"Perfect location, would book again"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 26, 2013
This hotel is perfectly situated off Las Ramblas and Placa Catalunya. The staff is extremely friendly and were able to help with several recommendations. I would recommend that you bring towels and pillows with you, as theirs are somewhat undersized and not too comfy. Other than that, the room was adequately sized (for Europe), the bathroom was amazing, and the hotel was nice and quiet, despite their close proximity to the heart of the city. They even have a free ice machine on the ground floor. I have already recommended this hotel to a colleague and would definitely stay here agian. Make sure to have the churros at the cafe next door!

"Stay Was Great Except for the Noise"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 25, 2013
We stayed on the top floor, and the room was nice, spacious, clean, and elegant. However, I kept waking up throughout the night because the elevator motors would make a loud noise when people used the elevator. It wasn't a huge problem during the week when less people were using the elevator at night, but it constantly woke me up over the weekend, when people were up all hours of the night. So be warned...
""Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 25, 2013
Excellent location. Small and clean hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. Stayed in this hotel for 4 nights in February, 2013. Suggest to ask for higher floor to minimize outside noise.

Nice touch. Poured fridge cold into a brandy snifter. Appearance: Deep and dark, occasionally hinting flashes of crimson with a nice tan colored head and sticky, long lasting lace. Smell: Complex sweetness and roasted malts make you want to keep sniffing away in anticipation of what is to come. Taste: Oh boy. This is the doppelbock against which all others are measured. Sweet malt, raisins, the most subtle hint of alcohol spice, maybe a touch of toffee and dark chocolate. Absolutely delicious and the aftertaste lingers as a reminder. Additionally, it seems to get better as you sip it and as it warms revealing more complexities of malted goodness. Mouthfeel: Medium mouthfeel with beautiful carbonation not too bubbly, expected it to be heavier than it is. Creamy without being syrupy. Feel free to swish it around. An epic representation of the style and awful nifty that it's available year round. Not overly alcoholic at 6.7% which is good because you will want another. Hop bitterness is barely noticeable and serves well to keep the sweetness in balance. Well done.

Dense two finger taupe cap settles into a gentle lid with nice glass lacings. It is dense, dark and barely let's light pass through. Sweet malt aroma. Deep rich raisins. Bit of licorice. Smells really, really great. Smooth. Gentle carbonation on the middle of the tongue. Malt sweetness, raisin, molasses, hint of licorice. Hint of alcohol. Delicious. Clean aftertaste of malt. Medium, medium heavy mouthfeel. Chewy, rich and worth savoring. There are hopheads in the universe. I am a malt head. Celebrator is one of my all time favorite beers. The taste is sooo good. Back up the truck, stock up the fridge. Drink. Enjoy. Repeat. Frequently repeat because it is worth it.

No bottling date. Served in a Microbrasserie Charlevoix goblet. Pours a deep, barely translucent garnet with just over one finger pale head. The head fades to a thin layer that laces well. Aroma is almost dominated initially by an unfortunate bitter metallic note. Behind that I get some caramel, raisin, faint cocoa and biscuit. The metallic smell slinks further into the background as it warms but doesn't disappear. Luckily the flavor has only a hint of the metallic strangeness from the nose. Chocolate, vanilla, dark fruit, earthy, nutty, hints of cherry, caramel, toffee, slight coffee and a mild floral bitterness. Crazy how complex and layered with flavor this is. Malty and delicious. Creamy medium body with fairly heavy carbonation. Malty aftertaste with cocoa, nuts, toffee and raisins. Outstanding. Not sure what took me so long to try this. I've had several dopplebocks but none have had the balance and complex array of flavor found in this gold standard. This is a must try.

Appears much redder when held up to the light. There is a 1.5 finger off white head which lasts for some time and good lacing. The smell is nutty, roasted and sweet malts. Some vanilla and smokiness as well as a biscuit smell. There is a touch of caramel as well. The taste follows the nose; thick with nuts, roasted and sweet malts. Caramel vanilla and biscuty The feel is thick, bready and chewy. There are some light resinous hop oil in the backend and some of the oil sits on the tongue after swallowing. Overall this is a very good Doppelbock. Thick dark and well balanced with plenty of rich malts which make it taste like a meal in a bottle. This is a very good example of the style.

