TOKYO — Starting from the fall collection, Link Theory Holdings Co. Ltd. has appointed former Issey Miyake designer Naoki Takizawa to design Helmut Lang's men's wear line.
This story first appeared in the April 14, 2010 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
"I've been a fan of Helmut Lang since the Eighties, so I approached president and chief executive Ricky Sasaki, who is an old neighborhood friend of mine, directly," the designer said. "Helmut Lang is a ground-breaking brand that introduced a new kind of men's style pairing T-shirts, jeans and middle-gauge knits with jackets. The brand is primarily worn by independent men who prefer a minimal style. Drawing from the brand's heritage but also incorporating current fits, global sizing and my knowledge of materials and textiles, I want to address a void in the contemporary market."
The brand was acquired by Theory from Prada in 2006, after founder Helmut Lang had already left the label. It made a second deb ut under the husband-and-wife design team of Michael and Nicole Colovos, founders and former designers of the denim brand Habitual.
"Now the ladies' line is going very well, but the men's has slowed down a little. Michael and Nicole concentrated on ladies', so we appointed Takizawa, who understands the true nature of the men's line and Helmut Lang's history. We want to continue moving forward while also referencing the brand's DNA," said Sasaki.
Currently, annual sales of this brand are around 2 billion yen, or $214.7 million at current exchange.

U.S. Sen. Roger Wicker made stops in Meridian Friday, visiting Meridian Naval Air Station and the downtown area.
The Republican was appointed to take Trent Lott's seat on an interim basis in December. He's also a candidate for the permanent position. An election will be held for it in November.
Wicker said Meridian and NAS Meridian are important to national security and international stability.
"We're continuing to make the case to put those things in the future year's defense plan," said Wicker. "And make sure that we upgrade the runways. We were fortunate to be able to take a little Katrina money and repave all the roads there. We want Meridian Naval Air Station to always be state of the art, so no commission would ever put them on a base closure list again."
Former democratic governor, Ronnie Musgrove, is also running for that seat.

Lafourche residents want gravel road paved
Published: Tuesday, January 24, 2006 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, January 24, 2006 at 11:49 a.m.
CHOCTAW -- Residents of this swamp-lined community tend to avoid the mostly gravel Laurel Valley Road that connects to La. 308, but there are times when the bumpy passageway is unavoidable.
One of two routes out of the Sixth Ward, the road is the shorter option for Choctaw residents but not always the easiest.
"We pass there because its so much shorter" than the alternative route along La. 20 that passes through Chackbay on the way into Thibodaux, said Annette Andras, a lifelong resident of the Laurel Valley community. She lives along the paved portion of the 5-mile road.
Laurel Valley Road is in relatively good condition, Andras said, crediting Parish Councilman Mike Delatte with improvements in recent years.
Still, "when it rains, its like a washboard. You have to go slow," she said.
Parish officials say they simply dont have the money to do the necessary work.
But Laurel Valley Road residents arent ready to give up.
The condition of the unpaved section presents more than an inconvenience, Andras said. It can also mean the difference between life and death.
Her brother lives on the gravel span and, due to a heart condition, requires frequent trips to Thibodaux Regional Medical Center. Laurel Valley Road is the shortest route, but as the condition of the roadway fluctuates, so can her brothers chance for survival.
He has "a hard time getting out when the roads bad," she said.
In years past, she said, ambulances have been unable to quickly reach her brother because of the road.
Delatte acknowledged that the road is used often. "Its a real big shortcut for the people of Choctaw and Kraemer and part of Chackbay."
And the need to fix it is heightened by the expansion of north Thibodaux and increased congestion along La. 20, he said.
On Delattes and councilman Tommy Lasseignes recommendation, the Lafourche Parish Council recently authorized an $80,000 contract with a local engineering firm to do preliminary design work on upgrading the roadway.
But theres no money to pay for the roadwork itself so the projects future remains uncertain. Laurel Valley is not among the roads scheduled to get an upgrade as part of a $15 million parishwide road-work plan.
"It is a considerably bad road," said Parish Administrator Cullen Curole. "Its a thoroughfare we would like to go ahead and pave if we can find the funds."
For Andras, 71, the work could not come soon enough.
"My daddy used to always say, ëWell never see that road fixed, " she said. "Lord, I hope I can see the day."

