Scarpetta Los Angeles
Online Reservations
Always enjoyed at Scarpetta. I just wish their main entrees has bigger portions & that they'll have kid's menu.
We came here for the DineLA menu but added a few dishes to our meal. Overall the food was good however, the overall quality and taste of the food at Scarpetta in Miami was better. Mary's Chicken here in LA was drenched in a sauce that overwhelmed the dish, and was very different from the Mary's Chicken that I experienced before. The chicken and ribeye were dry as well. The summer vegetable soup with tuna tartare was absolutely incredible, and the spaghetti was delicious.
I would be more imaginitive with my title, but honestly the octopus was great. It was so tender! It was super busy that night but we had reservations and were seated right away. However the service was slow and we were not attended by a waiter as much as you would expect for this caliber of dining. Our waiter did acknowledge and apologise on his own for the unintended slight. Of course the spaghetti was a must, and they do have an awesome bread basket. I had a vanilla panna cotta for dessert and it was so yummy! I wish I had filled up entirely on carbs!
Our reservation was for 8:15 pm and we got seated it was almost 9 pm. We waited for over 35 minutes and there was never any apology from the hostess. She even pretended that someone else had talked and informed us about the wait. When we were ready to order, we were told that they were out of the scallops on the Dine LA menu. It was unacceptable since It was only the 2nd day of Dine LA and they are out of an item. We would assume a restaurant of this caliber to be well stocked and ready to serve the crowd that would come and order from the special menu. On a better note, the busboy is very nice deserves special recognition for bringing us a separate vegetarian bread basket after we had mentioned that one of us do not eat pork.
We had the opportunity to enjoy this restaurant during the dineLA experience. Their food from appetizers to desserts were amazingly delicious. My favorite part was their entree, I had the Veal & Bone Marrow Agnolotti. The portion was perfect, flavorful, mouthwatering and buttery. The dessert was the Vanilla Panna Cotta with a berrysorbet; love the contrast between the sweetness of the panna cotta w/ the tartness of the sorbet (perfect pair). Notice that they have a very elegant bar area, private dining room, and also a wall of glass windows where you can see the kitchen from the outside. There were also seatings in the kitchen area; seems like a great opportunity to enjoy the chef experience too.
my niece and I dined on the dineLA menu. The bread basket had 4 different types of bread, including stromboli, and it was all fresh. We had the grilled peach & ricotta salata salad, roasted sea scallops, veal & bone marrow agnolotti, grilled octopus, we split a plate of the wonderful spaghetti whose noodles were oh so perfect and then vanilla panna cotta with cherries and olive oil cake for dessert. I also had the Reserva wine flight which was spot on. The service was perfect even if the over the shoulder service was a bit disconcerting at first. We were seated at a booth and to serve us from the front of the table was much too far to reach so they served over our shoulders from the back of the banquet. Will definitely go back.
You know everyone will enjoy the food, and that's the basis. Service is excellent, attentive and specific. Italians will enjoy, as the menu has the kind of twists to food that someone who remembers their infallible Italian grandmother's dishes will appreciate. And spring for a side of the pasta. It's what they are known for, they do very well, and you won't regret.
I had high hopes for my dining experience at Scarpetta and it was everything I expected and much more. I was delighted by the food, the service, the knowledgeable staff, and we were lucky enough to be there on a Thursday night in the summer when live music is present. Fabulous!
Came on a Friday to enjoy a date night. Located in a the beautiful Montage Hotel. Everyone was so nice. We were greeted by the Dir of F&B in the lobby and escorted us, could of just pointed, but no he walked us. Service was spot on. Kyle took care of us. We did some DineLA items and some regular items. Love most all. Fav was Octopus, Turbot, and Kale Ravioli. Italian Manager made us feel at home, he came by to check on us. We are no one special but it made us feel that way. Desserts were great olive cake and gluten free dessert were our favorites. Before we left we decided to have a cocktail. It turned in to 4 (thanks to Über for the lift). Met another great couple and time flew by. We want to go back soon. What an experience.
This place was very nice and in a great location. Dinner was good the portions of food we got was satisfying. The dessert was the highlight of the night!
Outstanding food and service, incredible ambience on the outdoor patio and it adds up to an extraordinary dining experience. The food is fantastic, from the appetizers to the pastas to the meat and fish. The service is top notch. The restaurant is beautiful. Highly recommended.
This was our first time dining at one of Scott's (yes first name basis) Restaurants. From the moment we were sat everything was amazing. Mo was an excellent server that explained the menu in depth and made excellent recommendations. The yellowtail and polenta were a great way to start followed by the amazing spaghetti and kale with ricotta ravioli was out of this world! I cant wait be back in LA to try the rest of the menu, Scott is amazing!
LOVED everything I ate except for their Olive Cake desser (too sweet and just not yummy). The octupus was suberbly cooked, their peach salad was exectuted perfectly and their bread platter - could not stop eating! Now the pastas - Scott does not disappoint, a must if you want outstanding Italian food. Great wine selection and recommendations.
Ambiance and Food were amazing. Good for a special occasion as it's pretty pricey. Service needs a kick in the pants, disappointed with our server, not the friendliest and did nothing to earn a tip...we blew it off and had a great time for my Bday dinner but for what you're paying for you'd think the service would be top notch. Desserts were absolutely amazing!!!!!
Second time in and perfect again. Started with the braised short ribs - falls apart and very flavorful and went with the spaghetti for dinner. Service was awesome. All around a great find and no food complaints in 2 visits. Only thing I really don't like is the music. Its thumping club music that doesn't fit in with the atmosphere. Every so often they pepper in some classical, which makes it even more strange.
We chose Scarpetta because of Chef Scott Conant; we had been wanting to try one of his restaurants. All of our food and drinks were outstanding -- appetizers, pasta, and desserts. The seasonal mushrooms were a particular favorite, as was the goat cheese chiffon for dessert. Pasta, of course, was perfect. The vibe of the restaurant was energetic and comfortable. The only thing that disturbed the ambiance was the table behind us, who were documenting every moment of their meal with flash photos. Thankfully, we were near the end of our meal when the flashbulbs started. Our waiter was also terrific! Service overall was really great. We had a wonderful dining experience and can't wait to go back.
The restaurant is beautiful, naturally lit while still elegant, and so inviting. The hostesses and servers were all incredibly friendly and the food was SO GOOD. We ordered the scallop appetizer, spaghetti, and the bone marrow and veal agnolotti. Everything was delicious and completely worth the price. Not to mention the bread basket and spreads which made the meal that much better. I am definitely planning on going back to Scarpetta in the near future!
We had a great dinner. Service was good, food was good, it was just a great dinner. Only negative was the fact that the pasta machine was down so they were limited in the variety of pastas they could offer, but not a huge deal.
Excellent food, great service and ambience. Terrific Manager in Sandro.
Lamb angolotti is one of the best things I've ever eaten.
Beautiful setting, attentive and welcoming staff, and delectable food. You won't notice the stars because you will be enraptured by the food. Defy logic and accept that the spaghetti simply is the best. Stromboli bread deserves some sort of award.
This was our second time having dinner here and we enjoyed it more the second visit. The service was much better, the Octopus appetizer was amazing as was the Spaghetti. You must try the Budino and Panna Cotta for dessert.
Second time dining here, and Scarpetta did not disappoint. Food: excellent handmade pasta, quality you can taste! Spaghetti is still the best! Black cod was excellent. All appetizers we got were of the freshest ingredients: truffle polenta, burrata and short ribs were heavenly. Desserts were decadent:caramel budino delish! Service: unpretentious, efficient and gracious. Ambience: clean, modern and sleek. Not truly remarkable but nice to look out at the courtyard on a pleasant summer evening. Not very romantic but still far enough away from other diners to have private conversation.
