AFRICA needs to do more to achieve economic development, eradicate poverty, and receive its fair share of the world tourism economy, Minister of Tourism and Hospitality Walter Mzembi has said. Speaking at the Seventh Africa Travel Association's annual presidential forum on tourism held at the New York University last week, Minister Mzembi said tourism would assist in eradicating conflicts.
The event was attended by tourism ministers from Namibia, Tanzania, Gambia and Zambia, among other countries. Also present were senior representatives from the Africa Development Bank, African Union, Global Partnerships Forum, and UN World Tourism Organisation. The meeting discussed the benefits of tourism in relation to the economy, environment and people.
"A focused ATA in partnership with the African Union, and in affiliation with the UNWTO, will play its part in ensuring that Africa benefits more from this increasingly important sector.
Minister Mzembi said tourism could contribute positively to peace and stability.
"Tourism is a form of 'people-to-people' diplomacy, in which it enables political engagement, even when states are unengaged.
"Tourism not only leaves a window or a door open but it opens a whole corridor for engagement when political diplomacy fails us."
Zambia Tourism and Arts Minister Mrs Sylvia Masebo said the UNWTO General Assembly would leave a legacy for Zimbabwe and Zambia.
"The two countries are committed to the uniquely African UNWTO General Assembly in 2013, which will leave a long-term legacy for our two countries," she said.
She said Zambia was preparing for the international event, particularly in the areas of marketing, infrastructure, security, and private sector engagement. African Development Bank's Vice President, Professor Mthuli Ncube said more resources needed to be channelled into the tourism sector.
"There is the need to allocate resources to tourism development and the time for Africa's growth is now. Africa is on the cusp of sustainable growth and tourism is an integral part of this," said Prof Ncube.
Zimbabwe and Zambia co-sponsored the ATA forum through the Zimbabwe Tourism Authority and the Zambian Tourism Board. The two countries will in August next year play host to the UNWTO general assembly in Victoria Falls.

As the distribution of 1.2 million long lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) commenced in Abia State, the federal government has reiterated that its long term strategy in the war against mosquito was total elimination of the malaria scourge in Nigeria.
Over 5, 000 personnel have been mobilised and trained for effective distribution of the nets across the 17 Local Governments of Abia with each household to receive two nets in order to improve the use of LLINs, which the state Commissioner for Health, Dr Okechukwu Ogah, described as "abysmally low" presently.
But Abia State Governor, Chief Theodore Orji, said that his administration has earmarked N39 million to ensure the success of the universal coverage campaign on scaling up long lasting insecticidal nets (LLINS) distribution in Abia State.
Represented by the deputy governor, Chief Emeka Ananaba, Orji said that the health care of Abians was among the top priorities of his government, which has been demonstrated through the provision of modern health facilities across the state, adding that the state government was deeply involved in efforts to eliminate the malaria scourge in the land and has earmarked N39 million for the campaign.
Minister of Health, Dr. Onyebuchi Chukwu, who was in Umuahia to witness the flag-off campaign, declared that "we shall intensify our efforts towards the elimination of malaria".
He said that the distribution of the nets was just a stop gap in the long term strategy of making the country malaria free, which would involve "taking the fight to mosquito" by killing not only the adult vector but also stopping it from breeding by killing off the larvae at source.
"We are determined to accelerate and intensify efforts to achieve elimination of the disease in the country," he said, adding "In this regard, we are mobilising everybody to be part of this effort to eliminate malaria".

