Goodbye to an old friend
Those of you outside my family who regularly read this irregularly scheduled blog know that I often sing the praises of the PowerPC processor and often rail against the indifference that many distros pay toward this great platform.
Of course the reason for this is simple: I'm a Mac guy from way back — from the circle-the-wagons days — and when I made my conversion to GNU/Linux it was Debian on an iMac. That was a couple of years ago, and during that time I have warmed up to other platforms and other distros; as I've written before, I even sing the praises of Dell from time to time (especially on their accessibility when it comes to maintenance, but I digress).
One of the reasons I owned Macs for so long is that I feel the quality of machines that Apple produced (not all, but most) running the PowerPC — especially the New World Macs — have a longevity that deserves any given distro's attention.
Debian. Fedora. OpenSUSE — that's who's still developing for the PowerPC. Ubuntu dropped it with either 7.10 or 8.04, I believe (though I keep getting notes from the Ubuntu folks saying I'm wrong — but the fact remains Ubuntu was very public about dropping PowerPC support during a debate in which I took place and lost).
However, with the latest from Fedora and OpenSUSE for the PowerPC, I believe that this battle to keep the PowerPC relevant is being lost. An update from Fedora 9 to Fedora 10 on an Indigo iMac was all but unworkable and an install of OpenSUSE 11 on the same machine was impossible.
There are other factors involved: For example, both Fedora and OpenSUSE have no Live CD version for the PowerPC — and I understand that this may not be possible — and net installs are something that you'd rather not send a new user (heck, I don't like doing them).
So while I have Debian back on the Indigo iMac in question and Fedora 9 running faithfully on a Blue & White G3, I have to admit that I've lost the patience to babysit the constant care and feeding the PowerPC machines. And, regretfully, I will have to put my PPC advocacy on the back burner as we move forward.
Goodbye, old friend.
So while we at Felton Linuxworks won't turn away folks who want to convert their New World, pre-Intel Macs to GNU/Linux, I will give them the whole lowdown on how most distros aren't paying attention to the platform, and why.

I had trouble with Fedora 10 on a G4/466. Besides being extremly slow, the automatic X configuration didn't work.
Soon thereafter, I installed Debian Etch. It was one of the easiest installs I'd ever done in terms of being trouble-free.
I probably could use the xorg.conf information from Etch to redo Fedora, but since Etch was much faster in this 466 MHz/384MB RAM environment, I feel compelled to stick with it.
I'd like to do another OpenBSD install on this box. The first time the install went perfectly well, but I couldn't get the box to boot afterward. Maybe I'll have it figured out better next time.
I'm reluctant to upgrade the Debian install to Lenny, since I've had such trouble with Lenny in i386 that I'm reluctant to try it on PowerPC.
February 13, 2009 at 2:40 pm
I forgot to say that the strength of the Fedora repositories is what makes me want to run it — there's quite a bit of software in there.

Does anyone have an explanation what Akira's dream in ch37 meant? And what it had to do with ch36's
I was shocked when I read ch38, though :P I was like: WHUT is this Aoi Hana I am reading? I do worry about the two of them, though...I don't think it will work out between them at least not how things are right now...

No Fumi and Ah-chan goodness, but:
Spoiler for chapter 39:
Chapter 42 is quite interesting and indicates that perhaps Ah-chan's perception of her relationship with Fumi is slowly changing. Though to what conclusion will she cone?
Is her relationship with Fumi just a passing fad?
Or is she starting to understand what love really means?
And while Ah-chan's still in the process of finding herself, Fumi falls in love with her even deeper.
You gotta love Shimura's storytelling. So calm and simple, but every line bears powerful emotions.

Oh, so we do have an Aoi Hana manga thread. Kinda wondered. Either way, I guess I'll have to settle with /u/ for much activity.
Akira's really trying so hard. She shouldn't push/rush herself. Even if she isn't sexually attracted to Fumi*, that she's willing to go this far with Fumi (and I don't mean just chapter 44) makes a compromise relationship reasonable, right? Still a couple. She shouldn't put so much pressure on herself to match what she thinks a girlfriend should be like and just enjoy being with Fumi.
*And that's an "if"--I'm not ruling that out as a present or future possibility, certainly not in a yuri manga; it's just that things are still really awkward in that category, and there's her reflection in this chapter, too...
I had been hoping they'd talk this out at some point, at least a little bit more, but not this chapter, and it looks like Akira will be asking that teacher for advice before anything else. That ought to put more light on how Akira feels.
Still a nice chapter.

I have trouble understanding the purpose behind Yassan's backstory. She was obviously never meant to be a fleshed out character (her backstory in ch 46 didn't change much for me) so why waste so many pages on her? (these pages could've shown Ah-chan asking Hinako-sensei for advice instead, for instance)
Nevertheless, I'm kind of glad Pon-chan's play is going to be incorporated into the plot. It's such a nice parallel to Fumi's and Akira's story.

Houston • Barry Sanders knows that his trading cards are bought and sold every day.
When the Hall of Fame running back learned that a Houston couple desperate to have a baby was auctioning off one of his most rare cards to fund one last attempt at in vitro fertilization, he was stunned.
Now the former Detroit Lions star is helping spread the word about the sale of the card signed by both him and Walter Payton so Todd and Ula Nelkin can raise $20,000. It's hard for Sanders to imagine one of his cards helping bring a child into the world.
"It would be very, very special," Sanders said in an interview with The Associated Press. "I'm not sure that I even have the words, but it will be very special if I were able to help. Obviously we know there are no guarantees, but I will do as much as I can."
The 1999 Donruss card has a picture of Sanders and his signature on one side and Payton, who died in November 1999, is seen on the other side with his autograph. It is the only one of its kind rated a 10 by the Beckett grading service. The Nelkins are auctioning it off this week on eBay.
"I would love to keep the card, but I would rather have a kid," Todd said. "It's a wonderful card. You daydream that maybe 30, 40 years from now, our son or daughter will find out where the card is and what happened to it."
The Nelkins are huge sports fans and own a sports memorabilia shop in Houston. The met on an online dating site and had their first date at a Houston Rockets game before being married at another one.
"We're two big kids at heart," Ula said. "Whenever we go to an outing, whether it be a movie or a symphony or a musical, we think: 'We just can't wait to bring our little one to this.' "
They've both always wanted kids, but the 45-year-old Todd and the 42-year-old Ula met later in life and when they decided to have children they learned her eggs were no longer viable. They've been trying to have a child for about three years and already spent about $40,000 on IVF with donor eggs, only to have both rounds end in heartbreak.
Ula had to have emergency surgery after the first try resulted in an ectopic pregnancy. On the next round she never became pregnant. They say their credit cards are maxed out, so they started thinking about their next step. The Nelkins, who are also looking into adoption, say they're financially stable but don't have another $20,000 for when the doctor says Ula is ready for the next procedure.
They hope their intention to use the proceeds of the sale of the card to have a baby will make it more valuable.

