LONG BEACH - The Long Beach Airport and surrounding businesses provide 43,000 jobs and have pumped more than $11 billion into the region, according to an economic impact report released Wednesday.
The Airport Area Complex - which includes Boeing Co.'s C-17 plant - also provides an indirect boon to the local economy through hotel stays and other benefits, according Cal State Long Beach economics professor Joseph P. Magaddino, who co-authored the report with colleague Lisa M. Grobar.
"It's a pretty impressive number," he said. "The airport is a pretty strong engine for economic growth not only for the city but the region as a whole."
The airport alone provides 18,000 jobs, which accounts for 9 percent of all jobs in Long Beach, according to the report.
"The Long Beach Airport is a powerful economic engine that supports thousands of well-paying jobs," Mayor Bob Foster said in a written statement. "The airport is not only important to Long Beach, but vital to the entire region's economic growth."
The authors studied the airport region that is bordered by the San Diego (405) Freeway, Carson Street and Clark and Cherry avenues.
Businesses within the area generate annual payroll of $1.4billion and total regional earnings of more than $2.6 billion. The average annual wage for the airport area is about $78,165, much of it because of the high-paying manufacturing jobs at Boeing, the report stated.
The city-commissioned report, the second airport area study to be issued by the college since 2003, is seen as a bright spot in the midst of an economic downturn and as the city struggles with multimillion dollar budget deficits and a declining but still high unemployment rate of 12.2 percent.
"It makes things much better in what has been a very, very bad economic time," said Long Beach Airport Director Mario Rodriguez.
The report, based on 2011 data, focused mainly on the Long Beach Airport and its regional economic impact. About 60 percent of all tickets bought at the airport come from people or firms in Los Angeles County, while 35 percent come from Orange County and 5 percent elsewhere.
Also, Magaddino and Grobar estimated that 59,000 overnight visitors used the airport in 2011, spent $26.6 million on hotel costs and $24.4 million on restaurants, retail and entertainment. Meanwhile, flight crews shelled out $1.2 million on hotels and another $1.2 million in other costs.
Combined, they spent $53.4million in the city, according to the report.
In 2011, the airport generated $32.6 million in fees and revenues related to parking, fix-base operators, car rentals and landing fees.
Magaddino said the most surprising part of the airport has been the airport's ongoing passenger growth, despite the economic downturn. The airport, which serves about 3 million passengers annually, saw its share of the region's passenger traffic jump from 4.0 to 4.7percent from 2006 to 2011.
The Long Beach Airport could grow to 3.8 million passengers annually by 2030, according to the Southern California Association of Governments, which is the region's major transportation planning agency.
Growth, however, is limited by a noise ordinance that caps the airport at 41 commercial and 25 commuter daily flights.
"The airport, even during the most difficult economic times where airlines typically saw a big drop in ridership, this airport keeps plugging along," Magaddino said.
He credited that to the airport's central location, good management, ease of entering and exiting the facility, and its low rates.
"All those things work towards its advantage," he said.
Construction has also been an economic boost to the city, with the airport undergoing more than $120 million in major construction upgrades, including upgrading ramps, renovating its historic terminal and building a new passenger concourse and parking structure. This construction has and will produce more than 300 jobs annually through 2014.
"If you look at what we are trying to do, we are trying to provide an unrivaled gateway to the city of Long Beach," Rodriguez said. "We're making the airport like a red carpet to the city.
"Everything that we're doing we're doing with great care, everything from the look of the airport to make it a resort-type feel to the finances of the airport by getting costs low."
Without the airport, many businesses in the city of Long Beach that wouldn't be here, Rodriguez said.
"We want to make sure that we provide the right services to the business community to make sure that the economy here stays as vibrant as possible," he said.

Brevard, N.C. - The Brevard College women's basketball team added five new players to their roster during the offseason. The 2010-11 Tornados brought in a pair of transfer students and three freshmen student-athletes to their squad this season.
Brevard adds two transfer sophomore student athletes to the team. Candace Fritz and Micheala Watkins both come to BC after serving their freshman seasons with other basketball programs in the area.
Fritz is a native of North East, Maryland and attended UNC-Asheville for her freshman year. Fritz is a 5-11 forward who appeared in eight games for the Bulldogs last season, starting in three. Watkins comes to Brevard after spending her first year at Catawba Valley Community College where she enjoyed great success. The 5-6 guard is from Forest City, N.C. and was named the team MVP and earned all-region honors while playing for Catawba Valley CC in 2009-10.
Brevard also added three freshmen to their team for the upcoming season. Chezney McJunkin of Easley, S.C. is a 5-8 guard that should provide good competition at guard with her size and skill. McJunkin was named to the all-region team while playing at Pickens High School.
Jazzmin Brown is a 5-4 guard from Salisbury, N.C. is coming off of a successful high school career at Carson High School. Brown was also a member of the Carson High School track and field team.
The Tornados also added some size in their incoming freshmen class by picking up 6-1 Jennifer Martin of Asheboro, N.C. Martin should provide a big post presence for the Tornados in upcoming seasons.
These five newcomers are added to the roster of 11 returning players including three starters.

