Sandhya / SUN-dhya / SUN-diya for non-Hindi speakers noun[Hindi = dusk, twilight]
Novelist and Nutella expert, currently living in Colorado.
Non-nerdy Bio:
Hi, hi!
My name is Sandhya Menon, and I'm a New York Times and national indie bestselling author. I write books for teens (and those who still feel like teens inside!). A full-time dog servant and part-time writer, I make my home in the foggy mountains of Colorado.
My YA novels WHEN DIMPLE MET RISHI and FROM TWINKLE, WITH LOVE are out now. Check them out on my books page!
Want to know more about me? Here are some fun questions from my Twitter peeps!
Fave Bollywood movie: Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi. Must. Watch.
Who is your OTP? Isla and Josh, Bella and Jacob (that's right, I'm team Jacob forever!), Dean and Castiel–and Suri and Taani from Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi for Bollywood movies.
Food you can't live without: Curry! Any kind, really, but I especially love coconut-based curries.
Favorite books you read as a child/teen: I loved Enid Blyton's Mallory Towers series! I also devoured Fear Street books, Archie comics, and Tin Tin comics.
Fave dessert: I am a dessert NUT. I've never met one I didn't like. If I had to pick one, it'd be something to do with Nutella or chocolate.
What is your weird superpower? I see words in my head when I talk. That's why I've always been good at spelling!
What do you snack on while writing? Chocolate! Usually something small, like mini Kit Kats.
How do you share Indian culture with your kids? It's not easy because we don't live in a heavily Indian community. But I share a lot of stories about my days in India, and whenever possible, I show them pictures of my relatives and different ceremonies (weddings, naming ceremonies, etc.). I also teach them Hindi words, the correct pronounciations of things, and–one of the most fun things–we eat a lot of Indian food! Recently my relatives from India gave them Amar Chitra Katha comics, which they LOVED.
First crush: Johnny Depp from 21 Jump Street. I was 10, and I fell hard. (Shah Rukh Khan was next, though, and that crush has lasted YEARS. Did I say "has lasted"? Oops. (Call me, SRK.))
Favorite guilty pleasure: The Twilight books and movies (although, tbh, I don't feel especially guilty about reading/watching these! Read what you like, I always say!)! I re-read and re-watch them every year.
How do you want your writing to evolve throughout your career? Do you always want to write YA? I'm focused on writing YA for the next couple of years at least, but who knows where things will take me? That's the great thing about a writing career–you can constantly reinvent yourself if you get bored. 🙂
What's your Hogwarts house? When I took the test, I got Gryffindor. Knowing myself, though, I'd say I'm more like a Gryffilpuff.
Your go-to writing music: I can't listen to music while I write; I need total silence. (I've been known to take ear plugs to the library…). BUT I love thinking of playlists. Here are some of the musicians on my Pandora playlist: Transviolet, Lenka, Florence + The Machine, Iron & Wine, Kate Nash, Feist, Birdy, Regina Spektor, and A.R. Rahman. Also, as far as Hindi music goes, the entire Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi soundtrack is perfect for WHEN DIMPLE MET RISHI!
What are your favorite ice cream flavors? Chocolate and peanut butter all the way, yo!
Where's your dream home? As in, city or country. I think I'm pretty lucky because I've wanted to live in Colorado for years now, and I finally moved here. I love living in the mountains!

CHEWSVILLE -- The Valley and Clear Spring 9-10 All-Star teams each scored a victory Wednesday.
Clear Spring got the one that counted most, though.
Valley held Clear Spring scoreless in the first inning, something no one else had done during the Maryland District 1 Tournament. But Clear Spring scored all its runs in the next three innings to take a 19-1 victory at Aaron Steiner Field and advance to host the district final.
"That was our goal, to keep them off the scoreboard in the first," said Valley manager Mike Mathias, whose team will play in the elimination final. "We accomplished what we wanted to do."
It didn't seem to matter. Valley missed its chance to get the early lead when Andrew Mathias was gunned down at the plate on the back end of a double play started by Dustin Moser's grounder to the mound.

OST INSIGHT Co.Ltd. is a Russian company based in Saint-Petersburg which creates projects related to the Japanese culture and art for the world museums . The company also collaborates in creating interviews for the international art festivals. We are glad to invest our knowledge and skills in order to create original art mediation, guided tours, art workshops or art therapy programs for the audience of any age.
The name of the company is derived from the words Ost and Insight. Ost means East or a wind coming from the east (this term was usually used in a maritime terminology). That is why, the logo of the company contains the element of the waves and wind. The word Insight is very common to the Eastern thought because it means intuition, apprehension of the inner nature of things. Combining these two words in the company's name, we seek to give in our various projects "insight into Eastern cultures ans arts".
The company is created by two friends in 2014, Marina Saburova and Ekaterina Zatsepina, who share their common interest in Japanese art, as well as degree in Art History. They were presenting together a radio program and named it OST INSIGHT. During one year they invited to their talk-show various artists, musicians, specialists in Eastern cultures in order to understand the influence of the Eastern culture abroad and, especially, in Saint-Petersburg. After this program's experience they decided to create a company with the same name.

