Murder and the mentally ill
February 4, 2013
It took liberals in Congress just weeks after the mass murder at a Connecticut school to come up with a list of 157 pistols, rifles and shotguns they want to restrict in the United States....
LOL! @Neo, none of those fit the catagories I was speaking about....but sorry you took it the wrong way :)

"if we took ten years of sending NO MONEY out of the US"
No money for oil -- that's a big sum!
No money for cellphones manufactured in Asia, we'll make our own. Oops, no money for minerals we don't mine here, so we'll have to go back to "brick" phones & "bag" phones.
Oh, you only meant foreign aid? Ok, military aid is a big item.
Oh, you only meant developmental aid? How much is that?

GuyOO7 had a valid point. I think we need to start by weeding the bad apples off the welfare system. Our society is SO full of people who claim because they cannot work because they have a mental illness-like bipolar disorder. But that doesn't stop them from drinking and driving, having babies and milking our system dry. Many of these people could hold down a job-but can't because they claim they can't deal with the stress? If we cut off aid to all the career welfare moms who keep having kids to keep their gravy train rolling in we would have enough money to take care of the people who are truly mentally ill and need long term care.Here's where a social worker could really start to make a difference in our society-start by stop enabling these bums!

SocialWorks,so you do not believe that we(U.S.A) should be helping the truly,indigant poor(not by their choice) of the world? Having travelled to most of the world,and having seen the poor in 3rd world countries,my travels have opened my eyes to the reality there is very little poor in this country. Granted,there are deserving poor that need assistance,but unlike in 3rd word countries,governmental structures,environmental conditions,lack of education(which is free and accessible in the U.S.),lack of health care facilities(which abound in the US),and lack of vital natural resources(becoming so in the US)have kept them poor and desrving of help. The US is the greatest nation in the world,and in the eyes of those people who have nothing,help from us is welcomed. In the US,where most of the poor are such by choice,thsse bums demand assistance from the government and certainly do not welcome it!!!

Think about it....if we took ten years of sending NO MONEY out of the US and poured it into schools, mental health, shelters and programs we would be sooo strong as a nation. Then with our problems under control, we as a much stronger nation, could help the entire planet. Wishful thinking I guess.......

America is known as the "band-aid" center of the world. Look at the condition of our schools, our nursing homes, our mental health system, our homeless shelters. We can sink tons of money into other countries while people suffer right on our own doorstep.

@Jane: Heck, I agree with you on that! However Medicaid and insurance won't pay for long term care, and communities cannot afford to pick up that cost either. As to walking out whenever they want, that is there right unless they are a danger to themselves or others then they can be kept for a longer period. Everyone that I know that went to Camden had a discharge meeting with everyone involved. Either we get the government and insurance companies to pay for more treatment or pay higher taxes for levies to go towards treatment.

BakerKat said it all "the needs ofthe mentally ill are not being met." They need help in the form of quality, professional,long term care-based mental health wards and institutions-not behavioral band aid stations.

SocialWork Rocks- I can put up a stand on the street corner-sell lemonaid and cookies and call it "a restaurant." But that doesn't make it "a restaurant." Alright-you're correct that Camdem does have a "behavior unit." But it's funny how you never adressed my other comments. If people go there they should know exactly what help they can realistically get there.

@Jane: and I quote from you "The reason Camden Clark does not have a mental ward is because they can't find a qualified person to run it." End quote. All I said was they do have a unit. Got my facts straight, just dont want you putting out the wrong info. LOL!

SocialWork Rocks-one last comment. You failed to mention that when someone goes to the crisis unit you spoke of-they can check themselves out any time they please? Also after they check themselves out there is no follow up plan. It is just highly suggested that patients seek help from the mental health professional of their choice and that's it? How is this system helping anyone?
5 Agrees | 5 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Guyoo7 and BakerKat are correct. Thanks to touch feely liberals-people with serious and dangerous mental illnesses do not have to take their meds unless a judge orders them too. And to get to that step they have to do something drastic and end up in jail-or do something horrible. Bring back the institutions-save the people!
6 Agrees | 7 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Socialworkrocks-get your information straight. I used to work for an organization that sent clients in crisis there. Is there a trained psychiatrist on duty 24/7? No. Pumping people full of meds and observing them-most often by just a nurse-and releasing them out into the general public after the crisis period has subsided is not a full functioning mental health unit. It's a drive through-fast food mental health unit. What our area needs is a ful functioning mental health unit where people can be treated on a LONG TERM-as opposed to drive by-basis.

When the meds were developed, mental institutions became much easier to manage. So much easier, that patients could be moved from those large & distant facilities, to smaller centers & halfway houses closer to the community. But only half of this was done.
2 decades later, this country would grant amnesty to illegal aliens already here, & close the border to further illegal immigration. Again, only half was done.
When the parts of a solution are supposed to go hand in hand, it requires at least 2 hands. Why is that so hard to see? To borrow from the song "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?" (Peter, Paul, & Mary): When will they ever learn?

@Jane: "shaking my head sadly" Camden Clark DOES have a behavioral health unit to deal with people in crisis. Trying again to post invalid information?

The Elizabethan Poor Law of 1601 (a government program) dictated that the insane be placed in institutions to protect society from them. Similar types of programs(although improved) continued in both Britain and the U.S. until the concept of deinstitutionalism became prevalent in the late 1960s placing the mentally incompenent out to mingle with the sane,but not until the psychiatrists had poured addictive depressants and mind altering addictive substances into their many times frail or weak systems to curb their anger and violent moods. Since you cannot monitor or force the mentally unstable to take their medicine violent crime has increased substantially since deinstitutionalization. Restore institutionalization and the reign of terror and violence will be substantially reduced.

The government is the ones who shut most of those type of facilities saying it was against their rights to hold them there. Now they wander, live under bridges, etc. Wow this is so much better eh? Great guv. fix on that.

jarhead -- you missed Mr. Myer's point, which was that the government can't solve the problem of mental illness, & therefore shouldn't try. Your point was just the opposite, that government can & should.

