DICE reaffirms commitment to Battlefield 4 following Battlefield Hardline revealWritten by: / / 2 Comments
Yesterday the gaming world received the exciting announcement of Battlefield Hardline, a 'cops and robbers' themed multiplayer shooter in development at Dead Space creator Visceral Games and due for release in late 2014.
What does the release of Hardline mean for Battlefield 4? What impact will the new Battlefield game have on 2013's edition?
In a post on the official Battle Blog, head of DICE Karl Magnus Troedsson assured fans that the announcement of Hardline doesn't mean DICE is 'done' with Battlefield 4. "Nothing could be further from the truth," he wrote, confirming that Visceral is leading the development of Hardline while DICE continues work on Battlefield 4. "We are committed to giving you the best BF4 experience possible," Troedsson says.
Here are just a few ways that the team of DICE will be improving Battlefield 4 in the future:
– Continued Support: "There are dedicated BF4 teams in Stockholm, Uppsala and LA that will continue to address any issues that might occur. But more importantly will also look to make significant additions to the game."
– Netcode Patch: "We are also working on a major update to the Battlefield 4 netcode."
– Community Test Environment: "We launched and are planning to expand our Community Test Environment. You can see the CTE as our labs environment in which we'll continue testing out new additions, improvements etc. before we go live with them. We're expanding the CTE program to give more and more players the chance to test new additions."
– More Features: "Other features rolled out recently such as Squad Join, Rent-A-Server and Loadout Presets, many which have been directly requested by you in the community. This trend will continue."
Games As Services
The days of developers releasing and forgetting their games have long since passed, and DICE in particular is focussed on making games as services, rather than standalone experiences. Troedsson writes:
"The games we develop are services. We focus on taking care of the games post launch, delivering new content to those of you who want it and always working hard to increase quality of play. We also continue to work hard to keep investing in areas where you tell us you see opportunities for improvements and new features."
Are you still playing Battlefield 4 and enjoying your time with it? Have you bought any of the add-on packs recently?

Can you help me find the integral $$ \int{\frac{1}{\sinh(x)}dx}? $$
If you write the integral as
$$\int \frac{1}{\sinh{x}} \, dx = \int \frac{2 e^x}{e^{2x} - 1} \, dx$$
then there's a pretty obvious substitution that works.
Hint: Notice that since $\sinh(x)=2\sinh(x/2)\cosh(x/2)$ and $1=\cosh^2(x/2)-\sinh^2(x/2)$ we can rewrite our integrand as $$\frac{1}{\sinh(x)}=\frac{\cosh^2(x/2)-\sinh^2(x/2)}{2\sinh(x/2)\cosh(x/2)}=\frac{\cosh(x/2)}{\sinh(x/2)}-\frac{\sinh(x/2)}{\cosh(x/2)}.$$
Can you solve it from here?
Hint 2: What is the derivative of $\log (\sinh(x))$?
Hope that helps,
In addition to Adrián Barquero's suggestion, another idea is to exploit the similarity between hyperbolic and trigonometric functions. Namely, this integral can be solved using the same kind of idea as its trigonometric counterpart.
To solve $\displaystyle \int\frac{1}{\sin x}\,dx = \int \csc x\,dx$, we multiply and divide by $\csc x + \cot x$, then do the substitution $u = \csc x + \cot x$, with $du = (-\csc x\cot x - \csc^2 x)\,dx$. We have: $$\begin{align*} \int\csc x\,dx &= \int \frac{\csc x(\csc x + \cot x)}{\csc x + \cot x}\,dx\\ &= \int\frac{\csc^2 x + \csc x\cot x}{\csc x+\cot x}\,dx\\ &= \int \frac{-du}{u} = -\ln|u| +C\\ &= -\ln|\csc x + \cot x| + C. \end{align*}$$
The same idea works for hyperbolic functions, if you use the fact that $(\coth x)' = -\mathrm{csch}^2 x$ and $(\mathrm{csch} x)' = -\mathrm{csch} x\coth x$. So write $$\int\frac{1}{\sinh x}\,dx = \int \mathrm{csch} x\,dx$$ and multiply and divide by $\mathrm{csch} x + \coth x$ in preparation for a change of variable.
Arturo's answer brought to mind yet another way of computing this integral: cheat by using the formula $$\sinh x = -i \sin ix,$$ where $i = \sqrt{-1}$. You can manipulate the imaginary units like ordinary (real) constants for the purposes of integration, and the result follows from the formula for $\int \csc x\,dx.$
Admittedly, the answer you'll get will have imaginary units in them, but you should be able to get rid of those via similar formulas (such as $\cos ix = \cosh x$, for example.)

I was initially drawn to my first Spinning® class after I had read about the program in a cycling magazine. The club I was a member at purchased their first batch of Spinner® bikes. They were sitting outside of the aerobics room and I approached the manager and asked one question, "When is the first class scheduled?" He looked at me like with amazement and said, "You've heard of the Spinning® program?" I played his game and said yes.
I was lucky; my first class was conducted by an instructor who was passionate about her role as an instructor. Fortunately for me, she was also a Master Instructor with the Spinning® program so I knew I was getting the proper instruction. That instructor was Danielle Foster. I'll always remember how she approached me and it has shaped the way that I approach others whenever I coach a class. She set me up properly on the bike and we began to chat about my experience with both indoor and outdoor cycling. She then delivered a ride that reflected my own training rides. I caught the bug. Love at first ride.
After a few months of taking Spinning® classes several times a week, I felt the need to take the next steps and become an instructor. I wanted to give back to the program that gave me so much. The Spinning® program changed the way I trained and shaped the type of rider I am today. I wanted to share this passion with others and help them along their fitness journey.
Making the jump from student to instructor wasn't all that easy. I knew I could do it and was confident that I knew my stuff. However, I was now leading the same members that rode next to me while I was a student. Some accepted me as their instructor immediately while others were not so enthused and took some time to come around. I found out quickly that it requires more than just a passion for the Spinning® program, but also a knowledge of exercise physiology, human psychology and many other disciplines that I would never thought I needed to know. It became a passion of mine not only to conduct Spinning® classes, but to broaden my knowledge of all of the above mentioned topics. I never stop learning and my students benefit from that knowledge gain.
Becoming a Spinning® instructor has been an incredibly rewarding experience. Whenever someone tells me that I have changed their life because they started taking classes with me, I look them directly in the eye and say, "Thank you. You have also changed my life by allowing me to be a part of your personal journey." We as coaches inspire our students, but more often, our students inspire us.

