DUNGEON DEGENERATES - HAND OF DOOM Fantasy Board Game
RETRO ROLE PLAYING GAME FEEL IN A COOPERATIVE DARK FANTASY BOARD GAME! DUNGEON DEGENERATES - HAND OF DOOM is a fantasy adventure board game from GOBLINKO. Blending a Dark & Dirty Old School role playing game aesthetic with an easy to learn, fast-moving & engaging board game system, DUNGEON DEGENERATES delivers the dark fantasy adventure you want, when you want it. Players choose between four adventuring Degenerates who have been imprisoned for various crimes of survival. As they make their way out of Brüttelberg into the decaying Eastern provinces of the Würstreich they must take on strange & dangerous adventures & fighting against the corruption & decadence that have set into the land. Monsters, cultists, witches, demons & wizards have taken advantage of the rot & are encroaching on civilization. As if that wasn't enough, the Necromancer's Hand of Doom points down on the land & disrupts the natural order with Hellish resolve.
IN A LAND WHERE ROT RULES, ONLY THE DEGENERATES SURVIVE! The Würstreich - an Empire in decline, where survival is an adventure unto itself. Once the pinnacle of human civilization, it now teeters on the brink of Total Doom, having collapsed into corruption, decadence, decay & madness. Evil Wizards pervert the very fabric of nature, bringing gibbering madness from beyond screaming into absolution & an endless menagerie of monsters fight for domination! In chaos - there is opportunity! The fecund stench of the Rotten Realm of the Würstreich beckons! Having escaped from the moldy dungeons of Brüttelberg, your Degenerate Adventurers must use wits & weapons to find their fortune in the monster & madness infested badlands - fate decided by the luck of the draw & the roll of the dice! In a land where rot rules, only the Degenerates survive!

BOLD, LOW-BROW, RETRO ROLE-PLAYING WEIRDO ART! The DUNGEON DEGENERATES aesthetic is culled from an enormous heap of yellowing paper, old Dragon & White Dwarf magazines, Underground Comix artists like Robert Crumb & S. Clay Wilson, blacklight posters, Conan the Barbarian comics, pinball art, Punk & Metal zines & Heavy Metal records, pickled in cider & smoked. Sean Äaberg has been devoted to pushing older Weirdo Art forms back into the public consciousness for a decade, teaching art & publishing PORK Magazine. DUNGEON DEGENERATES is lavishly illustrated with thousands of drawings by Sean Äaberg.
Play along with our game designer Eric as he takes you on a DUNGEON DEGENERATES - HAND OF DOOM adventure in our Kickstarter updates! You decide!
There's nothing to eat in the filthy town of Pigskin Port. The curse of the Rye Wizard has blighted the grain & the pigs are infected with a poisonous fungus. Out here on the edge of the Würstreich, you don't have anywhere else to run. You've escaped your life as a slave in the fighting pits of Brüttelberg & now you find yourself working for the River Rats. Wally Whisker offered you gold to find a shipment of his that hasn't arrived on schedule, but you have a feeling the easy money is in the monster meat trade. The River Rats are selling sausages to travellers at a premium & they just need a tough brawler like yourself to head into the Wasteland & haul back a few goblins for processing.
Your travelling companion is a thin & scruffy Alchemist who claims to be a veteran of half a dozen military campaigns, but reeks of black powder & alcohol. He introduces you to a contact of his - a shifty-looking woman with a strange collection of objects for sale. The prize of her collection is an ornate box containing the severed head of a soothsayer, preserved by some obscure ritual means. She explains that, when anointed with a certain tincture it will come to life & offer guidance. You tell her that the leather gauntlet wreathed in spikes strapped to your right arm is the only help you will need, & besides you clearly cannot afford such an object. The Alchemist purchases a vial of some noxious substance that he claims is genuine daemon's blood. The smell of it burns your nostrils & eyes, so you believe him when he claims it can burn through almost anything.

They know that the old ways are best & they are going to drain enough blood to bring them back with DUNGEON DEGENERATES!
Risks and challenges
While this is the first board game published by GOBLINKO, we have been publishing magazines & comics since 1999 & have never missed a deadline or failed to deliver a product on time. We have been running a busy webshop with mail order fulfillment since 2012 & we know how to handle getting our products into our customers' hands. We understand the complexities of taking on a project of this scale & have budgeted enough time into our project timeline to complete all necessary tasks & our conservative estimates allow for errors to be caught & corrected without causing project delays. All aspects of game design, development & artwork are being handled in-house by our team. We have completed writing, art & design stages & have moved to the play testing & refining stage of the project. Our estimated date of delivery is August 2017.
Of course, with any project of this scale, sometimes things go wrong. We believe in project transparency, & keeping our backers updated with the project no matter what. If something does happen that causes a delay with the project, we will notify backers immediately. Possible delays could include:
- A problem at the factory could delay printing of some of the games
- We could face unforeseen shipping issues
Also, due to shipping logistics, backers from different parts of the world may receive their packages at different dates than others.

NEW PORT RICHEY — A 61-year-old caregiver was arrested Thursday in West Virginia after a federal investigation said she swindled funds from an 80-year-old woman, who is deaf and legally blind.
A federal indictment says Rebecca Moody, formerly of New Port Richey, falsely obtained power of attorney over the woman, and used that to get a fraudulent mortgage loan on the victim's residence, without the victim's knowledge. The indictment also claims Moody stole other funds from the victim, who also lived in New Port Richey.
The case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Pasco County Sheriff's Office.
Moody was charged with one count of wire fraud and one count of transportation of stolen property in connection with a mortgage and other accounts belonging to the victim, according to the U.S. Department of Justice. If convicted, she faces up to 30 years in prison.

