Our righteous Father Alexander Hotovitzky was a Russian who came to the United States in the 1890s as a lay missionary and was ordained to the priesthood while there. He was active as a missionary among the emigrated Uniates in the northeastern United States before returning to Russia in 1914. In Russia he was active among the Orthodox Karelians before his assignment to Christ the Savior Cathedral in Moscow in 1917. After the Bolshevik coup he was subjected to the cruelties by the ungodly revolutionists as he defended the Orthodox faith, his people, and church property. Subjected to many arrests and exile Father Alexander serviced his beloved Church as best he could through these tumultuous times until after a final arrest he disappeared from history other than oral reports of his martyrdom.
Missionary in the United States
Alexander Hotovitzky was born on February 11, 1872 in the city of Kremenetz in Volhynia. His father, Alexander, was a priest who was the rector of the Volhynia Theological Seminary. Father Alexander was educated at the Volhynia Seminary before entering the St. Petersburg Theological Academy. Upon graduation from the academy in 1895 with a master's degree he was sent to the Diocese of the Aleutians and North America as a lay missionary and as reader at the St. Nicholas Church in New York City. He was ordained a deacon after his marriage to Maria Scherbuhina, who was a graduate of the Pavlosk Institute of St. Petersburg. Bishop Nicholas (Ziorov) ordained Father Alexander to the priesthood on February 25, 1896 at the diocesan cathedral in San Francisco.
A week later he returned to New York to become the pastor of St. Nicholas Church, where he had been a reader. During the ensuing years Father Alexander was successful in his missionary activities among the emigrees from Galicia and Carpatho-Russia as well as representing the Orthodox Church before American religious institutions and meetings. He was instrumental in the establishment a many new Orthodox parishes, including those in Yonkers, Passaic, and Philadelphia. He edited the journal of Orthodox activity, the American Orthodox Messenger. He actively participated in establishing an Orthodox mutual aid society, including serving in various management positions. Through his initiative and active participation a new architecturally majestic St. Nicholas Cathedral was built to replace the small parish church in New York City, traveling throughout the United States, and even to Russia, soliciting funds for its construction. In 1903, the new edifice became the diocesan cathedral.
After eighteen years of service in America under Bishop Nicholas, the future Patriarch of Moscow and St. Tikhon, and Archbishop Platon, the now Archpriest Alexander returned to Russia on February 26, 1914.
Russia and Martyrdom
After his arrival in Russia Father Alexander was assigned as a priest in Helsinki, then a part of the Russian Empire. Here, as assistant to his archpastor, Sergius (Stragorodsky) he defending the minority Orthodox against the proselytizing activities of the expansionist Finnish Lutherans. Then in August 1917 he was transferred to Christ the Savior Church in Moscow as an assistant priest to once again serve under his old archpastor from America, the future St. Tikhon.
He also arrived as two historic events were to open, the All-Russia Church Council of 1917 and the Bolshevik coup of October 1917. He was an active participant in the Church Council and assisted St. Tikhon in the administration of the Moscow diocese. With the loss of State funding the Church and the Cathedral had to look to other sources of funds. He, with Father Nicholas Arseniev who was the rector of Christ the Savior Cathedral, aided the establishment of a brotherhood that appealed to the Orthodox flock to defend, preserve the Cathedral, and to aid the starving.
Father Alexander's activities defending the Church naturally brought him the enmity of the Bolsheviks and led to his arrest for brief periods in May 1920 and November 1921 for violating decrees concerning church relationships. In 1922, the next stage of Bolshevik antagonism began as Church property, including icons and sacred vessels, were confiscated on the pretexts for helping the poor and starving. Although St. Tikhon encourage the Church's donation of funds for this purpose, this was not enough for the Bolsheviks. So, St. Tikhon issued a decree based on canon law that the clergy in Russia were not to surrender sacred vessels for non-ecclesiastical use. This brought St. Tikhon's arrest and numerous court trials in which the servants of the Church were accused of counterrevolutionary activity. These trials intensified the Bolshevik attacks and the increased shedding of blood of the clergy and faithful who defending God's Church.
Father Alexander was in the forefront of those who implemented the Patriarch's instructions. He took part in meetings to draft a resolution for a general parish meeting of the Christ the Savior parish about the state decrees. This resolution, that was drafted by Father Alexander, was presented at a general meeting of the parish by Archpriest Nicholas Arseniev on March 23, 1922. Father Alexander had already been placed under arrest. The final resolution contained demands of guarantees from the state that all donations by the Church are used for saving lives of the starving. But, the drafting of this resolution was considered a further example of counterrevolutionary activity. This led to further trials and executions of hieromartyrs and martyrs. Then a new high visibility trial was convened in Moscow on November 27, 1922 during which 105 clergy and laity were accused of "attempting to retain in their hands possession of church valuables and, through the resulting starvation, to topple the Soviet Regime.

I couldnt support a player who bites people when he gets frustrated. Theres no place for that in football.
What about 1 that headbutts them?
cant abide him as for him wearing a Everton top sad sad day in our history shows how desperate weve become
I never believed Evra he could cause trouble in an empty room.
I couldn't support a player who bites people when he gets frustrated. There's no place for that in football.And thats before you get to the racism.
Has anyone watched Suarez recently?He's completely gone, can't finish the simplest of chances.Have to admit though, he's one of my favourite all time players to watch. Such a great player and a rare example of being worth of the kopite adulation.
Surely Henderson deserves the same 😅😅😅.

