Proprietary Applications
Proprietary software helps you maximize your Internet experience, but is not open source. The software available includes Multimedia Codecs, Java Runtime Environment, and plug-ins for Firefox and Konqueror.
Restricted Extras
The Kubuntu Restricted Extras will install Adobe Flash Player, Java Runtime Environment (JRE) (sun-java-jre) with Firefox and Konqueror plug-ins (icedtea), a set of Microsoft Fonts (msttcorefonts), multimedia codecs (w32codecs or w64codecs), mp3-compatible encoding (lame), FFMpeg, extra multimedia codecs for K3b, the package for DVD decoding (libdvdread3, but see below for info on libdvdcss2), and the unrar archiver. This is a single command approach.
sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras
You could also use Ubuntu Restricted Extras, but it installs plugins for the Gstreamer platform (the default in Gnome) and does not install the K3b codecs, so it is not recommended.
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
Eye Candy Applications
Eye Candy Applications refer to the decoration of the Interface. These can be added on icons, themes, wallpapers etc. As well as the 3D effects that are available with the use Compiz Fusion.
Compiz Fusion
sudo apt-get install compiz-core compiz-fusion-plugins-extra compiz-fusion-plugins-main compiz-plugins libcompizconfig0 compiz-kde compiz-plugins compizconfig-backend-kconfig compizconfig-settings-manager kicker-compiz kicker-taskbar-compiz
Before starting Compiz you will have to make some changes so that the Desktop Preview & Pager and the Taskbar behave correctly. Open Kcontrol(alt+f2 then type in 'kcontrol') and navigate to Desktop >> Multiple Desktops and change the number of desktops to 1. Close Kcontrol and remove the Desktop Preview & Pager and the Taskbar from the panel. Right click on the panel and select 'Add Applet To Panel'. Add 'Desktop Preview & Pager - Compiz' and 'Taksbar - Compiz' to replace the old ones.
Note: in KDE 4.1 there is a Plasma that replaces Kicker so there is no way how you can install those applets. In this case the installation command will be as follows:
sudo apt-get install compiz-core compiz-fusion-plugins-extra compiz-fusion-plugins-main compiz-plugins libcompizconfig0 compiz-kde compiz-plugins compizconfig-backend-kconfig compizconfig-settings-manager
Note: if the Compiz Settings Manager you do not see any icons then you might want to install librsvg2-common which fixes this bug
sudo apt-get install librsvg2-common
To start Compiz
compiz --replace
Fusion Icon
Fusion Icon is a tray icon that allows you to easily switch between window managers, window decorators, and quick access to the settings manager

Kicker-Kickoff (Suse Style K Menu)
The original Kicker-Kickoff program was first made available at kde-apps.org by Ruffinius. Currently he supports KickerQT but due to dependency problems many cannot install this more updated version on any Kubuntu release. Kicker-Kickoff has since been removed from kde-apps.org. Fortunately Technoshaun (The contributor of this piece) makes Kicker-Kickoff 1 a part of all his KDE theme packages at kde-look.org. If you download any of the KDE theme packages he has made available and unpack the tarball inside is a folder labled kicker_kickoff_1 with kicker-kickoff_1_i386.deb inside. Here is a cut from his readme file on istalling Kicker Kickoff:
Kicker_Kickoff_1 is the original Kubuntu kickoff package from Ruffinius. It is included for those who cannot install KickerQT due to conflicts or other issues. Though not as pretty it does work. It will also work on Mepis (except Mepis 7.0) and other Debian/Kubuntu based distros running KDE 3.5.5 through 3.5.8, provided dependencies can be met.
In the "kicker_Kickoff_1" folder use the command "sudo dpkg -i kicker-kickoff_1_i386.deb" (or other appropriate install method) then use the command "sudo dcop kicker kicker restart" to start the kickoff menu interface.

