"Police Officers"
They put their lives on the line everyday
These men and women who we should thank
Instead we hurl accusations at them
We yell at them for mistakes we make
We kill them
They have one of the highest stress rates
Suicide rates
Divorce rates
And we have the nerve to beat them down
They save our lives everyday
But all we think about is how they are pulling us over
To give us a ticket, making us late
You are the real-life heroes of our time
Thank you for doing a thankless job
Thank you for making our streets safe
For us, for our kids.
For me.

In the mornings, you're hearing the first, tentative music of songbirds, as they tone up their lungs for the annual mating season. Birds sing primarily to attract mates and establish nesting territories. But behind that simple sentence, many surprising stories lie.
To begin with, most songbirds aren't born with their songs intact. They learn to sing the way human beings learn so speak -- by listening to their parents. At first, their songs are a sort of babble, like baby talk. With practice, they put the notes and cadences together.
If a hatchling is raised by a bird of another species, it will learn the "wrong" song, which puts it out of the mating game.
It's different with most mammals, whose sounds are hard-wired into their genes. A dog will bark and a mouse will squeak, no matter who raises it. Some birds are hard-wired, too. Doves will always coo and owls will screech. Only songbirds – especially those classed as Passeriformes -- or "perching birds"-- have options. There are often local accents. Black-capped chickadees sing slightly differently, depending on where they live.
Among songbirds, males do most of the singing – engaging in long and complex song duels to prove themselves. The length and tone of the males' songs are clues to their virility. Robust singing indicates a healthier bird or one that controls a more productive feeding territory. That makes it more likely that he'll be able to provide food and defend a female when she is sitting on the eggs. The female listens carefully to what's on offer. After several days of listening, she will select a mate.
Male combat songs demonstrate their ferocity without having to risk injury through actual combat. They give other birds specific information about the location and identity of the songster. The male will evaluate any replies, to determine who the rival is and how far he is away. The bird can tell the songs of males parked legitimately in neighboring territories from those of a new and potentially threatening interloper.
Song solves another problem birds face: the need to communicate with others of their species across considerable distances, while remaining concealed from predators. Sound travels in all directions. It can penetrate through or around objects without necessarily divulging the singer's exact location, as many a birdwatcher will frustratingly attest.
In forests, where sound bounces off trees and is absorbed by the leaves, birds like the ovenbird use a rapid but penetrating song to ensure that their messages gets across. Out on fields and open spaces, birds like the savannah sparrow make a persistent buzzing sound which carries over long distances. Yet other birds, like yellow warblers, simply pick a tall cedar or other high perch and blast their message for all to hear.
Besides songs, birds have calls. A call is normally simple and short. Northern cardinals, for example, use a loud metallic-like chip. It warns other birds of danger or orders them out of the owner's territory. Both males and females call.
Human activity is altering bird song. Birds have to be heard over everything from car engines in cities to oil and gas drilling in the desert and plains. Some birds simply leave the area when development arrives. Others stay but change the key they sing in, so they can be heard over the din. We do not yet have enough data to know what impact this will have on mating, if any.
Anyone who has tried to sleep late on a spring morning knows that birds sing the most and the loudest just around dawn. Scientists suggest several possible reasons for this. It could be that the dawn hours are the best time for sound to travel, as there is usually little wind and the least number of other noises about. Dawn is also a time when birds can do little else: the light and temperatures are low, insects are not very active and it's hard for birds to see their prey. Another theory is that birds' calorie reserves are low after the long night. By singing a robust song to a female, the male is advertising that he's still strong.
If you love bird song, the coming weeks are the time to throw open your windows and listen to the mounting chorus. By July the nesting season starts to wind down. The birds go into their annual feather molt—a vulnerable period. They become very quiet so that predators will not detect them..
Bird song is a highly complex topic that we are only just beginning to understand. But listen this spring, as the annual mating dance tunes up. Those birds aren't singing for fun, they're singing for their lives.

