Earlham's Politics Department prepares today's college students to be leaders tomorrow. We believe the Millennial Generation will play an important role in the development of a better world. In the twenty-first century, we are faced with converging crises ranging from international political instability to climate change, from population growth to energy shortages, from declining agricultural yields to endangered human rights. We believe that as rising adults our students will help find solutions to these problems, whether through grassroots efforts or more formal modes of governance. It is a great thrill to help provide Earlhamites with the tools needed to succeed in a life of public service after college.
So, how do we do it? Incoming students have the opportunity both to build a foundation in political studies by completing our core requirements and the flexibility to find their own path as they choose the electives that will help define their undergraduate experience. Students and faculty work closely both in and out of the classroom – these collaborative learning opportunities are invaluable in helping students find and meet their potential. Recent student-faculty research projects have included a group of students working on a better understanding of the issues surrounding African citizenship, a group writing an extensive policy brief recommending the development of a college garden on campus, and a group thinking through Quaker and pacifist ideas about preventing atrocity crimes. Finally, each new major has a dedicated adviser who is committed to providing the guidance needed to not only succeed as an undergraduate, but to prepare for life beyond Earlham.
The Department offers three courses that fulfill the Domestic component of the Perspectives on Diversity requirement, POLS 243, 346 and 366; and 14 courses that fulfill the International component of that requirement, POLS 170, 350, 351, 352, 355, 357, 359, 363, 371, 372, 373, 374, 377 and 378. The Department also offers two Writing Intensive courses, POL 365 and 375, and yearly Earlham Seminars.
Our majors will receive a solid grounding in the discipline as a result of completing our core curriculum and their required electives. In addition to gaining specific knowledge, we integrate the A.R.T.S. inventory of skills into the curriculum that are designed to help majors succeed after they leave Earlham.
Majors in Politics are expected to achieve both depth and breadth of knowledge in the field. They are strongly encouraged to have a public service internship and/or international study experience.
Politics majors are required to take a minimum of 11 courses in Politics that must include the following:
The introductory course:
One of the following quantitative courses:

New VP for research and graduate education named
Stephen Kresovich, vice provost for life sciences and professor at Cornell University, has been named vice president for research and graduate education at Carolina, effective Oct. 1.
Stephen Kresovich
Kresovich succeeds Rose Booze, who served as interim vice president for research since last August and was associate vice president for research from 2006 to 2008. During Booze's tenure in the Office of Research and Economic Development research funding grew dramatically. Booze has been named founding director of a new University-wide Brain and Behavior Institute.
"Rose played a vital role in many research initiatives, and her leadership will continue to be important in the new institute," said University of South Carolina President Harris Pastides. "Carolina's faculty members have an impressive record of sponsored research, and I believe Stephen Kresovich has the necessary skills to help keep our research enterprise moving aggressively forward.
"We're excited as well about the synergies of combining graduate education with the vice president for research position."
Kresovich said he is looking forward to working across the University to develop more opportunities.
"I am really impressed with the breadth and comprehensive nature of South Carolina's research and graduate programs; there are many pockets of excellence throughout the University," said Kresovich, who has also served as director of Cornell's Institute for Genomic Diversity and Institute for Biotechnology and Life Science Technologies and was interim vice provost for research in 2007.
As vice provost for life sciences, Kresovich has led strategic planning, fund raising, faculty hiring, new facilities planning, development of shared core research facilities, and support of educational and training activities for Cornell's New Life Sciences Initiative.
He sees his primary role at Carolina as one of advocacy and network building.
"Anything I can do to recruit, retain, or otherwise optimize working conditions for the University's faculty is the most important thing I can do," he said. "I plan to work nationally and internationally to find new sources of funds that will help us take on initiatives in all disciplines, from the sciences and engineering to humanities and the arts. For a comprehensive institution to be great, balance is important, and that means building pillars in disciplines such as English and history as well as the physical sciences and engineering.
"It will be imperative for me to know and work closely with key players and key initiatives across the campus and throughout the University system. I like building teams that can bring a vision to reality."
In his own research Kresovich has collaborated with faculty at Clemson University and has met faculty with similar interests at the Medical University of South Carolina and the College of Charleston. He envisions Carolina cultivating more inter-institutional research partnerships and tailoring its graduate programs to the needs of the state.
"I'm really impressed by Carolina's commitment to serve the state and link its research with economic development -- that message came across from the president and all of the deans and faculty members I met," Kresovich said.
Kresovich received his bachelor's degree in biology from Washington and Jefferson College, a master's in agronomy at Texas A&M University, and a Ph.D. in crop physiology and genetics from The Ohio State University in 1982. Following graduation, he conducted research at Battelle Memorial Institute and Texas A&M University. Prior to joining the Cornell faculty, he was laboratory director at two U.S. National Genetic Resources Program gene banks in New York (1987-93) and in Georgia (1993-98). Kresovich's internationally recognized research focuses on conservation genetics. He is a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
Kresovich is married to Janice Kilburn, a lecturer at Ithaca College who earned a Ph.D. in developmental psychology. They have two sons, Jacob and Alexander, who both are 2008 Cornell graduates.

