Hi everyone.
We've provided a lot of help content and sample PKTs on the Subassembly Composer wiki. We hope that you will add your own knowledge to it so that other users can learn from your expertise.
One of the ways you can share your expertise is by sharing subassemblies that you've created. We want to create a section of the wiki that will make it easy to upload your PKT files, as well as find what other users have done. The first way you can help is by helping me determine where samples should go and how we can make it easy to find them.
Where would you expect to find and upload samples?
How would you expect to navigate through samples? (If categories, what would they be called?)
I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
I would expect to look for them under a child page of "Autodesk Subassembly Composer" at the end of the list.
Because different users are going to be looking for different pkt files I would recommend providing them in a Sortable Table with columns of the different classification types. I don't think you want too many columns but ones that I think would be beneficial are:
Description (not sortable?)
Type (Full Assembly, Subassembly) or Complexity (Complex, Simple)
Category (Road, Curb/Barrier, Retaining Walls, Daylight, Other)
Components (Decision, Switches, etc.... Ideally it would be awesome if this could then be pulled/linked somehow to the pages that talk about Decision, Switches, etc. This would need to be some sort of comma delineated list.)
Creator (so that people can find multiple pkt files by the same person)
Number of downloads? (popularity?)
Date of Creation (to be able to find new files)
I think the other important thing would be to provide limited choices for uploading users to pick from so that there is uniformity when sorting (ex. Road vs. Roads)
Thanks for the suggestions, Kati!
Was it your intention to upload the pkt files or to upload a zip file with the atc, xml data for Civil 3D? When I tried to download the pkt files, I recieved a zip with all files needed for Civil 3D and not the pkt files for SAC. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi Jay,
I believe PKTs are converted to ZIP when you download them. If you change the file extension from .ZIP to .PKT, you can open them in Subassembly Composer. I updated the Sample PKT Files help topic to reflect this.
I hope this helps.
TIm is right, i downloaded a file as a zip, changed the extension to .pkt and it worked within the SA Composer. Seems like people are hoarding whatever they develop to keep it proprietary. Why couldn't Autodesk themselves offer up some sort of .pkt library. If you really want this thing to catch on maybe Autodesk should start handing out some samples and let people roll with this?
Early on it seems as though these .pkt files should be saved as separate elements within the intention to combine multiple elements into one .pkt file (SA). The main reason for the SAC is to solve the decisions that you'll need your assembly to process, either that or some of the stock SAs need these decisions built into them, but also saved as a PKT file so people can take them and edit them accordingly.
Is there a way to get the Civil 3D stock Subassemblies into a pkt file without doing it manually? I not, why not?
"Is there a way to get the Civil 3D stock Subassemblies into a pkt file without doing it manually? I not, why not?"
The original stock Civil 3D subassemblies are written in a completely different code than the SAC files. Unfortunately there is no magic conversation process, it would all have to be done manually by a human. One can only hope that in the future more sample .pkt (SAC) subassembly files will be provided that are similar to the stock subassemblies.
Thanks for the information... Why couldn't Autodesk go with something that's universal and open the door to limitless Subassemblies? Someone employed / payed by Autodesk should gladly take this on for the benefit of Civil 3D marketing and sales. Once the users that use Civil 3D / Other software know they have a limitless solution Civil 3D design paramaters the "other" software packages will fade into the night.
Good idea,
Here is mine. Who is next?? Man-up people.