Minister accused of intimidating media covering Malaysian crime rate
Malaysia's home affairs minister has been recorded by a local media outlet threatening it with shutdown and stopping its reporter from asking probing questions.
Online news portal Malaysiakini has carried footage of Zahid Hamidi being asked by one reporter about missing police weapons and equipment against the backdrop of an increasing national crime rate.
The minister's response was to threaten to shut down publications which report on closed-door briefings.
"This is a closed-door session please, don't write anything, don't take any photograph of me and the crowd, I do not allow it," he said in a video available on the Malaysiakini website and YouTube.
In Bahasa Melayu, the minister then says he would shut down any Malay, English, Chinese or Tamil papers with news reports of his words.
Malaysiakini assistant chief editor RK Anand has told Radio Australia's Asia Pacific program the questions posed by the reporter were legitimate and the minister's conduct was unbecoming of a senior member of the government.
"It concerns a very important issue, the missing of firearms, police vehicles, handcuffs, and the police chief came under intense criticism when he mentioned that the firearms could have fallen into the sea," Mr Anand said.
"We were hoping that the home minister could shed some light on this matter.
"However, he chose to turn the spotlight on our journalists instead, and then went on a tirade against Malaysiakini, accusing it of spinning and distorting his statements."
Mr Anand says Mr Hamidi's outburst against a journalist, who is appropriately conducting his work, displays arrogance.
He says even though it could be read as a jovial moment, this form of response is not uncommon.
"This is not the first time that we've encountered these kind of problems," he said.
"Ministers especially, I mean those politicians from the ruling coalition have always resorted to... 'jokingly' reprimanding us, or even preventing us from asking questions of national importance.
"I think this is very unbecoming, it stops us from reporting the truth and keeping the Malaysian public informed on issues of such importance."
On Monday, the Chinese Newspaper Editors Association urged the minister to retract his threat to close down newspapers.
Radio Australia has sought a response from the Malaysian government but has yet to receive one.

Car shows are different in Tijuana
"You do not have to babysit the people from leaning or touching the cars."
Mike Madriaga 2:30 p.m., Sept. 19
(Page 2 of 2)
In the copy of SLINGSHOT Morrison dropped off for me was a piece he thought I might like (it turned out he had, in fact, read something of mine that included a description of my back porch office). The headline was "LIVE SMALL: Economic Growth Expands Into World Mess, By PB [sic] Floyd."
It began: "Living small… the opposite of always wanting more. For people in developed countries with access to incredible material abundance, living small means using less resources, less space, and having less stuff than we perhaps could have. It can mean practicing voluntary simplicity that emphasizes free time, community, engagement, meaningfulness, stillness…not necessarily achievement, status, and constant activity." The piece went on at some length, a socioeconomic essay that included some ecology, psychology, and other issues, but it kept coming back — or at least I did — to the phrase "figuring out what is enough." The question was, and is: enough of what? The Friendship Hotel falls short of my living needs in only one area — well, after elbow room for guests, spotty Wi-Fi access, and the inadvisability of playing amplified guitar — and that is enough space for my books.
It has been an extremely convenient location. Within a few short blocks are Chipotle Mexican restaurant — no lard, and if not cheap, neither is it unreasonable — Whole Foods, Ralphs, Kinko's (very handy for me), and several main bus routes that can be accessed a half-block away. If this reads like a recommendation in a travel guide, something like "San Diego on $60 a Day," if that's possible, so be it. If nothing else, it may serve to counterbalance an Internet site about the Friendship titled "Horror on Eighth Ave," in which someone bemoans the lack of luxuries. Parking in the hotel lot is one (approximately $40 per week, but neighbors I'd spoken with had no complaints about finding spots within one or two hundred feet; laundry facilities were less than ten feet from my door).
During the summer of 2008, another man I knew moved into the hotel from New York. Rick Ortiz, a 56-year-old ex-amateur/Silver Gloves boxer, radio personality in Chicago, professional cook (his Puerto Rican cooking would indicate chef), and substance-abuse counselor (at Donovan State Prison, for one), checked in to write his book, tentatively titled Heroin Chronicles, about the effects of the Harrison Act in 1914. Part novel-like memoir and part persuasive document indicting the failed war on drugs, he chose this place to work. Although we had known each other elsewhere, it was, coincidentally enough, or preciously if you like, the Friendship Hotel where we became friends.
I paid $253.13 every week for my air-conditioned room with sundeck, bathroom, atmosphere, and whatever ghosts might have forgotten to check out. I think that's the high end there. The Friendship is not to be confused with the Marriott or even Motel 6.
The Friendship has been officially declared "Historic, a 'Landmark' in San Diego," Tim Winterstein, an employee and maintenance worker at the Friendship, told me. The neighbors apparently were unamused by this, the idea being that less than celebrity/wealthy musicians, writers, and artists were undesirable in their backyards, to say nothing of the fixed-income folk and/or disabled, often less-than-glamorous guests of the hotel. I include myself here, though my income is maddeningly unfixed.
Hillcrest neighbors may take comfort in the Friendship's policy of insisting that guests check out every 28 days for 24 hours. This may be inconvenient for some, but the idea is that the hotel is not a residential hotel, technically, and this policy goes some distance in preventing court disputes with those claiming long-term tenancy.
As for a detailed history of this landmark, that may have to wait for a book, and it would likely be one worth reading.

