.EXE removal....
Posted 31 March 2011 - 08:44 AM
Or current thought ( and we're more than happy to change if you provide a better alternative ) is that we'll "mark" the .EXE in some way. Our current thought is that we'll do a TV style logo that's always in the corner, or perhaps a ticker that scrolls along. Something that clearly marks it, but doesn't disable it outright - perhaps even a very faint watermark over the whole screen like Google maps does?
What we're aiming for is to encourage users who will never buy it, to do so. We release that many folk use it for years before buying it and we would like to keep them happy as well. But at the end of the day, it isn't a "free" product, it has to make money for us to be able to continue development and that means trying to get those who never upgrade, to do so. Running from inside the IDE will be unaffected, the .exe it creates will time out as normal, but this allows your to see your game without the "banner" (or whatever)
So, knowing that "something" has to be annoying inside the lite .EXE, what would encourage you to upgrade, but not piss you off and drive you away?
We've also had suggestions of not allowing the icon and loading bar to change, no full screen and changing the title bar. These may well get used as well.
Please be civil. I know this is a contentious issue, and that most of you have pretty strong feelings on the matter. I have read all the previous comments (that I could find), and we do agree that limiting .EXE creation isn't a great solution. We're looking for solutions that will keep most people reasonably happy, but we also understand some will never like it, no matter what. So help us get a better one.
But note. I WILL NOT take any YoYo bashing here. Be nice. Be constructive.

A Game Maker logo in the top-left corner of one's screen when playing a lite game would be a good idea.

But... watermark or room with logo at beginning is also good idea. There can be even a text "This game was created in Game Maker / visit yoyogames.com for more info" under it - similar is in The Games Factory at end if I remember correctly. This will be better that current small image in corner when game is loading.

It's a way of making money from the people who will never upgrade.
Edit: I don't like the idea of time limited exes, and a yoyogames watermark/banner will no longer work.
I used GM for years before it started charging. I never donated when it was asked of me, and I didn't upgrade for a while after it went "pro". All in all, it was years of use, with some pretty long games, before I finally paid for it. I doubt that I would have paid for it at all without that. It's partly because of my age back then, but many GM users these days are around that age or younger.
As for the watermark, they can just upload their game to YoYoGames.com, then download a watermark free version.

Or, when the game transitions to another room after a certain time, transition to an advertisement room instead with the same stuff as above but instead of closing the window goes to the proper room. This does inturrupt gameplay but as its a room transition, it's less likely to screw them up mid-game.
Posted 31 March 2011 - 09:15 AM
Hmm... The watermark sounds good, but I can't see how it'd work, considering that the game window could be as small as 32x32, so it could be a problem.
I like the time limitation idea. As gnysek said, it could be used to drive people into buying the Standard version. But I think that it could be easily bypassed without much efforts.
Not allowing to change icon, splash, loading bar and window caption is a great idea, I think that people could live with that.
I think that a message when starting/closing the game would be okay. Something simple that would require to press an "OK button" to continue. Clicking a button to start the game would be rather annoying, but bearable, so I think it's a fine solution.
Posted 31 March 2011 - 09:19 AM
. There can be even a text "This game was created in Game Maker / visit yoyogames.com for more info" under it - similar is in The Games Factory at end if I remember correctly.
This is onto something - how about a 10 second splash screen or something that shows up when you end a Lite game by pressing escape, saying that "This game was created in Game Maker Lite, visit yoyogames.com for more info. (This screen can be switched off in the Standard and Professional edition of Game Maker)"
As for the TV-style logo, that's good too. To make people a bit more supportive, let there be an option in Preferences: in what corner would you like the logo to show up? This would likely make more people cope with it, since after all they'd get some means of customizing it to suit their game better (for instance, they could put the HUD where they want without worrying about the logo covering it).
Having loading/icon noncustomizable could also work pretty fine. In the GM6 days there was the "Made With Game Maker" window that popped up while the loading bar was loading. Having the actual loading bar image state that this was made with Game Maker Lite could also do the trick.
Or perhaps have EXE info fields (Under the name of an EXE, Description and Company shows up in grayscale when in Icon view) always default to "Game Maker Lite application", instead of being able to be any text the user desires?
Posted 31 March 2011 - 09:26 AM
That's not a bad idea, you don't want the people playing games on the YYG website to have to suffer for the developer not buying Game Maker. This would be perfect, you can either use GM with adverts, limited abilities and the banner when the game is loading. Or you can buy GM and work on a "cleaner" surface. This wouldn't drive developers insane, but at the same time it would "encourage" them to but GM. The only problem with this would be an internet connection, you'd need to be online to see ads.At risk of maybe some negative comments... but what about adding adverts into the Game Maker interface? So the developer sees ads while developing. Maybe something in the bottom left corner, or a panel across the bottom or right.
It's a way of making money from the people who will never upgrade.
@Mike Removing the ability to build .EXE files from the lite version, would see us miss out on some very good games on the YYG website.
@gnysek Watermarks are also a good idea, when you watch TV with a watermark down the bottom (small), you know it's there, but it doesn't bother you.
@LegacyCrono Think about it, all those GM games you download from YYG, with the same boring sphere...
Alright simply, I don't think that any "Light" implementations should effect the end-user, and removing .exe completely would see a loss of many good newbie devs. So I think if you implement somthing that would effect the dev more than the player would be a better solution.

