Puppy 4.3.1 -- bug reports and suggestions
Puppy 4.3.1, the bugfix release of 4.3, is released!
Took a long time to upload to ibiblio.org, but finally got there! Download from ibiblio only for now, as not yet filtered through to the mirrors:
When the mirrors catch up, you can get to them via the main Puppy download page:
There are lots of ISOs to choose from:
...the main guy, that will suit most people, is '
', size 104.9MB.
The main announcement and release notes page is here:
...scroll down that page and you will see the list of differences between 4.3 and 4.3.1.
Note, I will monitor this forum thread for bug reports and feedback, but most of my attention will be shifting to development of Woof.
Some bugs and suggestions will of course be relevant to Woof, but the main thrust of development of the next Puppy in the 4.x series, 4.4, is being coordinated by technosaurus, plus some helpers.
Those guys will probably monitor this thread too, for anything relevant to 4.4. Also there are a couple of 4.4-specific threads on this forum.

I did a download and update from 4.3
Used md5sum because the directories have not been changed from uploading yet . . .That went OK
Is it possible with the GTKhash calculate to drag and drop files? Not sure who created that prog but that would be nice
Also added the devx and installed from ppm (Puppy Package Manager) LXRAD GUI designer.
So far so good.
This may be a limitation of the GTK+ GUI but if you resize the ppm,
the categories do not move to the left, giving you the benefit of more info. I thought this could be solved by using a <frame>?
thanks Barry
thanks everyone

Drag and drop with GTKhash works for me.
I open GTKhash, and then drag and drop the file to be checked to the file line.
The file name then appears on the file line, I click the Hash button and it does it's job.

Hi, I downloaded the delta file pup430.iso:pup431.iso, created the pup431.iso and checked the md5sum and it matched exactly.
Then I created a folder (pup431) with the extracted vmlinuz, initrd.gz and pup-431.sfs as usual. (I kept in the folder pup430 - my 4.3 frugal install - in the same partition). Updated grub and booted.
It booted then came a message that I was upgrading (strange since it was in it's own folder) and then came a kernel panic - not syncing.
I'm in Puppy 4.3 now, I opened the folders to see if it was ok and found that (mysteriously) there was a pup-431.sfs inside the pup430 folder as well as the original pup-430.sfs.
Unless I had made some mistake (which I suspect I haven't), Puppy saw that there was another Puppy nearby and mixed things. In the partition in which the folders are located the are an opera and profile folders that were created when I installed Opera in Puppy 4.3. Maybe this confounded the boot process.
Anexed are screenshots of the partition I have the Puppy folders (pup430 and pup431), and pup430 (with its mysterious new files)and pup431 folders.
If it's just a matter of deleting the pup430 folder and the opera and profile folders, for me it's ok since I have backups of what matters.
- deleted and solved.

Post subject: 431 Final Observations
NOTE: I observed and reported items 1 through 4 below in 431 RC1 and 431 RC2. I am now reporting the same in 431 Final. Frankly, I am disappointed so see three significant problems ignored. Why?
SQLiteManager and CPU Freq Scaling are important applications. Worse, we have all known about the SFS-related desktop icon reset problem for many months. User's new to Puppy take one look at that mess and re-boot their Windows install. It makes for a very bad first impression. 431 has a lot going for it. I hate to see it marred by such things.
Ongoing report of issues observed in 431 Final on c.2004 Athlon-based desktop (frugal) and/or c.2000 Intel P4-based laptop (CD).
4. SQLiteManager "freeze" after selecting Tools/Options.
3. Bootmanager loading or unloading of SFS files still resets desktop icons!
2. No compatible modules found by CPU Frequency Scaling Tool. Compatible modules are found for both systems under Puppy 430.
1. No ROX menu entry for Partview app. Note also that "free" figures returned by Partview do not agree with those returned by df command. Differences range between 10% and 45%. I suggest Partview *not* use the "alert" color red.

When trying to compile a driver (wifi module):

Installed kernel_src-22.214.171.124-patched.sfs4.sfs

Post subject: Re: Puppy 4.3.1 -- bug reports and suggestions
puppy 4.3 with and without the bug fix applied won't see eth0. Do I need to compile a module, too?
if anyone needs kernel source it is in http://puppylinux.com/sources/kernel-184.108.40.206/.
Or, for something smaller, try
Tar.gz will install with a click just like a .pet file.

The problem I was having was solved by deleting my Puppy 4.3 frugal install (pup430, opera and profile folders). Sorry if it was rather a matter of general help than a bug.

