Evolution of Operating System
Operating System
An OS is system software that manages computer hardware and software resources and provides common services for computer programs. All computer programs, excluding firmware, require an operating system to function.
Types of Operating System
Single- and multi-tasking
A single-tasking system can only run one program at a time, while a multi-tasking operating system allows more than one program to be running in concurrency. This is achieved by time-sharing, dividing the available processor time between multiple processes that are each interrupted repeatedly in time slices by a task-scheduling subsystem of the operating system.
Single- and multi-user
Single-user operating systems have no facilities to distinguish users, but may allow multiple programs to run in tandem. A multi-user operating system extends the basic concept of multi-tasking with facilities that identify processes and resources, such as disk space, belonging to multiple users, and the system permits multiple users to interact with the system at the same time. Time-sharing operating systems schedule tasks for efficient use of the system and may also include accounting software for cost allocation of processor time, mass storage, printing, and other resources to multiple users.
A distributed operating system manages a group of distinct computers and makes them appear to be a single computer. The development of networked computers that could be linked and communicate with each other gave rise to distributed computing. Distributed computations are carried out on more than one machine. When computers in a group work in cooperation, they form a distributed system.
In an OS, distributed and cloud computing context, templating refers to creating a single virtual machine image as a guest operating system, then saving it as a tool for multiple running virtual machines. The technique is used both in virtualization and cloud computing management, and is common in large server warehouses.
Embedded operating systems are designed to be used in embedded computer systems. They are designed to operate on small machines like PDAs with less autonomy. They are able to operate with a limited number of resources. They are very compact and extremely efficient by design. Windows CE and Minix 3 are some examples of embedded operating systems.
A real-time operating system is an operating system that guarantees to process events or data by a specific moment in time. A real-time operating system may be single- or multi-tasking, but when multitasking, it uses specialized scheduling algorithms so that a deterministic nature of behavior is achieved. An event-driven system switches between tasks based on their priorities or external events while time-sharing operating systems switch tasks based on clock interrupts
A library operating system is one in which the services that a typical operating system provides, such as networking, are provided in the form of libraries. These libraries are composed with the application and configuration code to construct unikernels which are specialized, single address space, machine images that can be deployed to cloud or embedded environments.
Evolution of Operating Systems
The evolution of operating systems is directly dependent to the development of computer systems and how users use them. Here is a quick tour of computing systems through the past fifty years in the timeline.
Early Evolution
1945: ENIAC, Moore School of Engineering, University of Pennsylvania.
1949: EDSAC and EDVAC
1949: BINAC - a successor to the ENIAC
1951: UNIVAC by Remington
1956: The interrupt
1954-1957: FORTRAN was developed
Operating Systems by the late 1950s
By the late 1950s Operating systems were well improved and started supporting following usages. It was able to Single stream batch processing. It could use Common, standardized, input/output routines for device access. Program transition capabilities to reduce the overhead of starting a new job was added. Error recovery to clean up after a job terminated abnormally was added. Job control languages that allowed users to specify the job definition and resource requirements were made possible.
Operating Systems in 1960s
1961: The dawn of minicomputers
1962: Compatible Time-Sharing System (CTSS) from MIT
1963: Burroughs Master Control Program (MCP) for the B5000 system
1964: IBM System/360
1960s: Disks become mainstream
1966: Minicomputers get cheaper, more powerful, and really useful
1967-1968: The mouse
1964: and onward: Multics
1969: The UNIX Time-Sharing System from Bell Telephone Laboratories
Supported OS Features by 1970s
Multi User and Multi-tasking was introduced. Dynamic address translation hardware and Virtual machines came into picture. Modular architectures came into existence Personal, interactive systems came into existence.
Accomplishments after 1970
1971: Intel announces the microprocessor
1972: IBM comes out with VM the Virtual Machine Operating System
1973: UNIX 4th Edition is published
1973: Ethernet
1974: The Personal Computer Age begins
1974: Gates and Allen wrote BASIC for the Altair
1976: Apple II
August 12, 1981: IBM introduces the IBM PC
1983: Microsoft begins work on MS-Windows
1984: Apple Macintosh comes out
1990: Microsoft Windows 3.0 comes out
1991: GNU/Linux
1992: The first Windows virus comes out
1993: Windows NT
And the research and development work still goes on, with new operating systems being developed and existing ones being improved to enhance the overall user experience while making operating systems fast and efficient like they have never been before.
Evolution of Windows Operating System
The following details the history of MS-DOS and Windows operating systems designed for personal computers (PCs).
MS-DOS Microsoft Disk Operating System (Aug 1981)
MS-DOS ( Microsoft Disk Operating System) is a discontinued operating system for x86-based personal computers mostly developed by Microsoft. It was the most commonly used member of the DOS family of operating systems, and was the main operating system for IBM PC compatible personal computers during the 1980s and the early 1990s, when it was gradually superseded by operating systems offering a graphical user interface (GUI), in various generations of the graphical Microsoft Windows operating system by Microsoft Corporation.
It is a single user operating system and is a command user interface (CUI). It interprets commands typed on the DOS mode. A special POWER programs helps to conserve the battery power when all the application and hardware devices are sitting idle.

