Just.
Now Chernenko has stated that the financial guarantees have now been received by FIDE, at their Swiss bank account: “The sum of US $935,000 has appeared on the bank’s computer screen in Lausanne “, Vasiliev quotes Chernenko as saying. Here are some of the available details on the match:
Vasiliev’s full story and lengthy interview with Alexander Chernenko has appeared on the Russian chess site ChessPro (link at the bottom of the page). It was translated, in an heroic effort, by Steve Giddins, who has managed to preserve the unique flavour of the original.
We now have confirmation of what ChessPro told you before anybody. The semifinal Candidates match Topalov-Kamsky will take place in Lvov, Ukraine, with a prize fund of US $750,000 (a “clear” $750,000 that is, i.e. after paying the FIDE 20% tax).
"The sum of $ 935 000 has appeared on the bank’s computer screen in Lausanne”, announced the quiet and unexcited voice of Alexander Chernenko, Kamsky’s manager, the initiator and one of the main figures involved in the story. ”Since I first announced to the chess world about the match in Lvov and its record prize fund, naturally I have been worried about how it would look if it did not come off. The last straw was a meeting in the office of Mark Glukhovsky, editor of '64', who told me of Kasparov’s scepticism about the chances of raising as much as $750,000 for a match between Topalov and Kamsky. 'Mark my words, it will all turn out to be a pipe dream, and will vanish into thin air like a soap bubble!'"
Well, I thought Garry is an authority on such maters. If he does not believe it is possible to raise such money for such a match, then probably it will all dissolve into thin air. But it is not a pipe dream! It is not a soap bubble! And it has not dissolved into thin air! It all turns out to be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. And also crystal clear. Like the Star of Africa, a 530 carat diamond.
It is a surprising story, bordering on the truly fantastic. Consequently, I will not leave out a single word of my conversation with this remarkable man called Alexander Chernenko.
Gata Kamsky's manager Alexander Chernenko
Alexander called me from Accra, capital of Ghana. Where he owns …diamond mines. Well, not owns, as such, but he has a concession in some mines.
He called me from the street. In my ear, I could hear a hubbub of barefooted Africans, and could almost smell the scorching African heat…
Chernenko: “I am on my way to the hotel. There it is cooler. It about 45 degrees here…”
Me: “OK, Alexander. Do that. I am also outside and will be home in an hour. Here it is only eight degrees. In the shade,” I added, for some reason.
The phone rang again an hour later. Chernenko: "OK, I am here. I can give you 25 minutes”.
OK, let’s start our conversation. I think we will manage in 25 minutes. So is it really 45 degrees there?
Well, a bit less now, I think. There are storm-clouds in the sky. It’s more like 34. Once the rain starts, the temperature drops by 10-15 degrees, sometimes even 20.
Are you often in Africa?
I have business here, so I’m here quite often.
Can you tell our readers something about your business?
No problem. My first business in Ukraine was book publishing, although I am a journalist by training. When the Soviet Union collapsed, I set up one of the first private publishers. We produced tens of millions of books. Many of them are used to this day in schools and universities in Ukraine. I think this was the most enjoyable part of my business, because I was doing something I really liked.
Sorry, I didn’t ask before. How old are you, and do you have a family?
I am 50, married, with a son aged 26, and a daughter aged 16. I live in Kiev.
Say a few words about your journalistic activities. We are colleagues, I guess?
I worked for the radio station “Svoboda” in Munich. This was both in the days when this was not permitted, and when it was. I reported on economic matters.
Have you been in business a long time?
I started in 1988. For the last seven years I have had a manufacturing business. In Ukraine, we produce granite blocks and bricks, whilst in Africa… well, you know what one does in Africa? Precious and semi-precious stones. But I would rather not go into details.
And what is your connection with chess? Are you just by chance involved in chess management?
It is a surprising story. I grew up in the village of Golubovka, about eight kilometres from the regional centre of Priulki, in Chernigovsky Oblast. The village was pretty basic and there was no practically education, even in agriculture or livestock raising. Anyone who studied an intellectual subject was looked on as a bit crazy. And if he played chess, and at the age of 10-11, read Shakhmaty v SSSR, 64 (Petrosian was editor in those days, later succeeded by Roshal), and chess magazines from Bulgaria and Yugoslavia, well this seemed extremely eccentric to everybody around him…
We are not only colleagues, but compatriots as well. I was born in the city of Priulki, in Chernigovsky Oblast. I assume you are the chessplayer that you were speaking of?
Of course, I meant myself. How it happened, I myself cannot understand. Because there was certainly no prestige in the village attached to chess – rather the opposite, it was almost something shameful. But for some reason, I became interested in chess, and and half of the postman’s bag would be filled with magazines for me.
Excuse me, Alexander, but this was not such a cheap pleasure. Getting deliveries of magazines published in other socialist countries can’t have been cheap by the standards of village life…
The fact is that we earned decent money in the village. We had a large bee-stock, a huge garden, we always had three or four cows, five or six pigs, plus goats, sheep, ducks, chickens… In a year our family (my father, me and my grandmother) made between eight and ten thousand Soviet roubles.
What did your father do for a living?
He was a vet. After the war, he finished at the veterinary institute in Western Ukraine. He was the vet in the region, then for the oblast, and finally for the state farm. But he did not get any further for the simple reason that he was not a party member. Every five years he would be offered promotion, but on condition that he joined the party. He refused. He was a surprisingly well educated, intelligent man, who understood that it was not good for me to live my entire life in the village, that I could realise my potential away from there. In general, we did not have any financial problems in our family, but the most important thing was that my father understood me.
Did you play chess with your father?
My father never played chess, but he knew all about it. As he did about sport in general.
So whom did you play with?
I played by correspondence. Many of the villagers smiled at this pastime – how can you play chess by post?
What ranking did you reach?
A fairly serious level of correspondence chess – I played in the Ukrainian Championship. I got to candidate master. Before the Soviet Union collapsed, I reached master level at correspondence chess. But I never got the title, because after the collapse, there were no tournaments for two to three years. But I can say with confidence that I am a strong candidate master.
And how did your chess fortunes develop after that?
There weren’t really any such “chess fortunes” for me. What I have already told you is virtually it. I played chess at university, was top board of the faculty team, but by then chess was already just a relaxation.
Which university was that?
Kiev. I graduated from Kiev State University. I got in, despite there being 36 applicants for every place. Nobody believed that I would get in, being from a virtually unknown village, and not having the contacts or the money. But I got in.
At university you continued to follow chess?
Yes. I followed all that was going on, and knew all that one could know from open sources. Of course, I looked at the games of the top players, usually at night. I have one of the best chess libraries, not only in the Ukraine, but possibly in the whole former Soviet Union.
How many chess books do you have?
(Sighs) I am not sure exactly, but it is in the thousands. Probably about four thousand.
Where are they, in your flat in Kiev?
Not all of them, of course. Some are at my dacha. Some are archived, some are even in secure storage – the older books, from the 20s and 30, some of the foreign books.
Who were your favourites amongst the great players?
Most of all I like a positional style of chess, and I love the play of Tigran Vartanovich Petrosian. I also have a deep respect for Sammy Reshevsky, and I have great sympathy with Oleg Romanishin, a player with so many non-standard but classy positional ideas. And I worship Paul Keres. The best positional games of Anatoly Karpov are grandiose indeed. And I cannot express how much I love Tal’s positional games, those where he beats his opponents not by out-calculating them, but when he makes his combinations from a sound positional basis.
How did you come to be associated with Gata?
It came about that I was a dissident. Working for Radio Svoboda, and teaching in the institute led me to have problems with the authorities. And therefore, when Gata, for certain reasons, did not become world champion in 1996, and when he then, again for various reasons (which I do not wish to go into) left chess, I was terribly upset, because I had seen the quality of some of his games at that time. When he returned to chess two years ago, I read many interviews with him (including some of yours). It was clear that he was playing with a lot of old “baggage”, yet was still able to compete with top ten players. I decided I had to help him. During the Tal Memorial tournament, I was in Moscow on business, and I approached Gata and said that I wanted to help him with organisational and financial matters. He replied that he could not decide this for himself, on his own, but would need to talk to his family. In tbe new year, I spoke to his father, Rustam, and we agreed the details.
Alexander, what is your view of Lvov grandmaster, Vassily Ivanchuk?
I only know that, whilst here in Accra, I have looked at the games he has been winning in Sofia. Beautiful! One cannot but be amazed by him – he has an encyclopaedic knowledge of chess. He lives in the white and black squares. It is just a shame that so far, he has not been able to fully realise his fantastic potential, because he certainly has the talent of a champion.
Agreed, I also think that in talent, Ivanchuk is not less endowed than Kramnik, Anand, Topalov, etc. But he just lacks pragmatism. Now that people have heard of your success in arranging such big money for the Topalov-Kamsky match, many chess lovers, even those outside Ukraine, will say “So, they can raise all this money for two foreigners, but here in Lvov we have the genius Ivanchuk, and nobody wants to help him get a match for the world championship…”
My reply may seem paradoxical. I did not do this only to support Gata, but also to return to Lvov its great name in the chess world. This is the city that gave the world Leonid Stein, Victor Kart, Alexander Belyavsky, Adrian Mikhalchishin, Oleg Romanishin, Marta Litinskaya, Zu Lelchuk, not to mention Vassily Ivanchuk. I hope that chess events will bring Lvov before the eyes of the world. And that the world will see: Ukraine can hold such an event at a top level. That Ukraine can hold the Euro-2012 [the 2012 European Football Championship] at such a level. I want the match to be in Lvov because it is the city of chess, not just of the past and present, but also of the future. And I also want the match here because at this moment, a big battle is going on to save the city’s legendary chess club.
The club on market square? That was where I first came across Victor Kart’s pupils, Romanishin, Belyavsky and Mikhalchishin, as well as Victor Emanuleovich himself…That was many, many years ago.
Yes, absolutely right, it is the club on Market Square. They are trying to take it away from the chessplayers, which I consider absolutely shameful. Two weeks ago, in Lvov, I discussed the issue with Oleg Mikhailovich Romanishin. I proposed that he head the organising committee for the Topalov-Kamsky match, because this would be supporting not only Kamsky, but also the city of Lvov and the whole chess community of Ukraine. As they say in Ukraine, “dead bees don’t buzz”. When there is some progress, something going on, only then can we restore the great chess traditions of this unique city.
Why was there all the trouble surrounding the bank guarantees?
Briefly, in order to give such bank guarantees, one has to put together a whole load of documents. Just when these were ready, I received a letter from FIDE Vice-President Makropoulos, saying that we had to provide not just bank guarantees, but that we had to transfer the whole prize fund to the FIDE bank account – $935,000 in all. This is also quite normal, but it caused us a lot of extra administrative problems. In order to do this one must explain to one’s bank the purpose of the transfer, and must provide supporting contracts. But there are no contracts yet for this match, they have not been signed. So, all these technical and technological issues took a lot of time, with checks, questions, the account at one point being blocked by the bank, then finally re-opened and so on. It is a long-winded and painful process.
Finally, this “painful process” has been completed. And all obstacles to the match have been removed. What are the immediate tasks now for the manager of challenger, Gata Kamsky?
Now I have to help Gata organise some serious preparation for the match.
With these words, spoken in a serious and pre-occupied tone, the newest figure amongst the managers of top-level chess brought our conversation to an end. Our conversation took longer than the planned 25 minutes. But I hope that there are still enough diamonds left in Africa… | https://en.chessbase.com/post/topalov-vs-kamsky-and-the-remarkable-mr-chernenko | 2018-10-15T17:05:43 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |
Ten governors may be dismissed this week
The candidates for the long-term resignation include heads of the Ivanovo, Samara, Nizhny Novgorod, Murmansk, Novosibirsk, and Omsk regions, the Nenets Autonomous District (NAO), the Krasnoyarsk and Altai regions, as well as several subjects in the North Caucasus.
A number of governors of the Russian regions may be removed by the beginning of this week. This is reported by Kommersant citing a source close to the Presidential Administration. The replacement of the heads of the Moscow region and St. Petersburg is also being discussed on the sidelines of the government and administration, however, there has been no president's decision on this matter yet. At the same time, as it became known, Governor of the Vladimir region Svetlana Orlova has recently met with the president, where she has been assured that the resignations would not affect her.
To note, it has become a prevalent tradition to dismiss or appoint region heads en masse. For example, in February this year, it was announced about the appointment of acting heads of the Novgorod, Ryazan, and Perm regions, as well as Karelia and Buryatia within a few days.
According to the publication’s source, the current possible replacement of regional leaders can be linked to the regional campaign of 2017, which was recognized successful, as well as to the fact there will be no time for governors’ replacement in the future – the Presidential Administration will be closely involved in the presidential election campaign beginning in December. According to Head of the Peterburgskaya Politika Fund Mikhail Vinogradov, regions for the replacement of their leaders are chosen on the principle of large electoral territories, or with consolidated voting. As a result, the change of current governors will reduce the severity of conflicts and give people hope, which will positively affect the results of the presidential vote, Vinogradov believes.
The publication notes that the governors and their press secretaries disprove the upcoming resignations (like they always do).
"My mandate expires in September 2019. My team and I are working in normal mode. Rumor always has it, but it does not concern me," Murmansk Governor Marina Kovtun commented the information via Twitter. Valery Shantsev, the Nizhny Novgorod governor, said that he was "not planning to leave yet." The office of Governor of the Krasnoyarsk region Victor Tolokonsky reported that the governor was working in normal mode. It also added that despite the media discussing his trip to Moscow, he had been in the region working in the residence.
Head of the Nenets Autonomous District Igor Koshin is also working in normal mode, according to his press secretary. A representative of Omsk region Governor Viktor Nazarov called these messages "some sort of bogus stories."
At the same time, as reported by Kommersant’s sources, the resignation of Nikolay Merkushkin from the post of Governor of the Samara region may actually happen this week owing to "health reasons.". | https://en.crimerussia.com/gover/ten-governors-may-be-dismissed-this-week/ | 2018-10-15T18:24:43 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [

Governor of New Hampshire signs law legalizing same-sex marriages
Thursday, June 4, 2009
After both the New Hampshire House of Representatives and Senate of New Hampshire voted to legalize same-sex marriages, the state's Governor, John Lynch signed the legislation into law on June 3.
This makes New Hampshire the sixth state in the United States to legalize same-sex marriages. The other five states are Connecticut, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts and Vermont.
"[I heard] compelling arguments that a separate system is not an equal system. Today, we are standing up for the liberties of same-sex couples by making clear that they will receive the same rights, responsibilities — and respect — under New Hampshire law," said Lynch after signing the bill.
The bill passed in the Senate with 14 in favor and 10 against. The state's House voted hours later in favor of the bill, 198 in favor and 176 against. An earlier version of the bill failed to pass the House because it did not clarify enough rights to religious institutions. Organizations will not be required to perform same-sex marriages. The bill also does not require members of the clergy to perform the marriages.
"Each religious organization, association, or society has exclusive control over its own religious doctrine, policy, teachings and beliefs regarding who may marry within their faith," says the bill.
The law will take effect beginning on January 1, 2010. The law also states that any couples in a same-sex civil union may convert their union to a marriage beginning on that date and will automatically be considered married as of 2011.

Report: Annan failed to fix Oil for Food program
Friday, September 9, 2005
After a year-long investigation, a committee has found that Kofi Annan, head of the United Nations, failed to halt corruption in the Oil for Food program, which was supposed to provide food to impoverished Iraqi citizens.
According to Paul Volcker, head of the Independent Inquiry Committee, "Our assignment has been to look for mis-or mal-administration in the oil-for-food program and for evidence of corruption within the UN organization and by contractors. Unhappily, we found both."
The report emphasized that Annan knowingly allowed Saddam Hussein to continue making huge unethical profits off of the program.
While Annan acknowledged that there was blame to pass around, he stated that "None of us -- member states, Secretariat, agencies, funds and programs -- can be proud of what it has found." Annan also says that he was at least partly at fault for the corruption; "The report is critical of me personally, and I accept its criticism."
On a lighter note, while the report is critical of Annan, it also says that the Oil for Food program did help get food to many Iraqis.

We need to address poverty in a positive manner. You will see change will happen on its own.

Karnataka State Natural Disaster Monitoring Centre (KSNDMC) in collaboration with Indian Institute of Science and Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) is working on a dedicate monsoon mobile app to alert local residents of impending heavy rain and flood in Bengaluru.
Currently KSNDMC has placed several telemetric rain gauges across Bengaluru, which send the automated readings sent it to its servers. Based on the severity, it messages BBMP to prepare for floods. Now, the agency wants to bring this critical information right to the citizens' Palms.
KSNDMC also plans to install more sensors across low lying areas and in storm water drains. Once the water in those canals touches the danger mark it will be immediately passed down to the mobile app so that local people can avoid particular stretch for driving and also undertake precautionary measures.
Earlier in the month, KSNDMC and Indian metrological department (IMD) had taken to social media platform to warn the citizens about a flood alert. But it was withdrawn within hours after calling it as a false alarm. Nevertheless, it was a welcome move by the government Agencies to want the citizens.
Last year, BBMP had planned IMD and KSNDMC for not alerting them of heavy rain, which inundated thousands of houses and left at least 16 people dead.
Several people were told to stay indoors for many days. Karnataka state fire and emergency services department had also carried out boat rescue service to evacuate people in certain low lying areas. Bengaluru had also witnessed the heaviest rainfall in 115 years in 2017.
This year, For the first time, the two Agencies have co-ordinated well and now, kNDMC is going a step forward with the development of the monsoon app.
"Residents in a particular locality can also get alerts on whether the area faces the risk of flooding. we are installing sensors to keep tabs on the water levels of storm water drains during the rainy season. Once they cross the danger mark, alert on flood threat will be sent to App users. Even the sensors and rain gauges will assess the flood risk for a specific area depending on the quantity of rainfall received and sent alerts," KSNDMC director G.M Srinivasa Reddy told the media. | https://english.newsatfirst.com/news/3499-Monsoon-flood-alert-mobile-app-for-Bangluru-under-work | 2018-10-15T18:18:37 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [

Preventing and Resolving Parent-Teacher Differences. ERIC Digest.
Katz, Lilian G.; And Others
Parents disagreements as they arise. It is important for teachers and parents to remember that they know the child in different contexts, and that each may be unaware of what the child is like in the other context. It is also important for teachers and parents to remember that the foundation for good parent-teacher relationships is frequent and open communication and that both teachers and parents share the responsibility for creating such a foundation. There are several strategies teachers can use to establish a climate conducive to open communication. Teachers can: (1) let parents know how and when they can contact the school and the teacher; (2) practice an open-door, open-mind policy; (3) elicit expressions of parents' concerns and interests in preparation for parent-teacher conferences; and (4) involve parents in classroom activities. Parents also have an important role to play in fostering open communication between themselves and teachers. They can: (1) introduce themselves; (2) be involved in classroom and school activities; and (3) initiate regular contact. On those inevitable occasions when parents and teachers disagree, teachers should: (1) know the school policy for addressing parent-teacher disagreements; and (2) use discretion about when and where children and their families are discussed. Parents can: (1) talk directly with the teacher about the problem; (2) avoid criticizing teachers in front of children; and (3) choose an appropriate time and place to discuss the disagreement. (LPP)

The Perceptions of Faculty and Administrators of Remedial Mathematics Education in Two Higher Education Institutions
Datta, Asoke Kumar
ProQuest LLC, Ed.D. Dissertation, University of Southern California
This study explores the perceptions held by faculty and administrators about the effectiveness and institutional characteristics of remedial mathematics programs at two community colleges. Each college approaches remedial education in a different manner but achieves similar outcomes. A qualitative approach was used to elicit a rich spectrum of opinions and experiences to highlight those individual and organizational factors that shape the respondents beliefs and understanding of what they do. Analysis of the responses indicates that there is a significant degree of difference between the opinions of administrators and faculty members on the issues of programmatic effectiveness and faculty professional development. Additionally, it was found that a perceived lack of institutional or system level policies exists. Furthermore, a sense of stigmatization can be found amongst faculty who exclusively teach remedial mathematics courses.