Calafell :
Calafell , the most northerly resort on the Gold coast is all about the mega beach and the sunbathing /watersports that go with it. The resort is Located only 50km from Barcelona and is easily accessible by train, because of this there are many weekend visitors. Calafell is busy and lively. The architecture beyond the promenade and marina is not particularly attractive and although the promenade stretches out with a good selection of bars and restaurants' the vista in the background is of concrete apartments, many of which now look dated. Calafell is only a short distance from the Aventura Theme Park, one of the largest of its kind in Europe. It offers an exciting day for adults as well as children with some thrilling rides that are not for the faint-hearted. There is no shortage of facilities in the town and the shopping is pretty good but serious shoppers should trek up to Barca for the day. In summary a build up resort thats not too active at night but does host a beautiful safe beach and is a good spot for a quiet family break.

Mozilla Prism Puts the Web on Your Desktop
The Mozilla Foundation has just released Prism, the pre-release version of an application that removes a Web application's reliance on a browser. The software, which was previously only available for Windows, is now available as version 0.8 for Linux and Mac OS X.
The Prism project originally started life as Webrunner. It is a kind of lean Web browser that does without typical browser controls. When launched, Prism prompts the user for the Web address of the application and an intuitive name, and asks whether it should set up a desktop link. If the users says no, the setup dialog just complains, but otherwise Prism launches the selected Web application in a separate window.
Users can extract the start command from the shortcut file on the desktop and integrate the command with the start menu. The command has a syntax of "/ Installation_location/prism/prism -webapp firstname.lastname@example.com". You can enter a command of this kind to the Web application on the local system, possibly entering a username and password for the application.
Just like the future Firefox 3 version, Prism also supports offline use of Web applications. The developers also plan to support 3D graphics hardware and to do away with the installation dialog in the longer term. The aim is to let users drag and drop Web applications from the browser onto the desktop.

San Bernardino (CA) seeks bankruptcy protection
http://www.latimes.com/news/local...6419.stSan Bernardino on Tuesday became the third California city in less than a month to seek bankruptcy protection, with officials saying the financial situation had become so dire that it could not cover payroll through the summer. The unexpected vote came at the suggestion of the interim city manager, who said the city faces a $46-million deficit and depleted coffers. "We have an immediate cash flow issue," Andrea Miller told the mayor and seven-member City Council. Mayor Patrick Morris called the decision, passed on a 4-2 vote, a "stain" on the city. But he said the only other option was "draconian cuts" to all city services, including the police and fire departments. "It means the bills will be paid," said a dejected Morris, who is not a voting member of the council. The city's fiscal crisis has been years in the making, compounded by the nation's crushing recession and exacerbated by escalating pension costs, lucrative labor agreements, Sacramento's raid on redevelopment funds and a city reserve that is tapped out, officials said. Not surprising. California tax and spending with lavish union benefits is collapsing under its own weight. |

And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout;
But there is no joy in Pinball - mighty Harmonix has struck out.
Though I never used them I will be glad when they bump the flame notes back. At least you are still playing the song with flame notes. If I wanted to play pinball I would play one of the numerous pinball games available.
I enjoy playing the music so I stick to more conventional power-up's. I am number 13 on Tuesday's Gone with 847.289 using Jackpot/Blast Notes/Keyboard. Blast notes are mostly useless for this song so it took a near perfect run and a bit of luck with blast note locations. While it is too late after release and no patch in sight, it would have been great to have a Trials Evolution style leaderboard. Even without repaly's just the ability to see what powerups were used by the leaders. I would like to have seen how the 20 or so people who have been able to gold star were able to accomplish it. Especially those like myself who were able to GS the song since the flame notes points were reduced.
BDSooner72 - Top 50 on 360 who has never used flame notes but shamefully used pinball on one and two instrument tracks.