I'm trying to turn on fix show all users in the gnome configuration editor. All the sites I've found say to go to apps -> gnome-system-tools -> users, only I'm not seeing gnome-system-tools anywhere. Any ideas?
Before answering the question, I want to comment on the answer of gokulvarma and the conversation between gokulvarma and daniel:
Having no sudo permission is not the reason of daniel's failure to add System Tools to Applications menu. He couldn't add it because he tried to add an empty category. System Tools is a category or a sub-menu, if we add an application which will fall under any category, that category is automatically created. On the other hand, if there's nothing under it, we can't create the category; when we try, the tick disappears in some seconds. If we clear all elements under a category, category is cleared automaticaly.
daniel tried to add that category by selecting Applications from the left pane and ticking the System Tools from the right pane. Like this:
Instead, he should select System Tools from the left pane -which is already visible there- and he should tick Configuration Editor from the right pane. Like this:
When he is done, in his Applications menu, System Tools category/sub-menu should appear with Configuration Editor in it. Like this:
There's no need to be a sudoer to do this because the tool we are adding can be used by any user to arrange his/her own preferences.
But will this tool, Configuration Editor, help daniel to solve his problem? In my opinion, it won't, because this is the same of what he calls gconf-editor. Either via Alt+F2 or via Terminal,
In my Configuration Editor, which can be accessed by comand line as well, I can't see something as gnome-system-tools, too. neither can I find users section. Maybe its somewhere there hidden under some category or it isn't there anymore. (GNOME setting managers have evolved a lot, recently; the sites daniel told about might be a old) lets refer to GNOME System Tools' official documentation: What are the GNOME System Tools? There, among others, we see a screenshot of the tool to manage users and groups:
And this is the tool that we know as Users and Groups.(Yes interface is slightly changed, but this is it.) It can be reached via System->Administration. So, there's no need to struggle to reach it from inside other tools. Its there. But as Bobby who commented on the question, I couldn't get well what "fix show all users" means.
right click on the Menu select Edit Menus and check System tools
There was never a sufficient answer. I ended up doing this through command-line even though tutorials showed it possible through the GUI. Most of this is moot nowadays as a result of all the GUI updates in the past couple of releases.

Media Madness: The Impact of Sex, Violence and Commercial Culture on Adults, Children and Society
For the 14th consecutive year, Wheelock College is offering a very
popular summer institute on the role that the media (television,
magazines, advertising, pornography, video games and music videos) plays in shaping our gender identity, our intimate relationships, our children's lives, and ultimately our culture. The institute is taught by Dr Gail Dines, author of Pornography: The Production and Consumption of Inequality, and Dr. Diane Levin, author of the forthcoming So Sexy So Soon.
Participants will learn:
- How media violence affects behavior and contributes to violence in society
- How media images perpetuate and legitimize sexism, racism,
consumerism and economic inequality
- How political and economic forces shape the media
- How media affects children's ideas about sexual behavior and
relationships with others
- How to critically deconstruct media images and develop media literacy skills
- How to become active in advocacy, community building and grass roots organizing
As a way to accommodate the needs of the participants, this year two days of the institute will be split into the following tracks:
1. Fighting the porn culture: how to think about and organize against the increasing pornification of our society. Led by Dr. Gail Dines,
with guest lectures by feminist educators and activists
2. Combating the hazards of media culture: how to work with children and teachers in a classroom setting.
- Price for non-credit institute: $475 (special rate for organizations
sending more than one person)

When I enable wallpaper compiz plugin all icons disappear from desktop. How can I fix that?
Unfortunately, this is not possible. To get desktop icons back you will have to disable the Compiz
The Compiz Wallpaper plugin can draw your background, which can allow you do do some cool stuff (like have a different background image for each workspace). But this conflicts with Nautilus' ability to draw the desktop, and only Nautilus can display desktop icons.
For more information, see the answers to this question. Apparently people have tried to make Nautilus draw a transparent desktop so you can see the images from the Compiz Wallpaper plugin behind the Nautilus icons, but those efforts have not yet been successful.
Ubuntu 13.04
I have tested it in Ubuntu 13.04 and its working.
I have also restarted the system and its working.
You can try to use Ubuntu Tweak and go to Tweaks → Desktop icons to turn them on and select which you want to show.
You can download Ubuntu Tweak here, or add a PPA and install it with the following commands:

A front wheel with a quick release mechanism can be installed in two orientations: the lever on the left, or the lever on the right. Does it matter in which orientation it's installed? If so, would any problems result from installing it the wrong way?
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question

- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
In my experience, a front rim is symmetrical, and it doesn't matter which direction it's in. Unlike the rear wheel, where there's a drivetrain side and a non-drivetrain side, the only place where the quick-release handle can be. However, there are some other considerations to keep in mind:
Tires will sometimes have a tread direction. This is usually marked on the tread itself, in the form of an arrow with "direction of rotation" indicated. If you put a rim on a backwards from how you installed the tire, that could be swapped by mistake.
In addition, it makes sense to have the quick releases for both wheels on the same side. I make sure when putting a tire on the rim to set it up so, if both release handles are on the same side, the front tire is in the direction of rotation.
Disc brakes may introduce other considerations; other answers on this page address this. Outside of that, it mechanically makes no difference what side the quick-release is on.
Generally the QR lever on the rear tire is on the left, so as to not interfere with the derailer. It makes (a little) sense to put the QR lever of the front tire on the same side (at least if you have any OCD tendencies). But it basically doesn't matter, so long as the tire has no preferred rotation direction (and you don't have something like disk brakes that demands a certain orientation).
(And if the tire direction is wrong you can always remove the skewer and insert it from the other side -- the axle itself is perfectly symmetrical.)
Actually, there can be difference, if you are using disc brakes. For practical reasons, you should put the release on opposite side to the brake rotor to avoid accidentaly touching it. First, it may be still hot from braking, when you need to swap the tire, second, your hands can have oil (or your body oil mixed with sweat) on them and that can be bad for the rotor surface and brake pads.
On the road bikes it is considered to be a tradition to put them on the left, non drive side (front and back).
If I understand the question, I am pretty sure that bicycle tires are heteroflexible, and their orientation, which side, same side, opposite side, does not really matter.
However, I have been told it's best to mount them so that the lever itself points to the back of the bicycle, so it does not get trapped in anything and pop open.
I think that it is really important for the logo on the front hub to be the right way up when looking at the bike from the front.
The q-r lever should be on the left because it then does not have any possibility to entangle with the q-r lever of the bike in front.
The lever should also be folder to point upwards in parallel with the fork blade.
The tyre should be pointing in the direction marked forward on the sidewall.
Having one of these points wrong distresses me deeply. Particularly if the tyre has to be taken off and turned around so it aligns with the logo on the hub.
I have read on a Shimano disc-brake manual that you should leave the skewer to the opposite side of the disc.
That is so because, THEORETICALLY, some skewer levers could be turned beyond their closed position (parallel to the fork blade), and its tip could block the disk, causing a fall.
Practically speaking, I have never seen any skewer, be it in my bike or others', in such a position. Besides, since Shimano skewer is assymmetrical, it is much harder to get a good position if you mount it on the side opposite to the disc.
As of skewer orientation, I prefer closing it "upwards", so the closed lever is parallel to the fork blade, pointing up, with just enough room to wrap the fingers around it, and never too tight.
I was just told by my LBS that both my front tire AND wheel we're on backwards. My tire (Vredestein Triforzza) has a slight diagonal sipe (but no arrow on the sidewall). My wheel's decal was upside down. I said "OK, but the wheel is symmetrical so what difference does it make?". The mechanic said the cones in the hub are designed to rotate in one direction and may loosen over time if the wheel is installed backwards. I was experiencing speed wobble. I hope this fixes it.
Put the quick release on your stronger arm side based on where you are stood/sat when you put it up/take it off. Then you are more likely to have an easy on/off. I change over my car tires due to more wear on one side than the other but I don't get this as much on the bike.
Front wheel quick release always on LEFT Pedal side in factorys, the tyre is put on with any arrows facing forward and to save checking we just put the quick release on left. Job was to check.

