Houston Symphony Celebrates with Handel's MESSIAH, 12/21-23
Carrying on the Houston legacy of holiday seasons past, The Houston Symphony will perform Handel's Messiah on December 21, 22 and 23 at Jones Hall.
Handel's Messiah is an English-language oratorio composed in 1741 by George Frideric Handel. Taken from the King James Bible and the Book of Common Prayer, the text of the work was compiled by Charles Jennen. The piece was premiered to a tepid reception in Europe, but since has come to be one of the most well loved and frequently performed choral works in Western music. Calling forth images of Jesus Christ's nativity, passion, resurrection and ascension, Handel's Messiah begins with God's promises as spoken by the prophets and ending with Christ's glorification in heaven.
Vocalists joining the Houston Symphony include GillIan Keith, soprano; Jay Carter, countertenor; Chad Shelton, tenor; Brian Mulligan, baritone; and the Houston Symphony Chorus, led by Charles Hausmann.
This Symphony Special performance takes place in Jones Hall, 615 Louisiana St., Houston, Texas.

In 2011, he was named Artistic Director designate of the Oregon Bach Festival to replace founding director Helmuth Rilling following the 2013 Festival.
Halls' eclectically designed orchestral programs span centuries, juxtaposing diverse composers such as Byrd, Britten, Gesualdo and Schoenberg. He also has an avowed passion for the 19th century Germanic and 20th century British repertoires, which he will be exploring in highly-anticipated returns to the Oregon Bach Festival, Colorado Symphony, National Symphony, RTE Dublin and the Bergen Philharmonic in the coming season. Forthcoming North American debuts include the Seattle and Columbus Symphonies, and a two-week engagement with the Minnesota Orchestra.
In addition to his symphonic engagements, he's been a guest conductor with Colorado's Central City Opera for three successive summers, directing a premiere of his own edition of Handel's opera Amadigi di Gaula in 2011, Puccini's Madame Butterfly in 2010 and Handel's Rinaldo for his 2009 debut.
He is the founding director of the Retrospect Ensemble, which is in the vanguard of performance-practice groups with an annual series in London's famed Wigmore Hall. Other appearances for the ensemble range from the Edinburgh International Festival to the Krakow Festival of Polish Music and a relationship with the Korean National Opera.
About Gillian Kieth, soprano
GillIan Keith has emerged as one of Canada's leading lyric sopranos. Her superb voice and musicianship are at home both on the opera stage and on the concert platform' making her one of the most stylish and versatile artists of her generation.
A past winner of the prestigious Kathleen Ferrier Award' she made her Royal Opera' Covent Garden debut as Zerbinetta in Strauss' Ariadne auf Naxos and has gone on to repeat the role with great success at Ópera de Oviedo and Welsh National Opera. Appearances this season and beyond include Philine in Thomas's Mignon' Iphis in Jephtha, Sylvie in Gounod's La Colombe' Tytania in A Midsummer Night's Dream' Tigrane in Radamisto and the Angel in Handel's La Resurrezione with Ars Lyrica Houston.
This season's concert performances include a Ferrier Centenary Concert at the Wigmore Hall' Knussen's Symphony No. 2 with the BBC Proms at Royal Albert Hall' St Matthew Passion with Handel and Haydn Society in Boston and King of Egypt with the BBC Philharmonic.
She has performed in concert throughout North America and Europe under leading conductors, including Sir John Eliot Gardiner' Daniele Gatti' Sir Richard Armstrong' Peter Schreier' Richard Hickox' Gianandrea Noseda' Harry Christophers and Sir Mark Elder.
About Jay Carter, countertenor
American countertenor Jay Carter is quickly gaining recognition as one of the nation's finest, lauded for his luminous tone and stylish interpretations in the music of Bach, Handel and Purcell. A frequent collaborator with both period and modern ensembles, Carter is nationally recognized as a leading interpreter of late Baroque repertoire. He has also gained acclaim for recital programs of modern classics by composers such as Brahms, Britten, Schubert, and Hahn, a genre typically outside the standard countertenor repertoire.
Carter made his Carnegie Hall debut in Messiah with Musica Sacra/Kent Tritle and recently made his Kennedy Center Debut with The National Symphony under the baton of Matthew Halls in Messiah. Recent appearances include Bach's St. Matthew Passion with the American Bach Soloists, Handel's Messiah with the National Symphony, Handel's Saul with Musica Vocale and the Kansas City Baroque Constortium, Bach's B minor Mass with the Choir of St. Thomas Church New York and the North American premiere of John Tavener's Lament for Jerusalem with the Choral Arts Society of Washington. He has worked with noted conductors including Simon Carrington, Arnold Epley, John Scott, Sir Philip Ledger, Nicholas McGegan and Helmuth Rilling. In the coming season Carter will make his Cleveland Orchestra debut under the baton of Ton Koopman as well as return engagements with The Kingsbury Ensemble, The Houston Symphony, The Choir of St. Thomas Church New York.
Carter is increasingly in demand as a guest lecturer on countertenor technique and repertory, frequently offering unique interactive lecture-recitals and master classes. He received a Masters in Music from the Yale School of Music and Institute of Sacred Music, where he studied with James Taylor, Simon Carrington and Judith Malafronte, and was singled out for the Louise E. McClain scholarship. He received his undergraduate degree from William Jewell College, where he studied voice with Arnold Epley. Carter was a 2008 regional finalist in the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions. He lives in Liberty, Missouri with his wife and two children, and serves as artist-in-residence at William Jewell College mentoring undergraduate music students.

