ABSTRACT: Rif1 regulates replication timing and repair of double-strand DNA breaks. Using a chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing method, we identified 35 high-affinity Rif1-binding sites in fission yeast chromosomes. Binding sites tended to be located near dormant origins and to contain at least two copies of a conserved motif, CNWWGTGGGGG. Base substitution within these motifs resulted in complete loss of Rif1 binding and in activation of late-firing or dormant origins located up to 50 kb away. We show that Rif1-binding sites adopt G quadruplex-like structures in vitro, in a manner dependent on the conserved sequence and on other G tracts, and that purified Rif1 preferentially binds to this structure. These results suggest that Rif1 recognizes and binds G quadruplex-like structures at selected intergenic regions, thus generating local chromatin structures that may exert long-range suppressive effects on origin firing.
Article: CDC28 phosphorylates Cac1p and regulates the association of chromatin assembly factor I with chromatin[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Chromatin Assembly Factor I (CAF-I) plays a key role in the replication-coupled assembly of nucleosomes. It is expected that its function is linked to the regulation of the cell cycle, but little detail is available. Current models suggest that CAF-I is recruited to replication forks and to chromatin via an interaction between its Cac1p subunit and the replication sliding clamp, PCNA, and that this interaction is stimulated by the kinase CDC7. Here we show that another kinase, CDC28, phosphorylates Cac1p on serines 94 and 515 in early S phase and regulates its association with chromatin, but not its association with PCNA. Mutations in the Cac1p-phosphorylation sites of CDC28 but not of CDC7 substantially reduce the in vivo phosphorylation of Cac1p. However, mutations in the putative CDC7 target sites on Cac1p reduce its stability. The association of CAF-I with chromatin is impaired in a cdc28-1 mutant and to a lesser extent in a cdc7-1 mutant. In addition, mutations in the Cac1p-phosphorylation sites by both CDC28 and CDC7 reduce gene silencing at the telomeres. We propose that this phosphorylation represents a regulatory step in the recruitment of CAF-I to chromatin in early S phase that is distinct from the association of CAF-I with PCNA. Hence, we implicate CDC28 in the regulation of chromatin reassembly during DNA replication. These findings provide novel mechanistic insights on the links between cell-cycle regulation, DNA replication and chromatin reassembly.

ABSTRACT: Depletion of replication factors often causes cell death in cancer cells. Depletion of Cdc7, a kinase essential for initiation of DNA replication, induces cancer cell death regardless of its p53 status, but the precise pathways of cell death induction have not been characterized. We have used the recently-developed cell cycle indicator, Fucci, to precisely characterize the cell death process induced by Cdc7 depletion. We have also generated and utilized similar fluorescent cell cycle indicators using fusion with other cell cycle regulators to analyze modes of cell death in live cells in both p53-positive and -negative backgrounds. We show that distinct cell-cycle responses are induced in p53-positive and -negative cells by Cdc7 depletion. p53-negative cells predominantly arrest temporally in G2-phase, accumulating CyclinB1 and other mitotic regulators. Prolonged arrest at G2-phase and abrupt entry into aberrant M-phase in the presence of accumulated CyclinB1 are followed by cell death at the post-mitotic state. Abrogation of cytoplasmic CyclinB1 accumulation partially decreases cell death. The ATR-MK2 pathway is responsible for sequestration of CyclinB1 with 14-3-3σ protein. In contrast, p53-positive cancer cells do not accumulate CyclinB1, but appear to die mostly through entry into aberrant S-phase after Cdc7 depletion. The combination of Cdc7 inhibition with known anti-cancer agents significantly stimulates cell death effects in cancer cells in a genotype-dependent manner, providing a strategic basis for future combination therapies. Our results show that the use of Fucci, and similar fluorescent cell cycle indicators, offers a convenient assay system with which to identify cell cycle events associated with cancer cell death. They also indicate genotype-specific cell death modes induced by deficient initiation of DNA replication in cancer cells and its potential exploitation for development of efficient cancer therapies.
Article: c-Jun N-terminal kinase-mediated Rad18 phosphorylation facilitates Pol recruitment to stalled replication forks[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The E3 ubiquitin ligase Rad18 chaperones DNA polymerase η (Polη) to sites of UV-induced DNA damage and monoubiquitinates proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), facilitating engagement of Polη with stalled replication forks and promoting translesion synthesis (TLS). It is unclear how Rad18 activities are coordinated with other elements of the DNA damage response. We show here that Ser-409 residing in the Polη-binding motif of Rad18 is phosphorylated in a checkpoint kinase 1-dependent manner in genotoxin-treated cells. Recombinant Rad18 was phosphorylated specifically at S409 by c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) in vitro. In UV-treated cells, Rad18 S409 phosphorylation was inhibited by a pharmacological JNK inhibitor. Conversely, ectopic expression of JNK and its upstream kinase mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 4 led to DNA damage-independent Rad18 S409 phosphorylation. These results identify Rad18 as a novel JNK substrate. A Rad18 mutant harboring a Ser → Ala substitution at S409 was compromised for Polη association and did not redistribute Polη to nuclear foci or promote Polη-PCNA interaction efficiently relative to wild-type Rad18. Rad18 S409A also failed to fully complement the UV sensitivity of Rad18-depleted cells. Taken together, these results show that Rad18 phosphorylation by JNK represents a novel mechanism for promoting TLS and DNA damage tolerance.