Playing the Walgreens game is a blast once you get the hang of it. Although, I will admit, it is quite challenging. Once you start playing, you really need to play every week in order to maximize your savings and continue to roll your rewards.
Walgreens uses a system called "register rewards". Every week in the sales ad, you will find various products advertised that will yield a register reward (RR) if purchased. A register reward is a Catalina coupon which will print from the Catalina machine when you have purchased a participating product. The Catalina machine is the little box located next to each register, similar to those found in grocery stores. Each RR has an expiration date, which usually expires 2 weeks from when you receive them. So, don't forget to use them and don't loose them. Treat your RRs like cash!
Now let's get started. The object is to pay as little out of pocket (oop) as possible and/or try to gain more RRs than you used. Walgreens advertises products yielding RRs in two different fashions. The first being, purchase a particular item and receive a specified dollar amount RR. This scenario would look like this…
"Buy Colgate Total Toothpaste, 4oz, sale price $2.99; receive a Register Reward good on your next purchase for $2"
Hence, you would buy one tube of toothpaste, pay $2.99 and get back a $2 RR for a final cost of $0.99. You may think that this is a great price for toothpaste, well, you are wrong! This deal could net you a penny profit if you had a $1 coupon for the toothpaste.
The second being, purchase X amount of dollars of a product and receive a specified dollar amount RR. This scenario would look like this…
"Buy $10 or more of Hershey's Pieces, sale price 2/$5; receive $5 in Register Rewards good on your next purchase"
Hence, you would buy four packages of Hershey's Pieces, pay $10 and get back a $5 RR for a final cost of $5. You may also think this is a great price for four bags of candy, well, you are wrong again! This deal could cost much less if you had four $1 coupons for the Hershey's Pieces.
Now, let's learn how to use coupons and RRs in the same transaction. WAGS registers recognize RRs like coupons. Therefore, when using coupons and RRs in the same transaction, you will need to have a product for each coupon or RR to attach. WAGS store coupons do NOT count in the product to coupon count. So, let's say we have a $1 coupon for the toothpaste and we have a $2 RR from purchasing a completely different product from the previous week. Well, in this case, we have two problems. The first one is that we cannot purchase one item and use two coupons, where one of the coupons is the RR. The second is that the toothpaste only costs $2.99 and once we use the $1 coupon and the $2RR, we will go negative by a penny. So, we will need to find what is referred to as a "filler". A filler is the cheapest item you can possible find at WAGS to act as a place holder for that second coupon and to prevent us from going negative. Fillers can consist of anything you choose. However, most pros use items that are as cheap as possible (i.e. candy bars, pencils, etc.). For our example, lets use a pencil that is on sale for 20 cents with an in store coupon advertised in the weekly ad. You may be thinking, ok….now we have three coupons and only two products. Remember, WAGS store coupons do not count in the coupon to product count. They do not attach to anything. So here is what our transaction would look like…
Buy Colgate Total Toothpaste $2.99
Buy pencil regular price $0.40
Use $1 manufacturer coupon for toothpaste
Use $2 RR from purchasing a completely different product prior week
Use in store coupon found in ad (deducts $0.20)
Pay $0.19 Get $2RR
I've found it best to give your manufacturer coupons first, then your WAGS store or in ad coupons and your RRs last.
You can purchase more than one RR generating product in the same transaction as long as they are different deals. For example, if you were to buy one Colgate Total toothpaste and four bags of Hershey's Pieces in the same transaction, you would get a $2 RR and a $5 RR.
Also, you cannot "roll" RRs into the same deal. This means you cannot use a $2 RR from the Colgate Total toothpaste to purchase more Colgate Total toothpaste. You will not get another $2RR. The best way to roll RRs from week to week is to use them on a completely different RR deal. For instance, use the $2RR from the Colgate toothpaste deal towards the Hershey's Pieces deal.
Now that you are completely overwhelmed, give it a try! Feel free to ask questions. You WILL get the hang of this and become a pro!

Bishop Conlon April 05
Bishop Conlon Statement on the Death of
Pope John Paul II - 04/01/05
From: Most Reverend R. Daniel Conlon, Bishop of Steubenville
The death of Pope John Paul II is a significant event in the life of the Church. He has been our father and teacher for over 25 years. He has served with enormous energy, vision, intelligence, and faith. His influence on the Church and the world is difficult to measure.
His death is also significant because of the sense of loss it creates among Catholics. Anyone under the age of thirty-five has known no other pope. Pope John Paul II's love for young people and his desire to draw them to Christ has inspired a deep love for him in turn among young people.
We, in the Diocese of Steubenville, commend this servant of the Lord to the God who created him and called him forth for such noble service among God's people. We give thanks to God for the blessings that have flowed to us through the Holy Father. We are confident that the Holy Spirit will continue to guide the Church in the ways of truth, justice, and love.
Bishop Conlon will celebrate Mass at Holy Name Cathedral in Steubenville on Tuesday, April 5 at 6:30 p.m. and at St. Mary Church in Marietta on Friday, April 8 at 7:00 p.m.

My dear R,
Happy birthday! I hope today brings you reminders of all that is good in your life, of how deeply you are loved, and of the promise of a bright future.
I celebrate you as I have the past few years: I've given S a card to deliver to you, and I've created an album on fb. It's an important ritual for me. I enjoy celebrating each one of you on your birthdays. Whether we are speaking or not doesn't change that. I look thru 18 years' worth of photographs and have a hell of a time choosing the four or five that I'll include. I smile often and tear up a little. I'm so grateful for the happy memories that arise as I look thru our family albums.
Thank you for all you shared with me. Thank you for teaching me so much, and for inspiring me simply by being who you are. I'm glad I got to be your mom.
Be well and happy, R. You deserve that.

Free Water Softeners &
NaturSoft Salt Free Water Softener 4-6 Bathrooms
Up To 75 Grains Model NS-6
Maintenance Free/Salt-Free Water Softener/Conditioner
The NaturSoft™ System represents the superior alternative with respect to dealing with the symptoms of water hardness without resorting to ion exchange (salt or potassium) based systems. The amount of wasted water and release of salt into the environment has increasingly become unacceptable. When deployed in a system, the NaturSoft™ media does not require any regular maintenance. NaturSoft™ media does not participate in any reactions it merely promotes them. Therefore, the material is not sacrificial and it does not get consumed resulting in its exceptional long life.
The system itself represents the utmost in environmentally conscious water softening/conditioning. It does not add chemicals to the source water, nor does it remove the healthful minerals that are naturally occurring in it. The system does not require electricity to operate. Nor does it consume water for the purpose of backwashing or regeneration. It does not require the addition of any chemicals to operate. The water flows through the media vessel in an up-flow direction resulting in no adverse effect on the building's water pressure.
To buy now Natursoft Free-Salt Softer $ 1,495.00
What makes NaturSoft different from similar
Why does the NaturSoft handle 75 grains while others
only handle 25 grains of hardness?
If you are interested in contaminant removal along with softening, you may want to consider the Pelican PSE2000 Premium Whole House Water Filter/Softener 4-6 Bathrooms.
If you have Multi-Headed Body Sprayers in your shower you may need a high flow system to accommodate the high volume of water needed to operate the shower system.
17 Great Reason Why you should choose NaturSoft for your family
Additional Features and Benefits
Attention: Some California, Texas, and Connecticut communities are currently under water softener bans for conventional salt based softeners, and cannot have salt or brine discharge. The NaturSoft™ systems require no backwash, no salt and no brine discharge. NaturSoft™ systems are not affected by those bans.
How long do the NaturSoft™ Systems last?
The NaturSoft™ Systems use a non sacrificial media that has the potential to last forever as long as the media is not introduced to oils or hydrogen sulfide (sulfur).
If the water hardness is tested after the system is installed will the hardness level be different?
If the water is tested after the NaturSoft™ System is installed the hardness level will remain the same or even test slightly harder due to the existing scale being removed from the plumbing.
Do the NaturSoft™ Systems have any negative effects on the human body?
No, if your water supply is safe before it enters the NaturSoft™ System it will be safe after the system. NaturSoft™ Systems do not add any chemicals to the water therefore there is no harmful effect. NaturSoft™ Systems leave in the beneficial minerals that are healthy for the human body.
Why do the NaturSoft™ Systems not require backwashing?
NaturSoft™ Systems operate in an up-flow rather than the traditional down-flow. The NaturSoft™ media works as catalyst only, not as a filtration media therefore there is no accumulation of anything in the media tank and no need for backwashing.
What is included with the purchase of your new NaturSoft™ System?
How will the NaturSoft™ System be shipped?
The NaturSoft™ Systems are shipped via UPS Ground in the highest quality doubled walled box with side cushions and a custom top piece. No expense has been spared to ensure your system arrives in factory fresh condition.
Where can I find a certified plumber in my area to install the NaturSoft™ Salt-Free Water Softener/Conditioner?
In Orange County California, we are licensed general contactors and can inexpensively install the system for you. To find a certified plumber outside Orange County, Ca., go to www.contractors.com. Click on Plumbing and enter your zip code. You will see a list of certified plumbers in your area to contact. You can also type in plumber and your zip code in Google and a list of plumbers will show.
Note Canadian Customers: Shipments into Canada may be subject to duty taxes set by your local Magistrate. To avoid delay in your shipment, if you have a customs broker, ship your unit to them. Amount of duty taxes vary by location.
If you are on a private (individual) well and do not receive a water bill: The water treated should be free of hydrogen sulfide (sulfur gas / rotten egg smell). The sulfur will coat the surface of the media and will interfere reducing its efficiency. If any iron or manganese is present in the source water, the media will cause it to be oxidized. If any of these issues exist, you should employ pre-treatment prior to using this technology.