In the most comprehensive review of changes to extreme rainfall ever undertaken, researchers from the University of Adelaide, evaluated the association between extreme rainfall and atmospheric temperatures at more than 8000 weather gauging stations around the world, the telegraph reported.
"The results are that rainfall extremes are increasing on average globally. They show that there is a 7 percent increase in extreme rainfall intensity for every degree increase in global atmospheric temperature," lead author Dr Seth Westra said.
"Assuming an increase in global average temperature by 3 to 5 degrees Celsius by the end of the 21st century, this could mean very substantial increases in rainfall intensity as a result of climate change," he said.
Dr Westra, a Senior Lecturer with the University of Adelaide's School of Civil, Environmental and Mining Engineering and member of the Environment Institute, said trends in rainfall extremes were examined over the period from 1900 to 2009 to determine whether they were becoming more intense or occurring more frequently.
"The results show that rainfall extremes were increasing over this period, and appear to be linked to the increase in global temperature of nearly a degree which also took place over this time.
"If extreme rainfall events continue to intensify, we can expect to see floods occurring more frequently around the world." Dr Westra added.
The strongest increases occurred in the tropical countries, although some level of increase seems to be taking place at the majority of weather gauging stations.
"Most of these tropical countries are very poor and thus not well placed to adapt to the increased risk of flooding, which puts them in a larger threat of devastation," he said.

Another symbolic question: I often see in icons of the crucifixion the sun and a cloud on our Lord's right and the moon and stars on His left- do these symbolize Christ's Lordship over Creation, Time, the events at the Crucifixion or something else?
In Christ,

The Sun is darkened and the moon shown at noonday on the day of the Crucifixion. That event is shown in the Orthodox Icons. Note the sun is red the color of an eclipse.

Yea, I will have to echo Thomas, I've only heard of it being a reflection of the historical events of the Crucifixion.
"If you are going to serve the Lord, be prepared for times when you will be put to the test. Be sincere and determined. Keep calm when trouble comes. Stay with the Lord; never abandon Him and you will be prosperous at the end of your days. Accept whatever happens to you. Even if you suffer humiliation, be patient. Gold is tested by fire and human character is tested in the furnace of humiliation. Trust the Lord and He will help you. Walk straight in His ways and put your hope in Him. " Sir 2:1-6

Here is a reply I got to this question on the Euphrosynos Cafe from Father Deacon Nicolai, posted for everyones' edification:
"Through the Cross came our Salvation. We are constantly reminded that Christ died for us, and that He rose from the dead. The Image of the crucified Lord reminds us of this. This page allows you to navigate through an explanation of the Orthodox Cross. Each step shows a close up of that part of the Cross, as well as its explanation and any words on it. The main source for this is a document written by Fr. Theodore Jurewicz.
The top bar is the title-board which Pilate ordered to be hung in mockery over Christ's head on the Cross. On this board was inscribed: "Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews" in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin (abbreviated to the Greek initials 'INBI' or the Latin initials 'INRI' in the Western tradition). This is replaced with the Christian inscription: "King of Glory" — below the knees of the angels. On the title-board is inscribed the initials 'IC XC', being the first and last letters of Christ's name in Greek. In addition, just above Christ's arms we see the inscription: 'NIKA', which in Greek means: "He conquers" or "He is victorious." Frequently, we see these last two inscriptions together: 'IC XC NIKA', meaning: "Jesus Christ is victorious" (over death and sin).
The middle bar is that on which the Lord's hands were nailed. On either top corner we see the depiction of the sun (left) and the moon (right), for "The sun hid its light, and the moon turned to blood." (Joel 2:31) The inscription: "Son of God" is placed on both sides of Christ's head, and below His arms we read the inscription: "Before Thy Cross we bow down, O Master, and Thy holy Resurrection, we glorify". The halo of Christ is inscribed with three Greek letters meaning "The Being" or "He Who Is", to remind us that Christ is the same God Who identified Himself with those words to Moses in the Old Law.
The slanted bottom bar is the foot-rest. There is some question of whether it was actually on the Cross of Christ, but it is acknowledged to be a necessary attribute of the Cross, worthy of veneration and prophetically alluded to in the words [Let us] worship the footstool of His feet... (Ps. 98:5).
In prayers for the Ninth Hour, the Church likens the Cross to a type of balance of righteousness:
"Between two thieves Thy Cross did prove to be a balance of righteousness: wherefore one of them was dragged down to Hades by the weight of his blasphemy whereas the other was lightened of his transgressions unto the comprehension of theology. O Christ God, glory to Thee."
The meaning of this prayer is as follows: the Cross of Christ stood for a scale of justice between the two thieves: for one of them sank in to hell, dragged down by his blasphemous words; and the other, the wise thief, ascended into heaven, because of his repentance. The church fathers attempted to render tangible the thought of the unfaithful theif going to hell for his blasphemy throught the just judgement of God (the lower end of the bar), and of the wise thief going to heaven for his repentance and his praise of God (the upper end).
On the Cross is our Savior, Jesus Christ. Note that He does not wear a crown of thorns, and that His feet are nailed with two nails. Behind the body of Christ, on either side, are a lance (which pierced Him) and a sponge (which was soaked with gall and offered to Christ to drink) on a pole made of reed or cane. On the body of Christ is depicted blood and water flowing forth from His side. Below the feet of Christ are four Slavonic letters meaning: "The place of the skull became Paradise". Hidden in a cave under the earth is 'the skull of Adam'. We are thus reminded that Adam our forefather lost Paradise through the tree from which he wrongly partook; Christ is the new Adam, bringing us Salvation and Paradise through the tree of the Cross. The city of Jerusalem is depicted in the background, for He was crucified outside the city walls.
The Troparia:
Before Thy Cross we bow down, O Master, and Thy Holy Resurrection, we glorify.
O Lord, save Thy people and bless Thine inheritance. Grant Thou unto Orthodox Christians victories over adversaries, and by Thy Cross preserve Thy people.
The Kontakion:
O Thou Who wast lifted up willingly on the Cross, bestow Thy mercies now upon Thy nation which beareth Thy name, O Christ God. Gladden with Thy power Orthodox Christians, granting them victories over adversaries, as they have Thine assistance, a weapon of peace and the invincible trophy.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

