Sounders FC
Sounders hope World Cup fans will embrace MLS
The United States national team's World Cup splash is over, but its ripples will continue to affect Seattle Sounders FC and Major League Soccer in the short, medium and long terms.
For the Sounders, the top immediate issue is the return of national team players Clint Dempsey and DeAndre Yedlin. Coach Sigi Schmid said the details of their returns were still being determined Thursday, but that both will be back by the July 13 home match against Portland. He also left open some chance of availability for Saturday's match at Vancouver.
"Each of their timetables will probably be a little bit different: unique to them and to their situation," Schmid said. "Possibility we might have one — maybe both — for this weekend, but less likely that that's going to happen. … For sure, both will be back for (Portland), and we're working out the time as to when to give them the break. Like I said before, it's a physically demanding tournament, but it's also mentally a very demanding situation, and you need a break."
Over the longer term, the United States' four-game run to the World Cup round of 16 also raised questions about the Sounders' ability to retain Yedlin, the speedy 20-year-old who appeared in the final three matches.
"For sure, he's gotten attention," general manager Adrian Hanauer said. "We're getting lots of phone calls. DeAndre is going to have a lot of opportunities, and there's always the potential for a change of scenery. But we'd like to keep DeAndre here. We would like to keep good, young Americans in our league. But again, there are certain realities to our sport, and this issue comes up for every team on the planet."
Finally, there also is the big question that arises every four years: Will MLS be able to capitalize on the soccer interest apparent from the World Cup television ratings and the thousands of fans who turned out for viewing parties at soccer bars, parks and stadiums?
"We know that there are tens of millions of both passionate and casual soccer fans in this country," Hanauer said. "And we are slowly but surely bringing them into the fold in MLS. But it is going to be a slow and steady race. I've said it a million times: It's going to be an evolution, not a revolution."
Hanauer said World Cups can draw attention to soccer the same way that the Olympics can bring attention to gymnastics: a quick, bright burst without dramatic impact on the popularity of either sport at other times of the year.
Even beyond patriotism and spectacle, the World Cup also presents soccer at its highest level, while MLS ranks several rungs down. Hanauer said the quality of the league is improving, but that also is at a more evolutionary pace that keeps salaries in line with the revenues generated, especially from the new eight-year broadcast-rights deals.
"It is a bit of a chicken-and-egg issue," Hanauer said. "I don't know the answer to if you spend Mexican League money, does that change things completely? If you spend France-type money, does that change things? If you spend England-type money? It's also just not in the cards. It's going to be a slow and steady process."
Still, there are hopes that some fans who have experienced soccer through the World Cup will now direct their attention to MLS.
"The best thing that U.S. soccer fans can do — or people who have grown an interest in this sport — is support your MLS teams and to watch it," Schmid said. "Like I said before, if we can get 10 or 15 percent of those people who tuned in for the first time to stay with us — or that have tuned in before but weren't regular viewers to become regular viewers — that's a huge plus for our sport."

Paddy Cloete - The key to improving performance is not to try harder and train more (October 2016)
Most athletes rely on dedication and old-fashioned hard work to help us achieve our performance goals. We tend to use the same approach when we encounter obstacles in achieving our goals – we try harder which usually means we train longer hours. But what do we do if we discover that our strategy of training harder does not work or actually worsens our performance?
Paddy Cloete - Resilient people are successful people (July 2016)
Setbacks are as part of life as they are part of training and racing. The one attribute that helps us overcome our setbacks is resilience.
Paddy Cloete - Seize the Day (June 2016)
Preparing for a race takes a lot. Time, effort, sacrifice and dedication. But once the training is over and you've put in the hard yards, the way you prepare yourself mentally can make a difference to the way your race plays out. Here a few guidelines to prepare you to seize the day and make the most of what race day throws at you.
Paddy Cloete - Your body will follow where your mind takes you (May 2016)
"You can only do so much with the body, and so much more with the mind." This was a lesson learned by IRONMAN legend Mark Allen that holds true today. Being mentally fit is as important as being physically prepared and IRONMAN can be a constant reminder thereof.
Paddy Cloete - Your mind holds the key to breaking free from a slump (March 2016)
No athlete is at his or her best all the time. There are always peaks and valleys. However, sometimes we seem to get lost in one of these valleys and cannot find our way out. If you are feeling that you are putting in all the time and the effort, you are physically fit, and working on your technique, yet you cannot move your performance to the next level, you may be experiencing a mental slump.
Paddy Cloete - Improve your performance by rebooting your mind (February 2016)
Your mind is the computer, the operating system, which controls your body. However, unlike a computer, your mind does not come with an instruction manual. There is no instruction manual, because you need to install your own programs. It is up to you, which programs you load.
Paddy Cloete - Perseverence - The petrol you need to get yourself to the finish line (November 2015)
Even the most successful people have setbacks. The reason they are successful is the will to overcome setbacks - the will to persevere.
Paddy Cloete - The Springboks' World Cup Campaign: What if the perceived disadvantages are actually advantages? (October 2015)
The challenges we face can determine the way we approach them whether we perceive them as tough or easy.
Paddy Cloete - Did Bolt win or did Gatlin Lose? (September 2015)
Ability is important but often self confidence can be the difference between success or failure.
Paddy Cloete - Listen to your inner cheerleader rather than your critic (August 2015)
Motivation comes from many different sources, but the most important source is yourself. However, as much as we can be our biggest cheerleaders, we can also become our biggest critic.