Ricky Martin will be living Westside style
Los Angeles
Ricky Martin is set to launch his own residency in Las Vegas next year, but in the meantime he's taking up residence on Los Angeles' Westside.
The Latin music star has bought an estate in the Beverly Crest area for $13.5 million, property records show.
Named the Feldman house for its first owner, the midcentury home dates to 1953 and is among the last major works of architect Gregory Ain.
The seven-bedroom, 8.5-bathroom house, extensively renovated and expanded to 11,300 square feet of living space, features an open floor plan with hardwood floors and a range of contemporary materials.
Wood-paneled walls of glass bring in views of the home's natural setting.
The master suite has a sanctuary-like vibe, thanks to a floating two-way fireplace and an inner courtyard.
Also of note are the large soaking tub and waterfall feature in the master bath.
A long patio runs the length of the home and surrounds an infinity-edge swimming pool and spa. Accent lighting illuminates the three-quarter-acre setting.
The 44-year-old Martin is a two-time Grammy winner whose hits include "Livin' la Vida Loca," "She Bangs" and "Adios."
He will begin his residence at the Monte Carlo's Park Theater in April.
Ballplayer out of home
After being traded by the San Diego Padres to the Atlanta Braves last season, Matt Kemp is ready to make a trade of his own. The professional ballplayer has listed his mansion estate in Poway's Heritage community for sale at $11.5 million.
Kemp bought the San Diego County property three years ago for $9.075 million and has spent another $3 million in renovations, according to Kofi Nartey of Compass, who shares the listing with Morgan Trent of Paramount Properties.
Features of the 15,884-square-foot home include custom travertine floors, a cigar lounge with a humidor and a 1,200-bottle wine cellar with a separate tasting room. The custom home theater has tiered seating and a snack bar.
Two walk-in closets, two showers and a secondary laundry room are highlights of the master suite. There are five bedrooms, five bathrooms and two powder rooms in all.
Outdoors, manicured grounds include an infinity-edge swimming pool, a tennis court and an outdoor kitchen with a pizza oven. A separate pool house is currently used as a gym and Roman spa.
The 32-year-old Kemp began his career with the Los Angeles Dodgers and spent his first nine seasons with the team, making two All-Star teams. The outfielder hit .268 with 35 home runs and 108 RBIs in 156 games for the Padres and Braves last season.
Aussie ''Shark'' nets gain
Australian entrepreneur and film producer Andrew Banks, who appears on the television series "Shark Tank Australia," has cut a deal in Beverly Hills, selling his 10,522-square-foot home for $15.955 million.
That's a nice return on investment for Banks, who paid $9.18 million for the half-acre property four years ago.
The home, which draws from European influences, was built in 1997 and extensively renovated during Banks' ownership.
Among details of note is a blue-hued living room, an elevator and a music room with a wet bar. Two curving staircases flank the vaulted foyer, which is topped by a modern chandelier.
There are seven bedrooms and 10 bathrooms including a master with a sauna. A swimming pool, a pool house and a guesthouse fill the hedged grounds.
Banks has been a panelist on "Shark Tank Australia" since last year. He previously co-founded the recruitment company Morgan & Banks and the human resources company Talent2 International.
Opting out of Bay Area digs
A sale is pending for the San Jose home of San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick.
Kaepernick, who can opt out of his contract at the end of the season, reportedly called it an "investment decision" when the two-story hit the market in late November for $2.895 million. He bought the house two years ago for $2.7 million, records show.
Extensively remodeled during the quarterback's ownership, the four-bedroom, five-bedroom house opens through custom wood doors to a foyer with a wall aquarium. Modern fixtures, subdued hues and wood-paneling lend a contemporary vibe to nearly 4,600 square feet of interior space.
On the second floor, an alcove looks down on the foyer through a glass-bottom floor. There's also a paneled lounge with a leather-wrapped bar.
A covered pavilion and a swimming pool with a waterfall feature highlight the more than half-acre grounds.
Kaepernick, 29, began the year behind Blaine Gabbert at quarterback but regained the starting job in Week 6. The University of Nevada alum led the 49ers to a Super Bowl in 2013.
''Loser'' creator pares down
Television producer David Broome of "The Biggest Loser" fame is ready to shed some square footage in Calabasas, listing his home in a gated community for sale at $9.499 million.
The European-inspired house, once famously known as Britney Spears' rental, is reached by a tree-lined drive that ends at a circular motor court.
Inside, nearly 10,600 square feet of living space features hardwood floors, vast open spaces and vaulted and beamed ceilings. The master suite has a boutique-inspired dressing room, a dry sauna and a steam shower. There are six bedrooms and seven bathrooms.
Other living areas include a great room and a formal dining room that are divided by a two-way stone fireplace. A two-story library tower holds an office, and a climate-controlled wine cellar also has a humidor. An elevator detailed in mosaic stone and custom millwork services each level, as do a pair of sweeping staircases.
The garage is outfitted with an auto lift for subterranean storage.

