Boston is the third largest genealogical research center in the country after Washington, DC, and Salt Lake City because of the high concentration of libraries and archives in the area. Not only that, but many of them are either within walking distance of each other or on public transportation lines. The oldest public transportation system in the United States, the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA, <www.mbta.com>), affectionately known as the "T" by residents, is organized by color and easy to use. Rail lines connect to Logan Airport and Amtrak, and the MBTA offers a special visitor package ($6 a day) that you can purchase online. So leave your car at home and save on parking.
A first stop for any genealogist is the astounding hub of facilities in the Back Bay neighborhood. The New England Historic Genealogical Society (101 Newbury St., 617-536-5740, <www.newenglandancestors.org>) has extensive holdings on New England, of course, but also has one of the largest collections of Canadian materials in the United States and a reading room dedicated to British resources. This membership organization collects genealogies and local histories from across the country. Visitors pay a $15 per day fee applicable to a membership.

Masterson looks to help Tribe end skid
The Boston Red Sox may be trying for their longest winning streak in 10 months, but they're probably more concerned with playing a small part in helping a city heal from tragedy.
After winning their first game since the Boston Marathon bombing, the Red Sox will try to continue their success and hand Cleveland Indians right-hander Justin Masterson his first loss of the season Wednesday night.
The Red Sox (9-4) beat the Indians 7-2 in the opener of this three-game series Tuesday in their first game against former manager Terry Francona, who helped them win two World Series in eight years.
The reunion was an afterthought since the Sox were also taking the field a day after a pair of explosions near the Boston Marathon's finish line killed three and injured more than 170.

The Red Sox also displayed a jersey with No. 617 -- Boston's area code -- with "Boston" above the numerals and "Strong" below it. They return to Fenway Park after this series, opening a 10-game homestand against Kansas City on Friday.
"Given what's taken place, this is fresh on everyone's minds," manager John Farrell said. "Even though we may not be in Boston right now, we carry this with us. We feel very much a part of the city and the community and everything that goes on there.
"We have not forgotten by any means."
With the tragic events still weighing on their minds, the Red Sox will try to win five straight for the first time since June 16-21.
Boston also attempts to win at Cleveland (5-7) for the sixth time in eight visits. Red Sox pitchers have compiled a 2.66 ERA and limited the Indians to a .198 average in the last seven games there, and another strong performance may be needed with Masterson (3-0, 0.41) on the mound.

Masterson, who won his first five starts of 2011 with a 2.18 ERA, has tossed a career-high 19 scoreless innings since the only run he's allowed this season in a 4-1 win at Toronto on April 2.
"It's going to end sometime, right?" Masterson said of his streak. "You have to go out and finish off innings, which is something I'm trying to do."
He was superb again Friday, tossing a five-hitter before Nick Swisher's walkoff single clinched a 1-0 win over the Chicago White Sox.
The right-hander, however, was a 12-1 loser to the Red Sox in his most recent start against them May 13. He gave up six runs and seven hits in six innings, after going 3-0 with a 1.95 ERA over his first four career meetings against the team he began his career with in 2008.
He'll have to contend with Mike Napoli, who is 7 for 21 with four doubles and seven RBIs over the past five games. He had a pair of doubles, and drove in two in the Red Sox's seven-run second inning Tuesday.
Napoli is hitting .371 with seven RBIs in his past 10 meetings with the Indians.
Alfredo Aceves (0-0, 6.75) is scheduled to make his second start in place of John Lackey, who is on the disabled list with a right biceps strain.
Aceves allowed two runs and six hits with three walks in five innings while not getting a decision in a 3-2 loss to Baltimore on Thursday. It was the right-hander's first start since June 21, 2011.
All six of Aceves' appearances versus the Indians have come in relief, and he's yielded two runs with eight strikeouts in 7 2/3 innings. He's tossed four scoreless innings in two games in Cleveland.

I'm digging inside the code right now, even it's well organized but it's not easy to understand all the techniques that you are using right away. I'm thniking of using the GUI used in the kit with my own game, however I have a couple of questions: 1- I can see you are using animation files to animate the GUI's can you please let me know how did you create these animations? did you use an exteral application? please explain? 2- with a quick look for the script folder I can see there is GUI folder under Scripts and also there is a GUI folder under Script/Common/GUI, so what is the differenace between both of these folders? and why did you split the GUI to be in 2 seperate folders? 3- My custom game that I have is using java script and I want to integrate your GUI code, so in this case I believe I need to move some of your GUI C# code to my StanderedAsset Floder, can you please let me know if this is correct? and what GUI files I need to move to my StanderedAsset folder to make the integration work?

WATCH: NFL's Andre Johnson Buys $17K in Toys for Kids
(NEWSER) – A little antidote to the usual headlines that NFL players make off the field: Houston Texan Andre Johnson dropped more than $17,000 at a Toys R Us for a dozen kids and their siblings in child protective services, reports Fox Sports. In fact, it's the seventh straight year he's paid for such a shopping spree. The total was a bit higher last year, notes Samer Kalaf at Deadspin, "but regardless of the total bill, it was still an awesome gesture by Johnson."

