But it's about being comfortable with yourself whether the hair on your chest is trendy or not. Hopefully, it becomes less about your outer shell and more about your mind. Most bears I know tend to be more intellectual; have better taste in music, art, and film; and tend to be creative in general."

Matthew: "It means being comfortable in your own skin and not feeling like you need to look or act a certain way just because you're gay. The bear community is so laid-back and accepting."
Hunt these bears this weekend! Both: At Ty's Bar and various Urban Bear events.

An unfortunate turn
By WillyD
from Los Angeles, CA
The first problem I encountered was that the door would not stay shut. It took close examination to determine that magnets attached to the body needed to be glued to the door.Second problem is lack of illumination. It may be fast to scan pictures, but each photo absolutely requires editing to increase brightness.

If I say "controlling items on your screen simply by using hand gestures," your first thought is likely the movie "Minority Report," right? Well, Leap Motion's new UI device and software will do that soon if you'd like. But the company is thinking even bigger.
Leap Motion's vision is not merely to replace the mouse or the touchscreen, but to tear down the idea that you have to interact with your computing devices via some other piece of hardware. You don't grab a mouse or poke a screen. You just move your hands in 3D space, as this promo video shows:
Leap Motion has no real interest in selling anything beyond the device itself, which is a small piece of hardware (about half the width and double the thickness of an iPod) that connects to your PC or Mac via USB. (The company is pursuing a wireless version for future release.) A bit of software runs in the background, and that's it.
The rest is up to developers. Leap wants them to show the potential -- and push the limits -- of the interface. "We're a platform, not just a piece of technology," says Michael Zagorsek, Leap's vice president of product marketing. "Developers will realize the full potential of this via apps."
When Leap Motion was introduced last fall, the product website posed a still-standing question to developers: "What would you do with this?" Developers who respond with an interesting pitch get a Leap Motion test unit. The baseline language for the Leap API is C++, but the company is constantly revising its SDK based on dev feedback. It has already been able to provide wrappers for Unity, Objective-C, and Javascript, leading to a range of games (Unity), ports of iOS apps (Objective-C), and websites (JavaScript) leveraging Leap, and the company is looking to add a wrapper for Android as well. [Ed. note: An earlier version of this story said that Leap had not yet added wrappers for Unity, Objective-C, and JavaScript; this paragraph has been updated with the correct info.]
As for the interface itself, it worked quite well in the prototype I got a chance to use. You can point with your finger or any sort of wand (a pencil, a drumstick, or -- heck -- an actual magician's wand if you want to be funny about it) and get a single cursor on the screen. You can wave your whole hand over the interface and get five cursors, or you can use both hands for 10 cursors. There is no lag to speak of, which makes for seamless, reliable control.
To be frank, it's fun. Leap frequently demos games that serve to help new users get acclimated to the control system: fruit-slicing games that ask you to slash your finger across the screen, a round of virtual Jenga that hinges on the precision of your thumb-and-forefinger pinch as well as the angle of your hand, and even virtual modeling clay, which points to the obvious CAD ramifications for the controller.
But even in fairly staid apps, the cool factor is undeniable, as is the tendency to start dreaming about what else could be done with 10 cursors (we have not yet begun to multitask!).
Which, again, brings it back to developers. Leap is counting on them to make the business and consumer cases for the controller. "We want to see as many different kinds of apps, rather than redundant apps," says Zagorsek, and that could be anything from data manipulation à la "Minority Report" to a task as simple as a page turn when your hands are dirty and you don't want to touch your screen, keyboard, or mouse.
Leap Motion has signed a deal with Asus to bundle the controller with high-end notebooks later this year, and its road map calls for integrating the controller into more laptops as well as into mobile devices such as tablets and possibly smartphones.
The Leap Motion controller is availabile for pre-order now and is due for retail release later this year. The company is still recruiting developers on its website as well.