WASHINGTON—The U.S. bishops have released a statement encouraging Catholics to make going to confession a significant part of their spiritual lives and to use this Lent as an opportunity to do so. God's Gift of Forgiveness: The Pastoral Exhortation on the Sacrament of Penance and Reconciliation was approved by the full body of bishops during their annual Fall General Assembly in Baltimore, November 13.
"Pope Benedict XVI and Cardinal Timothy Dolan have both stressed the importance of confession in strengthening our witness during the Year of Faith," said Bishop David Ricken of Green Bay, Wisconsin, chairman of the Committee on Evangelization and Catechesis of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). "The bishops have made this document available for easy distribution at the parish level this Lent, and the USCCB has produced resources that will help engage Catholics and welcome them in their journey back to the sacrament."
Lent begins Wednesday, February 13.
The full text of the statement and the links to resources for individual Catholics and diocesan and parish staff on the Sacrament of Penance and Reconciliation are available online at: www.usccb.org/confession

Uranium found in Stamford well water
Stamford health officials are urging homeowners to test their drinking water after 70 percent of five dozen private wells sampled since the beginning of the year tested positive for uranium contamination.
Uranium is a naturally occurring element that can seep into drinking wells through nearby bedrock. People who are exposed to high levels of uranium for a sustained period of time are susceptible to kidney problems, said state Department of Public Health Epidemiologist Brian Toal.
"The primary health risk for uranium is potential damage to the kidney," Toal said. "It's really not a radioactive hazard even though it's a radioactive element. Therefore, it's not considered a large cancer risk."
Stamford, which has offered subsidized well water testing for carcinogenic pesticides since March 2012, recently added heavy metals contaminants to the list. The Health Department has tested 60 private wells for arsenic and uranium so far this year; 42 samples contained uranium.
Fourteen wells, or about 23 percent of the five dozen tested, contained uranium contamination in concentrations at or above the recommended federal health limit of 30 micrograms per liter.
"In Stamford, the percentage of wells that have been found over the (federal health) standard are quite high," Toal said. "At the levels we're seeing in well water, we would not expect to see people with overt kidney damage or problems. But if someone has a very high level, it's a good recommendation for them to go see a doctor."
Toal characterized "very high" uranium concentrations as 100 to 300 micrograms per liter. Several years ago, a private well in Newtown tested positive for uranium at levels exceeding 900 micrograms per liter.
The family of six had their kidney functions tested and one child demonstrated a "slight abnormality," which went away after several months of drinking clean water, Toal said.
More InformationAbout the program
Homeowners pay a flat $100 fee to participate in the city's well water testing program.
To sign up, call the Health Department's hotline at 203-977-0816 and leave your name, address and telephone number.
"In most instances (uranium poisoning) is reversible," he said. "There's a fairly simple test that can be done to check your kidney function. But for most people we'd say just stop drinking the water and you'll be fine."
It's not clear how widespread uranium contamination is statewide, Toal said. The state health department is coordinating water testing across 30 to 40 towns and expects to complete the study this fall.
"We get calls for isolated reports all over the state," he said. "We think it occurs in pockets, and that it's higher in some places than others, but we don't have a complete picture yet."
The Stamford Health Department has been sampling private drinking wells for two years, but only began offering arsenic and uranium testing Jan. 1.
"Even if you tested before for pesticides and volatile organic compounds, you need to test again," said Director Anne Fountain. "You don't know what you're going to find until you test."
So far arsenic, which was detected in the drinking water of 81 Weston homes last year, has only been found in one Stamford well, Health Laboratory Director Jim Federici said.
Stamford is the first municipality in the state to embark on widespread, subsidized testing of private well water. The program, which costs the city about $60,000 annually, is scheduled to run through the end of 2015.
Stamford began investigating well-water contamination in May 2009, when chlordane and dieldrin were discovered in North Stamford private drinking water. Originally, city officials thought a nearby polluted landfill was the source, but local and state health officials now believe the contamination, which has been found in private wells all over the city, is linked to historic pesticide use.
To date, the Health Department has tested 1,261 of Stamford's 5,000 private wells for pesticides, which were detected in about 13 percent, Federici said. Fewer than 2 percent of all wells tested contained chlordane in levels exceeding recommended health standards, while about 3 percent tested positive for high levels of dieldrin.
City Rep. Gail Okun, R-19, urged residents to sign up for the city's testing program, but stressed that it's up to homeowners to pay for any necessary filtration systems.
"There's no reason to panic," said Okun, who is vice chair of the Board of Representatives Water Supply Committee. "If you find that the naturally occurring uranium is present, you do what you have to do to make sure it's remediated."
Treatment systems for pesticide and heavy metal contamination are different, Fountain said.
"Even if you have a filter for the pesticides, it's a totally different filtration system for uranium," she said.
Remediation for pesticide contamination involves installing a granular carbon-activated filter that costs about $1,600 and treats the entire house's water supply.
Uranium only poses a health risk when it is ingested, however, so homeowners can attach filters directly to their kitchen faucets to treat the water they cook with and drink.
"Uranium is not a risk for bathing, showering and inhalation," Toal said. "It's OK to brush your teeth with it."
Karen DeFalco, president of the neighborhood advocacy group North Stamford Concerned Citizens for the Environment, said she tests her well water every year.
"We cannot take for granted what's in our water," DeFalco said. "It's important that we test and keep testing. You might have been fine one year and you might not be fine the next year. It's about being proactive."
Homeowners pay a flat $100 fee to participate in the city's well-water-testing program. To sign up, call the Health Department's hotline at 203-977-0816 and leave your name, address and telephone number.