News Update: User Feedback Now a Factor in Google Rankings
Posted By Sarah On April 13, 2011 @ 4:15 pm In News Update | 1 Comment
Unless you've been hiding in a cave with no Internet connection, I'm sure by now the news of Google's latest algorithm update, dubbed Panda, is old hat. Perhaps you have also already caught wind of Google's addition of the +1 button [1], which is the search engine equivalent to Facebook's "like" feature. Furthermore, Google has created two new ways for searchers to block sites from their search results. Chrome users can add an extension [2] to allow them to block sites, and Google has reinstated a block link directly in search results.
Despite the fact that Google initially shrugged off implications of the +1 button and block features on future algorithm configuration, I'm sure it will come as no surprise that they recently announced that this type of user feedback is now a factor in rankings. This comes on the heels of Panda's international release. While Google states that user feedback is a secondary factor in ranking scores, mostly serving as validation for poor quality content already flagged by Panda, I don't see this as a negative for advertisers or SEO professionals.
Many people have critiqued the Panda update, but I think this interaction with searchers provides some ease of mind in creating a system of checks and balances. As a searcher you have the ability to confirm poor quality sites, or conversely boost good content. As Vanessa Fox points out in her article on Search Engine Land [3], when Google launched Panda and used blocked search data as validation that their algorithm changes were on target, they found an 84% overlap in sites that were flagged negatively by Panda and sites that users had blocked.
In the end, there is no work around to providing good content and well-run campaigns. If Google's intention is to give searchers the best experience possible, then these changes sound on par to me, and any growing pains in the process will be worth it in the long haul.
Have you seen any effects of these changes on your site or campaigns? Let us know in the comments below!

With Kolb it's all about control
We all want control in our lives. What person do you know that proclaims his or her undying gratitude for their life spinning out of control? Control can be pathological for some and complicated for others but never rejected by mainstream America. Control, not greed, is good.
Kevin Kolb seems to be trying to manipulate the system, the system that currently doesn't exist in the NFL but will one day in the not so distant future.
Kolb is a quarterback with great promise. He is highly thought of by many NFL pro-personnel scouts, coaches, players and general managers. He has received high marks from men I have grown to trust. Their opinions and thoughts have been proven reliable over years of conversation.
According to most, Kevin Kolb is ready to light up the league like a Taser in a trailer-park.
According to league sources, Kolb's agents are holding the Taser: they're seeking a multi-year deal from any team that acquires him with a price tag that scares many NFL decision-makers. Kolb wants his money.
It scares NFL executives because Kolb has only started 7-games in 4-years. He is a relative unknown, a guy that needs to prove himself before he gets the tag of "franchise quarterback."
The new CBA currently being negotiated/litigated will include a rookie wage scale that no longer discourages NFL teams from drafting a quarterback in the top 10. Teams will be able to draft a quarterback and develop him without forcing him into action because he's getting paid huge money and needs to play.
In addition, the franchise will no longer be hamstrung for the next 5 or 6-years if said quarterback sucks buttermilk. The NFL and the "Trade Association" appear to be congruent in their thinking: the players that have shown they can play in the league should get the money, not kids coming out of college that have not played a single down of NFL football.
Having only started 7-games in 4-years, Kevin Kolb is in a bigger boat than unproven rookie quarterbacks but he's sailing on the same stormy sea of suspicion; he's a quarterback commodity in a quarterback market with a quarterback model that is dissipating before player-agent's eyes.
So why would Kevin Kolb and his people try to capitalize on an archaic system? Why would they send the messengers out with a warning to interested NFL teams, letting them know they will seek security and big money for years to come?
So they can eliminate would-be suitors that need not apply. So they can mitigate the situation.
If you don't have a great receiver with a proven track record in a controlled climate run by an offensive-minded head coach in a city Mr. Kolb wants to play in, you will have to pay through-the-nose. But if you have a great receiver with a proven track record in a controlled climate run by an offensive-minded head coach in a city Mr. Kolb wants to play in, we should talk. Mr. Kolb might be inclined to be more reasonable.
"This is not allowed," you scream! "Teams can't talk to players or make deals for players during the lockout/litigation! How would teams know Mr. Kolb would be more reasonable? They can't talk with his people," you say with fire and gross indignation!
Well�Mr. Kolb's agent might happen to know a guy named Frank. Frank works down at the coffee shop and has a brother named John. John, whom has always looked down on Frank, works as a scout in the NFL. John likes where he lives and works and Mr. Kolb feels the same way about where John lives and works. Go figure.
Mr. Kolb's agent tells Frank, Frank tells John and John tells his boss.
This is an intentionally absurd example but there are ways to send out messages that do not include direct contact with NFL decision-makers, right? There are minions, pawns in the grand scheme of things that will do the king's bidding.
So what is the price of prosperity? What might Mr. Kolb be had for?
Think Matt Schaub. The similarities are eye-opening. Schaub had started 2-games in 3-years. The Houston Texans traded for Schaub in 2007. Atlanta dealt him for two second-round picks and a swap of first-rounders. Schaub immediately received a 6-year, $48 million contract of which only $7 million was guaranteed. But this contract was not without incentive: there was a $10 million option bonus due at the halfway point of the contract. And this was under the old, archaic pay-before-play system that is vanishing like the many clouds in the Kingdom of Potential Before Production.
But this is not the standard Mr. Kolb and his people are adhering to; this is an outrage to Mr. Kolb!
Unless, of course, you have a great receiver with a proven track record in a controlled climate run by an offensive-minded head coach in a city Mr. Kolb wants to play in.
Just ask Frank.

