How do I enter a hyphenated or compound last name?
The growing use of hyphenated married names and increasing
cultural diversity has made it necessary for the police department to apply
consistent standards for name entry in our computer systems that may differ
from custom or culture. For hyphenated
Arabic surnames, such as Ali Mohammed Al-Barak, simply remove the hyphen and enter Albarak
as the last name. For hyphenated compound surnames, such as Brenda M. Smith-Jones, enter the
last surname component only: Jones. For
compound surnames without hyphens, such as Eduardo Miguel Santiago Avila simply enter the last surname
component: Avila. If the name
you wish to check is particularly unusual or you are uncertain, it is best to
contact our Records
Unit for advice.
Why are these records available to the public?
Nebraska law declares criminal history information to be a public record, and requires criminal justice agencies to provide such information to the public, subject to certain regulations. The applicable state law is contained in the Criminal History Information Act, Nebraska Revised Statutes 29-3501, et seq.
Why do I have to pay to obtain this information?
The law provides that criminal justice agencies may assess
reasonable fees for criminal histories. The fee for criminal histories from the
Lincoln Police Department is established by the Lincoln Municipal
Code 2.32.110. The department allows anyone to review their own criminal history at no cost. You may do so in person at the Lincoln Police
Department Records Unit.
I dont have a credit card, how can I purchase an
arrest history?
Internet access requires a Visa or MasterCard, however this
report may also be obtained in person during normal business hours or by mail
at the Lincoln
Police Department Records Unit. Payment is accepted by cash or check.
Is this a list of all arrests for the subject?
No. For various legal and practical reasons, this list does not necessarily include every
What do the abbreviations mean?
While most of the abbreviations and terms are self-explanatory, if you need help interpreting any of this material, you are welcome to contact the Lincoln Police
Department Records Unit if you need help interpreting any of this material. You may also email your questions and comments, and we will
respond via email.
What can I do if there is information contained in the
list that I believe is inaccurate?
We make every effort to insure the accuracy of criminal
history information. Despite this,
inaccuracies occur. One of the more
common problems we encounter occurs when a defendant provides false information
or identification at the time of arrest, resulting in a record for another
person, often a friend or relative. Please notify us immediately
if you believe any information is in error. We are committed to researching any records in dispute, resolving any
problems, and maintaining criminal history information that is as accurate as
How can I find out if the subject has been arrested elsewhere?
In Nebraska, all criminal justice agencies are required by
law to make criminal history information available to the public. The Nebraska
State Patrol maintains one of the more complete criminal history databases
available, however, not all arrests by local agencies are contained in the
Patrols criminal history, especially arrests when the defendant was issued a
citation for a misdemeanor and released, rather than being taken to jail. There is no comprehensive national database of all arrests by all law enforcement agencies. The best way to conduct a thorough review is by contacting the State and local law enforcement agencies in the places where the subject has
I have an arrest listed, but I was never arrested, I just
received a ticket.
Although many people think of an "arrest" as meaning that
the subject was taken to jail, this term means that a subject was either issued
a citation and released or taken into custody for a criminal offense. Most misdemeanor arrests by the Lincoln
Police Department are handled with citation and release.
I see many arrests for this subject with a disposition of
DISMISSED. What does that mean?
Generally, it means that the prosecuting attorney filed the
charge following the police arrest, but dismissed the case in court at a later
time. Cases are dismissed for a variety
of reasons. Many cases are dismissed as
part of a plea agreement in which the subject agrees to plead guilty to some
charges in exchange for others being dismissed, or in exchange for agreeing to
pay the court costs only. Many charges
are dismissed when the defendant enters a pre-trial diversion program. In some cases, prosecutors dismiss charges
because of evidentiary problems, such as a witness who fails to appear, or
evidence that is suppressed. There is
no way to determine from computer records why a given charge was dismissed;
however complete court records may reveal such information. Accessing court requires contacting the clerk or administrator of the court where the
charge was filed.
This doesnt work on my computer, I cant print the
list, whats wrong?
We get many requests to troubleshoot specific problems customers
are having with our online applications. Unfortunately, we cannot provide technical support to the thousands of
variations of hardware, software, and connectivity issues our customers may
experience. This is a straightforward
application just like many other public and private Internet sites. We appreciate your comments and feedback.

Office of Public and Intergovernmental Affairs
Remarks by Former Deputy Secretary W. Scott Gould
Change Academy
Washington, D.C.
December 9, 2010
Thank you, John, for that generous introduction and this timely discussion about change.
You know, Mark Twain once said that "a man can live for two months on a good compliment." And this afternoon, John, I think you've ensured my immortality with those very kind words. Thank you for all you and the HR&A team are doing to invest in our people.
Dr. Petzel, thank you for joining us today, and for your continued leadership of VHA.
Dean Muellerweiss, thank you for your leadership of VA Learning University and for launching the Change Academy to support our sweeping transformation efforts.
Brian Hawkins, director of the Jack C. Montgomery Medical Center. We look forward to hearing, first-hand, about the pivotal role our inaugural Change Academy played in your Path to Excellence campaign.
We're all familiar with the words, Veteran-centric, results-oriented, forward-looking. It's more than just a catchy phrase. It's the bedrock of our transformation—the pillars of a high-performing, 21st century VA.
The transformation defined by that phrase basically means three things. It means changing VA's culture from one of Veterans adversary to Veterans advocate. It means delivering to them improved services and benefits coupled with high standards of quality. And it means building strong yet flexible management systems.
How do we accomplish these goals? In a word—change.
It's been said, you can have change without progress, but you cannot have progress without change. But we all know that change, by its very nature, is problematic. It demands that we retool our competencies and re-think how to manage people, programs, processes, and resources.It requires us to be sensitive to the dynamics of our environment and to be flexible in our approaches.
Change shakes up the status-quo and upsets tradition, especially in an organization with a rich and noble history like VA
In the same way that people power VA, people power change. All the latest trends, best practices, and forward-leaning policies in the world amount to nothing without good people to implement them.
But we all know people naturally resist change. Change is about pushing past our comfort zones; accepting new ideas and ways of doing things. Let me give you an example. Take the story of Henry Warner, of Warner Brothers Pictures, in 1927. When asked by one of his people about looking into that remarkable new invention called "talking pictures," he purportedly retorted, "Yeah, well, who the hell wants to hear actors talk anyway?"
Now that's serious resistance to change!
That brings me to the subject of our newly-launched, innovative Change Academy. I see it as a critical catalyst for VA's successful transformation. A leading expert in organizational change, at Harvard University, says that one of the reasons transformations don't reach their full potential is because employees are not given a sense of the urgent need for transformation. They're not encouraged to be active participants. And they're not given the support they need to embrace change.
VA's Change Academy will help address these issues because it helps leaders lead change, and helps employees understand, cope with, and power change. It assists in transforming our culture—all those beliefs and expectations that dictate how we do business—how we think, work, and serve Veterans. It teaches employees to take the initiative, think outside the box, and innovate. And it encourages risk-taking—the oxygen of progress.
Secretary Shinseki and I believe VA employees are our most important resource, bar none. We have every confidence in their dedication, abilities, and commitment to creating a more agile, more effective, and more responsive VA. We want to ensure they are well-prepared, well-trained, well-informed, and well-supported with the state-of-the-art tools needed to do their jobs—with competence, initiative, and a high sense of job satisfaction.
But more than that, we want them to help drive transformation through their boots-on-the-ground, frontline perspective. Solutions to our problems cannot be driven only from the top down. They also must bubble up from the bottom—from out in the field to 810 Vermont Avenue. That's the reason for our Change Academy and the ADVANCE initiative—we want to invest in the ideas and innovation, the energy and enthusiasm of our people.
As we'll hear from Brian and his pioneering leadership team, the Change Academy has established itself as a proven success-builder—success for:
- The Jack C. Montgomery Medical Center in its quest for organizational excellence.
- Its employees as they've leveraged their potential into high performance.
- And for VA's overarching transformation.
In closing, let me offer my congratulations to VA's Learning University and to you, Brian. Your facility's achievements are a model for your VA colleagues across the country.
Thank you, all, for inviting me to participate in today's briefing.

List of the top 10 Linux lists
Linux for the GNU South — it's coming up so attend if you can.
Lists: We all make 'em and, judging by what appears on LXer.com, we all read 'em. A great majority of them are worthwhile and informative; others, not so much.
Over the last few months, I've noticed an uptick in the number of "Top $NUMBER List of $VERY_COOL_PROGRAMS" on LXer.com and thought that perhaps a list of the best lists might be helpful to navigate these uncharted waters.
Doing this list David Letterman style, we'll start at 10 and work our way down to the Number 1 Linux list over the last few months. Ready?
10. 8 of the Best Free Astronomy Apps — An excellent list for those into astronomy: What could be better than free star charting apps? Me, I'm all in on KStars. Thank Steven Epps for this — many of the lists you'll find in the ether of the Internet come from him.
9. Fedora 15's Five Best Features — This review by Steven Vaughan-Nichols should be renamed "Five Good Things about Fedora 15 and a Song of Despair" (with apologies to Pablo Neruda), since he starts out by bemoaning (rightfully) the shortcomings of GNOME 3, and then following up with a list of five good things about the release.
8. 31 Great Tutorials for Inkscape — You might as well call this the Baskin Robbins of Inkscape tutorials, and the Unixmen, who normally have some good tutorials on hand, give us a veritable ice cream store of knowledge on this great software.
7. 7 of the Best Free Linux GPS Tools — Another list from Steve Epps. A program can be found here to let you know where you're going and where you've been.
6. Five Must Have GNOME Shell Extensions — If you're running Fedora 15 with GNOME 3, this list will come in handy.
5. 5 things I like in Ubuntu 11.04 (Unity) and 10 things which I don't — Dark Duck likes and dislikes several things about Natty Narwhal, and the interesting perspective here is that some of the likes and dislikes are the same.
4. 9 Good CD and DVD Burning Tools for Ubuntu/Linux — While these aren't necessarily soley Ubuntu tools, it provides a good list.
3. Top 6 Quicklists for Ubuntu 11.04 Natty to Enhance Unity Launcher Functionality — … and if you said that all in one breath, you get a prize. Manuel Jose seems to be on top of all things Ubuntu, and he gets a prize for providing adequate alternatives for Unity users.
2. 7.5 Reasons to Look Forward to Fedora 15 — Joe "Zonker" Brockmeier adds a list of things that, at the time, were coming up in the now-released Fedora 15, and the half-point goes to . . . nope, no spoiler alert here.
Which brings us to the top Linux list of the past few months, brought to you by LXer.com:
1. 70 Open Source Replacements for Small Business Software — In a word: Damn.
Got an item I missed? Pass it on.
(Larry Cafiero is one of the founders of the Lindependence Project and has just started developing software in his new home office. Watch this space.)

"Deliberate Misinformation": Fox Host Juan Williams Debunks His Own Network On Libya Attack
In a blow to his own network, Fox News host Juan Williams debunked false narratives that Fox News has frequently pushed since the attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
In an opinion piece for The Hill, Williams offered [1] three "corrections" for what he describes as "deliberate misinformation" from Republicans (and their conservative media mouthpieces) about the Benghazi attack.
Misinformation #1: "U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice lied to the American people in the days after the attack" when she suggested that a viral anti-Islam video sparked violence and wide-spread protests. Fox News has [2] repeatedly [3] pushed [4] this narrative to make it seem like the administration was deliberately misleading the American people.
Correction: Williams debunked [1] this false narrative, pointing to the "simple fact" that James Clapper, Director of National Intelligence, "confirmed that Rice told the truth in describing the assessment of the intelligence community at the time of her remarks." Williams went on to explain that CIA Director David Petraeus briefed the House Intelligence Committee with the same intel Rice used, as did Undersecretary of State for Management Patrick Kennedy in testimony before Congress earlier in October. Furthermore, as Media Matters has previously exposed [5], Williams noted that Rice "stressed that there was an ongoing investigation where conclusions were subject to change." Indeed, Rice appeared on all major networks and repeatedly stressed [4] that there was an ongoing investigation into the attacks.
Misinformation #2: "[R]equests for extra security in Benghazi were denied by the administration," coupled with the suggestion that the "attack would have been stopped, and the ambassador still alive, if the requests had been granted." Fox News pushed this myth on multiple [6] occasions [7].
Correction: Williams pointed out [1] that requests for extra security were focused on the embassy in Tripoli, not Benghazi, and State Department officials believe that even if the requests had been granted, they would likely not have changed what happened in Benghazi because the consulate would have been ill-equipped to respond to such a large-scale assault (again echoing a previous report [7] by Media Matters):
It is being charged that requests for extra security in Benghazi were denied by the administration.
The suggestion is that the attack would have been stopped, and the ambassador still alive, if the requests had been granted.
But at a hearing of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee this month, Charlene Lamb, the Deputy Assistant Secretary of State and head of the Bureau of Diplomatic Security, testified that the request was for added security in Tripoli, the capital of Libya, and not Benghazi.
The added manpower would have been based 400 miles away from the violence.
In addition, U.S. security officials report more guards could not have repelled heavy weapons used by the attackers.
Misinformation #3: "[T]he attack on Benghazi is evidence that al Qaeda is resurgent." Fox News has pushed this myth multiple times, suggesting [8] on October 11 that one of the reasons for violence toward U.S. officials overseas is a "resurgence of Al Qaeda attacks" in the Middle East and North Africa. In another segment on October 12, notorious warmonger John Bolton suggested [9] that the Libya consulate attack shows a "resurgence of Al Qaeda" and "evidence that the War on Terrorism is still very much with us."
Correction: Williams explained [1] that the Obama administration has successfully diminished Al Qaeda, including the removal of leader Osama bin Laden, with targeted drone strikes and anti-terror policies:
The reality is that missions authorized by the Obama administration have killed the top commanders of the terrorist group, including bin Laden.
In addition, President Obama's drone strikes targeting al Qaeda members have decimated the remaining members of the group.
Tommy Vietor, a National Secretary Council spokesman, explains the impact.
"Our assessment that we have decimated al Qaeda leadership is unchanged. Dozens of their senior leadership have been taken off the battlefield as a result of the president's anti-terror policies," Vietor said.
"We know affiliates like al Qaeda in the Arab Peninsula will seek to target us and that's why we go after them relentlessly."

What Is Marfan Syndrome?
Fast Facts: An Easy-to-Read Series of Publications for the Public
Marfan syndrome is a disorder that affects connective tissue. It is usually passed from parent to child through the genes, but may result from a new gene mutation.
- What Is Connective Tissue?
- Who Gets Marfan Syndrome?
- What Causes Marfan Syndrome?
- What Are the Symptoms of Marfan Syndrome?
- How Is Marfan Syndrome Diagnosed?
- What Types of Doctors Treat Marfan Syndrome?
- How Is Marfan Syndrome Treated?
- What Do Pregnant Women with Marfan Syndrome Need to Know?
- What Are Some of the Emotional and Psychological Effects of Marfan Syndrome?
- What Research Is Being Done on Marfan Syndrome?
- For More Information
What Is Connective Tissue?
Connective tissue supports many parts of your body. You can think of it as a type of "glue" between cells that:
- Helps bring nutrients to the tissues
- Gives tissues form and strength
- Helps some tissues do their work.
If you have Marfan syndrome, many body systems can be affected, such as:
- Skeleton
- Heart and blood vessels
- Eyes
- Skin
- Nervous system
- Lungs.
Who Gets Marfan Syndrome?
Men, women, and children can have Marfan syndrome. It is found in people of all races and ethnic backgrounds.
What Causes Marfan Syndrome?
Connective tissue is made of many kinds of protein. One of these proteins is called fibrillin. Marfan syndrome is caused by a defect in the gene that makes fibrillin.
What Are the Symptoms of Marfan Syndrome?
Marfan syndrome affects people in different ways. Some people have only mild symptoms, and others have severe problems. Most of the time, the symptoms get worse as the person gets older.
People with Marfan syndrome are often very tall, thin, and loose jointed. They may have:
- Bones (arms, legs, fingers, and toes) that are longer than normal
- A long, narrow face
- Crowded teeth because the roof of the mouth is arched
- A breastbone that sticks out or caves in
- A curved backbone
- Flat feet.
Heart and blood vessels
Most people with Marfan syndrome have problems with the heart and blood vessels, such as:
- A weak part of the aorta (the large artery that carries blood from the heart to the rest of the body). The aorta can tear or rupture.
- Heart valves that leak, causing a "heart murmur." Large leaks may cause shortness of breath, fatigue, and a very fast or uneven heart rate.
Some people with Marfan syndrome have problems with the eyes, such as:
- Nearsightedness
- Glaucoma (high pressure within the eye) at a young age
- Cataracts (the eye's lens becomes cloudy)
- A shift in one or both lenses of the eye
- A detached retina in the eye.
Many people with Marfan syndrome have:
- Stretch marks on the skin. These are not a health problem.
- A hernia (part of an internal organ that pushes through an opening in the organ's wall).
Nervous system
The brain and spinal cord are covered by fluid and a membrane. The membrane is made of connective tissue. When people with Marfan syndrome get older, the membrane may weaken and stretch. This affects the bones in the lower backbone (spine). Symptoms of this problem include:
- Painful abdomen
- Painful, numb, or weak legs.
People with Marfan syndrome do not often have problems with their lungs. If symptoms in the lungs do arise, they may include:
- Stiff air sacs in the lungs.
- A collapsed lung if the air sacs become stretched or swollen.
- Snoring or not breathing for short periods (called sleep apnea) while sleeping.
How Is Marfan Syndrome Diagnosed?
There is no single test to diagnose Marfan syndrome. Your doctor may use many tools to make a diagnosis:
- Medical history
- Family history (any family members who have Marfan syndrome or who died at a young age from heart problems)
- A physical exam, including the length of the bones in the arms and legs
- An eye exam, including a "slit lamp" test
- Heart tests such as an echocardiogram (a test that uses ultrasound waves to look at the heart and aorta).
What Types of Doctors Treat Marfan Syndrome?
You may need special kinds of doctors to treat the many symptoms of Marfan syndrome. Your health care team may include:
- A family doctor or pediatrician
- A cardiologist - doctor who treats heart problems
- An orthopaedist - doctor who treats bone problems
- An ophthalmologist - doctor who treats eye problems
- A geneticist - doctor who specializes in genetic diseases
How Is Marfan Syndrome Treated?
There is no cure for Marfan syndrome, but certain activities can help treat and sometimes prevent related problems.
- Getting a yearly exam of the spine and breastbone
- Using a back brace or having surgery for severe problems.
Heart and blood vessels
- Getting regular checkups and echocardiograms
- Seeing a doctor or going to an emergency room for pain in the chest, back, or abdomen
- Wearing a medical alert bracelet
- Taking medicine for heart valve problems
- Having surgery to replace a valve or repair the aorta if the problem is severe.
- Getting yearly eye exams
- Wearing eyeglasses or contact lenses
- Having surgery if needed.
- Not smoking (because it can hurt your lungs)
- Seeing a doctor if you have any problems with breathing during sleep.
Nervous system
- Taking medicine for pain if the membrane of your spinal cord swells.
- Eating a balanced diet can help you maintain a healthy lifestyle, even though no vitamin or supplement can slow, cure, or prevent Marfan syndrome.
What Do Pregnant Women with Marfan Syndrome Need to Know?
Women with Marfan syndrome can and do have healthy babies. Because pregnancy can stress the heart, pregnant women should see an obstetrician and other doctors familiar with Marfan syndrome. Your doctor can help prevent problems with your heart while you are pregnant.
What Are Some of the Emotional and Psychological Effects of Marfan Syndrome?
A genetic disorder can cause social, emotional, and financial stress. It often requires changes in outlook and lifestyle. People with Marfan syndrome may feel many strong emotions, including anger and fear. They may also be concerned about whether their children will have Marfan syndrome.
It helps people with Marfan syndrome to have:
- Proper medical care
- Correct information
- Strong social support.
Genetic counseling may also help you learn about the disease and the risk of passing it on to your children.
What Research Is Being Done on Marfan Syndrome?
Marfan syndrome is the focus of intense research. Scientists are studying:
- Factors that cause heart and blood vessel problems
- The process that leads to skeletal problems
- The role of a chemical messenger called transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-ß)
- Genes linked with Marfan syndrome
- Defects in the fibrillin gene
- Families with Marfan syndrome
- How Marfan syndrome affects connective tissue
- Why people with Marfan syndrome have different symptoms
- New treatments, medicines, and surgeries to help people with Marfan syndrome.

The final feature of the Lotus Sutra we must note, a feature which has been of some influence in East Asian Buddhist practice, is that of body-burning. Chapter 23 of the Lotus Sutra recounts how Bodhisattva Baisajyaraja in a previous life wished to make the most precious offering to the Buddha. He accordingly offered his body by setting fire to it. The body burned for a very long time and he was eventually reborn in a Pure Land: 'Good man, this is called the prime gift'. Supposing someone wishes to become enlightened:
"If he can burn a finger or even a toe as an offering to a Buddha-stupa, he shall exceed one who uses realm or walled city, wife or children, or even all the lands, mountains, forests, rivers, ponds, and sundry precious objects in the whole thousand million-fold world as offerings"
In general in India people were used to the hyperbole of religious enthusiasm and may have taken such exhortations as a rhetorical exaggeration of the imperative to ' be unattached'. Alternatively [...] they may well have seen such exceptionally brave, almost super-human Bodhisattva conduct as something they might be able to do in a future life if they begin now with more accessible practices. Nevertheless Chinese pilgrims to India do apparently describe cases where Buddhists engaged in mortifying the flesh and religious suicide, although further research may be necessary on these problematic texts before their evidence can be relied upon fully. But we know it happened in East Asian Buddhism, where from the early fifth century CE burning joints or the whole body as an act of devotion was taken very seriously indeed. James A. Benn's detailed study (2007a) shows that partial or complete self-immolation has been from quite early days in Chinese Buddhism to the present day by no means a minority or fringe activity
- Williams P, Mahayana Buddhism: The Doctrinal Foundations, p.160
all this sounds pretty extreme and not so much the middle way. but i don't want to immediately disparage what i know little of and don't understand. thoughts, views, comments?

The Larimer County Department of Health and Environment asks for the public's help in identifying areas where hazardous waste was deposited in the Buckhorn Canyon area from September flooding.
Residents of the Buckhorn Creek area (County Roads 44H and 27) should call 970-498-6775 to report hazardous waste that washed onto properties from the flood. This includes propane tanks, autos, 55 gallon drums, containers of chemicals or petroleum products, electric transformers, among others.
The Health Department is working with EPA contractors in identification of and safe removal and disposal of hazardous waste from floodwaters and adjacent impacted land. The department can arrange for the removal and disposal of only those hazardous materials that were washed up on to a property by the flood, not materials in a home or on an unaffected part of the property. Those should be taken to the County's landfill for disposal.
For more information on flood debris removal and other flood recovery information, visit http://larimer.org/flooding2013.

Reviews of this property
Appartamento molto carino e funzionale, vicinissimo alla stazione dei treni. pulito e cosa importantissima sia salvatore che il cugino (per eventuale ceck in fuori orario) parlano Italiano... consigliatissimo ..alla Prossima!
Bel appartamento , pulito , ordinato e arredato bene , zona tranquilla e vicino a tutti i servizi .
Proprietario molto disponibile per tutto .
Grazie salvatore
The flat was really clean and the rooms are cosy. We really enjoyed staying there. It was not complicated and really worth the price.
Studio sober but practical, well located and well equipped. Perfect for a small stays Nice couple.
Only default, the windows on the ground floor facing the street do not encourage to open the shutters.
But otherwise very good experience.
Studio sobre mais pratique, bien situé et bien équipé. Parfait pour un petit séjours à Nice en couple.
Seul défaut, les fenêtres au rez-de chaussé qui donnent sur la rue n'encouragent pas à ouvrir les volets.
Mais sinon, très bonne expérience.
nice living in the city, spacious but a bit far from the center, although with ttram within minutes you reach.
Unfortunately park in the district of rue de Dijon is almost impossible every night we had to spend nearly an hour wandering the nearby streets to find a free spot.
bel soggiorno in città, appartamento spazioso ma un pò lontano dal centro, anche se con il ttram in pochi minuti si raggiunge.
Purtroppo parcheggiare nel quartiere di rue de Dijon è quasi impossibile ogni sera abbiamo dovuto passare quasi un'ora in giro per le strade limitrofe per trovare un posto libero.
Reviews for this host's other properties
Bardzo mały pokój razem z kuchnią i sypialnia. Wszytko w malutkim pokoiku. Gorąco! Widok na obdrapane ściany budynku. Ale czysto i pościel ok. Łóżko słabe.
Salvatore was very nice and gave us some tips for Nice. He explained everything detailed and was trustworthy. The location and the apartment itself were ok but there was a huge problem with it: when you opened the window it smelled really bad, as if we were living in a cloaca ... We mentioned the problem to Salvatore and he said sorry and hopefully the bad smell vanished until the morning. It was the first night and we thought ok, we wait until the next morning. Because we couldn't open the window the apartment was very stuffy and we had only an electric fan which wasn't a big help. The next morning it was ok so we thought it was good now but soon the bad smell blew up again and it was useless to wait till the smell vanishes. In the four days we opened the window for about 5 minutes. In the corridor outside there was better air than inside the apartment. Unfortunately the apartment was not amazing but sunny all right.
Nice city was amazing and we had a lot of fun but the situation in the apartment ruined our holiday a little. We went unwillingly to the apartment and only to sleep. We left as early as possible and came back as late as possible. I hope the smell-problem is solved until the next guest arrives at the apartment otherwise they would have the same bad expirience like us.
Such a disappointment.
At the time we arrived to Nice, we had to meet Salvatore at the agency he works for. Salvatore was really kind with us and explained very well how to get to the apartment and some other things, such as supermarkets around the area, etc.
When we firstly got the apartment it looked pretty good, the apartment was setted up and clean.
A nasty smell came from the outside, we read about this smell in the street in other comments but did not really give it importance.
The smell was like a mix between cats pee and poo, which made us unable to open the window for the entire stay. To make it worse, the smell sometimes came from the bathroom. In addition, the apartment was very warm and humid. At least Salvatore had the detail of leaving a fan in the apartment.
Ein einfaches, kleines und gut gepflegtes Appartement. Ideal, um von hieraus in 2 Minuten mitten im Stadtzentrum zu sein.
El apartamento esta decorado con mucho gusto, tiene de todo y esta muy centrico. Hemos estado muy bien. Es un anfitrion que lo que enseña es lo que es. Gracias Salvatore

46% Percent Growth - But Economic Parity Remains
Between 2002 and 2007, the number of minority firms grew by 46 percent, compared to 18 percent for all U.S. firms, and compared to 13.7 percent growth for the minority population age 18 and older, during the same period. Minority-owned firms employed approximately 5.9 million people in 2007, up from 4.7 million in 2002.
Yet we still have work to do. It's encouraging that minority-owned firms are growing fast, but economic parity remains elusive. In 2007, average gross receipts for minority-owned firms increased $179,000 from $167,000 in 2002, still well below gross receipts for non-minority-owned firms, which had average gross receipts of $490,000.
To make sure minority communities and our overall economy is sound over the long-term; we need to ensure that the growth and competitiveness of the minority business community continues to be a national priority.

Just out of curiosity, how much do you pay for a "hot lunch" at your child's elementary school?
I'm in Las Vegas, NV area and I pay $1.85 for my 2nd grader's lunch when she purchases a hot lunch. Half the time she takes a cold lunch from home.
I thought that was a very reasonable price but curious what other prices are around the country.

Jealous of the Nanny
Hello fellow mums!
Is it immature and selfish that I get jealous of my nanny? Being a working mom, I never get to spend as much time with my daughter as the nanny. How do I maintain my authority as the mother? Or am I doing something wrong (aside from being immature)?

Dear gabsmum,
I'm sorry to read that you are feeling jealous.
I think it is a natural feeling; try not to feel guilty about your emotions. How much do you work during the week? Are you able to spend quality time with your daughter on your days off? I think that this is what will be key to maintaining healthy family relationships and, hopefully, reducing the jealousy that you feel towards your nanny.
Remember that you will always be your daughter's mum. No-one can change that. Plan special things to do in the time you spend together. It may help to plan it in advance so that you can both look forward to it. I remember from your other post that your daughter is almost two. You could get her a weekly calendar that you can write on with a wipe-off pen each week and draw pictures of the things you are going to do together on your time off.
Could you ask your nanny to show your daughter photos and videos of you whilst you are away (as long as this will not upset your daughter and make her miss you more) and keep up a dialogue throughout the day about you coming home and looking forward to seeing her when you get back from work etc?
I wonder if it would also help you if your nanny could send you a few picture messages through the day showing what your daughter is doing so you still feel involved in what she is doing day-to-day?
Remember that you are working to provide for your daughter. This is a wonderful gift to her. You can explain this to her and there are also books where the characters have working mums which may help. In today's society, so many mums need to work alongside caring for their children. What I feel is important is to make sure they are happy and well-cared for whilst we have to be away and then cherish every moment when we are together.
When you say 'how do I maintain my authority as the mother' - please could you expand on what you mean by this. What is concerning you? Does your nanny understand your parenting 'philosophy' and what this looks like in practice? I would say that this is essential. Consistency is so important but, more than this, you still want your daughter to be cared for with the greatest respect, interest and gentleness when you are away from her.
I hope this helps. Please do post back and let me know what you think and we can offer you some more suggestions.
Warm wishes,

I suggest you follow our official guide: Dual Boot maybe it will help you.
I just recently installed dual-boot system (Win 7 and BT4) on my laptop, Samsung Q430.
I managed successfully to install it the way I wanted it - when normally the notebook boot into windows, but if I press F1 during boot - it takes me to GRUB. This procces was involved with installation of EasyBCD, and a step-by-step guide will posted, if such will be wanted.
Now, my first question is actually a little problem with GRUB, which I can quote form another site, since I googling this problem and found the exact same problem in another site with no answer:
Source is over here.However, a minor issue is there. When I power on my netbook, I get grub menu for os selection. I select Ubuntu and netbook will reboot and I will get menu again. If I select Ubuntu again, system won't reboot this time and will get desktop. Next time after shutting down netbook, if I power on and select Ubuntu again, netbook won't reboot and will work fine.
Similarly, if I select WinXP, netbook will reboot for first time and selecting WinXP again will show window's improper shutdown screen and option to start in normal/safe mode. Selecting normal will work fine and I can login to XP too.
So actually issue is that if I select any OS from grub menu which isn't same as my last session, netbook will reboot once and I need to select that OS again.
I haven't encountered such issue earlier ever. If it require any change in default grub config ?
Second, I want to know how to skip the GRUB boot-menu, and cause it to boot stright into BT, even tho I have 2 OS on my laptop.
Any info will be much appreciated.
I suggest you follow our official guide: Dual Boot maybe it will help you.
Back|track giving machine guns to monkeys since 2007 !
Do not read the Wiki, most your questions will not be answered there !
Do not take a look at the: Forum Rules !
I can follow the official guide, which is great BTW, but this will not help me.
This problem occured even with the LiveCD, so I belive this has nothing to do with the installation process.
Thank you anyway.
Maby u have a corrupt distro, burn another directly from Backtrack-linux site. Also pay attention to the partition management if you do it manually.
It seems the problem may be with where you place the grub bootloader.
If u can boot bt then in bt open shell and type
this should fix all the boot issues.
First, thanks for the answer.
Second - I don't think that the reason is "corrupt distro", since:
A. The exact same disc worked very well on anthoer machines, giving no problems at all.
B. As I reffered before - I saw some messages regarding boot problems with Samsung computers, describing the exact problem that I have.
Therfore, I think the problem is in the way Samsung built their custom-boot manager.
I'd like to know if anybody ran into this problem b4, and was able to solve it.
(Oh, and I don't think 'update-grub' will help me neither. I've installed GRUB on the same partiton of BT, and I don't want it to be installed to the main MBR.)
I'd like to know why my windows 7 partition always has to run a check disk after I reboot from BT to win 7. I am assuming it's cause one of the partitions is a expandable partition most likely the swap area. Am I close? how to I make it a set amount permanently?

Pair cited for possession, might face pot sales charges
November 16, 2012
A man and a woman might be facing marijuana sales charges after Grass Valley Police officers responded to a report of suspicious activity at 49er Fun Park.
An alert citizen who knew all the businesses were closed at the time called in the report at about 8:30 p.m. Saturday, said Grass Valley Police officer Clint Bates. Officers responded and found Michael Alan Kryzopolski, 30, and Carrie Brown in a vehicle that was parked in the lot at the fun park on Railroad Avenue.
A search of Kryzopolski allegedly uncovered marijuana hash, a pipe and a syringe, Bates said. He was arrested on suspicion of possession of concentrated cannabis and drug paraphernalia, as well as committing a felony while on bail. He was being held in county jail in lieu of $11,000 bail.
Brown was cited on suspicion of driving on a suspended license, possessing more than one ounce of marijuana and violating probation.
Officers subsequently recovered 1 1/4 pounds of marijuana that had been stashed in some adjacent bushes, Bates said. A follow-up investigation determined there was a suspected drug deal occurring at that location, and both suspects will face additional charges of possessing a controlled substance for sale.
