Feminism | Posted by Chloe H on 07/29/2013
Model Citizen
I would like to preface this essay by saying that I am a feminist (I have written four other articles for the FBomb), I am sixteen, and I have been model with Ford Models for two years. My opinions are based on experiences I have personally had in the fashion industry.
Mankind has always been infatuated with beauty and art has been one way humans create beauty since the beginning of history — what pleases the eye, touches the soul after all. To me, fashion is the most intimate form of art because it becomes a part of our lives in a way other art doesn't: we experience life in clothes. People strive to see and create beauty in their lives and fashion is one …

Perhaps that's why Starborough™ Sauvignon Blanc stands out—the way in which it evokes the subtle flavor of New Zealand's natural beauty. It's a sophisticated taste that's easy to like. View all Starborough Wines
About Marlborough(mahrl-bore-oh)
Sitting pretty on the northern tip of New Zealand's south island, Marlborough has become synonymous with New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. As well it should be – Marlborough is the primary region for those delicious, citrusy, summer-lovin' wines with vibrant acidity and pungent, grassy, grapefruit flavors. Sauvignon Blanc is the main grape here; Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Riesling are also made.

Reading Level: Grades 7+
Love, aka deleria is the reason for all problems in the world, which is why upon every citizen's eighteenth birthday, a cure is administered, severing the receiver from potential infection. Boys and girls under the age of eighteen, of course, are separated, lest interaction between two uncureds causes an infection. 17 year-old Lena Haloway, like all other teens her age, can't wait to get the vaccine and be cured of the deleria - she hopes that becoming cured will finally sever her from the stigma of her uncured mother's suicide. Just a few months before her scheduled cure, Lena meets Alex, somewhat by accident, and becomes infected. Headstrong and in love, Lena begins to question the cure, as well as everything her society stands for and has taught her; yet her cure date looms ever-closer, promising to destroy herself and Alex.

Brevard, N.C. - The Brevard College Baseball and Softball teams supported the BC Student-Athlete Advisory Committee initiatives in participating in Buddy Readings with several schools located throughout Transylvania County.
"I think having Brevard College athletes act as reading buddies with elementary school kids is awesome. It is positive on both ends of the spectrum," commented Meredith Guice, teacher at Brevard Elementary. "It is very important for children to have positive role models and I believe this program does just that. It allows students to see at an early age how important getting an education is and if they are involved in athletics that there are endless possibilities." Guice went on to say, "I believe it is positive for college students because they probably had someone in their life that was influential in their education or athletics and with this program they have the opportunity to give back."
The Tornados went to both Pisgah Forest Elementary School and Brevard Elementary School throughout the months of November and the early part of December as the teams interacted with the students at both institutions, helping with homework, reading to the students and taking part in some of the day-to-day activities.
"It was definitely a great experience to be involved in the community with the Buddy Readings," said BC junior softball player and Exercise Science major Becca Curlee. "Helping the kids and seeing them read so well was inspiring. It really brought be back to the playground days. It was awesome to reminisce back to where it all started, now that we're undergrad students."
With the BC baseball and softball teams starting their seasons and taking to the field when they come back in the spring, several other BC athletic teams will pick up where they left off as the Tornados continue to look to build relationships with members of the Brevard community and step in and stand out in all phases of their collegiate experiences.
BC softball player and Education major Brittany Jones summed up the experience as, "It showed me that teaching is the career I want to take. I want to help children learn through things and help them when they are struggling."

mid-14c., "living together, having dealings with others," also "manner of conducting oneself in the world;" from O.Fr. conversation, from L. conversationem (nom. conversatio) "act of living with," from conversat-, pp. stem of conversari "to live with, keep company with," lit. "turn about with," from L. com- "with" (see com-) + vertare, frequentative of vertere (see versus). Specific sense of "talk" is 1570s. Used as a synonym for "sexual intercourse" from at least 1511, hence criminal conversation, legal term for adultery from late 18c. Related: Conversationalist; conversationist.
My question is "how did it come to mean 'talk' in the 1570s?"

As 2011 draws to close, ComicsAlliance has assembled its annual list of the best comics and graphic novels of the year with the help of our editors, writers, and readers. Like any list, it is naturally subjective, but we've packed it chock full of eleven comics that have awed us, excited us, and entertained us over the last 12 months and books that we're passionate about recommending. Read about #11-9, #8-7, #6-5, and now #4-3 in our Top 11 Comics of 2011.


text: I'd be interested to know if anyone spoke to anyone who doesn't follow MMA who watched it to see what their thoughts on the whole production aspect and presenters etc. Think most of us are clouded because we compare it to other shows we have seen and so on. I am sure with time it will get better anyway hopefully for the hardcore as well as the new fans, its always going to be hard finding its niche from day 1. Though, not been impressed by the football production values and choices of pundits on BT to be fair - Owen...wooden as fuck for instance. I like the fact they are throwing a fair bit of programming on though for MMA , can't ever grumble about that.

James Hector in his early 30s
Sir James Hector, in his 50s
Sir James Hector was internationally renowned as a geologist and explorer who died a hundred years ago this month. He was the first Director of the Colonial Museum and Geological Survey (Te Papa's predecessor) and held this position for almost 40 years. He could be considered the founding father of Te Papa and its partner GNS Science.
From Scotland to New Zealand
Hector was born in Scotland in 1834. Hector arrived in New Zealand in 1862 after exploring western Canada for three years. He first worked in Otago, then came to Wellington in 1865 to run the Colony's Geological Survey and Museum.
Hector was also in charge of many other official scientific bodies. He dedicated himself to identifying natural resources, overseeing scientific research and publishing, and promoting New Zealand at many international exhibitions.
Hector's legacy
Hector was an extremely influential figure and received many honours in his lifetime, including a knighthood in 1887. His legacy continues today. A settlement, a mountain, a lake, a scientific award, and eleven species - including Hector's Dolphin - are all named after him.