Dear beccakendrick,
How are you? I know you were concerned about the possibility of a miscarriage from your other post. I sincerely hope all is well with you and your baby.
There is lots of useful information on What to Eat in Pregnancy on the main part of the Pregnancy, Birth and Beyond site here.
You should take folic acid supplements at least in the first trimester (it is also best to take this in the month leading up to conception) - you need to take 400 micrograms a day.
Organic food has been shown to contain significantly more nutrients/ vitamins than its non-organic counterparts. For instance, organic apples, peas and potatoes contain approximately 70% more iron and 60% more calcium than non-organic apples, peas and potatoes. Therefore, if you can eat organic food then this is beneficial to you and your growing baby.
You will want to eat lots of fruit, vegetables, cereals and wholegrain foods. It is important to get at least 1000 mg of calcium in your diet each day. This plays an important factor in your baby's developing bones. Excellent sources of calcium include: dairy products, tofu and calcium-fortified juice and cereal.
The links above also discuss what not to eat and drink in pregnancy. This includes: alcohol, avoiding smoking, certain types of fish, pates as well as being careful to avoid food that could contain listeria.
Please do let us know how you are and if you need any extra information about what to eat in pregnancy.
Best wishes,

A flourishing population of desert bighorn sheep just south of Zion National Park was reduced this week as state wildlife biologists transplanted 19 of the sheep to an area west of Kanab
"We have had a goal to extend the animals to the west side of the Zion management unit," said Teresa Griffin, a wildlife manager with the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources Southern Region office. "Moving animals from one part of the unit to the other allows us to spread out the population and prevent against potential disease outbreak."
One mature ram and three lamb rams were released late Wednesday and the rest were ewes, many of them pregnant.
Due to the rugged landscape and remote location of the sheep, the animals were captured by a wildlife helicopter capture company using a net gun. The sheep were then secured and carried under the helicopter to a working site where they were tested for disease and outfitted with radio collars.
Griffin said there is archaeological evidence of bighorn sheep in the release area in the form of tools made out of bighorn bones and petroglyphs. The transplant was funded by the Foundation for North American Wild Sheep.
The bighorns moved this week were most likely part of a transplant that took place in 1973 when a dozen desert bighorn sheep were moved from the Lake Mead area in Nevada to Zion National Park. Bighorn sheep were native to the area but had disappeared in the 1950s due to a combination of factors, most of them human-caused.
The sheep from Nevada were kept in pens until their numbers reached 20 animals and they were released. The transplanted animals were not seen again, and it wasn't until the 1990s that visitors to Zion National Park started to report bighorn sightings.
By 2009, a survey conducted by Utah wildlife biologists turned up 115 bighorn in Zion National Park and 114 on lands south of the park.
The Utah Wildlife Board created a desert bighorn hunt for fall 2010 on the Zion unit south of the national park. Hunting is not allowed in Zion National Park, and no animals captured this week for the transplant came from inside the park.

1. Fill out the forms
Print or type ALL of the information asked for.
Attach these forms to your petition:
You may have to pay a fee to file your petition. If you cannot pay, you can fill out forms to ask for a fee waiver. This will not affect your emancipation.
2. Write a statement
Write a statement to the court that explains:
If you do not know where your parents or guardians live, tell the court when you last saw your parents and what you have done to find them.
If you do not want to tell your parents about the petition, tell the court ALL your reasons. You can ask the court for permission to not tell them.
Attach letters from your boss and your landlord if you want.
3. Have your forms reviewed
If your court's family law facilitator or self-help center helps people with emancipations, ask them to review your paperwork. They can make sure you filled it out properly before you move ahead with your case.
4. File the petition, other forms, and your statement
After you fill out all your forms and your statement:
5. Get a hearing date (if needed)
In some counties, there is a court hearing for all emancipation requests. In other counties, a hearing is needed only if the parents do not agree (consent) to the emancipation or when it is not clear to the judge if you meet all the requirements for emancipation. If the court schedules a court date for you, you will probably have your hearing within 30 days.
If the clerk does NOT give you a court hearing when you file your papers, skip to step 7.
6. Give notice (only if you got a hearing date)
If you got a hearing date, you will probably have to give notice to your parents, guardian, or other people of the time and place of the court hearing. "Giving notice" means you will have to legally let your parents know (or other person the judge orders you to give notice to) about the court hearing. This is very important. The judge may not give you emancipation if everyone does not get notice.
If you have a court hearing scheduled, skip to step 8.
7. Wait for the judge's decision
After you file your petition, if you did not get a hearing scheduled right away, the judge has 30 days to:
If the judge makes an order (either accepting or rejecting your petition), the clerk will give you a copy of the judge's order, stamped "Filed."
If the judge accepts your petition without a hearing, you will get a Declaration of Emancipation Without Hearing (see page 2 of Form MC-300). You are emancipated! Skip ahead to step 10.
8. Before your court hearing (if there is one)
If there is going to be a hearing, you have to fill out a Declaration of Emancipation of Minor After Hearing (Form MC-310).
9. Go to your court hearing (if you have one)
If you have a court hearing scheduled, make sure you go to it. Emancipation hearings vary a lot from county to county. For your hearing:
Read Going to Court for more information on how to prepare for your court hearing.
10. What to do if the judge says you are emancipated
After the judge accepts your petition, take your papers back to the court clerk's office and file them. Do this even if you did not have a hearing. You will get copies of the Declaration of Emancipation. Make sure you get "certified copies." These are important papers. Keep them in a safe place. You may need to show your boss, landlord, doctor, school, or anyone else who asks for your parents' permission.
If you want the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to know that you are emancipated, fill out Emancipated Minor's Application to California Department of Motor Vehicles (Form MC-315). Take it to the DMV with a certified copy of your Declaration of Emancipation.