Three Bean Casserole Recipe
When our church cookbook was revised a couple years ago, this was included among the favorites. My husband and I are retired farmers. Our main crop was wheat, and we also raised three daughters and a son. We began growing beans when our son joined the operation. These days, our home is on 1 acre—the lawn, trees and a very small garden keep us busy. The truth is we sometimes have to make the time to do the things we want to do!
- 1 can (15 ounces) kidney beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 can (15 ounces) garbanzo beans or chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 1 can (15-1/4 ounces) lima beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 pound lean ground beef (90% lean)
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Dash pepper
- 2 tablespoons prepared mustard
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1. In a 2-1/2-qt. baking dish, combine beans; set aside. In a skillet, cook the beef, onion and garlic over medium heat until beef is no longer pink. Remove from the heat; drain. Add the remaining ingredients to the skillet; mix well. Stir beef mixture into beans.
- 2. Bake at 350° for 45 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 6-8 servings.

Breastfeeding Spoken Word Poem - 'Embarrassed'
If you haven't seen it yet here is 'Embarrassed' a spoken word poem by Hollie McNish on her thoughts on feeling so embarrassed at breastfeeding that she often ended up feeding in the toilet, but she says:
'And I'm sure the milk makers love all the fuss. All the worry and stress and looks of disgust. As another mother turns from nipples to powder. Ashamed or embarrassed by comments around her.'
Does this resonant with you? How does hearing this poem make you feel? Did feeling embarrassed affect how you fed your baby?
It reminds me of my early breastfeeding days where I would hide away in a corner of a cafe or feed my baby under a feeding apron - feeling awkward of others' looks. A far cry from today - this week I fed my second baby boy on a packed minibus!
The poet ends with the words:
'So no more will I sit on these cold toilet lids no matter how embarrassed I feel as she sips, because in this country of billboards covered in tits, I think we should try to get used to this.'
Here, here!
Wishing everyone happy, confident feeding times,

It looks like Nokia is continuing to concentrate on mobile photography as the venture-capital investment arm of the company, Nokia Growth Partners, is throwing some money behind Pelican Imaging (http://www.pelicanimaging.com). The technology is expected to creep into future Lumia phones as the hardware behind the Pelican Imagining gets commercialized.
So what does Pelican Imagining bring to the table? They make the software to handle multiple, tiny lenses that make up a meta-camera.

A strange spectacle of elegant violence, 'Cantina' is the signature show of the London Wonderground, a spiegeltent pop-up venue on the South Bank. Created in 2010 by the Australian company Strut & Fret ('Tom Tom Crew'), it's comparable to 'La Clique' in that it offers a series of turns blending circus, comedy and magic. But 'Cantina' is a darker, more cohesive affair – carnival with a dash of David Lynch.
The show has a Depression-era, Dust Bowl feel with ingenious mechanical scavenging, underpinned by Nara Demasson's ever-present score: exploiting found and made instrumentation, it hints at 'Amélie', Erik Satie, and 'The Third Man'.
The performance is mainly non-verbal – acrobatics, contortion, aerialism – and of a very high standard, from splits on the tightwire to a walk across freestanding Champagne bottles. The fluidity is superb and the six circus performers, led by Chelsea McGuffin (who co-directs with Scott Maidment), bring charisma and humour; Mozes's Ursula Martinez-style stark-bollock-naked magic act stands out on that front.
What's really striking about 'Cantina', though, is its movement into darker psychological terrain. It's laced with erotic and violent tension and motifs of power and abuse, humiliation and co-dependence: bodies are twisted, struck and thrown; couples go at each other; the aerialist's rope has never seemed closer to the hangman's. There's plenty of business with shoes, too. An impressive night of virtuoso skill and fantasy – but don't bank on sweet dreams afterwards.

La Clique it aint!! There is only so long a double jointed girl is interesting. The show got boring very quickly. Huge disappointment.
Breathtaking. A must see.
High energy and engagingly athletic old world romp. Transforms you to a different era with a bit of cheek, some daring feats, and a touch of "front" (you'll see what I mean if you go). A brilliant night!!

Well I have been messing around with it for hours, edit the xorg.conf file a million times. I just don't see what is so different about when it uses the CD and when it boots from the HD?
When booting from the CD I use the second option (KDE Graphics mode or something) Not sure if that configures it differently. Either way it can't have anything to do with the xorg.conf, cause the same exact one is used for the CD and the HDD.
I notice when running from the CD it uses 'su --login -c xconf;kdm' could that have anything to do with it?
I will take any suggestions!
Still going after this problem. I noticed while reinstalling BT3, after configuring lilo I get this:

Four Associated Press reporters have won the Edgar A. Poe Award for their stories about the New York City Police Department's widespread surveillance of Muslims after the Sept. 11 terror attacks.
The White House Correspondents' Association said Matt Apuzzo, Adam Goldman, Eileen Sullivan and Chris Hawley were chosen for a series of stories that "read like a novel, with twists and turns that leave you shaking your head in disbelief." The award, which carries a $2,500 prize, honors excellence in coverage of events of significant national or regional importance.
It's the third major prize for the series, which has also won the Goldsmith Prize for Investigative Reporting and a George Polk Award.
The association said ABC's Jake Tapper and Politico's Glenn Thrush, Carrie Budoff Brown, Manu Raju and John Bresnahan won the Merriman Smith award for excellence in presidential coverage under pressure. Tapper won in the broadcast category for breaking the news that rating agency Standard & Poor's was on the verge of downgrading the federal government's triple-A credit rating because of concerns over political gridlock in Washington.
In the print category, Thrush, Budoff Brown, Raju and Bresnahan of Politico won for their report on the deal between President Barack Obama and congressional Republicans to raise the U.S. debt ceiling. Each Merriman Smith award carries a $2,500 prize.
The Aldo Beckman award, which recognizes a correspondent who personifies the journalistic excellence and personal qualities of Aldo Beckman, a former WHCA president and a correspondent for the Chicago Tribune, went to Scott Wilson of The Washington Post. Wilson was recognized for his "deeply reported and nuanced stories, his evocative writing and his clear presentation of complex issues, particularly on the foreign policy front." The award, given jointly by the Tribune and the WHCA, is $1,000.
Thrush also was cited with an honorable mention for the quality and breadth of his reporting and the clarity of his writing.
The Poe prize awarded to the AP team of Apuzzo, Goldman, Sullivan and Hawley is funded by the New Orleans Times-Picayune and Newhouse Newspapers in honor of their distinguished correspondent Edgar A. Poe, a former WHCA president. Damian Paletta of the Wall Street Journal was awarded an honorable mention for his series of stories on the divisive debate about Social Security Disability Insurance.
The winners will be honored at a dinner on April 28.

Hi OP,
I am just going to ride on this post hope you dont mind.
I am having the exact same problems, with the exact same image and i too have verfied MD5 re-burned media.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
I'm new to BT5, but not new to Linux -- I use a Debian variant as my primary OS.
N.B. I'm using BT5 on a laptop, with windows Vista as its primary OS. I'm running BT5 in live mode.
When I try the default boot option, the laptop hangs during the boot cycle prior to giving me a bash prompt ($ or #).
The last messages I can see on the screen are as follows:
/opt/framework3/postgresql/scripts/ctl.sh postresql could not be started
LOG: database system was shut down on [date] [time]
LOG: database system ready to accept connections
LOG: autovacuum launcher started
The system hangs at this point.
I've also tried rebooting into safe mode; this brings me to the KDE login screen, but I am unable to login using the default root password.
If I switch to another terminal and change the root password, then switch back to the KDE login screen using Ctrl-Alt-F7 and try to login again, the KDE splash screen appears with the 4 Chinese characters, but it simply bounces me back to the KDE login screen again.
The .iso I am attempting to use is: BT5-KDE-64.iso. I downloaded this .iso and verified the MD5 hash with the one on the website. I used K3B to burn this a DVD, and had K3B verify the file after burning.
On the off chance that I had some bad media, I burned the .iso again on another brand of media, verified the burn again, and got the same result.
The laptop in question is a HP, aobut 18 months old, T4400 Core2Duo CPU, 3GB RAM, Mobile IntelExpress4 Chipset family.
All in all, not an auspicious beginning.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi sorry for the earlier post this link seems to be addressing this problem.
Hi, I've got the same issue, I've checked the link you sent, however, this is a different issue I think. It never gets to the point to type anything just freezes at "LOG: autovacuum launcher started" as the original posted stated.
I'm trying to install on a Toshiba Stallite M645 Core i5 4gb ram
the fix you from the link worked for my AlienWare but for my laptop it never gets to the root@root: login.
I'm still searching though to see if I can find something.
Sorry to bump an old thread, but this was the ONLY thread I could find involving this issue. I managed to fix it with a simple:
Prior to this, I had tried everything from uninstalling postgresql and ufw (the two last things started before the hang) to reinstalling X. Hope this helps if anybody runs across this again.Code:apt-get install gdm

The Bands You Need to Know Right Now
Right now, the music industry — folks famously quick to wash, rinse, and repeat when they strike gold — thinks your next favorite band will sound a lot like Mumford & Sons. The byproduct won't just be dozens of bands that sound like Mumford & Sons, but perhaps the revival of one of rock 'n' roll's most woefully underutilized formats: the chant. See, a folk revival can only mean good things for the chant. Take as evidence this scrappy Denver trio's song. During the first four seconds, we hear the title chanted and can immediately lock into its rhythmic heartbeat. Virtually every line is punctuated by a "ho hey," and those that aren't get treated with a foot stomp or clap. Intuitively fun, it also underscores the chant's key appeal: In order to sing along to a chant, you don't actually have to be able to sing at all.
Because of the silky way it's sung, the chorus plays more like a cooing sound than a pair of actual words — making it, oddly enough, the song's most traditionally R&B element.