Banks and resources stocks have pulled the Australian sharemarket lower following sell-offs overseas.
Bell Direct equities analyst Julia Lee said materials stocks had been some of the worst performers as commodity prices fell overnight.
"Trading today has been all about the banks and materials stocks dragging down the market," Ms Lee said.
"Iron ore is not looking too good and nickel prices have experienced some big falls overnight."
Ms Lee said there had been a breakdown in the usual correlation between the bond markets and equity markets.
"That's usually a bit of a red flag," she said.
Equity markets were doing well as bond yields fell.
The local market had again struggled to hold above 5500 points after closing higher on Thursday.
Weak European economic growth figures for the March quarter, a decline in US manufacturing activity and weak financial results from retail giant Walmart prompted a move to safe haven assets.
Mining giant BHP Billiton fell 18 cents to $38.08, Rio Tinto was down 86 cents at $61.95 and Fortescue Metals was 12 cents lower at $4.58.
Nickel miner Western Areas fell 22 cents to $4.15.
Commonwealth Bank also slipped after hitting record highs this week, dropping 80 cents to $80.40.
Westpac lost 20 cents to $34.28, ANZ was down 26 cents at $32.94 and National Australia Bank was 10 cents lower at $33.49.
Financial adviser IOOF was a standout performer after revealing a takeover deal with smaller rival SFG Australia, with its shares adding 12 cents to $8.25.
* At the close on Friday, the benchmark S&P/ASX200 index was 31.8 points, or 0.58 per cent, lower at 5,479.0.
* The broader All Ordinaries index was down 31.3 points, or 0.57 per cent, at 5,458.9.
* The June share price index futures contract was 37 points lower at 5,488, with 16,122 contracts traded.
* The price of gold in Sydney was $US1294.60 per fine ounce, down $US7.8 from Thursday's closing price of $US1,302.40.
* National turnover was 1.1 billion securities worth $2.5 billion.

Toby Keith prepping for annual fundraiser & USO tour
Listen to Toby Keith on iHeartRadio
Toby Keith has a couple of special events on the horizon. The country star is making plans for his tenth annual Toby Keith & Friends Golf Classic. The event will once again start off with an evening gala for golfers and guests, who'll enjoy fine food and entertainment including live and silent auctions.
The next day golfers will hit the course at the Belmar Golf Club in Norman, Oklahoma. But Toby says this year's event will be a little different from previous years. He explains that their tenth anniversary event is "really a "thank you" to all of those people who have supported us over the years."
Money raised through the event will fund the new OK Kids Korral, a facility Keith is developing with the Oklahoma University Medical Center for young patients and their families. The 10th annual Toby Keith & Friends Golf Classic is scheduled for May 10th and 11th.
Before hosting his charity event, Toby once again show his support for the troops with a USO Tour. The singer will visit the Philippines, Guam, and Hawaii on the trek, which he'll launch this Saturday.

Hello, I am planning on putting BT (live install) on a 1gig flash drive.
My question is, when I boot from the 1gig flash drive, is there a way to make the files I save save to the harddrive? Reason is pretty obvious; I don't have much more room on the flash drive.
Or am I completely off to begin with?
I just did this.
I used Partition Magic to create a partition on my windows drive as a EXT2 partition. then in the cfg and bootinst file and it works awesome. it really does.
Balding Parrot did an amazing tut on this procedure
the procedure is just for one larger usb drive, but you can use the steps to do this on the usb/hdd combo too.
just letting you know it can and is being done...
The wise man can pick up a grain of sand and envision a whole universe. But the stupid man will just lay down on some seaweed and roll around until he's completely draped in it. Then he'll stand up and go: Hey, I'm Vine Man.