After Long Illness
Eddy Foster Dies at 75
"Professor Eddy E, Foster, 75, of Alfred, who formerly chaired the Agricultural Division of Alfred State College, and builder of Foster Lake, bearing his name, died on Dec. 22, following a long illness.
"Born on a farm near Prattsburg, he attended Prattsburg High School, Franklin Academy, and Genesee Wesleyan Seminary before earning his B.S. and M.S. degrees from Cornell University. His professional career centered on agriculture and conservation.
"Foster began teaching at Canton State College in 1929. Later he worked for the Long Island Lighting Company. For a number of years, he was a member of the board of directors of the Ellis L. Phillips Foundation, New York City. He came to Alfred in 1941 and established the first courses in forestry and conservation at the two-year college there.
"After his retirement, in 1959, he became prominent as a grower of Christmas trees. His "premium nursery grown" trees, as they were known in the trade, were sold as far away as Ohio, New York City, and Connecticut.
"Throughout his life, he was interested in informal education. He chaired the Allegany County 4-H board, was president of the Allegany County Extension Service, and was a director of the District Forest Practice Board and a member of the State Forest Practice Board. He also chaired the three-county Resource Development Committee. Last year he shared in planning a Public Affairs Forum at Alfred State College.
'He was a member of the Wesley Foundation at Cornell and Alfred. At one time he chaired the board of trustees of the Union University Church, Alfred. He was a member of the Alfred Rod and Gun Club and the Allegany County Bird Club.
"A founding director of the New York State Forest Owners Association, he hosted at his plantations an annual meeting of the New York State Christmas Tree Growers Association. He was twice awarded the John N. Thompson Forestry Award He was a long time member of the Hornell Rotary Club and of the Alfred Village Planning Board.
"He is survived by his wife, Alice Phillips Foster: his daughter, Cynthia (Mrs. John) Clements, Mt. Prospect, Illinois; his son, Dr. Phillips Foster, College Park, Maryland; a brother, Francis Foster of Bath, six grandchildren, and several nieces and nephews.
"A memorial service was held at the Union University Church, Alfred at 2 on Tuesday, Dec. 27. The family received friends at the Union University Church Center following the service.
"The family suggests that those who wish may contribute to the Eddy E. Foster Memorial Fund to advance the cause of ecological education or to the American Cancer Society. Donations to the memorial fund may be sent to President David H. Huntington at Alfred State College."

Sergio Martinez: "Hey Vanes, Did You Forget My Name?"
By Rick Reeno
On Friday morning, BoxingScene.com posted an open letter from undefeated junior middleweight Vanes Martirosyan. In the letter, Vanes called out some of the names at 154-pounds, including Alfredo Angulo, Cory Spinks, Sergei Dzinziruk and Paul Williams. Feeling left out, WBC champion Sergio Martinez has come knocking.
Martinez is looking for a fight in December. If Vanes wants a shot at the title, Martinez is prepared to make the fight.
"Hey Vanes, did you forget my name or are you another p*ssy like Sergio Mora and Joshua Clottey? What big fight are you looking for? I'm ready for you right now. You don't need to look for anyone else - I'm right here. You want a big title shot? Let's do it in December. I'll fight anyone for my country. Are you willing to do the same for your country? Don't be a coward. Show some balls," Martinez said.

Nyack ESL Outreach Applauded
The ESL and Modern Language and Linguistics Departments at Nyack's New York City campus were recently recognized by the Downtown Learning Center (DLC) in Brooklyn for their outreach initiatives to train ESL volunteers in faith-based organizations in the New York metropolitan area. During the graduation ceremony for 131 GED graduates and other students served by DLC, Prof. Peg Bowen, Director of ESL, was presented the award. The group cited an "appreciation for the department's dedication and contribution to the intellectual and spiritual growth of the tutors and students of the Downtown Learning Center."
For more than a year the NYC campus has been the site for free workshops developed for pastors, teachers, and ESL workers. Topics have included "Teaching with Technology (for the technically challenged)," "Literacy for English Language Learners (How to Teach Reading)," and "Methodology." Representatives from leading educational publisher Pearson Longman have been on hand at the Nyack workshops to distribute free books to participants.