Ethnographic Process Evaluation: Piloting an HIV Prevention Intervention Program among Injection Drug Users
This study demonstrates an ethnographically critically informed process evaluation of piloting an HIV intervention program targeting injection drug users. The authors used systematic ethnographic methods to identify and evaluate the factors that facilitated or inhibited message diffusion. Findings indicated that communication patterns and strategies advocated in training sessions did not translate immediately into the outreach encounter in the drug use communities. The intervention program was refined and developed based on findings from the ethnographic process evaluation. The authors argue that ethnographic methods provided a dynamic, flexible, and iterative process for evaluating the intervention's development and ensuring its cultural relevance.

hopefully my fellow Canadian can get back on the winning track.

I hope Colin (funny, genuine guy) batters Ricci (arrogant, poser)
Never watched really watched TUF 16 i sorta gave up on it after the first episode so all i really saw of Ricci was him being labled "The Accountant" off Dana White.
Will 100% backing Col regardless like.
3-2-0 Pro Fighter managed by TFL Sports Agency
Don't know enough about Ricci to comment but would love for Colin to get a decent run in the UFC. I've never been a fan of a fighter due to his perceived personality, I like fighters cus of the way they fight (with a slight British bias) with Colin being the exception to the rule. A genuinly humble, articulate and nice fella this guy is a great role model, not just for MMA but all combat sports. He goes against the publics stereotype that fighters are thugs, when in reality the vast majority are dedicated sportsmen that deserve at least as much credit as any other sport.

Clay safely with Wolfgang's ultra-slick clay lubricant.
Wolfgang Clay Lubricant works hand in hand with Wolfgang Elastic Poly Clay to give your vehicle the cleanest possible finish. Wolfgang Clay Lubricant protects the paint during the detailing clay process with a super slippery layer of polymers and wetting agents. The clay glides easily without scratching. Wolfgang Clay Lubricant is an essential ingredient to achieve the perfect, concours paint finish.
When applied on a freshly washed surface Wolfgang Clay Lubricant creates an ultra-fine, slick protective layer between the paint and the clay. This allows the clay to glide across the surface, acting as a magnet for any foreign particles left behind after the wash. When this step is complete, your car's surface will actually be exfoliated, "purified" and free of contamination. The paint will feel like silk to the touch. When wax is applied over a freshly clayed paint finish, it only enhances the smooth, slick feeling of the paint.
Detailing clay works by gliding over the paint and removing contaminants. All detailing clay needs some type of lubrication in order to work effectively without scratching the paint. Some detailers use soapy water as a lubricant, but detergents in the car wash could break down the clay bar. The best option is a true clay lubricant, like Wolfgang Clay Lubricant.
Wolfgang Clay Lubricant is an advanced, VOC compliant formula containing super polymers, which provide a sheer, ultra smooth shield between the paint and the clay. Its high-lubricity formula makes the process extra gentle on your car's finish—loosened particles are safely lifted away without scratching even the delicate clear coat.
Spray the paint with Wolfgang Clay Lubricant to protect the paint during the claying process.
Wolfgang Clay Lubricant is safe on glass, metal, and all types of paint. It doesn't leave any type of residue or coating. When you're finished claying a section simply wipe off the excess lubricant. If the clay bar left any residue, mist it with Wolfgang Clay Lubricant and wipe it off with a soft microfiber towel.
Tech notes: Claying with Wolfgang Poly Clay and Wolfgang Clay Lubricant twice a year is sufficient. For the ultimate outcome, follow claying with Wolfgang Paintwork Polish Enhancer, then protect and seal in the shine with Deep Gloss Paint Sealant 3.0. This will yield an unbelievable showroom-quality finish.

Is it okay to breastfeed until to years and beyond?
I have been breasfeeding my first baby until 2 years and 8 months, but when I found out I was pregnant with my second child I stopped from breastfeeding. My question is is it ok to breastfeed until 2 years and beyond because I am planning to do that practice again on my second child.
28th November 2012 07:02 AM #2
Hi jopoys,
Yes it's recommended by the World Health Organisation to breastfeed to two years old and beyond. That's wonderful that you breastfed your first child for so long as there are great health advantages to doing this - such as increased immunity to childhood illnesses and a decreased chance of the child developing obesity. There are also emotional and social development advantages. You have given your first child a wonderful start in life and it's great to plan the same with your second.
It is also safe to breastfeed during pregnancy, although some women do find that their milk supply decreases during this time.
With best wishes,

Hi jopoys,
LJ gave you some great advice, and she's actually a mum who breastfed her toddler through the pregnancy of her 2nd child (she just gave birth to baby #2 not too long ago). I did not breastfeed any of my babies through a pregnancy with another child for various reasons, but I know of plenty of mums who have.
I did, however, breastfeed 4 of my children past the age of two. One was breastfed until he was 3, and the others stopped around 2 1/2. They all self-weaned.
Here's a wonderful article on the pleasures of extended breastfeeding. You'll also be encouraged to know that studies have shown that the longer you breastfeed, the less likely you are to get breast cancer.
My mother died of breast cancer when she was only 48, and she did not breastfeed very long. She breastfed me to the age of 13 months, and I don't know how long she breastfed my sister, but I don't think it was much more than this. There are other things that contribute to developing cancer, but because breastfeeding is one that could lower my risk, I chose to breastfeed as long as my children were willing.
One of the best things that can help to establish a successful breastfeeding relationship is to be sure you are putting baby to the breast often, from the moment baby is born, and that baby has a good latch.
Please post back with any questions or comments you may have.