Gastric bypass surgery - dischargeBariatric surgery - gastric bypass - discharge; Roux-en-Y gastric bypass - discharge; Gastric bypass- Roux-en-Y - discharge
You had gastric bypass surgery to help you lose weight. Your surgeon used staples to divide your stomach into a small upper section, called a pouch, and a larger bottom section. Then your surgeon sewed a section of your small intestine to a small opening in this small stomach pouch. The food you eat will now go into your small stomach pouch, then into your small intestine.
You probably spent1 to3 days in the hospital. When you go home you will be eating liquids or puréed foods. You should be able to move around without too much problem.
What to Expect at Home
You may have a catheter (tube) coming from the larger part of your stomach that was bypassed. It will come out of your side and will drain fluids that build up in your belly. This will be taken out in about 4 to 6 weeks.
You will lose weight quickly over the first 3 to 6 months. During this time, you may have body aches, feel tired and cold, have dry skin, mood changes, and hair loss or hair thinning. These problems should go away as your body gets used to your weight loss and your weight becomes stable. Because of this quick weight loss, you will need to be careful that you get all of the nutrition and vitamins you need as you recover.
Weight loss slows down after 12 to 18 months.
You will remain on liquid or puréed food for 2 or 3 weeks after surgery. You will slowly add soft foods and then regular food, as your nutritionist told you to do. Remember to eat small portions and chew each bite very slowly and completely.
Do not eat and drink at the same time. Drink fluids 30 minutes after you eat food. Drink slowly. Sip when you are drinking. Do not gulp. Your doctor may tell you not to use a straw, as it may bring air into your stomach.
Your doctor, nurse, or dietitian will teach you about foods that you should eat and foods you should stay away from.
Being active soon after surgery will help you recover more quickly. During the first week:
- Start walking after surgery. Move around the house and shower, and use the stairs at home.
- If it hurts when you do something, stop doing that activity.
If you have laparoscopic surgery, you should be able to do most of your regular activities in 2to 4 weeks. It may take up to 12 weeks if you have open surgery.
Before this time, do NOT:
- Lift anything heavier than 10to 15 pounds until you see your doctor
- Do any activity that involves pushing or pulling
- Push yourself too hard. Increase how much you exercise slowly
- Drive or use machinery if you are taking narcotic pain medicine. These medicines will make you drowsy. Driving and using machinery is not safe when you are taking them.
- Take short walks and go up and down stairs.
- Try getting up and moving around if you are having some pain in your belly. It may help.
Make sure your home is set up for your recovery, to prevent falls and make sure you are safe in the bathroom.
If your doctor says it is okay, you may start an exercise program 2to 4 weeks after surgery.
You do not need to join a gym to exercise. If you have not exercised or been active in a long time, be sure to start off slowly to prevent injuries. Taking a 5- to 10-minute walk every day is a good start. Increase this amount until you are walking 15 minutes twice a day.
Wound Care
You may change the dressing every day if your surgeon tells you to do so. Be sure to change your dressing if it gets dirty or wet.
You may have bruising around your wounds. This is normal. It will go away on its own. The skin around your incisions may be a little red. This is normal, too.
Do not wear tight clothing that rubs against your incisions while they heal.
Keep your dressing (bandage) on your wound clean and dry. If there are sutures (stitches) or staples, they will be removed about 7to 10 days after surgery. Some stitches can dissolve on their own. Your doctor will tell you if you have them.
Unless you are told otherwise, do not shower until after your follow-up appointment with your health care provider. When you can shower, let water run over your incision, but do not scrub or let the water beat down on it.
Do not soak in a bathtub, swimming pool, or hot tub until your doctor tells you it is okay.
Press a pillow over your incision when you need to cough or sneeze.
You may need to take some medicines when you go home.
- You may need to give yourself shots underneath the skin of a blood-thinning drug for 2 or more weeks. Your doctor or nurse will show you how.
- You may need to take medicine to prevent gallstones.
- You will need to take certain vitamins that your body may not absorb well from your food. Two of these are vitamin B-12 and vitamin D.
Aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), and some other drugs may harm the lining of your stomach or even cause ulcers. Talk with your doctor before you take these drugs.
To help you recover from surgery and manage all the changes in your lifestyle, you will see your surgeon and many other health professionals.
By the time you leave the hospital, you will likely have a follow-up appointment scheduled with your surgeon within a few weeks. You will see your surgeon several more times in the first year after your surgery.
You may also have appointments with:
- A nutritionist or dietitian, who will teach you how to eat correctly with your smaller stomach. You will also learn about what foods and drinks you should have after surgery.
- A psychologist, who can help you follow your eating and exercise guidelines and deal with the feelings or concerns you may have after surgery.
- You will need blood tests for the rest of your life to make sure that your body is getting enough important vitamins and minerals from food after your surgery.
When to Call the Doctor
Call your doctor or nurse if:
- Your temperature is above 101°F.
- You see any of these changes around your incision:
- More redness
- More pain
- Swelling
- Bleeding
- The wound is larger or deeper
- The wound looks dried out or dark
- The drainage coming from or around your incision:
- Does not decrease after 3to 5 days
- Is increasing
- Becomes thick, tan, or yellow, or smells bad (pus)
- Your temperature is above 100°F for more than 4 hours.
- Your incision is bleeding, red, warm to the touch, or has a thick yellow, green, or milky drainage.
- You have pain that your pain medicine is not helping.
- You have trouble breathing.
- You have a cough that does not go away.
- You cannot drink or eat.
- Your skin or the white part of your eyes turns yellow.
- Your stools are loose, or you have diarrhea.
- You are vomiting after eating.

Eddie MurrayFootball Player, 1976-2000Tulane University/NFLInducted: 2006Coach Larry Smith recruited Eddie Murray from Canada in 1976, launching a college career in which he shattered nearly every Tulane record for place kicking. That led to a remarkable 19 seasons in the NFL, distinguishing Murray as one of the few 44-year olds to don the uniform.Murray was a key player in Smith's rebuilding program, advancing from 2-9 in 1976 to an 8-3 regular-season record and a Liberty Bowl invitation in 1979. His 54-yard field goal in 1978 sparked a 24-21 win over Memphis and tied the record for the longest in Green Wave history, set by Mark Olivari in 1975.Murray still shares the single-season record for PAT percentage, a perfect 35-for-35 in that 1979 season. He made 84-of-86 career PATs, and was 45-of-73 on field goal attempts. In the 1979 Liberty Bowl on a rainy, sloppy field in Memphis, Murray booted two 26-yard field goals to take the Wave from a 6-0 deficit to a 6-6 tie against Penn State. But the Nittany Lions pulled it out on a last-minute field goal of their own.Murray's consistent performance earned him recognition from the media as a first-team, All-South Independent pick all four years. He was an honorable mention All-American by the Associated Press in 1978 and 1979 and earned honorable mention All-America honors from The Sporting News in 1979. Murray was named first team All-Louisiana in 1979 and honorable mention on the same team in 1976 and 1977. Murray was honored by his alma mater when he was inducted into the Tulane Athletics Hall of Fame in 1987.His remarkable career in the NFL began as a seventh-round draft pick by the Detroit Lions in 1980. He spent his first 12 years with the Lions. Murray also played for Kansas City, Tampa Bay, Dallas (twice), Philadelphia, Minnesota and Washington (twice).Murray topped 100 points scored in five seasons (1980, '81, '85, '93 and '95) with a career-high 122 for Dallas in '93. When he suited up for the Redskins in 2000, he became the sixth-oldest player to wear an NFL uniform (at age 44), and the oldest since Steve DeBerg played for the Atlanta Falcons in 1998.