This Conference is an occasion to identify and promote the best museum, heritage and conservation projects around the world. This year's edition will take place from 23 to 25 September 2010. During these dates a parallel event, the Creative Heritage Forum, has also been organized.

I have to make a confession: I was obsessed with researching Relacore, so we created an in-depth review, examining the side effects, ingredients, level of customer service and clinical studies. We additionally scrutinized hundreds of dieter comments and reviews posted all over the web. At this point we condensed everything we found in order to give you the facts you need.
What You Need To Know
First off, Relacore is a line of products primarily for fat loss and weight management. These include Relacore Extra ($29.99), Relacore PM ($29.99) and Relacore Fat Burner ($29.99). However, Relacore Extra and Fat Burner are available as "the ultimate fat burning belly bulge kit" for $47.96. These supplements are supposed to help improve your mood, lower stress levels, cut belly fat, boost energy and fight mid-day fatigue. The ingredients used in these include B vitamins, passion flower, magnolia bark, Chinese skullcap root, Asian ginseng, poria extract, phosphatidylserine, perilla leaf and jujube fruit. The bottle is small enough that you'll have no trouble taking this one to work or on the go.
Relacore has been around since 2000. It is a Carter-Reed Company and has a great BBB rating. The official website provides a 100% money-back guarantee and the ingredients are likely all natural, but read on…
This isnt a pill you take to lose weight without changing your lifestlye at all.
Lack of Scientific Research – "Worrisome?"
Our first problem with Relacore ingredients is that they're just not clinically proven. "We took a close look at the company website for Relacore supplements, and it's clear that no scientific studies are presented. There is simply a lot of hype about weight-loss and stress reduction," said our Research Editor.
One customer said, "I purchased Relacore to reduce belly fat, which it did not do."
Another stated, "This product was a disappointment. Not only does it taste bad, I felt or saw no results after taking for a month as directed."
There's no doubt negative reviews are out there, but what about positive ones? We found one customer that said, "So maybe I am buying expensive vitamins, but it works. Before I tried this I was hungry all the time."
Another shares, "I eat healthy. exercise regularly, and this supplement works for me."
Scroll below for one of the best products we've seen over the last year.
Class-Action Lawsuit – What's Happening?"
We found a website dedicated to a class-action lawsuit against the Carter-Reed Company that claimed "false or misleading" statements were made. There was a settlement. As of 2015, the issue was still in the courts.
Side Effects – "Watch Out!"
Many dieters are experiencing Relacore side effects. One customer said, "I experienced flu like symptoms. I stopped taking them and the very next day I felt right as rain."
"I took this product a total of one day! It made my heart race and I didn't even take the whole dosage," said another user.
Not everyone felt the same. A customer said, "Gonna give it another try.. No side effects!"
Another saw no negative reactions, "Seemingly no untoward side effects."
The research we have conducted has proven that if an aspect of a diet formula or weight loss program is especially annoying (a painful/difficult exercise routine, pills that cause side effects, no clinical results) the chances of success for the long term are not good. In other words, if Relacore supplements do cause side effects, this could in fact be a big problem.
The Science – "Legit?"
Unfortunately the company website for Relacore does not provide solid clinical evidence to support these weight-loss supplements. We at DietSpotlight need to see published scientific research that supports the diet product and the ingredients it contains. If there is none provided, we become very concerned.
The Bottom Line – Does Relacore Work?
Alright, is now the time to run out the door for Relacore? We like that there are some dieters who like the product and the business has been around for years, but we have concerns about supporting a supplement that is not clinically proven to be better than the competition. Another concern we had is the class action lawsuit filed against this company for false weight-loss claims. This suit was active from the year 2000 to 2015. Moreover, many customers have complained of side effects from these diet pills.
Dieters that wish to lose weight and get fit faster, may want to try a weight-loss supplement that is supported by plenty of positive customer reviews and documented clinical research. The product should be from a company that's not been part of a class-action lawsuit.
Among the best products we've seen in 2016 is one called Leptigen. It contains a proprietary blend of four ingredients, which were proven in published clinical studies to increase fat loss and ignite metabolism. We can't find any user complaints of harmful side effects and dieter feedback posted online reveals people are seeing outstanding results.
To boot, the company behind Leptigen is so confident in their product that they're offering a Special Trial Offer, which is quite the good sign.