Hicks homers twice, plates seven runs
Mariners catcher continues to stay hot during the month of May
By Ashley Marshall / Special to MLB.com | May 24, 2012 10:54 PM ET
The fourth-round Draft pick out of the University of Virginia went 3-for-5 with two homers and a career-high seven RBIs in the Class A Advanced Mavericks' 18-5 rout of the Modesto Nuts.
"I felt great," Hicks said. "My first two at-bats didn't have the results I was looking for, but I came into the dugout, tried to relax and calm down and then go and look for good pitches to hit.
"This was the first time in my professional career that I had two home runs in one game. I did it maybe once in college, either my sophomore or junior year. As far as seven RBIs go, this is the first time."
Hicks' first multi-homer game helped continue his hot start to the season. He is batting .316 with 26 RBIs in May, he has homered six times in his last 11 contests and he has hit safely in all but three of his last 27 appearances.
On Thursday, Hicks grounded out in his first two at-bats in the second and third innings before slugging a grand slam off Modesto starter Lueris Gomez with one out in the fifth.
"It was a fastball away," Hicks said of his first longball. "The team was swinging the bat well and we were getting something rolling. The pitcher had kept me off balance, but I could see he was getting tired.
"I had worked a lot with our hitting coach on being aggressive down and away or down and in and getting the bat head there. I got a first-pitch fastball and I put a good swing on it."
Hicks then smacked a two-run shot to left field off Kurt Yacko in the seventh. He capped his night with an RBI double to left field off Craig Bennigson in the Mavericks' eight-run eighth. Unlike with the first homer, Hicks knew the second one was gone the second it left the bat.
"I felt like it was always going out, but it wasn't like I watched it," the 6-foot-2 right-hander said.
"He threw me a ball first pitch, then I chased a fastball up and fouled it back. He threw me another fastball on the outside corner that the umpire called a strike, so now I was just looking to put something in play and sneak a base hit up the middle. I saw it was a breaking ball out of his hand and it was a hanger."
Hicks fell one hit shy of matching a personal best, achieved in a 7-2 win over the Lake Elsinore Storm on May 1. His seven-RBI haul almost doubled his previous high-water mark of four as a member of the Class A Clinton LumberKings in a 12-1 rout of the Kane County Cougars last Aug. 22.
The catcher, serving as the team's designated hitter Thursday, was not the only Mavs hitter to feast on Nuts pitching.
Seattle's No. 16 prospect Jack Marder was 4-for-5 with a double, a walk and two runs scored out of the No. 2 spot, and second baseman Stefen Romero collected four hits, scored three times and plated two more in the cleanup role.
Each of the first eight batters recorded at least two hits and seven of the nine players scored multiple runs. Third baseman Mario Martinez -- batting eighth -- homered twice and plated five runs in the triumph.
"When you look at the stats sheet and see those batting average and home runs, it's impressive," Hicks said of his teammates. "It's pretty fun to watch. You definitely have a lot of opportunities to get RBIs.
"We have [Brad] Miller leading off and batting .300. Marder is batting over .300 in the two-hole. [Left fielder Julio] Morban and Romero are hitting over .350. Even further down the lineup [right fielder Mike] McGee is batting over .300 and [first base Mickey] Wiswall should be hitting about .360."
The Mavericks lead the California League in virtually every offensive category, including batting average (.310), homers (74), RBIs (306), extra-base hits (202) and runs scored (332). The team also has the second-fewest strikeouts, behind only Visalia.
"The ball flies well in High Desert and Lancaster, but we also go to parks like San Jose and Inland Empire which aren't great hitters' parks," said Hicks, a native of Sandy Hook, Va. "We still have the ability to put up really good numbers.
"Our park may give you a few extra feet on your home runs or a few extra points on your batting average, but you can put most of these guys in any other park around and they would still put up these numbers."
High Desert's offense proved more than enough for starting pitcher Roenis Elias (4-2) who allowed five runs -- two earned -- on five hits and three walks while striking out seven batters over six innings.
Modesto starter Gomez (1-2) yielded six runs on eight hits and three walks over 4 1/3 innings in the loss. He walked three batters and saw his ERA rise to 5.79. First baseman Jared Clark doubled home two runs in the losing cause.

Blackwell, a dark complected African-American, told the PRESS, "I was hired when they Wanted dark- skinned minorities because then their thinking was 'it looked better,' " he stated. "Today it appears they want the lighter colored ones. Their thinking now seems tobe, 'if they're lighter then the>7 think more like white people.' Blackwell continued, "When they hired Pat Amo [the city's former Indian liaison] they thought because she was light complected they had someone with that type of thinking. Instead, Pat Amo produced a plan for the city to work with the Indian community and city officials didn't like that. They then moved her position from the Mayor's office to the super vision of one of their department heads. She was eventually pressured out of her position." He also says the city has been using other Indian people to select "the right type of Indians for employment with the city." Blackwell says overthe years they've used a number of different people to do this. "The ones you always see in the news," he explained. Sources say before Valerie Sheehan was hired as the city's new Indian liaison she went to Clyde Bellecourt and ask him if she should apply for the position. Reports coming from the Mayor's office say Bellecourt then called the Mayor and pressured her to hire Sheehan. Mike Beaulieu and Leonard Thompson, senior Native American city firefighters, say when they were hired they knew it had a lot to do with their being light complected. "You should have seen the fire chief s face when we walked in," Beaulieu and Thompson told the PRESS. "We knew we were going to be hired." Blackwell says the black community is experiencing the same problems as the Indian community. "We have certain people they also use to recommend who gets hired." Ron Edwards, chairman of the firefighters steering committee, a group formed by a federal court order to monitor the city's hiring of minorities in the Fire Department, says he's tired of talking. "It's time for court action," he said. Edward's says leadership in the communities of color have been acting as if the problems of discrimination don't exist anymore. "Apparently, they have their jobs and that's all they're concerned with," he said. Blackwell says he's even been told that someday all the races will be mixed and there won't be anvmore discrimination. "Apparently, they want us to wait until that happens," he said. Calls to the mayor's office for comment weren't returned by press time.

Cass County District Court judge has set the date for February 14, 1995. In a complaint filed April 27, 1994 by Walker City attorney Harlan E. Smith, Ellis was charged with his third Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol (DWI) offense in ten years. According to the complaint the incident occurred at approximately 9:05 p.m. on April 8, 1994, in the City of Walker. Breath tests conducted on Ellis at the Cass County Sheriff's Office produced a reading of .15. According to Minnesota Law a reading of. 10 constitutes DWI. According to the complaint, Ellis's driving record indicates that he was convicted for DWI on or about May 6, 1985, and November 9, 1987. In addition, the complaint also states that three passenger's in Ellis' car were also taken into custody on open bottle charges. The complaint against Ellis, who is also a Leech Lake RTC District Representative, contains the following six charges: counts one through three for DWI for three separate violations of Minnesota statutes; count four for "third DWI in ten years:" count five for driving over the centerline;" and count six for "driving allowing open bottle." Maximum sentences for the six above charges which together art classified as a gross misdemeanor are as follows: counts one, two, three, five and six cany sentences of 90 days and/' or $700 fines each and count four which carries a sentence of one yeai imprisonment and/or a $3,000 fine. Walker City attorney Harlan E. Smith is prosecuting the case and Walker attorney Larry Kimball is representing Ellis. A weekly publication. Copyright, The Ojibwe IMews, 1995 Word from White Earth ByGaryBiair Rick Clark blaming the PRESS for his problems According to a primary source, federal indictments will be issued against the White Earth tribal council and nunierous collaborators by the end of next month. The charges will be for violations of major criminal laws. Recently, we've learned that White Earth tribal council member Rick Clark is feeling the pressure of that reality. The second term council member who ran unopposed last June is reported to be sniveling about the Native American Press and Ojibwe News coverage of corruption on his resenation. Apparently, Clark is especially unhappy with an article that described his involvement in the White Earth voting fraud scheme that was uncovered late last fall as part of the federal probe. Additional PRESS stories alleged that he has become one of that area's wealthiest residents since being elected. Interestingly, when one of his relatives recently confronted him about a house that this person said had been promised to him by resenation chairman Chip Wadena, Clark reportedly responded, "Why don't you ask Gary." Looking like he wanted to cry, Clark added, "Gary Blair is going to cause me to go to prison. I never did anything to him to make him write those things about me." Apparently, Clark doesn't remember his own campaign promises of wanting to get into office to help "expose" Chip Wadena, who he said was "corrupt." "Vote for me," he was telling his district's voters, "I want to get in there so I can find out what Chip is doing." But, it appears he got a little sidetracked and then gave up the idea all together. Now he's just as greedy as the rest of the resenation's council members. Although the PRESS' articles about White Earth have been revealing, it's apparent Clark doesn't realize that his financial affairs have been discussed openly in certain social settings. In fact, I learned quite a lot one day at a local golf course. It also appears he doesn't realize that federal authorities hav* already subpoenaed his local and federal bank records. Nevertheless, Clark still refuses to admit that Indian people are tired of getting ripped-off by their own so called leadership and would rather blame his poor image on media attacks. With indictments now expected on the White Earth and the Leech Lake resenations, the PRESS' phone lines have been buzzing for more than a year. Most of the callers were told to call (612) 348-1500, the phone number of the FBI in Minneapolis. So, if Clark is looking for someone to blame for his impending problems then he needs to confront the person he sees in the mirror each morning. He also needs to realize that White Earth residents have a right to know where their money is going.

