LinuxQuestions Members Choice Awards: KDE Kleans Up
LinuxQuestions.org has concluded
Told you so : )
Way to go KDE developers and users. I've believed that KDE was approaching 70% of the Linux Desktop market for almost a year now. Except now more people are starting to finally realize it. To say so know is not seen as flame bait anymore.

Re: Told you so : )
If this is true then there must be now be a huge number of people using linux on the desktop, because a guy from ximian seemed to think that they had at least 800000 users (not including those installing from cd etc), and i would guess that substantially more people use standard gnome than ximian gnome (because it isn't included with any distro that i know of) if kde then had more than twice as many users as those 2 combine it would be very impressive. It is a shame that it cannot be tested properly though - most distros include gnome and kde, and surveys are notoriousely unreliable at finding out what (the majority of) people actually use.
Either way, well done to KDE. I use ximian gnome myself but am glad to see progress being made by all the desktops.

Re: Told you so : )
I also switch all the time! it depends on what I should do! if I should do something quick .. then I use gnome becouse it have a almost zero loading time compared to kde. But If I know that I will sit infront of the computer for a while then I use kde most often.
I hope that kde3 fixes the loading times!

Then report this instead of whining about it. Do you think this is a common problem that occurs very often? And that the GNOME developers just sit there and do nothing about it?
And for your information: GNOME has almost never crashed once on my system. KDE crash a little more often (though still significantly less than Windows crashes).

but i have to say that the quality improved lately, though i think they're still not packaging KDE with all the seriousness they should. Bero is doing hard work on this, but he should listen to comments people send him.
if you look for KDE/QT packages for RH, have a look either at http://www.freshrpms.net/ or http://www.nikosoft.net/rpms/ that have a few of them.

Nope, that is just a copy/paste job into linuxformats news section. linuxformat did there own survey a while back, not sure if they released the results yet but you can see here http://linuxformat.co.uk/awards/ that the wuestions are different and it is not the same survey.

By tritone at Wed, 2002/03/13 - 6:00am
Re: newbie see newbie do
I'm nowhere near a newbie; I've tried Gnome several times over the years and always it comes back to the same thing: Gnome is pretty, but KDE seems to have the integration I desire down far better and it looks "more professional."
I have trouble explaining that last part. It's very personal and very circumstantial, but to me KDE feels like it belongs in an office, where Gnome belongs on a home desktop. Maybe it's something to do with the icons, I don't know. I know that you can make the icons smaller, but Gnome's iconsets seem to thrive on being large. KDE has gon the opposite way: their icons default small and look good small. Gnome definately has speed advantages since it doesn't have to deal with the C++ relocations that KDE does, but with glibc2.2.5 and gcc3.0.4 things are really improving on that front.
As far as KDE being icky in the real world I have to disagree. While I don't like kwin at all (I use WindowMaker), the rest of KDE is very very well thought out and seems to work very well with each other. I use OpenOffice over KOffice because it's more stable and works flawlessly with MS Office file formats (reading and writing), but KOffice has some very nice features (including vastly superior printer support and font handling onscreen) -- I wish I could get the features that KOffice and OpenOffice has into one office set; that would really be nice.

Re: newbie see newbie do
I think it would be a better effort to try to put a KDE interface on top of the Open Office code. How feasible would this be and would it take less work than improving KOffice?
By Office user at Wed, 2002/03/13 - 6:00am
KOffice is pretty good. It has got as many features as OpenOffice, but it is quite usable.
When will people stop trying to unify OpenSource projects!!!
(Plus I remind you that OpenOffice is not GPL!)
By Daniel Lemire at Wed, 2002/03/13 - 6:00am
Re: Please!
Well, not really. Think footnotes, think about the number of supported formulae in KSpread, think filters. On the other hand, KOffice has a great foundation and one can only dream of what it could become given enough developers. Seriously, there are maybe 10 developers working on KOffice. They need help.
By KOffice fan at Wed, 2002/03/13 - 6:00am
more releases..
If KOffice would release more often, it would receive more attention. Sure, it may only be one or two new minor features in each component but still it would be appreciated and increase KOffice's exposure.
With a release schedule of 1 release every (off the top of my head) 5 months KOffice barely has any exposure at all. Had the developers chosen to have a minor release planned for KDE3.0 they could have gained a hell of alot of attention! But no... /me shakes head in dismay.
Anyway, best of luck to the KOffice developers. Your work is crucial to KDE sucess.
(don't reply and mention OpenOffice. Yes, it's good. But it doesn't blend in well with KDE. Not to mention that it is SLOW)

