Attention to Detail and Food Quality has dropped
This was a return cruise on the Millennium after sailing on her in January 2016. I'm sad to say that the attention to detail to detail and food quality and presentation has dropped in that time.
on two occasions we had bugs in our food - once was in a salad in the main dining room, and when the salad was sent back to the kitchen for a replacement, the replacement also had bugs. The third salad was fine. We had an apology sent to our cabin of four small under-ripe strawberries dipped in chocolate (I would have preferred a verbal apology). The second occasion was weevil bugs in the cereal in the Oceanview Cafe - an apology on the spot, but no further acknowledgement that the issue had been addressed.
This was a Holidays sailing, so we were on board for Christmas, Hanukkah and New Years. Previous Christmas sailings with Celebrity had seen them go all out with the food with a Christmas Day brunch in the dining room with Ice Sculptures and various food stations, with egg nog avaialable. This time saw nothing on the menu for breakfast or lunch that was remotely Christmas related, and there was only turkey on the dinner menu that was close to Christmas- not even any Christmas pudding available for dessert. Even the OceanView Cafe didn't have any special display of cakes to show it was Christmas. The only thing food related was a display of gingerbread houses at the entry to the OceanView and on the Grand Staircase but they were there all cruise.
We had also booked for the New Years Eve dinner in Tuscan Grill, which was sold as a special five course event and priced accordingly at $99 pp, but the whole evening was rushed like they were trying to get us out as quickly as possible (we were out in an hour and a half!). The only dish worth mentioning was the steak which was cooked to perfection and just melted in the mouth, the lobster on the other had was like rubber.
In general, none of the food across the ship wowed us like it had on our previous 10 cruises with Celebrity, and it feels as though they are starting to wind the ship down for retirement once the new Celebrity Edge ships are launched.
Bar staffing seemed very disorganised as well, and there was always a significant wait for drinks and understaffing in key areas - eg inadequate bar staff in the theatre before shows, inadequate staff in the martini bar prior to dinner seatings, and rarely enough Pool Bar staff on sea days, however if you went to less populated areas, such as lounges during sea days, they had more than enough staff - some readjustment of rosters in required. It may also be related to the fact that they are now including the drinks packages, so don't want to make it too easy for people to get a drink.
on the positive side, cabin staff were excellent. Celebrity have recently changed their staffing in this area with a single cabin steward responsible for a smaller number of cabins (rather than a Head Steward and Assistant responsible for a larger number). This works well, and you get to know your Steward much better, and they are responsible for all things cabin related. The Chief Housekeeper - Mila, was exceptional. One of the port days saw a large number of passengers return to the ship just as a downpour of rain hit. As they were queued to reboard, she was running out with umbrellas and towels just to keep everyone as dry as possible for their comfort - she was saturated in the process, but this is the type of service we have grown to appreciate from Celebrity in the past - I just hope it returns to other areas of the ship.
Great Cruise for Running of the Bulls
We chose this cruise because it had an overnight in Bilbao to enable us to go to Pamplona for Running of the Bulls. The itinerary was excellent with some great stops along the way. There is so much to see in Spain that you could take this cruise again and see completely different things.
This ship is a great size to keep interactions personal without getting too big like some of the mega-liners. Staff would remember your drinks, ie cocktails, or specialty coffees.
Great Cruise Itinerary, but condition of the ship needs some work
We had originally booked on the cruise after this which was scheduled as a Chinese New Year Signature Sailing, but when Celebrity chartered the ship, we moved to this cruise as the itinerary was almost the same.
The service was generally what we had come to expect from Celebrity from previous cruises, but there were a couple of standouts such as Maria in Cafe al Bacio and Sever, one of the somelliers in the main dining room.
While most people go to the buffet for breakfast and lunch, give the main dining room a try, as the food there is as exceptional through the day as it is at night.
If you get the opportunity, try the progressive dinner (limited spaces available) which samples the food and experience in each of the specialty restaurants on the ship (one restaurant per course).
We did have a slight change to our itinerary (extra night in Hong Kong) as a result of bad weather. Even delaying our departure we experienced 18ft waves the day after Hong Kong. The ship was prepared, putting out extra paper bags around the ship for ill passengers affected by the high seas.
Overall a great cruise and some very interesting ports (particularly Vietnam).