Church instruments stolen day before concert
A Hempstead church known for its heartfelt second-chance ministry lost nearly all of its musical equipment to burglars early Friday -- one day before a planned gospel concert fundraiser.
The theft left leaders and congregants at Judea United Baptist Church shaken.
"We're really hurt," said church elder Joseph Collins, 43, of Glen Cove. "It's hard to believe someone would do this to a place of worship. Our music means so much to us."
The burglars made off with about $16,000 worth of instruments and audio gear, and also left a path of destruction: breaking down several doors, smashing a window and trashing the pastor's office, church leaders said.
Hempstead police are investigating the break-in, which happened between late Thursday night and 9:30 a.m. Friday.
Church officials believe the thieves entered through a basement door, then went room to room searching for valuables. At one point, they broke down a bathroom door and the door to the audio control room, where they carted off a new sound board worth at least $4,000.
They also smashed open the door to Pastor Lynnwood Deans' office, rifling through shelves and overturning furniture.
"It's painful," Deans said. "All we want to do is help people and yet someone hurt us."
From the main chapel stage, the burglars stole another sound board, two electric pianos worth $3,000 to $4,000 apiece, a pair of amplifiers and assorted audio equipment, he said.
Judea United Baptist, with a 70-member core congregation, was founded in Bayside, Queens, in 1978. The church moved to 83 Greenwich St. in Hempstead about 15 years ago.
Besides its rousing gospel music, the church has been praised for outreach efforts targeting gang members and drug addicts looking to turn their lives around, as well as helping at-risk youths, the hungry and the unemployed.
"This is a major setback for us," Deacon Charles Renfroe, 69, said of the burglary. "It hurts even more because we're a church that reaches out and helps people in the community. We feed people, we help people, we are here for them. So this impacts everyone."
No arrests had been made late Friday night, police said.
Deans suspects someone the church helped in the past may be responsible. "This is a violation of our house of worship," he said. "I take that to heart."
Church leaders vowed to host the long-planned Gospel Supper Club concert as scheduled -- from 3 to 6 p.m. Saturday. They were scrambling Friday night to line up borrowed pianos, amplifiers and sound boards.
About 200 people are expected to attend the show, which will feature several gospel singers and a comedian, Renfroe said. Tickets cost $30, but the proceeds -- previously earmarked for a new sign out front -- will instead help the church recover from the burglary while an insurance claim is pending.
"This is a tough day for us," Deans said. "But it won't deter us. The music will go on."

See the global rankings for that indicator or use the country comparator to compare trends over time.
Download as:
Definition: Crude birth rate indicates the number of live births occurring during the year, per 1,000 population estimated at midyear. Subtracting the crude death rate from the crude birth rate provides the rate of natural increase, which is equal to the rate of population change in the absence of migration.

Golden Globes Beauty: Emma Stone./
The 2011 Golden Globes, Nominee for her role in Easy A, Emma Stone sported a classic updo and a simple peach Calvin Klein dress.
Celebrity makeup artist Mai Quynh Explains How She Created Emma's Red Carpet Look using products from mark.:
"I started by applying mark Calm & Composed Moisturizer all over her skin. Next, I used mark Face Xpert in Honey and applied it with the foundation brush. I put mark Good Riddance Concealer in Light/Medium around her nose and under her eyes and blended it with the concealer brush. I set her foundation with mark Powder Buff in Natural using the powder brush. After the powder is set, I dusted on mark Bronze Pro Powder in Pro Glow using the angled contour face brush. I applied this bronzer to her cheeks, forehead and chin. Then I added a powder blush, I dusted mark Good Glowing Blush in After Glo on her cheeks by using the angled contour face brush."
"I applied I-mark eyehadow in Biscotti using the all over eyeshadow brush to her inner eyelid. Then, using the eyeshadow brush, I applied I-mark eyeshadow in Gioia to her middle and outer eyelid, from the lashline to her crease. I used the angled contour eyeshadow brush to blend Gioia into the crease of the eyelid. As a liner, I applied I-mark eyeshadow in Java along the upper lashline using the hookup eyeliner brush. I smudged Gioia along the bottom lashline using the hookup eyeliner brush. To finish the eyes, I used two coats of mark Lash Splash Mascara in Black."
"I used mark Lipclick Full Color Lipstick in Bare Hug."
To complement Emma's sleek and structured Calvin Klein dress, TRESemmé Celebrity Stylist, Mara Roszak created a classically pretty style as an elegant and chic bun
- Step 1: Apply TRESemmé Fresh Start No Frizz Créme to damp hair
- Step 2: Blow dry using a round brush to sweep hair away from face
- Step 3: To give volume and height, tease crown and spray TRESemmé 24 Hour Root Boost Spray at the root
- Step 4: Smooth hair while keeping height at the crown and secure into a mid-height ponytail
- Step 5: Divide ponytail in half and twist the two halves around each other
- Step 6: Hold the ends firmly and wrap the twisted hair into a bun, pinning as you go
- Step 7: To set the style, finish with TRESemmé TRES Two Extra Hold Hairspray

