dude, is that your board on ebay??
thats not the board aha if it was i'd be raging out. I have to check kcoast and all the big shops for it sometime but i work almost everyday so im having trouble looking for it. i can tell if some of you were in my position youd be on a dam* mission
I'll keep an eye out for it. I work at a shop down here and so does my roommate. do yourself a favor and at least call the surf shops, never hurts.
If the guy steals a board from your car, right out from under your nose, then he would have probably known u were passed out. Any person seeing a man sleeping in their car would not steal from right behind them, in fear that a.) they're not really sleeping b.) they would wake up. This means that the perpetrator knew you were wasted, and had pronbably seen you getting drunk at whatever party or setting you were in. Long story short, the dude that stole it probably knows you some how...
check your friends homes.
Yeah believe me i broke it down to that much. Problem is I was at a party with 60+ people most of which i didn't really know. But i'm doing my best to have everybody who knew somebody to check, its just not as easy as it sounds. When theres actually waves im gonna go up and down the beach but who knows if it'll turn up/
Excellent move by not drinking and driving! For what it's worth if you are going to sleep in your car again make sure you toss your keys on the floorboards in the back seat. I almost got busted for a DWI once cuz the cop said I was "intending to drive". Not sure if it is true but not worth the stress...
Yeah thanks for the heads up. I always figure that i would rather have lost my board than mine or somebody elses life.. Just hope i get my board back hah
kinda off topic... I was in oahu this summer surfing with some friends on the south shore. One of my dumb friends left his board outside for a few hours and obviously, it got snatched. Well, he was looking around for it for hours and had no idea where it was. They looked all around where we were surfing and in every closet of hour hotel, which took forever. Then my dad went to the foreign roomservice guy and said in his foreign accent
"Yo man my son is upstairs crying cause he lost his surfboard here's 50$ can you find it for him?"
Then like 15mins later the surfboard appeared. The roomservice guy called all his friends, who obviously like to steal **** too, ans then they found the board. Basically it woodv been to much of a hassle for whoever snagged it to steal the board, then go somewhere else to sell it, and it would take a lot of time. Not to mention he coodve lost his job.
So back to your story, there's a whole underground blackmarket of people steaing stuff and they all probably know each other, whether they are friends or not. and If you offer some $, the board will be more likely to turn up then if you don't. And stewarts dumb for leaving his board outside in hawaii for half the day.

What is a Medical Model?
A theory of drug abuse or addiction in which the addiction is seen as a medical, rather than as a social problem.
Explanations and Other Terms Related to Medical Model
Medical model is a term in psychology which is the view that abnormal behavior is the result of physical problems and should be treated medically.
Addiction Treatment - Medical Model
Addiction treatment for primary drug and alcohol abuse, along with associated disorders caused by them involves intense rehabilitation (including intervention) and proven therapy methods. Structured in a way, such that all activities and time is focused on recovery, this process ensures eradication of negative behavior from drug abuse or alcohol addiction.
Primary treatment also known as residential treatment is to help individuals discover and find solutions to problems that have troubled them. These primary treatment programs have worked integrally to foster an environment equipped for the recovery process of individuals suffering from drug or alcohol addiction. Experienced staff, which are professionally trained including psychologists, nurses, and therapists provide the safest setting possible for recovery from addiction.
Selecting a fully licensed and accredited treatment center is very important. All of our listed substance abuse recovery resources on RecoveryNowTV are licensed and certified in the field of primary treatment of alcohol abuse and drug addiction. These programs offers a very structured and in many instances a unique therapy process to the client that enables them to focus on the initial causes of their addictions. They understand that each client is different and has different needs and issues. They also work to address those issues in daily educational groups and with one on one private sessions with a licensed staff member.
Long Term Recovery - Outpatient Programs and Other Support
According to the Centers for Disease Control, "Individuals need to be engaged in treatment for an adequate length of time. For example, participation in outpatient or residential programs for less than 90 days is of limited or no effectiveness."
Outpatient programs provide clients with more freedom of movement (unlike in residential programs) which allows them to maintain a regular commitment to family, work, and educational responsibilities. Outpatient drug and alcohol treatment programs share many similarities with residential treatment programs, but in a differently structured environment.
Support groups
It is suggested for many former clients to regularly attend support group meetings with other members who share their particular recovery problem. This can be a 12-step meeting, religious/spiritual group or medically supervised setting. It is in this spirit that members often identify themselves along with an admission of their problem.

CrunchBang worth more than just a test run
Next up: OSCON. Get there if you can, and give them my regards because I can't make it this year 😦
Those of you who read these hallowed pages know I have an affinity for distros that — how can I put this tactfully? — are unique and can be arguably considered as "boutique" or specialized distributions. While others may consider them as such, I don't necessarily see them that way — I liken them to modified distros in the same way a Shelby Cobra is a step above a mere Ford Mustang, with the proviso of course that ultimately, like the Shelby, they're not for everyone.
When I test these distros — as I did recently with Kororaa and Bodhi (not to mention the BlueBubble spin of Fedora 15 that Juan Rodriguez built from the ground up, nearly single-handedly) — I generally put them through their paces and, until I update them, I don't use them on a regular basis despite the fact they remain on the laptops they're tested on. Generally after the review consisting of a day or two of use, I go back to my old trusty Fedora for daily digital duties.
However, I'm on my fourth day of using CrunchBang — also known in shorthand as #! — and, for once, the temptation to use it for longer that the simple "test drive" is overwhelming, to the point where it's completely feasible that I may be using this for quite awhile.
The last time I had an opportunity to use the words "crunch" and "bang" in the same sentence, I was describing how an old pickup truck had run a red light and, not seeing it thanks to traffic in the left lane, I ran into it with my Volkswagen Jetta last January.
Yet for those of you keeping score at home, there's nothing close to resembling a crash here. CrunchBang, so says its home page, "is a Debian GNU/Linux based distribution offering a great blend of speed, style and substance. Using the nimble Openbox window manager, it is highly customisable (Editor's Note: That British English for "customizable") and provides a modern, full-featured GNU/Linux system without sacrificing performance."
Without sacrificing performance — let me emphasize this for a moment, because when I first used CrunchBang, running the ThinkPad T30 from a USB stick, the performance from the live media was the fastest I've ever experienced from live media. I'll give credit to the Openbox desktop atop the Debian Squeeze for that. Further, installing it on a hard drive and running it for the last few days, the speed with which this old T30 runs is nothing short of remarkable.
For the uninitated, the Openbox desktop can take a little getting used to, with navigation being a little different than some of the other, more common desktop environments. But what you give up in lacking familiarity (albeit temporarily) you get back with speed and efficiency — I would go out on a limb and assume that the processor temperature never going over 50 has to do with the fact that the ThinkPad's not breaking a sweat thanks to the lighter desktop.
One of the features that I found astounding in CrunchBang was that the VLC Media Player, for the first time, actually worked on this old Thinkpad; I've never been able to get it to run on other distros. I watched part of "Mr. Baseball" on a laptop which had never shown a DVD before. Also, CrunchBang comes with Chromium as a web browser, with Flash support — this may not appeal to some free-as-in-freedom software advocates, but for those who absolutely, positively must have their YouTube and other Flash-driven sites, it saves those users from having to set it up themselves.
A deal-breaker that became a deal-maker: The only quirk it took awhile to overcome was not being able — at least immediately — to replace OpenOffice.org with LibreOffice. There are workarounds outlined on the CrunchBang forums, however the way I did it was to follow the instructions on the forum regarding changing a Debian repository and changing Synaptic to "Download from : Server for United States."
CrunchBang is probably not for the neophyte, but if you've been using GNU/Linux and FOSS for about a year or longer and you are comfortable tweaking your system, you should have no trouble getting up to speed on this quick distro. The site does have a caveat on the "about page" at the bottom that "CrunchBang Linux is not recommended for anyone needing a stable system or anyone who is not comfortable running into occasional, even frequent breakage. CrunchBang Linux could possibly make your computer go CRUNCH! BANG! Therefore CrunchBang Linux comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by applicable law."
I think the lawyers made them say that, because after four days of tweaking, some of which not exactly the most advised (but nonetheless corrected), I have yet to make it go "CRUNCH! BANG!" In fact, I think I may keep the drive with this distro installed in the ThinkPad for awhile for use on a daily basis.
Finally, the naming convention for CrunchBang does not escape mention: Currently, CrunchBang is based on Debian Squeeze — keep that letter S in mind — and the name for the current CrunchBang version is Statler, as in Waldorf and Statler, the two elderly gentlemen in the balcony on "The Muppet Show."
CrunchBang is one of the more pleasant surprises on the Linux distro scene, and it's clearly worth a test drive. Or more.