Study Finds Major Gaps in School Safety and Security
The Idaho State Department of Education released its findings on Feb. 12 that summarize assessments done on approximately 10% of its schools. What was discovered is disturbing and most likely applies to K-12 schools across the country. Areas of particular concern include access control, visitor management, key control, communications, emergency operations plans, backup power, teacher and staff training, as well as student and/or parent involvement in safety planning, among many other things.
Rather than use these results to bash Idaho, I'd like to applaud its officials for embarking on such thorough safety and security assessments of its school buildings. Not only that, they should be praised for having the dedication to transparency to make the findings public. Those of us in the campus protection field know we can't address our campus safety and security weaknesses until we know what they are. Studies like the ones done in the Potato State that shed light on strengths and weaknesses are the first step.
The Idaho assessments showed that the average amount of time an assessor was inside each school before being contacted and asked to report to the office was just under 10 minutes. In 19 of the 74 schools that were visited, the assessment team member was not contacted at all and self-reported to the office. Additionally, only 29 of the 74 schools had classroom doors that can be locked from the inside with hardware meeting fire code.
In 62 schools, communications were sufficient for daily operations; however, in most cases a power outage would render the systems non-operational. Additionally, the general lack of a comprehensive communications plan at both the school and district levels assures that communications will be a major impediment to effective emergency operations.
The assessment also found that only five schools include parents and/or students in safety planning and/or policy development. Only five out of the 74 schools that were assessed have some type of anonymous reporting system. When it comes to training, only 11 schools have key staff trained in NIMS/ICS procedures.
There is no way to sugarcoat these findings. To put it gently, they are cause for significant concern. To put it bluntly, they are downright scary.
That being said, I know the problems found in this study aren't limited to the state of Idaho. I challenge other states to take the bull by the horns and conduct similar studies of their K-12 campuses. It wouldn't surprise me at all if they discover very similar and disturbing protection gaps. Only then will we truly be able to address our school safety and security challenges.
Below are some of the specific findings of the Idaho state-wide assessment:
Access control and visitor management:
- In 71 of 74 schools that were inspected, unauthorized entrance was achieved through access points other than the designated main entrance. In 66 schools, multiple points of ingress were available.
- The average amount of time an assessor was in the interior of a school before being contacted and asked to report to the office was just under 10 minutes at 9.43 minutes. In 19 cases, the assessment team member was not contacted and self-reported to the office.
- The designated points of entry are monitored to control building access in 37 of 74 sample schools.
- School staff members monitor all entrances and exits during student arrival and departure in 40 of 74 schools.
- Doors required to be open for student passage are monitored in 28 of the 74 study schools.
- 40 of the schools in the sample had exit doors equipped with push bar exit devices that are flush to resist chaining.
- Classroom doors can be locked from the inside with hardware meeting fire code in only 29 of the sample schools.
- 42 schools have a policy that requires classroom doors are either locked or unlocked; 32 have no policy regarding such.
- Of the 41 schools that had either portables or nonadjacent buildings, 20 have a policy that requires locked or unlocked doors, leaving 21 campuses with no policy.
Key control:
- In 31 cases there was no master key control policy.
- In 45 cases keys could not be matched to the person issued the key.
- In 43 cases keys could be duplicated without great difficulty.
- In 65 cases the policy had no previsions for when doors should be re-keyed.
Video surveillance:
- In 33 cases the equipment would be considered obsolete.
- In no case would the current installation be considered adequate coverage of the building interior.
Communications and backup power:
- In 62 of 74 cases communications were sufficient for daily operations; however, in most cases a power outage renders systems non-operational (includes public address systems and internet protocol-based phone systems).
- The general lack of a comprehensive communications plan at both the school and district levels assure that communications will be a major impediment to effective emergency operations.
CPR and AEDs:
- Only 15 schools have a current list of staff trained in CPR and/or AED use.
Emergency operations plans (EOP):
- 24 of the 74 schools assessed have an EOP that is multi-hazard.
- 18 schools have an EOP that contains ICS and is NIMS compliant
- 40 schools report integrating local law enforcement in their EOP planning.
- 25 schools include school floor plans, site plans, and utility location.
- 32 EOPs identify an established chain of command and 20 designate an incident command post with alternative location.
Disciplinary procedures:
49 of the schools assessed have developed systematic problem solving strategies.
Parent and student involvement in safety planning:
- 5 Schools include parents and/or students in safety planning and/or policy development.
- Student involvement in building positive climates and participating in extracurricular activities happens in 42 and 36 schools respectively
- Only 5 of the 74 schools have some type of anonymous reporting system.
- 11 schools have key staff trained in NIMS/ICS procedures.
- 19 schools provide annual training in conflict resolution and problem solving
- 22 schools train annually for bullying prevention.
- 6 buildings have received some level of training in recognizing suspicious packages and items
- 29 have received training in recognizing suspicious people and behavior on campus.
- 34 schools report that staff has been trained on recognizing student threats in notes, journals, classwork and conversation.
- 41 of the school's office staff has been trained in threatening suspicious phone calls/bomb threats.
- 29 schools report that students have been specifically trained on issues of sexual harassment and gender respect.
- 9 schools report that their students have received specific training on dating violence.
- 25 schools report Title IX coordination for students and staff.
- 19 schools have trained their substitute staff on emergency operations procedures.
- 39 schools have staff members who have been trained to identify and work with potentially dangerous students.
- 26 schools have some type of formal mental health threat assessment process.
- Incident reporting:
Staff and student training:

Nobody said evolution was easy. Just look at the Crood family, a caveman clan; every day is like re-inventing the wheel. Or in this case, inventing it.
"The Croods" is an animated feature about a prehistoric family living in fear of the dark and unaware of the uses of fire. Ah, but their rambunctious daughter Eep (voiced by Emma Stone) is one of those curious types who just have to know what life is like outside the cave.
And that's where this fun movie takes us, as the Croods are uprooted from their safety zone and forced into an unfamiliar world that looks vaguely like outtakes from "Avatar." A journey story, a little love interest and many cute animals lie in the Croods' future.
While "The Croods" is not a Disney movie — it's faster and more aggressive than that — it does carry the obligatory themes of life experience. In this case, it's about the clan's father, Grug (Nicolas Cage), learning to shake off his fear-based attitude and embrace the unknown.
A decent theme, and a lively execution, lively enough so you're not too often hammered over the head with it. And hammering the head is an appropriate image for this movie's style, which emphasizes how indestructible its characters are by flinging them across canyons and dropping them from cliffs.
Directors Kirk De Micco and Chris Sanders have clearly watched a lot of old Warner Bros. cartoons, and the ghosts of Daffy Duck and Wile E. Coyote are here in spirit. This thing has real zing and some of the physical gags are very funny.
If you cast Cage as a (literally) low-brow caveman, you can expect some eccentric vocal readings. He mostly plays it straight, but there are some definite Cage-isms mixed in there, to good effect.
Catherine Keener voices his long-suffering wife, and Ryan Reynolds is a human in the next stage of evolution who takes a liking to Eep. Clark Duke does the voice of the dim-witted Crood son, and the cranky Grandma is played by — hey, how'd you guess Cloris Leachman?
The voices are funny and the movie's got an expert sense of timing. The slick animation is occasionally startling (that giant saber-tooth cat creature can really haul) even if it feels generally superficial; I saw it previewed in 3-D, which is clever but not showy.
"The Croods" doesn't dig deep, and it doesn't mean to. This ain't Pixar, but it's an enjoyable romp through a backward, knuckle-dragging era that ought to be over in another thousand years or so.
"The Croods"
3 stars
A fun animated romp set in prehistory, where a caveman (voiced by Nicolas Cage) argues with his rebellious daughter (Emma Stone) about adventures outside the cave. Not exactly deep, but the comedy timing is good and the physical humor is a throwback to old Warner Bros. cartoons.
Rated: PG for subject matter.
Showing: Alderwood Seven, Cinebarre, Edmonds, Everett Stadium, Galaxy Monroe, Marysville, Olympic, Stanwood, Pacific Place, Thornton Place, Woodinville, Blue Fox, Cascade, Oak Harbor.

From what I understand, virus software has basically white listed anything that is python. I think that because just like java, they can't tell one python from the other to determine if it is malicious or not. They would have to ban all java and python.
So the theory is that by putting shellcode in the python script, you can evade anti-virus. You can go one step further and use py-installer and create an executable from your python script so that it can be run on the victim's computer. (without python installed)
Yes you can run run poison Ivy as a python array. I have not tried it, but that was the reason behind it.
Exporting to a python array is simply exporting a bunch of code that you can copy and paste into your python script. You will need a python script that can load shell code.
So your task if you choose to accept it:
1. export shell code from poison ivy
2. find a python script that can run the python shell code generated from poison ivy to connect back to poison ivy command center.
3. get the above working standalone
4. use Py-Installer to create an executable from the above.
5. Automate all the above using a python script
And of course report back here on your progress so that we can help and learn from your experiences.

