28.1 General Principles
Protecting your privacy is very important to us. There are also various Acts, which impose obligations on us as far as privacy protection is concerned. We have accordingly developed this Privacy Policy to protect your personal information and keep it confidential.
In doing so, we have paid particular attention to the following acts:
Constitution of the Republic of South Africa (Act 108 of 1996);
Promotion of Access to Information Act (2 of 2000);

Regulation of Interception of Communications and Provision of Communication-related Information Act (RICA) (70 of 2002).

We do everything we reasonably can to protect your rights of privacy on systems and websites controlled by us, but we are not liable for any unauthorised or unlawful disclosures of your personal and confidential information made by third parties who are not subject to our control. You should take note, however, that the information and privacy practices of our business partners, advertisers, sponsors or other sites to which we provide hyperlinks, may be different from ours.

DETROIT – Red Wings' defenseman Brendan Smith said he didn't see it coming.
With 11 games left in the regular season, Smith found himself a healthy scratch along the blue line. He was back watching from the sideline a game later.
'I think I've been playing pretty well, so it gets a little frustrating when you're not in the lineup,' Smith said after practice Wednesday at Joe Louis Arena. 'We're all competitive players, competitive people, so we want to be in the lineup, but for sure I want to be there, and I thought I've been playing pretty well. There are things that I have to work on, obviously. There are things that everybody's got to work on, but for myself as a young player, there's a lot more, so there are things that I have to do it if I'm in the lineup (Thursday) and make sure I stay there, but it definitely caught me off guard.'
Smith will return to the lineup Thursday in the Wings' home game against the San Jose Sharks.
Prior to his benching, Smith was a minus-5 over his last five games, going a minus-1 in each of those contests.
'I just wanted the puck looked after better,' Wings coach Mike Babcock said. 'He's a better player than that. He's had a few days to watch and think about it. I think Smitty is an ultra-competitive guy, who has a huge upside, but he's just got to take care of the puck better.'
In 26 games this season, Smith has five assists and is a minus-1.
'I think things have to get better, just making my game a little more simple and I guess playing the Nicklas Lidstrom way – see the first pass, make it – so just working hard and try to keep positive and get myself in the lineup again,' Smith said.
Smith said he thinks this was the first time he was a healthy scratch in his playing days.
After overcoming a rash of injuries, the Wings' blue line is suddenly crowded with nine healthy defensemen.
'It's really competitive and we have great D, so there wasn't much of an explanation, but, so you've just got to back away from the game and kind of see what you have to do to get better and then do that in the practice and then once you get the chance keep yourself in the lineup,' Smith said. 'So if they throw me into the lineup against San Jose I'm just going to play my best and play hard and try to do what I can do to so I can stay in the lineup.'
Smith, who's averaging just under 19 minutes of ice time per game this season, will replace Ian White in the lineup.
No home cooking Home ice was an advantage last season for the Wings, but this year that hasn't been the case.
Detroit is just 10-7-3 at Joe Louis Arena, 1-3-1 in the last five.
'We've survived by winning on the road and not at home,' Babcock said. 'We have to be better at home. We were good early at home and not on the road and now it's vice versa so if I had the answer we'd fix it, but in saying that maybe we try to be too cute at home and more simplified on the road. We need to play a simple game and our guys understand that.'
The Wings won an NHL record 23 consecutive games on home ice last season.
'We've been way too inconsistent at home,' defenseman Jonathan Ericsson said. 'I don't know what the reason is. We need to find a way here in order to make the playoffs.'
Detroit is currently holding onto the eighth playoff seed in the Western Conference, two points ahead of Dallas and Columbus.
'It seems like the teams that are below us are hounding us and the teams that are above us are trying to win every game that they can,' Ericsson said. 'It feels like if you win one game the other guys are winning too. It's like there is no room for error here. We have to be really good here over the last part of the season.'
Ins and outs Forward Darren Helm (back) skated before practice and for the first few minutes with the team before leaving.
Babcock said Tuesday that he wasn't planning on having Helm back this season.
'I thought he might have put it that he can't really count on me being ready to play or he's got to be prepared for me not to play,' Helm said. 'I want to play. I think he'd still like me to get healthy and be in the lineup but right now it's been three months and it hasn't changed so he can't expect me to make a remarkable recovery, so just be prepared not to.'
Forwards Mikael Samuelsson (sore pectoral muscle) skated briefly after practice, while Todd Bertuzzi (pinched nerve) hasn't practiced in two days. Wings general manager Ken Holland said Bertuzzi has gone for another opinion on his back.