Report: OSU QB Miller reinjures shoulder
Here's a bombshell that could change the landscape of college football in 2014.
The Columbus Dispatch is reporting that Ohio State quarterback Braxton Miller reinjured his right shoulder during practice Monday, and that the injury puts Miller's entire 2014 season "in jeopardy."
Ohio State has not confirmed the report.
If it turns out to be true, though, this is obviously huge news, and a devastating blow to the Buckeyes. It seems like at a minimum Miller would miss the beginning of the season, and if he's out for the entire year, Ohio State goes from a preseason favorite in the Big Ten to, well, nobody really knows.
That's just the kind of impact player Braxton Miller is, as he's considered by just about anyone you ask a candidate for the Heisman Trophy this season.
Miller had surgery on his shoulder in February after hurting it in Ohio State's Orange Bowl loss to Clemson. If Miller misses time -- for whatever length of time -- he'd likely be replaced by redshirt freshman J.T. Barrett, who is second on the Ohio State depth chart.

Bethesda Blog has a new post with details on wasteland survival, with the author of the Official Game Guide specifically going into the game's Survival and Crafting skills and their effects on cooking and creating ammo types. The rest of it reads as a plug to buy the guide, however.
There's also mention of a return of Rose's Deathclaw Omelet from Fallout 2 which can be created, presumably, after the player brings back a Deathclaw egg.

LONG BEACH - Long Beach will announce its No. 1 story of 2012 on its Facebook page at 11 a.m. today.
City officials have been counting down its top 10 stories of the year since Dec. 22.
"Many great projects, programs and events occur in Long Beach daily," Mayor Bob Foster said in a press release. "Through community partnerships and our many followers on Facebook and Twitter, the City has been able to share these Long Beach stories and keep residents informed about our wonderful city."
The previously announced top stories (from No. 10 to No. 2) have been:
Moving "Levitated Mass," a 340-ton, 21 1/2-foot-tall rock through the city. The art piece was transported from Riverside to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art;
Long Beach winning two, separate national bicycling awards from the League of American Bicyclists and Bicycling Magazine;
A study by Cal State Long Beach finding that the Long Beach Airport generates $11 billion in regional economic impact;
The receipt by the Pacific Gateway Workforce Investment Network, the region's workforce development agency, of a $2.8 million grant awarded by the federal government to create 363 new jobs at area hospitals;
Completing revitalization work on the Promenade in downtown Long Beach;
Long Beach being recognized as a Top 10 Digital City and Top 10 Social Media City;
Heal the Bay-graded city beaches "improved dramatically" in its annual Beach Report Card, with the most significant changes coming at Colorado Lagoon, which reopened after an $8.5 million improvement project;
The city's implementation of the Long Beach Common Operating Picture, or LBCOP. The system uses real-time camera feeds around the city to give more emergency information to public safety officials;
Expanded business activity in the city, in part attributed to the consolidation of business checks and inspection services that led to reduced permit fees and increases in customer service ratings.
Long Beach's Facebook page, www.facebook.com/CityofLongBeachCA, has more than 11,400 fans.
The city uses the page to post city news, issue traffic and public safety alerts, and post photos and videos.
Community member interaction has increased 200 percent in the past year, according to officials.

Family coaching is very popular. More and more parents whose child is being bullied in school or in the neighborhood. Many times, their child has difficulty expressing his or her feelings and will begin to manifest somatic complaints such as stomachaches, headaches, school refusal, and/or acting out in school. Play therapy is one way to address bullying. We provide psychoeducational testing for children with behavior and or learning problems.

I have done same thing on my laptop, and it works.
- Boot up from DVD
- Click install.sh
- When asked where to install, do not select SDA (or any other variant of your primary HD). Your external should show up as SDB. Create partition as full hard drive or only partial, your choice.
- If you want to install GRUB, install it on SDB (not SDB1 or HD0 or HDA or any variant of your primary HD)
- After installation is complete, reboot, go to your BIOS and change device boot priority. I have CD/DVD as 1st, USB as 2nd, internal HD as 3rd.
- Enjoy.
Now, it you want to boot from external hd (BT4 that you just installed), plug in your HD and reboot. It should boot into BT. If you want to go into Windows, power off (if you are in BT), remove your external HD and boot-up normally straight into Windows.
I used 2.5 IDE HD, 250GB, and it works just fine. I even mounted on the back of my laptop dislay. That way it's always secure in it's place, and not moving around on my desk. One draw-back with my set-up, is that 2.5 inch HD is using 2 of my USB ports, and it only leaves me with one available USB port (I got 3 total).