The only bars i go to are Arm Bars, Knee Bars and a Mars Bar
Nope, you can't trust ANYONE. People are NO DAMN GOOD! Do you have children? Have you considered loading a BB Gun with hard candy, hiding in different places, and shooting him in the ass everytime he walks out his door? Perhaps have the rest of the street do so as well? Maybe you can get him to move away.
"The statement below is true.
The statement above is false."
Or just get a gun and shoot him.
theres a converted chapel across the road from my house that we found out was being used by the probation services to house scum when released from prision and couldnt go back to their own area due to the convictions they had. three pedos (that we knew of) and numerous smackheads they placed there. needless to say none stayed to long as we "persuaded" them to leave. but the cheek of it. move them so someone elses kids are safe but fuck my kids.
I know how you feel mate; this guy here was a friend of mine and was part of the group I go out with, socially; just 2 days before this story broke, he was out with me and my mates and we were chatting about my recovery from my broken ankle.
I'd never have guessed.
its not as uncommon as you think this sort of thing...
We had a neighbour - 2 doors away on a new estate. Noticed police slowly patrolling outside on a regular basis, then a van parked down the road with hidden cams monitoring his house for a while.
Then one day about 8 police entered the house and left hours later with a van full of his stuff, pcs, boxes etc all bagged up.
a few months later found out he and his wife were part of a pedo ring and had been under 'watch' for near a year and a half!
They only got busted as 'another' new case came to light. Police had known about them for ages though.
i have kids, as do most of the neighbors and the family in question were moved in (housing association type house) while still under investigation.
I know someone involved with the case and was only told about it as we were so close. Otherwise, we wouldnt have been told about them until they went to prison.
Wouldn't be surprised if we end up with 'vigilante' groups on the rise in this country. Police are next to useless in most cases.
Problem with these Vigilante groups, don't they get it wrong half the time and end up battering innocent people? Also wasn't there a pediatrician was attacked because the mob did not know what a pediatrician was, lol! Then again that's Sun readers for you.
In the area I grew up in people who have been proven to be abusing kids, attacking women, robbing houses etc are known to "disappear"
small town mentality though, people round that way look after each other

Thats how it should be Romeoblood, i dont class the sentences they receive as justice. Vigilante justice CAN go wrong, of course it can. However it shouldn't if its done properly, Especially not when they've been convicted in a court of law. They shouldn't even send them to jail because they protect them too much in their. chemically (or surgically) castrate them, and give them to the crowd outside the court room. Or the neighbourhood they're from, Id be too happy to show them what i thought of them. It could be like a hobby.
How you expect to run with the wolves come night when you spend all day sparring with the puppies
police can't tell communties that there are paedophiles in the area - that would compromise the safety of the paedophiles...
it's nice to know that if you amass a collection of 25000 indecent images of children, you get a slap on the wrist and walk free...

PURCHASE, NY -- PepsiCo posted declines in profit and revenue in the second quarter, hit by the stronger U.S. dollar and beverage refranchising transactions in China and Mexico.
Second-quarter income was $1.49 billion, or 94¢ a share, down 21% from $1.89 billion, or $1.17 per share, a year earlier. Revenue fell 2% to $16.5 billion from $16.83 billion.
As a result of a strong dollar, sales in other countries translate into fewer dollars for PepsiCo back home, as it takes more local currency to buy a dollar. PepsiCo's second-quarter performance was also hit by new partnerships with local beverage companies in China and Mexico to distribute its drinks, since revenue is now recorded by those companies.
Higher prices helped organic sales rise 5%. PepsiCo Americas Foods' organic revenue rose 7%, while PepsiCo Americas Beverages' organic revenue increased 2%.
Price increases were met by slower volume in the company's Americas beverage business, which fell 1%. Frito-Lay volume in North America was also flat.
PepsiCo's Europe business posted organic revenue growth of 3%.
PepsiCo boosted its advertising spending by more than 40% in the U.S. in the latest quarter compared with a year earlier, including the launch of its first global campaign for Pepsi-Cola.
The Purchase, NY, company is also seeking to boost sales by moving into new categories. It recently started selling yogurt in the U.S. under a joint venture with German dairy company Theo Muller Group. | SEE STORY