PCL Prospects: Profar ready to shine
Shortstop has chance to wow fans in hitter-friendly league
By Ashley Marshall / Special to MLB.com | April 3, 2013 6:00 AM ET
Here's a ranking of the 10 prospects we're most excited to see light up the Pacific Coast League in 2013:
No. 1. Jurickson Profar (SS, Round Rock Express): Profar isn't just the best prospect in the Pacific Coast League, there's a good argument to be made that he's the best prospect in baseball. Ranked first overall by MLB.com, the Curacao native is the complete package. He hits well from both sides of the plate and generates more pop than you might expect for someone his size. He also has good instincts on the basepaths as well as one of the best gloves of any prospect in the Minors.
No. 2. Oscar Taveras (OF, Memphis Redbirds): While Profar might be the higher ranked prospect headed into 2013, Taveras may be the most exciting. Not only does he play an excellent center field, he could be the best pure hitter in Triple-A. His patience and plate coverage ensure he doesn't strike out too often and his violent swing allows him to rip the ball to all fields with plus power. He hit .321 with 23 homers and 94 RBIs -- both career highs -- last season at Double-A Springfield.
No. 4. Travis d'Arnaud (C, Las Vegas 51s): The Mets' backstop of the future, d'Arnaud is expected to reach Citi Field by the summer -- assuming he suffers no setbacks in Sin City. The 24-year-old came to New York in the trade that sent Cy Young Award winner R.A. Dickey to Toronto, and he stayed with the Mets in big league camp until the final week of Spring Training. d'Arnaud is among the Minors' best defensive catchers, but he also can hit for a high average with plus power -- he batted .333 with 16 homers and 52 RBIs in half a season in 2012.
No. 5. Zack Wheeler (RHP, Las Vegas 51s): Wheeler advanced to Triple-A Buffalo in 2012 after spending most of the year honing his craft in the Eastern League, where he went 10-6 with a 3.26 ERA. His mid- to high-90s sinking fastball is his primary weapon, but he's not afraid to keep hitters honest by throwing his curveball and slider early in counts. The Mets insist they won't rush Wheeler to the Majors, but a hot start in hitter-friendly Las Vegas could force their hand.
No. 6. Tyler Skaggs (LHP, Reno Aces): Baseball's No. 1 left-handed pitching prospect, Skaggs is ranked 10th overall on MLB.com's list. He went from the Southern League to the Majors in 2012, and there's every chance his stay in Reno is short and sweet.He didn't crack the big league rotation out of camp, but with an advanced curveball and sinking fastball, the first-rounder may require only a little more seasoning in the Minors to make his next stay in Arizona a permanent one.
No. 7. Danny Hultzen (LHP Tacoma Rainiers): If you look at Hultzen's 2012 body of work, it's easy to forget he made his professional debut only 12 months ago. The second overall pick in the 2011 Draft started in Jackson and ended in Tacoma, going 9-7 with a 3.05 ERA in 25 appearances. The 6-foot-3 left-hander struck out 136 batters over 124 innings in his first year out of the University of Virginia, and Mariners fans should be excited to see what he has in store for an encore.
No. 8. Mike Olt (OF/3B, Round Rock): This Rangers slugger led the Texas League with 28 homers and ranked fourth with 82 RBIs, an impressive feat considering he also played 16 Major League games through August and September. A third baseman by trade, Olt should see considerable time in the outfield while Adrian Beltre is blocking him in Arlington. Expect a high on-base percentage in Round Rock with power numbers to match.
No. 9. Jonathan Singleton (1B, Oklahoma City RedHawks): Singleton enters his fifth year in pro ball coming off a career season at Corpus Christi which saw him smack 21 homers and plate 79 runs -- both career highs. The 2009 eighth-round pick has a keen eye and the ability to put the ball in play with conviction, but RedHawks fans will have to wait until around Memorial Day to see him in action following a 50-game suspension for violating Minor League Baseball's Drug Prevention and Treatment Program.
No. 10. Didi Gregorius (SS, Reno Aces): Gregorius was unable to throw for two months around Christmas after straining a ligament in his right elbow. Though the injury did not require surgery, it all but ruled him out of contention for an Opening Day gig in the Majors and ensured the Netherlands native would begin the year in the Minors. Traded from Cincinnati to Cleveland to Arizona in the three-team deal headlined by Trevor Bauer, Gregorius is an athletic defender at a premium position. He had a cup of coffee with the Reds last year and he's almost ready for a full-time role.

This is a section to post bugs AND FIXES!!!!!. Thread moved.
I am trying to update dsniff with a patch, but I have the error below when a itry to make ./configure
Berkeley DB with 1.85 compatibility not found
Does any one have any idea of what I have to do?
I tyed to install DB4 but it doesn't work.
Thx for sharing your info with me
This is a section to post bugs AND FIXES!!!!!. Thread moved.
Sorry for having post in the wrong topic.
I have searched, but stilll no solution to my problem
Please could anyone help me?
SO does anyone know how I could enable the compat182 thing on berkeley?
Does Berkeley install by default or not?
I am running crazy, so if you have any idea I take it.
There is a --enable compta185 option when doing ./configure. But is there any way to make it work without reinstalling all the berkeley database?
I have found that the dsniff on backtrack isn't the same than the other. So when you want to install the "orginal" dsniff, you have to install berkeley DB with the option "./configure --enable-compta185"
But I still have a problem installing dsniff.
I have installed the correct libnet, the correct libnids... but I have errors. Does anyone has tryed to install dsniff on his backtrack?
"I have error"......
This is not adequate enough information for us to be able to help you. Please post what errors you are receiving and some shred of proof that you are trying to figure this out for yourself, because I, not even having this issue, was able to solve it in about 20 minutes worth of research........
Exercise your Google'Fu........
"The goal of every man should be to continue living even after he can no longer draw breath."
I haven't post without searching on this fuc*** google. If you are to lazy to give a hand, don't even post....
I finally resolve this problem, I have installed berkeley with the --enable-compat185 option, and I have patched the dsniff thing (3 patchs to make it work).
If any one want a tuto for the install, just ask.
I would be pleased to help
hey how the hell did you fix it!!! I am going crazy trying to get it to work!!!

Antenna Advancement?
Technology is moving at an accelerated pace. Processor development yields novel architectures, greater power, and faster speeds; and, all the while, technology companies and device manufacturers are vying to be the one with the "next best thing." I have been in the mil/aero industry more than a decade and have always been on top of the latest and greatest; it's a geek's hobby after all. However, there is one area of new tech that is just now beginning to come under scrutiny for what some call an inherent lack of innovation to advance the state of the art: antennas.
Antennas were first built and experimented with in the late 1800s by Heinrich Hertz to help prove the existence of electromagnetic waves first postulated in a theory by James Clerk Maxwell. The experiment was quite advanced for the time. Hertz place an emitter dipole in the focal point of a parabolic antenna and later published his findings in 1889. The real antenna or aerial development began in 1895 by the famous Guglielmo Marconi; he placed a wire up the length of a 2.5 meter tent pole that was used for both receiving and transmitting. Interestingly enough, the Italian word for tent pole is l'antenna central so the pole that carried the wire was simply called l'antenna by Marconi. This term popularized by Marconi simply means "pole" in Italian; it is where we derived the current universal word for the device, antenna.
In recent press, electronics mega-giant Apple Inc. has come under fire for an apparent lack of design, testing, and innovation in regards to the antenna design in the new Apple iPhone 4. Consumers are complaining that when the phone is held in a certain manner, performance in transmission and reception are crippled, making the iPhone essentially a useless piece of quite expensive portable electronics. Some have gone so far as to file civil lawsuits against Apple saying the phone should never have been released with such an obvious flaw.
Can you imagine the implications if such an approach was taken with todays modern military hardware? The military's design for the future of combat is largely based upon the network-centric battlefield with secure wireless mesh networks being a huge part of this push. The military is having a hard time keeping up with bleeding-edge technology and is relying more and more on commercial of the shelf (COTS) hardware. Is it possible that a COTS product be fielded such as a mobile handheld and it fails because a soldier holds it incorrectly? I think it is entirely possible even with stringent mil-standard testing required for all military hardware.
So what is the next generation of antennas going to look like? As I see it, the afterthought of a trace in a circuit board or a wire just isn't cutting it. Modern software can simulate next to anything and why should antenna simulation be left out? This geek thinks it may be time for a bit more innovation and ingenuity with regards to antenna technologies that have been around for more than a century.

