Skies."
Also returning to the summer series lineup this week is another of my favorites, "Royal Pains" on USA Network.
The season 5 premiere is at 8 p.m. June 12, which is the show's usual Wednesday slot. The episode is re-aired at 11:02 that night and again at 8 a.m. Saturday and 11:06 p.m. Monday, according to the website.
When last we saw Hank & Co., however, it was back in December for a special episode focused on Evan and Paige's nuptials.
I don't have any advance insider information to share with you, just this friendly reminder to watch if you're so inclined.

I don't get it. Is she saying Sammy had dirty feet?14. If You Wear Sandals, Your Feet Will Look Like They Belong To Sammy Davis Jr. The floor is real real dirty. So if you wear sandals, be prepared to not be able to look your feet in the eye for a good few days given their filth factor.
also, her comment:
you mean the fucking ground? outside? yeah it's dirty, bitch. the earth is fucking made out of dirt. what the fuck do you expect?The floor is real real dirty.
Wat. Has she ever seen Fat Albert? The person she is referencing is Fat Albert's friend Dumb Donald.6. Leonardo DiCaprio Is Hot Fat Albert. I spotted him at the Neon Carnival on Saturday night (along with about a million other famous people, but Leo trumps all.) He had his hat pulled so far down over his eyes that he basically had no eyes. He should consider cutting two eyeholes in his hat, kind of like a Hot Fat Albert.

Quick question, has anyone else here actually held a fetus? They're not very cute.
I have a nice long response that my employer paid me to write yesterday (unbeknownst to them). I can't get into the comments area at work for some reason, so I need to send it home and remember to post it this weekend.
The person who wrote this is trolling you guys hard.
She's writing in a tongue-in-cheek sort of way, people. She's using a ton of sarcasm and embellishment on a blog for a show that's littered with sarcasm and embellishment. A lot of it isn't all that funny, but I can't believe some of you think this is serious.

Where was this Machine Gun Alley? Is this another case of morons claiming the hipster parties they go to off the grounds are Coachella? Probably.
I'm going to post some Onion articles for you guys to deconstruct next.

On January 6, 1997, Saint Leo College's newly appointed president, Arthur F. Kirk, Jr., stood before faculty and staff to describe the future he pictured for the school. "I see great potential here and I can envision Saint Leo being the great Catholic university of the southeastern United States," he said. "We have the potential to combine the resources of a university with a small college's strengths of community and commitment to each student's learning and development."
In the years since Dr. Kirk arrived at Saint Leo, his vision––for Saint Leo to become a leading Catholic teaching university––has guided the efforts of its faculty and staff. Enrollments have doubled and graduation rates have improved significantly. Seven new buildings have been constructed, seven others purchased, and several more extensively renovated and refurbished.
Today the university's curriculum is more academically rigorous than at any time in the school's history. Student satisfaction, graduation rates, learning outcomes, and student engagement are constantly and consistently improving, as measured by national comparative studies. During Dr. Kirk's tenure, eight intercollegiate athletic teams have been added, all campus residential students are issued laptop computers, and new technologies are employed online and at all teaching locations to enhance the teaching and learning environment.
Dr. Kirk places a high priority on community service, so the university sponsors a community service day each semester with hundreds of students, faculty, and staff volunteering their time at local charities. In addition, every athletic team engages in multiple service projects each year.
Dr. Kirk received his bachelor's degree in history and his master's degree in administration and supervision from Kean University in New Jersey. He earned his doctorate from Rutgers University. Dr. Kirk wrote his dissertation on small college survival strategies. He began his administrative career at Kean University where he served as assistant director of the Division of College Development and director of alumni affairs. He also served as director of Development and Planning for Raritan Valley Community College and directed the college's off-campus, non-credit and curriculum development programs. Dr. Kirk moved on to be executive vice president and chief financial officer of College Misericordia in northeastern Pennsylvania. In 1984 he was named president of Keuka College in upstate New York.

text: Here's a wild one -- webOS has been revived, and the suitor may surprise you. LG has reportedly lifted the troubled webOS unit from HP's hands, but instead of using it in future smartphones or tablets, it's planning to inject the operating system across its smart TV portfolio -- finally adding a layer of truth to a rumor we first spotted in October of last year. The deal includes the source code for webOS, "related documentation, engineering talent, and related webOS websites." Moreover, LG's procuring HP licenses for use with its webOS wares, not to mention patents that HP had originally gained from Palm. Not surprisingly, dollars and cents aren't being publicly discussed, but we'll be sure to clue you in on any more specifics as we get them.