ABSTRACT: Cdc7 is a serine/threonine kinase conserved from yeasts to human and is known to play a key role in the regulation of initiation at each replication origin. Its catalytic function is activated via association with the activation subunit Dbf4/activator of S phase kinase (ASK). It is known that two conserved motifs of Dbf4/ASK are involved in binding to Cdc7, and both are required for maximum activation of Cdc7 kinase. Cdc7 kinases possess unique kinase insert sequences (kinase insert I–III) that are inserted at defined locations among the conserved kinase domains. However, precise mechanisms of Cdc7 kinase activation are largely unknown. We have identified two segments on Cdc7, DAM-1 (Dbf4/ASK interacting motif-1; amino acids 448–457 near the N terminus of kinase insert III) and DAM-2 (C-terminal 10-amino acid segment), that interact with motif-M and motif-C of ASK, respectively, and are essential for kinase activation by ASK. The C-terminal 143-amino acid polypeptide (432–574) containing DAM-1 and DAM-2 can interact with Dbf4/ASK. Characterization of the purified ASK-free Cdc7 and Cdc7-ASK complex shows that ATP binding of the Cdc7 catalytic subunit requires Dbf4/ASK. However, the "minimum" Cdc7, lacking the entire kinase insert II and half of kinase insert III, binds to ATP and shows autophosphorylation activity in the absence of ASK. However, ASK is still required for phosphorylation of exogenous substrates by the minimum Cdc7. These results indicate bipartite interaction between Cdc7 and Dbf4/ASK subunits facilitates ATP binding and substrate recognition by the Cdc7 kinase.

Article: Hsk1 kinase and Cdc45 regulate replication stress-induced checkpoint responses in fission yeast[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In fission yeast, replication fork arrest activates the replication checkpoint effector kinase Cds1(Chk2/Rad53) through the Rad3(ATR/Mec1)-Mrc1(Claspin) pathway. Hsk1, the Cdc7 homologue of fission yeast required for efficient initiation of DNA replication, is also required for Cds1 activation. Hsk1 kinase activity is required for induction and maintenance of Mrc1 hyperphosphorylation, which is induced by replication fork block and mediated by Rad3. Rad3 kinase activity does not change in an hsk1 temperature-sensitive mutant, and Hsk1 kinase activity is not affected by rad3 mutation. Hsk1 kinase vigorously phosphorylates Mrc1 in vitro, predominantly at non-SQ/TQ sites, but this phosphorylation does not seem to affect the Rad3 action on Mrc1. Interestingly, the replication stress-induced activation of Cds1 and hyperphosphorylation of Mrc1 is almost completely abrogated in an initiation-defective mutant of cdc45, but not in an mcm2 or polε mutant. The results suggest that Hsk1-mediated loading of Cdc45 onto replication origins may play important roles in replication stress-induced checkpoint.
Article: DDK Phosphorylates Checkpoint Clamp Component Rad9 and Promotes Its Release from Damaged Chromatin[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: When inappropriate DNA structures arise, they are sensed by DNA structure-dependent checkpoint pathways and subsequently repaired. Recruitment of checkpoint proteins to such structures precedes recruitment of proteins involved in DNA metabolism. Thus, checkpoints can regulate DNA metabolism. We show that fission yeast Rad9, a 9-1-1 heterotrimeric checkpoint-clamp component, is phosphorylated by Hsk1(Cdc7), the Schizosaccharomyces pombe Dbf4-dependent kinase (DDK) homolog, in response to replication-induced DNA damage. Phosphorylation of Rad9 disrupts its interaction with replication protein A (RPA) and is dependent on 9-1-1 chromatin loading, the Rad9-associated protein Rad4/Cut5(TopBP1), and prior phosphorylation by Rad3(ATR). rad9 mutants defective in DDK phosphorylation show wild-type checkpoint responses but abnormal DNA repair protein foci and decreased viability after replication stress. We propose that Rad9 phosphorylation by DDK releases Rad9 from DNA damage sites to facilitate DNA repair.

ABSTRACT: The E3 ubiquitin ligase Rad18 guides DNA Polymerase eta (Polη) to sites of replication fork stalling and mono-ubiquitinates proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) to facilitate binding of Y family trans-lesion synthesis (TLS) DNA polymerases during TLS. However, it is unclear exactly how Rad18 is regulated in response to DNA damage and how Rad18 activity is coordinated with progression through different phases of the cell cycle. Here we identify Rad18 as a novel substrate of the essential protein kinase Cdc7 (also termed Dbf4/Drf1-dependent Cdc7 kinase [DDK]). A serine cluster in the Polη-binding motif of Rad 18 is phosphorylated by DDK. Efficient association of Rad18 with Polη is dependent on DDK and is necessary for redistribution of Polη to sites of replication fork stalling. This is the first demonstration of Rad18 regulation by direct phosphorylation and provides a novel mechanism for integration of S phase progression with postreplication DNA repair to maintain genome stability.
Article: Deregulated Cdc6 inhibits DNA replication and suppresses Cdc7-mediated phosphorylation of Mcm2–7 complex[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Mcm2–7 is recruited to eukaryotic origins of DNA replication by origin recognition complex, Cdc6 and Cdt1 thereby licensing the origins. Cdc6 is essential for origin licensing during DNA replication and is readily destabilized from chromatin after Mcm2–7 loading. Here, we show that after origin licensing, deregulation of Cdc6 suppresses DNA replication in Xenopus egg extracts without the involvement of ATM/ATR-dependent checkpoint pathways. DNA replication is arrested specifically after chromatin binding of Cdc7, but before Cdk2-dependent pathways and deregulating Cdc6 after this step does not impair activation of origin firing or elongation. Detailed analyses revealed that Cdc6 deregulation leads to strong suppression of Cdc7-mediated hyperphosphorylation of Mcm4 and subsequent chromatin loading of Cdc45, Sld5 and DNA polymerase α. Mcm2 phosphorylation is also repressed although to a lesser extent. Remarkably, Cdc6 itself does not directly inhibit Cdc7 kinase activity towards Mcm2–4–6–7 in purified systems, rather modulates Mcm2–7 phosphorylation on chromatin context. Taken together, we propose that Cdc6 on chromatin acts as a modulator of Cdc7-mediated phosphorylation of Mcm2–7, and thus destabilization of Cdc6 from chromatin after licensing is a key event ensuring proper transition to the initiation of DNA replication.