Two of the world's superpowers are said to be in talks about the fate of one man. He is a Chinese human rights dissident who had been under house arrest until he escaped.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had little to say about Chinese human rights activist Chen Guangcheng in the hours before her Monday night departure for Beijing.
"I'm not going to address this particular case at this time," Clinton said.
However she did say that human rights would be discussed alongside other key issues of the U.S./China relationship, including trade and the economy.
"A constructive relationship includes talking very frankly about those areas where we do not agree," Clinton said.
Chen is believed to be under U.S. protection in Beijing after his daring escape from house arrest last week. The blind lawyer had been detained for years after he exposed forced abortions under China's 'one child' policy. He released a video after his escape asking Beijing not to hurt the family he left behind.
"My wife, mother and children are still in the guards evil hands," he said.
The Obama administration is being careful not to inflame the issue before diplomatic talks begin on Thursday.
"I'm not going to make a statement on the issue," President Obama said.
President Obama sidestepped the topic but said the larger issue is one his administration has discussed with China before.
"What I would like to emphasize is that every time we meet with China, the issue of human rights comes up," President Obama said.
One possible outcome: Chen is granted asylum to live in the United States - something he said he doesn't want to do.
No one has heard from Chen's wife and young daughter since his escape last Sunday.

WEIRTON - The Weirton United Way is at 51 percent of its $260,000 goal for the 2013 campaign, officials announced Friday during a campaign report luncheon held at the Serbian-American Cultural Center.
Campaign Chair Don Gianni Jr. reported the campaign has raised $132,037.35 to date, following one month since the beginning of the campaign and several fundraising events held throughout the spring and summer.
United Way Executive Board President John Frankovitch said the success of the organization's campaign is a result of those involved, many of whom hold significant positions within the community, but who put all that aside when it comes to helping those in need.
Article Photos
Pat Ford, executive director of the Business Development Corp. of the Northern Panhandle, addressed the campaign team and volunteers for the Weirton United Way Friday during the first campaign report luncheon of the year. Ford encouraged those in attendance to focus on their day-to-day accomplishments in their efforts to help the community. -- Craig Howell
"Everybody in this room is a leader in some fashion," he said. "We all come together as servants for those who need us."
The guest speaker for the luncheon was Pat Ford, executive director of the Business Development Corp. of the Northern Panhandle.
Ford relayed some of the successes of the BDC in the last five years, including the redevelopment of the former Wheeling Corrugating plant in Beech Bottom, the efforts at the former Taylor, Smith and Taylor pottery site in Chester, and the retention of jobs and expansion at RIG Packaging in Wellsburg and Weirton.
Ford explained when he first took the job with the BDC, he immediately was faced with the loss of thousands of jobs in the area with the decline in the steel industry and other economic issues.
While the task can be daunting, he said, he chooses to take a day-to-day approach, looking instead at each project and success story, no matter how big or small they may appear.
"Don't focus on the destination. Focus on the journey," Ford said.
It's an approach he said can be used for the United Way, by not looking at the campaign goal but at the individual results of the efforts during the campaign - helping to pay someone's electrical bill, buying food and clothing for those in need, or providing after-school programs for local youth.
"If you accomplish something every day, you will succeed," Ford said.
Frankovitch also thanked Ford for the BDC's recent contribution to the United Way, which was the result of the sale of office furniture acquired during the purchase of the Wheeling Corrugating plant.
This year's campaign will benefit 13 area agencies, including the American Red Cross; Boys & Girls Club of Weirton; C.H.A.N.G.E., Inc.; Community Bread Basket; Dunbar Recreation Center; Hancock, Brooke, Ohio Retired & Senior Volunteer Program; Girl Scouts Black Diamond Council; Hancock County Sheltered Workshop; Hancock County 4-H; Mary H. Weir Public Library; Salvation Army, Weirton Corps.; Weirton Christian Center and Weirton Medical Center Foundation.
The next report luncheon is scheduled for Dec. 6.

Privacy policy seems fine, and the process is simple. It says it could take up to 4 weeks for the sample to arrive. Oh well.
My cats say thanks. Or they would if they weren't too busy ignoring me.
Just as an FYI, the jerky treats have been under investigation for killing a number of dogs. Not worth the risk of an expensive vet trip and possible death of my dogs, thank you very much. Here is the link, though there are more recent articles for anyone interested in doing their own research. http://newsfeed.time.com/2012/05/23/fda-nearly-1000-pets-sickened-by-china-made-dog-treats/
Stay away from these. My dog was sick and she was eating waggin train and milos kithcen treats. Both are being investigated for causing illness, kidney failure and death. After a trip to emergency, the vet, and blood work my dog is fine. We dont know for sure that these made her sick but there are thousands of complaints with the fda.
Yes...I would stay away too! Anything made in China is potentially deadly.
My son works as a Vet Tech at the animal trauma center here in Baltimore and he will not allow our dogs to have any chicken products made in China due to these lifer threatening illnesses. So not worth the risk
Just to keep things in perspective, since numbers don't lie: This is all related to 2200 cases of canine illness, 360 canine deaths, 1 feline death, and there are approximately 78.2 million dogs in this country. We import 86 million pounds of pet food/treats from China, and that's what most people feed.
@smith3408: I have only EVER let my dogs have one treat and that was the Waggin' Train Chicken Jerky Tenders that I brought at Walgreens. This treat is KILLING dogs and I KNOW that
was what killed my poor little Ginny. Ginny was only 6 years old and her favorite (and only) treat was the Chicken Jerky Tenders. Ginny was so tiny at 6 years old she was only 1 pound 5 ounces and we loved her very much. These treats killed my baby girl and I called the company and this is what they said "so far there haven't been ENOUGH death complaints to make it worty doing a recall"? I told tham that one death was too many. My vet said she has treated several dogs that ate this treat and she has a big sign in her office warning people NOT to feed anything (feed or treats) that comes from China. I wish all vets would do the same! This is a group on Facebook that has a lot of information