Local Rule 105 provides the simple and straightforward response to plaintiffs' motion to have two lawyers from their side examine each of Microsoft's witnesses. That rule states that "[e]xcept by permission of the Court only one attorney on each side shall examine a witness, address the Court on a question arising in a trial, or address the Court or jury in final argument" (emphasis added). Plaintiffs do not dispute that Local Rule 105 is controlling. In fact, they cite the rule in their memorandum as authority for the proposition that "a federal district court enjoys great discretion to manage the trial." (See Pls.' Mem. at 6 & n.2).
Consistent with Local Rulel05, the Court ruled at the final pretrial conference on October 9, 1998 that only one lawyer on each side should examine a witness: "I agree. I think that it should be one lawyer per witness." (10/9/98 Tr. at 13.) Rather than identify a compelling reason to depart from the traditional "one-lawyer-one-witness" rule, plaintiffs devote the lion's share of their memorandum to advancing the unremarkable propositions that consolidation does not merge two cases into a single action and that cross-examination is a fundamental aspect of our judicial process. (See Pls.' Mem. at 3-8.) Both propositions are entirely beside the point. They are not grounds for the Court to revisit its ruling at the pretrial conference, nor do they justify a departure from the clear import of Local Rule 105.
Although plaintiffs pay lip service to the notion that their interests are not identical (see Pls.' Mem. at 8-9), they fail to identify a single respect in which their interests diverge in any meaningful manner. Plaintiffs do not claim that there is a potential conflict of interest between the Department of Justice and the States. Nor do they assert that counsel for plaintiffs have been unable to work together harmoniously. To the contrary, plaintiffs acknowledge that counsel "in both actions have cooperated and worked closely together." (Pls.' Mem. at 8.)
Plaintiffs also do not seriously contend that the claims asserted by the Department of Justice and the States differ in any substantive respect. Plaintiffs simply point out that "the pendent state law claims asserted by Plaintiff States may permit additional relief and that, "if they prevail, Plaintiff States, unlike the United States, are entitled to attorney's fees." (Pls.' Mem. at 9.) Plaintiffs fail to explain, however, why those two supposed differences necessitate "supplemental" cross-examination or require that "all Plaintiffs" be permitted "to adduce evidence they believe important to the development of their respective cases." (Pls.' Mem. at 9.) There may be "differences between the parties" (Pls.' Mem. at 9), but none that requires separate cross-examination in contravention of Local Rule 105.
Plaintiffs also note that Microsoft has asserted counterclaims against the States. (Pls.'s Mem. at 8.) Plaintiffs do not contend, however, that those counterclaims raise any issues different from those raised by plaintiffs' complaints. Indeed, the States took the exact opposite position in their answer to Microsoft's counterclaims, asserting the following defense: "The Counterclaim is not appropriately before this Court because any issue raised therein is implicated by the Sixth and Seventh Affirmative Defenses which Microsoft has already asserted in this action." (Counterclaim-Defendant States' Answer to Microsoft Corporation's Counterclaim at 6.) While Microsoft obviously disagrees with that legal assertion, the States are estopped from taking a contrary position now.
Finally, the history of this litigation belies plaintiffs' assertion that their interests differ in any meaningful respect. The States amended their original complaint on July 17, 1998 to eliminate their purported claim regarding Microsoft Office, which the Department of Justice had not alleged. The Court then granted Microsoft summary judgment on the States' monopoly leveraging claim, thus eliminating the only other claim alleged by the States but not by the Department of Justice. In addition, lawyers from the Department of Justice have taken the lead in nearly every deposition taken in this action. In fact, representatives of the States did not ask a single question in 46 depositions, and they did not even attend an additional 25 depositions. For plaintiffs now to claim that "supplemental" cross-examination is necessary to "protect all parties' rights" and "develop a fair and accurate trial record" is disingenuous to say the least. (Pls.' Mem. at 10.)
For the foregoing reasons, the Court should deny plaintiffs' joint motion to permit "supplemental" cross-examination.
I hereby certify that on this 3rd day of December, 1998, I caused a true and correct copy of the foregoing Defendant Microsoft Corporation's Memorandum in Opposition to Plaintiffs' Joint Motion to Permit Limited Supplemental Cross-Examination to be served by facsimile and hand upon:
Phillip R. Malone, Esq.
Stephen D. Houck, Esq.
And by facsimile and overnight carrier upon:
Christine Rosso, Esq.
I hereby certify that on this 16th day of June, 2000, I served a copy of the foregoing Plaintiffs' Joint Reply On Their Motions For Summary Dismissal Of Microsoft's Motion For Leave To File A Motion For Stay Pending Appeal On The Ground That It Is Premature, Or To Defer Consideration Pending A Determination As To Jurisdiction, by Federal Express next-day delivery upon the following:
John Warden, Esquire (additionally served by facsimile)

We love partnering on projects that support a good cause. Whether it's supporting an environmental initiative, helping improve healthcare navigation, or celebrating women in tech - we love the opportunity to facilitate the use of design for positive change.
One of our most recent partnerships is Dream Icons: a collection of icons that raises money for Fundacja Mam Marzenie (in Eng.: I Have a Dream Foundation). Mam Marzenie is a Polish charity that helps make dreams come true for children living with life-threatening illnesses.
Dream Icons was imagined and executed by Wojciech Zasina, Michał Jawiński, Michał Strączek, Anna Osińska and Maciej Czembrowski. We interviewed the creators to learn about what inspired them to use design as a force for good.
Noun Project: It appears that Dream Icons is a very collaborative effort. How many people are working on this project?
Wojciech Zasina: There are five people working on Dream Icons. Our team includes a copywriter, web designer, web developer, animator and me as a project manager and icon designer. The story of our team is quite interesting. After I got the idea to create this project, I started to call friends to see if they were interested in collaborating. I collected three people in one day. After a week another person was on board. We all come from different cities mostly located in Poland, except for our copywriter, Anna, who lives in Paris. I know everyone well but we've never met in person as a whole group. The whole collaboration existed via email, calls on Skype and so on.
NP: What inspired the idea for the Dream Icons collection?
WZ: I love creating icons. I've created a lot of icon sets for my clients and published some of them free for download. For example, I created the In The Hospital set with a friend of mine, Michael. We really enjoyed this project and wanted to collaborate again. He's an animator and I'm an icon designer. Our goal was to connect these talents providing a good quality design project.
I also started to think about engagement with a charity. Why not sell icons that provide profit to someone who needs it? I did research, found a Mam Marzenie (Eng. I Got a Dream) Foundation, and started to make the idea real.
There are many different projects that support charities. Artists sell their work and donate the proceeds. Musicians play charity concerts. But what about designers? There was a gap to fill.
The Foundation I found is a Polish organization that aims to make dreams come true for kids suffering from life-threatening illnesses. It brings a positive change and enriches the lives of kids. Since 2004, 5765 dreams have been realized.That was the biggest inspiration. There are people making other people smile. I wanted to be the part of that.
NP: What was your process for choosing which icons to create? Did the children from the foundation influence your decision?
WZ: Sure they did, but not directly. We started to browse the foundation website where childrens' dreams are listed and we also asked our friends about their dreams. We gathered a list of around 400 dreams and realized there are four kinds of dreams: non-material dreams – wishing for friends, a happy family, a home and peace; material dreams – like wanting a new computer or skateboard; dreams of travel – mostly to the capital cities in Europe; and impossible dreams – like wishing for the ability to fly. We used this research to create the icons that inspired us the most.
NP: What influenced the style of these particular icons?
WZ: I really like line-style icons and I've always enjoy making them. One of my passions is creating simple shapes using just a few lines. There are some obstacles you need to think about when creating icons in such a style. The thickness of lines should be considered. They have to be legible at a small size. Even the specific angles you use make a difference.
NP: What design constraints did you use to keep the collection consistent?
WZ: There is always the challenge of creating icons that display well on any kind of device or print. Another challenge was the variety of topics we wanted to represent. It's quite difficult to create a consistent scheme for a set that includes small stuff (like a smartphone and watch), bigger objects (like a car or piano), as well as activities (like surfing and paragliding). After I decided which angles to use, the thickness of lines, and which grid to follow, it was easier to continue making the entire collection.
NP: What was the biggest challenge you faced with this project?
WZ: There were definitely many challenges we met.
Michał Jawiński: The challenge that I enjoyed the most while working on the animation was finding similar construction elements in each icon and then adapting them into smooth transitions. We decided that the beginning of animation would show icons related to the non-material things such as friendship, love, family etc. Then the animation transitions to represent dreams of material things (treehouse, rocking horse, guitar, etc.) and then transitions back into showing non-material dreams at the end. That process illustrates what we are dreaming about when we walk through our lives and what values are the most important for us.
Michał Strączek: I'm not sure it was the biggest challenge for me, but when creating our website I was mostly focused on achieving one specific goal. Our goal was to focus on promoting the icons. If you like the icons and they seem useful, then you can buy the set. The result is we provide profits to children. We definitely didn't want to promote the project as a machine to collect money by showing touching children photos everywhere.
WZ: For me the challenge was somewhere else. Definitely not in the icon set creation. That was the easy part. I needed to manage the project fully online in cooperation with people from different locations, including The Noun Project, which is over 8000 km. It was not easy but I really enjoyed it.