Since I received no communication from this seller on the shipping of this item, I sent him emails on May 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th, asking for shipping status or date. He did not respond to any of those emails.
On the 4th, I filed a complaint with SquareTrade to assist in resolving this lack of communication and get the item I paid for. The following day, I received an email from the seller stating that the item was shipped out within 24 hours of payment receipt by surface mail.
I finally received the product on the 7th of May. It was postmarked the 24th - 3 days after he told me it was shipped.
I am a big believer in utilizing the Ebay Feedback forum. I do not like to leave Negative Feedback, unless I don't receive the product or all other options for resolution have been tried.
Therefore, I left Neutral Feedback because the seller did not provide adequate communications and gave me incorrect shipping information. THE SELLER IN-TURN LEFT ME NEGATIVE FEEDBACK, CALLING ME A WHINER!!!
I have since viewed the video I purchased and found it unwatchable.
The picture has lines through it. I have emailed the seller several times requesting refund, with no replies. I am pursuing other courses of resolution and will post the outcome.
I will never buy from this person again and recommend nobody else does either!

Ubuntu, Knee-Deep in the Big Muddy
Off the Beat: Bruce Byfield's Blog
"We were knee-deep in the big muddy,
And the damn fool said push on"
- Peter Seeger by way of Dick Gaughan
Criticism gives you two main choices: either you can learn from it, or ignore it and keep on with what you are doing. Sadly, with the introduction of Smart Scopes on to the dash, Ubuntu 13.10 is mostly opting to ignore criticism, pushing ahead with changes that few seem to want and violating Unity's original design principles in favor of contradictory new ones.
The criticism began just over a year ago, when Ubuntu announced that it would be adding Amazon search results to the dash. Since these results would be enabled by default, the move immediately raised concerns about privacy. Ubuntu tried to answer these concerns by adding a legal notice and the ability to turn off the Amazon notices, and even to uninstall the new feature. However, these changes were not enough to prevent Richard Stallman, the founder of the Free Software Foundation, from condemning Ubuntu as "spyware" or to quiet unrest among contributors.
These concerns are potentially multiplied many times over in the 13.10 release by the introduction of Smart Scopes, a combination of search filters and bookmarks. Ubuntu recently promised that results would be sent anonymously to third parties -- but gave so few details about how the anonymization would be done that, essentially, it was asking users to trust Ubuntu and its corporate arm Canonical to do the right thing.
At the same time, to judge from the betas, the legal notice and configuration setting to turn off results appear to have been dropped as no longer necessary.
No necessary connection
This is not the first time that Ubuntu and Canonical have pushed ahead with a feature that met with a lukewarm reception. The history of the Unity interface is crowded with them, from the repositioning of title bar buttons to the Head Up Display replacement for menus.
However, while other unilateral changes had at least a semblance of design rationale, the reasons for Smart Scopes are much vaguer. Many of the additional results in the dash are irrelevant to the task in hand. Nor are users showing any sign of being impatient with using a browser for online searches, the way they have for the last twenty years.
The problem is that Ubuntu is trying to use the dash for two separate purposes that are not especially compatible. While searches are the common factor, it is one thing to search the relatively small set of local resources and another to search the Internet, or even a large commercial site. Privacy issues and potential connection problems are online concerns that do not exist to the same degree locally.
Anyway, the attempt to combine local and online searches has been done before -- and with indifferent results. If Ubuntu paid more attention to KDE, it might have noted that the attempt to use Konqueror as both a file manager and a web browser was abandoned in the fourth release series, with a new file manager being added instead. A few holdouts still use Konqueror for both purposes, but most users apparently see no natural connection between local and online searches.
If nothing else, the trouble is that search filters in the dash cannot possibly complete with a web browser. A web browser is a specialized tool, with plenty of room for features that the dash has no space before. Once you get past the name, you realize that Smart Scopes are no more than a series of bookmarks arranged in no particular effort, and that the results are crammed by default into a much smaller window than they would be in the browser. Nor do Smart Scopes offer the possibility of self-selected anonymous browsing, tabs, or any of the other features that even a simple modern browser offers today.
Dueling aesthetics
Moreover, Smart Scopes is an obvious violation of the design principles that Unity is based upon. Say what you will about Unity and its functionality (and I, for one, am not a fan), aesthetically it is a model of minimalist design. Its panel is open only to a few app indicators, and its indicators for open and active apps are stragetically-placed arrows, compared to the task bars used by other desktop environments.
However, contrast this design to the dash with Smart Scopes. While the rest of the desktop is uncluttered to a fault, the drop-down list of smart scopes is loosely organized and full of results that are, at best, peripheral to many searches. Even the way that active scopes are highlighted seems klunky compared to the rest of Unity.
For instance, the launcher makes economic user of vertical space. Its position and its width are ideal for the dimensions of modern wide-screen monitors. It occupies no more than one-twelfth of the screen. By contrast, Smart Scopes are listed in two columns, that together occupy almost one-third of the dash. Either users endure, search results that are crammed into even less space than they have originally, or else they are continually click the list of scopes open and shut.
Similarly, compare the display of Smart Scopes to the organization of the Systems Setting window. While the list of Smart Scopes is text-based with sometimes cryptic entries, System Settings offer aesthetically-pleasing icons, many of which give some clue to their functions. Minimal scrolling is needed to see the complete system settings, while the list of Smart Scopes constantly requires opening and closing of drop-down lists.
Move from the dash with Smart Scopes to almost any other part of Unity, and you might wonder if you are still in the same desktop environment. In every way, Smart Scopes ignores the design expectations created by the rest of Unity, being clumsy, inefficient, and just plain ugly.
Too high a price
Smart Scopes have one obvious advantage -- potentially, they might defray the cost of developing Unity through affiliate programs. Not all scopes, or even most of them offer this possibility, but obviously the possibility is there. Presumably, that is the main reason that Ubuntu has blundered ahead with their development despite the lack of encouragement from users.
However, even if Smart Scopes eventually help Unity pay for itself, their success would come at too high a price. As the substitute for the menu and file manager of other desktop environments, the dash is an essential feature of Unity. To make it less effective can only make Unity less of a desktop alternative.
Even worse, to make it less effective through adware (which is what the changes amount to, unless you insist on being punctiliously literal-minded), is to impose part of what people escaped by choosing to use free software in the first place.
The idea that smart scopes could make Ubuntu profitable does not seem likely. Yet, even if it were, the profitability would be at the expense of narrowing the difference between free and proprietary software in the first place -- and that is a much higher price than I suspect most Unity users are willing to pay, no matter how great their loyalty to Ubuntu.comments powered by Disqus