Re: newbie see newbie do
:: How feasible would this be
It would take a near complete rewrite and serious kludging of the existing code - the resulting source would be neigh impossible to read.
:: and would it take less work than improving KOffice?
No. KOffice is not that far from OpenOffice. Its biggest problem has been rewriting a core component (trying to find a fast, stable, flexible core for KWord) and printing. It looks like the third time is the charm, and the new KWord core code is solid, and will continue to be supported, as it inherits quite a bit from new Qt stuff, and a solution for printing across KDE has been found.
Repeat it too often, and it starts to sound like a cop-out, but if you've been around KDE long enough you'll hear the phrase "the stuff in CVS is what you're looking for". In KOffice's case, that's pretty accurate. This next release is going to be the equivelent of what MS Works was a few years ago (before they replaced it with Word): a capable suite of applications suitable for nearly all home or small office needs[1]. Unless you're doing mailmerges or serious external data-driven spreadsheets, you'll have what you need. And those will probably arrive in the next version.
[1] Minus one application that probably in hindsight should have been put off - a database. The lucky thing is that now that Qt is data aware with version 3.0, so all of KDE just got much more structured and database capable. A good database app written now will be much cleaner than one written for 2.0, and then rewritten or trashed for 3.0 concepts.
Incidently, one of the biggest red herrings is "MS Office compatability". I've been using KWord with associates using Word. KWord is very capable at importing business style documents (i.e., no clip art sprinkled through the document). I save as RTF, which Word can read easily. In business correspondance, I had to flip to abiword to open only one Word document ever (and that was a document that somebody had thrown a whole bunch of form widgets into like text boxes and dropdowns).
By Evan "JabberWok... at Wed, 2002/03/13 - 6:00am
Re: newbie see newbie do
Having said that, OpenOffice doesn't have a database either.
By KOffice fan at Thu, 2002/03/14 - 6:00am
Re: newbie see newbie do
Yes, and neither does MS Office (it's one of the things added to make MS Office Professional). Having said that, the "classic" office package back when you had a wide varity of choice was a Word Processor, Spreadsheet and Database (and sometimes an Image program). To those are now added a PIM (and light groupware) and Presentation program. Those tools cover the entire needs of 90% of businesses and people, other than a few niche apps - like Point of Sale terminals and Insurance quote programs - both of which could be built upon a good Database app.
And that last reason is why I think a good database app would be nice. But I also hold that the best time to start such an endevour is post-3.0 (which is basically now). And no, I'm not going to do it - for one thing, I don't need it, or know anybody who really does to give feedback, and that's a bad problem when writing a program.

Re: newbie see newbie do
What do you mean, "data-aware"? Qt 3 has a sql module, but I don't understand what data-awareness would mean. (A db lib for KDE 2 was written, but later trashed as you said would happen.)
By Jason Katz-Brown at Fri, 2002/03/15 - 6:00am
Re: newbie see newbie do
I mean just that - the database classes in Qt. There is QDataBrowser, QDataView and so on. Now, I have yet to test it myself, but I have been led to understand that you can attach any widget (such as textboxes, scrollbars, etc) to datasources (through Signals and Slots, I would imagine), rather than collecting all the information, translating and storing it with fixed, explicit code. (Anybody who has used Qt3's database features out there, please comment!)
Regardless, abstration of datasources, XML and SQL in KDE will allow coders to develop at the higher end and add new connectors at the lower end. This will made a KDE db application, like Konqueror, just a framework that loads views and interconnects datasources through some simple scripting. Python anyone?
By Evan "JabberWok... at Fri, 2002/03/15 - 6:00am
Re: newbie see newbie do
I've not actually written any code using Qt3's DB stuff, be we looked at it as a driver layer for Rekall.
We concluded that while its probably fine for use in a dedicated application (eg., the code explicitely knows about the tables), it just does not provide enought functionality to use for a general-purpose database front end (like Rekall or Abcess). In practice, you'd end up using it simply to pass SQL queries to the RDBMS and to get back the results. The classes like QSQLCursor are just too limited. Indeed, as it stands at present, you cannot write a gernal purpose front end without coding server specific information into the front end (ie., the front end needs to know whether the RDBMS is MySQL, Postgres, etc., and act accordingly)
Of course, you might consider this claim a call to arms :))