Brevard, N.C. - The Brevard College athletics department along with head volleyball coach Brenda Skeffington are pleased to announce that Bethany Anne Stevenson and Jamie Atkinson have each signed a National Letter of Intent to attend Brevard College and play volleyball for the Tornados beginning in the 2009-10 season.
Stevenson, hailing from Prattville, Ala., comes in as a setter. The 5-8 performer was ranked fourth on the National MaxPreps Aces list with 214 this past year and is in the AHSAA record book for aces in the season and ended her high school career with 529. In her senior campaign under Jenny Rhodes and Lindsay Ellis at Prattville High School, Stevenson recorded 798 assists to go with 176 digs and 23 blocks. For her career, Stevenson was named to the All Metro First team in 2006 and 2007 and was on the All-State list in 2007.
Academically, Stevenson was an honors student and was on the National Honor Roll, as well as being a member of the National Honor Society.
Atkinson, a 6-0 right side hitter, comes to Brevard from Spartanburg, S.C. from Broome High School. Under head coach Pam Peeler, Atkinson was an All-Region and an All-State player for three years, as well being the Region 2-AA Player of the Year for three years. Atkinson was recently named MVP in the SC State All-State 1A-2A match at Lander University.
The Broome senior class in which Atkinson is a part of, has been a part of three straight Region II-2A championships and one upper state title team. It will also be their third straight appearance in the upper state finals.
Atkinson also played basketball and softball for the Centurions, receiving the Best Defense award in basketball.
Brevard posted a 14-17 record in 2008, making post-season play in their first year in the South Atlantic Conference.

Bowhunting help needed
Hey Guys - I'm doing research for a class and also interested in just learning more about bowhunting myself. Could you help me out by answering these questions? (1) how long have you been hunting? (2) what technologies are important to you when choosing a bow? (3) what bow do you currently shoot? Thanks!!
I have only been hunting for 4 years now.
As far as technologies that are important when choosing a bow or any archery products is mostly personal preference. I did just research and buy a new hunting bow and the biggest thing for me was the speed and weight. I wanted a new bow that was lighter and shot faster. The speed is all in the cams but if the cam has too big of a "hump" it won't draw or shoot as smooth but it will be fast. After going to a few archery pro shops I decided the right bow for me was a PSE Stinger 3G. I hope this helps you. If you have anymore questions feel free to ask.

Bow hunting since 1975. Technologies? I don't care how they make it or what from, as long as it's durable, shootable, and tunable. Hitting the spot at the moment is what matters. Hitting somewhere else is not. I lean towards longer ATA bows, speed is not a deal breaker for me. I've never hunted in open areas, only woods, so shots are usually 20 yards or less. Short ATA bows don't do it for me, they seem too twitchy. I'm a 6 footer with a 75" wing span so others might feel different.
I currently hunt with a Mathews Rival Pro, a deflex older bow, and a Maitland Zeus, an up to date parrallel limb bow. Both are about 40" ATA. Both shoot great, but I find the single cam Mathews easier to tune than the cam.5 Maitland. I still can't see why cam.5 or binary cams are better. They offer less in adjustment . You can't tweek and tune like on a single or a twin. If I could come up with the $$ I'd try an OK Archery dual cam shoot-through. It's cams are an updated design of Martins, on a modern, more parallel limb bow. 4 cables, 1 string. sounds intimidating, but very adjustable and predictable. Keep it simple, aim small, hit the spot, meat in the freezer. That's what bowhunting is supposed to be, not winging arrows at every deer you see and bragging to your buddies about how many you hit.FBSA Member
About 40yrs; Technology is a little vague, I shoot what works for me; This year Martin MOAB, next year Bear Grizzly (I hope)!Bear Grizzly, Beman Centershot/Steelforce , Legacy Quiver

