I'm considering investing in an android tablet for pen testing. Does anyone know how capable they are with pen testing? Can they compile code or forward packets? Are any applications that work on linux going to work on them?
Pwniexpress is launching the Pwn Pad in april, a penetration testing tablet based on the nexus 7. So yes I think the Nexus 7 is a good choice.
Small update: Kali Linux NetHunter was released last month and appears to be the de-facto standard for pen testing from an Android platform
Because of the support for recompilation of drivers that are known to support monitor-mode and/or frame injection, it appears that testers are sticking to the Broadcom chipsets (BCM). bcm4xxx are especially popular on Android devices, especially and notably Samsung.
Working out of the box, you have the Samsung Galaxy S II and the Nexus One. Recently added out of the box support for the HTC EVO 4G is also currently available. Using CMC or similar technique (AOSP would just be too annoying), one could add in the drivers to other devices with similar BCM chipset WiFi boards.
Ideally, you'd use a Samsung Galaxy Note for the CMC conversion of the driver over to at least monitor-mode standards. Theoretically, wash(1) should work in both passive and active modes, but the active WPS attack in reaver would likely require some additional driver modifications.
However, with Complete Linux Installer (on a rooted device) or Ubuntu noroot, one could install BackTrack 5r3 with aircrack-gui-m4 and Johnny (or additionally, even Reaver Pro if the reaver bits are working) for excellent X11 GUIs to control attacks.
Outside of WiFi Analyzer, Fing, Shark, and zAnti -- I would definitely add in X-plore and androidVNC. Some apps are better done without X11, and some GUIs from X11 simply are not yet replaceable via the Android SDK, Play Store, or alternate app market.
My suggestion would be to wait for the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 to arrive to your US carrier (note that there is an international version already available, certainly preferred over the US versions for a variety of reasons) and purchase then, helping along with the development of that platform for penetration-testing specifications.
I have personally added the vulscan NSE script to zAnti to make it that much more powerful. Along with a BackTrack 5r3 install via Complete Linux Installer, it would be possible to run Metasploit (any web edition such as Community or Express) on the web ports and access it via an Android browser, in addition to running Nessus and accessing it with the Android SDK app.
Pen-testing is largely command line, only a few tools have GUIs and with the ones that do have them you're often better using the command line as you can then use bash to pipe the output into other tools. Tablets are great for media consumption but not content creation or development.
Just get a business sub-notebook and cover it with as many extra batteries and Alpha wifi dongles you can (keep RFID, ubertooth ect on the side).
I know you can run Linux on these devices. There is an app http://zantiapp.com/anti.html
See also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=967064 and http://www.androidauthority.com/android-hacking-apps-pentesting-57063/
The Nexus 7 runs Linux. And if you root it, you can add whatever utilities you want. Just bear in mind that they have to be compiled for ARM. You can also install your own toolchain (compiler et.al.).
However, it doesn't have a keyboard, which does somewhat limit its usefulness as a pen testing device. Obviously you can work around this, but it does raise the question of why you're not just bringing along laptop, since you can now find very thin, light, and yet very useful ones at around the $500 price point.

Anatoly Karpov - My 300 Best GamesProduct Code: B0006EU
Publisher: Chess Stars
Author: Karpov & Amannazarov
Year of Publication: 1997
Pages: 269
Notation Type: Figurine (FAN)
Book DescriptionI have played a huge amount of tournament and match games during my long chess career, roughly 2,500 altogether. From those games, I have selected only three hundred for this book, - the games I consider my best and most instructive ones.
My goal was to represent my most valuable creative achievements of the thirty years that have passed, from 1966 till 1996. The selection was subordinated to the following three criteria: strong opponent, tense fight, and instructive value. Therefore this collection of games can be treated also as a modern chess instruction book, because the games were played mainly in the strongest events of the last thirty years.
Under such a strict selection procedure, many interesting and instructive games as well as simply beautiful fragments would have inevitably been missing in this book, if the games had been included into it only entirely. Therefore, the final chapter contains a number of my best combinations and finals which are essential for achieving the abovementioned goal; without them, this work would have been incomplete.
I still play a lot and still achieve tournament successes, so it would be premature to accept this book as my final account. I sincerely hope to play a number of good games in upcoming events and to raise my own account of tournament triumphs (I have over 140 of them recently - more than any player in chess history). However, so many chessfriends had expressed their desire to have this book right now that I decided to prepare this sort of an intermediate report on my 30 years in chess. Let reading this work bring you pleasure and improve your understanding of chess inner logic, depth and beauty.

Incompatibilty Sencha 2.1 - Cordova 2
I have found that the new Sencha 2.1 update is incompatible with Cordova 2.0. Can't give much more info: The same app with Sencha 2.0 works with the Cordova library while, if update to 2.1, it stops working (white screen after launch image). So the situation is the following:
Sencha 2.0 + Cordova 2.0 works but ios6 bug
Sencha 2.1 + Cordova 2.0 ios6 bug fixed but doesn't work

Hi again mitchellsimoens, not quite sure what remote debugger can I use (any suggestion will be much appreciated). What I have discovered by running the app in the safari browser is this message:
[WARN][Ext.data.reader.Reader#process] sencha-touch-all-debug-2.1.js:102614[WARN][Ext.data.reader.Reader#process] Unable to parse the JSON returned by the server: SyntaxError: JSON Parse error: Unrecognized token '/'
And the las portion of code I think it is executing is:
Ext.getStore('gameDataSt').load({ callback: cargaBasesDeDatos, scope: this });
My store definition is:
Ext.define('LG_Menu.store.gameDataSt', { extend : 'Ext.data.Store', config:{ model: 'LG_Menu.model.gameDataMdl', autoLoad: true, proxy: { type: 'ajax', url : './data/gameData.json', reader: { type: 'json', rootProperty: 'gameDBData' } } } });

The error related to the .json was because there was a //comment in the file ¿¿¿¿ is this normal ???? It does work with previous versions.
Anyway, it is still not working (white screen) . Following tricks from the forum users I have come to find that it doesn't find the Dom.js file. ??? Any help ?
So, the situation is the following.
Cordova 2.0 - Sencha 2.0 Works !!
Cordova 2.0 - Sencha 2.1 (rc1 and rc2) Doesn't works
XCode 4.5.1
App works in web browser
White screen after the launch images.
- Doesn't find the /Dom.js file.
Please note that this didn't fix the problem:
Ext.Loader.setConfig({ enabled: true, disableCaching: false });