Shortly before, Ruth was granted an honorary doctorate degree by the University of Minnesota - Duluth, for her many contributions to the American Indian community. Court rejects appeal of couple in Minnesota adoption case By Richard CarcIIi WASHINGTON (AP) _ The Supreme Court on Monday rejected the appeal of a white Minnesota couple who say they wrongly were denied the chance of adopting three Indian children, members ofthe Leech Lake Band of Chippewa. The justices, without comment, let stand a Minnesota Supreme Court decision that said allowing the adoption would violate a federal law aimed at preserving the Native American culture. Minnesota officials in 1991 terminated the parental rights ofthe three children's parents, a Chippewa mother and a non-Indian father, because of their abuse and neglect. The children, now ages 7, 9 and 10, have lived in more than a dozen homes. Eugene and Carol Campbell, who live near the Leech Lake Band resenation in Northern Minnesota, were foster parents to the children when in 1992 they sought to adopt them. Under a 1978 law, the Indian Child Welfare Act, courts are required to give Indian families a preference in adoptive and foster-care placements of Indian children. A congressional report on the law said it seeks to "protect the rights of Appeal cont'd on pg 3 More bands join treaty case Wisconsin Chippewa want share in Minnesota rights High court to hear reservation gaming case By Pat Doyle Staff Writer Minneapolis Star Tribune Reacting to a treaty rights victory last summer by the Mille Lacs Chippewa, six bands of Wisconsin Chippewa now assert privileges to fish and hunt without state regulation in east- central Minnesota. The Wisconsin Chippewa have askedU.S. Magistrate Judge Jonathon Lebedoff to allow them to participate in future court hearings on the allocation of fish and game among Chip pewa and non-Indians in the area. "It puts us in an awkward position," said Mille Lacs band attorney Jim Genia. The band won't oppose the Wisconsin Chippewa even thought their intenention could reduce the natural resources available to Mille Lacs members. If the six Wisconsin bands are allowed to intenene, their members probably would be entitled to share in the Mille Lacs band's allocation of game and fish in Minnesota. That could mean more Indians exercising treaty privileges to fish or hunt here. "I think having the other bands in the case will increase the number of resources taken by treaty han'esters," Genia said. The U.S. Justice Department supports the Wisconsin bands in their request. The state of Minnesota opposes it, saying the Wisconsin Chippewa should have joined the court case earlier instead of waiting until the Mille Lacs band won its case. Lebedoff said Tuesday that he will try to rule on the request soon. It is based on the fact that the Mille Lacs and Wisconsin Chippewa bands signed the same treaty in 1837 with the federal government. In the accord Treaty cont'd on pg 3 Washington, D.C. ~ The Supreme Court agreed Monday to resolve a high-stakes dispute over regulation of gambling on Indian resenations, a $6-billion-a-year industry. The justices said they will decide in a Florida case whether federal courts have authority to oversee negotiations between tribes and state officials about starting such gambling operations. Clinton administration lawyers contend that federal courts do have such authority. But federal appeals courts have split on that aspect ofthe 1988 Indian Gaming Regulatory Act. Congress had tried to broker a deal by overseeing two years of negotiations between several states and the tribes. But the Senate's Indian Affairs Committee gave up last year when it could not write legislative language acceptable to both sides. The law gave tribes new freedom to run big-money casinos, bingo halls and other gambling activities on their lands. Resenation gambling has become big business in more than 20 states since the gaming act was passed. The Supreme Court in 1987 ruled that states cannot ban gambling on Indian resenations within their borders, a decision that left Indian gam ing largely unregulated by the states. The gaming act requires federally recognized tribes to negotiate with the respective states before starting some types of on-resen'ation gambling. States are required to negotiate in good faith, and the law authorizes a tribe to sue a state in federal court if it fails to do so. That's what happened in Florida, where the Seminole tribe accused state officials of not negotiating in good faith. Florida officials contended that the Constitution's 11th Amendment shields them from such lawsuits.

Last Summer, the Lakota, Dakota, Nakota Nation Summit VI passed a resolution supporting application for recognition with UNPO, which was approved July 31, 1994. The organization assists member nations in addressing the international community. Member nations use the organization as a forum to meet with representatives of governments and international organizations. UNPO also assists in conflict resolution, the defense ofhuman rights and the protection of the environment. Mr. Looking Horse has been asked by the secretary general ofthe UNPO to lead a delegation representing non- tribal government community members, lineal descendants of treaty chiefs and spiritual leaders. The delegation will be in the Netherlands from Jan. 20 through 27 for the fourth general assembly of the Unrepresented Nations and Peoples Organizations. Mr. Looking Horse said UNPO organizers have honored him by asking him to lead the opening prayer. He has agreed to attend the general assembly because the allied nations must have their voices heard in the international commumty, he said. "We recognize other nations throughout mother earth.

The band owns one of the largest casinos in the nation, Jackpot Junction. Good thunder, his wife, 22-year-old son and his son's girlfriend were awakened about 3 a.m. Saturday by the shooting on the Lower Sioux Resenation. No one was injured, and no one has been arrested. "My son came up from the basement where he sleeps and said, 'Somebody's shooting at us,' " Goodthunder said Monday. "There was a succession of shots. One of the bullets came right through a wall and into the bathroom." Four bullets were found in rooms where Good thunder and his son sleep. Another bullet went through the garage door. Spent cartridges were found on Redwood County Rd. 2, which passes about 75 feet from the house. "Somebody apparently drove by and opened fire," said Redwood County Sheriff Jerry Luttman, who was looking for suspects. He said the size ofthe bullet holes and the damage caused by the bullets indicates that the gunman fired a high-powered rifle. "Thev're cowards, to wait until a person is asleep," Goodthunder said. "I've got a pretty good idea who they are." He said some tribal members are angry at him for urging police to investigate a gun battle on the reservation a month ago. "From what I hear, that's why they came looking for me. As far as I'm concerned, it's attempted murder." Goodthunder said Saturday's shooting did not have political overtones. The Lower Sioux community was divided in the early 1990s by controversy over how to distribute casino profits. But Goodthunder said the controversy ended after he and other tribal leaders agreed in 1993 to share the profits with more members. Reprinted with permission of the Minneapolis Star Tribune.