The World Shocks When A Teacher Posted This Photo Doing As Punishments
It should come as no surprise that when it comes to children, not every day is going to be a good day on the behavioral front.
But no matter what kind of trouble our kiddos get into, we expect teachers to discipline them in a way that's safe and productive. That's why it comes as no surprise that when parents in Thailand found out how these two little girls were treated by teachers, they were totally up in arms.
A school in Surin, Thailand, is facing heavy criticism from parents as well as educators after photos of two small children bound and blindfolded made their way online.
|fb post
While neither the students nor the teachers have been publicly identified, it has been revealed that the two teachers in question performed the disciplinary actions in front of shocked classmates after the girls allegedly ripped up paper in class.
The girls can be seen blindfolded and with their hands bound with tape.
Rather than taking the side off the students, the school and its headmaster are siding with the teachers, stating that the blindfolding and binding of children is an excellent way to teach them how to concentrate.
After one of the girl's fathers complained and got the authorities involved, the teachers were ordered to pay compensation. Police have also launched an investigation into the school and its practices.
The teachers have yet to be charged but are currently seeking transfers to other school districts. Share this post if you think they should never be allowed to teach children again!

This dress is absolutely gorgeous. It was a little big on me and I had to take it in on the waist, even after I opted to customize it. I bought a petticoat but decided not to wear it after all. The details on this dress is so perfect. Customer service was great with JJS HOUSE, prompt response and fast shipping. I would highly recommend this dress and this store.
Thank you.

Makoshika comes alive in Glendive Native's artwork (slideshow 2)
By Daniel Nolker
Ranger-Review Staff Writer
Vibrant and colorful oil paintings contrast stark and refined black and white prints in Glendive native and Dickinson State University art student Josh Reed's senior capstone art show "Unified Diversity."
Inspired by the vast array of textures and colors in the badlands of Makoshika State Park, Reed combined different media for his art. Along with oil paint on stretched canvas, he also used paint and monotype prints on unprimed canvas.
"I really strive to push myself in everything I do, so I decided to work the prints in with the painting. It was something new for me and it worked out perfectly. The color of the unprimed canvas matches what you see in the landscape when you are hiking in Makoshika," Reed said.
More than just a challenging project, the subject of Makoshika fits the passion Reed has developed as an artist at DSU.
"I've always loved drawing and I found I can express myself with more freedom through landscapes. It was important for me to focus on Makoshika because people can take its beauty for granted. It's such a wonderful place and people drive right through without thinking about it," Reed said.
Along with the landscape, artists in Glendive also inspired Reed. Dawson County High School art teacher NaDean Brown and local artist and social studies teacher Tom Temple both encouraged Reed to explore his talent and pursue art. He said a turning point as an artist was when Temple took him to a professional artist's studio where he saw what it would be like to do his own art.
Temple said he could tell Reed had talent even when he was in high school.
"He's definitely gifted and I'm glad to see he has used some unique opportunities to propel him into something he loves. More than anything, I think his tremendous work ethic will help him do well," Temple said.
For Reed, the hard work is part of the allure of pursuing a career in art and his effort has won him accolades in the art community. Last year he won best in show at the DSU art show. This year, one of his pieces was accepted for the Self Employment in the Arts Annual Conference in Chicago. He said the conference taught him a lot about marketing his work and intensified his interest in pursuing art as a career.
With an art entrepreneurship major and minors in graphic design and entrepreneurship, Reed plans to start his own business. After graduating in May, he is considering starting his own graphic design business or opening a gallery.
"I like that you are your own boss and you need to know how to market yourself and manage your business. There's a lot to it: math, science, chemistry, history," he said.
Although it is a challenging career, he said it is important for him to have the freedom to do what he loves and show people new things. Like the unrecognized beauty of Makoshika, he wants to share with people the deeper implications of art.
"Art isn't just painting pretty pictures. It's putting your life and your backstory and everything that's meaningful to you into your pieces," Reed said.
His work will remain on display until April 26 in the Mind's Eye Gallery in Klinefelter Hall on the DSU campus Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Trivandrum Zoo and Museum Complex Feb 05, 2012