Hello my friends, I hope you all are having a great day. I don't have a card for you today, here has been a little bit crazy. First, we had a mouse in our house and I did freak out. I don't like those critters at all. Then my daughter started feeling sick, she is complaining her throat hurts, she can scream loud, so I don't think it is an infection, but just in case I need to keep an eye on her and I wasn't feeling too motivated to stamp or do anything. I am still working on my garden when the weather allows me to, but other than that I think the cloudy days are affecting my mojo.
Anyways, yesterday I received a card from Theresa Momber, Yess!!!!! She does such a beautiful work. I got this card from a new thread on Stamp TV called " Send a card, Receive a Card", it is fun and I think it's always good to receive a beautiful handmade artwork.
So, here is the card Theresa sent me:
I hope I can get some stamping time tonight.
Have a blessed day!

Shell Helix Ultra And Shell Helix HX7 Exceed API SN
Performance That Exceeds The API SN Specification
The API SN specification has been designed to meet the needs of the latest vehicles, and an engine oil that carries this specification must undergo engine testing to ensure that it
- withstands oxidation and degradation, so it does not thicken or cause deposits
- flows, even when it has been used in the engine and when temperatures are extremely low
- protects the engine against wear and corrosion
- protects against piston deposits and sludge to help ensure the engine stays clean.
To meet the latest API SN specification, new products must attain higher levels of performance, such as for engine cleanliness, compared with the previous API SM performance standard. In addition, engine oils that meet API SN must demonstrate compatibility with certain engine seals to help to prevent oil leaks.
The performance of Shell Helix Ultra and Shell Helix HX7 is tested well beyond that required by the new API specification. We commission extensive tests to prove that Shell Helix Ultra and Shell Helix HX7 can actually clean a dirty car engine, and we subject the oils to thousands of kilometres of road tests.
Shell Helix Ultra and Shell Helix HX7 also exceed the requirements of the stringent ACEAA3/B4 and the demanding car manufacturers' specifications.

Even before Alex Rodriguez hit that dramatic ninth-inning home run to carry the New York Yankees past the Orioles and back into first place in the American League East on Friday night, manager Buck Showalter was trying to keep the one-sided rivalry from becoming a referendum.
It's way too early for that.
The Yankees may be the yardstick by which lesser teams measure both pain and gain, but Showalter quickly rattled off the names of the other teams in the division and pointed out that all of them are higher than the O's on the competitive food chain — not just the Yankees.

Rachel McAdams on Ex Ryan Gosling: It's "Great" He's a Feminist Icon
Rachel McAdams famously dated Canadian heartthrob Ryan Gosling for four years, from 2004-2008. Of McAdams and his other ex Sandra Bullock, Gosling once told The Times UK, "I had two of the greatest girlfriend of all time. I haven't met anybody who could top them." Cue collective "aww"-ing.
Now, McAdams tells Glamour she think it's "great" Gosling has become a "huge feminist icon", but adds that on-set romances (like McAdam and Gosling's alleged fling on The Notebook set) are not a good idea. "A set may seem like a good place for romance, but I don't think it's very conducive; it's too distracting," McAdams explains.
Ryan once told GQ Magazine: "God bless The Notebook. It introduced me to one of the great loves of my life. But people do Rachel and me a disservice by assuming we were anything like the people in that movie. Rachel and my love story is a hell of a lot more romantic than that."
Again with the "awww"! God bless Ryan Gosling for bringing chivalry back. We'll take this time to admit that we still miss Ryan and Rachel together! Do you wish these two would get back together?