I agree with some of what BakerKat stated. The biggest problem with the mental health profession are the people working in it. So many choose making money over giving quality care to their patients. The reason Camden Clark does not have a mental ward is because they can't find a qualified person to run it. This would require someone be there on staff on a 24 hour basis and apparently no mental health professionals in the area are willing to do that. They are trained to treat problems by throwing pills at them. And as BakerKat mentioned-too many of these medications are experimental and have side effects that only make matters worse. But I do think that mental institutions are the way to go. Unless the patients have family members to depend on-the patients go on welfare and are left to live on their own with no supervision.

The needs of the mentally ill are NOT being met. It was cruel to lock them all up - well that was cruel, not all need that, but some DO! The pills they shove at these people make some worse. How many of these events were caused by people on some of these less studied drugs? Maybe families who lost their children should sue big Pharma, as they care less about making us healthy and more about making money. Having a broken brain is no different than having a broken leg. We need to stop stigmatizing people so they feel comfortable in seeking help, and that help needs to be more readily available. Yes that would cost money, but at what price to the rest of society if we do nothing.

Education of school employees and guidance counselors to recognize individuals with mental illness, and training for them to help families understand what they can expect and how do deal with mental illness in the family...and infrastructure in place where they can go to get treatment is our best bet as a society.

Comic Books
One might not think comics and the rough and tumble game of professional hockey would be a good match, but think again. Last year, Stan Lee and the National Hockey League announced that Lee would create 30 superheroes for NHL teams. Of course, the comics connections don't end there – at one point "Spawn" creator Todd McFarlane was co-owner of the NHL's Edmonton Oilers. There are, in fact, numerous examples of hockey and comics colliding. Here's one more.
The Los Angeles Kings are holding a tattoo contest encouraging fans of the team to show off their King's themed ink to win up to $1000. Friend of CBR Kristina Morgan took up the challenge and submitted the following entry – a superhero themed Kings player called "Super Kings Girl."

Good luck , Kristina – you have our vote for the most impressive hockey themed tattoo we've ever seen!

OAKLAND -- A day after Mark Jackson's actions were questioned regarding the demotion of assistant coach Brian Scalabrine, the Warriors' best player, Stephen Curry, came to the defense of his embattled coach.
Curry said that he and the entire team supported Jackson's decision to exile Scalabrine, even if the particulars for the move were not fully spelled out to the players in a team meeting about it.
"Obviously, we didn't know the ins and outs of what happened and what the details were," Curry said Wednesday. "That's not our place to know. Our job is to go out and play basketball, win games, and that's what we're focused on. When it comes to being united, our team is as strong as it's ever been, and regardless of what's being said, we're all together, and we back Coach Jackson 100 percent because his track record has been pretty solid since he's been here."
Curry said that when Jackson explained the Scalabrine decision, it was fairly clear that it was the result of a difference of opinion that may not have remained behind closed doors.
"The reasoning we got yesterday was what Coach said, that he expects his staff to be tight," he said. "Everybody can have different opinions, but he expects them to be tied together when they leave the room. If that isn't the case, he's got to make a decision. What happened beyond that, I don't know, but that's a good enough message for me, and we can move on."
Independent of the controversy, Curry said Jackson was a primary reason the Warriors had elevated their status the past two seasons and added that he loves playing for him.
"The transformation we've had since Coach Jackson has been here is obviously evident, and it's raised the expectations," he said. "We're on pace for the best record in 20 years. That's a sign of good change. I understand what he's done for us being in the locker room every single day just observing from my rookie year to now. Mostly all of that is because of him. So what people say, what criticism he takes, I know he takes it on the chin and it doesn't waver his confidence about leading us. That's what I admire most about him."
Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo Sports wrote of "an increasingly dysfunctional atmosphere" in his report of Scalabrine's reassignment.
Jackson, told of Curry's complimentary comments, joked about them at first.
"He's dysfunctional," Jackson said. "According to (Grantland writer) Bill Simmons and Wojnarowski, he doesn't know what he's talking about. In all seriousness, I don't expect anything less. He's a guy I have tremendous love and appreciation for."
Jackson refused to elaborate on the Scalabrine decision. He also disputed reports that he was interested in other jobs and that he went weeks last season without speaking to his lead assistant Michael Malone, now head coach of Sacramento Kings. Malone also denied that.
"I will say this: I had two great years in Golden State," Malone told The Associated Press on Wednesday. "And the one thing that has been reported that I would contradict is that Mark Jackson and I still have a relationship. We still speak. We never went weeks without speaking to each other, and it wasn't just a conversation of, 'Hey, how you doing?' We spoke as an assistant coach and a head coach. He hired me to help him, and that's what I did in my two years there."
"I'm not going to comment on everything, but Mike Malone commented and said his part was a lie," Jackson said. "So there you have that. It's poor reporting by Wojnarowski if he knew this to hold onto it until yesterday. That's blockbuster stuff. So it's not true, none of it is true. This is my job, and I'm thrilled to death to be head coach of the Golden State Warriors."

You can take the coach out of the game, but you can't take the game out of the coach, at least not with former Oak Ridge High School coaches Jill Prudden and David Scott.
The two great coaches for the Oak Ridge Lady Wildcats basketball team will be offering a pair of free basketball camps at the Oak Ridge Boys and Girls Club for causes that are near and dear to them. Just don't call it a comeback.
"David and I both have a similar mindset," coach Prudden said. "We both love the game. It has been so good to us I think we both just thought what a great opportunity to give back."
Coach Prudden and coach Scott will host their first camp March 26 from 6:30 to 8 p.m. for children with special needs for boys and girls in kindergarten through sixth grade. The camp will feature one-on-one instruction and each participant will receive a free T-shirt.
"The clinic will provide a great opportunity for special needs athletes of all ability levels to learn and develop basketball skills in a fun environment," according to the brochure.
Pre-registration is required and due by March 19.
The second clinic will be for the girls of the Scarboro neighborhood on April 2. Girls in kindergarten through sixth grade will get to learn from two of the best to ever coach at ORHS. The camp runs from 6:30-8 p.m. as well and all participants will get a T-shirt thanks to the camp's sponsors.
Clinic registration forms are available at the Boys and Girls Club. For more information or if you would like to help sponsor the camps, email coach Prudden at firstname.lastname@example.com.