Post subject: EeePC audio + crashing window blacks desktop
The problem reported above by mawebb88 on the EeePC 901 is similar to the problem on the EeePC 900A. There is a slider visible, but it always starts muted. There are other issues in getting microphones to work. Still investigating how Xandros does this, as their audio works well on the same machine.
On an entirely different machine, a Shuttle FS51G with a 1.7 GHz Celeron 2 and 512 MB RAM, I've had a problem of the desktop crashing, while using Puppy to examine a Windows system partition, when there are too many files in a directory. (You know what a mess you find in a Windows system folder.) I may have just been lucky using Puppy for this before, but now I've had the problem happen twice in a few minutes. The panel remains on the screen, but everything else is black. I've been restarting the window manager to get the desktop back.

Good point, agree 100%
On to my re-reports..
I can confirm the same thing for 4.3.1-final as from here:
This only goes for my Compaq P4 lappy with the new kernel, however, and the older kernel works fine (I'm using it now).
The Dell P3 lappy seems to work mighty fine with any kernel.
And I've reported this elsewhere before: since 4.3, Puppy has been ignoring the power button on both of my laptops, so now I always have to use the Menu->Shutdown->PowerOff procedure.
EDIT: it also ignores my Athlon desktop's power button.
Other than that, frugal install boots in 25s (CPU underclocked to XP1500+, 640MB RAM), which is nice, I'm also gonna try full HDD install + full CPU speed one of these days

Post subject: Upgrade a frugal install from 421 to 431
Subject description: Major problems
Has anybody tried upgrading a frugal installation of Puppy 421 to 431?
I found several major problems and did not succeed with the upgrade.
First, the pup_safe.2fs file of 421 is now called pupsafe.2fs. Okay, one could rename the file. But it does prevent an automatic update when starting from the new 431 CD.
Next, after renaming the pup_safe file, the version upgrade starts optimistically, but neither xorg nor xvesa will work.
Then I reinstalled 421 from a backup, booted into 421 and removed the nVidia driver plus any sfs.
Again renaming to pupsafe.2fs and booting from the 431 CD. This time xorg works and the JWM desktop opens. Yet, most icons are misplaced or lost their picture file. So far, this could be adjusted for manually. But when I installed the new nVidia driver NVIDIA-173.14.20-k18.104.22.168-1.pet found through this post
X crashes and cannot be revived.
The only solution was a complete new frugal install of Puppy 431.
Does anybody have a similar experience? Or is this just me?
I do recall previous version upgrades worked by just starting from the new CD. Was this intentionally changed? If so...why?
Thanks for helping me understand.
Thanks gnz11; that makes things clearer. I have resorted to a new frugal of 431 anyway; you confirm this to be the route of choice. So be it.

Pup-431 Live CD won't boot.
I've been running Puppy 4.2.1 live cd, with two save files.
I downloaded the 105MB pup-431 iso, md5 checked it, burnt it to cd, and tried to boot. At the "Performing a "switch-root" to the layered file system" step, I get "Kernel panic- not synching: Attempted to kill init!".
The cd boots ok in the family Windows machine.
Puppy machine is old 600MHz Intel Celeron, 256MB ram.
Do I have to delete the two old pupsave files? Forget it!
I'll check to see if there is any other old junk on the hard drive, but I don't think so.
EDIT: there was, there isn't, didn't make any difference.
EDIT: I'll try an older kernel.

Concord Grapes and Health
For well over a century, families have been enjoying the goodness of the Concord grape as Welch's 100% Grape Juice. But, it's only been in the last 20 years or so that scientists have uncovered just how super this superfruit is for health.
Read on for more on the research-backed benefits of 100% grape juice made with Concord grapes:
Heart Health
Decade's worth of research says that thanks to the dark purple Concord grape and its polyphenol power, 100% grape juice can help support a healthy heart. In fact, Concord grapes and their juice deliver many of the same polyphenols and heart health benefits as red wine.
One of the key ways that 100% grape juice supports heart health is by promoting healthy circulation, keeping your blood pumping and energy flowing. To read more about the science linking 100% grape juice to heart health and healthy circulation, visit grapescience.com.
Mind Health
While more research is definitely needed, early science says that the polyphenol-powered Concord grapes in 100% grape juice may benefit cognitive performance in both older and younger adults. Check out the below to learn about 100% grape juice and the brain and, to geek out on even more science, visit grapescience.com.
Two small studies have shown that drinking Concord grape juice vs. an added sugar, low-polyphenol drink (placebo) improves memory function in older adults with age-related memory decline.1,2 In one of those studies, the researchers used a technique called functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to look at specific areas of the brain.2 What they found was that the grape juice drinkers had increased blood flow in two regions of the brain linked to memory when compared to the placebo drinkers. Although more science is needed, this suggests that 100% grape juice's circulation benefit may help keep your heart and your mind healthy.
Attention, Reaction Time & Mood:
Researchers from the UK discovered that Concord grape juice enhanced cognitive function in people with busy, stressful lifestyles – specifically working moms of pre-teens.3 During this study, 40-50-year-old women participated in a series of brain-bending tasks, including a driving simulator challenge. Mom drivers that drank the grape juice for several weeks (vs. a low-polyphenol drink), were more attentive and quicker to react behind the wheel. These learnings were reinforced with a second small study, which found that drinking a daily serving of 100% grape juice made with Concord grapes (vs. a low-polyphenol drink) had an immediate, positive impact on both mood and attention in young adults (mean age of 21 years).4
Immune System Health
Eating a nutritious diet packed with colorful fruits and veggies helps ensure you're getting an array of vitamins, minerals and beneficial plant nutrients (i.e. polyphenols) for health. Welch's 100% Grape Juice delivers the power of purple fruit and antioxidants, like polyphenols and vitamin C.
What's more, one study found that healthy adults who regularly drank Welch's 100% Grape Juice (vs. a low-polyphenol drink) saw an increase in a specific type of immune cell called the gamma delta T-cell.5 This "watchdog" immune cell plays an important role in the body - detecting potential invaders and alerting the immune system to respond. While this research is preliminary, it builds on earlier laboratory studies and suggests the antioxidants in 100% grape juice may help support a healthy immune system.