First one will be the Art museum. This museum has some amazing art work done by yester years gold smiths. Photography is not allowed and entrance fee is 25 US cents.
I felt that I am blessed when I visited Sri Chitra art gallery in this complex. I never expected that I will get to see Raja ravi varma original paintings. Amazing experience. Hamsa Damyanthi is awesome. We can see the life in these pictures. Photography and footware are not allowed here. 15 US cents is the price to be here..
Zoo has almost all animals. From Keral[s own monkey to zeebrs to black buck to spotted dear to lion to tiger to rhino to hippo.. Almost all.. Very healthy, in shape and energetic. The one I have not seen are Giraffe, Kangaroo and some other mammals. Costs an USD for entrance and Camera fee.
Overall a great experience to know about the Kerala culture, skilled artwork and animals. Definitely recommend this place.

Fruitcake has become a quintessential Christmas dessert. The history of fruitcake dates back to Roman times, when fruitcake recipes contained pomegranate seeds, raisins, and pine nuts mixed into barley mash. Today's fruitcakes are heavy cakes made with sugar, flour, eggs, chopped candied fruit or dried fruit, nuts, and spices. Learn more about fruitcake history to understand how this sweet and colorful treat became a holiday favorite.
Exploring Fruitcake History
Roman Times to the Middle Ages
Fruitcake in Roman times was brought into battle by soldiers, because the cake did not spoil and could be transported with ease. It was not until the Middle Ages that spices, preserved fruit, and honey were added to fruitcake. After learning that it was possible to preserve fruit by soaking it in high concentrations of sugar, Europeans began to import fruits from other parts of the world and preserve it by candying it. As a result, Europeans were able to add not only native candied fruits like plums and cherries to their fruitcake, but also tropical fruits.
Outlawed in the Early 18th Century
In the early 18th century, fruitcakes were outlawed in continental Europe because they were considered "sinfully rich," though they eventually came back into fashion in England.
19th Century Rise
Between 1837 and 1901, fruitcake was an extremely popular treat in England and no Victorian tea was complete without one. By the 19th century, fruitcake typically contained citrus peel, pineapple, dates, pears, cherries, and plums. Fruitcake spread throughout the New World and was especially popular in areas where fresh fruit was not widely available. Nuts were a popular addition to fruitcakes in the United States, as most fruitcake makers were located in Southern communities where cheap nuts were available.
Fruitcake at Christmas
Although it is not completely clear why fruitcake became a Christmas staple, some people believe that it is tied to the holiday season, because English people passed fruitcake slices out to poor women who sang Christmas carols on the street in London.
20th Century Decline
Some believe that fruitcakes became unpopular in the early 20th century with the advent of mass-produced, mail-order fruitcakes. These fruitcakes were notoriously dry and tasteless and were covered in garish-looking candied fruits. Furthermore, mass-produced fruitcakes were made with cheap, inferior ingredients. Considering how unpleasant these fruitcakes were to eat, it is no surprise that they came to be frowned upon.
Modern-Day Fruitcake
What Modern Fruitcake Entails
Fruitcake gets a bad rap these days and is often the butt of people's jokes. In fact, there is even a fruitcake toss each year in Colorado, giving people the opportunity to toss their unwanted fruitcakes. However, despite its decline in popularity over the years, fruitcake is still an important part of many people's holiday traditions. Some versions of fruitcake are iced and decorated. Fruitcake is typically served at weddings and on Christmas. Because it is so rich, most fruitcake is served alone without cream, butter or other condiments. Fruitcakes are also often soaked in alcohol, which gives them a longer shelf life.
Fruitcake Around the World
Recipes for fruitcake vary widely from one country to another. Germany's traditional fruitcake is called stollen. It is shaped like a loaf and covered with powdered sugar on the outside. Stollen is typically made with raisins, almonds, yeast, butter, water, flour, and zest. Panforte is a chewy and dense fruitcake from Italy that is flavored with spices. In the Bahamas, fruitcake is drenched with rum and contains candied fruits, walnuts, and raisins.
Making Your Own Fruitcake
If you want to try making homemade fruitcake, Christmas is a great time to give it a go. In order to be considered successful, a fruitcake must be moist and have a variety of flavors.
Most fruitcake experts agree that fruitcake should be made at least one month in advance of its eating or gifting so that its flavors have a chance to deepen. Bakers may also choose to pour rum, whiskey or brandy over the finished loaf to make it denser and moister.
Whether you love or hate fruitcake, there is no denying that the history of fruitcake is fascinating. Keep this information in mind, and it is possible that you will not look at fruitcake the same way again!

