DOG HEALTH So you have your new puppy picked out. There are quite a few shots, treatments and examinations that will keep the newest member of your family healthy.
DOG FUN Walking your dog is not only crucial to keeping him healthy and happy, it strengthens the bond between your canine friend and his caregiver. There are a lot of obstacles out there. Don't forget these simple tips to keep your walk fun and safe in the outside world.
HEALTH The same techniques that physiotherapists use to treat a variety of injuries and conditions in humans have been adapted to suit animals with great success. Family pets, show dogs, and working dogs can all benefit greatly from physiotherapy. Dogs whose activities involve a lot of agility are especially susceptible to the types of problems that physiotherapy can address.
FIRST TIME OWNERSBringing a dog into your family is a decision where many people don't realize it's magnitude until after they have the dog. There are a number of things that you need to research before you decide to purchase a dog, and it starts right in your own home.
HEALTH Many believe that a dog and a new baby cannot happily coexist, so therefore the dog has to go. This is not necessarily the case. A new baby does not mean you have to abandon your dog.
DOG TRAINING It's not enough to simply walk the dog through the front door and hope he will acclimate to his new surroundings; you have to teach him how to interact with the new people and items in his environment.
PET-NEWSWORTHY If you're considering adding a pet to your home in 2015, you're in very good company. As many as 71.4 million homes are expected to include a pet in 2015. According to the American Pet Product Association, pet families have increased from 56% of households in 1988 to 62% this year.
FIRST TIME OWNERS When you bring a new puppy into your home, it's a time of great excitement for everyone involved: you, your kids, your neighbors, and even the dog. Here's our guide on what to expect and how to handle the transition without losing your mind.

No, I don't think they can analyze a player's performance over the course of a season better than front office executives who spend all their time doing that. I don't think it is even remotely close and that doesn't even make sense to me.
An appeal to an authorify is a fallacy anyway. But if people are going to use that, though, then I'd take a front office execs opinion (and all the stats and scouts insight that comes with it) over what managers and players think. I don't see how that is even a debate- front office execs are just much smarter and more well informed about players performance; it's what they do and why GM's get paid millions of dollars.

VIEWS: 3 PAGES: 13 CATEGORY: Operating Systems POSTED ON: 6/12/2012 Public Domain
Ubuntu What is Ubuntu? Ubuntu is an open source and community developed operating system for desktops and servers. It is free to download and use and there are regular new releases and security updates. You can either download it from the Ubuntu website, or get a free CD shipped to you.1 'Ubuntu' is an African word meaning 'humanity to others', or 'I am what I am because of who we all are'.2 It is one of the founding principles of post- apartheid South Africa.3 This is also the spirit by which the Ubuntu software distribution operates. Even the colour of the default theme is inspired by this – it is, unusually, brown – supposedly a 'human' colour.4 The distribution is based on Linux, using the open source Debian GNU/Linux as a foundation.5 The purpose of Ubuntu, however, was to create 'Linux for human beings' – in other words, to make open source software a realistic option for everyone, regardless of their IT proficiency.6 An important aspect of this is the technical support Ubuntu provides. Users can get help from the Ubuntu community's range of documentation, chat, mailing lists, or users can purchase professional support from Canonical Ltd, the company which sponsors Ubuntu.7 Ubuntu began life in April 2004 when internet entrepreneur Mark Shuttleworth gathered together a group of open source developers to create a new Linux desktop. The first official release came in October 2004 with the code name 'Warty Warthog', and following releases had similarly alliterative, wildlife-inspired titles, such as 'Dapper Drake' or 'Feisty Fawn'.8 A number of official derivatives of Ubuntu are available, including Kutunu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu, each tailored for a different audience or desktop environment.9 Google has also created its own Linux distribution for the desktop based on Ubuntu – Goobuntu. There has been some speculation that Google might 1 http://www.ubuntu.com/products/WhatIsUbuntu 2 http://www.ubuntu.com/products/WhatIsUbuntu 3 Ben King, 'The entrepreneur who wants to give it all away', Financial Times, January 2006 4 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarkShuttleworth 5 http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/dserveredition 6 Ben King, 'The entrepreneur who wants to give it all away', Financial Times, January 2006 7 http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/desktopedition 8 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory 9 http://www.canonical.com/projects ultimately be intending to enter the OS market through development of this derivative.10 Shuttleworth made a considerable fortune in the dot-com era, selling his internet consultancy, Thwate, in 1999 for half a billion dollars and founded HBD Venture Capital and The Shuttleworth Foundation.11 12 He is probably best known for his space mission in April 200213 and has spent around $25 million on Ubuntu so far, hiring top-quality open source developers and negotiating with computer manufacturers to begin shipping their PCs with Ubuntu.14 He claims to have launched the Ubuntu project because he believes in the open source ethic – the venture is not a money-making exercise - telling the Financial Times, "It is not a sensible business model. But shaping the digital platform of the future is an incredibly interesting position to be in."15 Developers who dislike the increasing commercialisation of other Linux projects are attracted to Ubuntu's commitment to remaining free.16 Freedom is enshrined in the Ubuntu Philosophy; the code by which the distribution community and users operate. It stipulates that every computer user should have the freedom to download, run, copy, distribute, study, share, change and improve their software for any purpose, without paying licensing fees. Language availability is also at the heart of the Ubuntu distribution. Its philosophy states that every computer user should have access to software in the language of their choice17 and Ubuntu is currently translated into 35 languages.18 'Freedom' thus means both free in the sense of without monetary cost and freedom of choice, opportunity and action.19 The Ubuntu software repository contains thousands of software packages organised into 4 'components' on the basis of the level of support they offer for them and whether or not they comply with the Free Software Philosophy.20 These are 'main', 'restricted', 'multiverse' and 'universe'. 