DRUMMONDVILLE, Que. - Quebec student groups didn't get along well with the province's Liberal government — and now things don't seem too rosy with the ruling Parti Quebecois.
The two sides appear to be at odds over tuition rates in the lead-up to a summit on post-secondary education.
PQ Premier Pauline Marois says she wants to reduce the student debt load, but won't rule out a tuition increase tied to inflation.
But many student groups are pushing for a freeze on tuition rates.
Huge protests erupted last spring over the former Liberal government's planned increases, with thousands of students taking to the streets.
Marois scrapped the increases after the PQ took power in September.
At a PQ delegate meeting in Drummondville, Que. on the weekend, Marois faced some pressure from the youth wing to further reduce tuition rates.
The party's youth wing suggested in a motion that tuition frees should be frozen and eventually eliminated.
PQ leaders shied away from that proposal, however, and the party passed a more general motion on Sunday, saying it was committed to a tuition freeze or anything else that would cut student debt.
Marois said that may include an increase tied to inflation.
That didn't sit well with student leaders.
Martine Desjardins, the head of a university student association, said Marois was playing with words. Desjardins said her group will fight against a tuition increase of any kind at the summit, though she said there were no plans for another student strike yet.
"There are plenty of other ways to ensure success," she said.
Meanwhile, Marois stressed to reporters that her party's ultimate goal remains Quebec independence, particularly since the province's needs aren't being met by the federal government.
"Our goal is to do to the promotion of sovereignty," she said Sunday.
"We do not have any real responses to our needs with the federal government, if you talk about language or investment in the economy."
Quebec's labour minister, Agnes Maltais, is scheduled to meet on Monday with federal Human Resources Minister Diane Finley to discuss Ottawa's reforms to Employment Insurance.
Maltais said the changes will be very damaging to Quebec, which makes up about 40 per cent of the country's seasonal workers.

Skip to comments.EPA to unveil limits on mercury and toxic air pollutants from power plants
Posted on 12/20/2011 1:41:26 PM PST by jazusamo
The Environmental Protection Agency will unveil highly-anticipated regulations on Wednesday aimed at curbing mercury and other toxic air pollutants from power plants.
The agency said Tuesday that EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson will make a significant Clean Air Act announcement Wednesday at the Childrens National Medical Center in Washington DC. A source closely following the issue confirmed to The Hill that the agency will unveil the final mercury and air toxics standards.
Jackson will be joined at the event Wednesday afternoon by public health experts and industry representatives, EPA said. But the agency did not name the officials.
The long-delayed final regulations which would require plant operators to install technology to reduce emissions of mercury and other air toxics have come under fire from industry groups and Republicans. Opponents say the rules will impose a major burden on the economy, cause power plants to shut down and threaten the reliability of the power grid.
The Obama administration has sought to push back on concerns about electric reliability in recent weeks. The Energy Department recently released a report that said the regulations wont cause power outages.
Environmental and clean air groups note that the regulations will impose major public health benefits. EPA says the rules will prevent up 17,000 premature deaths, 11,000 heart attacks and 120,000 asthma attacks annually.
EPA had been ordered to complete the rule Friday under a court-ordered deadline, but delayed public rollout until this week.
Read more about the regulations here.
When are they going to do something about all of the mercury in these damn "pigtail" lights we're being forced into buying and then throwing away when they give up the ghost?
The EPA has turned into the 4th and probably the most powerful branch of our government.
They've been prepping the public for months through all of their surrogate groups. The radio, print and TV ads hyping the supposed danger of mercury and asthma have been relentless. Connect the Dots! It's for the Chillrun!
All part of Obeyme's agenda to destroy the coal industry. (How do ya like me now, UMWA?) He won't be happy until we are like the Third World where the power is on for four hours at night and the hot water is shut off after April 15th.
Environmental and clean air groups note that the regulations will impose major public health benefits. EPA says the rules will prevent up 17,000 premature deaths, 11,000 heart attacks and 120,000 asthma attacks annually.
They love to invent numbers
The EPA has to be eliminated or at least stripped of most of it's regulatory power, this is an agency we would have seen in the old USSR.
Don't those curly fries light bulbs have mercury in them? Maybe the EPA should set some lifetime limits on how many you can break before you face some serious jail time. Sounds good. That would eliminate all breakage. What's not to like about that?
Last Week.
Congress overturns incandescent light bulb ban
December 16, 2011
Absolutely! Citizens unveil their limits on the EPA, and many other un-elected overlords. When will companies wise up and publish the truth about these agencies. They aren't interested in clean anything, but they are interested in fines.
Thanks for linking, I was just going to post it after locating it.
Yep, it's pathetic they waited until the last few days to make the rules public.
What about mercury in broken light bulbs?
I'd like to "unveil" a box of pink slips on all of those hippies down at the EPA.
EPA (Eco Stasi) ping.
I'd love to be at your side handing them out with you.
The enviro nutjobs don't seem to give a dang about that, must be selective enviro-nazism.
(ones derived from the one's back side.)
More bad law from unaccountable civil "servants".
How about taking a bunch of those spiral mercury bulbs. Package them all together so they break easily. Enclose them in a couple of ziplock bags. Box them up, label the box fragile (so the U.S. Post Office will be sure to break them) and send them to our federal legislators offices in D.C.
Enclose a big thank you note.
It's time for the plant owners to submit and obey the law: shut down every single power plant that is not in total compliance with the EPA regulations.