We had a great birthday dinner at the counter on a slow night - Monday's the head chef is gone and it was a holiday weekend, so the rush was over. It meant some of the kitchen staff paid us close attention, so that was nice. Great space, interesting kitchen experience - different than others because much larger/more spacious and stations. And of course delicious food!
We went with a blackboard eats deal and had a pre-fix menu with wine pairings. The food from beginning to end was great. The wine pairings were fantastic and a really lovely time. The staff was friendly attentive and super nice to us the whole time. A fantastic dinner!
Scarpetta's is an excellent restaurant. The food is top tier epicurean, the fabulous wine list is sectioned by regions within the countries, the service from the moment we stepped through the door was warm & courteous. We opted for a patio table & thoroughly enjoyed a wonderful evening. Scarpetta's is the real star at this end of Beverly Hills' famed "restaurant row". I would highly recommend the lavender honey glazed duck!
Took my daughter and her boyfriend to Scarpetta for her birthday and sat at the chef's counter, which is actually IN the kitchen. First of all, the kitchen is gorgeous - all white granite, white glass front cabinets, glass door refrigerator that's spotless and incredibly well organized. If you're into food and cooking, as we are, it's a very cool experience. The food is delicious and beautifully prepared. We will definitely go back.
They have a great Happy Hour that lasts until 8pm! And everything is $8 at the most (wine and beer is even cheaper!). The food was amazing on the Happy Hour menu, especially the burratta cheese dish and the mussels! Very good and we will be back for happy hour soon!
We went here for a special menu from a foodie web site. The food was absolutely outstanding--a salad of seasonal ingredients delicately flavored with fresh herbs, mushroom pasta, an amazing porkchop with polenta--and the service matched. The special menu came with 3 wines "chosen by the sommalier". What a disappointment that they chose three entirely uninteresting wines.
Loved the look and feel of the restaurant. Food as amazing, as expected. We had to try the spaghetti and see what the craze was about. After seeing Chef Scott Conant on Chopped always giving grief to anyone who doesn't cook pasta perfectly, we wanted to see how he cooked his. We were not disappointed. Perfect al dente. A little pricey to be a regular spot for us to go to but, definitely a place we will be going back to.
It's a very expensive restaurant, but very special too. This was our first time at Scarpetta and hopefully we will be back. We were using an offer received through Blackboard Eats for a prixe fixe dinner for $60 per person. I know that is not cheap, but it was actually a good deal. We got a starter (mine was a superb tuna tartare), a pasta course (heavenly), a main course (mine was a perfectly cooked snapper and my wife's was a beyond wonderful pork chop) followed by dessert. In addition, a half-glass of the correct wine was included with each course, except dessert. Also, I must also mention the basket of a variety of fresh baked breads, of which we asked for a second basket. It was a deal because the regular menu was much more.
My husband & I wanted to celebrate our 5 year anniversary with a great dinner. We chose Scarpetta because it has never let us down. Our anniversary night included. We had a great meal. The Spaghetti is the best and we keep going back for it. Other great items are the Scallops, Braised Short Rib Risotto, Mushroom Polenta and Tuna Crudo. And of course their desserts!!! Yummy. And of course Chef Vargas and his team are exceptional. We cant wait to go back again. We highly recommend this restaurant. Note: we recommend sitting at Chef's Counter and you will have no experience like it.
I really wanted to love this restaurant BUT even though the food was very good, the service was not. Wait person was not as attentive as she should have been and we waited WAY TOO LONG inbetween our appetizers and main courses, almost an hour. IMO, the restaurant is not managed as well as it should be. Our water and wine glasses were never kept filled and we had to ask for dessert menus after waiting 30 minutes to have our dinner plates cleared from our table. I had asked that a dessert be sent to our table with a candle in it for someone in our party and that never happened, even though I was told it would. For what the dinner cost, there are other places in Los Angeles with great food and better service. It is such a shame, really......
everything was great and loved all the dish except Duck main entree... little undercooked and sweet.
The starter of shortribs with vegetable farro was excellent - flavorful and toothsome. The stracci as the main dish however was veryh disappointing. The sauce was jarring - over salted and surprisingly containing red pepper flakes (not warned in the menu description as spicy) and heavy handed with the saffron. The pasta was large squares that made up most of the dish. The lobster consisted of 2 tiny pieces and 1 one inch piece, 2 very tiny cauliflower florets and 1 cherry tomato, and three fried capers made up that dish. Overpriced for the dish which left a lot to be desired. Desserts were very heavy. At least one light dessert would have been nice - perhaps a panna cotta
Had a great time! Scarpetta is a very classy place with great food, service, and ambiance.
The food was good. Service was fair. The environment was nice. Overall a good restaurant. Oh and yes their spaghetti was really good!
I always have a wonderful time when I visit Scarpetta. The scene is great. The service friendly and efficient. Food never disappoints.
I have heard nothing but great things about this place so when I was in town for business hitting this place up was on my to-do list. I loved the atmosphere and my server Mo was awesome! Chef Conant was in town and was socializing with the tables which was great to see! The carmel budino is literally to die for!
Great location-great food - I've been to NYC, Toronto and now LA - the food Tastes the same. If you are looking for romantic or fun you must try scarpetta. Cocktails are worth the price!!
Scarpetta and I go back to the month Scott Conant opened his first shop in Manhattan's meatpacking district. Prosecco to start. I always order both the creamy polenta and the beef short ribs as an app. I mix 'em together and the waiter spoons truffled mushrooms over the top. This is comfort food. My main was a tagliatelle with shaved truffles. Excellent. Service was prompt and efficient.
Wonderful Italian food and great service at this Montage Hotel restaurant. The fish entrees we ordered were extremely well prepared. The dessert menu was awesome.
The location is perfect. The bread basket is worth the calories! The stomboli is out of this world! Had the grilled octopus, very tender and flavorful. The homemade pastas are perfectly cooked. The coconut panne cotta was amazing! So worth the traffic to get here! The wait staff was friendly and very helpful in helping us decide what to order.
Scarpetta is a total winner! Food and service was the best.
Everything was absolutely great. My only criticism is that I wish the tables were covered with cloths. Just my personal preference.
We had the scallops followed by the spaghetti. Absolute perfection!!!!
On a business trip with enough time to feed my foodie side. Scarpetta was a target and with the high expectations I entered with, it far exceeded them. The Scallops were outstanding and the Tagliatelle with the duck...oh my! Absolutely one of my favorite meals ever. Wines by the glass had good options as well as an extensive bottle selection.
I thoroughly enjoyed the buffet. The bulk of the food was set out in the kitchen. The desserts and cheeses were in the lounge area. I thought it was a great setup. The food was delicious and the meat was perfectly seasoned. It did not need the accompanying sauces and gravy which also tasted wonderful on their own. CONS - the side dishes were room temperature and the crab claws were water logged. The hostess also seated a group that had a woman in a wheelchair right along the narrow path to the buffet. Patrons and waiters kept running into the handles on her wheelchair. I pulled a server aside and suggested they tie a white napkin on the handle so people would see it (this worked well).
Great place for vegetarians even though there are only a few options on the menu. I ordered the polenta with truffle mushrooms -- this was amazing! I would go back just for that. I also ordered the freshly made spinach ravioli -- this was very good as well. Loved this place and recommend it!
We arrived a bit early for an early dinner reservation and the staff was not ready to seat us. We were going to leave and come back when the floor leader (not sure of his name) came over immediately and offered to seat us and take our drink orders while we waited for the wait staff. He was so nice and professional, we were really impressed. We later ordered 4 different entrees and all met or exceeded expectations. Overall, the food quality and service levels were outstanding. We look forward to returning.