Hello jopoys,
What you may be feeling on your breast could be a cyst. Cysts are very common and most often are not malignant (cancerous).
I have dense, fibrocystic breasts, so I have a lot of cysts in my breasts, but they are not malignant. I had one surgically removed when I was in my 20's, and after the doctor removed it he said he was 95% sure it was not malignant before he went in and cut it out (wish he had shared that BEFORE surgery).
A couple of years later, I got another cyst in a breast, but I had learned that caffeine can cause cysts. So when I went to the doctor and he told me I had another cyst, I asked if I could try going off of caffeine for 3 months to see if it made a difference. He agreed.
3 months later, I was back in his office for another check, and the cyst was gone. Going off of caffeine really helped.
Then a few years later another cyst developed. Went to a different doctor this time and he tried to aspirate it by putting a needle into the cyst and trying to draw fluid out. He could not draw any fluid out. I didn't like that doctor, so I never went back... and the cyst disappeared as I cleaned up my diet.
I have since learned that there are things you can do naturally, to reduce the size of cysts and keep them from developing.
The first thing I would encourage you to do would be to go off of all caffeine and sugar. Then add in at least one raw vegetable salad every day (2 is preferable). This will help you get the micronutrients and enzymes your body needs to be healthy (cooking destroys enzymes and reduces nutrients in food).
One really easy way to be sure you're getting more greens in your diet is to make at least one green smoothie each day. You can use fresh or frozen fruit and add spinach, kale, swiss chard, romaine lettuce or any other deep green leafy greens that you like. I just use one kind at a time (I don't mix them, but you could).
And another thing that's great for breast cysts is using warm castor oil on them. Breasts with cysts can predispose a person to higher chances of getting cancer. My mother was 48 when she died of Breast Cancer. I am 49 years old and no signs of breast cancer.
Here is an excellent video that explains about breast cysts and the benefits of castor oil.
Be sure that when you apply the castor oil to your breasts, that you also apply it under your arm because that's where the lymph nodes are that the breast tissues drain into. Really important that the lymph system is working well.
Please post back with any questions you may have. It's okay to use castor oil on the breasts while pregnant and breastfeeding. In fact, applying a castor oil pack to plugged milk ducts is beneficial in relieving them and helping them to drain. I would make sure not to put the castor oil near the nipple so baby doesn't ingest it. If you happen to get some on the areola or nipple area just wipe it off before breastfeeding.
If you try the castor oil on the breast, please post back after 10 days to let me know if you see it making any difference in your breasts (as the doctor in the video mentioned).
Hope this helps.

Hi, a therapist told me that it would be dangerous to the mother's health if the mother is sickly like me. But, maybe, if you are healthy, it would be ok.
19th July 2013 02:44 AM #8
Hi xylumctin,
Thank you for your post. I am sorry to hear you are 'sickly' - would you be able to clarify further what you mean by this? Thank you.
Speaking generally (without knowing the specifics of what is making you feel unwell) breastfeeding is recommended even when mum is ill. It is extremely rare for the mum to have an illness which means she should not breastfeed:
'HIV and HTLV-1 are the only infectious diseases that are considered absolute contraindications to breastfeeding in developed countries' (Lawrence & Lawrence 2001)
To clarify, hardly any illnesses mean that a mum should not breastfeed to two years and beyond.
With best wishes,

Hi, LJ.
With "sickly", I mean, I get sick easily. Thank you for the information. I managed to nurse my eldest son for 1 1/2 years, though. I just stopped when I got pregnant with my 2nd baby.
Thanks again!

Hi Xylumictin,
I'm following a few of your posts and noticed that you lost a baby and that you're trying to conceive. Knowing, now, that you get sick easily, I would say that it will be important for you to change your diet to boost your immune system.
Here's an excellent article that discusses nutrition and supplements which boost health and fertility. It's called Preconception Care.
Please let me know if you have any specific questions pertaining to your diet or lifestyle as I'd love to see you come into vital health in order to conceive a healthy baby and carry to term.
Warm Regards,
25th July 2013 12:06 AM #11
Hi Xylumictin,
I don't believe that getting sick a lot would be a contraindication to breastfeeding i.e. you should still be able to breastfeed for as long as you and your child want to. That's great that you breastfed for 1.5 years!
I would like to second Kate's advice - preconception care is key, especially if you generally get unwell a lot.
Many women who are breastfeeding eat around an extra 500 calories a day. When you are breastfeeding, be guided by how hungry and thirsty you feel and eat and drink a healthy, balanced diet so that you satisfy your hunger and thirst levels. Foods that release energy slowly (such as nuts, dried fruit and oats) will help you to keep going through the day.
Best wishes,

Dear Kate and LJ,
I don't get sick that often now, since I started taking food supplements (graviola, moringa and turmeric capsules). I am planning to take folic acid to prepare for pregnancy. have you heard of the book "Pregnancy Miracle"?
4th August 2013 01:08 AM #13
I am glad your sickness has reduced. Diet and nutrition can make such a difference!
No I have not read that book I am afraid. Are you currently reading it?
Yes you are wise to start thinking about taking folic acid as it is recommended that you start taking this before you are actually pregnant and then for at least the first 12 weeks of pregnancy.
Best wishes,

After Miley Copycats, School Removes 'Wrecking Ball' Art
(NEWSER) – A Michigan university has lost a landmark, and it could be all Miley Cyrus' fault. Grand Valley State University removed a giant pendulum sculpture yesterday, the Detroit Free Press reports. The pendulum, a big metal ball hanging from a steel cable, looks like, you guessed it, the wrecking ball Cyrus rides in her latest music video, and students have long taken to climbing on and swinging ... in some cases while naked, as Cyrus is in her video. A GVSU Wrecking Ball Twitter account was created, NBC 8 reports, and students started posting pictures and videos of their exploits.