To the average person, they are just ordinary swamps or bogs. But peatlands across the world are more than just simple marsh land: they are one of the largest carbon stores on earth and play a significant role in the regulation of greenhouse gas emissions and global climate change. Not for long, perhaps.
YOGYAKARTA, Indonesia (Reuters) - To the average person, they are just ordinary swamps or bogs.
But peatlands across the world are more than just simple marsh land: they are one of the largest carbon stores on earth and play a significant role in the regulation of greenhouse gas emissions and global climate change.
Not for long, perhaps.
In recent years, experts say peat bogs have been stoking global warming through increasing greenhouse gas emissions because of massive deforestation and conversion into agricultural land and palm oil plantations, especially in Southeast Asia which accounts for a huge chunk of the world's marshes.
"When you clear land, the easiest way is by burning. But that emits sequestered carbon into the atmosphere," Bostang Radjagukguk, an Indonesian peat expert, told Reuters at a conference on peatlands in the historic city of Yogyakarta.
"In Indonesia, some 5 percent of 20 million hectares (49 million acres) of peatland has already been converted into agricultural land."
Peat is created by dead plant matter compressed over time in wet conditions preventing decay. Peat can hold about 30 times as much carbon as in forests above ground.
The world's peatlands -- a rich and fragile ecosystem formed over thousands of years -- are estimated to contain 2 trillion tonnes of sequestered carbon.
When drained, peat starts to decompose on contact with air and carbon is released, often aggravated by fires that can rage for months and add to a choking smog or haze that is an annual health menace to millions of people in the region.
Dutch research institute Wetlands International estimates peatlands in Southeast Asia store at least 42 billion tonnes of soil carbon or peat carbon.
Wetlands senior program manager Marcel Silvius estimates about 13 million of 27.1 million hectares of Southeast Asia peatlands have been drained causing severe peat soil degradation.
Although degraded peatlands in Southeast Asia cover less than 0.1 percent of the global land surface, they are responsible for about 2 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide a year, or close to 8 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions.
"By 2025, peatland emissions will decrease because easily degradable peatlands would have disappeared altogether," Silvius told Reuters. "In Indonesia alone, 3 million hectares of shallow peatland have already disappeared."
As concerns about global warming increase, environmentalists say the problem is more acute in Indonesia where emissions from peat, when drained or burnt, account for some 85 percent of total emissions from Southeast Asia.
Indonesia is home to 60 percent of the world's threatened peatlands, but its marshes are being destroyed at an unprecedented pace because of massive conversion into pulp wood and palm oil plantations to feed global demand for biofuel.
"Palm oil production on peatlands requires drainage, leading to substantial emissions of carbon dioxide. This renders it unsuitable as a biofuel, as biofuels should by international standards at least be carbon neutral," said Silvius.
Indonesia has also lost a huge chunk of peat under a project to convert about 1 million hectares of peat swamp forests into rice fields in the mid 90s, dubbed the Mega Rice Project.
The project deforested and drained massive amounts of peatland in Central Kalimantan, only to find the acidic soil underneath was unsuitable for rice farming.
Today, it's a giant wasteland, a spread of dry black peat releasing enormous amounts of carbon dioxide into the air. The highly combustible material lights up in the dry season, choking the area in thick haze for a couple of months a year.
"It releases carbon-dioxide, methane and a cocktail of other gases, some of them toxic," Professor Jack Rieley, a peat expert at the University of Nottingham, told Reuters.
Now, as the world battles global warming, Indonesia's peatlands are being seen as a hot investment ticket, as keeping its vast peatlands intact could be a huge opportunity for companies seeking to trade off business-related carbon emissions for emissions reductions achieved elsewhere.
Indonesia is pushing to make emission cuts from preserving peatlands eligible for trade in a new deal on fighting global warming at U.N.-led climate talks in Bali in December.

This year's GRAMMY Awards ceremony was filled with worthy winners and amazing musical performances from Mick Jagger, Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars and Arcade Fire to name a few. To encourage music fans to do more than watch, The Recording Academy launched a social media platform called "MusicIsLifeIsMusic." Along with the platform, The Recording Academy and Adobe technology partner, HYFN, turned to the Adobe Flash Platform to create MusicMapper, an Adobe AIR powered desktop app that lets users tag songs and share them through social media sites like Facebook and Twitter, write about what those songs mean to them, and map them to a physical location all to create their very own musical audio-biography.
With the MusicMapper desktop app, The Recording Academy was able to extend the GRAMMY brand from the Web to the desktop in only a matter of weeks thanks to Adobe Flash Builder. Within the first few months of the apps launch, there were more than 220,000 downloads, and they were even able to capture the ever elusive teen and young audience demographic that so many brands want to engage with. With Adobe AIR's cross-platform abilities, HYFN can continue to provide The Recording Academy with an app that can easily improve functionality, and offer new revenue opportunities.
Download the app for your desktop, and learn more about how The Recording Academy and HYFN used Adobe AIR to keep fans engaged with MusicMapper during the 53rd Annual GRAMMY Awards here.

Despite the explosions, suicides, reported abuse, and poisonous gas, Foxconn is apparently a very popular place to work.
At a recent hiring day, thousands of applicants stood in a 650 foot queue for hours outside a recruiting agency. The applicants—predominantly young males—hoped to be among the chosen to work at the Foxconn Zhengzhou factory. The starting salary at the factory is 1650 yuan ($261) which increases to an average of 3000 yuan ($443) after the worker's been appraised. Workers do also enjoy accommodations within the Foxconn dorms, including free meals.
In all, Foxconn hopes to hire an additional 100,000 employees for the Zhengzhou factory, reportedly for increased iPhone production. And it's not like there's a shortage of 4S models, the likely cause would be prepping for the iPhone 5. [MIC Gadget via Cult of Mac]

