Our principle is to give out of your abundance and to be of service to our fellow mankind.
Our mission is to see a positive shift in our community as a result of people becoming more self responsible and generous.
Focus is on reaching my professional colleagues primarily chiropractors

A House Divided - 4th Edition
Product Information
|Struggle in the American Civil War.
|Mayfair Games
|Family Games, War Games, Strategy Games
|Cardboard box
Product Description
2 players.
Average game length: 60 minutes
A House Divided simulates the epic struggle of the American Civil War that was fought over the twin issues of slavery and state's rights. The period from 1840 to 1861 saw these issues brought to a boil, and in 1861 the nation became tangled in a terrible war that lasted four long years.
The game depicts the war between North and South from the First Battle of Bull Run (or Manassas Junction) to Lee's surrender at Appomattox Courthouse (or Grant's surrender at Harrisburg…). Each player leads one of these two nations and makes the strategic decisions which determine the outcome of the war.
The game board represents the United States, north and south and from the Atlantic coast to just west of the Mississippi. Including Missouri, Iowa, Illinois Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky and West Virginia. The play map contains a number of boxes, each representing a city, town or locations important to the war. These boxes are connected by transportation lines – blue for rivers, tan for roads and black for railroads – which provide the paths to victory or defeat.
Can you keep the Union whole or force the separation of the United States?

ARAG World Team Cup II
PTA 250 - Saturday (Finals Day) - Düsseldorf, Germany - Clay (Red)
West CWLand have taken a whitewash over the United States to claim the World Team Cup in an entertaining final. Despite the 3-0 scoreline, it was entertaining tennis all round as the Americans pushed the West to the limit.
In the opening match, No. 2 Jojo Mustard finally found some singles form as he picked up a straight sets win over Jason Bradley. Having dropped a match to János Varga earlier in the week, Mustard was a surprise choice to return to the singles fold but he had just enough to edge out the American. Bradley stuck close to Mustard with some typically resilient tennis, but it was the Westerner who opened up a 1-0 lead for the slight favourites with a 6-3, 7-5 win.
It was all on the line in the hotly anticipated matchup between two of the world's top five, but it was the underdog Darcy Cowan who got the jump on Sven Oxenstierna to take the first set 7-5. But the big-serving American was brought back to Earth as he dropped the second set to love and found himself a break down in the third. Cowan clawed back with a surprise break back, but Oxenstierna was by that point creating too many chances against the American who was all-serve by that point - winning 5-7, 6-0, 7-5 to seal the title.
The scrap between the world's top two doubles pairings Hugh James and Ralph Robinson, and Heath Davis and Mustard was unfortunately a dead rubber, but the Westerners prevailed in an entertaining affair for all involved 6-3, 4-6, [10-7].

He openly criticized the notion of bringing Fett back from the Sarlacc, laughing at it, and saying, "In my vision, Boba Fett died in the Sarlacc and that was that". I'll never forget how he kinda looked down on the idea even. I think that was the first time I saw him sort of turn his nose up on EU a bit publicly.

One side: Against the mosque
A political advocate asks not whether the Muslim community center near Ground Zero can be built, but whether it should be built.
By Guest Blogger Michael J. Kerrigan
At the outset, I stipulate that American Muslims who may wish to build a community center near "Ground Zero" are well within their Constitutional rights to do so. Christians, Jews, Mormons, and other religious denominations in the United States support the First Amendment rights of free exercise of religion for all persons in our nation. So building a mosque near Ground Zero is legal. But is it prudent? Or is it a breach of civility?
In spite of our national tolerance for diversity of faith, many believe placing a mosque near Ground Zero is not virtuous, but imprudent. In fact, many consider the act a breach of civility. They think that such an act lacks the virtue of prudence and such behavior lacks civility, namely, consideration for the suffering of other groups who co-exist with Muslims in our melting pot society.
What exactly is the virtue of prudence? It is the ability to use both foresight and insight before acting, so there are no regrets in hindsight. It is the virtue that enables one to consider: What will happen if this act occurs? Is doing this act the "right" thing to do?
Proponents of building the mosque have engaged in name-calling (argumentum ad hominem). They claim that those who disagree with the decision to build are bigots who are intolerant of the Muslim faith. Is this true?
In this particular case, tolerance and respect must be considered from two perspectives: the freedom to exercise religion and the sensitivity due to the relatives and victims of 9/11 and to all U.S. citizens who remain scarred by the wounds of 9/11. Many opponents of building the mosque near Ground Zero are not intolerant of the Muslims' right to exercise religion, they just consider exercising that right at the chosen location a breach of civility.
President Obama missed an opportunity to use commonalities in our diverse religious faiths as a unifying force when he addressed this controversy. Rather than taking sides on Friday evening and reversing sides on Saturday, he could have considered the prudence of the great scholar Rabbi Hillel who taught Jewish followers 2,000 years ago something that is at the very heart of Torah:
"Don't do to your neighbor what you would hate if your neighbor did it to you." That is the essence of civility.
Or he could have taken a lesson from the deceased Pope John Paul II, who strongly suggested to the nuns who wished to build a convent a Auschwitz, notwithstanding the fact that they had the clear legal right to build a convent there, to be prudent and respectful of the millions of Jews who lost their lives at Auschwitz and build a convent at another location. It takes the virtue of prudence to sometimes not exercise your legal rights in order to avoid doing to your neighbor what you yourself would not like done to you.
It is my hope that all groups planning buildings and projects at or near Ground Zero will emulate the civility of two wise religious leaders, Rabbi Hillel and Pope John Paul II.
Must every legal right be exercised, or is it more prudent, at times to give up a legal right in consideration of your neighbor?

Distance calculated from Adelaide
Serving Asian & Thai.
Absolutely fabulous food, excellent service, friendly atmosphere and excellent value. I would highly recomend Aroy Thai
Excellent and helpful
Last week we dined at this recommended restaurant and thoroughly enjoyed the experience
Best take away thai! Great now to dine in as well. Best Green Curry in Adelaide!!!
The food is excellent value for money. The staff are very polite and efficient. It gets busy on Fridays and Saturday nights, especially for takeaways so be ready to wait, or order earlier in the evening. Even though the outside looks a little old and shabby, the inside is renovated and clean. It has a slight intimate feel to it with the rooms. Be sure to have the baileys icecream! Would suit a romantic dinner after a day in the hills. Thoroughly recommend.
been going there over 10 years we live 20 mins away now but only place to go for great food
We discovered this awesome place on a public holiday as it kinda was a last sort cos all the other restaurants were closed. The place looked a bit dodgy on the outside but when we went on the side door we were amazed that it looked really professional on the inside. The food was great, the service was really good and the ambience is light. We'll definitely be coming back.
Food is reasonably authentic / get good value for money spent / service excellent, polite and very efficient / ambience a bit ordinary but not so much so that it can't be overlooked and still have a good night out.
Overall, this is a very good restaurant. I have been here several times and the only reason the food does not get 4.5/5 is that the quality of the meat is inconsistent. Most of the time it is very fresh and tender but every now and then the meat is very chewy and gristly. The ladies that serve are polite but not very attentive.
So far we have only had take away from here and the food has always been very impressive. However, last time I ordered the fried rice with the prawns and calamari and received not one of either. Not impressed when you pay the extra to get them. Looking forward to trying more from the menu but the service could be friendlier for newcomers such as us, and not just reserved for their regulars.
This is easily the best thai I have ever had. Every dish is fantastic. Although, you must be ready to wait atleast 30 mins for take-away.
Love Aroy Thai. It's a great local for a casual but tasty dining experience. The decor isn't very cosy for such intimate rooms however it is neat and clean.
Dinned last week and overal experience was ok, have eaten at many different Thai places over the past 6 months and I rate Aroy Thai 6/10.
Scam Central Anyone who thinks that this place is good is a culinary desert. They've simply no idea or any experience for what Thai is about. One bogan begets another!!
I was really looking forward to my dinner from here because most reviews were great! I was greatly disappointed!!! Spring rolls were beef not chicken and vegetables???? Some carrot that's all! Pad Thai would have to be the worst I've ever eaten! Just noodles with some chicken prawn and squid oh and some bean sprout. No nuts no sauce no vegetables!!! Will not return :( should have grab hungry jacks when getting my sons dinner!
The worst Thai we've had, just can't believe the favourable comments. We think these reviewers must think McDonalds is a Michelin 3 star. Meat was gristle and God only knows what the Pad Thai was meant to be???