Fray Luis de León said: “What a restful life that flees from the mundane noise, and follows the hidden path where few wise men have gone in the world!” In his Oda a la vida retirada (ode to an isolated life), the Augustinian poet praised something that in the 21st century seems more necessary than ever: the need to get away from the frenetic rhythm of daily life, which can be achieved, albeit in a fleeting way, between the walls of the Spanish monasteries.

my failure teached me something
My calculus teacher once told me, "You cannot achieve success without failure." Math is a subject that I thought to be much more exuberant compared to my other courses. From my past school years, the reflection of my grades made it that much more exciting when partaking in calculus class. I didn't think much of it, calculus was like any one of my other past math classes. Following my past rituals, I decided not to complete most of the assigned homework but rather, study the day before the test. With a pencil tightly gripped, I opened the first ever calculus test and was faced with utter despair. As one can expect, it did not end well. Getting a C probably wasn't the end of the world, but it was something I was not fond of seeing. I didn't study, and I blindly went into a test and got what I deserved. I realized the importance of my grades and the reason I was at school. With this, I chose to work harder. In class, I became fascinated by how mathematics worked as my teacher went over the different proofs of different equations. My next text presented me with a well above average grade I was confident in achieving. Had I not failed, I would have never truly understood the importance of hard work. After all, hard work pays off. | https://essayforum.com/undergraduate/achieve-success-failure-ubc-profile-79065/ | 2018-10-15T16:42:24 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |

Our technicians work closely with facilities personnel, owner operators and contractors to ensure the optimal performance of your fuel equipment and services to fit your budget.
Maintenance Services
CES offers customized preventative maintenance programs covering your entire fuel system. Typically these systems include main fuel storage tanks, electronic control systems, fuel conveyance piping and control valves, pumping systems, day tanks, tank fi lling systems and fi ltration systems. Our preventative maintenance programs reduce downtime and operating costs.
Fuel Integrity Testing Services
Clean, fresh fuel is crucial for engine reliability and an essential lifeline for critical facilities such as data centers, banks, water treatment plants, and hospitals. CES provides onsite technicians to extract samples from your fuel storage tanks and send them to our partnership laboratories. This allows us to offer our customers economical laboratory analysis for stability, water, bacteria and organic and inorganic contamination. We provide far more stringent fuel analysis over standard ASTM 975 specifications ensuring the most reliable clean fuel for your facility. Based on the lab report, CES can provide a fuel treatment plan or onsite filtration/polishing services to insure fuel reliability.
Fuel Filtration / Conditioning Services
Treating your stored diesel fuel with fuel additives can be an effective form of maintaining clean reliable fuel, but in many cases additives are not enough. When nuisance amounts of water, bacteria, and sediment are constant, simply mixing in an additive to your fuel may not be sufficient. CES provides on-site tank fuel filtration services or full service maintenance agreements available on an annual or bi-annual basis. Call CES today and let us develop an emergency or standby power conditioning program for you.

I was on my way home from work yesterday when I distracted by the amazing pinkish sky to my left. Between the trees, I caught sight of the fiery ball of the setting sun low on the horizon. It looked nearby, and I felt like I could catch it. So I turned the car around, took the road to Beverly Airport, parked the car, and rushed outside where the bright ball of the sun appeared to be balancing on the horizon across the field. I quickly shot the picture above through the chainlink fence as I rushed over, hoping to shoot over or through the fence and get the picture I wanted, but the sun sank below the horizon way too fast.
This picture for me is all about the one that got away, but I’m not too unhappy about it. I chased after a beautiful sunset, and I caught it. I have the image in my mind, even though I wasn’t quite fast enough to catch it with my camera! | https://ethomsen.wordpress.com/2010/03/09/trying-to-catch-the-setting-sun/ | 2018-10-15T17:38:43 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |

26 November 2017
PRESS RELEASE
Bulgarian authorities must act to secure the safety of the Kozloduy Nuclear Power Plant
Bulgaria’s Kozloduy Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) is an immediate threat to the local environment and population after its Chernobyl-style No. 5 reactor expired on 7 November 2017 (operational for a maximum of 30 years). It is currently operating illegally without complying with current European conventions (Espoo and Aarhus). The European Green Party calls on Bulgarian authorities to secure the safety of the Kozloduy NPP by accepting requests for a full Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report.
The Romanian Green Party states that Bulgaria decided to proceed with the lifetime extension of reactors No. 5 and No. 6 without any public information and debates and ignoring a request from Romanian authorities for a full Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report. A team of 2 International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) staff members, 5 external experts and 4 observers conducted an expert review of the Kozloduy NPP and identified 11 issues in fundamental areas. None of these issues have been addressed.
Bulgaria’s notification for the extension of reactor No. 5 states there is no risk to the Romania/Bulgaria border, although it did not support its claims. The most recent seismic data risk assessment points to a ‘likely’ severe incident. Extreme earthquakes have periodically struck the Kozloduy region: 1908 (magnitude 7.1), 1940 (magnitude 7.7), 1977 (magnitude 7.4), 1986 (magnitude 7.1), 30 and 31 May,1990 (magnitude 6.9 and 6.4).
Bulgaria’s decision not to proceed with a full Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report, in a transboundary perspective, is a flagrant violation of the Espoo convention.
Immediate international support and pressure on the Bulgarian and Romanian authorities to fully respect the European Espoo and Aarhus conventions is needed based on these concerns, in terms of the risk posed to local populations by the Kozloduy NPP. The move receives full backing from the Romanian Green Party, the Bulgarian Green Party, the “Danube Region Nuclear Free” coalition in Vienna, as well as other major NGOs in Romania and Bulgaria.
The European Green Party Committee calls on Bulgarian authorities to secure the safety of the Kozloduy NPP by accepting requests for a full Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report.

The Minus 5’s ‘Down With Wilco: A Tragedy In Three Halfs’ is one of my favorite LPs. It is bathed in catchy refrains with harmonies that melt the ears. If you can get your hands on this gem, throw down your loot, then send yepROC Records, Scott McCaughey, Peter Buck, Jeff Tweedy, John Stirratt, Glenn Kotche, and Leroy Bach a thank you note. Just the way they get down at the end of ‘Where Will You Go’ and then transition into ‘Life Left Him’ is worth your scratch. You may ask yourself what’s my reward for seeking out this musical treasure? Your kid will someday thank you for having such excellent taste when you kick the can.

7 Deadly s{K}ins the landmark is not correct. Most of the items are outdated and ugly.
July 31, 2018 at 6:25 pm
Well, aren’t you a big ray of sunshine, Disappointed! Normally I would just delete a negative comment like that because it’s insulting to the designers that are offering these items for free but I felt the comment portion of your LM issue was valid. Those items on the list are all created by a real live human beings with feelings and they were kind enough to share them with every new resident on the grid. Just because you find something to be outdated and ugly doesn’t mean everyone will.
Freebie Etiquette:
Thanks for the heads up on the 7 Deadly S{kins} landmark. I’ll check that out.

Our Fantasy Projections for the Denver Broncos in 2015
The Broncos had yet another impressive season in 2014 but failed to make it a memorable one by losing in the divisional playoffs and missing out on a second Super Bowl spot. The team finished 12-4 in the regular season, with older players like Peyton Manning continuing to lead the line while younger stars like C.J. Anderson made a name for themselves on the big stage. The 2014 season could’ve been much greater for a squad with so much talent, so the Broncos will be out to show what they’re really made of in 2015.
For fantasy players, the Denver roster is full of interesting potential selections. There are some high floor players who will be sure to offer plenty of points to your squad along with some decent value picks. Let’s take a closer look at the Broncos as we approach week 1 of the new season and analyze some of the players you might be considering for your fantasy team.
Quarterback: Peyton Manning
Let’s kick things off with Denver’s star signal caller Peyton Manning. Manning has been a popular fantasy pick for several years now, with his consistently excellent form guaranteeing owners plenty of points every season. The 2011 season aside, Manning has started every single game since 1998 and in spite of his age he continues to put up incredible numbers year in and year out. We can expect to see another fantastic performance from one of the NFL’s finest ever quarterbacks in 2015 and he’ll surely finish the season as a top five QB. However, his age simply cannot be ignored at this point. The 39-year-old is losing some of the strength he once had and it could be time for long-term owners to consider younger alternatives.
Wide Receiver: Demaryius Thomas, Emmanuel Sanders, Cody Latimer
Demaryius Thomas is another popular pick from the Denver roster. He’ll undoubtedly have a big role to play in the 2015 season and has been in very impressive form over the last few years. In fact, he’s been a top-five fantasy WR for three seasons in a row and still has room to improve. Despite being one of the best receivers in the NFL in 2014, his red-zone efficiency was pretty poor and he’ll hope to develop that side of his game for the new season. The departure of Julius Thomas from the roster opens up even more scoring opportunities for Demaryius, who will not face too much competition from the likes of Emmanuel Sanders. Speaking of Sanders, he had a real breakout season in 2014 and developed a good understanding with Manning. Still, with Steve Smith Sr., Andre Johnson and Demaryius fighting for those wide spots, Sanders might struggle for fantasy points.
It’s also worth mentioning young WR Cody Latimer here. After an unsuccessful rookie season in which Latimer was quite widely criticized for failing to make sufficient efforts to adapt to Denver’s style of play, many fans are wondering how the future will pan out for the 22-year-old. He has potential and could be an important part of the roster in a couple of years, but with so much competition on the squad he just can’t be recommended as a fantasy pick for 2015.
Denver Broncos Tight End Depth
The Broncos have also picked up Owen Daniels and extended the contract of Virgil Green, who will both add to that competition even further. These guys will play and both have proven track records of putting up decent numbers. However, they are expected to share game time and this could destroy any value they might have as fantasy selections. If you have to pick one, Daniels is recommended for the high amount of receptions he should earn.
Running Back: C.J. Anderson and Montee Ball
C.J. Anderson didn’t play as much as he would have liked at the start of last season, but the running back is scheduled to be a major player in 2015. In the last ten games of the Broncos’ 2014 season, he showed what he could do with some very impressive numbers including 8 touchdowns on 183 carries. He’s a strong and reasonably fast player who, like most other members of the Denver roster, will benefit greatly from working with Peyton Manning. Anderson will begin the season as the Broncos’ first choice RB and could provide excellent value for fantasy owners.
That said, he’ll have to win the battle against the potentially impressive Montee Ball. After a solid rookie campaign that seemed to set him up for great things, an injury completely curtailed Ball’s 2014 season. He isn’t entering this season as a genuine rival for Anderson, but he does have the potential to improve as a player and could take his chance if ever C.J. suffers an injury. Finally, we have Ronnie Hillman, another player who struggled with injury troubles in 2014. He did well when called upon last season and remains the number 3 RB on the roster. Injuries aside, he’s a reliable player and could be a good value pick for your fantasy squad. | https://fantasyfootballfreaks.com/denver-broncos-fantasy-preview-for-2015/ | 2018-10-15T18:20:02 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [

I've decided to begin a new routine ~
and I'm hoping I can stick to it.
So, I thought;
each Friday, I'll share here what has inspired me throughout the week.
I'm sure not everything will be about needlework
{but mostly...really who am I kidding?}
Mostly photos will be shared from Pinterest ~
my very favorite place to be in my head.
I just love how all of those pins can be collected & shared by like-minded folks.
and I especially love sharing my own photos there for my followers on Pinterest too.
Most of you know me as a designer of primitive and/or whimsical needlework,
but I like to think of myself as something a little more.
I never want to be constrained into one description or another,
so I call my varying interests 'eclectic' to say the least.
I am contemporary & I am old fashioned,
... modern yet vintage.
and I love color, and neutrality ~
textures and design.
I'm more complex than I am aware I guess...I think we all are perhaps....
and as I allow myself to think outside my comfortable perimeters
I find that I
just. love. everything.
Life itself.
So, bear with me friends, as I explore more
and keep my thoughts and attitude positive and fresh.
I'll not include wording or descriptions for the photos,
~ but allow them to speak to you however they may.
Here is my very first post for Inspiration Friday:
{and yes Nancy D ~ I am quite smitten with the color Yellow}
;)
Blessings from the Farm ~

Oh me! Most fun I've had all day! I loved your comment about just. loving, everything! Loving life....we need so much more awareness of that, especially now with so much turmoil, fighting and general dismay! What a GREAT reminder to LOVE LIFE!!! Bless you for inspiring us with your thoughts and beautiful pictures!!!
All I kept saying is wow... wow... wow! There aren't enough adjectives to describe the beauty you have created. :-o
Cathryn
WOWZA!!!!! Yes, my Dear, you really are smitten! Such a cheerful color! And…boy, do I love that "sprouting" hare! I'm going to like Inspiration Friday!
This is something I will really look forward to. Pinterest helps keep me sane while living in the most boring place on earth. You bring so much pleasure to my life Lori. Thanks for sharing some more of yourself.
Lovely choices with a lovely color!
Karen in NC
Oh, I like yellow too! Love the piece still in the hoop! Brightened my day! (It is very cold, damp and gray, here today, I needed that wonderful brightness!!)
Thanks for sharing all the pretties!
That was Fun !!! Yellow is the perfect color for this time of year ! Bright & cheery !!!!
Hi LORI, Today I found a pop-up card with a YELLOW flower I´ll send to an old quilting friend, 90+ to let her know I´m thinking of her after a tough winter.
I like yellow but I don´t wear that colour. 60 years back I made a lemon yellow dress and used it just once and just before lunch.
Probably we´ll have two more months of Winter but we can enjoy the SUN sometimes and that make the life much easier.
Louise in Sweden.
Thank you so much for sharing. Love it. My favorite is the wall collage-not sure if that is the proper word but that's what popped in my head. Yes, I love every style, primitive, seasonal, etc. that is why I NEED TO DOWN SIZE UP STUFF. Thank you again. I look forward to next Friday.
I have just started reading your blog and I love what you create, it's sobeautiful! I also love the way you write your blog, it just seems so relaxing and soothing :)
I also love the picture of your cat Iggy.
Michelle
Beautiful!
What an inspiring blog post - yellow is such a happy colour.
Great posting and definitely inspiration. There are so many different types of stitching and don't you just appreciate them all. thanks for sharing ann
Bravo, Lori! Your post really spoke to me, as a person who loves prim but is also inspired by many other designs and techniques. I like to try everything, and there is so much to learn! I'm glad that I'm not alone, and I look forward to seeing your creations!
Wow, there are some real pieces of art in this collection of inspiration!
Yellow makes me happy too, so I get why you like it :-)
Have a nice weekend,
Sigrid
Lord Love a Duck!!! I loved this post. Can't wait for the future Friday posts. Every single picture was really, really exciting.

Council reaches political agreement on reduced VAT for e-books
It is with immense pleasure that the Federation of European Publishers welcomes the political agreement reached today by the Economic and Financial Affairs Council on the legislative proposal regarding reduced rates of VAT for e-publications.
“This forward-looking decision marks the end of the unjustified fiscal discrimination between publications in different formats, acknowledging the cultural, social and economic value of books, journals and educational materials in all formats and the technological progress that has taken place in the sector”, said Rudy Vanschoonbeek, President of FEP.
FEP and all its members would like to express their gratitude to all those who supported this cause along the years, making this landmark achievement possible.

Scott King: A New Life in Frigg
Sat 16 Jun – Sun 9 Sept 2018
Opening Celebration Fri 29 Jun 2018, 6 – 9 pm
Do you remember:
When you knew your neighbours?
When shop assistants were not machines?
When you could still telephone your bank?
When a holiday was at home, not abroad?
When summer seemed to last forever?
When you felt that you belonged?
If you answered YES to any of these questions…
There may be a place in Frigg for YOU.
Frigg is a fictional new town created by artist and graphic designer Scott King. It is part of Britlin’s, a satirical proposal to redesign Britain as a 1970s holiday camp. A combination of the words ‘Britain’ and ‘Butlin’s’, Britlin’s plays with the power of collective nostalgia to imagine a new society. From a new Chairlift Network connecting Land’s End to John O’Groats, to the creation of self-policing New Towns fuelled by fun; Britlin’s proposes strategies to make “your past our future”.
‘A New Life in Frigg’ invites applicants to sign up to the Britlin’s vision. Potential residents can use the large site map to imagine their own day-to-day journeys around the town. In Come to Frigg (2018) – a newly commissioned work made by filmmaker Paul Kelly – a Britlin’s representative explains the advantages of relocating to this utopia. A series of questionnaires set up scenarios to test recruits suitability for joining the Britlin’s community, probing underlying concepts of nostalgia.
The design of the Frigg site is based on Butlin’s Clacton, a holiday camp located in Clacton-on-Sea in Essex. The camp was one of 10 camps founded by former showman Billy Butlin and opened in June 1938 with the vision of providing British working class families with ‘a weeks holiday for a weeks pay’. Butlin’s Clacton closed in September 1983 as a consequence of changing tastes and the development of package holidays abroad.