Isolated vocals from The Beatles' "Abbey Road Medley"
Check out the isolated vocal tracks from "the medley" from The Beatles' Abbey Road. While there is a small amount of instrumentation, this offers an amazing look into the vocals on the record. Despite the band's impending break-up, they are able to blend together perfectly.
Eric Alper had the following to say about these recordings in Open Culture:
That medley is such an impressive demonstration of The Beatles' range of voice and sensibility that it almost functions as a capsule for the sound of their whole later career—all the weird narratives, blues, ballads, and gorgeously lush hymns and lullabies. What remains constant throughout every Beatles' record—even before George and Ringo's songwriting contributions—is the vocal and lyrical interplay of Lennon/McCartney, and it's all on fine display in the medley.
"The medley" contains the songs "You Never Give Me Your Money" (McCartney), "Sun King" (Lennon, with McCartney and Harrison), "Mean Mr. Mustard" (Lennon), "Polythene Pam" (Lennon), "She Came In Through the Bathroom Window" (McCartney), "Golden Slumbers" (McCartney), "Carry That Weight" (McCartney, Lennon, Harrison, and Starr), and "The End" (McCartney).
Although Abbey Road wasn't the final album released by The Beatles, it was their final recording session, taking place between April and October of 1969 after the disasterous Get Back sessions. These sessions were relatively free from the conflict that had plagued the band following the death of The Beatles' manager Brian Epstein in 1967.
The album was divided into two halves as a compromise between John Lennon, who wanted to record a traditional album with individual, unrelated songs, and Paul McCartney and long-time Beatle producer George Martin, who sought to continue with a thematic approach similar to Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. "The Abbey Road Medley" is taken from McCartney and Martin's thematic portion of the album.
While initial reviews were mixed, critizing it for have an artificial and inauthentic sound, in retrospect many critics have sited Abbey Road The Beatle's greatest album.
The Abbey Road cover, featuring the band at a zebra crossing, has become one of the most famous and imitated album covers history. It's also the only Beatle cover to feature neither the band's name nor the album title.
Listen to the album version of the medley for comparison:

CHINO HILLS - The Sheriff's Department is refusing to release any information related to an Oct. 4 officer-involved shooting at the Shoppes Lifestyle center in Chino Hills.
Sheriff's officials have refused to name the off-duty officer involved in the shooting or any of the victims and have declined to elaborate on the circumstances of the shooting, which they initially described as a "road rage" incident.
In refusing to provide the information, sheriff's Lt. Brett Williams said providing any information would "endanger the successful completion of a criminal investigation and endanger the safety of persons involved in an investigation."
Williams also noted that a law enforcement agency's criminal investigative records are privileged for an indefinite period of time, and providing such materials would violate the privacy of involved police officers, witnesses and a victims.
Peter Scheer, executive director of the California First Amendment Coalition, said the Sheriff's Department is wrong to withhold all information.
"When someone who is an off-duty law enforcement official is involved in a public violent episode such as a shooting, officials can't hide behind public confidentiality rules," Scheer said.
"They need to explain the best they can to the public, and they can do that consistent with protection the civil and privacy rights of all people involved.
"They are certainly in the position to tell the public more than `no comment,' and they have an obligation to explain the circumstances," Scheer said.
"And if it turns out to be the case that the off-duty police officer at the time of the shooting is being investigated in his personal capacity ... then the special confidentiality rules for police should not apply at all."
Investigators confirmed the shooting had been sparked by road rage, but did not release who detectives believe was the aggressor or provide details on the incident.
San Bernardino County sheriff's spokeswoman Cindy Bachman said the officer involved was considered an average citizen at the time of the shooting and was carrying a concealed weapon legally.
She declined to release his name.
According to sheriff's officials, the altercation began on the 71 Freeway. Both drivers pulled off the freeway and stopped at the Shoppes.
The off-duty officer told investigators that the four men exited their vehicle and approached him. The officer said he saw objects in the hands of two of the four men.
The officer then opened fire, wounding two.
Sheriff's officials have refused to identify the wounded or provide any information on their current condition.
Dozens of witnesses and shopping center patrons were stranded for several hours as sheriff's homicide detectives conducted interviews and surveyed the scene.
Business resumed normally the next morning, with customers coming and going from various stores.
Little evidence remained of the previous night's events except for vehicles from television news outlets.
No one has been arrested, leaving some puzzled and concerned.
Assistant Sheriff Ron Cochran said the Sheriff's Department stands by its decision to withhold further information.
The off-duty Huntington Park police officer is a victim in this case, Cochran said, adding that it is still under investigation.
"We have no other comment at this time," Cochran said.

3.1 Phillip Lim Spring 2013
Are you the victim or the victor? That was one of the themes of Phillip Lim's spring 3.1 collection. It was clear who Lim wants his woman to be; he showed a steady run of tough-girl pieces like utility jackets, ripped jeans, and overalls reminiscent of the rockers he named his shoes after (PJ, Courtney, Shirley). He's feeling a little nostalgic for the nineties, but please—even though there was a lot of plaid combined with florals—don't call this grunge. The idea was to mix what's modern and what's from your youth and make it appropriate. (One way: Put chiffon in the slits of your denims so they can be deemed cool, not trashy.)
The key word today really was "mix." Lim was inspired by the Cut-Up technique, where one slices up a text and puts the words back together in a new order, using every single one. (It was originated by the Dadaists, famously used by William S. Burroughs and experimented with by David Bowie, Kurt Cobain, and Thom Yorke). When designing spring, Lim literally cut pieces of fabric and rearranged them into T-shirt dresses and pajama trousers and more. There was also an I Heart NYC motif, though the heart was upside down as it might fall in a Cut-Up. And there was a deer-fleeing-a-panther appliqué. (Both harken back to the "kill or be killed" mentality; New York can be tough.)
It's a far cry from the sweet little dresses and obviously pretty clothes Lim started out with last decade, but, he says, the silhouettes are pure Lim. It's hard to say whether his contemporaries will feel the pull back to the type of thing they might have worn to the original Lollapalooza. And do his customers of late even remember the days when designers' rock star heroes ruled the scene? Chances are, they were raised on Britney, not Courtney. But that shouldn't matter much.