Two things made me start thinking that this year: first, we had a kid, and second, we moved again, for about the fifth time in eight years. This move was just a few blocks down the street, but has been the most stressful, in some ways.
Why are we doing this again? When will we just stop? Will this ever be our home? I sit here at the Wired Monk, I watch the snow fall, and I try to figure out a way to make a home.
These are twelve songs released in 2012 that seem to fit that rubric, more or less. The usual caveats: I don't pay that much attention to new releases, I mostly listen to records by white guys with beards, and I only have about five favorite bands, whose new songs always end up on these lists. (Perhaps they make me feel more at home?) [Read more…]

WEB EXCLUSIVE: Kaiser Chiefs
Listen to Kaiser Chiefs on iHeartRadio
UK indie rock band Kaiser Chiefs have are releasing a brand new album on April 1st, and it's inspired by a Tony Blair speech.
[Pre-order Education, Education, Education and War on iTunes]
Frontman Ricky Wilson says, while Education, Education, Education and War was recorded in Atlanta, the new album "reaffirms their Britishness." The record's title comes from a 2005 speech from then Prime Minster Tony Blair, where Blair called education "the key to the door of Britain's future success."
Wilson adds, "This album is more about the futility of everything. We don't really think a band from the north of England can change anything. None of us are Bono. But the album just became political, and we just went with it."
Watch the full interview with Kaiser Chiefs and see them perform below.

Brevard, N.C. - A strong charge in singles action nearly led Brevard College to victory, but in the end Carson-Newman was able to hold on for a 5-4 victory Wednesday afternoon in South Atlantic Conference play. The Tornados (4-2, 0-2 SAC) won four of six singles points.
Carson-Newman (1-0, 1-0 SAC) took all three doubles points. Giuseppe Schwarz and Rudolfo Schwarz beat Sam Johnston and Nate Lyles, 8-2 in the top flight, and Jack Harvie teamed with Chris Acker to down Konstantin Savelyev and Andrew Thompson, 8-6. The No. 3 match went to Trent Slagle and Adriano Kira, 8-4, over Heikki Riikonen and Cole Altizer.
Down 3-0, Brevard did not fold the tents, taking four points in the singles rounds. Savelyev fell to Giuseppe Schwarz, 6-7, 6-2, 6-4, in the No. 1 match (which was the clinching point for the Eagles), but Brevard got the second and third flight points as Riikonen beat Harvie, 6-4, 4-6, 6-1 and Thompson took down Slagle, 6-4, 3-6, 7-5. The No. 4 match belonged to Kira, 6-2, 6-4 over Lyles. Altizer beat Rudolfo Schwarz, 7-5, 6-4 and Shane Apps swept Acker, 6-0, 6-0 in the No. 6 match.
Brevard heads to Hilton Head, S.C. over spring break and plays Wheaton College on March 8. The Eagles play at North Greenville on Friday.

Sorry, I have no solution, but having the exact same problem. Anyone else have any advice?
After I downloaded Tor for backtrack 5 (I couldn't seem to find it, although proxychains was installed), I tried to run it with ./start-tor-browser
The response I get is..
Has anyone had any success with this? Is there any other way to use proxychains to tunnel my IP rather than using Tor?Code:Launching Tor Browser Bundle for Linux in /pentest/tunneling/tor-browser_en-us ./start-tor-browser: line 93: ./App/vidalia: cannot execute binary file Exited cleanly. Goodbye.
Sorry, I have no solution, but having the exact same problem. Anyone else have any advice?
Tor isn't installed as default on Blacktrack5.
http://www.binbert.com/blog/2011/06/...n-backtrack-5/ is a tutorial on how to get Tor running on BT5.
However, I've had no luck with Firefox 4.1. The current TorButton stable isn't compatible and the Alpha installs but doesn't appear to do anything. Everything else seems fine.
If you guys are using the torbrowser bundle for linux then I can answer this for you. It seems that when I downloaded and unzipped the bundle for some reason mine said the owner of the files and folders was user 2011 and group was 2011 instead of root and group root which is who you are running as. So if you run a chown command with recursive on the unzipped directory this will change ownership and allow the package to work without errors.
If your terminal is in the folder you downloaded the bundle to then this would be the command
chown -R root:root ./tor-browser_en-US
If you downloaded a different language then your folder name may be different.
I tested it and mine works as expected.
Yep still having the same problem even after changing the owner back to root. I did see the same behavior in terms of assigning it to the user 2011. but I still get the same error.
Launching Tor Browser Bundle for Linux in /root/Desktop/tor-browser_en-US
./start-tor-browser: line 93: ./App/vidalia: cannot execute binary file
OP, have you had any luck?
Hi guys,
I am still having this same problem. I've tried in multiple clean installs, and even switched from the iso to the vmware image just to make sure, but the behavior is always the same...Line 93 vidalia can't execute binary, exiting cleanly, goodbye. I've tried changing the permissions as the guy above recommended, but it had no effect.
Any ideas at all?
Tor is a pretty basic thing to get up and running on every other OS I've tried, and will be mandatory for doing much recon.
I just like to use Tor, proxychains, and foxyproxy. Working fine for me in BT5.
So I have begun using BT5 quite recently, tbh I find it interesting like no other operating system I've tried using before but still know very little about it or linux in general.
You can't beat the ubuntu software center for installing stuff thou if your having problems. If you find your having difficulty installing TOR I would recommend installing by first downloanding and installing the software center with the command
apt-get install sofware-center
then just search running the software center and looking for Tork and run it from the internet application option. If your using Tor thou I would recommend reading
before you begin even considering surfing the web casually using tor thou dude. I'd also consider reading these pages a well, if your looking to browse without leaving any trace just using tor doesn't cut it thou from what i hear if you are really serious. Also its not recommended for use with torrents so I wouldn't use it with transmission (I don't really get why but the reasons not to seem complex enough for me not to think differently without reading up some more).
Hope that helps
There is no need for tor or tor browser on a penetration testing distro. Case closed. Problem solved.
To be successful here you should read all of the following.
If you are new to Back|Track

Failure to do so will probably get your threads deleted or worse.