Nature's Bounty Super Potency Biotin and Source Naturals Skin Eternal Hyaluronic Acid: both reviewed here. I should note that this bottle of biotin actually represents four bottles of biotin, because I buy four or more at a time on sale and just combine them all into one (the bottle is much larger than it needs to be, so there's room for the contents of four full bottles and then some). I love this stuff!
Clinique Take the Day Off Eye Makeup Remover, Dior Hydra Life Pro-Youth Sorbet Creme x2 (both are minis), and Neutrogena Night Calming Makeup Removing Wipes x2: all reviewed here.
Matrix Biolage Color Care Shampoo: This is a good shampoo that I would definitely consider purchasing again (in fact, I think this is actually my second or third bottle, but prior to this bottle, it had been at least a few years since I used it). It smells good, lathers up nicely, gets my hair clean, and leaves it feeling soft and shiny. I would say Biolage Color Care shampoo ranks right up there in my book alongside Kerastase Bain Chroma Riche and Redken All-Soft Shampoo, the latter of which I decided to repurchase most recently. I don't color my hair anymore - I haven't in at least two years - but I still like to use shampoos made for color-treated hair, as they seem to treat it more gently.
Neutrogena Anti-Residue Shampoo: This one, on the other hand, I do not like. Yes, it does do its job of clarifying the hair, but it strips it so thoroughly in the process that my hair feels like straw afterward. It's easily recoverable by following it up with a nourishing conditioning mask like Kerastase Chroma Riche or Frederic Fekkai's Technician Color Care 3-Minute Mask, but it still makes me cranky. The smell of it doesn't help matters, either: my boyfriend described it as a "sharp" smell, and I agree. It's not pleasant. I couldn't wait to use this one up so I didn't have to deal with it anymore, and I will certainly not repurchase. If I find myself in need one day of a stripping shampoo to remove bad hair color from my hair, I'll use dish soap rather than buy this again. For regular clarifying on a weekly or biweekly basis, I prefer Alberto V05 Kiwi Lime Squeeze Clarifying Shampoo (smells delicious, too. Reviewed here) or Redken Cleansing Cream.
Batiste Blush Dry Shampoo: reviewed here.
And here are the products Boyfriend used up with his thoughts on them!
Garnier Fructis Anti-Dandruff Clean & Fresh 2-in-1: I was hoping this would work better for the dermatitis on my scalp because it was supposed to condition as well as cleanse (hence the 2-in-1 label), but I was disappointed. This worked fine to get my head clean, but didn't work any better than Head & Shoulders or the other products in the Garnier Anti-Dandruff line. I may need to revisit Neutrogena T-Gel to help get my dermatitis fully under control again; I won't repurchase this particular product from the Garnier Anti-Dandruff line.
American Crew Fiber: FANTASTIC product. 10/10 stars. It would let you style steel wool if you wanted to do that, and I've never known a product to hold hair so well yet leave a matte finish and soft feel. It's not at all rock-hard or shiny like many strong-hold products can be. I've already repurchased.
Clinique Men's Face Scrub: reviewed here.
Bath & Body Works Ocean for Men 2-in-1: reviewed here.
Olay Ultra Moisture In-Shower Body Lotion: This is a good product that makes my skin smell and feel great. I have keratosis pilaris on my arms and when I use this consistently, it helps smooth out the bumps. I have repurchased this, too.

Suppose that, while browsing, one comes across a hyperlink to a CSV file. Clicking on it should bring up a Save-File dialog, to download the file. I often proceed to upload the file to my GoogleDocs account, for viewing.
Is there a way (preferably browser-independent) to skip the download step, and somehow send the CSV file directly to my GoogleDocs account?

With the first snowfall of the season come perks like Blizzards.
We're not just talking about the kind that falls from the sky.
Despite the cold, many go to Dairy Queen on days like this to take advantage of their deals on sweet treats. Deals that have the restaurant keeping a close watch on the forecast.
"I'll take a look at the forecast whenever I'm doing a truck order.... a shipment order for food supplies, and I'll usually add a few more cases on to the order if I know it's going to snow one of the days," said Dairy Queen General Manager Marty Clark.
If it's snowing, you can buy one Blizzard and get another of equal or lesser value for free.
Clark says many were already taking advantage of the deal not long after snow began falling this morning.

Neutrogena MoistureShine Lip Sheers
You all know by now that I love moisturizing, sheer lip products, and Neutrogena MoistureShine Lip Sheers are just that. They have a soft peppermint scent and are of varying pigmentation (though I'd say most hover around "medium"). I absolutely adore these; as with any product I swatch, I wasn't expecting to keep most of the shades, but there were so many I didn't want to let go of. Because I couldn't justify to myself owning what seemed like a zillion products that would qualify as "sheer lipsticks," I ended up getting rid of about half of my MAC Slimshines in favor of several of these.
I wouldn't call them long-wearing, but I don't have to reapply these more often than every few hours (especially with the darker shades) unless I'm doing a lot of eating or drinking. They're SPF 20, available in virtually all drugstores and retail for approximately $9 each. Enjoy!
Last but not least, here are some LOTDs for you with my favorite shades. Ruby Bliss is easily one of the most universally wearable red lipsticks I've ever seen (and MakeupAlley product reviews confirm this, too!):
MoistureShine Lip Sheer: Sparkling Nude, Honey Breeze, Peach Sorbet, Cool Nectar, Sunny Berry, Mocha Chill, Shimmering Blush, Spring Blossom, Pink Splash, Fresh Rose, Glimmering Orchid, Frosty Mauve, Ripe Raspberry, Blackberry Ice, Plum Kiss, Ruby Bliss