Enjoy thinking laterally? Then Puzzlebook: 100 Matchstick Puzzles might be just the right book for you! As the Grabarchuk Family states in their introduction to this neat ebook, matchstick puzzles have been around for a very long time―centuries, in fact! However, the authors have rendered such puzzles in a totally new format, by transforming them into a game that is playable on all the different versions of Kindle, including its apps.
In addition to allowing you to visualize the answer in each case, you might choose to play the game using any small, straight objects, such as toothpicks or pencils (apart from the more obvious matchsticks, of course!). Puzzlebook: 100 Matchstick Puzzles should appeal to all ages and levels of expertise, from novice through to experienced player. The puzzles are all clearly graded and carefully organised so that, by merely clicking on one of the named icons that form part of the introduction to this book, you can immediately go to the puzzle of your choice. And you stand little chance of getting stuck, as a hint is provided with each puzzle, showing how you can set about solving it. All solutions are also only a click away.
For math teachers, this ebook promises to be a little gem, as it approaches many conventional geometrical shapes in fascinating and original ways. Among the shapes covered are squares, rectangles, triangles, cubes, quadrangles, octagons and hexagons. What I loved about this collection was the different shapes, in addition to the above, that can be formed from such simple objects. For the animal lover, there is an entire menagerie, including ducks, snakes, rabbits, snails, hedgehogs, little fish, marabou birds, butterflies, cats, and dogs. Everyday objects abound: irons, envelopes, glasses, and jars. Then there are the objects related to the outdoors: hills, trees, shovels, turnpikes, fences, and wigwams. The variation is sufficiently vast to stir any imagination. Both your creative and lateral thinking processes are likely to be stimulated and encouraged by this novel and intriguing collection.
As usual, I played the puzzles on Kindle app for Windows, as I tend to work at my computer all day, and find doing them a welcome relief from the routine tasks that an editor and indexer has to perform on a daily basis. (Remember when there were only card games to play online? Well, no more…!) Once again, the international appeal of the Grabarchuk Family's output is unquestionable. No matter your culture or background, you are likely to find that Puzzlebook: 100 Matchstick Puzzles appeals to you. Why don't you give it a try?

I almost forgot that it was my birthday today.
To be fair, it wasn't actually my birthday. Perhaps forgetfulness is one of the side effects of having a Leap Day birthday in a non-Leap Day Year.
That said, I think I also forgot because I've been too busy—too busy to remember.
For too many reasons to count, this school year has been a particularly challenging one. For some reason, I thought it would be a good idea to fill in as interim department chair, take on an action research program, and teach a brand new course all at the same time. Just last week, I spent no less than 15 hours on online scoring training for the new course, which has been a worthwhile if not exhausting experience so far. Add to that the many afternoons running my boys from basketball practice to piano lessons to prep—and I'm pretty sure I'm squeezing in more than 24 hours in a day. (Maybe that Hermione Granger time-turner necklace I have really does work.)
Still, I wonder if forgetting my birthday isn't just another thing that happens as we grow older.

Member Blogs > Journey of a BooksellerThe Inquisitor's Tale: Or, The Three Magical Children and Their Holy Dog by Adam Gidwitz, Hatem Aly (Illustrated by)
Mon, 29 Aug 2016 08:30:00 PermalinkSit down, clear your mind of all notions, and commence reading a tale that combines magic, religion and more. This tale is not like any you've read before. After all, have you read a tale about a dangerous farting dragon?
Dutton Books for Young Readers and Edelweiss gave me the opportunity to read this book for review (thank you). It will be published September 27th.
We begin with a baby that is left with a dogsitter. A greyhound is left to protect the baby. The dog kills a deadly snake. The parents think the blood is the baby's and they kill the dog. The baby is safe, the snake is dead, and the parents regret their action. They bury the dog and soon it's got a reputation of being holy. That's not the end of the story about the dog.
The girl has fits and sees the future. The boy can heal with natural ingredients and his prayers. The young monk has extraordinary strength. When soldiers come after them because of their magic talents, they run. As they run, they band together and learn about each other.
This tale is told in pieces. One person tells their part, then the next takes over. As the tale goes along, the children get closer to the tavern where the tale is being shared. Once they arrive, they want the books they left on the donkey. Then they head for a haven that they might be safe in and they are saving the books so the King can't burn them. What they don't know is that now they have a killer in their midst.
With talk about saints and holiness, the issue of Christians vs Jews, an African American monk, and dog that rose from the dead, there's plenty to wonder at and you have to learn to accept the impossible to read this book. It's busy and it will keep you reading. I'm not so sure about you believing the story. But that's what fiction is for: To take you away from your present world and entertain you in a new one. This book does that.

It is now time for the community to have its say on the draft Sunshine Coast Youth Action Plan 2018-2021 which sets out the priority areas to support the region's young people and youth services sector.
Feedback on the draft plan, endorsed by Sunshine Coast Council on November 9, is open until 5pm on Monday, February 12, 2018.
Mayor Mark Jamieson said council recognised young people were an integral part of our community, the growth of our region and our future.
"It was imperative that council continued to tap into their enthusiasm, optimism, innovation and creativity to help shape our healthy, smart, creative region," Mayor Jamieson said.
"The draft Sunshine Coast Youth Action Plan 2018-2021 has been created to strengthen our commitment to our young people and to value their contributions to our region.
"This plan will ensure our young people are involved in decisions that impact on their lives, that they are supported to actively participate in community life, encouraged to develop their identity and independence, and assisted to take responsibility for themselves.
"That's what being part of an engaged, progressive community is all about."
Community Portfolio Councillor Jenny McKay said the draft Sunshine Coast Youth Action Plan 2018-2021 had been developed in direct consultation with our region's young people and the youth services sector.
"Council engaged with 779 young people from all walks of life to create this draft plan," Cr McKay said.
"The young participants of council's youth development program, Speak Up Engage, have also been instrumental in the development of this draft action plan.
"I would also like to acknowledge the valuable input provided by the Sunshine Coast youth and community services sector who assisted in the initial consultation phase.
"Now the draft plan has been prepared we are again seeking input from the community.
"There are a number of ways that you can provide feedback, including completing the simple online feedback form, participating in an engagement activity at a Speak Up Engage pop-up during January 2018.
"We will also be contacting everyone who provided feedback in the initial consultation phase and presenting to schools in early 2018.
"I encourage young people between 12-24 years to have their say.
"By providing feedback on the draft Sunshine Youth Action Plan you will enable council to implement an action plan that is responsive and focused on addressing the relevant needs of our young people."
Young people who provide feedback will also go in the draw to win one of five $100 JB Hi-Fi vouchers.
Visit council's Have Your Say website https://haveyoursay.sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au to read the draft plan, complete the online feedback form and obtain the details on the Speak Up Engage pop-ups.
Consultation on the draft Sunshine Coast Youth Action Plan opens today (Monday, November 13, 2017) and closes at 5pm on Monday, February 12, 2018.
For more information phone council on (07) 5475 7272 and ask to speak to the Community Development Officer or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

To listen to Mexico's most traditional music, just head over to the mariachi plaza.
I visited Plaza Garibaldi for about a half-hour during a whirlwind tour with a cab driver of this massive city.
The young, the old, women and men _ all go there to listen to one-on-one private, yet public shows put on by bands who one can hire on the spot. Besides mariachis, there's also norteno bands one can hire.
Tequila, lots of tequila, is also sold at the plaza. People dance and sing next to the bands. I loved every minute of it. It was great to see all generations enjoy this timeless music.