Loading... A Room With a View (original 1908; edition 2011)by Edward Morgan Forster
Work detailsA Room with a View by E.M. Forster (1908)
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. There's something rather nice about this comming of age tale. There's snobbery and all the usual hypocrasy that attends society, and it's displayed by enough people. But Eventually Lucy fnds her feet, and gets her man. A book of two halves, the being Italy, the second England. Set in the early 1900s, Lucy, the central character, is a young woman being taught the correct way to behave in society by the likes of her mother, her older cousin, and religious persons. In contrast, she meets Mr Emerson and his young son George, both of whom "tell it like it is", encouraging her to do the same. This is my first taste of E. M. Forster's work and I am impressed with his characterisation and plotting skills. He injects humour into scenes were you sometimes don't expect it, such as Lucy arguing with her fiancé, when she accuses him of not liking her mother because of her attitudes to social behaviour and puddings. The narrative did occasionally lapse into a somewhat bland tone, but overall I found it entertaining. I found Lucy a bit wishy-washy, although a fairly realistic version of a girl in her late teens at this time. For me, the most interesting part of this novel was the relationship between Lucy and Miss Barlett, although I do admit to a soft spot for Mr. Emerson Sr. :) The British tourists were pretty insufferable, but it felt true to life. I enjoyed this book, but I don't understand why it is a classic. I am not sure what was so good about it. I enjoyed the romantic storyline, of course, but I felt that the book felt like someone had torn huge chunks out of the book. The book is essentially about a romance between a young man and young woman. It is a beautiful romance that blossoms without her being aware of it. I would enjoy seeing this as a movie, especially with the italian setting. However it was like the author stopped talking any time the two main characters got close, instead he flicked to other lesser characters that seemed to serve little purpose other than to be irritating. I am hoping this is one of those books that grows on me as time passes. I recently read [b:The Great Gatsby|4671|The Great Gatsby|F. Scott Fitzgerald|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1361191055s/4671.jpg|245494] and at first I was left wondering what the fuss was about, but now as I have mulled over it for a few weeks I am starting to see and feel the nuances of the book. Perhaps it is more like [b:The Catcher in the Rye|5107|The Catcher in the Rye|J.D. Salinger|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1349928703s/5107.jpg|3036731] with an ordinary story made great by the word crafting, but I didn't feel particularly impressed by the writing. There were some really classic and enjoyable parts to the book. I particularly enjoyed the jilted-fiancee, he really was a fun character and easy to scorn, and feel a bit sorry for. I enjoyed the book, this was my first by [a:E.M. Forster|6472669|E.M. Forster|http://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1345510639p2/6472669.jpg], and I look forward to reading more of his works. An enjoyable enough read, quite funny in places, and not quite what I expected. I was a little disappointed that the character of George was not fully explored, so that it was difficult to see what it was that Lucy was attracted to - apart from the kisses, of course. no reviews | add a review Is contained inHowards End / A Room With a View / Where Angels Fear to Tread by E.