FFMPEG video / audio conversion
FFMPEG is the swiss-army knife of video and audio format conversion. It succeeds when no other program can. It is free and open source. If it not yet installed on your system as part of another package (it is used by many video/audio editors), then install it:
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
To convert many different formats, read the FFMPEG documentation.
Example: To convert a saved Flash video (.flv) to an Mpeg-2 format playable on a DVD, convert:
ffmpeg -i samplevideo.flv -target ntsc-dvd samplevideo.mpg
Then use K3b to write the mpg file to a New DVD Data Project.
- For PAL use -target pal-dvd. For widescreen, add the parameter -aspect 16:9 (but see these tips). For other conversion tips, see this forum. (Note: Most Flash video has very low resolution, with a screen size of 360x240, for example. You may see a slight diminishment in resolution if you wish to convert it to 720x480, which is the NTSC standard size. You can keep the original resolution by omitting the -target ntsc-dvd parameter.)
WinFF is a free, GPL-licensed open source GUI frontend for FFMPEG. See the website for installation instructions.

VLC is a cross-platform multimedia player that supports many formats without need for additional codecs. It can not only receive video streams (also see here to convert it to mp4), but can act as a server for video streams, as well. It is one of the only players that can view and backup almost any DVD format, no matter which copy protection is used. See these tips for using VLC to backup/rip encrypted DVDs.
sudo apt-get install vlc
However if you want to install the latest version of this player you might want to do the following actions.
At first it is recommended to remove the previously installed version if any:
sudo apt-get remove vlc vlc-nox sudo apt-get autoremove
Then add repositories and install debs
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/c-korn/ubuntu hardy main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/c-korn/ubuntu hardy main sudo apt-get reload sudo apt-get install vlc vlc-nox

Linux MCE (Media Center Edition)
LinuxMCE is an integrated home theater/home security/home automation/telephone PBX/intercom system for your home. It incorporates MythTV, Pluto home automation, Motion security surveillance, Asterisk PBX, VDR video disk recorder, and other home automation/security/theater packages in an integrated platform. It is available in 32 and 64 bit versions. LinuxMCE can run either as a standalone Home Theater PC or can co-ordinate a fully networked home, using the networking capabilities that are intrinsically part of the Kubuntu Linux OS. For more info see the LinuxMCE website.
The most recent version runs on Kubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy). A version for Kubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid) is due out soon. LinuxMCE can be installed at the same time as the Kubuntu OS (on a new PC with an nVidia graphics card), with a single DVD installation. Alternatively, Kubuntu can be installed first and LinuxMCE then installed from a 2 CD installation.
PVR (Personal Video Recorder)
MythTV is a PVR (personal video recorder) for retrieving, recording, and playing broadcast and Internet TV and other multimedia content.