ABSTRACT: Cdc7 is a serine-threonine kinase that regulates initiation and progression of DNA replication. The activity of purified Cdc7 kinase is significantly stimulated by polyamines such as spermine or spermidine. Positively charged polymers of lysine or arginine also stimulate its kinase activity, whereas the negatively charged substances such as polyglutamate or nucleic acids significantly inhibit the kinase activity. Spermine affects both the K(m) and V(max) of Cdc7 kinase for a minichromosome maintenance (MCM) substrate. We also found that histones, lysine- and arginine-rich basic proteins, can stimulate Cdc7 kinase activity, and a MCM complex in association with histone is a more efficient substrate of Cdc7 than the free MCM complex. These results identify potential cellular inhibitors and stimulators of Cdc7 kinase and suggest that Cdc7 may be another target of cellular polyamines and that histones may stimulate Cdc7-mediated phosphorylation of chromatin-bound substrates. Ectopic expression of an antizyme, known to reduce the cellular polyamine levels, resulted in reduction of Cdc7-mediated phosphorylation of MCM4 protein, suggesting physiological roles of polyamines in regulation of Cdc7 kinase activity in the cells.

ABSTRACT: Cdc7 kinase is evolutionarily conserved and is involved in initiation and progression of DNA replication. However, roles of Cdc7 in checkpoint responses remain largely unknown. In this study, we show that deletion of the Cdc7 genes in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells abrogates hydroxyurea (HU)- or UV-induced activation of Chk1. HU-induced Chk1 activation is also impaired in human cancer cell lines in which Cdc7 is depleted by siRNA, and Cdc7-depleted cells are more sensitive to HU treatment. In contrast, ATR and Rad17 are relocated to chromatin in these cells following HU treatment, indicating that stalled DNA replication forks are detected normally. Cdc7-depleted cells exhibit defects in chromatin association and phosphorylation of Claspin, suggesting that Cdc7 exerts its effect at least partially through Claspin. Consistent with this prediction, Cdc7 interacts with and phosphorylates Claspin. We propose that Cdc7 is required for activation of the ATR-Chk1 checkpoint pathway through regulation of Claspin.
Article: Cdc7-dependent phosphorylation of Mer2 facilitates initiation of yeast meiotic recombination[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Meiosis ensures genetic diversification of gametes and sexual reproduction. For successful meiosis, multiple events such as DNA replication, recombination, and chromosome segregation must occur coordinately in a strict regulated order. We investigated the meiotic roles of Cdc7 kinase in the initiation of meiotic recombination, namely, DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) mediated by Spo11 and other coactivating proteins. Genetic analysis using bob1-1 cdc7Delta reveals that Cdc7 is essential for meiotic DSBs and meiosis I progression. We also demonstrate that the N-terminal region of Mer2, a Spo11 ancillary protein required for DSB formation and phosphorylated by cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK), contains two types of Cdc7-dependent phosphorylation sites near the CDK site (Ser30): One (Ser29) is essential for meiotic DSB formation, and the others exhibit a cumulative effect to facilitate DSB formation. Importantly, mutations on these sites confer severe defects in DSB formation even when the CDK phosphorylation is present at Ser30. Diploids of cdc7Delta display defects in the chromatin binding of not only Spo11 but also Rec114 and Mei4, other meiotic coactivators that may assist Spo11 binding to DSB hot spots. We thus propose that Cdc7, in concert with CDK, regulates Spo11 loading to DSB sites via Mer2 phosphorylation.
Article: Phosphorylation of MCM4 by Cdc7 Kinase Facilitates Its Interaction with Cdc45 on the Chromatin[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Cdc7 kinase, conserved from yeasts to human, plays important roles in DNA replication. However, the mechanisms by which it stimulates initiation of DNA replication remain largely unclear. We have analyzed phosphorylation of MCM subunits during cell cycle by examining mobility shift on SDS-PAGE. MCM4 on the chromatin undergoes specific phosphorylation during S phase. Cdc7 phosphorylates MCM4 in the MCM complexes as well as the MCM4 N-terminal polypeptide. Experiments with phospho-amino acid-specific antibodies indicate that the S phase-specific mobility shift is due to the phosphorylation at specific N-terminal (S/T)(S/T)P residues of the MCM4 protein. These specific phosphorylation events are not observed in mouse ES cells deficient in Cdc7 or are reduced in the cells treated with siRNA specific to Cdc7, suggesting that they are mediated by Cdc7 kinase. The N-terminal phosphorylation of MCM4 stimulates association of Cdc45 with the chromatin, suggesting that it may be an important phosphorylation event by Cdc7 for activation of replication origins. Deletion of the N-terminal non-conserved 150 amino acids of MCM4 results in growth inhibition, and addition of amino acids carrying putative Cdc7 target sequences partially restores the growth. Furthermore, combination of MCM4 N-terminal deletion with alanine substitution and deletion of the N-terminal segments of MCM2 and MCM6, respectively, which contain clusters of serine/threonine and are also likely targets of Cdc7, led to an apparent nonviable phenotype. These results are consistent with the notion that the N-terminal phosphorylation of MCM2, MCM4, and MCM6 may play functionally redundant but essential roles in initiation of DNA replication.