Personal Trainers
Just as nutrition and cardio exercise are important factors in losing fat, so is weight or resistance training. Its positive health benefits have made personal training a mainstream profession whose clientele is no longer just for the rich. Personal trainers can help anyone interested in learning the proper techniques for lifting weights and provide guidance on good nutrition, including supplementation, to support your training efforts. Moreover, Personal Trainers also help motivate and push you to work harder to reach your personal fitness goals whether that is to compete in a contest or just to loose weight and feel better about yourself. Even though I’m very knowledgeable and well educated on fitness and nutrition, when I’m training for a bodybuilding contest, I hire a trainer for these very reasons.. Moreover, I see some individuals who have competed in a couple of contests bringing home a shiny trophy who then self appoint themselves as “successful” personal trainers. In order to meet and exceed your personal fitness goals it is wise to seek out a personal trainer that will support and guide you in many areas of your fitness journey.
The following are some strategies and qualities that you should look for when looking to hire a Personal Trainer: –
- A quality Trainer should perform a thorough and complete assessment with you at your first meeting. Which should consist of baseline measurements such as weight, body fat percentage, etc. They should also cover a nutritional review of your current caloric intake and supplement support. Moreover, they should discuss with you a host of lifestyle variables, including your personal schedule, personal goals and your social & family support to embark on your fitness journey.
- They should demonstrate previous successes with past clients and personal successes showing that they practice what they preach. They should keep detailed statistics of their clients, track their client’s adherence and log how their clients’ bodies are changing and over what time period. They should be able to show you before and after photos of their clients and reveal compelling testimonials of how they have impacted their lives in a positive and meaningful way (clients attained their fitness goals).
- They should have multiple certifications that are industry related including a relevant degree if possible. One thing that is quite important to me is education, certification and commitment to life-long learning. This demonstrates that the individual has supported their profession and skill through knowledge that is professionally validated in the industry in which they work. They should be knowledgeable on more than just one aspect of the industry. They should bring to bear knowledge and skill on training methodologies, body composition, nutrition, supplementation, and more.
- Another important aspect is seeing a personal training keeping themselves in good physical condition. It demonstrates that they incorporate their own fitness prescriptions into their lives. In essence they should practice what they preach.
- They should track appropriate data (e.g. weight, caloric intake, pictures) weekly and provide modified guidance as appropriate. Having personalized, solid nutritional and exercise plans in place throughout the months of training prescription are critical to the effective outcome for the client. On a weekly basis they should create a customized training and diet plan for you and follow up with you to ensure there was a clear understanding of the plans. –
- A good trainer should thoroughly integrate training and nutrition. Many individuals, including myself believed that having a carefully constructed exercise plan with strict adherence would produce significant results in regards to body composition. What was missing was dietary intervention. On a consistent basis they should assesses your nutritional intake and integrate a nutritional solution as part of the fitness programming. Without a carefully prescribed nutrition and supplement plan you are missing a very large part of the equation.
- They need to care. Just a couple of other elements to make mention is the fact that Personal Trainers should really know how to help a variety of clients based on their personal fitness goals – not just bodybuilders such as myself. Finally, they need to show that they sincerely care about their clients and celebrate their successes with them regardless if they are big or small.

government is different from presidential democracies, in which the people themselves elect a president into office.
In many cases, the head of government (i.e. the Prime Minister) in a parliamentary democracy is not the head of state. This title usually falls to a ceremonial president (in a parliamentary republic) or a monarch (in a constitutional monarchy. Parliamentary democracy has been around since the 1700s, and it is present in several countries around the world including Japan, Ireland, India, and the United Kingdom.
Parliamentary democracy has gained many supporters over the years, but there are also those who oppose this kind of government and say that it comes with several disadvantages. Read on to know more about the pros and cons of parliamentary democracy.
List of Pros of Parliamentary Democracy
1. It requires parties to cooperate with each other.
In parliamentary democracy, a party cannot pass any legislation if they don’t have majority rule or if they can’t get the help of other parties. Because of this, all parties within the government must form a coalition if they want to enact laws and bills and propel the country forward.
2. It encourages leaders to choose the common good.
Politicians in presidential democracies usually get their funding and support from individuals who have their own agenda. As a result, those in the government have to protect the interests of their supporters or risk losing them. This isn’t normally the case in parliamentary democracy. Since there’s an additional space between voters and politicians, the latter don’t need to worry about the interests of certain individuals, and they can focus on doing what’s best for the country.
3. It prevents the head of government from being too powerful.
The executive branch of the parliamentary democracy is separated into several departments, which are each headed by a department head (who answers directly to the parliament). So, instead of being the sole executive leader, the Prime Minister shares his power and responsibilities with several other people. The parliamentary can also dismiss the Prime Minister any time through a motion of no confidence if they see that he’s not doing his job well.
List of Cons of Parliamentary Democracy
1. It may prevent the minority from being heard.
Ideally, the minority challenges the decisions of the majority and helps create a healthy “check and balance” system. However, this may not always be possible, particularly when a party gains complete majority in parliament and has the power to make decisions without consulting other parties.
2. It can be abused by the ruling party.
Because elections don’t have a fixed date in a parliamentary democracy, the ruling party can schedule it whenever they like. Specifically, they can avoid having elections when they see that they’re unpopular among the people and opt to have it during a time when they’re most likely to win. This careful timing means that they can extend their rule for a long time.
Final Thoughts
Parliamentary democracy isn’t perfect. Just like any other form of government, it comes with several advantages and disadvantages, which must be weighed carefully to create the best possible government for the country. | https://flowpsychology.com/5-pros-and-cons-of-parliamentary-democracy/ | 2018-10-15T18:11:02 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |

Aysia Wright was a lawyer and environmental activist in the spring of 2004, when she decided that fashion retail would be her next challenge. “I wanted to get out of practicing law, and I felt that fashion is so pervasive it can serve as a catalyst, and it was a really good platform for an environmental message,” she said. In September of that year, Wright founded her 900-sq.-ft. Portland, Ore., eco-boutique, Greenloop, and launched a Website soon after. Both carry a mix of clothing and footwear. In the beginning, it wasn’t easy to grow her niche — with green retail not as recognizable or widespread as it is today, and with fewer brands to choose from. But working in a field she’s so passionate about has its upside. “It was a huge challenge,” Wright said, “but it’s fun. And within the design community, [green brands] are a nice group of people to work for and advocate for.”
THE RIGHT MIX
To be considered for Greenloop, Wright said, brands have to fill out a detailed questionnaire about where they manufacture, what textiles they use, where they source and more. Decisions are made on a case-by-case basis — but no matter how good the green pedigree is, she said, the shoes have to be durable and trend-right. If not, Wright explained, “[the shoes] are inherently unsustainable because no one will wear them and they won’t last.” Greenloop stocks shoes from Beyond Skin, Melissa Shoes, Toms, Simple, Terra Plana, Autonomie Project and Charmoné. Prices range from $30 to $350, and shoes, available for men and women, account for 15 percent to 20 percent of the store’s business, which registers slightly less than $1 million a year. Variety, Wright said, is key: “There’s a little something for everyone.”
SERVICE ISSUES
The main mission online and off is communicating eco-credentials and features to shoppers, and Wright employs a staff of five to manage both. For the e-commerce site, operated out of the store, Wright’s employees work to provide online shoppers with the same information they could get in-store. They use brand pages to explain each supplier’s mission, and a staff blog talks up environmental causes and green issues in the world. “It’s easier to convey the info online, quite frankly,” Wright said. “You can open a conversation and allow [customers] to explore for themselves. And you reach a much broader population on the Web than you can in a physical store.”
BY DESIGN
When it came to designing Greenloop’s space, housed inside a converted Victorian-era house, Wright did the work herself. She said she put a premium on making the store sustainable, which resulted in an eclectic, casual look. “All our displays come from repurposed, recycled fixtures,” she said. “It’s nothing terribly fancy — we tried to buy nothing new.” Painting and other finishing was done with green-certified, low-toxicity materials, and the store buys its energy through a program offered by Portland General Electric that sources power through wind and other means. That do-it-yourself mentality also drove the design of Thegreenloop.com, which was handled by Wright’s business partner, Jake Schirm.
PROMOTIONAL STRATEGIES
Reaching out to her customers directly is at the heart of Wright’s strategy — and with so much of her business coming through the Website, that means expanding her social networking, she said. “The customer is going to have to be open to communication from us,” she said. “Twitter, RSS feeds, MySpace, Facebook — and we try to get involved with the shopping sites, as well.” Another facet of her customer outreach is her changing sale policy. For a while, she said, Greenloop had been taking markdowns as needed to clear inventory. But this season, Wright said, she’s switching to a private-sale model. “I don’t always want to have a product on sale,” she said. Taking a proactive stance in a recession, Wright said she wants to move away from discounting. “Goods should be paid for full-price, and we should probably have to work a little harder to get a deal,” she said.
FACING CHALLENGES
While Wright said it has gotten easier to find new lines that meet her criteria, it can still be difficult to stock more affordable green fashion. “I want to make the product more accessible to a broader range of incomes,” she said. In the past, Wright said, some of the more sustainable options were “typically more expensive than customers could afford to spend, no matter how much they wanted to support responsible companies.” While she’s seen some progress, Wright said she’s still looking. “There are a few somewhat interesting basic lines, but finding small, responsible companies to fill in the void — that’s the challenge.”
FEEDBACK
Jodi Koskella, VP of Charmoné, said Wright’s and her team’s thoroughness in vetting brands has made the Greenloop Website a destination — and a valuable account to be stocked in. At the beginning of their association, Koskella said, “they asked a lot of questions. They weren’t going to take anybody just because you said you were green.” Koskella said making it past Wright’s screening process accords a lot of respect: “There’s a credibility that comes with being with Greenloop.”
The Website also gets a lot of attention from green-seeking shoppers and the press, which Sasha Mayer, the U.S. rep of the British-based Beyond Skin line, has called “essential” to the label’s growth in the U.S. “The site is key: We direct everyone there,” Mayer said, adding that it’s been a major boost to business. “The press and [customers] are familiar with Greenloop. It’s become the Zappos of sustainable brands.”
THE PORTLAND SCENE
Neighborhood vibe: The Sellwood area in Portland’s southeast is known for its small-town feel and many antique shops.
Customer base: Greenloop is surrounded by young families and attracts local shoppers in their early 20s to early 50s looking for casual basics. Thegreenloop.com draws shoppers from across the U.S., often hunting for more fashion-forward sustainable styles.
Competition: Wright said she considers her fellow eco-retailers confederates: “The market is big enough that there’s no reason we can’t coexist and support each other.” Her biggest competitors, she said, are other Internet sites that sell her brands. | https://footwearnews.com/2009/business/news/retail-profile-greenloop-91107/ | 2018-10-15T17:43:28 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |

Crashing when deleting local files
I had a bunch of files I created locally, copied them to Dropbox, and then wanted to delete the local versions. I did this by swiping to the right and pressing delete... And each time, Editorial crashed.
At first I thought it was because I was deleting a file that was currently loaded in the editor... But it still happened if I tried to delete other files.
I think this is the first time I've had this happen... Weird?
- TutorialDoctor
I've been getting several crashes from certain functions, and it's hard to figure what is causing them.
I have IOS7 on one tablet, and IOS 8 on another.
Haven't had this one yet.
Thanks for the reply. As a a datapoint, this is happening on iOS 8 with the most current version of Editorial.
Sorry about this. As a workaround for now, you can use the "Edit" button to delete files (instead of swipe-to-delete), the crash shouldn't happen then. | https://forum.omz-software.com/topic/1275/crashing-when-deleting-local-files | 2018-10-15T18:01:32 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |
Kirinvar is first digger! Yeah
Keep it coming guys and gals
@brook-monroe I’ve added more detailed directions in the original post; hope this helps!
Thank you so much @Kirinvar and @Initiols for being willing to do this for free! We still need as many diggers as we can get though, so we’re still offering pay to anyone who wants it. Just please tell us beforehand whether or not you want to be paid so we can set aside coins for you.
@Initiols We’ll need to friend you so we can add you to the beacon permissions.
Made it. Where the heck do I go once I get through that last portal? Down?
I don’t see … well, now that I started typing this, there’s someone in here with me.
I’m off for today, @brook-monroe sorry, had to go, don’t have more time for guiding you through
That’s okay. I’m looking around getting oriented. Also falling off things. It’s an education.
1st Round, 1 Hammer gone, 3 hours, 47k xp, 5600 Rock, 2400 Sand and Gravel, 406 Metal, 307 Coal, 66 Fossils, 12 Tech.
lol me to
its even worse if you have to fill it and then dig it out like my village hahahaha
water thank god i hate lava
@Initiols and @brook-monroe are either of you ready to start digging? I’ve got @Jeffrotheswell waiting to add a digger to his beacon.
Ugh. I replied via e-mail instead of coming here: on weekdays during the daylight hours my employer pretty much captures and holds my attention in exchange for sweet, sweet cash. I’m usually not available until after 1930 (23:30 UTC, or 67.3 decibels if you’re using metric) on week nights. | https://forum.playboundless.com/t/diggers-needed/9973?page=2 | 2018-10-15T17:34:22 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [

I purchased a Galaxy 3850 2-bay NAS enclosure and have two 1TB hard drives in it. The enclosure is plugged into my router via a gig-Ethernet interface. It has the ability to do FTP and iTunes mounts (which is my main purpose for buying it, to have one iTunes library accessible from 7 computers and one Apple TV). In both cases I am having the same problem and need help. The hard drives are from two manufactures, one is WD & other is Seagate. I am able to SMB mount both hard drives but am not able to copy anything over to them, getting an error that I don't have permissions. I am however, able to FTP into either of the mounts and copy the same data that would not copy from the SMB mount. I have tried doing an AFP with the same problem. As I have mac & PC's on my network, both need to be formatted in FAT 32 but I have also tried HTFS and NTFS. I formatted both from internal setup on the G5 then put them in the NAS. I have formatted the WD as a test in the pc tower, in the mac G5, and in the NAS itself. The same problem from each. I have also tried to format using different versions of windows (XP pro SP3 & vista ultimate), and OSX (10.4.11 & 10.5.6) with same error. In trying to troubleshoot I have run into what I believe to be the real problem but I can not fix it. When either drive is plugged internally into the G5 and I attempt to modify the permissions through terminal as root I get the following error with this command "sudo vsdbutil -a /Volumes/Storage" (one hard drive is called storage and the other is storage2) error: "vsdbutil: no valid volume UUID found on '/Volumes/Storage/': permissions are disabled." I do want to stress that it will accept the admin password to mount the share, & i can copy from it, just not to it. I also can FTP data to it but it takes too long. I have copied what the disk utility from the G5 running 10.5.6 says about the seagate when doing a get info.

Thinking it could be PSU overload? Only seems to happen in Overwatch, about 10-20 minutes into a game. Only started happening when I upgraded to a 1080ti and Kraken G12 + Corsair H105 cooler + fan splitters.

@Carlos I like the idea of status caster and I think Elvira has proven that this is a very interesting ability, but please don't make the mistake and combine it with a too strong area trait. Double life or even only 50% more life by itself is a very, very strong advantage. If you choose this, then make the area cast something less strong than immune against all control effects. Or alternatively keep the area cast as proposed but choose a less strong area trait, maybe something like immune to all Dot effects....

@callumarachnoid we are all playing the same game, are we not?
David ML
@BaxAttacks well done! This certainly clears that one!
But I still suspect that there is something not quite right in the battle system which started when blind +daze suddenly became - 62% instead of 75% in the in-game battle status text and damage boost + double damage became +200% instead of +150%.....
....and the moment I was convinced something isn't quite right was when I put precision on my dazed Ultrabot, used a single target 95% skill and it missed! It seems to me that the moment you mix up various precision altering status effects, things get screwed up. Theoretically, a blind+dazed Nishant's Pet using Soul Piercer on tough monsters should have a VERY low chance of hitting, yet managed to land 2/3 on two separate occasions....
... it's a bit tricky to test this properly, expect maybe during war prep time in friendly battles with the right set of rules, so if you feel like another challenge... ;)

