how to use users-admin remotely on Ubuntu
Lately I had the necessity to create an account and modify another one on an Ubuntu box at work. I've regularly logged on via a ssh -X shell and gave the command sudo users-admin resulting in a "blocked" window ... I mean one on which I wasn't able to unlock the command via an administrative password input.
After a little diggin' on the web I found that the solution is in giving this command:
sudo ck-launch-session users-admin &

Facebook Headquarters by Studio O+A
via contemporist.com
Contemporist showcases the inner design of the new Facebook headquarters by Studio O+A.
The image above show the best room (for my taste) and the un-personality of it screams vengeange.
The place looks cool, but lacks personality, identity and taste leaving me with a feeling of uncompleteness and "void".
Also the Studio O+A sports only short bio of the two founders, with no mention of other collaborators. Given the 17 year history and the clients list I do not believe they manage to follow projects with 4 arms. No social at all :-(

And what becomes of the newly unemployed journalist who doesn't set up a Twitter account like Pogue, who has posted more than 2,000 tweets on technology, fatherhood and other topics?