I have hundreds of photos from Calvary Cemetery. I don't always manage to photo graves I specifically set out for–the cemetery is huge and I stop to snap photos of graves with familiar names that I stumble upon, even if they aren't on my to do list. Naturally, that slows me down. Sometimes the photos prove helpful.
However, I had photos for graves for a John, Salomea, Helen, and Alice Mierzejewski I could not place anywhere in my family tree. Not to say they may not be relatives, I just can't find enough information to verify if they are related and how they fit in. So I did some research. Hopefully someone may have additional input.
Here are the grave photos:
Helen and Alice are children of John and Salomea. All are buried in the same plot, and another smaller headstone exists for Alice.
John L. Mierzejewski and his wife and family resided in Rossford. Upon some investigation, I've located a few Mierzejewskis in the Rossford area and extending into Wood County. As time goes on, I will post further about those I've found in Wood County.
John L. Mierzejewski passed away on December 7, 1948. His obituary was published in the Toledo Blade on December 8, 1948 and is transcribed below:
John L. Mierzejewski
John L. Mierzejewski, 60, died yesterday in his home, 107 Riverview Place, Rossford, after an illness of one year. He was 60.
Born in Poland, Mr. Mierzejewski had lived in Rossford 25 years and was employed in the grinding and polishing department of the Libbey-Owens-Ford Glass Co.
Surviving are his wife, Sadie; sons, Constantine and Adolf; daughters, Miss Hattie Mierzejewski and Miss Irene Gray, both of Rossford, and Mrs. Virginia Herdter, Toledo and seven grandchildren.
Services will be at 8:30 a.m. Friday in the residence at at 9 a.m. in St. Mary Magdalene's Church, Rossford. Burial will be in Calvary Cemetery.
Salomea, known as Sophie or Sadie, died on February 7, 1976. Her death notice was published in the Toledo Blade on February 9, 1976 and is transcribed below.
Sophie (Sadie), age 81, of 107 Riverview Pl. Feb. 7. Loving mother of Adolphe, Rossford; Mrs. Hattie Buehrle, Rossford; Mrs. Irene Gray, Perrysburg; Mrs. Virginia Herdter, Toledo. 18 grandchildren, 11 great-grandchildren. Services Tuesday 9 a.m. from ROSSFORD FUNERAL HOME, 1001 Dixie Hwy. 9:30 a.m. St. Mary Magdalene Church. Recitation of the Rosary Monday 8 p.m. Interment Calvary Cemetery.
If anyone have further information about this family, please contact me. Leave a comment here or drop me an email. I'll follow up. I'm curious to learn whether this family is related to my grandparents. Both of my paternal grandparents were unrelated Mierzejewskis. See entry for Wladyslaw Mierzejewski and an entry regarding several Mierzejewski-Mierzejewska marriages for more detail.

Federal research grants are the lifeline of university research. But their lengthy, complicated application and administration requirements can drain the life out of the researchers.
Michigan Tech has been accepted as a member of a select group of research institutions and federal agencies in Phase 5 of the Federal Demonstration Partnership. The partnership's primary goal is to increase the time available for those performing research to perform the research and decrease the administrative burden while still maintaining effective stewardship of federal funds.
"What this means for Michigan Tech is that we can help streamline the process of managing federal research grants," said Anita Quinn, director of research and sponsored programs.
For Quinn, who says she has spent her entire career at Michigan Tech trying to streamline grants administration processes, this is an important step. "We actually can have an impact and help make changes and improvements in the way the federal government operates with recipients of federal funds," she said.
The Federal Demonstration Partnership began in 1986 as an experiment between five federal agencies and the Florida State University System. In 1988 it expanded to a national project.
Phases 1, 2, 3 and 4 implemented a number of improvements, including streamlining the terms and conditions for research grants, increasing budget flexibility, providing for pre-award costs and electronic research administration, simplifying cost sharing and sub-awards, and increasing participation of minority-serving and emerging research institutions.
Phase 5, which will start this fall and continue through 2014, focuses on two themes:
- maximize the time available for principal investigators and scientific staff to focus on research while reducing any unnecessary administrative burden
- increase the efficiency of administrative and compliance practices while reducing inefficient or redundant agency and institutional procedures and practices
"We want researchers doing science, not administration," the FDP Strategic Planning Committee noted in its strategic plan for Phase 5.
Michigan Tech will appoint administrative, faculty and technical representatives to work with the partnership, whose members include nine federal agencies and more than 100 research institutions across the country.

Josh and I lost our first tennis match on the Wii last night...grrrr! I find it HIGHLY unfair that with the very small amount of experience points we have, that they are making us play the computer players that have 900+ points on their side. Humph...the nerve. (Totally kidding!)
I have gotten quite a bit of scrapbooking done lately....I just can't share any of it. I will say that I am really happy with all the layouts that have come together for me recently. I love it when it works that way!
Only one more week until we are officially on vacation for 9 days! It is going to be so nice!! We haven't had a full week off since last April...so this is definitely overdue. We are going to Big Sky again this year with Josh's parents. It was tons of fun last year! I am pretty sure Yellowstone will not be open this time around...so we will have to find some other adventures!
Have a happy Friday,

Four Men Suffer the Extreme Penalty for Their Crimes
John Hardy Hanged at Welch, McDowell County, for Killing Thomas Drews Last

All Were Murderers
Four Men Suffer the Extreme Penalty for Their Crimes
John Hardy Hanged at Welch, McDowell County, for Killing Thomas Drews Last Spring...
Special Telegram to the Register.
WILD E, W. VA., January 19. - John Hardy, for killing Thomas Drews, both colored, was hung at 2:09 p. m. to-day. Three thousand people witnessed his death. His neck was broken and he died in 17 1/2 minutes. He exhibited great nerve, attributed his downfall to whiskey, and said he had made peace with God. His body was cut down at 2:39, placed in a coffin, and given to the proper parties for interment. He was baptised in the river this morning.
Ten drunken and disorderly persons among the spectators were promptly arrested and jailed. Good order was preserved. Hardy killed Drews near Eckman last spring in a disagreement over a game of craps.
of the same woman, and the latter proving the more favored lover, incurred Hardy's envy, who seized the pretext of falling out in the game to work vengeance on Drews, who had shown himself equally expert in dice as in love, having won money from Hardy. Hardy drew his pistol, remarking he would kill him unless he refunded the money. Drews paid back part of the money, when Hardy shot, killing him. Hardy was found guilty at the October term.