North Texas Boy Killed in Motorbike Accident
A young boy was killed in a motorbike accident that happened in North Texas.
Details about the Fatal Motor Bike Accident
Multiple sources are reporting that, according to police, an 11-year-old boy was killed after the small motorbike he was driving hit a brick mailbox in a neighborhood in North Texas.
The Arlington Police Department has not immediately released the name of the child who was killed in the accident. Officers have stated that they responded to a report about a motorbike accident that happened in a neighborhood on Tuesday evening.
At this time, police believe that the boy apparently had lost control of the motorbike right before the accident, causing him to crash into the brick mailbox. The boy was taken to the hospital where he was pronounced dead.
Another young girl was also transported to the hospital for an ankle injury, but it is unclear at this time whether or not she was somehow involved in the accident.
Important Information about Child Accidents
According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, there are thousands of wrongful deaths of people involved in motor vehicle accidents every year in the United States:
- In 2014, there were a total of 872 children under the age of 13 who were killed in motor vehicle accidents in the United States.
- The rate for motor vehicle accident fatalities was higher for males than it was for females in 2014.

I went here last Friday, last Saturday and yesterday which makes it 3 times in almost one week!
A friend recommended this place for a gals night out. I was pleasantly surprised at the food, decor and service. They have a live band on Fridays and weekends. The food was great.
To start off with I had coconut shrimp all 3 times. You get 4 shrimp, battered with real coconut and served with a peach sauce and a spicy Thai sauce. I have tried coconut shrimp at other restaurants and most of the time they coat it with a flour batter that has a little bit of coconut in it and am usually disappointed. I then had the following main courses: stuffed shrimp (the first time) and the catfish (the second time). They were good-sized portions and came with rice and veggies. The stuffed shrimp dish contained 4 jumbo shrimp stuffed with a spicy mixture of crab and shrimp and baked with cheese. I loved it! The catfish that I had was the best catfish I have had so far. It was not overcooked, was spicy and came with a great tomato salsa. When I went yesterday (3rd time) I had the coconut shrimp, again, and the stuffed squid (appetizer portion). The squid was o.k. There were 3 small pieces of whole squid stuffed with a mixture of spices and cheese and baked with a spicy tomato sauce. My friend had Cajun dusted chicken wings and raved about them as she was full after her first appetizer but couldn't stop eating the wings. She polished off her plate. Another friend had the catfish and polished off her plate. A friend, who is vegetarian, joined us and had the veggie pizza. She said it was good and I agree as I tried a piece. It was loaded with fresh veggies and not a lot of cheese.
I would definitely recommend this place. This is the first time I have been to the same restaurant 3 times in 6 days. I can't wait to go back again on their patio to have some Gin & Tonics and their coconut shrimp! MMMMMM!

In the event, I'd be dining out on Easter anyway, it being the only evening during a week-long stay in the Bay Area that my friend Anne and her daughter Nora could arrange a meal with Gary, Cathy, and their son Greg. And me, although I was leaving the choice of restaurant up to Gary, an uncharacteristic pleasure. He's often e-mailed me with news of enticing places that I don't get around to trying right away because, I remind him, I write for a paper with "S.F." in the name.
But we got a distress call early on Sunday from Gary: Every place he'd tried was either closed or already fully booked. Did I have any ideas? I did, and they were all in San Francisco. And that's how the six of us ended up on Nob Hill on Easter Sunday.
Anne and Nora didn't know how lucky we were to find a parking place just a couple of blocks away. As we walked down Jackson in the rain, I was thrilled to see Rue Saint Jacques (its name an aural pun) emerge from the mist like a Parisian mirage. Everything about the place, its big windows glowing softly through the gray fog, seemed Gallic, right down to the placard on the sidewalk advertising a three-course prix fixe for, mirabile dictu, $25.
Inside, the big room felt both sophisticated and rustic, its rough stucco walls painted a peachy beige, hung with big mirrors and a few pieces of indistinct art. More distinctive was the pitched beamed ceiling and the wine cave visible through glass in the rear wall. The soundtrack was a mix tape of wispy French techno and Edith Piaf. We were seated at a large rectangular table in the middle of the room; there were couples ensconced at tables for two along the black banquette that lines the long wall, and families scattered about.
I was surprised at the number of dishes on the one-page menu: 16 appetizers and more than a dozen main courses. We also got a sheet with the nightly specials: two additional starters and two more main courses. I relaxed: Even though I always choose last, after my guests, there were so many dishes that aroused my interest that I had no fear I wouldn't be able to suit my hunger. Cathy selected first, in honor of her birthday, which was that night, though it had been celebrated en famille in Napa the night before. I was a little worried that my goddaughter Nora, who'd been eating a vegan diet for Lent, would have to settle for one of only two dishes labeled "vegetarian" on the menu mushroom risotto and sautéed barley with seasonal vegetables which seemed too similar to me to make for an enticing choice. (There were several salads, but most came with flesh of some kind: beets with anchovies, mâche with Serrano ham.) But when we learned that the soup of the day was cream of potato and leek, her choice was made. The dairy sent up an alarm in my mind, but on Easter she was allowed, it appeared, to reintroduce the forbidden ingredients.
The only thing wrong with the potato and leek soup, according to Nora, was that it was too rich; I thought it was just pure-cream deliciousness, though it improved with a sprinkle of salt. My favorite starters were indeed the richest, and all from the school of charcuterie: an impeccable foie gras terrine, a thick slice sided with a couple of preserved kumquats, sweet and sharp, intended to cut the fattiness but inadequate to the task; a more decadent foie gras en brioche, a special that night, the same pâte baked in buttery bread; and a somewhat lighter rabbit terrine, an even more generous slice than the foie gras, slightly rough-textured (sophisticated yet rustic, like the room) and served with a pile of cornichons. Almost as rich was the risotto of Point Reyes oysters, big mollusks (I thought they'd be smaller) whose flavor and texture I found overwhelming; they were easier to take in the bright-tasting, oddly named frisee of oyster seviche, which turned out to be a frisee salad dressed with the vinaigrette that cooks the oysters in seviche. I would also have been happy to try the braised escargots with Catalan sausage, the tartare of filet mignon, the unusual brandade of scallops, but six starters was plenty.
I liked the main courses even more: a chunk of nicely roasted, firm monkfish in a red wine sauce called a port beurre rouge; halibut, similarly roasted, in tomato garlic sauce with sautéed fennel; a shapely round of the rarely seen crabe Parmentier, another nightly special, layers of mashed potatoes, sauteed spring vegetables, and Dungeness crab flakes, gratineed with cheese ("Something like a shepherd's pie made with crab," I explained to its teenage orderer). I was pleased that I could still taste the crab in the cheesy forkful I tried. My favorites were the barely solidified soft lumps of veal cheeks cooked en casserole with aromatic diced vegetables, served on a pillowy bed of mashed potatoes, and the cassoulet, served in a cast-iron skillet placed upon two bricks set down right on the snowy tablecloth. The pan was filled to the brim with toothy white beans, the duck confit, lamb confit, chunks of sausages, and boudin blanc mentioned on the menu, and an extra treat, a flat slice of bacon draped over the whole, blessing the dish with an extra melting fillip of pork fat. Yum. There was more than enough for two people. Only the sautéed barley, with artichokes, mushrooms, and fennel, got a "bland" assessment from one taster, though Nora was OK with it. The kitchen had gone a little artichoke-nutty: Nearly every dish (save the charcuterie, the soup, and the cassoulet) was garnished with them, but 'tis the season, and they were so carefully trimmed and so delightful to the taste that I was happy to see them. (Our server lamented the fact that nobody in the room ordered the confit of rabbit in black olive sauce, despite the holiday but didn't our rabbit terrine count?)
Dessert wasn't up to the standard of the first two courses. Oddly, in a place unafraid of richness, the ile flottant (egg white meringue) came on a thin strawberry soup rather than the customary crème anglaise; the tarte tatin was mushy and overcooked; the warm chocolate cake a touch dry and a little boring. An unusual-sounding mocha and kumquat napoleon was heavy, candylike, dullish. I found myself wishing I'd gone for the cheese plate, which that night was Petit Basque, Camembert, Roquefort, and St. Andre. But we exited, well fed, into the cool night, fresh-smelling after the rain, delighted by our French meal and jolted by the passing Hyde Street cable car back to San Francisco. Two saints on one holy night.