That's true. You could always have some stock ads, included in the program. If you can't get an internet connection, show those. Links to YoYo, maybe a sponsor.The only problem with this would be an internet connection, you'd need to be online to see ads.
Posted 31 March 2011 - 09:36 AM
Posted 31 March 2011 - 09:51 AM
I like the old Ad on exit thing. They're pretty effective, serve the correct purpose, and don't piss the people playing the game off too much. I also think a little "TV" logo combined with some limits (no room size under 256x256?), can't change icon, no full screen, we name the window etc. all sound pretty sensible.
So... currently ( until someone gives an amazing solution ), I'm looking do do this...
We use the GameMaker icon.
You can't go SMALLER that a 256x256 room/window size.
We put a "Make with GameMaker" thing in a corner of the screen (let you pick)
The game "title" is forced to something like "Made with GameMaker Lite - http://blah"
GameMaker advert on exit that stays up for 5-10 seconds. (any preference?)
However... We'll also add ZOOM and draw_self() into the Lite version.
Hows that?
Posted 31 March 2011 - 09:52 AM
If you throw up a watermark; you'll just end up with a heap of games on YYG (and elsewhere) with that watermark. It doesn't incline them to buy GM by that much.
Would it be possible to give the Lite version a slower runner? So, games performed are generally worse anyway. If someone wants to make a good game, they'll almost require purchasing.
I think "Made with Game Maker" would be better.We put a "Make with GameMaker" thing in a corner of the screen (let you pick)