An advertisement for Quincy, Ill., boasts that the city has 3,665 buildings on the National Register of Historic Places. "Enough said," the ad simply states. Clearly, this town of 40,655 people is proud of its historic character, advertising as it does in a national magazine.
The ad goes on to encourage viewers to "Call for your free self-guided driving tour guide + Upass (free admittance to all city museums)." All?
Within the Redlands city limits are at least four museums - the U.S. Postal Museum in the post office on Brookside Avenue, the privately held Historical Glass Museum on North Orange Street, the San Bernardino County Museum and the Asistencia, a branch of the San Bernardino County Museum.
How many buildings does Redlands have listed on the National Register?
Because Redlands has the Historic and Scenic Preservation Ordinance, almost all listed buildings and sites are published in the city's list of Historic Resources, updated to December 2010 and available at the Development Services Department. The document lists two nationally listed districts and several individual buildings or sites.
In all, 417 buildings or sites are recognized by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, a national organization under Congressional Charter, signed into law by President Truman in 1949 to provide support and encouragement for grass-roots preservation efforts, according to the National Trust website.
To be listed, a building or site must meet one of several criteria, including significance to national history, but more importantly, significance to local and regional history. Most of Redlands' listed buildings meet that criterion.
In Redlands, the Smiley Park Historic District alone includes 383 buildings and one site. This district (which overlaps the city's own Historic Districts 1, 3, 5 and 9) includes parts of West Vine Street, Olive Avenue, Clark Street, Fern Avenue, Home Place, Buena Vista Street, Parkwood Avenue, Alvarado Street, Grant Street, Fourth Street and Eureka Street.
The Santa Fe Depot District, which has 23 buildings within its limits, includes structures on North Orange Street, Oriental Avenue, Stuart Avenue, Third Street and Eureka Street.
The districts become important to a community when the structures taken together present a context that reflects the community's heritage. Whether residential or commercial, Redlands' two nationally registered historic districts exemplify the city's distinguishing character.
Of the 10 individual structures or sites on the National Register, two are houses - the Fisk-Burgess house on West Fern Avenue and the Auerbacher house on Sierra Vista Drive. For different reasons, neither of these houses is included in the city's listings.
Public buildings include the U.S. post office on Brookside Avenue, the Lincoln Memorial Shrine and the A.K. Smiley Public Library. Kimberly Crest House and Gardens, managed by the private Kimberly-Shirk Association, is included, as are the privately owned commercial buildings, the Barton House on Nevada Street, and the Academy of Music Building and the trolley car barn, both on East Citrus Avenue. The only individually listed site is the Mill Creek Zanja, all 12 miles of it. According to the records, the listing in the California List of Historic Landmarks happened in the 1930s and on the national register in the 1970s.
While a listing provides a building or site and the city of Redlands with a certain amount of cachet, it means nothing when the building's welfare is at stake. Many cases have been documented of a nationally listed building being demolished with no mitigation.
The cachet, however, carries value, as Quincy, Ill., illustrates.

Would He Ever Announce It? Obamic Options 007
posted at 7:03 am on February 8, 2010 by Dafydd ab Hugh
Today's episode of Obamic Options is somewhat a corollary to Obamic Options 4, linked at the end. The explosion of the gas pipe in Middletown, CT triggered my cerebral susurration, as my thoughts softly whispered, but what if it was…?
The Connecticut blast appears to have been entirely accidental:
An explosion blew apart a power plant under construction as workers purged natural gas lines Sunday, killing at least five people and injuring a dozen or more in a blast that shook homes for miles, officials said.
But let's postulate, for sake of debate on the response of President Baracjk HY. Obama to future events, that a similar blast occurs; but in this future hypothetical case, the evidence is fairly strong that it was an actual jihadist terrorist attack.
Today's Obamic conundrum is quite simple: In such a case, would the president ever allow that conclusion to be broadcast to the general public? Or would he institute a massive cover-up to make it appear as though it was just an accident?
Please note, I'm not covertly hinting that this particular explosion was anything other than a bone-fide accident; I really think that's all it was. My question is purely a premonitory… if a devastating explosion on American soil in the future is determined by the FBI to be an act of terrorism, and if it can only be attributed to a militant Islamist — not to a crazed George W. Bush supporter — would B.O. allow that conclusion to be broadcast?
Or would he attempt, successfully or un-, to suppress it… say, in order to avoid an "anti-Moslem backlash?"
I honestly cannot say whether he would allow us, the people, to know the score; and that makes me very nervous indeed.
A desultory, semi-cardioided search discloses a few other samples of this decadent derision:

- Obamic Options 002: The Limits of Tolerance of Pinkos
- Another Noble Obamic Musing – Obamic Options 003

Interim LSU Public Hospital Receives Commission on Cancer Accreditation with Commendation
New Orleans -- The Commission on Cancer (CoC) of the American College of Surgeons (ACoS) has granted three-year accreditation with commendation to the teaching hospital cancer program at Interim LSU Public Hospital in New Orleans, La.
The accreditation program, a component of the CoC, sets quality-of-care standards for cancer programs and reviews programs to ensure they conform to those standards. The CoC gives accreditation only to those facilities that have voluntarily committed to providing the highest level of quality cancer care and that undergo a rigorous evaluation process and review of their performance. To maintain accreditation, facilities with CoC-accredited cancer programs must undergo an on-site review every three years.
A facility receives a three-year accreditation with commendation following the on-site evaluation by a physician surveyor during which the facility demonstrates a commendation level of compliance with one or more standards that represent the full scope of the cancer program (cancer committee leadership, cancer data management, clinical services, research, community outreach, and quality improvement). A facility also receives a compliance rating for all other standards.
The core functions of the CoC include setting standards for quality, multidisciplinary cancer patient care; surveying facilities to evaluate compliance with the 36 CoC standards; collecting standardized and quality data from accredited facilities; and using the data to develop effective educational interventions to improve cancer care outcomes at the national, state, and local level.
Receiving care at a CoC-accredited cancer program ensures that a patient will have access to the following:
Established in 1922 by the American College of Surgeons, the CoC is a consortium of professional organizations dedicated to improving survival rates and quality of life for cancer patients through standard-setting, prevention, research, education, and the monitoring of comprehensive, quality care. Its membership includes Fellows of the American College of Surgeons and 42 national organizations that reflect the full spectrum of cancer care.
Through an exclusive partnership with the American Cancer Society, the CoC provides the public with information on the resources, services, and cancer treatment experience for each CoC-accredited cancer program. This information is available at the American Cancer Society's website at www.cancer.org and its National Cancer Information Center at l-8OO-ACS-2345.

I just completed this for my niece who is having a baby girl in April. I agree with the other review, it was at times difficult to follow and was unclear on how to join each row. It did turn out beautiful and my niece is very happy with it, but honestly, the skirt part looks nothing like the picture.

I find this pattern to be quite difficult to follow even though it has written as well as graph directions. It is unclear how to join properly and I get lost in the graph. Sorry. I really wanted to make this pretty little dress but I don't have the time to try to figure the pattern out.

What's New In Recycling
The City and BCRS have established a new composting program which was phased in during the summer of 2012. With the new program, food scraps and greencycle, now called composting, will be collected every week. You can put food scraps of all kinds including soiled paper and napkins into it. As a part of the agreement, BCRS offers residents several sizes of toters and special kitchen pails. Read all about the details of the program by clicking here.
The Sustainability Commission awarded its Green Business of the Year plaque to AlterECO. AlterECO is an outstanding member of the Sausalito community specializing in bamboo cabinetry. AlterECO™ creates unique and beautiful custom bamboo cabinets built to high standards of craftsmanship, utility and sustainability. As pioneers in modern bamboo cabinetry, their ecological design principles have been at the heart and soul of their work from day one. Bamboo has aesthetic appeal, structural integrity, and environmental benefits. AlterECO works from an innovative palette that includes a variety of sustainable materials. The beauty and character of the bamboo, wood, and natural composite materials they use are enhanced by premium quality low or zero VOC finishes--helping to assure a healthier indoor environment. If you have a green business in mind that should be honored, or E-mail The Wiz.
The Commission is considering a single-use bag ordinance, and a ban on portable gas-fueled gardening tools. We are working with activists, the City and our neighboring cities to develop programs that will have the least possible impact on residents and businesses while, at the same time, reducing the environmental impact of these problems. We welcome your input. Just drop by one of our meetings or E-mail The Wiz.
Help us Raise our Recycling Rate
We want to make it as convenient and economical as possible for you. As in all California cities, we must recycle everything possible to avoid stiff, State-mandated, penalties, and to minimize the use of expensive, unfriendly, landfills. In recent years, Marin increased our waste-to-the-dump ratio to over 65%. However, Sausalito is still not doing its share. With your help, we can do our part. The rules are fairly simple and sensible. Read them in the Recycling Details or go to our special Recycling Reminder Card and print it. We update our web pages several times a year.