Titanic life preserver to be auctioned off
- By P.J. Aroon
TIMOTHY A. CLARY/AFP/Getty Images
This cork-filled life preserver from the Titanic, which sunk in 1912, will be sold at auction house Christie's annual ocean liner sale in New York next Wednesday. The life preserver, one of only six known to exist, had been kept by a family in Nova Scotia since it was found — allegedly by a farmer at the Halifax shoreline soon after the tragedy. Christie's expects it to go for 30,000 to 40,000 pounds ($59,000 to $79,000); the auction house sold another one last year in London for 61,000 pounds ($120,000).

The GTA V modding scene keeps on getting better and better! One of the latest mods is the Jet Pack Mod, which if you guessed allows you to have a jet pack! This makes for some pretty awesome and hilarious antics!

GTA V is great to play on PC, but not if you have a really low-end PC. GTA V modder 'emirh08′ has compiled a mod that will allow you to play the game at good frame rates (over 30 FPS) on an average system with low specifications. On a Microsoft Surface Pro 2 Tablet the modder is able to get over 30 FPS on 1280 x 800 resoultion with textures at maximum, FXAA and Shadows enabled, reflection quality on high and Anisotropic Filtering at 8x.

This week on our Weekly Tech Podcast we talk about all of the information that came out of AMD's Financial Analyst day which includes both their CPU and GPU plans for 2016, we get our first look at the R9 390X, talk about Rockstar banning players in GTA V, and more!
May 08, 2015 Bob Buskirk All News, Gaming News 0
As we originally reported Rockstar was banning players for using mods in GTA V in both online mode and single player mode, initially. Because of this many people were unhappy and took to Steam to air their grievance by writing a negative review of the game, which is now up to 8083 at the time of writing this article. Players that were found using mods were banner for a period of 2 weeks. Because of the backlash Rockstar has fixed the situation by allowing mods in single player mode, but not online.
May 05, 2015 Bob Buskirk All News, Gaming News 7
One of the biggest selling points of the GTA V PC version was the ability to mod the game for a better experience and more. Well it looks like that will now get you banned as Rockstar made modding a violation of their terms of service.

I used 7-zip.org to create the compressed file.
I used 7-zip.org to create the compressed file.
dammit i regret downloading diplo 1.2 D:
Ge the cracked game just for this.
:thumbs up:
So is this an independant download or do we add it to stars 2.3?
Absolutely independent (full version), that is mentioned in the description above.
What's the best way to get Diplomacy to only patch to 1.1 or 1.11? I desperately want to play this mod (and a few others) but am stuck with near-useless version 1.2 :(
Oh man, it's really hard, hard question... I even don't know what to answer >.<
hi aplos, thank you for this incredible mod
i have a problem with the 7z file it doesn't want to unrar :/
it's possible to play 2.30 and 2.31 not only with DP 1.01 BUT with
entrenchment 1.051 also???
I think no, You need to modify it
ok... btw... i solved the problem with 7z last version
sorry for the useless post T.T... i thought i could open it with winrar as always
and thank you for the reply on the forum ^_^ you're very kind
it wont play on 1.01 :/ i get a mini dump error...

Anyone using Memorex (Ritek made) D/L media at that price officially gets awarded a Carlos Mencia "Dee, Dee, Dee" award. As pointed out above there are plenty of better options for the money provided you look around. Verbatim D/L DVD+R is BY FAR the best D/L media out there for compatibility. As always make sure you set the booktype to DVD-ROM before burning (provided your burner/firmware revision supports it). Keep an eye out for those D/L Verbs to come back in stock. Even without the rebate they are still a great deal.
True, but at first all I could find close to me was Memorex so I bought a pack. They worked fine, so I contunued to buy them. Now i've switched to Verbs because they are better, and cheaper, but Memorex's do work if you cant find any Verbs localy.

I couldn't figure it out. Once game burned fine, so i assumed it must've been the image.....so I went out my way and bought Verbatims...sure enough, the disc burned fine!....So I thought it was the discs for sure....but then I realized, I was burning the images off a different hard drive - originally was trying to burn the images from an external hard drive....so now I"m not sure if it's the discs or the drive...
Anways, Futureshop here in Canada is having a sale of 15 pack of FujiFilm DVD+R DL discs for 24.95....not bad at all if they work for you. Only till the 18th or 17th....