OAKLAND -- Oakland Athletics owner Lew Wolff surprised Oakland and Alameda County officials with an announcement Wednesday that his team has reached a 10-year lease agreement to stay at O.co Coliseum and will consider sticking to Oakland even longer if a new stadium is built at its current site, not on the waterfront.
"It's a big deal. We would like to have sufficient time to digest our options (concerning a new stadium), which we've been doing for the last five years," Wolff said by phone Wednesday.
"We have agreed we will take another look at Oakland" as a site for a new A's stadium, Wolff said, "but only at the Coliseum site."
The deal announced by Wolff and baseball Commissioner Bud Selig, who in a statement threw his support behind Wolff's contention that a stadium site at the Howard Terminal near Jack London Square is not feasible, occurred as Oakland City Council members gathered behind closed doors at City Hall to discuss the pending agreement.
Councilman Larry Reid, who is vice chair of the Alameda County-City of Oakland Joint Powers Authority that governs the Coliseum, said the statements were premature.
"We were all surprised to read the comments made by Mr. Wolff and certainly by Commissioner Selig because we're still in negotiations with the A's," Reid said. "We were waiting to see how that meeting went tomorrow. We want to make sure we do everything we can to keep the A's within the city, but it's got to be a lease agreement that's in the best interest of both the residents of Alameda County and certainly the residents of the city of Oakland.
"Fans should not exhale just yet, but you know, we're getting close," he added.
The JPA board is meeting on Friday and likely will approve the contract. The authority, city and Alameda County supervisors must all sign off for the lease to be extended to 2025.
Oakland Mayor Jean Quan also appeared surprised by the announcement. "We are all working to make sure the A's stay here at home in Oakland," she said. "The JPA has been negotiating with the team for months. As recently as last night, they received a new counteroffer from the team, which we have not yet had opportunity to review in depth. ... We plan to meet tomorrow, continue negotiations and hope there will be an agreement soon."
Alameda County Supervisor Nate Miley, chairman of the JPA, said the authority was still fine-tuning the details of the agreement but planned to finalize them Thursday.
"We very much appreciate Commissioner Selig's support for Oakland to be the home of the A's," Miley said in a statement. "We also agree, and we believe the A's do as well, that long-term the Coliseum is the best site for them in the East Bay."
Oakland leaders had recently expressed some misgivings about details of the tentative deal. So did Raiders owner Mark Davis, whose vision for a new football stadium could be complicated by the long-term A's lease on the site the two teams share.
A blogger who has been following the negotiations called the deal a "double edge sword because both the A's and the Raiders are competing for the single most feasible site."
"The Raiders and the A's are making statements to appear as if they aren't competing, but it's clearly evident (they are)," said Rhamesis Muncada, a San Jose resident who runs NewBallPark.org. "Raiders will take lease approval as a step toward siding with A's, moving Raiders out. A's will think the same if Raiders reach a deal to build Coliseum City."
Muncada, who had supported the A's now-defunct bid to move to San Jose, said the problem for Oakland and Alameda County "is that they want to retain all teams but don't have the resources to keep more than one, and they've been unwilling to choose between the two."
Wolff said, "I think it's a more-than-fair deal for both sides. There is an exit clause if the Raiders come through with whatever they're planning."
Asked about his level of confidence of the government agencies voting for the deal, he said, "I'm hoping because of the process we've gone through and because the transaction is beneficial to the county and the city and the JPA that the vote will go well. But I don't vote."

Does the challenge have to be announced before the round starts? I was playing in a tournament last year and after the round was over someone on my card came up and said to hand over my tag because they beat me. They never mentioned it during or before the round. Was this legit?
On the Iowa Tour page it says that tags are not to be pooled during an event and that challenges are one on one. I tried telling people this last year and every time they said that all tags on a card are to be pooled. Whats the call on this?
If someone does not have a tag during a round and wants to buy one afterwards should they be able to be included in the challenge for tags?

ingredient information
Milk Pasteurized Cultured Organic
Cultured milks are products made by use of special lactic acid bacteria cultures. They fall into two broad categories. Those made by use of lactic acid bacteria which grow well at ambient temperature (25-30°C). Such lactic acid bacteria are known as Mesophilic starter cultures. The other type of cultured dairy product is the one made by use of lactic acid bacteria which grow well under warm conditions (38 - 45(C) The lactic acid bacteria used are technically known as Thermophilic starter cultures. Yoghurt or yoghurt like products belong to this group. Cultured milk products have been enjoyed in the Middle East, Europe, and parts of Asia for centuries. The Greeks felt that yogurt had therapeutic qualities for diseases caused by intestinal disorders. Bulgarians attribute their good health and longevity in part to their daily intake of cultured milk products. The most common of the cultured milk products are yogurt, kefir, piima, buttermilk, and quark or cottage cheese. Yogurt is simply milk thickened to a custard consistency by certain acid-forming bacteria growing in it. The special bacteria that turn milk into yogurt are lactobacillus bulgaricus, lactobacillus acidophilus, and streptococcus thermophilus. The coagulation and the fermentation of milk sugar into lactic acid is caused by these bacteria. This action curdles the protein in yogurt and acts as a preservative. The bacteria in yogurt have already begun to break down the protein molecules into lactic acid, making it easy for the body to assimilate. Thus yogurt is helpful for people who have lactose intolerance, because they lack an enzyme that helps to digest milk sugar in regular milk. Yogurt helps the digestion process to move along smoothly and quickly. In the Near East, babies are frequently fed yogurt for two or three months after they are weaned. Breast fed babies receive bacillus bifidus, a bacteria similar to lactobacillus bulgaricus found in yogurt. Organic food is produced by farmers who emphasize the use of renewable resources and the conservation of soil and water to enhance environmental quality for future generations. Organic meat, poultry, eggs, and dairy products come from animals that are given no antibiotics or growth hormones. Organic food is produced without using most conventional pesticides; fertilizers made with synthetic ingredients or sewage sludge; bioengineering; or ionizing radiation. Before a product can be labeled "organic," a Government-approved certifier inspects the farm where the food is grown to make sure the farmer is following all the rules necessary to meet USDA organic standards. Companies that handle or process organic food before it gets to your local supermarket or restaurant must be certified,