Washington • President Barack Obama decided in the end that the time and political capital necessary to secure the nomination of U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice as his next secretary of state would be better spent elsewhere.
Rice withdrew her name from consideration for the top State Department post Thursday after informing administration officials the previous evening of her intent to do so.
The decision was hers, senior administration officials said. But Obama, who pledged to defend her vigorously just five weeks ago, did not try to talk one of his most-favored candidates out of it.
His decision to accept her withdrawal served as an acknowledgment that even a president fresh from reelection has only a limited amount of political latitude in a still-sharply partisan Washington.
Obama has only a few weeks to negotiate a year-end deal with congressional Republicans to avert the "fiscal cliff." And with two years left to make his mark before lame-duck status begins to set in, he plans to move quickly on immigration reform and perhaps climate-change legislation that could help define his legacy.
A prolonged fight over Rice's nomination would have interrupted those plans - perhaps for only a few weeks, but perhaps for far longer given the bad blood such fights have stirred up in the past.
As partisan criticism mounted in recent weeks, White House officials were informed by Senate Democrats that, while Rice's nomination would probably succeed in the end, it would come at a steep political cost to the rest of his agenda.
"I think it was more in this particular instance a decision about whether to have another significant distraction and partisan fight amid a lot of other priorities," said a senior administration official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity in order to discuss personnel issues. "Now it's one less log on the fire."
Rice alluded to the likely fight and the threat it posed to Obama's broader agenda in her letter to the president Thursday, in which she also said that "the position of Secretary of State should never be politicized."
But for Obama, a famously cool politician who rarely lets emotion intervene in decisions, the Rice episode provoked anger and, in the end, a sense of resignation over how little Washington has been altered by the recent election.
In his post-victory news conference last month, Obama challenged Senate Republicans critical of Rice to come after him instead, saying that "when they go after the U.N. ambassador, apparently because they think she's an easy target, then they've got a problem with me."
"And should I choose, if I think that she would be the best person to serve America in the capacity of the State Department, then I will nominate her," Obama said. "That's not a determination that I've made yet."
Rice had emerged as the face of the administration's inconsistent response to the Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. mission in Benghazi, Libya, in which Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three other Americans were killed.
In mid-October, Rice said on Sunday news programs that the attack appeared to have arisen spontaneously from public demonstrations sweeping the Middle East over a video disparaging the prophet Muhammad. Those remarks, which came from White House-approved "talking points," have since been challenged by evidence indicating that the attack was planned and carried out by members of al-Qaida in North Africa.
Republican Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, John McCain of Arizona and Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire asserted that Rice is unqualified to head the State Department because of what they alleged was a misleading account.
There was a sense Thursday inside the administration of anger and disappointment - as much over the way Rice had been treated as over her withdrawal from consideration.
White House officials say Obama had yet to settle on a replacement for departing Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. But he had narrowed his choices to Rice and Sen. John Kerry, the Massachusetts Democrat who heads the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and who is now considered likely to receive the nomination.
"He certainly accepted the logic that another major distraction at this point would disrupt not only our domestic agenda but also our foreign policy plans," said the senior administration official.
"But I think he's angry at the way that Susan Rice was targeted for partisan attacks related to something that she essentially had no responsibility for - namely, the intelligence assessment and security at the mission in Benghazi," the official added.
Administration officials say Kerry, who played the part of Mitt Romney in Obama's debate preparation this year, is an ally who has supported the president's foreign policy agenda. Kerry is not as personally close to Obama as Rice is, but several White House officials said he is trusted.
Many Democrats on Capitol Hill have made clear, in private, that they prefer Kerry as the next secretary of state, according to several senators and aides who requested anonymity to speak freely about the president's choice.
Some worried that the fallout from the Benghazi attack could have turned Rice's nomination into the first tough vote of the 2014 election season. Others were more concerned about having to fight for Rice as Obama also pressured Republicans to accept higherupper-end tax rates as part of a broad deficit-reduction deal.
"She could be confirmed," said a second senior administration official, "but at a high cost."

Ankle sprain - aftercareLateral ankle sprain - aftercare; Medial ankle sprain - aftercare; Medial ankle injury - aftercare; Ankle syndesmosis sprain -aftercare; Syndesmosis injury - aftercare; ATFL injury - aftercare; CFL injury- aftercare
Ligaments are strong, flexible tissues that attach your bones to one another. They keep your joints stable and help them move in the right ways.
An ankle sprain occurs when the ligaments in your ankle are stretched or torn.
More about Your Injury
There are 3 grades of ankle sprains:·
- Grade I sprains: Your ligaments are stretched. It is a mild injury that can improve with some light stretching.
- Grade II sprains: Your ligaments are partially torn.You may need to wear a splint or a cast.
- Grade III sprains: Your ligaments are fully torn.You will often need surgery for this severe injury.
These last 2 kinds of sprains are often associated with tearing or rupturing of small blood vessels. This allows blood to leak into tissues and cause black and blue discoloration. The blood may not appear for several days, and it is usually absorbed from the tissues within 2 weeks.
If your sprain is more severe:
- You may feel strong pain and have a lot of swelling.
- You may not be able to walk, or walking may be painful.
Some ankle sprains may become chronic (long-lasting). If this happens to you, your ankle may continue to be:
- Painful and swollen
- Weak or "give way" easily
What to Expect
Your health care provider may order an x-ray to look for a bone fracture, or an MRI scan to look for an injury to the ligament.
To help your ankle heal, your health care provider may treat you with a brace, a cast, or a splint, and may give you crutches to walk on. You may be asked to place only part or none of your weight on the bad ankle.
You can decrease swelling by:
- Resting and not putting weight on your foot
- Elevating your foot on a pillow at or above the level of your heart
Apply ice every hour while you are awake, 20 minutes at a time and covered by a towel or bag, for the first 24 hours after the injury. After the first 24 hours, apply ice 20 minutes 3 - 4 times per day. Do not apply ice directly to your skin. You should wait at least 30 minutes in between ice applications.
Pain medicines, such as ibuprofen or naproxen, may help to ease pain and swelling. You can buy these medications without a prescription.
- Do not use these drugs for the first 24 hours after your injury. They may increase the risk of bleeding.
- Talk with your health care provider before using these medicines if you have heart disease, high blood pressure, kidney disease, liver disease, or have had stomach ulcers or internal bleeding in the past.
- Do not take more than the amount recommended on the bottle or more than your health care provider advises you to take. Carefully read the warnings on the label before taking any medication.
During the first 24 hours after your injury you may take acetaminophen (Tylenol and others) if your health care provider tells you it is safe to do so. People with liver disease should not take this medication.
Getting Active
The pain and swelling of an ankle sprain usually gets better within 48 hours. After that, you can begin to put weight back on your injured foot.
- Put only as much weight on your foot as is comfortable at first. Slowly work your way up to your full weight.
- If your ankle begins to hurt, stop and rest.
Your health care provider will give you exercises to strengthen your foot and ankle. Doing these exercises can help prevent future sprains and chronic ankle pain.
For less severe sprains, you may be able to go back to your normal activities after a few days. For more severe sprains, it may take several weeks.
Talk to your health care provider before returning to more intense sports or work activities.
When to Call the Doctor
You should call your doctor if you notice any of the following:
- You cannot walk, or walking is very painful.
- The pain does not get better after ice, rest, and pain medicine.
- Your ankle does not feel any better after 5 - 7 days.
- Your ankle continues to feel weak or gives away easily.
- Your ankle is increasingly discolored (red or black and blue), or it becomes numb or tingly.