these things are so cool. I was thinking of buying a GPS and a GoPro before. I think I'll just get the shadowbox. Now if only they weren't $500 (I assume it'll go down in price in the future, right?)

Hey FredFX-
$500 is the going rate, the competition goes for around $350 and it doesn't even do a tenth of what this baby is capable of!

Thanks Josh for posting this up on the forum!
For everyone that hasn't taken a look yet, please take a minute and check out this video about an innovative new GPS recording device called ShadowBox:
Below is a synopsis about the device and the free software program
, available for download off our website at
While working for MauiSails and Tabou this summer in the Gorge, I had the opportunity to meet with the brand manager for ShadowBox, and immediately saw it's potential for windsurfing. The device is truly amazing, and it's potential for an abundance of sports; be it windsurfing, kitesurfing, SUP, surfing, snowboarding, skiing, mountain biking, motocross, skydiving, kayaking, and so much more, is huge! After working with pro freestyler's like Andre Paskowski and legendary speedsailor Dave White while in Brazil this fall, the device is already dialed in and ready to go! Now I'm over in Maui with ShadowBox Team rider Whit Poor (Starboard, Severne, Dakine), getting the ShadowBox dialed more into the waves and jumping aspect. We've already got some amazing data, and are working to soon be able to see the steepness of a drop into a wave, the height of the wave face, height, distance, and tweak of an off the lip, and more; already we can see board trim, acceleration, relative wave height, and g-forces while wave-riding. Yesterday at Kanaha Whit threw 310 jumps, the highest of which was a 32.4 foot backloop, and of course, all he wants to do is go bigger! As with any sport, as more riders submit data, the software only gets better, and updates, like an iPhone update, will be available for free off of our website @
After reading the below, if you have any more specific questions, please either respond to the thread as usual or feel free to email me at
Shadowing your every move, the ShadowBox is guaranteed to improve your performance whether youre a weekend warrior or seasoned pro. Recording the hangtime, distance, speed and height of every maneuver; the degrees of spin, roll, and flip for every trick; and the G-forces, board trim, acceleration, and speed at any given point; ShadowBox is quickly becoming the primary choice for objectively capturing and measuring ones actions in a multitude of sports, and is the only GPS device that is not only waterproof, but also allows you to play back every aspect of your ride with 3D capabilities. Built into the box are gyroscopes, magnetometers, accelerometers, a pressure sensor and GPS module, which together combine to create a sensor fusion that paints a precise picture of any riders session. Get Better, Go Bigger, Box Proven.
Immediately after a session ride data and 3D replay can be viewed directly on the box, then later uploaded to a computer via USB where through RideTracker, a free software program available for download at
riders can analyze every aspect of their ride in 3D detail. Through RideTracker you can see not only what you did but also where it happened, making ShadowBox the only GPS device that can animate an entire ride pathway, in 3D animation, into Google Earth. And mounted to your board, you dont need a friend to follow you with a camera from the beach to see what you did, you can do it all on your own. Mount the box to the board, select the windsurf setting, hit record and go! The battery lasts for 5 hours, and the box can hold up to 10 hours of ride data.
RideTracker is a revolutionary software program in and of itself. It gives you the ability, post-ride, to see any aspect of your ride from any conceivable angle or distance you can imagine, even underwater! Once the ride file is uploaded to a computer, a feast of data becomes available, allowing you to see every aspect of your boards performance at any given point in time during your session. Not only can you see exactly what you did, but you can also see the full science behind it. The speed, launch angle, hangtime, spin rotation, distance traveled from point to point or in three dimensions, and landing impact of, a stalled forward. The speed into, board trim, radius, and acceleration out of, a laydown jibe. Anything you can think of, the box can tell you. Switch to a different board, or a different prototype during R&D, and you can see the exact differences by overlaying the ride data from one board to another. Give each tester a box and send them out during board tests and you can get an average top speed, max jump height, acceleration, and more for each board, giving factual, comparable data for magazine product tests. Instructors can submit ride files that students can overlay with their own and see the differences, exponentially shortening the amount of time to learn new moves. The analysis tools in RideTracker let you dissect your ride and your equipment like no other tool in history. And this is only the beginning. Via net-based updates, RideTracker will only get better, with such features as compare your trick to a pro and overlays of your own tricks to your friends and others. The ride files themselves are relatively small, and can easily be uploaded to our website, where anyone in the world can download them and check out your session.
Dont hold yourself back for another minute! Get your box today and watch your windsurfing improve faster than you could have ever imagined!