Slow Cooker 8-Can Taco Soup
- Posted on
- 18 Comments
1 (15 oz) can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes, drained
1 (15 oz) can sweet corn, drained
1 (12.5 oz) can chicken breast, drained
1 (10.75 oz) can cream of chicken soup
1 (10 oz) can green enchilada sauce
1 (14 oz) can chicken broth
1 (1 oz) packet taco seasoning
This looks super easy and tasty! I'll definitely have to add that to my list of things to use. And its very similar to our "trash can soup" slow cooker. Basically….just toss in all your leftovers in the fridge, season, heat and you're done.
Had the most AWESOME time at the BYBC yesterday and had so much fun meeting you all. Looking forward to many more fun times in the future, have a great Sunday!
Congrats girlies!
Hello Sisters, It was so fun to meet you at the BYB conference. You did a wonderful job & I had a great time. I have lots of pics on my blog about it!
Warmly, Michelle
Faith, Trust & Pixie Dust
PS – Lauren, next time you're in the USU computer lab, say hello to my son "Jeff" for me {he's the manager there!}. -
Congrats on the cookbook! I put it on my amazon wish list! I am hoping to get it for Mother's Day!
Smart idea with the canned chicken! My Tin Can Taco Soup uses ground turkey/beef & canned chicken would be super easy & delicious! Thanks for the tip! You are so smart Camille
~Amber @ Dessert Now, Dinner Later! -
I'm a sucker for every slow cooker recipe you post!
Has anyone made this without beans? My family bolts if they see any hint of a bean!
Adding a packet of dry ranch dressing seasoning makes this even better!
Sounds wonderful, I cook for a crowd so it will be an easy meal for me…
Making this today! Although I am not a fan of canned chicken I will be using chicken breast. Can wait to try it, it looks delicious
This comment has been removed by the author.
My family has made taco soup for years! The original recipe we received has a can of kidney beans instead of black beans. I do one can of each of kidney, black, and pinto beans. I add hominy, but that wasn't in our original recipe. Our recipe also has one packet of ranch dressing mix and one can of creamed corn (in addition to the regular can of corn). We also didn't add cream of chicken soup, enchilada sauce or chicken broth… We just filled a few of our cans from the beans/corn/etc. with water (to get all the juices and leftovers out!) and added that to the pot. We put about a cup of canned storebought salsa in ours, as well as a small can of diced green chiles. Oh yeah, and we used ground beef!
This was my first time making taco soup – and everyone ate it with relish, getting seconds (and thirds) and discussing how good it was. I have decided that I need to stock the ingredients I don't already have (canned chicken, enchilada sauce and taco seasoning (I have the spices that I could mix, but this was so much easier.) This is a winner recipe. Thanks
My 20 year old daughter is a soup nazi. Been eating soups daily since she is about 7 years old. I made this to bring to my job….but she smelled it and wanted some. " OMG!!! Why isnt this for us?!?! " she screamed. Thank you!!! I love easy and cheap!!!
Does anyone know how much this recipe makes?
Can this be prepared with red enchilada sauce. I make my own and have never done the green. What do you do to cut the bitterness of the tomato? Btw I love all your recipes