Von Goertz retires from advertising
Duluth, MN: Paul von Goertz, long time local advertising agency executive, retired at the end of May after a 50-year advertising career. Von Goertz began his career as a 17-year old "Office Boy" for the H. E. Westmoreland Advertising Agency in 1963. While attending UMD, he was the Advertising Manager for the UMD STATESMAN during the school year, and worked in both retail and classified advertising sales for the Duluth News Tribunes during the summer months.
In 1966, after serving active duty in the United States Coast Guard, he resumed his career in advertising agency work, working for a total of five agencies, which included 30 years as founder and partner in Von Goertz & VanHove, Inc.
He is retiring from the Giant Voices marketing agency, owned by Pascha Apter and Lisa Bodine. "Paul's advertising experience and business savvy will be difficult to replace. It has been a pleasure to work with him over the course of the last 10 years," commented Pascha Apter, CEO.

Reviews for Chocolate Chip Muffins
Sort By :
"These are easy to make and my kids love them. Chocolate chip is not my favorite, but these are light, fluffy, and chocolatey! A great recipe for kids to make on their own, too."
"First of all, it really bugs me when people lower the ratings based on their alterations to the recipe.So I followed this recipe exactly as it reads. It has a fantastic biscuit flavor. I sent a batch to work with my husband!My advice, try the recipe first then alter as needed. :)"
"Yeah, these were very weird on every level. If you are looking for a fluffy light muffin, this is not the recipe for you! But my kids gobbled them up and they didn't take very long to make. If I was short on time, I would probably make these again."
"Is it me or do these taste like cornbread/biscuits with chocolate chips. I really wish I didn't follow this recipe. Now I have a plate of wasted ingredients."
"Didn't even waste time putting these in oven. Batter was sticky and gross"

Set in colonial Australia during the 1840s, and invoking narratives of exploration from that time, Voss encompasses an extensive range of references: historical (but also, by implication, contemporary), stylistic and, covertly, autobiographical. Although the novel's narration is distanced by irony throughout, White's attribution of its conception to his experiences of the Middle-Eastern deserts during the second World War—the war he later described in his autobiographical essay "The Prodigal Son" ( Australian Letters 1,1958. p. 39) as being against the "arch megalomaniac" Hitler—and also to his reading the journals and accounts of early Australian explorers after his …