If "translated" to Game Maker, that would mean that user could specify watermark location in global game settings, and loading image would always stay as Game Maker logo with site adress.
Window size limitation sounds fair (though, I can see no reason for not letting user to create smaller rooms - view scaling may be used).
Displaying something in the end of the game would be bad, because that would slow down process of developement & learning the program, thus user will have higher chances to ragequit.
If game "Title" means window title, that is neutral - if there is a watermark in-game already, why would you want another adverstiment in game window? That feels strange.
To say, ZOOM + draw_self() do not seem to be worthy rewards for all future user's problems. Probably many will prefer using GM8.0Lite over new version.
P.S. NAL is not Nal, as he stated not once already.
Edit: What's up with a featured "forum" program on yoyogames homepage, by the way?
Edited by YellowAfterlife, 31 March 2011 - 10:27 AM.
Posted 31 March 2011 - 10:31 AM
- cannot change the control icon, title text, or window size/scale
- the loading screen cannot be changed, only "Made in Game Maker" along with a "click here to make your own games!" button...a minimum 5 seconds required on the loading screen (it is reasonable, it's functional and kills 2 birds with 1 stone)
- watermark in top left corner of main window
- showing the info/F1/whatever screen will have "Made in Game Maker" along with a link to YYG website at the very top, followed by whatever the programmer puts
Having an on-exit Ad sucks, especially during debug testing. But since I think everyone should purchase the product, I agree with the no-exe approach...if people want free software, they can learn the hard languages. Plus, there's always GM 7 lite that you guys can keep active for those who want to "get the feel" for what GM is all about.
Posted 31 March 2011 - 10:40 AM
I don't follow you? Do you mean it's too much, or not enough?To say, ZOOM + draw_self() do not seem to be worthy rewards for all future user's problems. Probably many will prefer using GM8.0Lite over new version.
Yeah... but I can just tell him he smells of cheese and to shut up!P.S. NAL is not Nal, as he stated not once already.
Sorry if I wasn't clear.
While developing, if you RUN/DEBUG (F5 or F6) the game from inside the IDE, it WILL NOT have these limitations. You'll see your game as normal. This means you will get quick turn around on coding because I agree that a nag screen on exit for dev is crap. The .EXE that's created while doing this, will "timeout" as it currently does.
But when you MAKE AN EXE, the time limit is removed, and the nag screen and TV watermark is added.
I'm in total agreement that "dev" should be as smooth as possible.
Posted 31 March 2011 - 10:58 AM
I think ads, also, would be more work for no return of note. At least not in any of the PC-centric formats we've got right now. I suspect that there's a point where they could be made to work but I also imagine you don't want to throw that time up the wall on a longshot.
The plan-at-the-moment though sounds super and easily adjustable if you need to increment/amend/work around for future revisions. Which I suspect may be a win all round.
Posted 31 March 2011 - 11:04 AM
I also feel that you should get rid of 8.0/7.0 pro versions, and only have 1 type of upgrade, to standard. It's YYG product, it's a good product, act like it...sell it proper. The lite users will keep trying to take and take and take all they can for free. They'll follow new versions as they come out, YYG should stop feeding them, 8.0 should be the end of the line! No more should you put up with that crap, tell them "that's it, stay in 8.0 all you want but we draw the line here, now." You (Mike, Rus, and the rest) have worked far too hard to see these leaches give you no pennies, no food on the table!
Stand up! Be proud! Be a company!! Charge for standard and give no quarter for the pinchers!!!
edit: The other reason I feel this way is, if you get rid of or enforce rules upon the exe itself on a "lite" version while maintaining a "standard" one as well, you'll just open up a side business with people who are willing to build full version executables for those who do not own full versions. This is a company loss waiting to happen...please don't just overlook this problem. If you have only 1 version of the software, then you eliminate this problem, the only thing they "might" be able to do is use earlier versions and have to convert up (which will eventually become incompatible, they'll have no choice but to purchase).
Edited by sabriath, 31 March 2011 - 11:10 AM.
Posted 31 March 2011 - 11:08 AM
btw for all options: add some kind of choice. A choice often makes people happy (even if it's silly, like being able to choose whether you show the add BEFORE or AFTER the game played)

Georgia`s Parliamentary Elections and Prison crisis
by Anonyme - 27/09/2012 - 16:02
I ama a Georgian and i am proud to be a citizen of this tiny country who struggles to survive. I am mad and angry what i saw happened in the prison of Georgia but i need to be rationale once i come to the pool. I see that we are on the crossroad of past and future; russian interest in the region is tooo high and Russia's desire to retake my country and bring Georgia under their influence is to strong. We have elections on monday and this is very crusial elections. We must choose between the ideologies - we want EU integrationa and Western Society or we want to be a part of modernize but still soviet type small republic governed by big brother-Russia - te second option does not exest for me and it is very sceary. Thus i want to see continuity of democratic reforms, integration of EU society. I believe this is all about. And we need the strong support of Western society. Thank you

AS climate experts firm up their view that human activity is seriously altering the atmosphere, one voice stands out in clarion dissent. It is that of Dr. Richard S. Lindzen of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, a shoemaker's son from the Bronx who has risen through the academic hierarchy as a leading expert on the physical processes of the atmosphere.
Is there truly cause to worry that emissions of waste industrial gases that trap heat like carbon dioxide could disrupt the world's climate?
Dr. Lindzen does not equivocate. "We don't have any evidence that this is a serious problem," he says flatly, with precise diction, in a friendly voice that resonates strongly in his 17th-floor office overlooking Boston across the Charles River. A clutter of folders and papers, coupled with Dr. Lindzen's untrimmed black beard and hornrim glasses, suggest the academic theorist he is.
His opinions attacking the formal consensus about climate change have made the 56-year-old Dr. Lindzen a bete noir to environmentalists who trumpet the dangers of global warming and a champion to political conservatives and industrial interests who minimize the threat. Admirers see him as a force for intellectual honesty in a highly politicized debate. Critics fault him for professing unwarranted sureness in a field of research rife with uncertainty. Many say he is simply wrong.