Twin brothers of separate mothers
One of us is a battle tested, recently retired career Army man who is a veteran of Operation Desert Storm. The other is a former peace and social justice activist with portfolio who rose through the Green Party's California ranks before taking up FOSS evangelism with a vengance.
One of us lives in Texas, where the stars at night are big and bright (clap four times here), while the other lives on the Central California coast, where — and it's a law, I think — every sentence must end with the word " . . . dude."
One of us swears by KDE, the other prefers GNOME but really has an affinity for Xfce. One of us calls the operating system "Linux" out of laziness. The other makes a point of referring to it as "GNU/Linux" because the "GNU should get its due."
Ken Starks and I have our differences. I would be willing to bet he doesn't think Texas cheated in the Rose Bowl when they beat USC for the national championship a year ago (they did), nor do I think he would agree with me that the former Texas governor cheated in the 2000 election to win the presidency (he did ). Ken grew up a Cubs fan — anyone who knows me knows how much I detest the Cubs ('89 NLCS, anyone?) — but he now follows the Houston Astros, while I live and die, mostly die, with the San Francisco Giants.
Yet it's safe to say that Ken and I are united in one thing: Promoting Linux (as he'd say) in the home desktop/laptop and small business environment; that, and making sure everyone knows they have FOSS options to their proprietary computing experience.
My introduction to Ken — I haven't actually met him in person yet — came after what I thought was a slight in a Blog of Helios of one of my heroes, Abbie Hoffman. Yes, for those of you keeping score at home, Ken is the ever-outspoken helios. He and I started exchanging e-mails afterward, discussing — among other things — how to get GNU/Linux (thank you) in front of everyday people who would benefit from being out from under the thumb of Microsoft's monopoly.
A result of these discussions is our partnership in HeliOS Solutions, where I do what he does in Texas on the West Coast, down to initiating a Komputers4Kids program in Felton. Another result is the project called Lindependence 2008, which we had discussed ad nauseum starting late last summer and had refined through the fliter of The Tux Project in the meantime.
So if you were to tell me a few years ago that I'd be teaming up with a Army vet on a project to save the digital realm for FOSS, I would have laughed myself into a new pair of underwear. If you were to tell Ken that he'd be teaming up with a tree-hugging, pony-tailed hippie, he'd probably have the same reaction.
Yet here we are, and that's where we should be: United for the operating system, whatever we choose to call it, and united for the promotion of FOSS programs that work as well, and in some cases better, than proprietary software it should replace.
If our partnership is a testament to anything, it shows that promoting GNU/Linux and FOSS transcends background, upbringing and politics. In fact, it even transcends sports in general and, as much as I hate to admit it, baseball in particular.
(And, Ken, Texas did too cheat in the Rose Bowl . . . )
(Larry Cafiero runs HeliOS Solutions West in Felton, California, and is an associate member of the Free Software Foundation.)

Well, you are licensed to call it anything you like. Because in the end, only one thing matters.

I'm definitely closer to your political stances than Ken's.
I do tend to prefer the term GNU/Linux over Linux for the sake of accuracy, though i reckon that it is not an appealing brand name 🙂
However, like Ken, i prefer KDE over GNOME on the desktop front.
Finally, in spite of our ideological gap, i find most of Ken's promotional work inspirational.
Regardless of "credo" (and cradle), there's a place for all sorts of "configurations" in the common cause we have embraced.
May 7, 2008 at 8:45 am
Gotta love it!
In the midst of naysayers and accusers, Linux advocacy needs to still trudge on. It's like trying to shut out Tokyo Rose when someone comes up with a good idea and others, who really aren't going to lift a finger anyway, want to trounce all over it.
Keep up the good fight, guys!

Too bad this championship couldn't have been a two out of three series like in baseball…

Dry mouth
Some cancer treatments and medicines can cause dry mouth.
Symptoms you may have:
- Your saliva will be thick and stringy.
- You may have cuts or cracks in your lips or at the corners of your mouth.
- Your dentures may no longer fit well. This may cause sores on your gums.
- You will be thirsty.
- It may be hard to swallow and talk.
- You may lose your sense of taste.
- Your tongue and mouth may feel sore.
You may get mouth sores, mouth pain, cavities (dental caries), or gum disease.
Take Care of Your Mouth
Brush your teeth and gums 2 or 3 times a day for 2 - 3 minutes each time. Use a toothbrush with soft bristles.
- When you brush, rinse your brush in hot water every 30 seconds to keep the bristles soft.
- Let your toothbrush air dry between brushings.
- Choose toothpaste with care.
If toothpaste makes your mouth sore, brush with a solution of 1 teaspoon of salt mixed with 4 cups of water. Pour a small amount into a clean cup to dip your toothbrush into each time you brush. Use toothpaste with fluoride.
Floss gently 1 time a day. Rinse your mouth 5 or 6 times a day. Use any of these solutions when you rinse:
- 1 teaspoon of salt in 4 cups of water
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda in 1 cup (8 ounces) of water
- ½ teaspoon salt and 2 tablespoons baking soda in 4 cups of water
Avoid rinses that have alcohol in them. You may use an antibacterial rinse 2 - 4 times a day for gum disease. Rinse for 1 - 2 minutes each time.
Do not eat foods or drinks that have a lot of sugar in them. They may cause tooth decay. Use lip care products to keep your lips from drying out and cracking. Sip water to ease mouth dryness.
Eating sugar-free candy or chewing sugar-free gum may also help.
Talk with your dentist about:
- Solutions to replace minerals in your teeth
- Saliva substitutes
- Drugs that help your salivary glands make more saliva
You need to eat enough protein and calories from other foods to keep your weight up. See also: Eating extra calories when you need them - adults
Tips to make eating easier:
- Choose foods that you like.
- Serve foods with gravy, broths, or sauces to make them easier to chew and swallow.
- Eat small meals, and eat more often.
- Cut your food into small pieces to make it easier to chew.
- Ask your health care provider or dentist if artificial saliva might help you.
Drink at least 8 - 10 glasses of liquid each day (not including coffee, tea, or other drinks that have caffeine).
- Drink liquids with your meals.
- Sip cool drinks during the day.
- Keep a glass of water next to your bed at night. Drink when you get up to use the bathroom or other times you wake up.
Ask your health care provider about liquid food supplements. These can help you meet your energy needs.
Avoid alcoholic drinks. They will bother your throat. Also avoid foods that are very spicy, have a lot of acid or are very hot or cold.
If pills are hard to swallow, try crushing them with some ice cream or another soft food. Ask your health care provider if it is okay to crush your pills. Some pills do not work if they are crushed.