Zoneminder surveillance system
Zoneminder manages surveillance cameras and stores images on the hard disk. Images can be viewed using a (LAMP) server remotely. X10 devices can be triggered using built-in perl scripts. For more info see the Zoneminder website.
Installing the latest Zoneminder version
- Minor tweaks are required to install the latest version of Zoneminder on Hardy. See the Zoneminder forums.
Using the repository package
- There is a Zoneminder package for Hardy (that was the package from Gutsy). You should be able to install the package from Synaptic Package Manager.
- Detailed instructions that appeared to work for Gutsy are at the Zoneminder Installation Wiki.
Original Feisty installation instructions
- However, if that does not work, try the original instructions that worked for Feisty:
- You must have the LAMP server installed. In addition, you will need additional modules:
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg libarchive-tar-perl libarchive-zip-perl libdate-manip-perl libdevice-serialport-perl sudo apt-get install libjpeg62 libmime-perl libstdc++6 libunwind7 libwww-perl zlib1g
- Download the .deb package from the package manager's website:
- Install using the Debian package manager. (No other method seems to work.)
dpkg -i zoneminder_1.22.3-8_i386.deb
- (Note: If some dependencies are still unsatisfied, make sure you have these packages installed):
sudo apt-get install libc6 libc6.1 libgcc1 libgcc4 libstdc++6
- (These should already be installed as part of the LAMP installation):
sudo apt-get install apache2-mpm-prefork libapache2-mod-php5 libmysqlclient15off mysql-client mysql-server php5 php5-mysql
Setup Zoneminder configuration
If your installation is successful, you will now need to set up the configuration files and databases for Zoneminder.
- Copy the configuration file and restart the Apache2 server.
sudo ln -s /etc/zm/apache.conf /etc/apache2/conf.d/zoneminder.conf sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload
- View Zoneminder from your web browser:
- Set up a MySQL database for Zoneminder
- If this is the first time you have used MySQL, the default global MySQL superuser root will not have a password. You should set one now. Instructions for setting mySQL initial privileges are here.
- In short:
mysql -u root mysql> UPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD('your_new_password') WHERE User='root'; mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES; mysql> quit
- In addition, you can set up an additional global MySQL user (such as mysql_user, for example) by following the instructions here. That way you can reserve root login for emergencies.
- In short:
mysql -u root mysql> CREATE USER 'mysql_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'mysql_user_passwd'; mysql> quit
Now you must create a MySQL database for use by Zoneminder. This is an administrative MySQL command, so you must use one of your global MySQL users (either root or mysql_user, as created in the example above). You can name your Zoneminder database anything you want, instead of zmdatabase.
mysqladmin -u root -p CREATE zmdatabase
mysqladmin -u mysql_user -p CREATE zmdatabase
Create users for the Zoneminder database. As always, I create a root user for emergency use. I use the same password for root as I do elsewhere on my system. Then I also create a user named zm_user (but you could also creat a user named mysql_user, to keep everything consistent). [I use a unique user here because this is a home security system, after all, and I don't want it breached.] These users are specific to this database; they can be the same users as used elsewhere in the system or can be unique users.
mysql> GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, INDEX, ALTER, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES, LOCK TABLES ON zmdatabase.* TO 'zm_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password'; mysql> GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, INDEX, ALTER, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES, LOCK TABLES ON zmdatabase.* TO 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password'; (I used my usual root password here). mysql> quit mysqladmin reload
Note: mysql commands (i.e. any entered at the mysql> prompt) must end with a semicolon. If you forget the semicolon, nothing will happen.
Myth Zoneminder
MythZoneminder allows you to view your security cameras through Myth TV, essentially. It is a plugin that interfaces the two packages Zoneminder (which must be working on your system) and Myth TV (which must also be working.) See the installation instructions.
It can be found in Adept as the mythzoneminder package.
sudo apt-get install mythzoneminder

dd (disk backup)
dd is a *nix command that enables the copying of files or an entire disk using a single command. Parameters must be precisely specified to avoid risk of accidentally erasing data. See these brief instructions or these instructions for detailed options. You cannot copy a hard drive that contains the operating system you are currently running. Instead, boot into a LiveCD and run the dd command that way. An example command to copy Hard drive X to Hard drive Y is:
dd if=/dev/hdx of=/dev/hdy
- ddrescue is a variation of the dd command that allows working with potentially corrupted datasets, partitions, or hard drives.
Run Kubuntu LiveCD from a USB pendrive
The Kubuntu LiveCD can be installed on and run from a USB pendrive. Settings can be "persistently" saved (but the LiveCD kernel modules can not be upgraded). Programs can be installed and run, however, and files saved to the USB drive. (The installed programs will remain installed). See these Pendrivelinux instructions. A Kubuntu Live CD is needed to do the install.
The USB "LiveCD" can also be used to install Kubuntu on computers (including netbooks) that do not have CD-ROM/DVD drives.
USB pendrives to be used to run Kubuntu should have a minimum of 2 Gb (preferably 4 Gb). If you wish to install a fast, fully functional Linux system on a pendrive that has less memory than that, use PuppyLinux.
Create a boot CD to allow booting from the USB drive
Many computers do not allow booting from a USB drive (but they do allow booting from the CD-ROM). You can create a CD-ROM using these Pendrivelinux instructions and set your BIOS to boot from this CD-ROM. When you boot from this CD-ROM, it will use the bootup files on the Kubuntu USB drive you previously created (in the step above).