For what it's worth, I've managed to get ST2.1rc2 to run under PhoneGap/Cordova 2.1, without any problems related to the combination of the two.
(There were plenty of problems with both upgrades individually. I'd recommend starting from the template app that each platform generates, and seeing where your app differs. Also make sure you test the Sencha app using its "production" build.)
15 Oct 2012 9:51 PM #7
16 Oct 2012 3:36 AM #8
I have found this comment around the web, could it help?
Is Sencha Touch 2.1 b3 compatible with Cordova 1.9 or 2.1? When I tried the combination, it has a problem loading the view even. If I use a ST 2.0.1 project in Cordova 1.9 or 2.1, it seems ok. If I run the ST 2.1 project in a web browser, it seems ok also. However, the combination has some weird problems. I have to include in the Ext.loader a path for Ext that points to touch/src (the SDK sources) even though the sencha-touch-all.js is included in the index.html.
17 Dec 2012 4:32 AM #9
This is still an issue with the latest version of ST 2.1 and Cordova 2.1. I can get my application to run in the IOS simulator without any errors, but it only shows a white screen. I can add alerts around where I add a view to the viewport. All of the alerts appear, however, the view I added to the viewport never appears. When running this same exact application in a browser on Google Chrome, everything appears correctly.
One thing I did try was running the Getting Started example in Cordova 2.1. The bottom navigation bar does appear, but it appears down the left side of the screen and the main content never appears. (Screenshot attached) I don't have a main nav on the first screen of my app so I'm not sure if the main nav would be appearing for my app or not.
Are there any examples that have been tested with ST2.1 and Cordova 2.1+? I have no problem modifying my app to function a different way if I had a good example to work from.
22 Dec 2012 1:05 PM #10
I am trying to understand the implications
I'm trying to make a Sencha app for a client that will run with IOS and Android as well as the desktop using Sencha Architect with Touch 2.1. I can make something that will run on the desktop, on Android and even in the IOS simulator, but can't get it to run on an IOS device. (It says that it can't be loaded.)
Trying to work around the issue, I went to Phonegap, then to Adobe Phonegap Build and then to Cordova (after I learned it was the current Phonegap). In fact, Adobe Phonegap Build was what allowed me to make a successful Android device build, but when IOS is the target I get a white screen. Looking at the log, it seems that it may be having memory issues, but it's hard to tell for sure.
Bottom line: Can one use Architect/Touch 2.1 to make apps that run on an IOS device? Could I see an example that I could build and run myself?

Questions on Photography Stack Exchange are expected to relate to photography within the scope defined by the community. Consider editing the question or leaving comments for improvement if you believe the question can be reworded to fit within the scope. Read more about reopening questions here.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
Here is the general technique. You can't make a single image re-size, but you can have several images. The main background image set to clip to the div it is in. Then you have an image on each side you want to fade out. Each of these are a gradient from background to transparent. I've attached an example to make it more clear. When the div is re-sized, the clipping images are moved to create the effect.
The photo that you present as an example has a shallow depth of field given by the large aperture used to capture it. It also can be given by a moderately large aperture used in combination with a long focal length lens.
This is a photography website, so above are the details on the photographic part of the image. You can also achieve a similar but not exact(opinion) effect by using software to blur the image in certain areas. Adobe Photoshop is commonly used for this.
The fact that you used the tag "fireworks" in the post leads me to believe that you are asking about web design, and if that is the case then this question for that scope would likely be off topic on this photography website, you can try the graphic design stack exchange here: http://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/

I am trying to understand a step in the math given a scientific paper. They differentiate an objective function of the form:
$$snr = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n x_it_i}{\sum_{i=1}^n x_id_i} $$
To maximize this function they partially differentiate this function with respect to $x_i$.
$$\frac{\partial{snr} }{\partial{x_i}} = \frac{\dfrac{t_i}{d_i}-\frac{\sum_{j=1}^n x_jt_j}{\sum_{j=1}^n x_jd_j}}{\frac1{d_i}\sum_{j=1}^n x_jt_j} $$
any clues as to how to go that step will help im pretty lost.....

In Jagged-Alliance-2: Unfinished Business there is an option to add additional guns to the game. Does this increase the difficulty of the game (Say by giving your opponents better weapons while leaving your starting weapons the same), decrease it (Give you better starting weapons, give you more options latter on) or not really effect the difficulty of the game?
Does the ADDITIONAL GUNS option in Jagged Alliance 2: Unfinished Business effect the difficulty of the game?
I provide this answer although I never played UB, but am pretty sure that the option has the same effect as in standard JA2.
Jagged Alliance has some sort of algorithm that gives your opponents weapons to fit the sectors difficulty. The option has no effect on how good certain weapons are, but the games table to choose a weapon from is just bigger.
I did not want to write the above stuff without confirmation, so here it goes:

Start a new project on Sench Touch pre 2? Or start with 1.1.1?
I'm new with Sencha touch. Do you recommend to start a new project with the pre-version 2, or start with the 1.1.1?
A lot of blog posts is related to the version 1... How the version 2 is different to the version 1.1.1? It's a big step do upgrade an application 1.1.1 to 2?

There are quite a bit of differences between Sencha Touch 1 and 2. Performance for Sencha Touch 2 is a lot better than Sencha Touch 1. The class system is a lot more mature and inline with Ext JS 4. MVC implementation in Sencha Touch 2 is (and once complete) will be far greater than Sencha Touch 1. So Sencha Touch 2 is a better framework. The bad part is we are only in developer preview stage so if you need to have an application done in the next month then it may be a wiser idea to stick with Sencha Touch 1. I personally have dropped Sencha Touch 1 for Sencha Touch 2 for my projects. Yes there are bugs but I either create overrides to fix the problem or work on some other piece. PR3 is due out soon and has a lot of bug fixes that are crucial compared to PR2.Mitchell Simoens @LikelyMitch

Like Mitchell said, if your project's deadline isn't in a month I would start with 2.0. In addition to what he said, learning 2.0 will give a big jump on Ext JS 4 if you're not already using it as the MVC and class system is very similar. I think many of the Ext JS 4 guides also are good for Touch 2 - MVC, classes, and theming using SASS.
9 Dec 2011 11:34 PM #4
Ok, thanks for the responses!
So, I'll start with the pre 2. The project is for 2-3 month. Yet, it's just for a prototype.
There is some date/roadmap for the release of the version 2?
12 Dec 2011 2:17 AM #5
I just try the pre 3 some hours... I really like the framework and how to create classes! It's a great framework!!!
Could someone to response to my question about the roadmap/dates?