Cool. Don't suppose there's any semi Pro fights (no limb breaks?).
I think this is what UK MMA needs. Not sure about 5 x 1 min rounds though. Could get boring for the crowd. 30 second rounds would be better or ideally ten second bursts of fighting. This would nullify the fitness aspect- giving real fighters a chance rather than the toned freaks who dominate at the moment.
Do you have the addition of hairpulling and scratching for women's divisions?
The full rules will be published shortly, but I feel hairpulling will slow the fight down... the crowd want to see brutality not a lame impression of Nikki Clarke. Scratching is ok, but could lead to an accidental eye gouge and I don't want this event to be thought of as cock-fighting etc.

Lake County teen admits making online threat against Mentor High School
(Mentor)---A 17 year old Mentor boy will spend time at the juvenile detention center as part of a plea deal with prosecutors.
Ironically, the boy's attorney, Mark Ziccarelli, says the young man, who has been homeschooled the last few years, is learning socialization skills in detention, and court officials say he's a model resident.
The young man is accused of posting an online threat September 12 on Facebook, in which he said he and some friends "could have killed a lot of people" at the high school.
Ziccarelli told a Lake County Juvenile Court magistrate that his client never meant to hurt anyone, and he has no criminal record.
The attorney says socialization was part of the problem, because the teen was homeschooled.
Under the plea agreement, which must be approved by the Lake County Juvenile Court judge, the teen will be in detention indefinitely for counseling.

word of advice... after the weigh ins dont eat a chicken tikka roll... as thats what i did.. and i puked after my first fight which was just before my second, and i puked after the second aswell... i won them both.. but i puked none the less lol
three wins three losses need to get my arse back on winning ways
Try and get a copy of 'The Grapplers Guide to Nutrition'. Very good book, and talks about on the day weighs and day before.
I followed it for my first semi-pro fight going form 74kg to 70kg and it worked well. Also know a lot of other fighters who have followd it, or something very similar.
im lucky i go from 100kg to 90 kg in 2 weeks just from training hard,but i can shit 6lb aswell

PathAway PRO - Outdoor GPS Nav

If you usually engage in outdoor activities, trips and other adventure sports, you'll be in need of a great GPS tool to help you locate yourself, track friends, and create routes and paths for your outdoor pursuits.
PathAway is a highly complete application that provides users with plenty of useful tools for outdoor navigation. With PathAway, you'll be able to create your own maps and download others from the Internet using GPS, plus make the most of your activities by adding photos and descriptions everywhere you go.
It's obvious that PathAway is a comprehensive app designed to bring users the best navigation experience. It will accompany them anywhere they go.
The app uses many kinds of maps (street, aviation, topographic) and allows you to track anything you want, even in the background. The tool for creating routes is detailed and complete and it includes alarms to help you figure out when you're going off track or reaching your desired location. It also lets you set points and take pictures for future referencing.
Besides all the utility options, PathAway also includes customization features to improve the user experience. Create your own dashboard, change route and track line colors, and move around all the icons so the screen looks the way you want.
The main issue with PathAway is that design and usability aren't exactly on par with the content it provides. There isn't an interactive tutorial (which would be much more useful) and the instructions provided are too text-heavy and can't even be read properly with a smarphone device (you can't zoom in and out, just swipe to the sides).
In addition, the design doesn't look ultra professional and the whole app looks a bit chaotic; it doesn't really make things easier for users, even though it provides an amazing set of features.

HVAC Upgrade Underway for Bender Library
Students have often reported that the temperatures in the library can be very cool in summer and very warm in winter. The library and university are addressing this situation with a summer construction project to upgrade the HVAC (heating, ventilation, and cooling) system in the Bender building. AU's Facilities Management office will work to improve temperature consistency and to save energy.
Library users may be slightly affected by the construction, which will be done overnight and began Monday, May 13. The work is expected to last for eight weeks and will begin on the library's third floor and continue downward floor-by-floor. The areas, which may experience uncomfortably warm or cool temperatures, will be cordoned off. This will also protect visitors from any materials that may have been dislodged from the ceilings during the process. Books located in these areas may be retrieved by visiting the Borrowing Desk on the first floor.
Library staff members are taking all measures to ensure this project affects visitors as little as possible. Please contact the Information Desk in the lobby with any questions or comments at 202-885-3232.

Thread: Advice for Rusty Bow Hunter.
Advice for Rusty Bow Hunter.
Well, I finally made the plunge and bought a new Mathews Switchback bow and all the goodies that come with it (sights, Mathews Quiver, RedHead arrows, and Stabilizer). We won't talk about what the total price was (broke the bank). Anyway everyone, it has been over 25 years since I last went bow hunting for deer (My first bow was a Jennings). I need some advice. Do I need to get a deer call? I saw one relatively cheat. Do they really work? Also, treestand or on the ground for hunting? Also, is it advisable to walk around when bow hunting? If anyone can give me any good advice I would be very grateful. Also, if I get a deer, it will be my first ever. Do I really need to wear everything in camo or can I wear a pair of jeans with a camo jacket and hat?
Thanks and God Bless

welcome back
glad to hear you decided to take up bowhunting again.
i would recommend at least a grunt tube. it wouldnt have to be anything special, but they really do work oftentimes, its like anything else, it wont work everytime, but they are definitely worth the investment.
I also recommend hunting from a treestand. the deer are far less likely to see you, but i also hunt on the ground occasionally and as long as you're careful about movement and camoflage, you'll probably be fine. if you do hunt from the ground, i would highly suggest full camo from head to toe. Even in a tree, full camo is the best way to go. You don't necessarily need the most expensive scent eliminating carbon camo on the market, i just use camo jeans, jacket, gloves, hat and facemask, all of which can be found at walmart or some similar store. as long as you learn to hunt only when the wind is right, youll be just fine.
I think you'll have much better luck if you find a place and stay there than if you try to walk around. more times than not, it doesn't turn out so well. Thats been my experience anyway.
I hope this info helps. have a safe and successful season!Nick

Hi, Your gonna love it this time as there are many more deers to shoot at now. camo it is a must,Head to toe as stated. I also have found a wonderful product that eliminates the UV that shine like a florecent light to deer that are put in clothing to make them attractive to us. It is call uv Killer by astko they also make a uv free scent free wash for cloths. I have been using this stuff for 3 years now and I get closer and see more and bigger deers. It really works. A treestand will definatly come in handy, but you still need to sit still for the spooky ol does and bigger bucks will stand afar and watch for movement in the trees as they have been the target of a few bowhunters that were not to sucessful. Good Hunting and God Bless, Holy Smokes