Re: newbie see newbie do
Personally, I would like to see KWord save natively in XHTML (w/compression option) so that all of its documents could be displayed by _any_ Web browser. This is a superior file format and would actually put us a leg up on MS Word which requires the extra step to save to HTML.
Using XHTML and CSS would be better than using XML since not nearly as many people are familiar with the syntax. Open Office (whose spell checking I have never been able to get working) should be using XHTML instead of XML. Both are extensible but XHTML is more common.
By KHTML at Fri, 2002/03/15 - 6:00am
Re: newbie see newbie do
XHTML is a subset of XML. There are strucutures and data that you would want in a document that XHTML cannot represent. However, using a good transform you could automatically turn an XML Kword file into XHTML. That would be a much cleaner way of doing things.
Keeping the conversion apart from the file format gives you good abstraction and it's a lot easier to maintain. If the XHTML specs change you just change the transform and not the Kword XML file format.
The whole point of XML is that you can easily defined rules to convert it. As for the syntax of XML: it's self descriptive. You read the DTD and you can understand exactly what it represents and how to validate an XML file.
XHTML is just XML with a particular DTD. The world wide web consortium has pages decribing this www.w3c.org and there are plenty of good books on the subject.
CSS is a good idea, keep the display details apart from the content. However CSS is *not* defined using XML and it's syntax is horrible. When it gets replaced with a good XML based definition then things will improve.
By Nick at Fri, 2002/03/15 - 6:00am
Re: newbie see newbie do
That is not the same!
There is a big difference about a file that you could display in any browser and a file that you *could* transform to HTML.
As for KWord's DTD, it is not as self-descriptive as you are assuming it, for example .
As you are telling, XHTML is well described! That is the biggest advantage! New developpers will not need to learn KWord's DTD but could have better documentation. They would only need to learn the private extension of KWord, the rest would be XHTML (modular.)
I had tried to tell that back in 2001, but I did not managed to get my position understood.
As for CSS, it will never be defined in XML, as it purpose is exactly to remove such information from XML or (X)HTML.
By Nicolas Goutte at Fri, 2002/03/15 - 6:00am
Re: newbie see newbie do
Well, for one thing, when XHTML was designed, much of HTML's features were moved to CSS to help bring HTML back to it's original purpose, as a language to describe content in a way that seperates it from page layout. However, KWord, being a DTP, is more suited towards having these in the same unit, and CSS isn't XML anyways. Also, word processing requires control and expandability of many aspects that no version of HTML/CSS has. Some of these things are:
* Fine-grain image placement : Thats in CSS only as of XHTML 1.0
I'm fairly sure that there are other things that should be on this list that I'm forgetting. What all this means is, XHTML is not a suitable general purpose DTP or WP language. Exporting to XHTML/CSS is a good idea for web development (certainly, exporting valid XHTML would be a pleasant change from what Word does) but with a document of any complexity, you're probably going to lose, at the very least, some of your editing capabilities.
Ugh, and using propreitary XHTML extensions is a horrible idea. That would require reimplementing much of what CSS is already designed to do with XHTML, and that would be tantamount to a complete fork of XHTML. At that point, the standardization (which was the point of using XHTML in the first place) goes 'Whoosh!' down the drain.
What would (and IMO should) happen to make something generic and standardized possible is if the various OSS office suite developers were to agree on a generic XML based format. This isn't too likely to happen any time soon, though, as most of the office suites are still working on feature impelementations (Abiword, KOffice) and/or code cleanups (OpenOffice), and changing the core file format would core changes that at this stage in development, would be a complete PITA to implement.
By Carbon at Sat, 2002/03/16 - 6:00am
Re: newbie see newbie do
As you are writting, what you cannot do in XHTML, you can do it in CSS.
The enhanced (former "style") mode of KWord's HTML export filter shows the way.
Frames can be done using
elements and by placing them with CSS. It is the way that I plan to use for KWord's HTML export.
The only thing so far that I have found that do not exist in XHTML are variables. But that would only mean one or two private attributes (which type of variable and which format) in a element.
XHTML modular explicitely allows private definitions and if you do not use them, you have only XHTML. And even if you use them, it does not mean that the result becomes not "displayable" in a browser.
Therefore the problem is not the file format itself.

By Evan "JabberWok... at Sat, 2002/03/16 - 6:00am
Re: newbie see newbie do
The reason given by David Faure was that it did not want to use CSS.
In the meantime, I have also found out that the way how KWord saves and loads its files is not in favour of a change to XHTML + CSS.
Part of the work has to be done any way for KWord's HTML export (enhanced mode). The enhanced mode ("style" in KWord 1.1) writes the files using XHTMl + CSS.

text: Thursday, December 27, 2012 New in the Literature: Squatting as a Clinical Marker of Function After Total Knee Arthroplasty (Am J Phys Med Rehabil. 2013;92(1):53-60.) In patients who have primary unilateral knee arthroplasty, as rehabilitation visits increased there was a direct association to improved interlimb weight-bearing symmetry when squatting to 60 degrees, say authors of an article in American Journal of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation. For this study, the percentage of body weight placed over both limbs during stand and 30- and 60-degree squats in 38 patients (25 women and 13 men) who had primary unilateral knee arthroplasty was determined. An asymmetry index was used as a marker that could discriminate between patients who perceived at least moderate difficulty with functional tasks and those who perceived only slight or no difficulty with functional activities based on the physical function dimension of the Western Ontario McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis index approximately 1 week after surgery. Stepwise regression was conducted to determine whether clinical characteristics predicted weight-bearing asymmetry at discharge. At initial visit (first observation), compared with the uninvolved side, individuals placed significantly less body weight over the involved or operated limb for stand and 30- and 60-degree squats. Results were similar at last rehabilitation visit (second observation). Identifying at least moderate self-reported difficulty with functional tasks based on the receiver operator characteristic curve for the asymmetry index for the stand position was 0.64, whereas for the 30- and 60-degree squats, the area under the curve was 0.81 and 0.89, respectively. At discharge from rehabilitation, there was a moderate to good direct relationship (r = 0.70) between the number of rehabilitation visits completed and the weight-bearing asymmetry index for the 60-degree squat. APTA member Mark D. Rossi, PT, PhD, CSCS, is the article's lead author. APTA members Thomas Eberle, PT, DPT, DMT, FAAOMPT, Denis Brunt, PT, EdD, Marlon Wong, PT, DPT, OCS, MTC, and Matthew Waggoner, PT, DPT, MTC, are coauthors. Comments Nice work!