Hi Casey,
Can you please post detailed pics and info on how the ShadowBox mounts to a windsurf board? What are the mounting options? How do you set it up for multiple boards? Does it get in the way when you're riding/careful footwork needed, etc.

The pursuit of an IT certification often entails a considerable investment. That investmentor costcomes in two primary forms: money and time. Money has to be spent not only for the certification exam, but for training materials as well, whether in the form of books, CBT, or classroom instruction. Time, however, often represents the biggest cost as the time spent studying one topic prevents you from studying another, honing other skills, taking other assignments, or even earning walking-around money on side projects.
To complicate matters further, choosing which certification to acquire next is often like choosing which of the thirty-six squares to place your roulette bet on. You want to pick a winner that will be recognized, increase your value in the marketplace, and hold its worth for some time; one of the worst things to do is find out that the certification you just earned is being phased out in favor of a newer one.
Given these conditions, it is helpful to look at some of the developments and trends to expect in the next year. These represent only a generalized opinion and should never weigh into your consideration any more than other variables. For example, if your employer values XYZ skills and offers to pay for your training and increase your salary $5000 more a year for obtaining said skills, you should not choose to walk away from it just because three people tell you that XYZ is dating quickly and few use it anymore. It is of value to you, to your employer, and should be pursued as long as there isn't a better offer attached to another technology. Specific circumstances should always outweigh generalizations.
Without further caveat, here are five trends and topics to watch in 2011:
1. Security will stay hot.
For the past few years, security certifications have been consistently popular and there is no sign of that slowing down anytime soon. In addition to CompTIA's updating their Security+ entry-level certification, they are also adding an advanced security certification, intended for administrators with a minimum of 10 years' IT experience (five of which are hands-on with security). The one exam certification will focus on four domains: Enterprise Security; Risk Management, Policy/Procedure and Legal; Research and Analysis; and Integration of Computing, Communications and Business Disciplines.
While CompTIA is good at the entry-level, and is hoping to have something of value at the higher level, a number of other higher-level security certifications are already there and worth watching. The two main certifications are CISSP and CEH. CISSP (Certified Information Systems Security Professional, from (ISC) 2) requires extensive experience in the field and is viewed as a premier certification for professionals concentrating on information security as a career path. CEH (Certified Ethical Hacker, from EC-Council) focuses on the growing area of penetration testing and requires two years' work experience in the field. Both of these are respected certifications in the marketplace.
2. Virtualization is all the rage.
When even vendor-neutral certification entities like LPI (Linux Professional Institute) start offering exams on topics, it draws attention to the growth in popularity of that technology. Virtualization makes economic sense and as such is winning the pocketbooks of managers in almost every industry. Those managers then need qualified administrators to implement and manage it.
What is changing is the size of organizations implementing virtualization. For years, virtualization has been a mainstay at large corporations. As the cost of implementing the technology have come down, it has moved into a good number of medium-sized businesses now and will soon be in all that can identify the savings associated with it.
3. Project Management continues to grow.
In the area of "soft skills," project management continues to win favor. It is difficult to find many IT positions above entry-level where project management skills can't be utilized, and thus holding a certification is a positive on the resume. Within this area, PMI (Project Management Institute) continues to be the desired certification with few contenders on its level.
4. Cisco CCIE will remain prominent.
One of the most respected IT certifications is that of CCIE (Cisco Certified Internetworking Expert). It requires substantial knowledge of IOS and Cisco products, and has been obtained globally by less than 1% of networking professionals. One of the reasons it is so respected is that it tests networking knowledge and abilities through both written (two hours) and hands-on (eight hours) exams. There are seven tracks to choose from, each focusing on a different area of network expertise, with the most popular being routing and switching. CCIE certifications must be renewed every two years.
5. Storage will increase in importance.
As the size of files and storage needs increase, the necessity to have administrators that are qualified to handle issues specific to this matter will expand. Representative of this, CompTIAin conjunction with SNIAis crafting a storage networking certification intended to complement Network+, Server+, and Security+. The proposed name for the certification will be "CompTIA Storage+ Powered by SNIA" and it is only one of several storage certifications that should be arriving in the next year or so.
Other Notes
Certifications that test on operating system issues will continue to incorporate the latest operating systemsfor example, CompTIA's A+ is doing a rolling update to include Windows 7 questions in the exams without doing a complete update. While the new operating systems work their way into general exam questions, certifications specifically on them are not as popular as they once were. An example of this is the Microsoft Certified Desktop Support Technician (MCDST) certification, which was started with the release of Windows XP and is being phased out with the required exams retiring on March 31, 2011.
Microsoft has announced that the Microsoft Technology Associate (MTA) certification is now available through Certiportthe company overseeing the Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) exams. Intended as an entry-level certification, MTA is a first step toward a higher certification. Currently, seven exams have been announced, each leading to the MTA credential and there may be more in the future:
- 98-361: Sofware Development Fundamentals
- 98-362: Windows Development Fundamentals
- 98-363: Web Development Fundamentals
- 98-364: Database Administration Fundamentals
- 98-365: Windows Server Administration Fundamentals
- 98-366: Networking Fundamentals
- 98-367: Security Fundamentals