Book review of After Tocqueville: The Promise and Failure of Democracy by Chilton Williamson Jr., National Review
March 25, 2013
by John Fonte
Chilton Williamson Jr. has written a historically rich, erudite, and serious critique of what he calls contemporary "democracy" (and what others might label "advanced liberalism"). After Tocqueville is an intellectual-history feast, in which one meets the major thoughtful and humane critics of modern democracy, from Chesterton, Belloc, Maine, and Bagehot to Orestes Brownson, Ortega y Gasset, and Jacques Ellul. Williamson, a novelist felicitous in his use of the English language, is a senior editor at Chronicles and a long-time exemplar of literary conservatism (à la Russell Kirk) as opposed to political conservatism. In the 1970s and 1980s, he was the literary editor of National Review.
The many strands of American conservatism could, at one level, be reduced to two: the Whig optimist and the Tory pessimist. Williamson's book is a classic example of conservative cultural pessimism (with a good dash of determinism) of the type that conservative optimist Arthur Herman decried in his 1997 book The Idea of Decline in Western History.
Like Tocqueville, Williamson characterizes democracy as a "social state," an encompassing cultural and social regime and way of life, not simply a political system. With this in mind, Williamson has, as a primary purpose of this book, to refute Francis Fukuyama's claim that we have arrived at the "end of history" with the ideological triumph of liberal democracy. Drawing on theologian Reinhold Niebuhr's Christian eschatology, Williamson sees Fukuyama's thesis as yet another in the age-old list of efforts by secular-liberal philosophers to depict history as a "redemptive process." This historical progressivism, Williamson rightly suggests, fails to recognize the very real and perennial problem of evil in the world and the different forms that it might take. For Niebuhr (and Williamson), core historical problems are never completely resolved but lead instead to new dilemmas and new evils. The belief that man can resolve his problems through history is the old sin of pride, the sin of Adam.
Williamson is at his best in diagnosing the pathologies of advanced liberalism. From Robespierre through Gramsci to their 21st-century philosophical epigones, the Left has been on a "long march through the institutions." Moreover, this long march "has succeeded, or nearly, in accomplishing what the international revolution of the proletariat failed to do." In this particular analysis Williamson is spot on. I remember that, in the aftermath of the fall of the Berlin Wall, with the worldwide advance of market capitalism and political democracy, and even a Democratic president declaring that "the era of big government is over," many conservatives were triumphantly announcing "We've won."
Yet, at the same time, multiculturalism and political correctness were gaining a stranglehold on America's universities and public schools. The new and much more insidious concept of "diversity" replaced the older view of affirmative action. Whereas affirmative action was theoretically, although not in practice, an attempt to remedy past discrimination, diversity means equality of result for groups as an end in itself, irrespective of past discrimination.
Meanwhile, America's government, legal, academic, and media elites wielded cultural-Marxist tools, artificially dividing ethnic, racial, gender, and linguistic groups into essentially two categories: dominant and marginalized. Any laws that had a negative "disparate impact" on a "protected class" (a "marginalized" group) were ipso facto discriminatory. The goal of New Class elites is to fundamentally transform the United States, culturally, socially, and intellectually as well as politically.
Williamson notes that, across the West, the entire civilizational edifice of mores, manners, customs, institutions, traditions, and beliefs has been under attack and, in large part, has been undermined. This cultural revolution has accomplished what the old Bolsheviks were unable to do. It has greatly weakened Christianity, the family, constitutional law, the idea of the nation-state, authentic patriotism, and genuine self-government.
Williamson argues that this modern democracy is a "false religion." While the liberal project ostensibly favors human rights, in fact it is essentially a means by which the "upper strata of society" attempt to "escape from the authority of religion" while "establishing a secular church to which the lower orders are made subservient."
From the 1920s to the 1960s, Marxism had a strong appeal to the Western intellectuals who promoted the advance of the Left. Since then, multiculturalism has replaced it as the central ideology of the Western intelligentsia. Quoting the prominent philosopher Kenneth Minogue, Williamson points out that while multiculturalism is not necessarily antagonistic to religion per se, it is united with Marxism in a hatred of Christianity specifically.
Williamson — and here he cites sources as diverse as Christopher Caldwell, Oriana Fallaci, Prince Charles, Enoch Powell, and Algeria's President Boumedienne — portrays the democratic nation-states of Europe as unable to respond effectively to large-scale immigration from the non-liberal Muslim East. This is, the author tells us, because the dominance of advanced liberalism has so corrupted the West that it cannot even defend liberal principles and democratic institutions. Instead, Western leaders respond with "platitudinous verbiage" about "migrant rights" and "welcome the stranger" while simultaneously turning legitimate criticisms of immigration policies and Islamic practices into "hate crimes."
A major premise of the book is the Tocquevillian concept that mores (the character of a people) are even more important than a nation's core institutions. In a revealing passage, Williamson writes: "Democracy, to succeed, must be more than self-government. It must be the love of self-government."
But where would this love of self-government come from? Alas, for Williamson there is no way out. In the end, although he enjoys the Western lifestyle in Wyoming and is obviously an "American conservative," there is little he depicts in the American regime (at least as presented in this book) worth conserving or even restoring.
In examining America's history, Williamson portrays a string of flawed ideas and individuals. Paraphrasing Emory philosophy professor Donald Livingston, he muses that "the republic that has been the aim and ideal of the American Founders has been impossible." In The Federalist Papers, Madison and Hamilton "made a serious judgment in error" by advocating a republican regime over too large a territory. But, of course, the Founders did not aim to create a small classical republic. Instead, they explicitly advocated a "new science of politics" that envisioned an extended republic, with representation, federalism, and a compound regime that was both republican (popular) and constitutional (limited).
In Federalist 1, Hamilton stated that the purpose of the Constitution was "to decide" whether societies "are really capable or not of establishing good government from reflection and choice or . . . destined to depend . . . on accident and force." After Tocqueville is saturated with a determinism (the liberal New Class is, we are told, "securely entrenched" and "unassailable") that essentially argues that the Founders' experiment has failed. For the author, Jefferson's "unconstitutional Louisiana purchase" was the "death knell of republicanism"; Jacksonian democracy included "socialist aspects"; and the period of Republican-party dominance from Lincoln to Coolidge was the rule of "plutocracy."
The book is dedicated to "John Lukacs, mentor and dear friend." Not surprisingly, then, Williamson takes a Lukacsian view of the Cold War. The half-century struggle between the United States and the Soviet Union was not primarily a conflict between liberal democracy and Communist totalitarianism, but, in Lukacs's terms, "essentially a classic balance-of-power rivalry." Williamson believes that Reagan's foreign policy, with Jeane Kirkpatrick as the drummer, was too "ideological" and "often aggressive."
Moreover, he says, Reagan gets too much credit for bringing the Soviets to heel ("a great oversimplification"). At the same time, however, Reagan is partially blamed for some of America's post-Reagan foreign policy, because he "inspired" the development of "evangelical democracy" during the three successive presidencies that led to the "conflation of democratist ideology and ultranationalist patriotism." Thus, Americans today are the "First World's most aggressive nationalists."
Williamson states that "the concept of American exceptionalism has always been essentially a pleasant fiction, soothing to a portion of the American public." But the notion of American exceptionalism has always been as much an empirical or descriptive concept as a normative one. Writers as diverse as Tocqueville, Werner Sombart, Louis Hartz, and Seymour Martin Lipset have noted that America has been different from Europe and other advanced nations in important ways. America has never had a hereditary aristocracy, and, partly for this reason, never had a major political party that is explicitly socialist or social-democratic. The World Values Survey consistently reveals that Americans are an empirical outlier, more religious, individualistic, and patriotic than other peoples.
Louis Hartz argued that all of America's major political figures — Washington, Jefferson, Hamilton, Jackson, Calhoun, Lincoln, Wilson, and FDR and his Republican opponents — were neither "conservative" nor "social-democratic" in the European sense, but simply different strains of "Lockean liberal" (whose stance he deplored as an "irrational" combination of Horatio Alger economics and American Legion patriotism).
These criticisms aside, Williamson's tour d'horizon of advanced liberalism is worth the read. Conservative Whigs should grapple with Tory ideas. Policy wonks working for Rubio, Ryan, and Jindal might not find "useful" legislative prescriptions in these pages, but they will gain a greater historical and philosophical understanding of modern and postmodern challenges to American self-government and Western civilization.