For years you’ve likely believed milk should be a part of your diet.
Part of that has to do with the fact that so many people have been drinking it for so long.
Since man first domesticated cows we’ve been drinking the milk they make for their calves.
And with new advertising power, the dairy industry has repeatedly reinforced the idea that milk “Does a body good.”
That might not be true. There’s actually a growing body of evidence that indicates it isn’t true.
One of the reasons is milk from cows is not made for the human body. In all reality cows’ milk is for their calves, not people. Humans are the only species that willfully drink the milk from another animal.
Another reason is milk is only meant for the development of infants. Again take a look at the natural world and ask yourself how many full grown animals are at their mother’s teat. The answer of course is zero.
But these reasons aside there are actually a few others.
Dr. Loren Cordain, author of “The Paleo Diet,” has listed the following reasons to avoid milk..
The truth is the modern food supply depends on dairt.
Most foods use some kind of dairy in their ingredients. And it’s a billion dollar industry that isn’t going to go down without a fight.
However, organic milk that has not been pasteurized and comes from the milk of grass fed cows is recommended by some.
Why?
For one it still contains many of the healthy bacteria and enzymes that aid in digestion.
Secondly is that kind of milk does not have the hormones so much conventional cow milk has.
If it’s had sparingly, it can be incorporated into your diet.
One of the things you can replace milk with is coconut milk and coconut oil.
Look out for an article on coconut oil coming soon.
SO STOP THE FOOD AND DRUG FROM PASTURIZING THE MILK AND ADDING DRUGS….. DO IT JUST THE WAY US FARM KIDS DO IT….MILK THE COW… COOL THE MILK, SEPARATE THE CREAM, POUR THE MILK ON YOUR CEREAL…. HOW EASY IS THAT??????
You forgot to say to stop “Homogenizing” the milk to break down the fat particles. This is why the saturated fat is so easily absorbed by the human digestive system! We didn’t have all the disease and health problems before homogenizing milk!
No links to check the credibility of any of these claims? I was raised on a dairy farm and literally lived on milk. All of our neighbors did, too. Nobody was sick, we all survived and our parents lived into their nineties. Any questions? Start writing articles based on fact, not your crappy opinion.
Yup, we drank milk from cows that did not receive Growth Hormones which, I believe, is causing cancer and young girls developing at an earlier age… BUT, I have stopped drinking milk as often as I used to, maybe a quart a month, I believe today’s milk is poison. is
Hmmm…I don’t drink milk much at all because I have lactose intolerance.
But it occurred to me about a month that humans are the only on animal on earth that drinks milk past a certain age.
How many other Adult animals do you see drinking milk? None. None at all.
They
don’t, because it’s not needed, and it’s not natural for us as humans
to consume our mother’s milk past a certain age, either.
So just why are we drinking cows milk?
KATHY, We drink cows milk cuz it is to hard to milk pigeons
Of course other animals “drink” milk. Think for a moment. No, we don’t see any animals milking cows and then pouring a glass. But watch any predator make a kill on female prey with milk. Mammary glands are devoured.
I love this BS. First they say we shouldn’t drink cows milk because we are the only species that drinks another species milk. Then, they say we shouldn’t drink cows milk because we aren’t infants. Then they say it’s ok if it’s organic cows milk. How does it being organic negate the “other species” or “not being infants” reason. Doctors and so called nutritionists have been condemning dairy products for over 50 years for all kinds of reasons. Every one has a different reason. Now we have an epidemic of Osteoporosis. Hmmmm, I wonder why. I’m 68 and have been drinking milk since birth. When I was in school, I was drinking a gallon in three days. Now, drink a gallon in 6 days (we buy milk at Costco by the box, 2 to 3 a month). I recently had a knee replacement as the cartilage was gone (lots of running, basketball and hard work) and my surgeon said my bones were in perfect shape, also large and dense. As far as lactose intolerance, my wife is Asian and I was buying 2%, which she was having a problem with. I switched to whole milk while going on a weight loss plan (The Plan) and suddenly she doesn’t have a problem any more. I’ve found that eliminating all low fat and no fat foods gets rid of almost all allergic reactions with food. Eat natural, eat a varied diet, drink plenty of water and your weight will manage better, you’ll feel better. By the way, we eat 8 dozen jumbo eggs a month (eggs are good for the brain and skin). Nutritionists and doctors told us 50 years ago to stop eating eggs. Now, we have an epidemic of Alzheimer’s. I had an angiogram and I have no plaque in or around my heart, liver and kidney function are fine, colonoscopy passed and blood pressure 127/79. If you want to stop drinking milk or eating dairy, fine, but when your bones start breaking, you can’t go back.
I was raised on cows milk and other dairy products, we would make our own butter. Fresh cream on our fruit, yummy…My bones are in great shape no health problems. Because I watch what I eat…NO GMO, no chemicals. milk straight from the cow, real eggs from a range roaming chicken, beef from range cattle…I do not buy at the store, they will sell ya any crap.. buy from a good farmer…My doc says I am healthy no problems other then getting old. 69 is a good age and I am having lots of fun….If people would watch what they eat and what is in there food.. they would not have all these diseases..Years ago all foods were organic…Then scientist came along and wanted to make thinks with no seeds and watermelon the size of cantelopes and corn your body can digest. Leave the food alone.. and you wonder where all the sickness comes from…MAN messing with MOTHER NATURE
The Paleo Diet was just listed as one of the worst diets to follow. Why would I listen to them when they discuss dairy?
We are the only species that drink’s another species’ milk? Tell that to my cats!
“Domesticated” Cat, n’est pas??
Need I really define “Domesticated” for you and your Pavlovian perspective?
I doubt any cat is completely domesticated; certainly not to the extent that dogs are. But please do define it for a benighted one such as I, O thou of more enlightened countenance.
Oh, I’m not more enlightened, just A French-Fried Canadienne.
Educated a bit more classically & at a higher level than Americans are is all….Classical teaching encourages a discipline of “Critical thinking”, an educational theme sadly not seen inside America for at least an entire generation.
A joke to example this:
What do you call a person who speaks 3 languages?
A Tri-lingual.
What do you call a person who speaks 2 languages?
A Bi-lingual.
What do you call a person who speaks only 1 language?
An American.
I would not consider you to be benighted but the rather?: beggarly, bankrupt, & blighted.
I won’t argue our educational system sucks, at least the public schools, anyway. A few private schools still teach the right way. The Progressives in this country want it that way so our populace is fat, dumb and happy so we’re more easily controlled. Thank God for conservative talk radio there’s able to be some push-back.
As for that silly joke, having two official languages doesn’t exactly enhance national cohesiveness. I’ve noticed each time Quebec votes to secede the percentage gets that much higher. I’m betting even though it hasn’t seceded yet, it probably will in my lifetime. About the only multilingual country that’s succeeded is Switzerland, and that’s only because there are other ties between language groups such as religion. Lots of French Protestants there and their religion ties them to the rest even when their language doesn’t.
I know Europeans look down on us regarding our monolingualism, but they fail to consider how the whole of western Europe could easily fit into the landmass of just half of the US with plenty of room to spare. With that many countries packed so close together of course you’re going to have more exposure to other languages. Over here there’s been no need, at least until the last few Presidents started allowing droves of illegal aliens. At a minimum we’ll need to learn Spanish now too.
Of course I’m betting all the languages you know are all based on Latin. Given that common root it’s a bit easier to learn more than one. Consider the opposite extreme, however. We’ve got such a polyglot of linguistic groups here in MN alone. You’re the exception rather than the rule if you’re able to learn Spanish AND Somali, AND Hmong AND Farsi AND Vietnamese, just to name a few. What’s worse is many of them WON’T learn English. If any of them are suffering a heart attack and can’t tell me what’s wrong when I might otherwise be able to help, oh well. The Progressives would tell me what a racist I am for not learning everyone else’s language. Not that any of them would do much better rather it’s all Alinsky tactics to control with shame.
Getting back to my original challenge I can guarantee you even the most feral cats will drink a saucer of milk if you set one out for them. Domestication hasn’t moved that needle in any direction.
Props! Well outlined & well said!!
Here’s an interesting set of Studies done with Crows that you might find provocative in that it postulates & then proves generational learning being passed onto off-spring….& if it’s done by crows then it certainly is done by supposedly feral felines if not a host of other “Animals” wild or not.
We ALL have much to learn & consider with regards to Epigenetic expression!! []
1). []
2). []
3). []
There was even a PBS Programme presentation on the Multi-generational experiment where in it proved that the Crow Parents passed on to their Off-spring (Either covertly or inherently) the recognition of faces in human beings which invariably was passed onto the subsequent grand-fathered generation of crows no less!!.
Wish I could find it for you, I think you would find it interesting.
Domesticated or Feral…traits are passed down epigenetically.
These traits also comprise certain penchants for certain foods along with your corporeal-chemical reaction to those foods (Research the epigenetic expression of the Obesity factor that “Skipped” over a generation of Irish emigrants due to their Grand-parents encounter with the Potato Famine in Ireland as an example).
Feral cats would still share the trait or affinity for “Milk” set out before them as a result.
These types of studies lend credence to a slew of uncontrollable (Favourable or not) beliefs & behaviours that all of us express on a lifetime basis….much to the chagrin of ourselves as well as those around us.
Food for thought!
Cheers for remaining thoughtful & in depth with your follow-ups….such treatises & retorts such as yours are intriguing & invigorating!!
So much education and so little common sense. ANY predatory mammal (and perhaps others) will consume milk every chance they get. I don’t suppose they often get the chance to pour a glass though, right? Of course, they get it from making a kill. But don’t think for a moment that it’s simply collateral consumption. They will devour the mammary glands and lick up any drop they can. And yes, dogs and cats are excellent evidence of this. No need to ask the crows.
SO, in other words?? I need to go eat proverbial crow??, lolz
Actually, Carnivores (The only animals with a penchant for such skulduggery inflicted upon other animals) only go for either the Sick, the aged or the unprotected foundlings.
They neither can nor are inclined to go after perfectly healthy & robust animals.
They also devour the Intestines and guts almost immediately & allow the muscle-meat to “age” appropriately, or in other words to “Cook” a bit before coming back for revisits.
So, most often than naught ? such consumption is in fact if not indeed collateral incidental consumption since most lactating mammals are not the dine-upon dujour of carnivores.
Not so much for me, I’ve been Vegan since attending University…oddly?? Here in the States no less.
How hard a load was it?? well, I worked full time AND carried a full time semester finishing a year early by also attending Summer sessions.
My Secondary schooling was more challenging than the University here in the States.
Allow the meat to age??? So verbose and so daft.
And “only go for the sick, aged or unprotected foundlings”?? Your trolling, right? For anyone who might read this, carnivores are opportunistic. Period.
Wow, the more of your post I read…. Apparently predators aren’t even able to go after healthy or robust prey, according to Mr or Ms TenThousandWords.
I am 77 years old and have had at least 3 glasses of milk every day of my life. My bones are strong and I am strong and very healthy. I am dumb founded by all the stupidity in the world with so called scientists coming up with these lame ideas – like milk is bad for us. Last winter I slipped on some ice and had a really hard fall onto concrete where I landed on my left elbow. I believe without the life time of milk I would have shattered my arm or elbow. But nothing was damaged. It hurt for a couple of weeks but that was all. My mother hardly ever drank milk and when she was in her mid 70’s she got up out of her chair in her home and fell on her carpet and broke her hip. I don’t need any more proof than that and I will have another glass of milk with dinner tonight.
Your response reminds me of the degenerating aspects of the Coal & tar Industry’s, the Sugar Plantation advocates and a host of other brain-washed talking heads advocating for some “Thing” when the insidiousness of the “Thing” is not fully or at best shallowly known..Where, pray-tell, do any of the other mammalian animals “Get” their strong bones from??.
From drinking Cows milk or that of any other intra-species & hosts??.
Actually?? From what does the COW make their milk from??.
Do cows align themselves to secretly drink their own milk or that of their fellow cow-mates when people are not watching in order to strengthen their bones??.
For 77 Years of age your response shows a total lack of critical & educated thinking and horrifically if I might be so frank-spoken?? of abject imbecility!!
Are not the same attributes of the foods we eat accountable for the inherent calcium up-take & subsequent assimilation of Calcium that makes for strong bones??
Here are the Scientific facts though:.
It’s also the reason that Ant-Acids like “TUMS” are also Calcium depleting although hey purport to have a base of calcium.
Calcium needs stomach acid in order to be absorbed by the human body….if one neutralises it stupidly with an “Anti-Acid”??…then you can have a wheel-barrel full of Calcium & it simply cannot nor will not be catalyzed nor absobed.
Knowing this, you’ll understand why statistics show that countries
with the lowest consumption of dairy products also have the lowest
fracture incidence in their population..”
“Consumption of dairy products, particularly at age 20 years, was
associated with an increased risk of hip fracture in old age.
(“Case-Control Study of Risk Factors for Hip Fractures in the Elderly”.
American Journal of Epidemiology. Vol. 139, No. 5, 1994).
But?? Your anecdotal evidence of 77 years coupled with your own self-assumptive hubris will no doubt convince yourself other-wise.
Oh well….maybe some-one else on-the-fence will read into this the factual versus the ass-umptive ass-ertions and reach their own educated conclusions.
Thanks for the very positive response. I felt at the end that you are a member of obama’s global warming terrorist group. Good luck in your life for what ever it will amount to.
This Casmige person is either some sort of disinformation agent or malevolent alien from Zeta Reticuli. But most definitely the most delusional narcissist in the interweb.
re: “some sort of disinformation agent” really?? Click my icon…you’ll see that I’m a Didactic and a top commentator…..I always supply links to bolster my opinions & portents….. Now an Alien I am…but LEGALLY Emigrated from The GWN. “narcissist in the interweb”…”Interweb”, seriously?? Watch too much Gas-Monkey Garage maybe much??, lolz…”Interweb”…hahahahahaha!!
You’re a didactic in the way of Saul Alinsky only with A LOT more empty words. Your links bolster your opinion with other opinion, terribly weak correlational studies, and pretense. But the fact that you’re a top commenter, oh well my mistake. How lofty and prestigious of you. Yup narcissistic. So much you don’t even get the “interweb” bite. Sounds like you might still be under 30 and less than fully engaged in a productive life except in your own head.
Sorry,”in the way of Saul Alinsky” Nope, Strike 1…although I did Attend University at Illinois @ Chicago.
Re: “terribly weak correlational studies” Really?? Well, I guess you could find a study to bolster a women living in a shoe perhaps but my links are usually scientific based studies, well, because of my back-ground actually.
Strike 2,
Re: “Sounds like you might still be under 30 and less than fully engaged in a productive life except in your own head.”
Nope. Graduated University in a span of 3 years & in 1983, Hopefully even you can do the math?.
Always voted in ALL Elections local & National since I Emigrated & received the Duty/Responsibility to vote.
Never voted for a Demon-Crap in my tenure as a Citizen….although most repugnican’ts are merely DC’s in Sheep’s clothing & pretense.
What’s funny?? Is I’d bet a Benjamin that you’ve nary HALF the voting stat’s as I have.
“Interweb”: Only hillbilly’s & supposed jack-legged monkey-star garage Mechanic’s use that moronic onionesque term…
Strike 3, you’re OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTT!
Yup, too full of yourself to understand common sense. “In the way of Saul Alinsky” didn’t reference any political persuasion but simply your use of word ‘didactic’ to humbly describe yourself. He too was a self described teacher and spewed BS and disinformation. And I’ll stand by my comment about the weak studies. And if you are indeed in your 50’s and still this hung up on yourself while apparently doing a bang up job at making your mark on the world through Internet forums, , um well if only you were indeed under 30. There might have been hope for you.
You can go back to your baseball game now. I’ll go back to fixing my car. I can actually do that.
Bravo!! (On being able to work on your car).
The Flower Moon Beckons your eager repose!
Not to brag, but I put myself through University helping others working on cars in an ethical informative basis in lieu of shystering people with voodoo mechanic works.
Just got through doing an Automatic to 5 Speed Manual Transmission Swap on my 2000 e46 When the automatic Transmission went out (Reverse rear Hub Ring-Land Broke: A Known defect)…including the reprogramming of the DME/ECM from “Automatic over to Manual 5 speed.
I HATE getting my hands dirty however, to this day?? I still help people out with diagnosis & repair on their vehicles.
it’s the Saul Alinsky “Community Activists & Socialism” penchant in me perhaps…..(Did you catch that acronym?? I made a tongue-in-cheek Joke that includes my name!!).
I’m MUCH more a Russell Kirk & William F. Buckley Jr. fond-adherent.
Oh, while I’m narcissistically being a braggart? I forgot to mention that I do HVAC Work (Cars & Residential) along with Plumbing & Electrical work (Had to relocate & update my own electrical panel in the Condo after several Electricians said it was an impossible job to do, which is funny, because I’m no certified/licensed nor schooled electrician? But I did the job in 6 hours & spent $250.00USD on the Updated Fuse-Box & 2 Junction-Boxes).
My Neighbors tap me for assistance with things because they KNOW without a doubt that I do a job right the first time without skulduggery nor with any tomfoolery and with a commitment to doing it thusly without cutting corners or trying to maximise my hourly rate at the expense of others or cutting corners because of some sort of inbred penchant towards slothful niggardness.
“American’s” Used to be constituted that way….about 2 generations back-ward though.
I LOATHE American Baseball almost as much as I do American Foot-Ball….& Hockey, so leave that jib-jab out.
Organised Sports & the adherents to them are nothing but fools with their time AND their Money.
But enough about me….lolz.
You just know I could go on & on, & On, & On, right??, lolz
Hope you’re having some nice almost frozen beers while you work on your car.
Not to brag? That’s all you do. And you are good at it, along with internet research and regurgitation. You overplay and aren’t even credible. No one with all your knowledge and experience would waste so much time being an internet “didactic”. You’ve so blinded yourself with delusion on grandeur. But if this is your way of self-affirmation then, live and let live right. I call BS to everything you say. It’s not hard really. But it doesn’t matter. This isn’t any kind of real world and I guess everyone needs a way to feel accomplished or connected. Reminds me of video game addicts or People Magazine readers. So, hagd, or lolz or afk or gjyo or whatever the coolest web speak is these days. Your world, not mine thankfully.
By the way, did you do that conversion or did DS&M and Spec Motorsports do it? Geeze, apparently even on other forums your a pompous wind bag. But thanks for teaching me the power of cut-and-paste internet research. So quick and easy!
This is Fun!!
I throw something out *there* & you swat at it just like a cat!!
I like Cats!
Oddly?
Spec Motorsports did do a Custom True Dual Exhaust Install + Headers on the Sport wagon.
(You’re not a local are you?? Maybe we could meet at the Flying Saucer Beer Emporium!!???)
I Did the Transmission conversion myself. Took a Saturday & A Sunday to complete.
Never heard of DS&M, unless you meant Madam Deidre’s S&M Services, =P~
(For those days when I can’t get enough abuse in these forums)
Other Forums?? Pompous Wind-Bag??, Wowza, & for that I’m really hurt!
Copy & Paste I do …The Links to bolster my stance rather than pulling them out of my arse.
My apologies for not being able to thoroughly convince you on the electrical fuse box/panel R&R.
I could come over, bring some Ice Cold Molson’s & help you work on your car tho~?
I agree with you on this virtual world of arm-chair veritable verbiagable jousting contest.
But I’m on LInkedin, guess that’s fake also??.
I have to Brag, My Father Beat me with the strangest of things when I was young, but it was always the Fireplace Wooden Clown sculpture he used often-times that haunts me to this day….& he knew it gathering much transactional glee from the trauma by taking me to the Faire many times every time it came to towne and attending the clown shows…oh wait!! I just had a Break-though!!
Maybe I’m oddly drawn to these forums as some sort of virtual clown show in an apparent sub-conscious attempt to deal with the boy-hood trauma.
YES! That’s it.
THANK YOU Mr. Tilkins……you have helped me gain a foot-hold with your little know method of psychological therapeutic Wisconsionian therapy!
Thank you!
(Bows as deeply as possible in respectful homage)
Did it yourself?? You mean this isn’t you??
Go ahead, delete that (loooong comment). You got nothin. Vapid, verbose and foolish. Yup you got me though. I bit on your idiocy about milk and was mesmerized by your self-glorification. This internet discussion stuff showcases the fools so I’m out.
Well, there’s a story behind that post, but you wouldn’t believe it if I told you so, I won’t offer it.
I guess you’re not going to add or follow me now??
Gosh, these things are such an arduous task to endeavour to accomplish.
The only type of following I apparently can get is driving the speed-limit on the Highway in the left lane.
But all those eventually pass me by waving at me with a single finger that I think means I’m “#1”, but I’m not too sure about American Finger Gestures & their meanings.
That’s not you? So did you do it yourself or not?
Was the misspelling of my name intentional after looking at all my social media pages?
tom, don’t be too hard on him, i stay off post like this most of the time because of this type of idiocy, but if not for the internet his type would be relegated to a circle jerk with his other intelligent “top commenters” in their secret place.
thanks for proving the gist of my post, okay we believe you, you smart fellow, why you waste time on us uneducated folks, why you not making millions on your smarts, why you don’t be president, why you not drink mommy milk when you baby. i bet the internet is your best friend
im not sure but looking at the posts on here it sounds like someone actually feeds their cat milk. i didn’t think anyone actually did that anymore, but then it also looks like most of the posts on here don’t really have anything to do with the article, most just trying to convince someone how smart they are. | https://freedomhealthnews.com/diet-and-exercise/7-reasons-to-stop-drinking-milk-today-and-1-reason-not-to/ | 2018-10-15T17:07:41 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |
The Stone Roses are back. But what can new acts learn from this?
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, chances are that you’ll be aware that The Stone Roses have returned with their first recorded output in over twenty years. It’s been a long four years since they first reunited, so this has been a long awaited and highly anticipated moment.
Unfortunately, it’s difficult to say that the wait was worth it. New single All For One catches a vibe from between the band’s first and second studio albums, combining the rave-inspired rhythms with a guitar tone that is much more rock-ready than dancefloor filler. This is fine, but the release is dire when you consider the lyrical content.
Ian Brown has been hailed as a “godlike genius” for his lyricism, and his solo career has demonstrated that he is capable of working together stunning sentences of meaningful sentiment. So when the majority of this track is an absurdly simplistic chant, you’ve got to question whether that time was better spent elsewhere. The new single would be acceptable as a break in a live show, rousing the crowds, but doesn’t deserve the honour of studio time.
So what should new musicians take from this? There is a balance between a good studio track and a track that works well live, and good songs come from striking that balance perfectly. This single embraces the live singalong scenario fully and, as a result, is arguably the worst comeback single of all time. The Stone Roses’ first album, however, shows how these balances can – and should – be done: well-formed lyrics delivered in a straightforward way, with a chorus that is simple enough to sing but that doesn’t occupy the bulk of the run time.
Likewise, don’t rest on your achievements. The Stone Roses were good in the 1980s and their touring success in recent years has been due to their absense and nostalgia of that time. Ian Brown was voted an excellent lyricist for his content. But you wouldn’t get any indication of either of those accomplishments from listening to this single.
Always innovate and never fall back into the comfort of your successes. And certainly never take a lazy approach to songwriting when you’ve been building expectations for two decades. | https://freshbeats365.com/2016/05/14/the-stone-roses-all-for-one-analysis/ | 2018-10-15T17:30:39 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |

Walking home up Boston Common after buying the Sunday paper (see the previous post) I came across these guys offloading a truck. There was a lot of discussion about what stuff went and what stayed and with a little judicious cropping I was able to bring their hands into the picture as a focal element.
By the way the elapsed time between the earlier tourist picture and this one was less than 15 minutes. (The fickle gods of street shooting smile occasionally.)

Inviting Children to the wedding. Do or don’t?
This topic is always one that creates great discussion. If you have kids yourself then you probably want to invite them, however, it’s like having pets at weddings, where do you draw the line?
Do you only invite children who are family; your own kids, nieces and nephews? Or, what if your best man or bridesmaids have children?
One thing to remember is this is your wedding and it’s your choice. Don’t let others decide for you! Be clear on save the dates and invitations whether children will be invited so that parents can plan accordingly.
No one likes a screaming child through the ceremony so maybe suggest that parents sit on the end of an aisle and that way if a child does become upset they can make a fuss free exit to another room.
The next question is where do you seat them during the meal? Quite often kids will want to sit with their parents, especially if they are younger, so be sure to plan for this. You’ll need to think about what food to order for them too. A kids table may seem like a great idea but be sure to have a couple of older children sitting at it too, in case they need some help!
Children can bring humour and fun to a wedding particularly on the dancefloor! However, weddings can involve a lot of sitting around and can be a bit boring for the little ones so if you are thinking about inviting them then be sure to keep them entertained.

Jaguar XF vs Tornado
Storm chaser ‘Tornado Tim’ Baker drove the Jaguar XF through America’s Midwest in search of a tornado as this year’s storm season came to a dramatic close.
A storm chaser’s role is vital to help predict tornadoes and save lives, so the XF was the perfect mobile lab for the chase team to catch their tornado and collect vital data.
The chase, which covered 2,000 miles (3, 218kms) of highway and farm tracks through seven US states, saw the XF evade baseball-sized hailstones and drive through floods and high winds before intercepting a twister on the Iowa-Illinois border.

After the encounter, Baker said: .”
The chase began with the biggest storm of the 2016 season looming over the American Midwest, with a potential 95 million people in its path. It took Tim from Denver, Colorado, right up into Minnesota and down to Illinois.
During the chase, Baker met Brian Smith, Warning Coordination Meteorologist at the Omaha office of the National Weather Service (NWS), which uses radar data to help scientists issue prompt, life-saving warnings to agencies and the general public.

Tornado chasers like Tim, and the vehicles they use, are a vital part of the modern network of weather warning. Having people on the ground to confirm the storms and analyse their path can help experts study them and predict future disasters..
Kevin Stride, Vehicle Line Director for Jaguar XF said: “This was a real showcase for the XF’s capabilities..”
“As expected, the tornado chase provided some extremely diverse challenges and we knew this would be a real genuine test for the XF, so we were delighted to see it handle all the conditions with ease…and come back in one piece.”

March 23 (Reuters) – The Baltic Exchange’s main sea freight index, tracking rates for ships carrying dry bulk commodities, rose on Wednesday, supported by firmer rates across vessel segments.
The overall index that factors in the rates for capesize, panamax, supramax and handysize shipping vessels, was up three points to 401 points.
The capesize index rose 10 points or 5.38 percent to 196 points.
Average daily earnings for capesizes, which typically transport 150,000-tonne cargoes such as iron ore and coal, were up $11 to $2,005.
The panamax index was up three points at 458 points.
Average daily earnings for panamaxes, which usually carry coal or grain cargoes of about 60,000 to 70,000 tonnes, rose $29 to $3,673.
Among smaller vessels, the supramax index rose four points to 468 points, while the handysize index was up two points at 266 points. (Reporting by Apeksha Nair in Bengaluru)

Title: The Holy Maidservant: Blessed Aniela Salawa (1881-1922) and the Making of the Modern Domestic Worker Saint in Europe at the Turn of the Century
Abstract: This presentation analyzes the role of the Catholic Church in professional organizing of Polish-speaking female domestic workers around 1900. As domestic work in urban centers relied mostly on migrants from the countryside, the Catholic clergy and institutions often assumed some patriarchal prerogatives in representing female servants in professional relationships, as well as in urban communities. Many housemaids welcomed that shift of patriarchal power from heads of their families to the Church as consensual and contractual. Though symbolic rather than legal, this change of patriarchal agents had important social and economic consequences, as it helped to redefine the professional and personal respectability of Catholic female domestic workers. New forms of women's activism in religious institutions became regarded as a form of symbolic capital, influencing housemaids’ prospects of employment, as well as their relationships with employers.
My argument focuses on life of Aniela Salawa, who worked as a maid in Cracow, and strove for spiritual perfection as a member of many prayer groups, religious institutions (including the Third Order of St. Francis), and Catholic professional organizations (such as St. Zita's Society). Already in her lifetime, the local Church recognized Aniela Salawa’s personal and professional conduct as a model for other female domestic workers. Aniela Salawa’s cult developed immediately after her death, and was confirmed by her beatification in 1991. Though focusing on a case-study from Poland, this presentation places Aniela Salawa’s spiritual and professional formation in the wider context of constructing turn-of-the-century working class female sainthood in Europe.

Thessaloniki is taking one more step to promote its tourism, after an initiative taken by the city’s Professional Chamber. The first Tourism Festival in Thessaloniki has been organized on the first pier of the city’s marina with the assistance of Thessaloniki Port Authority SA and Thessaloniki International Fair (TIF)-Helexpo.
The events of the festival will take place from May 16 to 19, under the auspices of the Ministry for Macedonia and Thrace, the Region of Central Macedonia and the Municipality of Thessaloniki.
According to the president of the Professional Chamber of Thessaloniki, Mihalis Zorpidis, the festival will give the opportunity to those participating to show their touristic products shortly before the summer holidays.
The exhibition will be framed by a number of events in order to attract the public to this corner of the marina.
This obsession some alleged Greeks have with tourism harms our homeland. It has turned a major portion of our workforce into lazy minded vomit and feces cleaning janitors and maids and bartenders. I fair to remember any pages in Organon or Plato’s Republic preaching the wisdom of cleaning up feces and vomit of tourists.
What happened to mathematics? Physics? Biology? The educational focus on countless other hellenic classics to produce our own technology and idea?
I fail to see where the Hellenism part of any so called Greeks that try to earn a quick buck in minimum wage low skilled tourism jobs. Their behavior is no different than the Skopians frauds that try to “proudly” pawn off ancient Greek artifacts as their own creation.

Modern Archeology Gives Us A Pretty Good
Idea Of How They Were Armed.
Battlefield archaeology has given modern historians exact proof of the sort of weapons used by both sides during the Plains Indian Wars of 1860 through 1890. The most famous of these archaeology digs happened in the 1980s at the Little Bighorn Battlefield (formerly Custer Battlefield). However a smaller dig was done at the Big Hole Battlefield in 1991 and I was fortunate to have participated in it.
As might be expected there were few surprises as to what sort of weapons were used by the US Army. By the time of these two fights they were armed with US Model 1873 .45-caliber rifles and carbines (trapdoors) and cavalrymen were also issued .45-caliber Colt revolvers. Conversely the Indians (Sioux and Cheyenne at the Little Bighorn and Nez Perce at the Big Hole) used a hodge-podge of firearms. Some of them, however, were surprising. For example Winchester only started shipping Model 1873 .44 WCFs (.44-40s) in quantity in 1874. But just 2 years later enough had filtered “out West” and into Indian warriors’ hands that archaeologists have been able to determine at least eight were used in the Little Bighorn Battle of June 1876. Four were fired in the much smaller fight with Nez Perce in August 1877.
How can they say with authority how many of a certain rifle type were fired? Their proof is the recovered cartridge cases which were tested forensically in police labs. The results of firing pin and extractor inspections show the cases came from eight different Winchester ’73s in one case and four in another. How can they say the Indians fired the Winchesters instead of the soldiers? One reason is there is no historical record of any soldier packing a personally owned Winchester at either fight. A second reason is that the ’73’s recovered cartridge cases were metal detected from known Indian firing positions on the battlefields.
This Plains Indian warrior is shown photographed with his
Winchester Model 1866. Photo courtesy Herb Peck Jr. collection.
But Winchester ’73s were a mere drop in the bucket compared to the number of Winchester ’66s and Henry repeating rifles used by Indians in the Little Bighorn fight. Literally thousands of .44 Henry Rimfire cases have been recovered from the Little Bighorn Battlefield and related Reno-Benteen Siege site. (And also from privately owned land in the surrounding vicinity.) Archaeologists posit that the number of Henry and Winchester ’66s at those connected fights numbered well over 200. Ten of those two .44 rimfire rifles were identified with the Nez Perce battle.
(Interestingly, two civilians attached to Major Reno’s command at the Little Bighorn Battle also carried Henry .44 Rimfire rifles. They were Charley Reynolds, a white scout and Isaiah Dorman a Negro hired as an interpreter. Both were killed there.)
At both battle sites only a few Spencer repeating carbines were represented. That is interesting because until the US Army adopted Model 1873 .45-70s for their cavalry regiments, they mostly carried Spencers—mostly .56-50 in caliber. You might think that Sioux and Cheyenne would have captured more between the mid-1860s and the great 1876 battle. Since the Nez Perce never fought the US Government prior to 1877 theirs perhaps came by routine trade.
Two favorite firearms of Indian warriors in the 1860s and 1870s were .44 rimfire Henry
rifles (top) and Winchester Model 1866s. The latter one is the saddle ring carbine version.
That brings us to another factor. Just how did Indians acquire their firearms? Some were given to them by the US Government, many of which were cartridge-firing conversions of Sharps percussion carbines. These were chambered as .50-70 and given to reservation residents for “hunting” purposes. They ended up being pointed at US soldiers either by being traded to non-reservation “hostiles” or by their owners jumping the reservations. At least 3-dozen of these .50-70s were used at the Little Bighorn Battle and perhaps one at the Big Hole. (A .50-70 case recovered was definitely from a Sharps but exact model could not be determined.)
Another method by which Indians acquired US-marked firearms was by capturing them. For instance in the earliest confrontation with troops in the Nez Perce campaign the Indians killed at least 36 members of the US 1st Cavalry Regiment at White Bird Canyon in Idaho. All their weapons and ammunition fell into Nez Perce hands and some were definitely fired from their positions at soldiers at the Big Hole site.
At the Little Bighorn the captured US weapons were turned on the 7th Cavalrymen much quicker. The archaeologists have been able to plot on maps places were specific carbines were being fired from early cavalry positions and then their fired cartridges showed up in positions known to have been later held by Sioux and Cheyenne warriors. On the second day of the Little Bighorn Battle when surviving elements of the 7th Cavalry were besieged on a ridge high above the river, cartridge cases have been found that forensics identified as coming from Model 1873 carbines used the previous day on the site where Custer and his 200-plus men met their deaths.
Many Indians were armed with weapons captured from the US Army. This Model 1873
“trapdoor” carbine was purchased in modern times on the Northern Cheyenne Reservation in Montana.
Here’s an interesting bit of ammunition information. By the time of these two battles the US Army had determined that the ammunition issued for their Model 1873 infantry rifles give objectionable recoil in the lighter cavalry carbines. The infantry loads contained 70 grains of black powder (hence the famous .45-70 name) under 405-grain bullets. For cavalry use the charge was reduced to 55 grains with the same bullet. In order to take up space left by the lighter-powder charge spacers (wads) were placed between bullet and powder or cylindrical tubes of cardboard were inserted inside the cases with the powder going inside them. Of course the wads were blown out upon firing but occasionally tubes remained in place. At both battlefields .45-caliber cases were recovered still containing cardboard tubes.
For more information about this fascinating subject of Plains Indian Wars weaponry I refer readers to A Sharp Little Affair by Douglas Scott and Archaeological Insights Into The Custer Battle by Scott, Fox and Harmon.

Duke,
About a year ago you published an article about the Sharps rifle. You said that the “Big Fifty” was a standard Sharps in .50/110. As much as I respect you and your knowledge, I’m afraid that is incorrect. The “Big Fifty” was a completely different rifle, which fired a .50/120 round, weighed 17 pounds, and had a Monte Carlo stock. I sent two letters to the editor but they weren’t printed or, evidently, passed on to you. I even found a picture of a “Big Fifty.” Bat Masterson, and all of the other big-time buffalo hunters, used the “Big Fifty.” The 1500+ yard shot, at the battle of Adobe Walls, was made with one of these special rifles. I very much enjoy all of your articles because I, too, have an eclectic interest in firearms.
Respectfully submitted,
Richard Gearon
Duke,
I would like to know more about 44-40’s used in “….the much smaller fight with Nez Perce in August 1877.” I have yet to get further than the Bighorn Battles thus far!!! I did discover another 44-40 case online at the The Canada Alamosa museum in Arizona. I’d like to get more information on that one too.
For those looking for more information about Bighorn weapons artifacts, get the following books;
Archaeological Insights into The Custer Battle, An Assessment of the 1984 Field Season, Scott 1987
Archaeological Perspectives on the Battle of the Little Bighorn, Scott 1989
(online report) Archaeological Mitigation Report…Little Bighorn Battlefield, Scott 2006
Uncovering History, Archaeological Investigations…Little Bighorn, Scott 2013
The books list each cartridge, case, bullet etc and the GPS location where they were found.
According to Scott, Eleven 1873 Winchesters are represented at the Battle by physical evidence.
I gathered a good bit of information from Dr. Scott and his literature. I also took the chart from the 1987 book and mapped out the Custer Battlefield case locations on google earth. I noticed the following:
All three leveraction rifles…..Henry, 66′ and 73′,
From a small knoll east of Custer Hill is estimated 265 yard shots, “Henryville” to Calhoun Hill varied from 75-200 yard shots, from Greasy Grass Ridge to another ridge between Greasy Grass and Calhoun Hill is about 400 yard shots, Three locations near the Reno-Benteen defense line….420 yards, 212 yards and 170 yards.
Keep up the great Articles Mike,

Copyleft and Ownership
The GPL is what’s known as a copyleft license, which is designed to add additional rights for the end users which would otherwise be limited by copyright laws. For example, it gives the user the right to duplicate and create derivative works. But an important distinction is that copyleft licences such as the GPL don’t actually replace the original copyright, they are merely supplemental. The original author of the code still holds the copyright, and is ultimately its sole owner.
This allows for the concept of dual licensing: wherein the sole author of a program can chose to license a program under multiple licenses at the same time, one of which generally being more permissive than the other. For example, the Windows version of a program could be closed source, while the Linux version is open source; even if the actual code is identical. More often, this is used to provide one license that applies for commercial use of a program, and more permissive licensing for individuals.
Some open source projects, generally large ones with corporate backing, occasionally have what’s known as a Contributor License Agreement. This document explains any additional requirements and rules for submitting source code to a project, and will usually have a clause explaining that the submitter is granting their copyright to the project’s parent entity. For example, here is the relevant section from Google’s “Individual Contributor License Agreement”:.
It’s worth noting that Linux does not utilize such an agreement, and the copyright for any submitted source code therefore remains the property of the original developer.
Reputational Losses
So if a developer is free to license their code in diametrically opposed ways (simultaneously closed and open source), and it’s acknowledged that in the absence of a Contributor License Agreement they retain the uncontested ownership of any code they write, the situation becomes tricky. Does it not follow that they have the right to walk back a promise to make their source code open, if a scenario presents itself in which the author feels it’s no longer appropriate?
Eric S. Raymond, one of the founders of the Open Source Initiative and author of The Cathedral and the Bazaar believes they may have that right. In a post to the Linux Kernel Mailing list, Eric specifically addresses the threat some developers have made about attempting to pull their code from the kernel:.
Section 6 of the Berne Convention explains that the original author of a work, even if they have granted their rights to another entity, can object to its further use if they feel it has been utilized in a way which “would be prejudicial to his honor or reputation.” So in theory a disgruntled developer need only convince a judge that the maintainers of a project have damaged their reputation, say by publicly banning them for violating the Code of Conduct, and have a case for forcing the project to stop using their code regardless of preexisting licensing agreements.
Critical Language
But the question remains, can a developer actually “revoke” the rights given under the GPL? If we’re talking about the GPLv2 (which Linux is licensed under), the closest thing we find is Section 4:
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
Interestingly, if we take a look at the GPLv3, we see relevant language was made much stronger:
All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated conditions are met.
Some believe the distinction here may prove to be critical. In a legal context, it’s generally understood that “revoke” means an agreement was retracted by the entity offering it (here, the original developer), while “terminate” simply means to end an agreement. This leaves room for interpretation, and one could potentially argue that since the GPLv2 does not specifically state the developer can’t retract the offer, it remains an option.
Here Be Dragons
Between the Eric S. Raymond’s assertion that a developer could claim divisive elements within the project are damaging to their reputation and the fact that the current licensing arrangement of Linux means there’s no specific language saying developers can’t withdraw their submissions, the situation becomes murky. The truth is, nobody is really sure yet. We’re in uncharted waters, and old assumptions may not hold up to legal scrutiny if it comes to it.
It’s also worth mentioning that the concept of “Promissory Estoppel” could come into play; which essentially prevents an individual from going back on a promise if the other party took action based on that promise. In other words, if you told somebody they could use your code and they used it to produce a successful project, you can’t then go back on that promise because it would be to their detriment.
Practically speaking, even if an individual built a case saying they wanted their chunk of code removed from Linux, it would be physically impossible. In lieu of being able to delete their code from the now-copyright-infringing devices, said developer would likely receive some monetary settlement. Which would still be a terrible precedent to set for the open source community: get mad, get paid.
At the end of the day, talk of revoking open source licenses is misguided. To paraphrase the character of Ian Malcolm from Jurassic Park: angry developers are so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they haven’t stopped to think if they should. If legal precedent is set that a developer can take their source code back, it will be ruinous to the open source community. Its taken decades for free and open source software to rise to its current prominence in the software world, but the rash actions of a few unhappy developers could be enough to drag it back down to being little more than a wishful idea.