Hi everyone and welcome to today's post. This is an image I have affectionately named "King of the Hill". It is a rather large pedestal of Navajo Sandstone perched on top of layer upon layer of serrated and swirling stone. To be honest this was a disappointing day. I was scheduled to make a trip into Canyon X but a massive front several states away brought clouds and flat, contrasty light. Not exactly the kind of conditions suitable for slot canyon photography. So with the Canyon X trip cancelled, and determined to shoot something, I wondered out into some slick rock areas near Glen Canyon. I do not like to shoot in desperation as it usually leads to uninspiring images and frustration. But here I was anyway. At the very least this would be a scouting trip for a future trip. I wandered for hours up, down, and through an amazing landscape of sharp-edged stone. They were like giant red layer cakes rising upward through a series of dimensional swirls culminating in a large rock "cupcake" with a cookie on top. But the light was just horrible – flat, contrasty, and featureless. Light brings form, shape, and definition. With it we can separate the elements of an image and bring it to life.
But even without the light I knew there was a shot here in this garden of stone. In conditions like this black and white can save the day. To begin to see the possibilities I set my cameras display setting to black and white. Immediately the possibilities began to surface. The flat red color and grey sky became more cohesive and interesting in black and white. And with a little Lightroom and Photoshop work I knew I could bring out the drama and detail in the stone. I also had to be a little patient with my subject. At time during the day a hint of form would appear in the featureless grey sky. For this shot I waited almost 45 minutes for a band of clouds to form over this formation. Waiting for just the right moment I was able to not only capture some interest in the sky but to also use this to frame around the sandstone pedestal. All day I played this "cat and mouse" game with vary degrees of success. With this image everything fell in to place and I was able to bring home a winner.
Technical Details: This image was shot with a Nikon D3x and a Nikkor 17-35mm lens at 24mm. The image was exposed at ISO 100 at f13 for 30 seconds. Even though I had my screen display set to Black and White the RAW captured all the color data. I experimented with the RAW processing to bring out as much color detail so I could make the B+W conversion in Photoshop. For the final however I made the conversion in Lightroom using the Color Mode Sliders. I have found I have a great deal of control with these sliders and can produce an excellent file for final work in Photoshop.
My workflow in Photoshop followed my typical pattern with one exception. I began, as usual, with "digital gardening" on a filter layer to clean up a few dust spots and applying my Smart Sharpen layer to bring up the micro-contrast of the file. The RAW file brought from Lightroom, though solid, still needed some punch. To do this I "Merged Visible" to create a new Image Layer. Note that here that I could also have flattened the file but I almost never do this as I might want to make some adjustment to the Sharpening and I need the Layer Stacks intact for this. With the new Image Layer active I changed the Blending Mode to Soft Light. You could also use Multiply Mode but this usually requires reducing the opacity of the effect. With Soft Light I find I get a nice punch to the file by increasing the density of the pixels. It is a great technique in certain circumstances to add depth to the file. From here it followed my usual Layers including White and Black Point, several Contrast/Curve Adjustments through Luminosity Masks and extensive dodging and burning. Dodging and burning is where I paint with light and manipulate the highlights and shadows to add visual dimension to the file. Using a combination of the Brush Tool and D+B Tools I work light and dark values at low opacities along edges and flat areas to separate tones and emphasize light and shadow.