I like this brush for blending out color (crease) and for applying a light wash of color on the lid. The bristles are super soft and I've experienced little to no fall-out. Very happy w/ this brush. It's one of the first ones I've purchased from them.
This is an excellent makeup brush. I've been looking for this sort of very pointed blender brush for a while and had my heart set on one from Laura Mercier or the limited edition one from Mac very similar to a 244 except shaped like this one. I understand that Louise Young also makes one in this shape. Anyhow, I am extremely satisfied with this purchase. I had read the reviews on the site and many reviewers stated that they received a brush that was not near as pointed as the one in the picture. I'm not sure about that but the one I got is very pointed just like the photograph but perhaps not as thick. This brush is perfect for depositing color right into the socket line, creating a blended line in the crease. The shape of it allows the tip to fit right into the crease. You only have to move the brush back and forth since the brush just finds and stays in the socket. It is great if you want a bit more definition the the crease or for creating a slightly less dramatic cut crease look. The hair is soft and full and none has shed since I washed it twice now. The only thing about this brush is the look of it around the ferrel area, which is not pressed in as pristinely as a Mac brush is. Other than that, functionality wise, it is excellent and not just because of its low cost.
I love this brush. It's my HG blending brush.
It's very soft and round and I love to apply eye shadow on my crease with it. I love how softly it applies even the darker colors. I've had problems of applying the darker crease colors with other blending brushes or crease brushes, because they're usually much more dense and they seem to add too much color at once and it tends to get streaky. Darker matte shades are really difficult to work with and this blending brush does it very well.
It feels like silky soft on my eye lids, it doesn't shed and it's cheap.
Many people probably think it's too flimsy, but I don't think so. It's just perfectly soft.
It's round, not flat like some other blending brushes, so it also makes working with it very easy.
I'll be buying several more of these brushes, for sure.
I bought this brush from coastal scents as i read the reviews and its a must have brush for blending and i have to agree i use it mostly for doing the "smokey eye" and i have sensitive eyes and this brush blends out colors very nicely doesnt shed or feels prickly on the skin great brush for beginners or people on a budget

Because I live in Puerto Rico and my guild is suggesting I buy one, but the blizzard store doesn't ship here.

From a gardener who's grown it: 'I was given some gloriosa tubers two years ago. They die down in Montgomery, AL in the winter and new plants pop up next spring. And pop they do! They seem to pop up a couple of inches the first night and grow quickly after that. I have small trellises and plant stakes to help them stand and they are so unique as the blooms develop. I transplanted one into a pot and brought it in when weather turned cold. I had gloriosa blooms in my dining room window for our Thanksgiving family dinner.'. ....from a subscriber to DavesGarden.com, gardening in Montgomery, AL

Comments about Gloriosa Lily:
I planted the tubers of the Gloriosa lily in a pot, so that they could be transplanted once they started to grow. They did not grow. No shoots, no growth, just stayed the same as when they came through the mail.

I had blooms on this lily for months. The bloom is unique in shape and changes color as it ages.
Didn't grow

Out of the fifteen tubers only one grew, however it died before blooming. Quite expensive.
Blooms so beautiful, but so short-lived
By Foxshadow
from Minneapolis, MN
A friend of mine as these in her garden and I have always loved their delicate beauty. Once they start blooming, one has to check them twice a day, the flowers disappear so fast! I love them anyway. I used them in a grouping in my front yard, They kind of got lost with all the other flowers. I think next time I will plant them more toward the edge, though still in a group, so that it will be easier for me to catch them when they bloom!

This flower went to the fair and took best of show.A real head turner, still showing great after 3 days of being cut, it looks even better.
Very unique
By THIRTYSIXRED
from BLOOMFIELD CT
Most people have never seen these so I got some really nice comments. Flowers are just as they are pictured on the web site. Takes a while to start growing, but once they get going...its off to the races.The flowers start out looking like they won't get to be red...as the flower itself "ages" you will find the yellow portion turns red and you have a full red flame. This photo shows the oldest of the flowers (the one that bloomed 1st) with the yellow lower portion starting to turn red.