How does this medication work? What will it do for me?
Furosemide belongs to the class of medications called diuretics. It is used to treat edema (fluid retention) that occurs with congestive heart failure and disorders of the liver, kidney, and lung. It is also used to control mild to moderate high blood pressure. It may be used in combination with other medications to treat more severe high blood pressure.
Furosemide works by increasing the amount of urine produced and excreted, and by removing excessive water (edema) from the body. The tablet form begins to work within an hour of being taken and usually lasts for 4 to 6 hours. The injectable form begins to work within ½ hour and lasts approximately 2 hours.
This medication may be available under multiple brand names and/or in several different forms. Any specific brand name of this medication may not be available in all of the forms or approved for all of the conditions discussed here. As well, some forms of this medication may not be used for all of the conditions discussed here.
Your doctor may have suggested this medication for conditions other than those listed in these drug information articles. If you have not discussed this with your doctor or are not sure why you are taking this medication, speak to your doctor. Do not stop taking this medication without consulting your doctor.
Do not give this medication to anyone else, even if they have the same symptoms as you do. It can be harmful for people to take this medication if their doctor has not prescribed it.
What form(s) does this medication come in?
This medication is available as 20 mg and 40 mg tablets.
How should I use this medication?
The recommended adult starting dose for treating edema is 40 mg to 80 mg. If a satisfactory result occurs within 6 hours, the dose may be decreased or kept the same. If edema continues longer than 6 hours, the dose may be increased by 20 mg to 40 mg.
The recommended adult daily dose of furosemide ranges from 20 mg to 200 mg. Once the effective single dose has been determined, it may be taken 1 to 3 times a day.
When treating hypertension (high blood pressure), the dose of furosemide starts at 20 mg to 40 mg twice a day. Doses of 40 mg twice a day are generally considered the maximum dose to treat high blood pressure. If blood pressure hasn't been reduced enough with this dose, other medications may be added to further reduce blood pressure.
For children, the dose of furosemide used is based on body weight. The recommended dose is up to 2 mg per kilogram of body weight each day, divided into 2 to 4 equal doses.
Many things can affect the dose of medication that a person needs, such as body weight, other medical conditions, and other medications. If your doctor has recommended a dose different from the ones above, do not change the way that you are taking the medication without consulting your doctor.
It is important to take this medication exactly as prescribed by your doctor. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as possible and continue with your regular schedule. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one. If you are not sure what to do after missing a dose, contact your doctor or pharmacist for advice.
Store this medication at room temperature, protect it from light and moisture, and keep it out of the reach of children.
Do not dispose of medications in wastewater (e.g. down the sink or in the toilet) or in household garbage. Ask your pharmacist how to dispose of medications that are no longer needed or have expired.
Who should NOT take this medication?
Do not take furosemide if you:
- are allergic to furosemide or any ingredients of the medication
- are allergic to sulfonamide medications
- are an infant suffering from certain diseases (e.g., Rh incompatibility, familial non-hemolytic jaundice)
- are breast-feeding
- are jaundiced (have yellowing of the skin and eye pigments), especially newborn infants
- are suffering from dehydration
- have complete kidney shutdown
- have extremely low blood levels of sodium or potassium
- have hepatic coma or precoma
- have low blood pressure

- signs of a serious allergic reaction (i.e., abdominal cramps, difficulty breathing, nausea and vomiting, or swelling of the face and throat)
- signs of a severe skin reaction (i.e., rash, blisters, or red splotches on skin, blisters in mouth, eyes, ears, nose, eye irritation, swelling of eyelids, and flu-like symptoms)
Some people may experience side effects other than those listed. Check with your doctor if you notice any symptom that worries you while you are taking this medication.
Are there any other precautions or warnings for this medication?
Before you begin using a medication, be sure to inform your doctor of any medical conditions or allergies you may have, any medications you are taking, whether you are pregnant or breast-feeding, and any other significant facts about your health. These factors may affect how you should use this medication.
Dehydration: Furosemide is a potent diuretic (water pill) which, if given in excessive amounts, can lead to large amounts of urination resulting in dehydration. Symptoms of dehydration include dry mouth, thirst, decreased urination, reduced tearing, and reduced sweating. Make sure you are drinking an adequate amount of water to prevent these symptoms. You may wish to discuss with your doctor what an appropriate fluid intake is for you.
Dementia: Studies have shown that when furosemide is taken with risperidone by people who are over 61 years of age there is an increased rate of death. The combination of these two medications should be avoided.
Diabetes: Furosemide may reduce blood sugar control for people with diabetes. If you have diabetes or are at risk for developing diabetes, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed. You may be advised to increase the number of blood glucose checks that you do each day.
Drowsiness/reduced alertness: When you first start taking furosemide, it may cause drowsiness or dizziness, affecting your ability to drive or operate machinery. Avoid these and other hazardous tasks until you have determined how this medication affects you.
Fluid and electrolyte balance: This medication can affect the levels of electrolytes such as potassium, sodium, magnesium, chloride, and calcium. Your doctor will periodically check to see if these are in balance. Warning signs or symptoms of fluid and electrolyte imbalance include:
- confusion
- drowsiness
- dryness of mouth
- lethargy
- low blood pressure
- muscle pains or cramps
- muscular fatigue
- nausea and vomiting
- racing heartbeat
- restlessness
- seizures
- thirst
- weakness
During long-term treatment with furosemide, a high-potassium diet is recommended. You may also require potassium supplements. Your doctor will monitor your potassium levels through occasional blood tests.
Gout: An acute gout attack may occur in some patients taking furosemide. Symptoms of an acute gout attack include sudden pain, swelling, and stiffness in the affected joint, often the big toe. You may also experience a fever. If this is your first attack, seek medical attention as soon as possible. If you have had gout attacks before, follow your doctor's instructions for dealing with the attack.
Kidney function: This medication works directly on the kidneys and may cause decreased kidney function over time. Kidney disease or reduced kidney function may cause this medication to build up in the body, causing side effects. If you have reduced kidney function, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed.
Liver function: If you have liver disease or reduced liver function, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how their medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed.
Sulfa medications: Furosemide is a sulfonamide derivative. Some people who are allergic to sulfonamides (such as sulpha antibiotics) also experience allergic reactions to furosemide. Before you take furosemide, inform your doctor about any previous adverse reactions you have had to medications, especially to other water pills or sulpha antibiotics. Contact your doctor at once if you experience signs of an allergic reaction, such as skin rash, itching, difficulty breathing, or swelling of the face and throat.
Pregnancy: The effect of taking furosemide on the unborn baby during pregnancy is unknown. This medication should not be used during pregnancy unless the benefits outweigh the risks. If you become pregnant while taking this medication, contact your doctor immediately.
Breast-feeding: Furosemide passes into breast milk and may also partially reduce the amount of breast milk produced. If you are a breast-feeding mother and are taking furosemide, it may affect your baby. Talk to your doctor about whether you should continue breast-feeding.
Seniors: Seniors may be more likely to experience increased side effects from furosemide.
What other drugs could interact with this medication?
There may be an interaction between furosemide and any of the following:
If you are taking any of these medications, speak with your doctor or pharmacist. Depending on your specific circumstances, your doctor may want you to:
- stop taking one of the medications,
- change one of the medications to another,
- change how you are taking one or both of the medications, or
- leave everything as is.
An interaction between two medications does not always mean that you must stop taking one of them. Speak to your doctor about how any drug interactions are being managed or should be managed.Medications other than the ones listed above may interact with this medication. Tell your doctor or prescriber about all prescription, over-the-counter (non-prescription), and herbal medications that you are taking. Also tell them about any supplements you take. Since caffeine, alcohol, the nicotine from cigarettes, or street drugs can affect the action of many medications, you should let your prescriber know if you use them.