The United States is a patchwork quilt of cultures formed by successive waves of immigration. Latino culture, and its origins in the history of Latino immigration, are expressed in art through narrative scenes of family life and childhood memories. The challenges of family upheaval and assimilation have also been confronted in abstract works.
This lesson encourages students to explore their own origins and, by working collaboratively, understand how their stories relate to those of their classmates. Students will interview family members to learn more about their own pieces of the puzzle and then contribute a patch about their families to a class quilt.

"Quit dragging your fishing pole," I barked, and swatted my seven year old little brother across his cotton top. "What are you moping about anyhow?"
Obviously something was eating little Heath. He usually gabbed the whole way to the fishing hole. When he finally looked up from between those slumped shoulders his lips were curled like he'd ate our tube of crickets. I thought he was going to spew. "You promise you won't tell momma?" he gasped, fighting back tears.

Engineers involved in national study on aging bridges
Researchers at the University of South Carolina's College of Engineering and Computing are part of a national team that will develop technologies to assess the structural health of the nation's aging bridges.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) awarded the $14 million project through its Technology Innovation Program (TIP) that links the Physical Acoustics Corp. (PAC) of Princeton, N.J., the University of Miami, Virginia Tech and the University of South Carolina, with $4 million for its part of the study.
"The technology being developed involves combining data from a host of electronic sensors – including embeddable low-profile piezo-electric sensors – and new methods that analyze and rapidly assess data on bridge corrosion, cracking due to fatigue and other defects, even before they're visible to the eye," said Dr. Paul Ziehl, an associate professor in the department of civil and environmental engineering and the lead investigator for Carolina's research.
"This study addresses a critical need in the nation's infrastructure," he said. "Many of our bridges were built 50 years ago, and many of these structures have a life expectancy of about 50 years. This project focuses on steel and concrete bridges. What we learn will help us to more quickly determine the health of a bridge and the length of time that it can be used."

Glossolalia occurred among adherents of various ancient religions, including some of the ancient Greek religionsand in various primitive religions
. There are references to ecstatic speech in the Hebrew Bible (1 Samuel 10:5–13, 19:18–24; 2 Samuel 6:13–17; 1 Kings 20:35–37), and in Christianity it has occurred periodically since the early years of the church. Glossolalia According to the New Testament, glossolalia first occurred among the followers of Jesus at Pentecost (Acts 2) , when "they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance" (Acts of the Apostles 2:4). The apostle Apostle Paul referred to it as a spiritual gift (1 Corinthians 12–14) and claimed that he possessed exceptional ability in that gift (1 Corinthians 14:18). The account in Acts (4:31, 8:14–17, 10:44–48, 11:15–17, 19:1–7) indicates that in the beginning of the Christian church the phenomenon reappeared wherever conversion and commitment to Christianity occurred. Paul urged restraint in the practice, however, since such a spectacular spiritual gift could be abused. Edification, as opposed to personal satisfaction, was set as the test of acceptable glossolalia. The greatest emphasis upon the gift in the early church was made by followers of the 2nd-century prophet Montanus. His excommunication about 177 and the later decline of the sect probably contributed to a climate of opinion unfavourable to speaking in tongues, and the practice declined.
During later church history, glossolalia occurred in various groups. In modern times, it occurred , most notably during various Protestant revivals in the United States in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. These revivals resulted in the establishment of many Pentecostal churches , which in the late 20th century had more than 8,000,000 members. During the 20th century speaking in tongues also occurred occasionally in some of the older Christian churches, including the Roman Catholic, Anglican, and Lutheran churches.In addition to the religious interpretations of glossolalia as a supernatural occurrence, various psychological interpretations have attempted to explain it as a natural occurrence, most commonly a hypnotic phenomenon resulting from religious excitementU.S.; subsequent missionary activity spread Pentecostalism worldwide by the early 21st century. In modern times, speaking in tongues was an occasional occurrence in Roman Catholicism, Anglicanism, Lutheranism, and other more-established Christian denominations. It was also present in many non-Christian traditions.