Tonight's the night to explore the great air-conditioned indoors. Conveniently enough, the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra has scheduled a cool concert featuring Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue" with pianist Igor Lipinski.
The twentysomething Lipinski gave a recital in the Canisius College Montante Cultural Center not long ago at which he played virtuosic piano pieces and did magic tricks. Surely he will bring out aspects of the Gershwin showpiece that have been invisible up until now.
Conducted by Associate Conductor Matthew Kraemer, the concert also features other music by Gershwin and by Richard Rodgers. Concertgoers are welcome to come early and sit by the reflecting pool and sample the wares of food trucks including Pizza Amore, R&R and Rolling Joe. A post-concert party features dancing and Gershwin-era cabaret jazz with Heather Holden and her jazz quartet.
The concert starts at 7 tonight in Kleinhans Music Hall. For info, call 885-5000.

Dear Forum Members,
I am in need for your support. I use the latest WordPress Version 3.5 and have lately installed the following plugin for SEO purposes:
- Google Plus Author Information in Search Result (GPAISR)
More information on this Plugin are available here:
I use it in the Version 0.6 on following blog:
Now the problem with the plugin:
It does not only include the Google+ Link to the full posts but to the post previews as well (as seen on the first blog post preview with the link above). As far as I can judge, it is difficult to get support from the developer of the plugin.
Is it possible to adjust the code of the plugin myself to solve my issue? How would I do that?
Thank you already in advance for your help, hints and tipps.
Kind regards,

Alexander vs. Brook Will Be a "Night of Welterweights"
By Rick Reeno
According to Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer, Devon Alexander (24-1, 13KOs) vs. Kell Brook (29-0, 19KOs) will be the crowning jewel of a Showtime televised all-welterweight tripleheader - which may become a quadrupleheader. There will also be two welterweight fights on Showtime Extreme. In all, there could six welterweight fights that night, says Schaefer, with Alexander defending his IBF title against Brook in the main event.
The card takes place on January 19th and the venue will be finalized in the next few days.
"It will be a welterweight card, stacked with welterweights. It is a very deep division, so we want to showcase many different welterweights who are right there and breaking through. It will be at least a tripleheader, on Showtime, possibly a quadrupleheader and there will be as well a Showtime Extreme with two fights - so we could see, possibly, six welterweight fights that night," Schaefer said.

Herman Cain to Receive Secret Service Protection, U.S. Says
Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain will receive Secret Service protection, according to the agency.
Cain asked for the protection, said his campaign spokesman, J.D. Gordon, who didn't elaborate on the reason for the request. U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano approved the protection in consultation with a congressional advisory committee, said George Ogilvie, a Secret Service spokesman.
Ogilvie said he couldn't comment on whether Cain has been the target of any threats, when the protection will begin or whether any other Republican candidates are being protected.
The Department of Homeland Security acknowledged putting then-Senator Barack Obama under Secret Service protection in May 2007.