'IF you'd like a quieter table for dessert, we can move you," the amiable manager at Jane offers us one night.
Thanks, but no thanks – we'll take what's left of our eardrums home.All-American Jane is a jolly, well-run place. But it inflicts common yuppiedom on hip downtown.
It brings the fun of Upper West Side noiseterias to West Houston Street, complete with "straightforward" American cooking that staggers far off course.
Jane is a squarish barn with columns, two mirrors and a few fuzzy photos of blowing grasses. Banquettes are cloth; tables and chairs, uncushioned hardwood.
It isn't much to look at, but the big front windows remind you it's SoHo. Just avoid being seated near the dreaded Big Round Booths, which might be filled by ossified bozos and bozettes rehearsing for the next "Scream."
The hostesses cheerfully seat you even when your party is "incomplete." Jane justly prides itself on its hospitality, a legacy it owes to Steve Hanson's eatery empire, for which Jane's managing partner, Jeffrey Lefcourt, formerly worked.
But Hanson's places, like Blue Water Grill and even Ruby Foo, manage to edit their dishes so as not to wander all over the map – a rule that Jane tosses to the wind like those grasses on the wall.
Most starters avoid the house hex. "Crispy" East Coast clams ($9) are crispy, and there's enough clam not to make you feel like you're eating crumbs. But they come with bland corn dip and Thai- and Mexican-peppered hot vinegar too piercing to let you taste anything.
Why not serve the clams with the spicy tartar sauce that makes fireworks with irresistibly fresh crab and crawfish fritters ($9)?
When it comes to entrees, chef Glenn Harris could learn from even cheaper Midway, where less confusion makes for a happier meal. Parmesan-crusted veal ($19) was juicy and crisply executed. But the dish broke new ground with iced orzo, a bed of refrigerator-cold pasta weirdly tucked under the veal.
Hearty blossom honey-braised pork ($19) is ambushed by mascarpone polenta that could moonlight as baby food, and too-tart orange parsley salad. And only a blindfolded romp through a salad bar could explain fava bean risotto ($17) with roast eggplant, lemon spinach and the alleged risotto ensnared in sticky truffle oil.
Ice cream and gelato components of $7 and $8 desserts give a good account of themselves. Pastry components, like peach purse and banana bread pudding, do not. For sweets, you're better off strolling to SoHo, alive with laughter at 11 p.m. – music to what's left of your ears.