Need Itinerary Advice-lots of questions
Need Itinerary Advice-lots of questions
forgive me because i know nothing about SE Asia so this itinterary may not make sense....
I am trying to plan a trip in March for about 6 weeks. We were thinking of starting in Hanoi and making out way down Vietnam, across Cambodia, and then into Thailand. Specifically (Hanoi, Halong Bay, Hoi An, Nha Trang, Mui Ne, Saigon, Phnom Pheh, Siem Riep, Bangkok (although we prefer to spend little time in the big cities), then down to the islands in Thailand). We would then fly out of Bangkok at the end to go home. I was wondering if this is too much for a 6 week trip? I read it is better to not try and pack too much in a short amount of time.
I have the lonely planet book and its so much information that I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions about places that are MUST SEE or suggestions about getting to all these places?
Also, can anyone offer advice about the islands off of Cambodia, and if they are worth visiting? And if so, what the fastest way is to get to the islands of Thailand from there?
Also, is it possible in the time we have to see islands on both sides of Thailand? (Ko Phi Phi/Phuket AND Ko Tao/Ko pha ngan/koh samui). And if so, what the best way to get from one side to the other would be.
Thanks so much!
I appreciate your advice/response!

It sounds like a beach/coastal trip to me and 6 weeks is fine for that if you don't plan to visit some more historical sights and focus on beach
Probably roughly 3 weeks for the places you mention in Vietnam, 1 week in Cambodia and then 2 weeks in Thailand. Can not really help with Thai islands but here's a few comments suggestions for coastal places in Cambodia and Vietnam:
- Some of the islands in Cambodia are beautiful but are lacking any of the facilities you find in Thailand. Any accommodation is usually very basic but it's a nice "back to bascics" feeling.
You'll have to go along the coast to reach BKK but it's easy and from Sihanoukville you can reach BKK in 1very tiring day or 2 easy days. Can recommend these islands if you want a different flavor to your beach travel
- Phu Quoc (VN) is a typical beach holiday island with beautiful beaches but it has nothing else to do. Major development will start soon but it's still ok for now.
- Con Dao (VN) for a real "out of the way" feeling for your beach trip. My personal favorit.
Con Dao is a flight destination (from HCMC), Phu Quoc is also flying or overland through Mekong delta and ferry from Ha Tien or Rach Gia.
I think you can squeeze 1 or 2 of the three easily in your itinerary
I personally would trade Mui Ne (assuming that you want to visit Nha Trang for nightlife) for either Phu Quoc or Con Dao

Thank you so much for your advice! We are avid divers and live in Southern California, so planning a "beach trip" was what came naturally. However, we definitely want to see historic sites and are up for leaving the coast considering we will get plenty of beach in Thailand.
Any suggestions?
Thanks again!