"Kincannon is a conservative, but his comments were tasteless. What was the purpose?"
Yes his comments were tasteless and I would guess his purpose was to get attention. But what's your purpose in pointing out that he is a conservative? Why is this noteworthy? A stupid, tasteless comment is stupid and tasteless regardless of whom makes it.Hide replies
it's called RACE BAITING
You must be pretty naive to question it. It is not as though Kincannon was a run of the mill conservative. He is a former executive director of the GOP in S. Carolina.
My guess is that the RNC is not going to cuddle up to him in the future.
bingcherry - Today at 12:48 PM:
"My guess is that the RNC is not going to cuddle up to him in the future."
Gee....ya think so??
funny James... You just could not refrain from being racist yourself with this article, could you? I bet that daddy Earl is so proud of you! Now, why does it become an important fact that Kincannon is conservative? I am a conservative too, but do I agree with what he said. The only reason that you blacks are so against this killing is that Zimmerman is perceived as white, which he isn't. Where is the outcry about black on black murders? We NEVER hear blacks talk about them! James, this is a disgusting article by you.Hide replies
If you had made the remarks, no one would care. The man who made these statements has held a prominent position with the GOP. Personally I've never heard of him before so if James had just said his name with no explanation as to who he is politically the article would have made no sense.
@youwill- it's a shame that you think it's fun to turn everything into a ranting session about black people...and what even worse is you don't think there's annoying wrong with that...pitiful....
PR really? I didnt write the article to which I was commenting! Cheek for a cheek and if you don't like it, I really won't lose any sleep! And for future use PR, don't put words or expressions into what I opine on, okay?
youwillsee - just calling 'em like I see 'em....you rant about black people, all the time and you congratulate James for suddenly "getting it" when he points out something that black folks need to do....you'd be a big fat liar if you say otherwise....don't need to put words into your mouth....all you have to do is show me all of your posts where you're insulting, ranting about, and calling white JSOnline journalists "racist"...I won't hold my breath waiting for your "examples" because there are none....face it, you like to talk trash, about black people...well, everyone has a talent....
see PR, there you go again, putting words into my mouth! Why is it racist when a Latino shoots a black? Think about the word RACE. What is the difference if a black shoots a black? The culture loves to scream racism at every turn. Maybe I do like to call out the social dysfunction (talk trash in your words), but there is so much to point out! Also PR, why do you seem to have a problem when I congratulate James on a well written piece? Is this comment something that a white male conservative cannot do? Need I ask your permission first?
You never seem to mention that Martin had a long record of juvenile offenses - involving stolen jewelry and drug paraphernalia. Why not?Hide replies
Because it's irrelevant.
Bing, it's as relevant as highlighting Kincannon being a conservative, and you defended that earlier.
Kincannon is a noteable conservative who has held senior positions in the GOP. Like it or not, his drunken tweets reflect poorly on the party.
Martins previous encounters with the law are not a reason to " ...be put down like a rabid dog"
I'm sorry if you cannot see the difference.
bingcherry - Today at 1:03 PM:
"Because it's irrelevant."
If his past criminal behavior is irrelevant it surely won't be mentioned in trial...right? Highly unlikely!
everything is relevant Bink! This story has the same meaning without the word conservative in it, Where does politics play into this? It doesn't
Kincannon is incredibly tasteless, and it is apparent that none, including Mr. Causey, bothered to check the font of this foolishness, if you can stomach it. Not defending him or his as sinine tweets. The entire thread is filthy nonsense, with "racism" evident by about all involved on both sides of the divide...along with any other -isms you can have. Check the context for yourself. Kincannon is one of a host of idiots, morons, and knuckleheads sharing general stupidity via Twitter.
gotta love how these things are supposed to be ignored and how "both sides" are suddenly guilty of "racism"...folks, it doesn't matter who said this in all reality but let's cut to the chase: just about any time something racially divisive and ignorant is said, and caught on tape or via some other electronic medium, it is a very safe bet that the perp is a conservative, white male who has absolutely nothing to lose...and they have nothing to lose because you will always have a certain subsection of *other* white males, who will mitigate and downplay the severity of what was said and then get indignant when you call "BS" on their statement....
barely 10 comments and the majority are already trying to find fault with Causey having the nerve to share this story....and many of the folks commenting here are the same ones who always *love* to show up and share "what black folks do"....sorry, a superficial "shame on you" followed up with supposedly inclusive "the blame belongs on both sides" baloney, is just plain silly....and please, click thumbs down all you want... I know the truth bothers those cemented to their narrow P.o.vHide replies
PR, racial profile much? So then it's safe to say that whenever I hear of a new shooting each night, that I can assume it's black? You are really special, aren't you....... not!
I had wondered where mitchgat had gotten to. Now I see that he has come back as portableremote.
Yep. Same guy.
@bigjim and outoftowner - really??? so you think that I'm mitch because I sound like him, when I'm calling out the hypocritical BS of conservative, white males, who have outrage that is usually aimed at black folks??? or maybe it's because I've taken what he's said many times, and reused it...surprised it took you this long to think that I'm him....Bootsagain said the same thing about a month ago...he was wrong too....the fact still remains though that you both are dithering (another "mitchism" I like) around the fact that you can't refute any of what I said...when all else fails, "flip the script" and try to gain some leverage...try again....
Let's start the blame for promoting racism with the media, specifically NBC news for selectively editing the sound bits that were played and made the story what it was not.
How many blacks believed what they heard and started with their racist chants?
Causey is at fault for mentioning this story before the trial began stirring the pot of racism.Hide replies
ahhh, the old "blame the media", flip the script game....just plain pathetic...
port - sometimes the truth does hurt the cause. Did I misstate something or not speak the truth?
portableremote - Today at 2:20 PM:

Yeah right, the left would never "flip the script" and try to place blame elsewhere [LMAO].