I saw this circular bookcase, which looked awesome. I think they used wood planks. I don't know the width but I would like to try and build one of these. Does anyone know how to soften wood to bend it?? and then is there any other kind of preparation I have to do to keep it in a bent shape ?? besides nailing it ??. Thank you for any suggestions! | |||
we saw several techniques on WoodWorks over several shows. easiest is to cut your wood in thin strips, steam-bend it to approximate shape, and then laminate the strips over a form using a vacuum bag clamp system. other times just steaming the wood and forming it was done. this is the technique used in making cedar strip canoes, the steam, bend, and block. sig: if this is a new economy, how come they still want my old-fashioned money? | ||||
Thank you for your response. I will try that..thin strips and steaming them and then clamping them into shape..good idea! Thanks! | ||||
dont forget to make male / female forms to clamp the strips into the curve you want, otherwise each one may differ from another. also, the species of wood will make a difference. some bend easy , others impossible. Straight grain red oak is a good choice, pine sucksThis message has been edited. Last edited by: nona, | ||||
Thank you for the information you gave me. That totally makes sense and red oak would be beautiful. I am now in the designing stage of this but so glad to know about the Male/Female ends..Thank you so much! Maureen | ||||
male an female ends are also referred to as goesinta and goesonta frodo lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1geyoxeifk0&list=TLCjiCHNF4Km-K01r9YCvOX7MfpQ97FJEt | ||||
you know that there is such a thing as bendable plywood, I forgot who carrys it, but a search should point you in the right direction | ||||
hi nona http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1geyoxeifk0&list=TLCjiCHNF4Km-K01r9YCvOX7MfpQ97FJEt | ||||
Nona, No I didn't know. I will start looking for it, that would certaintly make it all easier. Thank you again for the info. Maureen | ||||
Just wondering how the project is going? Please share photos and how the bending process worked out. Thanks, CR Chas Roller | ||||
For projects where lamination is objectionable, or when the wood is to be bent in compound curves, a steam box is the answer. One can be made fairly economically from PVC pipe, but it needs to be supported to keep the pipe from deforming. At Turnkey Decks we are committed to providing both building excellence and value for money for our customers. | ||||

It also has a capacious and practical rucksack/storage basket that can be used as a rucksack on the shoulders.
Ordered this buggy to replace my obaby one! Safe to say this got sent back at the first opportunity! The main fault was something rattling inside the frame when you folded and unfolded it. The next faults were regarding the hood, very flimsy and cheap, nothing to anchor it to on the rear of the seat and the anchor points that it did have were not enough to secure the hood - when you unfolded the buggy the hood was way over the seat. Another fault was with the hood attached to the frame you was unable to hook the carry clip securely so the buggy just kept unfolding when trying to carry it.