Parents Fall Off Cliff as Kids Snap Picture
(NEWSER) – A Polish couple visiting Cabo da Roca in Portugal wanted the typical tourist photo of themselves at the end of Europe. So they handed their kids the camera, crossed safety barriers to reach the edge of the cliff—and fell 450 feet to their deaths while their children tried to take the picture, reports the Portugal Resident. "They were traumatized. It is the kind of thing they will never forget," a security guard tells the paper. A Spanish couple witnessed the incident Saturday and pulled the children, aged 5 and 6, from the cliff edge, then alerted local authorities. The children are now receiving counseling and are with Polish diplomats, the Telegraph adds. The bodies of the couple—believed to be in their 40s—were found Sunday; a search for them was delayed Saturday by weather, reports Polskie Radio.

There's already a thread about that here.
Just search for it.
I've used Nessus off and on but never in ernest. I am now considering buying the plugin feed.
I've recently started to check out backtrack and noticed that it came with OpenVAS which is said to be a fork of Nessus.
Does anyone have any opinion on Nesus vs OpenVAS?
Thanks in advance.
There's already a thread about that here.
Just search for it.
I did search. I have been searching - I am continuing to search.
No, no, please don't tell me where it is.
Further more it is not our job to tell you which is a better product.
One costs money for all features the other is free as in speech. One has more "feeds" than the other but that is do to the price.
If you have the need and money then by the product if you are using nessus as a hobby then stick with the free versions.
To be successful here you should read all of the following.
If you are new to Back|Track
Back|Track Wiki
Failure to do so will probably get your threads deleted or worse.
I'm a compulsive post editor, you might wanna wait until my post has been online for 5-10 mins before quoting it as it will likely change.
I know I seem harsh in some of my replies. SORRY! But if you're doing something illegal or posting something that seems to be obvious BS I'm going to call you on it.

Falwell denied his habit of comparing homosexuality to bestiality, crack addiction
During an interview with CNN anchor Anderson Cooper, fundamentalist Baptist pastor and Moral Majority founder Reverend Jerry Falwell [1] denied ever having equated homosexuality to "smoking crack and bestiality" -- a comparison Falwell has in fact made on several occasions.
From the November 5 edition of CNN's Anderson Cooper 360:
COOPER: I know in the past you believe homosexual behavior is immoral, a sin, you've equated it with smoking crack, bestiality. But what is the threat to you? What is -- I mean, two men saying that they love each to each other, what's the threat?
FALWELL: Well, I haven't equated it to anything, but I believe that the scripture makes it clear that all sexual activity outside of marriage between a man and a woman is wrong, whether it's heterosexual promiscuity or homosexual activity.
COOPER: On homosexuality, I mean, you say you don't equate it to anything, but you do equate it to -- I mean, you have in plenty of interviews equated it to, you know, immoral behavior, smoking crack and bestiality.
FALWELL: Well, it is immoral behavior, of course. No, not bestiality, not crack -- taking crack. Those are different things, but homosexuality is sin.
Following are examples of Falwell equating homosexuality with smoking crack and bestiality:
• FALWELL: Well, look, first of all, Mr. Bush did not make this a 2004 issue. The Massachusetts Supreme Court did, the San Francisco mayor, the New Mexico officials, et cetera. This was made an issue when the Supreme Court gave constitutional protection to sodomy. So here we have now same-sex marriage. What's next, polygamy? ... Why not? And why not bestiality? [CNN, Wolf Blitzer Reports, 2/24/04]
• FALWELL: I don't want anybody in my bedroom any more than you want anybody in your bedroom. But I think this privacy issue goes too far. Is this right to privacy going to legalize prostitution, or bestiality, or the use of cocaine or heroin as long as you do it in your bedroom? Privacy can be taken to a great extent. ... [I]f we're going to do that, then why don't we just legalize bestiality since it's done in the privacy of one's home, perhaps? [MSNBC, Hardball, 6/27/03]
• INTERVIEWER: Then when you say, "Love the sinner but not the sin," aren't you saying that person is "less than?"
FALWELL: Absolutely not. We work with and help crack and alcohol abusers. That's not saying "You're less than." But we're saying that, right now, you're about to reduce yourself to where you cannot be useful, and where you have no joy in life...
INTERVIEWER: And most gays would say that being gay has nothing to do with living on crack.
FALWELL: It depends on the gay you're talking to. I could bring to you literally thousands of ex-gays who would tell you that they were in a destructive lifestyle until they came to Christ and got out of it. [PBS, Frontline [2], 2/15/00]
• In the latest letter, the Baptist minister [Falwell] said more money must be received to keep the Moral Majority newspaper and broadcasts going. "Perhaps the most disturbing situation is that our lobbying effort in Washington, D.C., to keep Congress from legalizing sodomy, bestiality, fornication, homosexuality and other perversions is also in danger," the letter added. [Associated Press, 10/23/81]
Falwell has a history of denying his own inflammatory remarks regarding homosexuality. In 1985, Falwell publicly denied having verbally attacked a gay community church until a videotape showed Falwell calling members of the church "brute beasts" and "part of a vile and satanic system [that] will one day be utterly annihilated," the Associated Press reported on September 25, 1985. When Falwell was ordered to pay $5,000 to a former pastor of the church, he responded: "This situation is only one more example of harassment by a militant homosexual group."
In addition to his roles as a pastor and Moral Majority founder, Falwell is chancellor [3] of Liberty University [4], operates the Liberty Channel [5] cable and satellite network, publishes the National Liberty Journal [6], and writes a weekly column [7] published by conservative news outlets such as WorldNetDaily.com [8] and NewsMax.com [9]. Falwell endorsed President George W. Bush's reelection.