Letter From Dr. Stephen I. Katz: Evaluation of NIAMS Centers Programs
Office of Science Policy, Planning and Communications
Communications and Public Liaison Branch (CPLB)
Anita Linde, M.P.P.
Nancy Garrick, Ph.D.
Deputy Director—CPLB
Trish Reynolds, R.N., M.S.
Media Liaison
Dear Colleagues:
The NIAMS regularly reviews the programs which it supports to ensure that we are effectively and efficiently funding research to promote advances in science. To that end, the Institute is undertaking an evaluation of its Centers programs to inform the design of innovative funding strategies to address research challenges and opportunities that require synergistic, integrated groups of investigators, significant infrastructure and technological innovations. As part of this evaluation, NIAMS is seeking input from the investigator community and organizations involved in its mission areas.
NIAMS currently supports extramural research Centers through Research Core Centers (P30), Centers of Research Translation (P50), and Multidisciplinary Clinical Research Centers (P60) grant mechanisms. The P50 and P60 mechanisms are designed to support translational and clinical studies with inter-disciplinary investigators. The P50 is specifically designed to support translational research on a disease-specific theme that benefits from an integrated group of investigators, while the P60 supports clinical projects that may or may not share a common theme. The P30 and P60 (the latter through the Methodology Core) provide support to facilitate the research of investigators with other sources of funding.
This evaluation will provide a framework for how to structure the NIAMS Centers programs to best organize and facilitate multi-investigator research. NIAMS is seeking input from the research communities in its mission areas on the needs and opportunities for organized approaches, and how to structure support for these in the future.
As part of this effort, NIAMS has assembled a Centers Evaluation Working Group comprised of representatives from all of our core mission areas. The members of the Centers Evaluation Working Group can be found at: http://www.niams.nih.gov/About_Us/Committees/CEWG_members.asp. Additionally, we have held or are planning listening sessions with investigators at major meetings this fall and early winter. We have already met with grantees at the annual meetings of the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research and the American College of Rheumatology, and we will meet with investigators at the upcoming Orthopaedic Research Society meeting. We are also planning teleconferences with investigators from the skin and muscle research communities in the near future. The NIAMS Advisory Council will be updated regularly on the progress of the evaluation, and we anticipate presenting the recommendations from the Working Group at the September 2013 meeting of the Advisory Council.
We would like to hear your forward-thinking ideas for our Centers Programs. More information can be found in a recently published Request for Information: Evaluation of NIAMS Centers Programs (NOT-AR-13-007). We also encourage you to submit your comments on the NIAMS website at: http://www.niams.nih.gov/Funding/Centers_Evaluation/default.asp.

Hi Guys,
I bought the http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.35688 "Dragon" wifi adapter.
I cannot get the driver to install. I put the disc in, I need to go to "My Computer"
to read the disc, all the files show. I click on setup.exe and nothing happens. It doesn't open the file.
Any recommendations? Help!
Of course, if you really wanted to have some fun, go to Wal-Mart late at night and ask the greeter if they could help you find trashbags, roll of carpet, rope, quicklime, clorox and a shovel. See if they give you any strange looks. --Streaker69
I wanted to let you guy's know I cancelled my order for the cheap alfa alternative. I waited 40 day's and nobody knew where the thing was.
So, I ordered an alfa awus036h and i must say, AWESOME!
Only in Windows 7 I already receive about 30! Very strong signals.
I tested my new alfa also in BackTrack, but the terminal couldn't handle the amount of AP's in the screen! The windows in my home are closed, I could not yet imagine what I will see when I hang this beast outside. All the signals are very strong. I have about 4 usb adapters and what the alfa does can't be compared to all my other adapters.
edit: I know see 25 AP's only in windows with the worst signal strenght 4 bars!
edit2: did a check on an AP and the name of the AP is the last name from someone in my neighberhood, I googled them, 250 meters away, signal strenght 5 bars! AWESOME! And the alfa is in my house, not even outside my room window!
Last edited by TheFlyingDutchMan; 02-11-2011 at 11:08 AM. Reason: edit
hey guys

EVERETT — A Lynnwood man escaped being charged with murder, but he isn't dodging a lengthy stretch behind bars for the violent robbery of 91-year-old Harold Caywood, who later died.
On Monday, Patrick Hartness was sentenced to 12 1/2 years in prison. That's about two years less than the low-end sentence for a second-degree murder conviction. It's about three times longer than a standard range sentence for first-degree robbery.
Hartness, 26, mugged Caywood outside a south Everett gas station as the World War II veteran was walking toward the store to pay for his gas. Caywood, who was punched in the face and knocked to the ground, died several weeks later.
Prosecutors declined to file a murder charge against Hartness after the Snohomish County medical examiner was unable to determine if the Aug. 24 attack was responsible for the elderly man's death. Without a conclusive cause of death, prosecutors didn't think they could prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Hartness was guilty of murder.
Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Laura Twitchell charged the case in a way that allowed for a lengthier prison sentence because Caywood was a particularly vulnerable victim due to his age.
Caywood lived on his own, still drove and enjoyed eating an early dinner at his favorite table at Applebee's. Yet at 5-foot 3-inches tall and 125 pounds, he was obviously frail. He never would have been able to fight back, his family said.
"Grandpa Hal" was a generous man who likely would have given the stranger $20 if he'd only asked, his granddaughter Virginia Woodhouse said.
"He didn't have to hit my grandfather," Woodhouse said. "The offender made a choice that day and he deserves to pay for his crime."
Caywood's treasured independence was stolen from him, his son said. After the attack, he never returned home or drove again. His family believes the mugging eventually cost him his life.
Hartness grabbed Caywood's wrist and punched him in the face. The defendant grabbed the money out of Caywood's hand and left him bleeding on the ground. Witnesses reported that Hartness ran to a nearby fast food restaurant, where he holed up in a restroom stall. That's where he stripped out of his shirt and donned his girlfriend's tank top in an attempt to disguise his appearance, police said.
His attorney Will Steffener said his client was high on heroin at the time of the robbery.
Hartness also was wanted on warrants for a domestic violence assault and driving with a suspended license. Everett police also uncovered evidence linking the convicted felon to a series of burglaries and other crimes targeting older victims. Hartness has agreed to pay restitution to his theft victims.
When Hartness pleaded guilty earlier this month, he also agreed that he deserves more time behind bars than the standard sentencing range, which is 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 years in prison. He faced up to life in prison — an unlikely sentence for a robbery conviction.
Hartness apologized Monday, saying that for too long he's allowed drug addiction to dictate his actions. He told the judge that he hadn't intended to hurt Caywood.
He also said that "in the back of my mind I will always believe that I'm at fault," for the victim's death.
Hartness vowed to make something of his life and use his time in prison to "reshape myself into a man that's worthy of being a productive member of society."
Snohomish County Superior Court Judge Michael Downes wasn't convinced that Hartness hadn't intended to hurt Caywood. The defendant simply could have taken the man's money and walked away.
"The guy out there that day didn't much care what happened to Hal Caywood. All you cared about was the money," Downes said.
The judge told Caywood's family that he understands how they could feel that Hartness was responsible for the victim's death. The law, however, only allows him to punish the defendant for his robbery conviction, not murder or manslaughter, he said.
Downes called what Hartness did "abysmal" and worthy of a lengthy prison sentence.
The lawyers had recommended a 10-year sentence. Downes said Hartness deserved more.
He told Hartness that if he's truly sorry for his actions, he should remember the pain he's caused and find a better way to live his life.
The judge also offered some advice to Caywood's family and friends.
"Try not to let the awful circumstances define him or your memories of him," Downes said.