It was a lot of fun making these for my daughter's horseback riding group. I used a bag of M&Ms in Valentine's Day colors, and put I a pink, red, white, and purple candy on the top of each cookie. The girls really liked that and thought it was festive. And I liked the fact that this cookie recipe used oatmeal (in place of flour). But the kids thought the peanut butter was too overpowering, and I agree. Next time, I think I'll reduce the peanut butter to perhaps 1 cup and see if that works better for us. But it was a lot of fun making these cookies. This is a recipe I will remember for almost any party celebration or special occasion, because they can easily be customized for almost any occasion.
I made this for super bowl--it was a big hit!!! I left out the M&M's because I forgot to order them. I will be making these a lot. Thanks for posting--- Wisconsin Mom
Crisp on the outside and chewy in the middle - just perfect for me! I threw in 1c of millet for additional crunchiness and stirred the m&m's into the dough. I did replace 1c of oats with 1c whole wheat flour and used a mixer to combine everything. Took them out of the oven at around 13 minutes. I'd add a smidge of salt next time since my butter and PB were both unsalted. Great warm out of the oven and keep very well cuz are wonderful on day two too!
Very good cookies - they were quite popular. I have to confess I panicked and added some flour to them, but after making them, I realize I probably wouldn't have needed to. I just picked out the red and blue m&ms from a regular bag. I really like using ground up oatmeal in cookies, and doing it all in the food processor was really easy. Thanks for sharing.
These cookies are great and so easy to make. I just made a batch for Christmas using red and green M & M s. I used quick cooking oats. I have found that they also freeze well although we usually eat them so I don't do that too often. Thank you for sharing this recipe.
This is a good solid drop cookie recipe if you are looking for the peanut butter chocolate taste. The oatmeal gives these cookies some real heft. They are really not a special occasion or party cookie per se, except for choosing to use m&ms that are your team's colors.
Be forewarned that you really do need a good mixer for the batter: it gets really heavy and thick. My hand mixer strained under the load. I followed the recipe exactly except that I mixed the M&Ms into the batter instead of placing them on top. To be honest, when we made them I was just OK with them. But then they sat overnight and the flavor really came out. Nice to have something that you can do ahead. I am saving this recipe with a note to make them a day or two ahead.
My family really enjoyed these cookies. I think they are the easiest cookies to make, I don't see how you could mess them up! The recipe makes a ton of cookies, so I sent them to the office with my husband...the were gone before 11AM! They travel well, and stay fresh for days.

my mom died tonight
Posted 12/16/2012
Oh, hon. Losing your mom is tough enough as it is, but unimaginable at this time. I am so very sorry that it happened this way for you. As a previous poster wisely said, know that she wants the very best for you and that it is ok to enjoy your new baby. It's also ok to have a whole range of emotions and just let them out. Take very good care of yourself and please continue to keep us all posted on how you are doing. You will need even more support than most of us in the coming months. My thoughts and hopes are with you and your family. Hugs.

I know the pain- I am so sorry you are having to deal with this. Thoughts and prayers to your family.

Thank you everyone. Anyone know how to get the puffiness out of your eyes? My head is still splitting and I can only take Tylenol I guess which does nothing for me. I got 3 hours of sleep. I don't go in until 7:30 tonight. Wish i could go sooner but the hospital said no.

Welcome to SeaMonkey Add-ons.
Add extra features and styles to make SeaMonkey your own.Close
GNOMErunner/GTK Revived 0.3.6
by Exalm
GNOMErunner/GTK Revived is an update for GNOMErunner/GTK.
This add-on is not compatible with your version of SeaMonkey because of the following:
About this Add-on
This is a continuation of GNOMErunner/GTK theme that works with SeaMonkey 2.19 and newer versions.
Source code on Github: https://github.com/Exalm/gnomerunnergtk-revived
This theme includes an extension for configuration, which allows to:
- Enable visible toolbar grippies;
- Hide grippies completely, either everywhere or on menubars;
- Enable HTTPS address bar highlight. Since it uses tooltip
colors, it will look ugly on themes with dark tooltips, so it's
disabled by default;
- Enable selective text on some buttons. Be sure to check "Icons" in toolbar context menu for that;
- Bring back the pre-2.22 findbar.
Supported extensions:
- Lightning
- Lightbird
- Sea Fox
Original description:
Just like the Firefox 3 default skin, changing the GTK theme and/or iconset on your system should (to some extend) now be honoured by Seamonkey and will change e.g. for/backward, search, trash button icons accordingly. For icons not being mapped by the system, this theme includes icons from the default gnome iconset. So it should blend with any iconset using the tango palette and style.
Known to work on XFCE, GNOME and KDE3 with Qtcurve Theme.
bug reports, feedback, patches and help welcome.

OK, Nuggets fans. Now that you've flushed all the toxic bitterness from your system, are you ready for some serious basketball?
The return of Carmelo Anthony was the biggest home game of the season for knuckleheads.
The showdown against Memphis, with playoff implications for two teams aching to be taken seriously as contenders, is for hoops lovers.
The Nuggets duke it out with the big, bad Grizzlies on a Friday night that's all right for fighting over home-court advantage in the playoffs.
My prediction: Winner of this game will evolve into the Cinderella story of the 2013 postseason. Loser? Turns into a pumpkin to be carved up during the opening round.
There's no hotter NBA team west of the Heat than Denver. The Nuggets have won 20 of their previous 24 games.
If there is another team that is scary sizzling in the Western Conference, it's Memphis. The Griz is on a 14-1 tear, with the only loss during the stretch on South Beach.
It might well take 55 victories for the Nuggets to clinch the No. 4 seed in the conference. Beat Memphis, and, for a delightful change, Denver will be in prime position to haul coach George Karl out of the first round of the playoffs.
"I'll be nervous no matter who we meet in the playoffs," Nuggets general manager Masai Ujiri told me the other night, when Anthony was in the house, warming up to get booed by Denver fans.
Don't worry. Be happy.
The Nuggets would fold, spindle and mutilate the Los Angeles Clippers in the playoffs. Get the No. 3 seed and face Golden State in the first round? That would be a walkover for Denver.
In fact, here's a bold prediction: Beat Memphis, and I will go so far to say the Nuggets have a 10 percent chance of advancing to the NBA Finals.
Yes, this year.
Of course, Ujiri has taken great pains to let everybody know these Nuggets are too young to be a contender.
Once again, I'm more bullish on this team than the guy who built it.
Ujiri owes me a quarter, by the way.
I wagered him there would be louder jeers than cheers in the Pepsi Center when Anthony took the court wearing a New York Knicks jersey.
Guess I was right.
Then again, Ujiri has always given my basketball acumen the respect it deserves.
"I'm going to make you my assistant general manager," Ujiri told me, a sly grin crossing his face.
I said: "Oh, really. What's the salary? 250?"
Ujiri retorted: "No way."
Showing deft negotiating skills, I floated a new proposal: "When I said 250, it wasn't for $250,000, of course. I meant $2.50."
Ujiri: "You're hired."
My first task: Delivering pizza to Karl on the bench.