Evolution of Windows Operating System
Windows 1.0 – 2.0 (1985-1992)
Introduced in 1985, Microsoft Windows 1.0 was named due to the computing boxes, or "windows" that represented a fundamental aspect of the operating system. Instead of typing MS-DOS commands, windows 1.0 allowed users to point and click to access the windows.In 1987 Microsoft released Windows 2.0, which was designed for the designed for the Intel 286 processor. This version added desktop icons, keyboard shortcuts and improved graphics support.
Windows 3.0 – 3.1 (1990–1994)
Windows 3.0 was released in May, 1900 offering better icons, performance and advanced graphics with 16 colors designed for Intel 386 processors. This version is the first release that provides the standard "look and feel" of Microsoft Windows for many years to come. Windows 3.0 included Program Manager, File Manager and Print Manager and games (Hearts, Minesweeper and Solitaire). Microsoft released Windows 3.1 in 1992.
Windows 95 (August 1995)
Windows 95 was released in 1995 and was a major upgrade to the Windows operating system. This OS was a significant advancement over its precursor, Windows 3.1. In addition to sporting a new user interface, Windows 95 also includes a number of important internal improvements. Perhaps most important, it supports 32-bit applications, which means that applications written specifically for this operating system should run much faster. Although Windows 95 can run older Windows and DOS applications, it has essentially removed DOS as the underlying platform. This has meant removal of many of the old DOS limitations, such as 640K of main memory and 8-character filenames. Other important features in this operating system are the ability to automatically detect and configure installed hardware (plug and play).
Windows 98 (June 1998)
Windows 98 offers support for a number of new technologies, including FAT32, AGP, MMX, USB, DVD, and ACPI. Its most visible feature, though, is the Active Desktop, which integrates the Web browser (Internet Explorer) with the operating system. From the user's point of view, there is no difference between accessing a document residing locally on the user's hard disk or on a Web server halfway around the world.
Windows ME - Millennium Edition (September 2000)
The Windows Millennium Edition, called "Windows Me" was an update to the Windows 98 core and included some features of the Windows 2000 operating system. This version also removed the "boot in DOS" option.
Windows NT 31. - 4.0 (1993-1996)
A version of the Windows operating system. Windows NT (New Technology) is a 32-bit operating system that supports preemptive multitasking. There are actually two versions of Windows NT: Windows NT Server, designed to act as a server in networks, and Windows NT Workstation for stand-alone or client workstations.
Windows 2000 (February 2000)
Often abbreviated as "W2K," Windows 2000 is an operating system for business desktop and laptop systems to run software applications, connect to Internet and intranet sites, and access files, printers, and network resources. Microsoft released four versions of Windows 2000: Professional (for business desktop and laptop systems), Server (both a Web server and an office server), Advanced Server (for line-of-business applications) and Datacenter Server (for high-traffic computer networks).
Windows XP (October 2001)
Windows XP was released in 2001. Along with a redesigned look and feel to the user interface, the new operating system is built on the Windows 2000 kernel, giving the user a more stable and reliable environment than previous versions of Windows. Windows XP comes in two versions, Home and Professional. Microsoft focused on mobility for both editions, including plug and play features for connecting to wireless networks. The operating system also utilizes the 802.11x wireless security standard. Windows XP is one of Microsoft's best-selling products.
Windows Vista (November 2006)
Windows Vista offered an advancement in reliability, security, ease of deployment, performance and manageability over Windows XP. New in this version was capabilities to detect hardware problems before they occur, security features to protect against the latest generation of threats, faster start-up time and low power consumption of the new sleep state. In many cases, Windows Vista is noticeably more responsive than Windows XP on identical hardware. Windows Vista simplifies and centralizes desktop configuration management, reducing the cost of keeping systems.
Windows 7 (October, 2009)
Windows 7 was released by Microsoft on October 22, 2009 as the latest in the 25-year-old line of Windows operating systems and as the successor to Windows Vista (which itself had followed Windows XP). Windows 7 was released in conjunction with Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 7's server counterpart. Enhancements and new features in Windows 7 include multi-touch support, Internet Explorer 8, improved performance and start-up time, Aero Snap, Aero Shake, support for virtual hard disks, a new and improved Windows Media Center, and improved security.
Windows 8 (Aug 2012)
Windows 8 was released on August. 1, 2012 and is a completely redesigned operating system that's been developed from the ground up with touchscreen use in mind as well as near-instant-on capabilities that enable a Windows 8 PC to load and start up in a matter of seconds rather than in minutes.Windows 8 will replace the more traditional Microsoft Windows OS look and feel with a new "Metro" design system interface that first debuted in the Windows Phone 7 mobile operating system. The Metro user interface primarily consists of a "Start screen" made up of "Live Tiles," which are links to applications and features that are dynamic and update in real time. Windows 8 supports both x86 PCs and ARM processors.
Windows 10 (July 2015)
Windows 10 is Microsoft's Windows successor to Windows 8. Windows 10 debuted on July 29, 2015, following a "technical preview" beta release of the new operating system that arrived in Fall 2014 and a "consumer preview" beta in early 2015. Microsoft claims Windows 10 features fast start up and resume, built-in security and the return of the Start Menu in an expanded form. This version of Windows will also feature Microsoft Edge, Microsoft's new browser. Any qualified device (such as tablets, PCs, smartphones and Xbox consoles) can upgrade to Windows 10, including those with pirated copies of Windows.