Gloriosa Lily
By Green Nails
from Houston, TX
MY Gloriosa Lily are doing really well this year, got lots of beautiful flowers. I attached some photos so you can see how gorgeous they are.
exotic flower worth trying
from Houston, Texas
I just love this flower from the first time I came across its picture online, with vivid color and all the petals going upwards, it looks like a small bunch of dancing flame, no wander it was called fire lily also. When see the description 15-20cm bulb, I was expecting something like a giant onion. When got my package I was quite surprised to find some bulbs more carrot than onion. Those "carrots" grow very rapidly, send out long shoots, it is very cute to see they actually use the tip of leaves to grab the trellis, and oh, the flower, once they begin to bloom, it will make your neighbor wondering what are those exotic looking flowers. Some things to look out:1. During the second year, it sends out very long (more than 12 inch) shoots in nearby places, before the leaves appear, I couldn't tell what are they and pulled out some.2. It didn't branching much, so don't expect it will cover the whole trellis3. It is very brittle, try to avoid touch them, they will break!Overall, I highly recommend glorisa lily to fellow gardeners, something definitely worth trying.

We just added our cable's digital package to our menu after getting our new home theater up and running. I picked up an extra digital box for an upstairs TV so we can get the extra channels there too. Anyway, we've discovered we really like the digital music channels, and I was wondering if I can split the audio from the cable box and have sound running to my stereo system too (in addition to the TV)? If so, what cables, etc., will I need.
Follow-Up Postings:
Sure. Just use the analog output (red/white) for the stereo feed, and the digital output for the Home Theater feed. You'll want to go to the set up menu, set the output to variable, and then ramp the cable box volume all the way up. |
Hmmmm.....the digital cable box they gave me for our old analog TV doesn't have digital output, only one set of RCA-type (red/white). Can this be split to 2 sources? If so, what type of splitter? I can't seem to find one (maybe I'm not sure at what I'm searching for) that would enable this. Thank you. |
I think I just figured it out???.....I'll need 2 "Y" splitters, one for the red line and one for the yellow line from which I'll run one from each to the components (TV and stereo). Am I on the right track? Thanks |
Yes, Tracy, you have indeed figured it out! I use splitter cables all over the place (limited to one split per signal line), for splitting the audio to/from my computer, TV, etc., and most all of those devices put out a standard "line level" signal that suffers minimally from being distributed somewhat. (Don't try using those splitters to combine signals, however, as results may be unpredictable...) |

Female cops 'must learn' basics of special laws for kids, women
-A A +ASaturday, May 19, 2012
Norren M. Mangmang, UP Mass Comm intern
SENIOR Supt. Louie Oppus emphasized the importance of policewomen having basic knowledge on specialize laws for the protection of women and children.
Oppus, Police Regional Office (PRO) 7 deputy director for operations, urged the 44 graduates of the 10-day specialized course training for the Women and Children Protection Desk (WCPD) to read the law so they can implement it properly.
During the final activity of the training yesterday at the Department of Education in Banilad, Cebu City, Oppus further expressed pride that police stations down to the municipal level in the country can now solve problems and issues concerning women and children.
Chyrel Boniao, WCPD course coordinator, said all the special laws relating to women and children's concerns are taught in the course.
The training is important to equip and update the policewomen about the laws, as well as to enhance their skills in interviewing women and children victims, she said.
It is the region's third time to conduct the specialized course since it started last year.
Among the 44 students of the course, PO2 Anna Liza Aguilar, 26, of Sibulan Police Station in Negros Oriental had the highest overall proficiency rating in the class.
Aguilar, who has been a policewoman for almost five years, said the training not only gave her more knowledge about the rights and the laws protecting women and children, it also has made her a better person and policewoman.
She also said the training entails the responsibility "to impart and apply to the real world" what they've learned.
Oppus reminded the graduates to use what they have learned in the course and to do their jobs well.
"What you have learned today will be implemented in the field," he said.
Audie Villacin, acting chief of the Regional Investigation and Detective Management Division, said most crimes and abuses happen within the house and family of the victims.
He encouraged policewomen to use their authority and knowledge to prevent such incidents from happening again.