Fotonovela as a Research Tool in Image-Based Participatory Research with Immigrant Children
In this article the authors explore the effect of word-image relationships on the collection of data and the reporting of research results for a study involving the development of a series of fotonovelas with immigrant children in an inner-city school. The central question explored in this article is Can experiences such as producing visual narratives in the form of fotonovelas stimulate multiple expressions of voice and position and bring awareness of embodied ways of communicating in a culture-rich school context? The processes involved in collaboratively developing the photographic narrative format of the fotonovela combine visual elements and structures and embodied, reflective performance together with written text. As a research method fotonovela does not merely translate verbal into visual representations but constructs a hybrid photo-image-text that opens new spaces for dialogue, resistance, and representation of a new way of knowing that changes the way of seeing and has the potential to change the author's and the reader's self-understanding.

With only five points representing the biggest lead of the game, Monday's Class 5A playoff opener between the Riverton and Brighton's girls' basketball teams would come down to poise under pressure.
Riverton's senior leadership calmed whatever nerves it had.
The Silverwolves outscored the Bengals 14-6 over the final 3:37 and held on to prevail 54-50 at Salt Lake Community College. Brighton, which had won several close games this season, committed 29 turnovers for the game.
"We stuck together as a team," Riverton's Mallory Bostic said. "You have to be prepared for both situations winning and losing. Turnovers can make a difference, and luckily, we didn't have as many as Brighton."
While neither team was able to pull away, Riverton's defense on Brighton's top two players Maddy Chin and Lindsey Johnson was stellar. Chin scored 18 points, but 14 came in one quarter, while Johnson had only seven points.
"The main thing was to keep Chin below her average," Riverton coach Ron Ence said. "She got her points, but didn't dominate. The girls kept their composure and got a couple of buckets at the end. Every high school team depends on senior leadership, and it counted when it mattered most."
The Bengals did their best to slow the tempo. However, errant passes and other untimely decisions threw a wrench into those plans. Riverton capitalized on its opportunities, as six different players each scored at least five points.
"They burned us inside so we had to do other things to make up for it," Ence said. "[Brighton] knew exactly what they needed to do. Both teams played well enough to win. We're realists; you play well and it doesn't matter your seeding."
McCall Christensen's free throw gave Brighton a 44-40 lead late in the fourth quarter before Riverton answered with five quick points, all by Whitney Saunders. Tiena Afu's basket put the Silverwolves ahead to stay at 47-46.
Still, Brighton had a chance at the end. Chin's basket pulled the Bengals within 51-50 with four seconds left before Riverton closed out the win.
"It feels way good to win, especially because we were down," Bostic said. "The first [playoff game] is probably the hardest."
Saunders had 14 points and eight rebounds to lead Riverton. Afu finished with 10 points and Pume Currie had nine. Christensen had 13 points and six rebounds and Alyssa Hirschi had nine points and 13 boards for Brighton.

Selena Gomez celebrates 21st birthday with weekend of partying
Singer/actress Selena Gomez celebrated her 21st birthday in Los Angeles this weekend (20-21Jul13) by partying with pals Julianne Hough, Lily Collins and Ashley Benson. The Come & Get It hitmaker spent her Saturday night (20Jul13) at a star-studded 1920s-themed party hosted by fellow birthday girl Julianne Hough, who turned 25 at the weekend, before heading to Hollywood hotspot the Roosevelt Hotel with Collins.
She enjoyed her own small gathering on Sunday (21Jul13), the eve of her birthday, when she was joined by more than a dozen friends, who all donned party hats and treated her to tacos from American fast food restaurant Jack in the Box.
Gomez shared a photo of the festivities on Instagram.com, alongside the message, "Guess what… I'm 21. UM, turnupNOW… My cake was… Jack n the box (sic) tacos… Yes."
She also marked her big day on Monday (22Jul13) by posting a special message and video, featuring her song Birthday, on YouTube.com.
Directing fans to the promo, she wrote, "I wanted to celebrate my 21st Birthday with all of you, so we made this video for us all to celebrate to. Thank You for all the love and support you have shown and continue to show me. I love you all so much!!
"Thanks to all my amazing friends… Thanks to all my fans for being so amazing and making me want to make this video for you."
Meanwhile, Taylor Swift took to her Twitter.com page on Monday to send her best wishes to her pal, writing, "Happy 21st birthday to my friend, and the closest thing I've ever had to a sister, @selenagomez!"
Gomez's big day fell on the same day Britain's Prince William and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge welcomed their first child, a son.

Credentials Files
We suggest that students consider using Interfolio,an online system that streamlines the process of maintaining and sending references.
- Employers and graduate schools receive sensitive credentials information such as transcripts (official or unofficial), writing samples, letters of reference (confidential or open), examples of work, awards/certificates/proof of graduation, or other documents from applicants in a secure and convenient way.
- The process begins when an applicant visits the site and creates an account.
- Payment can be made by major credit card or other convenient methods.
Letters of Recommendation
Most graduate schools will require two or three letters of recommendation. Recommendations from faculty members are essential for academically-oriented programs; professional programs may seriously consider nonacademic recommendations from professionals in the field. Use this form to assist you with preparing to speak with a faculty member regarding a letter of recommendation.
It is important that the people you choose to write your recommendations know you well enough to compose a meaningful letter. Once you've identified likely candidates, make an appointment to talk with them. Explain your goals and why you've chosen the potential writer as one of your recommenders. Ask whether the person is able to write a strong letter for you. Bring materials such as a copy of your transcripts, a resume, your essay, and/or a copy of a research paper which will assist them in commenting on your strengths. If the school provides their own recommendation forms, be sure to bring them with you, along with stamped, addressed envelopes. NEVER put a request for a recommendation in a professor's mailbox without first having a conversation about your request.
Finally, it is your responsibility to ensure that your application is completed on time. It is always good advice to follow up with your recommenders to ensure that your letter has been submitted. Always write a thank you note to those who serve as recommenders.
Application Materials
Most application materials can be found on an institution's website. However, it is acceptable to contact the graduate school or program chair directly via telephone or email to request an application and/or course catalog. If writing, be certain to do so in a professional manner.
Keep track of what each institution and program requires to complete your admission file, as these requirements will vary. Note deadlines carefully. Most graduate school programs require application materials to be submitted between December and March for enrollment the following fall. Schools using a rolling application policy review applicants as they apply up until the deadline; in these cases, it is best to apply early.
Your Personal Statement or Essay
Most graduate and professional programs have a set of questions prepared for you to respond to in the form of an essay or personal statement. The essay should be a clear, succinct statement showing that you have a definite sense of what you want to do and enthusiasm for the field of study you have chosen. Your essay should reflect your writing abilities; more importantly, it should reveal the clarity, the focus, and the depth of your thinking. As the personal essay is a short piece, it is crucial that you organize your thoughts, and then refine, simplify, and polish your ideas. Be certain that your essay is neat, grammatically correct, and devoid of any errors. Be sure to ask faculty or an CCI adviser to critique your essay.
If the program to which you are applying does not ask you to answer specific questions, try to include the following basic elements in your personal statement:
- How did your interest in this area of study evolve? What has led you here to the point of applying for graduate school?
- What are your long-term career goals and how will this graduate education help you accomplish these? If you can frame it in terms of a personal vision or mission, even better.
- What experiences have you had or skills/traits do you possess that will make you successful in this program and in the career field? Don't forget to consider any publications or presentations at academic conferences or other academic, internship, work, or volunteer experiences that may be relevant or provide insight into who you are.
- Why are you applying to this particular school?