February 12 Performance and Dinner Benefit Alexandria Black History Museum
Experience the true spirit of Black History Month with actor, scholar and activist Paul Robeson at the Carlyle Club in Alexandria! On Sunday, February 12, actors Hugh Staples and Michael Hill will bring Robeson to life in a special one-night performance of "Paul Robeson, A Play by Philip Dean Hayes" at the Carlyle Club (411 John Carlyle Street). A sumptuous dinner will begin at 5 p.m., followed at 7:30 p.m. by the 90-minute show. After the performance, Mr. Staples and Mr. Hill will answer questions from the audience. The snow date is Sunday, February 19.
This play, directed by Cody Jones, follows Paul Robeson (1898-1976) from his youth in New Jersey through his adult years as he traveled the world. An All-American athlete and a graduate of Columbia Law School, Robeson negotiated a complicated system of racism as he spoke out against the injustices he witnessed. Fighting for civil rights and labor causes, he triumphed in the midst of adversity that turned him into a modern-day martyr.
Tickets for the play and dinner are $65 per person. Tickets for the play only are $30 per person with limited seating in the bar. Reservations are required and can be made by calling the Carlyle Club at 703.548.8899 or by booking online at www.thecarlyleclub.com. Proceeds benefit educational programming at the Alexandria Black History Museum.
For more information, contact the Alexandria Black History Museum by calling 703.746.4356 or visiting www.alexblackhistory.org.

Amyloidosis refers to a group of disorders in which protein fibers are deposited in tissues and organs, harming them.[1] AL amyloidosis, also known as primary systemic amyloidosis, is the most common form of amyloidosis.[2] It refers specifically to cases of amyloidosis where the deposits contain bits of immunoglobulin light chain.[3][4] Signs and symptoms depend on the organs affected by the deposits, which may include the tongue, intestines, skeletal and smooth muscles, joints, nerves, skin, ligaments, heart, liver, spleen, and kidneys. AL amyloidosis is related to the plasma cell disorder multiple myeloma. Treatment may include chemotherapy directed at the abnormal plasma cells or stem cell transplantation.[1]

UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN River Falls
Fraternity and Sorority Life plays an integral part of an undergraduate students' development and learning. Programming aimed in the areas of service, academics, social networking and leadership development are encompassed in this lifetime commitment and experience.
Our national organizations housed at UWRF provide support and education to all of their members, annual conferences, tuition scholarships for both undergraduate and graduate work and various leadership positions that take place before and after a student graduates.
Research shows that extracurricular involvement is directly correlated to student success at the collegiate level (Astin, 1991) and it is estimated that 70% of what the college student learns while on campus takes place outside of the classroom (Kuh, 1995). Fraternity men and sorority women were founded to spend more time taking part in extracurricular activities and service/volunteer opportunities (Asel, Seifert and Pascarella, 2009).

A Message to our Customers
Today MySpace made the decision to prevent Photobucket users from posting their videos and remixes to their MySpace pages.
This action by MySpace means that all of the videos and remixes you created will no longer show up on your MySpace profile, blog and comments section. More specifically, if you attempt to add new videos or remixes to your profile, they will be removed.
We are not happy about this and we're pretty sure you're not happy either. We appreciate that you have invested hundreds of thousands of hours using the editing, remixing and management tools and features available only on Photobucket. In particular, you've all been really embracing videos at Photobucket -- to the tune of 50,000 video uploads a day, which is great. Rest assured that your content is being kept safe in your Photubucket album even though it may disappear from your MySpace pages.
We believe that by limiting your ability to personalize your pages with content from any source, MySpace is contradicting the very belief of personal and social media. MySpace became successful because of the creativity of you, its users, and because it offered a forum for self-expression. By severely restricting this freedom, MySpace is showing that it considers you as a commodity which it can treat as it sees fit.
Stupid Myspace...Photobucket isnt the first they bannnch:

BCI-hinting-enabled libfreetype PET packages
Sub_title: Fonting supremacy for some but not all Puppies
This is a fonting improvement which works on some, but not all, Puppies. Where it works, it works very very well. But it costs 660 kilobytes before expansion, 2 megabytes after (I kept in the headers in case you want to compile things that depend on libfreetype), and so I suggest that, before you try these pets, first go
and see if iguleder's simple change brings your fonting up to greatness.
Several Puppy users have advised that my screen fonting improvement procedure (
) is too complicated. Here is an attempt to put it within reach.
First, please understand that you *must* go read
. The subject of that webpage is the world's best method of screen font rendering, called "BCI hinting." Apple owns the patents. What these patents mean is, you are legally prohibited from giving yourself supreme perfect fonting, by installing one of the attached PET packages and following the three easy after-install steps, unless you either:
a) own the relevant BCI hinting license from Apple,
b) live in a country where none of the patents apply,
c) otherwise comply with Apple's legal intellectual property rights.
So: by installing one of the attached PET packages, you hereby promise, affirm, aver, avow, allege and cross-your-heart-'n'-hope-to-die, that you meet one of the above criteria. I am not responsible if you don't.
The attached PET packages do two things:
1. Installs a version of libfreetype which supports BCI hinting on fonts which can use it (which is, most TrueType and OpenType fonts).
2. Installs modified versions of the fonting configuration files /etc/fonts/font.conf and /etc/fonts/local.conf.
These PET package are designed to be uninstallable, but should be considered experimental, so the usual caveats apply. Back up everything before you try these. I am not responsible for whatever happens.
During the early weeks of release of these packages, it was discovered that boxpup-413, if running with XVesa as the X server, loses its native screencapture ability if a bci libfreetype .pet is installed. Uninstalling the .pet does not bring back the screencapture ability.
Therefore, provisionally, I am specifying these PET's only for use with Puppies running the XOrg X server. Try them on XVesa if you dare, but expect problems. Report back if you have success.
Plain black = on my agenda to create.

If you don't see it, feel free to ask for it!--that is, if you will PM me with a request to supply a PET package for your version, I will put it on my agenda to create, and post the link to it here, as I have time to fulfill the requests.

Sub_title: The three easy after-install steps
**Update: previously I was recommending that you change layout.css.dpi in Seamonkey to 96. I have since learned, that was a mistake. If you did so, change it back to its original value of -1, and then try 0, and see which works better.***
Users of the Opera browser
, before doing these three easy after-install steps, should open an Opera tab, go to about:config, and in the "Quick Find" box enter
In the User Prefs --> Force DPI box, change the value (on my system, it was 96) to 0 (zero), Save. This forces Opera to render using the correct X settings, and will prevent Opera from opening at odd places on the screen after the three easy steps are completed.
After you install the bci PET package for your Puppy version, Menu --> Shutdown --> Restart X server. Then...
1. Open an rxvt window and issue the command
xdpyinfo | grep 'dimensions:'
Write down the nnn x nnn millimeters values.
Now open /etc/X11/xorg.conf as text, scroll down to a place that looks like the code snippet below (your Monitor section may look slightly different, and may not have a DisplaySize line):
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
VendorName "Monitor Vendor"
ModelName "Monitor Model"
HorizSync 31.5-48.5
VertRefresh 40-70
DisplaySize 433 347
and create a DisplaySize line that matches the width x height values shown by xdpyinfo. For example, if xdpyinfo shows 433x347 millimeters, you would make the line
DisplaySize 433 347
2. Edit the two files /root/.XDefaults and /root/.Xresources. If there is a line that says
Xft.dpi: 75
(value may vary), delete it.
Now in rxvt issue the command
xdpyinfo | grep 'resolution:'
and you will see something like
resolution: 101x108 dots per inch
Now edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and, just under the DisplaySize line you created in Step 1, add this line (with your own values, of course):
Option "DPI" "101 x 108"
Note: if you use Menu --> Desktop -->Set global font size you will add an Xft.dpi setting to either /root/.Xdefaults or /root/.Xresources.
3. The /etc/fonts/local.conf which the PET package gives you, has subpixel rendering turned on. This improves fonting on LCD and TFT monitors. But if you use a CRT monitor, you want subpixel rendering turned off. To turn it off, open /etc/fonts/local.conf as text, scroll down to the line (line 16 in the current version)
<edit name="rgba" mode="assign"><const>rgb</const></edit>
and change it to read
<edit name="rgba" mode="assign"><const>none</const></edit>
Now restart X, and you should have almost the full font improvements as described in my original thread. The only thing lacking, as compared to my full instructions...is, you might not have perfect gamma balance. However, the vast majority of modern monitors don't need it.
May your eyes be pleased,

Sub_title: Fontpack PET packages
Some font packs. These are all more-or-less free, depending. Each of these PET packages, when you install it, will bring up the default browser or text editor with the relevant EULA or license; by downloading these, you agree to either comply with the license or else uninstall the PET.
Note: Users of the OpenBox window manager should not use these;
instead, use the fontpacks I have posted along with the bci PET for 413-r1 or 421-retro.
For Puppies other than with OpenBox:
The Microsoft Core Webfonts, released in 1996 to the public, this is the last version:
size: 6112 KB
07a7a4d117741f93dabd6ef8609e4a90 microsoft-core-ttf-webfonts-0.0.1.pet
The full DejaVu fontset, version 2.29 from SourceForge. Puppy's default fonts are a small subset of these:
size: 4469 KB
9da6062be7b92af3de3fdc8f38d4ace1 dejavu-ttf-fonts-0.2.29.pet
In my judgment the above two, and maybe the URW fonts below, are all you need for just browsing the news. For a good selection of eye-candy fonts, see
this thread
. For more of the ho-hum types of fonts, in case you wish to experiment:
The Liberation fontset from Red Hat:
size: 988 KB
bb670d8070e0ea013424f4ec0a63f105 liberation-ttf-fonts-1.0.4.pet
The Linux Libertine fontset:
size: 4328 KB
bd89474accbc0696650dac77cf91f681 linux-libertine-ttf-fonts-4.4.1.pet
The Luxi fontset:
size: 474 KB
814c68ed8cf17bb2b3cd00abb22429e3 luxi-ttf-fonts-0.1.2.pet
The MgOpen fontset:
size: 874 KB
7e148881bb31cb8098a313e618ed5af3 mgopen-ttf-fonts-0.0.1.pet
The URW free ttf versions of its Ghostscript fonts:
size: 5030 KB
67eb35a1f4eba177965ae86f264ff294 urw-ttf-fonts-0.1.41.pet
OK, that oughta getcha on your way...

For BoxPup, do not install any of the fontpacks posted above. At the moment I have converted only two, the Microsoft Core Webfonts and the full DejaVu set. If people want more fontpack PETs converted for suitability with 413-boxpup-r1, PM me.
DejaVu full fontset for puppy413-boxpup-r1:

390eb17942a3c8492b913b4d0fee3996 mswebfonts-boxpup-r1-4.1.3.pet
Restart X (or reboot) after installing the fontpacks, so that the font cache gets updated.
In Opera 10.00 beta, try these settings in
Tools --> Preferences --> Web Pages:
Normal font: DejaVu sans (unknown) size 13
Monospace font: Andale Mono size 13
Advanced --> Fonts:
Browser Menus: Verdana bold, size 12
Web Page Normal Text: DejaVu Sans (unknown), min size 13.
Window titles are set in OpenBox Configuration Manager, the screenshot shows Lucida Sans Unicode, size 14.
If you install the MS Core and DejaVu fontpacks, you have around 20 new fonts to play with in Tools --> Preferences --> Advanced --> Fonts. Let me know if you find any particularly good combinations.
Before you do the three easy after-install steps in the second post in this thread, open an Opera tab, go to about:config, and in the "Quick Find" box enter
In the User Prefs --> Force DPI box, change the value (on my system, it was 100) to 0 (zero), Save. This forces Opera to render using the correct X settings, however, unlike version 9.63, Opera 10.00 beta still does sometimes open at odd places on the screen.