Apple CEO Tim Cook's comments about Facebook at the D10 Conference last week have sparked much speculation about how Facebook might be integrated in Mac OS X and iOS and whether, by teaming up, Facebook and Apple might be able to stop Google+ from gaining any real traction.
Apple has already integrated Twitter directly into iOS 5 and has unveiled plans to offer similar functionality in Mountain Lion. We already know that if you add your Twitter account information in the Mail, Contacts & Calendars system preference, you can receive notification of Twitter direct messages and mentions via the new Notifications Centre, and Share Sheets will let you quickly share items from just about anywhere. Read more about what's coming in our Mountain Lion feature.
A similar alliance between Apple and Facebook could let users easily share things that interest them on their iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
Another place where iOS could benefit from direct Facebook connections is the Camera app. Snapping a photo and then posting it to Facebook marks one spot where the iPhone is repeatedly smoked by Windows Phone - mostly because Windows Phone offers the ability to share photos to Facebook with a single tap.
With better integration, Contacts could be linked with Facebook so that iOS could grab your friends' self-provided phone numbers, email addresses, and photos.
We discuss even more ways that Facebook could be integrated with iOS 6 and Mac OS X here.
If Apple and Facebook team up it could benefit social networking as a whole, according to GigaOM Pro vice president David Card. "A potential Facebook-iOS 6 integration with packages of integrated API sets could help establish standards in identity management, location-based check-ins and other mobile APIs," Card told Ecommerce Times.
"Facebook's app discovery is pretty weak, so I doubt adding Like buttons to iOS apps will be Earth-shattering. Easier photo- and link-sharing are obvious places to start, but unlikely to be market-share shifters," he said.
Card noted that Google would be missing from Apple's social networking comrades. But he suggested that despite fierce competition and reports that Apple no longer offer Google Maps as standard in iOS, Card said that a Facebook-Apple alliance isn't likely to push Google+ any further out the door.
It is expected that Apple will announce iOS 6, an update to iCloud, and possibly new MacBook Pros and Mac Pros at the event next week

Post subject: New version of fixed xorgwizard
Subject description: Makes user choose the appropriate video mode.
Dennis & Dave, please do not proagate the workaround that gets Dennis' laptop to work; it is not appropriate for general use because all video adapters would be treated the same.
I am attaching a new version of the wizard that should fix everyone's problem that has been reported. Instead of trying to substitute for the failing Xvesa results, it is consistent with the current design that lets the user choose a video mode if the wizard cannot determine it. (That's how my ThinkPads are handled, even though they do not hang like the Tecras/Porteges.) The "problem-adapters" file is no longer used, so the "remaster mess" is avoided.
In addition to checking for specific adapters, it looks for segment faults and failure to find the needed info from ddcprobe; that should take care of Mat's case. For Dennis, I included two tests for the 8820 because the "oem:" is always followed by a space; Dennis, please check your ddcprobe output and tell me which format is correct (with or without the space).
Please, would each of you try the new version, xorgwizard2, and give me feedback. Thanks.
(After copying/extracting xorgwizard2 to /usr/sbin, rename it to xorgwizard to have it run during bootup. Otherwise, when bootup hangs, ctrl-c out of the hang and enter xorgwizard2, then xwin.)
File contains both a normal version, xorgwizard2, and a debug version for troubleshooting, xorgwizard2d.
Expect to see a long list of possible video modes to choose from..