Save the diving for Thailand. I'm not a diver but my friends are and they all agree that it's no comparison between Thailand and the other 2.
I would skip Nha Trang and Mui Ne altogether and trade it in for an island. Put emphasis on three regions and take (overnight) trains between the regions:
Hanoi, Halong, ( Sapa ) (1 week/10 days).
Hoi An, ( Hue ) (4 days/1 week)
Saigon, Island/Mekong delta (1 week)
some suggestions:
Time wise you should probably choose between Sapa or Hue (depends on your interest)
For the south it's probably a choice between the Mekong and an island
- Sapa, to see the hilltribes and beautiful mountain scenery (3-4 days)
- Hue, summer palaces make for a nice little boat trip on the river. Also Hue has some great cuisine if you try the specialties from that city. (1 day, 2 nights)
- Mekong delta. Easy excursion from Saigon. Great way to see the waterways and locals living on/with the water, fruit farms and rice fields (2-3 days). You can visit mekongdelta on the way to Cambodia.
Either via Chau Doc to Phnom Penh (2 days) or via Ha Tien and than enter in Kep and onwards to Phnom Penh (3-4 days). The latter way you can see a little of Cambodian coast and visit Rabbit island.

If you go to the Mole website (The Mole - Home - ABC.com), there is a widget that you can download. It's on the right-hand side, all the way over on the edge. You can watch videos, read the newswire, and get to the episodes page. I guess they update it every week, because I haven't downloaded it, but there is a new clue card. Last week it was E_E_E_, and now it'sOriginally Posted by Bonbonlover;3048825;
Also, the ubiquitous red flash/lens-flare-thing is highlighting the C in the first row, but I don't remember if it was there last week, so I can't say how significant it is.

"Don't smoke. Don't drink and drive. And pay your taxes. Because they will find you." -- James, Big Brother 6
So the clue this week has to do with a pattern. There are 11 spots in the pattern. There were 11l people left last week, right? Now there are only 10...
There are 5 in the top line and 6 in the bottom line...
Oh my, that is disturbing,Originally Posted by Krom;3048687;
I'm liking the clue about Clay, and also I predict a male mole as well this season... simply because there are already 3 out of 4 female moles... and they're heck of a mole
All Hail Omarosa
Great clues everyone, wow. We have to rule out some to narrow the choices. I would not choose anyone with questionable health for the mole. Production would not run the risk of losing someone to collapse. Craig and Bobby are not in my rifle sight at the moment for this reason.
I noticed during the clothing task, Victoria was shown right before a commercial break having a star tattoo on her wrist. At dinner, there was the Chilean flag which has a star.
Also, Texas (where Victoria is from) is known as the Lonestar state.
I also remember someone posting either here or on another site that the clue on the ABC site that had something to do with 666 liaR and when they refered to the bible it said that 666 was the mark of the beast, and that they would have a mark on their right hand, then we saw Victoria's tattoo....maybe that is looking in to it too much, but it goes along with what you say. I may have gotten some of that wrong as I am not religious.Originally Posted by awesomekina23;3064570;
Also, another thing I was thinking of...what if Craig doesn't really have all of these health issues, and they just made up the whole sleep apnea stuff. He may just be overweight and he IS the mole!! I'm just sayin....
I would so love for that to be true! If Craig really is the mole, he is a great mole. He plays the whole fallen hero thing really well. I still think it's Clay though! XDOriginally Posted by ko_vixen;3069817;
Damn...wrong again!!Originally Posted by ko_vixen;3069817;
New poster here, so my observations may be completely crazy & off the mark, but here goes. Jon holding up journal #11 on the first show seemed to me to be a significant clue. I think the Mole has journal #11. Then the web clue for that week was E_E_E_ & as most believe, that means ELEVEN. On episode #4, we see at the first dinner that Mark has journal #10 and then at the journal burning, Jon refers to Alex as "#12". I think we can eliminate both Mark & Alex (although I have been very suspicious of both). If we pay attention during the upcoming episodes, we should be able to identify other players and their journal numbers to find out who does or doesn't have #11.
Now on to other uses of the number 11. Clay was #11 in the soccer game and as someone else stated, the pigs were made of clay. Also, the gold bricks were made of clay. The Mole's diary for episode #3 says, "No shirt, no shoes, no service." Clay & Mark were the two who didn't have clothes for dinner that night so they didn't eat.
Craig is also on my radar, but my reasons aren't quite as defined. As I firm them up in my mind, I'll post those too.
What do you think? Could Clay be the Mole?