10 Ben King, 'Google at work on desktop Linux', The Register, January 2006 http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/01/31/google_goes_desktop_linux/ 11 http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/15.05/feat_raves.html 12 http://www.markshuttleworth.com/biography/ 13 http://www.markshuttleworth.com/biography/ 14 http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/15.05/feat_raves.html 15 Ben King, 'The entrepreneur who wants to give it all away', Financial Times, January 2006 16 Ben King, 'The entrepreneur who wants to give it all away', Financial Times, January 2006 17 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/philosophy 18 http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/15.05/feat_raves.html 19 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/philosophy 20 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/components All Ubuntu 'main' components are under a licence which ensures that they include the source code and allow modification and distribution of modified copies under the same licence.21 Beyond this, Ubuntu 'main' and 'restricted' component come under one licence policy. This stipulates the right to sell or give away the software – you are allowed to charge to print Ubuntu CDs or sell customised versions, without Ubuntu requiring a fee or royalties. The rights under the Ubuntu licence may be passed on along with the software and must not discriminate against persons, groups or against fields of endeavour – for example, Ubuntu does not distribute software that is licensed freely only for non-commercial use, as this discriminates against business usage. The rights attached to the software must not be dependent on the programme's being part of the Ubuntu distribution and they must not contaminate other software licences i.e. the licence must not place restrictions on other software that is distributed along with it. Sometimes authors want the software and modifications to be distributed separately, so users always have a copy of their original code. This is allowable in the 'main' and 'restricted' Ubuntu components and modifications may be distributed as patches.22 This licence structure is based on the Free Software Guidelines of the Debian project.23 Main: The main distribution components contain applications that are free according to the Ubuntu Philosophy and are given full technical support and security updates by the Ubuntu team. This includes a selected list of applications that the Ubuntu developers, community, and users feel are important, which are designed to encompass everything most people need for a fully functional desktop or internet server running only open source software.24 Restricted: These are commonly used software applications which are supported by the Ubuntu team, although not available under a completely free licence – they don't necessarily contain modifiable source code. Because of this, Ubuntu cannot guarantee complete technical support for these. Such applications are installed on Ubuntu CDs, but they are easy to remove and only included when necessary for running Ubuntu on certain machines.25 21 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/licensing 22 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/licensing 23 http://www.debian.org/social_contract#guidelines 24 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/components 25 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/components Universe: This is a large collection of open source software from across the web, with a variety of different licences. The 'Universe' component does not have a guarantee of security fixes and support. It is intended to provide a 'snapshot' of what is available from the open source world.26 Multiverse: This is software which is not free and doesn't meet the Ubuntu 'main' component licence at all. Ubuntu does not provide fixes, updates or support for this and it is used at the owners own risk.27 Canonical and The Ubuntu Foundation The Ubuntu project is protected by the Ubuntu Foundation; a trust which had an initial funding pot of $10 million from Shuttleworth.28 He continues to invest this sum each year into keeping Ubuntu going.29 Canonical Ltd was set up in 2004 to sponsor Ubuntu and other open source projects. It provides many key project resources, including servers, bandwidth and a number of core developers. It's a for-profit company which derives revenue primarily from services related to Ubuntu, such as support contracts.30 It also sponsors Bazaar, a distributed version control system used by Ubuntu and two projects aimed at raising awareness of open source beyond those with technical know-how; the Go Open Source Campaign operates across South Africa, whilst TheOpenCD project aims to introduce Windows users to the benefits of free and open source software.31 Canonical Ltd has more than 90 employees working in over 18 countries. Its self-proclaimed mission is to deliver the world's best free software platform and ensure its quality, availability and growth. It makes some revenues from support services, engineering services, training and hardware and software certification for Ubuntu, as well as customization services. It also runs a Partner Programme for businesses that are providing IT solutions based on Ubuntu, or include Ubuntu with their hardware or software, or who are interested in Linux education. Canonical's global partner network offers local support, industry