I have been infected with the Spydawn virus, I ran Adaware before I had even searched for information about the virus just because I recognized its behavior to be strange. My computer then said it needed to shutdown half way through this process and did so within a minute. Booting back up only got as far as the welcome screen and then it would reboot itself again. I have tried re-booting in safe mode, administrator, with command terminal and so on, same story. I have tried running log error processes, these just tell me there are problems with windows.
I can put a windows disc in and boot from it and end up in command prompt
What would I have to type here to get rid of this virus and the dll files spoke of in the system 32 folder:
I am thinking that if I get rid of these it may then boot into windows, what should I type in the prompt screen, its been a while since I have had to deal with windows machines as I have a Mac, haha
if i just re-install windows will it just write over the windows directory or will the other stuff on the hard disk disappear too?
Any help would be much appreciated as I am a little lost at this point in time. Many Thanks

So yesterday was my hubby's birthday & I still hadn't bought him a gift, so me & my baby girl took a ride to ToysRus. He loves playing xbox and there was a Star Wars game that he wanted. These games are so expensive that we only buy them for special occasions like birthdays or holidays. Now toysRus is having a sale this week-you buy one at regular price & get a second for 40% off, so I began looking for something that the rest of us would enjoy too. I love the kinect games because you have to move to play the game, so this is the type of game I was looking for. Then, there it was!! The Disneyland game for 19.99 and I would get 40% off of that.....I was soooo getting it!
Now we couldn't play yesterday because it was hubby's birthday but there was no excuses this morning! I popped it in so I could play with my daughter. Now, I don't usually touch hubby's Xbox so I got everything running but for some reason the Kinect sensor was having trouble detecting us. It became so frustrating that when I saw that it did detect my daughter, I just sat down and helped my daughter play the game. We wanted to play together, but my main goal was to find a game that she'd be happy with and boy, was she happy :)
She played for over an hour and it was hysterical. She was in Disneyland!!! After the whole kinect sensor debacle, the game was very easy to play. After a while she didn't need my help at all.....she knew where to go and since she now knows how to read, she knew what she needed to look for and where she had to go. She was very good at following directions. Her favorite part was giving the characters a hug!!! So cute!!
I definitely recommend buying this game if you have kids who love Disney. It is fairly easy to play, especially if the kids can read, but if not you can read any instructions to them. Most of the time, the characters tell you what they want you to look for and where to go......It really is a great game. Her only complaint is that her arm was tired, since she had to keep her arm in front of her to move her character in the game.
This was the best money spent on a game so far!!! Even I like it, but that's probably because it is a Disney game :)
*This is not a sponsored post, product was purchased by me with my own money.
This blog is all about my life & opinions about everything. There are stories about my family & all the things that we want to do, including any plans for travel and future. There may be a lot of randomness....

The latest issue of the 9th Scroll is here! You can read all about it in the news.
Disciples are an abberation in vs army. Never ever vs playstyle should be based on them as main fighting force. They should be support unit a 'hammer armed egg' to deal final blow to units fighting slaves monks or R@A. Not a grinding chainsaw.
IMO there is a design flaw in their concept. They are frenzied and frenzied egg becomes smashed egg fast. So they were given some protection loosing some if their fragality. And became all purpose unit with option to moonwalk...
I should say nerfing them without boosting other units is no way to go...

WotDG- meh internal, awful external
Dwarven Holds - decent internal, average external

My views on the armies I own, and based on my own meta:
BH great internal balance.
DE not a fan of their Internal balance. Or external as a result.
DL better than most people give credit for. I even find Pestilence fun to play.
DH decent internal balance with some stand out units.
EOS Hate the balance here. Internal and external seems to be off, making this a book where I like the vibe but not the army.
HB : Even though I have the army I havent played enough with them to judge. Pyromancy is hurting their external balance though like the other elves.
KOE: Needs more units. If I dont like a unit now because of X I'm screwed. Like filthy Peasants.
iD: Good internal, bit ott external.
OK: Good Internal balance in units, less in equipment (magic and non magic).
OG : One of the best. I see players here use everything in the book and even my Spider themed list works.
VS: Hmm. Its good external, bad internal.
VC: Same as VS, although I might see it as having a better internal balance.
UD: Not played them a lot. I miss the monster Mash list option compared to MSU or deathstar... making me play the army less and less.
SE: Internal balance feels off to me with the current %selection, making some units more worthy for bringing more bang for their points.
SA: Pretty decent internal balance except for characters.
WDG: Euh. Find it hard to judge since my WDG army is all mounted...Handy links: 9th Age twitter, Facebook, Youtube channel, Instagram, and Background Wiki
lawgnome wrote:Do the plague disciples provide a unique role to the army? Something that could not be provided elsewhere if there were strategic buffs/nerfs to other units?
Is the plague disciple central to a key VS play style? Does their current status as being the most desirable unit in the book prevent other play styles from being used?
Yes, that role could be filled by other units if they got buffed, but the toning down of VS shooting, followed by the heavy magic overhaul, that stripped VS of it's lore whose entire purpose was basically make rats fight better, has left big combat blocks (what used to be this armies bread and butter rather subpar).
Vermin hulks could fill a similiar roll if they didn't essentially auto break when losing combat.
Your second set of questions is all backwards. The lack of other viable playstyles is what has given rise to the disciple spam, the grenadier spam etc. If you can't take big blocks and have them be effective, then spamming the glass cannon options becomes the only other viable strategy.
Add in that the ONLY scorign comes from core, and MSU is essentially forced upon the army. you can take 2 scoring units that can't stand on their own, or just spam MSU for lots of scoring units, that are just as ineffectual in combat."You can never know everything, and part of what you know is always wrong. Perhaps even the most important part. A portion of wisdom lies in knowing that. A portion of courage lies in going on anyways." -Lan Mandragoran, EotW
Dovie'andi se tovya sagain.
Exactly. Plague Disciples are great but n what they do and are easy to counter. In cc they are powerful but not unbreakable.
They are spammed because they are the only cc viable option atm because of the reasons given above.
Fix the internal balanace and Disciples will not be spammed any more.
Inner balance is responsible for the character of the army. If competitive armies are far away from feel and look of an army then inner balance is not what we would like it to be.
VS have already been mentioned. Became msu centered around plague duscuples.
KoE most competitive builds are based on horde serfs with knights serving secondary role.
EoS became army of foot knights (ig) supported by some soldiers snd knights.
I have the feeling that neither of those armies is now what I would expect it to be. Looks a bit like those armies swaped their platstyles. Is it intended and we'll see it in the background or inner balance is crap in all those cases? Other armies like that?
I agree VS could use attention but to me the others are fine.
KoE - should a faction based on a feudal society field a lot of peasants? Seems legit.
SoE seems landsnecht / black army era and this playstyle doesn't seem out of character for them either.
I will accept that there is a lot of disagreement on playstyle though. There is some consternation on the OnG boards that they have become a shooting army - mass goblin bows seem very thematic to me but not to others.
On the other hand I saw BH as one of the most magical races but the vision of others disagreed.
I agree on EoS - Imperial Guard can be a real political power in Empire. A way emperor controls his nobles and knightly orders. His elite soldiers are not only there to guard his palace but they are garrisoned in every mayor city and strategically located fort. A very centralized and oppressive empire it would be, very different to GW but very fluffy. Second power also controlled or at least used by emperor would be free companies - mercenary bands with emperors letters roaming the countryside when on leave and keeping nobles occupied. Ragtag bandits really more then soldiers.
But KoE? No feudal armies ever led peasants for other reasons then tend the camp. There were professional soldiers and mercenaries but no peasant crowds unless there was an uprising and then feudal armies were fighting peasants not leading them. Arming masses of peasants was against interest of nobles...