Have you ever come in contact with a person that you did not know, and for some reason that you couldn't understand, you just felt evil from that person, or just sensed that they were dangerous and up to no good? Now I don't mean someone who looked mean or malicious in outward appearance, more someone who by all other accounts looked normal, but put off an evil vibe that your extra senses picked up on? Has anyone ever freaked you out and you couldn't quite figure out why? If so, do you believe that this is a hidden survival instinct that human beings have or is it true extra sensory perception?

Haha, for the most part, I don't. I think I come off as more of an extrovert here (I suppose as most people do), but I'm extremely introverted (not shy, so don't get that confused. I'm not shy) and really anti-social. I also have terrible social skills (was that obvious on here? Lol) you most likely wont get more than a sentence from me in real life. XD and I hardly speak what I think. I prefer to keep everything to myself. ^_^

Others think the opposite, that I'm an overly-conscientious social recluse who is maybe too smart for my own good but frequently unwilling to share it.
That latter group is a bunch of boring intellectual sloths, but don't seem to believe me when I tell them so, nor understand why that effects how I interact with them.
I do tend to be more animated and talkative online, but I think this is due to my INTP personality type. Online, I have the time to thoroughly consider my speech and expressions, while offline I must interact in real time or come off as "slow" -- which is what most my peers thought of me when I was in school, until they realized I consistently scored higher on tests than the person who wound up being our high school valedictorian (btw: Homework is just a ploy to keep teenagers out of trouble; if one pays even just a little bit of attention during school hours, and has a level of cognitive ability above that of a paramecium, homework is of little use academically; thus why I was not valedictorian).

Same with here, I pick and choose questions, especially if I don't want to take the time to research who's right or wrong. I am now avoiding really hot topic issues (just like I do in real life) like gay marriage, abortion, evolution, religion, anything about Obama, and basically other polarizing issues. Those topics just never go anywhere.

" Even thou most people have chosen yes, but in reality its a No, because it depend with the people you contact with at that time. And most times people act online, lets say Facebook, no one has a sad lifestyle there. Everyone is trying to show their good part. Some have neighbors whom they have never talked before but once they are on Facebook you might think their best friends. Most times this online thing is always fake.

The Lake Forest Elementary School tree, slated to come down this summer, may get a second life after all. Mark Newell, a North Augusta-based archaeologist, is trying to arrange donating the near-century-old tree's wood to Augusta State University's fine arts department for sculpture classes. If the college agrees, the tree will live on as artwork.

Five knives in two days is enough to make Richmond County school officials nervous, but the age of the supposed offenders is rattling educators even more. A 9-year-old Houghton Elementary School third-grader apparently brought a 10-inch hunting knife to school Wednesday, showing it to another student, who told administrators Thursday morning, school police said. The knife has a 4 1/2 -inch blade with a smooth edge.
If you stand on Sussex Road and listen carefully, you just might hear the sound of blood boiling. The gentle notes of birds singing hello are what really greet your ears as you walk down the shaded streets of the Brynwood subdivision. There are other noises, a distant lawn mower battling weeds, an occasional car, though it is mostly quiet. But simmering beneath the normalcy is the sound of a neighborhood in uproar.
Maybe it was Mother Nature's way of sweeping away all that pollen, so visitors won't sneeze so much next week. Or maybe it was just her way of teasing Augusta with near-natural disaster right before The Big Show begins. Whatever the motivation, Friday's wacky weather wasn't enough to totally derail last-minute Masters Tournament preparations, though it did slow some down. While some rural counties reported tornadoes, Augusta and Columbia County suffered no more than an up-and-down period of heavy rain, pockets of sunshine and more heavy rain.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is reviewing the proposed Richmond County high school on Old Waynesboro Road and will issue an opinion about the site next week. The agency was asked by Virgil Fowler, chairman of Richmond County's emergency planning commission, to provide "technical analysis" about the site, said Bill Taylor, an EPA official in Atlanta. Construction started in October at the site, which is near two chemical plants but also residential areas, an elementary school and a hospital.
Augusta officials should immediately pursue a way to free up $15 million to ease traffic and train congestion on 15th Street, commissioners agreed after being briefed on their options Friday. Commissioners asked Administrator Randy Oliver to work with U.S. Rep. Charlie Norwood's staff to try to broaden the law regulating how the federal funds, already appropriated, may be used to solve one of Augusta's main traffic headaches.
Zeke is reeling in his line. Richmond County Associate Superintendent Willie Mazyck, a fixture in Augusta schools for 26 years, announced Wednesday he will retire when this school term ends. His decision stunned school officials, who now must decide how to fill a job that handles some of the system's heaviest duties. "You know I tried to talk him out of it," said Superintendent Charles Larke, whom Dr. Mazyck told of his plans Monday.
Suddenly, Richmond County has one elementary school with two sets of administrators, managers and teachers who have to be moved to new jobs a year ahead of schedule. School trustees decided Thursday to move Lake Forest Elementary School students to Forest Hills Elementary School for 1998-99 while construction crews expand Lake Forest to combine the schools by the 1999-2000 term. There's too much risk in having children at Lake Forest while construction encircles the Lake Forest Drive campus, officials decided.