Reference Guide to the Geneva Conventions
A Brief History of the Laws of War
Attempts to put limits on wartime behavior have been around
since the beginning of recorded history and there have been numerous attempts
to codify the rules of appropriate military conduct.
In the sixth century BCE, Chinese warrior Sun Tzu suggested
putting limits on the way that wars were conducted.
Around 200 BCE, the notion of war crimes as such appeared in
the Hindu code of Manu.
In 1305, the Scottish national hero Sir William Wallace was
tried for the wartime murder of civilians.
Hugo Grotius wrote "On the Law of War and Peace" in 1625, focusing
on the humanitarian treatment of civilians.
In 1865, Confederate officer Henry Wirz was executed for murdering
Federal prisoners of war at the Andersonville prisoner of war camp. He was only
one of several people who were tried for similar offenses.
In fact, it's been the past century and a half that has really
seen a qualitative jump in the degree to which constraints have been placed
on warring parties, and only this century that an international body has been
formed to police the nations of the world.
The first Geneva Convention was signed in 1864 to protect the
sick and wounded in war time. This first Geneva Convention was inspired by Henri
Dunant, founder of the Red Cross. Ever since then, the Red Cross has played
an integral part in the drafting and enforcement of the Geneva Conventions.
These included the 1899 treaties, concerning asphyxiating gases
and expanding bullets. In 1907, 13 separate treaties were signed, followed in
1925 by the Geneva Gas Protocol, which prohibited the use of poison gas and
the practice of bacteriological warfare.
In 1929, two more Geneva Conventions dealt with the treatment
of the wounded and prisoners of war. In 1949, four Geneva Conventions extended
protections to those shipwrecked at sea and to civilians.
The Hague Convention on the Protection of Cultural Property
was signed in 1954, the United Nations Convention on Military or Any Other Hostile
Use of Environmental Techniques followed in 1977, together with two Additional
Protocols to the Geneva Conventions of 1949, extending their protections to
civil wars.
There is no one "Geneva Convention." Like any other body of
law, the laws of war have been assembled piecemeal, and are, in fact, still
under construction.
It is impossible to produce a complete and up-to-date list
of war crimes. Even today, weapon systems such as land mines are being debated
at the highest levels of international policy.
What follows is a basic reference to the most common protections
and prohibitions, as provided for in the four 1949 Geneva Conventions and the
two 1977 protocols.

Teen shot on way to church in stable condition
DORCHESTER, Mass. (WHDH) -- A 13-year-old boy shot through the stomach while he was walking to church is starting to recover. But in Dorchester, fellow churchgoers are looking for ways to heal from more violence.
The boy was heading to choir practice and had just texted his mom saying he was on his way. The next message she got was from Boston police saying her son had been shot.
"I was on my way to church last night when this happened. It's shocking, but I'm going to be honest with you it's the reality of the times we live in," said Nigel David, church pastor.
The boy hit by the bullet is a junior deacon at Berea Seventh Day Adventist Church. He sings in the choir and friends say he hopes to become a minister.
""He's never getting in trouble and there's no reason for him to get into trouble because he's always here with us," said J.D. Chery, church treasurer.
Boston police investigating the shooting called him an innocent young man. He was shot through the stomach around 7 p.m. Friday. Church members prayed for the boy during a service Saturday morning.
"The fact that Gabriel is alive is nothing short of a miracle. He could have been dead," said David.
At church there is a sense of relief, but leaders said it's time now for everyone in the community to take on more responsibility.
"It's our job as the adults in the community to keep them as safe as possible."
The teenager was transported to Boston Medical Center where he is in stable condition. Police have not made an arrest.
Church leaders are holding a meeting Wednesday night at 7 p.m. and inviting the public to participate in a conversation on how to make the streets safer.

September 13, 2013
By Benét J. Wilson
The first time I covered apps that AOPA members said were their favorites was on Nov. 13. The next round I covered was on Feb. 26. Now I offer another five aviation apps recommended by members. These are not endorsements of any app.
AeroWeather Pro ($3.99 in iTunes and $3.93 in Google Play)—A recent addition on the Android platform, the member said he likes how this smartphone and tablet app allows users to check METARs and TAFs either in a raw format or in an easy-to-read text. Users can choose worldwide airport weather stations from the built-in database by either name or ICAO code.
Aircraft Tail Number Lookup (free on Google Play)—This smartphone app allows users to "dream about planes I want to own," according to the member who submitted it. Use the app to look up tail numbers in the FAA database, including model, engine, seats, and owner.
Spyglass ($3.99 in iTunes)—This is an advanced compass and GPS navigation app for the iPhone and iPad. It includes an augmented reality navigator, a hi-tech viewfinder, milspec compass, gyrocompass, maps, and tactical GPS. Users can save, find, track, and share their position, multiple waypoints, bearings, sun, moon, and stars, all in real time.
SwitchBox (free in iTunes)—This app, matched with the SwitchBox control ($299), allows users to turn on their engine heater by sending a text to their iPhone or iPad. Messages can be scheduled up to 18 hours in advance.
FlashPass (free on iTunes, but $1.99 for each submission or $7.99 for a five pack)—A member raves about this iPhone/iPad app, approved by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, saying it's the best way to complete eAPIS (Electronic Advance Passenger Information System) for international travel. The app stores all your past passengers, allowing you to file quickly. Users can clone or adapt older plans, and it even alerts when you have any passengers with a passport that's about to expire.
You all have been great to send in some useful apps. I'm looking for more apps on the Android platform and in the following categories: charts/maps, FBOs/services, fuel, instrument simulators, and radar. And developers, if you have new apps you want to share or updates to existing ones, please share. I can be reached here. The complete list of apps I've reviewed is here.
Topics Pilot Gear and Services, Apps, eAPIS, FAA Procedures and Services, Tablet, Aircraft and Avionics, GPS, New, Aircraft Design
Apps that handle everything from checking aircraft N numbers to calculating crosswind, tailwind, and headwind components are among those recommended by AOPA members.
Five aviation apps developers make their pitch to AOPA members.
Flight Training Apps lets you be a fly on the wall during the ground portion of a private pilot checkride.
AOPA thanks our members for their continued support in protecting the freedom to fly.

Water and sewer rates will rise for city services in 2013.
City Council approved a 6 percent rate increase to the city's water service and a 3 percent increase in the city's sanitary sewer rate on Tuesday, Dec. 4. Both rates will take effect Jan. 1, 2013.
A 6 percent water rate increase equates to an increase of approximately $2 per month for the average residential water customer, said Deputy City Manager Scott Brunka. The 3 percent sewer rate increase equates to an increase of approximately $1 per month, Brunka said.
Lebanon's water rates will still remain 1.8 percent below the average for the surrounding area based on a 2012 survey of water costs conducted by the city Oakwood.
The rates increases are necessary to support capital improvement projects and continued operations of the services, said Brunka. In particular, the water rate increase was necessitated by the city's transition to the Greater Cincinnati Water Works pipeline, a four year project that was completed in October. The transition required the replacement of a number of water mains within the city. Future water main replacement projects are also planned on Summit and East streets and Highland Avenue, Brunka said.
Over the past ten years, the city's water main replacement program has eliminated lead water services, increased main sizes to support required fire flows, replaced leaking water mains to reduce water loss and substantially reduced water main breaks, Brunka said.
Even with the proposed rate increase, the sewer fund will still consume more than $300,000 from its cash reserves to fund planned system improvements and sustain current operations, Brunka said.The 3 percent rate increase will generate an additional $100,000 in revenue. The 6 percent increase in the water rate will generate an additional $175,000 per year.
Council voted 4-2 to approve the water rate raise and 5-1 to approve the sewer rate raise.

Basic American Principles
Another fantastic article from Tennessee State Representative Susan Lynn's. She is so eloquent in describing the nature of Freedom in our country – and the perversion of it by the moochers and looters - the Conservative Women speak TRUTH TO POWER. They are our best hope for the future. Palin , Bachmann and now Lynn! be sure to get a feed subscription to her blog HERE
Wednesday, December 23, 2009
Let's look at some of the foundational principles of American government; the principles that made our nation great.
The purpose of our government is to secure our rights
The Declaration of Independence established the American view of the rights of man and the duties of government. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed." They concluded by stating that our "separate but equal station" with Britain and other governments of the world would give us "full power to levy war, conclude peace, contract alliances, establish commerce, and to do all other acts and things which independent states may of right do."
Our Constitution, drafted in 1787, used the Declaration of Independence as a guide to governance. The Constitution up-holds the purpose of our government, to secure our rights, and provides seventeen specific powers to the federal government in Article 1, Section 8. Two years later a Bill of Rights was added by the states in order to prevent misconstruction and abuse of federal powers; succeeding amendments bring the total number of enumerated federal powers to 30. None of those 30 powers grant general legislative authority to the federal government. In fact, such powers belong only to the states; called police powers – states pass laws to secure the rights of individuals.
So what they created is the freest county in the world – with a government that recognizes mans' unalienable rights, and whose purpose is to secure those rights for its citizens'. In the United States, all have freedom and all understand that we can express our freedoms until we infringe upon another's freedom. Except where individual actions may infringe on the unalienable and Constitutional rights of another, our government is to stay out of the affairs of the people and of business.
Our government cannot take-away or infringe on our rights
Our nation, our Constitutional Republic is based upon natural rights. But just what are unalienable rights and Constitutional rights? An unalienable right is a natural right granted to man by our Creator; described ever so simply as life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness in our Declaration of Independence and it is also a Constitutional right. Life is, well, life. Examples of liberty are freedom to believe, or become, or protect yourself; a right to your speech, your reputation, and the things you create. Pursuit of happiness is freedom to make your own way, own your own property or live anywhere; a right to what you earn.
Constitutional rights such as trial by jury, to bear arms and vote don't seem natural. They are not natural, but they do serve to directly secure our natural rights. For instance, who judges our actions is very important because we can lose our liberty as punishment. Arms are not natural – but protecting yourself, especially from your own government, is a natural right. Therefore, the right to bear arms serves to secure your natural rights. The right to vote protects your right to self-determination and liberty, even speech. All in all, unalienable or Constitutional, our rights are rights which no government can take-away, question or alter, they are unalienable. No social contract can cause us to surrender these rights.
Rights are of no cost to anyone else
My freedom of speech costs you nothing. Your freedom of religion costs me nothing.
The liberal error; confusing needs with rights; confusing positive and negative
What liberals tend to do is to believe that they can "create" rights out of needs and then demand those rights from the government in the form of services – such as for health care. The liberals' major mistake is that they not only misunderstand what rights are but they also misinterpret rights as "positive rights" – in other words, that the government has an obligation to provide a particular right to each citizen.
For example, we have laws against crime, and in the past there have been times when citizens have sued the government because the police didn't arrive in time to prevent that crime. While you have a natural right not to be harmed, there is no right to expect that the government will prevent you from becoming a victim of a crime; the government is not at any fault or liability in this instance.
Liberals need to understand that rights are natural and negative. There cannot be a natural right to health care. Making health care a right requires infringing upon your rights and the rights of others. Aches and pains are natural but there is no natural right that someone must tend to your every ache or pain. To take resources (money, labor or goods) from one to give to another violates our natural right to our own property. For the government to force you to buy something that is not for the purpose of protecting the rights of another, such as liability car insurance, is a taking of your property in direct violation of your rights.
America is about freedom
Defending our nation from foreign invaders, serving justice through the courts and constructing an orderly monetary and bankruptcy system are enumerated powers in the Constitution. Each of those federal powers helps to secure the continuance of our government, our liberty and our property. Government financing of health care is not an enumerated power of the federal government nor is health care a natural right.
In fact today, the federal government does thousands of things not enumerated in the Constitution – and although it has become customary in Washington, this is why millions object. You can't fundamentally change the fact that the whole point and most unique feature of our American government is that the government cannot infringe or take-away our natural, unalienable or Constitutional rights.
Federal legislators have had a good time through the 20th and now 21st century infringing on the states, and satisfying the Liberals by creating all kinds of programs and laws that spend trillions and trillions of dollars, all of it at direct expense to individual freedom and liberty and states' rights.
What most of us want liberals to understand is that the most important basic principle of our American government is – America is about freedom. The citizen is in charge. He is not just a funding source for the federal legislators' – there are limits to federal power and purpose. It is the American people that have always solved the problems of our nation – and we must be free in order to continue to do so.