Doug Hodge, the COO of PIMCO, kicked off Morningstar's ETF Conference Wednesday evening with a measured, thoughtful address that spoke of what we've all learned about the travails of investing in the post-financial-crisis world.
His speech was chock-full of market and economic data that called into question, for example, the traditional teachings of the capital asset pricing model, which he suggested "doesn't quite hold up when it comes to distribution."
Hodge reiterated this point with the not-so-newsy revelation (at least to advisors) that "there are fat tails," that "black swans do exist" and that in the real world "asset prices don't always revert to a mean." The audience—perhaps not all of the 550 registered attendees were in the room—respectfully listened as this representative of the world's largest bond manager argued that for advisors, "active management is required," that they should "diversify your return engines" and "employ downside risk mitigation, because there are fat tails and correlations do change."
He said that "we have much to learn" from the still-newish science of behavioral finance, and urged the audience "to face demographic realities and communicate them to our clients; we have to factor in unanticipated shocks." Most appropriately for this conference, he recommended that advisors should "use ETFs as tools to remain active and agile" in building portfolios, while "never losing sight of our fiduciary responsibilities to our clients."
Then the question and answer session started, and the measured, thoughtful speech was forgotten as several audience members asked Hodge to directly address the government shutdown and its effects on the economy. He was asked about the debt ceiling and whether Social Security recipients would continue to see their benefit checks.
Good-naturedly responding more than once that "this is a tough audience," Hodge patiently answered the questions. At least one of the questioners, I discovered in the reception following the keynote address, was not an advisor at all, but an individual investor. The Morningstar ETF conference has grown over the years—the attendee number this year was up 20% this year, reaching that 550 number, with 35 sponsors, a Morningstar spokesperson told me earlier in the day.
While most of the registrants are advisors of one kind or another, there is a healthy sprinkling of individual investors as well. So perhaps such heartfelt questions about what will happen to retirees from the government shutdown, and somewhat naïve concerns over whether the Social Security trust funds will be raided to pay for other government needs, was not germane to advisors.
It was also a breath of fresh air and suggested what advisors' clients may be worrying about right now. Those clients may be experts in the businesses they own, they may be physicians or dentists or attorneys who are at the top of their professions. They may have inherited their money from well-off parents or spouses, or been successful in the corporate world. They don't know from the efficient frontier, however, or what CAPM is. They probably don't know who Benjamin Graham was. They may believe that there is some secret to investing that Wall Street insiders keep to themselves. Compared to you, they are babes in the investing and retirement planning woods.
You aren't babes in the wood, however. While you may be frustrated by some of your clients and their demands and mismatched expectations, they've put their trust in you and your professionalism and expertise. Even if you don't legally have a fiduciary responsibility, all the advisors I've gotten to know feel that responsibility deeply. So be a fiduciary to your clients, be patient and communicate, especially in troubling times like these when non-fiduciary charlatans are pushing too-good-to-be-true solutions.
What you do for your clients isn't easy and may not always be lucrative. There are no easy answers. There are no shortcuts. There are no "secrets" to investing or retirement planning. You know that. Make sure your clients know it not by browbeating them but by patiently educating them through tough times and good times. Use the lessons of this still young science of behavioral finance, as PIMCO's Hodge suggested, to make it easier for your clients to do the right thing for themselves and their families.
As someone who studied lingua nostra for years, I'm always amused and instructed by the Latin roots of our English words. Fiduciary comes from the Latin word for faithfulness. Your clients have put their faith in you, and you need to be faithful to them.
We—the nation, the profession, your clients and all Americans—will survive this latest embarrassment by our elected officials. Just be sure you're being faithful to your clients now and when the good times return.

I'm in Munich now. Finland is finished with me. At least for now, although I'm sure I'll be back. The Finnish edition of Zen Wrapped in Karma comes out tomorrow. The Finnish title translates as "Zen with Karma and Chocolate Sauce." Apparently the word for karma sounds like the word for caramel -- as it sorta does in English. It's a good title. The photo I've put up is from a photo session in a park in the center of Helsinki for a mag called Libero.
I hit the cities of Turku, Helsinki, Espoo and Jyvaskyla (sorry, I have no idea how to put the dots above the a's). Did more interviews than I can possibly count. The Zen scene in Finland is young and growing fast. It's definitely a tiny minority, but I feel like it's headed somewhere good.
Of course the usual garbage is already going on there as it seems to go on everywhere. People complaining about too much formality. Other people complaining it's not formal enough. No wonder the Complaints Choir got its start in Helsinki! Which is not to say complaining like this is anything unique to Finland. It's just that I met one of the organizers of the Complaints Choir and thought they were cool, so I wanted to give them a little plug.
The formality vs. informality thing is especially funny for me. I think I come out about even in terms of the number of people who think I'm way too casual and the number of people who think I'm much too formal. This makes me think I'm probably doing it right. Basically I wear the robes and do the services when it seems appropriate to the setting or when I just happen to feel like it. It's a waste of time, effort and energy to worry too much about who likes the way I dress and who doesn't. As the old song goes, "You can't please everyone so you'd better please yourself."
Being famous is also a weird, weird, weird thing. Apparently there are already people going thru my writings to find statements to prove their own ideas about me or even -- please don't laugh -- to hold me up as some kind of an authority. Please don't do that. It's only going to bite you on the ass in the end. I'm not the least bit consistent. And nothing I say has any real bearing on anything at all.
It occurred to me recently why I like to trash my own image. It's because you should never do this Zen practice stuff because you think your teacher or the leader of some group is a Great Person. Of course I entered into this because I trusted and respected Tim and Nishijima. Trust is one thing. But to the extent that I tried to put them on a pedestal as perfect people I suffered. Sometimes a lot. Your practice is your own. It doesn't belong to anyone else. Don't give your own power away by tying your practice to your opinions about other people. It has nothing to do with them.
Thanks to everyone in Finland for making my stay there so incredible. Special thanks go to Markus Laitenen for putting it all together, Ilias Biris for getting it started, Anne Rutanen at Basam Books for getting those books out there and making people buy 'em, Mikko and Sike for filming the whole thing, Susanna Kekkonen for fine photos and Thai soup, the folks at the Espoo Cine Festival for screening Cleveland's Screaming! and bazillions of other people who made the whole thing so great!
A much more complete list of people who need to be thanked can be found here.
I'm wasting all the time I have for seeing Munich typing on the damned Internets, so I'm just gonna leave it at that. You ought to go outside and play too!
I'll be in England next. See the link about my tour schedule over to your left for details. All the talks in the UK are open to anyone who wants to attend. Hope to see you there!