Post subject: what about 64 bits section.
To Keep someting About sub-forum
what about 64 bits section.
I d'ont use Puppies 64 (excepted for a glance) But I find this idea (not mine) not stupid.. What could be invented about 32 bits when Ubuntu stopped development ?
About to create lot of
new places better keep old ones and update them.
. to see slacko 64 listed at the end after Puppy nop 431, there is a gap
DPUP stretch are missing.. but not only. (consider Ubuntu is dead for PC, Debian will be the only solution)

You being a competent "googler", I'm surprised you asked.
I could have answered but did just that with this search title:
Much Ado About Nothing meaning
here is your answer
Thank you BKJohnson.
From wikipedia:
Much Ado About Nothing is a comedy by William Shakespeare thought to have been written in 1598 and 1599, as Shakespeare was approaching the middle of his career. The play was included in the First Folio, published in 1623.
By means of "noting" (which, in Shakespeare's day, sounded similar to "nothing" as in the play's title,[1][2] and which means gossip, rumour, and overhearing), Benedick and Beatrice are tricked into confessing their love for each other, and Claudio is tricked into rejecting Hero at the altar on the erroneous belief that she has been unfaithful. At the end, Benedick and Beatrice join forces to set things right, and the others join in a dance celebrating the marriages of the two couples.
I may have acquired a pretty good command of the English
however a good number of
English cultural references escape me
because my mother tongue is not English (and will never be).
Sorry if I offended anyone, but I was sincere.
So the play is about setting gossip right, is that it? How does that relate
to the subject of this thread?
Whereas your URL ref. translates it in modern English as: "A great deal of
fuss over nothing of importance."
I'm confused either way:
1) classification of sections in a forum is important
2) i don't see any gossip in this thread except in hamoudoudou's
reporting of what may have happened on another forum.

With all due respect, mavrothal, wiak, a couple of pages back, was right:
all we can do in this thread is exchange ideas and suggest improvements.
The power to really change or create classifications -- or anything else on
this board -- rests with its sole owner, J. Murga.
Which is why founding a new, democratic-type, forum for English-speakers,
encompassing anything related to Puppy Linux, may be something to
consider. Including showcasing of "official Puppylinux releases".

I figured it was about time for another of these pointless threads.There is and has been a sub-forum for official releases for years located
The section was started way way back with 4.2 Deep Thought but for some reason people quit using it.

Post subject:
It's a fundamental fact of life that we never get to write on a clean slate, the corollary of which is that undertaking a retrospective view is most often a waste of time. The best we can do is to honestly assess a situation and try to implement such changes as are possible and appear to solve the current problem.
This Forum was created by John Murga in or about 2005 using phpBB. At that time it was one of (if not the) highest rated applications for creating forums. It was more than adequate for the task for which it was intended: to provide for the publication of, support for and a place to discuss the creation of Puppy Linux by one man, Barry Kauler. As I understand it, today that software can neither be upgraded nor extensively modified.
Two Sections of this Forum reflected that initial condition: Derivatives and Projects. With Barry Kauler alone creating the "official" Puppy the only other operating systems which could properly bear the name Puppy were created by remastering. Consequently, they were all "Derivatives". The Projects Section served to provide a location for discussing 'Puppy-Related' Projects such as pets, SFSes, and extensions beyond those built into the operating system. [The inclusion six years ago of an Additional Software Section on the Forum was an innovation undertaken not without some objections].
Barry K's creation of Woof (and 'retirement') altered the fundamental situation as to the nature of Puppy Linux, and the Forum has had to adapt to that change. Anyone with the necessary skill can use Woof to create a Puppy. But what was to be its status: Was it an "Official" Puppy, or a "Derivative"? The fact is that those terms no longer served their original purpose. Some of us viewed with a degree of consternation the fact that the Woof-built Slacko received the designation "Official" while the equally fine, Woof-built Lucid did not.
Over time --and with less input by Barry about it-- a Rule of Thumb consensus appears to have developed: Woof-built Puppies are discussed under Projects; remasters of any Woof-built Puppy under Derivatives. But which Woof-built Puppies are entitled to the designation "Official"? There are three possibilities: None, All, only those published by one of the maintainers of Woof.
If this question were to be answered with a view soley of those who are familiar with the Forum in mind, than I have to whole-heartedly agree with Mike Walsh --much ado about nothing. But I think the question of "official" has more to do with the Forum's role as a publication to the rest of the world about Puppy. And that presents a problem. Puppy is a 'free-market' democracy: free-market in the sense that products are the result of one person having an idea which (s)he --perhaps with the help of a few others-- using their experience and hard work brings to fruition. On the Forum, it competes for attention with similar efforts and because the varied nature of computers on which Puppies will be run, there is no one "best" Puppy; but there might be a "best Puppy for your computer". How do you explain that to an audience which has been dumbed-down to think in terms of a couple variations of Windows (graded by capability and priced accordingly) or the "Official" version published by a Linux Distro's ingroup --with perhaps some 'community editions' differing from the official version by the window-manager offered.
Currently on Distrowatch Xenialpup64-7.5 is Puppy's 'Official' version. I'm not sure how that was decided. On my computers Xenialpup64-22.214.171.124 seems to be a superior version. I'll bet Slacko and FatDog aficionados have other opinions regarding which is the "best" overall Puppy. But if I were to nominate which Puppy should be advertised to 'the World', my nominee
would be Sailor Enceladus' Slacko 5.7.1, Radky's Dpup-Stretch 7.5, musher0's xenialPup-7.0.6 32-bits with kernel 4.1, and several of peebee's LxPups. I'd be hard-pressed to choose between them. What they have in common is that they can all run 'modern' web-browsers on 32-bit computers. In other words what I'd be publishing to the world is that Puppy Linux can provide a modern computing experience on an 'old' computer.
You'll note that some of those candidates don't qualify as
a 'Woof-built'.
Should we put it to a vote? And how would we weigh votes: one member = one vote; each member having one vote for each year of membership; each member having one vote for each of his/her posts on the forum --trolling included
; each member having as many votes as the number of words he/she's posted. [Obviously, I'll vote for the last.
] And how will we deal with the flame-wars certain to arise during the election process?
May I suggest an alternative, something which the mechanics of the Forum should be able to handle. Honestly admit to ourselves that there is neither an Official Puppy, nor one Puppy which is "best"; and recognize that most newbies to Puppy will have learned about Puppy from obsolete and misleading posts elsewhere. We can't change what the rest of the world does. But we can add a Thread (as a Sticky) to the Beginner's Section: "How to Choose Your First Puppy". I know that there are threads on the Forum, including the Beginning Section, which contain that information. But it tends to get buried.
And perhaps ask those who publish any Puppy in the future to add a README to the ISO suggesting that thread be read.