An L.A. County Sheriff's Department spokesperson tells the "L.A. Times" the Twist - a.k.a. Christopher Moore - was allegedly speeding in the Fisker Karma registered to Bieber before he was pulled over near the gated community where the pop star lives.
The spokesperson said Moore was going more than 70 miles per hour in a 45 mile an hour zone and ran a red light. He was arrested for driving under the influence of marijuana.

Have you ever wondered how God feels about you? Are you conflicted with guilt or worn out from trying to do enough to earn his love? If so, He Loves Me! will show you just how much this Father already loves you, and how you can revel in his love every day of your life. This book will free you from the bondage of religious obligation to live shamelessly as his child in the world.

As the director of Lifestream Ministries, Wayne Jacobsen travels the world helping people embrace an intimate friendship with God. He was a pastor for twenty years, has written four books on spiritual intimacy and is currently a Contributing Editor to Leadership Journal.From AudioFile:
The author explores how to increase one's confidence in God's love. He compares doubters to children "plucking daisy petals," who believe that their suffering means that God doesn't love them. With subtle humor, Jacobsen says to "toss that daisy aside." Using seamless narratives and a rich vocal presentation, he points the way to an intimate, vibrant relationship with Christ that begins at the cross with free will and choice. His powerful narration contrasts guilt with the intimacy and affection freely offered by God. Deep faith, he says, recognizes the eternal choices of heaven or hell. Comparing life to Monopoly, he admonishes listeners to choose wisely and to use their "Get Out of Hell Free" card. G.D.W. © AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine

If they make the move to Ubuntu, it is likely to be for some reason other than stability or drivers. The kernel you build controls the drivers available to you. Also, the only time Linux stability changes is dependent on a) what version software you build (and its development state - alpha, beta, or production quality code), b) What you build with (there are some broken GCC builds out there), c) how you optimize the code while building (over optimization can cause its own problems)Stability will be increased if BT moves to Ubuntu, as well as driver support (i would think)
Also while they would change the base, the distro will still be very heavily customized. Currently Slackware is used as the base, and has provided a good base for some time.
But it would be interesting to see if/why they would change the base distro.

You mean the Indian Buddhist tantric texts, right? There is no such equation with Candalas in the Hindu texts. Perhaps the Buddhist tantric tradition aimed at lower castes, but not the Hindu tantric tradition which has clear Vedic roots, was not confined to outcastes and in fact could only be practiced by those were not animalistic in disposition. I don't think there is a very strong case for the tantras aiming to convert outcastes. With a few notable exceptions, there is a preponderance of highly educated primarily twice-born practitioners that are the lineage gurus. It's a very complicated system ritually, liturgically and philosophically.

No charges for Muskegon County sheriff
Muskegon County Sheriff Dean Roesler won't face charges for embezzling money from an account set aside for a charity golf event, e-mails reveal.
E-mails obtained by WOOD TV indicate criminal charges won't be filed against Roesler.
"Police say he paid most of the money back in what he said were inadvertent withdrawals that started in 2008 and ended in 2011," the report stated.
Roesler admitted to taking $2,290 from the account to pay for university textbooks for his children and their gasoline. He said he believed the money was coming from his personal bank account.