References to this work on external resources. Wikipedia in English (1)Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0553213237, Mass Market Paperback)This Edwardian social comedy explores love and prim propriety among an eccentric cast of characters assembled in an Italian pensione and in a corner of Surrey, England.A charming young Englishwoman, Lucy Honeychurch, faints into the arms of a fellow Britisher when she witnesses a murder in a Florentine piazza. Attracted to this man, George Emerson—who is entirely unsuitable and whose father just may be a Socialist—Lucy is soon at war with the snobbery of her class and her own conflicting desires. Back in England, she is courted by a more acceptable, if stifling, suitor and soon realizes she must make a startling decision that will decide the course of her future: she is forced to choose between convention and passion. The enduring delight of this tale of romantic intrigue is rooted in Forster's colorful characters, including outrageous spinsters, pompous clergymen, and outspoken patriots. Written in 1908, A Room with a View is one of E. M. Forster's earliest and most celebrated works. (retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:57:19 -0400) "The love of a young British woman named Lucy Honeychurch for a British expatriate living in Italy is condemned by her stuffy, middle-class guardians, who prefer an eligible man of their own choosing." -- Provided by publisher.

Michigan dams getting old, need attention
FLINT, Mich. (AP) - A newspaper reports that many Michigan dams are old and need upgrades, especially the Hamilton dam in downtown Flint.
State dam safety chief Byron Lane tells the Detroit Free Press that dams are like any aging public infrastructure. He says they can be a "ticking time bomb."
The newspaper reported Sunday that the Hamilton dam on the Flint River is considered to be in unsatisfactory shape, along with the Otsego and Trowbridge dams on the Kalamazoo River in Allegan County.
The state says removal of contaminated sediment in the Kalamazoo River is delaying removal of the Otsego and Trowbridge dams. The Boardman dam on the Boardman River in the Traverse City area is rated poor.
Dozens of dams are close to 50 years old or older.

SAPPHIRE Technology, a leading manufacturer and global supplier of graphics, mainboard and multimedia solutions has just introduced a new mainboard developed to support the latest A-series Fusion APU family from AMD. AMD's A-series APUs combine - on a single chip - a Quad core CPU, interface circuitry equivalent to a Northbridge and a DX11 graphics core equivalent to a desktop level graphics card, and also incorporating a 3rd-generation UVD (universal video decoder) for the accelerated decoding of HD and Blu-ray content, including stereoscopic 3D support. This APU series together with the A75 chipset, which has native support for the latest interface standards, such as SATA 6G and USB 3.0 as well as USB 2.0 and PCI-Express Gen2, makes a powerful combination that delivers all the features required in a state-of-the-art PC. The SAPPHIRE Pure Platinum A75 is a full ATX sized board making full use of the combined features of the A75 chipset and A-series APU. Four dual channel memory sockets are provided, supporting up to 16GB of DDR3 memory with current technology, and capable of supporting up to 32GB when suitable modules become available. There are four onboard USB 3.0 ports (two at the rear) as well as four USB 2.0 ports (8 including headers), as well as Gigabit LAN and Bluetooth connectivity with EDR (enhanced data rate). It has five SATA 6G ports, including AHCI and RAID support, and a SATA 3G port brought out to the rear panel on an eSATA connector. Three Video output options are provided for the graphics output of the APU - DVI, HDMI and DisplayPort - of which any pair can be used simultaneously. The HDMI 1.4a port supports both video and audio, including stereoscopic 3D output. The rear panel also has the standard I/O configuration for the on board HD 7.1 Audio. Extensive expansion support is provided by two standard PCI slots as well as one PCI-E Gen2 x4 slot, two PCI-E Gen2 x1 slots, and one mini-PCI-E x1 (Gen2) connector for modules in this new format such as wireless network cards. All this in addition to one PCI-E Gen2 x16 slot, compatible with an add-in graphics card. When a suitable graphics card is fitted, such as a member of the SAPPHIRE HD6600 or SAPPHIRE HD 6500 series, the SAPPHIRE Pure Platinum A75 supports Dual Graphics – that means that the graphical performance of the APU combines with the performance of the add-in card to achieve up to 175% of the performance of the APU graphics alone. Many user friendly features have been incorporated in the SAPPHIRE Pure Platinum A75, such as digital debug display and a push button reset for the BIOS, as well as start and system reset buttons. These are especially useful for enthusiasts interested in performance tuning or overclocking. The board has a Dual BIOS, allowing for experimentation and updates, and for the hard-core enthusiast, voltage test pads have been brought out to the edge of the board for the critical voltages on the APU and memory circuits. The build quality of the SAPPHIRE Pure Platinum A75 is high. It has a black multilayer PCB, and uses high quality gold plated connectors for USB 3.0 and LAN. It incorporates many of the high end features associated with the SAPPHIRE brand, such as the use of high reliability solid capacitors throughout. The multi-phase voltage regulation circuitry for both the APU and memory modules incorporate the patented SAPPHIRE Diamond Black chokes with coolers that have featured on SAPPHIRE's high end graphics cards. Hardware monitoring tools and the SAPPHIRE proprietary Mainboard TriXX software allow users to review and adjust a range of system parameters while optimising performance of the APU and A75 chipset. The SAPPHIRE Pure Platinum A75 is in production now, and will be available through SAPPHIRE's usual channel partners and retailers.
I simply cant understand, how anyone can hate pci slots... there is a lot of legacy stuff, like pci vgas and bios post code cards, that simply wouldnt work without it. Im glad, that they still have backwards compability in mind,as it makes troubleshooting much easier, and i hope, that they will keep at least a single pci slot, on most of the boards, for a very long time.
The Board looks cheap... dangerously cheap... And I agree about the PCI, it is quite useful, not two them maybe, but come on... this board doesn't do a quad CFX or SLI, it is for mere people that have plenty of PCI devices left, like sound cards or additional USB, legacy I/O for instruments. (I still use them instead of integrated, why? Because if there is a defective device you'll blow the card not the whole bridge out).
There is a serious lack of PWM fan headers on that board. I wouldn't want to resort to Arctic's PST system, but this board leave no choice. Also, I see FAIL. The 4th PCI-e slot has an open end, but the CMOS battery is right next to it. That must be Sapphire's way of telling us, "We leave you the option of inserting a x8, or x16, card in there, but you won't want to do it".
I have no need for PCI myself, I have would liked everything using the x16/x8 PCI-e slots. PCI should go the way of AGP dead and as for legacy cards I dont bother with them.
This is an eyeroller. If you don't like it don't buy it. Whatever... This mobo doesn't look too cool and all however dual graphics idea and the 175% boost seem nice.
i want motherboard with white pcb the motherboard market getting crowded, what they offer to us that different from other brand?
white PCBs are, for some reason, very expensive to manufacture... sadly! I also would like to see more of them again
The thing is, board with PCI outnumber boards without 236769392 to 7. PCIe purists keep bringing it up in hopes that some manufacturer will hear our plea! If you look at newegg.com there are 21 FM1 boards available. All of them have PCI. 12 with one slot, 5 with two slots, and 4 with three slots. We have to compromise while those who want X number of PCI slots have multiple options available to them. Perhaps this is why I like ITX so much, and am waiting for the ITX FM1 boards (Asus, ASrock) to ship to retailers. Only one slot and it's PCIe x16!
Errr.. This board has one PCIe x16 slot! and two PCIe x1, one PCIe x4, and two PCI slots... Don't get me wrong I like my itx boards but i didn't buy them because they only have one slot and it PCIe x16... EDIT: I'm just poke'n fun at you buddy! Don't hate on the Weaver..hehehe
It's going to be still a good while for PCI to get truly outdated. Also regarding the number of components on the board, Sapphire has always been a budget board maker(as far as I can remember). I would rate them near Asrock in terms of feature/cost, they just don't develop many boards. With that said, i would buy this board.
Didn't they pick up some of the EVGA guys that build there boards? I agree with you, I think they will try to make some high end boards and sell them budget minded like Asrock which is owned by ASUS.
Yes they did! Not the whole "dev team" just some of them. EDIT: Also not necessarily owned by Asus, more like these comparisons: Phillip Morris: Marlboro & Basic WWE Branding: Raw & Smackdown! More like a sister company so to speak. I think they are the same board manufacturing plants but different bios engineers and onboard components.
If you don't like it, well you can't buy anything because ALL boards still have PCI on it (except maybe some ridiculous SuperComputer mobo which i don't need). You buy a top of the range super duper high end mobo, place all the high end latest components around it and get annoyed by useless PCI slot on the mobo wasting space where i could have a PCIe soundcard. Instead i have to place it tight next to graphic card where it blocks half of the airflow. Not cool at all. If i turn them around, they have some more space between but then the graphic card is again at the very bottom with crippled airflow again. If we got rid of much newer AGP and also PATA connectors, why the hell we still have this archaic PCI slot on the modern boards. Last time i used PCI was with X-Fi Xtreme Music back in 2005. And even back then i was thinking, man when will they migrate this to PCIe... Now, nearly 7 years later, PCI is still around (it's a 18 years old bus), collecting dust and pissing me off. Sorry, but i see absolutely no point in keeping it around. Plus it should be the other way around. If YOU don't like the lack of PCI enabled mobo, then don't buy the PCIe one. Because quite frankly it's time for PCI to retire. If you have money to buy a brand new high end mobo you're also able to replace that ancient soundcard or whatever with a modern PCIe one. If you don't like that fact then it's tough luck. With your thinking we'd still be using Core i7 on Socket 1... it's just time to move on.
It was cheaper for me to build a dual core phenom then a apu system for my front office, though I would have prefred to build a APU system. Maybe when the back office computer dies I'll build a APU system for that one. Still pricing is a bit high and this is to be expected with a new cpu and motherboard. I expect prices drops late 2011 early 2012.
I just don't get why an ATX board for APU market, while the idea of ITX that makes sense. To me if I buy into APU's it's all about small, simple, and low power. Though with a discrete graphic option say a year from now if you think of keeping it revenant. APU's are not for the normal computer savvy build (geek), it's for OEM's building SFF, business class machines, or HTPC. Somehow everyone is pumping up these APU's into something they are not. Stop passing the Kool-Aid
All this talk about a silly pci slot, and no one not even the auther of the article has mentioned the MSATA port on the board! This is what i think makes this product stand out from the rest, should make for some interesting benchies people still use WIN XP so i think pci is still ok, you do have more choices so dont complain.
I still use a PCI sound card, cuz it works and sounds good, PCI is still a ways away from kicking the bucket for that reason.
@JP Sorry my bad , but still i think this is a feature rich mother board that will help people upgrade, i think that some of us can use most off our old hardware and still build a good and cheep system.