OS X has been known over the years for its simplicity, aesthetic interface, advanced technologies, applications, security and accessibility options. From the Finder to Spotlight, the Dock to iCloud, OS X has been integrated into Apple's hardware, as well as iOS devices, so users can easily work and navigate.
Mac OS X 10.0 Cheetah (March 2001)
The system requirements for Mac OS X 10.0 were not well received by the Macintosh community, as at the time the amount of RAM standard with Macintosh computers was 64 megabytes (MB), while the Mac OS X 10.0 requirements called for 128 MB of RAM. In addition, processor upgrade cards, which were quite popular for obsolete pre-G3 Power Macintosh computers, were not supported (and never officially have been, but can be made to work through third-party utility programs). Additionally the new operating system required more hard drive space, causing longer boot times.It takes 800MB space in HD for Installation.
Mac OS X 10.1 Puma (Sep 2001)
It provided faster menu navigation and log-in as well as configurable options, such as a movable Dock and new system menus with controls for volume, battery life and AirPort access on the menu bar. iTunes was bundled with OS X 10.1 with CD burning capabilities, DVD playback and support for third-party digital cameras and MP3 players, RAM required 128MB and it takes 1.5GB space in after installation.
Mac OS 10.2 Jaguar (May 2002)
Mac OS X Jaguar required a PowerPC G3 or G4 CPU and 128 MB of RAM. Special builds were released for the first PowerPC G5 systems released by Apple. Mac OS X Jaguar introduced many new features to the Mac OS that remain to this day, including MPEG-4 support in QuickTime, Address Book, Inkwell for handwriting recognition, and Apple Mail. It als0included the first release of Apple's Zeroconf implementation.
Mac OS 10.3 Panther (June 2003)
It included Expose, a useful feature that let users instantly view all open windows at once, view windows of a current program or just view files on the desktop. It required 1.5GB space in HD for installation and at least 128MB of RAM. It has PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor with 333MHz faster speed. and the internet access speed was 100kbps.
Mac OS 10.4 Tiger (May 2004)
It was most popular version of Mac OS before. It included a universal search client, Spotlight, which allowed users to search their entire system from the menu bar for files, emails, contacts, images, calendars and applications. Dashboard featured widgets for weather, flight information, stock tickers and more. It requires 256GB RAM and 3GB space in HD for installation.
Mac OS 10.5 Leopard (Oct 2007)
Apple introduced OS X Leopard at WWDC 2006, and it became a redefining moment for its software, since it was noted to be the largest update of OS X. It featured a modernized look with a three-dimensional, reflective Dock, a semitransparent menu bar, larger drop shadows for active windows and new high-resolution icons. It requires 512MB RAM and 9GB space in HD for installation.
Mac OS 10.6 Snow Leopard (June 2009)
Mac OS X Snow Leopard (version 10.6) is the seventh major release of Mac OS X (now named macOS), Apple's desktop and server operating system for Macintosh computers. Mac computer with an Intel processor (IA-32). "Yonah" processors such as Core Solo and Core Duo can run only 32-bit applications; later x86-64 architecture processors such as Core 2 Duo, Core i5 and i7 are also able to run 64-bit applications. 1GB RAM and 5GB of HD space requires for installation.
Mac OS 10.7 Lion (Oct 2010)
It brought developments made in Apple's iOS, such as an easily navigable display of installed applications called Launchpad and a greater use of multi-touch gestures, to the Mac. This release removed Rosetta, making it incompatible with PowerPC applications.
Mac OS 10.8 Mountain Lion (July 2012)
It incorporates some features seen in iOS 5, which include Game Center, support for iMessage in the new Messages messaging application, and Reminders as a to-do list app separate from iCal (which is renamed as Calendar, like the iOS app). It also includes support for storing iWork documents in iCloud. 2GB of memory is required.

Oleg Blokhin urged Ukraine's fans to take their cue from Ireland's supporters after being irked by the boos that rained down on his players after their 2-0 loss to France on Friday.
Euro 2012 | Features | Fixtures | Photos
Euro 2012 co-hosts Ukraine went into the game at Donetsk's Donbass Arena buoyed by their opening 2-1 victory over Sweden in Group D, but they went home deflated after a game held up for nearly an hour due to a thunderstorm.
The jubilation of last Monday seemed a distant memory as Ukraine's players trooped off the sodden turf, but Blokhin said his team's fans should take inspiration from the Ireland supporters who continued singing throughout their 4-0 loss to Spain on Thursday.
"It's not fair," he said. "The supporters supported the team in the first game. I saw the Irish fans during the game with Spain, and they supported their team until the end.
"If the team plays well, you support them. If the team doesn't play well, you support them anyway. You should always support your team.
"We feel like, if we're winning, everything is fine, but if things go badly, everyone deserves to be shot.
"Look, I'm responsible -- whistle at me. Don't whistle at the players. They tried their best."
Blokhin displayed signs of irritation in his post-match press conference, snapping at local journalists who asked him how he would repair his players' confidence in time for Tuesday's decisive final group game with England.
He also admitted to being disappointed by the way his players gave up the ghost after France established a 2-0 lead through quick-fire goals from Jeremy Menez and Yohan Cabaye early in the second period.
"I didn't like the way that, after the second goal, my team stopped playing," he said.
"We conceded the first goal from a counter-attack and everything went wrong from that moment. We couldn't predict it. And then we conceded the second goal and it was all over."
Ukraine's players had to kick their heels in the changing room for almost an hour after a sudden downpour forced the game to be temporarily halted early in the first half, but Blokhin said the delay did not have a bearing on the result.
"We didn't know if play would continue but after a quarter of an hour, we started another warm-up," he said.
"The conditions were the same for both teams. Maybe France got used to the conditions more quickly but France are one of the best teams in world football and I think they're one of the favourites at this tournament."