jack - how old are you, 12??? you won't address the fact that I was talking about Otto abusing the word "racist" and using the "media" as a scapegoat and in turn blaming Causey for even bothering to mention this Tweet....to me that's wrong...I know, you don't agree and I don't care that you don't agree but my points are still quite valid....
Because Kincannon has more than 32,000 Twitter followers and was the former Executive Director of a state's Republican Party makes this story newsworthy. Did Causey need to include the word "conservative"? In my opinion, he did not. The mere inclusion of "GOP" would have been sufficient for most readers. That said, to consider his mention of "conservative" as racist or race baiting is ridiculous.Hide replies
conservative and GOP go hand in hand, along with republican....just as liberal and democrat go hand in hand to most people....these words identify, qualify if you will, exactly who or what he's talking about....
PR, you are very wrong, there are liberal conservatives, there are far leaning right wingers, etc. You don't know what you are talking about! I call BS
"conservative and GOP go hand in hand, along with republican"
Not necessarily. Depends on what we're talking about at the time
For example, Libertarians are fiscally conservative -- sometimes more fiscally conservative than many republicans -- but tend to be quite liberal on some of the more prominent social issues.
the thing is though, my response was based on Paul's post....he was suggesting that the use of the word "conservative" was not necessary...he felt that the mere inclusion of the acronym "GOP" was enough...in the *context* of that (not sure why you're suddenly wedging Libertarians in here to prove some supposed point), Conservative and GOP are essentially synonyms....as are Liberal and Democrat....the majority of folks, in this country, associate "GOP" with "Conservative".... not sure why you don't get that....also not sure why you like to play devils advocate so much....
..."...Zimmerman viewed the unarmed teen as "suspicious" and approached Martin even after police told him not to...."....
You just always get the constant lies. It was Trayvon that instigated the altercation, the kid was two doors down from his house and decided to engage a beat down on the white hispanic. Everything would have just been hunky dory if littl' Trayvon would have run into his house and called the cops or told his guardians that a bad ole' white hispanic was on his trail. Zimmerman was finishing the call and Trayvon stalked him.
So, yeah, Trayvon suckered punched him and jumped him and started slamming his head into the concrete; kind of like a rabid dog. Its just same ole' same ole' in the moral bankruptcy that encompasses the landscape. The cops are a favorite whipping boy for the race hustlers, it dates back to the civil rights era and always makes for a bit of nostalgic fodder, so you disrespect everything of authority and make it a lesson for the children to continue the cultural implosion.
Liberals are just such two faced hypocrites on anything and everything since the "in the pocket" media just panders these issues in their own immoral fashion. Children are taking stray bullets all over urban america; just one dead after the next and barely a candle vigil burns. But, if the ingredients are right, or white, just "katie bar the doors" cause they'll be coming around the mountain when they come.Hide replies
..."...Zimmerman viewed the unarmed teen as "suspicious" and approached Martin even after police told him not to...."....
The police dispatcher is not a cop and has no authority to order anyone to do anything. The dispatcher "advised" Zimmerman not to approach Martin for his own safety....not Martins! Obviously the dispatcher isn't going to encourage Zimmerman to confront a suspicious person that might be armed.
That's right, and Zimmerman did "stand down." But, it does not matter to these people, its an outlaw society and it pushes to save the outlaw.
95% of the people playing the race card CHOOSE to be in same color/race relationships (marriage, shacking, friend(s)) yet the swear they're not bigots or racist. Go figure!

Assume, www.superexample.com is my domain name and ns1.somehosting.com is my nameserver. What I want is to show/set my nameservers as superexample.com or ns1.superexample.com. How? Please,don't say it's not possible, I've seen it on whois of several websites.
For something to be identified as a nameserver it must be one. This means that the server at superexample.com must be running both an HTTP server (HTTPD) and a DNS server (BIND) with a publicly reachable address and port..
You can see this with a lot of hosting sites, they run their own DNS servers and set themselves as the nameserver. Here is the record for Blue Host. On the other hand, as one of their customers, my site on Blue Host shows them as my DNS.
It needs a couple of things to be done:
Some, DNS does not allow single NS entry, in that case find two IP addresses being pointed by
You need to login domain management panel provided at the time you register your domains.
EDIT: This answer is based on:
Because previous answers are just bad:
www.superexample.com is NOT domain, it's FQDN of host in your domain, you domain is superexample.com with host in in www, and authoritative DNS-server of your domain is ns1.somehosting.com
If for registered and active domain you want to change FQDN of authoritative DNS-server and use DNS-server under your domain-name, you have

TORONTO - The last City Council meeting Thursday ended on a high note, with the city budget ending the year in the black.
Mayor John Geddis said the city's good financial outlook will enable it to do more projects in the coming year. "I congratulated council and the department heads for (ending the year in the black)," said Geddis, adding the city currently is on solid financial ground.
"We want to demolish more (dilapidated) structures this year. I also asked council members to make lists of streets in their wards that need paved."
Geddis said council passed an ordinance relating to year-end city finances. He also said it was the last council meeting for city Auditor Bob Owen, who announced his retirement at the previous council meeting. Owen has served as auditor for 10 years.
"I've always been lucky to work with good (city) auditors," said the mayor, adding Owen will be missed.
Geddis also said he knew the city was fortunate to be in good financial shape when other neighboring municipalities are struggling with tight budgets.
"We ended this year in the black," Geddis said. "We're looking forward to 2013."