After years of work and patient diligence, I've finally earned my law degree.
It takes a dedicated, clear-thinking individual to see through silly banalities and make strong, important decisions that benefit those around them.
What? Law school? What the hell is a "law" school?
No, no, no. I have a Murphy's Law Degree. A JDM.
I'm sure you know all about that ever-present phenomenon that we've all dallied with occasionally: If something can go wrong in a situation, it most definitely will.
The term Murphy's Law originated from Army engineer Edward Murphy, whose tests involved rocket sleds and human g-force testing in the 1950s.
He allegedly made the comment about his assistant stating, "If that guy has any way of making a mistake, he will."
To me, this sounds strangely like a boss trying to pin his failed ability to competently do his job on the people tasked to work on his behalf.
Maybe Murph should have spent more time choosing assistants and less time becoming a cultural zeitgeist.
Some examples of Murphy's Law, you ask? Ask and ye shall receive, you smoothed out, slappy goof.
1. When using a tool, at the most inopportune time, it will fall from your hands and seemingly disappear from the planet. This happened to me recently with a metal ring that keeps my daughter's bike seat from falling off my bike. Gone. From. Existence.
2. My Wi-Fi will poop itself only when something I've written is due within minutes. That winking little light will wither and die on my laptop, and at that point, I'll know that Murphy has made a comment about the content of my blather. My only hope is that by revealing his true nature in this hard-hitting expose, he'll allow me to spread his screw-you gospel to the millions that read my column.
3. The only tried and true method for finding a sharp object is to walk around barefoot, preferably at night when your daughter is still teetering in and out of sleep and would easily be awakened by a shrill, screaming shriek ending in a manly cough and the dabbing of very masculine tears.
(Frighteningly obvious proof that God/Jebus/Murphy's Law Chtulu monsters read my column: While writing this, my wife accidentally broke a bottle of salad dressing. Even after her maniacally efficient cleaning of our kitchen floors, I found a missing piece of glass with my bare foot … at 2 a.m. Duh duh duhhhhhhh!)
4. When you choose a line at the supermarket, that line will immediately become a sad, lethargic queue lead by a frugal schmuck with a cheap tie that's decided to make it rain with coupons for his entire months worth of Top Ramen, turkey jerky and strawberry Yoo Hoo.
The sooner we learn how to harness and accelerate our existence by utilizing our knowledge of Murphy's Law, the sooner we'll have cell phones that don't drop calls from our miffed spouses and cars that don't commit Seppuku on the way to a job interview.
Oh, and the most popular example is probably the buttered toast phenomenon. If you drop buttered toast, it will unfailingly fall butter side down.
Which only leads us to one possible, logical conclusion about Murphy's Law: use margarine.
After years of work and patient diligence, I've finally earned my law degree.