I. Introduction: Insurance Products for Cyber Risks
Increasing reports of cyber intrusions, data theft and computer system malfunctions have led a rapidly-growing number of companies to purchase insurance coverage to protect themselves from technology and cyber privacy risks. Indeed, as our technology-driven economy continues to evolve and businesses become more reliant on electronic communication and data storage, they are developing a heightened awareness that an unauthorized intrusion could endanger their tangible and intangible assets (including their intellectual property) and, in many cases, their reputations and abilities to conduct business. As such, prospective policyholders are becoming more cognizant of the necessity for insurance covering such growing exposures.
Still, there is significant uncertainty about the nature and scope of insurance products which might cover a company's technology and cyber privacy risks, whether the entity is in the technology space or in a vertical that uses technology to run its business operations. While businesses and their insurance brokers typically are knowledgeable about insurance policies covering traditional general and professional liability exposures, today's online-society introduces new dynamics, many of which are not covered under traditional general and professional liability policy forms. The growing number of technology and cyber products offered throughout the global insurance markets highlights the importance of the insurance brokerage community and the value of a sophisticated broker who can perform a thorough analysis of a policyholder's insurance needs, and who can work with underwriters to obtain and tailor insurance policies to meet those needs.
Many policyholders are surprised to learn that a standard CGL policy likely would not apply to a technology or cyber privacy claim, notwithstanding that the form typically includes coverage for "property damage" and "personal and advertising injury." More surprisingly, some insurance brokers are not aware of a CGL policy's limitations or their clients' needs for a comprehensive multi-line insurance program. But, such is the nature of our changing society and a client's evolving insurance needs.
A. Cyber Risks as "Property Damage"
A typical CGL policy defines "property damage" as "physical injury to tangible property, including all resulting loss of use of that property." While it is well- and widely- known that this definition would apply to traditional property damage losses (such as those arising from fires, impaired property and the like) many policyholders and brokers, without due consideration, mistakenly take it for granted that this definition also includes technology and cyber privacy losses involving intangible property such as electronic data. But, that is clearly not the case or the policy's intent. To emphasize this point, and to add a belt to the suspenders, some CGL policy forms specifically exclude electronic data from their definition of "property damage." In such policies, "electronic data" is generally defined as the "information, facts or programs stored as or on, created or used on, or transmitted to or from computer software." Despite this self-evident precept, some policyholders have elected to test this principle, arguing that "property damage" includes damage to computer software, information and data. And in most cases, they have lost.
In the most well-reasoned cases, the results were not surprising. For example, in America Online, Inc. v. St. Paul Mercury Insurance Co., 347 F.3d 89, 96 (4th Cir. 2003), the Fourth Circuit properly recognized that data, web pages and computer systems do not constitute tangible property because they are not capable of being touched, held or sensed by the human mind. As such, they were not "property damage," as that term is used in a CGL policy. The Eighth Circuit concurred with this self-evident proposition, holding in Eyeblaster, Inc. v. Federal Insurance Co., 613 F.3d 797, 802 (8th Cir. 2010), that a "complaint would have had to make a claim for physical injury to the hardware in order for [the policyholder] to have coverage for 'physical injury to tangible property'" under a general liability policy's "property damage" coverage.
Despite the inherent logic of these appellate decisions, one trial court, in dicta, endorsed a distorted view of "property damage," expanding its definition beyond the plain and ordinary language. In Am. Guar. & Liab. Ins. Co. v. Ingram Micro, Inc., No. 99-185, 2000 WL 726789 (D. Ariz. Apr. 18, 2000), the court considered whether a first-party property policy covered losses incurred after a power outage rendered the computer systems inoperable. The court purported to focus on the physical attributes of "bytes," as well as the particles and atoms that comprise a hard drive, in order to justify its result-oriented conclusion that the corruption of data constitutes "physical damage," as required by the policy. The Ingram Micro court rationalized its construct by hypothesizing that "[a]t a time when computer technology dominates our professional as well as our personal lives . . . 'physical damage' is not restricted to the physical destruction or harm of computer circuitry but includes loss of access, loss of use, and loss of functionality." Though the policy insured against "direct physical loss or damage," the court incorrectly conflated the phrases "physical damage" and "property damage" and held that the loss of programming information and network configurations "does allege property damage." The Ingram Micro decision is frequently cited by policyholder counsel seeking to argue away the realities of a CGL policy's limitation, despite the fact that the issues are presented in the context of a property damage policy. Not surprisingly, however, and for good reason, such counsel inevitably do not choose to litigate this issue.
B. Cyber Risks under Endorsements
Notwithstanding the "property damage" jurisprudence and plain old logic, certain CGL policy forms may expand the scope of their traditional coverages to include certain data losses. Because traditional CGL policies typically do not provide property coverage for technology and cyber privacy risks, insurance companies are marketing specific policies and endorsements with specialized forms of coverage. For example, there is an ISO form endorsement for use with CGL policies that provides coverage for loss and loss of use of electronic data resulting from physical injury to tangible property. Insurers also offer technology stretch, computers and media, and technology services coverage endorsements in combination with CGL policies.
C. Cyber Risks as "Personal and Advertising Injury"
Of course, this is not to say that a standard CGL policy may never apply to a cyber privacy claim. Indeed, many general liability policies include "personal and advertising injury" coverage which, in some cases, may subsume to certain portions of a cyber privacy event. The term "personal injury and advertising injury" typically is defined to include a list of enumerated offenses such as injury arising out of the infringement of another's copyright and the oral or written publication of material that slanders a person or organization, or violates a person's right to privacy.
In Netscape Communications Corp. v. Federal Insurance Co., 343 Fed. Appx. 271, 272 (9th Cir. 2009), the Ninth Circuit held that a CGL insurer providing "personal and advertising injury" coverage had a duty to defend where AOL was alleged to have intercepted and disseminated private online communications. The Netscape court found such claims implicated a person's right to privacy and thereby potentially triggered the policy's "personal and advertising injury" coverage section. In addition, in Zurich American Insurance Company v. Fieldstone Mortgage Co, No. CCB-06-2055, 2007 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 81570 (D. Md. Oct. 26, 2007), the court found that Zurich had a duty to defend against claims brought by individuals who received prescreened offers based on information contained in their consumer credit reports, allegedly in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The court held that even though the solicitations were not divulged to a third party and did not contain protected information, the solicitations constituted "publication" of material violating a person's right to privacy, in the context of an "advertising injury" policy provision.
II. Overlapping Coverage
Of course, the question of whether a CGL insurer has a duty to defend, or even a duty to indemnify, a technology and/or cyber privacy claim is not the only one which a policyholder — or a CGL insurer — may face. In many cases where a policyholder has obtained multiple policies covering multiple types of exposures and risks — as a proactive policyholder with a sophisticated insurance broker should — a CGL policy's coverage could overlap and converge with those provided by other insurance products. These include pure cyber and technology forms, third-party professional liability and directors and officers liability policies, and first-party and business interruption certificates. This situation will then present issues such as what damages are covered under what form (i.e., in the third-party context, damage to hardware may be covered under a CGL form policy while corresponding corruption of software may be covered under a technology policy), allocation of defense costs, the implications of "other insurance" clauses, and the scope of an insurer's duty to defend and/or pay defense costs under a pure indemnity policy.
III. Conclusion
In short, product-related and service-oriented businesses reliant on technology can — and should — take all reasonable steps to ensure that they have virtually seamless insurance coverage by working with sophisticated insurance brokers well-versed in the myriad policies and forms available to cover technology and cyber privacy risks. Just as our economy is quickly evolving, so too are the types of insurance products and coverage available to meet a policyholder's changing needs. Understanding the components of these new-age policies is critical, and prudent business executives should devote the necessary time and resources to identify a sophisticated insurance broker who can assess a company's vulnerabilities and ensure that the necessary insurance products are purchased. Having written such policies, and having worked with many brokers and underwriters, we can assure readers that the exercise will not be easy. But, it certainly will be worth it in the end.