ASHLEY HALLAffiliation:
Principal Trumpet: Cincinnati Chamber Orchestra
Third Trumpet: Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra
Trumpet Professor: University of Dayton
Arts Educator: Art and Music: Making the Connection
Artist's BiographyTrumpeter Ashley Hall has appeared in concert halls, recital venues and churches around the world. From Boston's Symphony Hall, the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., the Opera House in Sydney, Australia, to St. John's College Cathedral in Cambridge, England, she dazzles audiences with her virtuosic technique and expressive tone. An active artist in the solo and orchestral realms, she holds the position of principal trumpet with the Cincinnati Chamber Orchestra and third trumpet with the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra.
At the age of 13, she made her solo debut with the Capitol Winds Ensemble from Washington, D.C. at the National Trumpet Competition, playing the third movement of Johann Hummel's Concerto for Trumpet. She also has been a featured soloist with the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra, Montgomery Symphony Orchestra, Roanoke Symphony Orchestra, Wintergreen Festival Orchestra, Chamber Orchestra of Southwest Virginia and three-time soloist with the Washington Chamber Symphony at the Kennedy Center. In 2001, she took first place in the College division of the National Trumpet Competition, and first place in the International Trumpet Guild's Solo Competition. In the summer of 2002, she performed Alexander Arutunian's Concerto for Trumpet and Orchestra with the Music Academy of the West's Festival Orchestra, after winning that festival's concerto competition. She has been a participant at the Music Academy of the West, Tanglewood Institute of Music, Eastern Music Festival, Lake Placid Institute, and Brevard Music Center. She has served as the second trumpeter for the Wintergreen Music Festival.
In January 2005, Ashley premiered "An American Concerto", a work written for her by Dayton composer Steven Winteregg. This trumpet concerto was commissioned by and performed with the Northwest Florida Chamber Orchestra. In April 2005, she was the featured soloist with the Lima Symphony Orchestra, performing the Hummel Concerto and J.B.Arban's 'Carnival of Venice'.
In the summer of 2006, Ashley appeared with the professional all-women's brass ensemble, Monarch Brass, at the International Trumpet Guild Conference in Glassboro, NJ. She was a featured artist at the International Women's Brass Conference in Normal, IL, giving a solo recital and performing again with the Monarch Brass. In July, she traveled to Germany to perform with EUROBRASS and to record an album entitled, "Give Thanks to the Lord".
In the fall of 2007, Ashley released her debut album entitled, "Behold Him", a collection of hymns for solo trumpet. As an active trumpet worship artist she has given trumpet ministry recitals in the United States, Mexico City and China.
In the summer of 2010, Ashley was a featured soloist at the International Trumpet Guild Conference in Sydney, Australia and made two guest appearances at the Opera House with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. She also traveled and performed as soloist with EUROBRASS throughout Germany and recorded another album with the group entitled,
"Worthy is the Lord".
Ms. Hall's passion for making music is paralleled by a dedication and commitment to teaching and arts advocacy. As a MUSE Machine artist, she performs extensively in public schools with her husband, trumpeter, Nathan Tighe. Their program "Art and Music: Making the Connection" teaches students about important events in history and their influence on the development of art and music over the centuries.
Ms. Hall is on faculty at the University of Dayton as part-time trumpet instructor and also serves as a member of the faculty brass quintet. In addition, she maintains a private teaching studio in her Cincinnati home.
Ms. Hall received her bachelor's degree in trumpet performance from the University of Cincinnati-College Conservatory of Music in 2003,where she was a student of Alan Siebert, Marie Speziale, and Philip Collins. She received her artist diploma degree from the Longy School of Music in 2007, where she was a student of Steven Emery. At Longy, she was awarded the Victor Rosenbaum Award for Excellence in Performance and Leadership.

Victoria Beckham Spring 2012
For Victoria Beckham, the sportswear trend that has swept the New York season thus far was also an important element in her focused collection. But Beckham grafted her own luxe couture sensibility onto that, crafting a boule shaped anorak out of thickly woven Mikado or translucent gazar silks, for instance, or simulating the perforated, aerating sports mesh that we have been seeing everywhere in chic devore velvet.
Beckham's crisply tailored coats and little shift dresses (some slyly spliced with sheer net slithers) in thick bonded jersey had a Mod flavor to them – emphasized by Stephen Jones' chic little kepi hats, and tailored leather purses (her latest design hangs from a fine chain; you can "play with it like jewelry," Beckham explains). She kept that sixties vibe but added movement via pleats set at the hipline like high fashion tennis frocks.
Even those signature hourglass dresses that seem poured over the body sublime had a sportswear touch; they were suspended from straps that looked like rock climbers' safety harnesses.