For me, I play OK, SA, and ID. I would rank them as OK>SA>ID. I can find a place for any unit in an OK army (depending on the list type I want to play. I'm not bringing a kin eater in a rush list, but it would be awesome in a shooting heavy list, etc.) With ID, most of the units are useful, but there are some that are consistently outshined by everything else (blunderbuss, volcano cannon, and disciples, for example). With SA, I think a lot of units are useful in certain instances, though there are some that are less desirable (ramphodon riders and raptor riders for me).
But I don't know about other armies. I hear that HBE has some problems with frost phoenixes and sea guard being undesirable, for instance. I am hoping to get more information from players as to what they feel about their army (because I feel there is a big difference between something being desirable and something being competitive. Just because something doesn't show up in the most competitive of lists doesn't mean that it is a bad design, it could just be that it doesn't fit the current meta
Question: there is a lot of data available from various tournaments. Also the Community Managers of each individual army could give you a list of units - and upgrades, magical items - and their use and appreciations. Wouldn't that say a lot more and more reliably than what some individuals in this thread tell you?
In any case. I have/play HbE, SA and DE. I'm not that good a player that I can say 100% sure what's viable and what is not and why.
But I can provide you with statistics. For example:
Saurian Ancients
- All Characters except the Caiman Ancient have their uses, some more than others. The Caiman Ancient is absolutely FUBAR and need a re-design (BSB option, Ld8, +1A, better/more buffs) or point adjustment.
- Skinks and Saurus Warriors are both taken a lot, which doesn't say a lot as they are mandatory (20% Core). Except that they are both taken in about equal measure, which seems to indicate they are both about equally viable - and SW aren't considered a bad core unit. SW mostly use hand weapons over spears (cheaper, parry) and don't use any of the 4 available totems, except an occasional Jaguar. I guess Crocodile (-1AP) will be either very popular or nerfed after 2.0. Totems being mandatory for all your SW if you take them definitely doesn't help making them more popular (too expensive).
Skinks seem to use all weapon options (bows being picked least) - which seems to be quite balanced.
- None of the Special units is considered very good. Caimans offer a can opener option so they are used for that - and also see regular use in skink units but they aren't very strong compared to other Monstrous Infantry and a.o. really lack a Magical Banner option (compare Bruisers for 15 ppm less). Temple Guards miss any protection against misfires (for Cuatl Lord bunker) and aren't that good defensively. Snake Swarms are FUBAR. Raptor Riders aren't considered much better (M7 and stupidity doesn't help).
- In Jungle Guerillas Skink Hunters and Chameleons are used very regularly, almost always with blowpipes (90%). Of the weapon beasts, Spearbacks are the preferred choice as they do decent damage and Saurians lack middle/long ranged offensive options. And Spearbacks are 30pts cheaper than Salamanders.
The flyers are considered subpar. They lack decent defence (T3), unreliable with only Ld5 (1 less Ld than all other skink riders/elites - while they operate outside Ld bubble) and with a mandatory 3 models they are very expensive as chaff/redirectors (compare 100pt Ld8 Eagles). Thus they are hardly ever taken.
- Of the Thunder Lizards The Stygiosaur and Taurosaus are both good options; they have decent defense, buffs and attack. The Thyroscutus though lags way behind and is never taken.
Magic paths: of the Cuatl paths, Evocation is never used. The other paths see regular use, especially Fire and Alchemy.
Skink Priests use Druidism by far the most often. Shamanism sees some occasional use.
Cuatl Disciplines; 50% of the options are never used (Master of Magic (160 pts), Wandering Path (80 pts) Higher State of Mind (70 pts) Shielded Soul (50 pts), not even in Spanish/Italian TC. They should get a re-design or points adjustment.
Mounts: most mounts are in a bad state. (regular) Carnosaur, Palanquin, Pteradon, Ramphodon are (almost) never taken. Taurosaur and Alpha Carnosaur see some occasional use. Only the Raptor sees a lot of use.
So how is the internal balance? I'm no specialist but below table should approximately tell it:
ok/good subpar bad Characters 5 1 Core 2 Special 3 1 Jungle Guerrillas 3 3 Thunder Lizards 2 1 Cuatl Disciplines 4 2 2 Mounts 3 3 1
What internal balance score should this give?
You could make this analysis for every army book to find out about internal balance.
The post was edited 7 times, last by Teowulff: typos; elaborations ().
I play HBE and find their internal balance to be all over the place. IMO All the core units apart from Sea Guard are pretty balanced against each other. Some subgroups within categories such as the Elite Infantry options and Bolt Throwers/Sky Sloops are also balanced exceptionally well, with each choice having clear but distinct pros and cons. After that, internal balance goes out the window. The Ancient Allies and Elder Service categories have acceptable internal balance, but Characters have very definite good and bad options. Then when you compare units across categories, everything gets much worse. Core choices lose to their Special, Elder Service and Peacekeeper counterparts on everything accept wounds per point. Most fighty character options feel worse in combat than equivalent points of special units because the special choices can bring many times more attacks and wounds. Finally, some units such as Sea Guard, Grey Watchers, Sky Sloops of the bound spell version and Reaver Chariots simply don't have a place in the army.
I play 4 armies:
HbE have good internal balance. I can find a place in a list for just about every unit. Some of the costs are off, but there is nothing in the army that is downright bad.
DH I play the least, but similar to the Elves most of the units are useful at worst and pretty great at best. Except for the Golem things.
VS is a mess. I get tired of playing a plague list, I get tired of playing against plague lists. The last time I had an opponent who tried to not go plague I tabled him by turn 4.
But my beloved OnG, I can't see how people are saying they are balanced! So many units you will never see in a competitive list, and even in a thematic list because they are kinda boring. Common Orcs, Orcs on Boars, spider raiders, gnasher herds, Bridge Trolls, Skewerers, Wyverns, Mounted "eadbashers... Pretty much most of the book underperforms for their costs. The things that are good, like the Big Spider, Git Launchers, Mad Gits, Feral Orc 'Eadbashers, you see in nearly every list. Yeah, we have tons of options, but I'd rather have fewer that are good than alot that aren't
Now, that said, I said screw it and run nearly all Orcs. But trust me, the boyz need help. I would nominate O&G as the army with the worst balance.