With all those exiting applications you should not forget about KDE itself, KDE 3.5.4 will be released very soon! Stay tuned to The Dot.
Rosegarden is nice but Lmms is a really powerfull tool. However, still Band in Box shows how software looks like which really serves the interests of the amateurs.

Trying BasKet?
If you're trying out BasKet, you really should go with the 0.6.x betas. They are very usable and much much better than the 0.5 series. It's now titled BasKet Note Pads for some reason.
Excellent software.

Rosegarden / Jack
I'd love to try Rosegarden but setting up Jack is a pain. I've had minimal success - the one time I managed to get it working the sound quality was awful.

Re: Rosegarden / Jack
As of about kernel-2.6.12 jack should be pretty easy to setup. Certainly with most recent distros it just works out of the box. With My delta 1010lt jack just run perfectly. I for one would recommend it especially with the likes of rosegarden (although you dont need jack for this to work) ardour and jamin etc, linux audio is pretty damn good.

KimDaBa v. Digikam?
So how to KimDaBa and Digikam compare? I'm quite happy with the latter; it supports multi-level tagging, is moderately fast, uses a simple SQL structure (so I can write external programs), and talks to my camera. Oh, and it supports other metadata formats (like XMP).
I don't see what features KimDaBa (or whatever) has that aren't already in Digikam. I'm probably missing an obvious document somewhere; anyone know where?

CANCUN, Mexico, May 13 (UPI) -- A study of snow and ice on Mount Everest shows the world's highest mountain peak is shedding its frozen cloak as glaciers retreat with warming, researchers say.
Glaciers on Mount Everest and the national park surrounding it have shrunk by 13 percent in the last 50 years and the snowline has shifted upward by 590 feet, Sudeep Thakuri, who is leading the research as part of his doctoral studies at the University of Milan in Italy, said.
The researchers, who are set to present their findings at a scientific conference in Cancun, Mexico, organized by the American Geophysical Union, said they suspect the decline of snow and ice in the Everest region is from human-generated greenhouse gases altering global climate.
The majority of the glaciers in the national park are retreating at an increasing rate, Thakuri said, which will have impacts far beyond the park's boundaries.
"The Himalayan glaciers and ice caps are considered a water tower for Asia since they store and supply water downstream during the dry season," he said in an AGU release Monday. "Downstream populations are dependent on the melt water for agriculture, drinking, and power production."