Splashtop Remote-Control App Connects Apples to Apples
Splashtop now connects Apple products to Apple products via its remote-control software, the company said Thursday.
Splashtop, which previously released a version for the iPhone as well as Android, now has released a version for the Mac OS. The app is currently being sold in the iTunes App store for $1.99.
Although a number of remote-control apps allow a user to remotely connect to a PC, the appeal of Splashtop's app is its convenience and its ability to play back sound and video over the network. Although Mac users can manually install a Flash plug-in, for example, the company has pitched the app's ability to play back Flash-based video over the network as a selling point.
"We actually beat out Angry Birds in a few markets before they launched their Halloween edition," Sergei Krupenin, senior director of marketing, said in a press conference at the MacWorld conference here on Thursday.
With the update, owners of the an iOS device, such as an iPad or iPhone, can now connect to either an iMac, Mac Pro, MacBook Pro and Air and Mac Mini on the back end - as well as Windows machines, which were previously supported. Files can't be dragged and dropped between machines, but Krupenin noted that users can use the Web to email them, or to use a service like Dropbox to transfer them between devices.
What's in store for the future? Better performance over Wi-Fi, as well as better security, Krupenin said - currently, the app uses a PIN, as opposed to a more traditional username/password setup.
Moreover, Krupenin said that the company hopes to develop the interface, especially in regards to gaming. Users can use a series of gestures to approximate mouse button presses and other functions. But the app still doesn't handle certain simultaneous actions well, Krupenin said, such as two simultaneous keypresses.
Editor's Note: This story has been corrected to correctly state the devices the Splashtop software connects on the front and back end.

text: 2 Nicholas officials support valley fills By Susan Williams October 31, 1998 Story Share If coal companies must stop using such mining methods as mountaintop removal and valley fills, a Nicholas County Commissioner said Friday, he wants to see airport construction, highway construction and superstore construction stopped, too.Earlier this month, Spurgeon Hinkle and Commissioner Birl O'Dell signed a resolution supporting Alex Energy Inc. Commissioner Tom Blankenship did not sign the resolution.At a commission meeting, Sam Kitts, president of Nicholas Energy, a subsidiary of A.T. Massey Coal Co., explained to commissioners that he wants to mine 1,200 acres outside Gilboa, along W.Va. 39, through another company called Alex Energy.For now, though, the staff of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has issued a general objection to the water permit for the operation."All I want is to look and be fair," Hinkle said.The resolution states the commissioners will let the governor and the appropriate regulating agencies know that they support the mines.Hinkle said the coal company is willing to invest $90 million in the operation without asking for state funds. He pointed out that many other projects involving mountaintop removal and valley fills have included taxpayer dollars.The mine would also employ more than 200 miners, he said.Hinkle also spoke in Logan County a week ago in support of mountaintop removal."I'm on record," he said. "The facts of the matter being that the mining industry is our state's biggest tax revenue, and counties continually reap the benefits each time they receive partnership grants or grants from the Legislative Digest," Hinkle said at the Logan County rally.Construction of Yeager Airport in Charleston was one of the largest mountaintop removal and valley fill projects of its kind when it was built, he said.He also said construction along U.S. 19 produced a valley fill up to 100 feet deep and 4,428 feet long at Powells Mountain.The site that Kitts wants to work was mined previously for 10 years, and it is in an isolated area, Hinkle said. Commissioner O'Dell, who signed the resolution, and Commissioner Blankenship, who did not sign, could not be reached for comment.A.T. Massey officials have offered the Nicholas County Commission the property, totaling 1,200 to 1,500 acres, for future county use once the mining project is finished.The valley fill would affect two streams, Robinson Fork and Spruce Run.The company's plans call for 1,805 acres of valley fill to cover 4 miles of stream."It's not as detrimental as environmentalists will tell you," Hinkle said. To contact staff writer Susan Williams, call 779-9367.