Daio said to Genchu:Since ancient times, the enlightened ancestors appearing in the world relied just on their own fundamental experience to reveal something of what is before us: so we see them knocking chairs and raising whisks, hitting the ground and brandishing sticks, beating a drum or rolling balls…Daio continued:Even though this is so, eminent Genchu, you have traveled all over and spent a long time in monasteries. Don't worry about such old calendar days as these I mentioned – just go by the living road you see on your own; going east, going west, like a hawk sailing through the skies. In the blink of an eye you cross over to the other side.On another occasion Daio said to Kusho:The cause and conditions of the one great concern of the enlightened ones is not apart from your daily affairs. There is no difference between here and there. It pervades past and present, shining through the heavens, mirroring the earth. That is why it is said that everything in the last myriad eons is right in the present.We value the great spirit of a hero only in those concerned. Before any signs become distinct, before any illustration is evident, concentrate fiercely, looking, looking, coming or going, till your effort is completely ripe.In the moment of a thought, you attain union. The mind of birth and death is destroyed and suddenly you clearly see your original appearance, the scene of your native land; each particular distinctly clear. You then see and hear just as the buddhas did, know and act as the enlightened ancestors did.
Maneesha, one who is interested in knowing who he is has two ways open to him. One is the way of knowledge: reading scriptures, studying old scholars, collecting as many concepts about one's being as possible. That is the cheaper way. There would be nothing wrong if it were only that it is cheaper, but it is wrong, too.
The second way is not to bother about others. Howsoever valuable those scriptures may be, they cannot give you even a single glimpse of your fundamental nature. A thousand buddhas together cannot force you to become a buddha.
It is your essential right to know your fundamental nature or not to know it. You cannot be forced by teachers, by parents. Yes, they can force knowledge upon you, they can force ideologies upon you. They do force religion, without understanding that if you are full of ideologies you become almost crippled, prevented from knowing your own nature. You are so burdened with borrowed knowledge that you cannot travel to the higher mountains. You have to drop all your weight. As you go high even breathing becomes difficult; even to have your clothes on becomes difficult. You have to drop all weight, you have to become weightless.
What is true in mountaineering is also true in the inner world of consciousness. If you want to go in you will have to cut through, in a single blow, all the knowledge that has been given to you. Just burn it! It is better to be ignorant on the path – because at least ignorance is innocence – than to be knowledgeable.
Knowledgeability is the greatest hindrance to knowing, because you think as if you already know. But there is no "as if" in existence. Either you know it or you don't know it. And there is no way of communicating it through words; all words will be misunderstood. Only the presence of a living master, a wordless silence, can perhaps become a glimpse, a triggering point in you. It is not being done by the master; it happens in your receptivity, in your openness. Something clicks. There is no other word to replace the word click.
Daio is saying to Genchu:
Since ancient times, the enlightened ancestors appearing in the world relied just on their own fundamental experience to reveal something of what is before us…

it is nice and soft but you need a blanket in the winter
I bought the blue one for my daughter's bed and the sage one for my son's bed. The sage one is a little lighter than the display-- I would have preferred a richer color. The comforters are a great weight-- warm but will be good all year round. Both kids love their new bedding.
It was really great for the price. The color was not a true red so I had to some adujusting of colors in room
I was pleasantly surprised with this comforter set since the price was pretty low. I needed something inexpensive for a basement bedroom and this looks good on the bed. I already had a dust ruffle and would suggest purchasing one if you decide to order this comforter.
I ordered Fig, And they sent me RED!!! Nice comforter, but someone screwed up on color!! i give it two stars becauce of the color mistake. other than that very nice comforter. Made in San Francisco!
Not exactly what i thought i was ordering. Not sure if i erred or if the picture was a misrepresentations.
Plenty nice, color was not what I thought it would be.
I'm very impressed with the warmth (for winter months) as well as the feel of the fabric. And so light weight too!
Color is off! I ordered a purple comforter and the color is a cross between maroon and purple. Not real pleased!
Beautiful Fig Color. Perfect lightweight comforter and very soft. Couldn't be happier with my purchase!

There's an old joke about a physician in her place of worship:
Every week she goes, but no matter how she tries, people disturb her during her prayers. "Doctor, my knee hurts — can you help me out?" asked the farmer. "My child has a rash on his back — what should I do?" asked the mother. After the service one day, the physician shares the problem with one of her friends who is a lawyer. "It really drives me crazy. Every week I come to worship, and I'm sitting there trying to pray, but people come up to me and ask for medical advice. It's very disturbing, and it gets in the way of my worship. What should I do? . . .