Designer Tip: Use the applicator to spread gold over the stencil images first. While still wet apply a small amount of copper randomly over the gold. While the stencil is still in place, use the applicator to remove the excess paint and sprinkle a small amount of clear glitter over the paint. Remove the stencil while the paint is still wet.

Joe Jackson suffers stroke
Michael Jackson's father, Joe Jackson, has suffered a stroke but is OK.
LOS ANGELES - Michael Jackson's father, Joe Jackson, has suffered a stroke but is OK and resting in a Las Vegas hospital, a family friend said on Thursday.
"He was doing well and says he's feeling OK," close family friend Brian Oxman told Reuters.
Oxman, Michael Jackson's one-time attorney, said the 83-year-old patriarch of the pop music family started experiencing weakness on Wednesday while walking in a park near his home and was later admitted to a hospital.
Jackson has a history of strokes, Oxman said.
"He was talking fine," Oxman added. "He sounded excellent to me."
A former U.S. Steel employee from Gary, Indiana, Jackson managed and helped launched the career of his children with the R&B and soul group The Jackson 5 beginning in the 1960s.

Visa Alert: Weigh in With USCIS! - (May 14, 2010)
USCIS Invites Feedback Regarding Artist Visas
In response to concerns expressed by the League and the broader national performing arts community, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has opened a public comment period on one aspect of artist visa process: the amount of time allowable between multiple engagements in a single visa approval period. The League, in partnership with our national performing arts sector colleagues, will submit detailed comments to USCIS. We encourage you to consider submitting comments on behalf of your orchestra to give greater voice to the concerns about the artist visa process. We've drafted sample talking points that may be modified to include details about your orchestra's experience with the visa process. Comments must be received by USCIS by May 24, 2010.
Participate in the Comment Process
League Calls for Urgently Needed Major Improvements
We know that challenges with the artist visa process abound. That's why the League and our national partners have been in close communication with top officials at the White House, in Congress, and at USCIS to call for immediate improvements.
- The draft policy memo under consideration by USCIS responds to our requests earlier this year, in which we asked USCIS to not limit allowable gaps between performances by a specific number of days, and in which we called for an open public comment process to fully discuss the issue.
- During a Senate Judiciary oversight hearing on Tuesday, May 11, Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) urged USCIS Director Mayorkas to take immediate action to improve the artist visa process.
- On May 13, 2010, senior officials from the White House, USCIS, and the Presidents Committee on the Arts and Humanities joined us in a dialogue about artist visa concerns.
Visa Problem? Help Us Help You
If your orchestra receives an unusual request for evidence, or your visa petition is denied, please contact the League as soon as possible. Your specific case examples are essential to improving artist visa policies - and we can also help you navigate a crisis. We need to hear from you as early as possible to be of help.
Unified Advocacy Continues
The League's efforts to improve the visa process for guest artists are conducted in close collaboration with our advocacy partners in the Performing Arts Visa Working Group: American Federation of Musicians, Association of Performing Arts Presenters, Dance/USA, North American Performing Arts Managers and Agents, OPERA America, Performing Arts Alliance, and Theatre Communications Group, and under the guidance of immigration attorney and www.artistsfromabroad.org author Jonathan Ginsburg. In addition to representing orchestras before USCIS and the White House, we continue to work with Congress to seek a legislative remedy to improve the reliability and efficiency of visa processing. This issue was also included as an advocacy priority during national Arts Advocacy Day, endorsed by dozens of national arts organizations.
The League is a member of the Performing Arts Alliance, a coalition of national performing arts service organizations dedicated to advocating for national policies that recognize, enhance, and foster the contributions the performing arts make to America