WR Reed shows off his athleticism at Florida State Pro Day
Through high school and in college, receiver Bert Reed was always been one of the fastest players on the field and he showed that in Tallahassee at Florida State's Pro Day. He ran an "official" 4.46 in the 40-yard dash, but several scouts had him in the 4.3's. Reed, who measured in at 5'10" and 183 pounds, added very good times in the short shuttle (4.32), 3-cone drill (7.21), vertical (34") and broad jump (10'2"). He didn't receive an invite to the NFL Combine last month and projects as a late-round or priority free agent.
Running backs Jermaine Thomas and Ty Jones also worked out with average numbers in the 40-yard dash with Thomas running a 4.62 and Jones a 4.75. Offensive tackle Andrew Datko kept his results from the Combine, but was able to lift 225-pounds 20 times. He skipped the bench press in Indianapolis because of his shoulder injury.
The highest rated Seminoles in this draft class, linebacker Nigel Bradham and offensive tackle Zebrie Sanders, decided to stick with their numbers from the Combine.

(Page 2 of 5)
* FERNAND LEGER, Museum of Modern Art, 11 West 53d Street, (212) 708-9480 (through May 12). The first major show in this country in years of the French master whose robotic figures, hilariously deadpan and vaguely Art Deco, define machine-age modernism. His exquisite early paintings should come as a revelation to many people. Likewise his drawings: it's difficult even to imagine Leger, with his meaty paws, doing them; they are among the very best of the entire modern period. He's commonly thought to have painted in primary colors and not much else, but he turns out to be one of the most peculiar colorists of his day, tending toward in-betweens that create an uncanny mood. All in all, he is shown to be more unpredictable than might have been expected. Hours and admission: See above (Kimmelman).
* RICHARD SERRA: ''TORQUED ELLIPSES,'' Dia Center for the Arts, 548 West 22d Street, Chelsea, (212) 989-5912 (through June 14). Astonishing works of architectural sculpture. After seeing the oval volumes of Borromini's Church of San Carlo in Rome, Richard Serra wondered what it would be like to make a sculpture in the form of a torqued ellipse: imagine a wall of steel forming an oval enclosure, twisting so that its top and bottom are not aligned. It took a year for him to make just one. Three are on view. The shapes are weirdly impossible to resolve in the mind: to walk around the outside of one doesn't tell you what the inside is like, and vice versa. Maybe the most amazing thing here is how so much bulky metal can seem to expand the space it occupies and set it in motion. Hours: Thursdays through Sundays, noon to 6 P.M. Admission: $4; $2 for students over 10 and the elderly (Kimmelman).
* ''TAINO: PRE-COLUMBIAN ART AND CULTURE FROM THE CARIBBEAN,'' El Museo del Barrio, 104th Street at Fifth Avenue, East Harlem, (212) 831-7272 (through May 3). At the time of Columbus's arrival, the Caribbean was home to the Taino, and this is the first comprehensive presentation in North America of their still mysterious art. The centerpiece is a sacred figure made of materials from Africa, Europe and the New World, cultural ingredients that virtually define the meaning of Hispanic in the United States today. Hours: Wednesdays through Sundays, 11 A.M. to 5 P.M. Admission: $4; $2 for students and the elderly (Cotter).
* ''TO OBSERVE AND IMAGINE,'' British drawings and watercolors, 1600-1900; Pierpont Morgan Library, 29 East 36th Street, (212) 685-0610 (through May 3). The first major survey of the library's impressive holdings of British drawings and watercolors, this banquet of a show includes works by major artists, from Anthony van Dyck (1599-1641) to Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828-1882). The title represents the show's range, from close observations of nature to marvelous feats of the imagination, like the fervid color drawings for the Book of Job by William Blake (1757-1827). A group of drawings by J. M. W. Turner (1775-1851) traces his remarkable progression from a painter of romantic landscapes to an innovator whose work foretold 20th-century abstraction. Hours: Tuesdays through Fridays, 10:30 A.M. to 5 P.M.; Saturdays, 10:30 A.M. to 6 P.M.; Sundays, noon to 6 P.M. Admission: $6; $4, students over 12 and the elderly (Grace Glueck).
''WHEN SILK WAS GOLD,'' Central Asian and Chinese Textiles in the Metropolitan and Cleveland Museums of Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Fifth Avenue at 82d Street, (212) 535-7710 (through May 17). A glimmer of the ancient Silk Road comes through in this display of 65 pieces of embroidery, tapestry and brocade dating from the 8th to 15th centuries. With a couple of spectacular exceptions, this is a collection of fragments: a bit of a cuff, a length of hem. But together they conjure up a lost grandeur and offer a meticulously prepared overview of a field of research still in its infancy. Hours: Fridays and Saturdays, 9:30 A.M. to 8:45 P.M.; Sundays, and Tuesdays through Thursdays, 9:30 A.M. to 5:15 P.M. Suggested admission: $8 for adults; $4 for students and the elderly (Cotter).
Galleries: Uptown
''SEEING AND BELIEVING,'' Sculpture Center, 167 East 69th Street, (212) 879-3500 (through March 24). Four artists invite visitors to look into other, interior spaces. The best is Naomi Fox, who makes intricate miniature environments. In one, you look through a peephole to see a little tree revolving vertiginously on a fur-clad turntable. Also note Stephen Hendee's cavernous, cubistic room with a black light (Ken Johnson).
HEDDA STERNE, ''Over the Years, Paintings and Drawings From the 1950's-1990's,'' CDS Gallery, 76 East 79th Street, (212) 772-9555 (through April 30). In a painting career of more than 50 years, Hedda Sterne, one of the first-generation members of the New York School, has explored a number of modes, from semi-realism to geometric abstraction. Most rewarding here are the calm, tranquil canvases evoking infinite space and recent linear meditations on floral shapes (Glueck).
* KARL STRUSS, James Danziger Gallery, 851 Madison Avenue, near 70th Street, (212) 734-5300 (through March 28). After World War I, Struss enjoyed a long, distinguished career as a Hollywood cinematographer, but before that he made romantically blurry, Pictorialist photographs of New York in which you feel the tension between timeless reverie and modern urgencies that would soon render Pictorialism obsolete. This beautiful exhibition presents a set of 33 small platinum prints that he assembled into an album for a woman named Amy Whittemore in 1911 (Johnson).
Galleries: 57th Street