We have launched a special edition to epitomise the ultimate thrill of riding an exclusive and ultra-tough carbon spoked wheel – the OBERMAYER GOLD ED.
Any cyclist who has used our OBERMAYER will know the incredible feeling of soaring along like a bird on the wing. This is due to the wheel's outstanding qualities which are without parallel. By making efficient use of carbon fibres and resin, we have created one of the lightest and toughest wheels the world has ever seen in a limited edition of 99 wheels. On the limited edition, our logo is marked in white and the original signature of Heinz Obermayer is displayed in gold on the edge of the rim.
Each rim is marked with a number and can be distinguished by the four golden spokes which form the triangle to the left of the valve hole. The pressure pads, valve extension and hub stickers are black and the lettering on the side stickers is highlighted in gold. These exclusive wheels are also fitted with Titan quick release skewers.
Each of the 99 wheels comes with a specially designed wheel bag. Each buyer will also receive a certificate signed by Heinz Obermayer and the chance to attend a "Heinz Obermayer Day" in the carbon factory. This includes a guided tour and lunch.

There is no hiding the fact that dental implants are expensive. Single tooth dental implant treatments range from $1500 to $7500. Dental implants are "medical devices" implanted into living tissue.
A dental implant has the potential to last a lifetime. When the implant is positioned well, this is a fantastic potential. If the implant is poorly positioned this can begin a horrible nightmare for many years to come. Because the oral cavity is such a small surgical environment as little as a two millimeter error can be the difference between success and failure. The removal of a poorly placed implant is difficult, bone destroying and expensive. Who performs your dental implant treatment directly affects your chances of success. Studies have proven that "experience" does positively affect the outcome of dental implant treatment.
Single Tooth Implant Cost in Williamsburg:
Cost of Additional Procedures:
Multi-Implant Cost:
A quality oriented practitioner will use the least expensive system he or she can find that still routinely yields great results. Most of the time, there is little correlation between consumer cost and quality. Offices base their prices on a variety of factors which include: supply cost, laboratory cost, regional averages, treatment difficulty and ego.

The paper turns to World War II, which is thought of as a traditional war, with clear temporal limits. But this war is harder to place in time than is generally assumed, as the different legal endings to the war span over a period of seven years. The fuzziness in the war's timing affects scholarship on rights and war, as scholars who believe themselves to be writing about the same wartime are not always studying the same years.
The difficulty in confining World War II in time is an illustration of a broader feature of the twentieth century: wartimes bleed into each other, and it is hard to find peace on the twentieth century American timeline. Meanwhile, as all twentieth century wars occurred outside U.S. borders, a feature of American military strategy has sometimes been to increase the engagement of the American people in a war, and at other times to insulate them. Isolation from war enabled the nation to participate in war without most citizens perceiving themselves to be in a wartime. The essay closes with a discussion of the way anxiety about temporality surfaces in contemporary cases relating to Guantanamo detainees.
The paper is part of a larger project that places war at the center of 20th century U.S. law and politics, rather than viewing war as something that had an episodic impact.

Step aside, Internet schemers, the newest imposters on the block are phony phone callers from fake brokerage firms.
The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority in its most recent investor alert warns that old-fashioned cold calls by brokerage firm imposters have caught on as the latest phishing trend.
"Recently, FINRA has received reports that scamsters are posing as employees of at least one well-known brokerage firm to obtain personal information," FINRA reported. "In a new twist to Internet phishing schemes, which use spam email to lure you into revealing everything from Social Security numbers to financial account information, it appears that some fraudsters may be resorting to a time-tested method — the telephone call."
Fraudsters using the scam start by cold-calling potential victims and posing as associates of a well-known brokerage firm. In some cases, people who have received these calls are actually customers of the legitimate brokerage firm, FINRA warns.
The fraudsters claim to offer information about certificates of deposit, citing yields well above the best market rates, according to the FINRA alert. "The imposters say their supervisor will follow up with more details about the CDs, and sometimes send potential victims applications and forms to transfer funds in an effort to collect additional information. Armed with this information, the fraudsters may attempt to steal the person's identity or money from an account."
Investors should never give personal information or authorize a transfer of funds to an unknown person who phones. To determine whether the caller is legitimate, FINRA advises investors to take these steps:
Call the customer service center or compliance office of the firm the caller claims to work for. Use the number on the firm's website or in a publicly available telephone directory. Verify the caller's identity and the legitimacy of the recommended investment.
If you have an account at the firm, check caller ID (if you have it) for the firm's name and telephone number. Be wary of "unavailable" or unfamiliar phone numbers. Keep in mind that sophisticated fraudsters can deliberately falsify a phone number for caller ID purposes (known as "caller ID spoofing"), which makes it all the more important to call the firm directly.
If you believe you're a victim of a scam, act quickly. Contact your financial institution immediately to report a loss or theft of funds through an electronic funds transfer. If you believe your identity has been stolen, follow the Federal Trade Commission's Identity Theft action plan. FINRA also encourages investors to file a complaint using the online Complaint Center or send a tip to FINRA's Office of the Whistleblower.

