Post subject: LXDE vs. JWM
Subject description: How much heavier is LXDE than JWM + ROX
How much heavier is LXDE than the JWM + ROX combo of the parent distro? I see that your LXDE derivative has an ISO size of just 137 MB, which is nearly the same as that of Wary Puppy. I was under the impression that LXDE is substantially heavier than JWM + ROX, just as Xfce is substantially heavier than LXDE, and GNOME/KDE is substantially heavier than Xfce.
I am the founder and lead developer of a Linux distro called Swift Linux. It was originally based on antiX Linux, but I have switched it to a Linux Mint Debian Edition base.
Although I haven't tried Lxpup yet (which I will do soon), you have made me consider changing the desktop of Swift Linux from IceWM + ROX pinboard to LXDE. You said that you chose LXDE because it's more user-friendly and more complete out-of-the-box than JWM is. I've been sticking to IceWM + ROX pinboard for Swift Linux simply because it's what antiX Linux uses.
The reason I never considered using LXDE until now is that I perceived it as being substantially heavier than IceWM + ROX pinboard. The biggest challenge for developing Swift Linux isn't RAM but the size of the ISO. One of the main selling points of Swift Linux is that it fits onto a CD. (LMDE is sized around 1.2 GB, so I have a LOT of chopping to do.) If switching to LXDE saves me much of the effort needed to polish IceWM + ROX pinboard while only adding a few MB to the size of the ISO file, the change would be well worth it. (I'm sure I can use the time I save to figure out what other packages I can safely cut.)

Hi Swiftlinuxcreator,
I did try out one of your versions before, when I was distro-hopping .. it was nice, but I prefer good-old puppy
From my experience, you would only notice the difference in performance between LXDE and icewm in really old machines or modern-under-powered ones. When I say, really old, I mean low-end Pentium 3's or under.
If you're talking about "heavy" size-wise, Icewm starts off pretty light, but can get pretty big once you start adding on themes. Openbox themes, in contrast are usually smaller.

Hello !
I am also sorry for my behavior, which is not good either ... I would cut short this mishap, and I hope to resume with a friendly understanding. Surely I had a bad week, and I would not stay on this problem ...
Thanks you.

Aragon, thanks to try it, but above all thank 01Micko for the excellent Slacko base.
swiftlinuxcreator, ISO base (Slacko by 01Micko) is about 115mo. The desktop environment LXDE themes, including libs therefore add about 50MB in ram, either 22mo in compressed ISO. LXDE is obviously heavier than JWM. This is incontestable.
You said that you chose LXDE because it's more user-friendly and more complete out-of-the-box than JWM is.
I do not carry the word of the gospel, LXDE meets my expectations, I find it aesthetically pleasing, openbox themes are many, the bar is easily customizable, several plugins available.
At first, I was under windows, Ubuntu and then Antix Mepis
, so I kept habits like right click on the desktop to change the wallpaper, copy and paste inter-windows, avoiding going through a lot of third party software to change the appearance.
The question really keeping with this kind of topic is: "What habits do I have?"
Many people like to have the menu by right-clicking on the desktop, so I can not really tell you what is best. I put only highlight its specificities. In fact, none is better than the other. They do what they must do to each of us according to our tastes, which is the strength of linux and uniqueness of the human race, all different, and it's great.
Well after I go into a frenzy philosophical ....
There is also a notion of update, Icewm for example is not developed to this day it seems.
I wish you good luck, may the force be with you.
Habits, choice, freedom...

Jejy69, thanks for the information. Exactly what do you add to Puppy Linux in order to create your Lxpup derivative? I understand that LXDE offers a number of different packages but doesn't actually require all of them and has fewer dependencies than Xfce, GNOME, and KDE. I'm suspecting that I can make LXDE more lightweight than most distros' implementations by skimping on the themes and backgrounds. (I've been doing this all along in Swift Linux. I just offer a few of the most basic backgrounds with small file sizes. I also cut out fancy themes that are less readable or take up excessive disk space.)

Well done! I'm staring at LXPup on my Dell Latitude CPi. 300MHz Pentium II CPU, 128mb RAM.
The sfs itself loads almost instantly on bootup, and it slows down a little after, but at desktop it tries to display 800x600 resolution (1024x768 screen -- large pixels are not pretty). xorgwizard fixed that.
Pmount (to apply the patch via USB) takes a very long time (1 minute or more) to load and mount/unmount devices. Pulling up the Puppy shutdown menu (restart x) takes at least 30 second to do its thing.
I'm impressed by the fact that it loads fast, but I am sad that it does not
fast. Still, to boot on this hardware is amazing.

Thanks Jejy69 I am so clumsy when I try to be funny.
I understand that my attempt misfired and I apology too.
I wish you all the best. As you see people like you here
so follow your inner drive and share your visions and
what your up to and hopefully the others share their takes too.
Computing should be fun and forget old grumpy men like Nooby
Nooby is a spoiled child kind of sort so I'm hopeless to satisfy.
I use Google Search on Puppy Forum
not an ideal solution though

Hi Starhawk,
How interesting... you've described
how my computer responds using Slacko - regardless of the desktop/window manager environment - and it is a Dell with a 2.4gig Celeron processor, 512megs of onboard RAM with 1.6gigs of swap! Starts up in a few seconds to the desktop but is excruciatingly slow to get anything else running afterwards to the point where after an hour or so of use ( if I can endure it that is! ) the entire system will freeze up and crash.
It makes no difference whether it's a hard drive or frugal install, nor the kernel version Micko has used. And this has persisted with every version of Slacko for me, plus anything based off from it.
This is why I had asked Jejy if he could port his amazing LXDE desktop system over to Precise-Pup as for some odd reason this machine has never had a problem running anything Debian/Ubuntu-based. Imagine my delight when he returned from his vacation and ported nearly every single one!
Ever since it's been like Christmas for this ol' boy!
So Starhawk, whilst you've had problems being unable to run Jejy's LXpup on that machine I'd be
very curious
to know your results from trying to run his version of "CheckMate Precise" also offered elsewhere in this section ( I believe? ). Between that and his "Mate Precise" desktop - from which I'm making this post now - they are both my "default Puppy desktops" as I switch back and forth between the two quite often throughout my computing session.
Good luck Starhawk!
Proud user of LXpup
3-Headed Dog.