Dear Doctors, I am 40 yo male, asian, thin and tall. Due to unusual skull structure have a double chin which adds visually a few years to my real age. Please advise if the double chin liposuction will help me to look better. Thank you in advance.
Will Double Chin Lipo Help Me? (photo)
Doctor Answers 8
Fatty deposits in the neck
The pictures show a very unnatural pose and it is difficult to get a accurate determination of the amount of fat present in the neck. There is the presence of sub-platysmal fat as well as sub-mental fat, and both types of fat must be removed to address a full neck rejuvenation. Simple liposuction will not remove the sub-platysmal fat and patient's will have residual fatty deposits present and a poor jaw neck angle. Please see the link below for examples similar to your own neck

Liposuction of the neck is a simple procedure performed under local anesthesia.
In a 40-year-old male with fullness of the neck most likely this is the product of excess fat. That appears to be the case in the photograph. Liposuction performed under local anesthesia should give an excellent result.

Will Double Chin Liposuction Help
The liposuction by itself will probably not give you the result you want due to skin laxity and other anatomic constraints. Sometimes a neck lift is needed to address subplatysmal fat, muscle laxity and skin laxity. An exam would be necessary to say definitively. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Liposuction for double chin
From your pictures, it's difficult to tell if you are a candidate for liposuction of the neck or not. I think you would need to be examined in person to tell for sure. Normally, everyone can make themselves have a double chin when they push their chin down and back. This does not mean that liposuction would be helpful. A picture like your last one with your chin horizontal but not tilted up might be helpful (without your chin pushed back).

Submental Smartlipo
Thank you for posting a picture. It looks as if you would be an ideal candidate for Submental Smartlipo. This procedure will remove unwanted fat deposits while tightening the skin; it will give you a full jawline contour. Good luck in your decision!
Chin and neck liposucton for a double chin
Chin and neck liposuction can correct excess fat. I would combine the procedure with some skin tightening lasers to improve skin texture and laxity.

Chin liposuction or "Submental liposuction" can help define your neckline
If your skin is not too loose liposuction can help. With a proper exam a plastic surgeon can tell you if liposuction is enough or if you will need liposuction with a limited neck lift.

Having taken a look at alternative resorts in the last couple of weeks, with Austria and Italy, I thought I'd take a look at where to enjoy a luxury ski holiday next.
Luxury ski holidays can mean something different to all of us, for some it's sitting in one of Chardon Mountain Lodges chalets in Val d'Isere, enjoying fabulous food and Perrier Jouët on tap, for others it's about staying in one of Courchevel 1850's exclusive hotels, or enjoying the champagne ice-bars that accompany the après ski scene in Lech.
Luxury skiing is also about the resort you stay in, the mountain you ski and, of course, where to eat, drink and shop. As mentioned everyone want's something different on their ski holiday, so here are a few of our favourite European destinations to burn a hole in your wallet with.
Courchevel 1850
Courchevel 1850 has been synonymous with luxury skiing holidays for longer than I've been alive and will no doubt out live me too. The resort offers the world's largest linked ski area in the Three Valleys, some fantastically flattering pistes around the resort itself and is stunning.
Courchevel is known for its superb hotels, designer shopping and, of course, the James Bond altiport — okay, so it's not actually called that, but you may recognise it from the opening sequence of Tomorrow Never Dies. Courchevel boasts lavish, exclusive hotels, for those who can afford them and also a handful of chalet hotels, for those who can't, but enjoy watching the Prada clad skiers/shoppers and the fantastic atmosphere.
As mentioned, Courchevel is renowned for great hotels, and though they currently seem to be filled with the Russian nouveau riche, there is still an elegantly Anglo-French atmosphere and plenty of wealthy Brits in town. The Hotel Annapurna has to be the reference point for Courchevel's hotels, it has been well established for 36 years and under the same management for the past 20 years — testament to it's reputation. The Annapurna is also closest to the altiport, important for those looking for helicopter transfers or mere James Bond fans.
The Hotel Les Airelles has been a celebrity favourite for years and it's regulars include Eddie Jordan, Mike Rutherford and Chris Rea, as opposed to reality TV stars. The relaxed atmosphere and lavished surroundings, as well as a great location, also add to it's popularity. Now, Le Chabichou, may only be a four star establishment, but boasts the world renowned, michelin starred, Michel Rochedy as it's restaurants head chef. The restaurant received its first Michelin star in 1979 and its second in 1984 and there aren't too many hotels in the Alps that can boast the same level of cuisine!
Lech has been referred to as the Courchevel of Austria, and though it's an exclusive resort, filled with luxurious hotels, offers world class skiing and is steeped in history, it is a very different resort to Courchevel. Courchevel is where the rich happily flaunt their money, Lech is the opposite of this.
Over the Christmas and New Year holidays you won't be able to find a room for love nor money, as many of Europe's elite have the hotels wrapped-up, and have done so for decades. You'll find the owners of Mercedes and BMW, along with their families taking over the resort during the festive season, and though there is always an air of wealth, there types of skiers in Lech never feel the need to show it.
With the big, open, motorway pistes of Lech and the more technical skiing of St. Anton to enjoy, along with this gorgeous, relaxed resort you can see why it is a former favourite of the late Princess Diana.
The Gasthof Post opened in 1937, and like the Annapurna in Courchevel, is the reference point for Lech, the family run hotel has stuck to the same recipe for years and remains a favourite of Lech's regular skiers. Other notable hotels in Lech include the Almhof Schneider, based a the foot of the Schlegelkopf mountain and the luxury chalet-styled, boutique hotel, Hotel Aurelio.
St. Moritz
Though Klosters can often take the limelight when it comes to luxury skiing in Switzerland — and when the Royal family are in town there's no surprise to why — St. Moritz is one of the world's most elegant resorts, boasting one of the most iconic hotels in the Alps, Badrutt's Palace.
St. Moritz is the original winter sports resort, if not the first true ski resort. It came to popularity with the Brits at the turn on the 20th century as skiing began to grow as a holiday activity for the wealthy, and has remained a favourite resort for generations since.
Though not as flashy as Courchevel with it's designer shopping, fur jackets & Range Rovers, it is not as understated as Lech. This is a resort that, again offers an air of wealth and chic surroundings. The shopping would be enough the break to average bank account and the skiing is comparable to Val d'Isere — in size at the very least. There are motorway pistes and flattering runs, for the more pedestrian skier and challenging off-piste for the adrenaline junkies out there.
The historic Palace Hotel in St. Moritz opened in 1896 as the successor to the first winter sports hotel, the Krup Hause. The hotel has recently changed it's name to the Badrutt's Palace, but remains one of the most recognisable hotels in skiing. The founder of hotel built the first bobsled run for his guests and the current owners have maintained the reputation of one of the leading hotels in the world.
There are so many great resorts for a luxury skiing holiday, with Val d'Isere, Davos, Klosters and Ischgl to name a few, but Courchevel, Lech and St. Moritz have long been at the top of most people's wish lists and will remain there for years to come. The question is which resort is the right one for you? Whether you are there for the skiing, the lavish hotels or the shopping.
A look at Europe's luxury ski resorts. Which would you pick?
Looking for a change of scenery for your next ski holiday? Well why not give Italy a blast?
Many resorts claim to be the birthplace of skiing, including St. Moritz and St. Anton. Morgedal in Norway, has a pretty good claim too — and with skiing being a mode of transport during winter in parts of the country, I reckon it's a pretty good shout out. So, here's what they had to say on the matter.
Morgedal is the birthplace of skiing, or to be more correct, snow sport.