Defense budget plan doesn't cut as deeply as Pentagon says
WASHINGTON — Pentagon officials unveiled the outlines Thursday of what they called a pared-down defense budget, but their request increases baseline spending beyond the projected end of the Afghan war, even as they plan to reduce ground forces.
Arguing that the United States needs to be prepared for myriad potential threats despite ending the war in Iraq — and with congressional opposition to military spending cuts likely to be as stiff as ever despite the uncertain federal fiscal picture — the Pentagon's request calls for an increase in its base budget by $36 billion over the next five years. And its planned reduction in ground forces by 2017 would still leave a larger military than before the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The Pentagon's proposal over five years is an 8 percent decrease in the spending levels the Obama administration proposed last year, a total cut of $259 billion over five years. But the figures also represent an average of 2 percent growth each year over five years, employing a definition of the term "reduction" that may be popular in Washington but is unconventional anywhere else.
"That's a real cut," Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said at the Pentagon. The budget is Panetta's first since he assumed leadership of the Pentagon last summer.
As the Obama administration winds down more than a decade of war, the budget request — only fragments of which were released Thursday — is supposed to account for cuts of $487 billion in projected spending over the next 10 years.
Pentagon officials said their proposal represented tough choices, but the biggest cuts appeared to be in the Defense Department's plan to reduce the number of U.S. ground forces to slightly more than on Sept. 10, 2001, before the wars began.
At the same time, the department proposed increasing spending on technology and major weapons systems, after a strategic announcement earlier this month in which defense officials said they must be ready for all kinds of warfare and proposed greater use of unmanned aircraft and a more agile ground force.
It wants to raise spending on drones by 30 percent, delay spending on the costly and controversial F-35 Joint Strike Fighter and fund a new bomber and a sea-based vessel that would allow drones and helicopters to take off from international waters. It wants to maintain current spending levels on missile defense and nuclear weapons while increasing spending on cybersecurity.
Tthe department sought to assert that it was simultaneously taking risks and not losing any conventional capability. It said it was responding to growing fiscal pressures because this proposal represented the biggest cut it had made in a decade.
Their proposal, officials have said, carries risks because the U.S. military no longer would be able to fight two wars simultaneously and might be required to make difficult decisions about military priorities.
"The primary risk lies not in what we can do but in how much we can do and how fast we can do it," said Army Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
For the 2013 fiscal year, the department requests a $525 billion base budget — a $6 billion decrease from the current budget — and an additional $88.4 billion in supplemental funding for the war in Afghanistan, down from $115 billion this year.
For 2014, the request for the base budget — which excludes war spending — jumps to $534 billion; by fiscal year 2017 it reaches $567 billion.
The department, which expanded the size of its ground forces quickly over the past decade to support the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, plans to cut the Army by 2017 to 490,000 soldiers from the current 562,000. Over the same period, the Marines would shrink by 20,000 to 182,000.
That would still leave a larger military than before the wars started. In 2001, there were 480,000 soldiers and 180,000 Marines.
In line with the smaller forces, the Pentagon calls for retiring planes that transport troops, including 27 C-5As and 65 C-130s. The budget also proposes modest limits on pay raises that would take effect in 2015 — after the U.S. combat mission in Afghanistan is expected to be over — and increases in health care premiums.
Panetta said the administration would ask Congress to authorize another round of cuts at U.S. military bases through the base realignment and closure process, which was last employed in 2005. He didn't offer specifics.
Regardless, the suggestion alone could spark outrage on Capitol Hill, especially in an election year. Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., the chairman of the Armed Services Committee, said Thursday that he wouldn't support closing domestic bases before U.S. bases in Europe were shuttered.
Rep. William "Mac" Thornberry, R-Texas, called the proposal for a new BRAC round "ridiculous, and there is likely little support in Congress for such a thing, on either side of the aisle or either side of the Capitol. It will cause disruptions across the services, yet offer little in terms of savings."
Announcing the results of a strategic review last month, the Defense Department said it would increase its focus on Asia. Its budget proposal reflects that, with spending for an 11th aircraft carrier and weapons system that could respond to China's growing military strength.
The department said it planned to cut two brigades from Europe and, according to Panetta, commit more troops to Asia, but he didn't offer specifics Thursday.
The department plans to save billions more by delaying production of the F-35, the most expensive weapons program in U.S. history. Bloomberg News reported that the projected expenditure on the system would be $9.2 billion, which would buy 29 of the fighters, 13 fewer than initially planned.
Officials said they hoped that the delay would give developers time to correct the myriad technical problems plaguing the program. But experts warn that prolonging production could raise its costs.
The Obama administration is expected to announce its full 2013 budget proposal in early February.