“which essentially prevents an individual from going back on a promise if the other party took action based on that promise” … that would also prevent the changing of that code of conduct since the new version is too much different from the original one and be to the detriment of the party affected.
As I see it, most developers are not desiring that much to remove their contributions, but most people are really opposed to the change in the rules of participation and the whole mistreatment of members due to things not related to their programming contributions.
If necessary, it may be useful to people really try ( and be able to ) remove their contributions, to help define some points of the open source situation that were never considered before.
“… that would also prevent the changing of that code of conduct …”
Does it? You don’t have to be in the kernel development group to enjoy the use of kernel code. Kicking them out of the group isn’t really taking their code away from them. A person who cannot contribute to Linux can still use Linux. They can even fork Linux, compete against it and try to attract their own developers to their own new group.
Even if the new CoC is abused to the worst extent of what people fear* I would argue that a group should have the right to set (and change) their own rules. Let them shoot themselves in the foot (if that’s what they are up to). It’s ok, some combination of old and new developers will fork a new project from the ashes and only those people that caused the problem will be left with nothing of value.
* – Which remains to be seen but the dig on Theodore Tso is not a good sign (regardless of what you think of him and his views Sage Sharp’s tweets were was not an appropriate move and the Linux kernel development group is NOT the appropriate forum for such debates)
The size of this comment section will overlow internet.
Starting with “no take back”. If piracy has imparted one lesson is that copyright, or not, once it’s out there, control becomes a figment of one’s imagination.
“If piracy has imparted one lesson is that copyright, or not, once it’s out there, control becomes a figment of one’s imagination.”
Uh, yes and no. Certainly, it’s impossible to put the genie back in the bottle. You lose all effective control. But you do not lose legal control. When it comes to a movie pirate, it’s simply impossible to use legal means to control individual pirates. Similarly, regardless of legal status, it would be impossible to control who’s using your code in a Linux kernel running on their home computer. But it’s much more feasible to sue a company that releases a product which runs a Linux kernel. The easiest example is Android phones. You could demand that Samsung and every other producer of Android phones stop using your code or pay you for the privilege of doing so. If they refuse, you can sue the hell out of them.
Well as “Tivoization”, “web services loophole” and DRM, (and lets not get into patents as a backdoor, thanks Oracle!), have demonstrated technology will usually keep ahead of legal as a defense. Hence majority of open source being under a speedily revised “Oops!” license (GPLv2 vs 3).
While I agree that GPLv2 is a “Oops!” or beta license, it was hardly “speedily” revised, came out in 1991, wasn’t fixed until 2007. It definitely presents a unique problem, the best we can do individually is to make sure we use always use the v3 version from now on and encourage our friends to do the same.
It’s not just piracy, it’s just how ideas work. The concept of intellectual property as we know it today is actually very young and kind of silly. It’s become highly tuned to favor corporate rights over every other principle, as have most aspects of our culture.
If libraries were invented tomorrow, we’d call them pirates. Pretending like IP protects hardworking creators, inventors and such is only a PR-friendly excuse. It protects the profits of those who have far more than enough and holds back human progress.
“If libraries were invented tomorrow, we’d call them pirates.” lol this is so true. I’ve never thought of this example, but it really does put copyright laws in perspective.
Why would we do that when libraries pay for their content like everyone else. Piracy, by it’s very definition is the act of NOT paying for content. The OTHER argument tried was libraries effect on sales, but that’s not piracy.
Nah. I’m sure HaD is keeping the size under control by rejecting a LOT of the comments they don’t agree with.
Looks like they agree with you then?
“It’s worth noting that Linux does not utilize [a Contributor License Agreement], and the copyright for any submitted source code therefore remains the property of the original developer.”
Seems like this is likely to change in lieu of the pending threat that someone could damage the project because they feel wronged.
That seems very likely. The Linux dev culture has always been very relaxed (which is why the new CoC came as such as a shock to many), so they felt like they didn’t need a CLA before. But seems those days may be numbered.
“The Linux dev culture has always been very relaxed” falls on its face when you look at (past?) Linus himself.
Relaxed in terms of bureaucracy and litigation, not necessarily socially.
Even if the terms of the license are changed at version x.0, any person – so long as they maintain the terms of the original license – is free to fork the FOSS project at version x.0 and continue it’s free and open development; even if the original stake holders make the license more restrictive for the trunk.
Once you release code into the wild as FOSS, you are not free to take your toys and go home. It’s not ‘your’ code anymore. Only the attribution is yours. They copyright is just there to grant you the ability to dual release under less restrictive terms (usually for a fee). It’s even more complicated as soon as the second contributor adds just one line to the project without a CLA. Then the question of who ‘owns’ it gets more and more cloudy with the mix of authorship.
This may be a delightful legal ponderance. But it will never see a significant legal judgement.
The whole point of the article is that people might adtually be able to take their toys and go home, at least in some jurisictions.
“at least in some jurisictions”
Now apply that universally. If copyright allowed retroactively revoking the license, Microsoft would have done this LONG ago.
When they started their big push on forcing Windows 10, imagine if it really was legal for them to revoke your license to ALL past Microsoft products you paid for.
A license is a license, so it’s all the same thing. If this was legal, it would have been done by now.
With the current US copyright law, that means after just 8-10 reboots of your not-windows-10 and not-cloud-office software, penalties would be in the millions of dollars ($150k per boot, as each boot would be an unauthorized copy into ram)
MS didnt have to offer a free upgrade to Windows 10. However fighting piracy at home is a loosing battle. MS lets people use their products in their everyday lives so that those same people will demand familiar MS products at the work place. And thats where they reap their profits. Its why they give schools free licences.
I haven’t read the latest version of the GPL, but if it follows the spirit of earlier versions, then you can’t even continue development of something you’ve declared FOSS, under a more restrictive license. That is, if you wrote version 1.0, and don’t like what people have done with it, you can’t even fork it to 2.0 without keeping it FOSS. That is, there is no provision in the GPL that allows even the original copyright owner to de-FOSS it.
You’re simply wrong – because you are looking in a license, not in copyright law.
The original author of course retains the right to offer their own work, past or future, under a different license.
However, they do not have the right to offer work which includes the GPL contributions of others under a non-GPL license, unless they secure either permission of those others or assignment of the ownership of those contributions.
There doesn’t have to be such a provision in the GPL. The original copyright holder still owns the copyright to the code even if they release it under the GPL, which means it’s them, not the FSF, who decides whether or not they can release the next version under a proprietary license. Owning the copyright means you have all the rights to do whatever you want with the program, even things like release the exact same program under both the GPL and a proprietary license.
Yeah, I guess that was the point of the article, so thank you for clarifying it.
But are they allowed to sue people after they’ve promised them permission? The problem with splitting hairs is you have to split all of them.
If they withdraw their permission to use the copyright, does that automatically mean they’re guaranteed to have a cause of action? Or are there cases that are unenforceable?
If they withdraw permission, they can probably demand that their name be removed. That much is clear from ESR’s argument. But it doesn’t mean they can get in the way of the project.
I think there is a flaw in the wording here. Maybe it’s pedantic but isn’t that what law is all about?
The article uses the word promise a lot in ways that I think implies the promise is to do something in the future. It’s kind of like saying “At lunch time I promise to take you out and buy you a burger”. You haven’t actually done anything yet. When code has already had the license attached, been uploaded to the repository and maybe even been distributed out to a billion random devices scattered around the world this is a different thing. It’s not a promise to do something, it’s something that has already been done. The equivalent would be like saying “You know that burger I bought you for lunch last week… yah.. I’m going to need that back now”. Obvioously it doesn’t work.
Also, imagine if things did work that way. GPLV2 code (and any other oss with no “no takebacks” clause) would be absolutely worthless. Who would accept code from anyone if there was a risk that they might be required to pull it out years later when countless other bits of code have been written to depend on it? I wouldn’t touch that stuff with a 10 foot pole!
I find your burger analogy flawed because as soon as it is consumed it isn’t possible to get it back.
Much more apropos would be a tool, given with the understanding that you won’t use it for bad things. (I say bad things intentionally because the definition is open to individual interpretation.)
Fast forward to the current dispute, the origional giver feels that the receiver is going to use the tool for “bad things” that they don’t agree with. Whereas receiver feels that they are only being morally responsible.
Hence the legal quandry, does the giver have the legal right to demand that the receiver stop using his tool? Mr. Raymond says yes.
My personal feeling is that a very vocal minority are trying to impose their views on everyone, and that if they feel that Linux and Linus are so toxic, they should make their own fork and run it however they want. If it really is better than devs will jump over to the new fork. Hell, put Pottering in charge, he’s certainly a pariah that would jump at the chance to be king.
There is no problem in getting the burger back, just use dollars or euros or whatever was used to purchase it.
In my understanding it’s not necessary to sign off your copyrights permanently anyways. There’s a termination period of any grant or transfer of copyright 35 years from the date of execution where the original author can do takebaksies during the next five years if they choose to.
.”
– U.S. Copyright Law
Basically, if the code you contributed is older than 35 years, you can’t prohibit the use of said code in products such as the Linux kernel, but you can prohibit anyone from using the code for further development. Effectively, they have to keep it as it is, or stop using it.
I am not a lawyer but I don’t think this applies. This is concerning terminating “… grant or transfer of copyright …” It’s not concerning a licensing of copyright. When you grant or transfer your copyright, you’re giving control of it to another party. Bands do this with record labels as part of their contract all the time. The band no longer owns the copyright and in fact bands have been sued for pirating their own songs. That doesn’t happen with the GPL. When you license something under the GPL, you grant others a license to use it but you retain the copyright yourself. You can turn around and license the exact same code to someone else to use in a closed source product and no one can stop you. You can’t terminate the grant or transfer of copyright with the GPL because copyright was never granted or transferred to another party.
Licenses are grants of copyright permissions.
Can someone supply a single concie paragraph summary? For the TLDR time constraint busy people please? (Me)
I heard SJW types are causing problems…. That’s all I know.
Thanks.
the clickbate headline, the SJW types are trying to hijack the Linux kernel with a code of conduct that lets them kick out anyone that doesn’t tow the party line, the nerds are telling them that if it comes to a fight they have the weapon to burn the house down
Appreciate the summary, thank you.
TOE the line. As in everyone line up with your toes on this line. Not behind it, not over it, ON it. An example, new military recruits lining up during induction, as an early step in following orders to get them to obey and work in lock-step. Don’t toe the line and you’ll get punishment.
People are angry that they don’t get to call their fellow contributors “slime-sucking fucks” and other such things on the mailing list and continue to harass them afterwards because they don’t agree with you.
If anything of this is true it may be the death of open source software. At least in countries where “law” is upheld or broken by arbitrary jury votes and behind the counter deals.
If an (ex) developer does not want to be associated with a certain open source project anymore I do grant him the right to request to have his name removed from the credits / copyright section of said project.