I would urge everyone to take a breath and think back to exactly this time four years ago.
A distraction—if not, perhaps, a breath of fresh air, exactly.
His breath became so strained that he was forced to quit his job as a horticulturalist for the parks department.
Interestingly, the novel is not punctuated once save for commas, and thus the reader might find himself unable to "take a breath."
Climbing stairs was difficult, he recalls, and he was easily fatigued and often out of breath.
Her voice broke here, but she caught her breath and went right on.
For one breath there was an appalling silence on the mountainside.
The breath was clearly the "element" the lack of which rendered the body inanimate.
"We get a share in all this," Clif heard one of them whisper under his breath.
It was as if they had all been holding their breath till the worst was over.
Old English bræð "odor, scent, stink, exhalation, vapor" (Old English word for "air exhaled from the lungs" was æðm), from Proto-Germanic *bræthaz "smell, exhalation" (cf. Old High German bradam, German Brodem "breath, steam"), from PIE root *gwhre- "to breathe, smell."
breath (brěth)
The air inhaled and exhaled in respiration.
A single respiration.

A shell border can be as simple as icing alone, or intersperse each icing shell with confetti sprinkles, candy-coated chocolates or other mini candies.
Starting at outer edge of flower, pipe shell with elongated tail towards center of flower. Repeat, adding additional petals. Add confetti sprinkle, icing dot, swirl or star flower center.
Two shells, when angled just right, make a fanciful icing heart.

Phillip Phillips sees red in his 'Raging Fire' music video
Listen to Phillip Phillips on iHeartRadio
Phillip Phillips becomes a human canvas in his brand new music video for "Raging Fire," the lead-in to his sophomore effort Behind The Light. The sweeping anthem is the backdrop to the images, which include towering buildings and a giant sidewalk painting.
The singer-songwriter, who will drop the new record on May 19, takes front and center. As he strums his guitar, he is rapidly transported to various locales: a bridge, a street corner, a subway car, a blank white canvas. It all serves to bolster the message of the song: living life. "Hold me close, and I'll surrender to your heart," he sings on the first verse. "You know how to give and how to take. You see every hope I locked away."
Later, he coos, "We live until we die."
As he continues to sing the poignant lyrics, his friends are seen painting around him on the paper. He looks up to the camera, delivering the powerful message. It progresses and finally he is covered in the vibrant red paint, in the middle of a glowing heart. He has become a raging fire, unafraid of the world around him. That's a pretty cool visual.
The new music follows on the platinum heels of his debut The World From The Side Of The Moon, which spawned the hits "Home" and "Gone, Gone, Gone." Despite not being nominated for a Grammy in 2013, he could very well set in motion awards success now. And we could not be more excited!

Serious questions are being raised about Labor's leadership team and why Opposition Leader Bill Shorten is allowing Deputy Leader Tanya Plibersek to launch Wayne Swan's book when it attacks former prime minister Kevin Rudd.
The shadow cabinet has been called to meet in Canberra on Monday, shortly after Mr Swan launches his book at the ANU, meaning frontbenchers can fly to the capital to attend and invoice taxpayers, if they wish.
Ms Plibersek defended her decision, saying through a spokesman that she is ''looking forward'' to launching ''Wayne's book'' because it highlights Labor's response to the financial crisis.
Extracts published over the weekend revealed the book by the former treasurer also attacks Mr Rudd's ''unstable personality'' and his ''vindictive and juvenile'' character. Labor frontbenchers and backbenchers fear it will reopen the bitter Rudd-Gillard wars just when the opposition has Treasurer Joe Hockey on the back foot.
One caucus source said Mr Shorten could not afford to let the last Labor government's infighting destroy the chances of a future one, invoking Paul Keating's one-time withering attack on John Hewson: ''Bill's a shiver looking for a spine to crawl up.''
But it is understood Mr Shorten has no issue with Ms Plibersek choosing to launch Mr Swan's book.
The government has seized on the renewed internal division within Labor. Cabinet Minister Christopher Pyne said it was proof ''the dysfunction from the Rudd-Gillard era is far from over'' and that ''Labor is always most comfortable when talking about itself''.
The opposition says it is a coincidence the shadow cabinet meeting is being held in Canberra on the same day. A spokesman for Mr Shorten said the meeting was ''locked in'' ''well before'' the launch date was known, and that Mr Shorten welcomed the telling of ''Wayne's story'' because he said it is one ''Labor is proud of and [a story] worth telling''.

Free Software Directory:Features/Installation instructions
This is one of the proposed features to this site.
The Premise
The idea is to give installation instructions for the fully free distributions of GNU/Linux. This requires that we get the program names for these packages and then write a template for each program. One of the benefits of this feature is that free distros would get attention this way.
- get package names from package databases on distro websites
- make a tab on package info pages and autogenerate installation instructions for each chosen distro using templates (based on package name)
- give generic build instructions (if possible, a link to a web-hosted Installation text file from the source package)
- link to source package download in the instructions
- list program/package version numbers for each distro on the installation tab?
- make an "installation instructions available" icon that shows up next to program name in browsing mode
Developing the feature
Right now, someone is needed to work on this. If you are interested, get in touch with sudoman or jgay by leaving a message on our talk pages, or on IRC (irc.freenode.net).