Post subject: Debian must appear.
I Repeat my opinion ; Puppys for in house training (Individual usage) must be separated from derivatives, official and projects..
Difference is like cooking at home and invite some friends to taste, and professional cooking to feed people .
Some very popular derivatives as Lucid asri EDU or ToOpPY are not even shown in any US Charts in spite downloads are more than official versions.. Well skip, but stretch has to be considered and added to official releases. Ubuntu has no future. Debian must appear.
Macpup is over, finished, abandoned, must be deleted.
Derivatives, a full list
n Another abandoned topic.
Puppy Projects : DOGs don' want to be confused with Puppy Linux. Tthey are Live CDs as each Linux OS has..
For test
Like the glass of wine they offer you before buying the bottle. If they are more of that, they are Puppies because born in Puppyland. and nationalized step by step,
Isobooter boots at home my Ubuntu 12.04, my Antix, my Linux Mint, and never i created a topic in Puppy derivatives for them..

Post subject:
Clarity (mikesLr's post, 2nd post above)
Confusion (hamoudoudou's post, above).
Sorry for being so frank.
IMO, the only valid aspect in hamoudoudou's post is his mention of non-
Anglophone, "international" Puppies, being considered nowhere for
advertisement in mikesLr's approach.
I'm not only speaking for my village here (Francophone Toutou's), but for
josejp2424's Latin-American excellent "Jibaros", the formidable
Hungarian Pups, the elegant Italian Pups, the well-researched Chinese
Pups, and so on.
They need to be advertised somewhere central too, to show Puppy's
broad outreach. Anikin and co. will say: "Ah, but this is an English-
speaking forum." Of course. But since English is the new "lingua
franca", the international language of commerce most everybody knows,
IMO, these international Pups will need to be in the list too, if only with
their URL.
P.S. @ mikesLr: Nice touch, giving voting powers based on word
count !!!
I totally agree!!!

Post subject: difference between private and public
Everybody will uderstand the difference between private and public..
If Musher0 does not, that is no longer a problem. First i believe it was strategic, but no, he really does not not understand the difference.
His Puppies are private. You can look at them ( and admire)
Peeee's Artfulpup is private or public ? I don't know. I would say private as Musher0'ones.
IMO It is not a derivative. It is a home training category..
is very small Debian Live CD shaped to look and act like Puppy Linux. Debian structure and Debian behaviour are untouched and
Debian documentation is 100% valid for DebianDog.
You have access to all debian repositories using apt-get or synaptic.
Puppy Linux is not a single Linux distribution like Debian. Puppy Linux is also not a Linux distribution with multiple flavours, like Ubuntu (with its variants of Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, etc) though it also comes in flavours.
Puppy Linux is a collection of multiple Linux distributions, built on the same shared principles, built using the same set of tools, built on top of a unique set of puppy specific applications and configurations and generally speaking provide consistent behaviours and features, no matter which flavours you choose.
There are generally three broad categories of Puppy Linux distributions:
official Puppy Linux distributions → maintained by Puppy Linux team, usually targeted for general purpose, and generally built using Puppy Linux system builder (called Woof-CE).
woof-built Puppy Linux distributions → developed to suit specific needs and appearances, also targeted for general purpose, and built using Puppy Linux system builder (called Woof-CE) with some additional or modified packages.
unofficial derivatives ("puplets") → are usually remasters (or remasters of remasters), made and maintained by Puppy Linux enthusiasts, usually targeted for specific purposes.
Artfulpup by
is a more a derivative, intended for public. Why a translated version if not ? If you need help, you will be helped.. With americanos, you are always helped.. Culture is different, even if they use English to be understood.

here is a proposal thank you james c and mikslr
1. official woof-ce puppies use puppy development subforum
for development
official is determined by woof-ce team leader mick0
what does it matter what puppy is declared official
people will use and work on what they want to anyway
2. projects with a puppy base use puppy derivative subforum
this also includes other woof-ce puppies not declared official
3. projects without a puppy base use puppy projects subforum
4. a sticky thread in beginners (start here) subforum
will inform newbies what is going on and where to look for things
everyone will move and place their threads voluntarily
because they love puppy and the puppy community
and wish there to be peace and harmony in the kingdom of puppy

Beautiful twist there, hamoudoudou: first a slap in the face, and then
a compliment! Hats off!
Please feel free to have your own schizophrenic definition of any word!
This is what the "CanadaSpace" dictionary has to say about
I'll meet you halfway: my Pups are private, but I like sharing them with
the general public!
And since any publicity is publicity, my Pups can be downloaded from
Enjoy, everyone!

Looking for helpers for your private production or giving Help for Puppy Public LTS is a different world..
Musher0 only care about his private stuff, and would like everybody cares about it
USA team did bad choices.. because they don't care the rest of the world, jailed inside their border not to defend Australian Puppy, but to defend USA team

Subject description: Tah-Dah, sad unmoderated Puppy world.
Anyway, I'm through wasting my time on suggestions that will never
be implemented, or in stolen form.
But always criticized by the same air-heads!!!
If anybody knows of a serious small distro that needs a scripter or
coder, or even just someone to push the broom and empty the trash
can in their office, please leave me a private message (private in the
usual English sense, not in hamoudoudou's sense). I'm sure I'll get
more respect there than here.
After all I have contributed here. But hey, one has to know when to let
go. I still love Puppy. But Puppyists, well, that depends; it's a case-by-
case judgment call.