February 23, 2009
Los Angeles - UCLA Anderson School of Management Dean Judy Olian today announced a generous $1 million gift from Board of Visitors member Richard S. Ziman, chairman of American Value Partners and co-chair of the school's $100 million fundraising campaign. Half of the $1 million gift will create the Richard S. Ziman Fellowship to support MBA, PhD or post-doctoral students with a preference for study in real estate. The remaining $500,000 will be invested in the Richard S. Ziman Center Fund in support of the real estate center's most critical needs. The Richard S. Ziman Center for Real Estate was named in appreciation of Mr. Ziman's $5 million gift to the center in 2001.
"Dick's gift to support students comes at a critical moment in time, when many of our qualified applicants and students have been hit hard by the economic downturn and may be unable to afford their education," said Olian. "We are deeply grateful because Dick's support will make the difference in a student's ability to study at UCLA Anderson, and cements his legacy at UCLA through the Ziman Center for Real Estate."
Support from the Ziman Fund addresses various needs of the Center which include, but are not limited to: research grants awarded to faculty across all disciplines at UCLA who undertake real estate research; conferences, symposia and seminars that address current issues in real estate; and student support through sponsorship of case competitions, site visits, career counseling, industry mentors and distinguished speakers in the classroom.
"I strongly believe that as a public university, UCLA Anderson has a responsibility to educate our community and advance our society though superlative research across all disciplines," said Ziman. "I chose to leave my legacy at UCLA and through the Ziman Center because I know this is a place where these objectives are met."
"Dick's leadership and vision for the Ziman Center were well-established with his original $5 million gift, but this additional gift is a strong testament to his enduring commitment," said Stuart Gabriel, Ziman Center Director and Professor of Finance at UCLA Anderson. "We are very grateful for his generosity. It enables us to further enhance the quality of real estate research, education and programming created by the Center."
Ziman is a long-time generous benefactor to both UCLA Anderson and the entire university. In addition to his service as a member of UCLA Anderson's Board of Visitors and as the school's campaign co-chair, he also serves on the Chancellor's Competitiveness Council as a chief advisor on UCLA's most pressing strategic issues such as student diversity and faculty compensation. He is a strong advocate for the university and meets regularly with the governor, mayor and members of the legislature on behalf of UCLA. In addition, he serves as a member of the Pauley Pavilion Campaign Committee, the Medical Science Executive Board and the Israel Studies Committee. In recognition of his community leadership at UCLA and in Los Angeles, Ziman was awarded the university's most esteemed award, the UCLA Medal, in 2008.