rc..now I have to know. Exactly what is the image? I gather that it's a spider web with droplets of water, but help me get my bearings. :) Great image! Pam |
Thanks guys. And, Pam, it was a little spider web suspended in the corner of my front patio. So, brick on two sides, with a triangular web. Most of the shots are from slightly below the bottom of the web so you can see the water drops suspended. The second above is from the top, looking down. |
Now I see. :) Such detail..really fun. Thank you. |
Those are HEAVY drops! Just shows you the strength of spider silk. |
Those silk strands really are amazing. Stronger than steel for the same size, I hear. |

'Glee' Final Season Spoilers: Which Major Character is Moving to Russia?!
Earlier today, word broke of 'Glee''s potential plans to move the series to New York full-time in time for the final season, though that idea was only one of several under consideration. Far crazier than that however, is another apparent possibility that will see a major character relocating to Russia altogether!
'Glee' Season 6 To Officially End the Series, Finale to Honor Cory Monteith
While Cory Monteith's death forever altered the course of 'Glee,' fans were nonetheless to learn this past summer that FOX had intended to end the series altogether following the sixth season. At the time, it was thought that the network would at least wait until 2014 to decide for sure, but series creator Ryan Murphy confirms that 'Glee' season 6 will end the series, its finale endgame markedly different after Monteith's tragic passing.
'Glee' Season 5 Premiere Pushed Back a Week Because of Cory Monteith's Death
With the passing of Cory Monteith, there was word that 'Glee' might be delayed a month to figure out how to deal with the character's absence, and how to work with the two scripts that were already written for Season 5. Originally scheduled to begin showing on September 19, the Season 5 premiere has been pushed back a week to September 26.
'Glee' Donating $1 Million to School Arts Programs
If you feel like those wacky 'Glee' kids are everywhere lately, you aren't alone — heck, even Cory Monteith supposedly thinks they need to take it down a notch. But in between all that singing, dancing and carrying on, the show is spreading an important pro-arts message, and the latest 'Glee' project is backing it up with some serious cash.
The 'Glee' Give a Note Campaign, coordinated through Twentieth Century Fox, the National Association for Music Education (NAfME), and the show, is looking to raise $1 million for art programs at schools across the country.