I just got back into bowhunting after quitting when I got out of high school to go to college. It's been about 17 years for me.
The biggest thing I would recommend is taking it slow on how much you shoot. If you're like me and not in the best shape, shooting bow can really mess with your shoulder. I had forgotten how much I loved to shoot and practiced too much at too much weight. I'm still recovering.
Looks like you got setup with a great bow and accessories. I wouldn't recommend a deer call at this time. From my research they are very specific to certain times and situations. I think the best thing you can do is learn about the area you are hunting in to find the best ambush points.
I would recommend a tree stand. A guy at work is somewhat mentoring me and suggested the one at Dick's that typically is on sale for $29.99. It comes with a safety strap. It was easy to install, is solid, and most importantly doesn't squeak. I also bought a set of the climbing sticks on sale for $29.99. If you use the coupon in the free hunting guide that you get from the state you get $10 off any purchase of $50 or more from Dick's. So you can have a treestand and climbing sticks for $50. Not bad huh.
I really liked the climbing sticks. They're quick and easy to setup and give you a lot of hand holds to climb with. I really like when I'm climbing out in the dark. You don't have to worry about finding the next step. You just run your foot down the center piece until it hits the next step. The only negative is that they are heavier and bulkier than screw-in steps but I think the advantages easily overcome this.
As far as camo, I bought a shirt and pants from Walmart. Honestly though and I'm sure some will disagree, a treestand really helps with the deer not seeing you. I recently was in the stand thinking the deer would come from the woods across the field from me. Nothing was happening so I loudly stood up and began stretching. I heard a noise behind me that I thought was a squirrel. I finally looked around to see an eight pointer walking under my stand 12 feet away. He never noticed me. That made me a true believer in treestands.
Hope all that might help some.
Straightandtrue67, welcome to the forum. Congrats on the new bow I think you made a great choice. As for the deer call I use a grunt tube which can easily be turned into a doe bleat with a simple sliding of an O-ring. I enjoy ground blinds the most I think it is a little more difficult but that is why I enjoy it so much more than a treestand. Although I believe treestands are great and are probably the most widely used method for hunting whitetails around here. As for camo I believe in full body camo pants,shirt or jacket,hat,facemask,gloves,boots. I think blue jeans will work fine but the solid pattern of jeans will make you stick out a little more. Number one thing I think is scent control it is much easier to fool a deers eyes and ears than his nose. I hope this helps you out a little. Good luck to ya and enjoy the outdoors its getting harder and harder to find places to hunt and fish in this country.
gamegeeky, that 8-pointer must have been blind, and deaf. Lucky for you there was no doe with him yet. They are the hard ones to fool.

The MU Lions and their coach, Curt Bickley, will be taking a mission trip to Taiwan May 10-19. Bickley has been coaching men's basketball at Multnomah since 2003. This will be the sixth mission trip he has taken with the Lions and the fourth mission trip to Taiwan.
The team will work with Taiwan Sunshine, a nonprofit that supports special needs children by providing outreach and special events, such as the Hero Games, which is similar to the Special Olympics. During their trip, the Lions will volunteer at the Hero Games and run various basketball clinics around the country. The team members will not only have the chance to teach children the rules of the game; they will also get to share the Gospel with them.
Eleven team members will be traveling to Taiwan, and each of them needs to raise $2,000 to cover expenses for traveling, food and lodging. The team has shared the following prayer requests with the Multnomah community:
- Successful fundraisers
- Spiritual, mental and physical preparation for the trip
- Safety while traveling
- Eternal results from their ministry
The Lions are still hard at work raising money for the trip. The cutoff date for donations is April 20.
Want to contribute to this mission trip? Include the following information with a check made payable to "MU Athletic Tour":
- Your name and address
- The amount you're donating
- The name of the player whom you're supporting (This is optional. You may choose to help a specific player or donate to the general fund.)

Alex Morgan's goal beats Canada, puts U.S. in Olympic final
MANCHESTER, England – They talked about redemption for months on end, and now it's here, the pending denouement of a script fit for Hollywood.
With a 4-3 semifinal victory against Canada late in the second period of extra time Monday, the U.S. women's soccer team advanced to play Japan for Olympic gold. The Americans also get a shot at payback for the island nation's victory on penalty kicks in the World Cup last summer.
Contrary to the Americans' recent history with Canada, it wasn't easy. Christine Sinclair turned in a Herculean effort: three goals that put her team in the lead each time. The U.S. women clawed back, matching every pot raise, before Alex Morgan punched home the game-winner with her forehead in the 123rd minute.
PHOTOS: Images from the USA's thrilling victory
COLUMN: Brennan: Morgan rises to occassion
MORE: Canadian team feels 'robbed' and 'cheated'
"We were unwilling to give up, and that says a lot about who we are as a team, what our goals are," said Abby Wambach, who scored on a penalty kick in the 80th minute to tie the score 3-3. "Even when Canada scored their third goal, there was something in me that knew we had more, that we could give more."
Added Morgan: "It was a crazy battle. Coming back and back and back. I'm still in shock."
In five Olympic games, the USA has yet to play in London. That will change this week as the Americans punched their ticket to iconic Wembley Stadium with Monday's win. Morgan, the 23-year-old striker who came off the bench to star in that failed Cup bid, will lead them there.
She showed off her skills Monday at storied Old Trafford, rising for that uncharacteristic pivotal header. Nicknamed "Baby Horse" for her world-class speed, Morgan has been working on headers in practice with coach Pia Sundhage's encouragement.
"It's not what you would expect, but that's what this game was all about, the unexpected," Wambach said of Morgan's goal.
Wambach, the 32-year-old striker renowned for headers, is No. 2 on the all-time list for international goals after scoring her 143rd on a penalty kick in the second half. In extra time, she was inches behind Morgan as they both rose for Heather O'Reilly's crossing pass.
While Wambach leads the team with five goals in this tournament, Morgan had struggled to find the back of the net since notching two in the opener against France.
"I don't care who scores as long as we score, and that's all that matters," said Morgan, who walked away from the net with a relieved grin on her face as teammates swarmed her. "I didn't even see it go in."
Morgan, Wambach and the Americans next face a Japanese team that won its semifinal with France 2-1 on Monday and is unbeaten in this tournament with two draws.
Overwhelmed by one of the greatest games she'd ever seen, Sundhage wasn't ready Monday to look ahead. "I'm trying to live in the moment," she said. "I haven't even thought about Japan yet."
The USA can expect an equally robust crowd in London compared to the one at Old Trafford on Monday. For the France-Japan semifinal, 61,482 were in attendance, compared to 26,630 in Manchester for the U.S.-Canada game.
The Americans still face many questions heading into the final. Chief among them: How did one player score three goals on the No. 1 ranked team in the world?
The consensus among American players was that Sinclair had the game of her life.
"Christine Sinclair is unbelievable," U.S. midfielder Megan Rapinoe said. "She's definitely one of the best players in the world, one of the best players ever."
It was Rapinoe who answered the first two goals of her fellow University of Portland alum. Her first goal, which tied the score at 1-1 in the first half, was a rare "Olympic goal" — a corner kick that goes untouched into the net.
U.S. goalkeeper Hope Solo, meanwhile, said she was preparing for penalty kicks when Morgan drove home the winner.
Offering no explanations, no complaints and no predictions, Solo was initially speechless, for a change.
"I don't have much to say," she said. "I still need to wrap my head around what happened."