21 years old female from Hyderabad asked
Hi doctor! I am 21 year old female .i have been having acne problem since the last 3 months .i never had this problem as a teen .i consume milk regularly so could it anyway be linked to lactose intolerance .i have been taking milk since childhood n never ever faced any issues .please help .i feel so embarrassed to walk out of home.
Homeopath, Mumbai
Hi lybrate-userthanks for using Lybrate as you discuss ed regarding your problem above that is acne and its link to lactose intolerance so firstly I cleared you that lactose intolerance found since birth but as such you said you are drinking milk from childhood so this problem is not related to milk consuming. For your acne problem I will suggest you, firsr you check which skin type you are i, e oily, dry, combination of both. According to your skin type choose any mild face wash, clean your fash with face wash twice daily. And oftenly with water so to avoid dust accumulation of face. Drink plenty of water. Add good amount of seasonal fruits in your diet. Avoid consuming fried, oily and junk foods. Lastly ruled out that you do not have any menstrual problems because it can be also a major cause for acne.
74 years old male from Ahmedabad asked
I am 74 years old and I suffer from ed. I take vigora when I make sex. I take 15 days once. Can I increased per week? Will it increase sugar level. It will effect my health. Please advise.

Hello- However a 70 year old man should take the dosage he needs to take depending on his condition. The recommended dosage for each person is determined by the attending physician. This will be 25 mg, 50 mg or 100 mg and a patient should not take more. Age may be a concern to some, but the most important factors to consider are health and fitness. This includes any heart worries. The pill should be taken with a glass of water about one or two hours prior to sex. For best results, consider eating food that may affect your sex life in a p++ositive manner or food that gives you the right kind of long term energy and health. This will help complement the effects of the Viagra. One thing for certain though, is not to combine it with smoking or drugs or alcohol or even grapefruits, which will not help the Viagra at all.

Hello Dr. I am very thin and my weight is 55 kg. I have to gain weight as I am about to join defense soon. Please help me with something.
20 years old male from Kurukshetra asked
I was suffering from stomach pain and tightening in stomach from last 2 months. The treatment which I was taking did not give much relief. So Two three days back I went for endoscopy test, in which there is swelling in one portion. I was told that main reason for this is tension, which can be earlier tension also. But also this problem arise whenever I eat outside food. I also drink sometimes. It is now 2 months this pain is. I do not take much tension. So I want to consult how much time it takes to recover. And the reason why this problem is, and remedy for it.
Bachelor of Ayurveda, Medicine and Surgery (BAMS), MD-Ayurveda
Ayurveda, Delhi
The reason for gas and tightening of stomach is indigestion, decrease peristaltic movement means decrease movement of intestine which can be due to inflammation of internal mucosa which also came in endoscopy. This can be cured permanently with ayurveda and it may take 1 to 2 months to get cure completely. Reason for this problem can be earlier depression which leads to indigestion or several enzymes which get altered in depression. You can contact me on private for further discussion and treatment.

22 years old male from Davanagere asked
Sir I am facing lot of stress, memory loss, tension, less confidence. please tell me how to over common these problems.
Your memory loss, tension and perhaps low confidence is all related to the stress that you are experiencing. First of all, the intensity of stress is in the perception. Change your perception, there is no stress: itâs like looking at a glass half full or half empty. Apart from that, all your emotions need to be dealt with by expression i.e. You need to talk about the feelings. Then you need to exercise regularly, eat fiber foods (whole grains, fruits and vegetables), sleep at least 8 hours every day, learn Yoga and meditation, learn stress management, and do a personality development course. Because you are into studies, follow a tight schedule, with good breaks and study habits. If group study helps you, do it with the right people. If tutoring is required, arrange for the same. These should see you through successfully without the stress.
24 years old male from Ahmedabad asked
Hi, I am 24 years old boy, I masturbate daily once or twice a day. I realise sperm quickly so help me to sustain sperm for longer time.
Fellowship ,council of Sex Education and Parenthood , BAMS, B-Pharm
Sexologist, Jaipur
Masturbation is natural and normal thing. It is done by 95% of the males in the world, mostly before marriage as well as when wife is away, in menses or pregnant after marriage. It is not at all harmful. Frequency of masturbation done by an individual varies from once a day to once a week. Occasional twice a day is also fine. It depends upon individual libido, wish and timing. It neither causes any weakness nor any problem in sexual activity. PE is very common problem in younger Please use the following tips. It will help you 1 the better option is to relax your mind and to increase timing you can do kegel's exercise also try the stop/start method 2 increase the amount of time spent during foreplay. Make sure the genitals are not rubbed against the other's body or on the bed as this might also lead to ejaculation 3. Use a condom preferably a thick one or extra time its easily available in market. This will reduce the sensitivity of the penis. If these tips are beneficial then test your semen and urine and consult with sexologist.
year old male from Ahmedabad asked
There are many body powder are available in market so my question is it has any side effects? If not then suggest me which body powder I take for stamina and bodybuilder.
Hello There. Most of all powder are enriched with protein which is essential for body building. The first thing to remember is that eating protein alone will not increase muscle. To build muscle you have to use it. The slight damage done to the muscle during weight lifting and other resistance activities and then healing is how the muscle grows larger, so if you are simply consuming protein powders in order to gain muscle but still sitting at home on the sofa, this isnât going to happen. Muscle growth requires adequate supplies of protein, however, for the majority of people this is easily obtained from food sources and there is no need to supplement with powders. Instead of protein powder start protein rich food like milk, egg, soya etc. Let me know if you need more information.
year old male from Kaithal asked
I got irritated and getting angry on others whole day and night .suffering from stress, mental tension. I can not sleep. A severe forehead pain. What to do?
You have not mentioned your age but if you are young, then there may be a need to meet with a counselor along with your parents to determine any contributing factors from childhood. First of all, the intensity of stress is in the perception. Change your perception, there is no stress: itâs like looking at a glass half full or half empty. Apart from that, all your emotions need to be dealt with by expression i.e. You need to talk about the feelings. Then you need to exercise regularly, eat fiber foods (whole grains, fruits and vegetables), sleep at least 8 hours every day, learn Yoga and meditation, learn stress management, and do a personality development course. Because you are into studies, follow a tight schedule, with good breaks and study habits. If group study helps you, do it with the right people. If tutoring is required, arrange for the same. These should see you through successfully without the stress. The headache is related to your anger and needs some expressions to deal with it.

Dear Lybrate user, Broken and stuck tooth fragments are indeed a serious problem. Your broken tooth part needs to be removed and the tooth that remains embedded in the gums should be saved if possible. Please visit dentist and get the broken stuck tooth fragment removed and the rest of the tooth treated.

Mr. lybrate-user your son is probably suffering from skin infection of the skulp. In my opinion it would be better to administer HOMOEOPATHIC medicines. He is only of 20 months it would be better to cure permanently rather to be suppressed repeatedly through external applications. Use Aloe Vera conditioner shampoo of SBL company. And Sulphur 30 to be given early morning for 2 days :consecutive morning. Please stop any other medication. Come for homeopathy consultation as per the schedule after seven days.

When I was in high school I had a close-knit group of friends. We spent just about every weekend together.
At night we used to talk long walks along the lonely roads of the rural community where I grew up.
When cars would pass us, we'd stop on the side of the road and assume a 'family portrait' pose - we'd stand side by side, facing the road, turned slightly inward towards those in the center of the group, those in front kneeling, those in back with a hand placed lovingly on the shoulder of the person in front of them, all smiling inanely and vacant-eyed at an imaginary photographer in the distance.
We'd hold the pose until the car had passed and disappeared into the distance, then w'd resume our walk. When the next car came along, we'd form our family portrait post again. And when that got dull, we got creative.
We'd form a still-image of a Kung-Fu battle.
Or a still-image of a dance-routine, usually Lord of the Dance style.
Sure, we were weird. But we did have fun.

The British Museum: 4 June
The first day of class was today and we went to the British Museum afterward. I love that the museums here are free. For our art history class we read about the Elgin Marbles, which were a part of the Parthenon in Greece. The Parthenon was a temple made in honor of Athena, Zeus' daughter. He got a Greek goddess pregnant and killed her, I think. Then he became pregnant but inside of his head. She literally sprung from his forehead, Sunny says. She is considered a perfect woman because she was not born from a women. So the British Museum has these Elgin Marbles because Elgin brought them to England. The British government bought the marbles fair and square. Now Greece is building a big fancy museum and wants to Elgin Marbles back. They argue that the viewer can enjoy the Marbles better if they are all together in a Greek environment. I disagree; I like the Elgin Marbles in the British Museum. My arguments are simple:
- More people can see them in London. Millions of people visit the British Museum every year.
- The British Government bought them. If Greece had had more pride in keeping them, the Marbles wouldn't be in London in the first place.
- I enjoyed the Marbles just fine in London. I actually thought it was really neat to see something like that in the British Museum.
- Lastly, Greece is tearing stuff down to build this museum of theirs. Obviously, they don't have much care in conserving things if they'll tear down the old to build the new, and they sold the Marbles away.
I know little to nothing about art, so I don't know how educated my arguments are, but I really enjoyed seeing the Marbles. I'm glad they are here in London. Here are some of the pictures I took of the Elgin Marbles.

To make serious run at top UFC contenders no?
Personally I like Ian and think it would be a great comeback story and all... but hes approaching 50. Couture is a genetic exception. I'm kinda shocked that you nutlickers think he would crush Couture or Vera.
Really this is a young man's game so I don't think it's so much Ian isn't talented or experienced, but a lifetime of injuries and all must add up?
MMA is a shit deal for aging.... it'd be nice to be able to seat oneself on the can when your 60 and 70.

Child Welfare Workforce Improvement Act Would Help Ensure Strong Child Welfare Workforce
Dec 04, 2009
The Child Welfare Workforce Improvement Act of 2009 (S. 2837) introduced in the Senate on Dec. 4 by Sen. Blanche Lincoln (R-Nebraska) will make significant strides toward ensure the child welfare workforce is able to provide the quality, individualized services that children and families need.
Well-trained and supervised caseworkers with the resources to do their jobs are essential to achieving the outcomes we want for children and their families. These workers must be able to accurately assess needs and risks, connect children and families to services and monitor that progress are critical to a quality child welfare workforce. S. 2837 will help achieve this and build on important improvements made by the Fostering Connections to Success and Increasing Adoptions Act of 2008.
The National Academy of Sciences will conduct a study of the child welfare workforce, gathering critical information on child welfare staff that will help inform important improvements in the child welfare workforce.
The act will expand training opportunities, ensuring that Title IV-E training dollars can be used to support child welfare staff providing family support, reunification, and post-permanency services as well as those providing foster care, adoption or kinship services. Training dollars will be available to support not only staff of public and private child welfare agencies and the courts but also related professionals who serve children in the child welfare system.
The act will also remove barriers to providing federal support for the child welfare workforce and establish a demonstration grant program to help states, tribes and large counties improve their child welfare workforces.

We Want More From Our S'mores
We're kicking off the summer camping and picnic season this July Fourth with a new way to support Fair Trade and put pressure on Hershey to clean up its supply chain.
Please join us in our new "we want more from our s'mores" campaign and make all of your summertime s'mores with Fair Trade Certified™ chocolate. (Find the best companies ranked on our chocolate scorecard.)
Then, to join with thousands of others who are using their summertime snacks to take a stand for Fair Trade, here's the plan:
- Register your s'mores — Between now and the week of Labor Day, we'll cumulatively total how many Fair Trade s'mores have been made across the United States. (You can find vegan marshmallow recipes here.)
- Send us Hershey petitions — At your s'mores event (or any event) collect signatures demanding better from Hershey. Send them in, and we'll forward them on to Hershey at the end of the summer.
- Send us a photo — We're also collecting a "photo petition" for Hershey. Print out these signs (or make your own), and send us a photo asking Hershey to go Fair Trade.
- Host a Dark Side screening — The film The Dark Side of Chocolate takes you behind the scenes and onto the cocoa farms of the Ivory Coast where children are trafficked to work harvesting cocoa beans. Share this film in your community to raise awareness of the problems in the chocolate supply chain.
Also, remember when you shop for your s'mores to ask for Fair Trade chocolate if your supermarket doesn't carry it, or thank them if they do. You can find resources to help "Fair Trade Your Supermarket" on our campaign site.

text: Okay, I figure this will raise some eyebrows around here. But seriously... What is with the EXTREME hate for this man? Yes, I get that some question his choreography at times, so have I. But he's not the first and won't be the last to provide questionable choreography. Even Lori Nicol and Camerlengo, to name just two others, have put out some not-so-great stuff. Christopher Dean didn't do MK any favor with Bolero. And in the big picture, Morozov has created some very good choreography, too. I also get that he's likes his women. Skaters often date/marry one another, so that's not uncommon. From what I've observed, it's not like he's going after underage girls and, frankly, it takes two to tango. So I really don't get the fuss about that and I don't know why anyone would particularly care. Probably most importantly, he's a damn good coach! His students have very good technique and he appears to be incredibly dedicated to his pupils. And you have to admit, he's got a terrific track record when it comes to producing winners. I've seen interviews where he seems nice enough. Maybe some of you have seen otherwise but, let's face it, Frank Carroll (to name another elite coach) isn't always exactly bursting with sunshine. So what's with all the hate?

A split in Alberta
After old vet Ryan Smyth opened the scoring, the Canadiens scored three unanswered goals to take over an entertaining game.
Brendan Gallagher got them on the board during a second-period power play, and Brandon Prust made it 2-1 after 40 minutes.
Alex Galchenyuk's first of the season opened up a two-goal lead, and Edmonton coach Dallas Eakins pulled goaltender Devan Dubnyk with more than four minutes left.
After some tense moments, Max Pacioretty scored into the empty net.
Peter Budaj made 26 saves.
The Canadiens' western swing continues in Vancouver Saturday night.
Wild ending
Aafter Alex Galchenyuk's first goal of the season gave the Canadiens a 3-1 lead, Edmonton coach Dallas Eakins yanked goaltender Devan Dubnyk with more than four minutes left.
The Oilers came close, but Peter Budaj and his teammates stood tall.
Max pacioretty bagged an empty-netter - off an unselfish feed by Daniel Briere - to finish the Oilers off with seconds left.
Canadiens take the lead
An error by rookie Michaël Bournival caused the Canadiens to be called for Too many Men. And on the subsequent power play, vetran Ryan Smyth opened the scoring, beating Peter Budaj from close in as Canadiens penalty-killers scrambled around the zone.
Seven minutes later, on a Canadiens PP, Alex Galchenyuk picked up his sixth assist of the young season, feeding road roommate Brendan Gallagher for an easy tap-in past Devan Dubnyk.
A brilliant play by P.K. Subban at the Edmonton blueline created a chance for the fourth line and Brandon Prust banged in his first of the season – leaving the rugged winger one assist short of a Gordie Howe hat trick.
Edmonton ended the period with a stretch of dominance and outshot the Canadiens 10-8.
Scoreless first period
Rene Bourque had the best chance, ringing one off the goalpost past Devan Dubnyk.
Canadiens outshot the Oilers 12-9 but were outhit 12-3.
P.K. Subban played nine minutes ... and avoided the penalty box.
Brandon Prust gave away about four inches and 50 pounds in a spirited fight with Luke Gazdic.
And Michel Therrien shuffled his lines: Tomas Plekanec centring Brendan Gallagher and Alex Galchenyuk, Lars Eller with Daniel Brière and Max Pacioretty, David Desharnais with Bourque and Brian Gionta.
Canadiens try to bounce back
On their last swing through western Canada, in March, 2012, the Canadiens began their road trip with a 5-4 loss in Calgary.
Two nights later, that last-place Eastern Conference squad beat Edmonton 5-3 and followed up with a 4-1 win in Vancouver.
Will history repeat itself?
* Quote of the Day: San Jose rookie Tomas Hertl has been getting all kinds of stick from hockey's "old guard" (Translation: fun-hating, Don Cherry-loving alcoholics) for his hot doggery against the Rangers. Overhearing a question about in the Sharks' room, Joe Thornton snapped: "Shut up, have you ever played the game? I'd have my c--k out if I scored four goals. I'd have my c--k out, stroking it."

Not all the small critters crawling about on little legs in suburban gardens are insects. Some are crustaceans. Like insects, crustaceans have a hard skeleton on the outside of their bodies and jointed legs. Crustaceans, however, have more than three pairs of legs (insects have three pairs), two pairs of antennae or feelers (insects have only one pair), and never have wings.
In fact, the crustaceans in the garden are more closely related to prawns, lobsters and crabs than they are to insects. Their closest relatives live in the sea, which is where the vast majority of the thousands of species of crustaceans live.
If you live in the damper eastern outskirts of Melbourne you may be lucky enough to have small yabbies burrowing in your lawn (see Information Sheet: Who's digging in my lawn?). These are more familiar crustaceans than their smaller relatives and neighbours.
Three kinds of small crustaceans are common in suburban gardens in southern Australian cities.
Woodlice are oval, flat, dull-grey, segmented animals growing up to 17 mm long. The head has a pair of compound eyes and each of the first seven body segments supports a pair of short legs. Segments closer to the tail don't have legs, but have shorter limbs underneath that act as 'lungs'.
Woodlice dry out and die unless they remain sheltered from the direct sunlight. They spend most of their life hiding under logs, stones or pots, where they feed on rotting vegetation.
'Woodlice' is a plural word – the singular 'woodlouse' is rarely used. They are also called slaters – because they are the colour of slate.
Garden Slater, Porcellio scaberPhotographer: Alan Henderson / Source: Museum Victoria
They belong to the large group of crustaceans called Isopoda. The most common species in Australian gardens is the Garden Slater, Porcellio scaber, a name which means 'rough little pig' in Latin.
Pillbugs are oval, deep-bodied, shiny-grey and segmented. They grow to 18 mm long. Pillbugs are isopods like woodlice, so they have a similar arrangement of segments and legs. Unlike woodlice, they are able to roll into a tight ball when alarmed. Pillbugs also spend most of their time hiding in the grass, but occasionally are seen wandering in the sun.
Pillbug, Armadillidium vulgarePhotographer: Alan Henderson / Source Museum Victoria
The scientific name of the pillbug found in suburban gardens is Armadillidium vulgare, alluding to its similarity to an armadillo. Australians also call them 'butcher-boys'.
Land hoppers are segmented, shiny, grey-brown crustaceans that are taller than they are wide. The seven pairs of legs are obvious, especially the longer ones near the back on which they can walk in a clumsy manner.
Land hopper, Arcitalitrus sylvaticusPhotographer: David Staples / Source: Museum Victoria
Land hoppers are usually seen when they hop, apparently in a hysterical manner, when they are disturbed from their preferred home in damp leaf-litter or under pot-plants in the garden. The common species can grow up to 9 mm long. Sometimes large numbers of land hoppers find their way indoors, where they quickly dry out to shrimp-coloured crisps.
Land hoppers belong to one of the most abundant groups of Crustacea, the Amphipoda. The common species in gardens in Melbourne and Sydney is called Arcitalitrus sylvaticus.
The common woodlice and pillbugs in suburban gardens are not native Australian species. Both have been introduced to this country from Europe with the many garden plants brought here, probably starting in the 19th century. The two examples mentioned are among at least nine European species now in Australia.
The northern hemisphere species of isopods now dominate in gardens full of hundreds of other exotic species. Roses, camellias, hydrangeas and cabbages have all been imported to Australia. Just as these foreigners have replaced native plants in cities, so have exotic isopods replaced some of the 300 species of native terrestrial Australian isopods. Luckily most of these survive elsewhere, in forest and grassland litter, in just the sorts of places that woodlice and pillbugs usually inhabit.
Curiously, the reverse has happened with the Australian land hopper. Arcitalitrus sylvaticus is a native Australian species that is successful in most gardens. The same species has been imported to California and the UK, probably with Australian native plants taken overseas to beautify northern gardens.
Hi Tiffy, as it notes in the information above woodlice dry out and die unless they remain sheltered from the direct sunlight. To avoid becoming desiccated they spend most of their life hiding under logs, stones or pots, where they feed on rotting vegetation.
Hi Anita, it can sometimes be difficult keeping them out. Just bear in mind that they don't bite people and while they may come inside after heavy rain they usually dry out quite quickly and die. They can then just be swept up and thrown out. The links here and here will provide you with information on these creatures.
Hello Ian,
To find out what species of hopper you have in your garden the Discovery Centre would be very happy to identify your 'hoppers' for you. However, we would need to see either a photograph or the creature itself. Please follow out identification guidelines here
Hi Katie, woodlice are one of the easiest animals to rear and breed in large numbers. In fact if you keep skinks or any other animals in an enclosure with logs and leaves, woodlice will quickly appear out of nowhere. A terrarium with a soil substrate, bits of bark and leaf litter, will be an excellent home for them. Keep it relatively moist with a spray of water every couple of days, and add a small dish (such as a milk bottle lid) of cut vegetables or fish flakes.
Collect woodlice from under logs or stones and add them to the terrarium, and they should continue to breed in there as long as you maintain it.
Hi Sonya,
Slaters are fine to feed to reptiles. They can be bred in large numbers as long as their environment is kept relatively moist - as land crustaceans, they need to breathe through gills. Slaters are also useful in a reptile enclosure as they help to keep it clean, consuming all the tiny bits of detritus and fungal spores that might otherwise accumulate.
Hi Nicole,
Pillbugs do not bite or sting humans or other animals. Pillbugs are detrivores – they scavenge decaying plant matter and sometimes living plant material. This recycles nutrients and helps build the organic content in the soil. Pillbugs also feed on their own faeces This allows them to digest material not processed during the first digestion. As a last resort they will eat seeds. Larger pillbugs will cannabalize smaller, weaker, moulting or injured pillbugs.
Woodlice, also known as Slaters or Roley Poleys (Porcellio scaber and Armadillidium vulgare) are generally beneficial for reptiles. They make excellent, non-toxic and nutritious food for lizards, with the added bonus that they are high in calcium. In reptile enclosures, they feed on fungal spores and other detritus, and help clean up the substrates.
We love receiving comments, but can't always respond.

LWC alumnus Michael Futrell is
sworn in Jan. 8 as a delegate in the Virginia General
Assembly and his wife, Bernadine, have a son, Michael Futrell
RICHMOND, Va. -- Lindsey Wilson
College alumnus Michael Futrell made political history earlier this
year in Virginia when he was was sworn in as state delegate to
represent the Old Dominion's 2nd House District in the Virginia
General Assembly.
When Futrell was sworn in at the age of 31 on Jan.
8 at the state capital, he became the youngest African-American
elected to the Virginia General Assembly in its 395-year
Futrell, a Democrat, won a hotly contested race
in November 2013 besting a Republican incumbent member of the House
of Delegates.
"It's an honor and a privilege to represent the
people of the 2nd District in the longest continuously operating
legislative body in the country," said Futrell, who played
basketball at LWC and earned a degree in education. "But, it's a
greater privilege to represent my family and the community who
taught me from an early age the value of community service. I'm
happy to have the opportunity to give back now."
The 2nd House district is a culturally and
ethnically diverse area in Northern Virginia with a rich military
background. It includes the Quantico Marine Corps base, which is
home to more than 4,000 active duty Marines.
Futrell and his wife, Bernadine, have a son,
Michael Futrell II.

The entire list
New Information
Associated Press of Pakistan - September 6- 2008
Adnan Oktar: If we take a brick nothing will happen; even if we take the second brick nothing will happen. But; if we band together all of the bricks, parget them, decorate them, and cover them with hardwood, we would make a palace. Now, the Islamic World is like that, it is disorganized and there are full of bricks. As it is like that; the art, civilization, beauty, aesthetic, and wisdom don't emerge. When we unite and be together, act collectively, the beauty would emerge. That's why this unity should be advocated formally and instantly among the Islamic countries… There is nobody to be the peacekeeper in the area. I mean, there is a reasonable mind, isn't there? There is a consistent mind, the most reasonable decisions are taken, the most cosistent results are achieved – decisions can be taken in favor of and for the benefit of both sides. However, it doesn't happen like that; decisions are taken out of countenance of the both sides. Both sides are disturbed at the end and such disorder emerge at last. The Turkish - Islamic Union will be the elder brother of the area and the world. This is a spiritual sacrifice system, not a self-interest system.

In the statements that he made to the English The Guardian newspaper; The President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that, Iran wants help from Turkey to repair the alliance between Iran and USA, and he explained that, he conveyed this request to the former USA President Bush and said " We are ready to this".
The newspaper wrote those; " The Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan stated to The Guardian that; as a probable prelude to the reunion of Iran and USA; he explained that he wants help from Turkey about breaking the thirty years of conflict between Iran and USA."

Code:apt-get update apt-get upgrade apt-get dist-upgrade
Hey guys,
I am still pretty new to Backtrack, and am having a few issues that i hope you can help me out with. I seem to be having issues with getting into wicd to connect to a wireless or wired network for that matter. This used to be working, however i was playing around a bit cracking our 128 bit WEP key at my office for security reasons, and ever since then, backtrack wont seem to start wicd or my network connection. This is my major concern out of all of my issues.
Also, another issue i am having is getting applications via the CLI with the syntax apt-get. I have tried to do an apt-get install dist-upgrade, as well as apt-get install upgrade, apt-get install update, but i seem to be getting some errors. (This was all before my networking issue, when my network connections were working). I have all of the repo's selected within the software sources. I am trying to install iperf for throughput testing, as we use it very frequently at my work.
One more very minor thing, i was playing around with customization, and selected something which puts a (mac os - like) toolbar on the top of the screen. This toolbar takes place of the file menu within applications. I would like to take this off, but cant remember what i did to select it .
I would like most to get most of these issues worked out before i make backtrack my primary work OS.
ANY help is GREATLY appreciated!!
Code:apt-get update apt-get upgrade apt-get dist-upgrade
I have been using the command start-network from the terminal to get the network started, which used to bring up wicd in the toolbar. Even when i click on the wicd application, or type wicd in the task launcher, nothing comes up.
it looks like i mistyped the syntax on the apt-get upgrade and update and dist-upgrade, i was running the pre-final edition of backtrack prior to the release of the final. I used these commands to upgrade my system. I was debating on just doing a fresh installation, but i wanted to see if the upgrade would work first.
I currently am running windows seven, snow leopard, ubuntu, fedora, and backtrack. I am defiantly much more familiar with the newer versions of ubuntu gnome, which can always be a fallback option for me if i get stuck in backtrack, but like i said i am still learning much of backtrack.
p.s. i loaded up the live dvd this morning to see if it was my laptop, or something i have broken within the operating system, but i was unable to load up wicd as well.
Thanks for your help
Try the following: airmon-ng stop wlan0 (thats if your wireless interface is wlan0) not sure if this command is needed, i just had issues with my card
then: start-network wlan0
then open Wicd Manager
I have tried this method before with no success, thanks for the tip though!Tablechukka
Re: Networking Issue & Other Minor Issues
Try the following: airmon-ng stop wlan0 (thats if your wireless interface is wlan0) not sure if this command is needed, i just had issues with my card
then: start-network wlan0
then open Wicd Manager
I currently have start-network set up to start as soon as i boot into BT4, i tried this method as well, but unsuccessful.Before startx, run "/etc/init.d/wicd start". If you want WICD to start automatically every time you boot up BT4, type "update-rc.d wicd defaults" after the previous command.
During my initial boot up, all of the POST tests pass fine, except i do get an error:
'starting DHCP server: dhcpd3* check syslog for diagnostics'
I looked in my system log (/var/log/log), but i was really able to distinguish what the exact error was. Have you ever seen this before?
Thanks again!
Hey guys, i seem to be having some issues with getting my internet connection up and running in backtrack.
During my initial boot, i receive an error which states:
I did a bit of debugging from the command line, however i seem to be stumped at this point.Code:DHCP server: dhcp3 failed! Check syslog for diagnostics
When i initially boot, i perform the ifconfig command, and all i see is the lo address listed.
I then performed the ifconfig wlan0 up command, and i will see all of my interfaces when doing ifconfig again.
When i perform the '/etc/init.d/dhcp3-server restart' command i get this output:
Looking into my syslog, i am seeing the following errors when performing the above command:Code:Stopping DHCP server: dhcpd3 failed! Starting DHCP server: dhcp3* check syslog for diagnostics. failed!
I did a bit of poking around in the /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf and dhclient.conf file, but wasnt too sure what to look for.Code:Mar 25 05:48:04 bt dhcpd: Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Server V3.1.1 Mar 25 05:48:04 bt dhcpd: Copyright 2004-2008 Internet Systems Consortium.

Do not start a new post on the same topic. Use the edit button.
As for your "problem"
This part seems pretty relevant to me. Now would be a good idea to check the thread in the how-to section on getting networking started in BT.Code:]Mar 25 05:48:04 bt dhcpd: Not configured to listen on any interfaces!
When using WCID and BT4 *sometimes* you can click on Service/Network/Start Network from the menu and then WICD and it works. Other times, you need to drop down to a terminal session and type in the command to start network manually then use WICD.
Again, I don't know why this is the case but after spending hours tearing out my hair and posting on different forums I found this to be true. Most often anymore I don't even try to start it from the menu, I just drop down to the command line and start it from there and all my network problems go away.
thanks, Arch.Angel for pointing me in a good direction.
However, i still seem to be having some issues. I managed to get my eth0 interface working, and some of my wlan0.
I ended up uninstalling wicd, as no gui appears when loading the application anymore. I currently have wifi-radar installed, and i can see and connect to access points, however, i dont seem to be receiving an ip address.
I have tried to manually configure a static ip address and access the internet that way, but it still seems unsuccessful.
my resolv.conf is as follows:
my interfaces are as follows:Code:Domain DPHoldings.com search DPHoldings.com nameserver 10.252.252.15 nameserver 10.252.252.16 nameserver 22.214.171.124
I still seem to be getting the same dhcp3 error when performing the following command: /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server restartCode:auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet dhcp
Any ideas?

OSTI Partnering with Publishers on CrossRef and FundRef to Enhance Public Access to DOE Scientific and Technical Information
Throughout our history, the Office of Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI) has worked to make authoritative science information ever more efficiently available to researchers and the public alike. Our core mission – ensuring access to and preservation of U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) research results – has not changed. But the technology we apply to that mission has changed a lot over the past 20 years. By adopting Internet technology carefully and early, pioneering new advances in that technology to meet our needs and partnering with other stakeholders in the scientific and technical information community (STI), OSTI aspires to achieve our mission better than ever before.
OSTI's involvement in public access is accelerating! The week of June 24th, 2013, The White House recognized Champions of Change: Open Science at an event in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building. OSTI's Director Walt Warnick was invited to nominate individuals who had been instrumental in championing public access to open science. As a result of Walt's involvement in Public Access to scientific information, he was invited to attend this important event. Two notable Champions of Change who were honored were Jack Andraka, a Maryland high school student who at age 15 created a novel paper sensor that detects pancreatic, ovarian, and lung cancer in 5 minutes for as little as 3 cents; Jack has a huge Twitter following and is a passionate speaker about open access, STEM education and universal Internet availability. The other is Paul Ginsparg who created arXiv.org, an open access e-print network that serves as the primary daily information feed for global communities of researchers in physics, mathematics, computer science, and related fields and is the most popular e-print server in the world.

Perhaps the most beautiful and eerie displays of light in our sky are a phenomenon known as the auroras. This natural glow of light in the sky in high latitude regions usually displays ribbons of colors from a fluorescent green to brilliant purple to a vivid crimson somewhat like an unexpected beautiful sunrise or sunset. Observers often call it the greatest show on Earth.
Auroras are triggered by geomagnetic storms when gusts of solar plasma wind strike the Earth's magnetic field; charged particles rain down over the north and south magnetic poles, lighting up the atmosphere and causing the air to glow.