Light Disc

Information | |
Type | Weapon |
Sub-Type | Thrown Weapon |

The Light Disc has extended range when wearing Hallowed Armor, or any other armor that grants a Melee Speed boost. When wearing Hallowed Armor, the weapon can be thrown for around fifty blocks.
- Light Discs are not consumed when thrown.
- Only five can be thrown at a time, even when wielding multiple stacks.
- Unless in an open area it is rare to have more than 4 disc's out at one time. Keep this in mind if you don't want to waste extra materials.
- The weapon cannot have prefixes upon crafting, nor can it be reforged.
- When standing right next to any block and the weapon is thrown to the other side of the block, it will go through the block.
- This could be a good strategy to fight The Destroyer since it deals more than 50 damage per second (with more than 1 Light Disc)
- Light Discs may impart some debuffs to the user when thrown against a nearby block too often on a server running in secure mode, due to extra anti-cheat methods used by that mode.
- In the console version, the player will be able to throw multiple Light Discs at once even if they have only crafted one. It is unknown if this is a bug or an intentional change.
- The Light Disc is most likely a reference to the Tron franchise, in which characters battle with deadly "Identity Discs".
- It may also be a reference to the side-scrolling NES platformer game, Shatterhand, where the weapon seen in this video of Shatterhand at around 8 minutes may resemble the Light Disc. As seen in the video, the sprite are comparable, the discs ricochets and you can shoot multiple discs at the same time.
- Sometimes, when the player is standing by a one tile wide wall and throws the light disk, the light disk passes through the wall. This works with Boomerangs and the Magical Harp (1/2 of the time) as well.
- If thrown correctly, it can often pass through blocks in random places.
- When the Light Disc bounces off of a grass covered dirt block it produces particles as if it was boucing off Crimson covered dirt blocks.
Update Info
- Added to the game.

'Turn out in force' plea to York City fans
9:44am Wednesday 16th May 2012 in Sport
YORK City have sold 6,000 tickets for Sunday's Blue Square Bet Premier play-off final against Luton Town at Wembley on Sunday – and manager Gary Mills hopes the club can take as many fans as possible back to London.
Luton sales have passed 27,000 from a total allocation of just over 29,000 and, while acknowledging the difficulties facing some York fans in funding two Wembley trips in a short space of time, Mills said: "It's one of those occasions that doesn't happen very often. It would be great for every single person in York to go down and support us. I understand the reasons they can't.
"I know the thousands who would love to but can't. Let's get as many as we can there. Whoever can get there – thanks very much – whoever can't – thanks as well. Newport took more than us on Saturday but you would have thought we were the ones who had double the support.
"The opportunity, for those who can and those who can't, is to celebrate it on Monday. I am sure everyone will turn out."

Fake IMO.
5 stars for the hawk's Here's My Fucking Lunch post
Napoleon V has done this before
He posted the video of the eagle picking up a baby in a park which was fake
That was the saddest thing I've seen in years. That poor child will be traumatized forever.
The hawk was a pussy for snatching a baby instead of an adult bunny, imho.
Thread of FAKE
Rest in Peace my dear Christine, you will be missed.

I am good with skipping tonight. I think it is more fun to keep us all together. Besides, I am close to finishing Act 3 (I think) and will be happy to do that instead.
Yep, no biggie. I was a bit under the weather anyhow. I'll be back in town next Sunday.