Simon has blended the finest Cognacs drawn exclusively from our two estates ; the Domain du Maine Drilhon, in the Petite Champagne region and the Domain de chez Maillard, on striking chalky hillslopes in the Fins Bois zone.
This new brand has the ambitious objective of modernising Cognac's image and distancing itself from Cognac's traditional codes through its presentation and the design of the bottle. This while remaining respectful of the product's traditions and intransigent about its quality. At last a Cognac which looks like you."

Is Ninja Theory's Dante demonically ported or angelically faithful to PC?
Latest news
Capcom UK now has "destiny and our fate in our hands," new Resident Evil "a good showcase" for going 'back-to-roots'
Now that Capcom territories don't need everything signed off on by Capcom Japan, there's a buzz of excitement and optimism back among the various offices and studios. Capcom UK now has their "fate in our hands."
They can start making better autonomous decisions, and the new Resident Evil: Revelations 2 is the publisher entering "uncharted territory" as it goes episodic with 'appetite strong' for the full boxed version.
Capcom "had its missteps, it's learning, it's definitely trying"
Dead Rising 3 producer Mike Jones from Capcom Vancouver has said everybody at the company is "a huge Capcom fan." They don't have any 'yeah, whatever' employees as "most people f**king love Capcom."
He admits Capcom's size makes it difficult to get "all those pieces moving in the right direction" speedily, and acknowledges mistakes but there's "a lot of big stuff" coming.
Report: Capcom's European workforce "faces redundancy" of "more than half"
Corporate restructuring on a 'major scale' within Capcom's European division means that "more than half" of the workforce will find their positions made redundant. This follows a 'bad fiscal year' for the company.
Capcom confirmed the EU business is now "currently evaluating its structure" following in the footsteps of their US operations. Missed targets have hit hard.
Capcom posts annual fiscal results, Resident Evil 6
The previous forecast for their end of year fiscal by Capcom has been more-or-less on the money (no pun intended). An profit of £19.42 million was posted, which is down 52% year-on-year.
Resident Evil 6 "did not meet" their expectations with sales at 4.9 million, falling short of the 7 million they hoped for. DmC: Devil May Cry enjoyed "stable popularity" overseas, with no total sales mentioned.
Euro PSN content for the week features free Mass Effect 3 on PSN Plus
Sony has revealed this week's PlayStation Network content for European gamers, including some of the PSN Plus deals. Notably, PSN Plus Euro gamers can get Mass Effect 3 free, along with Mass Effect 2 for 10% off, presumably to celebrate the release of the Citadel DLC.

Some kind of fly, gnit, gnat, tick or flea of some kind...the desert kind.
Under it all he went down in the grass of the slope, fighting with all his strength, but powerless as a gnat in a pond.
The one that causes the most irritation is smaller than the average English gnat.
Then he began to contemplate it, much as a philosopher contemplates a gnat's ear in the ample field of his microscope.
He walked round them the first time, but there was no sign of the gnat.
Miserable hypocrites, who swallow so large a camel and strain at so very small a gnat!
But this would be straining at a gnat, and swallowing a camel.
It is very absurd in these worthy defenders of the justice of God to strain at a gnat and swallow a camel.
To these must be added the Druid frigate, the sloop of war, and the gnat.
I have seen him watching him with angry and puzzled gaze as though he would satisfy himself why this gnat of a man worried him!
Old English gnætt "gnat, midge, mosquito," earlier gneat, used of various small, flying insects, from Proto-Germanic *gnattaz (cf. Low German gnatte, German Gnitze); perhaps literally "biting insect" and related to gnaw.

Ok this is a basic tutorial. (Needs TOR to run.)
Now if you don't know already proxychains allows tunneling TCP or DNS trough proxies. It supports HTTP, socks4 and socks5 proxy servers that can be chained together.
Proxychains is used to:
-hide your ip
-run programs trough proxy servers
-acces your home network from the outside trought reverse proxy.
Ok now Backtrack already has it installed so we are going to skip that part and go the the configuration.
To configure Proxychains just open a terminal and type in : "nano /etc/proxychains.conf" as you can see we have some features about how the program chains proxies:
-dynamic_chain: takes the proxies in the order you added them and skips dead proxies.
-random_chain: takes the proxies from the list in a random order.
-strict_chain: takes the proxies in the order you added them like the dynamic_chain except this chaining option does not skip dead proxies.
Ok after you pick up the chain option you need to add proxies, if you scrool down proxychains.conf you will find something like this :
This tells you how the proxies should be added to the list, you can separate type from host and the rest just by adding a black space or by hitting the "tab" key.Code:# ProxyList format # type host port [user pass] # (values separated by 'tab' or 'blank')
Than you will see the proxylist where we can add our proxies:
Ok after the last line "socks4 127.0.0.1 9050" (do not DELETE that!) we add our proxies. We can find those with a simple search on google.Code:[ProxyList] # add proxy here ... # meanwile # defaults set to "tor" socks4 127.0.0.1 9050
After we finished our configuration, we save the file. Now it's time to run the program.
(this command is used to resolve host names via proxy or tor)Code:proxyresolv targethost.com
(this command tells the proxychains program that after he passed trough the proxies you added in the proxychains.conf file to connect to the "site.com" via firefox)Code:proxychains firefox site.com
(same as previous definition, only this time it connects trought telnet to the target)Code:proxychains telnet target
Well as I specified at the beginning it is a basic tutorial. Hope you like it!
P.S. Sorry if I didn't type all the words correct, I was in a hurry.

Just to sort of echo what Archangel.Ameal has said, there is no need or reason to be in a hurry when writing a "How To". I do appreciate the time you have taken to research and document these subjects however when writing a tutorial you need to make sure of a few things:
1. Everything is spelled right
2. Everything works
3. You did not leave out any steps (no matter how dumb you think they are)
4. All code is properly formatted so lazy people can copy and paste
5. Everything works
When we write tutorials they are copied and hot linked all over the internet and sometimes these little pieces of writing are our "reputation" so its important to be as thorough, clear and proffesional as possible.
I second Archangel.Amael's advice about the code boxes. It will make the tutorial easier to read and give it a more organized aspect.