Item description for Play Golf Forever: Treating Low Back Pain and Improving Your Golf Swing Through Fitness by Michael Jaffe...PLAY GOLF FOREVER: Treating Low Back Pain and Improving Your Golf Swing Through Fitness is an overall look at low back pain as it relates to golf and it includes information on when you need to see a doctor as well as on types of medical treatments for low back pain. The core of the book is an exercise program designed to strengthen the lower back for the rigors of golf--functional training for core strengthening. Citing a few stories of patients from his SPorts Medicine practice in Southern California, where people can golf year round, Dr. Michael Jaffe focuses on the message that motion is life. Jaffe, who is a golfer as well as a triathlete, mixes medical information with a physiological examination of a golf swing and then offers an exercise program that is designed specifically to strengthen a golfer's back. Low back pain is very common in golfers. What should be common knowledge among golfers--in fact, among all of us-- is that exercise is the best thing you can do to ease your pain. By making clear that exercise works, PLAY GOLF FOREVER is an inspirational book that educates, motivates and demonstrates. Someone once said, "There is nothing more obvious than the gracefulness of a well-timed golf swing." Learning the mechanics of such a golf swing, especially as it relates to back health, is another cornerstone of this book. This book is split into three parts--examining the back, the game of golf as it relates to the back, and the exercise program. These three parts are book ended by two inspirational chapters explaining the power of the body to heal itself, and how functional training recharges that power. Part One of PLAY GOLF FOREVER delves into an explanation of the many kindsof lower back pain, when to see a doctor, including a list of red-flag symptoms, and then an overall look at the various treatments available. Part Two of the book examines why golfers get lower back, including a look at the four major causes, as well as a comparison between golfers with and without lower back pain. This part will also examine the golf swing in pieces so that golfers can understand exactly what their body is doing during this quick burst of athleticism. Part Three of PLAY GOLF FOREVER offers an examination of how muscles and nerves work together and then how functional training for core strengthening is designed to challenge and improve the way the body works. Finally, this part will delve into a stretching program to be used before playing as well as throughout a game on the course. PLAY GOLF FOREVER is a book for those who want to play golf but feel hampered by their lower back. Though it does include a few stories from Dr. Jaffe's practice as well as from the world of professional golf, this book is not designed as a narrative. It is a self-help book in its most basic form. It offers information, inspiration, and instruction. It offers a way for people to play golf forever.