Still no luck ;-(
edited the problem-adapters file to include my "oem: Trident CYBER 8620" line
boot from CD
command "puppy pfix=nox"
all OK to #_ prompt
plug-in pen drive then mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/flash
ls /mnt/flash
cp /mnt/flash/proble~2 /etc/X11/problem-adapters
cp /mnt/flash/xorgwi~2 /usr/sbin/xorgwizard2
ran xorgwizard2
"Puppy Video Wizard" window opens - choose Xorg - Enter
one line of pink text appears "Probing video hardware ..."
system hangs with empty black screen and no cursor - wait a minute
[ctrl]c will NOT break out
[ctrl][alt]del will NOT break out

Post subject: Let's work with the latest version -- xorgwizard2
I am sorry you are having trouble testing this fix. So let's all work with the latest version, which is simpler than the others, so less room for errors.
First, I'll explain the logic -- what it checks for -- and then how I test, step by step. Here is the code that should run for your cases (EDIT (11/19/07): corrected to match latest version):
#For some Tecra and Portege laptops (and any others generating a segment fault or edidfail in ddcprobe), avoid Xvesa/other hang by skipping detection and letting the user choose the appropriate video mode. #rerwin begin
if grep -q -F -x 'edidfail
oem: MagicGraph 256 AV 44K PRELIMINARY
oem: Trident CYBER 8820
oem: Trident CYBER 8620' /tmp/ddcprobe.txt;then
else #rerwin end
. . . [logic that hangs]
fi #rerwin
. . .
#if ddcprobe also failed, have to ask monitor type...
if [ "$HORIZSYNC" = "" -o "$VERTREFRESH" = "" ];then #"" if monitor not plug-n-play.
[Displays the long list of all possible safe video modes (A through Z).]
The "grep" statement includes all of the strings (between the ticks) it considers indicative of a problem adapter. Please be sure that your ddcprobe output contains one of those exact strings; I took them from your postings, so please tell me of any typos that crept in.
Given that the code is so simple, if it finds a match it will display the dialog. Therefore the hanging suggests that it is not finding a match.
Now, here are my test steps, avoiding any complications, on my Tecra8000 that has no HD:
1. Extract xorgwizard2 from xorgwizard2.tar.gz to the top level of a USB flash drive, by Menu>Utilities>Xarchive archiver, on some other puppy system.
2. In the subject laptop, insert the flash drive, boot up from the Puppy 3.01 CD, and enter "puppy pfix=ram,nox" at the boot prompt.
3. Select a keyboard layout and <enter>.
4. Enter "mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/flash -t vfat" to mount the flash drive and use long filenames (-t vfat).
5. Enter "cp /mnt/flash/xorgwizard2 /usr/sbin/" to copy the script.
6. Enter "umount /mnt/flash" to unmount the flash drive and avoid any problems caused by its being already mounted.
7. Enter "xorgwizard2" to run the script.
8. Select "Xorg" in the resultant dialog.
9. Wait for the two pink "Probing" lines to come and go -- The wizard dialog beginning with "Automatic probing ... was unsuccessful" should be displayed.
10. Select the second (B) line if your screen resolution is 800x600; the third (C) line if 1024x768, then OK, and OK again.
11. At the resultant prompt, enter "xwin" to start the desktop.
If it still hangs, boot again the same way but at the after-bootup prompt (before step 4 above) enter "ddcprobe" and find the line we are trying to match, to be sure the text is exactly what the script is looking for. For youb's case I rely on ddcprobe including a "Segmentation fault" line in its output, since the "oem:" line is too vague -- it is a copyright notice and does not specify a particular adapter model; so be sure I got the upper/lower cases right, for an exact match. To verify there is only the one xorgwizard2 in the system, enter "which xorgwizard2", that should show either nothing or "/usr/sbin"; anything else suggests the wrong file is being run.
If you do get it to work you can rename the script (in /usr/sbin) to "xorgwizard" to have it run automatically at bootup.
I need to verify it works so I can hand it off to dougal for integration into his version and a puppy release. Thanks for sticking with me on this.

Added pfix=ram,nox to loadlin's options
Boot linux, at prompt :
mkdir /mnt/hda3
mount /dev/hda3 /mnt/hda3 -t vfat (my C: win drive, where I put the downloaded file)
cp /mnt/hda3/xo/xorgwizard2 /usr/sbin
umount /mnt/hda3
xorgwizard2 -- same problem again.
I checked my ddcprobe output and "Segmentation fault" is written ok.
Isn't it normal since I am using the same xorgwizard2 as yesterday ?
Thanks, Mat

Post subject: I need your assistance; I do not have your laptops to test.
Dennis, please don't sit this out. I cannot resolve the dilemma without you. Your remaster technique should now work with the fix, since the file in /etc/X11 is no longer involved. (Go ahead and rename the script to xorgwizard for your remaster, so it will be invoked automatically.)
I want the fix to be as generally applicable as we can make it, which means getting it to detect your all of particular video adapters by matching something in the ddcprobe output.
Just one thing to make clear, I have built the fix on the Puppy 3.01 version of the wizard; so be sure you are all testing with 3.01.
If testing with 3.01 doesn't work, I will have to add debug code to the fix to try to find where the problem is.
My only other suspicion is that maybe the forum is squeezing some space-characters out of the oem: and segment-fault lines in your posts. So if you notice beginning- or trailing spaces or multiple adjacent spaces in the text we are trying to match, please tell me. (And, Dennis, does your ddcprobe "oem:" line have a space after the colon?)
One more time ... Thanks.