Benefit to be held for Kraig Magnussen
March 14, 2013
FULDA FREE PRESS/Submitted photo
A benefit will held for Kraig Magnussen and his family on Saturday, March 23rd, 4-7 p.m. at the Fulda Legion/Community Hall.
By Norma Dittman, Fulda Free Press staff write
Kraig Magnussen, Fulda, was diagnosed with Gastroesophageal Adenocarcinoma - an incurable Stage 4 Cancer, at the beginning of February. He is being treated with radiation and chemotherapy. He is hospitalized at Avera, Sioux Falls, SD.
Family and friends of the Magnussen family have planned a benefit to help with some of the medical, travel, and other expenses that the family been incurring.
The free will benefit is planned for Saturday, March 23, 2013, 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. at the Fulda Legion/Community Hall. There will be great food, a silent auction and a regular auction, as well as entertainment by DJ Cory Paplow.
"Kraig was suffering with back pain already toward the end of October. He had a couple of adjustments with a chiropractor and the chiropractor referred him to Sioux Falls to have an epidural shot," Kraig's wife, Michelle, explained. On Christmas Eve, Kraig's 49th birthday, he left his mother's house to start a vehicle for the family's trip back to their home in Fulda. "Kraig slipped and fell. He has not been able to work since Christmas because he was in so much pain in his back."
Kraig's chiropractor referred him for another epidural shot which was done on January 29th. The doctor in Sioux Falls contacted the chiropractor as he noted significant bone loss in Kraig from the first shot to the second one.
Kraig had also lost thirty pounds between Christmas and January 29th.
Both Kraig's doctor in Sioux Falls and the chiropractor called the Magnussen's and told them that Kraig needed an immediate visit with his primary care physician.
"One morning, Kraig woke up with a large lump on the right side of his neck. He was in such pain all of the time and had been sleeping with his head hanging off of the bed. He and I talked about the lump and thought that it might just be that he had strained a muscle there. We soon found out that that wasn't so," Michelle said.
On Thursday, January 31st, Kraig went to Dr. Mary Olson, Windom, MN.
Kraig's doctor ordered a chest x-ray which came back abnormal. Two CT scans (one without contrast and one with contrast) were then ordered and they confirmed what had been learned via x-ray.
"I was at work on Friday when Dr. Olson called and told me that she was sending Kraig to Sioux Falls and I had to get him there immediately. I went into my boss and told him what they had said and then called Kraig and told him to please get in the shower and be ready to go by the time I got home to Fulda. When we arrived at Avera Hospital, they admitted Kraig right away," Michelle said.
An MRI revealed a mass in Kraig's chest, abnormal Lymph nodes, a blood clot in his right lung and a compression fracture of the L4 to L1 vertebraes in his back as a result of a tumor growing there.
It was learned that Kraig also had Superior Vena Cava Syndrome (SVC) which is a set of symptoms that result when blood flow through the superior vena cava (the large blood vessel that returns blood from the upper body back to the heart) is blocked. This syndrome is a complication that occurs in 2% to 4% of people living with lung cancer.
Biopsies were taken of the masses in Kraig's lungs through a scoping process, but the tissue samples were inadequate due to the fact that he had been given medication to help dissolve the blood clot in his lung.
Another biopsy was taken on Monday, February 4th. Kraig's doctor's also inserted a port-a-cath into his chest to be used for IVs and blood draws. A biopsy of the lump on the side of Kraig's neck proved to be a cancerous lymph node.
"The results of the biopsies are all considered lung cancer," Michelle explained.
Kraig was given a pain pump on Saturday, February 23rd, so that he could self administer Dilaudid every ten minutes. His doctors also ordered Fentanyl patches and injections and medications to help with nausea.
On Monday, February 25th, Kraig's doctors called Michelle and asked her to come to Sioux Falls as they needed to have a discussion with her regarding Kraig. They had learned that Kraig's upper spine area and liver were clear of cancer and they felt that a feeding tube for Kraig's nutritional health was necessary. On Monday evening, nutritional IVs were started.
On Wednesday, February 27th, Kraig received a feeding tube as he had been unable to eat for about three weeks. When attempting to eat he found it difficult to swallow foods of any kind. Many of them did not stay in his stomach following consumption.
Kraig has had some very difficult days since March began. His right lung has had to have several liters of fluid removed from them and he is now on a ventilator. On Sunday, Michelle was called to Sioux Falls as Kraig had quit breathing and medical staff performed life saving measures.
Kraig and Michelle are the parents of Kenny, Kody and Karter. Kenny is a junior this year and Kody is in the ninth grade at Fulda High School. Karter is a sixth grade student at Fulda Elementary School.
"Each time that I come back from Sioux Falls the boys and I have a discussion about Kraig and what is happening with his health care. I am not hiding anything from them because they have a right to know. For our family and friends, there is a Caring Bridge site for Kraig. The entry name for that is KraigMag," Michelle stated. "I just want people to know how much our family appreciates all of the support that has been given. I actually had to stop answering the telephone because I kept losing my voice. But, I do want people to know that their concern is very much appreciated."
Cards may be sent to Kraig at:
800 East 21st Street
Sioux Falls, SD 57117-5045
A Kraig Magnussen Trust Fund has been started at Wells Fargo Bank to help organize donations. Donations can be accepted at any Wells Fargo Bank.

The 5 Most Ridiculously Awful Computers Ever Made
#2. PocketMail (2000)
Imagine being able to check or send e-mail anytime, anywhere. If you just imagined you were back in the year 2000 with your PDA, shut up. We're talking about the miracle of PocketMail, which was like a PDA except all it did was send and receive e-mail. Hell, what's wrong with that? For 2000, that's still freaking state of the art!
Wait, did we mention that you had to hold it up to a land line telephone to work?
Keep in mind, cell phones had the ability to send texts as early as the mid 90s and, you know, there was always actual computers in your home, at the library, wherever. Plus if you were stuck out somewhere without a cell phone or a computer handy, you still needed to get to a payphone to use your PocketMail, at which point you could always just use the phone and call whoever you want to talk to, since you have to have the thing right there anyway.
It also pulled off the miraculous design feat of being too big to fit in your pocket, yet too small to be comfortable to type on like a laptop.
While a few people out there still sing the praises of PocketMail--the same people who used to do soil sampling out in the remote sections of the Mojave and wanted the convenience of being able to forward hilarious LOLcats at the same time--the rest of us realized that every single other portable device in the world offered the same feature plus numerous additions, none of which required you to hold it up to a phone. It was a solution to a problem that only like six people in the world had.
The company that manufactured the thing in Australia even crapped out on it and decided the next obvious business venture was uranium mining. Sure, we totally trust these guys with shipping tons of uranium around the world. No way that operation is going to result in a mountain exploding.
#1. The Apple III (1980)
Now just settle down, Apple lovers. We're all friends here. That's right, just lay the gun on the table. See, not so long ago Apple wasn't the kickass manufacturer of iPods and paper-thin laptops it is now. It was more of a shithole joke of a company that couldn't sell a whore to Charlie Sheen even if she came with QuickTime already installed. Lucky for them they persevered, despite a history of machines like the Apple III.
The Apple III, while aesthetically as retarded as any computer from the 80s, had the problem of trying to cram a whole lot of computer into a relatively small space. Which is totally in the spirit of cutting-edge Apple, only this is 1980 we're talking about here. As we mentioned, this was a time when any computer powerful enough to display a photograph required a crew of 30 men to stand in a circle and blow on it.
Nowadays, computers have internal cooling fans and heat sinks all over them to take care of this. Back in the 80s the Apple crew figured that shit was for pussies, so the aluminum case was meant to act as a heat sink; devoid of a fan or even vents. If you've ever tried to escape the summer heat by climbing into an unventilated aluminum box you'll understand why this was a shittastic idea.
The result was that chips would actually pop free from their sockets as the metal heated and expanded. Machine owners experiencing problems were given the most awesome set of troubleshooting instructions in the history of computing: Lift the dead machine a few inches of the ground and drop it. Turn it on and see if it works.
The hope was that the impact would seat the chips again. That's right. When Apple Computer, Inc., designer of some of the most elegant machines in the history of anything, got calls from thousands of customers that their new computer had died, their first question was, "Have you tried dropping it?"
There were other rumors about the Apple III, including that it could fucking melt floppy disks in the drive (though it seems like it would have fried wiring inside by the time it got up to that temperature, can you dismiss anything at this point?). We guess it's sort of inspirational that Apple recovered from that fiasco and now makes products that probably 80 percent of the people reading this have on their person.