James C is a killjoy. In a short paragraph he (almost) ended this pointless, much ado about nothing discussion. However, his closing words
but for some reason people quit using it
get me thinking. Let's see what happens.
One little problem remains, though. My friend musher0 still desperately wants to have a forum of his own. a place that he can call home and have full control of - be a moderator, ban hamoudoudou and promote his crazy Francophone ideas. I wish, I could help him.

The PDQ-88b securitron (also named the RobCo security model 2060-B) is a private security robot created and mass-produced by House Industries with the help of RobCo Industries, and privately and on a much smaller scale by the Big MT research company, who were primarily attempting to improve the original. They are commonly found on The Strip, patrolling. Other locations include Big MT and around Lucky 38.
The PDQ-88b securitron is a large, monowheel robot with a titanium alloy housing, resistant to shrapnel and small arms fire. The PDQ-88b securitron is heavily-armed. Its left arm contains a Glastinghouse X-25 Gatling laser for medium range engagements. For close-range suppression and crowd control, the securitron mounts a 9mm machinegun in its right arm. However, these are only secondary weapons; concealed compartments in its shoulders contain M-235 missile launchers for long range and surface-to-air engagements, and a rapid-fire G-28 grenade launching system for close range engagements. The robots also have onboard auto-repair systems to repair any damage sustained from combat. Thus armed, a securitron can handle nearly any combat situation.
The PDQ-88b securitron produced by House Industries supports only two operating systems: Mk I and Mk II. The Mk I operating system lacks drivers for the auto-repair systems and explosive weapons, limiting the robot's arsenal to the built-in X-25 Gatling laser and the 9mm machinegun. The Mk II operating system enables the M-235 missile launchers, the rapid-fire G-28 grenade launching system, and the auto-repair system. As estimated by Mr. House and Yes Man, the upgrade improves the combat effectiveness of each securitron unit by 235%.
The PDQ-88b securitron produced by the Big MT company supports six operating systems: Mk I, Mk II, Mk III, Mk IV, Mk V and Mk VI. These gradually increase firepower and accuracy, efficiency of auto-repair systems and missile launcher capacity.
House Industries
These are the models created by House Industries, the original creator of the PDQ-88b securitron, with the help of RobCo Industries. After the Great War, they are almost all controlled by Mr. House, and can be upgraded via the platinum chip.
Mark I
The securitron Mk I can only use the X-25 Gatling laser and the 9mm submachine gun, but it can not use its auto-repair systems. The unit's face is that of an American policeman.
|Name (Base ID)
|Securitron Mk I
* The securitron Mk I's on The Strip have a DT of 0. The securitrons in Freeside and inside the Lucky 38 have the normal DT of 20.
* Mark 1s have grenade launchers instead of X-25s, and will use it frequently despite them supposedly not having the software drivers for them.
Mark II
Through the use of the platinum chip, the Courier may upgrade the securitrons of Mr. House or Yes Man at The Fort and around The Strip to the Mark II operating system. The Securitron Mk II can use all the build-in weapons: the 9mm submachine gun, the rapid-fire G-28 25mm grenade launcher, the M-235 missile launchers, and the X-25 Gatling laser system. However, outside of the Lucky 38 basement demonstration, it only ever uses the last 3. It can also use the auto-repair systems, and its armor is increased. The unit's face is that of an American Army infantryman.

Big MT company
They are a new line of securitrons created in Big MT by Doctor 0 and his team to surpass the PDQ-88b securitron created by House Industries and Robert House (the latter considered by 0 to be his greatest enemy). These efforts succeeded to a degree, as a Mk VI securitron operating system was developed. However, these never reached full production, and as of 2281, all of Big MT securitrons are either irreparably damaged or have gone berserk due to lack of maintenance for over 200 years, also now lacking any functional armor.
Berserk series
The unit's face of the berserk PDQ-88b securitron is a distorted face, similar to the "angry moon" featured in the film A Trip to the Moon. The berserk model has the ability to use the rocket launchers in its shoulders and the laser in its arm, but not the grenade launcher or machine gun.