I get the following error message continuously - System Update never starts up, even after clicking "OK"; the only thing that happens is this error message goes away for about ten or fifteen seconds and then comes back. The only way I can get rid of it is to go into Task Manager and kill both of the relevant processes.
I removed and re-installed System Update 3.14 (the latest "driver"), and then removed that and installed an earlier version - no difference. I also repair-installed Microsoft NetFrame 2.0 ( or something like that), since System Update 3.14 apparently needs that - it didn't help .
I hadn't run System Update in - god knows how long, so, wanting to make a fresh back-up after running CCleaner and doing AVG Anti-virus and Ad-Aware scans, I decided it was about time to see what the latest Lenovo updates were first; now this.
Any ideas on how to get System Update to function properly on my machine (R40 2897-54U running Windows XP)?
Note from Moderator: Image(s) >50k converted to link(s).
just a hint:
Go to following location on your machine:
%ProgramFiles%\Lenovo\System Update\logs
Check the logs and that may tell you, what is going on. You can also post this to this forum, if you want me to check .
08-26-2009 02:20 AM - edited 08-28-2009 09:25 AM
There're quite a few files in there:
Any one that you want to see in particular?
Note from Moderator: Image(s) >50k converted to link(s).
let's make it this way:
go to registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Lenovo\System Update\Preferences\UserSettings\General]
Change the value of "DebugEnable" to YES.
Close registry and start TVS. Let it do his things and then force TVSU to shut down via Task Manager.
This will force the system to create a extendend log.<see the last modified file>
Then check your private mail
08-26-2009 02:54 AM - edited 08-28-2009 09:25 AM
OK - I've followed your advice. I'm not seeing anything recent in my private e-mail - what am I looking for?
have send you a link, where you can upload all the log files.

I finally saw the link in my Lenovo message account; I thought you were sending me a message to my outside web-mail account (where Lenovo copies responses to my posts).
I can connect to Lenovo's FTP server but it won't accept me until I supply a password - are you going to supply me one?
I've got to get some sleep now - I'll look for your response later in the day. Thank you for your help so far.

I believe I sent you via FTP the log files you requested - did you have a chance to review them yet?
the firs thing, that I saw is, that you are using a realy old version of TVSU. You are using 3.13.0009.
Go to following link and download the latest version of TVSU: <3.14.0024>
And then make following steps:
- delete the old version of TVSU using Control Panel
- once it's removed, go to %programfiles%\Lenovo
- if you see the folder "System update", then delete it manually
* reboot the machine
- after it starts back to OS install the downloaded version of TVSU
- once it's installed, check whether it's working
From your logs it's obvious, that this aplication could not be started in your environment/OS. TVSU could not be started, but unfortunately the reason is not realy shown.
Test the above and let me know about the results
I followed your instructions. System Update still won't load - it returns the same error message and won't get out of this infinite loop until you go into Task Manager and manually shut down the three relevant processes, just like yesterday.

Rap tour bus standoff in OKC
(UPDATE 7:48 AM PT) - Cops have finally obtained a warrant and entered the bus ... and immediately placed several passengers under arrest for "interfering with police process" for locking the cops out of the bus, reports TMZ.
TMZ asked cops if 2 Chainz was one of the people on the bus - to which they were told cops are not sure, but the bus is "connected" to the rapper.
(TMZ) - A tour bus connected to Lil Wayne's concert tour has been pulled over in Oklahoma and cops suspect there are drugs on board ... but the passengers have locked themselves inside and REFUSE to cooperate, TMZ has learned.
Law enforcement tells TMZ that the bus was pulled over around midnight because its taillights were out. And when officers approached the vehicle, they noticed signs of drug use and wanted to board the bus.
But, according to TMZ, the driver told cops he wasn't letting 'em on ... and locked the door ... and told cops they had to get a search warrant before he would unlock the doors.
It's unclear who's on the bus - but TMZ reports Wayne and T.I. (also on the tour) had left the city on private jets before the incident. 2 Chainz is also part of the tour - but no word if he's on the bus.
TMZ reports that cops eventually towed the bus (with the people inside) to a nearby police training facility ... while they wait for a judge to issue a warrant.
Stay tuned ...

Tea Party Unloads on 'Complete Imbecile' Rick Perry
Get the latest from Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh on Right of Center Radio
When Texas Gov. Rick Perry was indicted last month on two felony charges stemming from how he dealt with a misbehaving Democratic state official, the image of the stuttering 2012 Republican primary challenger was replaced with that of a hero-cowboy in the eyes of many conservatives. Perry was under attack from the left wing, and his response was not to apologize but to walk through a hail of blue-hued bullets and emerge laughing, without a mark on him. But some conservative true believers have begun to notice something rather suspicious: The company Perry keeps seems more suited to a mainstream Republican—or a right-of-center Democrat—than to their hero-cowboy.
Perry is associated with three operatives who have concerned some members of the die-hard right wing: lobbyist Henry Barbour, former Bill Clinton aide Mark Fabiani, and McCain-Palin campaign chief and MSNBC pundit Steve Schmidt.
Well, maybe "concerned" is putting it somewhat mildly.
"The only two options are that Rick Perry is a complete imbecile and he has no idea who these people are and what they've done and how the conservative base—who votes in primaries—feels about these guys, or he's doing it on purpose because that's the kind of message he wants to send," said Keli Carender, the national grassroots coordinator for the Tea Party Patriots. Either way, she assured: "It will be an issue. We will make it an issue."
Barbour is already working on Perry's 2016 bid for the White House. But conservatives know him best for his role running the political action committee Mississippi Conservatives, founded by his uncle, Haley Barbour, the former governor of Mississippi. In this year's Magnolia State primary fight—and "fight" is an understatement—between U.S. Sen. Thad Cochran and state Sen. Chris McDaniel, Barbour reportedly played an influential and controversial role.According to National Review, his PAC funneled money to produce ads against McDaniel that alleged he would set back "race relationships between blacks and whites and other ethnic groups." The ads, which seemed intended to drive African-American voters to the polls, enraged McDaniel's Tea Party supporters.
As reported by Breitbart News, some conservatives loathe Barbour so much that they tried to get the Republican National Committee to censure him, to no avail.
"Republicans should not hire Henry Barbour unless and until he apologizes for the tactics he helped fund in Mississippi...I don't think [keeping Barbour around] necessarily means Perry is endorsing what he did, but it means he's certainly not properly condemning it or taking it seriously enough," Quin Hillyer, a conservative writer and activist, told The Daily Beast. "What he helped finance was so far beyond the pale that he should be blackballed by conservatives, and if Perry wants to be considered a conservative, he should no longer employ Henry Barbour."
Rick Shaftan, a Republican consultant who involved himself in the Mississippi primary, offered a somewhat different view of Barbour to The Daily Beast: "I don't like what he did in Mississippi, but you know what? It shows he's a ruthless, cutthroat operative, and there's something to be said for that on the Republican side. Because we don't have enough of them. If the force of evil can be brought to do good, then that's a good thing."