Apple makes a product that suites all shapes and sizes of people. I doubt they will change there game plan on this. I would be surprised if the iPhone screen was ever bigger than 4 inches
Those who just want a dumbphone, want to keep the iPhone screen as small as possible - maybe even smaller.
But that generally only includes girly-girls and little old ladies who want to slip a small phone into a small handbag - basically, people who regard phones as fashion accessories and status symbols ... really a little bit ghey.
But those who want to use the web in any way, want at least 4.3"
Sorry, I don't think I fit into any of those categories...
The only people I know who claim to find 3.5" acceptable for browsing are iFanboys who can't bear any criticism of any aspect of any Apple product.
Does that fit any better ?
Let's face it, if the iPhone had an 8.5" screen, they'd probably say that was the perfect size too.
But that's iFanboy rationality for you (or should that be i-rationality ?)
No, my iPad has a bigger screen. Any bigger than 3.5" on the phone is to big to be used one handed. If you want a bigger screen buy an iPad or an Android device. You have choices, don't take away the perfect phone size away from us.
You really are struggling to understand, aren't you? I browse the web a bit - which is why I have an iPad to do that. My phone is a phone which I occasionally use to browse the web and do many other things, but I use my phone one habded, if I want something bigger to use with both hands i use my iPad. is that simple enough for you?
As you admit, you don't browse on your iPhone - which really just confirms my suggestion.
That puts you into the dumbphone user category - which really just confirms my initial suggestion.
But the iPhone is a smartphone - and as such, should be aimed at smartphone-user requirements ... chief among which is web-browsing - which requires a minimum screensize of 4.3"
Perhaps Apple will bring out a 2.5" screen feature phone.
That would suit you perfectly.
You really fail to see why the majority of users prefer a 3.5" phone?
Not a lot more I can say to that. Maybe you should go Android.
Those who wanted a bigger screen are no longer users.
And I HAVE gone to Android - though I still have my iPhone-4 ... but its tiny screen means it's no longer my primary phone (now the stunning HTC Evo-3D) and it's only used in the car for internet-radio and Satnav duties.
The longer Apple stays with the 3.5" screen, the faster Android's share of the market will continue to grow.
Could have told them that three years ago, but somehow I didn't think they'd be listening.
Guess they're learning the hard way.
I'm sure you did tell them 3 years ago and they didn't listen then and won't now. Like you say, all those that want a bigger phone have already left.
Please reply as I'm sure you want the last word. I won't bother replying again. You know better than Apple, which is why they are doing so poorly....
Looks like you've been silenced by a lack of ammunition.
The iPhone is superior to Android devices in most respects - which should mean that Android doesn't get a look in.
But Android vs iPhone sales growth tells a rather different story - and that's simply down to the fact that smartphone users want bigger screens ... and are prepared to forsake iOS for them.
If you feel you can, please reply.
Thats one of the reasons I left and got a Galaxy S2. Bigger screen. After using it, I could never go back to a smaller screen. And yes, it fits in the pocket fine. And yes can be used with one hand.

By Rich Myhre Herald Writer
The current Everett Silvertips know very little about Kevin Constantine from personal experience. Most only know what they have picked up from other sources.
But they sure like what they have heard.
The Western Hockey League team formally announced the hiring of Constantine as head coach Thursday, but rumors of his return had circulated for a week or two. Several players say they have been trying to learn more about the coach who led Everett to the WHL finals in 2003-04, his first season, and to the WHL's best record in 2006-07, his last.
"I think he'll be a great fit," defenseman Ben Betker said. "I heard he's a disciplinary coach, and on a young team (like Everett) I think that's good. That's exactly what we need."
Constantine's record in Everett and at other stops in his coaching career "is proof that he's got results at every level he's been at," Betker said. "Yeah, he holds players to high standards, but that's going to bring out the best in players and that's going to help us win."
Forward Manraj Hayer said he was "pretty excited" when he found out Constantine had been hired.
"It's always nice to get a winning coach into the organization," he said. "Obviously he had success in Everett in the earlier years, taking the expansion team to the finals, so I'm pretty excited to have him come in and lead us this year."
Constantine has a reputation for being intense, demanding, strict and, when necessary, loud. But those are reasonable traits, the players say, in the pursuit of winning hockey.
"We're trying to change the culture around the team, so it's good to have that accountability," center Kohl Bauml said. "It's good that we're not going to be able to slack off and that there aren't going to be any shortcuts.
"Last year was kind of a long year," Bauml added. "There was a lot of rebuilding, a lot of new faces and making sure we had the right personnel. (The team) did a really good job of bringing in the right guys, and now Mr. Constantine is only going to (add to) that. He's going to demand a lot and that'll be a good thing for our players."
"It's nice to have a coach that you can be friends with, but sometimes you need a coach that lights the fire and gets you going," agreed Hayer. "(Constantine) demands hard work and intensity, and when a coach strives for that, it's always a good thing."
The current Tips wonder if the 2013-14 team could match what Constantine's first Everett team accomplished — a long playoff run to the WHL championship series.
"I don't know of any guy who's not thinking about that right now," Betker said. "You can only imagine what the possibilities could be. Because we all want to win, right? And if you don't, you're on the wrong team."
Added Betker, "I can't wait for Day 1 of training camp."

The purpose of the tournament rules is to create a level playing
field so all students can derive maximum educational benefit from
participation. To that end, teacher and attorney-coaches are
encouraged to emphasize the educational rather than the competitive
aspect of the tournament.
The Massachusetts Bar Association's annual Mock Trial Program is
governed by the rules set forth in the Case Packet. Teams are asked
to pay particular attention to the following:
KNOWLEDGE OF THE RULES: Teams are responsible
and accountable for knowing and abiding by all the tournament
rules. Rules may not be waived even by mutual consent of the
parties. Any violation of the rules could result in disciplinary
action that may consist of forfeiture or disqualification for the
offending team(s).
COURTROOM COURTESY/DECORUM: To allow students
to experience first hand how a real courtroom operates, the
Massachusetts Bar Association schedules all trial enactments before
sitting judges in district courthouses, whenever possible. While
mock trials are taking place, the court is conducting its regular
business. Accordingly, all students, teachers, and spectators are
expected to conduct themselves with maturity and decorum, and to
treat host judges and all courthouse personnel with all due
TRIAL SPACE COURTESY: Trial enactments are
subject to the physical constraints of the individual courtrooms.
Students and spectators may not rearrange courtroom furniture or
remove equipment from any other courthouse office unless they have
received the permission of the court. Teams are responsible for
restoring the courtroom to its original condition at the conclusion
of the trial, ready for the next day's business.
PLAGIARISM: Arguments presented in court are
expected to be the team's own effort. As with all academic work,
plagiarism is prohibited. With the ready availability of videotapes
of the trials, a team might inadvertently appropriate another
team's strategy or arguments. Coaches should exercise supervision
over the use of videotapes to ensure that they are used
WITHDRAWAL/CANCELLATIONS: The decision to
participate in the Mock Trial Program is a serious commitment and
should not be undertaken lightly. It is inconsiderate when a school
withdraws from a trial and/or the tournament at the last minute,
after the other side has prepared carefully for the trial, made
plans to leave school early and arranged for transportation.
Withdrawing on the day of the trial is also insensitive to the
courts, which have agreed to clear courtroom space, and to the
judges and attorneys who have volunteered to hear the cases. Teams
are asked to consider carefully their decision to participate in
the tournament and then honor their commitment.
If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please call the
Mock Trial staff at (617) 338-0570 or e-mail Mock Trial.