As you might have guessed this is going to be a brazen and shameless plug for the command line. I write it to throw in my tuppence-worth after my own Linux experiences. I am also concerned about a new generation of users coming to GNU/Linux without a proper understanding of the underlying reasons for its superiority over Windows but this not a blow by blow comparison.
Since I began using GNU/Linux the desktop has made enormous advancesand recently, with the imminent release of Windows Vista hoving intoview there has been some understandable hubris in an attempt to showthat if Vista is going to have it the Linux desktop probably already hasit: 3D desktop, wobbly windows and rotating cubes. However, leavingaside the fact that GNU/Linux was often designed to run on fast andstable on low end systems that Windows simply couldn't hack (no punintended), even old 486 systems, the arrival of memory and processorhungry graphical bells and baubles might be construed as a retrogradestep. I hate to seem ungrateful or churlish in saying this as someonewho can't (yet) program for toffee but I am not alone. Some writers,like the estimable JemMatzen, think that the desktop is heading in the wrong direction andI have a good deal of sympathy with him. I have always found his websitefull of Linux goodness and good sense. It's well worth a visit.
The problem for GNU/Linux programmers, designers and writers inluring Windows users away is to make the transition as painless aspossible, as user friendly and familiar as possible - but withoutobscuring or compromising the reasons hardened and seasoned Linuxers useit. In other words, security, stability, choice and ethical integrity.At one extreme you have Xandros which attempts to replicate aWindows lookalike environment. It and other distros frequently succumbto a virulent outbreak of myitis - my pictures, my music etc. At theother extreme you have the uncompromising austerity of distros like pureDebian 3.1, SlackWare or Gentoo which take no prisoners and make relatively fewconcessions to sissy Windows users.
How can the circle be squared? How can you introduce and promoteGNU/Linux to a new generation of users without selling its manifestvirtues short and diluting it to the point where it starts to look likea Windows clone? Starting from the command line would be likeintroducing a computer virgin to Windows by way of a DOS tutorial or afirst lesson in that digital midden, the registry.
That said, the solution does lie in the command line - not any oldcommand line, but a command line explained in an approachable friendly,knowledgeable manner and most importantly, buttressed by hundreds ofworked examples as they say in maths textbooks. This is the key to a goodbook on the command line and it is probably the biggest selling point. There are manyprolific and enthusiastic GNU/Linux writers: Kyle Rankin and MarcelGagne to name but two. Let me add Scott Granneman to that list. He has asubstantial output both in treeware and in cyberspace. His latest offering _Linux Phrasebook_is 382 pages of wholesome command line goodness. Every command is givena robust workout by way of those vital examples and whether you are a beginner or anintermediate user you are sure to discover some little nugget you didn'tknow. This book may be small enough to fit in your pocket (or, in my case,accompany me on the exercise bike!) but it covers all the familiar basesyou would expect: file attributes, file navigation, permissions,ownerships, networking (including wireless), piping, less, more, grep,monitoring system resources, installing software' printing, filetransfer. You could do a lot worse than cite it as a prime example of how to sell the command line and that is why I decided to give it an honourable mention in this blog.
One of my favourites has always been the alias command. In some waysit is the perfect touchstone of the power of the command line andshowing and explaining it to the newcomer could enthuse them. Onceyou've worked in the virtual terminal and experienced the sheer powerand flexibility of it and seen the computer do your bidding it isexhilerating and you will never feel the same again about rsi-inducingclick and point. As Solon, the Athenian Lawgiver and lyric poet might havesaid: "Call no man happy who has not mastered the command line." You'rein control, not Bill Gates or Steve Ballmer. A moderate investment oftime will yield a disproportionate accumulation of power and control.After that, as Arthur Daly would say, the world is your lobster.
Any book on GNU/Linux which failed to include a chapter on softwareinstallation would be fundamentally deficient. You will be be relievedto hear that if you decide to shell out your hard-earned pounds ordollars for books like Linux Phrasebook you will not be disappointed but... well, there isa but and it is no criticism of the author. Software installation andpackage management is a big subject, and I mean big, very big. Wholebooks could be and have been devoted to it.
For example I'm currently in the middle of reading Michael Jang's_Linux Patch Management:Keeping Linux Systems Up To Date_ (PrenticeHall, 2006).It is one the admirable books in the Bruce Perens' OpenSource Series and you can do yourself a favour by pointing your browserat the website.In the true spirit of open source many of the books are free for (pdf)download under the OpenPublication License but please think about buying the odd book byway of giving back in return for so much given so freely.
Even Jang's book, which introduced me to some useful and powerful Yumcommands, is not definitive or exhaustive. Authors like Granneman do enough withApt-get and Yum to ease the reader into a complex, powerful and criticalarea. He recognises this and at the appropriate points in thetext inserts useful web references which will themselves lead on toother web-based sources and this should be the benchmark for all good books on the subject if newcomers are to be fully empowered GNU/Linux users.If you still need your graphical comfort zone and your havingone of those pig-out evenings when you just want to get that latestpiece of software on your machine sans alpha-geek customisation optionsand flags then there is always Synaptic, Gnome-Apt, Adept, Kyum,Portage, Yumex et al. GNU/Linux is all about choice and you can haveit all.
Books like this are a timely reminder that the command line mattersand why it matters. After you have read it you will know that GNU/Linuxwas written by people who knew what they were doing for people who wantto know what they are doing. Despite that it is a truism that theabsolute beginner will probably need to paddle around in the graphicalshallows before tentatively dipping a cautious toe in the deep end ofthe pool. HicSunt Dracones!
Like death and taxes the command line will always be with us - but atleast it is a positive good. Distros come and go, fancy graphicaldesktops fade in and out of view but the command line endures andtherefore there will always be a renewable audience for authors like Rankin, Gagne and Granneman. I foresee reprints for such authors and when they do cutdown a few more trees what about a generic title: "How I StoppedWorrying About The Future Of The Graphical Desktop and Learned to LoveThe Command Line". For those who like the infectious enthusiasm of Marcel Gagne but sometimes findhis style a little too effusively baroque, authors like Scott Granneman are a welcome antidote - less in your face, ironic, self-deprecating but alwaysreassuringly knowledgeable.
"We'll always have Paris", Humphrey Bogart said to Ingrid Bergman inthe iconic climax of Casablanca - and we will always have thecommand line. Here's looking at you kid!