Hello, I am completely new to Backtrack and I am trying to get wireless working on my ASUS 1001p netbook. I have had no luck at all. If I connect it to a wired connection is the eth0 will work. However, if I do an iwconfig all I see is lo and eth0. No wlan0 ever shows up. My netbook has the atheros chipset for wireless. I had installed the latest version of Ubuntu and had to make and install the latest ath9k drivers in order to get wireless working at all. I was hoping that I could do the same on backtrack 4. Sadly, it dd not work.
Any help getting the wireless working on my asus eee 1001p netbook is greatly appreciated.

"I don't know when or how my interest—really, my obsession—with Sudan started," says Obakki designer Treana Peake. "Some girls dream of going to the Oscars. But even though I'd never been there, I dreamed of Sudan. It was my inspiration, it was my mission… it was my emotional soundtrack."
Seven years after Peake created her label, she's helped build over 300 wells in The Republic of South Sudan—a newly-formed country that's hopeful, but scarred from years of brutal war crimes.
This season, the Canadian designer recruited brand ambassadors directly linked to her label—a group of fashion models who hail from the African country. ELLE.com went behind-the-scenes at Peake's Manhattan showroom to get an exclusive glimpse of Obakki's fashion video shoot—and to interview five of the line's new faces.

SUNRISE, Fla. – The Saint Leo men's cross country team concluded the 2011 Sunshine State Conference Championships with a fifth-place finish tallying 133 points, Saturday morning from Markham Park.
The meet, hosted by Nova Southeastern University, saw Brian Haynes finish as the Lions' top competitor in the 61-person field as he set a new personal-best for an 8K race finishing with a time of 27:15.05. The 16th-place finish is the second fastest 8K time in program history. As a team, the Lions finished fifth in the six-team field.
Jeff Van Natter solidified himself with a 40th-place finish as he concluded the run just over the 30-minute mark at 30:03.98. Kevin Papac also registered an impressive time of 30:29.00.
Closing-out the Lions group was Justin Prengaman, David Malys, and Matt Urbaniak. Prengaman boasted a time of 30:54.47, while Malys and Urbaniak registered times of 31:19.88 and 32:04.15, respectively.
Overall, Tampa won its first ever Sunshine State Conference Men's Cross Country Championship, and Florida Tech's Moses Kirui (25:46.60) was the top individual finisher.
Tampa posted 40 points to hold off 14-time defending champion Florida Southern, which placed second with 48 points. The Moccasins had won every SSC men's cross country title since 1997.