Became interested in a performing career at age 12 after parents' separation |
Born on Nov. 25, 1968 in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada to parents John and Maxine, Jillian Noel Hennessy moved frequently as a child, due to the nature of her father's job as a meat salesman and marketing executive. In 1982, Hennessy's mother abruptly left the family, requesting not to have contact with her husband or children ever again, prompting her grandmother to step in and assist in the rearing of Jill and her two siblings. It was around this time when the future actress began looking to performance as a vocation. In her teens, Hennessy performed with a local Canadian improvisational troupe before moving to the city of Toronto at the age of 18. There she supported herself as a bartender, waitress and street performer, employing her natural gifts as a singer and learning to play guitar. Looking for acting opportunities, Hennessey and her twin sister, Jacqueline, made their film debut as twin prostitutes in director David Cronenberg's psycho-sexual thriller "Dead Ringers" (1988), which, like many of Cronenberg's films, was shot in Toronto. After a series of small spots in various Canadian-produced television series, Hennessey auditioned for a role in a high-profile musical theater production on a whim. Due to a combination of her musicality, onstage presence, and the fact that she spoke Spanish, the young performer was cast as Marie Elena, wife of the rockabilly icon in "Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story," thus leading to her Broadway debut and relocation to New York City.
By the time the run of "Buddy" had ended, Hennessy had joined a band named The New Originals, with whom she played at many New York clubs. She reluctantly bid goodbye to her band mates, however, when she landed the prestigious role of Assistant D.A. Claire Kincaid, opposite veteran actor Sam Waterston, on the long-running police/courtroom procedural "Law & Order" (NBC, 1990-2010) in 1993. The show had been running for several seasons, and while personnel changes were nothing new for the series, it would take an actor with true gravitas to join the established cast without being overshadowed. Fortunately, Hennessy's coolly confident manner and natural ability meshed well with her more experienced co-stars. That same year, she appeared in her first prominent role in a feature film with the cheaply-produced sci-fi/action sequel "Robocop 3" (1993), starring as a robotics expert who helps out the mechanized hero. Hennessy found herself in markedly better company, surrounded by an exceptionally respectable ensemble cast in Ron Howard's paean to the newshound films of yore, "The Paper" (1994), playing the feisty daughter of a newspaper editor-in chief (Robert Duvall). She also had a brief turn as a reporter in the critically lauded independent biopic "I Shot Andy Warhol" (1996), starring Lily Taylor as the woman who pulled the trigger and Jared Harris as the King of Pop Art.
After three seasons playing a buttoned-down lawyer on "Law & Order," Hennessy asked to leave the series in 1996 in order to pursue more work in feature films. Her first effort was in the thankless role of a woman with designs on Lauren Holly's husband (Greg Kinnear) in the tepid romantic-comedy "A Smile Like Yours" (1997). Hennessy followed up in the fall of that year with Keenan Ivory Wayans' hokey action film "Most Wanted" (1997). After a short run of direct-to-video projects like the crime thriller "Dead Broke" (1998), Hennessy took a supporting role in the barely-seen drama "Molly" (1999), as a doctor who performs a radical - and initially successful - treatment on a severely autistic woman (Elisabeth Shue). Next, she joined the cast of the indie dramedy "Chutney Popcorn" (2000), as the distressed girlfriend of an Indian-American lesbian woman who decides become a surrogate mother for her sister. The actress returned to TV as a lawyer, this time assisting in the prosecution of Nazi war criminals in the acclaimed basic cable miniseries "Nuremberg" (TNT, 2000), co-starring Alec Baldwin and Christopher Plummer. Hennessy next portrayed First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy in the miniseries "Jackie, Ethel, Joan: The Women of Camelot" (NBC, 2001) and was seen on the big screen as a tough lady cop in the hyperkinetic Steven Seagal actioner "Exit Wounds" (2001).
In the fall, Hennessy returned to the weekly series grind, this time headlining her own series in the forensic drama "Crossing Jordan" (NBC, 2001-07). Cast as a feisty, unconventional medical examiner who returns to her hometown of Boston, MA, Hennessy's Jordan Cavannaugh was a dedicated, if impetuous, professional who often went beyond the call of duty in her efforts to uncover the truth. Working well with a veteran cast that included Ken Howard as her father and Miguel Ferrer as her boss, the actress had a chance to create a complex, intelligent female character who audiences embraced, keeping the show afloat for a number of years. Although committed to the small screen, Hennessy still managed to seek out intriguing feature roles, as well. She co-starred in "Love in the Time of Money" (2002), an uneven romantic comedy set during the Nasdaq boom of the late 1990s. Back on television, Hennessy and the "Crossing Jordan" crew were enlisted for several cross-over appearances on the glitzy drama "Las Vegas" (NBC, 2003-08), starring James Caan and Josh Duhamel.
Even as "Crossing Jordan" was coming to an end, Hennessy gained wider exposure in "Wild Hogs" (2007), an insipid - yet astonishingly successful - comedy about four middle-aged buddies (John Travolta, Tim Allen, Martin Lawrence and William H. Macy), each going through their own mid-life crisis, who decide to embark on a cross-country motorcycle trip to prove their collective manhood. In another thankless role, Hennessy played the devoted wife of Allen, a dentist trying to look cool for his son. The actress followed with a more fleshed out portrayal in the independent film "Lymelife" (2008). In the dysfunctional family drama set in late-1970s Long Island, Hennessy played the frustrated wife of a philandering husband (Alec Baldwin), and mother of a teenager (Rory Culkin) simultaneously dealing with his own emerging sexuality and the disintegration of his parents' marriage. In a return to her musical roots, the actress-singer-songwriter fulfilled a life-long dream when she released her first full-length CD "Ghost in My Head" in 2009, making several live concert appearances in support of the album with such acts as The Indigo Girls.

Mouse usage in Emacs by default is different than it is in other applications, and it can be confusing for an EmacsNewbie.
You can use the mouse as usual:
(left mouse button) and drag to define the selection ("region").'mouse-2'
(center mouse button, or left and right buttons together, if you have no center button) to paste.'mouse-3'
(right mouse button) to extend the selection or pop up a context-appropriate menu, depending on the current buffer.Check the EmacsManual to learn about additional available mouse actions. In particular:
twice in the same spot to cut ("kill") the selection.'M-'
) during mouse actions. For example, 'M-'
while dragging creates and extends the secondary selection; 'M-mouse-2'
(that is, click 'mouse-2'
with Meta pressed) to paste the secondary selection.See KeySequence and Region for more about mouse actions.
The TextCursor (not the MousePointer) defines the position of Point, which is one end of the Region. The other end is the Mark. The mark is invisible; point is indicated by the cursor.
You can set point by clicking 'mouse-1'
or using the arrow keys. You can set the mark in any of these ways:
(point stays where it was)'mouse-1'
(old point becomes the mark)'mouse-3'
(becomes the point; old point becomes the mark)If you define the region without using the mouse, it may be invisible; you can make it visible via 'C-x C-x'
, which also swaps the point and the mark.

Newsroom/Press Releases/
Fifteen reasons why Thuli must probe Mdluli
Dianne Kohler Barnard, Shadow Minister of Police
23 April 2012
Public Protector Adv Thuli Madonsela has indicated that tomorrow her office will announce her decision on whether or not to investigate Richard Mdluli and the on-going crime intelligence saga.
This follows the request by the Democratic Alliance (DA) and her confirmation of a preliminary investigation earlier this month (see letter).
There are at least fifteen reasons why we believe that an investigation by the Public Protector is warranted. These include allegations of the following:
- Seven of Mdluli's family members were registered as secret agents in crime intelligence less than a year after his appointment to the job in 2009;
- Mdluli's family members were supplied with luxury vehicles purchased for more than R47 million over the past five years by a crime intelligence front company;
- Some of these vehicles were illegally registered in the name of Mdluli's wife;
- Mdluli allegedly used crime intelligence vehicles that he was not entitled to;
- A crime intelligence whistle-blower was abducted by other crime intelligence operatives;
- A "prominent person" from KwaZulu-Natal was allegedly placed in crime intelligence to influence suspended police boss Bheki Cele;
- Mdluli "abused" a travel agent in Durban, with him and his family travelling more than 50 times on the state's cost;
- Various safe houses were rented by the police for the sole use of Mdluli and his family;
- Two journalists were allegedly paid – one R100 000 to write a positive story about the police and the other R50 000 not to publish a story about a senior cop; and
- Evidence was uncovered from which it appears that crime intelligence "sought to influence political processes in KwaZulu-Natal through the deployment of a select few covert intelligence fieldworkers" in the province. This included "buying influence and access";
- Mdluli's seven family members, who are secret agents, apparently do little at crime intelligence and in the 18 months since their appointment in 2010 they had cost the state more than R5 million in salaries and other expenses;
- According to the City Press, the Hawks were investigating claims that almost R200 000 was paid from the crime intelligence slush fund for renovations to Police Minister Mthethwa's private residence in KwaZulu-Natal.
- Minister Mthethwa also allegedly used a luxury Mercedes-Benz SUV, bought by crime intelligence, for a period of 15 months.
- Questions have been raised with regard to Minister Mthethwa's alleged improper involvement in having the Hawks investigation into Crime Intelligence Head Richard Mdluli and its finance head Solly Lazarus terminated and their suspensions lifted.
- This is in addition to unanswered questions about allegations of murder, kidnapping, assault and intimidation hanging over Mdluli's head.
In terms of section 6(4) of the Public Protector Act, the Public Protector is empowered to investigate improper advantage, abuse or unjustifiable exercise of power or unfair, capricious or other improper conduct or undue delay by a person performing a public function.
The Public Protector has the power to lift the cloak of secrecy over the crime intelligence slush fund and expose the involvement of key police officers and politicians. It is imperative that transparency and accountability prevail.