Wow the color is amazing!! Not very sheer at all =) I might have to try these tooReplyDelete
Aw phooey, allergic to spf in most lippies but wow Ruby Bliss looks amazing on you!ReplyDelete
Babybubblz, I guess I should have elaborated on that :) most of the shades are sheerer than Ruby Bliss is, and almost all of them are quite buildable - you can apply one layer for a little bit of color, and add some more if you want a little more intense color. Only the darker shades are super-pigmented :)ReplyDelete
These look freaking gorgeous on you. I"m bummed, I bought frosty mauve a few months back because I wanted a sheer plum, but it goes on practically clear on me :(ReplyDelete
I love when you show it on your lips!ReplyDelete
Ruby Bliss looks awesome on your skin tone!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousApril 21, 2010 at 7:40 PM
just what i was hoping to find! thank you so much for swatching!ReplyDelete
- sarafinaOctober 28, 2012 at 3:47 PM
As a fair freckled dark blonde I struggle with reds a lot. I bought this on a whim marked down and I love it. Completely wearable with none of the slightly startling effect a more dense red can have on me.ReplyDelete
I wish they had a few more intense colours in the line up... a nice coral would make me happy ; -)
It layers REALLY well over covergirl outlast lipstains. They were made for each other!

A very rocking adventure with team Cape Town Tourism
Cape Town Tourism's team is passionate, fun and lives the brand! Recently, team members attended a half-day, adrenalin-pumping adventure experience with Blue Rock Cable Water Ski.
Arriving at the venue sporting My Cape Town T-shirts!
With nerves ruffled, the team was excited to try this out!
Off to the launch pad, while the the excitement mounts!
Being tugged into the water on a knee board is a little strange but the rush of wind passing over you is refreshing! However, after a few tries some opted out but those who stuck it out travelled the entire expanse of warm water. What a workout!
The team then prepared themselves for the foofie slide! Everyone put aside their fear and jumped off a cliff, while hanging onto a secure cable, and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
After an eventful day, members of the team said:
Sabeegah Kaffoor: "I absolutely loved it. It is perfect for a quick adrenalin fix, and such a good stress reliever. The pizza at the restaurant serves the best I've had. Blue Rock will surely see me soon!"
Lee Adams: "Having never contemplated water skiing, I now find myself wanting more. Blue Rock is so much more than I expected. It is an ideal environment for the family, with lots to do. I will definitely return. Thanks to the Blue Rock team for some awesome memories!"
Candice Klue: "Blue Rock is definitely a rocking destination with fun-filled activities, and is a wonderful place to visit with the family. Although it is a great picnic destination, their restaurant serves up food which is out of this world!"
Gadijah Darries: "It was an awesome experience! The rides were so much fun and I felt like a child again. It's a great place to go for a day out with the family. I will definitely do it again."
Cape Town has a number of adventure activities to share. Speak to our team about adventure activities or visit our list of adventure operators here.

I'm looking to improve my dutch oven cooking skills. What is the best source for proven recipes and good dutch oven techniques?
I love the Almost No-Knead Bread recipe from Cook's Illustrated as an example of baking in a Dutch Oven.
I like to use my Dutch oven for pot roasts, for New England Boiled Dinner, and for all sorts of soups and stews, and for making chili. Anthony Bourdain's Les Halles Cookbook has a Dutch Oven recipe for Gigot a Sept Heures (Seven hour Leg of Lamb) that is FABULOUS.
The main advantage of Dutch ovens are their versatility. There is nothing special about a dutch oven that you can't get from a combination of other pots and pans. Aside from using them as for boiling, frying, and braising, their thick walls provide a great way to bake.
You will find the best Dutch oven recipes in camping cook books because camping is where you need the versatility of a single cooking device. For example, you can bake bread during the day and then cook a whole chicken for dinner using the camp fire.
A quick search on Amazon will reveal a number of (based on their ratings) good books on Dutch Oven Cooking. If you have access to the "FoodNetwork" (or care to watch them via YouTube) there are any number of episodes that will feature Dutch Oven ideas and techniques. Alton Brown did an episode called "Going Dutch" that would be a good starting point, but everybody else from Bobby Flay to Melissa D'Arabian have episodes out there that Google can help you find.
Beyond that, if you have any 'more specific' questions (How do I spin straw into gold in a Dutch Oven?) you will likely get a better response from those questions.

I think immature (as a general description of the individual, as opposed to being applied to any specific action of theirs) adequately describes the classic situation of someone who should be moving out on their own, but doesn't feel--or doesn't show evidence of being--ready to take the big step.
Mentally retarded was originally the term for this, but euphemism creep has turned that into an unacceptable insult.
Having a development disorder is commonly used now.
You might be looking for manchild. This is more of a derogatory term, however.
A somewhat obscure one, borrowed from Japanese, is hikikomori, but this is perhaps more extreme than what you wanted.

I do not think you can be more succinct and avoid the connotations of a medical condition.

Leadership Qualities
Part of the Leadership For Dummies Cheat Sheet
All great leaders have certain characteristics in common. Being a great leader has nothing to do with how you look or how you speak; leadership involves preparation and accepting responsibility, even when you don't want to. These skills are necessary to be a leader and motivate people to follow:
Embracing Responsibility
Embracing responsibility is an attitude:
Drop the word no from your vocabulary.
Learn to volunteer.
Take an interest in people around you and learn to like people.
Promise little — deliver a lot.
Eliciting Cooperation
Your goal is to have your followers trust you:
Find out what people want — and why they want it.
Figure out ways of trading what you have — the power of a leader — for what you need — the cooperation of your group.
Smile at people and look them in the eye. It's the start of trust, and trust is the beginning of cooperation.
Share information with your team and keep them informed.
Leading starts with developing a vision:
Visions are more than ideas. They are doable dreams.
Visions link the present to the future.
Use visions to inspire your followers to achieve more than they thought possible.
Make your visions positive. Everyone wants to make the world a better place.
Planning is necessary if your team is to attain its goals. Keep these things in mind:
Plan for every contingency — and remember that you can't plan for every contingency.
Leave a lot of wiggle room in your plans. When things go wrong, you can adjust.
Make certain you have adequate resources. If you get into the lifeboat without food and water, be sure there's someone on board who has the skill to get both.
Plan for change. Be happy when it arrives.
Strive to take in as much information as you can:
Pay attention to the nuances of what people say and how they say it.
Pay attention to the needs of your group.
Focus and concentrate — listen to only one person at a time.
Learn to develop your own inner voice — and then learn to listen to it.
Pay attention to the world around you. Seeing is a form of listening, and visual impressions are often the most powerful.
Learn to hear the voices of the downtrodden. Their needs can become your cause.