But we must go to his letters to find proof positive of his sympathy with the breaking away from classicism.
It begins with some observations on Romanticism and classicism.
The only point in question was, how to avoid the one-sidedness of classicism.
That Christian expression and classicism were incompatible, he never believed.
To-day, perhaps, a return to classicism is perceptible in his poetry.
The spirit of classicism was in the air in the days of Wedgwood.
His "Decadence" was the work of a decadent, a decadent of classicism.
He received the highest eulogy known to the classicism of the time.
Their subject-matter is bucolic or amatory, and, if devotional, their classicism deprives it of the accent of piety.
The grace of his pictures is modern; their classicism is a disguise.
An approach to aesthetics that favors restraint, rationality, and the use of strict forms in literature, painting, architecture, and other arts. It flourished in ancient Greece and Rome, and throughout Europe in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Classicists often derived their models from the ancient Greeks and Romans.
Note: Classicism is sometimes considered the opposite of romanticism.

Cops called on Kenya Moore while filming new season of 'RHOA'
The Real Housewives of Atlanta have started filming their sixth season, and after some drama, it's finally clear than Kenya Moore will be back on the hit reality show.
Just when we thought her eviction saga was over, it looks like she's still battling her landlord, Conya Dillon. The disgruntled owner of the mansion Kenya has been renting called the cops on her for filming her move out without permission.
"There were camera crews filming Kenya's departure for an episode of Housewives. The landlord called the police because Kenya should not be on the property, nor did she give permission for anyone to be filming," said a neighbor.
Kenya doesn't seem too phased by the run in, as she took to Twitter to reiterate her innocence to her fans, #teamtwirl. "I WON my eviction case and it was vacated! Proved I didn't owe any late rent. Thanks for all your support! Moving on and up."


text: Last week it was revealed that John Mayer has been cheating on Katy Perry with a long time girlfriend and this week, Life & Style says that John spends a great deal of time texting with former Bachelorette Emily Maynard. I can see that. I don't think John ever closes off his options. You know that Katy never wants to look at his phone because she would have to dump him right then. It is one thing to suspect he is cheating and to catch him when you first started dating, but now? That would probably crush her. The magazine says that Emily is at home all day and bored so flirts with guys via text.

Fedora does it right, again
There's a lot of news coming out of Raleigh lately, and you know for sure that I have a lot to say — good things, of course — about Red Hat and CentOS joining forces. But for now, perhaps the most informed commentary on this issue comes from Karsten Wade in his personal blog.
So if you can hold that thought, I want to touch on another issue before it gets too late.
You've read this here before, but it bears repeating: The six-month distribution release cycle is a myth. For whatever reason, tying a distro's development to a set date twice on the calendar, rather than letting the development process work out the details of when a distro should be released, leads to unrealistic expectations, at the very least. At worst, it results in broken pieces in the new release.
TL;DR: Distros should be released when they're ready.
Yes, there are extremes to this rule, and we're looking at you, Debian. But the fact remains that headaches for developers and users can be avoided by letting the process take its course and allow a reasonable amount of time to provide for a solid distro. This is surely not too much to ask, in contrast to the alternative: being shackled by a six-month cycle that geometrically increases pressure to release with a lesser regard to quality in order to make the deadline.
So it comes with a great deal of surprise — the good kind — that the Fedora Project's Jaroslav Resnik wrote in his blog that as the schedule-wrangler, he gets asked the question. Letting him describe it, "Is Fedora 21 going to be released in the old model way, or new one? Hard to answer right now. But there's one date – F21 is not going to be released earlier than in August (and I'd say late August)."
His blog item outlines why we're not going to get Fedora 21 in May or June — as the six-month cycle would have it — and the reasons why are rational and commendable. In fact, there's surely no harm in waiting for certain programs vital to the distro be ready before unleashing it on the public. Jaroslav's explanation provides a good insight into why it's good to not be bound by the calendar.
Plus — and this is pure speculation — if Fedora has something special for Fedora 21, I for one am glad to give them a little more time to provide it.
So thank you, Fedora, for getting it right yet again.
One regrettable item related to this issue is that the Fedora Project dropped its semi-annual brouhaha otherwise known as the release name discussion and election. Fedora will no longer have an accompanying release names with each subsequent number, which is unfortunate because it was one of the fun things to look forward to with each release. My guess is that Beefy Miracle had put this process off the rails, though it's good that Schrodinger's Cat got in before they curtailed the names.
See you next week, if not sooner.

I really agree with release when ready. When I see Fedora or someone else delay a release, I don't see it as a setback, I see it as responsible. I love new features in GNU/Linux Distro's, I get excited about them, but I find myself constantly returning to Debian Stable, though I confess I have backports pinned to automatically be installed when available. My test computer is for a new distro, or Debian testing or unstable. I'm amazed at folks like Vast One who shows what you can do with a vision, Phillip of Crunchbang (How's that for a title?). I'm getting long winded and a little off topic, like your article this week, as always of course!

"I think the easiest one right off the bat was Kristen because of her relationship with Pattinson; plus, New Moon and Twilight were such a success. And just at that time she was hitting it big with The Runaways with Dakota Fanning. The Runaways was kind of a great but wasted opportunity, because the film was horribly directed and terribly shot, but their performances isolated from that were great."
Taylor Momsen, 2010
"With Taylor Momsen, it's utterly synthetic. I have this expression of her barely tolerating being photographed. Granted, it's not the heavy makeup she employs for her rock 'n' roll career, but this was just at that turning point, and I felt that was important. I put her in there and a lot of people said, 'Why do you have Taylor Momsen in there?' But with her pretty reckless, bad-girl image and the crazy things she's doing in the press, she's almost out-Courtneying Courtney at this point, honestly. Plus, she looks great, and she has more of a masculine feeling in her pose than a lot of the men do in this whole series."

Topic: FOLFIRI
cholangiocarcinoma.org :: Cholangiocarcinoma Foundation Discussion Board
a resource for patients, friends, caregivers and loved ones.
You are not logged in. Please login or register.
Dear Marions:
In our today's visit, our oncologist decided to give FOLFIRI + Avastin to my wife who has been treated with Gemzar based drugs for 4months. I was wondering who else has received the similar treatment. I searched the whole forum but only find this link. Do you have any more info about treating Cholangiocarcinama with FOLFIRI based combination?
Bill Liu
Hello Bill&Lulu.....There had been several postings re: the FOLFIRY combination however, I don't remember the individual outcomes. It appears that since the Gem/Cis combo has become the first ever established standard of care, FOLIRY has been prescribed less often. This does not mean though, that Lulu may not show a favorable response to this combination of drugs. Bill, if you have any doubt or questions re: the recommendation of your oncologist and if you are interested in doing so, then you might want to gather a few more opinions from other specialists treating Cholangiocarcinoma.
When attending the GI ASCO in Florida I asked a similar question regarding a non-response to Gem/Cis and what then would a patient receive. The answer was confirmed by several other physicians: Then it is up to the oncologist to try other drugs in various combinations depending, on what he/she chooses.
I hope this helped.
Good luck and all my best wishes coming your way,
Hi Bill, I was going to ask this under another post you have but since Marion mentioned it, I wanted to say don't forget you can get second opinions from other doctors at any time. May I ask who you are using out here?

Season: 1
Episode Number: 2
Season Episode Number: 2
Production Number: 100
Airdate: November 26, 2010
Writer: Greg Weisman
Director: Sam Liu
Voices: Jesse McCartney (Robin), Jason Spisak (Kid Flash), Khary Payton (Aqualad), Nolan North (Superboy, Superman), Danica McKellar (Miss Martian), Bruce Greenwood (Batman), René Auberjonois (Blockbuster), Crispin Freeman (Guardian), Phil LaMarr (Dubbliex), Unknown (Light).
Plot: Deep on the 52nd sublevel of Project Cadmus, Robin, Kid Flash, and Aqualad discover a clone of Superman.
Review (Warning! Spoilers!): While the majority of this episode follows the team as they try to escape from Project Cadmus and is a little light on plot, there is plenty to talk about!
The first thing that came to my attention while watching this episode is the level of violence. It's quite violent, and in a much more intense way than Justice League. The design of the show is not as streamlined and stylized as the DCAU, making it look much more mature, and the violence is played out to match the maturity. I would even go as far as to say that it is almost on the same level as the PG-13 DC Universe Animated Original Movies (sans blood, of course).
I'm not complaining. I appreciate the producers aiming this show at a higher age demographic.
Another thing that came to my attention is this characterization of Robin. This is a very seasoned Robin, not moody like the Batman: TAS Dick Grayson, but not a young brat like in The New Batman Adventures. He is closer to the leader-type that we see in Teen Titans, but without that style of humour. It is good to see him being taken seriously.
I'm also quite impressed with this new Aqualad. Creating a new character for a show is always a bit trick because of the potential backlash from the fans, ESPECIALLY when you give him the name of a pre-existing character! However, Geoff Johns did a super job of making him interesting and mysterious, completely different from Garth, yet living up to his moniker. (Apparently Johns liked this character so much he decided to introduce him to the DC comic book universe, which ended up pre-dating this show by a few months.)
If people haven't figured it out already, Young Justice isn't adapting any comic storyline. Everything here is new, especially Superboy's origin. Bypassing the whole "don't call me Superboy" phase that spun out of the Death of Superman epic, this Superboy is serious and will be a very interesting character to watch as he experiences everything for the first time.
The level of animation is very impressive in this show. The characters sport fairly detailed designs (much more so than Justice League) which is much more work to animate, but the team at Warner Bros. Animation does a fantastic job! This episode is a very good example due to its intense action sequences.
I did notice, however, that one the League showed up, the drawings looked really flat. It might be because they were backlit, so the shading that was used to round out the characters in the rest of the episode couldn't be used in the same way. Whatever the reason, it brought me out of the episode.
All in all, the Young Justice two-part premiere blew away my already high expectations for this show. Every aspect of the production has been well thought out and executed. With the DCAU behind us, this show promises to be the start of a new era of DC animation.

2) Good work in the tutorial.
But in my case it helped me.
My card Nvidia Gforce FX5500 does not work well in BT5 r1.
One can only 720x576 resolution, thereby
occupies at most 1 / 4 of the monitor.
hi azure,
i've the similar old video-card and work-fine no cuda(NOT-SUPPORT)
download this driver from nvidia-site: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux-d...31-driver.html
-save in /root
-exit from "x" (log .out)
-chmod +x "name complete of file.pkg1.run"
-sh "name complete of file.pkg1.run"
the first operation before is prepare-kernel-sources (look in the WIKI-backtrack)bye
the Nvidia piece worked, But what a nuisance, was hoping this was all fixed in new release. I love Backtrack, but 5 has been a nightmare. and R1 still needs improving. Nice having Cuda hashcat if it actually worked.
So much user fail...
- SSLstrip is installed by default and can be found as ArchAngel allready pointed out.
- Ettercap also is installed by default and works fine
- NMAP works fine, just disable monitor modes first before using it
Just tested all 3 things on my own BT5 R1 install...
hello boy "zimmaro"
I'm glad for your help. But I'm still with the problem.
Could you be more objective in a tutorial (wiki), I could not understand his idea.
Thanks again
"BT5 Bugued == MS Vista. A nightmare"
Icons are still a mess: /usr/share/icons/Humanity/* needs it's files replaced with what exists in "/usr/share/icons/Humanity /*". I would suggest replacing each file one at a time, since I'm not that good to instruct with diff. Maybe someone else could write up a script.
I'm having trouble figuring out why the installer didn't configure the xserver-xorg-video drivers, so that not all of them were installed by default. Also libdrm-noveau and some others are also installed and absolutely cannot be removed: Please fix!
No updates on background or other desktop stuff? What's up? Did we just add an updated kernel and break a few things or what?
Keep up the great work!

How Social Media Creates a Modern-Day "Scarlet Letter"
Social media networks can be a great place for friends and classmates to post photos, share links and stay in touch. However, away from the eyes of teachers and parents, social media networks have also turned into a place where bullies can cause more damage than ever.
One form this bullying takes is posting sexually explicit photos of female friends or peers on sites like Facebook, for everyone to see. This so-called "slut-shaming" is intended to embarrass a girl for her sexual conduct, and can make her life difficult at school. Temitayo of Radio Rookies tackled the issue by talking to victims and victimizers in her community.
To listen to the audio version of Temitayo's story, hit play below.
Caution: This story contains some sexually graphic descriptions.
Temitayo also hosted an online live chat for teens. You can find out more about the chat and other Radio Rookies resources here.

By Elaine Gordon Special to The Washington Post
Something about soft-serve ice cream makes it irresistible on a sweltering summer day. Don't deny your taste buds. Just make sure to keep it healthful.
This homemade version combines the idea of soft-serve with the health benefits of plain, nonfat Greek yogurt and raspberries. The result should be smooth, creamy and thick.
Greek yogurt has a rich, creamy texture and is thicker than regular yogurt. Greek yogurt contains nearly twice the protein of regular yogurt, fewer carbohydrates and less sugar because of the straining process, which removes some of the whey.
Raspberries are a delicate yet powerful little fruit. A cup of raspberries offers up high amounts of both heart-healthy dietary fiber (32 percent of your daily value) and the powerful antioxidant Vitamin C (40 percent of your daily value).
Fresh raspberries may be used, but they need to be frozen until firm to achieve the proper soft-serve consistency.
The plain yogurt needs to be frozen for 30 minutes before blending. The soft-serve is best on the day it's made.
Lightened-up raspberry soft-serve
½ cup plain Greek-style nonfat yogurt
½ cup frozen (unsweetened) raspberries
Scant ½ teaspoon powdered stevia, or to taste
1 teaspoon agave nectar / syrup (optional)
Freeze the yogurt for 30 minutes. Transfer to a mini food processor or blender. Add the raspberries and powdered stevia; blend until smooth. Taste, and add stevia or agave nectar, if desired.
Serve right away. Makes 1 ¾ cup serving.
Nutrition: Per serving: 97 calories, 12 g protein, 12 g carbohydrates, 0 g fat, 0 g saturated fat, 0 mg cholesterol, 48 mg sodium, 4 g dietary fiber, 7 g sugar.

2011 Annual Report
IMS Annual Report of Operations
for the Fiscal Year 2011
(January 1, 2011 – December 31, 2011)
During 2011, a total of 255 days of teacher-led courses were offered at the Retreat Center, and 365 days for personal retreats were offered at the Forest Refuge. A total of 53 teachers, including four monks and one nun from the ordained sangha, taught the Buddha's priceless teachings throughout this period. Retreat highlights included:
- Courses at the Retreat Center for specific audiences: women, people of color, teens, young adults (18-32 year olds), families, new meditation students, experienced students, caregivers and scientists and educators.
- Three courses at the Retreat Center were offered on a You Choose fee basis, allowing retreatants to establish their own course fee. Five You Choose fee spaces were offered at any given time throughout the year at the Forest Refuge for stays of 14 days or longer.
2,655 individuals participated in retreats at IMS during 2011. Some sat more than one retreat yielding a total of 2,949 registrations. Pertinent information about those who sat at IMS is a follows:
- 65% were women, 35% were men
- 17% were under the age of 32 years
- 42% had never been to IMS before
- 28% received some form of financial assistance valued at $388,870
- 44% of all yogi nights were supported with some form of financial assistance.
Our occupancy rate at the Retreat Center was 91% and at the Forest Refuge it was 86%.
Financial results of operations
Total operating expenses for the year (net of depreciation and investment fees) were $3,506,559. Revenues from registrations for retreats covered 53% of our expenses; the rest came from donations and investment income. Clearly, IMS continues to rely heavily on donations to keep rates affordable and to sustain operations.
The following revenue and expense information is derived from our audited financial statement.

you should ask at the compiz forums...
First off, I'm gonna be typing this by hand as i'm not very familiar with command line, and am not sure how to copy/paste my xorg.conf here in text mode...
I have a Radeon 9550 in a desktop pc. Using balding parrot's tut for live w/changes, I had a working BT3 distro, but of course compiz wasn't working (and who doesn't want compiz?). So I went to the wiki and followed the link to the compiz site and found the latest driver for my card
I downloaded the fglrx driver and everything seemed to go alright. shut down and restarted compiz-fusion with no change, so i rebooted. I have been booting the compiz version of bt3, without startx in the boot options, then running xconf at prompt, followed by startx which has worked fine until now.
On reboot, X failed to initialize:
"(WW) fglrx: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:2:0:1) found

Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor
Augusta, Maine 04330
Family counseling is used to address negative patterns of behavior between family members and can involve as little as two family members or many family members. Family counseling focuses on what happens between the individuals that make up the family, rather than what is going on with individual family members. This type of counseling works best when all family members can participate, however, it can be done with parts of a family.

I Blame Educational Television…
July 6th, 2011
Subterfuge, as a character trait, appears early. Guilt always won when my older son spilled or broke something, so I was unprepared for my second son's imaginative streak. At the age of four, he informed my in-laws that his brother was in the hospital to get rid of his "extra" fingers. Seven years later, I still find forbidden candy bar wrappers behind the TV cabinet. I joke that he will grow up to be either a lawyer or a used car salesman, but to appease my worries I started reading "prodigy fiction". In these books featuring brilliant child narrators, depth of imagination and cunning lead to mysteries being solved or family issues resolved, not juvenile delinquency. Straight forward and quick moving, they provide a surprising perspective. Here are a few to try:
What Was Lost by Catherine O'Flynn
Playing Harriet the Spy has dire consequences for a lonely ten-year-old girl. Twenty years later, the girl's stuffed monkey is found in the employee area of the mall where she disappeared. Did she ever leave?
Blacklands by Belinda Bauer
When digging on the moor fails to turn up his uncle's body, twelve-year-old Steven starts writing letters to the serial killer believed to have killed him. In looking for closure for his family, Steven manages to give the killer a new lease on life.
The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie by C. Alan Bradley
An 11-year-old expert in poisons and the art of sibling revenge, Flavia outwits the local constabulary in determining how the dead man in the cucumber patch came to be there and why.
The Selected Works of T.S. Spivet by Reif Larsen
Having won an award for his meticulous scientific drawings, T.S. explores both his journey East to accept his prize and the history of his adventurous family. The margins of the book overflow with samples of the narrator's maps and illustrations, adding another level to the story.
Room by Emma Donoghue