Can you apply OS 7 to 9800?
Can you apply OS 188.8.131.529 from WIND Mobile to 9800?
No OS 6 phone can run OS 7. There are major hardware differences which currently makes this impossible. There are hybrid builds which use some of the codes of OS 7, but they will not give you a true OS 7 experience.
There is no backward compatibility between OS 6 and OS 7 phones.Blackjack 2, Jack, Torch 9800, 9810, STL 100-3 Z10, 10.2.0.1371, .1443, .1725, .1767, .1791, .1803; 10.2.1.1055!
Blackberry Playbook 32gb - 10-01-2012, 10:42 AM #6
I for one wish RIM would not then in the Desktop Manager present the upgrade option as I think that muddies the water. I had an awful time with my Curve (OS5) and saw the upgrade to 6 option. I was presented the option to go to 7 when I was syncing my 9810 this weekend and waited until I had time to see if yes I could.
Can you apply OS 7 to 9800?
Umm, the last time I looked the 9810 shipped with OS7, so you're seeing a notice of an upgrade to the newest version. So there is nothing wrong with what is showing in your DM.
The OP wanted to know about putting OS7 on the OS6 based 9800.

For many families in Ireland this Christmas, there will be an empty space at the dinner table over the holiday season. In the first four months of 2012, a total of 46,500 Irish people emigrated, according to the CSO.
Many of those who have left Ireland for opportunities abroad long for a taste of home especially around the holiday season, which has resulted for in an increase in sales for some Irish companies.

"It's been a bit of a silver lining for us," Lulu O'Sullivan, CEO of Gifts Direct.com told RTE's Morning Ireland.
"This year our exports on the hampers will be up 26 percent on last year," said the Irish business owner.
The Irish company has been shipping goods abroad for over 15 years. The most popular destinations are the US and Australia.
Read More: The absolutely perfect recipe for Irish coffee
After doing a straw poll among staff here in our NYC office, here is a rundown of some of the most popular requests from Irish people living abroad.
1. Teabags – There is nothing like a strong cup of Irish tea. Whether it's Lyons or Barry's, a few tea bags will never go astray over the holidays.
2. Rashers & Sausages – Longing for the smell of cooking Irish rashers? A full Irish breakfast is the perfect meal to remind you of home comforts.
3. Brown bread – A good wholesome slice of brown bread, smothered in Irish butter! Brown bread mix is also the perfect way to create an Irish favorite in your own home.
4. Tayto Crisps– Despite there being hundreds of chips (we call them crisps in Ireland), nothing beats a bag of cheese and onion.
5. Roses Chocolates – In Ireland, it's hard to find a Christmas tree that doesn't have a tin of Roses underneath it. So it's no surprise they are a favorite abroad too.
6. Irish butter – The Irish bread is nothing without some home grown butter!
7. Jacob's Chocolate Kimberley's - Food Ireland describes them as the 'Best Selling Tinned Cookie in Ireland' Soft biscuits filled with white mallow and covered with milk Chocolate, they will get a quick death!
8. Sliced Pan – A good sliced pan of local bread is a great companion for a full Irish breakfast.
9. Spaghetti hoops - Spaghetti hoops in tomato sauce – perfect comfort food! While these are actually a British export, they remain popular among ex-pats.
10. Lily O' Briens Chocolates – The brainchild of mother Mary Ann O'Brien, these Irish chocolates serve as the perfect treat over the holidays.
147,467 people from all over the world emigrated to Ireland in 2012, plus 77,000 babies born in Ireland in 2012, thousands to foreign nationals. The countries population is rising. 25,000 Irish nationals that went to Australia on a 1 year visa a due back in 2013. Id say in 2013 Ireland will bounce back like they always do. The economy is already showing very positive signs
The 46,500 apparently does NOT include emigrants from north of the Border who left Ireland during 2012. The total number who emigrated from the whole country is probably from 50,000 t0 60,000. Anyone who ever emigrated from Ireland had to experience Christmases away from home, mostly in his/her late teens or early 20s. Nearly all of us who grew up in Ireland like most of the Irish food items listed above, includinh #3, brown bread(Irish soda bread?). My wife, a New England Methosist, does a great job in baking cakes of that delicious bread.