It's been a difficult year for many area farmers.
Alabama's agriculture commissioner says heavy rains have damaged some Alabama crops and caused poor harvesting conditions.
Commissioner Ron Sparks said farmers could be in crisis mode if they don't get dry weather within the next two weeks.
But a local farmer says he's been scrambling for weeks to get his work done.
"We've been in the crucial period for the last 3 weeks in fact you might say the last month," said farmer Tracy Taylor.
2009 has been a strange year for area farmers.
"September and October are normally very dry for us and they've been totally opposite. Of course the whole year has been wet for the most part," said Taylor.
Heavy rainfall last spring and recent rain this fall has put many wiregrass farmers behind schedule.
"It's getting behind the peanut harvest, the cotton harvest, the whole 9 yards. We're a good 3 to 4 weeks behind where we'd normally be,"
Taylor says the excessive rain isn't completely to blame.
"When it's raining every week and it doesn't necessarily have to rain I mean when you got cloudy overcast weather like we have today peanuts just don't harvest,"
On his 45-acre plot of land in Pansey, Taylor says normally at this time of year he's finished harvesting. But because of the recent weather he's only about halfway done.
"We can deal with it throughout the growing season but the harvest season you really need it to dry off,"
Taylor says wet soil sets him back in two ways.
"The dirt needs to be dry in order to dig peanuts otherwise the peanuts pull off in the dirt and you can't harvest them in cloudy weather. Peanut harvest needs sunny weather, dry weather, for these machines to gather the peanuts without wasting the peanuts," added Taylor
"Everyday that you're not delivering, you're a day behind,"
He says the only thing you can do is be patient and hope the weather will cooperate.
"All you've got to do is wait on the good lord to send you some sunny weather and then when he does go at it!"
Taylor says all that rain doesn't affect the quality of his crop too much.
He says even though he's about a month behind schedule, he hopes he'll get some sunshine this week so he can finish harvesting the rest of his crop.
Commissioner Sparks added the rains have reduced crop yields on many farms and says most affected crops are cotton, soybeans, corn and peanuts.

Basically I'm setting a button on my android game for when a user gets a highscore he can share it on facebook in his timeline
I've used the facebook sdk for this, based on the hellofacebook example, but instead of and update status is a post to the timeline, the permission is the same, "publish_actions" my problem is, the first time the user uses the share button, I show the facebook LoginButton, when clicked it redirects to the fb page where the user must accept the app to use hes account, and then back to my activity, now with the share button activated, but when I click Share, it goes again to that same page to ask the autorization of the user to publish, only after that my app can finnally publish on the users timeline
Now I understand why this happens, cause the first time I made a request to get a session for read, without the permission "publish_actions" and the second time I ask for the permissions, I tried to set the permissions at the first request, I get an error, cause I cant ask for publish permissions in a read session. And I cant ask for a opentoPublish before I get the first session for read.
Is there an easy way to get the session already with the publish permission just in 1 go ??
Or better yet, without asking for the user permission, logging by itself via sso, with the publish permission, so that the user only sees the share button, and it just shares my info in hes timeline?

Is there any reason why this is missing from Unity? It's a really helpful thing to have when you have a lot of windows open.
I have developed an application indicator which shows a list of open windows. To keep with the Unity one-panel style, windows are accessed from an icon on the indicator panel.
Category: Other, Window Management
Window-list displays a list of current open desktop windows. Windows can be activated by selecting them from the menu list.
Window-List is available for all versions of Ubuntu running Unity.
install via ppa:
deb package is also available from the launchpad repository.
run application by:
Once installed, open a window in the list by a right click.
I've the same problem, but I found tint2. It is a bottom bar with all yours opened windows, it is available on main Ubuntu repo, and you can install it with
To help configure tint2 you can use this python based gui:
Source: http://www.tuxgarage.com/2011/10/running-tint2-under-unity.html
A quite convenient alternative to a windows list is the windows preview inbuilt in the Unity Launcher. A minimized preview of all windows opened by a certain application is shown when clicking on its launcher icon. This is shown here on Unity 2D for three LibreOffice windows opened at the same time:
Just click on the window you want to work on to have it opened on top.
Note that all running applications that have a window opened are marked with tiny white dots on the left side of their panel icon.
Press Super+W to see window previews from the current workspace and Super+Shift+W to see those from all workspaces. You can close each window just by a middle click on it.
(Hold down Super by itself for a list of shortcuts that can help sort windows.)
There is also,
More info http://www.webupd8.org/2012/06/unity-window-quicklists-switch-between.html
Download it https://launchpad.net/~alanbell/+archive/unity
The list of open windows in unity is shown as a dock (the launcher) would be, on the left side. If you need this on the bottom, you can use a dock like Docky or Avant Window Navigator, or possibly even a panel like the one in fluxbox.
Unity is a dock-based interface, the dock replaces the taskbar usually found on the gnome-panel. If i were you i would log in with a classical mode rather than Unity, which will provide the gnome-panel and taskbar, and if you do want a dock, you can use Docky or Cairo-Dock. The latter will allow you more cutomisation.
You can also run gnome-panel in Unity, see How do I use the GNOME Panel in Unity?
Interestingly enough, shantanu, I have taken a closer look at this and found graphical indication of multiple instances of an application in the Unity dock. What I did not originally realize is that when I click on the appropriate icon in the dock, the multiple instances of the application are graphically depicted as window previews. From there it is simply a matter of selecting the instance in which I am interested.

After marinating the bird overnight in the refrigerator, cut it into four sections, remove the breast bone, and place it on the grill, flipping occasionally until it is cooked through and ready for a delicious Thanksgiving meal.