Obstensibly 7 pitches long, Condorphamine Addiction is one of those routes that everyone has something to say about, and not all of them good. One thing that everyone will say is that the route is overbolted, and they're right-- it's often possible to clip a bolt and back clean the one below it from a single stance. This a distraction from the quality of the climbing, which is a shame. Condorphamine Addiction packs some enjoyable moderate pitches and two excellent friction crux pitches into a long climb that ends in a commanding position high in Icicle Creek canyon. I'm giving this route 4 stars for it's aesthetic position in the canyon, for being a long and enjoyable multipitch sport climb, for interesting climbing on (most) of the easier pitches, and two crux pitches that hold their grade. It's probably worth fewer than that, but I couldn't bring myself to give it 3. The climb could be done in 7 30M pitches and I've described the climb that way below, but no sane person would climb it that way. We combined P1&2, 3&4, and 5&6; I think it would be possible to combine any 2 pitches with a 60 M rope. It may be better to split P5&6 so each leader gets one of the hard ones. Find the start of Condorphamine Addiction near the far right side of the buttress. P1. A short 5.8 pitch leads up to a set of anchors low on the face (yes, those anchors). P2. From the end of P1, climb up and into a corner (trickier than it looks), and make a series of interesting 5.9 moves up to a nice belay ledge. (5.9) P3. The dog of the climb, this is a short section of class IV and 5.0 climbing up and left on ledgy ground. P4. Head up on a face angling to the right. 5.8/5.9. P5. The first crux pitch. The crux involves interesting stemming and friction moves in an imposing and steep position. 5.10b P6. From the top of the 5th pitch continue up on 5.10 climbing to a crux section on delicate edges (5.10b). Combining P5&6 gives close to 200 feet of quality 5.10 face climbing. P7. Climb fun 5.5 terrain to the top. To descend, rap the rotue. With 2 60M ropes, you can speed your descent and have more flexibility to avoid ascending parties.
Lots o' draws. If you are combining pitches remember to bring extra draws, skip bolts, or back clean periodically.
There is an alternate start to the first pitch of this climb which is located just to the left and shares the anchor. It is Opus of the Condorian Kind (5.10a), and a good way to increase the difficulty of the route.
Overbolted, but I didn't think the route was that bad. I have taken friends to climb it for their first multi-pitch and they enjoyed it. Instead of 7 pitches you can string pitches together to make it 4.
I recently heard that a single rope rappel off the backside of the rock will get you to the ground. You can then hike around the right of the crag back to the base.
I agree, this is an excellent route to do, or take someone up, if you are teaching or practicing multi-pitch proficiency. I took a climbing partner up this route as a refresher before we headed to Prussic Peak in the Alpine Lakes Wilderness, and it helped her confidence up high in the back-country.
Good route. The hike took more energy then the climb itself (steep climbers trail). I expected a little bit more exposure and length but still fun and did it again with my fiancee. Some route notes: With a 60m we linked the 1st (Opus of the Condorian Kind which was harder then any other pitch on the climb) and 2nd pitch (20 draws), the 3rd and 4th (some long runners for this), the two crux pitches (20 or so draws) and then ran up the last 30ft 5.4 pitch. This is the way to go especially with the two crux pitches since it eliminates a semi hanging belay. It basically makes the route 3 pitches. The first crux pitch (the best section of climbing on the route) felt more like 5.9+ while the second did feel like 5.10b. Very little drag when linking these pitches. We have also done by linking the first three pitches (about 20ft of simul climbing with a 60m). This worked out well and turned the climbing into three long pitches after linking the 4th and 5th and the 5th and 6th. The descent down the back takes only a little bit longer then rapping and is not that bad, just a little dirty. It was nice to not have to bring another rope. As far as the bolting is concerned I am going to have to go with Leland on this one. It allows for a very exciting and fun experience for climbers that actually climb 5.10...even in the gym. If you need to bail anywhere, you can which makes it safe and less stressful and if a section seems too hard you can easily grab a draw to get through. This is a newer sport route not an old school, dumb ass scary trad climb. Yes, there could be fewer bolts but there is no need to whine about it. I would personally like to thank Leland for putting in the weeks I'm sure it took to establish this route.
A very chill climb in a great setting. Would recommend to anyone looking for a multipitch sport climb.
A great route with good features, especially on the upper .10 pitches. My partner and I combined the first and second, then third and fourth pitches. The rappel down was no sweat. Low commitment factor.