Wow, am I honored.
I just received an Genea-Blogger Award, the "Ancestor Approved" Award! It was from Jenny Lanctot at Are My Roots Showing Blog. Thank you Jenny.
Ancestor Approved was started by Leslie Ann at Ancestors Lived Here. The rules say that I'm supposed to share 10 things about my ancestors that have surprised, humbled, or enlightened me, and share this award with 10 other bloggers.
There are "rules" about this award. One of the rules is that I must post a list of questions to answer, which I haven't done yet. I will. There other is to Pass the award along to other Genea-Bloggers.
Now, this is a tough, as most of the Genea-bloggers that I follow already have this award. But, here goes and not in any specific order:
Elizabeth Powell Crowe at Crowe's Nest by Eliabeth Powell Crowe. I learned about Libby while listening to another leader in the Blogging community, Dear Myrtle. Libby was a guest on Dear Myrtle's Podcast.

Tammy Altonen Schenekl at Genealogy – It All Starts Somewhere. Her introduction to her blog I can really get into. It says, in part, "The larger my tree gets, the more questions I get; this leads to more research! I love it! That is what genealogy is about – solving mystery after mystery. "
Carol at Reflections from the Fence.. The picture on her Blog has my attention. To be able to pick up and travel around the country … not going to happen, so I will do that here, by sharing my parents travel around the country, but is a much smaller vehicle. Oh, I do read her blog.
Dear Myrtle at DearMYRTLE's Genealogy Blog . Need I say more. I have had the honor of meeting Dear Mytle and Mr. Mrytle, "talk" with them weekly in Second Life, and am currently working on a special project with her.
Gini Webb at Ginisology. What can I say about Gini .. well, because of this blog, Gini and I have found that way are related. But, have you read her introductions to other Genea-Bloggers on the Genea-Blogger website.

Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is part of a growing social movement that encourages urban & rural citizens to share responsibility for the land where their food is grown as well as how their food is produced. In simplest terms,
CSA is a partnership between agricultural producers and consumers.
Members or "shareholders" pay a fee at the beginning of the growing season to meet a farm's operating expenses for the upcoming season. In return, members receive a portion of the farm's produce each week throughout the growing season.

For registered investment advisors, getting into mergers and acquisitions as well as advisor recruiting may be even tougher than starting up a business, but it may be the only way for them to survive, says the Alliance for RIAs (aRIA) in its latest whitepaper.
Looking to help indie advisors stay independent, aRIA on Wednesday released its fourth in a free four-part white paper series, "Realizing Your Ideal Model," which gives advisors tactical information about what their options are for a sustainable model. While many advisors express a desire to grow aggressively, they are often not willing to make the sacrifices and material investment to execute effectively, aRIA asserts.
Independents may be the fastest growing segment of the financial advisory industry, according to aRIA, but the wirehouses are awakening, and the consolidators are driving scale similar to their wirehouse counterparts. Recent thought leadership outlines a bleak future for independent RIAs, so those who want to remain indie have to figure out who they want to model themselves after – and at the end of the day, the ideal model is all about the money.
Look for Best Options if Negotiations Fail
Specifically, those options hinge on something that aRIA calls the Best Alternative to Negotiated Agreement, or BATNA, which is the best option for an advisor if a deal falls through – and advisors shouldn't accept anything less than their BATNA in any negotiation, whether buying or selling, the alliance says.
"This concept is used by sophisticated negotiators when helping a client think through the best alternative to a transaction if negotiations fail and an agreement cannot be reached," says the whitepaper in explaining the concept of BATNA. "Any party that is considering any transaction should understand what their BATNA is and should generally not accept anything worse than BATNA. Advisors considering a transaction or a move to another model should understand what their best alternative is if best laid plans fall through."
An advisor's BATNA could include not going it alone and seeking alternative model options, according to aRIA, which is an alliance of six succesful RIAs, including Brent Brodeski, CEO of Savant Capital; John Burns, principal at Exencial Wealth Management; Ron Carson, CEO of Carson Wealth Management Group; Jeff Concepcion, CEO of Stratos Wealth Planning; Matt Cooper, president of Beacon Pointe Wealth Advisors; and Neal Simon, CEO of Highline Wealth Management.
This spring, aRIA was selected as a winner in Investment Advisor magazine's 2013 IA 25 of movers and shakers in the industry.
For Independents, 'The Time for Talk Is Over'
The white paper series, "Creating Value and Certainty Within Your Independent Advisory Firm," is based on the combined experience and observations of these six RIAs, who collectively manage more than $20 billion of client assets and have demonstrated a track record of strong asset and revenue growth.
Key issues that aRIA identifies as critical to growth and recruiting/M&A include:
• It really is about the money—every deal must be accretive for all sides
• It's a numbers game—advisors will "kiss a lot of frogs" to find the right match
• Accepting any/all comers is not an option—advisors must be selective
• You will have to go selling—no one will hand you books of business
• Your growth story and messaging must be ready for show and tell
"The time for talk is over—if independents want to remain the fastest growing segment of the industry over the next 10 years, then we need to get real about business management and what it takes to execute a growth strategy" said John Furey, principal at Advisor Growth Strategies LLC and managing member of aRIA, in a statement. "At aRIA, we are not afraid to share our success stories and we show advisors how to build a firm to last for generations."