Many people have read stories or seen television news coverage about the impact of combat experiences on soldiers, but actually hearing about them firsthand and understanding that impact is something totally different.
Helping people understand what military men and women go through in war is what five Mississippi State students hope to accomplish during three programs of "Telling: Starkville, Miss." this weekend.
Staged as part of the national Telling Project, the free public programs will be held at 6 p.m. today and Saturday and at 2 p.m. Sunday in the Bettersworth Auditorium at Lee Hall on campus.
Marcus Boykin, Michael Campbell, Lewis Howard, Chris Keane and Lamarris Williams will share their stories serving the nation in Iraq and Afghanistan with audiences.
"You cannot predict how trauma affects an individual. I've seen special ops guys go from being perfectly fine to having serious problems," said Campbell, an Army veteran who served combat deployments in Afghanistan in 2002 and Iraq in 2003. "You don't know how something will affect you until it happens."
Campbell should know. He lost a close friend, Sgt. Trevor Blumberg, in an IED (improvised explosive device) attack in Iraq.
Just a few weeks earlier, the two had been working to start an education program for their company at Fort Bragg, N.C., to help soldiers address personal and family issues as a result of combat and deployment.
"I have been 50 to 60 feet from a Humvee that hit an IED, and it bloodied my nose and fattened my lips," said Campbell, a founding member and the national president of the Student Veterans of America. "That's how hard you get hit by the concussion from the blast."
Those types of situations have been encountered by countless members of the armed forces in recent years, and getting those stories told is a huge part of what the Telling Project performances are about.
The performances at Lee Hall this weekend will be the 20th set across the nation in three years for the Telling Project, which was established in 2008.
Those veterans participating have gone through extensive interview, performance training and rehearsal to tell the stories of their lives to the community members in the audience.
The performance, Campbell says, deal with military members' perceptions prior to service, in basic training, in preparing for deployment, during combat and after they return home.
"This covers the full gamut of service from the perspectives of those who have not deployed to those who have and have come home," Campbell said.
Howard will be sharing his perspective as a Mississippi National Guardsman preparing for deployment.
Howard's Guard unit — the 111th Aviation in Meridian — is currently training a flight platoon to head to Afghanistan and a maintenance platoon to head to Iraq, both in August of 2011.
Howard will be deploying with one of those two platoons when they head overseas next summer.
Sharing his experiences about how his pending deployment is affecting his life and relationships is just one means of understanding the Telling Project seeks to create in its audiences, Howard said.
"I hope the community really enjoys it and learns something from it," Howard said.
The experience may prove quite moving for the audience, Howard said.
"We had a few people watching it the other day. My girlfriend said there were a few tears," he said.