Tornados drop two in Tuesday twinbill with North GreenvilleApril 13, 2010
Mullis and Corn go deep in final home games of season
Brevard, N.C. - Jackie Corn and Stephen Mullis hit solo home runs but the Brevard College baseball team dropped both games of a Tuesday doubleheader against North Greenville University at Gil Coan Field. The Crusaders (34-8) won both games by an 8-3 margin in the last home games of the year for the Tornados (8-31).
BC was held scoreless for the first three innings of game one when they plated two in the bottom of the fourth. Corn led off the frame with a home run over the right center field fence. It was the senior catcher's eighth round tripper of the year. Kellen Moman followed with a double to left field and came around to score on Derek Ham's RBI single to center.
The Crusaders had their biggest inning of the game in the top of the fourth. They scored four runs on five hits, including an RBI single from Anthony Foulk, a two-RBI single from David Frazier and an RBI double from Adam Taylor. Frazier was three for three with two RBI and two runs scored.
Moman singled through the left side in the Brevard fifth to drive in Mullis. He went three for three in the game. Mullis and Ronald Patterson each had two hits for Brevard
Matthew Benjamin started and pitched four and two thirds innings for NGU to earn his first win of the season. He allowed three runs on seven hits while walking one and striking out one. Nate Richards worked two and a third shutout innings of relief.
Joseph Lepore started for Brevard and pitched three and a third innings, allowing six runs on eight hits while striking out one and walking two.
Mullis put the Tornados on the board in game two with a one out opposite field home run over the left center field fence, tying Corn for the team lead with his eighth home run this season.
The Crusaders answered with another four run inning in the top of the fifth. After Taylor was hit by a pitch Fulmer followed with a two-run home run. Brian Giles added an RBI single.
The Tornados scored twice in the seventh. Ham and Josh Case each had RBI singles.
Mark Benjamin went the distance for NGU and picked up his fifth win of the season. He allowed three runs on eight hits while striking out two,
Brennan Daniels took the loss for Brevard. He pitched four innings and allowed five runs on five hits while striking out two and walking five.

LYNNWOOD — The apartments were on fire.
A man was stranded on a back deck. A woman was struggling to get out of the smoke.
Tony Vierra, the maintenance man, didn't think.
He just helped.
Vierra, 50, aided in the rescue of several people from a two-alarm fire Thursday morning at a Lynnwood-area apartment complex, said Leslie Hynes, spokeswoman for Snohomish County Fire District 1.
"He pounded on doors and got people out of the building," she said. "He did a great job."
The fire was reported about 9:30 a.m. at an eight-unit building at The Seasons Apartments in the 3700 block of 164th Street SW, just north of town.
One man was taken to a local hospital for smoke exposure, Hynes said. The man's injuries weren't believed to be life-threatening. His age wasn't immediately available.
Two more people were treated at the scene for smoke exposure.
The fire destroyed two apartments, with lesser damage to several more, Hynes said. About a dozen people were displaced.
Crews got most of the fire out within about 15 minutes, Hynes said. Smoke was visible for miles.
Vierra was in the office at the complex when the fire broke out, he said.
A woman began beating on the door and yelling. He ran outside and saw smoke billowing from an apartment.
"I started to scream bloody murder yelling, 'Fire!,' and banging on everybody's door," he said.
A man on a back deck was trying to use an extension cord to lower himself down about 20 feet to safety, Vierra said. Vierra ran and grabbed a ladder so the man could climb down.
Another woman appeared to be lost in the smoke.
"He saw her coming through the smoke with her cat and helped her out," Hynes said.
"There wasn't any thought process," Vierra said. "It was just reaction."
The cause of the fire remains under investigation but it appears to be accidental, Hynes said. Damage was estimated at $400,000. The American Red Cross was assisting those displaced. Crews also responded from Lynnwood and Mukilteo.
Vierra said he did what he hopes anyone would do. He's been at the complex about four months but has worked for the company for years, he said.
"No one's gonna get hurt on my watch," he said.

I'm sure the development team didn't spend many hours of their time to make a penetration testing distribution so that it worked flawlessly on the internet for you. Why don't you try and help instead of bashing something just because it doesn't work they way you want it. You didn't have to pay for BT, appreciate it for what it is, which is brilliant.and this is exactly why I am straight up finished with backtrack... there are tons of other distributions out there which have zero problems with the Alfa awus036h, even gimp assed wifiway.
cummon guys, I really wish I read the forums before I wasted my time on the gigs it took to download... it's only the most popular card in the universe for dishing around.
maybe put a warning that on your download page about the bum performance browsing the web... which seems to ne an impossible task for BT5r3x64-KDE.
I formatted my drive for you~

Sharp-shooting Pioneers top Tornados on SaturdayFebruary 4, 2012
Watkins has 10 points and four steals in loss
Greeneville, Tenn. - A 17-4 Tusculum run at the beginning of the second half broke open a one possession contest in Pioneer Arena on Saturday afternoon as Brevard fell on the road to the Pioneers in SAC action, 67-45.
Kendal Baxter scored 14 of her game high 25 points in the second half to pace Tusculum (15-5, 9-3 SAC) to the season sweep over Brevard (5-15, 0-12 SAC) as the Tornados struggled to connect from the floor in the contest, shooting 30.6 percent (19-62) from the floor as a team.
Micheala Watkins led the Tornados with 10 points and had four steals, while Lindsay Brendle had nine points and five boards in the loss. Anna Schlobohm added nine points from the bench, while Lacey Singletary added a team high six rebounds as Brevard falls to 5-15 on the season.
Baxter led all players with 25 points, hitting four three-pointer as the Pioneers shot 43.9 percent (25-57) from the floor as a team. Staci Hicks added 15 points and nine rebounds, while April McCann filled the statistic sheet with five assists and 10 rebounds in the victory.
Hicks scored the first four points of the contest to pace the Pioneers to the early lead as Tusculum held the scoring advantage through the first ten minutes of the first half. Holli Flippo drilled a three-pointer to give the Tornados their first lead of the game at 15-13 with 9:09 to play, but Blakeley Burleson answered with a trey two possessions later to put the Pioneers back on top.
The Tornados tied the game up twice in the final six minutes of the half as Schlobohm connected from behind the arc to knot the score at 21 with 5:58 on the clock, and Watkins and Linda Aughburns traded layups to keep the score tied at 23 apiece with 2:39 to play in the half.
Baxter connected on three free throws and Schlobohm's jumper was answered by a Hicks layup in the closing seconds of the half as the Pioneers went into the break up 28-25.
Hicks and McCann scored the first five points of the second half to spark a 17-4 run for the Pioneers as Tusculum built their first double-digit lead of the game at 45-29 with 10:39 on the clock. Asheley Watkins ended the run with a layup and Flippo connected on her second three-pointer of the contest to cut the lead down to 10 at 46-36 with 8:36 remaining in the contest.

Posted by Rebecca Levitan on Tue, Jul 21, 2009 @ 12:22 PM
I hear it on the radio and I have to smile "this car climbed Mount Washington". It brings back fond memories of being on a family vacation and taking the 8 mile climb up the Auto Road of Mount Washington and hoping on the way down that the brakes were in good condition! But it never failed, as we returned to the bottom of the mountain without any problems. Weather permitting, many families just opt to take the trip via the Cog Railway as it climbs directly to the summit on it 3.1 mile track.
There is something to be said for being known as home of the worst weather on earth, but it is a little intriguing and makes you want to experience it for yourself. The view are lovely and we will make sure to only send you during the Summer and Fall months.
Mount Washington has attracted visitors since 1642 and is the Northeast's highest peak. It contains 59 acres and is surrounded by the White Mountain National Forest. On a clear day views extend beyond New Hampshire as far as 130 miles to Vermont, New York, Quebec, Massachusetts, Maine and the Atlantic Ocean. Each year about 250,000 people visit the peak. What are you waiting for?

Stocks and bonds
Many people own stocks, but, unfortunately, most of them don't really understand what they own. This tutorial will keep you from being one of those people (not keep you from owning stock, but keep you from being ignorant about your investments).
Can you sell something that you borrowed from someone else? Why, yes, you can and it is called "shorting". Why would you do this? Well, you can now make money if the price goes down. Is this bad? This tutorial has your answers.
If you understand what a stock is (also a good idea to look at the topic on accounting and financial statements), then you're ready to dig in a bit on a company's actual financials. This tutorial does this to help you understand what the price of a company really is.
Life is full of people who will try to convince you that something is a good or bad idea by spouting technical jargon. Most of them have no idea what they are talking about. Don't be one of those people or their victims when it comes to stocks. From P/E rations to EV/EBITDA, we've got your back!
This is an old set of videos, but if you put up with Sal's messy handwriting (it has since improved) and spotty sound, there is a lot to be learned here. In particular, this tutorial walks through starting, financing and taking public a company (and even talks about what happens if it has trouble paying its debts).
When companies issue new shares, many people consider this a share "dilution"--implying that the value of each share has been "watered down" a bit. This tutorial walks through the mechanics and why--assuming management isn't doing something stupid--the shares might not be diluted at all.
Companies often buy or merge with other companies using shares (which is sometimes less intuitive than when they use cash). This tutorial walks through the mechanics of how this happens and details what is likely to happen in the public markets because of the transaction (including opportunities for arbitrage).
Private equity firms often borrow money (use leverage) to buy companies. This tutorial explains how they do it and pay the debt.
Both corporations and governments can borrow money by selling bonds. This tutorial explains how this works and how bond prices relate to interest rates. In general, understanding this not only helps you with your own investing, but gives you a lens on the entire global economy.
Anybody or anything (you can decide if a corporation is a person) can have trouble paying its debts. This tutorial walks through what happens to a corporation in these circumstances.

CHARLOTTESVILLE - No. 9 Virginia held off a late Old Dominion rally and earned a 14-13 victory in women's lacrosse action on Wednesday (March 28) night at Klöckner Stadium.
The victory was the Cavaliers' third-consecutive win and improved UVa's overall record to 7-4 on the season. Old Dominion's record went to 3-7 overall. The game's start time was delayed one hour and 25 minutes due to severe weather in the Charlottesville area.
"We ended up winning just enough draw controls and scoring just enough goals in the end," Virginia head coach Julie Myers said. "We'll take it as a win and move on, but clearly there are lots of things that need to be fixed before our next outing."
Junior Anne Thomas (Baltimore, Md.) and freshman Sloan Warren (Philadelphia, Pa.) scored three goals each to lead the UVa attack as eight different Cavaliers scored goals.
Virginia built a 9-4 halftime lead and ended up needing it, as the Lady Monarchs out-scored Virginia in the second half, 9-5.
In the final 10 minutes of the contest and with Virginia clinging to a 13-10 lead, Warren converted a free position shot at the 9:03 mark to give Virginia a four-goal cushion.
Old Dominion scored the game's final three goals, including the last one at the 1:12 mark, to pull within one goal down the stretch.
After ODU midfielder Emily Austerberry's goal to pull the Lady Monarchs to within 14-13, Virginia defender Lelan Bailey (Millersville, Md.) earned the crucial ensuing draw control. Virginia maintained possession to earn the victory.
Charlie Finnigan (Twickenham, Middlesex, England) and Ainsley Baker (Corning, N.Y.) each scored two goals, while Josie Owen (Gibson Island, Md.) added a goal and a team-high two assists. Baker, Warren and Finnigan had one assist apiece in addition to their goals.
Virginia out-shot Old Dominion, 31-26, and held a 20-9 advantage in draw controls.
UVa goalkeeper Kim Kolarik (Riva, Md.) finished with seven saves and a team-high three ground balls.
Warren and Daniela Eppler (Baltimore, Md.) led the squad with four draw controls each, while Owen and Maddy Keeshan (Greenwich, Conn.) each caused a team-high two turnovers.
Up next, Virginia remains home for a Saturday (March 31) contest against Boston College at 1 p.m. The senior class of Owen, Baker, Finnigan, Julie Gardner (Severna Park, Md.) and Anne Taylor (Alexandria, Va.) will be honored prior to the game.

Ask a guy the last thing a woman did that pissed him off and he'll have a laundry list of material. Ask him for the nicest compliment a woman gave him recently and you'll probably receive an answer along the lines of: "Are they supposed to do that?" "Wait? The nicest thing she said to me or I told her? … Uhh. Well, this one time… Uhh… What's the question again?"
After speaking with a bunch of guys about the most flattering comments they've ever received from women there was a lot of hesitation, at first. It was almost as if they didn't want to brag about themselves, or even worse, admit that a woman said something nice about them.
Read Why Good Guys Love Bad Girls
For some reason, men are all about complimenting women (teasing counts), but when women return the favor, they don't want to believe it. "I guess I just don't focus on compliments enough to remember them," says Pierce, a musician from Long Island, who seems to speak for most of the people I talked to. Well, that's unless women hit directly on the types of things men really want to hear. According to my humble research, those are the comments that really seem to stay with them.
The famous face
A lot of guys want to hear a girl tell them they're good looking, but that can be an awkward thing for a girl to say to a guy she's interested in or to someone she only began dating recently. That's where the look-a-like compliment comes into play. "One girl told me I looked like Edward Cullen," said Pierce. "That was an awesome compliment because every chick wants him."
Connecting the dots, Pierce came to the conclusion that if every chick wants Robert Pattinson and Pierce looks like the Twilight star, well then, he's in. Ladies, if you're keeping track at home, score one for vampires!
The master of the bedroom
This one is a no-brainer. Men like to think they know how to rock a woman's world in bed, even if they know it's probably not always true. "One girl told me I was the best she ever had," said Jeff, an Indiana-based accountant. "That's the best compliment I've ever gotten." And in true male fashion, Jeff awkwardly followed it up with his favorite rap line of the moment, "I told her to blame it on the alcohol."
The king of comedy
When women are asked what they look for in a guy, one of the most popular responses is always "someone who can make me laugh." Trust me, most men are well aware that women want someone who can put a smile on their face, which probably explains all the lame Leno and Letterman wannabes out there. Fielding, a friend of mine from Los Angeles, (a real guy who made up this bogus name for this article), wants his sense of humor to be appreciated. "I like to think I'm funny, so it's nice when it gets validated," he said.

Revision as of 00:57, 8 March 2007
With all of these fancy packages written by Erlang experts, how do you set up a cluster by hand?
Show prospective users the basis for the Erlang magic instead of hiding it within the current set of packages that are available. But they are somewhat overwhelming for the novice user.
If you wanted a simple 3 node cluster you could do the following by hand.
- Note: On windows cygwin the shell works as written.
- In win32 env's it's similar. except you should be creating .bat files instead of .sh files.
- On linux:
- Install erlang somewhere, say /usr/local/otp_NNN
- mkdir NodeStorage; mkdir NodeStorage/ANode; mkdir NodeStorage/BNode
- export ERL_TOP=(erlang install dir, in bash) or setenv ( csh )
- cd $ERL_TOP/bin
- mkdir NodeA NodeB NodeC
- The following script is useful if you have more than one box connected via NFS to the same filesystem.
- create a shell script (ANodeStart.sh) that contains the following:
HOSTNAME=`hostname` HDNAME=`host ${HOSTNAME} | cut -d ' ' -f 4` erl -name ANode@${HDNAME} -setcookie ACookie -mnesia dir '"~/NodeA"'
- cp ANode.sh BNode.sh
- sed -e 's/ANode/BNode/g' ANode.sh > BNode.sh
- sed -e 's/ANode/CNode/g' ANode.sh > CNode.sh
- Each file should now contain something like:
erl (or erl.exe or werl.ex on windows) -name email@example.com -setcookie ACookie -mnesia '"./NodeA"
- Then in 3 separate windows, execute ANode.sh, BNode.sh, CNode.sh
- Each window should come up with an erlang prompt of #> .
- To quit the shell, at the prompt, type > q().
- To get nodename, at the prompt, type > node().
- To get the node cookie, at the prompt, type > erlang:get_cookie().
- Verify in each shell that the cookie is the same.
- If not reset the cookie, at the prompt, type > erlang:set_cookie(node(), "SharedSecret").
- Go to the ANode erlang shell, define 2 variables
> email@example.com'. > firstname.lastname@example.com'.
- To Connect
> net_adm:ping(BNode). > nodes(). > net_adm:ping(CNode). > nodes().
- Go to the other shells and verify that each node is connected to the other 2 nodes.
- By default it's a switch topology; other topologies are allowed.
- Now that you are connected you can execute any loaded erlang module in any other node via rpc.
- To find out the list of all files in "/tmp" on Node C from Node A.
> rpc:call(CNode, file, list_dir, ["/tmp"]).
- To capture this into a variable:
> {ok, CNodeUserLocalFileList} = rpc:call(CNode, file, list_dir, ["/usr/local"]).
- Or to capture this for all connected nodes:
> rpc:multicall(nodes(), file, list_dir, ["/usr/local"]).
- Or to startup new processes on connected nodes
> rpc:multicall(nodes(), os, cmd, ["/usr/local/tomcat/bin/startup.sh"]).
- To see what's going on in your node cluster, use
> pman:start()
- This brings up the process manager, there is a Nodes sub menu which allows you to select which node's processes to inspect or trace; see the erlang man page for details.
- Alternately, you can use the toolbar,
> toolbar:start().

Sterilizing Bottles
I am a purely breastfeeding mum, but at times when I need to go out for errands, I leave my baby at home. That is why I express milk through bottles.
Now I would like to know how to sterilize bottles the proper way and how to store it after sterilizing.
Thank you!

I know a lot of people do not sterilize bottles and I cannot guarantee this is THE way to do it, but this is what I have always done.
When I get a new back of bottles, a new dummy, or teething rings- anything that is going to go in the baby's mouth. I wash them well with hot, soapy water as soon as they come out of the package. I then place them into a stockpot full of water and boil them for about five minutes. After they have boiled, I take them out with a pair of tongues and place them on the drying rack, allowing them to cool and air dry.
With my first baby I did this every time I washed her bottles and then I stored them in refrigerator (my cousin told me to do this but I really do not know why-lol). I did the same thing for my cousin's baby who I watched at the time while his mom worked.
Since that time I have taken a bit more of a relaxed view, after all baby's put everything in their mouth anyway. I go through this routine when I first get new stuff, to kill anything that might have accompanied the product home from the factory. However, after that initial boiling I just run them through the dishwasher for subsequent washes and then store them in the cabinet with everything else.

Hi Charibelle,
As Mon2many mentioned one option for sterilising bottles is to wash them with warm soapy water using a bottle brush then you can boil them in water in a large pot for approximately 5 minutes to make sure all bacteria has been destroyed. You can also boil the caps/lids and then once everything is cool and dry re assemble the bottle with lids and store safely in a cupboard.
There are multiple steam sterilising units on the market, some are less expensive than others. These have water placed inside a receptacle area and are usually placed in a microwave or alternatively are electric and you simply plug them in and operate them for the required time. The important thing to note when purchasing a steam sterilising unit is that is it compatible with your bottle shape and size.
You can also buy sterilising solution, such as Milton and other similar brands, which are added to a volume of cold water and you soak the bottles for the specified amount of time.
None of these options is any better than the other really, it's whatever you find you prefer. Sterilising solutions are available at most grocery/convenience stores, steam sterilisers are available at any place that sells bottles.
Hope this helps!

Thank you Holly and mom2many!
I really appreciate the insights that you gave me. As a mum, I am very meticulous with cleanliness that is why I want to give the best for my children. But as you said, babies put anything on their mouth anyway. But it is still important to consider cleanliness and hygiene of babies so as to avoid gastrointestinal problems such as diarrhea and vomiting.
So after sterilizing, is it necessary to cool the bottles first before storing in the fridge? Or it can be placed immediately for storage?
23rd February 2012 03:29 AM #5
Hi charibelle_925,
If you use milton you can sterilise the bottles in cold water (so there will be no need to cool them). It's also good to know that breastmilk has special properties which protect it from bacterial contamination so you don't need to worry about sterilising as much as if your baby was formula fed (although I can completely understand why you still want to be very careful about storing the breastmilk).
If you do use heat to sterilise your bottles then I used to use a cooled bottle to put the breastmilk in. You could also use milk storage bags as these are designed with breastmilk in mind. There was some breastmilk storage guidelines that stated that it was best not to store any breastmilk in a glass container in the fridge as some of the white cells in the milk are likely to stick to the glass but this was not an extensive study.
I hope this is useful.

Thank you for the insight ljmarsden. I use the Avent Sterilizer with my bottles. It is microwavable so I no longer use stockpots. However there are times that I use pots since it is just the same with the microwavable ones. Is the water source for sterilizing needs to be distilled? Since our water supply comes from the deep well, sometimes there are discoloration seen in the water and I think it is not safe to use for sterilizing.

If you have any concern about using the well water for sterilization, then go ahead and use distilled. I would think that the boiling of the water (for 5 minutes) would kill all contaminants, but I'm truly not sure and have never had a situation where I was drinking/using "discolored" water for my family.

Hi Charibelle_925 - I would consider using either distilled or filtered water instead of the well water. Interesting sterilising only came about as we all used to drink water drawn from wells. With clean town water sterilising is not as important as it used to be.

Thank you Kate and Jane! We only use the well water for baths and for cooking food. I only tried it once to use it for sterilizing bottles, and I think it is still better to use distilled water most especially my baby is the one using these bottles.

Cat Girl's Day Off
Reading Level: Grades 7-9
The Ng family has a lot of status. Everyone in the family has at least one A or B level Talent (as rated by BERM - the Bureau of Extra-Sensory Regulation and Management.) Everyone except Natalie, the family disappointment. She has one D level Talent...she speaks and understands cat. Natalie does her best to keep classmates from learning of her embarrassing talent, only using it to talk to the family cat in the privacy of her bedroom.
And that's how things remain until the day her friends Oscar and Melly shows her a video of a celebrity blogger being attacked by her own cat. The cat is screaming, " Help me! Hellllpppme! Kill the imposter!"
Against her better judgement, Natalie allows her star-struck friends to drag her into a mystery that involves Chicago, a remake of Ferris Bueller's Day Off and one very cranky pink cat.

I had a friend of mine come over to taste through some wines. So the menu was BBQ beef tenderloin on the smoker with grilled asparagus and roasted yukon potatoes. For the beef I season it up and then sear it in 450 oil about 2 minutes per side. I then went in the smoker for about 3 hours to an internal temp of 140. We started off with Dom des Lauribert VDP de Vaucluse 2008 $7. It had very nice bright, fresh berry fruit with a touch of spice. We then tasted the Lauribert Cotes du Rhone 2007 $10. This is definitely up a couple of notches. This is much more spice and pepper on the nose and more dense on the palate.
It is well worth the extra $3. Next was Dom Piaugier Sablet Counoise 2006 $15. This was interesting in that I hardly ever see just Counoise bottled. It was pretty subdued in the nose and a bit acidic on the palate with lighter raspberry flavors. Next is Alban Reva Syrah 1997. I bought this more than 10 years ago.
First of all the color is still very dark with purple at the edges. This is very aromatic with spice, smoke, and dark fruits in the nose and lots of black fruits on the finish. This mis one of the best domestic syrahs I have ever had. Quite the treat. Now on to Pinot Noirs. First was Waipara Springs Waipara 2008 $15. Color was fairly light but it smells like Pinot Noir. Lighter style , more strawberry flavors. Next up was Tohu Marlborough Pinot Noir 2006 $22. This is much darker and more to darker fruits in the nose. I feel that this is a very good example of Pinot in its price range. Last but not least was Craggy Range Te Kahu Merlot 2005 $$20. As i taste this merlot I compare it to merlot from anywhere. I ask myself how it stacks up. At this price i feel that it has much more complexity and is more interesting than most.It has more plum flavors on the palate and denser on the nose. This will hold up to BBQ very well. Basically, these all held up well with our dinner tonight. I also had some Greg Norman wines that we went through that were OK. Some were not. Remember I am here to sell wine for a living.

First Person
Star Tracks: Or, a Trip to the LSATsBy Kate Levin
Like many, I devoted to the recent Petraeus affair only the attention required to make a quip or two. Paula Broadwell and Jill Kelley (already it's a struggle to remember their names) didn't linger long in my consciousness as actual people; quickly they became the naughty biographer and Tampa's answer to Kim Kardashian, respectively. When processing a scandal, the mind makes remarkably fluid conversions from human being to character, and character to joke. Much more difficult is reversing this thinking, as I discovered the day I took a standardized test while seated next to Monica Lewinsky.
This was the fall of 2002—I was twenty-one, living in Brooklyn, and looking to escape the confusion of postcollege life. When I registered to take the law school admissions test at NYU that December, it felt less like choosing a career than like tossing a grappling hook out into the dark, hoping to catch hold of a stable future. Though public interest law seemed a perfectly appropriate path for someone raised on Pacifica Radio and political demonstrations, and though as a kid I'd logged countless hours watching the William Kennedy Smith and O. J. Simpson trials, I had neither an intellectual interest in the law nor any practical understanding of what lawyers did. Something about "briefs," it seemed.

It's hard to feel like yourself when it feels like everyone is staring at your scar. Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel can help you ease the doubts because it's clinically shown to improve the overall appearance, color, and texture of scars.1 More doctors2 and pharmacists3 recommended Mederma® than any other brand for older and newer scars. It works for many types of scars, including acne scars, surgery scars, and scars from burns, cuts, and other injuries. And since you only have to apply Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel once a day, it's easy to use.
- 1. The Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology, June 2012.
- 2. IMS Health, NDTI. December 2015.
- 3. Pharmacy Times and U.S. News & World Report, OTC Guide, July 2015.
Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel should be evenly applied and gently rubbed into the scar 1X daily for 8 weeks on newer scars and 3-6 months on older scars. Begin using Mederma® Advanced as soon as new skin has formed, typically two or more weeks after the injury or surgery. Make sure the scab has come off naturally and any stitches have been removed. On older scars you may start using Mederma® immediately. Do not apply to broken skin.
A little Mederma® Advanced goes a long way
Apply only a thin layer of Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel. Gently massage it into the scar until there is no shiny, wet or sticky feeling left. If your skin appears to be dry or is flaking after you apply Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel, you might be using too much. Try using a little less product or gently cleansing the area with mild soap and water before a fresh application. Remember that results take time, so don't get discouraged if you do not notice results right away. Generally, Mederma® Advanced users start to see noticeable improvement after about 4 weeks of daily usage, with optimum improvement in 8 weeks.
Mederma® Advanced is available in a 50 gram tube in the skin care aisle and a 20 gram tube in the first aid aisle.

- What is Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel?
- Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel is the first and only 1X daily topical gel formulated to help reduce the appearance of old and new scars. Mederma® Advanced is clinically shown to improve the color, texture, and overall appearance of scars.
- Are results guaranteed?
- Yes. If you've been using Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel for at least 8 weeks for new scars (or 3-6 months for older scars), and are not happy with the results, print and complete this form and send it to us with the original receipt for a refund of the purchase price, excluding any taxes or other fees. If you have questions about the Mederma® Money Back Guarantee, please call 1-888-925-8989.
- Who should use Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel?
- Anyone with a scar can use Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel. However, some people may be sensitive to its ingredients, so if you experience swelling, scar discoloration or severe itching, stop using Mederma® Advanced immediately. If symptoms persist contact your doctor.
- Where can I find Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel?
- To find a retailer in your area that carries Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel, or to purchase online, visit the Where to Buy page. Look for Mederma® Advanced in the first aid or skin care aisle.
- Does Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel make scars disappear?
- No product can make scars disappear completely. But Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel can help them appear softer, smoother, and less noticeable.
- My Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel box says, "do not use on open wounds." At what point is my wound considered completely closed?
- A wound is completely closed when the scab falls off or the stitches are removed. You can begin to use Mederma® Advanced as soon as there is no visible scab where the wound occurred or your stitches have been removed. While there is still a scab or stitches present, keep the wound clean and covered – this will speed healing time and help reduce the appearance of the resulting scar.
- Can I use Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel with other products and medicines?
- You can safely use Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel with other cosmetic products like lotions and makeup. However, Mederma® Advanced works best when it can be easily absorbed into the skin, so it's best to apply when your skin is clean and then allow time for it to dry before applying other products. Please consult your healthcare professional before using Mederma® Advanced with other topical (on the skin) products that you purchase with a prescription.
- If I use Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel on my face to treat acne scars, will it cause me to break out?
- Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel is a non-greasy, water-based gel, so you should be able to use it without breaking out. However, everyone's skin reacts differently to new products. Your best bet is to test Mederma® Advanced on a small part of your chest or back to see if you have a reaction to the product. If you do not have a reaction, you can then use it on scars as you see fit.
- What is Cepalin®?
- Cepalin® is the proprietary botanical extract in all Mederma® products. It's part of the Mederma® formula that works to improve the overall appearance, texture, and color of scars.
- What happens if I miss an application of Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel on my scar?
- For the best results on your scar, you should try to apply your Mederma® Advanced daily as directed. If you miss applications frequently, it will take longer to see results. If you're concerned about forgetting to use it regularly, sign up for the Mederma® reminder program. It's a great resource for the forgetful and the diligent alike to be sure you keep up with your Mederma® applications, and it offers new tips and facts about skin and scars.

Always can expect the best product
By Arizonabridges

My dogs love these stairs, really helps when they suffer from patella subluxation which many Westies do. I can easily move them from the living room to bedroom and it prevented them from jumping almost immediately. What a great idea!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Older cat
By Vicious Hamster
from San Marcos, TX
I bought this for my 17-year-old, 20 pound cat so he can safely reach the sofa in the living room. I like that we use the stairs now and have the option of a ramp later if stairs become too difficult for him. The other cats love it as a tiny cat tree since it offers an elevated place to sit. The only con is my youngest thinks it makes a great scratching post.
An excellent buy.

My British Cream Retriever had been having a problem with his rear legs and stairs, so I purchsed these steps which solved his problem getting on my bed while I read. He soon got used to them and uses them all the time. They are very well made, carpetted, attractive, sturdy and easy to move from room to room with a strong leather covered handle. An excellent buy.
it's Best Pet & Stair Case on the market!