Rangers shoot coyote that had run-in with young girl
NEHALEM, Ore. – State officials shot and killed a coyote that injured a small girl and was acting aggressively towards other people at Nehalem Bay State Park.
Larry Oswald, the park manager, said the coyote was spotted following at least four separate groups of people at the park late last week.
In one case, the animal made contact with a 5-year-old girl on Thursday night, injuring her back. In other incident, the coyote also nudged a small child, Oswald said.
Concerned that the animal was acting so aggressively, Oswald said park officials tracked it down early Saturday morning and shot it.
The animal's carcass was taken to Oregon State University where it will be tested for rabies and other diseases.
Oswald said other coyotes spotted by rangers acted normally and ran away. This animal, however, did not seem as skittish around the rangers as it should have been.
He said this coyote they shot matches the description of the animal that came into contact with the park visitors.
Incidents of coyotes having any interaction with humans are rare on the coast. In fact, the incident where the girl was injured was the first ever such encounter recorded in an Oregon state park, officials said.
The girl's mother said she did nothing to provoke the animal. In the other cases, visitors either had small children or small dogs around when the coyote approached them.
Parks officials posted warnings asking visitors to be aware of their surroundings when walking on the beach or dunes in the evening or after dark and, of course, not to leave food out.

Roman Catholic Archbishop Pier Luigi Celata, secretary emeritus of the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue (PCID), visited Japan in August to attend the Interreligious Gathering of Prayer for World Peace in commemoration of the 25th anniversary of the Religious Summit Meeting on Mount Hiei. The gathering was held August 3-4 at the Kyoto International Conference Center in Kyoto and Enryakuji temple on Mount Hiei, in Shiga Prefecture.
Archbishop Celata also met with other religious leaders at various places, including the headquarters of Rissho Kosei-kai, in Tokyo. Accompanied by Archbishop Joseph Chennoth, apostolic nuncio to Japan, and Most Rev. Peter Takeo Okada, the archbishop of Tokyo, he visited Rissho Kosei-kai headquarters on August 1. They conferred with Rev. Nichiko Niwano, president of Rissho Kosei-kai and of the Japanese Committee of the World Conference of Religions for Peace (Religions for Peace Japan), and Ven. Gijun Sugitani, chair of Religions for Peace Japan, in the Horin-kaku Guest Hall. Also present were Mrs. Nichiko Niwano; Rev. Kosho Niwano, president-designate of Rissho Kosei-kai; Dr. Munehiro Niwano, president of Rissho Kosei-kai's Gakurin Seminary; and Rev. Masahiro Nemoto, director of its External Affairs Department; and Rev. Tomokazu Hatakeyama, secretary-general of Religions for Peace Japan.
During the meeting, Archbishop Celata conveyed greetings to President Niwano from Jean-Louis Pierre Cardinal Tauran, president of PCID. Archbishop Celata expressed the Vatican's appreciation for its long, cordial relationship with Rissho Kosei-kai. President Niwano said he participated in the World Day of Prayer for Peace in 1986 held in Assisi, Italy. In the spirit of Assisi, the Religious Summit Meeting on Mount Hiei was held the following year. As an advisor to the executive committee of the Interreligious Gathering of Prayer for World Peace, President Niwano offered words of welcome to Archbishop Celata. He expressed his intention to promote further cooperation between Religions for Peace Japan and PCID.
Ven. Sugitani mentioned the long-term exchanges between the Vatican and Japanese religious leaders and explained the present situation of interreligious cooperation in Japan. He said that interreligious exchanges in Japan, including with the Roman Catholic Church, had moved from dialogue to action.
Archbishop Celata emphasized the Vatican's policy of promoting interreligious dialogue, with the Vatican's senior leaders and local Catholic churches taking the lead. He said genuine dialogue should be inspired by religious faith and transcend legal, political, economic, and cultural considerations.