Catalog of Red Stars - First edition, May 2004
- by A. Ahad Compiled: circa late 1980s, posted: May 5th, 2004 (with later revisions) Copyright © 2004-2012 Abdul Ahad. All rights reserved. The night sky's reddest stars ranked in diminishing order of redness (colour index):
Background to my Catalog of Red Stars Since my earliest childhood days of stargazing, noticing the small variations in star colours, both intrinsically from one star to the next, as well as the jewel-like reds, greens and violets produced by atmospheric scintillation, has always been a top feature in my observing. I originally compiled about half of the above list of exceptionally red stars back in the late 1980s from a number of different sources, notably the "Yale Bright Star Catalog" entries listed in the Astronomical Almanac. The criteria for selecting entries in my red stars catalog are:-
Definition of Colour Index (B-V) Star colours are measured using a photometric system of 'colour index', denoted B-V. The blue magnitude, B, is the brightness of a star as observed photoelectrically through a blue filter. The visual magnitude, V, is its brightness measured at visual wavelengths of light, which is of course the part of the electromagnetic spectrum to which our eyes are most sensitive. The difference B-V is therefore a measure of the colour of a star. There is a close relationship between B-V and the spectral type, but some of the stars are reddened by interstellar dust. The probable error of a value of B-V is thought to be 0.02 mag at most. Stars that have a higher positive colour index value are redder, whereas those that have a lower negative B-V are bluer in their apparent hue. NOTE: Colour indices stated above for each star were derived from their B and V magnitudes. In the case of carbon stars, the actual shade of colour will vary in line with variations in the star's intrinsic brightness. It is generally accepted that a carbon star will appear marginally redder when it is at the faintest end of its cycle, though this type of colour variations are not observed in the red supergiants. Likewise, the indicated magnitude range for both carbon stars and pulsating red supergiants is somewhat variable and very approximate. These can be confirmed by consulting the AAVSO database, which is a fantastic resource pooling together ongoing observations from a global community of variable star observers. My fascinations with the "Ruby Star" (CE Tauri / 119 Tauri) The second reddest star in the entire night sky (ranked in terms of its colour index (B-V) in the Johnson UBVRI photometric system) to shine consistently at a naked eye brightness well above the 5th magnitude is the pulsating red supergiant CE Tauri or 119 Tauri. Only Mu Cephei (the "Garnet Star") is slightly redder in that brightness range, as first acknowledged by William Herschel back in the 18th century. I first spotted this star totally inadvertently during a casual binocular sweep back in April 2004, when I instantly took a serious liking to its exceptionally ruby red colour. I then carried out an extensive search of all the online sources and found no prior references to say anyone else had either noted its exceptional gemstone-like colour or made any remarks, comparisons or colour rankings of this relatively *bright* star to Mu Cephei. It never featured in a single red star listing anywhere, and I became the FIRST to identify CE Tauri as the *second* reddest star in the entire night sky to shine consistently at a naked eye brightness well above the 5th magnitude. Hence my decision to call this the "Ruby Star" as discussed here :) :) ! Above: The night sky's reddest stars plotted on apparent magnitude vs colour index - click to see a larger image. [Abdul Ahad] [Above image credit: © T. Credner & S. Kohle, AlltheSky.com] The Bluest Stars in the Sky By definition, if the reddest stars in the night sky represent the heaven's sparkling garnets and rubies, then the bluest stars - on the opposite end of the spectrum - must represent the night sky's sapphires. The very hot, bluish O-class star Zeta Puppis in the southern skies has one of the highest negative colour indices (B-V) at -0.28 and should appear attractively blue in the eyepiece. Visible in the northern hemisphere, the 4th magnitude variable star S Monocerotis is amongst the bluest, with a color index of -0.25. The brightest of all the blue stars in the night sky is Spica, with a colour index of -0.23. A good look at Spica through an instrument of any aperture never fails to make a totally mesmerising experience on spring evenings.

"Adorable card! Perfect for my son's Halloween themed 7th birthday party! Quality work! Delivery was also speedy! Thank you Tiny Prints!"
"The colors are all bold. No colors are faint. Loved how I could change colors, fonts and sizes of the text. The Quality of the card and the envelopes were amazing."
"and more! I really appreciated the design team's ability to review my card prior to sending it to print. I had concerns regarding the font size on the front and text that I wanted added to the back. My requests were completed quickly and executed perfectly, despite my need for a rush turn-around! If doing again, I would consider trying the glossy paper just for extra flair, but I have no complaints with the standard paper quality."
"These invitations looked exactly like they did online, so no surprises there! They arrived well before the date they were scheduled on, so I loved the efficiency of the whole process."
"I created a sweet 16 invitation using this card as my template. The designers at Tiny Prints worked with me to remove the original text for a quincerra and even took off some extra scrolls and curly qs because my daughter is more of an outdoorsy girl. It turned out so beautiful and we will treasure it for years to come in her scrapbook of the birthday. Thank you Tiny Prints!"