Denver is called the Mile High City, and winter driving there is made easier with 4WD. Today's Nice Price or Crack Pipe Tercel has that, but does its combination of condition and price make you think the seller is high?
Debuting in 1990, Cop Rock was a strange mash-up of cop drama and musical from Hill Street Blues creator Steven Bochco. Not surprisingly, it lasted only 11 episodes, and garnered the dubious honor of being dubbed by TV Guide as one of the worst TV shows of all time. Somewhat more surprising was the fact that nearly 70% of you want to rock a cop car, and gave yesterday's 1971 Dodge Polara CHP pursuit an arresting Nice Price win.
Back in the day, Dodge proclaimed that nothing could outrun their 440-powered police cruisers, and you can be assured that today's 1985 Toyota Tercel SR5 Wagon wouldn't prove that claim wrong. Speed may not have been the mid-eighties Toyota's forte, but the car had other attributes that made up for that slowcoming.
The Tercel was Toyota's first timid step into front wheel drive, and in an attempt not to freak everybody out, they kept the engine in a longitudinal placement just like the precedent rear drive Starlet. By the time the second generation rolled around that Audi-esque north-south configuration was put to good use in providing all four tires on the ground with motivation in the Wagon – the lazy-ass spare still just being along for the ride, however. Slacker.
Turducken is three delicious birds all rolled into one, but it's a little freaky once you think about what it must take to get the turkey to swallow the duck after watching what the duck has done to the chicken. At least I hope that's the way they get them inside one another as the back door alternative would be even worse.
Anyway, much like that fowl treat, the Tercel Wagon is like three cars rolled into one — first off it's got all the efficiency and reliability of the Tercel platform, on top of which it gains the coil-sprung rear axle out of the Corolla for added rear wheel drive goodness. All that conspires to make the car Toyota's equivalent to the contemporary Subie wagon.
This one arrives in metallic teal green with complimentary blue interior. Much like the later Subaru Outbacks and Volvo XC70s, the 4WD SR5 edition of the wagon gets some butching up –- including full-depth rocker cladding (an '80s staple) and an oversized and off-set 4WD grille badge and. . .well, that's about it. This one has seen some better days. The right rear corner shows a war wound that might need fixin' and some of the butchness has rubbed off -– literally, as the passenger side molding has gone the way of all things impermanent. Also, both the hatch paint and the rubber on the bumper-car worthy bumpers proves that even at a mile high, the sun and the smog will take a toll. But hey, check out that mountain vista rear window shade, which may be the reason the interior looks to be in such good shape for a car with –- wait for it — 238,000 miles. Perhaps they were all highway miles. The dash is all '80s angular goodness and the steering wheel comes with a cover that is ribbed for her enjoyment. A/C and a sunroof lux it up, but the best part of the SR5 dash, a dash-mounted incline-o-meter that lets you know everything but your political leanings, is missing from this one. Also cool are the front seats which come with shoulder-level plastic handles engendering all kinds of grabtastic shenanigans.
The 1.5-litre OHC four is nothing to write home about unless of course the fact that the 3A has a carb and is a backflow design leaves your readers enrapt. That engine could be mated with a slusher or either a 5 or 6-speed manual, the extra gear on the sixer being an ultra low stump-puller. This one has the five speed, so your stumps are all safe, but the row your own-ability will make the car's 60 horsepower a little more fun to flex. Sloppy weather won't spoil the fun either, as the nominally front wheel drive Tercel can be shifted on the fly into 4WD with the flick of a lever. Torque is split 50/50 front to rear, and no center diff means that should one end start slipping the other won't be able to do much more than shrug and start spinning itself.
But the Tercel SR5 Wagon was never intended to traverse the Rubicon, its capabilities limited to slushy or otherwise slippery tarmac instead. And you can bring a lot of stuff through the muck as the Tercel Wagon features one of Japan's styling memes of the '80s –- that of the tall car. Frequently we come across a kind of cool car from the past that has managed to dodge the age bullet like it had been lubed with Oil of Olay. Those cars typically feature a price that the seller seems is commensurate with its status as a survivor, but which engenders a whole bunch of comments along the lines of rare doesn't equate to desirable.
So, this Tercel SR5 is pretty interesting, and while it looks like it has been kind of beat on, it's still not that bad and is in much better shape than most of the others I've seen out there. But the question remains, is it worth $995? Sure, there's a ton of old Subarus that you could buy for that kind of cheddar, and that's the more traditional route for a small car that spins all four wheels, but these Tercel Wagons are pleasantly different plus they have a kind of spunky personality. And wouldn't you like to get spunked?
So what do you think, is this Tercel SR5 4WD Wagon worth $995? Or, does that price make buying this car from Colorado rocky?

Peninsula Pictures
I am a landscape photographer that likes to shoot mainly seascapes on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, Australia (a beautiful region containing many beaches, seaside towns and wineries). I intend to start selling my prints of this area to the public and am in the process of setting up a small business. Everything is running along smoothly, except for my logo! I have tried designing one myself but I don't really like it and the feedback I've received isn't great. Help!
People who live on the Mornington Peninsula permanently, have holiday homes on the Mornington Peninsula, or holiday on the Mornington Peninsula in summer time. There is a large population of baby boomers in this area so the logo would need to be appropriate for that audience.
I think the shape of the Mornington Peninsula needs to be included in the logo (see attached). This shape is instantly recognisable to people who live there, have a holiday home there or holiday there in summer. I have also attached the logo I've come up with. As you can see I used an image of a camera in the logo to make it clear that the company is a photography company and not a movie cinema on the Mornington Peninsula (I guess 'Peninsula Pictures' can be a bit misleading). I'm looking for a logo that tells the public what sort of company it is, while looking sophisticated at the same time. My photographs are of very high quality and won't be cheap, so I want a logo that reflects that. I really like the colours used in my logo, but not the logo itself. Thank you!