I'm using 3.01, and the "Segmentation fault" is the same in the output and the xorgwizard2 file (I will double check). No problem for further testing... Thanks, Mat
EDIT: I've been browsing through the forum... and I read a post about the minimum amount of RAM needed to run Puppy... I have 64mb, could it be the cause of my problem ? (I use loadlin, therefore if I'm not mistaken it loads everything in RAM and I don't use any swap.)

Post subject: Debug version now in the download file.
Mat, thanks for your response. I ran out of explanations; but I think you have found it! 64MB is a bit tight. (If you make the laptop work satisfactorily for you, you might consider adding RAM to speed it up.)
Assuming the laptop has a hard drive, you could boot from the CD and I think that situation creates a swap file wherever it can find space. But avoid having it go into an NTFS partition, as the performance is reportedly impacted. Or make a small (64M-128M) swap partition or file; there are several ways, but we can work on that if you need help.
My news for everyone else not getting the latest version of the fix to work is that I have replaced the download file with one that contains both the latest version and one containing debug messages. They will verify that the fix is actually running and show whether it finds a match or what it is trying to match. (The oem: line may be surrounded by periods (.), to reveal any extra spaces.)
The debug version, xorgwizard2d, will show other lines along with the pink "probing" lines. They will remain on the screen for 15 seconds, so press ctrl-c to keep them longer. If it still hangs, please tell me what messages are displayed. The last should be an oem: line of some sort. If you just wait, the long video-mode list should appear.

Richard . I am using 3.0.1 and I have renamed the file xorgwizard and the xorgwizard box comes up but when I click on xorg then the hang happens as in the original. ddcprobe is
oem: Trident CYBER 8820
I notice on the xorgwizard2 file it is shown as Trident Cyber 8820 I dont know if this is significant. We soldier on Regards Dennis
EDIT I wrote this before your latest post Richard so let me know if the CYBER is significant.I can fix it on the last xorgwizard2 file and try it if you wish..Dennis

Richard Its not what you write,its the way that you write it. I changed the oem line in the original xorgwizard2 to oem: Trident CYBER 8820 and remastered it on the original Puppy Unleashed bootable CD 3.0.1 and the burnt disk worked perfectly on my Toshiba TE 2000. On one oem line there was no gap from the colon plus the CYBER was Cyber and on the next line the gap was there but CYBER was again Cyber. Anyway it is now working flawlessly. It has been a pleasure to do business with you.
The only thing left is to get the Toshiba Modem to work on Puppy?????

Post subject: All resolved! Ready to be integrated.
Thanks, Dennis, for your clarification. Assuming Mat's problem is with low RAM, with enough he can probably run without the fix.
I have uploaded a cleaned-up version of both scripts, ready for more people to try with other laptops.
Dougal, I think this added logic is ready for your consideration to integrate with your development version of xorgwizard.
Thank you to all who have helped me get to this point with the fix.

FRESNO — A man has been sentenced to 50 years in prison after being convicted of pimping a 13-year-old girl in Fresno.
The Fresno Bee reports (http://bit.ly/HqkY6G) 35-year-old Maurice Hunt was sentenced Monday by U. S. District Judge Lawrence O'Neill who says the defendant took the dignity of a young girl.
In August, jurors found Hunt guilty of six felony counts, including sex trafficking and witness tampering. Prosecutors say Hunt forced the 13-year-old runaway to have sex with men and then kept her earnings. When the girl asked to go home, authorities say Hunt beat her.
Hunt represented himself in the case and showed up in a wheelchair, wearing only underwear when he was convicted. He is the first person to be tried in Fresno on federal charges of sex trafficking of a minor.

Talented British developers Introversion have announced that, after a previous deal with a publisher fell through, they're looking for somebody else to publish nuclear war "simulator" Defcon on the Nintendo DS.
The grim, bare-bones PC hit is a perfect fit for the handheld, so the team are justifiably confident of finding somebody. But on the off chance they hit a snag, publishers of the world, know this: this game is a perfect fit for the handheld. Especially if it's released at a budget price and has a decent range of multiplayer options.
If everything goes according to plan - the plan being that Introversion find a publisher for a game that's obviously near-finished - Defcon DS should be out Q3 2009.