Sit Heel Speak,
I've been having some difficulties on my end (using boxpup 413)... the MS Core Webfonts and full DejaVu fonts PET's install without complaint, but I can no longer take a screenshot of my system after installing bci-k220.127.116.11-boxpup-4.1.3.pet.
Thought it might have something to do with setup files left over in /root/.packages (per your Boxpup 413r1 comments), but Boxpup 413 has no such directory. (Oops! See edit, a couple of lines down in this post.)
The bci-k184.108.40.206-boxpup-4.1.3.pet, by the way, does look like it installs -- and uninstalls via the Puppy package manager.
EDIT: The /root/.packages directory is there, it was a hidden file. However, no files named bci-boxpup... remain there after uninstalling.
If I can get the screenshot function back (with bci-k22.214.171.124-boxpup-4.1.3.pet still installed), I would gladly post a before and after image. Suggestions?

Right click anywhere on the Boxpup 413 desktop. The screen shot function is the third option down under the Utility menu. (See attachment.)

Hi Roy,
Try this one:
File name: bci-k184.108.40.206-v2-boxpup-4.1.3.pet

810a7bbaaa921f75d753ce0b2a6e7866 bci-k126.96.36.199-v2-boxpup-4.1.3.pet
(***edited, some text deleted by poster***)
I don't know which screenshot-taker you are using. The way I gave OpenBox (***edited: using XOrg. The screenshot-taker in Boxpup-413 doesn't work, under XOrg, only XVesa ***) the ability to take
this screenshot
the OpenBox way was:
1. Use Puppy Package Manager to install xorg_xorg_full_dri-7.3 (X libraries are necessary for compile of imlib2)
2. Download imlib2 source to /root/Downloads and unpack, shift into the unpack folder:
3. Compiled imlib2 the usual way:
./configure --prefix=/usr --build=i486-t2-linux-gnu
make install
4. Download giblib source to /root/Downloads, extract it, shift into the unpack folder:
--compiled using same sequence as for imlib2
5. Download and unpack the scrot .gz, from muggins, found it at
6. Worked scrot into the OpenBox menu thanks to the advice at
except, I configured scrot to take .png not .jpg screencaptures. Open /root/.config/openbox/menu.xml and Find "snapshot" --change it to read
<item label="Screen Snapshot">
<!-- <action name="Execute"><execute>ob_screenshot</execute></action> -->
<!-- <action name="Execute"><execute>scrot -q 100 -d 1 screenshot-%F-%H%M%S.jpg</execute></action> -->
<action name="Execute"><execute>scrot -q 100 -d 1 screenshot-%F-%H%M%S.png</execute></action>
This configures scrot to have a 1-second delay, picture quality 100%, it saves a timestamped .png capture to /root.

Sorry, Sit Heel Speak. Your updated bci-k220.127.116.11-v2-boxpup-4.1.3.pet broke Boxpup 413's native Screen Snapshot function again and I don't have the private bandwidth to download the items required to compile and re-add the function.
I did confirm, however, that the files you mentioned in you post above are indeed on my system after .pet installation and reboot. The text Success Notification points to this thread, but references the above post specified for Opera users.
EDIT: I am afraid this .pet did not cleanly uninstall; my Screen Snapshot function did not return following the .pet removal via the Package Manager and a reboot. Perhaps someone with unlimited bandwidth can jump in here?