Is an SSH Chain possible with this procedure?
I don't think so, from what I have read it supports socks4, socks5, http so I'm not sure about ssh.
Still not underestimating the power...
There is no such thing as bad information - There is truth in the data, so you sift it all, even the crap stuff.
nice tut.
Easy to read, easy to understand. Good for introduction to tunneling w bt4

Dear all,
thank you,
can you make more details because i don't understand.
make it with live example.
best regards,
As for tunneling via proxychains there are a few things to note.
#1 being that if your using a socks5 you dont need to resolve, as proxychains will do a remote resolve for you.
#2 being if i have a remote host running all i need to do is this "ssh -D 9000 firstname.lastname@example.com" .. then i change the proxychains.conf to "socks5 127.0.0.1 9000" .. and then i can do this "proxychains telnet google.com" .. or even ........ "proxychains ssh -w 0:0 email@example.com" and all will work fine. "-w 0:0 is vpn fyi"
#3 being that if you make a new directory and copy the proxychains.conf to it whatever you change it to will override the /etc/proxychains.conf which is VERY useful if you intend to chain a bunch of things but dont want to write it into your config.
Hope that helped a little.

They can add style and warmth to a kitchen's décor – or make it look old and outdated. Unfortunately, because new kitchen cabinets are expensive – not to mention time-consuming and difficult to install - many homeowners resign themselves to living with old, tired cabinets that don't reflect their style or personality. Fortunately, now there's an alternative that puts the look of new factory-finished cabinets within reach of any do-it-yourselfer - new Rust-Oleum Cabinet Transformations Do-It- Yourself Refinishing System. This innovative coating system transforms the look of old, worn cabinets into the look of beautiful hand-crafted cabinetry, at a fraction of the cost of installing new – without the downtime or mess associated with cabinet replacement or refacing. "Cabinet Transformations gives homeowners the power to transform their kitchen without the expense of buying new cabinets or hiring a contractor," says Rust-Oleum senior brand manager Ashley Lehrmann. "Plus it eliminates the mess and lengthy downtime associated with cabinet replacement or refacing." A ground-breaking coating system, Cabinet Transformations is formulated to give out-of-date cabinets a factory-like finish without stripping, sanding or priming. Ideal for wood, melamine and laminate cabinetry, do-it-yourselfers can get professional results in just a few simple steps: Clean and degloss the surface with the Cabinet Transformations Deglosser and Scrub Pad. Apply the Cabinet Transformations Bond Coat. As an optional step, apply Cabinet Transformations Decorative Glaze. Apply the Cabinet Transformations Protective Top Coat. It's really that simple! Cabinet Transformations is available in 70 different color combinations, including popular cabinet colors like Espresso, Cabernet and Toasted Almond - homeowners are sure to find a color that expresses their style and complements their kitchen décor. The smooth factory-like finish provides superior stain and scratch resistance with topnotch durability, so it stands up to daily wear and tear. It resists scuffing, cracking, chipping and peeling and handles even the toughest non-abrasive household cleaners to keep cabinets looking beautiful for years to come. It's great for updating the look of bathroom vanities and furniture too. The Cabinet Transformations kit comes complete with almost everything needed for a successful refinishing project including Deglosser, Scrub Pad, Bond Coat, Decorative Glaze, Glazing Cloth, Protective Top Coat and Stir Sticks. It also includes step-by-step instructions (in both English and Spanish) and an instructional DVD to make the cabinet refinishing project even easier. Cabinet Transformations is backed by a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. A dedicated Product Support line is also available for assistance with projects, if needed.

USC band hall dedication to honor former leader
By: Frenche` Brewer, email@example.com, or 803-777-3691
The University of South Carolina School of Music will strike up the band for a signature event Tuesday, Jan. 29, to honor James K. Copenhaver, director of bands, emeritus.
At the ceremony, the university marching band facility will be named the Copenhaver Band Hall, honoring the man who spent 34 years as the program's popular and influential director of bands. The dedication is set for 5 p.m. at the band hall, 324 Sumter St.
Copenhaver, recently awarded the Phi Beta Mu International Bandmasters Fraternity award for Outstanding Bandmaster, says, "I am grateful and deeply honored to have the USC band building bear my name in recognition of my service and contributions to the university band program. I extend my sincere thanks to all the students, staff, faculty and administrators that assisted me in developing and sustaining a representative college band program at USC."
Copenhaver became director of bands at USC in 1976. Under his leadership, the entire band program achieved a national reputation for excellence.
"It is altogether fitting that the University of South Carolina and its School of Music recognize the unequalled contributions of James K. Copenhaver to the quality of its band programs by naming the facility that was built to his legacy, the nation's finest marching band building, the Copenhaver Band Hall. Jim Copenhaver created the modern Carolina Band and did so by standing on the shoulders of the great ones that preceded him, as we will do now with him for generations to come in a building that rightly bears his name," says Tayloe Harding, dean of the School of Music.
Copenhaver also conducted the University Wind Ensemble and Symphonic Band and taught undergraduate and graduate classes in wind instrument techniques. The Symphonic Band performed at conferences for the South Carolina Music Educators Association, Music Educators National Conference, College Band Directors National Association, and American Bandmasters Association.
Copenhaver has served as a guest conductor, lecturer and adjudicator throughout the United States and is recognized by leading educational institutions for his accomplishments in the areas of instrumental performance and music education. He has earned the Citation of Excellence from the National Band Association, the Distinguished Service to Music Medal for Instrumental Music Education from Kappa Kappa Psi national honorary band fraternity, and both the Outstanding Bandmaster Award and Outstanding Contributor to Bands Award from the South Carolina chapter of Phi Beta Mu national bandmaster fraternity.
In January 2012, the School of Music announced a million dollar bequest from Copenhaver to support band scholarships.
He was inducted into the South Carolina Band Directors Association Hall of Fame in 2003.


text: I'm not sure Justin Bieber should be a pet owner. Just six weeks after buying a pet hamster and promising to bring it to every show with him, Bieber got tired of the hamster and the number of followers it had on Twitter and gave it away to a random fan in Atlanta this week. The fan had no idea when she met Bieber with a bunch of other fans after a show that she was going to get PAC. Bieber just picked her out, handed her the hamster and said take care of it. The girl, shouting loud enough to be heard across the country screamed she would and then Bieber touched her when he handed her the hamster and she fainted which caused the hamster to drop to the ground, run away and be lost forever. No, she got it and has been Tweeting photos of it and has almost 15,000 new Twitter followers since her identity was discovered. She has also received death threats that she was picked instead of some other fans who were at the concert. As for Justin? His manager said the singer needed a break. Yeah, six weeks of pet ownership. What if the fan had just thrown the hamster away? He had no idea.