Samsung Galaxy S3 is the hottest Andorid phone nowaday. Samsung Galaxy S3 sales breach 20 million in just 100 days! The first generation is introduced in March 2010, which has a 4-inch display. The next generation of the Samsung Galaxy S2 Phone has a 4.3-inch display. Since its release, Galaxy S3 has gained an extra set of eyes on its high performance and similarity with Apple iPhone. Whatever, Galaxy S3 is a great device to watch DVD movies. But how to convert DVD to Galaxy Tab friendly format?
Add an external USB DVD drive? Forget about that. In fact, you can easily rip DVD to Galaxy S3 format with a DVD Ripping program like this Ultimate DVD Converter. It has a vast experience in providing a wide range of multimedia software including Video Converter, DVD Converter, YouTube Downloader, DVD Creator, etc. The Mac DVD Converter lets you spare no effort to convert DVD to Galaxy S3 compatible video without quality loss.
Next, I'll show you how to rip DVD for Samsung Galaxy S3, This step by step guide also work for other Galaxy devices like Galaxy Tab, Galaxy Nexu, Galaxy Note, and so on. Take a few moments to explore this DVD to Galaxy S3 converter program and familiarize yourself with the location of key buttons and menu items before continuing. Knowing the locations of important buttons will help in later instructions.
1. Launch DVD to Galaxy S3 Converter for Mac. To add a DVD, Drag & drop DVD disc icon on the desktop to the program, or go to "File" menu and choose "Load DVD" to locate your DVD (commercial DVD movie or DVD-R) you want to add.Note: The default setting only read main feature of the DVD movie for conversion, without DVD menu and the movie just starts playing right away. If you want to import the whole DVD, go to "Preference" and select "All titles" from "Load Contents in a DVD" dropdown list under Convert tab.
2. Choose a Galaxy S3 Compatible Format. Next, select the video format. Galaxy S3 supports lots of encoder format, like DivX, XviD, MPEG4, H.263, H.264 (even in HD). Here MP4(MPEG4/H264) is recommended. This is an especially important step to transfer your DVD to Galaxy S3 or other Samsung handheld media devices. After clicking the Format icon, go to Common Video to choose MP4. Also select the appropriate settings for your device from the available options. Using the Options button, you can fine-tune your selections to maximize the quality of your rip from DVD to Galaxy S3 formats. For example, choose the resolution to 1080x720 (HD).
3. Start Ripping DVD to Galaxy S3. Click the "Convert" button to start DVD ripping and then you can just go for a cup of coffee, and the conversion may have been finished when you come back.
4. Transfer DVD movies to Galaxy S3. Before transferring the ripped DVD movie files to Galaxy S3, you're highly recommended to preview it on your computer. When it plays well, connect your S3 to computer and it'll be detected as an external drive. Open it, and go to the movie folder to copy and paste the DVD movie files to Samsung Galaxy S3's file system.