imagine how happy both (joke!) big buisness that use SLED would be if you changed their default desktop..
It must have been painful moving from Windows to gnome, why make another transition. Simply put these companies would not upgrade.
A linux community is, as a whole, like hurding cats. Everyone wants a different feature for their own specific reasons. For anything to get done then there HAS to be a 'leader' pointing in a direction.
If you don't like the direction, feel free to fork or join another project that matches your requirements. This is the great benefit/curse of open source development
True, but the marketing pitch for SLEx would be a lot harder:
"Use Gnome, our community distro on which SLEx is based uses KDE"
That said, I think Frank and Sebas are pushing this issue mostly for political reasons. It is kind of silly when KDE devs that are on Planet Ubuntu think they should tell the OpenSUSE community what to use as a default.
The major issue is that KDE has no big support from a major vendor. Canonical, Novell and Red Hat are Gnome shops at the end of the day. So a lot of KDE devs are searching for a distro. Kubuntu seemed to be the solution for some time, but now Aaron and a lot of other KDE devs left and use SUSE, but that isn't a real solution to the problem that there is no distro with a lot of devs that focuses on KDE. (I know about Pradus etc, but they don't have the devs like Novell, Red Hat or Canonical.)
fedora != Redhat
but, we all know that in reaity it is used by redhat to test technologies in the real world before intergrating them into its flagship product. Stability in fedora is not as high a priority from Redhats perspective.
To seperate SLED and openSUSE would be equally misleading as to the real worl situation
Well, in the same way that Fedora isn't RHEL, I suppose. But SLED is the raison d'être for OpenSUSE, no matter how much community participants may protest or deny that reality. It makes no sense for OpenSUSe to have a default desktop which is totally unsuitable for SLED.
SLED ultimately provides the direction for OpenSuse (however you want to capitalise that), and what goes into it technology-wise.
Given that Novell's default desktop move a few years ago for SLED, and ultimately OpenSuse, has done zilch for Novell and has probably held them back, zilch for desktop Linux in general and has just labelled them as a Red Hat wannabe then it's a question certainly worth asking given OpenSuse's userbase. There's just no differentiator that will get people, and customers, interested over Red Hat or even Ubuntu. At a time when the haemorrhaging of Netware customers shows no signs of slowing they need to come up with differentiators that will get Windows Server admins interested and actually create a desktop Linux market.
There must also still be a fair few paying customers and a use for KDE at Novell because they still employ some pretty competent KDE people. The complete Gnome switchover at Novell doesn't appear to have happened how some people imagined it a few years ago. We just appear to have got complete stagnation.
Edited 2009-08-04 15:25 UTC
No, they are quite similar. Not equal, but very much related.
"Personally, I think the openSUSE community should take all this a few steps further: ditch GNOME altogether. Forget about it. Stop wasting resources by trying to cover both desktop environments, and go 100% strictly KDE4, and build the best possible KDE experience in the distribution realm today."
Linux is about choice and removing the choice of desktop environments in openSUSE is just crazy. openSUSE may have more KDE users but I bet SLED is around 100% GNOME on desktop/workstation installs.
Actually openSUSE is already wasting developer time supporting KDE becasue Novell already has GNOME devs that do the work. Of course that statement is illogical, as was the one qouted above. Sometimes you have to fight bad logic with bad logic.
Also, Mandriva is considered by some to be the BEST KDE experience in all of linux land AND they manage to support GNOME very well.

Reports in Brazil this afternoon have suggested that Paolo Cannavaro could be set for a move to Fluminense.
Globo Esporte have revealed this Monday that the Rio de Janeiro outfit are likely to move for the out-of-sorts defender.
The centre-back has struggled for playing time this term under new boss Rafa Benitez, and as such, has been angling for a move for some time.
Genoa have been linked with a switch, however, the Brazilian television station believe that the Fluzao will go in for Cannavaro this month.
It is claimed that Renato Gaucho's men will look to bring the veteran in on a one-year loan deal.

What billion dollar heiress doesn't LOVE an all-about-the-glamour beauty launch? Tamara Ecclestone was at the SHOW Beauty event at the John Barrett Salon at Bergdorf Goodman in New York this week and p.s the 29 year-old socialite was joined by Whitney Port.
Random duo? Yes, but that didn't stop Tamara posing with reality TV star (The Hills and The City) Port. The two, both top-to-toe in black looked every inch of fabulous. Whitney went for a black blouse and pleather trousers with a killer pair of lace-up heels whilst Tamara opted for a peplum dress with lace sleeves and gold Louboutins.
Newlyweds Tamara and Jay Rutland tied the knot this summer AND this week the couple announced that they were expecting their first child together. Tamara told Hello! magazine: "Jay loves children and I'm really excited for the next phase of our relationship."
Congrats to the happy couple and hats off to Tamara for pulling off an understated super-flattering ensemble for the SHOW beauty launch Monday night.
Wonder if Whitney is eyeing up the role of godmother? This might be the start of a beautiful friendship, no?
Take a spin through this gallery of pictures all about the Ecclestone beauty...