Armed Bank Robber Sentenced to 32 Years in Prison
Participated in Violent Montgomery County Bank Robbery Which Netted $80,000
Greenbelt, Maryland - U.S. District Judge Peter J. Messitte sentenced Richol Griner, age 31, to 32 years in prison, followed by three years of supervised release, after he was convicted by a federal jury on June 16, 2008 of conspiracy to commit bank robbery, bank robbery and using a firearm during a crime of violence, announced United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Rod J. Rosenstein. Judge Messitte enhanced Griner's sentence upon finding that he was a career criminal based on previous convictions for assault, resisting arrest, firearms violations and attempted escape.
On August 29, 2008, Judge Messitte sentenced co-defendant Giovanni Bell, age 45, of Silver Spring, to life in federal prison without parole under the federal "three strikes and you are out" law. Bell was convicted at the same trial of conspiracy to commit bank robbery, bank robbery, using a firearm during a crime of violence, being a felon in possession of a firearm and being a violent felon in possession of body armor. Judge Messitte also sentenced co-defendant Jude Eligwe, age 23, of Lanham, Maryland, to four years in prison, followed by three years of supervised release for conspiracy to commit bank robbery. Eligwe, a Nigerian native, is expected to be deported after serving his federal sentence.
According to evidence presented at the two week trial, the defendants conspired to rob the Commerce Bank at 350 E. Gude Drive in Rockville, where Eligwe was employed.
Witnesses testified that in the days prior to the robbery, Eligwe informed Griner about Commerce Bank's vault mechanisms. On February 19, 2007, Bell and two co-conspirators drove to Commerce Bank where Eligwe unlocked the front door of the bank so the robbers could enter. Bell and the two co-conspirators held the bank employees hostage while they waited for the vault to open. They brandished their weapons and repeatedly pistol whipped a bank employee. Griner served as a look-out during the robbery, and more than $80,000 was stolen from the bank.
The defendants remain in federal custody.
United States Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein praised the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Montgomery County Police Department for their investigative work in this case. Mr. Rosenstein thanked Assistant U.S. Attorneys Deborah Johnston and Emily Glatfelter, who are prosecuting the case.

spewey, you want my personal opinion? LOL... Yes. If you had happened to read the opening paragraph above the Hot Topics forum, you'd have seen "If you have an opinion on today's current events or other hot topics, feel free to discuss it here." Merely reporting something that's been covered on all the news sites is not discussion. This forum is about discussing topics. not merely reporting them. LOL yourself. |
I'm against it. |

I am against any of the Manson members whether on the fringe or not.. of getting out of prison. LOl.. back! I wrote LOL as I didn't want you to think I was not nice! |
Oh Spewey, it is not against board rules to post something and wait for others to make the comments. It's not the purpose of this board, either. Hot Topics is not some Twitter newsfeed. |
I've been reading with interest a series of articles on Huffington Post about Leslie van Houten, another Manson groupie. It has been very interesting, especially the details on the parole hearings. |
Spewey, all you accomplish with that is just your being mean to people. Be nice. Besides, comments always come. If they don't, threads drift away. As it should be. Esh, do they take the position that Fromme should be released? Or do you have an opinion on this? |
van Houten, you mean? These articles are written by John Waters, someone that has been talking with her for years. So far it's up to part 4 of 5. Here is the first paragraph: I have a really good friend who was convicted of killing two innocent people when she was nineteen years old on a horrible night of 1969 cult madness. Her name is Leslie Van Houten and I think you would like her as much as I do. She was one of those notorious "Manson girls" who shaved their heads, carved X's in their foreheads and laughed, joked, and sang their way through the courthouse straight to death row without the slightest trace of remorse forty years ago. Leslie is hardly a "Manson girl" today. Sixty years old, she looks back from prison on her involvement in the La Bianca murders (the night after the Tate massacre) in utter horror, shame, and guilt and takes full responsibility for her part in the crimes. I think it's time to parole her. The rest of the text is background. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Part 1

Thanks, guys, but spewey is right! I should have state my own opinion. It does say so! ;) I need to woman up! lol. I've been lurking here for months.. and just started posting a bit.. I've tried to develop a thicker skin, lol. You've gotta love spewey's name! lol. As for Leslie van Houten.. she's one of the worst of Manson's bunch, imho, and I truly hope that the D.A. McKay and the LoBianco family members continue to show up at these parole hearing and protest these killers release. Susan Atkins, Sadie, is dying of cancer.. and wanted a compassionate release and they refused her! GOOD!!! They all got the death penalty but the death penalty was overturned and their sentences commuted... so they should never be released as they should be DEAD!!! |
Thanks, guys, but spewey is right! I should have state my own opinion. It does say so! ;) Thanks, rosiegirl :) Discussions are what makes this forum interesting. |
Labrea ! Brilliant! |
Spewey, these things always get discussed, even if the OP doesn't put up an opinion, and you know it. I don't always put up a comment and you're not going to bully me into it, even though you've tried several times. Rosie, we're glad you're here. Stick around. |
Manson's followers were brainwashed and tripped out on drugs when they did these deeds. It has been 40 years since the murders and those in jail have been there all this time. Some have been paroled, some have not. Why is that? As for Leslie, all accounts indicate that she didn't actually kill anyone during the LaBianca murders - the person she was told to stab was already dead. I don't know - it's been a long time. She has been remorseful for most of that time, once she came out of the brainwashing. Are people afraid that if she is paroled she'll commit more crimes? Or that she must stay in prison forever to serve justice? |
Rosie, You had it absolutely right in your OP. The forum wording says "IF you have an opinion...." I took that to mean that one does not HAVE to have an opinion to post. That's how I define "if". The forum guidelines do NOT say "IF AND ONLY IF you have an opinion are you allowed to post here". Your original post was just fine in my book and no opinion was required - welcome aboard! I don't have any opinion about Fromme in 2009 as I have not been privileged to her prison record. |
What were young girls are now becoming old women aren't they. Isn't she dying of cancer? If so, she is very, terminally ill and is frankly sucking the resources from the state, maybe it's time for us to allow her to be released to die with her family members taking care of her. Because the death penalty was abandoned in California, the tax payers are responsible for every single human need that must be fulfilled. Maybe for Squeaky this is the time to step up to the "milk of human kindness" plate. Not because she necessarily deserves any feeling of compassion from the public, but because we tend to hold ourselves up to be basically decent and compassionate people who have some sense of christian charity lurking somewhere in our hearts -and after all, Christian charity means squat if it isn't applied. After all, the compassion we claim to have as a nation doesn't really mean squat if we apply it only to those we consider deserving of it - it counts when it hurts to hand it out but we do it anyway because it's the right thing to do at the time. Because we don't ask for vengence, but for justice. I think of this kind of like monetary charity, it may begin at home but it only really counts when it's handed to a total stranger that means nothing more to you personally other than a fellow member of the human race who needs help. I may remember incorrectly but I dont recall that Squeaky actually killed anyone, only attempted to kill the President? I think there is one of the manson girls who has truely rehabilited herself. However, I don't ever want to see any of them released unless they are terminally ill. Their victims are forever dead, the consequence must be that the perp's lifes must be forever in the control of the state and loss of freedom. However, they can serve out their healthy lives with some sense of direction and purpose and most of the women appear to have done so. One thing to consider - we let murderers go all the time. One of these days, the "pick and choose" method we use is going to be successfully challeged. I suspect that many well known murderers are still in prison after all these years are still there ONLY because they became well known - not for any actual reason for serving justice, but only because of the public outcry and rage that would result if they were released. I believe Sirhan Sirhan would have been released decades ago had he shot an unknown, innocent citizen. That's how I feel about it anyway! |