From ADT pov I think ID, DE have the most problems, followed by OG and VS.
For O&G the prpblem is they have too many units, leftovers from previous editions. ID pretty much the same. We introduced some completely new units, and some mainly because community asked, and we prefered to go safe and make them a little weaker. At least internal balance was greatly improved compared to what they used to be.

Armies I feel confident making an assessment of:
DE: Terrible internal balance. Few truly viable choices. (And I've tried to make all the bad choices work. I really have.)
HbE: Okay internal balance. Some options not useable, some useable but not really competitive. Multiple playable army types.
ID: Poor internal balance. Whole categories ignored.
UD: Okay internal balance. Much like HbE, but fewer playable army types.
DL: Poor internal balance. Let's just say that half the units which see play do so only because players tend to be monotheist, and that makes your core unit mandatory no matter how bad it is, and your other unit options become quite limited.
EoS: Okay to decent internal balance. Feels like most units are actually viable choices (with the right supporting units/characters). (Least confident in this assessment).
Scale: terrible-bad-poor-okay-decent-good-excellentJust because I'm on the Legal Team doesn't mean I know anything about rules or background in development, and if/when I do, I won't be posting about it. All opinions and speculation are my own - treat them as such.

I've BSB'ed on a griffon, not as often as I like. - 18" bubble, yes please. Only works when I have other big targets.
I use Grey Watchers a lot - good for hunting war machines, with those poison shots.
I love Big Sea Guard blocks. - I'm stupid enough to think Stand & Shoot is an effective strategy.

And I tend to field all the reaver chariots I can. They are not that bad (depending on what army your opponent has) - they just are not that killy for a non-core unit.
HbE has a lot more viable choices than other books. THe ones that are "balanced" tend to actually be more restrictive than the ones that are not. There are SOME exceptions though.

We've just been to Arkengarthdale (in Swaledale – Yorkshire Dales) with David and Anita, friends from Meeting, and their two children – Jordan and Mimi.
We had an excellent time roaming on the moors, playing games (Great Game of Britain and Perudo), bird watching, stream damming and – particularly in the case of the boys – staying up very late.
Jordan and Mimi are strict vegetarians, but David and Anita seemed to enjoy having a sausage and a little bit of bacon!
The children did an Easter Egg hunt and had a large amount of chocolate each.

Rest in Peace Davy Jones.
Rest in Peace Davy Jones. You were my favorite Monkee. Always a smile on your face, what a spirit you had. You will be missed by so many. The memories you gave us through music and melodies of your songs will always live on in our hearts. The Monkees were one of my earliest music memories - my brothers very first record. I must have only been three or four... We used to put on the record and run around the room singing and dancing like crazy. One of my favorite memories ever with my brother.

It's National Day of the Mushroom!
Sponsored by: FungusAmongUs
I am generally afraid of any food that I have to rehydrate. I think this stems from space food.
When I was little, I used my babysitting money to purchase a package of spaghetti with meatballs and an ice cream sandwich. Excitedly, I remember tearing into the space food and dumping it into my mouth. And promptly spitting it out again. I never read the instructions where it said it needed to be rehydrated with water before eaten. Whoops.
Today, I had the chance to try FungusAmongUs Orangic Mushroom Medley, a dried mixture of porcini, shiitake, crimini, maitake, oyster, and chantrelle. What a beautiful array of woodsy, complex flavors and smells - once rehydrated, that is (I'll be honest, the smell is a little off-putting when you originally open the package). I'm a huge "texture person" and I was delightfully surprised at how dense, how - and this is totally awkward to say, but - meaty they seemed; the mushrooms weren't "mushy," slimy, or grainy at all (which I thought they might be - I'm telling you, space food ruined me).
FungusAmongUs are The Organic Mushroom People. Besides dried mushrooms, they also make things like dried soup mixes, rubs and seasonings, and truffle products (um, hello, truffle mustard? *swoon*).
Anyway, the package of dried Mushroom Medley included a fettuccine recipe on it. It was a fine way to eat the day!

Happy National Day of the Mushroom!

It's a gripping, white-knuckle stampede of a movie as the Mesozoic comes crashing through the modern day.
Much like that time Jeremy Kyle did a US special, everything is so much worse in America if you're poor.
The Happy Prince, the role Rupert Everett was born to play could well be his magnum opus.
Ultimately, it is a beautifully shot and cleverly composed ode to the city I call home.
It is a crying shame that there are far too few original female leads being created out there on the telesphere. A female Doctor could be the beginning of something truly wonderful.
Sorry Netflix, but this time, your 'next big thing' is on the ropes.
It is utter trash, but I loved it. I was very sceptical of this remake. But I was won over as soon as I saw the trailer. I love its look, its style and aesthetic.
The Keepers explores the case of Sister Cathy Cesnik, a young nun and school teacher who went missing in 1969 in Baltimore. Her body was found two months later dumped on remote scrubland, yet to this day her murder remains unsolved.
The opening credits are a work of art: a haunting score of sorrowful Celtic strings accompany scenes of the Irish coast, taking us to a place far away from Albert Square.
It was tipped to be the next best thing, but two episodes in, I was sorely disappointed. It's not Waterloo Road. It wishes it was but it's not.