What are good ways to think about Lagrangian submanifolds?
Why should one care about them?
More generally: same questions about (co)isotropic ones. Answers from a classical mechanics point of view would be especially welcome.
What are good ways to think about Lagrangian submanifolds?
Why should one care about them?
More generally: same questions about (co)isotropic ones. Answers from a classical mechanics point of view would be especially welcome.
Lagrangian submanifolds arise naturally in Hamiltonian Mechanics, because of the classical Arnold-Liouville theorem. Let me state it here:
Theorem (Arnold-Liouville). Let $(M, \omega, H)$ be an integrable system of dimension $2n$ with integrals of motion $f_1=H$, $f_2, \ldots, f_n$. Let $c \in \mathbb{R}^n$ be a regular value of $f:=(f_1, \ldots, f_n)$. Then the corresponding level $f^{-1}(c)$ is a Lagrangian submanifold of $M$.
Geometrically this means that, locally around the regular value $c$, the map $f \colon M \to \mathbb{R}^n$ collecting the integrals of motion is a Lagrangian fibration, i.e. it is locally trivial and the fibres are Lagrangian submanifolds.
Furthermore, one also shows that the connected components of $f^{-1}(c)$ are of the form $\mathbb{R}^{n-k} \times \mathbb{T}^k$, where $0 \leq k \leq n$ and $\mathbb{T}^k$ is a $k$-dimensional torus. In particular, every compact component must be a lagrangian torus.
For a proof of this result, see for instance the book by Ana Canas Da Silva "Lectures on symplectic geometry".
Everything is a lagrangian submanifold (A. Weinstein's lagrangian creed...) Indeed, every manifold is the lagrangian zero section of its cotangent bundle ;)
But more serious: Weinstein's tubular neighbourhood theorem states that every lagrangian submanifold in a symplectic manifold has a neighbourhood symplectomorphic to a neighbourhood of the zero section of the cotangent bundle.
Occurences of lagrangian submanifolds are indeed manifold: they arise as semiclassical support for certain FIO's and can also be thought of as semiclassical version of states in quantum mechanics via the WKB expansion. This point of view is exemplified a lot in the nice booklet of Bates and Weinstein.
Another occurence of coisotropics is in constraint mechanics: In Dirac's theory of constraints a coisotropic submanifold is what he calls a first class constraint. They arise very often in geometric mechanics with degenerate Lagrangians etc.
They are also the natural starting point for reduction: this is perhaps the more modern "coisotropic creed" of Lu (everything is a...)
Finally, to make the deformation quantization aspects a bit more precise: if you are looking for a submanifold $C \subseteq M$ in a Poisson manifold with star product $\star$ which allows for a (say) left module structure on $C^\infty(C)[[\hbar]]$ in such a way that the zeroth order of the module structure is the usual multiplication by the restriction, then you can show quite easily that $C$ has to be coisotropic. Martin Bordemann has a nice point of view how this relates to a theory of quantizing reduciton etc. in his (french!) big preprint :) In particular, the classical vanishing ideal becomes deformed into a left ideal for the star product (this was, I guess, essentially Lu's suggestion)
Note however, that there are other left ideals not of this form, e.g. the Gel'fand ideals of positive functionals, which can be much smaller.
The role of the lagrangian submanifolds $L$ in this context is that the corresponding representation on $C^\infty(L)[[\hbar]]$ becomes "irreducible" in a meaningful way (trivial commutant in the local operators). However, this only makes sense in the symplectic surrounding. In a truly Poisson manifold, only coisotropic makes sense.
I want to answer the question "why should I care about Lagrangians" by showing how they arise when you try to answer a very natural question which in some sense lies at the heart of classical mechanics.
Suppose we consider some physical system in which the possible configurations correspond to points in a manifold $M$. Given two points $p, q \in M$ a natural question is to ask, is there some initial momentum one can select at $p$ under which after 1 second the configuration will have evolved into the configuration $q$?
In the Hamiltonian formulation of classical mechanics, the position and momentum of a system is described by the points of the cotangent bundle $T^*M$. This is a symplectic manifold in a natural way. The physics of the system are described by a so-called Hamiltonian function $H \colon T^*M \to \mathbb{R}$ and the evolution of the system is given by the flow of the Hamiltonian vector field $X_H$ associated to $H$. We can now rephrase our question as follows: is there a point $x$ in $T^*_pM$ such that the time-1 flow of $X_H$ starting at $x$ lies on the fibre $T^*_qM$? In other words, if I look at the image of $T^*_pM$ under the time-1 flow of $X_H$, does it intersect $T^*_qM$?
What does this have to do with Lagrangians? Well the fibres $T^*_pM$ and $T^*_qM$ are special cases of Lagrangian submanifolds. The image of $T^*_pM$ under the flow of $X_H$ is certainly no longer a fibre but, since the flow of $X_H$ preserves the symplectic form, the image of $T^*_pM$ remains a Lagrangian submanifold.
From this point of view you can think of a Lagrangian submanifold as a generalisation of "the set of possible initial momenta of a given point in configuration space". Moreover, this gerenalisation is forced on you, even if you only care about the very natural question described above. Finally, I hope this answer explains not only why Lagrangians are interesting, but why the possible intersections of different Lagrangians is interesting.
(Credit where credit is due: I guess this picture goes back at least to Arnold. I heard it in a seminar the other week given by Fukaya. The study of intersections of Lagrangians has become a huge industry recently, building essentially on the pioneering ideas of Floer.)
Lagrangian submanifolds arise out of Hamiltonian mechanics, where you have position and momentum variables. The beauty of Hamiiltonian mechanics is the symmetry between position and momentum. Inside the combined position-momentum space, you have two natural foliations, where either all the position variables are held fixed or all of the momentum variables are held fixed. The leaves are Lagrangian submanifolds, and any Lagrangian submanifold can be viewed as a leaf of such a foliation.
A Lagrangian submanifold is locally equivalent to the zero section of a cotangent bundle.
A more general form of Francisco's answer is that coisotropic submanifolds are those locally defined as the zero set of some Poisson commuting functions, and Lagrangians are those where the number of independent functions is maximal.
Lagrangian submanifolds have a lot of faces though; for example, the graph of a isomorphism from one symplectic manifold $(M_1,\omega_1)$ to another $(M_2,\omega_2)$ is Lagrangian in the symplectic structure $-\omega_1+\omega_2$ if and only if the map is a symplectomorphism. This fact has led many (myself included) to think of Lagrangian submanifolds of the product of two symplectic manifolds as a sort of "generalized map" between them. In this philosophy, a Lagrangian submanifold inside any symplectic manifold would be a "generalized point."
Coisotropic manifolds are also shadows of the representation theory of a deformation quantization; any such representation must have coisotropic limit (this is essentially Gabber's theorem) [perhaps it's better to say should have coisotropic limit, for some definition of "should"].
More on the dynamical relevance of Lagrangian submanifolds for autonomous Hamiltonian systems:
Any Lagrangian submanifold which is contained in a regular energy level is automatically invariant for the dynamics.
When applied to Lagrangian graphs inside cotangent bundles, this observation leads to the stationary Hamilton-Jacobi equation.
Another (classical) way to think of a Lagrangian submanifold: the differential $df$ of a function on a manifold can be thought of as an $n$-dimensional submanifold in the cotangent space $T^*M$. How to characterize all n-dim submanifolds in $T^*M$ which are of this form? They are precisely the Lagrangian submanifolds (which are additionally transversal to the projection $T^*M\to M$). This geometric point of view comes in handy when trying to solve Hamilton-Jacobi equations $H(x,p)=0$.
Since you've already gotten lots of classical mechanical answers, I'll give my favorite source of Lagrangians. Let $\sigma$ be a holomorphic section of a Hermitian line bundle $\mathcal L$ with curvature $\omega$, over a K\"ahler manifold $M$. An algebraic geometer would tell you to look at where $\sigma$ is $0$. But I'll tell you to look at where $|\sigma|$ is maximized.
This is always isotropic, and usually Lagrangian. One example to think about: $\mathcal L = O(n)$ over $\mathbb{CP}^1$. Then the section $x^k y^{n-k}$ is maximized on a circle for $0 < k < n$, and at a point for $k =0,n$.