Blockbuster Continues To Explore Various Recapitalization Opportunities, Reaches Forbearance Agreement With Senior Secured Note Holders
DALLAS, July 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Blockbuster Inc. (NYSE: BBI, BBI.B), a leading provider of media entertainment, today announced that it has entered into a Forbearance Agreement with certain of its senior secured noteholders that provides the Company with additional time and flexibility as it continues to engage in productive discussions with certain of these noteholders and strategic parties regarding various recapitalization opportunities. Blockbuster's Forbearance Agreement is with noteholders who have, collectively, represented that they hold approximately seventy percent (70%) of the Company's 11.75 percent senior secured notes due 2014. Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement, the noteholders executing it have agreed, through August 13, 2010, from exercising certain rights and remedies they may have under the indenture and related collateral documents arising from the failure by Blockbuster to make the payments owing by it under the senior secured notes on July 1, 2010. The Forbearance Agreement provides that the parties may extend the forbearance period upon written agreement.Given the terms of the Forbearance Agreement, Blockbuster has determined that it will not make the payments due on the senior secured notes on July 1, 2010, constituting a $23.9 million amortization payment (inclusive of a 6.0% redemption premium) and an $18.5 million interest payment. By taking this action, Blockbuster will preserve $42.4 million in incremental liquidity. Jim Keyes, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Blockbuster Inc., stated, "We appreciate the ongoing support of our senior secured noteholders and other parties involved in our ongoing exploration of recapitalization opportunities. The Company determined that entering into the Forbearance Agreement and not making the payments at this time are in the best long-term interests of the Company and our stakeholders. The agreement provides us with additional time and flexibility as we continue to take steps to implement a more appropriate capital structure to support the Company's strategies for long-term growth and enhanced financial performance as we pursue a balance sheet recapitalization. While we are making progress in our recapitalization efforts and are in the process of negotiating term sheets with these parties, these are complex multiparty negotiations and take time. We currently expect any recapitalization to significantly reduce our debt and increase our financial flexibility." "We continue to manage the business towards maximizing cash and liquidity and monitoring cost reduction opportunities and operational efficiencies," Keyes continued. "At the same time, we remain squarely focused on providing our customers with day-and-date availability of new releases any way and anywhere they want them."

Latest news from the Pacific Northwest

How do you keep kids from becoming smartphone zombies?
The other day my 13-month-old daughter taught me something. She taught me that we're wrong about smartphones and technology. It's not the new way of life. It never will be. Staring at a screen all day is just not natural.
I've always been divided on this issue, as a child of the tech-boom, but Elliette, my daughter, set me straight.
She and I were sitting in a lounge area the other day, and to my right was a mom and her two teen kids. There was an eerie silence. Not only were the two teens engrossed in their smartphones, but mom was too.
Elliette is at a stage where she tries desperately to get a stranger's attention and make them laugh with a silly face. It normally works, but this time it didn't because the strangers were staring at a phone screen.
In that moment, the joy of human interaction was gone. It was stolen by Candy Crush.
I'm not offended that they didn't pay attention to my daughter. I'm offended that a human moment was stolen. It's the first time I've seen this in such an extreme way.
Like any new parent, I began to panic and racked my brain for ideas to prevent my daughter from turning into a phone zombie, no offense to that family.
Luckily, Dr. Megan Moreno at Seattle Children's Hospital is looking into this very thing - and holding a conference on it right now.
"We hear stories in clinic of teenagers who describe going to parties and no one at the party is even talking, they're just all in their own bubbles of looking at their phones," says Moreno. "Sometimes they're even texting each other, which is just a very different type of social interaction than what we're all used to."
The conference combines the forces of pediatricians, lawyers, teachers and leaders in the business, technology and journalism communities. Everyone's looking at the healthiest way to use smartphones and social media.
They say parents are the first defense, and when kids start asking for a smartphone it can put parents in a tough situation.
"I think one thing we often see in clinic is that there is this feeling that parents need to get their kid a phone for safety," says Moreno. "That is a reasonable argument, especially for some families where that child has to commute a long way. I don't know if that's an argument to get a smartphone.
"The other thing that we hear is that there is this feeling that you need to have this type of phone to keep up, and sort of keep up appearances."
Many parents can relate to that feeling. And Moreno says sometimes parents that are less tech savvy than their kids hesitate to make rules about technology for their kids.
"I think that's one thing that we try to really consistently emphasize is that parents don't have to be technology experts. They don't have to know Angry Birds to say, in this house at 7 p.m. all the phones go in this drawer and that is that."
Moreno says that technology use can also help parents. Before, parents were relegated to snooping through diaries.
Now, if a parent is concerned about their child, a quick scan through a Twitter or Facebook feed could reveal what they're struggling with.
"We've learned a lot about the way adolescents talk about various health behaviors on sites such as Facebook and Twitter," says Moreno. "For example, we've done some studies related to alcohol displays on Twitter, and we've learned some ways parents can use that information to have really fruitful discussions with their teens about alcohol use as well as about privacy online."
So looking through the eyes of a child too young to play with a smartphone can be very telling. There can be too much of a good thing. Although, my daughter, at 13 months, already knows how to unlock my iPhone.
The SMAHRT conference will be happening through Saturday if you're interested in attending you can go to Seattle Children's website for more information.