Canada 11 - Latvia 0
Qualifier Round
RIGA, Latvia - Canada got goals from 10 players, including nine on the power-play, in an 11-0 win over Latvia on Thursday for Canada's fourth straight win at the World Hockey Championship.
The game featured a total of 23 penalties and the teams played 5-on-5 for about 20 minutes over the course of the 60-minute game. The game was marred by angry fans littering the ice and at one point a Latvian player issued a plea over the public address system for peace.
Jason Williams had a goal and three assists. Kyle Calder added two goals while Sidney Crosby, Brad Boyes, Patrice Bergeron, Brendan Shanahan, Jeff Carter, Matt Pettinger, Mike Richards and Scott Hartnell also scored.
Goalie Marc Denis made 26 saves for the shutout in his second start of the tournament.
Canada now has six points atop the Group E standings and Canada's nest opponent is the Czech Republic on Sunday and they play Finland on Monday.
The Latvians fans are renowned for the passion they bring to the game and the greeted their heroes with chants of "Latvia, Latvia." The Riga Arena was so loud that Canadian family members were given earplugs by team officials.
The game was decided in the first period when Canada scored four goals. And it was after Bergeron made it 4-0 at 17:43 that things deteriorated. The fans, upset by the officiating of referee Rick Looker of the United States, littered the ice with everything from coins to shoes and even a cellphone.
The final score was Canada's largest win over Latvia since a 14-0 victory at the1935 world championship .
Preview: Players and fans can say what they want about noisy NHL arenas but they are nothing compared to the deafening levels the Canadians can expect when they play the host nation in the opening game of the qualifying round. Latvia may not be a world hockey power but the Lavtians fans are golem deal winners when it comes to cranking up the decibel meter.
The game is being played in the shiny new Arena Riga, where more than 10,000 fans will cheer on the home team. "It's going to be a test for our younger players,' Team Canada captain Brendan Shanahan said after the 2-1 win over the United States. 'It's going to be an environment that they've never seen before."

Cal notes: Russell returning to form
Ports shortstop making gains after move to No. 2 in order
By George Alfano / Special to MLB.com | June 12, 2013 6:00 AM ET
Barry Larkin opened the eyes of Stockton Ports' shortstop Addison Russell at a young age.
Larkin, who played 19 seasons with the Cincinnati Reds and was elected to the Hall of Fame in 2010, came to a baseball clinic in Russell's hometown of Pensacola, Fla.
"I remember he signed every autograph," said Russell, MLB.com's top-ranked A's prospect and No. 44 overall. "It made me think I could do this -- play baseball as a career."
The A's drafted Russell 11th overall in 2012, and he hit .369 in 2012 across three levels that season, finishing second among Oakland Minor Leaguers with nine triples despite only playing 55 games.
Things didn't start so well this season, however, as he hit .224 in April and .208 in May and struck out 57 times in 178 at-bats during the first two months. But Russell has improved his offense in June, hitting .333 over the last nine games and fanning only four times in 36 at-bats.
"Pitchers can spot up in this league -- they can pitch to their spots," Russell said. "I learned to be more patient and not swing at bad pitches."
Stockton manager Webster Garrison started the season with Addison leading off, because "we wanted to get him more at-bats," he explained.
Having Russell lead off also appeared logical because he has been successful on 23 of 26 stolen base attempts as a pro. After his slow start, Garrison moved Russell to the No. 2 spot, believing leadoff may have taken an edge off his aggressiveness.
"He's the youngest player in the league, but he shows a lot of maturity for his age," Garrison said of the 19-year-old. "He is humble and wants to learn. He fits in well with his teammates."
Garrison added that Russell is an outstanding defensive shortstop, showing a strong arms and good hands. He said he has good range on grounders and can range well into the outfield to catch fly balls.
Though Russell's .234 batting average and 61 strikeouts seem unimpressive, he is batting .311 with runners on base, and 15 of his 23 hits in those situations are for extra bases.
The A's gave Russell a $2.625 million signing bonus, and he would've attended Auburn had he not signed.
"Being drafted in the first round is an opportunity you can't pass up," said Russell. "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. My family and friends supported my decision."
In brief
Top closers: Jake Barrett of Visalia and Scott Oberg of Modesto each have 14 saves to lead the California League. Barrett, ranked by MLB.com as the No. 16 prospect in the Arizona Diamondbacks' organization, has a 1.17 ERA and 29 strikeouts in 23 innings. Oberg had 13 saves last year for Grand Junction in the rookie-level Pioneer League.
Stingy 66ers: Pitching has lifted Inland Empire back into the race for the South Division first-half championship. On Monday, Dan Reynolds allowed two hits in eight innings in a 3-0 shutout over Visalia. It was Inland Empire's second consecutive shutout. In a 3-0 victory over High Desert on Sunday, Kramer Sneed allowed two hits over six innings, and three pitchers followed to complete the shutout. Inland Empire had a 12-1 victory over High Desert on Saturday as Orangel Arenas allowed three hits over six shutout innings.
Moving up: The Los Angeles Dodgers have promoted pitcher Duke von Schamann, who had a 7-2 record for the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes, to the Chattanooga Lookouts of the Southern League. Pedro Guerrero of Inland Empire was also promoted to Chattanooga. The San Diego Padres have advanced second baseman Cory Spangenberg to the San Antonio Missions of the Texas League. Spangenberg played in Lake Elsinore in 2012 and 2013, although he was hurt during the second half of 2012. He's the No. 9 Padres prospect.
Well-traveled: The California League is the ninth league in which Marquez Smith has played. Selected by the Chicago Cubs in the eighth round of the 2007 Draft, he is hitting .310 with eight homers in 45 games for the Bakersfield Blaze. Smith reached Triple-A in 2010 with the Iowa Cubs and played last year in the Mexican League.

text: Lindsay Lohan has played the miscarriage card again. This time she used it in a court filing to set aside a default that had been entered against her in her leggings lawsuit. Lindsay's company 6126 was sued and Lindsay herself was served around Christmas. She never filed any paperwork responding to the lawsuit and the company suing her entered a default. Lindsay's attorneys then set aside the default because Lindsay says she was unable to confer with her attorneys while in rehab or after she got out because she was dealing with her sobriety and filming a reality show. Oh, and she also had a miscarriage. The judge decided to give her another chance to respond to the lawsuit and set aside the default. Defaults are set aside all the time and there is not much of a burden that Lindsay would have to overcome to achieve a win so it is kind of surprising that she played the miscarriage card. So many sources have said that she was lying about it to get ratings and another season and it seems unnecessary to bring it up. All she has done now is left herself open to questions about it when she is deposed and she is going to have to provide names and dates and if she can't, then she might be charged with a crime. She signed that motion under penalty of perjury. That being said, chances are slim that even if she did lie anything would happen to her criminally but it would show another circumstance where she lied just to lie when it wasn't needed.