WELL MADE * FIRM & STEONG SUPPORT * Appearance blends in nicely /my Living Room Furniture! VERY HAPPY W/THIS PURCHASE!
Perfect Solution for older pet
By Betty
from Jackson, TN
I had purchased the 3-step for high bed and my 10 year old chihuahua with bad back loved it! No longer had to wait to be picked up to get on the bed and no worries about jumping off and hurting herself. This 2-step was ordered for sofa where she loves to jump up and sit during day. She took to both almost immediately. The wide steps make her feel safe and secure! One of my best purchases ever!
By Catnips
from Richmond, BC
my dog uses steps to get up and down from sofa or bed. she has become blind and unable to jump.
stairs solve problem
By queen jean
from Ocean Ridge, FL
My dog was tentative using the stairs the first couple of times, but easily overcame that. It's a great way for him to get in his chair or on our bed. Great for dogs whose legs are too short and whose weight make jumping up hard and saves me the chore of picking him up. High quality and ease to use.
Access to furniture without jumping
By Hedgie
from PA
Note carefully that there are pictures of 2 different pet stairs for this item in the catalogue. One picture has the old stairs, and one has the new ones. I have the old ones (2 and 3 steps) and have liked them. I expected the one I just ordered to be exactly the same. It isn't. The old design had risers and treads that met at 90 degrees, leaving no space between them. The new design has risers that meet at a different angle, and they leave a space behind the bottom tread. I was initially concerned that this is not as safe a design as the original pet stairs. And I am still not thrilled at the change. But my dogs seem to have no difficulty, and the steps let them get on & off furniture without jumping.

Often mundane social networking service Twitter is taking on what may be its weightiest subject yet: bombing raids.
@IDFSpokesperson, the official, verified Twitter account of the Israeli Defense Forces, has provided information in real time to its more than 100,000 followers about its military offensive in the Gaza Strip, targeting Hamas militants.
"The IDF has begun a widespread campaign on terror sites & operatives in the #Gaza Strip, chief among them #Hamas & Islamic Jihad targets," the account tweeted, as first reported by PopSci.
Updates on strikes, photos of targets and defenses of their actions followed. The account even turned to threats:
"We recommend that no Hamas operatives, whether low level or senior leaders, show their faces above ground in the days ahead," said one Tweet.
Al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas' military wing, got in on the action, tweeting its response:
"Al Qassam targeting #Israeli soldiers east of Jabaliya camp with dozens of projectiles, direct hit reported #gaza #ShaleStones," the group boasted from its official account, @alqassambrigades.Overall, @IDFSpokesperson has sent out more than 70 tweets with updates in the first hours of the campaign.

"I was relieved and happy that the reaction was positive, because it is an iconic film in the costume area," Atwood explains.
Atwood writes a pretty good sex scene, but the freedom in the act is vastly sexier than the sex is.
It was a weakness on the part of Mr. Atwood, but an amiable one, and is shared by many who live under republican institutions.
I was grateful to the doughty Mr. Atwood, but just then I should have enjoyed choking him.
"He was sort of drowsy when I roused him for his turn," said Atwood.

THE FIRST PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES,
The Man Who Could Have Been King
Before the first presidential inauguration in 1789,
Congress debated how the leader of the new United States should
be addressed. Proposals included "King George," "Your
Highness," "Protector of Liberties," or "Your
High Mightiness!" George Washington would accept no other title
than "Mr. President." After he took the oath of office
he spontaneously added the plea, "So help me God." He
did not believe in serving more than two terms, and once again walked
away from power in 1797.

LOS ANGELES - A man who officials say arrived in Los Angeles on a flight from Japan wearing body armor and carrying an arsenal of dangerous items in his luggage is expected to plead not guilty today to a federal charge.
Yongda Huang Harris, 28, of Boston is charged in Los Angeles federal court with one count of transporting hazardous materials, which carries a penalty of up to five years in prison.
He was arrested Oct. 5 after landing at Los Angeles International Airport wearing a bullet-resistant vest, flame-retardant legging covers and knee pads beneath a trench coat, federal authorities said.
Harris, a naturalized U.S. citizen of Chinese descent whose ultimate destination was Boston, was marked for a secondary inspection after customs officers observed his unusual outfit.
Last month, Harris was ordered detained without bail pending trial after U.S. Magistrate Judge Paul L. Abrams found him a "flight risk," citing his history of foreign travel and foreign employment and no significant ties to the Los Angeles-area.
During the court hearing, Assistant U.S. Attorney Melissa Mills said evidence was found on Harris' computer indicating a "strong interest in sexual violence" against girls.
Also found was information on how to commit certain types of crimes, including murder, information about date rape drugs, and a Word document showing Japanese school schedules, the federal prosecutor said.
Defense attorney Steven Seiden countered that the items found on the computer have "nothing to do" with the charge he's facing.
"He may delve into a fantasy world in his research and his interests ... He may have interests that are not of the norm," Seiden said, adding that this did not mean his client was engaging in criminal conduct or would bring "any type of harm to anyone."
U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials said Harris' luggage contained a smoke grenade, a hatchet, knives, a gas mask, biohazard suits, handcuffs, leg irons, body bags, a device to repel dogs, three leather-coated billy clubs, a collapsible baton and a full-face respirator.
An affidavit prepared by federal agents in support of a criminal complaint states that when a member of the Los Angeles Police Department's bomb squad conducted an X-ray examination of the smoke grenade, it showed the device fell under the United Nations' explosives shipping classification, meaning it is prohibited on passenger aircraft.
Depending on the conditions when it is ignited, the smoke grenade could potentially fill the cabin of a commercial airplane with smoke or cause a fire, officials said.
The defense lawyer disputed the federal government's contention that Harris had been wearing body armor, saying it was "clothing that was purchased in Asia by my client" and is "popular among young people in Asia."
He also disputed the federal government's classification of the bags as "body bags," instead describing it as a "giant duffel bag."

Top Four Remain the Same in BCS Standings
Sunday, November 7, 2010
SEC Has Six Teams in Top 25The University of Oregon remains No. 1 in the latest BCS Standings after an impressive blowout victory over Washington on Saturday. Auburn, which rolled over FCS UT-Chattanooga, remains No. 2, while TCU and Boise State, stay at No. 3 and No. 4, respectively, after blowout victories. The top two teams in the final BCS standings play for the BCS National Championship in Glendale this year.After the top four, however, there have been some significant changes. LSU, which upended Alabama on Saturday in Baton Rouge, jumped from No. 10 all the way to No. 5, to become the highest-ranked one-loss team.

Recently I have been doing some modifications to Backtrack 3 and was wondering if I could add the service command to it. IE. service proftpd start etc etc.
After looking in to this I found a couple of posts mentioning xinetd and have begun to believe that service is a feature of xinetd. Although I may be wrong!
If this si correct is it possible to install xinetd on backtrack, also does anyone know how I can get vnc-server to execute at boot time as just adding /usr/bin/start-vnc to /etc/rc.d/rc.M fails.
Thanks for your time,