Forecast provided by the National Weather Service.
Five homeless people were rescued from the Santa Ana River by a San Bernardino County sheriff's helicopter and a swift water rescue team Thursday night in Colton after becoming trapped by torrential floodwaters, fire officials said.
The event culminated a fatiguing day for firefighters across the Inland Empire who responded to dozens of calls of weather-related traffic collisions and flooding spurred by Thursday's downpour.
Snow was falling in the San Bernardino Mountains on Thursday night, making for slippery roadways, the San Bernardino County Fire Department reported. Motorists were advised to carry snow chains, blankets and water them.
Firefighters from the Colton, San Bernardino County and Riverside fire departments were called to the Santa Ana riverbed, near the intersection of Riverside Avenue and Key Street, at 6:55 p.m. Thursday after a passerby reported that there appeared to be a man trapped in the river bottom east of Riverside Avenue, Colton fire Capt. David Santos said.
Once on scene, firefighters spotted a man clinging to a tree and four other people who sought higher ground on a small island down river just south of him, Santos said.
An incident commander requested a helicopter rescue for the man in the tree and a swift-water rescue for the four other individuals, Santos said.
The Sheriff's Department deployed its helicopter. It hovered over the man while a deputy was lowered by rope, close enough to pull the man to safety, Santos said.
Once the water receded, the Riverside Fire Department's swift-water rescue team moved in and escorted the other four people to safety by foot, Santos said.
The man pulled from the tree was taken to Arrowhead Regional Medical Center and treated for mild hypothermia, Santos said. He said the other four individuals were not hospitalized.
The scene was cleared about 10 p.m., Santos said.
At roughly 2:30 p.m., firefighters from Riverside County and the Redlands Fire Department responded to a report of two vehicles that became stuck in about 3 feet of floodwater and mud in San Timoteo Canyon, prompting a swift-water rescue.
A Moreno Valley man was traveling west on San Timoteo Canyon Road, at Live Oak Canyon Road, following behind the other vehicle, when the motorists were hit by a flash flood, Redlands fire Capt. Mike Howard said.
"There's a natural waterway that flows through there, and that broke and (the water) came through," Howard said.
Historically, San Timoteo Canyon is prone to flash flooding.
The flooding, mudslides and debris flows that hit the canyon prompted authorities to close parts of San Timoteo Canyon Road from Live Oak Canyon Road to Barton Road. Sandbags and sand were made available to Redlands residents at the City Yards, located on Park Avenue between Kansas and Tennessee streets, Redlands spokesman Carl Baker said.
Redlands Market Night, held every Thursday, was canceled due to the inclement weather.
In San Bernardino, firefighters and road crews were kept busy throughout the day responding to calls for service on weather-related incidents, fire Battalion Chief Nathan Cooke said.
"We probably had a dozen calls for service related to minor flooding of homes and businesses throughout the city, and we experienced moderate flooding on numerous intersections, all of which have been cleared by our road crews," Cooke said.
In addition, San Bernardino firefighters assisted the California Highway Patrol with weather-related traffic collisions on the local freeways, Cooke said.
Rain-slick roads contributed to a jump in crashes on Southern California roadways as the storm moved through the area, dropping more than a quarter-inch of rain in many Inland Empire cities.
"Motorists need to remember that slick roads make stopping more difficult and we would like to ask them to take a little extra time to get to their destination safely," San Bernardino Fire Chief George Avery said.
The National Weather Service has predicted thunderstorms continuing tonight through Saturday for the Inland Empire, with the heaviest rain being predicted for Thursday. Snow levels were expected to drop to 5,000 feet Friday night.
A Sig Alert was issued at 5:21 a.m. Thursday when a crash involving about six vehicles occurred on the eastbound 10 Freeway east of Euclid Avenue in Ontario. The freeway was clear at 6:26 a.m., according to California Highway Patrol logs.
Another Sig Alert was issued around 3:30 p.m. when the embankment on the eastbound 10 Freeway at the Mountain View Avenue off-ramp in Loma Linda slid, causing a backup of several miles, according to CHP logs.
Through 5 p.m. Thursday, 3.03 inches of rain was recorded at Panorama Point on Rim of the World Highway in the San Bernardino Mountains. Cal State San Bernardino had 1.93 inches, while Lytle Creek recorded 1.89 and San Timoteo Canyon had 1.14. To the west, San Antonio Heights had 0.67 inches; Upland 0.57, Chino Hills 0.47 and L.A./Ontario International Airport 0.28.
"We would like to also tell motorists to be wary of flooded rural roadways, city streets and intersections," Avery said. "Drivers can never predict how deep or swift the water is moving. It's always safer to take a different, safer route."
Following are inches of rainfall measured between 6:30 a.m. Wednesday and 6:30 a.m. Thursday, according to the National Weather Service.