Incorporating the Lindam U shaped pressure fit power frame for ultimate strength when in position together with a dual action opening system and secondary locking mechanism for added safety.
We needed to use this across our hallway so bought extension pieces too. It does the job however it does take a bit of practice and a knack to being able to open it with one hand. Our other gate is BettaCare and that is so much easier to use with one hand. My only complaint is that the little grey plastic bits which are supposed to pop out to allow the extensions to be attached, do not pop out. The two top ones did, one bottom one did with a bit of force but despite using every suitable tool I could find, I could not get the other bottom one out! The plastic ended up breaking with half of it still firmly fixed inside the gate! This meant I could only attach an extender on one side, which luckily made the gate just big enough to fit across the hall but now have a redundant extension piece which I can't attach. Very annoying!
Good but not easy to operate single handed. Only drawback really.
very quick and easy to set up and works well in use - very good value overall
As grandparents we don't need a stair gate 24/7 and this one fits the bill. Because it is pressure secured it is easily put up and removed without damaging the paintwork.
The fixing is different from what is said in the product description. It says no need to drill. But it does. However it doesn't make the fixing too difficult. And it is stronger than no drills. It is not easy to open the gate using one hand..need practice to get use to it and it is definite child proof. We use it as a stair gate to prevent my baby climbing the stairs and it does the work perfectly. And when my baby tries to shake it, it stays very sturdy there.

No, nutritional yeast is not a malady caused by malnutrition. It's a delicious cheese alternative best when served smothered on broccoli. 'Nuff said.
What you need:
Throw your broccoli into the microwave and nuke for 4 minutes or until hot. Set aside. Mix the salt and nutritional yeast together and sprinkle onto the broccoli. Add the margarine and stick it back in the microwave for another minute. Stir together, and eat!

Bought these tires for my LT-Z400 that is fairly modded so it has some power, but these tires 21-11-10 were WAY too Big!! Way large paddles and they have extra cleat paddles as well so after checking the mfg web site I decided to groove off the extra cleat and mounted them on 10 x 10 wheels for my modded KFX-700 which is the smallest mach. they should go on. They work awesome, Great for High powered large mach. or powerful side by side.

Got a set of 4 for our RZR. Was drawn to these due to the price and the fact that they are wider tires than most of the paddles available ... which was likely an advantage on the heavy RZR 4 to keep the front end floating. Just not sure how spending more on front sand tires could help performance ... very happy with the way these handled.

I ordered a set of STI HD2 matte black wheels in the 6+1 offset with the 28x12x14 rears and 28x10x14 fronts and this combo looks INCREDIBLE. The wheelwells are full of fat black tires and from the rear it looks like a dragster. The matte black finish on the rims match the black trim on my sunset red and black machine perfectly. The tires added a full inch of ground clearance and the rims widened the machine a total of 2 inches to increase stability. Only played on snow and ice so far but will put them to the test in the swamp at the hunting camp this spring.

We bought this toy for our daughters first birthday. We thought it would be a great gift, as she enjoys looking at herself in the mirror so much. While she does seem to enjoy the mirror and flashing lights quite a bit, the little "attachment" toys spend more time in her mouth than for their actual purpose. However, our 3 year old son does fully appreciate the individual uses and tries to help her out. And, when that doesn't seem to work, he enjoys playing with them himself :o)

About Me First Time Parent
This toy keeps my daughter happy and entertained for much longer than expected. The music and sounds are a bit annoying as with 90% of kid's toys but it's worth it! My daugther is at the crawling stage, and she actually sits still and plays with the pieces and loves the mirror too!

My daughter loves the lights around the mirror and all the music. This is a really adorable and durable toy. It's very easy to clean. The only complaint I have is, the songs don't last very long. They stop pretty quickly. I suggest that the music lasts longer. All around a good product.

This was a gift we got for my ten month old daughter and she absolutely loves it. She likes to look at her self in the mirror and using the comb to comb her hair. She also loves to dance to the music. I like that it is educational as well and not just cute.

Grading essays: Human vs. machine
Some robo-graders can score 16K essays in 20 seconds
No one thinks twice about using machines to grade multiple-choice tests. For decades, teachers -- and students -- have trusted technology to accurately decipher which bubble was filled in on a Scantron form.
But can a machine take on the task of evaluating the written word?
A recent study conducted by the College of Education at the University of Akron collected 16,000 middle and high school test essays from six states that had been previously graded by humans. The essays were then fed into a computer scoring program.
According to the researchers, the robo-graders "achieved virtually identical levels of accuracy, with the software in some cases proving to be more reliable."
So the simple answer to whether machines can grade essays would appear to be yes. However, the situation is anything but simple.
The grading software looks for elements of good writing, such as strong vocabulary and good grammar.
What it isn't able to do is distinguish nuance, or even truth.
Les Perelman, a director of writing at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, is a critic of these robo-graders. He's had a chance to study how some of the programs work, and says they can be gamed if you can determine the preferences set by the scoring algorithms.
For example, Perelman said in a New York Times article that the machines focus on composition, but have no concern with accuracy. According to Perelman, "any fact will do as long as it is incorporated into a well-structured sentence."
Dr. Mark Shermis, dean of Akron's College of Education and one of the authors of the study, acknowledges that "automatic grading doesn't do well on very creative kinds of writing. But this technology works well for about 95 percent of all the writing that's out there."
Another point in the machine's favor: speed. The New York Times article points out that human graders working as quickly as possible are expected to grade up to 30 essays in an hour.
In contrast, some robo-graders can score 16,000 essays in 20 seconds.
That disparity would seem to support Shermis' view that robotic graders can serve "as a supplement for overworked" entry-level writing instructors. But he warns that his findings shouldn't be used as a justification to replace writing instructors with robots.
What these robo-graders can do, Shermis says, is "provide unlimited feedback to how you can improve what you have generated, 24 hours a day, seven days a week."