I don’t really understand what this is all about but it sounds bad. We need FOSS.
…or Bob Ross.
ESR is a well known racist and you should not be giving him a platform.
In your humble opinion, by your own morals and beliefs.
Noone gives a f***. All we care about is his code, we’re not inviting him to give a speech. Just like I was never interested in hearing what all those LGBT+ SJW people are doing in the bedroom. If they can deliver something useful, they can be a homophobic pansexual Apache Helicopter from the planet Blorgon-9 for all I care, and even then I wouldn’t be interested in who they are.
Anonymizing people’s names on the kernel mailing list would probably be the most efficient way to fix any bias problems, but SJW’s are never interested in stuff that actually works. Because they would still have to produce good code to get an merits, which they obviously can’t.
*Noone who actually writes code and contributes to projects.
So the “LGBT+ SJW people” are forcing you to listen to what they do in their bedrooms?
While you may not realize it things like this tells much of you as a person, as if your flippant irrelevant remarks wouldn’t do that by themselves.
ESR perhaps doesn’t force you to listen but isn’t shy of talking about his views. Do you really want to compare that with your stereotypical “LGBT+ SJW people”? Obviously you do, but then you are an idiot.
He didn’t say they were forcing him to listen. You’re putting words into his mouth to suit your own agenda.
Which is exactly what the SJW movement is doing.
“All we care about is his code”
ESR doesn’t write code. Try harder.
Exactly.
If it gets homophobes and transphobes to weep into their pillow at night, it is a good thing.
Cry more, give me delicious tears.
Literally nobody gives a shit what you want to do in your own bedroom – or to who – as long as it is at or above the age of consent. What I care about is you forcing that nonsense into literally *every* aspect of your existence as though it defines you. Not everything has to be about what you identify as. Nobody cares. If you can’t find value in your own merit, maybe you have none. If you want to marginalize yourself and act like a number, suit yourself. Just do it on your own time. Diversity is great, so long as it isn’t diversity of thought, right?
so far Its the other way around, cue Python renaming naming conventions because hurt feelings
Torvalds @ BBC interview::
Excerpts:
“So that’s my excuse for dismissing a lot of the politically correct concerns for years. I felt it wasn’t worth it. Anybody who uses the words ‘white cis male privilege’ was simply not worth my time even talking to, I felt.
.
“So in the end, my ‘I really don’t want to be too PC’ stance simply became untenable.
…. also because I don’t want to be associated with a lot of the people who complain about excessive political correctness.
”
I’m appalled that anyone, ANYONE, feels so pushed so far by SJW’s and the current movements reflected upon above that they would suggest they need to take a backseat because they are afriad of being categorised as a Nazi.
Objecting to people with an agenda you disagree with on their personal beliefs and their choices, does not a nazi make you. Even when they are shouting at you “you are a nazi”. It doesn’t make them right. Nor is it right to accept their forced narrative and view that the world needs to change because their special snowflake feels like it.
Wake the fuck up.
These are the warning signs of facism at work.
Linus’ daughter is part of the SJW crowd, she even signed the commit introducing the new CoC. Also there are strong signs that Torvalds didn’t write his apology by himself (there’s a funny mix of different Unicode punctuation characters he’s never used before, but are standard in e.g. Microsoft products, indicating that the apology was copied together from multiple sources). Someone pays his salary, the Linux Foundation is almost eyclusively made up by huge companies, they don’t want any drama and are often already infected with SJW as well.
They got him where it hurts the most. At home and in the paycheck.
Do you really think that Linus needs the company that pays his paycheck? As maintainer of Linux and creator of Git you don’t have a need to search a job. The jobs are searching you.
And let me say, I’m a really really small light in the developer sky…but there are so few good programmers out there that the jobs are searching me too.
“They” certainly did get him.
The global SJW conspiracy, funded by Soros.
You will be assimilated.
Amen. The age of PC is *OVER*.
Sounds more like he appalled by the behavior of some people online and wants to distance himself from them.
I’m confused by your attempt to blame “SJWs” for the man not wanting to be associated with bad actors online; As if those pointing out bad behavior are to blame. Especially since he is so dismissive of that crowd throughout the interview.
Honestly this seems like a pretty minor concession to a changing world. In the 90s you could still slightly be misanthropic and grumpy if you could make up for it with strong technical skills; now we require some degree of people skills from everyone. Personally I feel this is an improvement in the long run in terms of improved communication leading to more efficiency, not to mention a more inviting work environment leading to more people joining the field; but you’re free to disagree with that.
As I said below it’s a slippery slope.
Not wanting to be seen as a nazi, well I’m sorry but the SJW movement says you are eitehr with us, or you are a nazi.
There is no central ground. We are not allowed to disagree with their movement without being called a nazi or “white cis male” privilege.
The so called minority is actively opressing the views of the majority.
This majority wants to stay silent becasue they wish to keep their jobs under the pressure of saying something innocently that someone jumps on, becomes victim hurt and then gos nuts on social media against the company so that person gets terminated.
It’s happening daily.
>”The so called minority is actively opressing the views of the majority.”
Under the privilege hierarchy theory, a minority can never oppress a majority.
Hmm, so 1980’s South Africa didn’t exist? Or it’s only racism if it’s done in USA? :D
(Poe’s law applies)
Although recent news on that country seems to be… yeah.
My problem with this all is “white nationalist Nazi” is a label that the SJW’s apply without any actual thought. Jewish homosexuals are labeled “white nationalist Nazi’s” ffs. The most fascist people I’ve seen have been the ‘anti-fascists’. The most oppressive people I’ve seen are those complaining the most about oppression (and let me tell you, for oppressed people they sure are allowed to talk a lot).
I don’t care about your political affiliation, I don’t even honestly care about your issues. I just write code and try to enjoy the occasional movie.
Good luck enjoying those movies, once the SJWs find their way into the movie industry.
Maybe come back to reality for a moment:
a code of conduct is not fascism, it just means you can’t be an asshole on the kernel documentation no more, just like you can’t in a workplace, just like you can’t at the library, just like you can’t when you attend a conference.
It’s a slippery slope. It’s not a case of not being an asshole either, it’s being forced to agree and accept ever more PC attitudes because a group of people say they are special and victims.
It’s adding no value and in the corporate world is directly in the way of the actual work at hand.
Unfortunately, that’s not the case. The CoC says that you can’t be an asshole down the mall either, and if someone knows you are an asshole at the mall, then if they don’t punish you for that, then they are an asshole too. And no assholes are allowed to write kernel documentation.
The worst offender in this regard (being an asshole) appears to be the solo originator of the CoC itself, which speaks volumes.
That is a clear as glass false statement. the COC goes much further than “don’t be a dick here” it says outright and very clearly any behavior anywhere which is deemed harmful or someone has an issue with is grounds for punishment. I don’t think anyone would have a problem if it specifically was about how you officially communicate with other contributors but it isnt. Theres a questionable line in the contributor covenant, the code of conducts actual name, which says “Representation of a project may be further defined and clarified by project maintainers.” which leaves it wide open to determine who is and who is not a representative. Got something on your Linkdin that says you contribute to Linux? Got a little blurb in your Twitter biography? Well its three twos or two threes if you are representing something or not. This is for the crime of questioning a study whose authors admitted was flawed (I don’t get into that here and now) but this how its being used, two days after the code of conduct was initiated. That is what its designed to do, weed out people for any reasons at all if theres a personal or political grudge. Who is Theodor Tso? Well hes a fairly important software engineer at Google and probably the only Google Plus user but hes also a significant contributor to the Linux kernel in general. One who has gotten where he has and what he has though hard work not some privilege nonsense.
Hes also one of the few people that took issue with some glaringly obvious security issues with Intel engineers wanting to turn over how Linux generates a random number to a hardware black box
Whose Sage Sharp? the person doing the accusation in that Twitter archive. Another Linux kernel and open source contributor that left the project citing an abusive environment so you know, no grudge to bare here, no pitch forks at the ready. If you want a little homework you can look into Sage Sharps involvement with The Ada Initative, the Ada Inniatives links to Githubs equally open to abuse code of conduct, the reason for The Gnome Foundation’s near bankruptcy just a short while ago.
Or you can keep saying its all about not being a dick to one another.
This is why I have always resisted against adding a CoC to all projects I’ve ever had a say in. The idea is noble, but you don’t have to be a genius to see that it’s the wrong approach and gives people enormous leverage to shoehorn their way into positions of power they would otherwise have never end up in.
I have never seen a case in which a CoC has actually solved issues within a community, but on the other hand we now have a whole group of people who are abusing them. And while they have fun grabbing for power, the people who do the actual work just leave. You might have a more “diverse” community later when it comes to race, gender etc., but you just became less diverse in terms of skills. And skills are really the only thing which counts at the end of the day. Because the heavy lifting is mostly done by people who sit there in silence, just do it and have no interest in drama, not by those doing all the diversity/marketing/etc. work and producing drama all the time. But how could people who sign a “Post-Meritocracy Manifesto” ever understand that?
I’m not convinced Linus will come back in the exact same role. And I’m sorry for saying this because I’ve met Greg Kroah-Hartmann a few times, but he lacks both Linus’ vigor and attention to detail. I just want to remember everybody about Kdbus – Greg was on the team who worked on it and was about to merge it, and Linus (rightfully) threw the whole crap back at them. Neither Kdbus nor its successor ever made it past Linus. Greg is also regularily ignored by his maintainers, something which has caused Linus to go ballistic more than once. I’m absolutely convinced the kernel code quality will decrease while Linus is away.
What projects have you had a say in?
You first?
Word of warning don’t be so eager to credibility check in an environment where the only big name hold out of the Linux Foundation (Ted Tso) had rape apologist accusations thrown at him two days after coc was adopted.Thats just a recent example of this. Why not ask Larry Garfield about how the Drupel coc was used attack and bully him based on his fetish.
Word to the wise, your haters can and will use this, trolls can as well. Virtually no one needs the drama of this nonsense at all in any way shape or form but go ahead name what projects you’ve made.
I’d be happy to avoid using something that an egocentric braggart with little logical ability can destroy. So what are those?
In other words it’s a Home Owners’ Association for Linux contributors, with all the bad elements of HOAs right up front and being abused already.
The root problem here is that the Linux community should write their own CoC that is consistent with the community’s standards and the GPL. That CoC will likely contain many of the concepts from the Contributor Covenant CoC but it will be tailored for Linux’s actual environment. I think it is a mistake to apply an external, politically charged document by fiat onto the kernel community. Linux is a community of merit and consensus, it is fully capable of writing its own CoC.
+1
Many people have contributed for years or even decades. I don’t really get why the people who signed the commit which replaced the Code of Conflict (Chris Mason, Dan Williams, Jonathan Corbet, Olof Johansson, Steven Rostedt, Greg Kroah-Hartman, Linus Torvalds) assumed they had the authority to do so. Corbet isn’t even a developer but a journalist, they probably just got him on board to ensure a positive spin on LWN.
The way the kernel has been developed, Linus as BDFL has the right to do anything he wants. CoC commit isn’t anything different than any other he creates or accepts. No one in the community has ever had right to tell Linus what to do. Why would you like to change it?
Maybe folks could write / rewrite their CoC’s to prohibit the use of the software by SJW’s. That would create an interesting stand-off…
Substitute, can’t use (military/government) and see what the peace-loving open-sourcers do.
So … if you “give” your code to a project, then get your panties all in a wad because you don’t think they treat you right, and you want to take your ball and go home. Sorry, tough luck, grow up. That is all I have to say.
Lawyers make a living by making simple things complicated, and that seems to be what is going on here, along with the usual political wrangling that takes place in any group of humans. Different parties trying to find levers to manipulate power.
Sounds good. Now address the issue of the clients lawyers work for and you’ll really be hitting the nail on the head.
Developers ‘gave’ their code to the project with a certain direction and CoC. Now, that is being changed. It isn’t the same game they gave their ball to play. If they changed the CoC to include promotion of ‘hate speech’ and intolerance, would you feel the same way?
If that was their intent, they failed horribly, because they accidentally gave it to everybody! “Whoopsie!” They already shared it. For any purpose.
You think a Code of Conduct is bad, imagine what the gubermint is doing with the same software! Jeepers.
They can quit the project whenever they want, but don’t expect any satellites to get turned off, or for Android to suddenly refuse to boot.
Look at it this way, If I “give” something to a project then a new project leader comes in and says that I’m not welcome on the project anymore for something unrelated to the project and I have to leave then shouldn’t I be able to take my contributions with me? E.g. – If I volunteer to drive some people to a convention but one of the people does not like me should I still have to let them use my van since none of them have one?
I can see your point. But… I disagree.
I think it comes down to, “did you give them the right to use your code or only loan it to them?”. You can argue loan if you want but I don’t think open source can survive that way. If contributors are only “loaning” their code to the project than a contributor may at any time remove the rights to some piece of code that everything else depends on. It doesn’t have to be for a good reason or a bad reason. That puts every contributor in danger that their efforts are going to be wasted because someone else that they have no control over might decide to turn against the project. What is the logical conclusion of that? Don’t waste your time contributing to open source software. So.. OSS dies.
So lets look at your van analogy. No, I definitely would not let people use my van (if I had one) to go to a convention that those same people had kicked me out of. But… I wouldn’t tell them they suddenly owe me for all the past rides I gave them either. If I gave it to them for free I don’t get to take it back. I certainly can stop providing any more though!
so the van analogy wasnt a good one but you did get my gist, My feeling here is that this is just the only weapon these developers have against the new CoC so they are trying to use it to get the CoC that they started contributing under back. Whether it works our not I believe that a number of developers will be separating themselves from the project officially as there has been a number of instances where peoples livelihood were affected by the outcome of having this type of CoC. They want to remain and code but wont want to risk the possible fallout if something similar to what happened to Larry Garfield among others happens to them.
Aha!! A car-software analogy! You just outed yourself as an DMCA shill.
Besides, they would just download another van.
I get what you’re saying but I don’t think the analogy is accurate. I’m not sure any analogy involving physical objects will hold but that won’t stop me from trying.
It’s more like you wrote a paragraph of a story with other people and now you don’t want to be involved with them for whatever reason. This book has been published and distributed world wide. Since you aren’t working together anymore you leave and want to take your paragraph with you. Now the story doesn’t really fit together, or at least not as well.
I say no, you don’t get to take your ball and go, because you gave that ball to the group. It doesn’t matter who’s right in the argument, your ball isn’t your ball anymore. I realize this is different than typical corporate arrangements but some devs got paid to write the code, the community definitely owns that code regardless of any license, just as MS owns code you wrote while employed there. If they’re a decent community they should offer to remove your contribution as soon as is practical but depending on how key it was that may take a while and shouldn’t be a legal priority.
If you build a house with your own hands and it eventually gets given to literally Hitler or literally Stalin, you don’t get to burn it down because you don’t like them.
That’s a fine attitude to have if you’re happy to never have further contributions of skilled people that don’t neatly fit into the morality police’s pigeon holes and that can’t deftly navigate the social vagaries of hard left identity politics (and good luck with that if you’re on the spectrum).
Given the maturity of Linux, not to mention the corporate investments, it will get along just fine without “further contributions of skilled people that don’t neatly fit into the morality police’s pigeon holes”.
That said, I think a project can reasonably expect contributors to exhibit civility and professionalism in all interactions with other members of the project, and when representing the project to the public. I think it foolish to reject contributions from anyone because of views they express or actions they take outside of the project, because this adds an additional goal of promoting social mores, instead of maintaining a singular focus on the goal of producing great software.
Getting along fine because it works today (with considerable complex support) and because the profit motive exists is not an optimal strategy for improvement. If linux was just some people’s hobby I might care less about it but linux literally runs an enormous portion of the world’s information infrastructure. The idea that it should be compromised for any reason (in this instance, a small group of people’s identitarian politics) seems foolish to me.
The problem isn’t civility or professionalism so much as it is purity policing. This kind of ideological takeover always starts with that plea and ends with a crusade to burn all the heretics. It always ends with some degree of split and it always ends with a diminishment of the domain’s primary focus. The CoC isn’t even cool from the oven and it’s already being used as a stick to beat the wrong thinkers.There isn’t a single example of this kind of ideological takeover that has resulted in a better environment or outcome but there are many to the contrary.
Good intentions (if you believe those pushing this, and I don’t, having read the anti-merit manifesto) and good outcomes are two different things. This is an enormous risk because there’s no example where this has worked to improve outcome. We are virtually guaranteed to diminish linux because of that. Personally, I just don’t care about the feelings of a bunch of bigots (and they’re always bigots, it’s always one rule for thee and another for me). Still, it doesn’t matter what I think as this is a done deal. It’s too late to stop or alter and the discord is already fomented (which is arguably a goal of these kind of takeovers, those purged being used as evidence of the necessity of conduct policing).
You must not be familiar with complex software. Actually, that maturity makes it worse. Operating systems are getting more and more complex and esoteric at a low level, not less. It has no such ‘leveling off’ quality except in trivial things like commands in the shell (no real reason to make much changes to list or move compared to say, Firefox or video drivers).
This sounds a lot like the FUD Microsoft used to spread when Linux was a young upstart OS. It would be a pitty to prove their marketing trolls right after all these years.
The writers of the BSD code used by Microsoft could change there mind and revoked there licence right now.
People want to pull their contributions from Linux because they don’t want to feel forced to accept a code of conduct that advocates professional behavior and rejects bigotry? Good riddance and take your code with you. I will happily set to work replacing it.
They can’t pull anything. The idea that someone can stop GPL code from being GPL is a fiction, this have been discussed in the past and the answer have always been that one can’t. One can stop contributing. One can release the code under another license as the ownership is always with the author – but – one have released something to be freely used and distributed by others as long as the GPL is followed.
It’s an open agreement of a type that have repeatedly been validated as legal and binding.
no they are saying that if they are going to get smeared and kicked out for doing something the professionally offended might find offensive they might just take their toys and go home
Maybe just don’t be an asshole, and then you won’t get kicked out?
Lot’s of people are spewing FUD about how the horrible SJW people are going to start going after innocent nerds, but I’ve yet to see anyone cite an instance of this actually happening.
don’t be an asshole is in the existing code of conflict with out all the politics
Okay, so guy who says shitty things about rape and sexual assault victims is getting called out for saying shitty things about rape and sexual assault victims, and also he didn’t sign off on the code of conduct that says, among other things, that you shouldn’t say shitty things about rape and sexual assault.
What was your point?
(To be clear, the tweets from Sage Sharp were posted by fonz, but the twitter embed breaks the comment formatting and makes this hard to tell)
Forking is the solution to this problem. The CoC in question seems like a pretty boring and boilerplate attempt to try and make a welcoming environment. Bad faith actors will of course try to abuse it – so, like anything, it will come down to the judgement of those with the power to cast judgement. An attempt was made. See you at the next ‘controversy’ in 2 days.
The main differences I see between the “Conflict” and “Conduct” are:
* Code of Conduct takes a more proactive approach in spelling out exactly what bad behavior looks like
* Code of Conduct promises a response to complaints from the advisory board (where the other is just, “report it” and no followup guaranteed)
* Code of Conduct specifically gives maintainers the ability to block technical contributions from degenerates
I suppose it’s the last one people have problems with. However, nobody has a monopoly on good technical contributions – for all the assholes you block, it’s assumed that the good will attracts twice as many quality devs to take their place.