I'll try it. IIRC the thing that threw me with his GNOME-Precise was that somewhere between Slacko and Precise the timezone stuff changed and I couldn't find US-Eastern in the list. Amazing how frustrating little stuff like that can be!
...but I WILL try it.
BTW, the Dell CPi I have is from 1999 -- I'm 99% sure. It has a "Y2K compliant" sticker on the bottom!

Hello !
@ swiftlinuxcreator : Yes, you're right, Lxde requires relatively fewer libs, compared to heavyweights like gnome or KDE.
I installed all Lx applications, libfm, libpng, gvfs, gtk 2.24.10, libimlib, but I don't remember all libraries sorry... :/
After dependencies are different depending on the Puppy, because of his age, and what is already installed.
@ starhawk : follow the advice of Eyes-Only. He gives always judicious councils.
Hello Eyes-Only, how do you do my friend ?
Thank you for advice Starhawk
Those concerns are similar to Starhawk, it's really weird.
So, I will continue to update the version based on Precise.
Precise link is in the first page I believe.
Thanks you Eyes Only

I tried the Precise-puppy version, as posted in thread. I will (shortly) try the newer version from the website.
As before, boot was very fast, desktop very slow. As before, appeared at 800x600 resolution (yuk!) and would not launch xorg with correct (1024x768) resolution.
The adventure ended there.
Thank you for advice Starhawk

Checkmate Puppy, latest version off website...
Text portion of booting very fast. Once it tries to pull up a desktop it makes me wait a while.
Still insists that my monitor is 800x600. I think that is an issue with the neomagic graphics driver; going through xorgwizard works on this version, though, so I was able to fix it.
A note about color. This laptop is OLD. There are places where the image is, well, "dithered" is the term -- lighter pixels alternate with darker pixels to show a color that the screen otherwise could not. This is the laptop at work, not your Puplet, jejy69! ...nevertheless it is mildly annoying and I've not seen it before. Perhaps it is a function of LXDE? I don't know.
LXDE seems to detect the Dell's touchpad as a very slow model, which is the opposite of other Puppies -- usually a swipe across the pad makes the cursor practically leap off the screen with enthusiasm. Here it barely crawls. Again, I do not think that was intentional. It is easily fixed, anyways.
One thing I do not like about these LXDE Puppies is that they seem to reorganize the Puppy Menu a bit. The wizards are thrown in with other setup items, and it does not make sense to me.
While things do load slightly faster on this version of Checkmate, I think my little Dell has more than made its match. Checkmate is not for this system.
One thing that Puppy has taught me well: hardware is only half of the complete picture. The other half is what you do with that hardware -- if you run Puppy, your hardware is suddenly much more capable than it would be with Windows. However, this Dell teaches that even hardware has its limits.
Jejy69, your triumph is that it boots on this system, in an extraordinarily reasonable timeframe. The limitations of the system prevent it from being useful, not anything you have done.

Hi Jejy69,
I have installed LXPup on one of my desktop PCs. It works great. Thanks.
I also tried to use it on my Eeepc 900 today (running from a 8GB SD card). The only problem that I have so far is the wireless connection does not work. In Internet Connection Wizard, it says 'No network interface detected'.
Any advice? TIA.

Lxdepup is based on Slacko 5.3. I think it is the best place to your question. Most likely it is a driver issue. If you have a software version (any) that runs well on the eeePC900, try to find out what WIFI hardware is inside the 900. Atheros ? Ralink ? Broadcom ? Realtek ? In recent puppy linux versions you find this under the "connect" icon on the desktop, where it lists "eht0" for wired ethernet, and "wlan0" for wireless.

A four-month investigation into illegal hunting practices culminated in the arrest of three Sussex County residents last month, DNREC officials announced Friday.
A four-month investigation into illegal hunting practices culminated in the arrest of three Sussex County residents last month, DNREC officials announced Friday.
Laurel residents Kyle Trice, 18, and John Adkins, 20, along with Delmar resident Cody L. Pistoria, 20, were arrested at their respective homes by agents with DNREC's Division of Fish and Wildlife Enforcement on Feb. 24.
Division spokesman Sgt. Gregory Rhodes said his agency identified the threesome after receiving reports from concerned residents and other hunters of illegal activity occurring near Redden State Forest north of Georgetown and off Route 24 outside of Laurel, starting in October.
"Hunters really don't like it when they find out people are committing environmental crimes," he said. "They comply with the law, so when they find out someone is cheating, we usually get some phone calls."
Trice is facing 30 charges, including five counts each of hunting from a motor vehicle, hunting at night, possession of a loaded firearm in a motor vehicle, shooting near a roadway, hunting deer during a closed season and third-degree conspiracy.
He is free on a $15,000 unsecured bond, pending trial.
Adkins is facing 18 charges, including five counts of hunting at night, five counts of hunting deer during a closed season, five counts of third-degree conspiracy and one count each of failure to tag an antlerless deer, failure to register an antlerless deer and butchering an antlerless deer prior to registration.
He is free on a $9,000 unsecured bond, pending trial.
Pistoria was charged with hunting at night and third-degree conspiracy. Rhodes said Pitoria pleaded guilty to hunting at night as was ordered to pay $534 in fines and court costs.

The Guild Wars 2 Facebook Page announces ArenaNet is temporarily curtailing their own sales of Guild Wars 2 to prevent the success of their MMORPG sequel from overwhelming the system (thanks nin), though the game is still being sold by everyone else. Word is: "Effective immediately we have disabled sales via buy.guildwars2.com. To be clear, box and digital sales are still available via our retail partners. We are tracking our concurrency closely while expanding our infrastructure. We'll re-enable first-party digital sales as soon as we feel that we can do so safely." Also, Guildwars2 reddit has word on an exploit in the game (thanks Eurogamer), saying this has resulted in permanent bans, though they are offering amnesty for those who request it:

I like the "swag" and attitude of our defense, and I like Sherman's attitude and aptitude in general, but this constant chattering and then trash talking Tom Brady after the game is a little low rent, IMO. For one thing, the Tom Brady led Patriots have accomplished WAY more than we have at this point in history, and certainly more than Richard Sherman has. Brady is worthy of a little more respect than Sherman gave him here. Another point is that it's not like our defense completely shut them down...we just minimized the damage somewhat. On top of that, this wasn't quite the same as most of our games, where the defense basically had to win it and hope that the offense could score "just enough". The offense had to bail the team out (which it did, fortunately). Brady and company, particularly in the first half, were almost scary good, and it was clear that whatever plan our defense had going into the game wasn't working and had to be modified. For crying out loud, we were down by two touchdowns with 8 minutes left. This could have easily been a loss. Would Richard Sherman have sought out Tom Brady after the game then? Not likely, for the same reason that all those yacky 49ers fans have mysteriously disappeared from all the various discussion boards today.
In my opinion, trash talk is weak sauce. I'm guess I'm okay with it if you're just trying to get into your opponents head during the game, but Sherman hounded Brady afterwards and even tweeted with the pictures after the game...that's unnecessary.

[alt text: "Dear editors of Homeopathy Monthly: I have two small corrections for your July issue. One, it's spelled "echinacea", and two, homeopathic medicines are no better than placebos and your entire magazine is a sham."]
Although I also want to point out that he clearly calls the text that pops up when you hover over a comic to be its "alt-text." Can people please stop giving me a hard time about this now? Even Randall and I agree on this!
Now i've gotten all distracted and forgotten what this comic was about. Let me just have a l-
I guess I should start by pointing out that despite what some people are saying, the "jab" at homeopathy in this comic is completely different from the "jab" at anthropology in the last comic, for a simple reason: Anthropology, unlike homeopathy, is not bullshit. Calling anthro not real science is just being a prick. Mocking homeopathy, on the other hand, is fine, because being a pseudoscience it is in fact the definition of something pretending to be a science that is completely not. So on that count, at least, Randall certainly gets a pass.
That said, making fun of pseudoscience is like shooting very stupid fish in a barrel (fish who are wearing amethyst bracelets to protect themselves from bullets). As far as I know, homeopathy isn't in the news right now, and is as stupid now as it was a decade ago (or inevitably will be a decade from now). As a target for mockery, it strikes me as too easy. For example. (understand that i am linking to that video not to complain about it, but to use it as an example of this being done before, being done easily, and being done better)
But of course, that's not what anyone will remember from this comic. They'll remember the part where the dude makes a diluted semen mixture in an attempt to impregnate the girl. Maybe you read webcomics to see stick figures play with their ejaculate; that would just be another way that you and I are different. So I found that the gross out factor of this comic - in the context, of course, of the dozens of other far-too-much-information xkcds - just a little distressing.
Then there's the caption. Now I don't really care whether homeopathy's point is that you dilute things a lot but the water into which you've diluted them ends up more potent than the original substance, or if homeopathy says that by ingesting an absurdly small, possibly nonexistent amount of a bad substance, you immunize yourself to anything else which could possibly give you the same symptoms as the toxin. (like I said, it is just stupid as hell). Clearly, one makes this comic make sense and one makes the comic make no sense. But the logic of this comic still is pretty dumb: How would belief in homeopathy be genetic? That is silly. No "beliefs" are genetic. They can be passed down from parent to child, but not genetically. I mean, I guess it's to be expected that a webcomic author wouldn't know an actual science like biology. zing!
This is another comic where an aspect of pregnancy particularly burdensome on the woman - in this case, actually being pregnant - is portrayed as being shared equally. The text is "we'll be sure to get pregnant now" as opposed to the more, say, accurate "I'll be sure to get pregnant now" or even "we'll be sure to get me pregnant now." There are other examples - when a woman who has just given birth says something like "sweet! we made a baby!" and maybe some more. I'd love to link you to them but HEY, the search function on the homepage just disappeared! DAMN. That's ok, i guess, it was pretty bad at doing its job. Maybe he'll bring it back soon with a better database of his comics?
OK guys, almost done with this one. Let's get to the alt-text, conveniently reproduced below the comic above. I actually really liked the alt-text. I liked that he found a homeopathy magazine, pointed out that it made an elementary mistake, used that to question its basic grasp of science, and then just came out and completely insulted the whole premise of the magazine. It was well done, I thought. Lucky he found a typo in the July issue of Homeopathy Monthly magazine, I thought! Then people pointed out that Homeopathy Monthly is a sham, not in the sense of "it spreads dangerous lies to people" but in the sense of "it doesn't exist and Randall made it up."
I think that is the definition of a Straw Man, no? (not counting the definition "a man made from straw.") He sets up a fake magazine to act as the proxy for the homeopathy industry, claims it made a dumb typo, uses this to show that the magazine is dumb, and uses that to show that the industry is dumb. But the whole mistake wasn't real! he made it up! So what is the point?
This might be funny if a person had actually made that claim about birds in the gulf of mexico (well, maybe not funny, but i didn't try very hard). But since I made up the quote, who cares?
Guys, can you believe the stupid thing Politician X said about the gulf oil spill? He said that the birds covered in oil should be happy about it, because they can sell the oil for lots of money! That's so stupid. I should use the same logic and spill oil all over Politician X's car, house, family, and legislative district. I'll tell him it's a campaign donation!
And lastly, the baster that the man is holding, the one which will be inserted into the woman, appears to be the same length as the distance from the woman's knee to her foot, and wider than her leg. Discuss.

The last big electronics retailer may be starting to crumble. Best Buy has reported a big loss of $1.7 billion during the first three months of 2012. This compares to $651 million in profit one year ago. To turn things around, and keep shareholders happy, it has announced some rather drastic new plans. The company will axe 50 of its "big box" large stores around the United States in the next year and open up 100 small Best Buy Mobile stores, which will only sell small items, mostly smartphones. In addition, it also plans increase online sales by 13 percent. But the real goal on its horizon is China.
Brian J. Dunn, CEO of Best Buy: "…we intend to strengthen our portfolio of store formats and footprints — closing some big box stores, modifying others to our enhanced Connected Store format, and adding Best Buy Mobile stand-alone locations — all to provide a better shopping environment for our customers across multiple channels while increasing points of presence, and to improve performance and profitability. These changes will also help lower our overall cost structure. We intend to invest some of these cost savings into offering new and improved customer experiences and competitive prices — which will help drive revenue. And, over time, we expect some of the savings will fall to the bottom line. At the same time, we will continue to accelerate our key initiatives — growing connections and services, expanding our digital capabilities and growing our business in China.
Best Buy's goal is to increase its overall number of stores, but decrease its total square footage, as it just doesn't need as much space as it did 10 years ago. Electronics keep getting smaller, after all, and sales of media like DVDs and CDs have been dropping steadily. It will also turn its stores into "Connected Stores," which have a more inviting layout and focus on "connections, services, and multi-channel experience." If you're wondering exactly what a "multi-channel experience" is, you're not alone. The only thing we do know is that by "connected," the company means it will focus on mobile phone sales and other types of service activations like broadband Internet or video services like Best Buy CinemaNow. Instead of selling items, the retailer wants to start selling more subscriptions and services.
China also remains a largely untapped market. Like so many companies, Best Buy hopes it can open stores and make customers of the 1.3 billion potential electronics owners who live there.
The full year report can be read here, but we warn you, it's quite lengthy. In any case, it looks like Best Buy has a tough road ahead. Have you or would you purchase your phone from Best Buy?
Update: Corrected a couple typos. Added line on China

Desktop environment (Italiano)
Template:Article summary start Template:Article summary text Template:Article summary heading Template:Article summary text Template:Article summary heading Template:Article summary wiki Template:Article summary wiki Template:Article summary end
Desktop environments provide a complete graphical user interface (GUI) for a system by bundling together a variety of X clients written using a common widget toolkit and set of libraries.
X Window System
The X Window System provides the foundation for a graphical user interface. Prior to installing a desktop environment, a functional X server installation is required. See Xorg for detailed information.
- X provides the basic framework, or primitives, for building such GUI environments: drawing and moving windows on the screen and interacting with a mouse and keyboard. X does not mandate the user interface — individual client programs known as window managers handle this. As such, the visual styling of X-based environments varies greatly; different programs may present radically different interfaces. X is built as an additional (application) abstraction layer on top of the operating system kernel.
The user is free to configure their GUI environment in any number of ways. Desktop environments simply provide a complete and convenient means of accomplishing this task.
Desktop environments
A desktop environment bundles together a variety of X clients to provide common graphical user interface elements such as icons, windows, toolbars, wallpapers, and desktop widgets. Additionally, most desktop environments include a set of integrated applications and utilities.
Note that users are free to mix-and-match applications from multiple desktop environments. For example, a KDE user may install and run GNOME applications such as the Epiphany web browser, should he/she prefer it over KDE's Konqueror web browser. One drawback of this approach is that many applications provided by desktop environment projects rely heavily upon their DE's respective underlying libraries. As a result, installing applications from a range of desktop environments will require installation of a larger number of dependencies. Users seeking to conserve disk space and avoid software bloat often avoid such mixed environments, or look into lightweight alternatives.
Furthermore, DE-provided applications tend to integrate better with their native environments. Superficially, mixing environments with different widget toolkits will result in visual discrepancies (that is, interfaces will use different icons and widget styles). In terms of user experience, mixed environments may not behave similarly (e.g. single-clicking versus double-clicking icons; drag-and-drop functionality) potentially causing confusion or unexpected behavior.
List of desktop environments
- The Enlightenment desktop shell provides an efficient yet breathtaking window manager based on the Enlightenment Foundation Libraries along with other essential desktop components like a file manager, desktop icons and widgets. It boasts a unprecedented level of theme-ability while still being capable of performing on older hardware or embedded devices.
- The GNOME project provides two things: The GNOME desktop environment, an intuitive and attractive desktop for users, and the GNOME development platform, an extensive framework for building applications that integrate into the rest of the desktop. GNOME is free, usable, accessible, international, developer-friendly, organized, supported, and a community.
- KDE software consists of a large number of individual applications and a desktop workspace as a shell to run these applications. You can run KDE applications just fine on any desktop environment. KDE applications are built to integrate well with your system's components. By using also KDE workspace, you get even better integration of your applications with the working environment while lowering system resource needs.
- The "Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment" is an extremely fast-performing and energy-saving desktop environment. Maintained by an international community of developers, it comes with a beautiful interface, multi-language support, standard keyboard short cuts and additional features like tabbed file browsing. LXDE uses less CPU and less RAM than other environments. It is especially designed for cloud computers with low hardware specifications, such as, netbooks, mobile devices (e.g. MIDs) or older computers.
- ROX is a fast, user friendly desktop which makes extensive use of drag-and-drop. The interface revolves around the file manager, or filer, following the traditional Unix view that 'everything is a file' rather than trying to hide the filesystem beneath start menus, wizards, or druids. The aim is to make a system that is well designed and clearly presented. The ROX style favors using several small programs together instead of creating all-in-one mega-applications.
- Sugar
- The Sugar Learning Platform is a computer environment composed of Activities designed to help children from 5 to 12 years of age learn together through rich-media expression. Sugar is the core component of a worldwide effort to provide every child with the opportunity for a quality education — it is currently used by nearly one-million children worldwide speaking 25 languages in over 40 countries. Sugar provides the means to help people lead fulfilling lives through access to a quality education that is currently missed by so many.
- Xfce
- Xfce embodies the traditional UNIX philosophy of modularity and re-usability. It consists of a number of components that provide the full functionality one can expect of a modern desktop environment. They are packaged separately and you can pick among the available packages to create the optimal personal working environment.
Comparison of desktop environments
This section attempts to draw a comparison between popular desktop environments. Note that first-hand experience is the only effective way to truly evaluate whether a desktop environment best suits your needs.
|Desktop environment
|Widget toolkit
|Window manager
|Terminal emulator
|File manager
|Text editor
|Web browser
|EFM / Entropy / Evidence
|GNOME Terminal
|Kate / KWrite
Resource cost
In terms of system resources, GNOME and KDE are expensive desktop environments. Not only do complete installations consume more disk space than lightweight alternatives (E17, LXDE, and Xfce) but also more CPU and memory resources while in use. This is because GNOME and KDE are relatively full-featured: they provide the most complete and well-integrated environments.
E17, LXDE, and Xfce, on the other hand, are lightweight desktop environments. They are designed to work well on older or lower-power hardware and generally consume fewer system resources while in use. This is achieved by cutting back on extra features (which some would term bloat).
Environment familiarity
Many users describe KDE as more Windows-like and GNOME as more Mac-like. This is a very subjective comparison, since either desktop environment can be customized to emulate the Windows or Mac operating systems. See Is KDE 'more Windows-like' than Gnome? and KDE vs Gnome for more information. (Linux is Not Windows is also an excellent resource.)
Custom environments
Desktop environments represent the simplest means of installing a complete graphical environment. However, users are free to build and customize their graphical environment in any number of ways should none of the popular desktop environments meet their requirements. Generally, building a custom environment involves selection of a suitable Window Manager and a number of Lightweight Applications (a minimalist selection usually includes a terminal emulator, file manager, and text editor).

MILTON, Vt. � Maple syrup production has come a long way from metal buckets hung on trees, but even high-tech operations have had to rely on old-fashioned foot patrols to fix a common problem � leaks.
The Associated Press
MILTON, Vt. � Maple syrup production has come a long way from metal buckets hung on trees, but even high-tech operations have had to rely on old-fashioned foot patrols to fix a common problem � leaks.
The tubes that draw sap from trees straight to sugar houses often get pulled down or bent by falling limbs or chewed by critters, meaning sugar-makers spend hours and sometimes days stomping through snowy woods to find and fix problems � a big time-waster in a sugaring season that lasts just a few weeks.
But now sugar-makers are harnessing new technology to keep the precious sap flowing.
Meadowbrook Maple Syrup in January installed a monitoring system that is already paying off. Designed to help mid-to-large scale syrup producers keep an electronic eye their sap vacuum lines, the Tap Track system consists of solar battery-powered radio units strapped to trees, with each unit monitoring the pressure on a half-dozen lines. The data is transmitted to a computer or smartphone, where it shows up as a map with green dots indicating lines with good sap flow and red dots indicating leaks. Users can even get text messages alerting them to problems.
"I think it's the thing of the future. I really do," owner Donnie Richards said.
In the past, Richards and his crew would have to walk the woods of Milton listening and looking for leaks, which was time-consuming.
"And if you didn't find the leak that day, you didn't get sap off that part of the woods all day long," he said.
Now he uses his iPhone to check the system and can immediately see a leak and when it is repaired.
Richards' operation includes about 5,000 taps, with about 18 miles of tubing spread out over more than 100 acres. The new system costs $1 to $2 per tap, but inventor Jason Gagne said the return on investment can be seen in one season. He said the test site of 20,000 taps in Ontario resulted in a more than 5 percent increase in sap collection, or an extra $15,000.
Gagne, who used to spend days on end patrolling his own sugar bush in Swanton, came up with the idea several years ago, teaming up with Canadian sugar-maker Doug Thompson to develop the product.
The University of Vermont's Proctor Maple Research Center is using a similar remote monitoring system for the first time this season, as the technology becomes more commercially available. Smartrek, produced by a Quebec-based company, also monitors sap lines for leaks and provides the information immediately on a smartphone or tablet.
Nationally, maple syrup production totaled 3.25 million gallons last year. Vermont led with 1.3 million gallons, followed by New York, Maine, Wisconsin, Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Connecticut. Each of those gallons of syrup required sugar-makers to collect 40 gallons of sap.
It takes warm days and cold nights for sap to flow, so the conditions are just right for syrup-making for only about 4 to 6 weeks. And cold weather has already pushed back Vermont's season this year. But Proctor researchers expect the new system to make their operation more efficient and productive. It will also give sugar-makers, who are prone to staying up late to boil sap down to syrup, a few extra hours of sleep, said Brian Stowe, Proctor's sugaring operations manager.
"We find that a lot of sugar-makers get sleep deprived during the season, this again they can take a quick look from their house and then they can go to bed and get some good sleep and not have to worry," Stowe said.

I was not operating this early morning so my spouse and that i, according to typical, intend to invest high quality time with each other performing some action.

I actually experienced a longing for comedy, so we place on �demolition guy.� We had been snuggled up with each other around the sofa, merely taking pleasure in our business in every other�s arms. Following the opening scene of motion, my fingers started to wander, and hers also. I'd my correct arm about her back again, and my correct hand was resting on her breast and still left hand on her still left breast.
Taking a look at me, she starts to kiss me, frivolously moaning as she gets to be aroused and starts to seize my cock.

I don't know about you but I'm not exactly the world's healthiest cook. I do alright but being firmly of the belief that it's the calories that make food taste good I'm not at the front of the line when it comes to low-fat dishes.
However, there are quite a few little things you can do to improve your eating habits that take very little effort—some are just a matter of avoiding certain items at the grocery story others are as easy as buying one product over another. Here are my favorite healthy-cooking tricks that have helped us stay on the straight and narrow.
If they're all surprises to you then maybe just take one or two to tackle and ease into things--just a little change here and a little change there and you'll be on your way to healthier eating in no time.
1. Substitute whole wheat pasta for regular pasta. We eat a lot of noodles. A lot. Probably because pasta is my very favorite thing in the world but the regular old egg noodles, besides being a plain and decent carb, just aren't that great for you. They fill you up but they're rather empty of the good stuff and simply switching to a whole grain pasta is a great way to put some of the healthy fibers and vitamins back in your meal.
The texture is slightly—very slightly—different but certainly not unpleasant. This last year I switched over and buy only whole wheat pasta now which unfortunately is a little more expensive but as pasta is still an inexpensive dish it's not bad at all. If more people would switch then there would be more selection which I would greatly appreciate.
You might also consider using vegetable pastas when appropriate such as spinach, carrot or beet varieties. Every little vitamin helps!
2. Switch to cooking with olive oil whenever possible. You don't have to use it all the time because the burning point of olive oil is low enough to make it an unwise choice occasionally but boy if you can use it in place of vegetable oil why would you ever eat anything else? The flavor is wonderful when used cold and when you cook with it the flavor is so much more subtle that you can be comfortable cooking with the light variety and not have to worry about overpowering your dish with the olive flavor.
3. Stop buying sodas or pop. Instead of the carbonated stuff or even fruit juice drink plain old water when you're thirsty. It satisfies your thirst better than sodas or juice and is just what your body needs—the same can't be said for the bubbly stuff. I'm not the kind of person that says never drink pop again because I kind of like it myself but instead of drinking it as your beverage of choice switch to water and use pop as a treat, a dessert if you will, rather than the liquid to wash down your meal. And if you have kids the switch is even more important for growing bones and teeth. Milk and water, that's all they need.
4. Substitute toasted wheat germ or oatmeal for breadcrumbs. Whenever you have a recipe that calls for bread crumbs use oatmeal or wheat germ and suddenly you've given yourself a boost of vitamins and fiber that white bread can't offer. Throw a handful in your meatloaf or on your cereal, use it in cookies and crumb toppings and you'll be that much closer to healthy eating. I quite like the nuttiness that the toasted wheat germ lends to a dish.
5. Dish your plates away from the table and leave the extras in the kitchen. For me one of the biggest problems of healthy eating is eating too much. I love to eat, love the taste of food and if I've finished everything on my plate only to sit there staring at more of the tasty treats leftover then I'm 95% more likely to take seconds. Serving up the plates in the kitchen then eating in the dining room away from the extras somehow helps me to remember that I really am full and that a second helping of pasta isn't a good idea.
6. Keep dried fruit on hand. Dried fruit is packed full of fiber and vitamins and keeping bags of it around makes it easy to boost the health of a meal with a mere handful of raisins, apricots, cranberries or blueberries. Throw them into cookies or breads, on your cereal or in a sauce for your meat and it gives you a little something more than you wouldn't have had otherwise.
7. Eat one less meal out per week. I don't know how many times you eat out each week but they say that for the average American it's about six meals a week. I'm afraid healthy eating and restaurants just don't go together what with the enormous proportions and heavy fats used in preparation. Even the salads aren't what you'd expect when you look at the calories and fat content. It's so difficult to combat the portion sizes and fat (especially when they taste oh so good) that it's better to just avoid the temptation all together by eating out less frequently. Try cutting out just one meal a week if you can—if you eat lunch out during the work day try bringing a sack lunch once a week to start and see if you can't cut out at least one meal's worth of extra calories and fat. One meal times 52 is a lot of calories . . . and a lot of money.
8. Keep chopped fruit and vegetables on hand. This takes a little time but I've noticed that if I keep a container of sliced carrots, peppers and cucumbers in the fridge along with a steady supply of ranch dressing (they're not completely healthy you know) then people will use them to snack on so much more frequently. Banana chips, apple slices, Clementine oranges and little cans of mandarin oranges are popular too and if I keep them on hand and suggest them to the kids it's funny how often they'll opt for a healthier snack. Especially if I tell them that's all they're going to get, right?
9. Eat a salad as a first course. I've found that if I start my meal with a small salad and a glass of water it does wonders to calm my appetite enough that I don't overindulge on the main course. I keep a container of mixed greens from Costco on hand, throw some sliced cucumbers and tomatoes and olives in there with some crumbled feta and I'm instantly more satisfied. A small cup of meatless soup would also be a good way to keep from tackling a meal from the Starvation Zone.
10. Plan one more meatless meal each week. I'm not suggesting everyone turn vegan, it's not my thing, but less meat is usually better. Not only is meat expensive but it's fatty and heavy—particularly red meat. Try things like soups, sandwiches, salads and pastas where meat isn't the star of the show. If you must have some protein (and we all do need it in one form or another) try throwing in some shrimp or scallops to keep things lighter. Substituting chicken and fish for beef and lamb can make a big difference to your waistline and your cholesterol.

Ten Simple Changes for a More Healthy Diet
I don't know about you but I'm not exactly the world's healthiest cook. I do alright but being firmly of the belief that it's the calories that make food taste good I'm not at the front of the line when it comes to low-fat dishes.

(not 13 things?)
I only wish my kids would eat whole wheat pasta, but with Maya's food issues it's a non-starter for now.
The bread crumb substitution and dishing in the kitchen are very good ideas though.
- Mina Jade said...
Nice tips!
Some others:
start your meals not only with salads but with fruit or vegetable.
Eat cheese only when you finished eating (cheese contains much fat).
As for meat, choose chicken or fish instead of brown meat.
Rice is healthy and contains protein.
Don't drink cola or tea. Green tea and mineral water (tap water) is better.
Use as little salt as you can.
- Edi said...
We have been doing some of the same stuff you mentioned. I've heard people talk about disliking whole-wheat pasta - but we really like it (well I know I do).
We do do fast food about 1x a week but we generally try to order a kids' meal, thereby reducing the calories, fat, and other miscellaneous unhealthy stuff hidden inside.
Breakfast cereal has been a more recent change in our house - got rid of all the high sugar cereals...it was hard (and still is) for the kids to give up their favorite sugar cereal (we did compromise and said they could use their own $ to buy it and eat some as a snack - but not for breakfast...so far they have done that once or twice).
P.S. - I loved Sarah's speech last night!
- Gray Matters said...
Great tips! I have tried most of them but not on a consistent basis. I need to make more of an effort - and I love the bread crumb substitute idea!
- Jennifer said...
I buy the veggie pasta for my 1 year old daughter. She loves mac and cheese and this is a way I can make it healthier for her.
We also recently went meatless for 1 or more nights a week. It is amazing how far 2 dry cups of black beans will go! Let's just say I need to find another meat alternative for the next few weeks. :)
- Deniz said...
Great to hear someone else thinking healthily!
One or two more tips...
Home-made soups are delicious, nutritious and fantastic for using up those odd bits 'n bobs in the fridge. The kids'll love 'inventing' new combinations!
Served with a hunk of granary or wholemeal bread (you don't need spread or butter), they make a good, tasty, filling meal.
And the second, you can cut down on the salt and fats that give a lot of flavour to some foods by going for a low salt/leaner alternative then spicing it up (spices, chillies, herbs or whatever).
Bon apetit.
- Maddy said...
It's curious really.
When we first arrived in the States [and ate out] I was surprised that just about every main meal [entre] came with the option of soup or a salad or both!
I could never understand how people could drink a vat of soup and chomp their way through a field of salad and then eat their entre the size of a family pizza?
I think that's why 'take home' boxes were invented, so foreigners could take their entre home for the next day.
- Flea said...
I already do 2, 3 and 5, but I really like 4. Tried the whole wheat pasta a time or two and haven't yet acquired a taste for it. But I'll try it again for you. :)
Making chili today. Very low fat. Heh. Especially with a big handful of Fritos in the bottom of the bowl, and a dollop of sour cream. Mmmmm!
- Jen said...
Great post. Number 10 though, Shrimp or scallops won't necessarily lighten things up, as shrimp is really, really fat. Delicious, but fatty. I'm not sure about the fat content of scallops.
Taking out the red meat and switching to white might help your waistline, but it won't help your cholesterol.
For a suggestion as an alternative to pop, recently I bought some Crystal Light on the go bags. I added that to some water and splash a bit of Club Soda in there to make it fizzy. Great, tasty alternative to soda. Or you could make a big batch of CL in a pitcher and splash some in there when you serve it. I only buy CL when its on sale BOGO at my grocery store, too.
- Anonymous said...
Lot's of great ideas! Thank you. I love the top photo of the sandwich with sprouts. It looks so yummy!
Maddy-- it is so true,we eat so much in the country. And, if for some strange reason that dinner meal doesn't come with a salad or soup -- watch out! People will talk about being cheated out of part of their meal at that particular resturant for weeks.
Or, maybe, it's just that way here in the Midwest...
Take Care,
- Scribbit said...
Jen--actually shrimp really are low fat and low-calorie as are scallops and most shellfish.
Maybe you're thinking of salmon? It's full of omega 3 oils but not the same as transfats or other bad stuff.
3.5 ounces of cooked shrimp has a little over a gram of fat, one cup is about 60 calories.
- SarahHub said...
I've been trying to make one meatless meal a week. (Key word - trying.) It's much healthier, and you wouldn't believe the impact it has on the environment!
- Doll Clothes Gal said...
Love this post. The only one I would take issue with is the first one - pasta. Whole grain pasta doesn't do it for me I'm afraid.
- One Mom said...
Great ideas and I agree that taking little steps is the way to go - big changes are often met with more resistance and can be harder to maintain.
One thing my mother did and I do also is to keep the sugar bowl empty (the sugar substitutes aren't good for your either!) and limit the sweets and candy. I believe it's the reason I don't have a sweet tooth and neither do my kids. And a sweet tooth can really pack on the lbs not to mention the dental bills!
- Kelly King Anderson said...
Awesome list love #6 also, fill up a gallon jug of water at the start of the day and have it empty by bedtime! You'll feel great
- feefifoto said...
We drink a lot of Mendota sparkling water. Yes, it costs more than drinking free water, but if you add a bit of orange juice or lemonade it tastes as good as soda and makes a great alternative.
- Munchkins and Music said...
I'll have to try out the one less meal a week. Haven't heard that one yet!
- Ashley Paul said...
These are all great tips -- and really easy, too! Finding simple ways to eat healthful meals is so important since everyday life is so busy.
I especially like the idea of only serving one portion and leaving the rest for leftovers, I'm notorious for going back for second-helpings!
- Heather said...
We only eat out about once a month...and I'm still fat. I need to tell that lady who keeps buying me cookies to stop it.
Oh wait, that' me.
- MommyK said...
One thing I did was the take what I thought I wanted at dinner time, then immediately put one third back. So if I took a cup of potatoes I would put 1/3 cup back in the pot. I found I rarely went back for seconds, but I could if I was still hungry.
Also, I wrote about an easy way to take a look at how you are eating using your grocery receipt and 3 highlighters here.
- Mina Jade said...
To eat healthy, eat potato, rice, fruit, raw vegetables, white meat.
Drink at least 2 l water a day.
Eat frequently, at the same time every day, and 5 times a day, not too much food for one meal.
Eat little bread, pasta, sweets, cakes, chocolate :-(
That is all for now, however, I try to remember some other tips.
- Janet said...
Since hubby is a vegetarian, we rarely have meat for dinner unless people come over.
Back when I was working in an office for money (as opposed to the work I do now), a coworker and I ate out for lunch every day (Burger King and Sonic mostly). For one month I drank water instead of Coke for lunch. That was the ONLY lifestyle change I made. I lost 5 pounds.
- tjhirst said...
I've been considering making the switch on pasta without telling my family. Maybe its the right time.
- Anonymous said...
We switched to whole wheat pasta the same way as lowfat milk. Start with 1/4 or 1/5th of the healthier
food or drink in with the regular. As time goes by, you can increase the % of healthier type
Also, another tip- limit or eliminate the processed cheese
singles. The cheese strings or sticks are much healthier.

p.s. Learn to bake, broil or grill
instead of frying.
- MileHighMommy said...
These are great tips! I'm actually going to print these out and post them in my kitchen for a constant reminder! My biggest foe is the soda pop - even diet isn't very healthy!
- angie said...
Great tips. I've found that dishing up in the kitchen is great way to monitor consumption too.
- Daiquiri said...
Hi Michelle- I haven't been to see you in a long time...don't know why, I always love visiting you :)
Those are some great tips. I'm a firm believer in the no meat thing too. We eat lots of meat around here, but I'm finding good substitutions more and more often. And the idea to use wheat germ or oatmeal instead of bread crumbs...brilliant!
Hey, I have a question for you. I saw that you're in the blogflux (blog top sites)directory. I noticed that they have a "total out" statistic...do you know what that is?
I see you have a cookbook for sale - gonna go check that out :)
- Amanda @ www.kiddio.org said...
Great points, Michelle. I especially agree about dropping soda. I've been amazed at how quickly I can lose weight if I just cut out the <1 soda per day I get into the habit of. Instead we keep a pitcher of water with cut up fruit (strawberries, limes, oranges are especially good, but mangos, apples, mint are also great) and about 1T sugar/2 quarts. It's so delicious, it really cuts my soda craving. Now if I could find a way out of my chocolate craving....
Oh, and the "Ronzoni Smart Taste" pasta is the best semi-whole-grain pasta I've found. Whole wheat bread = yummy; ww pasta = not so much.
- Heffalump said...
Wow...We eat out about once a month usually, unless we are visiting family for a weekend, then it might be twice.
I substituted whole wheat Spaghetti for the regular recently and just didn't say anything to anyone about it. No one noticed the difference. If I had said something I am sure they would have complained or said they didn't like the meal.
I have a friend who is working on his PhD in exercise physiology and he said after eating a reasonable first helping of food, wait 20 minutes before you decide if you need seconds. It takes that long for your body to really catch up to the amount of food you ate. If you are still hungry, then you can eat more. But he also said there is a difference between being HUNGRY and just not full. We don't have to eat until we are full, just until we are no longer hungry.
- GrumpyAngel said...
All great ideas! I can see already which ones my family might really struggle with: #3 and #7. maybe I should tackle thsoe first. Thanks for these really helpful tips.
- Michelle said...
I know that I need to follow these healthy tips ,I'd love to lose my baby weight..I could easily eat meatless once a week or twice eating fish is not a problem either.We should try to cut out pop but sometimes it's what I /We want to drink. I'm putting dd in a class once a week and am working out.We'll see how that goes..Have a good day.
- Gabrielle said...
Great post Michelle! I substitute flour bread with Ezekiel bread which is made of sprouted grain as opposed to flour, it is wonderful when toasted and extremely healthy! You can find it in the freezer section of your health food store or grocer. I also love the whole wheat pastas, I am a carnivore and a carbivore :-)
- Anonymous said...
Try Barilla Plus Pasta! IT has FIBER and PROTEIN and OMEGA-3 and it tastes great! The texture is much easier to take than just plain Whole Wheat Pasta, more like regular pasta. And they have it on sale often at WalMart.
- Damselfly said...
Can I substitute oatmeal for breadcrumbs if I have to bread and fry chicken?
We eat more meatless meals now for sure.
- Lydia (The Perfect Pantry) said...
Great suggestions, even for those of us without kids at home (but with grandkids who come to visit!).
- Tiaras & Tantrums said...
love these - now if we can just get whole wheat pasta to TASTE better! My kids hate it!!
I think we have been on this path for a long time!!
- Mandy said...
I really need to work on doing number 8. It sure would make my life a little easier, not to mention healthier!
- MommyTime said...
These are great tips. We do some of these but could afford to do more. One nice drink to try, if you're weaning kids off soda and juice, is flavored seltzer water (or club soda, or fizzy water, or whatever it's called in one's neck of the woods). The kind without ANY sweeteners of any kind. It comes in raspberry, lime, grapefruit, and many other flavors, has no sugar or additives. It's just flavored water, but it does help satisfy that craving for flavor that many kids have if they're used to juices or sodas. Now, off to try to convince the family to go vegetarian one dinner per week.
- Ivory Soap said...
I love number 4! I just made salmon cakes last week and everything in it was SO HEALTHY except the breadcrumbs.
Thank you!
- Amy Mossoff said...
I love these tips. These are things that I can incorporate easily into my shopping and cooking.
- Mike said...
great post. keep up the good work
- George Murphy said...
Great post. I've been eating more and more granola bars with flax in between meals. High in omega-3 and I've also notied higher energy levels. Thanks for the post!
- medical information websites said...
Nice post... :) very helpful, especially to people who didn't realize that they don't eat healthy foods.. they should really read this post to have a healthy life...
- Aeireck said...
I greatly appreciated your great tips. I'm trying to be a vegetarian before because of lack of recipes. But I really love veges. I like the one you stated,salad as the first course. Do you have more recipes on salads? I just got only three recipes on my list.

[alt: The tumbleweed then tried to roll off into the sunset, but due to the Old West's placement north of the subtropical ridge, the prevailing winds were in the wrong direction.]
I was basically at a total loss for this one, not able to come up with anything beyond "this is so boring i can barely stand it." Luckily, the old adage that "every single commenter on xkcdsucks is smarter than Carl" proved true once more, as an Anonymous poster noted that this comic is much improved with the simple reversal of panels 3 and 4.
It's true - as it stand, panels 1 and 2 set up that there is a duel (that's fine), but 3 sets up the idea of a tumbleweed with a gun. What can possibly follow that that would be funny and subvert expectations, we wonder. Then we read panel 4: the tumbleweed shoots them.
The problem is that there's nothing in panel 4 that our minds didn't immediately assume based on panel 3. Far better to have them shot first, and have us wonder who shot them (or did they shoot each other?) and then have the reveal be the wacky twist - it was the tumbleweed all along! the tumbleweed! that mother fucker.
Anyway, that simple reversal isn't quite enough to make the comic right - for example, I think it would be better to have the tumbleweed appear far right in panel 1, and then a little more to the left in panel 2, and delete the awkward "TUMBLE!" sound effect in panel 2. You'd also want to get rid of that weird little vibrating effect on either side of the tumbleweed in what would be the new panel 3, as it draws attention to the surprise too early. Still, these are small changes, and would lead to a far stronger comic.
It's still not a great comic - I mean, it boils down to "hey guys! what if the TUMBLEWEED did it!" - but it's somewhat solid. Much better than the utter bore we have.

"I would think so," Sherman said Wednesday. "They're two of the best in the league. They're two of the best out there right now as individuals. For a tandem they're probably the top tandem out there."
The match-up of White and Jones against Sherman and Brandon Browner will be one of the most intriguing positional battles of the weekend. Which tandem is more effective on Sunday could go a long way in determining who earns the spot in the NFC Championship game. As always, Sherman is eager for the challenge.
"It's going to be a fun match-up for us. It's fun to play against good players. Good against good is always the best kind of game," Sherman said.

Kay Commentary 2012-06-16
The following is a KSCO commentary. Here is Kay Zwerling:
It is believed that Planned Parenthood has submitted an enormous amount of fraudulent claims, according to a lawsuit that alleges the nation's abortion industry giant has a routine practice of submitting repeated false fraudulent and ineligible claims for Medicaid reimbursement.
And, the case is being made by someone who should know – former Planned Parenthood clinic director Abby Johnson who became aware of the organization's billing practices when she was responsible for entering data about individual cases.
Such unprecedented Medicaid fraud must be investigated and prosecuted to determine if Planned Parenthood knowingly committed Medicaid fraud from 2007-2009, totalling many millions of dollars.
Surely Congress should support an in-depth probe to determine the extent of the criminal charges that should be filed.
No matter where anyone stands on abortion, everyone has to agree that Planned Parenthood must obey the law.
Such fraud when substantiated should forever disqualify Planned Parenthood from another penny of taxpayer funds.
Some appropriate federal agency should get to the bottom of this historic deception.
Finally, if indeed this fraud occurred from 2007-2009 – and it is now 2012, why has it taken so long to examine this fraud?
On another subject – as we speak, there is a new live action video that shows Planned Parenthood encouraging gender-selective abortions. That means if the mother is carrying a girl but wants a boy, she can legally abort the girl and I say if we open the door and condone this immoral direction it will be the beginning of we humans interfering with God's wishes.
For KSCO, this is Kay Zwerling.

Based on what I've just seen this Seahawks defense (in particular Richard Sherman and co. in the #LEGIONOFBOOM) is fully capable of being the straw that breaks the camel's back and sending Ryan Tannehill into a full-on shell-shocked David Carr-esque career failure.
The Buffalo Bills were 31st in total defense coming in and handled him thoroughly. I recognize he lacks weapons, but who knows if his confidence will survive long enough for him to get them.
I for one can't wait.