The Resource Center has all the info you'll need From content to user feedback, the resource center has the information you need for every level of the entrepreneurial process.
Something extraordinary happened in Kansas City last Thursday. For the second year in a row, some of Kansas City's largest organizations participated in a reverse pitch. KCNext, the host and organizer, brought in a capacity crowd of over 200 entrepreneurs and other Global Entrepreneurship Week event participants. There were 65 events in Kansas City spread across a week and a half. But this event was different. This one was special.
Even with the most intuitive educational material, sometimes the most important thing a students needs is the ability to ask questions. For entrepreneurs, who are often lifelong learners, this is essential to the application of the material to their business. While online learning can facilitate opportunities to learn lessons anytime, anywhere that might not otherwise be available, the opportunity to engage directly with experts creates important connections and discussions.
Last night I had the privilege of watching the first ever Get in the Ring Competition in the United States. Though this competition is in its sixth year, this was the first year that the United States had participated. The process began in August with groups of judges sorting through about 300 applications from startups all across the country. After several rounds of judging, the final eight startups were invited to Kansas City to participate in the U.S. version of Get in the Ring, the American Startup Clash.
What if we could take the top talent coming out of colleges and universities today, those that tend to feed into law school, med school, Wall Street and consulting, and put them in startups all over the country? Imagine the job growth possibilities we could create in the country just by giving recent graduates a taste of that entrepreneurial bug. Now, what if I told you there's an organization trying to do just that. Enter--Venture for America.
During my years at the Kauffman Foundation I have seen firsthand the effect that education can have on the development of entrepreneurs and their companies. The entrepreneurs with whom I have worked have taken the lessons they have learned and applied them to great effect in their endeavors as founders. These entrepreneurs benefited from opportunities to learn critical skills, and from gaining an understanding of crucial decisions or junctures that often can derail entrepreneurial businesses.
Last week, we hosted Ice House Facilitator Training here at the Foundation. We had people come from across the country and the international community to be trained in how to facilitate an entrepreneurial mindset to members of their community. I had the chance to sit down with one of the facilitators, Rob Elwood, and learn about his reason for coming to this training, and how he sees it benefiting his community in Annapolis, Md.
If you've been paying attention to our work at Kauffman for a while, it should come as no surprise to you that we're committed to making community colleges a front door to entrepreneurship. In particular, we see tremendous potential in these schools to support innovative, high-growth, technology-based startups in their communities, whether their founders are students, researchers, experienced entrepreneurs or full-time professionals preparing to take their first leap into entrepreneurship.
Last Thursday, I joined 120 problem-solvers from around the Midwest at the iKC event at the H&R Block Headquarters. The event was an un-conference, meaning there were no pre-set rules or even an agenda. We came together to choose and vote on several topics of discussion we found interesting, and we then had four breakout sessions throughout the day to meet and discuss the 28 selected topics.
When one thinks of Mexico City, startup companies would not normally be at the top of anyone's mind. But, I had the chance to spend a few hours with some of the local entrepreneurial organizers there last week and was very impressed with what I saw.

(Quote by Albert Einstein:
The word curiosity is in yellow and very big, there is a picture with a purple background, the picture is showing some students one in the middle who has pigtails (seems to at least present as a girl) is raising hir hand apparently painfully, trying to get attention that doesn't seems to be received)
ALBERT EINSTEIN: The important thing
Credit: Gavin Aung Than
I look at this and cry a little.
As a young student with disabilities (unknown to me, but you always know when you're different), I have always had trouble initiating social contact, especially in school. I remember quite clearly being taught not to ask questions by a teacher. As a young student who rarely raised her hand to either volunteer information, answer questions, or ask questions, this had a profound effect on me, even to this day. The few times I was curious, or tried to answer questions, I was practically humiliated in front of the class and even sent to stand in the hall. I didn't know what I had done wrong, other than raise my hand and speak.
Since Grade 4, I refused to answer teacher's questions, raise my hand or participate in class. If I did, it was a huge feat for me, and only happened when I was absolutely sure of the answer, mainly in Grade 12. It probably affected my ability to ask for help and my willingness to request and use accommodation, meaning my grades probably suffered.
I'm turning 27 in a little over a week; I'm still dealing with this. It's a bit easier, now that my classes are online. But how I wish that never happened to me, that throughout my academic career I could have been the girl in the picture, eager to openly ask questions and learn. I don't think that teacher meant to hurt me like she did, but the fact remains that she did, and I'm living with the result.
I'm so sorry this happened to you.