Pentagon Rethinks Its 18-Year Ban on Photos and Videos of Coffins Bearing War Dead Home
"This is very much Democratically driven to make it available to the public so they can publicize the negative side of the war and show the American public there is a high cost to be paid here," said Cal Peters, whose stepson, Marine Capt. Garret Lawton, died Aug. 4 in Afghanistan. "I think this is the ultimate disrespect."
Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates expects a review of the issue back within days, Pentagon press secretary Geoff Morrell said Friday. Gates is seeking "a way to better balance an individual family's privacy concerns with the right of the American people to honor these fallen heroes" and "is disposed, leaning, tilting towards trying to do more, if possible" to allow coverage of the ceremony, Morrell said.
At Arlington National Cemetery, the next of kin of the deceased service member decide whether to allow coverage by news reporters and photographers, who are kept far enough from the mourners so they cannot hear what is being said.
That policy "has worked well," said John C. Metzler Jr., the cemetery's superintendent. "Obviously it is traumatic, but how the military does it, with the precision and respect, is a very positive thing. I think the public also looks at it as positive."
Pictures of casualties have long played into the politics of a war -- most notably in Vietnam, dubbed the "living-room war" for its extensive television coverage, including footage of coffins rolling off planes at Hickam Air Force Base in Hawaii as if off a conveyor belt.
President George H.W. Bush's administration imposed the ban on media coverage of the arrival of fallen troops' remains at Dover Air Force Base during the Gulf War in February 1991. It came about after a controversy arose when Bush held a news conference at the same moment the first U.S. casualties were returning to Dover the day after the U.S. invasion of Panama in 1989, and three television networks carried the events live on split screen, with Bush appearing at one point to joke while on the opposite screen the solemn ceremony unfolded at the Delaware base.
Indeed, starting in the 1990s, politicians and generals used the term "the Dover test" to describe the public's tolerance for troop casualties.
Still, experts say that if images can shape public sentiment about a war, they rarely do so alone. Instead, their role in influencing opinion usually depends on the broader political narrative on whether the war is worth the cost, Lichter said.
"On Afghanistan, the public believes this is a war we must fight," Lichter said. "This is where we fight the Taliban, this is where we fight the terrorists," he said. "So for the images to have an impact from Afghanistan, someone would have to link those images to a narrative of futility . . . that it's a quagmire."
Both Republican and Democratic administrations have upheld the Dover ban, but both have also made notable exceptions, which some observers view as politically expedient. For example, under President Bill Clinton in October 2000, the Pentagon distributed photographs of coffins arriving at Dover bearing the remains of military personnel killed in the bombing of the USS Cole.
John Clodfelter lost his son, Hull Maintenance Technician 3rd Class Kenneth Clodfelter, in the Cole attack and supports lifting the ban. "When our son's remains were returned up at Dover, there were several caskets that came off the plane, and you couldn't tell which was Kenneth and which one was not Kenneth," he said. As for whether news personnel should be allowed to cover the transfer, he said, "I don't have a problem with it myself, as long as they are at a respectable distance."
Clodfelter said he did not believe such coverage would spur antiwar sentiment among Americans. "If anything, I would hope that they would go ahead and feel sympathy for the families," he said. "The people really need to understand that, hey, lives are being lost for you, to be able to get these people that are trying to kill our loved ones. The American military does so much for us, it's unreal, and people really do not appreciate it at all."
Exceptions were also made under President George W. Bush, such as in September 2001 when the Air Force published a photo of the transfer at Dover of the remains of a victim of the terrorist attack on the Pentagon.
"When it was in the government's interest, they allowed photographers to take pictures," said Meredith Fuchs, general counsel to the National Security Archive, which provided legal representation for the Begleiter lawsuit that led the Pentagon to release in 2005 hundreds of photographs taken by government photographers. "They wanted us to be angry over a terrorist attack," she said.
Soon after the war in Afghanistan started in October 2001, however, the Pentagon restated the ban on coverage at Dover, and in March 2003, the same month that the U.S. military invaded Iraq, it expanded the policy prohibiting media coverage of the coffins of fallen troops to other ports of arrival as well.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
The landlord also moved all my items from fridge to trash, and any other items were "stored in the garage" however never returned, also all certified mail was never picked up from his po. box he would let it sit and be returned. He also kept 1100.00 from my deposit and never returned it stating I owed double but eventually let the extra fees go due to the evidence that I brought up that problems were pre existing.
Yes, this type of claim is most appropriately addressed in a small claims court lawsuit. See the links at:
Under California Civil Code section 1950.5, within 21 calendar days after a tenant moves out, the landlord must either send a full refund of the security deposit, or mail or personally deliver to the tenant an itemized statement that lists the amounts of any deductions from the security deposit and the reasons for the deductions, together with a refund of any amounts not deducted.
Pursuant to Civil Code section 1950.5, the landlord may only use the tenant's security deposit for four purposes:
1) For unpaid rent;
2) For cleaning the rental unit when the tenant moves out (but only to make the unit as clean as it was when the tenant first moved in);
3) For repair of damages, other than normal wear and tear, caused by the tenant or the tenant's guests; and
4) If the lease or rental agreement allows it, for the cost of restoring or replacing furniture, furnishings, or other items of personal property other than because of normal wear and tear.
A tenant who does not receive a return of the security deposit from the landlord will often need to sue the landlord in small claims court to get the security deposit back. However, the risk is that the landlord will likely countersue the tenant for damages above and beyond what the security deposit covered.
According to the California Supreme Court decision in the case of Granberry v. Islay Investments (1995) 9 Cal.4th 738, 745, after the 21 days have transpired, the landlord loses the right to keep any of the security deposit and must return the entire deposit to the tenant.
Landlords who effectively evict a tenant themselves without following the proper legal procedure run the risk of California penalties for self-help evictions. If a landlord violates the law, a tenant may sue the landlord. California Civil Code section 789.3 (a) provides as follows:
"789.3. (a) A landlord shall not with intent to terminate the
occupancy under any lease or other tenancy or estate at will, however
created, of property used by a tenant as his residence willfully
cause, directly or indirectly, the interruption or termination of any
utility service furnished the tenant, including, but not limited to,
water, heat, light, electricity, gas, telephone, elevator, or
refrigeration, whether or not the utility service is under the
control of the landlord.
(b) In addition, a landlord shall not, with intent to terminate
the occupancy under any lease or other tenancy or estate at will,
however created, of property used by a tenant as his or her
residence, willfully:
(1) Prevent the tenant from gaining reasonable access to the
property by changing the locks or using a bootlock or by any other
similar method or device;
(2) Remove outside doors or windows; or
(3) Remove from the premises the tenant's personal property, the
furnishings, or any other items without the prior written consent of
the tenant, except when done pursuant to the procedure set forth in
Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 1980) of Title 5 of Part 4 of
Division 3.
Nothing in this subdivision shall be construed to prevent the
lawful eviction of a tenant by appropriate legal authorities, nor
shall anything in this subdivision apply to occupancies defined by
subdivision (b) of Section 1940."
A landlord who violates California Civil Code Section 789.3 shall be liable to the tenant in a civil action for all of the following:
-- Actual damages;
-- $100/day of violation (with $250 minimum);
-- An injunction prohibiting violation during the court action;
-- The right to stay; and
-- Reasonable attorney fees and costs.

The facts you give are pretty outrageous and give rise to a possibly serious forcible entry and forcible detainer causes of action, a wrongful eviction and breach of contract action, injunctive relief, and maybe even tort emotional distress damages. In more than 25 years of unlawful detainer practice (landlord exclusively), this is the first time I have encountered a fact situation like this. Most landlords know better. Depending upon the amount of actual damages you suffered, you may want to file a superior court action, although the small claims limit of $10,000 may be high enough to compensate you. There may be even more damages in rent controlled districts. Definitely you should consult with a good attorney in your area.Ask a similar question
There was also a mold issue that I requested be done and then I was prompted with a 60 day notice to vacate. Then the landlord kept trying to get in while I was away, with letters being left on my door stating he is unsure if the rental is vacant, I then left a response in the windows that I was still there and to not enter without my permission. I moved a lot of my belongings but did not get a good portion of my items due to him entering before the end of the 60 days and changing my locks and moving all items some where else. Would it be possibly to get a deal with an attorney with a contingency or does this sounds unlikely? Thank you all for the help!!