Hi all,
I've been playing around getting under the hood and customizing the BT4 live image to suit my own particular tastes. One of the things I've noticed is that BT4 comes with three different initrd images (initrd - the default, initrdfr - which doesn't mount swap partitions, and initrd800 which uses an 800x600 framebuffer).
Each of these images has only tiny differences, so I'm wondering why go to the effort of maintaining three separate images? surely whether or not to use swap could be controlled by a boot parameter in menu.lst and the script that mounts swap partitions (/scripts/casper-bottom/13swap) could be tweaked to check /proc/cmdline to decide whether or not to mount swapfs filesystems?
That would give the user the option to boot into an 800x600 framebuffer AND in forensics mode without having to roll a new initrd800fr image.
Am I missing something? is there a reason for the separate images that I'm unaware of?
To be successful here you should read all of the following.
If you are new to Back|Track
Back|Track Wiki
Failure to do so will probably get your threads deleted or worse.
The only difference between the initrd image and the initrdfr image is that the initrd image contains one additional script (/scripts/casper-bottom/13swap) which is used to check the local hard disk drives for swap partitions and to mount them.
All I'm suggesting is that that script be modified so that before it does anything else it first checks /proc/cmdline and if a particular boot flag is present (say, "noswap") then the script immediately exits without ever checking the attached disk drives.
It achieves the same thing (the disks aren't accessed in any way) and it eliminates the need for initrdfr.

The Australian share market has closed lower as weaker than expected retail figures and uninspiring commentary from the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) weighed on investor sentiment.
Lonsec senior client adviser Michael Heffernan said the RBA's economic commentary accompanying its decision to keep interest rates unchanged at 2.5 per cent seemed more downbeat than previous statements.
"I think that may have filtered through to the market because we accelerated the decline after that," Mr Heffernan said.
"Retail sales figures came out today, too. They were okay, but only okay."
RBA governor Glenn Stevens said an earlier decline in the exchange rate was helping to achieve balanced growth in the economy, but less so than previously as a result of the higher levels over the past few months.
"There has been some improvement in indicators for the labour market in recent months, but it will probably be some time yet before unemployment declines consistently," he said.
"Looking ahead, continued accommodative monetary policy should provide support to demand, and help growth to strengthen over time."
Retail spending grew at a sluggish pace in April, with growth of 0.2 per cent below market expectations.
In the resources sector, global miner BHP Billiton was down 19 cents at $36.40, Rio Tinto rose 42 cents to $59.65, and Fortescue Metals dipped one cent to $4.48.
The big four banks were mostly weaker. Commonwealth Bank sagged 36 cents to $81.90, National Australia Bank fell 24 cents to $33.64, Westpac dropped 15 cents to $34.45, and ANZ hovered at $33.71.
Among the retailers, Harvey Norman reversed 11 cents to $3.09, Myer slumped eight cents $2.11, and JB Hi-Fi was 32 cents weaker at $17.62.
* On Tuesday, the benchmark S&P/ASX200 index was down 38.8 points, or 0.7 per cent, at 5,479.7 points.
* The broader All Ordinaries index was down 38.7 points, or 0.7 per cent, at 5,460.5 points.
* The June share price index futures contract was 44 points lower at 5,482 points, with 27,873 contracts traded.
* National turnover was 1.5 billion securities worth $4.42 billion.

Associated Press
BOSTON — President Barack Obama declared "there is a piece of Boston in me" as he paid tribute to a city shaken by what he has called an act of terror. He said: "Every one of us stands with you."
The president also held up Bill Iffrig, the Lake Stevens marathoner whose image was captured as he lay crumpled on the ground after the first blast, as an example of the American spirit.
"Like Bill Iffrig, 78 years old, the runner in the orange tank-top who we all saw get knocked down by the blast, we may be momentarily knocked off our feet, but we'll pick ourselves up," Obama said.
"We'll keep going. We will finish the race."
Obama addressed an interfaith service in the aftermath of Monday's twin blasts that killed three and injured more 170 people at the finish line of the Boston Marathon.
Obama said a day of beauty was shattered when a celebration became a tragedy.
He said Boston gathered Tuesday, quote, "to reaffirm that the spirit of this city is undaunted."
He declared: "You will run again!"
Of the perpetrator, he said: "We will find you."
Obama spoke as his second-term as president is increasingly burdened by terror, politics, and disaster. In the aftermath of Boston's deadly blasts Monday, Obama lost a fight for gun control measures in the Senate, was the target, along with a U.S. senator, of letters that showed traces of poisonous ricin, and awoke Thursday to news of a powerful fertilizer plant explosion that devastated a small Texas town.
The letters alone — one addressed to Obama and another to Sen. Roger Wicker, R-Miss. — evoked eerie parallels to the anthrax attacks that followed the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Authorities arrested a Mississippi man Wednesday in connection with the letters.
It was against that backdrop that Obama and his wife, Michelle, came to Boston Thursday morning, joining a crowd at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross for a "Healing Our City" service. The Obamas sat at the front of the church next to Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick as the service began.
Obama listened from his pew as Boston Mayor Thomas Menino praised the response of his city.
"Nothing will take us down because we take care of one another," Menino said. "Even with the smell of smoke in the air and blood in the streets and tears in our eyes, we triumphed over that hateful act."
Moments later, Patrick said: "We will grieve our losses and heal. We will rise, and we will endure. We will have accountability without vengeance, vigilance without fear."
Sustaining that uplifting theme, Obama recalled his days as a law student at Harvard and declared, "There is a piece of Boston in me."
"Every one of us has been touched by this attack on your beloved city, every one of us stands with you," he said.
Obama also planned to meet with some of those injured, as well as the first responders who rushed toward the blast to help the scores of runners and spectators.
White House spokesman Josh Earnest said Obama received a briefing from national security adviser Lisa Monaco on the status of the investigation into the Boston blast before departing the White House. Accompanying Obama aboard Air Force One were members of the Massachusetts congressional delegation, including Sens. Elizabeth Warren and Mo Cowan.
"We send our support and encouragement to people who never expected that they'd need it — the wounded civilians who are just beginning what will be, I'm sure for some of them, a long road to recovery," Obama said Wednesday in a likely preview of his remarks at the service.
The president has stepped into this role as the nation's consoler in chief many times before in his presidency, most recently in December after the massacre of 20 first-graders and six educators at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn. Before that, there were the deadly shootings in Aurora, Colo., Tucson, Ariz., and Fort Hood, Texas, as well as the natural disasters that tore apart towns and neighborhoods in Missouri and the New York-New Jersey area.
This time, Obama must confront the unique challenges of a terror attack that inevitably revived memories of 9/11. As he did in a statement from the White House on Tuesday, the president was expected to urge the public to remain vigilant, while declaring that "the American people refuse to be terrorized."