I purchased several domains including localcriminaldefense.co, duiattorneyaction.com, entirepersonalinjury.com, theduidwiattorneys.com, and entirefilingbankruptcy.com 1-2 years ago.
I am ready to develop a couple of these sites, but now with the new EMD update, I am wondering if it would be worth it to work on these domains or should I just give them up and start fresh with something new?
Pandas and other animals aside, the jury is out on this - and probably will always be out. What I tell people is to skip the SEOish antics, and build it. Build it, and they will come: surfers and robots. A content-rich site with lots of back links and engaging content that is updated on a regular basis will do well.
Hi Dan, thanks for your reply....this was also my thought (forget about SEO / trying to appease Google and just build it and provide good content) I just wanted to hear some other peoples' input. Cheers
Google mainly hit the thin content / weak EMDs. If you develop thick, original and most importantly, useful content then you'll have no problem. I do a simple 'usefulness' test on any site I develop - is it interesting for a human to read? Does it answer a question or offer as solution to a problem they may have?
If the answer is yes, then good. If no, then continue developing.
I have a number of EMDs that I develop as a hobby (hosting is full time) and those that were good, thick-content ones were the ones that did well. An example is www.ultravioletplayer.tv - lots of articles that answer real questions on UltraViolet.
If you are create EMD site and you are posting just one or few articles then it is think content and your site won't be given higher ranking, your site should look good in terms of content, try to have at least 30 pages with fresh and quality content, then it is good with EMD as well.
Isn't that just what I posted above?
Just Google any phrase and you'll see that the top results almost always have a search query in their domain name. "Almost Always" is very important though, as nothing can guarantee you a top ranking, no matter what they say. So I guess the best way would be to have all title and description meta tags relevant to your domain name. Try Googling "tasty sandwich recipes" for example -you'll get domain name with these words, even though it has "0" links! Why? Because it has "sandwich" in each of the title tags. That's what you call SEO.
In total agreement here. Don't look at the value of the domains from an SEO perspective. Are they brandable? Some of them seem to be (though a bit long). If you that build direct traffic from social media and quality sources, the SERP traffic should follow - but only if you're building true value on those domains.
As per my experience, website/blog with EMD keyword still worth to created as long as the site full with content. Content is the key to pawn Panda, Penguin and EMD updates. For me, there's need to worry about the up coming updates if you have high quality content.
I tried purchasing a few domains with keyword rich terms. Does not seem to help much at present. I think everyone is right. Focus on content and you will eventually move up fast.

Bryant Literary Review
Since our first issue in 2000, we have actively sought to expand our audience. We expect readers of the Bryant Literary Review to be sophisticated, educated, and familiar with the conventions of contemporary literature. We see our purpose to be the cultivation of an active and growing connection between our community and the larger literary culture. Our production values are of the highest caliber, and our roster of published authors includes major award and fellowship winners. The BLR provides a respected venue for creative writing of every kind from around the world. Our only standard is quality.
Bryant Literary Review is an international magazine of poetry and fiction published annually in May. For more information, contact firstname.lastname@example.com. To submit work, please review the submission guidelines.
Editors Note
IT all begins with a flicker of inspiration. As individuals, we perceive objects, people, and scenes differently; each person recognizing beauty and value in objects for an array of qualities. We form ideas inspired by those perceptions. Those of you who are familiar with the creative process might be acquainted with the tension that develops with the formation of an idea. We see or hear or feel and know we must create. Until we express that idea, we carry this tension-this need to release our thoughts-that is only relieved bit by bit as words fill a page, or brushstrokes texturize a canvas.
Editors Note
Thank you for picking up this edition of the Bryant Literary Review. Each year we receive admissions from across the world, but this issue is special for two reasons: this is our 15th anniversary edition, and it includes work from the current and past two poets laureate of Rhode Island – Rick Benjamin, Lisa Starr, and Tom Chandler.
Fifteen years is an extraordinary run for a literary journal, and the fact that the BLR is still going strong is a real credit to our staff and the support we receive from Bryant University. We are happy to be a part of yet another year of promoting creativity and literary excellence.
Editors Note
What kind of life is one without vivid illustration? How boring it must be to sit in a cubicle all day, do as you're told, and only have an hour-long lunch break? It took me long to realize that I crave more and have more to offer. Sometimes we find ourselves stuck in the ways of what we've been taught; it's up to us to recognize our own potential. When I was younger, I never liked to read; therefore, I never liked to write. Reading was tedious and boring; writing was painful and structured - much has changed in ten years. I can now proudly say that writing has dug its way into my mind and planted a seed that refuses to die.
Even in the midst of our busy lives, we must take a step "out of the box" and into something we may not necessarily be familiar with. Fortunately, I found a passion for poetry early on, but I've met many who underestimated it at first and have come to find its value irresistible...
Editor's Note
When I first learned about the Bryant Literary Review, I wondered why our University would publish a literary magazine. After all, isn't the only point of college to get a good steady job, and make a lot of money? What use do poems and short stories have in the real world? You can't put them on your resume. They don't ad value to your 401k. So why bother with them?
Having now worked on the poetry editing staff for the BLR for 2 years, I think the best answer to such questions is that literature has value which can't be measured. Reading and writing poems or stories may seem pointless to someone who assumes they knowtheir path in life, but to those people I say that even the most successful individuals need...
Editor's Note
Thank you for taking the opportunity to open this issue of the Bryant Literary Review.. This collection is a testament to the power that writing and the liberal arts can have on the wholeness of an individual. Each year the BLR receives thousands of submissions from dozens of countries and all across America. This poses a great challenge to the editorial staff, since we can only publish a small percentage of what we are sent. I am confident that you will enjoy reading each piece included in this year's issue.

Our nation and the world as we know it are changing. We live in a time when jobs are diminishing while the pursuit of wealth remains out of control. Our days are darkened by the perils of global warming and the threat of terrorism, alive and lingering in the minds of every citizen.
But despite these challenges and hardships, the world pushes on. There is still a light that shines through in the importance of creativity and the imagination. We see this in the thousands of submissions we receive each year to the Bryant Literary Review...
Editor's Note
A literary journal mimics an infant in the Dark Ages in that it has a short life expectancy and is likely poor. In spite of this standard, many periodicals are fortunate enough to grow up. With this in mind, the Bryant Literary Review celebrates its tenth anniversary.
In ten years, we have published many poems and stories, but perhaps the most notable submissions were those not published We have received poems on graph paper and post cards, as well as a laminated, pocket-sized poem. Other notables include a "bonus poem" included as part of a cover letter which explained the absence of a self addressed stamped envelope, pictures of a squirrel...
Editor's Note
The rules of an affluent modern society often dictate the daily affairs of individuals. Regularly, one is required to work from dawn to dusk, returning home only to sleep for the next day's work. Each day, millions follow this routine in a systematic fashion, going through the motions of their everyday lives, while forgetting to live them. In the back of their minds dwell thoughts of the following day's work, questions of politics, finance and, of course, the future. There is often no time to enjoy any aspect of life the way it was intended to be enjoyed. Romantic ideas of boating on vacation or traveling the world are out of the question.
Perhaps it is the dreary undertones of the world today, accompanied by long work hours and tension in the home, that stifle the innate creativity that exists within us...
Editor's Note
English writer Graham Greene claimed, "Writing is a form of therapy. Sometimes I wonder how all those who do not write, compose or paint can manage to escape the madness, the melancholia, the panic fear which is inherent in the human situation." When life is fragile, complicated, and ever-changing, literature provides that means of escape. It also provides hope—the hope that when society seems to value activities that dull the mind, there remain those intellectual and inspiring visionaries who provide friction on the slippery slope.
Working as student editor of the Bryant Literary Review has given me the opportunity to explore the creativity of others. As Cyril Connolly said, "While thought exists, words are alive and literature becomes an escape, not from, but into living." We respond to creativity...