Video depicts beheading of second American journalist
Ignoring his mother's plea for mercy, the Islamic State posted a video Tuesday showing the beheading of Steven Joel Sotloff, the second American journalist executed in two weeks by the radical extremist group in reprisal for U.S. airstrikes against its fighters in northern Iraq.
Sotloff's slaying was certain to pile new pressure on President Barack Obama to devise a strategy for dealing with the brutal group in its sanctuary on Syria's side of the border. Obama admitted last week his administration had not yet developed such a plan, triggering widespread derision.
Sotloff, 31, of Miami, Fla., appeared to have been executed within the last two days as his killer referred to U.S. airstrikes that on Sunday helped Iraqi forces break a two-month-long Islamic State siege of Amerli, a town populated by minority ethnic Turkmen.
He also appeared to have been killed by the same suspected British militant who beheaded American freelance photojournalist James Foley, 40, of Rochester, N.H., on Aug. 19. The video of Foley's slaying ended with the militant threatening to kill Sotloff unless Obama halted the U.S. airstrikes _ which now total more than 120 _ that began on Aug.8. Sotloff's capture last year in Syria had been kept secret until he appeared in that video.
Bernadette Mehan, a spokeswoman for the National Security Council, said that the U.S. intelligence community was working "as quickly as possible" to verify the authenticity of the video. But a statement issued by Barak Barfi, a Sotloff family spokesman, appeared to confirm that it was genuine.
"The family knows of this horrific tragedy and is grieving privately," said the statement.
The video of Sotloff's slaying was first detected by the SITE Intelligence Group, a private organization that monitors extremist Internet postings. Entitled "A Second Message to America," it began with a clip of Obama on Aug. 20 condemning Foley's killing and vowing to "act against" the Islamic State "standing alongside others."
Like Foley, Sotloff, a freelance writer for Time magazine and other publications, then spoke to the camera as he knelt in a bleak, desert-like setting. His black-clad executioner stood at his side, a knife in his left hand, only his eyes left uncovered by the black scarf swathing his face.
"I am Steven Joel Sotloff. I'm sure you know exactly who I am right now and why I'm appearing before you," said Sotloff in a calm, steady voice. "Obama your foreign policy of intervention in Iraq was supposed to be for the preservation of American lives and interests. So why is it that I'm paying the price of your interference with my life? Am I not an American citizen?"
Sotloff was clad _ as was Foley _ in a surgical scrubs-like garment of orange, the same color as the uniforms in which detainees who were abused at the former U.S.-run Abu Ghraib prison were dressed.
It wasn't clear if Sotloff was speaking his own words or those dictated by his captors. His statement ended in a virtual taunt of Obama.
"From what little I know of U.S. foreign policy, you could not win an election without promising to bring our troops home from Iraq and Afghanistan and to close down Guantanamo (Bay detention center)," said Sotloff. "Here you are now, Obama, nearing the end of your term without having achieved any of the above, deceivingly marching us, the American people, into a blazing fire."
After Sotloff ended, the killer was seen standing behind him and beginning to slice into his throat. The video then cut to a picture of Sotloff's bloodied head sitting atop his corpse.
The killer addressed the camera, speaking in what sounded like the same British accent as that of Foley's executioner. He referred not only to the U.S. airstrikes at Amerli, but U.S. attacks that have driven the Islamic State back from the Mosul Dam, which Iraqi forces and a Kurdish militia recaptured the day before Foley's execution.
"I'm back Obama and I'm back because of your arrogant foreign policy towards the Islamic State, because of your insistence in continuing your bombings in Amerli and the Mosul Dam. Despite our warnings, you Obama have yet again through your actions killed yet another American citizen," said the militant. "So just as your missiles continue to strike our people, our knives will continue to strike the necks of your people."
The video ended with the killer standing next to another kneeling, orange-clad hostage, identified as David Cawthorne Haines, a British citizen, who apparently is the next to be killed. The militants warned other governments _ which include Britain _ to quit a U.S.-led coalition that has been arming the Peshmerga, the militia of Iraq's autonomous Kurdish region, against the Islamic State.
"I take this opportunity to warn those governments who've entered this evil alliance of America against the Islamic State to back off and leave our people alone," he said.
Haines reportedly is a former British soldier who worked for a number of humanitarian organizations as a security adviser.
While British officials have yet to identify the suspect in the Foley killing, British news report have said he is believed to be Abdel-Majed Abdel Bary, 24, a former rapper who traveled to Syria last year to join the Islamic State.
Sotloff was killed a week after his mother, Shirley Sotloff, a teacher, released a video plea for her son's life. She addressed her request directly to Abu Bakr al Baghdadi, the shadowy head of the caliphate _ or religious state _ that the Islamic State declared on the huge swaths of northern Iraq and Syria it has overrun since mid-June.
White House spokesman Josh Earnest said that the administration had dedicated "significant time and resources" to trying to rescue Sotloff.
"This is something that the administration has obviously been watching very carefully, since this threat against Mr. Sotloff's life was originally made a few weeks ago," Earnest said. "Our thoughts and prayers, first and foremost, are with Mr. Sotloff and Mr. Sotloff's family and those who worked with him."
A July 4 U.S. Special Forces raid to rescue Foley from a camp near the Islamic State's headquarters in the northern Syrian city of Raqqa failed as he'd been moved.
Foley and Sotloff spent extensive time in the Middle East covering the turmoil unleashed by the Arab Spring. Sotloff wrote some of Time magazine's initial coverage of the September 2012 attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya. He also chronicled the humanitarian disaster afflicting millions of people inside Syria.
After attending high school in New Hampshire, Sotloff studied at the University of Central Florida, but left before graduating to pursue his journalism career.
The Islamic State has set up a quasi-administration of social services and Islamic courts, which mete out crucifixions and other punishments for alleged transgressions of Islamic law. Its fighters also have committed numerous atrocities, including beheadings, mass executions, rape and selling women captives into slavery, according to human rights groups and online videos.
The Foley and Sotloff videos were professionally made, underscoring the sophistication of the group's propaganda operations, which spread such materials on social media to attract new recruits and terrify the millions of people living under its rule.
Michael Quigley, a national security expert at Human Rights First, said the Sotoff video and others like it appeared aimed at turning U.S. public opinion against Obama's decision to intervene in Iraq less than three years after the last U.S. combat troops left, ending the eight-year U.S. occupation.
"I think what they're trying to do is to get the American people say it's not worth it," said Quigley, who served as the National Counter-Terrorism Center's lead analyst on al Qaida in Iraq, the terrorist group from which the Islamic State emerged.
But the Islamic State's effort actually may be backfiring because of widespread public revulsion at Foley's murder. A public opinion poll published last week by YouGov.com, a market research firm, showed that 63 percent of Americans now back military strikes against the Islamic State inside Syria, compared to a year ago, when 62 percent opposed U.S. military action there.
Sen. Bill Nelson, D-Fla., announced that he'd file legislation giving Obama clear authority to order U.S. airstrikes against the Islamic State in Syria.
Obama departed Washington on Tuesday afternoon for a NATO summit in Cardiff, Wales, without commenting on Sotloff's execution. While the Russian-backed insurrection in Ukraine was to take center stage, Obama was expected to consult on the summit sidelines with other world leaders on dealing with the Islamic State.
The president has sought strenuously to minimize U.S. involvement in Syria, where the more than three-year-old civil war pits President Bashar Assad's Iran-backed forces against the Islamic State and weaker insurgent groups, including al Qaida's affiliate, the Nusra Front. Most of the groups also are fighting the Islamic State.
But Obama is being forced to reconsider his policy by the Islamic State's massive territorial seizures, its murderous atrocities and growing threat to U.S. allies in the region, Foley's murder and the acknowledgment by top U.S. officials that the group can't be crushed without addressing its presence in Syria.
After Foley's death, Obama authorized the first U.S. surveillance flights of Islamic State targets in Syria and launched an effort _ to be spearheaded by a diplomatic tour after the NATO summit by Secretary of State John Kerry _ to build an international coalition to fight the group through military, humanitarian and other means.
The execution of Sotloff could help Kerry garner support, Quigley said.
"The diplomatic pressure will go up. John Kerry has a mission ahead of him. What else motivates the secretary of state more than . . . losing one of our own," he said.
Obama also has said he intends to increase support for moderate Syrian opposition groups, who've long complained of receiving very little help from the United States.
At the same time, Obama said last week that he hadn't yet developed a strategy for crushing the Islamic State inside Syria, drawing intense criticism from Republicans, former diplomats and some regional experts.
Earnest pushed back at the criticism on Tuesday.
"There are certainly people who will take advantage of the opportunity to do some Monday morning quarterbacking here," he said. "But ultimately, when you're the commander in chief, the decision resides with you to make best use of American military force to protect American interests."
For more than two years, the Committee to Protect Journalists has ranked Syria as the most dangerous country in the world for journalists.
At least 70 other journalists have been killed and more than 80 have been kidnapped while covering the conflict, according to CPJ figures. The group estimates that around 20 journalists are currently missing in Syria, most of them Syrians. They include Austin Tice, of Houston, TX, a freelancer for worked for McClatchy, the Washington Post and other news outlets.