Largo Clearwater Metal Roofing Distributors
Are you looking for a Roof Repair contractor in your area? Whether you need new tiles, tar, shingles, or a simple patch repair for your roofing project these 3 tips will show you exactly what to look for when selecting a good roofing repair service in your area. From experience, licensing, and a proven track record you will be set to call for your roofing project bid.1. Make sure that the roofing company that you choose has years of experience and are familiar with the different types of roofing repairs and construction. You can ask the contractor how long they have been doing repairs and if they have before and after photos or other examples of past jobs. Flat tiles, felt materials, slate materials, and other types of roofing examples should be available with an experienced roofer. 2. Is the company certified, licensed, and insured to do roofing work? Roofing jobs can be very dangerous and there is always a chance of a worker slipping and injuring themselves so be sure they are insured! Along with being licensed you will want to make sure the roof repairs being completed will pass fire code specifications for your buildings safety.3. What type of warranty or guarantee can the roofer provide to you with your purchase of their services? This is important because your roof is the main protection and preventative measure towards any future interior damages and deterioration. These damages can cause many dollars of damage! If you live in South Dakota there are many storms, rain, snow, heat, and extreme temperatures so make sure when selecting a Sioux Falls Roof Repair company they can assure you your roof repairs will hold up overtime through these conditions. By being aware of your locations weather conditions in Largo, getting a warranty to best suit your location, and by having an experienced and certified roofing service you can be sure your Clearwater Roof Repair needs will be completed in proper condition for a favorable price.
The Most Common Causes of Commercial Roof RepairsWith a couple of simple improvements you can include character and curb appeal to your house at an affordable rate and make it the envy of the area. Today's wonderfully priced vinyl fencing is one choice that is easy to set up, easy to care for and looks good for years. New designs and darker colors provide you a wealth of options. Check your house's siding. Is it cracking, staining or decomposing? Your siding may just need a power wash or it might need to be changed. Talk with your regional contractor about low-maintenance vinyl and fiber cement siding options if it's the latter. New styles, such as CertainTeed's Board and Batten vertical vinyl siding, mimic the look of standard siding and be available in a wide range of colors. Asphalt shingles can last many years depending on the quality of the shingle, the slope of the roof and proper ventilation. To be sure your roofing system is in good shape, usage binoculars to look for missing out on, split, curling or decomposing shingles. Think about asphalt shingles as new styles can add dimensional appeal to your home. Image your house online. Home enhancements are also house investments.

At some time or another most people will be encounter a leaky roof on their home. Knowing roofing repair is a fairly easy task, especially if you are somewhat of a handyman. If not, it is still possible to do this on your own. There is no need to hire a expert. Since you have a leaking roof, it does not mean that it is time to change the entire roof, it simply means that one spot came loose. If you have a flat roof, where water is permitted to sit and rot away at the shingles, you are going to have more leak problems.The initial thing you'll need to do is determine if you have a shingle that is missing. It is usually easy to see, other times, it is not so easy. Look and see if the roof caulk is missing, this would be a good indicator of where to begin your roofing repair. If you can't tell exactly where the leak is coming from, you can go inside your home and try to estimate where exactly the leak is coming from, and go straight up from there. Of course there is no guarantee this will work.And just because you call a roofing repair company this doesn't always mean you'll end up having to get your whole roof repaired. Beware though, many local roof repair companies will try to get you to replace the whole roof when it may not really be necessary. Some of these roof repair companies are what I call "storm chasers". They will come into town after a big storm and pressure people into getting their roof replaced. The problem is that many of them do shoddy work and then when there are problems, the roofing company is not around as they have moved on to the next town.
Overview of Working with A Roofer
Some roof repair companies are known for providing superior service, while others are known for engaging in underhanded business tactics that take advantage of the customer. How does one tell the difference between a good and a bad roofing company? In most cases, determining whether roofing contractors are reputable requires knowing the signs of disreputable contractors. If a provider of roofing maintenance is needed, do not hire a contractor who displays the signs below, because they signify a risky contractor.No Licensing, Bonding, or InsuranceLicensing, bonding, and insurance protect homeowners against unprofessional workmanship, stolen property, and property damage. If a contractor lacks a contractor's license, bonding, or insurance, he or she should not be hired due to the potential of unrecoverable financial losses.Asking for Payment UpfrontSome contractors ask for money to buy initial supplies, which is not considered suspicious, but contractors who ask for a large payment upfront (e.g. twenty percent or higher) should be avoided. In some cases, these contractors use the money to finish another project. Worse still, some roofers that ask for a large payment upfront take the money and run. A well-established roofing company has no reason to request a large payment upfront.ConclusionRoof repair companies range from upstanding contractors who perform excellent work to contractors who do not mind taking advantage of the customer. If a provider of roofing maintenance is needed, be sure to avoid contractors who display the signs above, because they are often indicative of disreputable contractors.
One of the most common problems for Mobile Home owners is roof leaks. Due to the use of lower cost materials, many models (especially the older ones), just don't hold up well to the elements. Many of the newer models have composition shingle roofs and repairs are similar to conventional homes. It's really just a matter of matching up the color and removing and replacing the old shingles. The older ones are a little more complicated. The following steps will help guide you through the process.1. Locate the ProblemYou will usually become aware of a roof problem by noticing a dark brown or rust colored stain in the ceiling. The most obvious place to look for the leak is the area directly above the stain. However, that is not always the source. Water may penetrate the roof in one place and travel before finding the ceiling below. If the damage is not obvious directly above the stain, begin to expand your search to other areas. Sometimes, even the smallest of holes, can cause a lot of damage and the smaller the leak, the more difficult it will be to find. It will be to your advantage to take a broom up and sweep all of the leaves and other debris away before inspecting the roof. The construction of roofs on most older mobile homes will consist of thin sheets of metal 4 to 8 feet wide running from the front to the back of the home. The seams will usually overlap and may lock together or may be sealed with a sort of metal or fiberglass type tape. These seams and the places where vents and pipes penetrate the roof are the most likely places to leak. Elastomeric Coatings - The final type of Mobile Home roof repair I'd like to talk about is rubber based or elastomeric coatings. These are thick liquid materials that are brushed or rolled on and will cure to a hard plastic like coating or a more flexible rubber like surface. If done right, this can be an effective solution. However, it is crucial that you read up on the product to see what types of materials it will bond to and what type of preparation needs to be done. Unlike the asphalt products which will usually work, to some degree, over any surface, elastomeric coatings will fail if not installed according to the specifications. Again, read all of the technical data for procedures, safety precautions, and clean up methods. Using one of these three repair methods should solve most problems with faulty roofs. But, no matter which technique you choose, always follow proper safety procedures. As we mentioned earlier; mobile homes are not always built with the highest quality materials or standards. Watch for signs of weak or rotted areas and exercise caution when climbing on these roofs.

Right now I am having this silly difficulty from the following:
- BTW, Conformal dimension/scaling dimension is -ve of mass dimension ..right?
- In p-63 of Magoo, after 3.15 eq, they said a.) $\phi$ is dimensionless..why? b.) They, after getting length dimension of boundary field as $\Delta d$, referred to 3.13 to comment that O operator has conformal dimension $\Delta$. I know its right..But as in the lhs of 3.13, the exponent must be dimension less, it seems O should have length or conformal dimension to be $-\Delta$..
I know I am making a silly mistake here..Thanks for answering.

Apple has been big in the news lately and for lots of big reasons, not least of which is the spectacular run-up in its stock price. All of a sudden, it seemed, the world's greatest tech company was worth more than half a trillion dollars, making it far and away the largest publicly traded company on the Street. The good news is many investors have knowingly benefitted, some tremendously so, from the stock's rise. The bad news is probably just as many would be shocked to find how many shares of Apple they own in unexpected places in their portfolios.
Truth be known, a good number of mid- and small-cap strategies hold the biggest-cap stock on the planet, as do several dividend-focused strategies. Even BlackRock's High Yield Bond Portfolio owned Apple ahead of the company's recent announcement that it would begin paying dividends. What's it matter as long as everyone's making money? It matters a lot to advisors aiming to construct style-pure portfolios.
Understand the Nuances
In reality, most portfolio managers' investment guidelines are far more flexible than the name of the product might suggest. Some mandates are actually vague enough that a manager can invest within any part of the market to pursue the stated objective. Equity managers, for example, often have almost unlimited room to play with market cap and style—sometimes even geography—as the market environment shifts. Good for the manager, maybe, but a nightmare for advisors trying to build a style pure portfolio for their clients.
Fortunately, good due diligence on a fund's investment process will help you better understand how far the manager can invest beyond his or her stated limitations. For example, you might find that a manager is required to sell a holding when it exceeds the upper bounds of the portfolio's defined market cap range. Others, you'll find, have the freedom to continue to hold in that scenario, also known as "letting a winner run." While this may benefit the manager's performance (or not), it clearly can lead to unwanted overlap between the underlying managers in your client's portfolio. Knowing the difference is crucial.
When you've hired managers to represent specific asset classes, capitalizations, and styles, reviewing current and past holdings helps to prove or disprove their buy and sell disciplines. Holdings-based style analysis can be used to confirm the consistency of a strategy beyond the buy and sell disciplines described by the manager.
To that point, the PrimaGuide style concentration chart shown below depicts where a sample small-cap value equity strategy is currently invested (name withheld to protect the innocent).
As you would hope, this manager is primarily invested in the fund's primary style box. A fair level of assets in core and growth hint that this manager may invest in a relative value style, while 25% of assets invested in mid cap (defined as $2 billion to $10 billion) indicate the manager has let winners run.
Next, look at the style concentration over several years. This chart bears out the previous observations; there has been varying exposure to mid cap, core, and growth stocks over time. The style exposures can change for a variety of reasons, from shifts in the market to active decisions made by the manager.
These observations remind us that strategies cannot be considered in a vacuum. Statements by the manager must be considered within the bigger picture to confirm or deny what the holdings-based style analysis seems to indicate.
Finally, viewing a scatter-plot chart of stocks across style and capitalization axes, the granular level if you will, gives you direct feedback on which holdings are outliers and to what degree.
If the manager indicated that he will not hold positions greater than $10 billion, the chart would bear that out. Seeing otherwise would demand an explanation from the manager as to why he departed from the strategy's stated market cap limitation. The answer will determine your comfort with the relative strictness of the portfolio construction process.
We can all agree that understanding a fund's underlying investment strategy is absolutely critical if you're looking to build style-pure portfolios. We can also agree that due diligence is the only way to protect your clients from unwanted surprises like overlapping holdings or style drift. Bottom line is this: Utilize holdings-based style analysis and compare your observations to what the manager says to get a better sense for whether or not they run a style pure strategy.

Legally Blonde Tickets
Legally Blonde is without a doubt a modern day fairy tale, but of a different kind that has grabbed the attention of many. Many of us have seen Reese Witherspoon saunter into Harvard and graduate in full glory of her pink colored skirts. The character of Elle Woods has not only given us plenty of reasons to laugh out loud but also helped reassess the blondes as a whole. Legally Blonde has turned blondes from bimbos to bombshells. The hit flick starring Reese Witherspoon has been hailed as one of the best comedies of its time and now the story has taken Broadway by storm! The Ivy League champion, Elle Woods, is the main character taken from Amanda Brown's book entitled Legally Blonde. After making a mighty successful appearance on the big screen, it is time for Elle Woods to show off her skills in theatre!
Tickets for Legally Blonde are currently unavailable.

Write down your email and never miss an update.
The theatre goers were eagerly waiting for the theatrical adaptation of the show, which is why, as soon as Legally Blonde hit the theatres, it became a massive hit. Since the musical was created several years after the release of Reese Witherspoon's hit movie of the same name, the show did not need any introductions or any elaborated promotion campaign. And for exactly that reason, the musical did not fail to impress the critics as well as the fans once it premiered. The show grabbed the attention of many and was nominated for several awards. The long list of honors includes seven nominations for the 61st Tony Award, no less than ten nominations for the 2007 Drama Desk Awards including the nomination for the Outstanding Musical, Outstanding Music, Outstanding Choreography, Outstanding Lyrics and several others. Even though the show won none of the above mentioned awards but getting nominated in so many categories alone is enough of an honor for a fresh tale of a perky little girl.
The story of the show begins exactly as shown in the movie. Elle Woods is piqued to hear the news of her longstanding ex boyfriend and his departure for Harvard. Determined to win her boyfriend back, she enrolls at Harvard Law School. Upon reaching the college, she is devastated to hear that not only has her boyfriend moved on but has also found a new love interest who may not be as prim as Elle but rather has a head for law. And that is when our dear old sorority princess hatches up a plan to engross in studies and make the most of her time at Harvard, while still trying her best to win her man over. Somehow she lands the case of Brooke Wyndham, the exercise queen imprisoned for the ostensible murder of her husband. What happens next is for you to see for yourself!
Legally Blonde has been hailed as a delightful new show after its pre Broadway tryouts which premiered in San Francisco. The show finally opened at the Broadway's Palace Theatre in 2007 where Bailey Hanks played the role of Elle Woods. The reality TV program which consisted of the auditions for the role of Elle Woods on Broadway was even aired for television. At the end of the auditions, Hanks was selected as the winner, who then played the role for several months until the production close down.