Hi Roy,
Please bear with me here a bit longer; I'm not out of questions yet. Gracious of you to apologize, but no need!--I'm the one who is trying to be the guru, so if I'm not "gu" enough then I'm the one who climbs the rope!
One clue remains to be considered: from your information I infer that, for you, on a fresh install of Boxpup, the screencap utility works. But the screencap utility
does not
work on a fresh install for me. Not even before applying my .pet. So, I was presuming that it doesn't work for you either, and therefore mistakenly thought you must have installed an "aftermarket" one.
So I'm trying to figure out now...in what possible way could the libs that handle fonting...have a conflict with a utility that captures the screen? The only thing they have in common is, they both address video.
What handles video, and what both are making calls into, is the X server. So I think there must be some difference between the X servers that you and I are using. Perhaps if we can identify the crucial difference(s) between the X servers we use, then that may suggest the solution to this baffling problem.
So, my questions at this point are:
I've been choosing XOrg. Are you, by chance, choosing XVesa?
(***edited, a few minutes later: I am posting this edit from a fresh coexist install of boxpup-413, I chose XVesa, and,...well good night nurse, whaddya know...heh...openbox screen capture works.***)
(***edited, posting this edit from xvesa boxpup again. I have just tried installing the pet-compiled-under-xorg, on boxpup-413-xvesa, and, while the install goes smoothly, sure enough, the ability to screencapture is lost.
I will shortly compile bci-libfreetype in this boxpup, with xvesa, and if it works OK on my machine running boxpup-xvesa, will post that. I hope, Roy, you will be game for one more test flight...

Hi Roy,
I have bad news. Or, good news maybe...depending on how eager (or reluctantly willing, or unwilling
) you were, to make one more test flight...
I have compiled bci libfreetype under a fresh install of boxpup-413 with xvesa chosen as the X server.
The resultant libs are identical to the ones obtained by compiling under xorg:
Size of bci-hinting-enabled libfreetype.so.6.3.20 compiled under xvesa, after strip -g .......511 K
# md5sum libfreetype.so.6.3.20
d15fee823d83dd0db5f62bcd4aec6b8a libfreetype.so.6.3.20
Size of bci-hinting-enabled libfreetype.so.6.3.20 compiled under xorg, after strip -g .......511 K
# md5sum libfreetype.so.6.3.20
d15fee823d83dd0db5f62bcd4aec6b8a libfreetype.so.6.3.20
So, I've learned two things:
1. It doesn't matter what the X libs set is, i.e. whether running under XOrg or XVesa. libfreetype compiles identically under either version of X server. I did not know that before.
2. There is at least one Puplet, yours, on which it is simply not possible to run bci-hinting-enabled libfreetype if the XVesa X server is chosen.
This is a good lesson and I'm glad I learned it. I don't know yet whether it is true as a general rule, that no Puppy will run BCI-enhanced libfreetype under XVesa, or if this shortcoming is true only of some Puppies.
Anyway, thanks for trying. You still get a one-sixth share of 10% of any profit I make from it. Plus an extra 10% sportsmanship bonus
So...I will go ahead and start populating the list. But, thanks to your testing, I now know enough to give them names like
so that I don't get deluged with complaints when people try to use it with xvesa!
Best regards,

The Divisions of Soft Tissue Surgery and Hyperbaric Medicine at the R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center (STC) treat a large number of patients with complex soft tissue infections and chronic non-healing wounds.. During their 3rd clinical year, the Sinai resident will spend four weeks on that service. This rotation is designed to expose the resident to the management of extensive (necrotizing) soft tissue infections in complex, multi-morbid and morbidly obese patients, including operative debridement, reconstruction, ICU management, hyperbaric oxygen therapy and outpatient wound clinic. The rotation follows, in a natural progression, the Trauma rotation at the STC, so that the resident does not have to relearn the infrastructure of the institution and, therefore, competency-based learning is maximized.
During the rotation, the resident will participate in the following educational activities:
Resident core curriculum in Trauma and Critical Care: daily, one hour
Morbidity and mortality conference in Trauma: weekly, one hour
Trauma/Critical Care Grand Rounds: weekly, one hour (combined with General Surgery Grand Rounds)
During the rotation, the resident will participate in the following educational activities:

He's Portuguese.
He played for United.
He plays the way I love to see football played.
Was born in the same area I was born.
My gramp was friends with his father.
It was destiny that I would be his number one fan. If he ever plays for Porto I may just marry him.