We've reported quite a bit on Nokia's Glance screen in the past but we also know some of you are new to Windows Phone and may have picked up a Lumia 925 this week or a Lumia 1020 next. If that's the case, you may not be familiar with how to enable Glance (or even what it is) and all the options that it has available to you.
So we whipped up a little tutorial video to show you how to enable this feature (it's not on by default, though we don't know about the 1020 yet) and configure it for your liking.
Glance, for those who don't know, is Nokia's always-on clock for their Lumia line. It launched with the Lumia 925 but will be available on the Lumia 1020 for launch and other Lumia series devices when Nokia's Amber update rolls out later this summer. Basically, a clock is fixed on your otherwise-off display and while it of course uses battery, it's quite unassuming for usage.
The clock is quite ingenious too as it auto-turns off when in your pocket and turns on when you pull it out. Likewise, you can set it to be off, always on, peek or timed. We detailed 'peek' last week, as that is the one that allows you to hover your hand over the phone to turn on the clock for 60-seconds. Timed will turn off after about 15 minutes and always on or off are self-explanatory.
Likewise you have a setting for "night mode" where the display won't be as bright and instead of a grey clock, it's a deep red, making it less distracting and easier on the eyes (very nice for movie theaters). You can even set at which times you would like night mode to kick in and turn off, which is a nice bonus.
Other alerts that are shown on Glance include vibration and when it is charging.
And that's it so far for Glance from Nokia. Who knows what else they will add to it in future updates, but there is little doubt in our minds: it's one of the most useful and elegant looking features we've seen recently on a smartphone.