For an interesting comparison of the real-world implications, I would suggest to compare Python’s community and deliberate attempts at inclusiveness, vs that of the LKML.
Maybe its unrealistic but perhaps the teeth in this COC should work both ways. If someone is going to be removed from the development team then none of their previous work should be included in the next release (anything listed as a stable build would be left complete), after all if the community feels strongly enough about the reasons to boot a developer then they should not want that persons code in the project at all. This would insure that the reason to boot a person is considered fully before actions are taken.
It does do this, actually. (Well, it’s not retroactive, but it does specify that people can have their code blocked for inclusion on the basis of “they’re an asshole”)
If someone makes a demonstrably false accusation of violations of the Code of Conduct, boot the accuser out. But that’s not the sort of fairness the SJW’s want, ever. They want it so they can accuse and get someone ejected from a project, prevented from a government job appointment, or thrown in jail.
So we have “sticks and stones, grow up” versus “don’t throw a tantrum, grow up.” Who is actually grown up? Was that a nonsense question?
Regardless, Linus could have accomplished the same things with less effort by leaving insults out of his criticism.
So you could sell someone a permanent patent licence, and then revoke it later?
That would be wonderful since it makes software patents worthless. No one is going to pay if the licence can be revoked later.
Making software patents worthless might have the very welcome side effect of getting rid of rampant patent trolling, though. Software patents are horribly abused.
You keep talking, I will keep developing my code
lmao it matters not. Someone will fork it with only the noblest of intentions. It is the open source way.
I would have been sooo much more concerned about how this is going to play out if it happened 15 years years ago.
Then came HAL and PAM and various unnecessary complications that made it so much harder to just make the OS just get out of my way and the computer do what I want it to do. I always hoped that sound would become easily network transparent like X is but neither eSound nor aRts support ever became ubiquitous and now there’s PulseAudio that kind of works remotely but not really. Finally there was SystemD. Arguments over it’s treatment of the Unix philosophy aside, it’s replacement of so many system commands that we were used to for so many years with much longer, harder to remember, harder to type ones is ridiculous and it’s replacement of text logs and configuration files with binary ones is completely unhelpful. Why would anyone want that?
Maybe it’s time to move on and start a new hobbyist OS anyway!
The solution to this problem is already baked into the bones of the FOSS movement, but is social, not legal.
Let’s assume you’ve contributed code to a project, someone in charge has kicked out out in a way that’s completely unfair, and the courts say you can’t get back the code you’ve contributed.. the whole losing strategy envisioned in this question.
Now let’s look at the project that kicked you out: they just lost the most experienced expert in the code you wrote and maintained. If they want to maintain that code, fix bugs, or develop it going forward, they’ll have to find someone willing to learn how to do it.
Having the time, interest, and skill to handle the code won’t be the primary concern though. As far as the person who kicked you out is concerned, it’s more important that your replacement is free from whatever quality got you kicked out. If you got kicked out for being a prima donna or an hard to work with, that probably won’t be too hard. If you got kicked out by a clique of SJWs who demand ideological purity, it will be harder.
The farther a controlling clique’s focus drifts away from writing code that does a certain job, the harder it gets to find people capable of writing the code and keep them working together. Development slows down, bugs don’t get fixed, new features arrive slower if at all, and people using the code start to look for alternatives.
The default state of any programming project is failure. Of the projects that do deliver working code, the default state is stagnation. Of the projects that continue to be developed, the default state is evolution into a Big Ball of Mud:
Adding complications that have nothing to do with making the code better don’t improve the odds of success.
Countless software projects have failed due to bad management, and a vast number of those failures started with the project leadership deciding something was more important than the code. This is nothing new.
So many programs get to a state of absolute perfection (at least for a certain number of users) and work should be *stopped* except to update as needed for operating system patches or new versions that cause problems.
But too many programmers don’t want to leave their ‘babies’ alone when they’re already perfect. They like to add new things that nobody but the programmer wants, or worse, remove things a lot of users have come to depend on but for some reason the programmer has decided must go, and they refuse to listen to the pleas of thousands of users to *stop fucking it up*.
Which is one of the reasons for the existence of open-source software in the first place. If you don’t like what the developer(s) are doing to it, you can go back to the last version you liked, and support that yourself. At least in theory. It kind of breaks down when the software you want to be left alone is something big and complex, because then it’s rarely an option to “just leave it alone”.
I would argue that the people who have contributed have every right to remove their contributions. Some people think they have the “right” to lean on other people and dictate how other people should think and behave. Those other people have every right to tell those some people to go F**K themselves sideways and then pick up their toys and go home.
Exactly.
Anyone that complains about the lack of gender or orientation or race diversity in a project needs to be answered with one line “Patches are welcome”
That’s not the complaint here. The Code of Conduct doesn’t cover that. It says basically that the particular features of the person behind the code don’t matter, only the code does. Anyone who thinks that the creator being secretly a stack of 50 hamsters is a bad thing that the creator should feel ashamed of will get kicked out.
So yeah, no change unless you like to make other people feel bad. That was in the original Code of Conflict but wasn’t enforced very well, possibly because the responsibility was on the victim to come forwards rather than the community to not attack people.
You mean like attacking people by claiming them to be “rape apologists” or being into “submissive women”. No sooner than the ink was dry did outside agitators begin their efforts to dictate things. The Civil War is coming.
GPL is not an open source licence, its a free software licence.
No, it’s an open source license, you have to give up the source when asked.
“The.”
I don’t understand your point. The freedom to study and change the source code implies access to the source code, and that’s what the GPL is all about. There’s nothing in the versions of the GPL I’ve read, that says the software must be free. Only the source code must be free.
Access to the source code is not what it is all about.
I, for one, welcome our new Art history, Post-colonialism and Gender studies Linux contributors! Per the new CoC diversity is as important as merit, and so are safe spaces.
Safe tabs on the other hand…
as a hard working honest caring straight white male I take offense to this whole situation.
A hobbyist BASIC computer, the maximite, was released with an open source licence, after which the author decided to close the source of subsequent releases.
He got upset because olimex went and improved on it.
go figure.
Closing the source of subsequent releases is, and always has been, the prerogative of the creator. So what? That essentially means that he’s not supporting it any more, which makes it available for other developers to fork and support. Nothing new here.
I have to wonder why the developer of the MaxiMite released it as open-source, if he was against other people modifying his design.
In theory. A developer must convince the court the project’s development “would be prejudicial to his honor or reputation.” I doubt, any court would say introduction of CoC is.
In practice. Almost all of current Linux development is made by corporate paid programmers, who don’t own rights to their commits. Their employers do. I suppose, the amount of code “at risk” is very small.
“When the United States gets fascism it will call it anti-fascism”
I wonder if the current shitstorm over at GPGTools can be seen as a microcosm of this issue (please forgive me; I’m coming at this from the perspective of a “User” without a grasp of the nuances of licensing)…
Just this past weekend the developers released hell by sneaking-in a paid version of the previously-free OpenSource-based GPGTools in the guise of an upgrade. Furthermore, they invoked a kill switch which effectively cut the nuts off of all earlier versions. In so doing, they made it impossible for simple users to either encrypt or decrypt their emails in the manner in which they had become accustomed. The only way to regain this functionality is to pay-up for nebulous vaguely-defined “Support Plan.
Those of us who have been left high-and-dry because we’ve chosen not to capitulate to such extortion are wondering if these kids can get away with what they’re doing. But now after having read this article, it seems that the answer may remain unknown because even in the much bigger picture of FOSS, things aren’t very clear.
This could turn out to be a blessing in disguise. Imagine if a contributor decided to rescind their license, they could sue everyone of the TLAs best friends, Facebook, Google etc. to shut them down.
“Everybody should be using desktop Linux! It’s not just for nerds any more. Your grandma can use it!”
“Your computer will now need to install important security downgrades because the developer of that contribution is butthurt about a code of conduct and has retracted the license. Would you like to continue?”
I don’t think this is a difficult legal question, here’s why. If you release something under a specific license and I download it, I would have agreed to those license terms. Later, you can release new code under a new license but your original agreement with me would still be in force. I have no obligation to check to see if you changed the terms of our original agreement unless that agreement had an expiration date. It is as simple as this. We agreed to give me a book and we execute an agreement that says its my book and I can do with it what I please. You cannot later come back and say I can’t, it’s that simple.
Did no one consult a lawyer when writing the GPL??? Seriously?
If consulting a lawyer was all it took to ensure that a contract is enforceable, there wouldn’t be civil courts.
telerik open source a basic version of they’r .net tools with advanced grid support… that version evaporated off github when they decided to remove that part, can’t even find clones, after that i’ve learned to keep an updated clone of all dependencies of my projects
If you connect the dots, a couple things come to light:
1. 80% of the people targeted by the new CoC and booted from the project are people that had concerns about kernel security.
2. Giant behemoth companies like Facebook and Intel have been contributing to Linux more, and were getting called out by the devs in #1 for their egregiously insecure patches.
3. Said behemoth companies in #2 had demonstrable intent to make the kernel less secure, as patches blocked by devs in #1 were recommitted and merged after the people in #1 were purged.
4. Said behemoth companies in #2 have incentives to make the kernel less secure in order to serve their government partner repressive regimes.
5. Said companies in #2 introduced the CoC as sections of the CoC were shown to be block-copied from Facebook’s employee handbook.
6. CoC violations can be made up from whole cloth at the companies’ in #2 request in order to remove troublesome developers.
Conclusion:
The inclusion of the CoC has been done by giant companies and their government partners using SJWs and witch-hunt culture in order to make the kernel more exploitable by said government partners by removing skilled developers that call bullshit on giant companies’ attempts to make the kernel insecure.
[many citations needed]
Flightwoman, you’re wrong.
Torvalds:
“I’m trying to get rid of my outbursts, and be more polite about things, but technically wrong is still technically wrong, and I won’t start accepting bad code just to make people feel better about themselves.”
Source:
It’s an old trick like how they got rid of midwives, or how Futurama (event not the TV show) worked. It’s not exactly original, either. Tower of Babel legend comes to mind. :P
“You” [all/many] make it so complicated. Someone squats more than 20 yrs while you actively try to chase them.away and fail, it’s there’s. Tick tock. “Right to pass over, revocable without notice. You can use.my code if… and they don’t follow “if,” poof.
I see only a question of removing code in present copies to the date of complaint. as iffy. However, I see no probkem in saying, no more use/extentions atop it, and no more copies, aside from your own single archive copy. It would hurt that originator a LOT. But one has the right to cut one’s own nose off to spite ones face, business-wise. “It will ruin my bicycle business to go around land that I have cut across for 15 years!” Unfortunate. Negociate. Become a fisherman. Carve horse figurines. “I let you for 15 years. Changed my mind. See ya…” Exceptions in law are for safety devises… windshield washer blades. “Greater public safety issue.” With this, the gov’t can steal.
Uhhhhhhhhh… I’m confused… The GPL is a redistribution license, and only kicks in during the act of redistribution. It has nothing to do with day to day usage. Likewise, git is a distributed source control system. If even one person retains a git tree containing the ‘threatened’ source, the cat is still out of the bag.
Hell — look at
“In 2003, less than 24 hours after its release, WASTE was removed from distribution by AOL, Nullsoft’s parent company. The original page was replaced with a statement claiming that the posting of the software was unauthorized and that no lawful rights to it were held by anyone who had downloaded it, in spite of the original claim that the software was released under the terms of the GNU General Public License.”
It’s still out there.
Why is software protected under copyright again?
SJWs have been fiddling and playing with CoC for years now.
I hope all contributors recind and remove all the contributed GPLv2 code.
Imagine a ESR that doesn’t code, living on your couch, taking credit for your work AND judging you without any competency in coding except smearing every wall they touch with shit.
Seriously, if a person has gone to a “school” that has a Marxism 101 or Gender studies degree be VERY careful letting them close to an project. They will blame incompetence on being a victim of their incompetence and you have to like it.
“It’s worth noting that Linux does not utilize such an agreement”
If the argument is that other licenses include a additional clause, the lack of such additional clause is still not proving anything regarding GPL2.
“the closest thing we find is Section 4”
And the closest thing is still far from proving the claim right. Section 4 is speaking of compliance with GPL2, again you will have to prove that introducing the specific CoC is in any way invalidating compliance with GPL2. If you can’t, it’s not breaking it.
I also think we need bring out the elephant and ask why the individual or the claimed group making this threat did not bring it up on the kernel mailing list where it belongs. Kernel contributors knows how this works, that would be the only natural thing to do if you have an opinion, are affected, and want a discussion. Learning from the past weeks it’s clear that many have an opinion and even totally unaffected people tries to make it look like they are horribly affected by a rule which only tries to make a more positive communication environment between kernel contributors*. My impression at the moment are that we’re getting trolled and that both Raymond and the media bought in to it.
*PS: Please don’t give me the history of the original author of the CoC, I know it very well already and it’s not relevant. I also think she fails to understand her own text, the piece of text itself is actually very good and that’s the only thing agreed to. Just as Torvalds is the original author of the kernel, he has no authority on how you use your computer. If you worry about some big horrible changes then hopefully the interview with Torvalds will help you sort out a few things:

Well, it’s just after 5am here and before I call it a night, I wanted to mention that Bob and I compiled a list of our favorite horror movies which was published the other day over at Midnite Media. Jonny Metro asked us to put together a top ten list but, in an effort to one up everyone else, we decided to make it our top eleven. Nigel would be proud.
In other news, prints of a few of my illustrations can now be purchased online. For those wondering when Haiku Comics merchandise will be made available for sale, we should have some news on that front very soon.
Have a great weekend everyone!
One Response to “The Horror! The Horror!”
Thanks for the plug, guys! Granted, it was a plug for yourself too, but I appreciate it anyway. ;-)

The other week I was in England discussing with a client the question of Data Protection and the difference between Romania and England.
Data Protection has been a hot topic in the Western half of the European Union as well as the USA for some time now, and is now having a bigger impact in Eastern Europe. So what is the position in Romania? You ask many people about data protection in Romania and they will not know what you mean. They are not aware that Romania has a Data Protection Law which came into being in 2001 although it was modified in 2012.
The one area of business in which people are aware of data protection requirements is in the field of human resources, as this is an obvious field. You keep details of your employees, their names and addresses and other personal information on file electronically. There are however rules concerning the collection and use of personal data.
The employee must consent to you collecting the data and at the same time they must know the reason for the collection. Obvious in the field of employment. The data can then only be used for the reason for which it is collected. If it is not then the person who holds the information can be fined. It is also forgotten by many people that the person whose information has been collected electronically can request that information and if there is an error the collector is obliged to change that information. Failure to supply the information could result in a complaint to the Data Protection Agency and if found guilty of an offense, a fine.
Information is also collected in other ways without people being aware that they are subject to the law. The e-business site which sells products also collects information and is subject to the Data protection law. Are they aware of the risks they are running?
To protect yourself it is very easy to register with the Romanian Data Protection Agency. This registration will require some work as you need to produce a data protection policy and ensure that the person who gives the information is aware that you are collecting this information. All users of electronic data should make sure that their policy is up to date.
The question about data protection came out of an enquiry about transferring data abroad, in this case outside the European Union. Many companies in Romania are subsidiaries of foreign companies. The transfer of electronic data between head office and its branch is common place and can occur many times in a year, but many companies have not registered this transfer with the Data Protection Agency.
All sounds very harmless, but as awareness of data protection laws and the use that data becomes more common Romanian companies cannot afford to ignore the consequences.
I have worked in Romania for 16 years, not as a lawyer which is my profession, but managing an NGO for disabled children. If you have been working there for 20 years in business and legal affairs you surely understand the answer to your own question. The answer is both basic and simple and also profound beyond the experience of most other nationalities experience to understand.
Nothing that comes from Bucharest is assumed to be for the peoples benefit. No law concerning data rights or any other proprietary concern will have any success or validity until two things happen:
1. The corrupt bases for all business and government is actually and finally changed to support and encourage business and not to take advantage of it. Most business operates within an aura of blackmarket corruption and government complicity. Let’s just imagine for our exercise here that we can wave a magic wand and replace the black marketeers, politicians on the take, mafia and organized crime all with legitimate Romanian and Foreign business interests. Then the second factor come into play.
2. Romanian’s mind set has to change radically. If you are a Romanian business manager for a foreign corporation, you are still Romanian and you are culturally conditioned to trust no one and to question every motive. Change 1 has to happen, and then it will be another generation of Romanian local management before anyone believes it.
However, one has not happened. Number 2 is going in the wrong direction, western business looking for markets in Romania are becoming just as corrupt as all the domestic businesses. I have probably worked there too long, become too cynical, more like Romanians. So you should recognize this closing remark. ” When will it change? Maybe soon. Maybe tomorrow. May be next year. Who knows! “
Jerry, having worked here for over 20 years I have seen some good and bad changes. It is not as bad as you try and point out. Sure there is corruption but in those twenty years I have not paid any monies or done a favour to run my business. In the private field business to business is clean. Perhaps cleaner than other countries. I honestly do not think Romania is any worse or better than any other country in this stage of development.
I agree with you that things will get better and I am encouraged by the young lawyers and business people whom I meet who by and large want a clean transparent business environment at all levels. The more foreign business that come and invest in Romania the quicker the process will take and Romania will move up the scale of countries were corruption is on the decrease. You need to look at things objectively. For corruption at many levels you only have to look at the US and the UK.
Jerry, I am a Romanian living and running a business in the UK and I cannot agree with your statement – ‘[…] you are culturally conditioned to trust no one and to question every motive.’ This is never a good mindset. I am not saying one should be completely trusting of absolutely anyone you meet, but one cannot run a business by doing the opposite all the time.
Nicholas, regarding data protection in Romania, should one’s home address be protected? The reason I am asking is because I was a bit shocked to discover that a certain institution has published online the addresses of a number of people (mine included) and I know that here in the UK things are different. I was wondering if the Data Protection Law in Romania is similar to the one in the UK.
Jerry, I agree with your comments, except I would add one further comment. In the West (UK) you tend to trust before being proved wrong; in Romania people do not trust until they know you. In reality we are all different and and trust comes when deserved.
On you other point. Romania has adopted the EU legislation and cannot use the data collected without your consent. You can always report them to the Data Protection Commisioner for misue of information. Hope that this helps.
Sorry last commet was addressed to Alina.
Many thanks for your reply, Nicholas. Yes, indeed, trust comes when deserved. But somehow I may have adopted the UK mentality: trust before being proven wrong rather than the opposite.
As for the other matter, thanks for the advice. I’ll definitely look into it.
Problems of mentality are normal and will be actual many years from now, but the direction is good. Local managers need time to compete with those educated in the western countries. All my teachers in the University (I graduated in 1999) were trained during the communism. In that period the word “management” was not even used. Of course now we have access to good quality education programs but change is slow.
Nicholas, will all due respect, I feel the need to see some positive ideas as well. I admit it could be only few, but once in a while you may add such. I do not say this out of patriotism, as accountant and manager I am a victim of the bureaucracy and lack of stability of the fiscal law, I am only trying to be pragmatic. When I first meet a foreign client I do not start with the bad news but with the good news. Thank you
Eduard, Thank you for the observations and comments. Having been here for over 20 years I am a great supporter of Romania as those who have met me know. I did not think the post was negative but motr practical and realistic. I too when I meet new clients give them the good news, but they need the practical side as well. I will bear your comments in mind on all future posts. I am pleased you red the blog and I hope you will comment on future matters. Nicholas
You shared a very interesting concept about data protection thanks for putting this out there, and yes data protection is usually the biggest problem in the workplace.
Chaz, I am pleased that you like my blog. As I said in my blog data protection as you well know will become more of a problem. All companies need to understand the issues involved and then fix them. All this in the name of transparency. | https://hammond-partnership.com/boring-data-protection/ | 2018-10-15T17:06:18 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |
Lexus GS200t essentials: Solid, comfortable and reasonably priced
Lexus' 4-cylinder midsizer doesn't "wow," but does its job quietly and smoothly
January 4, 2018
What is it: The GS200t is bargain (relatively speaking) rear-drive luxury with performance power.
Key Competitors: Cadillac CTS, Infiniti Q70, Volvo S90
Base Price: $47,285 As-Tested Price: $52,285
Highlights: When Lexus updated the GS lineup in mid-2016, it added this base model and its 2.0-liter turbo four (241 hp, 258 lb-ft). The sub $50K starting sticker gives Toyota’s luxury division a midsize sedan priced below most in the segment.
Our Opinion: The Lexus GS' mid-’16 refresh included a new front end with an even bigger grille and new headlamps. The well-built interior’s seats are comfortable and adjustable enough to support most occupants, though inside you still find the fiddly toggle/mouse thing to control the infotainment screen, and its graphics still look cartoonish.
The car goes about its day smoothly and effortlessly -- comfort is the key here, and you glide along comfortably and quietly at all speeds. Little wind noise, very little road noise. Everything -- throttle, brake and steering inputs -- all happen gently. The chassis is robust and the ride is soft; seemingly nothing upsets the GS’s ride, even Detroit's winterized roads.
I doubt Lexus buyers care much about this next point, but acceleration can feel borderline frisky when the tach is kept above 3,000 rpm. The turbo four has punch and according to the in-dash mpg meter, I averaged 27 mpg around town and consistently saw 30-plus on the freeway. Not bad. The eight-speed is super smooth and was never hunting for gears no matter what I did with the right pedal.
There are swankier midsize luxury sedans out there, and quicker ones, too. Yet the GS200t is solid, comfortable and pleasant, and the reasonable price, at least over its German rivals, might sway some customers. Besides, if you insist on more in a Lexus sedan, you’re still covered: Check out the GS F Sport and its 311 hp.

Bradley Theodore (@bradleytheodore) is hands down my favorite graffiti artist. He is best known for portraying fashion icons, including Karl Lagerfeld and Anna Wintour, in a colorful, skeletal way. His is most recent work consists historical icons, such as Queen Elizabeth, and infamous stars, including Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe. His work can be found in galleries and on the street throughout the world, specifically in major cities like New York City, Los Angeles, London, and Hong Kong. In New York, most of his street art is found in Soho and the LES. The above are found on Rivington and Ludlow in the LES.

This week The New Yorker featured an essay written by Mark Slouka, “Nobody’s Son”
, a piece that looks deep into Slouka’s own grief in the wake of his father’s death.
Although we all will have a time in our lives that we grieve the death of a person dear to us, sometimes it takes a honest portrayal such as this to realize it is a commonality we all share.
One of our goals at The Healing Center is to bring adults and children together who have similar losses so we can support each other. However, as Slouka’s essay expresses, and as grievers know, “in the aftermath of loss, the ones you love will keep you whole, but the journey is yours alone. Whatever you do, whatever you feel, becomes the map.”
We hope you can keep this in mind as we transition into a new year. “Nobody’s Son” outlines one man’s grief story but we all have our own that are ever changing as we experience new things and gain new perspectives. To end with what Slouka believes his father would tell him if he could: “You don’t love me less by living more. Live! Live like you mean it.” | https://healingcenterseattle.org/2014/01/nobodys-son/ | 2018-10-15T18:21:12 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |
