Gallery: UCLA's new men's basketball coach Steve Alford introduced
VINCENT BONSIGNORE: Steve Alford seems well-prepared for UCLA job
For Steve Alford's official introduction Tuesday, UCLA pulled out all the stops.
Whereas past hires have most often been welcomed in smaller press conference rooms, the program's 13th head coach received a grand stage on the floor of Pauley Pavilion.
Bruins past and present spilled out into bleacher seating as well as fold-out chairs. The UCLA dance team stood by too, though it did not dance. Even Shaquille O'Neal was in attendance, sneaking in to hug Alford about as surreptitiously as a man of his size can.
As the former New Mexico coach stood before a massive media contingent, he waxed on about all the right things: his childhood idolization of fellow Hoosier and Bruins coaching legend John Wooden; his respect for the recently fired Ben Howland; his excitement to take on the challenge of coaching the Bruins.
"When you think of college basketball at its pinnacle, it's UCLA," Alford said.
The 48-year-old has only a 5-7 record in the NCAA tournament - the most recent loss coming in embarrassing fashion last week to No. 14-seeded Harvard - but the Bruins are betting he'll do better with increased resources.
They're also hoping he resonates with the players in a way that Howland couldn't.
Tuesday didn't only signal Alford's introduction to the public, but also his first in-person meeting with the players he'll soon try to guide. In this respect, the hire has already paid immediate dividends. Sophomore guard Norman Powell said he had strongly considered transferring out until the coaching change, but is now set on staying in Westwood.
Most of the team sat in for Alford's noon spiel with two notable exceptions: Pac-12 Co-Freshman of the Year Shabazz Muhammad, who is widely expected to leave for the NBA draft, and freshman big man Tony Parker. The latter, who averaged just 6.3 minutes per game under Howland, is still undecided about whether he will transfer.
Freshman guard Jordan Adams said Parker was still at home in Georgia, and will fly back to start school Wednesday.
Adams -- who is still six weeks away from getting the cast off his broken right foot -- said he looked forward to playing for Alford, but had never heard much about him before the hire.
"I watched New Mexico play a couple of times this year," he said, "but I never really looked at it like he would be coaching me for the next year or something."
Repeated often since the hire has been the sales pitch about Alford's "up-tempo" style. Only one of his six Lobos squads has ranked in the nation's top 150 in adjusted tempo, but he was nevertheless insistent that his Bruins would entertain next year.
"Our system has been that way," Alford said. "We like to run. We like to get up and down the floor. Probably of our six years at New Mexico, this was the one year we had to play a little differently just because we had a team that didn't shoot the ball very well."
Added athletic director Dan Guerrero: "His kids play hard. He lets them play, which I think is important. I think our fans will enjoy his style of play."
There is a blight on Alford's player-friendly reputation. As Iowa's coach in 2002, he vigorously defended guard Pierre Pierce's innocence when the star was faced with allegations of sexual assault. Pierce later pleaded to a lesser charge, but kept his spot on the team until 2005. That year, he was dismissed from the team and eventually pleaded guilty to burglary and intent to commit sexual assault.
"All I can tell you with that situation is I followed everything that the University of Iowa, the administration, the lawyers that were hired," Alford said, "I did everything that I was supposed to do at the University of Iowa in that situation.
Guerrero said that history was vetted during the hiring process, but declined to go into any detail about what Alford had to say about the episode.
"We feel, where we are now in the situation - it happened 11 years ago," Guerrero said. "He gets a clean slate here. We move forward and go from there."

PA defends detention of dissenting journalists (JERUSALEM POST) By KHALED ABU TOAMEH 04/02/12)
Source: http://www.jpost.com/MiddleEast/Article.aspx?id=264414
JERUSALEM POST Articles-Index-Top
The PA defended on Sunday its crackdown on Palestinian journalists and said it was acting in accordance with the law.
The Palestinian Journalists Syndicate, meanwhile, called for the release of two Palestinian journalists whom PA security forces arrested last week in the West Bank.
Accusing the PA of violating media freedoms, the syndicate demanded the immediate release of reporters Youssef Al-Shayeb and Esmat Abdel Khalik, who were arrested separately.
Al-Shayeb was arrested for exposing corruption in the Palestinian diplomatic mission in France, while Abdel Khalik, a prominent female journalist and blogger, was taken into custody for posting comments on Facebook against PA President Mahmoud Abbas.
Throwing a female journalist into prison is a dangerous precedent and a violation of all society traditions, the syndicate said in a statement published in Ramallah. This is also a real setback for Palestinian journalists.
The detention of the two journalists has been extended for 15 days pending their trial.
PA Attorney-General Ahmed Al-Mughni, announced Sunday that his government has no problem arresting journalists who break the law.
The PA does not pursue or harass journalists, Al-Mughni told reporters in Ramallah.
When we receive a complaint, we take the necessary legal measures, he added.
According to the attorney-general, Al-Shayeb published an investigative report in a Jordanian newspaper that was based on lies and fabrications.
He said that Al-Shayeb will be charged with slander and defamation following a complaint against him by PA Foreign Minister Riyad al- Maliki and the staff at the Palestinian mission in France.
When Al-Shayeb failed to reveal the sources for his report, he was summoned for interrogation and later ordered to be held in detention, Al-Mughni said.
Al-Shayebs colleagues said over the weekend that he has gone on a hunger strike in protest against his arrest.
Referring to the case of Abdel Khalik, the attorney-general accused her of posting comments on Facebook against Abbas.
He said that one of the comments read: Down with the traitor Mahmoud Abbas.
Another comment, according to Al-Mughni, denounced Abbas as a fascist. (© 1995-2011, The Jerusalem Post 04/02/12)

A man has faced court accused of murdering Stephen Ramon Cookson, whose head washed up in a plastic bag on a Rottnest Beach earlier this month.
The appearance coincided with a court case in which Cookson was due to face charges of possession and intent to sell or supply methylamphetamine.
Guildford man Aaron Carlino, 28, who appeared in Perth Magistrates Court on Friday morning, is alleged to have killed Cookson.
Mr Carlino was wearing a slim fitting grey shirt in court and was supported by family members in the public gallery.
It was revealed that the alleged murder took place on December 15.
Mr Carlino's appearance was brief. He was not required to enter a plea but had to indicate that he understood the charge against him.
He was remanded in custody and the matter will come before the Stirling Magistrates Court again on February 6.
Mr Carlino was arrested on Thursday night, following a search on a Golden Bay house, 60 kilometres south of Perth, on Wednesday afternoon.
Cookson, who was officially named as the deceased on Wednesday, was well known in horse racing circles and had connections to Perth's criminal underworld.
Cookson's co-accused in the methylamphetamine case, Loriana Crews, 62 and Lejla Tresnjo, 38, did not attend court this morning.
The pair are facing two counts each of drug possession with intent to sell and supply.
A date is yet to be set for their trial, although it is likely to be around April.
Cookson's lawyer Mark Andrews moved to discontinue the charges against his client, due to his deceased nature.

Alaska is famous for the rugged beauty of its mountains, rivers, and coastlines, as well as for the distinctive arts and crafts produced by Alaska Native artists. If you are considering purchasing an Alaska Native-made art or craft item, it's smart to invest a little time learning about the processes and materials Alaska Natives may use to make these unique and beautiful objects.
Any item produced after 1935 that is marketed with terms like "Indian," "Native American," or "Alaska Native" must have been made by a member of a state or federally-recognized tribe or a certified non-member Indian artisan. That's the law.
A certified Indian artisan is an individual certified by the governing body of the tribe of his or her descent as a non-member Indian artisan
For example, it would violate the law to advertise products as "Inupiaq Carvings" if the products were produced by someone who isn't a member of the Inupiaq tribe or certified in writing by the tribal governing body as a non-member Alaska Native artisan of the Inupiaq people.
Qualifiers like "ancestry," "descent," and "heritage" used in connection with the terms "Indian," "Alaska Native," or the name of a particular Indian tribe do not mean that the craftsperson is a member of an Indian tribe or certified by a tribe. For example, "Native American heritage" or "Yupik descent" would mean that the artist is of descent, heritage, or ancestry of the tribe. These terms may be used only if they are truthful.
Alaska Native arts and crafts are sold through many outlets, including tourist stores, gift shops, art galleries, museums, cultural centers, and the Internet. Here are some tips to help you shop wisely:
It can be difficult to distinguish arts and crafts produced by Alaska Natives from items that are imitations: Price, materials, appearance, and traditional subsistence materials are important clues to provenance.
Sculptures and carvings by Alaska Natives vary in size, and often portray animals or people. Before you buy a carving, learning about mediums commonly used can help you authenticate work.
Marine mammal ivory is a popular and expensive medium used by Alaska Native carvers. New "white" ivory can have "breathing cracks," or thin black lines that occur naturally and should add to the beauty of the piece. By law, new marine mammal ivory may be carved only by Alaska Natives and sold only after it has been carved. Old ivory can be carved by non-Natives. Fossilized mammoth ivory may be used by Alaska Natives and non-Natives alike. Fossilized ivory is rare and more expensive. Because of the natural variation in fossilized ivory, no two carvings have the same pattern or color.
Soapstone is a soft rock with a soapy feel. Alaska Native artists may use it because it's widely available and easy to carve. Soapstone ranges in color from gray to green, and while it scratches easily, it also resists acids, chemicals, and heat.
Marine mammal bone, from whales and other marine animals, is used to create carvings and masks. Bone masks are made from the vertebrae or disk of whales, and range in color from light tan to dark brown. Bone items are lighter and more porous than ivory, and tend to be less expensive.
Alabaster, a white or translucent stone imported to Alaska, is used as a sculpture medium by some Alaska Natives.
Alaska Native artists also produce baskets, dolls, drums, masks, prints, and etchings.
Baleen, a flexible material from the jaw of baleen whales, is used to make baskets, scrimshaw etchings, miniature ships and dioramas. Scrimshaw etchings often portray stories from the artist's unique culture; and are reminiscent of techniques introduced by Boston whalers in the 1800s.
Alaska dolls, handcrafted by many Alaska Native women, reflect unique styles. Dolls may portray daily activities of the artist's people. Doll clothes and bodies may be made from a variety of materials including calf skin (a caribou/reindeer hide replacement non-native to the area), mink, badger, sea otter, arctic rabbit, seal, or beaver. Sun bleached, dried marine mammal intestine, which is white or slightly yellowed and looks like wax paper, is sometimes used for clothing. Fur from musk ox, wolverine, and wolf are sometimes used for traditional doll clothing. Some doll makers use baleen or ivory inlay for the eyes.
Alaska Native prints are produced using a variety of techniques. Serigraphy, called screen printing or silk screening, involves printing through a surface, similar to a stencil technique. Relief print making is done from a raised surface, like cut stone, linoleum block, or wood block. Intaglio print making is created using the recessed image from the surface of etchings or engravings on metal plates of copper and tin. Lithography uses an oil-water resistance technique to print a design from stone or metal plates to paper.

LWC Associate Professor of Accounting Rose Garvey, left, works with
students Kelly Patterson of Windsor, Ky., center, and Megan Coe of
Jamestown, Ky.
COLUMBIA, Ky. -- Lindsey Wilson College
accounting students are offering a tax break for area residents
this season: free income tax preparation.
Through a partnership with the AARP Foundation, Lindsey Wilson
students -- under the supervision of an accounting professor -- are
offering free tax preparation every Monday night through April 8 to
area residents. The service is part of the AARP Tax-Aide Program.
AARP membership is not required to take advantage of the free
service, and there are no age restrictions.
Area residents will be assisted by volunteer student
counselors who have been trained by the Internal Revenue Service.
After the tax preparation is complete, the counselors will file
returns electronically, free of charge.
The free service is offered from 4-7:30 p.m. CT every Monday
through April 8 on a first-come, first-served basis. No
appointments are accepted.
"The program is designed to assist taxpayers by completing
income tax forms and informing them of special tax benefits that
may be available to them," said LWC Associate Professor of
Accounting Rose Garvey. "The counselors are Lindsey
Wilson accounting students, who are certified by the IRS to prepare
basic, individual tax returns."
LWC has offered the service in the past, and Garvey said it's
been very popular with area residents.
"Residents are often pleased to learn about benefits
available to them," she said.
For example, Garvey noted that statistics show that 20-25
percent of working families who qualify for the Earned Income
Credit and Child Tax Credit do not claim those
"Past experience has indicated that many older persons and
low- to moderate-income persons are unaware of special benefits
that they are entitled to claim," Garvey said. "Some may not be
required to file because of limited income. On the other hand, some
residents may need to file in order to take advantage of benefits
available to them."
To take advantage of the free service, residents should bring
a legal picture identification card; a Social Security card for the
taxpayer and all dependents; copies of last year's federal and
state tax returns; all relevant documentation of income and
expenses of the current tax year, such as W-2 and 1099 forms. If
spouses file jointly, they must attend the session together, and
each spouse must have a legal photo ID card and Social Security
For more information about the free service, contact LWC
VISTA Coordinator Candice Armstrong at email@example.com or

Thorndike calls this comedy "perhaps the best representation of the collaboration" of these dramatists in that kind.
"I have been trying to get at you for an age," said Mrs. Thorndike Freeman, laughing.
The judge leaned over his desk and shook Mr. Thorndike by the hand.
To Mr. Thorndike it was evident that young Andrews had entirely forgotten him.
Seated on the rail, with their hands in their pockets and their backs turned to Mr. Thorndike, they laughed and talked together.
It was summer and Mr. Thorndike was sitting on the piazza smoking a cigar.
Mr. Thorndike half rose from his seat, and looked after him.
Are you not a little rash, Mr. Thorndike, to offer me a place when you know so little of me?
"Well, he picked the flowers, anyway," laughed Mr. Thorndike.
Mr. Thorndike repeated the statement he had already made to Carl.
Thorndike Thorn·dike (thôrn'dīk'), Edward Lee. 1874-1949.
American educational psychologist noted for his study of animal intelligence and for his methods of measuring intelligence.

Our Dearest Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Bless! The Lord!
We know from the Holy Scriptures, our living Christian Faith and Traditions, and the direct experience of all the Saints that God is both eternal and yet lived on earth in our temporal time. He was and is fully God and fully Man. At this time of the year, we commemorate an entire season which prepares us physically and spiritually to be ready to receive Christ when He appears on earth, for all time that He sanctified on earth now echoes throughout eternity. When we celebrate His birth, we do not just remember Him, but, if we have purified our minds and hearts sufficiently, as many saints have, it is possible to see the truth that Christ is truly born on earth. Glorify Him!
That is what the Nativity Season is all about. It is a preparation to better receive Christ. Through more fasting, prayer, generous deeds, spiritual reading, church services, and the reading of the Holy Scriptures, at this time we cleanse our hearts from the passions, self-love, and a distracted and too busy worldly life. In our everyday life we often drift along without the conscious awareness that Christ and Heaven are near to us, and that this is truly the most precious and important thing for us in our life. To make a change to see God as near, real, and constant, it takes conscious and consistent effort to calm down the wandering mind, and our erupting thoughts, feelings, and impressions that crowd out eternity with merely temporal awareness.
The Fall Season is quickly slipping into Winter, if not officially, then at least practically. We are approaching the shortest days of the year, with less sunshine and daylight, longer nights, and colder temperatures. It is a time for moving from outdoor busyness to more indoor activities.
Because of an unexpected window of opportunity of sunny days with temperatures in the 70's last week, we were able to make a major dent in cutting, loading, moving, unloading, and stacking our winter wood supply near the Common Monastic Building in the back Skete Valley. We were able to move about nine cords of wood, which had been cut, and stack about four of them (a cord, by the way, equals a slightly overfull full sized pickup load, or 144 cubic feet of space). This coming week we hope to move the last four cords, then split about eight or nine of them and finish stacking it all near the wood-burning boiler.
What made us so thankful, was that unexpectedly, a dedicated friend and volunteer from Rockford, Illinois, showed up to help after he read our last newsletter where we mentioned that we were hoping for some help with this sizable (and seemingly overwhelming) project. God bless Zakaria. He had a break from his construction work, a chain saw to bring, and lots of good energy and attitude which made this project possible, just when it seemed most unlikely. When we are unable to help ourselves, even though not from laziness or neglect, God often intervenes.
Wood Prepared for the Winter
That brings us to the main point of this newsletter, which is the fifth one to be mailed to our friends and donors this year: thankfulness. That is easy, like in this instance when things go so obviously right, and out of the blue. It is not so easy when things are hard, long, tiring, or seem to go the wrong way. Yet, like in some of the icons where God's hand is blessing in one of the upper corners, He is always there, and unlikely as it may seem at the time, He is always blessing. What is hard to get over is our limited expectations.
The word in Greek for thankfulness or thanksgiving is eucharistia, the basis for our word eucharist, which is used to describe the Divine Liturgy in the Church. Eucharistia should not just be limited to that great and blessed Mystery of Faith and Love, but to every aspect of our lives. Like seeing God near and dear, this takes practice looking with different eyes and mind. When we do it, we can be always thankful.
We here at the Skete have more to be thankful for at this time. Our last donation appeal was very helpful and we had more responses to that appeal than the one before it, even though the average donation was somewhat smaller. By seeming chance (if you believe in such things), we were able to find another older used van without a transmission in it that was going to be salvaged with less miles on the engine than the van we mentioned that was dying in the last newsletter. It became obvious when a friend and mechanic saw it, that our other van was not safe to drive anymore, so we have sent it up to him to swap the transmission and get us something to drive around in this winter. While still not what we wanted, it was a good alternative for now.
The last steel roof over the office was completed since the last newsletter, and a new shingle roof was put over the convent. We have a new (for us) used wood boiler here for the monks cells in the back Skete valley which we got for a wonderful price and it was paid for. This will have to wait until next year to get the solar electricity upgrade so it can be installed and run properly.
Another useful piece of equipment is coming in December and is over half paid for- a used steer skidder (commonly known as a Bobcat), with a used trailer to haul it when needed, which is fully paid for. Our beater 1991 Ford 4 x 4 truck got two new gas tanks (it is built with a secondary tank) to replace the two too old to fix ones. We used it to haul the firewood the next day. Our road to the back Skete valley which was majorly disturbed to be almost impassible was fixed after a two month wait. That happened just hours before we started hauling wood.
These are all indicators of support and help from the outside which is very timely and for which we are very thankful. But more importantly, our thankfulness is for the spiritual life that we are allowed to live here, the spiritual work that we are blessed to do here, and the dear spiritual friends that we are allowed to know and cherish. You are a conscious part of that cherishing.
At the end of November, we have the American holiday of Thanksgiving. Let us remember God and His abundant goodness for us then and throughout the year. The Nativity Fast and Advent Season is a time to reflect on God coming to earth to be with us, even while we are still sinners. This preparation is a time to get ready for the great thanksgiving of being with Christ at His Nativity into this fallen world, for He is truly of our flesh and bone, so He knows our joys, sorrows, and every human emotion, but without sin.
In this spirit of thanksgiving, we also wish to thank you for your heartfelt prayer and financial support throughout this last year. Traditionally November and December have been a major part of our donations received each year. We hope that this November and December will be the same. We most ardently hope that our mutual prayers will rise like incense before the Lord Who will be born in Bethlehem "as a young child." We also most ardently pray that we will come together before His modest manger filled with Life, for He is the Lord of Life.
Please remember Mother Elizabeth, in the Convent of St. Silouan nearby, who lives in an older mobile home with limited space and amenities (and now a new shingled roof). She has more health needs because of her diabetes and the winters are hard on her mobility. She is busy working on organizing our educational research library to help access to the books written for our Orthodox educational work.
Struggles are not always a problem. Sometimes they are a spiritual solution. When we struggle, we more often turn to God for help, consolation, and a deeper relationship. This is a blessing in disguise. Let us struggle together to make this season blessed and thankful, and to really thank God that no matter how far we have strayed from Him, He is still close and waiting for us. He is coming. He is near. Soon we will say, "Christ is born! Glorify Him!"
God bless your good hearts,
The brotherhood of St. Isaac of Syria Skete and the Sisterhood of St. Silouan's Convent, and the Community at St. Nicholas Church

Well, well, well. Another day. Another first. Wigs. Dyed wigs. Wigs dyed with Sharpie. Who knew?
JonelB on Twitter gave me the heads up (ha! Heads up. Get it?!?!) Seems there's a whole world of people out there using Sharpies to custom dye wigs. Jonel pointed me to Cosplay.com and one of their forum threads where you can pick up everything you need to know about how to dye a wig to your particular specifications. On the thread was Jaina Solo who offered a great how-to:
I just dyed a wig yesterday with sharpies! I think there are two ways you can do it:
1) Take a sharpie, grab some hair, and start coloring. This is a very long and tedious process and takes a lot of sharpies depending on how long the wig is, but the results look very nice. Once you are done sharpieing the whole wig, rinse it in cold water until the water is clear, then let the wig dry completely. If you see any spots that you missed, go back and sharpie it and then rinse the wig again.
2) Harvest the sharpie ink well and mix it with alcohol so you can dunk or spray the wig with it. This can be a messy process, and the alcohol can cause the ink to streak if you're not careful, but it's much faster than having to hand-color an entire wig, especially if it's a long one. This is the process I used, and what I did was I cracked open a sharpie, took out the ink well and placed it into a jar of alcohol. At first, I just shook the bottle of alchohol every once in a while to get the ink out of the well and into the alchohol, but I noticed that this was taking a long time and wasn't getting all the ink out, so instead I grabbed the ink well and squeezed out as much ink as I could into the alcohol. It was messy but it worked great. Since I was dying a long wig very dark, I used an entire liter of 70% alcohol mixed with 10 sharpies. I then dunked the wig into the mixture (by this time I was using a bowl), and I let the wig dry. However, when letting the wig dry, do NOT hang it on a wig head or by its scalp–the alcohol dripping off with strip the ink off, leaving a very irregular dye job. Lay the wig on a drop cloth on the ground somewhere flat, so that the alcohol can't drip off the wig and take ink with it!
And just when you think you couldn't possibly know another thing about the universe because you already know everything, along comes Cosplay. What is Cosplay, you may be wondering? Me too. Here's the Wikipedia explanation. Here's my short outtake:
Short for "costume play," Cosplay is a type of performance art whose participants outfit themselves, with often-elaborate costumes and accessories, as a specific character. Characters are usually sourced in various Japanese and East Asian media, including manga, anime, tokusatsu, comic books, graphic novels, video games, and fantasy movies. Other sources include performers from J-pop, J-rock, Visual Kei, fantasy music stories (such as stories by the band Sound Horizon), novels, and objects from cyberspace or the real world that are unique and dramatic (especially if they have or can be given an anthropomorphic form).

These circulation-enhancing socks earned The Best rating from the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute because they provided superior compression and moisture wicking. A testing laboratory specializing in textiles evaluated the socks for compression and moisture wicking capabilities. The Best model demonstrated the best compression difference of 30% tighter around the ankle than the calf—far superior to other socks with only 1% and 5% compression difference. The 10-20 mmHg compression improves blood circulation, reduces lactic acid build up, and aids muscle recovery. The Best model wicked moisture 68 mm, 68% better than other models and more than 7X greater wicking power than other socks. The socks' superior comfort is provided by woven supports in the ankles and arches and additional padding in the heels, toes, and balls of the feet. Made from a blend of nylon and spandex. Imported. White or Black. Shoe sizes S (Men's 3-5 1/2; Women's 5-7), M (Men's 6-8 1/2; Women's 8-10 1/2), L (Men's 9-11 1/2; Women's 11-12 1/2), XL (Men's 12-14).

|This article is written from a
Real World perspective.
|Anis Cheurfa
|Date of birth
|November 09,1987
Anis Cheurfa is a stuntman, actor, and tricker. He portrayed Rinzler in TRON: Legacy.
Cheurfa moved from Paris, France, to Los Angeles to be close to his girlfriend and to work on his unique style of martial arts, known as "tricking," which he describes a combination of "some of the basic martial arts -- taekwondo mostly because it's a lot of kicking -- [and] gymnastics, capoeira, some break-dancing motion." He stated that his role in TRON: Legacy came about when Joseph Kosinski came to his gym ask for martial artists to work with the identity discs, and chose him to portray Rinzler because he had "the perfect height and athleticism."
Cheurfa was a stuntman in The Hunger Games and portrayed Achilles in The LXD (The Legion of Extraordinary Dancers). In 2006, he broke the world record for eighteen corkspins in a row in under a minute.

You had dual boot: mint and BT...So far so good..
Now you want to use BT as your main OS?..Is that correct?
Did you delete the 2 paritions or still have dual boot?
You could have done the next in case you still have dual-boot:
1. Recover the BT5 grub (use any debian based or Ubuntu live dvd) and it will be your main OS.
2. Delete the Mint paritition.
3. Run os-prober and update-grub when in BT5.
4. Reboot.
If you deleted both partitions, I suggest you use a live DVD to install BT5, but record the dvd at the slowest speed possible.
If you want to use a USB live, read wiki to make a usb live. I use the Universal USB Installer (pendrivelinux.com) and it is quite easy.

Couple of things:
Not sure why it wouldn't work on Windows 7 for you, are you selecting an x64 based payload if your using a x64 based OS? I have it running on mine without a hitch...
In the instance of your website, you shouldn't need to bother with ARP or SSLStrip, all SET does is bind to '' on all interfaces, you can force it to bind to a specific IP, try editing the config/set_config and turn AUTO_DETECT=ON to AUTO_DETECT=OFF and when SET loads, try configuring your interface manually, I've seen that be an issue sometimes..
SENDMAIL is only used when spoofing source addresses when sending emails, if your integrating into GMAIL, I've seen that STARTTLS error before, are you running the latest version of SET? If so, I must have no fixed it, some gmail smtp servers require you to use STARTTLS to enable secure transport, others don't and won't accept it, its been a weird quirk to work with on gmail.. Let me know and I'll try to fix.
In the instance of sending to GMAIL, a sendmail attack won't work, make sure the config/set_config SENDMAIL=OFF is turned on, GMAIL does reverse lookups, so spoofing your source email address won't work properly.
Hope that helps.

New Jack The Giant Slayer Trailer
Prepare for a giant adventure
Wow… It hardly seems possible that it's nearly been a year since the last Jack The Giant Slayer trailer. Back then, it was called Jack The Giant *Killer* and set to arrive in June of this year. Take a look at some new footage in the promo above, or thunder over to Apple's kingdom to see it in true HD.
For this latest trailer, we get more details on the storyline, including how young farmhand Jack (Nicholas Hoult) meets the brave princess Isabelle (Eleanor Tomlinson) and together they get mixed up in a big giant adventure(literally, since it involves giants).
The real villain here is – spoiler alert from the trailer – Stanley Tucci's Lord Roderick, who is manipulating things from behind the scenes and manufactures Isabelle's abduction so as to prompt a rescue mission by Jack and knight Elmont (Ewan McGregor), which in turn sparks an invasion of the human world by the big fellas.
Director Bryan Singer has assembled a cast that includes Ian McShane, Warwick Davis, Eddie Marsan, Ewen Bremner and Bill Nighy. And, on narrator duties (for the trailer and likely the movie), Ian McKellen.
With more of the VFX work complete this time, we get a broader sense of the scope, and Singer's definitely going for epic fantasy. Can it compete in a Lord Of The Rings/Hobbit world? We'll find out on March 22 when it stomps into UK cinemas.

Attorney General Lockyer Issues Statement on the Arson Attacks on Sacramento Area Synagogues
(Sacramento)-- Attorney General Bill Lockyer today issued the following statement regarding the apparent arson of three Sacramento-area synagogues this morning:
"This morning's cowardly arson attacks on three sacred places of worship represents despicable hate violence. The individuals who committed these criminal acts must be brought to justice swiftly. My heart goes out to the members of the Jewish community, and the people of Sacramento, who have all been victimized by this morning's arson attacks. I have directed my law enforcement division to provide all necessary assistance to federal and local law enforcement agencies in this hate crime investigation."

With the holidays right around the corner, you are going to want to bookmark this recipe because it is perfect for a potluck party or family dinner . . . and it's so easy! You can't mess it up! 🙂 This salad is one of my favorites because it comes together in a matter of minutes and tastes amazing. And even though berries aren't in season right now, you can use frozen berries and it's delicious.
Mixed Berry Parfait Salad
2 containers (6 oz each) mixed berry yogurt (or your favorite fruity flavor)
1 box (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding
1 container (16 oz) whipped topping (such as Cool-Whip)
16 oz of your favorite berries (I used a bag of frozen raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries)
Dump the yogurt and the dry powdered pudding mix into a bowl and mix well (just ignore the directions on the pudding box- you just need the powder to make this salad), until the little "lumps" are practically gone. Fold in your whipped topping and fruit and gently mix until all combined. Serve immediately (or keep in fridge until serving). I suggest making this no earlier than the day you plan on serving it.

WB Games Montréal is beavering away on Batman: Arkham Origins, the prequel to Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City – and now it's taken the wraps off the first trailer for the game.
Batman: Arkham Origins pits the Dark Knight against a succession of assassins hired by the villainous Black Mask – on Christmas Eve, no less – with the trailer showcasing a confrontation between Batman and Deathstroke.
The game's played out on a map that's around twice the size of the playable area from Batman: Arkham City, adding a new southern island to the Arkham City map – which, this being a prequel, isn't closed off as it was in the previous game.
So, is Batman: Arkham Origins set to be a Christmas cracker or a disappointing pair of socks? You'll have to wait until the game's release on October 25th to find out – it'll be available for PC, PS3, Xbox 360 and Wii U.

To install BT5 side by side, you need to partition your Hard Disk, if you have only one Partition, shrink it with the built in windows disk utility, and create a new partition to install BT5.
As you seems to new to Linux/Backtrack and partitioning, i will recommend you to boot from the DVD or use a USB Disk to run BT5 for now, and learn the basics before going with a full hard disk install. Or else run in a virtual machine (Virtualbox is free).

For some reason this code generates a fatal PHP error.[05-Sep-2012 18:21:46] PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function add_global_groups() on a non-object in /home/evenybiz/public_html/blog/wp-includes/cache.php on line 192
I think that crawltrack may have a problem in its code which is generating the error when it receives a code injection.
To answer to your first message, as it's write, for attack giving 404 errors, details are not collected.
For your second message, the error message is clearly speaking about a WordPress file, why did you think that CrawlTrack as something to do with it?

Young people are using the Internet more than ever and most have Internet access from home. For many children, the Internet isn't simply a convenient way to research or a fun afterschool activity - it's a big part of their social life. Emailing and chatting with friends are children's most common online activities, after studying and playing games. But like many other social situations, some kids bully other kids online.
Cyberbullying is similar to other types of bullying, except it takes place online and through text messages sent to cell phones. Cyberbullies can be classmates, online acquaintances, and even anonymous users, but most often they do know their victims.
Both boys and girls sometimes bully online and just as in face-to-face bullying, tend to do so in different ways. Boys more commonly bully by sending messages of a sexual nature or by threatening to fight or hurt someone. Girls more often bully by spreading rumors and by sending messages that make fun of someone or exclude others. They also tell secrets.
Victims of cyberbullying may experience many of the same effects as children who are bullied in person, such as a drop in grades, low self-esteem, a change in interests, or depression. However cyberbullying can seem more extreme to its victims because of several factors:
Cyberbullying can be a complicated issue, especially for adults who are not as familiar with using the Internet, instant messenger, or chat rooms as kids. But like more typical forms of bullying, it can be prevented when kids know how to protect themselves and parents are available to help.
Taunting and teasing is not often criminal, but can escalate to that level. The harassment should be brought to the attention of the police if it involves any of the following:
If the acts are clearly criminal, you should save the evidence to the best of your ability. Do not erase text messages or e-mails. It may be possible to draft a warrant in order to obtain subscriber information and confirm the identity of the person responsible.

description: Jan. 3, 2014—See our ancient ancestors come to life through paleoartist John Gurche's realistic human likenesses for the Smithsonian's Hall of Human Origins. "The human story is really nothing short of the story of a little corner of the universe becoming aware of itself," says Gurche.

transcript:
I can function as a portal to take you to a variety of places.
But, in the case of the art that I do, it usually has something to do with taking you back in time to look at these early ancestors.
Lacking a time machine which I dearly wish I had, I wanted these paintings and sculpture to be able to function as that kind of portal and to take people to a different time, and have them, for a moment, just be able to imagine this creature alive.
If you’re curious at all about what it means to be human, then you’ve got to be curious about how it got to be that way.
I think it’s inconceivable, almost, to not be curious about what we are exactly. What kind of phenomena do we represent?
Human evolution as it turns out, is not a matter of everything we think of as humans, slowly evolving in tandem, that here we are: ta-da! Modern Humans?
It’s more of a mosaic affair, with some things really evolving very early and some things very late. So, if you look at a particular ancestor in the lineup, one ancestor will have a different adaptive story, a different piece of the human puzzle that it added, let’s say, than a later ancestor.
And of course, their story is our story.
It’s one thing to study the bones of these creatures and be able to make inferences about how they lived. But it takes you to a completely further place to actually build a face, and have something that looks like a real living, breathing being to represent these things. And I think it helps people to go all the way there in thinking of them as living beings.
Human imagination is really part of our creativity and as a species, we became very adept at imagining Plan B and Plan C. So, our options are not constrained to just one path that may fail. So, that creativity arose as a survival mechanism, I think and only late in human history, did it start blossoming in forms like art and music.
The evolution of humans, the arrival of humans on the planet emerges as a really unique and fantastic event. And the human story is really nothing short of the story of a little corner of the universe becoming aware of itself.

Proving it
Your support gives people around the world a voice and a belief that tomorrow may be a brighter day. That hope comes from you. Together, we are making a difference.
Proving it
Mum Beatrice smiles while holding her little baby Sipha in Sange, Democratic Republic of Congo. It's acclaimed photographer Rankin's second visit to this town, and he's on a mission to capture images of love in a land torn by conflict.
Beyond the studio backdrop is a country which is one of the toughest places on earth to call home. Since 1998, five million people have died as a result of conflict here, most by the malnutrition and disease it has caused.
The scale of suffering here is immense. Hundreds of thousands of homes have been destroyed. Rape is widespread. Amid the unspeakable violence, there is true kindness. Beatrice is among the 10 people taken in by Sange resident Annie (45). "I accepted them because I think it is good to help other people," Annie explains. "It is our friends; tomorrow it could be us." It's a story repeated thousands of times across DRC, a place where most people live in extreme poverty, yet it is extreme generosity that shines through.
Despite difficulties at home, our supporters across the island of Ireland share this incredible spirit of generosity. Your support helped us to provide vital water and sanitation in Sange, just one of many places touched by your kindness. Click below to meet just a few of the millions of people whose lives you're changing for the better.
No matter where in the world, our approach is always the same – working with people and for people to build a better future. From Afghanistan to Zambia, we're there
From Morocco to South Africa, Gambia to Somalia, we work across Africa helping communities to tackle the root causes of poverty and injustice.
All across Asia, we are building partnerships with local organisations to help communities build a brighter future for themselves.
From life-saving emergency responses to life-changing development projects and life-enhancing campaigning, we help communities to combat poverty in three powerful ways. See what your support has made possible.

Rated 1 out of 5 by ellanaveva from JUNK - ruins food JUNK -- These pans are are complete junk. They ruin food, are impossible to clean, and in general quite depressing since they are not by any means inexpensive.Date published: 2014-06-11Rated 5 out of 5 by corpkid from 4 months with these and I LOVE THEM! There is certainly a learning curve when upgrading to this type of cookware (e.g. you need to oil/grease/butter almost everything, and the heat you used to use is too high). Once I got past that learning curve, everything comes out wonderful and no sticking at all! I am dealing with a ceramic cook top in my new place and my old cheapo non-stick cookware just didn't cook "right." Making latkes was almost impossible without basically deep-frying them (yuck). These however, cook perfect and evenly. Worth every penny! A few tips: 1) Use oil or butter to keep from sticking. 2) They can go into the oven no problem, but the handles will get hot so be careful! 3) If something does stick and it looks hard to clean, just deglaze with water - best trick ever! 4) BARTENDERS FRIEND for polishing them up, and they look like new! 5) Hand wash them or they get spots (see tip 4). 6) I'm about to upgrade to an Induction cook top to deal with the lack of gas, and these pans are induction compatible.Date published: 2012-09-29Rated 5 out of 5 by christinafromCT from Good product, if used right, food will not stick! These stainless steel pans deliver....for those who state that their food sticks, there may be a few things wrong with use or cleaning....even if you follow the directions on care, you should oil the pans every so often and it can't hurt to buy Bartenders Friend or other products that will release "unseen" residue or other chemical bindings. Also, do not add butter or oil right away....wait for the pan to get hot first, then add your butter, oil or egg, etc. That should solve the problem. I cook for functions, my family and we entertain regularly....I NEVER have a problem if cooking properly....these pans may be a bit "more complex" for very novice cooks....perhaps try the Swiss Diamond non stick pans (they are also great) and you can be a bit more basic with your kitchen skills and still not have food stick to your pans with those at all. I feel bad that people may be blaming the pans when it is not their fault. lolDate published: 2012-08-03Rated 3 out of 5 by Dama3j from Stick and noteasy to clean Sticky for two recipes: tortilla espanola and steam rice. It has been almost impossible to make a tortilla espanola. I have to use my old saucepan to make it.Date published: 2012-04-18

Chris Brown and Kanye West are topping a list of the worst celebrity role models. According to a survey of 2,407 parents conducted by CouponCodes4U.com, 71% of parents believe Brown is the worst male celebrity example for their children.
The embattled singer barely beat out rapper Kanye West, who garnered 67% of the vote. Lil Wayne, Jay-Z and Tiger Woods also managed to land in the top ten worst role models. Most parents cited the male celebrity's "arrogance" as reason for putting them on the list.

NEW YORK CITY -- Hostess Brands and one of its biggest unions agreed to mediation in a last-ditch effort to keep the bankrupt maker of Twinkies and Wonder Bread from closing.
At the urging of a bankruptcy judge, Hostess Brands and the Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers Union, which represents 5,600 Hostess workers, are meeting with a mediator today in a final bid to find a middle ground in their long-standing labor dispute.
If the two sides come to terms, the mediation could prevent the liquidation of the 82-year-old company and save 18,500 jobs. If not, Hostess will likely auction off its iconic brands, which include Twinkies, Wonder Bread and Ding Dongs.
Hostess announced on Nov. 16 that it was planning to go out of business, blaming a week-long nationwide strike by the bakery union that crippled production at its factories, putting an unbearable burden on the already struggling company. | SEE STORY
Retailers from coast to coast reported that customers were emptying shelves, buying up what might be the last boxes of the iconic Twinkies snack cakes.

From the moment I heard about this job, I've been hearing about Chiefland's Jamantye Thompson.
To check out the paper, I went where anybody else would look first, chieflandcitizen.com.
"Jumpin' Jamantye" was the first headline to catch my eye. Then another on Thompson, and another, and another. Perusing printed archives after getting the gig, and the senior tailback's pictures were plastered across the pages.
Hence, I figured this Jamantye to be as cocky as others with extra exposure.
No sir.

The Division of Neurogenetics coordinates diagnostic testing, treatment, and ongoing care for children and adolescents with neurogenetic conditions, and ensures your child has access to all of the necessary specialists.
We are associated with the Division of Neurology, one of the largest teams in the country for comprehensive care of families and children affected by pediatric neurology conditions.
What sets Children's National apart is our commitment to the entire family. The Neurogenetics Program surrounds patients and families with a complete care team made up of:
Physicians refer patients to the Neurogenetics Program for advanced diagnostic testing and care. Many neurogenetic conditions are rare and the program's pediatric specialists have the expertise to recognize and accurately diagnose these conditions in children.
As a way to help patients and their families cope with illness, we also coordinate individual and family support groups throughout the greater Baltimore/Washington, DC, region.
A neurogenetic condition is caused by incomplete or compromised genetic coding at the cellular level. It may be passed on from a parent or may occur spontaneously, meaning no family member has had the condition before. Neurogenetic conditions can present in a variety of ways including developmental delay, seizures, abnormal muscle tone or movements, or other effects on the nervous system. Conditions commonly treated through the program include:
We provide a healthcare experience designed with kids in mind, and delivers confidence and assurance when parents need it most.
Have a question about a specific disease or condition or treatments or services we offer?
We see children from around the Washington, DC, area, nation, and world who need the specialized expertise and child-focused care we offer.
Our providers represent medical and surgical specialties, family practice, and general pediatrics.
Pediatric specialists work closely to ensure an integrated approach to caring for each child and family.