Beauty Expiration
Out with the old and in with the new! Follow this timeline to know when its time to swap out your favorite skin and makeup products with some brand-new tubes. Test a new look with our Instant Makeover tool today!
By Colleen Moody
Beauty Expiration
Admit it: If you took a peek into your cosmetic bag, you might find a tube of your favorite lip gloss from 7th grade. We all hang on to makeup longer than we should, but with the new decade in full swing, make a vow to start fresh for your face's sake. Follow this timeline to see if you should keep or ditch your everyday hair and makeup products. Your skin will thank you!
Liquid foundations and concealers should be replaced every six months. To make your foundation last as long as possible, be sure to store it in a cool area. This is especially vital in the summer, when the heat and humidity can take a toll on the ingredients inside by melting and separating them.
Lip Gloss and Lipstick
Lip glosses and lipsticks can last anywhere from 18 months to two years. Keep a watchful eye on your favorite hues — if you notice an off smell or taste, toss them in the trash and treat yourself to a new tube! Also be wary of who you let stick their fingers in your favorite pot 'o gloss. Friends with a cold who swipe your gloss with their fingers have now just made your favorite lip gloss a breeding ground for bacteria.
Blush and Bronzer
Powdered blushes and bronzers are good for six to nine months. The key here is to replace your brushes and applicators when you replace your compacts. If you prefer using a nicer set of brushes that you splurged on, you don't need to toss those, but make sure they get a thorough washing at least every nine months.
Give your lotion a big 'ol kiss it's the longest-lasting beauty product in your bathroom! Though some of the ingredients (especially if you go for organic products and moisturizers) won't be as potent, regular lotion, including products with SPF, is good for up to three years, according to David Leffell, M.D., professor of dermatology at Yale School of Medicine. But again, keep an eye as you lather and if you notice your lotion getting lumpy, smelling funny, or having an odd hue, splurge on a new bottle. If you are heading to the beach and are using strictly SPF, replace your bottle every year so that the ingredients are at their strongest to protect you from a bad burn.
Face Wash
Face wash is a long-lasting beauty product, but unfortunately for us, we usually use up the bottle before it's even close to the expiration date — which is one to two years. If you wash your face twice a day, you will finish yours in less than three months.
Your loofah's job is to scrub dead skin cells off of your body. Gross, right? It goes without saying that while this is a helpful tool, it is one that needs to be replaced quite often. A study done in the Journal of Clinical Microbiology shows that if not replaced, loofahs can harbor many bacterial species, which then leads to skin rashes and breakouts. To prevent this, replace yours every three months.
Mascara is one of the most common places for bacteria to live, because of its wet nature. If you use it only for special occasions, you can replace your tube every six months. If you wear it daily, you'll want to swap yours every three months.
Eye Shadow
If you are using a powder eye shadow, you can keep it for up to two years, as long as you replace your brushes. It's easier for bacteria to grow in cream shadows, so you should switch them out every 12 to 18 months.
For the liquid eyeliner lovers, use the same rule of thumb as replacing your mascara — every three months. Toss eyeliner pencils if they are older than two years. Keeping your eyeliners sharpened will help them stay fresh longer.
Another long-lasting oral hygiene product, mouthwash lasts up to three years from its manufacture date. Mouthwashes that have alcohol, like Listerine, will have an expiration date on the bottle because they expire more quickly than nonalcoholic washes.
Teeth-Whitening Strips
You can use your whitening strips after the expiration date, but don't expect to get the same results as you would from a new package. To preserve your strips longer, try sticking them in the refrigerator until you are ready to use them.
Only using a spritz of hairspray for your cousin's wedding this weekend? No sweat. These cans last two to three years. Since you aren't directly applying anything to your skin or hair, you can share with a friend without fear of getting a beauty bug.
Replacing your hairbrush depends on how much stress you are putting on it. If you notice the bristles getting softer, it's probably time for a new one. And while we're on the topic of brushes, you should replace your toothbrush at least every three months. That is one area of your beauty routine you don't want to cut corners with!
Shampoo and Conditioner
If you're cleaning out your closet and find a stray combo pack of shampoo and conditioner, you can savor it for two to three years. So don't be afraid to bulk up the next time you make a beauty run.

Comments about Toys R Us 1001325 Tabeo Folio Case and Stand - Blue:
The Tabeo is great, only thing we don't like about it is if you shut it all the way down, you have to connect it to a power cord to turn it back on which isn't real convenient if you have it in the car. The tabeo case works very well.

MONACO (AP) — Usain Bolt's 100 and 200 meter world records have been ratified by the International Association of Athletics Federations.
Both marks were set at the World Championships in Berlin in August when the Jamaican ran 9.58 seconds for the 100 and 19.19 for the 200, beating the records he set at last year's Olympics in Beijing.
The IAAF also ratified Anita Wlodarczyk's world record hammer throw of 77.96 meters which the Polish athlete also set at the Worlds.

My HIV Journey
My HIV Journey Aaron Laxton I am simply a guy who on June 6, 2011, received the news that over 33 million people have received: I am HIV positive. I decided in that split moment to record the journey that I was embarking on so that I might help others as they receive that news. I am not a doctor and I do not endorse any agenda other than simply living a healthy life. I am an activist and advocate and simply want to make the world a better place. I hold a degree in sociology and psychology. I am a product of the Missouri Foster System and this is one of my main passions, second only to the work I do with HIV/AIDS outreach and prevention. I embrace a sex-positive model. People are going to have sex; it is a natural part of who we are. However we need to make sure that it is safe. I can be found on weekends throughout St. Louis, Missouri, passing out condoms and safe-sex kits. Whether in St. Louis, DC or around the nation, I always jump at the chance to help change not only policies to better serve those that need help but to also change the landscape of the society that we live in.

/[kernel-sec]/retired/CVE-2005-0177 |
Parent Directory | Revision Log
Links to HEAD: | (view) (download) (annotate) |
Sticky Revision: |
move retired to the top level hierarchy so people can easily checkout just the active issues
retire issues that: 1) sarge is no longer vulnerable to 2) upstream >= 2.6.17.x has a fix 3) have no ubuntu kernels listed these issues could still use some polishing - listing of patch names used, fixed versions marked, etc - but they no longer need to be tracked
start tracking security issues in linux-2.6.16
nls_ascii.c isn't in <= 2.4.27
drop generic 2.6.8 - just track 2.6.8-sarge-security. Move all of the issues that were fixed in <= 2.6.8-16 to the 2.6.8-sarge-security bucket so we don't lose that info.
make tracking more consistent: if a 2.6.8 issue is fixed up to 2.6.8-16, it N/A for 2.6.8-sarge-security and vice versa
track issues against linux-2.6 instead of against each major release 2.6.12, 2.6.13, 2.6.14
use sync-pkg-list to add 2.4.18 hppa kernels to the tracker
mitre is retroactively using CVE-XXXX-XXX instead of CAN-XXXX-XXXX, let's do the same
here's a bunch of old issues - most of which are already fixed in sarge, but not in woody.
move patch-tracking into a non-user-specific location, as announced on the mailing list
various updates
add woody kernel trees to boilerplate
create a real boilerplate & move all teh sample stuff to an example file
boiler plate comment
get all patches in the same format (which requires a few tweaks)
"branch" horms' patch tree so i can do some hacking on the system..
Updated boilerplate to use pre-requisite.dpatch, dannf: please confirm
Added new patch (and symlink to 2.4 patch) updated boilerplate to have Description format and 2.4 kernels updated sys_get_thread to have proper 2.6.8-sarge16 version
updated boilerplate added debian version sys_get_thread is fixed in
add bug field
add version modifier
a partial boilerplate to use for tracking; horms, micah: please take a look