Other interactions
Securitrons in the Mojave Wasteland are the hands, eyes and soldiers of Mr. House. Notably, they patrol the Strip and guard its north entrance. Like all robots, securitrons cannot be pick-pocketed, and attempting to do so will just trigger the securitron to say one of their quotes. The Courier may upgrade the units to the Mark II operating system through the use of the platinum chip.
Those of Big MT, however, are all hostile to the Courier, with the exception of Muggy.
Notable PDQ-88b securitrons
- The securitrons in the Las Vegas Boulevard Station will still be Mk I, regardless of any upgrades given to the other securitrons.
- With a Science skill of 80 or greater, the Courier can input the following code when attempting to enter the New Vegas Strip: 1C 3C R34 M. This is "L33T-speak" for ice cream. "Ice cream" is also the code word used to identify third floor access at REPCONN headquarters.
- When deactivated via Robotics Expert perk, they will still move but cannot be interacted with. This is an issue present with many of the other robots in the game.
- Outside of the Ultra-Luxe, three female NCR troopers are dancing in the water fountain, two in their underwear and the other wearing sexy sleepwear. Two securitrons will be telling them to leave, while getting more and more hostile. Eventually, two male NCR MP's will arrive and disperse the women.
- Two securitrons can occasionally be seen outside of New Vegas Boulevard Station, puzzled by a piece of graffiti on the wall. They fire their Gatling lasers at it in attempt to clean it off, although this is futile and nothing actually comes off.
- Securitrons seem to have police sirens in the opening cinematic. In-game, they do not ever actually use their sirens.
- According to Father Elijah, they are said to have come from the Big MT.
- If there is a NCR Ranger or trooper following the Courier, the securitrons by the Strip will shoot them.
- Securitrons have a small plate just beneath their monitors that read H&H Tool Company, implying a relation to Anthony House (Robert House's half brother).
- Killing the securitrons at the Strip's gate will cause all securitrons to become hostile.
- After upgrading the securitrons to the MK II OS, the securitrons attempting to convince the NCR troopers to get out of the fountain will still be running the MK I OS.
- The securitrons at Big MT use the same Robco terminal symbols as Dr. 8, which can only be seen with the subtitles turned on. The securitrons will also make a beeping sound when this happens rather than Dr. 8's static sound.
- It appears that they have the ability to switch AI "personalities" (I.E. Victor and Yes Man) from one Securitron to any other,as Victor is seen welcoming the Courier if he goes to the Strip via NCR Monorail,and then immediately switching back to a standard Securitron guard robot AI.
Notable quotes
- "You've done the right thing, citizen. Reporting struggles, scuffles, and tussles is the civic duty of every man, woman, and child."
- "Please, do not stand in the fountains."
- "Strip secure."
- "Move along."
- "Self-control is a virtue."
- "Please obey all weapon laws."
- "No violence is permitted on the strip."
- "Your move, creep."
PDQ-88b Securitrons appear in Fallout: New Vegas and the add-on Old World Blues.
Behind the scenes
- If the Courier has taken the Wild Wasteland trait, Securitrons may say "Your move, creep!"RoboCop, who uses the same line.

Hear voices ringing in the night and feel shadows lurking on paths at the 2011 Ghost Walk of Chestnut Hill, organized and run once again by Teenagers, Inc.
Families will be treated to four storytellers on Saturday, Oct. 29 beginning at 6:30 p.m. Three more tours will follow, leaving from Chestnut Hill Library, 8711 Germantown Ave., every half hour. Each walk will take participants around the historic homes and churches of Chestnut Hill.
Masked characters will haunt the alleys and lead walkers through luminary-lit paths where storytellers wait to share tales of hauntings and fright.
The storytellers
Vernyce Dannells will tell a murder ballad called "Fair Alice." Dannells thas been part of the Ghost Walk for five years. Known for her eerie song stories and performance poetry, Vernyce has spent time as a producer for National Public Radio and has written for several Fortune 100 companies and academic institutions. Cadenza Press published her poetry chapbook, "Temporarily Abated," and her poetry and prose has appeared in numerous national publications.
Joining the Ghost Walk for the first time is Claudia Lees. Lees will treat walkers to "He Kept His Promise," a story of privateers, romance and misfortune. Lees discovered her love of storytelling by attending a workshop led by Bill Harley in July 2009. Since that time Lees has performed at the "Tellebration" in Chestnut Hill in 2010, n the Fusion Festival in May of 2011, and, most recently, in the New Jersey Storytelling Festival at the Grounds for Sculpture outside of Princeton, N.J.
Loretta Lucy Miller, the third storyteller, joined the Ghost Walk last year. Her story will be a combined tale that will make your hair rise and teeth fall out. Miller was a member of the Southern Order of Storytellers – telling at Callenwolde Art Center, Winterfest Storytelling Festival, Atlanta Meeting and family events.
Now, a member of Patchwork Storytellers Guild, Miller has told at "Tellebration" a worldwide storytelling event, Plymouth Friends School and most importantly of all, her grandchildren's nursery school. Miller has been an actor and director for more than 46 years and is so happy that storytelling is a part of her life. She has also performed in numerous shows of Stagecrafters, Germantown Theatre Guild, Philadelphia Theatre Company, various community-based theatre and Plays For Living for 15 years.
The fourth storyteller, Denise Valentine, will enchant audiences with her stories of White Witches and spine-chilling tales that come from the Deep South and Appalachia. This is Valentine's second year with the Ghost Walk and her voice will mesmerize you into believing the story is happening next to you.
She debuted at Keepers of the Culture in 1997 and joined the National Association of Black Storytellers. Valentine has also performed with the Philadelphia Fringe Festival. She has been a delegate to South Africa to study the preservation of folklore traditions and is a teaching artist using themes of conflict resolution and ecological sustainability to work with at risk kids.
In addition, characters will roam the dimly lit regions and lend the evening a ghoulish effect. Attendees can enjoy a sip from the cauldron if you dare and a bite of treats! Settle inside the backroom of the library for a showing of the film "Most Haunted Mansion in Chestnut Hill," Balleroy. Don't miss a delicacy from the secret bowl. Little trick or treaters can sit for face painting too.
For a haunting night, reserve your tickets today for a timed show departing the Chestnut Hill Library at 8711 Germantown Ave. between 6:30-8 on the half hour. Tickets can be purchased at Sovereign Bank; 8623 Germantown Ave. or Chestnut Hill Welcome Center; 8426 Germantown Ave.
For more information or tickets, call Marianne Dwyer at 215-242-4976 or email email@example.com. Tickets are $8 for persons 12 and older, and $5 for children 6 and older. Check out the Teens, Inc. web-site at www.teensincphilly.org or find us on Facebook for more information on activities.

This wedding hair updo is also featured in Once Wed's recent magazine! Here's the tutorial for achieving this look on your own! (Well, relatively speaking. Having an extra set of hands around to help never hurts!)
1. Take a 1 inch thick piece of hair in your hands and twist it.
2. Hold one tiny strand at the tip of the twist and push the remaining hair up into a ringlet on your head.
3. Wrap the remaining strand around the ringlet and use a bobby pin to pin the ringlet to your head
4. To recreate the top image, grab a friend who can help you create and pin ringlets all the way around.