leading hardware and software from 300 companies globally. There is also a growing network of companies that provide local support for desktops and servers running Ubuntu across the world.32 26 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/components 27 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/components 28 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/foundation 29 Ben King, 'Ubuntu heads for the mainstream', The Register, July 2006, http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/07/25/ubuntu_goes_mainstream/ 30 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuForDebianDevelopers 31 http://canonical.com/projects 32 http://www.ubuntu.com/support/commercial/marketplace Shuttleworth, however, is frank about the commercial potential of the venture; he says he is unsure how this will work at the moment. He justifies his personal involvement with the project on philanthropic grounds. However, he also claims to be confident that demand for the for-profit services Canonical offers at present is growing and that the company can break even on this basis.33 One commentator noted last year that Shuttleworth is focusing his attention away from the core business of building the distribution, to improving other services which will make it a more professional operation.34 Both Canonical and the Ubuntu Foundation have made public commitments that Ubuntu will always be freely available. The Foundation guarantees the viability of the project independently of the commercial activities of Canonical.35 However, there has also been some controversy over Ubuntu's relationship with the older open source project, Debian and some question about how Ubuntu will sustain both its credentials as an effective free product (in both the monetary and source code sense) whilst also functioning as a viable business.36 The Ubuntu developers' community The Ubuntu community has democratic, meritocratic and dictatorial elements. It has both a highly distributive framework for development, where many people work on small segments of the project, and a centralised decision making process. Collaboration is encouraged and guided via the different means of communication supported by the project, with both traditional communication tools such as forums, wikis and mailing lists, and made-to- measure solutions like Launchpad and Bazaar. Formal infrastructure The community structure is designed to facilitate participation in decision making in such a way that the results are both transparent and fair, and decisions are made efficiently, even when lacking a clear consensus amongst the community.37 33 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarkShuttleworth 34 Ben King, 'Ubuntu heads for the mainstream', The Register, July 2006, http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/07/25/ubuntu_goes_mainstream/ 35 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/foundation 36 See for example: Charles H. Schulz, 'Ubuntu: derivative or fork?', Libervis.com: The Digital Freedom Community, October 2005, http://www.libervis.com/article/ubuntu_derivative_or_fork , Shuttleworth tackles some of these criticisms on the Ubuntu wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarkShuttleworth 37 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/governance At the heart of the formal Ubuntu infrastructure lies the Technical Board and the Community Council. The Ubuntu Technical Board is responsible for the technical direction of Ubuntu. It deals with the packaging policy describing the standards to which Ubuntu packages must comply. It also outlines Ubuntu release feature goals - determining specific features which they aim to include in each new release – and selects the list of packages that will be installed in an Ubuntu installation, as well as the list of packages that qualify for full support in the 'main' as opposed to 'universe' component. Anyone can propose additions to these policies via the Ubuntu wiki.38 By working with the relevant team of developers, the Technical Board tries to find consensus with the team members responsible for the implementation of the decision. It is also responsible for several key policy documents and standards, and is required to sign off on a complete set of these for each release of Ubuntu.39 They meet every two weeks on IRC.40 Anyone can put an item up for discussion at these meetings via the Technical Board Agenda on the Ubuntu wiki.41 The meetings are open to all interested parties, but the Board only seeks consensus amongst its members and those who submitted the proposal to the agenda.42 As the Ubuntu website declares, "this not a democracy, it's a meritocracy," operating "more on consensus than on votes".43 The Technical Board has four permanent members including Shuttleworth. Nominations for membership are considered for each release – i.e. every six months. Appointments are made for a year and appointed by Shuttleworth subject to confirmation by a vote amongst the maintainers.44 The social structures and community processes of Ubuntu are supervised by the Ubuntu Community Council. They approve the creation of a new Team or Project and appointment of team leaders. The Council is also responsible for the Code of Conduct and dispute resolution. It exercises this power by asking the member of the community in question to retract and apologise for offending behaviour, refrain from further such behaviour, or leave the community. Its meetings function in a similar way to the Technical Board. It is composed of four permanent members including Shuttleworth, whom makes nominations for membership, which are then subject to confirmation by a vote amongst the maintainers. However, unlike the Technical Board, nominations for membership are considered annually and appointments are only for a two- 38 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/techboard 39 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/governance 40 More about the forms of communication used between Ubuntu members and developers below 41 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/governance 42 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/techboard 43 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/governance 44 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/techboard year period. This difference is deliberate as the Community Council is not focused on new releases, in the way that the Technical Board is, but is a rather more "philosophical body" designed to tackle issues related to community organisation.45 In this formal infrastructure, Mark Shuttleworth pays a central part as puppet master, a role described as "happily undemocratic."46 He uses the acronym 'SABDFL' as a nickname – meaning 'self-appointed benevolent dictator for life'.47 Shuttleworth has the ability to ask Canonical employees to work on specific projects, feature goals and bugs. He also has a casting vote on the Technical Board and Community Council, should it come to a vote. The Ubuntu project recognises the problems inherent in consensus decision making; sometimes reaching a decision is more important than expending energy in debate and sometimes agreement or compromise is impossible. This is when Shuttleworth as SABDFL acts to provide leadership, guidance and pacesetting; a power which is used with due caution, so as not to weaken the community thrust of the project.48 Top-down decision making can sometimes be brutal. At present, under 'How to contribute' in the artwork section it bluntly states: "Feisty artwork will be designed by kwwii – of Kubuntu Edgy and KDE Oxygen Icon fame. He will be working closely with sabdfl in the design. Do not expect community involvement in defining this portion."49 Beyond the formally constructed institutions of Ubuntu, there are a number of key teams which are responsible for different areas of the distribution. For example, laptop usage, desktop look and feel, ports to particular platforms and so forth.50 Ubuntu provides support, guidance and facilities to these development groups, but beyond this it encourages self-organisation. Users can set up new teams via the Community Council, once they have gathered a group of like-minded people.51 Each are provided with a wiki page, mail lists, IRC channel, Launchpad site and so forth.52 Local Community Teams (LoCo Teams) are an important part of the Ubuntu Community and are an example of how Ubuntu can encourage and facilitate, but not directly control, its community. They provide a Code of Conduct 45 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/council 46 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/governance 47 Stephen Shankland, 'Ubuntu carves niche in Linux landscape', CNET News.com, September 2005, http://news.com.com/Ubuntu+carves+niche+in+Linux+landscape/2100-7344_3-5886194.html 48 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/governance 49 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork 50 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/governance 51 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/governance 52 More on methods of communication below specifically for team leadership and offer support for resolving conflicts within LoCo Teams. An approved LoCo team is also eligible for benefits such as marketing materials53 and each are provided with a wiki page, IRC channel, mailing list and forum.54 They work with local Linux User Groups (LUGs), schools, municipalities, national governments to promote the world of Free Software. They gather regularly to meet in person and Ubuntu provides free server hosting space for LoCo websites, wiki's, mailing lists and other resources, which will be examined in further detail below.55 There are currently 42 officially-recognised LoCo Teams from around the world.56 LoCo teams vary greatly according to their goals and interests. Some are committed to spreading the word of Ubuntu and advocating its use; some simply want to provide translations for Ubuntu in local languages; others want to provide support, particularly in a non-English language. They are all free to join.57 Ubuntu gives its LoCo and development team advice about leadership, encouraging openness and flexibilities. Running a team not only involves helping to lead that team forward, but also solving problems, helping new members, encouraging existing members and helping to keep people active and interested in the group.58 Ubuntu makes some suggestions for the kind of work LoCo teams might do, including representation at computing fairs, in regional press, contacting local PC suppliers about whether they stock Ubuntu friendly hardware; customising a distribution or setting up their own, full- customised version of Ubuntu; a LoCo team might specialise on one specific distribution of the Ubuntu family, for example Edubuntu or Kubuntu; or a team might act as a local distribution point for Ubuntu CDs.59 Code of Conduct Alongside the support offered for members, the Ubuntu community operates under two 'code of conduct' agreements; one for general participation, the other for guidance specifically for team leaders. The main Code of Conduct provides ground rules for members of the Ubuntu community. It encourages adherents to be considerate, respectful and collaborative; members should also consult on disagreements, always ask for help when needed and step down from positions of responsibility considerately.60 The leadership Code of 53 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamHowto 54 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamList 55 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/governance 56 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamList 57 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamJoining 58 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamHowto 59 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamHowto 60 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct Conduct recommends 'leadership by example', stating that "leadership is not an award, right or title – it's a privilege". Leaders are not autocrats; they must earn respect and contribute in a reliable and sustained way. They must respect Ubuntu processes and principles and manage delegation by balancing their own hard work with encouraging group input. They must highlight the team's effort, not their own and recognise - and attempt to mitigate - their own conflicts of interest and avoid personal interests affecting their work whilst not overriding their own beliefs or principles. The need to step down from their posts in a considerate fashion is also highlighted.61 If an Ubuntu developer or member is behaving inappropriately, they might be reported to the Technical Board (for technical issues) or the Community Council (for non-tech issues).62 Developer organisation Ubuntu is organised around a hierarchy of developers. An Ubuntu member (an Ubuntero or Ubuntite) is someone who has made a substantial contribution to the Ubuntu community and has explicitly committed themselves to observing the Ubuntu Code of Conduct.63 Sustained commitment to the project might be demonstrated by coding, writing or documentation, creation of art-work, music, testing, bug triage and verification, translation, advocacy, leadership of LoCo teams and so forth. To be approved, a candidate must document their work on the Ubuntu wiki, provide testimonials from others on their work and put themselves up for approval by the Community Council.64 Members vote on all nominations to the Ubuntu Community Council. They may also be called on to vote on resolutions put to the members of the Community Council. Members get an email address @ubuntu.com and Ubuntu branding for business card use. Membership lasts for 2 years and is renewable – otherwise it becomes inactive. There are currently 283 Ubuntu members.65 There are three types of Ubuntu developer. Initially, those who want to work on the Ubuntu project become prospective developers. They work with an existing developer or core developer as a sponsor and mentor. This mentor reviews the packages prepared by the prospect developer, provides constructive feedback and uploads the package when they are satisfied with its quality. Once they have gained experience, they can apply to become an Ubuntu Developer.66 61 http://www.ubuntu.com/community/leadership-conduct 62 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuForDebianDevelopers 63 http://www.ubuntulinux.org/community/processes/newmember/ 64 http://www.ubuntulinux.org/community/processes/newmember/ 65 https://launchpad.net/~ubuntumembers/ 66 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopers Ubuntu Developers – or MOTUs (Masters of the universe) - are responsible for the maintenance of the 'multiverse' and 'universe' packages in Ubuntu. In addition, they may contribute to the 'main' component in cooperation with a core developer, merge new versions from Debian, ask questions of other developers in order to expand their understanding of packaging work and provide guidance for prospective Ubuntu developers. After gaining experience they might become a core developer.67 Prospective MOTU developers must be approved by the MOTU council and confirmed by a member of the technical board.68 MOTUs make collective decisions via the MOTU Council's voting system.69 Core Developers are responsible for maintenance of packages in the 'main' and 'restricted' components and have a good working knowledge of and history of contribution to the Ubuntu project. They take a leading role in new development projects to improve Ubuntu and should have a sense of personal responsibility for the quality of Ubuntu releases and success of the project.70 There are currently 44 members of the Ubuntu Core Development Team.71 Prospective core developers must be approved by the Technical Board. They apply by attending a regularly scheduled meeting of the Technical Board. There is an interview-like process where they have to demonstrate their capabilities and experience.72 In some instances, developers may be paid for work. These are called 'bounties'; small, generally non-critical projects/pieces of development, or bug fixes etc which are offered to the community for completion in return for a monetary reward.73 Communication and collaboration Ubuntu provides its developers and members with a range of services through which they can communication and collaborate. There are a wide range of mailing lists and forums (which include RSS feeds and the use of opinion polls) through which project communication might be channelled. The Ubuntu Team 67 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopers 68 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NewDeveloperProcess 69 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Council 70 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopers 71 https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/ 72 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NewDeveloperProcess 73 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDownUnder/BOFs/BountyStrategy Wiki also hosts a wide range of editable information on the project and details about those involved.74 Alongside these more traditional communication applications, Ubuntu provides and has developed new ways for open source software project members to collaborate. Launchpad is used for team communication.75 It is a tool designed for software project management, specifically aimed at the free and open source software world. It was created for Ubuntu use, but now also hosts similar projects such as Zope, Creative Commons and Silva CMS.76 It hosts code, works as a place to track bugs, record and discuss progress and goals, aids translating into other languages (on a platform code named 'Rosetta') and provides a common place for team communication and support. Launchpad also allows users to see who is doing what and which members contribute the most.77 All Ubuntu teams have a Launchpad entry. For the LoCo teams, for example, this provides an official team roster and a secure method of voting.78 Ubuntu also uses Freenode, a communication application using IRC (Internet Relay Chat) for the free and open source software communities and not-for- profit organisations.79 There are different channels for each group or team and the Ubuntu Technical Board and Community Council hold their meetings on Freenode channels. Most groups within Ubuntu use a combination of these communication channels; each LoCo team has a homepage or wiki page, IRC channel, mailing list and forum.80 Shuttleworth sees the tools created through the development of the Ubuntu community as key to solving the problem of 'sharing between distributions'. He believes that many open source software projects would greatly benefit from the ability to collaborate with each other and that using applications such as Launchpad and Bazaar means separate open source projects can gain access to each other's work.81 Usage figures 74 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ 75 https://launchpad.net 76 https://launchpad.net/+about 77 https://launchpad.net/+about 78 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoFAQ 79 http://freenode.net/ 80 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamList 81 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarkShuttleworth I didn't really cover different distribution statistics in the research I did on Linux previously – they're tricky to get data on. What follows is far from complete/ideal. I've emailed the Ubuntu press contact to ask for specific data on each release, but I'd be very surprised if they give it to me. The best I can find currently online are statistics for the average number of hits per day for each distribution's page – not a proper measure of how many people run each of them, but perhaps a reasonable indicator of their relative popularity. The figures below represent hits per day by unique visitors.82 Average number of hits per day for the previous twelve months, top-ten distributions only:83 Ranking Distribution Hits per day 1 Ubuntu 2760 2 OpenSUSE 1967 3 Fedora 1400 4 PCLinuxOS 1279 5 MEPIS 1133 6 Mandriva 968 7 Debian 944 8 Damn Small 764 9 Sabayon 654 10 Slackware 640 Similarly, Google trends history – which isn't a very good measure – shows Ubuntu searches steadily increasing from 2004 onwards, with other major Linux distributions (Suse, Debian, Fedora) remaining at a fairly steady search volume, whilst Redhat slowly declines.84 I've come across some individual case studies which indicate that Ubuntu is certainly making a play for a market beyond the niche tech world with some success. The French parliament is switching from Microsoft to Ubuntu in June 2007.85 In May 2006, Ubuntu signed its first major server deal with Sun,86 and it is now pre-installed on PCs from a Singapore-based company, Esys.87 Etc etc. 82 http://distrowatch.com/dwres.php?resource=faq 83 http://distrowatch.com/stats.php?section=popularity 84 http://www.google.com/trends?q=ubuntu%2C+suse%2C+debian%2C+fedora%2C+redhat&ctab=0&geo=all&d ate=all 85 Christophe Guillemin, 'French parliament picks Ubuntu for Linux switch', CNET News.com, March 2007, http://news.com.com/2100-7344_3-6166347.html The most recent estimate I can find for the value of the global Linux market was from IDC in 2004, which predicted it would be worth $35.7 billion by 2008 – which seems pretty high.88 The only concrete numbers I can find on Ubuntu are as follows: - The first version of Ubuntu, Warty Warthog, reached a distribution of 1.4 million copies.89 - Ubuntu has been deployed on home computers and in government deployments of over 100,000 machines.90 - Shuttleworth has previously estimated the user base to be between 2 and 6 million.91 86 Ben King, 'Ubuntu heads for the mainstream', The Register, July 2006, http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/07/25/ubuntu_goes_mainstream/ 87 Ben King, 'Ubuntu heads for the mainstream', The Register, July 2006, http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/07/25/ubuntu_goes_mainstream/ 88 Maureen O'Gara, 'OSDL looks under the sofa cushions for signs of Linux growth', Enterprise Open Source Magazine, December 2004, http://opensource.sys- con.com/read/47543.htm?CFID=221981&CFTOKEN=642D6B35-A340-13A1-F44DB6C3D335D3E0 89 Stephen Shankland, 'Ubuntu carves niche in Linux landscape', CNET News.com, September 2005, http://news.com.com/Ubuntu+carves+niche+in+Linux+landscape/2100-7344_3-5886194.html 90 http://canonical.com/support 91 Ben King, 'Ubuntu heads for the mainstream', The Register, July 2006, http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/07/25/ubuntu_goes_mainstream/

That was great, best flash ive seen this year. I feel sorry for the people that dont get it.
Brilliance in a turd-shell.
I watched this and thought it was so funny because im into random humour, but read some reviews and found that you had intertwined a hilarious elongated metaphor. Well done, I really enjoyed this.
I too didn't get it at first. I had to read the reviews to figure it out. :)
Once you get it and watch it again, the puns and double meanings are AWESOME! Nearly every sentence fits into two different stories (one making a lot more sense than the other, of course).
Bravo, yet again.
You did it again -- I fell off my chair. I'm speechless. So disturbing. So brilliant.
ok i liked it a little but what the hell. What was it about? is there more?but anyway good work..... I geuss

CONFIRMED by the Pokémon Company. At certain points in the game we'll be able to get new accessories and outfits for our protagonists. We'll be able to go back and change our outfits whenever we like. Also, since the new camera angles show our characters close up and in detail, we'll be able to see their new outfits on them.
So, it looks like we won't only be able to just change skin color, eye color, and hair color after all!

Though I do wish it was just outfits and accessories and no change in skin, eye, and hair color, so the protagonists will be considered canon with their default appearance.

I didn't think much about the distant rumble of thunder as I biked along a favorite unpaved rail trail. It was a hot day, and I figured that, if it rained, it would cool things down a bit. There were small, roofed picnic shelters every couple of miles where I could wait out a thunderstorm and then continue on my way, a bit mud-spattered from the puddles on the trail perhaps, but none the worse for wear. And even if I did get a little wet, my clothes would dry quickly in the sun.
A thousand times a day, my mind creates its own little world of expectations and assumptions. I imagine how things will be in the future, plan how to deal with contingencies, and try hard to be on top of things. This was one of those times.
I biked on, glad for the clouds that took the edge off the afternoon heat, unaware of the fantasy realm of presumptions I was living in. When rain began to fall, it was more like a fine mist than actual drops. It felt good on my hot skin, and I thought, Oh, this is nice! It's even better than the clouds. I immediately revised my inner calculations, seeing myself biking through the mist for just long enough to really cool off, at which point the sun would emerge and gift me with a rainbow.

Members of Congress play a central role in our lives. They shape our health-care system, make crucial decisions about the U.S. economy, and represent the hopes and interests of every American in Washington. Given this fact, I'm always surprised that relatively little attention is focused on examining closely whether someone serving in or running for Congress has the personal attributes it takes to be an effective member of the institution. If someone's behavior is shady or unsavory, that will make the news.
SANTA FE – What will the next 20 days bring? Republican leaders say all $650 million of the deficit should be covered by cuts in government.
Gov. Bill Richardson has ruled out increasing any of the taxes he has cut during the first seven years of his administration.
Some Democrats say all of the deficit must be covered by additional taxes. Their reasoning is that since taxes were cut by a billion dollars during the good years of the Richardson administration, they should be reinstated now that the economy has turned bad.
A couple years ago, a Milwaukee man was charged with discharging a shotgun in a rural area. His lawnmower wouldn't start and in a fit of anger, he shot it. Yes, he brutally murdered his lawnmower. As the man approached with intent to kill, the lawnmower's fate was sealed. Left-wing liberal mentality had legislated an unreasonable waiting period for gun ownership and hence the defenseless lawnmower could not fight back.
Let's take a different look at the issue of global warming, or better stated, climate change. First a few observations:
It is undeniable that coal and oil deposits underground had locked up vast amounts of carbon, and to support human activities they are being brought up and burned in enormous quantities, thus releasing the carbon into the atmosphere.
For approximately 10 years, I have had a standing luncheon engagement at a popular restaurant in the Mari-Mac Shopping Center. I used to drive right up and park a half block or less away for a quick and convenient lunch. But over the years things have changed and my friends and I have a hard time finding a place anywhere near the restaurant row at Mari-Mac to park. The problem built up slowly.
The central political battle of our time is between the public sector, public sector unions in particular, and the private sector.
The battle is over "who defines the work and institutions that make a nation thrive and grow," in the elegant words of columnist Daniel Henninger of the Wall Street Journal. Easterners seem unhappy with the public sector dominance. Scott Brown's Senate victory in Massachusetts is the prime example.
New Mexico's public sector continues winning.
Governor Richardson seems adamant in asserting that whatever tax hikes he pushes through during the 2010 legislative session will be "temporary." This promise from a lame-duck governor is ridiculous on its face and is an impossible promise for him to keep. Since this is his final legislative session in office, he won't even be around to determine whether the hikes he enacts will be temporary or not.
SANTA FE — Gov. Bill Richardson's economic development initiatives continue to be his top priorities for projects not to be cut in this legislative session.
Richardson calls them the bold initiatives of which he is proudest about accomplishing during his seven years in office. These are the initiatives that have brought New Mexico into the 21st century, he tells us.
These initiatives have been boldly promoted but their successes in terms of hard numbers are something lawmakers are going to want to see before this legislative session is over.

Low level, cork fell in when touched with a corkscrew, but marvellous ! Deep bright ruby/plum at the core albeit with a wide thinner and bricked rim. Breathed up even better than when first opened - cedar wood, fresh ground coffee and ripe plums. Really smooth mouth entry but then light and ethereal in the mouth. Despite that elegance the flavours are really saturating ... very saline and still fruity (plums again). Tremendously pleasing; I would re-buy without hesitating, even though in objective terms it's only a ****
Nice enough, with good cut but also a distinct caramel edge which suggests it is on its way out.
Some nice fruit at the core but this is a tight hard ball of a wine still all wrapped up with lashings of dry oaky tannins. I'll keep the rest another 5 years and hope...

Additional Information on A Donkey And Goat Syrah Perli Vineyards 2012
A Donkey And Goat
Vintage: 2012
2012 has, so far been a positive year for wineries around the world. While it may be a little too early to speak of the wines being made in the northern hemisphere, European and North American wineries have already begun reporting that their harvesting season has been generally very good, and are predicting to continue with the kind of successes they saw in 2011. However, 2012 has been something of a late year for France, due to unpredictable weather throughout the summer, and the grapes were ripening considerably later than they did in 2011 (which was, admittedly, an exceptionally early year). French wineries are claiming, though, that this could well turn out to be advantageous, as the slow ripening will allow the resulting wines to express more flavour and features of the terroir they are grown in. The southern hemisphere has seen ideal climatic conditions in most of the key wine producing countries, and Australia and New Zealand particularly had a superb year, in particular with the Bordeaux varietal grapes that grow there and which love the humidity these countries received plenty of. Also enjoying a fantastic year for weather were wineries across Argentina and Chile, with the Mendoza region claiming that 2012 will be one of their best vintages of the past decade. Similar claims are being made across the Chilean wine regions, where Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Sauvignon had an especially good year. These two grape varietals also produced characterful wines on the coastal regions of South Africa this year.
Varietal: Syrah
Known as Syrah in most countries around the world, and Shiraz in Australia and certain other regions of the New World, this grape varietal has proven over the centuries to be one of the most powerful and flavorful red wine grapes there is. It is now one of the planet's most widely grown grapes, and is a favorite with wineries as a result of its robustness and versatility. It isn't easy to identify many characteristics of this particular varietal, due to the fact that it is highly versatile and shows significant differences in flavor and character depending on the terroir it is grown in, and the climatic conditions of the region. However, Syrah is most widely associated with full bodied, strong and loud red wines, packed full of fruity and spicy flavors, held in a beautifully deep red liquid.
Region: California
Since the 18th century, California has been a hugely important and influential wine region, acting as a trailblazer for other New World wine regions and utilizing an important blend of traditional and contemporary practices, methods and techniques relating to their wine production. Split into four key areas – the North Coast, the Central Coast, the South Coast and the Central Valley – Californian wineries make the most of their ideal climate and rich variety of terrains in order to produce a fascinating range of wines made with a long list of different fine grape varietals. Today, the state has almost half a million acres under vine, and is one of the world's largest wine exporters, with Californian wines being drunk and enjoyed all across the globe.
Country: United States
For three hundred years now, the United States has been leading the New World in wine production, both in regards to quantity and quality. Wine is actually produced in all fifty states across the country, with California leading the way by an enormous margin. Indeed, as much as eighty-nine percent of all wines to come out of the United States are produced in California, where the fertile soils and sloping mountain sides, coupled with the long, hot summers provide ideal conditions for producing high quality, European style red, white and rosé wines. With over a million acres of the country under vine, the United States sits comfortably as the fourth largest wine producer in the world, where imported grape varietals from all over the Old World are processed using a successful blend of traditional and contemporary techniques.

Cleaning products, outdoor equipment, and pool supplies are just a fragment of the stores' inventory, with power tools awaiting steady hands, fishing gear beckoning lake dwellers, and building materials—including the Tempe location's 56,000 square feet of lumber—standing poised and ready to be assembled into dams by handy beavers. Still in the city of its founding, the Scottsdale location has moved and upgraded to its own building.1153 W Broadway Rd.Tempe, AZ US

Why the hell is Lana Del Ray famous anymore?� Bitch's name sounds like it should be a 3rd rate catering hall on the water, and she is about as talented as one of those wedding singers you find on Craigslist, with the personality of a vegetable to boot.
Even more confusing is the fact that she seems to absolutely hate the fame.� According to a new interview, she doesn't even want people to pay any attention to her music or her anymore.� Wish granted.
Rolling Stone was either desperate for anyone to be in their magazine this month, or someone lost a major bet, because for some reason they had Lana Del Ray on their cover.� And in her usual foot in mouth style, the entire interview with her is chockfull of asshattery and stupid.
For example, did you know that even though Lana considers herself a musician, and selling records is what pays her bills, she apparently doesn't want any of us to listen to her music?
�I just don�t want them to hear it at all. I�m very selfish. I make everything for me, kind of. I mean, every little thing, down to the guitar and the drums. It�s just for me� I don�t want them to hear it and think about it. It�s none of their business!�
Listen bitch, you don't need to fight me.� If I never have to hear that Summertime Sadness whining on the radio anymore, I'd be very happy.� I can't tell you how many times it takes hitting the thumbs down button on Pandora for that shit to understand that I don't want to listen to any of this crap.
Lana also wants us all to know that while she may say some bat shit crazy stuff, and may get a little 5150 looking, she is not actually a nutjob.
�Well, I�feel�fucking crazy. But I don�t�think�I am. People make me feel crazy. I find that most people I meet figure I kind of want to kill myself anyway. So, it comes up every time.�
Well, maybe if Lana didn't give off the aura of a 14 year old faux emo girl with too much eyeliner and whose bedroom walls are covered in black and cheesy quotes about heartbreak, then most people wouldn't think that.
And incase the whole self deprecating shtick that Ray is throwing out there hasn't been apparent enough, Lana even tried to "quit this bitch" mid interview because she's just so not worthy.
�I�m not sure if they should run this story� I feel like maybe we should wait until there�s something good to talk about. You know? I just wish you could write about something else. There has to be someone else to be the cover story. Like, there has to be. Anybody.�
On this, I 10000% percent agree with Lana.� I see Sam Smith's name on the cover there.� They easily could have put that beautiful squishy man with the voice of an angel on the cover, and I would have bought every glittery copy.
Or shit, even Kanye.� I hate Kanye, but I'd rather listen to him rant about leather pants and glass ceilings than listen to Lana Del Ray whine.