FOSDEM: Enterprise Linux for all, thanks to Centos
Dag Wieers of Project Centos made a passionate plea for more private users to turn to the free Red Hat Enterprise clone, and stressed that commercial companies with non-critical machines could also benefit from Centos.
The foundation of his argument lies in the difference between a stable Enterprise Linux and a modifiable community version. "Everyone should use Enterprise Linux," said Wieers, "not just companies." The Centos project distribution stems from the GPL licensed source texts of Red Hat's Enterprise software.
Wieers explained that while private users who, for example, administer their friends and relatives PCs, are more interested in simple maintenance, this for Wieers does not require a constant updating of the distro. Further, other private users are not helped when a chic-looking distribution tempts them to take the Linux plunge, only to be overwhelmed by a complicated system and then return to Windows with technological tails between their legs. With, Centos, all would benefit from a stable RHEL package, said Wieers.
After his speech, Wieers went on to tell Linux Magazine Online that even commercial companies with non-critical machines do not necessarily need Red Hat support. He admitted that initially, relations with Red Hat were not the easiest. This has changed, he said, with Red Hat more laid back about users, both private and those with a limited corporate agenda, using Centos, with Red Hat concentrating on corporations and larger companies, and the Centos community providing support for their own users. Wieers added that in any case, firms running critical setups are better off with Red Hat support.
Dag Wieers is a consultant who, even before the creation of Fedora, developed Red Hat packages in his spare time. His reason for not joining Fedora, he told Linux Magazine, was a lack of enthusiasm for quick release cycles.

Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
I've worked closely with -- Republicans as well as Democrats to advance an agenda of economic growth fiscal discipline and job creation.
I'm proud to stand with a man who understands what it takes to Foster job creation in our economy.
Someone who knows from experience.
That if you had a small business you did build that.
But -- -- -- as governor Mitt Romney announce his running mate and Republicans are already rallying around congressman Paul Ryan they say in a house budget -- reinforces the campaign's message that big government is ruining America so what does -- Tea Party think of governor around respect Tea Party express chair Amy Cramer joins us from the great state of Wisconsin.
-- so what's -- acted like this choice or not.
I do like -- -- I think it's a great choice I think it's a risky choice but.
You know to gain anything in life you have to risk something and then with a big risk comes a big gain.
But I think America's ready for we need somebody -- will want to step up to the plate and make these old.
Top hard decisions that need to be made.
And Paul Ryan is -- -- to do that and I think what this shows is eight it's gonna give the grassroots a little bit more confidence in the Romney campaign.
And Romney team that he is serious about buckling down.
And getting down to business.
Amy -- I'm curious what you think.
I know the button that -- -- budget is but congressman Paul Ryan voted yes for the auto bailout he voted yes for TARP.
Yes for the prescription drug bill -- and President Bush 43 any voted yes to.
Stimulus in 08 he did vote -- to present Obama stimulus in 09.
But all those other things he voted yes does that in any way have an impact on your thinking because that is not survey what I think it was a typical.
Tea Party set of votes.
Well -- we're -- different climate now and I think there are many votes have been that have been casting converse that people wish they could take back.
Part of the reason this whole movement is here is because of those votes that were cast.
But he has shown that he's ready to get down to business he's willing to -- take on the entitlements.
And we all know that our -- our budget cannot be balanced just dealing with discretionary spending.
And nobody is willing to step up to the plate and do that because they're all afraid they're gonna lose their reelection.
But Paul Ryan understands that we have to deal -- those entitlement programs Medicare sat.
Released that report last year the board of trustees that said if Medicare was not reform by 20/20 four it would be bankrupt.
Well here we are we continue to kick the can down the road and you have heard -- -- campaign and the administration say and that Medicare as we know what's gonna end under Paul Ryan.
Well Medicare as we know what ended it with the passage of obamacare when they reallocate its 700 billion dollars to cover the the Medicaid.
So Medicare as we know it has ended.
And the thing about Paul Ryan is that the numbers don't why you can't -- the numbers you can't politicized the numbers it's not going to be easy.
But I think Americans want to know the truth they know that things -- not better than they were four years ago and we have to make some serious changes.
And a one quick question I'd would you like -- -- governor Sarah -- speaking at the Republican Convention or is that not an issue for him.
I absolutely would I mean I've said -- time and time again that.
There's no one that excites the base and energizes the base -- the Governor Palin does she has a lot of supporters across this country.
And I think that the party and the Romney campaign need this grassroots movement more and that -- we need them it's gonna take all of us.

That is until the year he left for university. There he met friends and from them learned a bit of a bad language which he tries to stop himself. Pond always had a thing for any kind of TV show, when doctor who came back that stuck to him. He always wished he could travel in space and go anywhere. He believed in magic, what kind was not him to complain about.