We make accounting simple
Williamson Partners is a Melbourne accounting firm, based in Ringwood. We love accounting. Whether providing tax consulting services, advice on self-managed superannuation funds (SMSF), financial planning or business accounting services, number crunching and reporting.
And yes, we're software-agnostic, which (our techy friends tell us) means we don't mind if you're using Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks, Pronto and others.
But you'll already know that the service provided by your accountant and the accounting software they use are not the whole story. Finding the right accountant can be tricky.
Find the right local accountant
The relationship with your accountant should be a personal one. They should be clear about what they are telling you – in language that's easy for you understand. They should be on top of the changes and legislation that applies to your business.
If that's not what you're getting from your local accountant, then it's time to make a change.
At Williamson Partners, we believe our job is to be your trusted advisor, someone who is on your side. We help clients from a wide range of industries with their tax and accounting but also with general business problems and provide a sounding board for business owners looking for another point of view.
If you are not getting the service you want, the services you need or you don't understand your accountant then get in touch with us. Give us a call or drop an email and we can catch up to have a free no obligation chat to see if we can help you.
Simple pricing plans with no surprises
Because our job is to help people with their financial and tax matters we are very transparent about where we fit in. If you are concerned about pricing, just ask and we'll have a frank discussion about what to expect – no quarterly or annual bills that catch you with your pants down.
We are a firm of chartered accountants who put customer service first, whether you are a small business, individual or investor. Let us help you achieve your business and wealth creation goals. If you're looking for more from your accountant and want a proactive professional as part of your team we invite you to contact us today for a no obligation discussion of your finance needs. We specialize in services to small business, because we are a small business. Our Philosophy is to be much more than tax accountants for our customers, our role is to help you navigate the tax legislation, not just to ensure you comply, but to make sure your affairs are structured in the most effective way. We will do this by proactively making suggestions to help you maximise your wealth outcomes.

Hide Forgot
Description of problem:
I have Tomboy set as a startup program in my GNOME session preferences. It
worked well in FC6. However, now that I am using Rawhide, usually the trayicon
does not appear, and Tomboy begins eating CPU time. Usually I have to kill and
restart it from a terminal for it to work properly.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
Almost every time.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set Tomboy as a GNOME session startup program (command "tomboy," no extra
2. Login to GNOME normally.
Actual results:
CPU time spikes in Tomboy
Expected results:
Nice Tomboy, good Tomboy.
Additional info:
The vast majority of Tomboy's time seems to be spent reading and writing from a
socket (usually fd #12 here), as shown in strace. If I attach to the process
with gdb, and have tomboy-debuginfo installed, how can I give you more useful
I'm seeing this too, however I was reluctant to report it since this is a
machine that started as FC5 Test something, and upgraded overtime to rawhide.
If I kill tomboy and start it again, everything is fine.
Well, thank goodness someone else is seeing this. This machine is a straight
install, no upgrade, so it's probably not you. Same here as far as a temporary
I have been seeing this for about a month or more. It's led me to avoid tomboy
by not restarting once I kill it. It only happens at Gnome session startup.
My system has stayed pretty-much current with rawhide since FC4-test2
I think this was a pango problem. It "solved itself" after today's update from
rawhide, which included pango-1.16.4-1.fc7. Since that was the only thing
updated that seemed like it was possibly tied up with tomboy (thanks, ldd), I
backed down to 1.16.2-1.fc7, and the problem recurred. If someone else can
confirm the same behavior, I'll reassign this and then close it.
Spoke to soon. This morning after another reboot the same problem occurred.
I think I truly know what causes the problem now, so I can only tell you how to
relieve it. Brian, if you could relate this upstream I guess that would help.
My ~/.tomboy/Plugins/ folder contained a file "DefaultPlugins.desktop" which
looked like this:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Default Plugins
Comment=Directory containing system-installed Plugins
If I remove the Plugins/ directory and turned tomboy back on in my automatic
session start program listing, everything works great again. The newly-created
DefaultPlugins.desktop file looks somewhat different. (Some entries may be
garbled if you don't have extra language fonts installed as I do.) In
particular, the "Version" field is gone:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Default Plugins
Name[bg]=Стандартни приставки
Name[pt]=Plugins Por Omissão
Name[ru]=Стандартные расширения
Comment=Directory containing system-installed Plugins
Comment[en_GB]=Directory containing system-installed Plugins
Comment[sv]=Katalog som innehåller de insticksmoduler som är installerade på
We ship tomboy as part of the default panel configuration; do you still see
issues with it in current rawhide ?
Seems fixed in all configurations, both the default user panel and as a session
startup program (swallowed in the notification area) in current Rawhide.
Apparently I didn't test the configuration that involves rebooting and using
Tomboy as a session startup program. When I do this, the CPU problem manifests
again. Reopening.
Based on the date this bug was created, it appears to have been reported
against rawhide during the development of a Fedora release that is no
longer maintained. In order to refocus our efforts as a project we are
flagging all of the open bugs for releases which are no longer
maintained. If this bug remains in NEEDINFO thirty (30) days from now,
we will automatically close it.
If you can reproduce this bug in a maintained Fedora version (7, 8, or
rawhide), please change this bug to the respective version and change
the status to ASSIGNED. (If you're unable to change the bug's version
or status, add a comment to the bug and someone will change it for you.)
Thanks for your help, and we apologize again that we haven't handled
these issues to this point.
The process we're following is outlined here:
We will be following the process here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping to ensure this
doesn't happen again.
I have not seen this in a long time, I'm going to close it.

Sheffield Wednesday goalkeeper Kieren Westwood says no-one should take into account results or performances in pre-season as the Owls edge closer to the big Championship kick-off.
Carlos Carvalhal's side so far remain unbeaten in their friendlies with the last of them coming up on Sunday when Rangers arrive at Hillsborough.
The Wednesday stopper was given an extended break having been on international duty with the Republic of Ireland at the end of the last campaign but has since made three pre-season appearances and, as far as he is concerned, it's all about fitness as the Owls get ready for the opening day clash at Preston in a little over a week's time.
"We have been steady in pre-season. We are still unbeaten so it is nice to get some momentum going into the season," he said. "It is always nice to win the games but the friendlies don't really mean too much.
"It is all about getting the minutes under your belt and getting ready for the start of the season. We will play Preston away a week on Saturday and it will be a different game to everything we have played so far.
"Fitness and minutes under your belt is the most important thing in pre-season. We don't read too much into the results. It will be a different kettle of fish come Preston."
Westwood is looking forward to the visit of the Scottish Premiership side, with a big crowd expected, not least backing the visitors.
"It should be a decent game," he added. "There will be a good crowd and atmosphere. It will be another match under our belts. We have a big game on Sunday and then an even bigger game the week after so there is plenty of preparation to be done but I'm sure we will be bang at it come Preston."