Woman strip searched, dragged by Jasper cops to holding cell settles civil lawsuit
Updated 11:12 pm, Monday, November 25, 2013
A woman who settled a lawsuit against the City of Jasper after two police officers were caught on video manhandling her hopes the officers will now face criminal charges.
The city and five other defendants - including the two officers - have agreed to pay $75,000 to settle a lawsuit by Keyarika Diggles, who was arrested in May on suspicion of unpaid traffic tickets.
Police station video showed Diggles, 25, being wrestled to the ground by officers Ricky Grissom and Ryan Cunningham, while dispatcher Lindsey Davenport watched. The two officers then dragged her by the leg into a holding cell.
According to a statement by Diggles' attorney, Cade Bernsen, she was left on the floor for hours without medical attention and was subjected to a strip search.
Grissom and Cunningham were fired by City Council shortly after the May 5 incident. Davenport, who apparently conducted the search, was fired later. Bernsen criticized Davenport as not qualified to perform the search.
Part of the reason for the suit, Bernsen said, was to highlight a culture of racism and conspiracy in the city and the department, which he said was achieved.
But the attorney said civil suits are limited in what they can accomplish, and he called on local authorities to pursue criminal charges against the two men.
"There's ample evidence that these men should be charged with assault," he said.
Jasper County District Attorney Steve Hollis did not return calls about whether additional charges were being considered.
Besides the city, the two officers and the dispatcher, the settlement covered Mayor Mike Lout and police Capt. Gerald Hall.
"You have to weigh the value of letting this thing linger on (in court) and putting this thing behind (Diggles)," Bernsen said by phone Monday.
The suit, filed Aug. 29, alleged that Diggles' braces were knocked loose, one of her teeth was chipped and hair was torn from her head in the altercation.
The incident, caught on camera inside the Jasper lockup, began with Diggles on the phone, apparently trying to arrange payment to get out of jail after being arrested at her home when one of the officers disconnected the call.
Diggles and an officer argued before the struggle broke out. Diggles was wrestled and slammed down on a counter before the officers cuffed her and dragged her into an empty detoxification cell.

You have probably already heard about Evernote, one of the most popular cross-platform note taking applications out there. Over the years, Evernote has built quite a reputation for itself as the universal note taking and information management platform of choice, with its free apps available on pretty much every desktop and mobile platform out there.
So when they decided to start addressing niche markets with their contact management and food related apps, I was a bit disappointed – because they were only available on iOS! Having used Evernote and pretty much locked myself in its ecosystem for years now, I wanted to check out how these apps improved on the already robust feature set of the parent app. When Evernote Hello finally came to Android earlier this month, I was quick to jump on the bandwagon and take it for a spin.
Football Manager Handheld 2012 is a football management simulation game for mobile devices. The premise is simple; select and manage a real football (soccer) team from any of the top leagues and steer them to glory.
The game attempts to be as realistic as possible and includes as many aspects of the real world as it can, from over-demanding club owners and contract negotiations to player sales and handling the media. The game did raise a few eyebrows when it was released – most notably due to the relatively high price – so the question remains: is it worth it? Read on for some analysis…
Calendars have been used throughout the ages as a way of organising one's work, social, or religious events into a single view. The dawn of mobile applications meant that this could be taken on the go and provide necessary reminders to get things done at ease. For some, especially business users, the calendar is the most important app on their phone.
Android has a built-in calendar app, and some phone manufacturers, who add their own skin on top of vanilla Android, also provide their own calendar app. However, for those looking for something new, there's also a bunch of alternatives available on Google's Android Market.
In this roundup, we'll be taking a look at a handful of the best looking and most functional calendar replacement apps and discussing which is the best.

I need some advice please. I don't know where else to look for a solution. I have a 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue 3800 V6 3.4L and the cooling fans do not run. The first thing I did was to check the fan to see if they were broken. I ran a fuse jumper wires directly from the battery to the motor terminals. The fans turned on so I know I have good fan. I then check the fuses and replace the fan relays with new relays. This did not fix the problem either. I then replace the engine coolant temperature sensor and ran the car for several minutes to get it up to operating temperature. The fans still will not come on. I disconnected the connector from the temperature sensor while the engine was running and the fans came on A.S.A.P. Why is this and how can I solve my problem?
have the same problem?