text: Dubai: Asian countries will jointly request India to restore its cricketing ties with Pakistan at the Asian Cricket Foundation meet in Lahore on February 3, media reports said on Tuesday. However, former International Cricket Council chief Jagmohan Dalmiya, who will chair the meeting, did not state whether the meet will hold a debate on the issue at the meeting, the 'Gulf News' reported. Dalmiya said the topic did not come up for discussion at the Asian Cricket Development Committee meeting held on January 26 in Kolkata. "The issue was not raised as the meeting was called only to discuss the future development of cricket in Asian countries," he told the daily. The decision to bring all the Asian countries to Pakistan is itself being seen as a move in this direction and the organisation of Asian Test championship will be one of the important issues coming up for discussion at Lahore, the report added.

Product Description
WA 93 Pts - According to Robert Parker - An absolutely fabulous value is the 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa. This comes from multiple sources and there are 46,000+ cases of it. A stunning Cabernet Sauvignon and a classic example of Napa viticulture, this blend of 75.5% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec, was aged just over two years in oak. Loads of sweet blackcurrant fruit, cocoa, a touch of toast, earth, and baking spice are all present in this wine that has terrific fruit on the attack and mid-palate, a full-bodied mouthfeel, no hard edges and a luscious, opulent, gorgeously pure style. Drink it over the next 10-15 years. Although I wouldn't be surprised to see it last longer. For old-time reader/subscribers, this might be the modern-day equivalent of the great 1974 Souverain Vintage Selection that I recommended back in the late 1970s and is still going strong today.
Winemakers Notes - "With great complexity, the wine expresses aromas of fresh boysenberry, blackberry pie, Bing cherry, dark chocolate, chocolate berry truffle dusted with cocoa powder, all integrated with the spicy sweetness of oak, cedar, cinnamon, clove and a hint of black pepper. The body is very full with a soft entry, coupled with dark cherry/berry flavors that develop from start to finish. With great texture and mouth feel, this cabernet is full bodied, rich and opulent. In one word....delicious." 75.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16.6% Merlot, 3.3% Cabernet Franc, 2.6 % Petit Verdot, 2.0% Malbec. 14.5% ABV.

Starbucks Coffee Restaurant Review: The mass gourmet coffee culture craze that swept the country in large part has Starbucks to thank, a Seattle sensation that spread like a wildfire.

The U.S. Catholic Press On Central America traces the remarkable transformation in reporting on Central America by popular Catholic periodicals in the second half of the twentieth century. In the 1950s writers for these periodicals vigorously opposed the Arbenz government in Guatemala. Influenced by McCarthyism, secular media coverage, and reports from the archdiocese of Guatemala City, they called on the U.S. government to overthrow the Arbenz regime before its communism infected the Americas. Just fifteen years later, these same writers were lamenting the collapse of the reformist Arbenz government and calling for the U.S. to reassess its policies toward the entire Central American isthmus. What caused such a dramatic shift? In the first half of his compelling study, Edward T. Brett emphasizes the importance of U.S. missionaries in this evolutionary process. He carefully explains the effect of the murders of Archbishop Romero, the four U.S. churchwomen, and the six Jesuits and their housekeepers in El Salvador on reporting in Catholic journals. The second half of the book details the responses of the transformed U.S. Catholic press to the crises arising in Central America in

Unique drainage and water retention membrane for use where a water reservoir is required for extensive green roofs of sedum, herbaceous plants, mosses or grass above decks and roofs. Newton 420 Reservoir has a bonded geotextile that prevents intrusion of the soil into the water holding cups during back-fill and compression. This results in a permanently larger volume reservoir than any other 20mm deep green roof membrane.
|More System 400 Products:
- Unique bonded geotextile does not sag into the water holding cups as is the case with loose laid geotextiles.
- Large drainage holes allow a much higher drainage flow through the membrane than comparative products, ensuring that when the water holding cups are full, the water drains quickly so as not to waterlog the soil.
- Suspended soil particles (fines) are filtered out by the geotextile layer.
- Large drainage layer created by the 20mm HDPE core.
- Tough and durable.
- Quick and easy to install.
As a water holding and drainage layer above a deck, flat roof or pitched roof where shallow planting is used to create an extensive green roof.

Lemon as Cutting Board Cleaner
To remove tough food stains from light wood and plastic cutting boards, slice a lemon in half, squeeze onto the soiled surface, rub, and let sit for 20 minutes before rinsing. The best part? You'll have a house that smells like a lemon grove rather than chemicals.

Lately, we've been focusing on threats to security and global hot spots. And that means the week would be incomplete without a discussion of China's so-called "carrier killer."
You see, China has developed a missile that travels at Mach 10 and is intended to stymie America's ability to project forward her naval forces around the globe. The carrier killer is part of the latest strategic thinking in China's anti-access area-denial, or A2-AD, strategy.
Whenever the United States senses a threat, it sends a flotilla of ships to the area. The navy typically deploys a Carrier Strike Group (CSG) consisting of one aircraft carrier, one guided missile cruiser (for air defense), two Light Airborne Multipurpose System (LAMPS) capable warships, and one or two anti-submarine destroyers or frigates.

Japan Asks America to Stop Illegal Net Releases of Anime
What (if at all) does this mean for animesuki's future?