Hi there,
I'm building an e-commerce store which sells meat, poultry and the like -so units of products usually are in weight rather than units.
I'm trying to figure out how I can configure the 'quantity' selector to have increments of 0.5 rather than the default (=1).
Another idea I had was to eliminate the 'quantity' selector all together and have the weight of the products referenced by variables (weight - 0.5kg,1.0kg,1.5kg etc) - that selection would display the 'add to cart button'.
Please do not refer me to a plugin such as Gravity Forms cause I'm trying to minimize our expenditure on the website.
I saw a similar post but I didn't understand how they achieved this
Best Regards and thanks in advance

Conservatives who feel displaced, disenfranchised need to start organizing. This is a great piece. I think we should all read "Rules for Radicals" and see how well it would work for us!
I agree.
I agree so much it was the subject of a rare vanity by me.
I have both of Alinsky's books...brought em when I first saw Obama rising.
Junk yard dog politics is where we need to go but that takes cajones and Republicans are sorely lacking in that area.
Sounds more like an axiom. And like many an axiom, it's...well...axiomatic. Why does anybody think this guy's brilliant?
And the brilliance of the Obama selection is that he is now and forever *THE FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT*
Yes, and you go right to the streets of Chicago, and ask the 'hood' where's all that stuff you were promised?
Obama, The Various Reverends, they all got their nice houses. O got his sweet real estate deal. Where's YOUR sweet real estate deal? How's come only your saviors and your so-called leaders get to enrich themselves when you put them in power, and yet you are still living in run-down slums?
Michael Medved sure doesn't agree. Right now he is slobbering all over the one talking about how we should be respectful and how moving his acceptance speech was. Sickening.
I can agree that "Rules for Radicals" is a good read to get into the minds of and learn the tactics of the radical socialist/progressives/democrats, however; it would be a big mistake to act like them and become the moonbats that they are.
From Rules for Radicals, Alinsky outlines his strategy in organizing, writing:
"There's another reason for working inside the system. Dostoevsky said that taking a new step is what people fear most. Any revolutionary change must be preceded by a passive, affirmative, non-challenging attitude toward change among the mass of our people. They must feel so frustrated, so defeated, so lost, so futureless in the prevailing system that they are willing to let go of the past and change the future. This acceptance is the reformation essential to any revolution."[2]
[2] Saul Alinsky, The Latter Rain
I will NEVER lower my moral Christian moral standards to believe or act on the idea that "the end justifies the means." Would you?
Also might open more eyes - to what are the daily practiced tactics of the Left so that these 'naive Repubs' can finally figure out 'who' they are dealing with.
Even now; am amazed at how many do not get it!
No. You don't fight communism by becoming a communist!
They are despicable.
Radical Conservatives. I like the term.
Marking for later read.
I've been thinking, we need to know and understand his tactics and why they worked.
Before we doing any of this, it will help for the GOP to first get back to conservative principles. President-elect Obama might be the high-colonic the GOP needs to purge itself of Bushonomics and the neo-cons.
The hundreds of millions of dollars Obama raised probably had more to do with his victory than anything Alinsky thought up. If Obama had to rely on Alinsky's strategies, he wouldn't have gotten very far.