Turns out King Gerry is not an absolute monarch. This is a good thing.
When Parliament passed emergency legislation that gave Ministers broad lawmaking powers in the wake of the first Canterbury earthquake back in September 2010, I said this:
[I]t isn't the potential for gross draconian tyranny that may be the real problem. Rather, it is the possibility that the powers might be applied to fix "problems" that really aren't the fault of the earthquake at all. After all, there is a fine line between tweaking a law to rebuild infrastructure and getting rid of an inconvenient legislative barrier to (say) improving the productivity of Canterbury's dairy industry, or allowing a contentious roading work to progress.
Again, I'm not saying Gerry Brownlee (or any other Minister) conciously intends misusing these powers. But once you give a man a hammer, suddenly everything starts to look like a nail. And so it is with Ministers and the power to remake law swiftly and decisively.
Given the High Court's recent overturning of Gerry Brownlee's decision to use his quake-related emergency powers to intervene in Christchurch zoning issues, I'm tempted to say "I told you so". However, were I to do so, I could in turn be accused of misgloating (which is a word Google tells me has never been used before on the internet, so if anyone else wants to deploy it in future they must reference me in a footnote).
Here's why. The powers I (and others) were so worried about were contained in what is called a "Henry VIIIth" provision, which in essence permits a Minister to change the provisions of a statute without having to go through Parliamentary processes. Furthermore, a Minister's decision to make such law changes was (in part) shielded from review by the courts, meaning that the ability to challenge ministerial action was (in part) traduced.
Following the more devastating February 2011 quake, Parliament retained this ministerial power to amend primary statutes (while adding an additional oversight mechanism that I'll come back to) and also expanded the power of the Minister for Earthquake Recovery (i.e. Gerry Brownlee) to change not only primary statutes but also local planning decisions and policies. These latter powers are somewhat complex and scattered through the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Act 2011 (the Act), so I'm not going to through them in detail here.
We could debate whether it was necessary to give the Minister as much power as he got, or whether he should possess it for as long as he will. However, the important point for the moment is that the use of these latter powers is not protected from review by the courts in the same way as is the former. Which brings us to the present case.
Again, its particular circumstances are complex. To put it in a nutshell, there was an ongoing battle over what rules should govern residential developments on land surrounding Christchurch airport. A Regional Policy Statement had attempted to settle the matter, but some aggrieved parties who would be prevented from developing their land under this Statement had challenged it in the Environment Court. So the matter remained in some limbo.
Then the February Earthquake hit, and all of a sudden there are a lot of folk in Christchurch looking for new land on which to build new houses. So, in order to free up land for rebuilding purposes, Gerry Brownlee was convinced by his officials (who in turn were convinced by the local councils) to step in and amend the Regional Policy Statement to fix the stalemate by saying where people can (and cannot) build houses in the airport's vacinity.
All well and good ... except that under the new rules, some of the aggrieved property owners who had been challenging the Statement in the Environment Court still couldn't build houses on their land. And, now that Brownlee had stepped in and imposed the new rules, their appeal to the Court over the previous set of proposed rules was effectively overridden ... because it becomes moot.
Which sent them off to the High Court to have the Minister's decision to intervene judicially reviewed. That is to say, the landowners argued that the Minister had misused the powers granted to him under the Act to settle the zoning dispute, meaning that his decision was of no legal effect. And that is what the court has found ... Gerry Brownlee had taken powers given to him for one reason (to help Canterbury immediately recover from the earthquake) and applied them for another set of reasons (to resolve an ongoing dispute over how Christchurch will develop for the next 40-odd years). What is more, he'd used one set of powers under the Act (which didn't require any public input) when he should have used another (which would have permitted public input). And finally, he'd acted in a way that prevented people having their ongoing cases resolved in the Environment Court when Parliament had not explicitly permitted him to deprive people of their right to access to the courts.
So, pretty much a comprehensive rejection of the basis for Brownlee's actions. But before we leap in to mercilessly attack him, a few points to note.
First of all, the officials advising Brownlee recognised at the time of his intervention that it might be pushing the envelope of his statutory powers. However, they took the view that he may as well "suck it and see", in that the worst that could happen is a court would undo his decision (which would in turn simply put things back to the stalemate they were in).
Second, the Court explicitly accepted that Brownlee thought he was doing the right thing by the region and the earthquake's victims. So it wasn't a case of a Minister doing something for personal or political advantage - rather, it was an overenthusiastic hammer owner mistaking a snail for a nail.
Which might provide some basis for a gloat or two on my part. Except that, as I say, the powers that Brownlee used to make his decision weren't the ones I was writing about back in 2010. In fact, those powers to amend primary legislation appear to have been used in a quite reponsible manner - at least, I haven't seen any evidence that they've been abused (or even stretched in a questionable direction).
(This also means that I/S's claim that this case "points to the need for greater oversight of Brownlee's dictatorial powers. His much-vaunted "oversight board" - which includes his old boss Jenny Shipley - didn't catch this, and it has cost the government a significant sum of money" is slightly off the mark. That "oversight board" (set up under the Act) wouldn't have looked at the use of these powers because it only examines proposals to amend primary legislation, which weren't at issue here.)
Finally, while Brownlee's mistaken decision on this matter has been caught by the courts, we might want to be careful about how far we take this as an effctive check. Running this judicial review case will have cost the applicants into the six-figures ... some of which (but not all) the taxpayer will now have to cover. I suspect there's not many who have been afected by Brownlee's various decisions under the Act that could afford to follow this route.

Update: Emily Sirota's campaign weighs in below.
Two national media outlets are focusing on a little race for the District 1 seat on Denver's school board, calling it the "wildest and weirdest race in 2011."
But is it?
The race pits Emily Sirota against Anne Rowe for the seat to replace term-limited Bruce Hoyt and represent southeastern Denver on the seven-member board.

A University of Alabama student from Holt met with President Barack Obama on Monday inside the Oval Office and talked about issues affecting youth in the U.S.
A University of Alabama student from Holt met with President Barack Obama on Monday inside the Oval Office and talked about issues affecting youth in the U.S.
"Obama looks just like the guy in the pictures," said Tyler Merriweather, a freshman majoring in accounting at the University of Alabama. "He was so down-to-earth and was really supportive of youth development."
Merriweather was named the Boys and Girls Clubs of America Southeast Youth of the Year last fall.
He and three other regional Youth of the Year winners were selected to travel to Washington, D.C., to meet Obama.
"Never in a million years did I think I would win," said Merriweather. "It was a once-in-a-lifetime meeting."
Merriweather said that the president told the group that he plans to focus on several issues that affect youth, such as education and the availability of jobs, in his Feb. 12 State of the Union address.
He said that the questions the teens asked the president during Monday's meeting mainly dealt with Obama's life in the White House.
"Someone asked him 'What's the hardest part of your job,' " Merriweather said. He described Obama's answer as being inspirational and well thought out.
Merriweather said he hopes that he can also inspire young boys and girls to develop aspirations and goals.
"You can never dream too big," he said. "The small guy from Holt was able to go into the Oval Office and meet the president.
"It was so overwhelming and I look forward to sharing this with my family and friends."
Merriweather graduated from Holt High School, where he was senior class president, with a 3.9 grade point average. He has been active in the local Boys & Girls Club, first as a youth and later working as a mentor.