6 Books That Destroy Your Image of the People Who Wrote Them
Sometimes the name of the author tells you everything you need to know about a book: If you see the words "Stephen King" on the cover, you know it's gonna be creepy as hell and set in New England, and if you see "Nicholas Sparks," you know there's smooching inside, and that there'll be a shitty movie of it in two years. But then you find out that J.K. Rowling secretly wrote a detective novel and everybody loses their shit.
But that's nothing compared to the bizarre shit cranked out by some of the most iconic authors of all time ...
#6. H.P. Lovecraft Wrote a Wacky Romantic Comedy
Lóránd Gelner/Photos.com
H.P. Lovecraft's disturbed imagination enriched the 20th century's nightmares by giving birth to concepts like the Necronomicon (the book of the dead) and Cthulhu, everyone's favorite octopus-headed cosmic entity. There are many (terrifying) recurrent themes in Lovecraft's work, but the main message in his stories seemed to be "All of us are fucked and there's no possible escape from the horror, not even in death."
But He Also Wrote ...
"Sweet Ermengarde," a whimsical farce about love, opportunism, and a stash of gold buried under a farm.
"Almost nobody dances sober, unless they happen to be insane." -H.P. Lovecraft
The story stars the pure, beautiful farmer's daughter Ethyl Ermengarde, who is taken from her family and virtuous suitor, Jack Manly (Lovecraft's second best named character after B'gnu-Thun, the Soul-Chilling Ice-God), by their villainous landlord. The landlord then promptly forgets about her when he finds out about the aforementioned buried gold. Later Ermengarde escapes to the city, falls in with the right kind of wealthy widow, and makes a fortune. She comes home to reunite with her love, but realizes that the landlord is quite wealthy, and so she marries him instead. It seems like the sort of plot the Farrelly brothers would put together in 15 minutes.
David Shankbone/Wikimedia
"We're thinking Jack Black in drag for Ermengarde and the suitors."
According to letters Lovecraft was writing at the time, the whole thing was apparently motivated by the fact that, back in the late 1910s/early 1920s, those rags-to-riches stories were all the rage, while his tales of monsters that make you insane when you look at them weren't, so this was his minor revenge. Also, maybe, just maybe, old H.P. took a look at his last name one day and decided he could make a fortune crafting romantic tales, but it didn't quite work out that way.
In fact, such was Lovecraft's reputation and the literary typecasting that the first time "Sweet Emengarde" was published for public consumption was in the horror collection Beyond the Wall of Sleep, between tales with names like "Herbert West -- Reanimator" and "The Crawling Chaos." Shockingly, its potential audience of bored housewives never managed to find it there.
#5. Nostradamus Wrote a Book of Jam Recipes
Slavica Stajic/Photos.com
Nostradamus earned a place in the pages of history by vaguely predicting vague world events that vaguely came true, sort of. Nostradamus' followers allege that in his book The Prophecies, published way back in the 16th century, he predicted things like Hitler's rise to power, the Kennedy assassination, and the 9/11 attacks. And yet he said nothing about Shaquille O'Neal's Kazaam.
That bit about the "gienne struck by lightning" doesn't count.
But still, it's precisely the vagueness of his writing that gives Nostradamus that air of mystery that has allowed him to remain a household name for so many centuries. Does this mean that 500 years from now people will see that "ancient aliens" guy from the History Channel as a powerful mystic? Probably, yes.
But He Also Wrote ...
Treatise on Make-Up and Jam, which is exactly what it sounds like: a cookbook full of jam recipes.
"And the jelly will become one with the cream of peanut, and the bread will rejoice, for it is made delicious."
Nostradamus' jams were apparently so yummy that the book managed to become a best-seller in 1555, back when like five people knew how to read. It even became the standard on how to make jam by the jam makers in Paris. Nostradamus gathered all these recipes way before going into the future-guessing business, when he was an aimless 20-something going around Europe researching herbal medicines (he listened to a lot of Frank Zappa and grew his hair long during this time).
The book also included recipes for other delicious treats like candy, marzipan, and toothpaste. However, this was still a book by Nostradamus, so naturally there's plenty of bullshit in there. One recipe claimed to be able to cure the plague. Another could turn your hair blonde. And then there's the one that, when properly fed to another person, could instantly convince them to have sex with you (and by "properly fed," we mean you have to spit it into their mouth). So, yeah, maybe the whole best-seller thing had less to do with the jams being delicious and more with their plague-curing/boner-causing powers.
#4. Roger Ebert Wrote a Filthy Movie for the Sex Pistols
Roger Ebert's opinion on what makes a good movie can be found on literally thousands of Wikipedia pages and the minds of three generations of cinephiles. Ebert's film reviews were so respected that he received an unprecedented Pulitzer Prize for them. During his final years, the man reinvented himself as the classy uncle of the Internet, telling us what to think about a number of topics and totally owning up on the few instances when he got it wrong.
He would've come around on video games, too.
But He Also Wrote ...
Who Killed Bambi? This aborted movie starred the Sex Pistols and was so depraved, even Sid Vicious thought it was a little too much.
Chicago Art Department
"Oi, where's my Fred Astaire dance number?"
The scene in question, suggested to Ebert by the Pistols' manager, Malcolm McLaren, would have found Vicious shooting up heroin with his mother and then making out with her. The complete mess of a human being that was Sid read it in front of Ebert and the director, and his reaction was essentially, "Man, you guys are freaks."
The director, by the way, was the king of boobies, Russ Meyer, for whom Ebert had written some softcore pornos in the early '70s, as we've mentioned before. It was this work that compelled the Pistols to hire the pair for their proposed movie, which was supposed to be the A Hard Day's Night for the punk generation. Ebert rose to the challenge and wrote the entire thing, while Meyer spent his time carefully collecting the amplest bosoms in Britain.
Pictured: two punk motherfuckers.
Filming of the movie actually did get started for a few days and a couple of minutes of footage was shot, but then the production collapsed because it turns out the Sex Pistols weren't the best when it came to keeping track of their money. It's hard to imagine Ebert being taken so seriously as a film reviewer if such a turd of a movie had come out under his name, although it would have been interesting to find out if he would have become the first movie critic to have a Pulitzer Prize taken away from him.

Entrepreneurship isn't defined by a major – a Dakota Wesleyan University nursing student has created a business model that has placed her in the running for the Governor's Giant Vision Award, which will be announced April 15.
Ashley Kingdon-Reese, of Huron, is a DWU nursing student and creator of Independent Health Solutions, a business plan she intends to make a reality by this summer and which will offer home health care services, independent from any particular hospital.
"I believe this will be the first agency in South Dakota that will be independent (from a hospital), offering care equally, without competition between difference agencies," Reese said.
Home health care begins with a doctor's assessment that a patient could better recover at home, under the supervision of a home care nurse. This can be for a variety of reasons, Reese said, for instance, if the patient's needs do not require 24-hour attention of a hospital staff and could be treated at home. Another reason could be to prevent exposure to hospital germs or possible infection for patients with compromised immune systems.
"Prior to this, all house health care came from a hospital," Reese said. "Independent Health Solutions would be a hub, a place where nurses will be and the public is welcome. The front area will have a conference room for family meetings to take place with or without the patient."
Reese said that this is advantageous for families who would like to discuss treatments for family members with dementia, in particular, without upsetting the patient.
Independent Health Solutions would offer temporary nurse staffing and also provide catered education for anyone in the field.
The Governor's Giant Vision competition names the top 13 candidates and Reese is the only nonbusiness student on the list.
"It was a case of 'see a need, fill a need,'" she said. "I have the location, and doors will open July 1. This is going to happen with or without the grant. It would be great to have it, but I will find a way to do it without it."
The winner of the Governor's Giant Vision could win up to $5,000. But another great opportunity provided to all nominees is the possibility of "angel investors," people who give grants or invest in a company.
"So this is a great opportunity to get your name out there," she said.