We suggest you not underestimate the staggering drawing power of the Garden State, especially to English companies that are now Indian companies. Jag is joining the club and moving its HQ and approximately 50 employees from Irvine, CA to New Jersey. Why is Jersey, already home to luxury automaker BMW, so appealing to Jaguar and Tata executives? Was it the Paramus Mall? Bon Jovi? Not quite.
First, the company already has a significant infrastructure already in place in the state. Second, it's a much shorter flight to New York from Mumbai and London, reducing executive jet lag. Third, Ratan Tata loves Springsteen. In fact, at a recent concert, Tata was heard to scream "Play Darkness On The Edge Of Town" repeatedly. [Photo: Getty Images, Auto News (Subs. Req.)

So how do you set DNS namserver under Sun Solaris UNIX system? The resolver is a set of routines in the C library that provide access to the Internet Domain Name System (DNS). The resolver configuration file contains information that is read by the resolver routines the first time they are invoked by a process. The file is designed to be human readable and contains a list of keywords with values that provide various types of resolver information.
Internet address (in dot notation) of a name server that the resolver should query. Up to MAXNS (currently 3, see
DNS Client Setup
First Create the file called /etc/resolv.conf – which includes the primary and secondary DNS server IP address for Solaris system, it can be your own DNS server or your ISPs DNS server:
# touch /etc/resolv.conf
Open /etc/resolv.conf using vi text editor:
# vi /etc/resolv.conf
Add the following lines to it:
search nixcraft.in nameserver 126.96.36.199 nameserver 18.104.22.168
- nameserver IP : It is IP of first DNS server
- search nixcraft.in : Default domain name to search. For example, if you type command nslookup www, it will search it as www.nixcraft.in
2) Enable the name resolving using DNS as follows:
# cp /etc/nsswitch.dns /etc/nsswitch.conf
3) Test new name server by running the nslookup command as follows:
# nslookup nixcraft.in
# /usr/sfw/sbin/nslookup nixcraft.in

One of Deadspin's own has a gruesome tale to tell. This is the time that I bumped my leg at the bodega the other night.
I had just moved and I was still getting used to the layout of the new neighborhood. After finishing up some chores, I decided to go to the local corner store for a quick bite to eat and a cold beverage. After paying for my items (quart of Tecate and a Jamaican beef patty, both excellent) I turned to leave and my shin struck a wooden crate of bananas that was on the floor. It really stung for a few seconds.
Thank you for your continued support of Deadspin. Dash is here tomorrow with some more Blood Week material and Stev D has the reigns on Sunday. Once again, big ups to the Emeritus for gettin' hitched. Hope the Deadspin Bunch in attendance behaves themselves in an occasionally ferocious, often ribald manner.

Just two days to a key meeting of the European Central Bank (ECB) and markets already appear to be lapping up hints of what the ECB might do to alleviate pressure on struggling members of the euro zone.
The euro received a boost overnight, and held onto the gains in Asia trade Tuesday, after ECB chief Mario Draghi was reported to have told a closed hearing of the European Parliament that the central bank could buy government bonds with maturities of up to three-years from euro zone countries such as Spain that have been grappling with high borrowing costs.
The ECB meets on Thursday against a backdrop of heightened expectationsthat it will now take decisive steps to end a debt crisis in the region and restore confidence in the beleaguered euro.
While the idea of the central bank stepping into buys bonds from troubled euro member states is not new, details of the kind of bonds it will buy is and the suggestion that the ECB will buy debt with a short duration is a positive sign, analysts tell CNBC.
"I think focusing on the shorter-end of the yield curve is the way to go," said Shane Oliver, Head of Investment Strategy and Chief Economist at AMP Capital in Sydney.
"If the ECB buys bonds of up to three-years then it's sending a signal to countries like Spain that if we (the ECB) buy your debt, we'll only do it for three years and after that you have to get your act together, I think that is reasonable," Oliver told CNBC Asia's Squawk Box on Tuesday.
"If they finance them for 10-years that's a different matter; that relieves the pressure on Spain a bit too much," he added.
Expectations of concerted action from the ECB have helped underpin equity markets, push down debt yields in Europe and boost the euro , which nudged above $1.26 overnight and has gained about 4.5 percent since Draghi pledged in late July to do whatever it takes to save the euro area from collapse.
"We have seen a bit of a bounce in the euro after the comments were leaked that Mario Draghi is considering buying bonds out to a three-year maturity. That was nice and specific, so we liked that and equities went higher as well," said Sean Callow, Senior Currency Strategist at Westpac Bank in Sydney.
"So there's no doubt that markets are expecting a positive outcome from the ECB and an in-principal agreement that the ECB does stand by to buy bonds, if the countries in question ask for help and jump through various hoops," Callow said.
Analysts appeared confident that ECB would not disappoint markets.
"Hopefully they have got a good package together and we will see that at the end of the week," Stephen Nash, Head of Strategy and Market Development at FIIG Securities told Squawk Box.
Certainly, more negative news for Europe on Tuesday appeared to be brushed aside as markets focused on the outcomeof the ECB meeting. Credit ratings agency Moody's said it has changed its outlook on the European Union's Aaa rating to negative to reflect the negative outlook on the ratings of the EU's big budget contributors - German, France, the UK and the Netherlands.
Analysts said that with optimism running high in financial markets, investors would continue to focus on the details of potential ECB bond-buying plans.
"He (Draghi) would really have to deliver an absolute clunker to disappoint markets," said Callow.

i do have a buffered store (infinite scrolling with >10.000 records).
so far it works fine as long there are records in the store.
if there are no records i get the exception
examining the sourceCode:"Uncaught Ext.Base.getRange(): PageMap asked for range which it does not have"
leads me to the thought, that an empty result from the server - no records - could never have a start or an and.Code:Ā Ā Ā Ā getRange: function(start, end) { Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā if (!this.hasRange(start, end)) { Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ext.Error.raise('PageMap asked for range which it does not have'); Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā }
is this a bug or is there a workaround for it or is there something i just don't know about the new usage of an infinite scrolling grid?
please help. stuck with this problem around two weeks now :-(

It's the kind of revelation that would melt the face of any die-hard Indiana Jones fan (this time, with joy): "Raiders of the Lost Ark," the 1981 adventure film that introduced that globe-trotting archaeologist, will receive a one-week Imax release next month, Lucasfilm said on Tuesday.
"For me, it's always been the bigger the screen, the better," Steven Spielberg, who directed "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and the three subsequent "Indiana Jones" sequels, said Tuesday in a telephone interview. "It's the only marked contrast we have to the generations that are seeing our movies on phones and hand-held platforms. It's a complete relief to be able to see a film that many people have just experienced on a palm-sized platform technology, suddenly hurled at that them on an Imax-sized screen."
Lucasfilm, the studio of the "Indiana Jones" executive producer George Lucas, said the Imax version of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" will receive a one-week theatrical release beginning on Sept. 7, in advance of the Blu-ray release of the Indiana Jones movies, which will go on sale Sept. 18. A list of theaters that will be showing the film can be found online at Imax.com.
Mr. Spielberg, who with the sound designer Ben Burtt supervised the conversion of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" to Imax, said that no special effects or other visual elements of the film were changed. The audio, he said, had been enhanced for surround sound: "When the boulder is rolling, chasing Indy through the cave, you really feel the boulder in your stomach, the way you do when a marching band passes by, and you're standing right next to it."

Here is a page of Studio Portraits. These are considered full length portraits and not head-and-shoulder portraits like from a photobooth. Basically, if you can't see the elbows, it's a head-and-shoulder portrait; everything else is a full length portrait.
These are all shot by a professional photographer.
These are all single subjects too. We'll leave the couples and trios for other pages.
Some of these have been cleaned up a bit, enhanced.

Yves Salomon - Meteo Jackets & Coats
Third-generation furrier Yves Salomon inherited a family business with roots in Siberia and the fur trade of early 1900s Saint Petersburg. By the 1960s, the Paris-based atelier was famed for its exquisite craftsmanship and trendsetting partnerships with couture houses including Revillon and Dior. An explosion of licensing partnerships in the 1980s brought it to the forefront of the fashion world, with designers from Azzedine Alaia and Jean Paul Gaultier to Prada and Yves Saint Laurent commissioning contracts. Today, the house of Yves Salomon works with over 100 types of fur and is known for its continued technical innovations. Meteo, the house's youngest and most fashion-forward line, incorporates its signature craftsmanship into daring and trend-driven designs.

Environmentalists hailed President Obama's plan to force existing power plants to reduce C02 emissions,as a long overdue, just-in-time action to stop global warming now expected to easily cross the 2 degree Celsius threshold that nations had agreed was dangerous. Obama is to speak on the issue at 1:30 EST at Georgetown University. Electric power plants are responsible for 40 percent of the nation's CO2 emissions, mostly from old coal-burners.
Andrew Steer, president and CEO of World Resources Institute, said on a conference call Monday with other environmentalists that a recent report by the International Energy Agency shows current policies have the earth on track to warm between 3.6 and 5.3 degrees Celsius, levels well beyond the danger level. Steer said the last time the earth was 3C warmer, sea level was more than 20 meters higher than it is today. "We are failing," Steer said. "The world desperately needs refreshed U.S. leadership."
Coal-fired power plants are the largest source of CO2 emissions in the U.S. and world. They also emit large amounts of other air and water pollutants, which would drop in tandem with CO2 emissions. Obama promised executive action on climate change in his second inaugural, following Congress's failure in 2009 to to pass cap and trade legislation. The Environmental Protection Agency has an obligation under a Supreme Court ruling that the agency is obligated to regulate CO2 emissions under the Clean Air Act. The move on existing coal-fired power plants is considered the biggest single action Obama could make on climate.
Asked about the economic costs, David Hawkins, director of climate programs for the Natural Resources Defense Council, said, "What's in it for the rest of the economy? Everything." He said the economy and "modern human civilization…is a product of a hospitable climate. Policymakers tend to "underestimate the degree to which human well being depends on the climate we've enjoyed for the last 20,000 years. We are tinkering with a system that is literally our life support."
Hawkins said policies by California and Northeastern states to rein in greenhouse gas emissions would probably count against new federal emissions targets with minor tweaks.
Republicans announced a war on the new policy, which , pouncing on a concession by the administration that is a "war on coal" is what's needed to attack climate change. Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell called the policy a war on jobs.
Local activists from Citizens Climate Lobby, after a pep talk from climate scientist James Hansen, swarmed Capitol Hill Tuesday pushing for a carbon tax, using President Obama's plan to cut CO2 emissions from power plants as an argument to Republicans to accept a free-market alternative to regulations to address climate change. Putting a price on carbon is widely seen as the most efficient way to control emissions.
Citizens Climate Lobby is pushing the "fee and dividend" approach advocated by Hansen and several prominent GOP economists that would remit the revenues from the tax back to consumers. Sens. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., and Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.,are pushing a version that would remit 60 percent (versus the 100 percent Hansen and other propose) of the revenue to consumers.
Steer said it is "indisputable" that putting a price on carbon "would be helpful," but "we all understand the politics." He said it is nonetheless important to make the case to conservatives that a "Pigovian tax" on bad stuff like carbon pollution is far preferable to the current system that taxes "good things like labor and jobs." He noted that even China is experimenting with carbon taxes, along with a dozen other countries.
Some GOP think tanks are debating the idea (see the recent R Street forum). But for now, Republicans, at least currently serving officials, are sticking with climate change denial.

Get DVD Talk Feeds
Joseph Campbell's contributions to the study of mythology and comparative religion are impossible to fully measure. More importantly, his teachings and zest for life and knowledge have benefited humanity in ways many people don't realize. His study and interpretations of mythology from multiple cultural angles are well documented in books and lectures, many of which were filmed in the years prior to his death and released on public telelvsion and subsequently, home video. Of those, "Mythos" is a fantastic series of college lectures on both Eastern and Western myth and religion, however the running time is well above what the average viewer might be willing to invest in order to broaden his or her horizons; furthermore, Campbell embarks on fascinating tangents, including some that require a working knowledge of certain background information to fully appreciate. The year prior to his death though, Campbell sat down with Bill Moyers to record six, nearly one-hour long interviews on the idea of myth, and the subsequent miniseries, "Joseph Campbell: The Power of Myth with Bill Moyers" proved a public television hit. Now 25 years later and following a few releases on DVD, "The Power of Myth: 25th Anniversary Edition" seeks to prove itself as the definitive release of the groundbreaking and insightful series.
Unlike "Mythos," "The Power of Myth" is incredibly structured, largely due to Bill Moyers' superior interviewing skills that let Campbell impart his wisdom to viewers, while managing to address questions the audience likely has and subtly steer Campbell back on topic should a tangent arise. The first episode is easily the most broad in appeal, focusing on the "Hero's Adventure," touching on the concept of the hero through the ages and in popular fiction, including "Star Wars." The second episode delves into the idea of religion as myth and its affect on society, while the third episode has a similar connection, but focuses more on the storytelling aspect of cultures and the use of myth in explaining the world at large. The final two episodes focus on the role of love and women in myth and concludes with the idea of reoccurring themes and symbols in all stories, across time and culture.
Campbell is captivating as expected, making complex ideas and sensitive subjects feel warm and inviting. He's not without controversy as he explores all religions equally and from an academic sense. Along the way, he introduces anecdotes to bring the topics discussed into a relevant light for viewers, as well as using the works of predecessors and contemporaries to strengthen his interpretations and ideas. He is without a doubt, one of the finest academics the world has seen in terms of educating the general public at large, on par with Carl Sagan and David Attenborough in sprit. Moyers, the other half of the series knows his role as interviewer/moderator and when to listen, showing great appreciation for his subject and the topics being addressed. This new release features newly recorded intros from Moyers introducing the episodes and relating the impact his talks with Campbell have had on a personal level as well as what he's heard from the average viewer. They are a nice anchor point in time, introducing the works of a great man to a new generation of viewers and a worthwhile addition to the series.
The 1.33:1 original aspect ratio transfers are a bit rough looking, although Athena has a disclaimer on the discs stating this. They are obvious products of video transfers and have the requisite low detail and muddles, warm colors.
The Audio
The The Dolby Digital English stereo tracks are a bit more impressive than the visual component, but the sound mix on Moyers and Campbell can feel off-balance at time and there's a tiny bit of audible hiss at some points. English SDH subtitles are included.
The Extras
A third disc features a nearly two-hour interview between Moyers and Campbell from 1981 on myth, a 30-minute interview between Moyers and George Lucas on Campbell and his influence, as well as a "clips" gallery of other Campbell programs. Rounding out the bonuses is some text-based info of Campbell's influences and a biography on Bill Moyers. As is standard with Athena releases a 12-page printed booklet accompanies the set with an overview of information of Campbell and his work.
Final Thoughts
Absolutely the most accessible of Campbell's works, "The Power of Myth" is a fantastic, well-paced series that explores concepts that seem basic on a surface level but reveal a fascinating, complex culture and historical influence. There is a wealth of information to be taken in here and repeat viewings would not disappoint. Athena has done a fine job of offering some substantial bonus features for this release. Highly Recommended.

The Dosh magic wallet is a super streamlined new take on the elastic flip wallet. The Dosh magic wallet has 4 card slots on the outside, and inside can securely hold banknotes and receipts. The Dosh magic wallet is the ultimate statement in minimalism and go anywhere functionality.
"Dosh wallet. Comfortable in your pocket and rather clever design."
"Great slim wallet. Handy wallet with plenty of compartments."
"Wallet. Great prompt delivery & price very happy."
"Its Magic. This is a handy little wallet that i have purchased for my son. I now want one."
"Great product. Process was quick and easy, received the goods quickly. Would use this company again, brilliant."
"great for travel. ."
"Not worth the cost and needs more pockets, but OK otherwise. I was expecting a more metallic, slimmer and longer product. I\'ve been using a leather/fabric magic wallet for years for roughly the same price and its better than this. Its hard to get the money in and out with the flaps (compared to elastic bands), and there are no pockets on the inside so i would have to carry less than i currently do. I think the card slots are also more difficult to get cards in and out of, but i only tried the wallet out for a short while when i got it, didn\'t even carry it in my pocket. It looks like it should keep the money/cards from falling out though."
"5 Star. Excellent quallity, very happy with purchase."
"Great wallet. Awesome service! Really enjoying this wallet. Once i got the hang of it, it's actually easier for me to put cash in and out of it than a standard wallet. Received my package very quickly. Would definitely buy from rush faster again."
"Cool wallet. Looks great. Nice small size and finish."

Meet the World
Diego from Mexico
What was your best Gothia cup and Meet the World experience?
The opening made me feel like a world cup, also I had the opportunity to play against other countries and show what Mexico can do.
My greatest experience was to know that my dreams can come true, because I never thought I could play in Europe. And other great experience was when my friend Paul the goalkeeper, stopped a penal kick, gave us the victory in Guadalajara.
It was an unforgettable experience when I shoot a penalty kick and we won, I was proud of all the support I had from my father. Also when we met Swedish girls, and tried to speak with them.
Nusrat from India
What was your best Gothia cup and Meet the World experience?
I was very happy about going to Sweden. We got experience of different cultures from different countries. I learnt what it was like playing against different teams and co-operate with other people.
I was very impressed with the attitude of Swedish girls. They always extended support on the field and apologized to us if they tackled hard or made us fall.
..My first ever visit to Sweden it was an unforgettable moment and memorable trip for me. It was a mesmerizing experience to see the many, huge pitches as we approached day 1 of the tournament.
The opposing teams' players were much stronger physically than our team. My confidence was boosted as we scored goals and that was the memorable moment for me. Now, whenever I play I India recall that team and play with full confidence and with true spirit of the game.
Team France - Participating in the Kim Källström trophy
What was your best Gothia cup and Meet the World experiences?
Our best Gothia Cup experience was the opening ceremony: it was nice to see and meet all the team. All countries were represented. It was also the first time we were on a plane and we liked it very much. It was also very nice to see Kim Källström.
It was very exciting to learn that we would to go to Gothia Cup!
During the flight to Gothenburg, we were allowed into the cockpit to see the pilot.
Deng from China
What was best with your Meet the World experience?
During the Meet the World tournament in Beijing, the most unforgettable one was the match against Anhui Province. At the very last moment I scored and got our team the chance to the play-off game. In the final, we won the other team by 5:1 and won the champion. It was awesome.
We really had a good time in Gothenburg. I met a lot of friends from other countries. Especially the last day, we went to Liseberg and had a wonderful day.
Abdul and Muhamma from Malaysia
What was your best Gothia cup and Meet the World experience?
Muhammed (left) - In the pre-event tournament, we became the champion over other eleven other teams representing their respectively districts in the state of Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia, knowing that we will go to Sweden for the Gothia Cup finale, I cried with joy…..
It was an unforgettable moment playing outside our country. I have more forces and gained spirits in football to consider as part of my future career. Thank for giving me that invaluable experience.
I have got many new friends from all over the world. I'm still in contact with few of them.
Abdul (right) - It's a once in the lifetime opportunity to me, playing with international teams especially with European and Swedish soccer clubs.
I have gotten to know different cultures and people, we exchanged souvenirs and e-mail addresses.
Huang from China,
What was your best Gothia cup and Meet the World experience?
We played really hard to the final of Gothia Cup 'girls-12'. The last game was against one of the strongest team from Sweden. We were one score behind and about to lose the game. But at the last moment, our coach sent me to the forward. 4 minutes before the game ends, I scored and made the game even. We celebrated, hugged each other, laughed and cried. At last we won the penalty game by 4:3 and became the winner of Gothia Cup. It was the best moment in my life.
Nizar from Marocco
What was your best Gothia cup and Meet the World experience?
What I appreciated the most, was meeting people from different cultures and nationalities, discussing and sharing these moments with them was an amazing experience. Also I loved the opening ceremony, it was amazing!
I loved to play with teams from other cities, they all had a very good level, and it challenged me to give my best in the met the world tournament, also the referees were very professional, I really appreciated it.
I also appreciated the organization of the Gothia Cup event, I wish you could replicate such event more and more, a lot of children are waiting for their chance. I hope that SKF can continue in bringing hope and joy to young people like me.
Irving from Mexico
What was your best Gothia cup experience and Meet the World?
Playing against other children from other countries and see different places, and of course the games that we won. And also when we won the Meet the World qualifier in Puebla and got to travel to Sweden. It is the best trip I've ever had, because I had a dream of playing in Europe. I was very happy to share this experience & moments with my friends and coaches.

Weekly Fraser Valley Sport fishing column; May 5 to 12, 2014
Over the last few months I have been looking through all the popular sport fishing magazines. Like most people I have my favorite rags, but I learned years ago that sticking to them exclusively would give me a warped vision of what is going on in sport fishing. As is to be expected, I have obsevered things that are great and others not so great.
In my researching, I found many disheartening photos. Look through these magazines and you will find page after page of very large fish. Dont get me wrong; I would not deny anyones right to show fish photos; its the way they are currently portrayed in the magazines leaves nothing to the imagination. The magic that kept many of us awake all night before our next fishing trip is gone. Not too many years ago, the majority of photos and stories in these magazines were of average Joes, with average fish. The bar was set a level where novice anglers, who applied themselves, could attain a fulfilling level of success within their first few seasons. Today if a novice was to measure his or her success against what is being displayed, these same novices would find themselves defeated. I am not saying we need to turn back, that would not work. I believe a better balance is what is needed. If we could do that, I believe we could excel in encouraging other anglers.
A pleasing observation I made, was how the barriers between angling methods are disappearing. We now have anglers using bass methods and lures, to successfully catch steelhead. While there are fly fishermen catching trophy bass with chironomid and dragonfly (fly) patterns. I myself have found success catching rainbows during the sedge hatch, using pan fish poppers. The lines are becoming more blurred every day; and personally I believe that is one of the best developments I have seen in twenty years.
The Report

On the 50th anniversary of the 1962 completion of the iconic building The Nordic pavilion by Sverre Fehn, the Museum of Finnish Architecture proposed a Venice Biennale exhibition worthy of its Nordic "house". The exhibition got the name LIGHTHOUSES. 30 contemporary Finnish, Swedish and Norwegian architecture practices were chosen to present a so called architectonic identity-box that was embodying in material and sensory character the principles, sensibilities and values of the practice together with the contemporary Nordic issues of economic and environmental ethics. Keeping within the measurements of 600x600x600 mm the identity-box was to be attuned to the spatial and atmospheric character of the Nordic Pavillion.
The intention of PET is to include the Nordic tradition of craftsmanship as well as making use of the qualities of daylight flowing through a layered structure. By creating a grid built up by one singular module, a diagonal slice of a PET-bottle, a light-weight and tactile form is constructed. The cube is describing mass, although being almost weightless, as well as diffusing and reflecting the light shining through it.
The choice of PET material was made because of its recyclable character, but also because of it being plastic - a material sometimes used by Sverre Fehn to form structures that would diffuse the light.
Materials are often defined as of a "low" or "high" value within a certain context. By switching their usual realm, adaption or by expanding their field of function, that sense of value could be altered with amazing results.

Il Testo della della canzone Di: State Of Grace – Raekwon
[Intro: Tony Montana "Scarface" sample]
It's those guys, man
It's the fucking bankers, the politicians
They the ones, don't wanna make coke illegal
So they can make the fucking money
And then they get the fucking votes
You fighting the bad guys, they the bad guys!
[Intro: RZA (Raekwon)]
Trash... yes!
(And close the fucking door, man) Wu-Tang!

(Stand... shit man, fuck these motherfuckers, come on, man)
Nigga what!
CREAM vanquish, my queen keeps it's stainless
Cracks and Brussels, screwing everything famous
Love to hustle, my ring, call it big Uranus
Cats that scuffle, crawl on you and break fingers
That's what's up, some saw me in them bone rangers
Me and my homey, we bought like forty things up
Long as you owe me, you won't get a damn thing, son
Shoot off your kangol, while you in the plane, fronting
Stop, admire me, ya'll should of fired me
Cause when I come back, it's me and my diary
None of that bullshit, few men got tired of me
My niggaz is wrong, they hated, and they lied to me
Explain the saga, fuck yo, your chain liver
Fuck the blinging, have my money by five, to me
Ya'll 'pose to bring it, fuck you and your whole variety
I'm bringing my hammers, I beat it like, five to three
[Chorus: Raekwon]

Yeah, yeah, I'm coming, yo, to get it from you
Place that crown in the garbage, or you sitting on
A few things mattered, you was just a corner don
That got shot dead like Malcolm in the Audubon

Dan Maes, Tom Tancredo both staying in the governor's race
UPDATE 4:36 p.m. | With comment from Dan Maes
Dan Maes will continue running for governor, his campaign said today, despite calls from the GOP establishment and Tea Party groups to drop out.
"After speaking with, and hearing from, numerous Coloradans – from former Senators to family farmers – I've determined that I cannot turn my back on the 200,000 voters who nominated me to run for this office," said Maes. "During this time of deliberation, I listened equally to those who wanted me in this race and those who did not, and after internalizing that advice, I'm proud to say I'm in it to win it.
Tom Tancredo reiterated this afternoon that under no circumstances will he pull out of the governor's race, and said he considers Maes "no longer a viable candidate."
"It doesn't matter what Dan Maes does or what the Republicans do," Tancredo told The Post. "I don't care if they bring back Abraham Lincoln to run. From this moment on, I'm never going to answer this question again. I'm here to stay.

Introducing KDE 4 KNetworkManager
One of the few utility programs that are used every day on mobile devices is a wireless networking tool, but somehow this is one of the last applications to appear for KDE 4. With the autumn 2009 crop of Linux distributions, a usable client for the widely used NetworkManager system finally makes its debut.
Why so long?
So why did a native KDE 4 version of what is basically a system tray icon take three and a half KDE 4 releases to complete? There are several reasons. The original NetworkManager client was a GNOME applet and was developed in tandem with the server. Because of this, the NetworkManager interfaces for client developers were only partially documented. The NetworkManager system consists of a system daemon that receives network settings from a pair of settings services, one of which is run by the first local logged in user. This service supplies configuration information by placing Connection objects on the system bus. A client application sends commands to the service to activate these connections. One of the first tasks, therefore, was to take the D-Bus interface documentation system from Telepathy and apply it to the NetworkManager D-Bus interface. This was contributed to the upstream NetworkManager project, enabling up-to-date HTML documentation to be produced at build time so that other client authors can work without reading the NetworkManager C sources. Another reason was that the existing KDE 3 KNetworkManager needed many improvements to its user interface to fit in with other KDE 4 apps. It used the Qt3 D-Bus bindings, so this layer had to be completely rewritten as well. The current KDE 4 code shares only a few core algorithms with its predecessor. Finally, the KDE 3 KNetworkManager clients for NM 0.6 and 0.7 were developed entirely in-house at SUSE and never merged into KDE main modules, so few developers joined in and most of the work was done when necessary by SUSE engineers.
A new beginning, and a false dawn
The KNetworkManager menu
Will Stephenson of the openSUSE KDE Team took over responsibility for the KDE 4 NetworkManager client in 2007 from another team and began coding the base D-Bus layers using the new Qt4 D-Bus bindings. At the KDE 4 Launch Event in Mountain View in January 2008, he met with Celeste Paul, Christopher Blauvelt, Sebastian Kügler and others to develop a concept for a user-friendly yet powerful NM client. It was to be designed as a native Plasma Network Management applet for KDE 4.1, and shipped on several distributions. But this client had more than its share of flaws, mostly because the team spent much of its time dealing with layout problems in the very new QGraphicsView classes, instead of ensuring that NetworkManager features worked, and the design had grown naturally over time, resulting in an amorphous structure that was hard to work with. Then in May 2009, the KDE eV offered to sponsor a coding sprint in Oslo, where seven developers met and produced a workable design to go forward with. Throughout Summer 2009 this was refined, implemented and tested. The problems with the previous implementation led the team to produce a strongly layered design so that a simpler System Tray applet could be written first, running as an independent process so that any bugs could not crash Plasma, with most of the code in libraries that a subsequent Plasma applet can build on.
What KNetworkManager offers
So what does the new KNetworkManager offer? At the least, a NetworkManager client provides user controllable networking. A system daemon receives configuration and commands from user programs. This is what the default nm-applet tool for GNOME offers. But since we were creating a new client from whole cloth, and with the experience of two KDE 3 clients and nm-applet to work from, we decided to improve on existing designs to make it as usable as possible. For example, where there are many wireless networks available, showing all the networks all the time in the applet's menu results in a screen-filling popup, making it hard to spot the network you wish to use. Instead, the applet only shows networks that you have used before out of those that are present. To connect to another network, or a previously used hidden network, a dialog provides a scrollable complete list, which can be easily filtered with a search line. Even though KNetworkManager is not built with the fashionable QGraphicsView used by Plasma for its UI, Qt allows a lightweight yet attractive interface, with menu items that display wireless strength and detailed security information, while other designs are still mockups. You can connect to networks with a single click in the popup menu, and its configuration dialog plugs into the standard KDE System Settings tool, making it easy to find there or in the popup menu.
But that's not all we managed to fit in. Due to the modular structure of the code, we've already been able to attract new developers like Paul Marchouk to add polish and enhancements while the core was being completed. Features such as setting custom icons for a connection, configurable tooltips for both the hardcore networking specialist and the first time user, a choice between one icon for everything, or an icon per network interface (like in Windows), and a configuration UI for IP addresses that is 'better than OS X' have come from new KDE contributors. Other tweaks like storing passwords and other secrets securely or forcing them to be entered every time please administrators, and a Wireless Scan display lets you see what access points are in the neighbourhood.
But what about Plasma?
Some readers will be asking about the Plasma applet now. While this isn't being released yet, it hasn't stood still. The Oslo sprint design splits the user interface from the configuration UIs and the D-Bus services that do most of the work, so 90% of the KNetworkManager code will be used directly by the Network Management Plasma applet. Meanwhile, Sebastian Kügler is continuing to polish the code, and the layout issues have been fixed in Qt. We expect that the Plasma applet will be released as part of KDE 4.4.
Future directions
While we hope that users of openSUSE 11.2, Kubuntu 9.10 and Fedora 12 will agree that KDE 4 KNetworkManager is useful for daily wired and wireless networking, and is mostly functional for 3G mobile broadband connections, there is still a lot to be done. The number of possible networking configurations mean there are still known and undiscovered bugs, which are being fixed now. A set of final icons are being prepared by the Oxygen team. Improvements for KDE 4.4 will include a minimal UI when creating new connections, showing only the password fields necessary, and better input verification to produce connections that work first time. Mobile Broadband will be improved by the inclusion of a database of ISPs, and support for the ModemManager interface will deliver cellular signal strength. IPv6 configuration should be available soon, and it will also be possible to create and edit system-wide connections so networking is up before users log in. And by passing information about connection usage to Nepomuk, queries such as 'Which files did I download at the office yesterday?' become possible. Finally, we hope that backends for other network management stacks such as wicd, ConnMan, and the in-house tools used by Mandriva and Pardus will be written, so that a KDE user will feel at home no matter which distro he/she picks up.
Distributions working for KDE, not the other way round
Most of the the KDE 4 Network Management stack was developed by Will Stephenson as a Novell employee, but it is important to point out that this is an open and Free development, with and for every other distribution and end user to benefit from. Throughout the development we have liaised with Fedora and Kubuntu and exchanged bug reports, experiences, patches and even icons. The source code is in KDE SVN, and will shortly move to Extragear, and developer documentation will be available at TechBase. We hope that this serves as a model for other cross-distribution cooperation to benefit all of KDE.
Why extragear?
Isnt kdebase the right place? I dont like the fact that all cool stuff are moving away from KDE/.
Edit: I forgot to mention that I've been using it from months ago and it always just worked for me. Good job.
By emilsedgh at Sat, 2009/11/07 - 6:40pm
Why extragear?
Quite simple I would say, for several reasons.
It still need work, both stability and feature wise. So tying it to KDEs 6 month cycle does not make sense. If they do that, it should enter feature freeze about now, like the rest of KDE 4.4. And no changes would go in except bug fixes, locking the current feature set until KDE 4.5.
It depends on 3rd party software, Network Manger, that do not follow KDE release schedules. With current KDE release schedule, it will in worst case lead to new versions of Network Manger to be unsupported for 7 months(release cycle + freeze).
Staying in Extragear give the opportunity to have more frequent (feature) releases and the possibility to adopt to upstream Network Manger releases.

wicd would have been a better choice. (n/t)
Never have liked networkmanager and never will.
By stumbles at Sat, 2009/11/07 - 6:59pm
I loathe network
I loathe network manager.
Unless there is a reliable way to make connections in the command line then it is worthless. Reliable meaning simple commands.
Wicd is nice and it works well. Mandriva's connection tools are far better than network manager.
Its interesting to see reliable network management tools that existed before network manager, in the case of drakconnect, be completely ignored.
By tubasoldier at Mon, 2009/11/09 - 5:35pm
I must say that Mandrivas network tools are great, but I do not like because it is written as GTK+. So it does not fit to KDE4 well. Mandriva should write all their tools as backends and then offer frontends with GTK+ and Qt. Currently the drak tools for networking are great even from CLI. Mayby the best.
By Fri13 at Tue, 2009/11/10 - 3:14pm
Actually yes, I recently tried wicd and it is, for the networks that I have had to use, incomparably more robust than even the GNOME NetworkManager applet (nm-applet), and its UI makes the most sense too and is really good at asking you only the bare minimum questions (connect by only knowing the passphrase). Anyway, just wanted to say that I was glad to read above that the KDE-networkmanager developers intend to support wicd as a backend, and I also hope that they can borrow good ideas from the wicd UI.
By Bjacob at Sat, 2009/11/07 - 7:36pm
and wicd can be compiled without the gui stuff.
ya and you already have it built in (so to speak with kdebase4-workspace) as solid_wicd.so.
By stumbles at Sat, 2009/11/07 - 7:57pm
Does solid_wicd actually do something in 4.3.x ? In fresh Kubuntu 9.10 installation I had an option for selecting wicd backend in Solid config, but it had no (visible) effect. Wicd was installed, NetworkManager removed.
And I must say that I'm also one who prefers wicd over (K)NetworkManager, atleast for wireless and for my hw and network setup.
By margusl at Mon, 2009/11/09 - 12:51pm
Yes and no. Yes as your environment reacts to connections detected by Wicd, and applications querying network information from Solid will get that from Wicd.
No as the Wicd backend for the NM applet is not ready yet. Unfortunately due to lack of time on my side it got delayed (as I am also working on polkit, which is a requirement for NM, and all that stuff that follows). I have already something fairly working, namely a KCM port of the wicd configuration (http://gitorious.org/wicdkde/kcmwicd) and I hope I will get the wicd backend done after my exams, in december, hoping nothing gets in my way this time. Just watch out Planet KDE for news.
By Dario Freddi at Mon, 2009/11/09 - 8:16pm
Cool, but still not for me
Wake me up when KNetworkManager can import .pcf files for my VPN connections. Until then I stay with nm-applet.
By KAMiKAZOW at Sat, 2009/11/07 - 7:41pm
need to learn with nm-applet
I was using knetworkmanager in the beginning (since it was the no-so-good plasma applet in openSuSE) and I think it should be as easy to use as nm-applet for GSM connections.

Does mobile broad band work?
Last time I checked knetworkmanager mobile broadband was not working. Has anything changed?
By jithin1987 at Sun, 2009/11/08 - 1:49am
nice article, welcome kde extention, some unfriendly comments
last thing first:
i like the article! it is a nice write-up that gives some insights into an interesting part of a modern and mobile "desktop". it also tries to explain a bit what went wrong (why there _was_ no proper default solution for wireless on KDE).
much of the negativity seems aimed at the network manager which is in very welcome tool: we need a good solution for this that integrates with the rest of KDE. and it just had an amazing redesign. i love the way it shines on kubuntu 9.10!
so be a bit grateful ok? it's free remember!
By cies at Sun, 2009/11/08 - 10:57pm
Negative Commenters
I thought that both, negative and positive comments, were appreciated.
By Álan Crístoffer at Mon, 2009/11/09 - 3:38pm
Good work, Will. Thanks
By Mark Kretschmann at Sun, 2009/11/08 - 7:58am
Yes, thank you Will and others for this important part of KDE. And also for the nice article.
By Ján Halaša at Sun, 2009/11/08 - 8:56am
More than one thinks
I just found that PPTP was supported natively with the current KNetworkManager. Very neat! Thanks!
By gwittenburg at Sun, 2009/11/08 - 3:01pm
Ability to run scripts on Connect
I have a script that automatically reconfigures a local HTTP proxy, so that I don't have to reconfigure all proxy settings in all the applications when working on a different network. (In case you are interested, here it is: http://www.yeap.de/blog2.0/archives/212-Road-Warriors-Proxy.html).
With the old KDE 3 knetworkmanager it was possible to configure commands to run on certain actions with the notifications framework. The KDE 4 Network Manager does not offer this possibility, so I had to switch to wicd.
So it would be great, if notifications could be made available for knetworkmanager 4 again for feature parity with the old version.

usability issues
Nice job guys, KNetworkManager is definitely getting better. But there are quite important issues:
By tombart at Mon, 2009/11/09 - 9:56am
It's early days and what is there already is great, but some indication of whether a network is encrypted would be great - you go somewhere new, you want to quickly see what open networks are available, not waste time trawling through private encrypted networks.
By Stuart Jarvis at Mon, 2009/11/09 - 10:09am
I do not know what version
I do not know what version the OpenSUSE 11.2 use, but it has the security icons and link quality information.
By Fri13 at Tue, 2009/11/10 - 3:17pm
Thanks for the additional info
By Stuart Jarvis at Tue, 2009/11/10 - 11:18am
Glad to hear that. Is this going to be in update or we have to wait till next Kubuntu 10.04?
Other thing, when AP is down (electricity blackout) KNetworkManager keeps asking for password (although it was established connection and now the AP is no longer available), just error message (disconnected) would be enough.
I love the possibility of choice, but in most cases user doesn't have a clue what kind of crazy settings should be used for a wifi connection. So a very simple dialog with meaningfully detected parameters would be nice. And on some "advanced" card others nice possibilities for special cases.
Regardless these objections I appreciate your work, you made a huge step in development of KNM.
By tombart at Wed, 2009/11/11 - 12:55am
Many thanks!
Your work looks great - and seeing what is about to come is even better!
Can't wait for KDE 4.4 :)
Many thanks for your work!
By Arne Babenhauserheide at Thu, 2009/11/12 - 7:41am
sounds great. One thing i
sounds great.
By Beat Wolf at Mon, 2009/11/09 - 4:18pm
Good to see progress!
Thanks to Will and the Team! It looks like soon we'll have the coolest NetworkManager out there. :-)
By FreeMinded at Mon, 2009/11/09 - 10:40pm
Mobile connections
I'm impressed by the new network manager! The applet works fine and all my connections are really stable. With the new package delivered with my current Ubuntu (Karmic) I'm thinking of tethering.
I have a Nokia E51. I see several signs of possible mobile connections, but can't manage to get it working. Is it possible to provide some more information about this topic? Wired and wireless connections are pretty straight forward and even vpn isn't hard to configure. But I can't find out how to complete a mobile connection.
Thanks for having this information shared, I hope more articles about the network manager possibilities are written in the near future :)
By JSluiman at Tue, 2009/11/10 - 10:06pm
Is KNetworkManager going to handle VPNs as well? An historical problem with KDE has always been the lack of a user-friendly VPN client. I know, I know, there's Kvpn but we're talking "user-friendly" here or, if you prefer, "noob-friendly". I admit that my last try with Kvpn dates back a few months but, in my experience, you need to know connection parameters in detail, too much in detail (not to mention all the "you need to install this or that daemon beforehand" error messages) for a successful connection. I have never succeeded, and google tells me that I'm definetely not alone. With other OSes (guess which two?) I've never ever had any serious problem. Will KNetworkMagager fix this?
By Hect at Wed, 2009/11/11 - 3:49pm
VPN support
It's nice to hear that PPTP will work fine in KNM! Then I will throw out nm-applet at once. Well, only mobile broadband support would be issue for me.
By Erirofu Urajimiru at Thu, 2009/11/12 - 3:08am
VPN support
I think that a good part of "user-friendly" is provide good defaults. A good client should provide a few common case templates to use as a base for your own profiles. If I need to connect to a Windows Vpn (one hell of a common case) I should tinker with domain names and such, maybe more but definetly not with handshakes or that kind of stuff. I totally agree with you about the good error messages though.
By Hect at Thu, 2009/11/12 - 10:10am
Although you have gone to great detail describing this and what it is capable of doing, it seems as if there is much more work to be done. We look forward to further updates now and in the future. casino en ligne
By George Buchanan at Wed, 2009/11/11 - 5:59pm
Nice article
Thank you for the article, Will!
It is nice to read and interesting from front to back - and the images help making it feel easy to understand, though you talk about quite deep issues.
The insight into development processes and the future directions made it especially interesting for me. The last part also set a nice political statement, I think. It hit the "distributions are a part of what makes free software different" argument which I also found in a Gentoo blog a week ago (with which I agree).
And I really can't name a part I missed :)
By Arne Babenhauserheide at Thu, 2009/11/12 - 7:52am
This is the first version of KNetworkManager where all my usecases are implemented. ;)

Pacheco's pairing with De La Rosa not intentional
SAN DIEGO -- Rockies manager Walt Weiss said he hasn't made Jordan Pacheco the personal catcher for left-hander Jorge De La Rosa, even if it looks that way.
Pacheco's pairing with De La Rosa on Wednesday night against the Padres marked the third straight time they were together. This came after two well-chronicled games -- one in Spring Training, the other on Opening Night -- where it was clear De La Rosa and Wilin Rosario were having trouble with signals.
The problem with assuming that De La Rosa is being kept from Rosario, whose defense often comes under scrutiny, is his two starts with Pacheco were almost identical to the one with Rosario. De La Rosa had dominant periods, but he ran into trouble and lasted just 4 1/3 innings each time.
"It's not," Weiss said when asked if this is a personal pairing. "You probably don't believe me. That wasn't the issue. I wanted Wilin to be in there against left-handed pitching we faced the first couple of nights. He swings the bat very well against left-handed.
"I need to get Jordan in there just because he hasn't been out there in a little while. Those were the bigger factors as to who was catching Jorge tonight. Wilin will catch Jorge plenty this year."
Facing left-handers on the first two nights of the series against the Padres, Rosario was 4-for-8 with a home run and three RBIs. In De La Rosa's last start, at San Francisco, Rosario was scratched before the game because of a left wrist strain from a previous game.

Hello All,
I am in dire need of help. I have a listview with a dropdown and 3 textboxes associated with it.I have 2 such combinations in the same listview. On dropdown selection, the 3 textboxes need to be populated based on the value selected from the dropdown. So my SQL statement, looks in the database for corresponding values for the item selected from the dropdown.Now, I need to insert all these values(dropdown, 3 textboxes) in the database.
Everything is working fine, but with postbacks. This is the first time, I am making a web-application and I understand that the page refresh on each dropdown selection is not acceptable.
I tried using ajax update panel. worked on it on and off for a couple of months, but just couldn't get it to work.
Help Puhleeeez!!!!!!!!!!!!