Why do I downvote questions?
In the last time questions of the just do it for me kind came up more and more on this site and I believe that they have only few or no benefit for this site. I decided to deals with it by downvoting questions that only post the desired result without showing any efforts by the OP.
PS: I'd be happy to help with such questions on a more commercial base, but here (where everybody spends his free time) there should be more thankfulness in form of doing at least some googling and reading package documentations before asking something ;-)

Saint Peter's Square
Home Linux/UNIX users?
Disclaimer: Geek post follows. Proceed at your own risk!
Is there anyone out there with relatively recent experience with Linux or UNIX in a home (or small business) environment? I'm looking for suggestions for distributions that are stable, secure and relatively easy for a novice to use more or less out of the box. Actually, I'm fairly comfortable with the basic commands, but I dont''t want to have to spend a lot of time learning the esoterica of package management (what turned me off of Linux about 12 years ago) or manually creating IPSEC configurations and the like.
I'm interested in suggestions for both workstations and small servers on relatively modern hardware (desktop and/or laptop); a relatively lightweight portable (USB thumb drive) installation; and older distributions that may still be available to run on old (8-10 years) hardware (slow CPU, small memory and disks by today's standards). I'm willing to use different distributions for different configurations, if appropriate.
Suggestions for relevant discussion forums are also welcome.
Thanks in advance!
Have you looked at Ubuntu? www.ubuntu.com It gives the choice of using a traditional shell environment or GNOME GUI. I can't speak to Ubuntu's use on a server though although they offer it for servers. Also, you can run it from a USB. Caveat: I have had nothing but problems with it although 99% of everyone else seems to be able to use it fine. It won't play well with certain hardware of mine like an Nvidia card. Ubuntu seems to need more/newer tech specs than other versions--I tried running it on Dell that is about 7 years old. The little bit that I got to play around with it, I really liked it though. The Ubuntu forums are great for info.
There is a lightweight version of Ubuntu that I haven't had the time to check out yet. It's called Lubuntu. lubuntu.net Xubuntu is another lighter version based on the Ubuntu core. xubuntu.org Both of these supposedly work well with older equipment, but I haven't had time to try them out.
Thanks Steve, John, and Andrea. I appreciate the feedback!
I needed to get a Q&D Linux environment up last night and ended up grabbing the Ubuntu 13.04 distribution. I got a 1 TB WD My Passport drive from WalMart for $79, installed it on that, and was off. (Aside: Remember when a 100GB drive was about 5x the size and 2-3x the price? For that matter, I remember when a 100 MB disk pack was about 30x the size and 10x the price; the drive the pack mounted in was the size of a washing machine and well north of $10K! But then the system has a whopping 56KB (yes, *K*!) of memory to support 16 simultaneous timesharing users with 110 baud terminal connections. Those were the days!)
While I have more than enough room on the laptop hard drive to add partitions for Linux and create a separate NTFS data partition that I can mount from either, I've never had good luck partitioning a drive with Windows already installed. If I can find the restore disk for an old laptop I may try on that.
Another possibility I am considering is running Linux in a virtual machine under Windows -- which allows both to run simultaneously. Have you considered this, John? For a desktop Linux system you will need an X emulator. The only one I am familiar with (Reflection X) is not cheap; hopefully there is a decent freeware or inexpensive product out there.
I forgot to mention...
So far I am incredibly impressed with the package management in Ubuntu. When I entered a command (gawk) that wasn't installed, the system found a source for the package, offered to install it, and identified all of the package dependencies. You can't ask for better service than that!
I'm lazy and didn't feel like partitioning my HDD so I used something called Wubi. It works pretty well with XP, although with my new laptop I get a warning message that it's not compatible with 8 yet. It gives you a boot menu when you start up the machine.
Hello, brethren and fellow geeks! For stability, I prefer Debian Linux, the OS upon which Ubuntu, Mint, and a whole host of other Linuxes are built. The Debian team is very conservative with package management, so you rarely see any conflicts of any kind. It has always run rock solid for me. I have used it at home in the past as a firewall and fileserver mostly. I've mostly run headless boxes, although I've heard their installer and GUI is very nice nowadays. Way back when I used to play games, I ran it as an Unreal Tournament server on a Pentium 166 and it never dropped a packet.
In Christ through Mary-
Oh, and FWIW, I switched to Mac OS X about five years ago. Underneath the OS, at the command line, it's basically UNIX. I can still get my geek on there when I choose. I run all of my windows boxes in virtual machines using VMware Fusion. I'm currently running Windows Server 2008 64-bit, Windows 7 64-bit, and Windows XP. I think I'll install Debian 7 today and see how it goes.

What our Guests say
"Nice to be back. Linthwaite House suits us down to the ground. Consistently high standards, especially from the staff at all levels & of course the food! Some dishes were outstanding. Not much appears to change, but that's what we like. A few tweaks here and there provide consistent improvement, but it's all done in a low key manner. Another thoroughly enjoyable experience."