NEW CUMBERLAND - A property dispute between Hancock County commissioners and attorney Lawrence Manypenny most likely will be settled in court.
Both parties in the dispute appeared Wednesday morning before visiting Circuit Court Judge David W. Hummel Jr. of Marshall County. Hancock County Circuit Court judges have recused themselves from the case.
"This thing's simply not going to go away on its own," Hummel said.
In the meantime, Hummel said the public's access to Hancock County Magistrate Court must be maintained. Manypenny claims ownership of the land up to and including the Magistrate Court sidewalk and enclosed staircase. The court building and Manypenny law office are next door to each other.
On Feb. 6, Manypenny's office erected caution tape, orange pylons and "no trespassing" signs on the strip of land between the two buildings. That same day, county commissioners filed a motion for an injunction against Manypenny and his wife, Connie, asking that the barriers be taken down.
At Wednesday's hearing, Manypenny's law partner, James Carey, said the barriers did not physically obstruct access to the court building, but simply delineated the property boundary lines.
"No one was prevented from showing up at Magistrate Court," Carey said.
Hummel said surveyor's tape in front of a Magistrate Court side door should be taken down. The door is used by a deputy clerk for ingress and egress when court is in session, said Hancock County Assistant Prosecutor William Fahey, representing the commissioners.
Fahey said the county has an interest in keeping Magistrate Court "open and functioning until we can fully adjudicate the matter."
Commissioners, in their motion for an injunction, are challenging Manypenny's claim of ownership, saying the property in question has been used for Magistrate Court business for 30 years.
Fahey said the legal doctrine of "adverse possession" may apply. In cases of adverse possession, courts sometimes recognize the longtime occupant of a piece of property as the rightful owner.
At Wednesday's hearing, Hummel asked Fahey to draft a new complaint and state clearly the county's legal grounds for seeking relief in court. "Quite frankly ... I find the petition inartfully drafted and woefully inadequate." Fahey apologized, saying he prepared the paperwork hurriedly on the same day the barriers were erected.
Manypenny has until March 11 to respond to the amended complaint.

...I need to move some $$ I don't plan on using anytime soon from savings into maybe a 2-yr CD...maybe go from 0.7% to 1.2%.
Same for stew meat, $4.99 lb
Seems I'm getting poorer pretty fast.
Much cheaper to buy chuck or rump roasts on sale & cut up the meat into stew size yourself.
BTW, I didn't check the prices on chuck roast. It may be just as bad.
Speaking of low carb... I discovered yesterday that Basmati rice has a MUCH lower glycemic index rating than the Jasmine rice I have been using. 56 vs 109.
I love Basmati rice - it's great. Didn't know it was better for me. I switched to brown rice a while back. Don't know where it is on the glycemic index, but I'm guessing it's better than even Basmati.
I made a pot roast last week without potatoes - lots of carrots & lots of onion. Turned out pretty good.
I'm gonna have to make a pot roast with just carrots and onions.... maybe a little celery. Ha ha, gravy is still good over carrots and onions, eh? Ha ha back to the store tomorrow, my mouth is watering already. I luvs me some pot roast!

The two-year long fight between Russellville's city council and the Electric Plant Board is over after a judge ruled in favor of the EPB.
Special Judge Kelly Mark Easton of Elizabethtown overturned the decision of the council, by a four-to-two vote, to kick board members Berks Brown, Joe Carrico, and Bill Fuqua off the EPB board. The council had voted the members off in 2003 after accusing the EPB board of lavish travel expenses and health insurance policies.
EPB attorneys argued the board members were removed without the proper due process of a hearing, and Easton agreed. The city council held a lengthy series of hearings stretching out over months after their vote to remove the board members, but Easton ruled that "the record reveals a pattern during the proceedings which supports a finding of predetermination."
Easton's ruling is being called "historic" by EPB attorney Fred Greene, who says the decision sets clear boundaries on the authority of any city council to govern EPB policy.
In his ruling, Easton says, "The city's ability to control the EPB is limited. If it does so by proper procedure; it may remove board members upon a finding supported by substantial evidence. Otherwise, the city has no authority to abolish the EPB or manage its affairs."
The city council's attorney in the case, David Broderick, told WBKO he is "disappointed by the ruling," but hasn't decided whether or not they will file an appeal.
Of the six current council members, only one will remain when the newly-elected council is sworn in near the first of the year.

My computer boots to a black screen, what options do I have to fix it?
Here is perhaps more specific information on a subject several others have posted about, in hope that someone will be able to provide a suggestion to correct it.
I'm working with a Dell Inspiron Mini 10 Netbook. I performed a fresh install of Ubuntu 11.04, Installed all applicable drivers & updates, Then performed a release upgrade to v11.10. Ubuntu booted up correctly with unity working. After checking for any new drivers and applying updates, I then performed a release upgrade to v12.04. Upon restart, The screen initially turned the customary purple, Then went black, Followed shortly by the start up drum sound.
By pressing the Ctrl+Alt+F2 combination, I was able to log onto the Netbook. Pressing Alt+F7 allowed me to see what normally appears in the lower half of the screen sitting in the upper half, With the lower half still black. I entered my password again and then clicked the gear at the top right corner of the screen & selected "LogOut", Which caused the Netbook to display a full login screen, Allowing me to change my session to Unity 2D and log onto the Netbook successfully. The Netbook does not remember the last session used however, And so the above procedure must be repeated after every restart or when powering up.
I have modified the Grub file to include

I want to make my Templar (modified Paladin) into a mounted knight using Animal Companion and Command. Could I use a single instance of a multiclass move, or would I need to use two moves?
Sign up

You would normally need two multiclass moves to take two moves, but Animal Companion and Command are starting moves that don't do anything without the other, so they depend on each other. In that case, they count as one for multiclassing (p. 31):
However, those two moves cover more (and are missing other things) than what you need to emulate a Paladin's holy mount, and they're definitely overblown for just a mundane mount but with a move to represent training. Two moves is too expensive for what you'll likely use it for, too. The Dungeon World Way here is to write a custom move. Especially since you're already working with a modified character class, a custom move is the most appropriate way to handle this. Talk with your GM and figure out what you want it to do, and consult the Advanced Delving chapter for advice on custom moves.
This is too long for the comment forms.
Here's the move I made:
