in MEDICINE
/il Dr. Harry Goldman
{('onlinued from Last Week)
In Bagdad during the life of Har-
em-Al Rachid, 786-809, laws were
again promulgated which, prohibited
je irom studying medicine and
hence we find that most Jewish
iana became Mohainnicdiai.
One of the earliest of medical
works is that of Isaac ben Solomon
Israeli, who lived from 832 to 932.
This famous physician was occulist
and court physician to the Caliph
(Jbaid Allah al-Mahdi at Kairwan.
His original Arabic work was*trans-
lab d into Latin by the Monk Con-
stantine in 1087, who claimed it as
n. In 1515 it was reprinted in
Leyden and contained chapters on
fevers, diatetics, urine drugs, dropsy I
treatment and ailments.
One of the greatest of Jewish phy- .
tlclans who ever lived was Maimon-
born in Spain, he chose to
leave because of the disfranchise-
ment of the Jews and settled in
1166 m Fustat. Egypt, where he be-
came court physician to the Sultan
Saladin. Many of his works remain
There were, of course, many
splendid and famous Jewish physi-
cians In Spain and Portugal, the
best of whom served as physicians
to the various courts, all subject td
persecution and many to escape
banishment accepted Christianity.
Ii Is Interesting to note that in 1335
the Synod of Salamana declared
that Jewish physicians offered their
services only to kill as many Chris-
tians as possible. In 1412 John II
prohibited Jews from practicing in
Spain, which immediately caused a
general exodus to Prance. Algiers
and Italy.
In Portugal Solomon, ben Moses
Solomon was physician to Kings
Ferdinand and John I. Joseph and
Rodriques, physicians to John II of
Portugal, were members of the com-
mission to examine Columbus' plans.
In Italy the University of Saler-
mo. famous for its medical school.
"the Civitar, Hppocratica." had two
J( wish teachers in 848 and 855 nam-
ed Joseph and Joshua. The first
medical encyclopedia was written by
the Jewish teacher Copho. From
Salermo came many Jewish practi-
. one of whom was court phy-
lo Pope Boniface VIII.
In Prance, from 1000 to 1337, sev-
eral Jewish medical schools were
founded at Montpelier. Narhonne
and Paris, most importane of which
was the first.
In Germany there is no early rec-
ord of Jews practicing medican but
In 1267 the Council of Vienna for-
bade them practicing. Of interest is
the fact that in 1475 a Jewess by the
name of Zerlin was a practicing oc-
al Frankfort on the Main, as
'he earliest record of a Jew-
Ish woman physician in Germany.
One speculates why. with the con-
slant and never-ending persecution
Mid banishment of Jewish physi-
cians, why so many popes, rulers
and many of the lesser lights re-
talned them as their personal court
Physicians. On the whole, it may be
said that the 300 years ending about
1800 saw few outstanding Jewish
medical lights. They were usually
general practitioners, often combin-
ing the offices of rabbi and physi-
cian, and the probable reason for
their failure to have many worth-
while works was their constant fear
of banishment or death.

Educational Tax
Urged For Goods
NEW YORK. N. Y. A resolution
calling upon the manufacturers of
candles, matzohs and all other pro-
ducts which might be considered of
a religious nature to place a stamp
tax on their goods the proceeds to go
to Jewish education was adopted at
a meeting of the Federation of Ye-
shiveth and Talmud Torahs of New
York. A number of candle manu-
facturers, among them the Stand-
ard Oil Company, have already
agreed to the plan, it was stated.
The matzoh makers, it was admit-
ted, have declined to levy such a
tax. Several speakers urged that the
federation go into the matzoh bus-
iness, if the matzoh bakers refused
to levy a stamp tax for educational
purposes. On an estimated con-
sumption of 8,000,000 pounds of
matzoh in New York annually, $80.-
000 would be provided by a "torah
tax" for Jewish education, it was

'A Fine Excuse
I had the pleasure recently of be-
ing invited to meet some friends
who Jiad come down from the North
to spend a little time In Miami. We
chatted about days gone by. and
how things were working out rather
differently from what we had pic-
tured as children. As things will,
we gradually veered into a discus-
sion of things in Miami. Several
tourists, men of affairs in their
home towns, joined In the conver-
sation. We were interrupted during
the course of our talk, by a group of
women who told us they represented
a local welfare organization and
urged our tourist friends to pur-
chase some tickets for a dance. The
reply these good ladies received was
"We can do nothing for you ... we
do our share at home."
And now I join Issue. You good
tourists who come down to bask in
the Florida sunshine, to gather re-
newed vitality and strength for the
vicissitudes of business, DO OWE A
DUTY TO MIAMI and its commun-
Come with me, if you will, to the
offices of the Jewish Welfare bureau
and let me show you record after
record where men and women, yes,
and even children, coming directly
to Miami in search of health, of a
living, have been helped by Miam-
ians. I can show you the record of a
splendid little girl from the North,
who had been pronounced a hope-
less paralytic, who came to Miami
with her penniless parents and
thank Heaven and the good people
of Miami, is now making remark-
able progress and in time will be a
healthy, useful citizen and a pride
to her people.
Yes you excuse-seeking tour-
ists .. come with me to the He-
brew Friendly Inn and there see for
yourselves what is being done daily
'o help, not Miamians. but Jews of
the North.
It has been the pride of the Jew-
ish people that no call for help was
ever refused when it was found
worthy. Jews are brethren through-
out the world. We know not bar-
riers of oceans, state or clime. A Jew
is a Jew whether he be Polish, Aus-
trian. Russian. German, American
or whatever place he may have
come from. When a Jew asks for
help whether it be for food to satisfy
the physical self or for food to help
his spiritual needs, that cry must
be answered, and not by the ques-
tion, where do you come from?
U has been saifl and with much
truth "The man who gives at
home, gives wherever he may be."
The man who seeks to give excuses
a*ay from home, gives Just the
same and no more, when he is at
Following the French revolution
more liberty was granted the Jews
and we find them again becoming
students and practitioners of medi-
cine. It would be decidedly uninter-
esting to enumerate the many who
did splendid work, hence I shall on-
ly name a few of the really great
physicians of recent times.
Before I begin, let me say in pass-
ing that it is extremely interesting
to note that Jacob Eduard Polak,
Vienna, 1818-91. was court physician
to the Shah of Persia.
Probably one of the greatest anat-
omists of all times was Frederick
Gustov Jacob Henle. 1809-1885,
whose original work on the kidney
was sufficiently authoritative to
have a portion of that organ named
for him. Then there was Robert Se-
mak. Berlin. 1815-65. the first Jew-
ish privat-docent in Prussia admit-
ted to the faculty of the University
of Berlin for his discoveries in neur-
ology, embryology and electro-ther-
apy. Of famous pathologists let me
just mention Julius Cohnheim. Mor-
itz Henrich Romberg and Weigert.
Again. Ludwig Trauhe. Berlin, is
designated as the father of experi-
mental pathology.
Of opthalmologists, the city of
Baltimore was fortunate in hav-
ing Dr. Aaron Friedenwald practice
here. The splendid achievements of
his three illustrious sons. Dr. Harry
in the same field as his father: Dr.
Julius, who has specialized in dis-
eases of the stomach and intestines.
and Dr. Edgar, who follows the
practice of diseases of children.
Among the famous of yet more
recent date must be mentioned Al-
bert Neisser of Breslau, who discov-
ered the germ of gonorrhoea. Ern-
est Frankel. also of Breslau. gynec-
ologist and author of a magnificent
work on his specialty. Albert Moll,
of Berlin, who did so much original
work in embryology and neuropath-
ology. Paul Erlich of Frankfort on
the Main with his bacteriological
work, his side-chain theory of Im-
munity, and the discoverer of 606.
the cure of that dreaded disease,

February 2, 1933.
Rabbi Jacob H. Kaplan,
137 N. E. 19th St..
Miami, Fla.
Dear Rabbi Kaplan:
Just as I had announced to the
press that the Board of Directors of
the Joint Distribution Committee,
after very careful consideration of
conditions here and abroad, had
unanimously agreed that our basic
relief program must be maintained
the Jewish Telegraphic Agency ca-
bled a report which in a few words
describes the stark misery of the
Jewish populations in Europe.
"It is a commonplace to see chil-
dren in the schools faint from hun-
ger both in Warsaw and in the prov-
ince.' states the cable, adding that
the TOZ. a health organization sub-
sidized by the Joint Distribution
Committee, asserts that five or six
children faint in every classroom
Unfortunately, it is a common-
place that the Jews of Poland and
other lands in eastern and central
Europe have no one to turn to in
any crisis except their American
brethren. They do not, like the na-
tive populations abroad or any of
our citizens here, receive some mea-
sure of help and support from gov-
ernmental and private philanthropic
efforts of national or communal re-
lief. Their right to engage in any
type of employment is being nar-
rowed constantly with unconcealed
discrimination. Thousands of Jew-
ish homes are without food or heat,
in an atmosphere haunted by dis-
turbance and riot.
But it will never be a common-
place that the Jews of America,
whether we have much or little to
share, do not give what we can of
material aid and moral encourage-
ment to our brethren in misery and
With a clear knowledge of the dif-
ficulties here and even the sacrifices
that may be involved, the Joint Dis-
tribution Committee is appealing to
the Jews of America for support of
its 1933 overseas program.
In order not to incur field service
expense and to save every dollar we
can for remittance overseas, we
shall have to depend on our Jewish
community leaders to take the ini-
tiative wherever possible in making
their communities participants in
thus endeavor.
Please let me have your sugges-

first drink he felt 40: after the sec-
ond drink, 30; after the third drink,
16; and from then on, if his mam-
ma had asked him to tell the pretty
ladies his age, he would have said,
"Just thwee." Then, next morning,
he felt 108.

Everyone knows what is meant by
a "dark horse," but few know the
origin of the expression. The phrase
was first used by Thackeray in his

"Well, bless my soul, he can't
mean me. Who is the dark horse he
has in his stable?"

Are. the frenzied Chassidim and
their distracted, impassioned danc-

night's rest. Exorbitant prices were
asked for the privilege of sleeping
on a hard, uncomfortable mattress
in a corner of the Hachnosath Or-
ehitn. We finally settled for 50
piastres apiece, and tossed about
wildly in small camp cots, seeking
the soothing arms of Morpheus. We
were surrounded by several hun-
dreds of thoroughly exhausted indi-
viduals who snored balef ully
throughout the night. There were
several thousands of glutton-
ous mosquitoes, fully matured and
eager for a solid meal, setting up a
symphony orchestra which buzzed
and droned dismally, competing
with the snoring multitude. And.
through the open windows, came
the mellifluous chanting of the Se-

melancholy call of the fried liver

has had in the progress of the human race. Man's lot would have been
much harsher were it not for the softening influence of woman.
MEN who have attained greatness have, in a very large measure, been
guided into the right channels by mothers and wives. The very fact
that we have advanced from the barbaric stage is evidence of the influ-
ence of woman upon man. Because the mothers of the Stone Age refused
to be satisfied with caves for their children; because the mothers prodded
the fathers on to building better homes as protection for their children
from the elements and from wild beasts, we have, today, homes that are
safe and comfortable. Men who have introduced legislative measures to
improve living and working conditions have been inspired to do1 so by
women. The indefatigable workers in the cause of alleviating human suf-
fering have been women. The home, society's foundation, is the result of
womanly efforts.
WE men. take the credit for all of progress. Shall I attribute that to
the historians who have been men? It is not so under the rules
laid down by our Hebrew sages. Woman was held in high esteem. The
rabbis said "hakol min ho'ishoh" all things are due ta the woman
she is the cause of everything. Accordingly, they advised man to be con-
siderate of woman. Someone has written. "Jewish custom bids the Jewish
mother, after her preparations foi the Sabbath have been completed on
Friday evening, kindle the Sabbath lamp." That is symbolic of the Jew-
ish woman's influence on her own home, and through it upon larger cir-
cles. She is the inspirer of a pure, chaste, family life whose hallowing
influences are incalculable; she is the center of all spiritual endeavors,
the confidante and fosterer of every undertaking. To her the Talmudic
sentence applies: "It is woman alone through whom God's blessings are
vouchsafed to a house."
I recall an incident in a Jewish home several years ago. A member of
my congregation related this to me: His five-year-old son had re-
turned from his first day at Sunday school. The father, anxious to know
whether the experience had had any effect upon his son. questioned him
about the things he had learned that day. The little fellow, without any
hesitancy, repeated the lesson for the day. He told his father that he had
been taught about God's creating the world in six days and of the things
that had been created each day. "On the sixth day." said the five-year-
old, "late in the afternoon. God made Man." "How did He make Man?"
asked the father. "Why. God took some dirt, made a mud-man. breathed
into it and it became alive." said the youngster. "That's fine." encouraged
the father. "And what else did God make?" "A woman." replied the
child. "Yes." said the parent, "and did He make the woman from the dirt,
too?" The child hesitated a moment, then said. "No! God put the man
to sleep, took out his brains and made a woman."
rE child, unconsciously and in his simplicity, had expressed a great
truth. One of the greatest of Bible commentators, the Malbim. ex-
presses a similar thought, as does the Midrash. Because' of the use of
special Hebrew words in the record of God's creation of Eve, in Genesis,
the rabbis contend that the greater practical sense has been given to the
female of the species.
THERE are women whose very acts brand these statements as untrue.
Yes. and there are men whose very lives are examples of the iu'.'.^zy
of the supremacy of Man, But. with these we do not concern ourselves.
Men and women who have forfeited every right to the designation "human
beings" are not the types which concern us. The exception attracts our
attention because it is different from the general rule. It serves to streng-
then our desire to be classified with the normal not with the abnormal.
IN our scripture reading for today. Solomon speaks of the valorous and
virtuous woman "She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her
tongue is the law of kindness." That is the underlying theme in the con-
tribution that Woman has made to life kindness. While there have
been women who h. ve inspired men to war. they have been outnumbered
by the women who nave injected kindness into life. The Divine Spirit is
spoken of in the feminine gender the "Schechinah." Even the Lord is
referred to in the Hebrew pronouns, several times, in scripture, in the
feminine gender. No student considers God either masculine or feminine.
But. in considering the Divine attributes, femininity is ascribed to* the
Deity. You won't find that In your English translation of the Bible be-
cause in translating it is impossible to carry over the gender of a noun
or pronoun into a language where such grammatical forms do not exist.
The fact remains, however, that the feminine touch, the womanly influ-
ence, in life. Is as certain as the very principle and source of life God.
Waldorf Salad
Mix an equal quantity of sliced
celery and apples, add one-fourth
pound of pecans or English walnuts,
chopped fine. Put over a tablespoon
of lemon juice and sufficient Gel-
'and's mayonnaise dressing to thor-
oughly cover. To be absolutely cor-
rect, this salad should be served
without lettuce; it can. however, be
dialled on lettuce leaves.
Fish Salad for Twenty People
Boil four pounds halibut, cool and
shred fish. Marinate the fish. When
ready to serve ad six hard-boiled
eggs chopped, and one pint bottle
of pickles of chow-chow. The pickle
may be omitted and celery cut fine
be added. When these are well
mixed serve on lettuce leaves with
' Gelfand's mayonnaise dressing, of
i which one pint will be required.
Grapefruit Salad
Cut the grapefruit in halves and
j remove the pulp, being careful to
^et none of the tough white skin.
Mix with bananas and oranges and
stir in mayonnaise dressing. Remove
all skin from inside of the grape-
fruit and fill with the mixture,
heaping it high and ornamenting
with maraschino cherries. Lay each
half in a bed of lettuce leaves and
Brain Salad
Scald brains with boiling hot wat-
er to cleanse thoroughly. Boil until
tender, in fresh cold salt water, be-
ing careful to remove from the wat-
er while it is yet firm. Slice length-
wise and lay in dish. Pour over
one-half cup of vinegar which has
been sweetened with a pinch of sug-
ar to remove sharps taste, pinch of
salt and pepper. Garnish with par-
sley and serve cold. Can also be
served with mayonnaise.
Sweetbread Salad
Take cucumbers and cut length-
wise to serve the salad In; scrape
out the inside and salt well. Then
squeeze and use this to mix with
the filling. Take a pair of sweet-
breads, or calf's brains, wash well
and boil; when done throw in cold
water at once and skim them; chop
': fine, add bunch of celery, one can
of French peas, scraped part of cu-
cumber. Mix all together and sea-
son. Mix mayonnaise with It and
I fill cucumber shells; keep all cold,
i and serve on lettuce leaf.
Honey Sandwich Fillings
Honey in sandwich fillings brings
extra goodness to the lunch. Blend
with cream cheese, chopped nuts,
raisins and celery, chopped carrots,
peanut butter, dates chopped (with
or without nuts) and many other
combinations. You'll find them all
different and delicious, easy to make
yet most appetizing. In sand-
wichesplain, rolled, ribbon or tier
honey assures additional flavor,
keeps the sandwich moist, and holds
crumbly bread together. A good
combination in new form: honey
bread roll thoroughly blend one
cup finely cut salted pecans with
one-hall cup slightly warmed honey
to form spreading paste. Cut bread
in slices full length of loaf (ordi-
nary loaf cuts five lengthwise sli-
ces'. Spread with butter, then with
honey pecan paste, and roll as for
jelly roll. Wrap each in waxed pa-
per and tie to keep intact. Let stand
an hour or longer: remove paper
and cut each -oll in three slices
each loaf used makes 15.

In splendid voice, Joseph Z. Shlis-

ocal music critics last Sunday af-
ernoon at the Temple theatre with
his rendition of not only the fa-
miliar liturgical music and Jewish
oik songs but in the able and dis-
inctlve manner he sang a number
f difficult operatic arias in the or-
iginal Italian. One not knowing
Shlisky and merely listening to his
voice imagines that the possessor of
so strong and robust a tenor voice
must be a man of gigantic physique,
tut the sight of so small and slender
.1 man soon astounds the hearer.
Receiving continuous applause,
Shlisky graciously responded with
.'veral encores.
Particularly touching and feeling
vere Shlisky's renditions of "Av
Horachamim" and 'Omar Rabbi El-
?zor." The Yiddish typical Chassid-
lc folk song, "A Brief Tzum Reb-

"Blondie of the Follies." Marion
Da vies' new starring picture with
Robert Montgomery featured, comes
Sunday and Monday to the New 7th
Avenue theatre.
In directing this comedy drama,
Edmund Goulding, whose wizardry
was exemplified in his direction of
Grand Hotel," saw new possibilities
in enlarging the production as he
went along, with the result that the
supporting cast reflects the names of
personalities not contemplated in
the original scheme of things.
Blondie of the Follies" was a
veritable snowball in the matter of
cast names, gaining in size and im-
portance as filming progressed. To
begin with, there were, besides Mar-
ion Davics, Robert Montgomery.
Billie Dove, James Glcason. Zasu
Pitls. Sidney Toler, Douglass Dum-
brille, Sarah Padden and Louise
Carter. That alone is a cast of im-
pressive proportions.
But as the story pursued its mer-
ry way through the glitter of the
Ziegfeld Follies, gay parties on Park
Avenue and the contrasting humble-
ness of New York tenement life,
Goulding began assembling more ce-
lebrities. Last minute additions
brought into the cast the names of
such stars of the entertainment
world as Jimmy Durante, Clyde
Cook, and the Rocky Twins from the
Paris musical stage. The completed
cast is the most illustrious array of
bo-office names with which Marion
Davies has been surrounded.
Celebrating the seventy fourth
birthday of P. Lerner, a group of
friends assembled for dinner and
dancing last week at the Hotel Flo-
ridian Supper club. The table was
decorated with flowers and candles.
The party included Mrs. Charles
Lerner, Mr. and Mrs. Ephraim Sam-
uels, Isador Lerner, Dr. and Mrs.
Bernard Berkowitz, Mrs. Samuel A.
Lerner, Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Lerner,
Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Ginsberg, Mr.
and Ms. Michael Lerner, Mr. and
Mrs. Albert Kaffenburgh, Miss Bar-
bara Lerner, Miss Ruth Lerner, Al-
an Lerner, Robert Lerner, William
Lerner, Mrs. Jennie Shiers.
Mrs. L. Lehrer, wife of Rabbi Laz-
arus Lehrer of Asheville, N. C, is

and amused with what happens
when Europe's most accomplished
thief finds himself face to face with
Vienna's most fascinating noble-
woman. Kay Francis is the Baron-
ess Teri. whose boast it has always

cious stones had been the ruling
passion of her life until the after-

noon when she, her husband and
her friends are the victims of the
"Robber's" most daring coup in Vi-
enna's most exclusive Jewelry shop.
For the first time in her luxurious
vain existence, the Baroness forgets
her Jewels in her admiration for a
man. And though the Robber's en-
terprise is successful, he finds him-
self madly in love with the beautiful
Having stolen the lady's Jewels
and her heart along with them, the
"Robber" coolly proceeds to steal
the lady herself.
From that moment, the duel of
wits between the two becomes more
and more intense.
Powell lives the character with a
zest that is absolutely irresistible.
Those who have become accustomed
to Kay Francis as the serious, earn-
est heroine of her recent pictures
will be astonished and charmed by
her interpretation of the flirtatious,
irresponsible wife of Vienna's rich-
est banker.
Other members of the supporting
cast are Helen Vinson, Hardie Al-
bright, Henry Kolker, Andre Luguet,
Lee Kohlmar and Spencer Charters.

Tory. In a letter to Mrs. Paca. wife
of one of the delegates to congress,
she described the social activities of
Philadelphia, and asked her friend
to persuade her husband to allow
her to attend some of the British
fi tivities,
A diverting incident and one that
widely discussed was the chal-
lenge to a duel sent to Rebecca by
eccentric General Charles Lee of the
American army. She had made fun
I of his breeches, saying that 'hey
were patched. In rather caustic lan-
ding to her Jewish ail-
he wrote saying that his cos-

Mrs. Flanks must have protested
against his discourteous words, for
he explained that whatever he said
was intended as a joke to bring B
smile in sad times; that he consid-
ered that she had too great under-
standing to be offended by it. The
challenge was merely intended as an
innocent "jeu d'esprit."
Her wit. however, spared neither

her dressed in a suit of scarlet.
"I have adoptde your colors, my

She did not reply, but said to
those around her. "How the ass

The only thing missing on Wednesday in Regent Square was a truck carrying caramels and chocolate.
With it, there could have been to potential to unintentionally create a local version of Ben & Jerry's "Late Night Snack" ice cream on the street.
Edgewood police report that a Herr's Potato Chips truck had a side mirror broken by a passing ice cream truck near the intersection of South Braddock and West Hutchinson avenues.
Fortunately, a meltdown and crush were avoided. The damage was so minor that it ended up being a non-reportable accident, according to police.
"Late Night Snack" ice cream was inspired by NBC's "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon." According to Ben & Jerry's website, "Late Night Snack" is vanilla bean ice cream with a salty caramel swirl and fudge-covered potato chip clusters.

Gentoo for All the Unusual Reasons
-- Andrew Frederick Cowie Operational Dynamics Consulting Pty Ltd
interesting article
An interesting article. I've been thinking of playing with Gentoo for a while. The idea of easily being able to build customized packages appeals to me, as it's seems to be like rocket science on Debian...
no so hard
Just 2 commands for any standard source (./configure based) :
dpkg-build -rfakeroot
Nothing else...
I have seen debian boxes tota
I have seen debian boxes totally corrupted by this kind of installation
Debian is particullary picky about extern packages, gentoo will build any package acording to your new choice if needed.
What if you do that for kdelibs ? gtk ? glibc ? the system will suffer, not on gentoo !
Another overlooked benefit is
Another overlooked benefit is Security. Gentoo Hardened includes tons of excellent security features including SELinux, and you are not limited like other security-focused distributions. You can install basically any software on Linux, and the binary is automatically hardened; just check the configuration.
I use gentoo on every compute
I use gentoo on every computer i got on my home, If you want an easy to install gentoo based distribution with graphical instalation you should check Vidalinux Desktop. Is based on gentoo but is using Redhats anaconda to install everything. http:://desktop.vidalinux.com :-D
good golly, did you see the minimum system requirements?
Minimum Supported Configuration:
AMD Athlon XP or Pentium 4 compatible processor, 1.0 Ghz; 10-GB hard disk; 256-MB RAM; 800x600 screen resolution
Recommended Configuration:
AMD Athlon XP or Pentium 4 compatible processor, 2.0 Ghz or faster; at least 20-GB hard disk; at least 512-MB RAM; 1024x768 screen resolution or better
where gentoo's minimum system requirements are:
Hardware Requirements
CPU i486 or later
Memory 64 MB
Diskspace 1.5 GB (excluding swap space)
Swap space At least 256 MB
does anaconda really take this much power?
I've been using Linux for ove
I've been using Linux for over 10 years and Gentoo was the distro to pull me away from Win32 for daily use. It's takes a little work for the initial install and the larger compiles like kde. Once installed its great. Easy to use, maintain and update. Seems you have what you need in the version your looking for, including its dependances.
Great Distro. Next Debian & Slackware (Slack being my 1st Linux distro) then Mandrake and Suse. All Great.
The main thing is to Enjoy Linux no matter the distro!

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

If you already use virtualized infrastructure, you are well on your way to leveraging the power of the cloud. Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn't scale? In today's hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.

The Farmers Bank of Virginia built this Petersburg branch in 1817. Its Board of Directors raised $208,000 in capital. Here, in one of the oldest surviving bank buildings in America, you can see its heavy safe which was kept in the cashier's office during banking hours and lowered through the floor to the vault below at night. It features a restored period kitchen and courtyard. The bank survived the Civil War by printing its own money but closed in 1865.

After years of world cup victories, and market based awards, we are now launching a new even more revolutionary edition of our racing line. Power Spine Technology, Left & Right construction, Amphibio® Profile will raise the level of the racing skis.
New SLX changes the rules of the racing world. Power Spine technology, the genetic evoloution of race ski construction, with its spine and bones, provides better edge grip and torsional stability, Amphibio® Profile allows faster and direct turn initiation.
This new technology has been developed in the entire race range which also includes the FIS skis, the GSX and the Ripstick skicross model used by Filip Flisar in the Ski Cross World Cup.
An uncompromised innovation delivering both camber and rocker profile benefits at the same time. The cambered inside edge supports Power Spine technology and assures edge grip and stability and the rockered outside edge allows faster and more direct turns.
The Fusion System is the world's first truly integrated ski binding system, paving the way for faster turn initiation, smoother flex and easier turning and enhanced edge-to-edge responsiveness.
Power Spine is characterized by a special construction that follows the distributions of forces from the legs to the ski. The ski's interior construction, spine arch, is stronger and reinforced with a carbon layer along its entire length. The side elements/bones assure torsional stability also on the outside of the ski. The new technology has been developed in the whole race range, which also includes the FIS skis, the GSX and the Ripstick skicross model used by Filip Flisar in the Ski Cross World Cup.
Elan Race skis are the first race skis with real left & right construction. Starting from the analysis of force distribution, the outcome has been the combination of Power Spine technology with Amphibio® Profile and asymmetric tip and tail that enable the best transmission of forces from the legs to the snow, assuring unrivalled performances on the most demanding slopes.

The Danville News
RIVERSIDE — Borough administrators are already impressed with the work a local Boy Scout is putting into his still under construction Eagle project.
Chris Morgan, age 16, of Riverside's Boy Scout Troop 33, is installing seven flagpoles in front of the war memorial in back of Riverside's borough office building. The seven flags will consist of an American flag, a POW/MIA flag and flags for the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard.
"He really deserves this Eagle award," said borough secretary Deb Bausch.
"Speaking as a council member, I couldn't be more flattered that he chose to do this for the borough," said council member John LaMotte. "I think he went over and beyond what I've seen some Eagle Scout projects do. He's a very energetic young man, he raised a lot of money. It's just an outstanding project for the borough of Riverside."
Last weekend, Chris and about 16 volunteers helped dig out holes needed to pour in the concrete base for the flagpoles. "In one weekend, we got five out of the seven holes for the concrete bases," said Chris.
He and his volunteers, including his father, Mike, LaMotte, and LaMotte's 8-year old son, Jacob, worked from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on March 30.
The afternoon of April 4, Chris, his father, and troop member Kyle Roberts, age 11, began setting up the PVC sleeves that will hold the flagpoles in place once they are installed.
"I'm very pleased with how it's coming along so far," said Chris. "I know all the people who worked there on Saturday said they were thoroughly pleased with how far it came along."
Landscaping work is scheduled for May, and Chris is looking for volunteers to assist with that work. Merrell's Nursery has given him layouts for foliage to use around the memorial as well as pricing for plants.
Chris anticipates the project will cost a total of $6000. He currently has $4700 raised, with donations coming from the local American Legion post and Southside Fire Company, as well as individual residents.
Anybody who wishes to assist Chris in his project can contact him via email at email@example.com.