Does ARP spoofing inside VMWare work?
I figure even in the bridged mode your ethernet adapter inside VMWare is a virtual adapter with its own virtual MAC. So when you arpspoof it'll just say "the gateway is at this virtual MAC" which would be useless.
or am I missing something?
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.
It works under VMWare workstation but under ESX / ESXi there is an option to drop all packets either command or send with a faked MAC {if mac does not match the one listed in the vmware config file}
uder ESX you can just run this commands from the console
do this only in lab since it is dangerous in production.Code:vmware-vim-cmd hostsvc/net/vswitch_setpolicy --securepolicy-macchange=false <vswitch name> vmware-vim-cmd hostsvc/net/vswitch_setpolicy --securepolicy-forgedxmit=false <vswitch name> vmware-vim-cmd hostsvc/net/vswitch_setpolicy --securepolicy-promisc=false <vswitch name>
for ESXi you will have to do it from the VIC by selecting the host then in the configuration tab select networking, then the vSwitch where the VM's are in its properties change the policy settings.
what about in Fusion? That's what I have.

These are the glasses that enable a golfer to quickly assess a green before making a putt. Their polycarbonate lenses optimize the green portion of the color spectrum, revealing a green's nuances. Ideal for determining one's intended line and pace before a par-saving putt, the lenses reveal higher areas that appear a lighter, yellow-green, while lower areas appear a darker, blue-green. Made from premium-grade resin and coated on both sides to resist scratches, the polycarbonate lenses resist impact 20X better than glass while weighing 3X less. The half-rim nylon frames are lightweight, providing a wide field of view; hydrophilic nose pads and temple tips absorb moisture, keeping the glasses in place. The frames' pin-less hinges seamlessly connect the temples to the frame fronts for durability and a sleek look and feel. One size fits most.

Riff Raff announces project with Action Bronson
Listen to Riff Raff on iHeartRadio | Listen to Action Bronson on iHeartRadio
Riff Raff is teaming up with up-and-coming emcee Action Bronson for an upcoming project.
In an interview with MTV News, Riff Raff reveals that the pair is joining forces for a collaboration album called Galaxy Gladiators.
He has high hopes for the project because he believes that every song he makes with Bronson "is a hit song."
Apparently, their ability to mesh well in the studio stems from a strong friendship. Riff Raff claims Bronson is one of his closest friends.
Meantime, Riff Raff also opened up about collaborating with Wiz Khalifa for his upcoming project "Neon Icons." He enlists Wiz for the song "Castle Around My Heart." Because Wiz is someone he "vibes with," Riff Raff says there's no other rapper he'd rather have on the song. "Neon Icon" is set to hit stores in January 2014.

in situ studio
raleigh, n.c.
Launching an architecture firm in the depths of a recession is not for the faint of heart. But that's what Erin Sterling Lewis, AIA, LEED AP, and Matthew Henning Griffith, AIA, did when they founded in situ studio in 2010. Their optimism and knack for doing a lot with a little proved a winning combination for the times. "Our motto is, we don't say no to anything," Sterling Lewis says. "This is not a hobby practice for us; we both have families." Alumni of the Raleigh-based firm Frank Harmon Architect, the partners bring big-league talent and rookie enthusiasm to even the most modest projects. "We've never liked the idea that you can only design houses that you could never afford," says Sterling Lewis. "We'd like everyone to be able to afford good design." The partners point with pride to a new green custom home the firm brought in (with some owner sweat equity) at $115 per square foot.
Public and commercial projects draw the firm's interest as well, notes Griffith, who finds time to teach design studio at the North Carolina State University School of Architecture. But residential work remains the primary focus for now. "It's really appropriate to start a practice on," Sterling Lewis says. "We've learned so much so fast that we don't want to transition out of that very quickly."

Pistol Annies cancel all June appearances without explanation
Listen to Pistol Annies on iHeartRadio
Pistol Annies are making an abrupt change of plans. The country trio has scrapped all their upcoming shows, without much of an explanation. MusicRow.com says the promoter offers in a brief statement that "due to unforeseen circumstances, Pistol Annies are unable to appear on any dates in June."
The promoter adds that band member Miranda Lambert will honor all of Pistol Annies' performance commitments with solo shows.
Pistol Annies also missed last week's CMT Music Awards. The group was expected to perform at the event - instead Lambert and Ashley Monroe performed individually, while Angaleena Presley wasn't seen at the ceremony. However, the trio reportedly hasn't split up.
Pistol Annies just released their second album, Annie Up, last month.

Have you checked the MD5SUM ? Try booting the DVD on another machine, also try downloading the 64 bit version.
First thing first, the 32-bit version BT5R1 should run on a 64-bit Intel Pentium processor, right? I don't have to get a 64-bit BT5, is that correct?
Here's what happens when i try to boot from a BT5R1-gnome-32 live cd:
1) i get the "copyright Peter Avind" line with a prompt line for login
2) I press "Enter" key and get the splash screen menu with choices for "safe mod", "mem test" etc
3) I choose the 1st one or "safe mode", and enter
4) screen starts showing messages like "loading vmlinux", "casper/linux" etc
5) more rolling messages about loading other stuffs but too fast to make out
6) then blank screen ...
I checked other threads, it seems other people only get to have the blank screen after they typed 'startx" command, but I don't even get that far.
please help!

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 !
My internet is averaging only 80kB/s downstream, so I am hoping to avoid downloading another 1.9B of the 64-bit version. And From the look of it, it's not guaranteed to work, lots of people have blank screen issues.
also I made 2 CDs, both get the same blank screen error. so I doubt it's file corruption, but i will do the md5sum check just in case.
a bit of good news is that I have successfully installed it on VM, and so I am about to give up running it from a live CD.
Anyway, the 32-bit version is supposed to work on a 64-bit Intel pentium processor, right?
i checked the md5 on the cd and they match.
i'm having the same problem, but when it tries to boot it cannot find the kernel.

Hi. I had this problem and I solved it. But there was another problem (see pic in attachments). How to fix it? "list-style-position: outline" don't work in this instance. Big thx in advance!
We would need to see your code to know what you are doing here, but there is no such thing as list-style-position: outline. It's actually list-style-position: outside. That may not help much if you are suing background images. which is why the code or a link would be better.
If posting code, read this first:
See attachment img
ps I'm sorry for the mistake of "list-style-position: outside" (it doesn't work).
Give the list items enough left padding to accommodate the background image.
And how does that help? I don't understand.
Try it and see if it does anything. We are trying to debug an image here, which isn't a lot of use. If you could post an actual example of this it would be easy to tell you what to do. Often the bullets on a UL will be hidden unless the UL and/or LIs have some padding/margin on the left, to give them room to appear. But I'm still not very clear on what you are doing here.
Big sorry, I understood. List of inherited indent red string from a parent, that was the problem. Sorry for the carelessness and thank you!
How can I thank the forum?
Glad you got it sorted.:)