Going to be visiting Florida this winter. What beaches would you recomend checking out for some surf?

Going to be visiting Florida this winter. What beaches would you recomend checking out for some surf?
flying into Orlando and I think staying somewhere in that general area. I'm willing to make a drive if needed!
Thanks ZaG. Been there before, can imagine how mackin it might be
From Orlando head east on the Expressway straight to Cocoa, or stay East on I-4 and find Ponce Inlet / New Smyrna Beach Inlet, either one usually has a wave. on NE swells, Cocoa and Smyrna will be working, on SE you'll score at Ponce. Hope that helps
Yes, head east. Do not, I repeat do not head west.
Anywhere from ft pierce/sebastian north to Jacksonville will be your most likely area of scoring some swell north of the bahamas shadow. Check the forecast 4 or 5 days out from your flight though, south florida and/or the gulf can get good too, it just doesn't happen quite as often.
don't come to Florida
surf guru has florida cams you can check out.
Cocoa Beach, Sebastian Inlet, Fort Pierce Inlet, all on east coast central Florida area.

Release Notes: This release fixes a number of minor bugs, such as ones related to terminal handling, in the dot.mkshrc file, the testsuite runner, and the manual page. This release also adds documentation, some portability, and updates the internal character width code to Unicode 6.3.0.
Release Notes: R47 is a must-have bugfix update which corrects most issues popping up with R45/R46 as well as some much older bugs. It is now even more aligned with POSIX behavior, removes the need for cttyhack on Linux, and introduces the new "set ±o inherit-xtrace", with which the behaviour of "set -x" upon entering a function can be controlled. Character widths are now calculated per the Unicode 6.2.0 standard.
Release Notes: This release fixes a nasty regression introduced in R40e. The persistent history code can now use fcntl when flock is not usable, making it available on more systems for those who really want/need to use it. Both the shell and the regression testsuite have reduced system dependencies (str{,n}case{cmp,str}, POSIX.pm, env, id, printf). The Emacs commandline editing code checks the goto position better against buffer bounds. New targets are available: BeOS, Dell Unix (only with cc, not with gcc), LynxOS, NeXTstep, SCO OpenServer, and SCO UnixWare (including USL C compiler).
Release Notes: This must-have update collects bugfixes from three months, including better standards compliance (the IFS test suite now passes), several tab completion-related bugs (UTF-8, backslash-escaped filenames), fixes for the worst problems with persistent history code (use of it is still discouraged), a bugfix for using time in $(…), and better UTF-8 and $COLUMNS/$LINES handling. The sleep builtin is no longer interrupted by SIGWINCH. Support for SkyOS, both Minix 3, QNX, Android, BSD/OS, Cygwin, Interix, and non-GCC has improved. Deprecated features now issue a warning. Most importantly, I/O redirecting an "if" block works again (BZ#496791).
Release Notes: This release fixes several small bugs in sh compatibility, UTF-8 handling, Emacs mode, and the build system. It includes some additions to the man page as well as portability fixes for Openstep, Interix, and Hurd and a new port to MSYS.
Release Notes: This release fixes several obscure ways the shell could crash the tty, freeze, or refuse to start. The tab completion user experience was improved to allow ^Cing out of cat. The setenv function was added to the default ~/.mkshrc file. The documentation better explains that echo is not portable and which startup files are read. Manpage legibility was improved. The new "global" special built-in command was added, doing the same as "typeset" ("local") except making every touched parameter local to the function even if it existed before. Compiler/linker errors are caught earlier. Some compiler warnings were fixed.
Release Notes: cat and sleep were added as builtins. The Android, FreeMiNT, and Haiku platforms are now supported. Many interactive improvements were made. The behavior was aligned with POSIX/SUSv4 (parameter expansions, etc). Link time optimization and LLVM Dragonegg are supported. Overly complicated code was replaced with simpler, smaller, faster, and more correct code. Unicode support was synchronized with version 6.0.0 of the standard. A lot of bash/ksh93/zsh extensions are supported: $"…", ${PIPESTATUS[*]}, case ;& and ;|, x+=y, x+=(y z), etc. A new recursive parser fixes command substitution. Functions inherit "set -x". The "read" builtin can read (up to) n bytes into an array of words or char, with a timeout. "Here document" handling was improved.
Release Notes: This release fixes a possible segmentation fault in the built-in "bind" command in interactive mode. The parsing and evaluation of "${parameter op word}" is now correct. The code, documentation, and test suite were cleaned up, and several changes were made in the build system, fixing (among other problems) the building of the manpage and compilation on AIX.
Release Notes: The LOCPATH environment variable is now recognized by the regression test suite (for unprivileged builds), the file descriptor use is now more conservative on Minix 3, enabling it to bootstrap itself there, a "wontfix" bug in ACK (on Minix 3) has been worked around, enabling /usr/bin/cc to be used for compilation, structure alignment and padding has changed, and SIGBUS and the occasional segmentation faults on some architectures (IA64, possibly S/390, maybe more) have been fixed.
Release Notes: This release has a bugfix for emacs mode bind key macros. It is the first to work on Minix 3 (with GCC only, due to ACK bugs, though).

Text of a letter from a kid from Eromanga to Mum and Dad. (For Those of you not in the know, Eromanga is a small town, west of Quilpie in the far south west of Queensland )
Dear Mum & Dad,
I am well. Hope youse are too. Tell me big brothers Doug and Phil that the Army is better than workin' on the station - tell them to get in bloody quick smart before the jobs are all gone! I wuz a bit slow in settling down at first, because ya don't hafta get outta bed until 6am. But I like sleeping in now, cuz all ya gotta do before brekky is make ya bed and shine ya boots and clean ya uniform. No bloody horses to get in, no calves to feed, no troughs to clean - nothin'!! Ya haz gotta shower though, but its not so bad, coz there's lotsa hot water and even a light to see what ya doing!
At brekky ya get cereal, fruit and eggs but there's no kangaroo steaks or goanna stew like wot Mum makes. You don't get fed again until noon and by that time all the city boys are buggered because we've been on a 'route march' - geez its only just like walking to the windmill in the bullock paddock!!
This one will kill me brothers Doug and Phil with laughter. I keep getting medals for shootin' - dunno why. The bullseye is as big as a bloody dingos arse and it don't move and it's not firing back at ya like the Johnsons did when our big scrubber bull got into their prize cows before the Ekka last year! All ya gotta do is make yourself comfortable and hit the target - it's a piece of piss!! You don't even load your own cartridges, they comes in little boxes, and ya don't have to steady yourself against the rollbar of the roo shooting truck when you reload!
Sometimes ya gotta wrestle with the city boys and I gotta be real careful coz they break easy - it's not like fighting with Doug and Phil and Jack and Boori and Steve and Muzza all at once like we do at home after the muster.
Turns out I'm not a bad boxer either and it looks like I'm the best the platoon's got, and I've only been beaten by this one bloke from the Engineers - he's 6 foot 5 and 15 stone and three pick handles across the shoulders and as ya know I'm only 5 foot 7 and eight stone wringin' wet, but I fought him till the other blokes carried me off to the boozer.
I can't complain about the Army - tell the boys to get in quick before word gets around how bloody good it is.
Your loving daughter,
Sheila xx
I've learned that pleasing everyone is impossible, but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.
A little known fact !
This is the way it is mate !