I don't know what this means for animesuki's future, but we knew that fan subbing wasn't legal from the start. If japan promises to sub everything they release I have no problem with it. Till then I'll keep dling my fansubs. Even if animesuki goes down. Animesuki isn't the only place to get subs. Same with pirated movies. They are everywhere. We might get less subbers, but meh you can't have everything I guess.
Though you also have to think how much will the states care? They might just ignore the fact and keep on going like they always where. They where never legal. Why start now? Don't see a reason for the States to invest money in hunting down something that won't benefit them financially or make their country better.
edit: It seems to be a request out of many. So chance of the States listening to that is close to zero. I say animesuki is safe.

Hopefully, if there is a crack down, it will focus more on series that have been officially dubbed and less on ones that haven't. Even though legally speaking it doesn't make a difference.

I wonder what do the international trade laws say about about watching a foreign media in a nation where no one has the rights to the work within that country. Would that mean that the foreign producer (in this case, the Japanese producer of the anime) have the sole international rights to the show, or is it just in Japan?

The previlence of fansubs should be evidence of a potental market. Companies didn't see it and fansubbers filled that role. I've said it in another thread, I dont' think a legit subscription or ad supported download site featuring subbed anime is too much to ask for. Give fans a legal alternative, and everyone's happy.

Conjunctions ("and", "but", "if", as a few examples) are your friends.
Frankly, it's not something I'd be worried about. IMO, they ought to consider that a small chunk of their sales come from fans checking out a series and then loving it enough to buy it. See Vexx's siggie.

I think what we are seeing here is the anime market, especially oversees is at a plateau, mainly because the many shows that are being produced are not piercing into the mainstream market, especially in America, thus it is becoming difficult to make a profit in the anime industry. Many shows that I notice being released are of the harem genre, however those shows are mainly made for the anime fan, not for the intention of mainstream media like Detective Conan, Naruto, Gundam, etc... In America only a few shows get recgonized in the mainstream market (Naruto, Pokemon, Yugioh, DBZ). What the companies should do is start to pitch these shows to the gneral public and if they are well received, then the market can expand. Right now the easiest way to try to make a buck is to stop the ilegal online distribution of anime, however that may not work considering the advancement of technology and also that this very thing does help bring shows oversees.

Don't you guys remember that music online sharing crack down long time ago? A lot of college students were sued back then and paid enormous fine, at least. There is a lot less music online sharing now. This could be like that, you know, or could it be?

Japan needs to mind Japan's business...It's easy to say scrap those fansubs when you got anime on every channel, and your favorite show is just a thumb-press a way...When Japan starts beaming a satellite signal to that $hitty dish in my backyard maybe I'll reconsider...

The problem with those individuals claiming that fansubs makes them buy more anime is that in the long run it makes more people NOT buy anime.
I personally own 0 DVDs. Reason being is lack of money. Fansubs allow me to own an endless supply of anime.

seems a bit strange. Aint all of Narutos popularity in the west, because of fansubs? I mean... fansubs is what made it possible. and now many import the anime and manga, and watch it and buy all the hundreds of games. all because of nameless fansubbers?
the anime marked in the west is relatively small. many people dont know what it is. particularly in europe. expousure through online channels will only sell the messege, and eventually turn enough people around.
remember that more people wanna be on the net than they wanna watch tv. its the evolution, no matter what.
and hopefully they will release that. people will buy what they really like, so if they take it seriously, it will sell, and pay off in the long run i think.
fansubbers are doing the anime world a favor. expousure!

There are still a ton of people though who will never spend a dime on anime, and that's the result of fansubbers.
If you want exposure, companies could enforce a preview where you can watch like the first three eps and then its up to you to buy or not. Allowing exposure through fansubs eliminates the market of people who might actually buy the product, but won't because of fansubs. Why do I need to buy a DVD of an anime when I have it all on fansubs?

BWAHAHAHA. They really think it'll stop us? You can't stop the internetz baby!
Seriously, licensed anime is one thing, but all fansubbing? What about the animes that are never licensed? They dare say we can't watch the television they're watching? Screw them. There's no sense in it. And to think how hard sites like this try to keep all products of licensed anime away, and the members who follow by such rules, this will only increase the over all amount of illegal file-sharing. How many millions of people are going to get pissed when sites like AS, FTV, and CR (just to name a few) are shut down? A lot.
It would be interesting to see if America refused and Japan declared war.
|2007-10-23, 19:04

I do say it would suck for anime that never get licensed to be blocked as well.
Although, the point about this action increasing the overall illegal file sharing is kind of funny. I doubt we are all 5 year old kids that end up doing more of something that we are told not to do.

Oh crap he already did with the $hiteous Pearl Harbor ...
Now what would be really interesting is if Japan declared war but states we can only fight using the Nintendo PowerGun and PowerGlove...Then we'll get our a$$ess kicked and totally lose fansubs for good^^...