Letters to God
Because this movie is opening in limited release, and did not screen in our areas, we are unable to review it. For your convenience, we have provided some brief information about the film's synopsis and content.
This movie is inspired by a true story.
After being diagnosed with cancer, eight-year-old Taylor Dorherty (Tanner Maguire) begins writing Letters to God. Although his mom (Robyn Lively) doubts his notes will have any influence on the disease, the postage does prove to have a profound affect on the people around him—especially the mailman (Jeffrey Johnson).

I'm starting to get worried that what i've pushed off as normal childhood behaviors may be something more.
We've been in contact with DD's teacher (shes in the 1st grade) about her falling behind with her school work, and during our last conversation she hinted that if things dont get better she may suggest talking to our pediatrician, and that often with girls they hide things and ADHD may not be caught as easily.
*My daughter is extremely empathetic
*Very loving and sweet
*A VERY good rule follower and people pleaser especially with people she doesnt know very well.
*She cannot sit still for a meal - has never once been able to. She gets up and down and constantly is moving.
*The teacher said she has trouble in larger groups with instructions.
*Plays very well by herself and will play make believe for hours - will play that she is a puppy alll dayyyy lonnnngggg
*She can be spastic - but its only in front of people she knows very very well. The teacher said she is JUST starting to see it 6 months into the year. My parents, who see her very often, have only seen her like this once.
*I have to tell her multiple times to do things - like getting dressed in the morning takes over an hour. She will go into her room and start playing, talking to herself and i have to go in multiple times to tell her to get dressed, and then to tell her to brush her teeth.
*She gets very emotional - often its because i start getting angry that i have to remind her again and again and again to do something. For example - every day she knows she has to empty her backpack and lunch bag. It has NEVER happened without being reminded. Often it gets half done and then there will be a water bottle on the counter, her bag on the floor, lunch box on another counter and she's off in another room doing something else.
*She is also a nail biter and constantly has her hands in her mouth.
Does this sound like your daughter?

Back in the 1930's, a smear campaign was created by competing industries including Paper, Petrochemical, and Cotton in order to destroy the hemp industry. A PR campaign was created to lump hemp in with marijuana and the "reefer madness" wave sweeping the nation at the time. In 1937, this pressure led the U.S. government to ban growing industrial hemp. Even though it has been proven that THC levels are far too low for a person to get high on, over 60 years later the US Government maintains a ludicrous position against growing industrial hemp to continue to benefit the powerful economic interests of these competing industries.

Install libinput by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr \ --disable-static \ --with-udev-dir=/lib/udev && make
Running the testsuite for this package can be dangerous, as it
creates a number of dummy input devices on the currently running
system that can lead to crashing a local X server or a desktop
environment. If you understand the risks and have the optional
Check-0.10.0 and Valgrind-3.11.0
packages installed, the regression tests can be run as the
root user with
make check. Note that depending
on the system configuration and hardware, some tests may fail.
Now, as the
root user:
make install
If Doxygen-1.8.11 and Graphviz-2.38.0 were
present during the build, you can install the generated

The Probate Court in Los Angeles will hold a trial next month on Shelly Sterling's proposal to sell the Los Angeles Clippers for $2 billion.
Her husband, Donald, who three doctors say is mentally incapacitated, opposes the sale and his attorneys may try to block the transaction during the four-day Probate Court trial which will start on July 7, news reports said.
Looking at the big picture, the two attorneys said there have been increasingly more legal fights involving relatives over trusts in California. It used to put stepparents up against children of a deceased spouse, but now siblings are fighting amongst each other or with their older parents, Gillick said. Often, it becomes financial elder abuse. "It's vicious," she adds.
When it comes to this case, Donald Sterling recently called the National Basketball Association "despicable monsters" and "a band of hypocrites and bullies." The NBA has imposed a $2.5 million fine on Donald Sterling, banned him from the NBA for life, and could force him to sell the team in response to a racist rant that was later released by TMZ.

SCISSORS AT THE READY: Logan Cunningham, Martin Atkinson, Jess Williams, Shanel Quinn, Guiseppi Quinn and Donato Quinn at the Milford Haven salon. PICTURE: Milford Mercury. (5988108)

A CHANCE to get ahead and support three cancer charities is being offered by a Pembrokeshire hairdressing family.
On Friday, June 6, Todaro's will be donating all the money paid for men's haircuts in its Haverfordwest and Milford Haven salons to the Paul Sartori Foundation, Shalom House and Prostate Cancer UK.
The charities have been chosen in memory of the business's founder, Frank Todaro, who passed away in April at the age of 83, following a long battle with prostate cancer.
Said company director Michael Todaro: "As a local family business, we feel it is important to support charities which, in turn, have supported our own family members.
"Our Milford Haven salon also has close contact with cancer patients through its specialist wig cutting and fitting services, and we are always complimented on the caring, supportive service given by by Maria and Domenico Todaro in this area of work."
Anyone in need of a trim and wanting to help raise money for these special charities should contact either the Milford Haven or Haverfordwest salon.