USC's Josh Shaw named in police report, Steve Sarkisian says investigation in the hands of authorities
Listen to Yahoo! Sports Minute on iHeartRadio
(Yahoo!) USC coach Steve Sarkisian told media Wednesday that the program was in a "holding pattern" while the validity of Josh Shaw's story about jumping from a second-story balcony to save his drowning nephew is handled by campus authorities.
According to Rivals.com site TrojansSports.com, the LAPD confirmed Shaw is named in an investigation regarding a break-in at an apartment building on Saturday night.
L.A. Police spokeswoman Liliana Preciado said two Los Angeles police officers responded to a complaint Saturday evening from a resident at the Orsini Apartments alleging that a female in the neighboring room was screaming for help.
Preciado said the officers arrived at Orsini Building One, located on the west side of North Figueroa Street and the home to many USC students, at around 10:40 p.m. She said LAPD got no response after announcing itself and knocking on the door of the third-story unit where the screams reportedly came from.
Witnesses described the suspect: "They saw a black male with dreadlocks leave the apartment from the balcony," Preciado said the police report reads.
Preciado said the officers then broke the door open and searched inside, but no one was there. A female resident who lives in the unit surfaced in the hallway shortly thereafter. She identified Josh Shaw as her boyfriend and said he matched the description of the man witnesses said jumped off the balcony. The third story is about 20 feet high from the ground.
"The person that lives in that apartment returned and talked about her roommates and her boyfriend, who she identified as Josh Shaw," Preciado said. "The victim's boyfriend had a similar description to the suspect seen leaving the apartment -- male, black, with dreadlocks. She said, That's my boyfriend."
Preciado said nothing had been taken but that a window had been pried open. The investigation is ongoing.
Sarkisian said the vetting of Shaw story had been referred to campus authorities after several phone calls came in refuting Shaw's story that he jumped from a second-story window to save his drowning nephew. Shaw suffered two major ankle sprains in the incident.
"In this day in age of college football and head coaches' responsibilities, I'd be foolish not to push everything up the ladder," Sarkisian said. "I think we learned that a couple years ago with a couple other high profile coaches, so everything I've ever done when things come across my desk is to push them to campus authorities and let them do their due diligence.
"When things come back to me, then I can comment on them. Until then, I don't really have much to say on it."
According to linebacker Hayes Pullard, no one had seen or talked to Shaw since the story surfaced on the USC Ripsit Blog website on Monday.
"Him and Sark had a meeting together and we haven't seen him since that day." Pullard said of Shaw. "We're just leaving it to Coach Sark, he's the head man and that's who we answer to."
On Monday, USC released a heroic story of Shaw, who was on a second floor balcony during a family party, spotting his 7-year-old nephew who couldn't swim struggling in the pool. Shaw, with no regard for personal safety, jumped from the balcony, landed on the concrete below, sprained both ankles and managed to roll into the pool to save the drowning boy.
Shaw's sister and the mother of the 7-year-old boy, Asia Shaw, told USA Today she was not at the family party in question and did not know the specifics of what happened. She did confirm her son could not swim.
"The one who was supposed to be watching him turned away for a second," she told USA Today. "And Josh, who is on the balcony, saw the incident and reacted."
Shaw's injured ankles have him sidelined indefinitely and Sarkisian said there's no other change in Shaw's status. He was named a team captain prior to his heroics.
Sarkisian said he did not know how long the investigation would take, but said that it's not taking away from the team's preparation for Saturday's game against Fresno State.
"We haven't spent much time on it at all quite honestly," Sarkisian said. "We've put in too much work over the last nine months to let an hour or two of social media and Internet reports distract us from being a great football team. If it does, then that's not a great sign for us moving forward. We have to be strong enough to handle adversity whether it's on the football field or off the field and continue to hang together and be together."

NIC Student Health Services clinic, operated by Heritage Health, will provide healthcare that is high quality, cost effective, confidential, and easily accessed. Our goals are to help you maintain your health through education and prevention strategies and to restore your health when necessary by treatment of illness, injury, or stress. Services for students are focused on acute, short term health issues. If you experience chronic health issues we can visit with you to assess what we can provide and then work to refer you to the best community resource to get the most comprehensive care.

NIC Student Counseling Services are an important part of care. While some people only think of physical health issues, we realize that we are complex individuals and there are important emotional and mental health issues that can significantly impact student success. Our licensed counselor provides quality services with a focus on brief, solution focused therapy, (usually 2 to 4 sessions). When the student's issue is beyond the scope of our services, we work with the student to identify appropriate community resources.
We are committed to supporting your success as a North Idaho College student.