2010 Future Curators
Thirteen exemplary students participated in the 2010 Future Curators program: Chris Borschel (Alden), Nhan Bui (Cheektowaga), Marisa Chilberg (Lewiston-Porter), Alexandra Korchynski (Nardin), Daniel Kunkel (Tapestry), Mondéa Moss (Mt. St. Mary's), Evan Murphy (East Aurora), Kaoru Otani (City Honors), Joseph Polino (Canisius), Neil Savoy (St. Joseph's Collegiate Institute), Danielle Shatkin (Williamsville South), Sarah Stoklosa (Buffalo Seminary), and Patrick White (St. Joseph's Collegiate Institute).
Their exhibition Spectrum: Daydreams of Reality was on view at the Gallery from May 21 to July 3, 2010. Read the Curatorial Statement
The Future Curators also planned a series of events to coincide with the exhibition opening on May 21, 2010. The events took place as part of the Gusto at the Gallery series. Read about the Exhibition Opening
Spectrum: Daydreams of Reality
A spectrum displays an assortment of colors, expressive of ideas, imaginations, and emotions. Within a spectrum, every contrast and combination can be seen. Our Spectrum personifies the mass array of ideas that linger within the individual. Our minds, like those of the artists included in this exhibition, work as prisms; they capture reality and reflect it as something beautiful and new. Each individual work stands alone, as colors do every day. They may differ in media or subject matter—depicting reality in great detail or surreal abstractions—but when they come together as a whole, they create one collective body of work, one spectrum.
And what of daydreams of reality? Daydreams might be considered the opposite of reality, but, in truth, daydreams and reality exist uniquely in harmony. Our daydreams reflect the reality of our lives; they take mundane situations like work and turn them into fantastical scenarios. Thoughts and ideas become real: An author can take images of a nonexistent world and create heroic tales. A composer must first imagine what a song sounds like before it can be played. An artist envisions an image in his or her mind before the click of a camera or the stroke of a paintbrush. Spectrum is the result of those daydreams turning into reality.
– Neil Savoy and Marisa Chilberg

BILLINGS-It was red carpet treatment Monday morning for 18-year-old Jon Michael Northington of Mississippi. Thanks to the Make a Wish Foundation, Jon Michael traveled to Billings to fulfill his wish of shopping at Cabelas. "Me and daddy rode motorcycles in Sturgis South Dakota July 28th. And I love it out west. This was kind of one of the first things I was looking at on the map and it just kind of popped in my head, so I chose it."
With his mom, dad, sister and best friend by his side, Jon Michael had 6 hours to stock up on nearly $2,000 in merchandise. "The first thing he went to was the duck calls and the goose call counter. So they spent some time over there quacking and having fun," said Cabela's Retail Marketing Manager Cody Cass.
Jon Michael appears to be healthy but it was just over a year ago he was diagnosed with a rare form of brain cancer. So rare, he is one of four people in the nation to have this type of cancer. "He's been through a really rough year," said Jon Michael's mother Debra. "And for you all to take the time to do this has just been pretty emotional for us."
After undergoing brain surgery and receiving a year's worth of chemo therapy within four months, Jon Michael constantly visits the doctor to make sure the cancer doesn't come back. His mother says the greatest reward was seeing her son's wish come true. "That's what it's all about," Debra said with tears in her eyes. "I mean, this whole trip was just...For him to see, life come back in his face, it was just, it was great."
Jon Michael's day wasn't only about shopping, he also took part in one of Cabela's main attractions- feeding the fish. "Knowing we were able to really identify his true wish and you can tell that," said Make a Wish State Manager Heather Ohs. "Mom's smiling, Jon Michael is smiling, everyone here is really enjoying themselves, so we feel it's a wish come true."
Jon Michael also wanted to make sure he gave back. So this past July, when he took a motorcycle trip with his father to Sturgis South Dakota. They raised a penny for every mile traveled and then were able to donate more than $16,000 to the Saint Jude Children's Research Hospital.