5.0 stars 11 totalReview Lara Dethlefs
Posted by anonymous
Lara was a pleasure to work with. In my divorce proceedings she represented me through the entire process which included a motion hearing before a judge as well as mediation. Her skill set to filter out my frustrations and overall negativity at times with the divorce process was incredible. She was a master at presenting "a glass half full" approach in keeping me positive as I moved through a very challenging divorce. She is confident, but not arrogant and possesses very effective negotiation skills. I feel I received a reasonable and equitable settlement in my divorce with the majority of the credit going to Lara for putting me in a position to succeed. I would strongly recommend her to represent any person looking for a excellent attorney.
Posted by Steve
Lara handled my divorce in a very professional and attentive way. I am very thankful that I found Lara on Avvo and her performance lived up to the praise that she has received here. I would have no reservations in recommending Lara for anyone that wants or needs the expertise of an excellent lawyer. Thanks again Lara
Posted by Natalie
Lara represented me in my divorce, which was by no means an easy open and shut case. I would not hesitate to recommend Ms. Dethlefs as counsel. She was diligent, quick to respond, detailed, and, most importantly, always a strong advocate and truly cared about my situation. Ms. Dethlefs is very knowledgeable in her field and I had 100% confidence in her ability to represent me. I came into Ms. Dethlefs office in what was one of the most difficult times in my life. Her support and compassion through my divorce helped me survive such an arduous time and come through the other side stronger and more confident (and with an EXCELLENT settlement!). Thank you so much, Lara!!
Posted by George
Ms. Dethlefs was recommended by a personal friend of ours who is also a respected lawyer. Lara responded with strategic legal advice and actions the same day we contacted her. It was obvious that Lara was incredibly knowledgeable of the law and the courts. Based on her assessment of facts and data she collected from us and other sources, Lara recommended to us what we considered a very fair settlement. Despite a total lack of cooperation and stalling from the other party, Lara was able to win our desired settlement in arbitration, without going to court, and with virtually no concessions. In an all-day session, Lara remained on the offense presenting our request for a "dissolution" and a "family plan". She was better prepared with extensive and comprehensive supporting facts and data. Not going to court obviously saved us money and "agony". It was also important to us that Lara earned our total trust and was always available to talk as both our lawyer and a friend/confidant. In summary, Lara is very versed in family law, smart and quick on her feet, tough on the opposition when required, and passionate.
Posted by Sean
Lara helped me get my children back after being taken out of state in the middle of the night. I was panicked and didn't know what to do or where to go, Lara was there for me every step of the way. She was a sympathetic ear and a reassuring nudge and one hell of a pitbull in court. My case is on going but Lara got me through the most difficult part and reunited me with my children.
Posted by christine
This divorce has been put on hold and started again. Lara has been very helpful in every way. When ever i had questions she was always on top of finding an answer for me. I was asking for basicly 50% of all assets spousal support, house and car ,and thats what i got.
Posted by anonymous
I found Lara in the phone book in April of 2010 ,and she represented me in my divorce until May 2 2011.She was very thorough and straight to the point . I was pleased with the outcome of the case and would recommend her to anyone in a nasty divorce.
Posted by Neela
When I was seeking an attorney to handle my divorce, I randomly selected Lara after doing a search for attorneys in my neighborhood on the internet. The initial selection was random, but boy did I hit the jackpot when I found Lara! She was warm and friendly on the phone when we initially spoke about my case, and made herself available on short notice to see me in her office. During our first meeting, I was a complete emotional mess and thinking straight was difficult. Lara explained the process to me in a simple, clear, and concise way, and when I had questions, didn't understand something, or asked her to repeat things she's already explained, she always said, "It's OK. Keep asking me questions until you don't have any more". That statement went a long way with me as it made me feel like she wansn't in a hurry to get me out the door, and that she was genuinely interested in making sure I understood my options, the law as it pertained to my case, and how different choices would affect the outcome. Throughout the process, Lara was always responsive, organized, and dependable; I had total confidence in her.
Dealing with a divorce is difficult enough, and knowing that Lara had the legal aspect of the situation completely under control, and had my best interests at heart the entire time, was both comforting and a relief. I personally wouldn't hesitate to contact Lara again in the future, and would definitely recommend her to others with the utmost confidence.
Posted by Corey
From my first meeting with Lara I felt extremely comfortable sharing my personal information with her and equally confident of her knowledge in how to proceed with my case. I knew that she would take care of my best interests.
As we were standing in front of the judge for my divorce he went so far as to complimented her on what an excellent job she did in preparing my legal documents. And let's just say he wasn't nearly as kind to anyone else that went before us! It was not at all surprising to me but what a great pat on the back to Lara for the great job that she did! She comes HIGHLY recommended from me.
Posted by LaMont
Lara's expertise, legal counsel, and ability to answer my never ending stream of questions and concerns were invaluable in helping me to achieve a much needed Child Support adjustment following the loss of my job. Lara was sensitive to my desire to provide for my children, yet receive a reduction in my Child Support to an amount I could afford under my new circumstances. In addition to her legal counsel, I feel that Lara was a friend whom I could confide in and trust, who would emphathize with me, yet give me the straight story, even when it might not be exactly what I wanted to hear. In sum, I couldn't have selected a better attorney to help me through this difficult personal time.

Matt did a brilliant job repointing two walls of our house at a competitive price. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again in future.
Sebastian and his colleagues were fantastic. They completed the required work quickly and to a very high standard. The price quoted was just right. The team turned up on time and cleaned up after themselves - leaving the area in a much better state than when they had started. I would have no hesitation in recommending Sebastian and his team, indeed we are looking for them to do further work for us, and we have recommended them widely to neighbours.
Excellent workmanship. So good in fact we have asked him to do a lot more work for us. Friendly, conscientious, clean and tidy.
Stuart worked very hard and finished the job to a high standard and a fair price. Would highly recommend
Very professional in all areas and did an excellent job. They shared some good ideas about the future development of our garden along the way too. We will be using them again in the future.