Does Danon Edwards' "excuse" for attacking an officer make you mad?
Ex-Marine Who Brutally Attacked Cop Offers Infuriating 'Excuse'
A former Marine named Danon Edwards got into a bout of road rage after a four-vehicle crash on May 12, and instead of dealing with it like a normal person, he allegedly beat the crap out of a Syracuse cop who responded to the scene.
Police Officer Robert Florian was left with a broken jaw and several bruises and other injuries after the incident. Edwards' defense attorney asked for a mental health test during a July 8 arraignment, due to the ex-Marine's "emotional stability" after having served in the "Gulf war."
Yeah, those quotes are there for a reason ... the 33-year-old may have served in the military, but he never saw any action on the battlefield. He never even actually left the country during his service -- he was stationed stateside. Oh yeah, and Operation Desert Storm ended in 1991, when Edwards was 11.
But hey, the kitchen is a stressful place that could totally caused PTSD, right? According to Marine records, Edwards was a food service specialist from July 1999 to January 2003, and never deployed to a war zone.
In court on July 8, Judge Anthony Aloi asked him if he understood that he was being charged with assaulting an officer and resisting arrest. He mumbled, "No, I don't understand. I didn't do it."
After having been free on $50,000 bail, Edwards was taken back into custody and will undergo a mental health exam. If he's found incompetent to stand trial, he'll undergo treatment until he's lucid enough to understand court proceedings.
The really infuriating part of this is that he, or his lawyer, thought he could blame his cop-pummeling ways on PTSD from war-time stress. Did they not think anyone would check it out? And what the heck about mentioning the Gulf war? Dude is 33. They don't let middle schoolers into the military in the U.S.
It's obvious something is off here, but let's pretend like it has anything to do with "stress" of having worked in a kitchen over a decade ago.
Does Danon Edwards' "excuse" for attacking an officer make you mad?
Image via North Syracuse Police
It doesn't make me mad, people use all kinds of excuses when they go to trial. If he is let off because of that then I would say it puts yet another stain on our judicial system which is already a joke.
He simply thought that he was entitled to do it.
That is a problem that is on the upswing.
I thought there were no ex-marines? are there also no ex-Scotsmen?

I'm not sure on how you made it through 18:30 of a 19:10 broadcast before uttering the words "Red Sox". Very strange to listen to, if you hadn't previously heard where he signed... like joining a broadcast mid-game where the announcers go 18 minutes without telling you the score.

Ireland midfielder Darron Gibson could miss the rest of the season after suffering a cruciate knee ligament injury during Ireland's 3-1 World Cup qualifier victory over Kazakhstan.
The Everton player collapsed in a heap after making a first-half challenge against Kazakhstan and was treated on the pitch for several minutes before being carried off by medics with his right knee heavily bandaged.
Interim Ireland manager Noel King confirmed the worst today at a press conference and confirmed that a scan had found that it was cruciate knee ligament damage.
Gibson missed the start of the season with a knee problem and an extended absence will come as a huge blow to the Toffees after their positive start to the campaign.
Ironically, he had only just returned to international action after making himself unavailable for Ireland following former boss Giovanni Trapattoni's decision to leave him sitting on the bench for the Republic's entire Euro 2012 finals campaign.
He had indicated his intention to end his self-imposed exile in the wake of Trapattoni's departure last month and was duly called up by King for the final two qualifiers against Germany and the Kazakhs.
Gibson played the full 90 minutes in Cologne on Friday night as Ireland went down 3-0 to the Germans, but managed only 35 minutes at the Aviva Stadium on Tuesday before disaster struck.

Journalist Diary-Actors charisma help parties to win polls? - Tv9

Legendary actor NT Rama Rao became Chief Minister in 1983 after nine months of party formation. While actor Chiranjeevi had formed PRP two years ahead of elections and tasted defeat in 2009 general elections. Later, he merged PRP with the Congress. Actor and Jana Sena founder Pawan Kalyan, who helped TDP-BJP combine to win 2014 elections, has no clarity about his political future.

If you ride your bike, you are part of an important social movement. Regardless of your level of involvement in any organized effort, this movement would be impossible without your participation. We, as people who ride bikes, are the only ones who will look out for the interests of bicycling as a viable form of transportation. Most people who drive everywhere never give bicycling a second thought, and I'm not holding my breath for politicians lobbied by oil and car companies to take proactive steps. Therefore, bicyclists working together and agreeing at least on the very basics (bikes = good) is essential.
The issue is on my mind this Friday morning because of great efforts that our friend Melissa has taken to create positive change in her suburban town of Auroral, Illinois – and the subsequent blowback she's received from a sport cycling club and vehicular cyclists. Melissa is not some political strategist, she's a woman who rides her bike, feels that the roads should be much safer and is doing something about it.
There will be an organized ride in Aurora on Sunday afternoon that Melissa and others have publicized as a critical mass ride, Aurora's first. This ride has already garnered much attention, including an article in the town's newspaper and a follow-up article today. Both articles are pretty positive about the event and bicycles. Unfortunately, the response from subsections of the bicycling community has not been as positive.
First, she received a message from a certain suburban cycling club, stating that they would never participate in or support an event that carried the Critical Mass name and did not follow all traffic laws. They also suggested she get a permit from the city of Aurora – a permit to ride bikes in the street. Then, in the follow-up article a vehicular cyclist is featured to give an argument against bike lanes.
"It's not that Klenke doesn't support better access for bikes, but he says, "Lanes don't address education, training and attitude for cyclists and motorists to coexist. They're a feel-good panacea that likely worsen the problems instead." He referred me to the book "Effective Cycling" by John Forester, who, according to Klenke, "cites studies that suggest bike lanes lead to increased car-bike accidents and are inherently destructive to traffic management."
On top of this, there are the typical mean-spirited comments at the end of the article from drivers about bicyclists.
I understand where anti-Critical Mass cyclists are coming from. The event can create hostility in drivers and sometimes, with a big enough crowd, lead to unruly behavior. However, the ride on Sunday will be a group of cyclists exercising their right to the road in a lawful manner – nothing more, nothing less. If the ride were not called "Critical Mass," would anyone have paid attention? Would the newspaper have written two articles about the ride before it even took place? A critical mass is an appropriate description for the purpose of the ride.
I understand where vehicular cyclists are coming from. Bicyclists should be empowered to ride in the street with the rest of traffic. But bicycling will never become a widespread mode of transportation in America without bicycling infrastructure. Vehicular cycling may work for a very small minority, but telling a parent toting kids or an elderly woman to get out in the street and fend for herself will not work. I feel even more strongly about this after visiting France and seeing the bicycling infrastructure – and people on bikes – in every city.
People who ride bikes – and people who want to ride bikes but do not feel that the roads are safe enough – have to work together for change. Debates within the bicycling community are both important and inevitable, but there comes a point where rifts stall progress and play into the hands of those already-powerful groups working to maintain the status quo.
So I have a simple request. Could we all in the "bicycling community" agree that people riding bikes lawfully down the street in the hopes that others will note their presence is a Good Thing? Otherwise we are stalling our important social movement.
Sunday. 2 p.m. West Aurora High School. I'll be there.

