Ira...for your fixtures...
...the green or ground wire goes to the silver bus bar on the far left...

...the white or neutral wire goes to the silver bar to its immediate right...

...the black or hot wire goes on the far right of the breaker where the red wires are attached(the red wires power the LED indicator lights)...

...for your source...
...on the main breaker with the black wire jumping to the copper colored bus bar...the main black wire from your source should go to a screw on the left side of that MAIN BREAKER(second breaker)

...the white wire from your source should goto a screw on the left of the top main breaker

...the ground or green wire from your source should goto the silver bus bar on the far left

Okay, okay, I THINK I got it Jack:

So all of my white/neutral line wires go to the same SCREW? And the same for the ground wires?

WOW now ya'll have me confused. :?
Ya'll forgot to mention to screw it good, as loose screws make sparks.
Ira I think I would have an electrician look at it before you plugged it in. :SG

Ira... I would be worried...very worried.

Pull the jumper this...wire the neutral that...the green goes to black, but if that doesn't work hook it up to the red...

Time for Doug to do another limerick!

Jimmy Buffet said it best in the song "Why don't we get drunk and screw"

I really do appreciate the fact you’re sittin’ here
Your voice sounds so wonderful
But yer face don’t look too clear
So bar maid bring a pitcher, another round o’ brew
Honey, why don’t we get drunk and screw

Chorus:
Why don’t we get drunk and screw
I just bought a water bed, it’s filled up for me and you
They say you are a snuff queen
Honey I don’t think that’s true
So, why don’t we get drunk and screw

-- spoken: pick it coral reefers, here we go...

(swing instrumental)

Chorus:
Why don’t we get drunk and screw
I just bought a waterbed it’s filled up for me and you
They say you are a snuff queen
Honey I don’t think that’s true
So why don’t we get drunk and screw
Yeah, now baby I say, (lord!)
Why don’t we get drunk and screw