Cucamonga Canyon - .35
Ontario - .28

Ben-Zion Netanyahu dies at 102; father of Israeli prime minister (LA TIMES) By Batsheva Sobelman 05/01/12)
Source: http://www.latimes.com/news/obituaries/la-me-ben-zion-netanyahu-20120501,0,4097825.story
LOS ANGELES TIMES Articles-Index-Top
An influential figure in the history of Israel and personal secretary to Zionism Revisionist leader Zeev Jabotinsky, Ben-Zion Netanyahu shaped the viewpoints of his son Benjamin Netanyahu.
JERUSALEM Historian Ben-Zion Netanyahu, the father of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the man said to have had the most profound influence on the conservative Israeli leader, died early Monday in his Jerusalem home. He was 102.
The elder Netanyahu served as the personal secretary of Zionism´s prominent Revisionist leader, Zeev Jabotinsky, in the United States during World War II, lobbying for the creation of a Jewish state. He also pursued his academic work, specializing in medieval Spanish Jewry and the roots of the Spanish Inquisition.
Many attribute the prime minister´s deep convictions and interest in history to his father´s unwavering hawkish beliefs; the Revisionist movement differed sharply from the socialist Zionists of the early 20th century and did not believe in partitioning what was Palestine during the British mandate into separate Jewish and Arab states. "Benjamin Netanyahu was raised on uncompromising Zionism," Knesset Speaker Reuven Rivlin told Israel Radio.
Netanyahu´s father also believed that Jews have long faced racial discrimination and that efforts to reach compromises would prove futile. Benjamin "Netanyahu has been guided by his father´s message, which could be summarized as ´the world is against us,´ " wrote columnist Akiva Eldar in the left-leaning daily Haaretz.
Born Ben-Zion Milikovsky in Warsaw in 1910, the elder Netanyahu emigrated in 1920 to Palestine with his parents. They changed the family name after the move. Netanyahu and his wife, Tzila, were married in 1944, and they had three sons.
The Netanyahus moved back and forth between the United States and the fledgling state of Israel after it was founded. Israeli academia, however, did not embrace the scholar, whose right-wing beliefs went against the grain of the prevalent socialist thinking, and he continued his scholarship with various American universities, finally becoming a professor emeritus at Cornell University.
Their final return to Israel came in 1976, after their eldest son, Yoni, was killed during an Israeli commando operation to rescue hostages on an Air France flight that was hijacked to Entebbe, Uganda. Benjamin Netanyahu delivered the news to his parents.
"The longest, most difficult journey of my life," he later said. "Since then, our family changed drastically."
As the nation´s leadership gathered in Jerusalem on Monday afternoon for Ben-Zion´s funeral, the prime minister recalled his father´s deep commitment to Judaism, his historical perspective and his efforts to hasten the establishment of a Jewish state. "You always taught us commitment to the nation and state, but no less than that was your commitment to us," Netanyahu said of his close family.
Condolences came from across the political spectrum, and opposition parties withdrew no-confidence motions and bills to dissolve parliament and move to early elections out of respect for the week of mourning.
"A great historian and a great Jew," President Shimon Peres said at a public event earlier in the day, asking the audience to observe a minute of silence in his memory.
Netanyahu was also cited as a man of unwavering principles.
"Benjamin Netanyahu was raised on this fear of the enemy and was certainly influenced by it, as on the issue of Iran; he has the sense of mission," Gil Samsonov author of "The Likud Princes," told Israel Radio.
Netanyahu is survived by his remaining sons, the prime minister and Ido Netanyahu, a physician, author and playwright.

When we demonstrate covering cakes with fondant, the cakes are crumb coated with buttercream icing. This layer of icing helps the fondant adhere to the cake and smoothes out bumps in the cake surface. Some people coat their cake in an apricot glaze in place of the buttercream. You melt apricot preserves, strain it, then brush over the surface of the cake. Allow the surface to get tacky before placing the fondant on the cake.