Are you kidding me? My kubuntu box totally tweaked(window manager, services, suspend2) still runs dog slow on my PIII . xp on the otherhand literally flies!!
I have my doubts
I feel it's my duty to respond to these comments as quickly as possible.
I have a dual-boot system right here (it's not mine, BTW), with XP and Ubuntu (not tweaked). Windows XP is generally less responsive than Linux - and that's BEFORE installing anti-virus software & C which will make it even slower.
Maybe you need more RAM? Or maybe something in your computer is not playing well with Linux. OR, try to install Ubuntu which in general seems to be less memory-hungry.
I'm not sure KDE (kubuntu) was meant for low end systems... Try a desktop environment like XFCE (xubuntu) or ditch the desktop environment and use only a window manager (such as enlightenment). With out saying exactly what tweaks you're making, your post doesn't really add much to a discussion and comes off as flame bait.
One thing though, Linux is more memory hungry than CPU hungry... I can run enlightenment on my 400Mhz computer and it runs great; this box has 384MB RAM though.
Another Perspective on CLI vs GUI
Gary Richmond writes: "Despite that it is a truism that the absolute beginner will probably need to paddle around in the graphical shallows before tentatively dipping a cautious toe in the deep end of the pool."
A couple years ago Richard Wareham wrote an interesting article refuting that view. I won't attempt to do his article justice in the brief space of this comment, but his basic thesis was that the CLI is better matched to how humans go about their non-computing life and that learning CLI first can give you a sense of mastery over the computer before you are forced to deal with the baffling array (sometimes literally!) of options that GUI interfaces frequently confront you with. I think it is well worth a read:
Unix Power Tools
Another excellent book for users who want to master the full potential
of the shell and basic command line utilities is the latest edition of
Unix Power Tools, published by O'Reilly. If you want to show how commands can be used, and combined,
in all sorts of ways to solve a plethora of problems, this is the book to recommend. (It would be best for someone who already
knows the basics and is ready to tap into the full flexibility of the system).

Woodland came of age with Krakowski in backfield
BEACON FALLS -- Great football games can turn legendary with nicknames. The NFL has the Ice Bowl, the Heidi Game and the Music City Miracle. The Valley has the Halloween Game.
In 2003, Woodland Regional High School was barely two years old and had a fledgling football program enjoying its first season in the Naugatuck Valley League. The mad-scientist-like Chris Anderson had his Hawks at 5-2 entering their first-ever showdown with Naugatuck on Oct. 31.
What ensued was much more than one football game. When Pat Krakowski caught the game-winning 16-yard touchdown pass from Jared Katchmar as time expired to give Woodland a 40-37 win, the momentum in the storied Valley began to swing toward the new kids on the block.
That watershed moment may never have happened, though, if it weren't for Krakowski's leadership on the final series.
The Greyhounds defended the Hawks' spread offense all night with a cover zero, so Anderson decided to move Krakowski from his usual running back spot to a fifth wide receiver position. It worked to open up the field, and the teams traded touchdown after touchdown in the fourth quarter.
Naugy took a 37-34 lead with 32 seconds left when Sean McConologue scored on a 5-yard touchdown run, but Woodland immediately got into scoring range when Katchmar connected with Krakowski on a 41-yard screen.
At the Naugatuck 16-yard line, Katchmar fired three incomplete passes to bring up fourth-and-10 with 7 seconds remaining. Five guys involved with calling and executing the final play — Anderson, Katchmar, Krakowski and assistant coaches Tim Phipps and Tim Shea — can take it from here.
Anderson: "We had a post corner route on. I think Pat originally was the inside receiver."
Katchmar: "(Anderson) called the play and the formation. The way he called it, he had Pat running the middle, and they were guarding more of the middle. He switched with (Matt) Trzaski. Naugy didn't really expect that. There was a lone corner on Pat."
Krakowski: "I liked being in that position and took the leadership role. I told (Trzaski) that I was going to run the corner and he was fine with it."
Phipps: "Chris was very upset initially because he thought Pat had gotten the formation incorrect. When we saw the play develop, I said to Chris, 'He's running the right pattern.'"
Anderson: "They moved him to the outside so he would be the primary (receiver). He ended up running the corner route and catching the ball. I remember turning to Coach Shea, who was also in the booth, when the referee lifted his hat up and we looked at each other like, 'It's over! We won!' We couldn't even believe it."
Katchmar set a then-NVL record with 437 passing yards and four touchdowns. Krakowski, who called the game the "turning point in our program history," finished with 11 catches for 177 yards. He added two rushing scores and one program-changing decision.
"The next film session, Chris said he was proud of Pat for taking it upon himself to make that decision," Phipps said. "That encouraged kids to take a little more ownership of what this offense could do."
It all went back to the reasons Anderson said Krakowski was the only three-time captain in team history.
"For him to believe in us and follow that path of blind leadership really set the tone," Anderson said. "There was never a day where I wondered if Pat was going to come to practice or if he was in trouble. He was always so dependable. And he was tough as nails."
Mike Stankus, who blocked for Krakowski for two years, said he remembers Krakowski's work ethic and tenacity in game situations.
"He was just an animal," Stankus said. "He'll get tackled, but before the defense gets up he pops up and he's already back in the huddle before they get up. He just loved to pound the rock."
Krakowski said his longtime friends by his side made his quiet style of leadership easy.
"I loved the game and I guess all the guys just followed my lead," said Krakowski, who is among the NVL's all-time top 10 in career rushing yards, touchdowns and points. "Growing up around here, we always heard about the Ansonias and the Seymours, and we thought we could play with them."
In 2004, they did. The Hawks finished 12-0, pitched seven shutouts and won their first of two straight NVL and Class SS state championships.
"The whole journey, starting from the Naugatuck game, with a bunch of friends who started with nothing and ended with a state championship was unbelievable," Krakowski said. "We felt like we had put Beacon Falls on the map."
And Krakowski had put himself in rarified air.
"I don't think there will be a better football player than him to ever come through there," Katchmar said. "He might not have been the best athlete, but he's the best football player to come through that school."

MARIETTA - An old Marietta motel is getting new life and a face-lift inside and out.
Mahesh and Neeru Nichani of 129 S. Fourth St. bought the Econo Lodge May 13, after it been closed for about two years, at a Washington County sheriff's sale for $700,000.
The motel at 702 Pike St., next to the Comfort Inn the Nichanis also own, has been vacant with a sign out front announcing it is private property and not to trespass since 2011.

"This has been an eyesore for the two years it's been shut down," Mahesh said.
The two-story, 48-unit motel will open by Jan. 1, weather permitting, as a Red Roof Inn.
It is the third hotel project to be opened or started in the past 18 months in Marietta. Developer MPH is building an $8 million Comfort Suites next to its Fairfield Inn and Suites on Cherry Tree Lane, near Pike Street and County House Lane. The company is targeting a December or January opening of its Comfort Suites. Fairfield Inn and Suites opened April 17, 2012.
Marietta-Washington County Convention and Visitors Bureau Executive Director Jeri Knowlton said in June most of the region's hotels are full because of the contractors and other people connected to the oil and gas industry working in the area.
Dave Sweigard, Washington County Building Department building official and inspector, said he inspected the property two years ago before it closed. A few of its rooms were unsellable because of their condition.
"The owner has done several years of renovations with the Comfort Inn," Sweigard said. "I anticipate he'll be doing a fair amount to this one, too."
Mahesh said he is planning $260,000 in renovations and crews already have started making repairs. The property is getting a new water line because the existing one is cracked. It needs a new electrical meter after American Electric Power previously removed it.
He also said the roof needed some repair work.
In addition, Sweigard said the owner is checking on some structural issues and the work will include cleaning and painting. All the furniture has been removed and donated to a local church; however, no one on site knew which church was the beneficiary.
Marietta architect Michael H. Scott is working on plans.
Sweigard said the building might have once been a Briargate Inn, built in 1974 after the current Comfort Inn next door. That Comfort Inn originally was a Ramada Inn.
Red Roof has 345 inns in 36 states, employs more than 6,000 people and serves millions of guests each year. The closest is at the Seventh Street exit of Interstate 77 in Parkersburg.
"It will cater mainly to the contractors coming with the oil and gas drilling," Mahesh said.
Mahesh said he plans to hire 12 employees about a week before the motel is set to open.

SANTA CLARA -- The 49ers are still the reigning NFC West champions for at least one more day, perhaps another week and even possibly one more season.
The Seattle Seahawks failed to clinch the division and the NFC playoffs' No. 1 seed Sunday, losing 17-10 to the Arizona Cardinals.
The Seahawks (12-3) can still dethrone the 49ers atop the NFC West and secure home-field advantage if they rebound next Sunday at CenturyLink Field against the St. Louis Rams (7-8).
For the 49ers (10-4) to win a third straight NFC West title, they'll need Seattle to lose to the Rams while the 49ers win their remaining two games.
The 49ers need to win only one of those two games to secure a third consecutive playoff berth. They host the Atlanta Falcons (4-10) on Monday night in the final scheduled game at Candlestick Park, then the 49ers conclude the regular season next Sunday at the Cardinals (10-5), whose victory Sunday kept their playoff hopes alive.
The 49ers currently are slotted as the No. 5 seed, and if they retain that spot, their playoff opener would be against either the NFC North or NFC East champion. The New Orleans Saints (10-5) fell to the No. 6 slot by virtue of their loss Sunday to the Carolina Panthers (11-4).
Carson Palmer's 31-yard touchdown pass to Michael Floyd gave the Cardinals the lead for good with 2:13 remaining. Karlos Dansby made a win-clinching interception with two minutes remaining.
It was Seattle's first home loss since the 49ers won 19-17 there on Dec. 24, 2011, in the "Crab Saved Christmas" game, to paraphrase 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh's description of Michael Crabtree's catch that set up a winning field goal. The 49ers lost their ensuing two games in Seattle by a combined score of 71-16.

Plaque in cameo glass : satyr holding out a bunch of grapes to the child Dionysus
The Dutuit Plaque was created using a glass-making technique similar to that used for cameos. This technique is only familiar on account of some twenty or so objects, vases and panels, of which the Portland Vase in the British Museum is the most famous example.
This plaque is decorated with a Dionysian scene. In a rural countryside setting, a young satyr, sat on a rock, is holding out a bunch of grapes to the child Dionysus. Dionysian themes were extremely popular in the decorative arts of the era of Augustus.
The Dutuit Plaque is closest in style to the Portland Vase in the British Museum, dating from the Augustan period. However, in the landscapes on the other cameo glass items, the rocks have a more architectural character. The young satyr's rustic seat has its equivalent only in decorative reliefs or in cameos such as the Naples cameo.
The theme of the child Dionysus, raised by nymphs, playing with satyrs on the hill of Nysa, the rocky seat of the young satyr and the taste for nature expressed here, recall the Greek creations in the 4th century BC of Praxiteles, the creator of the Hermes and Dionysus of Olympus, or Lysippus, an artist whose work took him to the court of Macedonia, to Alexandria and to Sicily. His Dionysus on Helicon from Thespies was sat on a rock, with his left leg tucked under him, heel uppermost and his right leg extended. In his left hand was a thyrsus (staff) and in his right hand possibly a bunch of grapes.

Signs That Chinese Automakers Are Getting Closer to the U.S. Market
October 21st, 2013
I like Chinese cars.
Not because I believe they are especially well designed or engineered to exceptional tolerances, but because I think it's fun to browse through images and see how often they blatantly rip-off international car designs.
There's a Lifan that looks like a Lexus, a Hawtai that looks like a Hyundai, a Shenboa that looks like a Saab and so many more. Everything from the design of the F-150 to the MINI Cooper has been shamelessly copied by a Chinese automaker for sale in its home market.
Now there are signs that China is getting ready to export West.

OAKLAND -- Warriors general manager Bob Myers called Jordan Crawford "dangerous," an element that was clearly lacking in the team's bench after losing Jarrett Jack in free agency.
It was the biggest reason Myers pulled the trigger on acquiring Crawford and fellow guard MarShon Brooks from the Boston Celtics on Wednesday in a deal that also sent offseason acquisition Toney Douglas to the Miami Heat.
The 6-foot-4 Crawford should give an immediate lift to the Warriors off the bench and also add playmaking that they weren't getting from Douglas. He was averaging 13.7 points, 5.7 assists and 3.1 rebounds per game for Boston in the fourth NBA season.
"We like the fact that he's a ball-handling guard who can create his own shot," Myers said. "We like the fact that he's shown he can distribute the ball this year in a more point guard primary role."
Crawford, 25, also has another quality, much like Jack, that was appealing to Golden State.
"He's not afraid of the moment -- he takes big shots, makes big shots," Myers said. "He's dangerous, which is a word I like to use for a player like that. He can score points in bunches, and that's a factor we were missing coming off the bench."
Finding a player to spell Stephen Curry, who is among the league leaders in minutes played, was another key element in making the trade. Douglas was averaging just 11 minutes per game, and while strong defensively, wasn't cutting it as a scorer or playmaker.
"In the past, I always thought his foot was on the gas pedal to score the basketball," Jackson said of Crawford. "This year, he did a much better job of getting other guys involved, and he's enjoying his best season thus far."
The 6-5 Brooks is a shooting guard who has played sparingly with Boston this season, averaging 3.1 points in 10 games. The 24-year-old spent his first two seasons with the Nets and averaged 12.6 points a game as a rookie while the team was in New Jersey.
"He a young guy who's trying to find a home," Jackson said. "He will get that opportunity. He will not leave here and say he didn't get a chance."
Myers noted the trade would not have been consummated without the Heat's involvement, because Boston was seeking future assets. The Celtics got center Joel Anthony and draft considerations from Miami.
"Everybody got something out of it that they liked," Myers said.
Myers said the Warriors are still a little more than $2 million under the luxury tax threshold in the wake of the deal but added that wouldn't preclude the club from making another deal before the Feb. 20 trade deadline.

News 12 First at Five / Monday, Oct. 15, 2012
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- We're learning new details about the death of a disabled Augusta man.
Investigators say Angela Mercer and her daughter Deaidra Motley hid the death of their son and brother for months. His body was left decomposing in the bedroom at their home on James Drive. Investigators are calling it an unthinkable case of neglect.
Neighbors tell investigators every now and then they would see Robin Adams being pushed in his wheelchair by his sister or mother, but until Friday, no one had seen him for months.
They're accused of hiding the death of their son and brother. The coroner says 23-year old Robin Adams may have been dead inside the home for more than three months.
"I've seen similar cases, but this is one of the worst ones that we've ever seen. It's beyond words how you describe the neglect that leads to this type of death," Richmond County Coroner Grover Tuten said.
The Coroner's Office is working with the GBI Crime Lab to determine how and when Adams died.
"We may not ever actually have the true cause of death. When the body goes in such an advanced stage of decomposure. It's hard to figure out the cause of death. Starvation. How do you prove starvation?" Tuten said. "It takes extensive, extensive testing."
They say the body had started to mummify, and even though dozens of air fresheners were found in the home, it was past the point of smelling.
"When they show King Tut's body how the skin is stretched and dried and pruned looking, that's mummification," Tuten said.
"And these two women were living there, day in and day out?" News 12's Katie Beasley asked.
"Yes, they didn't call anybody. It's just ridiculous," Tuten replied.
Investigators say Adams was born disabled and had the mental capacity of an infant.
"When you lay someone on the bed and then you don't go back for days and days and days on end to check on them ... how cruel can that be?" Tuten said.
It's a case that will keep the Coroner's Office busy for weeks, maybe even months.
"I go to a homicide, he's laying there with a bullet hole -- one in, one out -- that's an easy case. It's these kind of cases that will drive you crazy," Tuten said.
But in the end, he wants justice for this victim.
"I'm hoping that they prosecute this family to the fullest extent of the law and I hope we do everything we can to prove our case to put this family in jail. This is just ridiculous. No one, no one needs to be treated like this," he said.
On Friday, investigators arrested Angela Mercer on a bench warrant from a traffic citation. That's when they were called to the home for a welfare check. We know Adams collected some form of state aid.
Mercer and Motley went before a judge Monday afternoon to hear their charges. Right now, they're being charged with concealing a death, but the investigation is just beginning, so others could be added.

It was announced Jan. 22, 2013 that Third District public defender Karen Duncan would become the Third Judicial District Judge by Gov. Mark Dayton. This announcement comes after the retirement of Casey Christian, the long-time Third District Judge for the communities of Dodge, Fillmore, Freeborn, Houston, Mower, Olmsted, Rice, Steele, Wabasha, Waseca and Winona Counties.
Duncan is the daughter of Les and Gladys Lewis and grew up on a farm near Lewisville. She is also a 1978 graduate of Truman High School.
Her commencement came March 1, 2013, when she was officially sworn in as the Third Judicial District Judge. The event was viewed by friends, family and more than 200 attendees. The ceremony lasted about an hour long, said Duncan's mother. She said Duncan was honored to have retired Judge Gerald Wolf come out of retirement to swear her into the position. Duncan had worked as a law clerk for Judge Wolf after graduating from law school.
"We were obviously very proud of her," said Gladys. "She is a very dedicated, hard worker, and she's always prepared."
These are good qualities for a judge. Gladys said Duncan had enjoyed her previous position as public defender, but was looking forward to the new challenge. Duncan said she believes she can do more good as a judge than she could as the public defender.
Though the first few weeks will be challenging for Duncan, the opportunity will allow for her to spend less time traveling and more time with her family. In a quote following her commencement, Duncan said she would be happy staying in the Third District until her retirement.

Surf the Web, block pop-ups, and keep spyware at bay with this lean and fast open-source browser
Mozilla Firefox is a fast, full-featured Web browser. Firefox includes pop-up blocking, tab-browsing, integrated Google search, simplified privacy controls, a streamlined browser window that shows you more of the page than any other browser and a number of additional features that work with you to help you get the most out of your time online.
Firefox 3.5 is based on the Gecko 1.9.1 rendering platform, which has been under development for the past year. Firefox 3.5 offers many changes over the previous version, supporting new web technologies, improving performance and ease of use, and adding new features for users: It is now available in more than 70 languages, includes a Private Browsing mode, better performance and stability with the new TraceMonkey JavaScript engine, the ability to provide Location Aware Browsing using web standards for geolocation, support for native JSON, and web worker threads, support for new web technologies such as: HTML5 < video > and < audio > elements, downloadable fonts and other new CSS properties, JavaScript query selectors, HTML5 offline data storage for applications, and SVG transforms.

Used for Zotero, or when Chrome presents difficulties.
I've been a Firefox user ever since it was first launched. But lately I've had to deal with a lot of crashes, mostly related to printing. I've tried everything but now gave up annoyed by losing work all the time.
I switched to the only other browser capable of remembering individual page zoom levels which to me is a must-have: Google Chrome.
Sorry not for me, 3.6 with plugins is still too slow when launching compared to safari with plugins. Still useful to have as a secondary browser for developing purposes.
Firefox become very fast in 3.6; differences between Safari and others are now marginal and more ore less just a matter of opinion. Firefox seems now even uses native Mac OS X menus. Even when Fx is not my first choice OS X browser, it is good to have it around for some uses. No problems at all.
I'll take Firefox over Safari any day. Love my Firefox, and my themes, and my add ons. I very rarely have performance problem.
Although firefox is sluggish compared to Safari, it is still the quintessential browser for web development. The Firebug and Web Developer plugins have been necessities in my toolbox for years!
Guy's, seriously, give Safari a shot. It's ten times faster IN EVERYTHING. Startup time, better memory management, less cpu intensive (saves like 20 minutes of battery time)... there are no extensions that could replace these features.
I've been tinkering with Firefox for years. I still love it but not under OS X.
Firefox 3 on OSX is a great improvement over Firefox 2. It starts faster and is less of a memory hog. It probably helps that they switched to cocoa. The default skin also resembles the Unified theme. I used to use Camino for a long time because it was faster than Firefox 2, but I have switched back to Firefox due to these improvements.
Firefox 3 is much less memory hungry than it was previously.

Patrolman R.J. Knox of the Ravenswood Police Department investigated a three-car motor vehicle accident that occurred on Washington Street at the off-ramp of the Ritchie Bridge Sunday. Ravenswood Patrolman N. A. Cummings and first responders assisted Knox on the scene.
Kelly Summers of Crab Orchard, WV, was coming off the ramp of the Ritchie Bridge in her 2006 Ford Fusion with three passengers, Travis Summers, Savannah Summers and Samantha Garrett, when she continued through onto Washington Street colliding with a green 1998 Buick Park Avenue. The vehicle was operated by Deborah Vandall of Ravenswood and was traveling north on Washington Street.
The impact caused Vandall's vehicle to slide sideways into the southbound lane on Washington Street and make contact with a silver 2011 Chevy Cruz operated by Sheila Humphreys of Pataskala, OH. Humphries had stopped on Washington Street, and was waiting to turn left onto the Ritchie Bridge.
The impact from Vandall's vehicle pushed Humphreys' car across the northbound lane until the car rested on the side of the road near the parking lot of Hartley Oil.
Summers stated that she was driving off the bridge and turned left, and that she did not see the stop sign.
Garrett, who is pregnant, was transported to CAMC Womens and Children's Hospital located in Charleston to be checked out. There was no word on her condition.

Most MKV files that I am streaming (Godfather, Planet Earth) have subtitles, if they are hard coded, I can play them on VLC player without subtitles so I think that eliminates the hardcoded subtitles. On the PS3 I cant eliminate the subtitles from there so I figured the problem is the streamer, how do I go about it to disable the subtitles in these films?
Thanks and great program!