Image > Flatten Layer Groups
Does exactly what you expect it to do. Every top-level layer group is merged (careful: only visible layers in each layer group are merged). The layer tree becomes completely flat. Why is this useful? Well, I made it because it is impossible to convert an image to Indexed mode or export it as animated GIF if it contains any layer groups. And layer groups are extremely useful for animated GIFs. It's a conundrum! And this script helps automate the process somewhat.
This script works just like the HSL adjustment Tool, but on indexed images. (I am using the same calculation Gimp uses.)
While it is relatively simple to convert in indexed image to RGB, use the HSL Tool, then convert back to an indexed image, the drawback is that the image colour index locations aren't preserved, and you need to know how many colours are in the original colormap.
This script provides the same HSL parameters and modifies the individual entries in the colourmap palette without changing the order.

Moonlighter. Buyers expect sufficient power for typical applications, low emissions and consumption rates and user-friendly ergonomics from an office laptop in the top-selling price range of around 400 Euros (~$532). Thus, a matte screen would have looked better in Acer's Aspire E1-522 while the installed DVD burner vaguely indicates multimedia suitability.

First Chinese counterfeit of iPhone HD/iPhone 4G -- attack of the next gen iClones!
Why must Chinese knock-offs use the ugliest fonts? That's what's holding them back...
China is such a joke.
Man that thing looks sweet...wish we had them in states
I'm thinking it might be hard for Apple to sue whoever simply because it's in China and the laws there might be different. I don't think Apple is that worried about that phone anyway. The antennae is a joke and although the design is ofcourse a knockoff does anyone else find it more boxy looking than the Apple version?
@wolf I don't think it's digital I know people who have phones from china and they all have analog tuners.
It's frustrating that China doesn't have to follow copyright and patent laws. This is the same country that indulges in industrial espionage without any recourse whatsoever. I would love for someone to attempt to explain to me why exactly China doesn't have to respect international copyright or patent laws. Then, explain to me why tech firms like Apple turn a blind eye and continue to build their products in Chinese factories.
@Jeff Higgins There are no international copyright laws. Only domestic/regional laws.
There are only laws that are legally binding for teheran domestic country.
Eg. If I have a copyrightt in Australia, but someone in America uses it, the laws are according to US laws and the US law of fare use applies however the Australian law of fair practice doesn't.
This is funny situation, though Apple has manufacturing unit in China, they don't sell apple product, and chinese companies are stabbing their back. This has to happen. It is a same situation like in Nigeria though there is so much oil, it is a poor country, they have no acces, but they hijack ships to make money and kill people.It is politics all the way! Shame on apple.