Treating Fever in Young Children
Q: What do you do about a high fevers in a young child? My three-and-a-half-year-old son recently had a cold and stuffy head, and was running a moderate fever (around 100 degrees). We put him to bed, gave him lots of juice and water, and some children's Tylenol for the fever. Since I don't like to give him medicine too often, I was wondering if there is an agreed-upon temperature at which a child should be given medication, or does it depend more on how a child is behaving?
A: Fevers are very common, often making young children feel uncomfortable and just not act like themselves. In turn, fevers also cause lots of anxiety in parents. It is important for you to understand fevers so that you can feel comfortable in your approach to caring for your child.
A temperature greater than 100.4 degrees F is defined as a fever. A healthy child's temperature fluctuates within a normal range. We all tend to have higher temperatures in the later afternoon and into the evening. Fevers are common with many of the routine illnesses like ear infections, throat infections, and even the common cold. High fevers do not cause brain damage. Fever is actually a positive sign that your child's immune system is functioning to fight infection. In fact, some infectious disease specialists even recommend not overmedicating your child with things to bring the fever down. It is also important to realize that it's not necessarily how high the fever is, but how comfortable or uncomfortable your child is with the other symptoms of the illness. As you point out, fever alone may make a child very uncomfortable, and if he is, using one of these medications (e.g., acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil or Motrin) may help.
There are things you can do, other than giving medication, when your child is not feeling well and has a fever. Dress your child in light clothing. Give him a bath with lukewarm water. Encourage him to drink liquids as much as he can and allow him time to rest. If your son is not behaving the way you're used to giving a dose of acetaminophen or ibuprofen may help. If it doesn't, then a phone call to your child's doctor is warranted. How is your child behaving? How comfortable are you with your child's degree of illness? These factors are more important than how high his fever is.