Hi i live in pottersbar is there any mma gyms in the area? many thanks
Hi i live in pottersbar is there any mma gyms in the area? many thanks
Lots to choose from in the area. Nothing springs to mind for Potters Bar.
You have Hemel Martial Arts in Kings Langley which is v close to M25 junc.
Crossface in Harrow, so straight down the A1 through edgware
Mill Hill BJJ
Gintas Combat in Watford
Team Titan are passed Enfield (i think)
There are a few really boxing and thai gyms in the area too
Commentator: CWFC, Kayo MMA, Shock n Awe. SAFE MMA. johngooden.co.uk @johngoodenuk
I'm from potters bar and have just come back from a few months there. there's a couple of lad who've set up basic mma classes in pb community centre. obviously its not great, but its not that bad a start if youre just wanting to get into things slowly and want something local on a wednesdaynight. i went to a couple to suss it out and it's ok for beginners looking to get fit and learn some basics.
obviously if you want a proper mma gym then you have to travel to one of the places mentioned above. easy enough to get a train from pb station into north london where there's a ton of great gyms too.
"The more you sweat in peace, the less you bleed in war"
I train with the Nibbana MMA guys at oakmere youth and community centre, as stated by London pride, it is a small class aimed at beginners and those of us who maybe on a budget and cant afford to travel into london four/five times a week.
Theres two MMA classes, 1BJJ, 1 nogi, classes on wed, fri,sat and sun and very reasonably priced.
Give us a shout if you want more info....

customer reviews for family room den
"Very pleased"
By Kari from NJ
We bought these blinds for our basement. They were very easy to install and look beautiful. They have a very high quality feel. I would definitely recommend these blinds to anyone.View this product
"Great quality"
By SDTim from Oceanside
The quality and ease of installation was better than expected. There is a little light that gets through on the small gap between the window frame and edge of the shade. Overall it blocks a TON of light. We love them. Size based on my measurements were very accurate. Great customer service!View this product

I installed backtrack 5 r3 32 gnome iso to my usb flash drive on my laptop (which is 32 bit system with win7 os) with the unetbootin exe. I went into bios and changed the boot settings to boot from usb. When it restarts it takes me to the unetbootin screen where it has the options (default/backtrack text/ backtrack no drm etc). I choose default and it just restarts and takes me back to the unetbootin screen.
I never had this problem with back track 3. Backtrack 3 just loads up fine. What am I doing wrong?

Hi i recently downloaded bt5 and i am running it from a cd i have a hp pavilion dv6 i used image burn to burn the .iso at 2.4X it boots to the menu fine but when i run the graphic interface it loads so far then my screen flickers and goes off but i can still hear the disc loading and doing stuff.
I have tried safe mode but graphic interface still does not work just the text version.
I did notice on one try in safe mode it froze and some on the lines said failed to load radeon firmware i have a redeon hd 5470 gpu so im guessing there is some kind of problem with bt5 loading with this gpu.
i have very limited experience with linux and bt5 but any ideas would be nice i know i can try using vmware but would like to see if i can sort this first.

Statement from Commissioner Patrick BrennanMayor's Office, Community Assistance:
I write to advise you that in the very near future, the City of New York will be publicly releasing recordings of additional telephone calls made on the morning of September 11, 2001. This release will supplement the City's March 2006 public release of recordings of telephone calls made on September 11, 2001. The release of these records is pursuant to the principles established by the New York Court of Appeals in its opinion concerning the public release of New York City Fire Department ("FDNY") records concerning September 11th; that Court opinion was described more fully in our March 2006 letter (copy linked below) concerning the earlier release. Of the additional telephone calls being released only ten are previously unreleased 911 calls made by civilians who were inside the World Trade Center and were seeking assistance. The overwhelming majority of the calls being released are not 911 calls at all, but are other kinds of calls recorded by the FDNY dispatch system.
To read the entire statement and related materials, click here.
FOS11 understands that the release of this kind of information as well as its use in the media may continue to heighten feelings and emotions in our membership and the general public. Take time to talk to family and friends about your feelings and if you need it, seek help. Click here for more support and wellness resources.

Your Weekly Update In The World Of Technology
That's Fast.
Google Fiber is finally here. What is Google Fiber, you ask? Earlier this week Google launched a fiber network offering internet speeds of up to 1 Gbps in Kansas City, Kansas. On top of that, they're offering the new high speed for only $70 a month. Both the speed and price tag beat out most traditional Internet Service Providers.
While the new internet speeds will not consistently run at 1 Gbps, many early users of Google Fiber are claiming constant speeds of around 600 to 700 Mbps over Ethernet and around 200 Mbps over a Wi-Fi connection.
Google Fiber is also providing more than just its super-speed internet connection. Don't want to pay $70 a month? Kansas City residents have the option of getting a 5 Mbps internet connection for free (that's $0). Of course, they have to pay around $300 for an installation fee, but that guarantees the ability to get the free internet for seven years. Google Fiber also has the option of adding a cable subscription for $50 more. The catch? The TV package is missing ESPN (I quit), TNT, and HBO.
It seems that people are liking Google Fiber in Kansas City so far. The question is, when will it come to your city?
Here's an interesting bit of news for you. For the first time ever, the amount of texting in the United States has gone down. Over the last quarter the average number of monthly texts sent has decreased to 675 per customer. The quarter before that showed an average amount of 700 per customer.
The reason for declining text messages can mostly likely be attributed to the rise in internet-connected devices. Instead of just texting, phones allow us to communicate and send messages in many different ways beyond the simple text message. In fact, nearly half of all phones in use in the US now are smartphones. This means that instead of using potentially expensive texting plans, people are sending messages over apps such as Facebook, Twitter, Skype, Google Voice, and more. Apple's iMessage and Research In Motion's Blackberry Messenger are also directly built into their devices and can send messages over data plans instead of a texting plan.
There's also this: the cost of a single text message is usually 20 cents. At 160 bytes per message, the total cost of sending 1 MB worth of data would end up being $1,250!
And you thought your data plan was overpriced…

Restitution Collection
If the judge orders restitution in your case, the collections unit in the Civil Division of the Department of Law may be able to help you receive restitution payments from the criminal defendant. The collections unit can provide collection services to you if the restitution judgment (1) was signed by a judge on or after January 1, 2002, and (2) was issued in a state criminal case or juvenile delinquency proceeding. The collections unit cannot collect restitution judgments in civil cases or municipal cases.
If the restitution judgment does not fit within the judgments that we can help you collect, you may collect the judgment on your own. You should consider speaking with a private attorney about the collection process. In addition, the court system has a booklet and forms for creditors to use to collect judgments on their own.
Restitution judgments that meet the requirements mentioned above are sent to the collections unit automatically. You do not need to request our services or send us anything in order for us to collect for you. Once we receive the judgment, we will contact you to explain our services. However, you are not required to have us collect the restitution for you. If you prefer, you may collect the restitution judgment without our assistance. You must inform us if you prefer to collect the restitution judgment yourself. If we do not hear from you, we will assume that you want us to collect the judgment for you.
Our collection services include sending demand letters, processing voluntary payments, and seizing the defendant's permanent fund dividends if the defendant is eligible for the dividend and the dividend is not claimed by a creditor with higher priority. Depending on the amount of the judgment and the potential collection costs, collection services may also include seizing money from the defendant's bank accounts, garnishing the defendant's wages, and recording judgment liens. We cannot guarantee when, or if, our collection efforts will be successful. The collections unit will decide what collection efforts will be made. That decision may depend on the unit's available resources. Also, although you may be entitled to interest on the restitution judgment, the collections unit will not collect interest on the judgment.
If you have any questions about this program, you may call the collections unit at (907) 269-5205 or toll free within Alaska at (800) 580-5205, e-mail the collections unit at firstname.lastname@example.com or send mail to Collections Unit, Alaska Department of Law, 1031 West 4th Avenue, Suite 200, Anchorage, AK 99501.