Unless you are my brother -in -law , who was with the 1st Cavalry Division back in '68 during the Vietnam war and was there for the relief of the Marines at Khe Sanh !
He was a " Skytrooper " , a chopper riding grunt !
Where would the Corps be without those guys , the famous " Air Cav " of the US Army ?

It's exactly what you think it is: lots of old-timey pictures of men with impressive mustaches. The photos come from the collections of the University of Kentucky Archives.
This site could be a great resource for putting a date range on your forefather's facial hair, but unfortunately, the dates of the photos aren't included in the daily blog posts. They are, however, categorized with humorous descriptions, like "Business Mustache," "Faceshelf," "Perfect Specimens" and "Battle Mustache."
Click here to visit the Mustaches of the Nineteenth Century blog:
The genealogy wiki WeRelate and the University of Southern Florida Africana Heritage Project (USAF) are among those behind the project. Researchers will be able to add images and records to the database, too.
According to the press release, "Every record readers add to the database will not only be preserved, but will be available to anyone for free, now and in years to come."
Look for a beta release early next spring. You can help get things off the ground by volunteering to add or index records and manage data. Contact USAF's Toni Carrier or Dallan Quass of WeRelate.
Members can customize their home pages by picking a layout and adding a photograph and caption, along with information about their research interests. Uploaded photos go into a gallery, which can be public, private or available to family and friends. Users also can make announcements public or private.
Those services are free. For its records, FamilyRelatives offers subscription ($75 per year) and pay-per-view options.
You can use the new app, called We're Related (no relation to WeRelate), to search your Facebook friends for your relatives. If those relatives also use We're Related, it'll suggest who among their Facebook friends might be related to you. We're Related also lets you upload your GEDCOM to your facebook profile. You can get a little more info on the application and instructions for adding We're Related to your Facebook profile on the World Vital Records blog. It's the 153rd most popular application on Facebook out of more than 5,000—not too shabby.
• Your experience as an Ancestry.com subscriber won't change as a direct result of the sale, Sullivan states, "Other than the very rapid pace of innovation we've built into our cycle in the past year, and we hope to maintain that, even to accelerate it." That innovation includes the Ancestry Press and DNA Ancestry services, international sites such as the Swedish Ancestry.se, and a Web 2.0 platform for MyFamily.com.
"The firm that's buying our company is buying our vision. They like what we're doing and they want us to keep doing that," Sullivan says.
• Sullivan said RootsWeb—the free, grassroots site TGN (then MyFamily.com) purchased in 2000—"is absolutely not going away. We will never charge for what's on RootsWeb. We're proud to be supporters of RootsWeb." He adds there's only about a 20 percent overlap between RootsWeb users and Ancestry.com users, a number his company would like to increase.
• Spectrum Equity's investment in TGN likely won't change anything at Genealogy.com (anyone remember that site?), which TGN purchased in 2003 and allowed to languish. "We continue to support Genealogy.com, but we did make a decision that in a world of limited resources and limited hours in the day, that the best thing we could do was focus our resources as completely as we could on Ancestry.com."
• TGN is focused on incorporating new technology, such as wireless photo uploads, into its services, and on globalizing genealogy research. "We just sent someone to China to open an office there and build a Web site for people in China," Sullivan says.
• A few other upcoming changes to Ancestry.com include a "pretty major" overhaul of the search interface, improved tree-building experience, and of course, more digitized records.
• Sullivan wouldn't say whether TGN would go public, just that the company's future holds many possibilities and his staff is taking things one step at a time.

If my obituary merits a second paragraph, I should like it to say, "Shushed director of the FBI."
Fineman enumerates "15 Reasons Why American Politics Has Become An Apocalyptic Mess," each summarized in just one paragraph.
My experience is that when you have an idea, for a paragraph say, the first form of words is always the best.
If this is what he did to a paragraph in a forgettable speech, what pray tell did he do to something that really mattered?
The Daily Beast has removed the paragraph and attributed the phrase, and regrets the error.
This paragraph was added later by Aubrey, perhaps from information supplied by E. Phillips.
Finally, in the fifth paragraph, the White Terrapin of Whl is invoked.
Jerry wrote his story which was sent paragraph by paragraph to the composing room.
But I45 will oppose it to the end if that paragraph is permitted to remain a part of it.
I send you the paragraph and also the paragraphs from the Speech of 1834, which seem still more to the purpose.
late 15c., from Middle French paragraphe "division of text" (13c., Old French paragrafe), from Medieval Latin paragraphus "sign for start of a new section of discourse" (the sign looked something like a stylized letter -P-), from Greek paragraphos "short stroke in the margin marking a break in sense," also "a passage so marked," literally "anything written beside," from paragraphein "write by the side," from para- "beside" (see para- (1)) + graphein "to write" (see -graphy).
A basic unit of prose. It is usually composed of several sentences that together develop one central idea. The main sentence in a paragraph is called the topic sentence.

when you initially boot up the CD it should so you the version above the login prompt.
I have backtrack 5 running on a bootable thumbdrive.
Once loaded, from either the command line or GUI interface (after running startx) is there a command I can run that will tell me what version of backtrack 5 I am running.
I actually have two thumbdrives. 1 running Backtrack 5 (maybe RC1) and the other thumb drive is running RC2. They got mixed up and I wanted to find out how to figure our which is which.
Thank you for the help,
when you initially boot up the CD it should so you the version above the login prompt.
Both versions say the same thing above the login prompt. There has to be another way to get the correct version information.
Hi guys, I just was curious about the USB boot, Is there any way to save updates without having to keep loading them once rebooted
Check the "Install BackTrack Persistent to USB" guide.

Every child deserves a chance at a bright future that holds the hope of a stable, nurturing family. Children taken away from their parents due to neglect and abuse often lose that hope and are lost in a sea of social workers, attorneys, therapists, and caregivers. A Guardian ad Litem volunteer is a lifeline for them, someone whose attention is focused on that child and what is in their best interest.