The SVN repo has been imported into GIT and the SVN repo will be disabled.
A patch release. Includes: fixes for the buffer overflow bug that has been plaguing several Linux distros, tagging for FLAC, and updated translations.
The 2.7.2 release is now available on the download page.
2.7.1 has been released, but the distribution tarball requires a few tweaks. Building 2.7.1 from the release tarball will compile against GTK2, and the new build system should clear up the issues Slackware users were having with libraries, but it will not include the latest internationalization translations. For those either use SVN, or look for 2.7.2 in the near future.
The next release of ripperX builds against GTK2, includes internationalization support, and more...
The following mailing lists have been created:
ripperx-users - general discussion about ripperX
ripperx-devel - discussion pertaining to ripperX developement
ripperx-commits - notification of commits to the SVN tree
Please subscribe and participate!
The 2.7.x ripperX source tree is now being maintained in SVN. The source can be browsed here: http://ripperx.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/ripperx/trunk/
To check out the source, use the following for your SVN URL:
Finally, I have local access to a Fedora Core 3 system with a CDROM device, and have been able to do some testing on that system. This patch release should address at least some of the problems with different cdparanoia on Fedora.
Also, I'm including an RPM. The .spec file is inside the source tarball if you'd like to build your own.
The 2.6.5 patch release fixes a problem with Vorbis tags and a problem with calculating the amount of disk space during the ripping process. It also includes basic m3u playlist support.
ripperX now supports the "toolame" layer 2 MPEG encoder, as well as lower bitrates for those who would like to encode your audio books and the like.
Finally! Many, many bug fixes.
Dave Cinege and Tony Mancill have taken over RipperX development. A 2.6 release is not far away, which will include many needed bug fixes but no new features.

Wendel Palmer, D.C. officer, charged with sexually abusing 11-year-old girl
A D.C. police officer has been arrested and charged with sexually abusing an 11-year-old girl inside a Southeast D.C. church that his family runs.
Police say Wendel Palmer, who joined the department in 1990 and is assigned to the Sixth District, was arrested Wednesday and charged with first-degree child sexual abuse.
The alleged abuse occurred when the accuser was a juvenile, almost 10 years ago. Prosecutors say the assaults continued for two years.
A judge ruled Thursday that Palmer must be held at least until his next court appearance, which is scheduled for next week.
Charging documents state Palmer led the youth choir group and that is how he allegedly found his victim.
The victim, who is now 19, says most of the abuse took place in the Bethuel Temple Church of Christ Apostolic. She says it started when she was 11, but also said it happened too many times to count.
Palmer would give the choir a break and send the other children away and tell her to stay behind. She says he would take her to the pastor's office where he sexually abused her.
The victim revealed the alleged assaults to her mother in March. An investigation led to the arrest and charging of the police officer.
No one at the church would address the charges specifically with ABC7, but some familiar with the church expressed disgust with what is alleged to have taken place.
No one was home when ABC7 knocked at Palmer's Fort Washington, Maryland home Thursday night.
Neighbors, some of whom have known Palmer and his family for a long time, say he has never appeared to be anything but a genuinely nice man.
"I can't imagine somebody like him doing what he's accused of," said neighbor Wilbert Moore. "I just can't imagine it."
Palmer has been placed on leave from the force with pay, pending the outcome of his case.
The Associated Press contributed to this story.

After update: Kaffeine does not play mpg
Last time I used yum it told me I had about 300 updates so I just did a yum update. Now Kaffeine won't play mpgs anymore. It doesn't even show the kaffeine logo on startup and mp3s are played without visualization. I can still watch mpgs with xine.
I also get an error message when started from the console:
X Error: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) 8
Major opcode: 143
Minor opcode: 5
Resource id: 0x28001f4
Any ideas what went wrong?
For those interested:
Somehow kaffeine did not find the right video driver. I changed the xine video settings from auto to opengl. This produced a "Cannot find OpenGL Extensions" Error. Desperate, I tried the other drivers and finally, with xshm it works again. (let's see how long)
Maybe some one can give me a hint for the OpenGL problem?

Delete backup files
I am in process of deleting old backups that I created using Norton 360. In doing this I noticed that I was NOT reclaiming any of the space used on my external backup drive. I explored and found that although I had deleted the main file name, that data file backups for that date were still on the file. I started then to delete each backup file individually (my only option I think) but the process is taking hours. Is this normal? Does anyone now a shortcut on how to delete old data files from old backup files?
Re: Delete backup files
Hello JohninTX
There are no shortcuts as such to delete the old back up files. At times it takes more time when you attempt to delete a huge file.
For deleting the old backup files you can try any of the below methods:
Go to Manage Backup Sets from Main UI>>Backup pillar. In that go to Where tab and select the destination where you have the backed up files. Click on 'Delete back up files...' link available at the bottom of this window. It will list all the back up sets you have made in the past in that particular destination. Select your required backup set and click OK. This will list all the files which are backed up in that particular backup set. Here you can select your required files and click on 'Delete Selected'.
Instead, you can go to the Norton Drive(available with my computers) and traverse to your destined backup set and select the files you want to delete by right click>Delete.
For finding out when you have ran your last backup, please go to the Summary tab in the Manage backup UI, and select your required backup set name in the Backup Set Name drop down. Once you select that, the 'Last Run' will give you the date and time of that particular backup set previously run.
Hope this info helps you
