Plain English campaign news articles
On the soapbox
- Details
- Created on Monday, 30 July 2012 13:27
With our press officer, Marie, having no mobile reception while holidaying in Devon, I was left to take up the soap box last week. It was a whirlwind of radio and newspaper interviews with some hefty report readings that brought me headaches and a vivid reminder of why I've spent a lifetime shredding these documents and shouting Scouse curses at the jargon masters.
On Monday I woke up to the news that my cheques would no longer be acceptable. This wasn't because I've spent my entire pension, but because the banks felt it would be easier for them. The box came straight out and my trusty stand-in press officer Steve Jenner came to the rescue so that I could add my voice to the objections.
Of course it isn't about plain English and I'm the first to admit that I'm no financial whizz-kid. This isn't the Campaign trying to be financial experts, but just me having a say as a customer.
Chrissie's comments

It's summer here in the UK, just in case you were wondering! I wanted to spread a little sunshine for those of you looking forward to the school holidays because there's still plenty to smile about, despite the never-ending rain and constant streams of jargon and gobbledygook.
First I hear on a radio programme about an NHS Trust banning the use of endearments and nicknames with elderly patients as it could be demeaning. It reminds me of that 'darling' and sadly now deceased, English comedian, Dick Emery and his comedy sketch where he objects to being called 'Madam' instead of 'Miss'. I'm sure that as an opinionated grandmother in her mid-seventies, I have been called a few things that I might object to, but for many of us older folk, we are just pleased when someone takes time to call us at all.
Today's papers tell us how one in four hospitals are breaking the law with poor care for elderly patients - an NHS Trust is being fined £35,000 for breaching the privacy of patients' details - a top doctor claims 130,000 elderly NHS patients are being killed as part of a Liverpool Care Pathway, a method of looking after terminally ill patients that is used in hospitals across the country. And the so-called experts are worried about respecting my dignity by banning the use of words like 'sweetie', 'dear' or 'darling'.
Food labelling failing healthy eating
- Details
- Created on Wednesday, 04 April 2012 15:34
Plain English Campaign wants to lift the lid on food labelling that can be dangerously confusing. The Campaign feels that regulatory bodies and manufacturers in the UK have lost the plot when it comes to food labelling. Tiny text with figures and words from a science laboratory can drive customers away from the supermarket shelves, instead of increasing sales and helping the customer.
A typical pot of cottage cheese can bombard shoppers with information that can be unclear and unhelpful in making healthy choices. Foodstuff measurements alone come in all forms and combinations - percentages, fractions, kcal, kJ, and g, and don't forget your GDA and RDA.
As well as the numbers and calculations, the shopper has to deal with scientific terms and industry abbreviations that could add to your weight, as well as your frustration.
Warning: Nuts repeat on you
- Details
- Created on Wednesday, 04 April 2012 15:00
An action team set up by Plain English Campaign is keeping watch over the poor communications in food labelling this year. The nuttiest find so far is on a chocolate selection card.
Chocolate-lovers can read no fewer than eight mentions about the nut content in the chocolate menu selection alone. Further details on the back of the Cadbury Milk Tray box go on to give the full ingredients and nutritional values, once more including the nuts.
Warnings are essential for allergy sufferers. But with three of the ten chocolates listed already containing the word 'nut' in their menu names, Plain English Campaign is puzzled by this need for such frequent repetition.
Award nominations
- Details
- Created on Monday, 02 April 2012 11:53
Plain English Campaign is accepting nominations for their 2012 Golden Bull awards, and two outstanding EU examples of gobbledygook have been received today. The first is from an EU office, 'The Directorate General Information Society and Media (DG INFSO)' and the second from the Spanish central bank, 'The Bank of Spain'.
The first example from the EU website tells us that ordinary 'thinking' and 'doing' is simply not enough in a digital future. We think that 'prepare for reflections' and 'anticipatory thinking' means plain old 'thinking ahead'! There probably isn't much space left on the 'time horizon' for that though, with all the 'envisaging of scenarios', 'generating of policy options ' and 'inspiring of strategic choices'.
"The project envisages scenarios on a time horizon 2040-50 and generates ideas and policy options with a view to inspire future strategic choices of DG INFSO and the Commission."

Have you...g0tmi1k?
Hey, this is great very concise well done, however the video appears to be the 2nd part?
My Blog
Some days i feel like King Midas in Reverse - everything i touch turns to sh*t...............
Have you...g0tmi1k?
These maybe helpful to: Hate Talk I do not maintain this blog any more but lots of my old videos are up there
I made videos a few years ago for the level 1, disc 1 & 2.
I broke mine up into sections so that you only have to watch the section you are having trouble with with out watching the whole solution. This may be more helpful for people who are trying to actually beat the disc rather than watch someone else beat it.
I have a problem with vmware player... i boot the de-ice iso with vmware player and it "works" fine (the command prompt loads and asks for login...) I configure my eth0 to be in the same subnet:
when i ping 192.168.1.100 it does not seem to exist...Code:ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.10
I'm using Backtrack 4 (installed on disc - not in virtual machine)
So how do I "setup" the de-ice to work from backtrack?
I cant remember if it blocks ping requests...
It could be that you don't have your VMware player setup correctly. As I use virtual box, I cant help you too much.
What mode is the network card?
Are you running de-ice from inside backtrack?
Have you...g0tmi1k?
What is your setup? Are you using 1 computer with VMware player installed to run the De-ICE iso and using another computer to boot from a DVD of Backtrack?
Also the De-ICE VM won't respond to pings - use nmap
where is't video plz
this URL is not work
can you change this URL
because this URL is not WORK
plz change this URL

As most of you are aware, Arctic sea ice has shrunk dramatically over the last several decades, because of man-made global warming.
This year it has broken the records for lowest area, lowest extent, and lowest volume.
Perhaps more to the point, those records were broken not by a little — not even by a modest amount — the were broken by a helluva lot. Yes, a hell of a lot.
The loss of Arctic sea ice has been nothing short of astounding.
How have the fake skeptics of global warming responded? By changing the subject, of course.
Perhaps the most ridiculous example (by which I mean, worthy of ridicule) is on hcubed's blunderblog. And what does he change the subject to? This:
Antarctic sea ice set another record this past week, with the most amount of ice ever recorded on day 256 of the calendar year (September 12 of this leap year).
Wow! Stop the presses! Extra!!! Extra!!! Read all about it!!! Antarctic sea ice reaches record high for this day of the year!
What a shame for that poor, poor, unimpressive Arctic sea ice.
All it managed to do this year was set the record for lowest sea ice extent for a single day of the year for every day since July 28th.
Yes, that's the last few days of July, the entire month of August, and the entire month of September — so far. All it did was break the all-time record. All it was able to do this year was go below the pre-2012 all-time record 26 times — so far.
Yeah. The previous paragraph is sarcasm.

" 'Hidden in the Word': Maria Stewart, the Bible and Politics†with Dr. Valerie Cooper
When Saturday February 2, 2013 @ 2:00 PM (1633 days ago)
Where Massanutten Regional Library Main Branch
Duration 2 hours
In the 19th century, women like Maria Stewart were pioneering preaching and teaching ministries using the King James Version of the Bible as their central text. Stewart, an African American believed by many to have been the first American woman to give a political speech to an audience that contained men, used the Bible to argue for the rights of women and blacks in ways that echo Evangelical biblical appropriation today. In this presentation, Dr. Cooper will discuss the implications of Stewart's biblical hermeneutics for political speech in the 19th century as well as the 2012 presidential election.
The traveling exhibition Manifold Greatness: The Creation and Afterlife of the King James Bible was organized by the Folger Shakespeare Library, Washington, DC, and the American Library Association's Public Programs Office. It is based on the exhibition of the same name developed by the Folger Shakespeare Library and the Bodleian Library at the University of Oxford, with assistance from the Harry Ransom Center at the University of Texas at Austin, to mark the 400th anniversary of the publication of the King James Bible. The traveling exhibition was made possible by a major grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities.

Beaumont/Port Arthur
A suspect led police on a dangerous high-speed chase through the streets of Orange, actually traveling in the wrong direction on a one-way road during the pursuit and exceeding 95 mph in instances, police reported.
While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us "that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas," we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth. We're of the opinion that headlines and sound bites never tell the whole story. Our readers demand all the facts, facets and flavors of every story or event. And, they expect to be informed, educated and stirred to action.

Can you offer some suggestions for creating cabinet details?
Cabinet elevations can be easily created to suit your needs using the Wall Elevation and CAD Detail From View tools.
CAD Detail from View creates a line-based 2D drawing based on the current view and places it in a CAD Detail window. This drawing is saved with the plan file but is not linked to the 3D model in any way. Future changes made to the original view will not be reflected in the CAD Detail. When this occurs, you will need to create a new CAD Detail, so it is best to create details only when your plan is near completion.

Fatal crash at Oregon Coast
Wednesday around 8:40 a.m., a driver on Highway 101 south of Depoe Bay witnessed a car go through a wide turnout and off a cliff. The car crashed on the rocks 100 feet below the turnout near the surf line.
Emergency responders from Lincoln County Sheriff's Office, Depoe Bay Fire District, Pac West Ambulance, and Oregon State Police responded to the scene and confirmed the vehicle contained a deceased adult female inside. That woman is 23-year-old Adriana Star Ruiz, from Lincoln City. The U.S. Coast Guard responded with a helicopter and boat resources to help as needed.
OSP troopers from the Newport Area Command office are leading the investigation.

Q: Is Go FishIN just about fishing?
A: While fishing is the focus, Go FishIN is an educational approach that uses sport fishing to teach people the connections between fishing, the environment, and their community.
Q: Is there a connection to school curriculum?
A: Yes. Any school classroom can utilize some portion of the Go FishIN program. Go FishIN activities cover a broad range of school subjects, such as ecology, art, biology, mathematics, physical education, health, and even creative writing, while meeting numerous state education standards.
Q: What ages are appropriate for the Go FishIN program?
A: Many of the activities in the Go FishIN Manual and other educational resources are designed for ages 12-15; however, with minor modifications, the activities are applicable to all ages.
Q: Can you teach my group of kids how to fish?
A: Unfortunately, due to lack of personnel, the Go FishIN Coordinator cannot host your group at Fort Harrison State Park nor can he visit your classroom or pack meeting; however, if you attend a Crew Captain workshop, you can learn how to implement the Go FishIN program and teach your kids how to fish. You will be able to use Go FishIN educational materials and fishing equipment anytime you need them.
Q: How much does it cost to attend a Go FishIN workshop?
A: Go FishIN workshops are free.
Q: Once I get trained, will I have to buy fishing equipment?
A: No. After completing a Go FishIN Crew Captain workshop, you will be able to borrow rods, reels, and other tackle from the DNR free of charge.
Q: Do youth need a fishing license?
A: No. In Indiana, anglers under the age of 18 are not required to have a fishing license. To find out who needs a license, please check out the Fishing Regulations.
Q: Will I be able to find a place to fish where I live or work?
A: Yes. For public fishing areas and access sites, use Indiana's Where to Fish Finder. You can also contact your area Fisheries Biologist. If the position is vacant, contact the Regional Supervisor listed.
Q: Do we have to eat the fish?
A: No. Although fish are a delicious and nutritious source of protein found in Indiana, native fish that are caught can be released back into the water. Special handling techniques taught in the Go FishIN program help reduce fish injuries. If the caught fish is an aquatic invasive species (AIS), it must not be returned to the water. For more information, please read Indiana DNR's AIS Information.

PORT TOWNSEND, WA -- Miranda Boyer and Paul Rice, the owners of Middletown Dreams here, say their location is a new type of venue called a "pinbar" that has recently become popular nationwide.
As its name suggests, a pinbar is a pinball arcade that also serves liquor for on-premise consumption. The owners said their pinbar -- located two doors down from a Washington State University extension -- is attracting locals year-round.
"There are a lot of these places popping up, so we wanted to open one here," Boyer advised local media.
Middletown Dreams features about 20 pinball machines as well as some air hockey tables. Rice said players enjoy pins and hockey tables because they are more "tactile" than videogames.
The site, open from 3 p.m. to 1 a.m. Mondays through Thursdays, and from noon to 1 a.m. on weekends, recently launched its first "Double Elimination Hell in a Cell Air Hockey Tournament."
VT recently reported on another thriving new pinball specialty location called Pinball Jones (Ft. Collins, CO). Like Middletown Dreams, it is located near a college campus. | SEE STORY

The Daily Startup: SAGE Therapeutics Beefs Up With $38M for Epilepsy Trials
Top stories in today's VentureWire:
Seeking Treatment for Seizures. SAGE Therapeutics has raised $38 million in Series C financing, bringing its total backing to $90.5 million, as it initiates a clinical study of a drug for a life-threatening seizure condition with no approved therapy. SAGE's lead drug targets super-refractory status epilepticus, or seizures that aren't controlled with existing treatments. Investors include EcoR1 Capital Management, Foresite Capital Management, OrbiMed Advisors, ARCH Venture Partners and Third Rock Ventures. Other venture-backed developers of treatments for epilepsy patients include Marinus Pharmaceuticals.
ALSO IN TODAY'S VENTUREWIRE (subscription required):
Kineta, a biotechnology company with drug candidates, says it has raised undisclosed funding from angelMD, a newly launched firm with a crowd-funding portal.
Clinkle, which raised a record-setting seed round last year but has yet to publicly launch its mobile-payments service, has secured new funding from Stanford University's StartX accelerator program; meanwhile, its COO gives up his full-time duties after five months.
Premise Data, which monitors economic trends by collecting data from local sources in 30 countries, raised $11 million in Series B funding led by The Social+Capital Partnership.
Basho Technologies, the creator and developer of distributed NoSQL database Riak, said Adam Wray has joined the company as chief executive and Dave McCrory has joined as chief technology officer.
InVenture Capital, a startup that helps "unbanked" and "underbanked" people in India and Africa get access to financial services, has raised $1.2 million in a seed round led by Lowercase Capital.
(VentureWire is a daily newsletter with comprehensive analysis of all the investments, deals and personnel moves involving start-ups and their venture backers. For a two-week trial, click here.)
Revenue Gets Rich Price Tag in IPOs. The Castlight Health IPO will be a test of test of investor appetite for high-priced IPOs, WSJ's Matt Jarzemsky and Telis Demos report. The health-care software maker, an unprofitable company that had just $13 million in revenue last year, was valued at well over $1 million based on its IPO price—a ratio higher than on any IPO with more than $10 million in sales since 2001, according to data compiled by University of Florida Professor Jay Ritter. "This shows me that we're getting close to the top, when a company this small can do its IPO," said Paul Meeks, technology analyst at Saturna Capital, which oversees $4 billion. Still, among many investors and analysts, Castlight's proposed IPO price isn't unreasonable.
Eventbrite Joins $1 Billion Club. Online ticketing and event planning company Eventbrite has raised an additional $60 million in equity at a valuation of more than $1 billion from current investors Tiger Global Management and T. Rowe Price, a person familiar with the company told VentureWire's Deborah Gage. The two late-stage investors had put $60 million into Eventbrite last April, taking its total funding to about $135 million and enabling it to postpone an IPO, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Building the Fort Knox for Bitcoin. Silicon Valley startup Xapo is among a handful of young companies trying to become the Fort Knox of bitcoin, building secret bank vaults deep in the earth that would safely store millions of dollars worth of bitcoin code on computer drives, the WSJ's Evelyn Rusli reports. The company is raising $20 million led by Benchmark Capital to support a network of underground vaults that the company says are in mountainous regions on multiple continents.
Startups Gain From Farm Bill. The recently enacted Farm Bill, which calls for $956 billion in government spending through the next decade, will mostly spread its seeds to conventional crops. But startups are optimistic too, report the WSJ's Rhonda Colvin, Jesse Newman and Lora Kolodny. One example is Farmland LP, which transforms conventional farmland into organic farmland. By reducing federal spending on commodity programs for crops like corn, soybeans and rice, the new Farm Bill "significantly leveled the playing field for organic farming, making it an even more attractive opportunity for investors by reducing the unfair advantages previously granted to commodity grain crops by subsidies and crop insurance," said Ali Partovi, a Farmland LP investor who has also backed tech startups such as Facebook, Dropbox and Zappos.
New Early-Stage Consumer Tech Fund. Jonathan Teo of General Catalyst Partners and Justin Caldbeck of Lightspeed Venture Partners are planning to raise a new venture capital fund focused on early-stage consumer technology companies, Fortune's Dan Primack reports. Mr. Teo's deals for General Catalyst include Snapchat, and as a principal with Benchmark he "originated" the firm's investments in Twitter, Eucalyptus Systems and Instagram. Caldbeck's Lightspeed deals include GrubHub and TaskRabbit. He also was involved with the firm's Snapchat investment.
"Everyone Is Starting a Seed Fund." Chip Hazard, general partner at Flybridge Capital Partners, saw signs of a seed-fund frenzy at South by Southwest. "I met dozens of people who had started a seed fund in the last 12 months," he blogged after returning from Austin. "A few were super-talented and supremely well-connected and should be wildly successful, but most struck me as a little naive and only attracted to the bright lights and perceived glamour of finding the next WhatsApp or Uber. This will not end well for most."

Arcadia, CA, Oct. 19 -- HRTV (R), The Network for Horse Sports, will continue to bolster its Western equestrian programming line-up when two outstanding horsemanship clinicians -- Richard Winters and Charles Wilhelm -- are highlighted with new shows premiering on the network, beginning next week.
Series three of the weekly "Richard Winters Horsemanship" half-hour series will commence on Tuesday, Oct. 23 at 7 p.m., while the Charles Wilhelm episode offerings will kickoff on Sunday, Oct. 28 in a new 10 p.m. ET time slot.
"Richard Winters Horsemanship" series will showcase Winters' renowned skills as a teacher of proper horsemanship techniques, honing skills and conveying his vast knowledge to others.
Winters, whose impressive career spans three decades, will cover a host a pertinent topics on a weekly basis, including: pre-flight checklist (for first time riders), leg yielding, miniature horse training, Hackamore refinement, beach riding, advancing horsemanship, riding with a friend, and much more. Joining Winters within the series will be Dr. Steve Allday, who will discuss preventative treatments for horses, along with Winters' daughter, Sarah, also an accomplished trainer.
His credentials include a World Championship title in the National Reined Cow Horse Association along with being an AA rated judge. In 2007, he was named champion of the West Coast Equine Experience $10,000 Colt Starting Challenge, along with being presented with the Monty Roberts' Equitarian Award for outstanding achievements in Horse/Human relationships.
Wilhelm's informative shows first debuted on HRTV a year ago and were well-received. He, too, is known for his superb horsemanship skills in communicating and motivating people as well as his astounding natural abilities with the horse. His relaxed, warm and amusing character has made him a favorite at clinics and expos.
He believes that "it's never, ever the horse's fault" and his training methods reflect the simple belief -- equine training techniques that combine the best of traditional, classical and natural horsemanship into a methodology that is applicable to every riding discipline.
Wilhelm's teachings, from his Northern California ranch, are targeted toward elevating horsemanship levels and skills, from novice to professional.

'The affiliation between Buffalo and Rochester made sense for nearly three decades and makes sense now. Their relationship is an easy sell and created a broader fan base in both cities. The Amerks have teetered on instability since the Sabres dropped them three years ago. Reuniting them should make both franchises stronger.'

CNN economics correspondent wrong on projected Social Security benefits
Research ››› ››› DUNCAN BLACK
On the February 1 edition of CNN's Wolf Blitzer Reports, economics correspondent Kathleen Hays aided President Bush's attempt to depict a Social Security "crisis" by understating benefits that the Social Security trust fund will be able to pay future retirees if no changes are made to the system.
In purporting to illustrate the impact of a 27 percent benefit cut -- which the Social Security trustees estimate will be required in 2042 unless changes to the system are enacted before then -- Hays calculated the impact of a 27 percent cut in the current average monthly Social Security benefit. But the relevant calculation is the impact of a 27 percent cut in the average benefit in 2042 -- the year this cut would actually occur -- when the average benefits promised under current law will be substantially higher.
Under current law, Social Security benefits for new retirees are indexed to the average growth in wages, which generally increase faster than prices. According to the trustees, the average Social Security benefit is expected to rise by about 50 percent between 2004 and 2042. As currently promised, the average monthly benefit in 2042 would be worth about $1,300 in 2004 dollars; payable benefits, after the 27 percent cut, would be $949 in 2004 dollars -- nearly 50 percent higher than the $636 figure that Hays claimed would be the average monthly benefit following such a cut (and about 9 percent higher than the current average monthly benefit of $872).
From the February 1 edition of CNN's Wolf Blitzer Reports:
WALKER: There will be money in Social Security. The question is, how much money? Even when the trust fund runs dry, 2042, there will be about 73 cents in revenue for every dollar of promised benefits.
HAYS (voice-over): That would leave people with just three-fourths of their monthly benefits. Right now, the average monthly Social Security payment is about $872; three-fourths of that is just $636. That's a 27 percent cut.

FreshForce Orange Juicer by Chef'n
- Epic Large Design
- Extra Gear for Easier Squeezing
- Produces 20% More Juice Then Other Juicers
- Dishwasher Safe
The FreshForce orange juicer is orange to easily identify it, however, you can't miss this epic sized orange juicer. Easily two times as large as the FreshForce lemon squeeze and designed specifically for larger citrus like those big ol' oranges. The FreshForce gets its name from the force it can apply to your orange using the extra gear and power to easy hand strain. If you plan on juicing a lot of big citrus fruit, having less hand strain and more juice is the right choice.
Note: May also be used as a lime/lemon juicer but it does bring a larger design for a bigger fruit squeeze.

|Summary: Session Manager for GNOME -- Minimal Version
This packages contain a minimal version of gnome-session, that can be used for specific cases. The gnome-session package is needed for a fully functional GNOME desktop.
* Mon Feb 21 2011 firstname.lastname@example.com - Update gnome script to fix an issue where users from earlier versions of openSUSE could end up with no wallpaper in 11.4: + reset the wallpaper configured in the user config if it was explicitly set to a default wallpaper from a previous version of openSUSE. + we do this only once, if ~/.config/suse/gnome-11.4-wallpaper-migrated does not exist. + note that we're avoiding this issue for future releases since the default wallpaper will always keep the same name now. + this fixes the issue highlighted in bnc#671564 comment 2. - Also, still in gnome script: do not disable beagle on live images, since we don't ship beagle anymore. * Sun Feb 13 2011 email@example.com - Call relevant macros in %post/%postun: + %desktop_database_post/postun because the package ships at least one desktop file. + %icon_theme_cache_post/postun because the package ships themed icons. - Pass %{?no_lang_C} to %find_lang so that english documentation can be packaged with the program, and not in the lang subpackage. - Change Requires of lang subpackage to Recommends, since the english documentation is not there anymore. - Remove 2.x references in summaries and descriptions. * Wed Nov 17 2010 email@example.com - Update to version 2.32.1: + Updated translations. * Mon Sep 27 2010 firstname.lastname@example.com - Update to version 2.32.0: + Miscellaneous string fixes + Update information in README and other files + Update man pages + Updated translations. - Rebase gnome-session-bgo507101-tile-ui.patch. * Mon Sep 06 2010 firstname.lastname@example.com - Add X-SuSE-ControlCenter-Personal to session-properties.desktop instead of X-SuSE-ControlCenter-System, to make the item appear in the right place in menus. * Fri Aug 06 2010 email@example.com - Update to version 2.31.6: + Session Manager: - Fix a GSeal issue - Fixed spelling error in schema description - Port gnome-session to upower - Fix description of auto_save_session key + Drop compatibility tool that sets GTK+ 1.x environment variable + Drop the splash program + Require upower-glib instead of devkit-power-gobject + Add configure flag to select which GTK+ version to use + Updated translations. - Change DeviceKit-power-devel BuildRequires to libupower-glib-devel. - Rebase gnome-session-bgo507101-tile-ui.patch. - Drop gtk1-support and splash subpackage, and obsolete those packages. * Thu Jul 08 2010 firstname.lastname@example.com - Update to version 2.31.2: + Export _stop method for clients, for better GNOME Shell experience + Explicitly add -lXext -lXau to linker line + Updated translations. * Mon Jun 14 2010 email@example.com - Export XDG_MENU_PREFIX=gnome- in /usr/bin/gnome. This lets us use gnome-applications.menu to define the applications menu structure. This fixes various bugs, including bnc#595912. * Fri Jun 04 2010 email@example.com - Added support for translation-update-upstream (FATE#301344). * Sun May 23 2010 email@example.com - Split off a -core subpackage with a minimal runtime version * Tue Mar 30 2010 email@example.com - Update to version 2.30.0: + Updated translations. * Tue Mar 09 2010 firstname.lastname@example.com - Update to version 2.29.92: + Log out on SIGTERM and SIGINT + Delay the creation of the GsmXSMPClient until it really exists, to fix potential crashes on logout + Remove unneeded LIBGNOMEUI_REQUIRED from configure.in + Updated translations. * Fri Feb 12 2010 firstname.lastname@example.com - Update gnome script: + Remove migration code of panel configuration. It was only needed up to SLED11. SLED11 has been released, and we're openSUSE, so it's safe to remove it. + Make the code fixing the background configuration run only for non-openSUSE branded distributions. We don't want it in openSUSE since it runs gconftool-2, and might slow down login a bit. * Wed Jan 27 2010 firstname.lastname@example.com - Update to version 2.29.6: + Session Manager: - Fix typo in error message - Add diagnostic output for exit phase timeout - GSeal: Use accessor functions instead of direct access - Check that the XSMP connection exists when stopping a client to fix potential crash on exit + Capplet: - Destroy the main window on close to ensure changes are saved + Misc: - Install the helpers in libexecdir, not libdir - Rebase gnome-session-bgo507101-tile-ui.patch. - Drop gnome-session-fix-capplet-saving.patch: fixed upstream. - Remove en@shaw translation on openSUSE 11.2 and earlier. * Fri Dec 04 2009 firstname.lastname@example.com - Add BuildRequires and Requires on gconf-sanity-check, which was split from the main gconf2 package. * Wed Dec 02 2009 firstname.lastname@example.com - Update the way we remove the ha/ig locales for old versions of openSUSE. * Tue Dec 01 2009 email@example.com - Split the gnome-settings-daemon helper into a gtk1-support subpackage, that will only gets installed if gtk1 is installed. This should remove some unneeded cruft on login for most people. - Add --enable-splash configure option, and ship the splash screen in a splash subpackage. - Fix rpmlint warning about self-obsoletion. - Fix license: it's GPLv2+ and not "GPLv2+;LGPLv2.1+". * Mon Oct 12 2009 firstname.lastname@example.com - Add gnome-session-fix-capplet-saving.patch taken from upstream, to fix saving the autostart changes when quickly quitting the capplet after doing a change. * Fri Oct 02 2009 firstname.lastname@example.com - Update gnome script for the Live CD: + Make screensaver not lock the screen by default on LiveCD. + Make sure the "Live Installer" icon is visible on the desktop of the user. Because of xdg-user-dirs, the desktop directory is not always ~/Desktop, so we have to look at ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs first. * Tue Sep 22 2009 email@example.com - Update to version 2.28.0: + Trivial code fixes + Lock the screen before hibernate/suspend + Updated translations. * Wed Sep 09 2009 firstname.lastname@example.com - Update to version 2.27.92: + Remove at-spi-registryd wrapper (at-spi properly implements session management) + Updated translations. - Remove now non-existing --with-at-spi-registryd-directory configure option. * Wed Aug 26 2009 email@example.com - Update to version 2.27.91: + Install splash desktop file in $(sysconfdir)/xdg/autostart + Do not install gnome-splash.png unless --enable-splash is used + Fix idle watch not working + Fix typo in debug message + Use GTK+ accessor functions instead direct access + Remove deprecated Encoding key from desktop file + Port to PolicyKit 1 + Remove dependency on PolicyKit libraries + Updated translations. - Drop gnome-session-polkit1.patch: fixed upstream. - Respin gnome-session-bgo507101-tile-ui.patch. - Use spec-cleaner to reorder lines in preamble. * Wed Aug 19 2009 email@example.com - Add Requires on ConsoleKit: it's needed to have gnome-session work properly. * Thu Aug 06 2009 email@example.com - Add gnome-session-polkit1.patch to fix reboot/shutdown options being disabled. - Remove PolicyKit-gnome-devel BuildRequires. * Thu Aug 06 2009 firstname.lastname@example.com - Change Recommends to Requires for gnome-panel, gnome-settings-daemon, metacity and nautilus.

Plants of the South Bay
Have you ever wondered about the trees, bushes, and plants you see on the streets, lawns, business parks, and open fields of the South Bay as you drive by? Or are they just "plants"? Some of these trees and bushes have colorful histories from the Wild West, the Middle East, or Medieval times. Some are good to eat, some are toxic, and some are just plain obnoxious, destroying sidewalks or displacing native species. They all influence the climate, the air we breathe, and the look of Southern Califormia. Come and learn more about the plants of the South Bay.

You've seen the late night TV commercials - lose weight fast ... become a millionaire overnight ... take this pill and become a super stud.
Quick fixes - they never seem to really work, do they?
Dennis Radice, a professor at Central Florida Community College-Levy Center, says the same applies for GEDs.
He's noticed a recent wave of locals paying hundreds of dollars for online GEDs.
The people who did it said it's a quick and easy way to get that all-important piece of paper.
Radice says those pieces of paper are worthless.

Classic. The rock to take gold in Rio.
Because of the Olympics and MMA, wrestling is at its highest peak since 1980. Its just off the charts.trampolining thats a sport for failed gymnasts. And Badminton? Its a recreational sport, how can that supercede wrestling?I believe this has something to do with female viewers.

Wrestling is now vying with baseball/softball, squash, karate, sport climbing, wakeboarding, wushu and roller sports for a place in the 2020 Games
While I'm shocked at wrestling being dropped and think it's a poor decision, the roster of Olymic Sports is constantly changing. Personally I think it odd that netball is not an Olympic Sport. It's played by many women, is amazingly fast at top levels and is used by rugby and football players to teach positioning. There's always a one man's meat, another man's poison dimension to this discussion. In terms of the other sports on the list, the only one I would question is karate. Tae Kwan Do must be the most boring sport of all time. Two people bouncing up and down tryign to decide when to kick your opponnt in the torso or head. It bears no resemblance to any real fighting art and looks more like a comedy arse kicking contest at a village fete.

Hi everyone!
Can you suggest useful tools to increase my Twitter followers and FB fanpage likes. So far I've been using twiends to promote my twitter and Fanpage, but it is not effective. I've been losing followers after a few hours. thanks
Use Twiends.com I think it may help you.
is there any other option aside from Twiends? thanks.
i tried tool but i dont get desired output from them as getting manually giving me targeted person but using tool i realy dont get benefit..for social media marketing you need to have patience
follow others they also follow you.
People follow brands for relevant updates, news, games, promotions, deals, and other relevant reasons. Tools can not get around this reality... build a page with value and expose it to your users online or off depending on your business. If you don't have enough users to grow to the size you want than treat it like any other promotional campaign and start driving traffic over.
Without a reason to follow nothing will keep people around.
Eh??? There is no chance for this, you may lost you seeds but not followers. Right??? You can set your seed charing option from the setting. Twiends is s good option, change the twiends settings.
Hi Steevealex,
i did try to change my settings and yet, I can't change my default seeds to be given away
I still have a question about genuine likes that we get from Twiends users.. It is just going to increase the number of likes but not the business.. What do you people think?
Anything that adds followers / fans / friends for you without promoting your offering [i.e. auto following, anonymous follows, paid follows] is going to give you numbers, not value. I've had tweets about my product go out from top 10 accounts, the correlation with sales was not size but relevancy.
I hold a simple contest giveaway to increase a particular product's fanpage likes and twitter friends.
Contests can be a good way to get fans but you have to watch your followers closely to avoid building up a contesting culture.
People who follow you for free stuff or to win but have no connect to the brand, no interest in your messages and don't act in any way to contribute to or recirculate from what you say are not much value. As much as it's about the numbers, it's really not all about the numbers.
I read this somewhere else...it's probably not the best idea...but apparently you can pay people on fiverr to get their fb friends to like you and stuff...not quite sure how all this pans out in the long -run though...
Fans who aren't interested in the page, drag down your relevancy [which makes your posts show up less often and have less impact] and you violate the facebook rules.
I hate to be harsh to those who have or want to buy fans but there just isn't an upside here...
I've been using twiends and I don't think it is a good idea. It is a waste of time and energy. I will settle for manual following. An hour a day will do.
I suggest you add/invite random people whom you think may be of help to what you are adhering to. This way, whenever you post, comment or update you FB fanpage, they will see it on their news feeds and may become interested in it. Since Facebook can be connected with Twitter, your friends in Facebook who also have Twitter may follow you..
But keep in mind, Facebook accounts are handled by people with various interests and preferences, so results are sure to vary even if you follow my advice.. Also, when posting in your wall, always make sure that some, and not all your posts should be of relevance to your FB Fanpage, as the people may think you are advertising or something, and being an account holder in FB, this is irritating for me. And on occasion, try tagging friends in one of your Notes pertaining to your fanpage.. But do not do this as often, but only on rare cases.
How is this any different than just spamming people? Where's the value to either your own community or them?
twitter followers can be increased through wefollow website and fans for a facebook fanpage can be increased by frequently posting the updates.
The best tool to increase likes and fans is good content.
im also using twiends...but then dont just use a tool instead combine it with good content

Remembering Jim Brennan
(Photo by Ken Robinson / WTAM)
(Cleveland Heights) - There is a growing memorial outside the now closed Colony Restaurant on Lee Road, as customers, friends, and family members pay their respects to Jim Brennan.
The owner of the popular eatery was shot and killed during an attempted robbery Monday afternoon. At the door there are many flowers, mementos and other tributes to Brennan.
Cleveland Heights Mayor Dennis Wilcox said in a statement that Brennan was a community leader who hosted many charity and sports fundraisers.
Others say Brennan gave them their first job, or taught them the restaurant business. Customers told Newsradio WTAM 1100 that Brennan was a quiet man, but always had a smile and a hearty welcome for everyone.

Cleveland Heights Police Chief Jeffrey Robertson said officers were called to Brennan's Colony Restaurant and Tavern at about 1 p.m. Monday after reports of gunfire in the area.
He said officers found Brennan inside with gunshot wounds. Brennan was taken to an area hospital where he later died.
No arrests have been made in the shooting. Investigators say two suspects entered the restaurant in an attempt to rob it when Brennan confronted them.
The suspects are described as black males between the ages of 17 and 21 years old. They fled eastbound on Silsby Road, and remain at large.

Note: Wilhelm Furtwangler's last name is typically spelled with an umlaut over the 'a' character. The npr website does not support characters with umlauts over characters. A variation of Furtwangler's name without the umlaut is spelled Furtwaengler.
Wilhelm Furtwaengler's name may be hard for Americans to pronounce, but the reason this great conductor isn't so well-remembered here is that he chose to remain in Germany during WWII, though he was never a member of the Nazi Party, and was exonerated by a postwar tribunal.

From his start with the band Bluesology in 1961, multi-award winner Elton John (born Reginald Kenneth Dwight) has time and time again proven himself to be one of the most iconic singer-songwriters of our day. Rising to international fame by the 1970's with the hit "Your Song," Elton has since released an overwhelming number of studio albums, many of which have climbed their way to the top of the charts.

burping position
Hi. I have an infant and I only know one position for him for burping and that's making him sit. I would like to know what other position we can try to make him burp because sometimes, making him sit doesn't make him that comfortable.

The other position for burping which is very comfortable for baby is to put baby's head up on your shoulder so that he is in an upright position, and his body is laying against you, head resting on your shoulder.
Then gently pat his back or rub his back.
Here's a new technique I've never seen before. Rocking baby side to side and then putting baby on the shoulder and patting or rubbing the back. Seems to be a secret "Grandma" technique.

The 'Phantom of the Opera' singer will be singing in the movie for the first time ever when she appears in 'Hunky Dory'.
Actress Minnie Driver is set to show off her musical skills in new movie "Hunky Dory" by performing with a children's orchestra. The actress, who has recorded two albums, has never sung on film before and she admits it was a dream come true to combine her two passions.
She says, "Apart from singing the title track on the Phantom of The Opera soundtrack this is my first time singing on film. It's the best experience I've had. It was incredible singing all the music from the 70s; I sang a Beach Boys song, I sang a Dusty Springfield song. My favorite was singing Strange Magic. The orchestra in the movie were these kids from seven to 17 and they had been workshopping for the last three years."
"They played everything on all of the tracks. So you have Life On Mars by David Bowie played by these kids incredibly."

- STEM Education: Do it for the Kids… and Your Company's Future
- Increasing Support for PLM Education
PTC's John Stuart: "For the manufacturing industry, the STEM education opportunity is a clear example of how to create shared value."
As the United States works toward rebuilding domestic manufacturing in an effort to foster growth, companies will be seeking out the next generation of their manufacturing workforce. A lack of domestic talent in the U.S. will force companies to look to other shores. Those same companies have been impacted by the digital revolution that has and will continue to change how manufacturers design, develop and bring new products to market.
The new manufacturing workforce is comprised of skilled workers that require higher education and specialized degrees: engineers, data scientists and software developers. Because of this, lagging achievement and enrollment in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) education in the United States is and will be one of the larger issues facing our domestic ability to fill those employment opportunities. Securing the future of domestic manufacturing must begin with a strong commitment to the advancement and encouragement of STEM education.
Supporting STEM education programs and initiatives gives manufacturers, suppliers and product development technology providers like PTC an opportunity to create what Harvard Business School Professor Michael Porter calls "shared value" – a more targeted, strategic version of the corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs we see companies engaging in today. At its foundation, shared value is designed to build connections between a firm, its employees and its community – not at the expense of profitable growth, but rather in support of it. For the manufacturing industry, the STEM education opportunity is a clear example of how to create shared value.
At PTC, we're in lock step with the manufacturing industry as we're continually looking to deliver technologies that drive innovation by helping manufacturers build smarter product design, development and service processes. While we previously engaged in CSR programs by doing things like donating playgrounds to local communities, shareholders wanted PTC to make profits, pay dividends and leave the donation decisions to them. We had come face to face with that conflict between business priorities and a desire to connect and support local communities and our industry. Since then, however, PTC has embraced Porter's notion of "shared value" through dedicated support of STEM education programs such as FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) and the Department of Defense's STARBASE initiative.
In order to commit to and achieve "shared value," we felt our support had to go beyond financial sponsorship. For FIRST's robotics competitions and similar programs like the Real World Design Challenge (RWDC), PTC provides students with Creo and Windchill, our CAD and PLM tools, to design and develop their robots. For several years, we have hosted competition kick-off and unveiling events for these programs at our headquarters in Needham, Mass., and a number of our employees offer their time and energy to serve as mentors for these student robotics teams. In the past year alone, PTC supported over 100 student teams ranging from grade school to high school level. We're also working to develop teacher certification programs for educators looking for a way to support STEM education while also receiving the development credits they need for their careers.

Amanda Berry and Gina DeJesus are home
(Cleveland) — Two of the women held captive for a decade at a run-down Cleveland house were welcomed home by jubilant crowds of loved ones and neighbors with balloons and banners Wednesday as police built a case against the three brothers under arrest.
The families of the two young women, Gina DeJesus and Amanda Berry, protectively took them inside, past hundreds of reporters and onlookers. Neither woman spoke, and their families pleaded for patience and time alone.
"Give us time and privacy to heal," said Sandra Ruiz, DeJesus' aunt. Ruiz thanked police for rescuing the three women and urged the public not to retaliate against the suspects or their families.
DeJesus, who disappeared in 2004 and is in her early 20s, arrived home in the afternoon Wednesday to chants of "Gina! Gina!" Wearing a bright yellow hooded sweatshirt, she was led through the crowd and into the house by a woman who put her arm around the young woman's shoulders and held her tight.
Berry arrived at her sister's home, which was similarly festooned with dozens of colorful balloons and signs, one reading "We Never Lost Hope Mandy." Hundreds cheered wildly but weren't able to get a glimpse of Berry as she went in through the back.
Her sister, Beth Serrano, made a brief statement that they are happy Amanda is home and asked reporters to respect their privacy.
It is possible that Amanda will make a statement in the near future.
Before Berry's arrival, 2nd District Commander Thomas McCartney discussed the joy and relief that Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight were all found alive.
The third captive, Michelle Knight, 32, was reported in good condition at Metro Health Medical Center, which a day earlier had reported that all three victims had been released. There was no immediate explanation from the hospital.
Meanwhile, the aunt of a 14-year-old girl who disappeared in 2007 near the house where the missing women were found said the girl's mother has spoken with the FBI.
"We're hoping for our miracle, too," said Debra Summers, who described her niece, Ashley Summers, as not the type of girl who would leave without coming back.
The FBI did not immediately return a call about the case and whether it was connected to that of the three missing women.
Associated Press writers Andrew Welsh-Huggins, Jesse Washington, Mike Householder and freelance reporter John Coyne in Cleveland, Mitch Stacy in Columbus, Dan Sewell in Cincinnati, John Seewer in Toledo, and news researchers Rhonda Shafner and Jennifer Farrar in New York, contributed to this report.
