[Bug 515365] governments should fear their citizens.....not the other way around

 

I wonder if we all send this to at least 5 people if we can start a fire
that will wake the fools on the hill up to who they work for.  I think it is
worth a shot and that is why I am sending this to you.  Please send it on.



*THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS AND SENATE!!!*


*I am sending this to virtually everybody on my e-mail list and that
includes conservatives, liberals, and everybody in between. Even though we
disagree on a number of issues, I count all of you as friends..  My friend
and neighbor wants to promote a "Congressional Reform Act of 2010". It would
contain eight provisions, all of which would probably be strongly endorsed
by those who drafted the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.*
*
I know many of you will say, "this is impossible".  Let me remind you,
Congress has the lowest approval of any entity in Government, now is the
time when Americans will join together to reform Congress - the entity that
represents us.

We need to get a Senator to introduce this bill in the  US  Senate and a
Representative to introduce a similar bill in the  US  House.  These people
will become American hero's..  *

Thanks,
A Fellow American*


.*Congressional Reform Act of 2010
*
*
**1. Term Limits: 12 years only, one of the possible options below.

A. Two Six year Senate terms
B. Six Two year House terms
C. One Six year Senate term and three Two Year House terms*

        Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career.  The Founding Fathers
envisioned citizen legislators, serve your term(s), then go home and back to
work.




*2.  No Tenure / No Pension:

    A congressman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when
they are out of office.*

    Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career.  The Founding Fathers
envisioned citizen legislators, serve your term(s), then go home and back to
work.




*3.  Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security:

    All funds in the Congressional retirement fund moves to the Social
Security system immediately.  All future funds flow into the Social Security
system, Congress participates with the American people.*

    Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career.  The Founding Fathers
envisioned citizen legislators, server your term(s), then go home and back
to work.




*4. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan just as all Americans*.

    Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career.  The Founding Fathers
envisioned citizen legislators, serve your term(s), then go home and back to
work.




*5. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise.  Congressional pay
will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.*

    Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career.  The Founding Fathers
envisioned  citizen legislators, serve your term(s), then go home and back
to work.




*6. Congress looses their current health care system and participates in the
same health care system as the American people.

*    Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career.  The Founding Fathers
envisioned citizen legislators, serve your term(s), then go home and back to
work.




*7. Congress must equally abide in all laws they impose on the American
people.
*
    Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career.  The Founding Fathers
envisioned citizen legislators, serve your term(s), then go home and back to
work.



*
8. All contracts with past and present congressmen are void effective 1/1/11
**.**

    The American people did not make this contract with congressmen,
congressmen made all these contracts for themselves.*

    Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career..  The Founding Fathers
envisioned  citizen legislators, serve your term(s), then go home and back
to work.



If you agree with the above, pass it on to all in your address list.   If
not, just delete..

cairo dock ubuntu 9.10 no option to minimize windows to taskbar instead

You received this bug notification because you are a member of Cairo-
Dock Team, which is subscribed to cairo-dock in ubuntu.

Status in “cairo-dock” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released

Bug description:
i have compiz animations installed.  for minimize, i use the airplane effect.

i use cairo dock with the mac osx leopard theme.  I modified it further adding launchers and removing others.

the dock works perfect for me except for when i minimize windows, they do not go to the task bar.  
the windows do not appear in the dock.

i have tried clicking the checkboxes in the cario dock config screen, next to "only show running apps" and "show only minimized windows".

i would like to do one of two things from here. either 1. make the minimized window fly into the dock as a thumbnail (that is NOT so huge it expands the dock to an undesirable size) or 2. make minimized window fly to the taskbar and not involve the dock in this.

also when i restart my computer, and cairo dock starts up on with the startup applications, i get a black screen in the background instead of the transparent one.  i can go into theme manager and reselect my saved theme, then all is fine.  

in the theme manager section, when i try to delete a theme, the confirmation window pops up with a glitch.
the bubble only shows the red X and no check mark. and is cut in half.  if i press enter on the keyboard, the window closes, but the theme is NOT deleted.