Does this officially work now?
Does this officially work now?
yeah.would also like to know if this works 100% with FM11
it works for me. just do what milco35 says a few posts up and enjoy.
do not try this pack for FM2011
it will not WORK you have bee warned
we need a updated version as there is many files that are new to FM11 and wont be usable once you overwrite
Hi guys.
This is just a heads up, to let you know that I'm not buying FM2011 until patch 3 this time around, and as such, will not be in a position to work on a new Sound Pack until then, if this one does not work on 11.
I'm still really enjoying a few saves on FM10 at the moment, and the last couple of years I've not really enjoyed the game until the final patch was released; so I decided to carry on enjoying my games on the excellent 10.3 for now.
During the last year though, a few members here emerged as being very capable of producing add ons to my original pack, so I'm sure someone here can come up with a great Sound Pack for you.
If no-one else has made one by the time patch 3 comes out though, I'll be happy to produce another Sound Pack.
Just wanted to let you know my position, so as you're not waiting around for me.
Thanks, and I hope you all enjoy your new game.
Thanks for the update!
Enjoy your 10.3 games!
Fingers crossed for someone else to create this.
I've updated the pack for FM11, it's basically the same sound pack for FM10 with all the team/player chants i added on, just with a couple of tweaked sounds.
Just testing it for errors now, i'll upload it soon.
Seems to be fine. Uploading now.. it may take a while though.
let me know when its posted lol
Sound Pack for use with Football Manager 2011 Only Created by Bennico, edited by me.
Installation instructions are in the 'Read Me'
Don't forget to back up your original Events/ Sounds folder incase of any future problems!
Download here.
If anybody spots any bugs, just let me know.
Last edited by Barkermush; 17-11-2010 at 01:50. Reason: added download link
Cheers for this, you not on msn much these days
I should have the file soon and start testing it out
Hi Barkermush:
Thank you very much for releasing the soundpack, I do love it and I was waiting for this at FM 2011. However once I installed it and played the first game I've got a crash dump at minute 10. It seems FM2011 is so unstable and sensitive whenever you add stuff (skin, logos, etc) to the game.
I'd like to know if this soundpack works well for others.
I'll give this a try, sounds interesting and as you say, if we back up the files first we should be able to go back to original without a problem... Thanks for your work Barkermush, I'll post on how it goes for me.
The soundpack works just fine. I used the old 2010 and I've played more than 30 games without any errors. Same goes for facepacks, kits, logos. No errors here.
The link is in post #136. i've just downloaded and installed it.
thanks phno, does it work ?
I downloaded and it runs sweet for me, adds loads more atmosphere to games
In my case I've done what milco35 suggests copying just the match_sounds.cfg file and the whole sounds folder. However in my first match I've got a crash and FM11 closes.
Has this to be with sound card? Anyone has an idea why this soundpack worked for FM10 and not for FM11?
started using this the last couple of days and I've had a few annoying crash dumps which I havent experience before, not saying this is responsible but it could well be. Otherwise it's a fantastic pack and adds so much to the game
use the new updated version it works fine and is great, also teh FM10 version worked as long as you don't use the match_sounds.cfg file
Do you mufckgud7 overwrite the original events file with the updated version' files? Both files (events folder)?
I encountered one crash in my first game (around 10 minutes) using the updated version. The same happened just overwriting match_sounds.cfg to the original folder. Maybe it is just me. I remember having the array out bounds message with the sound pack last year but never crashed. I just clicked ok in that message and I was back to the match. Now all i get is a crash so I need to reload the game
If anyone can help, I appreciate it
Thanks for your reply mufckgud7.
When you download the soundpack you have two folders: events and sounds. From your reply I interpret you just copy and paste the sounds folder (from the soundpack) in FM2010 data folder. Do you keep then the original events folder (with both files: matchsound.cfg and events.cfg)?
If so, you will not listen those sounds added to the soundpack's events folder.
I apologize if I am not explaining this rightly, but I'm worried not having this (soundpack) working in FM 2011
Ok. Thing is doing so I have a crash and FM2011 closes.
I can only think I'm unfortunate not having the possibility to enjoy this soundpack because I have the same computer (with no new software nor hardware) as year before where the soundpack worked with FM 2010.
Hi, first up gr8 original pk from bennico loved it on fm10,2nd many thks to Barkermush for updating and sorting it out for fm11 works gr8 and extra sounds added improve it more!
just wanna ask if its ok to upload/share onto another forum i use if i put all credits due to Bennico/Barkermush ?
so this works with the commentary pack?
as i already have that installed...
I have just dowloaded the FM2011 version of this soundpack. Can somebody advise what I need to do with regards to the soundcfg and events cfg files to get it working correctly
Loving this!
Small error: 'dissapointing' - misspelling.
2. Copy the sound folder to x:\program files\sports interactive\football manager 2011\data folder...click yes to overwrite.
Can't seem to find the folder on my pc. how do i get to these folders
1. Copy the match_sounds.cfg from the soundpack to the x:\program files\sports interactive\football manager 2011\data\events\ folder and replace the one inthere. DONT COPY THE EVENTS.CFG!!!
2. Copy the sound folder to x:\program files\sports interactive\football manager 2011\data folder...click yes to overwrite.
Yes,does that make any difference?
How do I stop Steam from realizing the program files aren't what Steam put there, and "fixing" them because Steam thinks they're corrupted?
in this folder
\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\football manager 2011\data\events
Cheers,will it work for an already started game or will it only work with a new game?
just place the files in the correct folders then overwrite once done load FM up then in preferences > display and sound, make sure you use all sounds.
Yes it will work with any game as long as fm was no running when transfering files over.
working fine for me.......thanks for the sound pack!
Seems to be working fine for me; 3 games without any issues at all. And the extra sounds are a tidy little addition to the game. Good work, Bennico and Barkermush.
Any one tried this with FM 12 yet?
I woud like to know too.
I have some of it seems okay
Can't find mt data folder. It's not in Steam folder or My Docs FM12. Any ideas anyone?
Thank you my good man, I shall have a look if I ever get home!!!
No news about fm 12 soundpack?
not looking good
has bakermush not updated it or is there any news does the 2011 one work???
Tried the 2011 download on fm 2012, there was sound, didnt crash and the new chants were there, so to me it worked fine with football manager 2012
i got errors when using the 2011 one,although it didnt crash, every few seconds it would come up with error when trying to load certain sounds and it wasnt using the match events cfg file neither.
i didnt get any of those, im also using a commentary pack download, not sure if that has affected it at all, but its fine for me, i was also using it on 12.0.4 havent been on to update to 12.1.0 not sure if it'll still work with the update
could somone reupload the 2011 one please the link here is down
I've not been to bothered about sounds with FM12, and I've just been playing with the sounds off, due to the poor default sounds. Untill recently, I've decided to create a 'mini soundpack' and by mini, I mean I've just changed most of the default sounds, to better sounds. (I've not added any extra chants etc)
Football Manager 2011 Soundpack
And for anybody who still wants the FM10 Soundpack, I've re-uploaded it here:
Football Manager 2010 Soundpack
Last edited by Barkermush; 24-02-2012 at 15:36. Reason: added FM10 soundpack link
Well i have the 2012 one working to a degree with football manager 2013 but it cuts out after a go or so and goes all funny.
Baker please help a fellow claret out it adds so much to the game and match atmosphere is there going to be a update for 2013
All the best
could be fantastic a update pack for fm 13
Are there any sound packs out there for FM13? would love a more atmospheric sound to go with the match day experience.
the 2012 one which was made by bennico but edited by Bakermush is quality it just keeps stopping on me after about 2 games.
Here you go though: http://www.gamefront.com/files/22590...+soundpack.rar
Mirror: http://www.filedropper.com/fm12minisoundpack
Make sure you backup your orginal sounds and events folder, incase you encounter any future problems etc.Code:Installation: Place the two folders 'sounds' and 'events' in Program Files \ Steam \ SteamApps \ common \ football manager 2012 \ data \
This pack is For FM12, not FM13
Last edited by Barkermush; 06-11-2012 at 11:37. Reason: Added 2nd link
Bakermush any plans to get the one working for 2013 it nearly does mukka
Bakermush can you reupload the mini soundpack plz? Thanks in advance!
I follow the instruction but cannot get it to work. I think it's because the filename in Win8 is case sensitive. The original files have lower case in their name. The new files have ALL UPPER CASE so Win8/MAC can't find the file. Or 13.2.2 can't I'm not too sure.
If you have the pack with the lower case file name please give it to us. I will test it. I don't know how to change all 4000+ file names into lower case tho.
Is there any updated versions due out be nice to hear the Van Persie chant, don't hear it on the version i have got.

KILLEEN (December 19, 2012)--The Killeen Police Department will be increasing the number of officers patrolling during the Christmas and New Year holidays.
That's because there's usually more traffic and more accidents this time of year, Killeen police spokeswoman Carroll Smith said.
"It is the officers' goal to remove impaired drivers from the roadways and prevent potential injuries and loss of life to local drivers and holiday travelers," Smith said.
Drivers are encouraged to observe the posted speed limits and to avoid drinking and driving for their own safety and the safety of others.

Emmentaler cheese goes great with zucchini and tastes great in a crepe.
Prep Time: 10M
Cooking Time: 15M
Serves: Makes 4
- 1 tbsp olive oil, plus more as needed
- 2 small zucchini, coarsely grated
- 1 cup shredded Emmentaler or other Swiss cheese

- Sift the flour into a mixing bowl with a pinch of salt and make a well in the center. Put the egg and a little of the milk in the well. Gradually stir the egg mixture, letting a little of the flour fall in as you go and adding the rest of the milk a little a time. When it's all incorporated, beat the mixture with a balloon whisk or electric mixer to remove any lumps. Transfer to the refrigerator to rest for 30 minutes.
- Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a frying pan, add the zucchini, and cook over medium heat for 5-8 minutes or until lightly golden. Season well with salt and pepper, then remove from the heat and stir in the cheese.
- Heat a small frying pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add a tiny amount of oil, then swirl it around the pan and pour the excess into a cup. Add 2 tablespoons of batter to the pan and swirl so it covers the bottom. Loosen the edges of the crêpe with a spatula and cook for 1 minute, until golden. Flip and cook the other side for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until set. Slide the crêpe onto a warm plate and repeat.
- Spoon a quarter of the zucchini mixture onto half of a crêpe, sprinkle with pepper, then roll or fold it. Fill three more crêpes in the same manner.
- Use 4 asparagus spears per crêpe, instead of zucchini.