Manson and his followers cooked their brains gleefully on mixtures of drugs that could have killed many of us. We are not talking about a little pot to mellow out. To top that off many of them were definitely twisted to begin with or were happy to give themselves up to the whims of a madman. By the time the Tate murders occurred there had been others that have been documented but the bodies never found. The Spahn Ranch was desolate and rugged, a perfect place to conceal bodies if they even bothered. (according to various statements of family members) Charles "Tex" Watson was reportedly pleased to do the dirty work. One rumor circulating at the time was family members laughed at a coyote dragging part of a body through the Ranch yard. Details of the Tate/LaBianca murders can be found at Wikipedia and in Vincent Bugliosi's book "Helter Skelter". In my own opinion, the indiscriminant drug use by family members probably exacerbated already existing mental illness or brain damage or social disability. Those who might have escaped that were controlled by the ever present threat of violence from Manson or one of his true believers. The women who were involved, Tex Watson and Manson were all convicted. It was only a twist of fate, of bad timing that kept them all from execution. Squeaky Fromme wanted to be one of the killers but Charlie sent Leslie instead. Should they be released, no. I cannot conceive of letting them go. If Squeaky was not along on the murders it was only Charley's whim that prevented it. I don't think she could change. Her attempt to kill President Ford proves she was capable of murder for Charley. She is still obsessed with Charley. I think with the slightest opportunity she would kill at his word or even if she imagined his word. Sleepless |

Sleepless, I agree 100% with what you wrote. For the person who thought Sadie should be given a compassionate release... to save our state some money.. I don't see how that would come to pass. She's been in prison for 40 years. It is doubtful she has saved enough money or could afford to pay for insurance to cover the cost of her cancer care. She would still be on the dole whether in custody or out of custody. So, I say keep her.. in custody and let her die in custody. Too harsh? I don't care! I still think of the baby in Sharon Tate that they killed while she begged for mercy for her child. |
If I'm against the death penalty and for life then I must mean life. |

Is anyone using nagios to monitor that GoAnywhere is working? We are having occasional java heap space issues and I wondered how people were monitoring GoAnywhere to make sure that it is running. Currently we are looking at the port, but that doesn't go down even though the underlying program doesn't allow access.

Last night we rolled the site again, and now every Team page has two new links:
1. A link to all the organizations in that Team's area that are listed on Idealist.
This is a handy way to see what resources are already available to you and your community and, in smaller places, you can also see who's missing and invite them to join us on Idealist now. Like all searches on Idealist, you can narrow this by keyword and other fields.
2. A link to all the Connectors in your area
This will often overlap with the members of your Team, but on that page you will also see short summaries of people's profiles, and you can search through all of them by keyword.
Where are they?
Both of these new links appear on the left side of the Team page AFTER at least one discussion has been started by someone on the Team. If you are alone in your Team, you can just post a "welcome" message to the next member, and these links will then appear on the left.
If you have trouble finding or using these new tools, please don't hesitate to contact us.

I am making a hairbow for a friend and want to type the school name vertical down the ribbon. Can someone tell me how I do this. I have tried rotating the work but this is not what I need, I need the letters going down one below the other. I hope someone can advise me. thanks in advance. |

I would play around with the lettering to see if a name will rotate 90 degrees and do a trial stitch out. |
- Posted by joansews4u (My Page) on Mon, Sep 18, 06 at 1:06
Do you have an edit feature on your machine so you can combine designs & lettering? I have a Brother ULT & I am not familar with yours but I have an edit feature. I can put in one lettter or one design & I have arrows to move it around on my screen. To do what you are talking about, I have to put in one letter & "set" it & then use the arrows to move it up toward the top of my screen. Then I go back in re-edit mode & pick up the next letter, put it in & move it & keep doing that until I have all the letters. |

The Queue: Ask the beta testers {WoW}
Mar 22nd 2012 11:24PM If we're killing Garrosh because he's been corrupted by demons... I think that would be q really stupid and cliché and lame retread. Why can't he just have gone off the deep end of his own free will? If it's corruption, why not something new... maybe a Sha has possessed his soul?
The surreal concept of neutrality in Warcraft {WoW}
Mar 21st 2012 9:33PM Amen. Hit the nail on the head. They're 'correcting' Garrosh, but where is the reckoning for Sylvanas? The use of Val'kyr is probably the main reason continuing Argent neutrality is so ridiculous to me.

Mar 15th 2012 4:26PM "In Cataclysm ... there were plenty of surprises in Cataclysm, but I think the biggest shocker to me was the first chapter of Thrall: Twilight of the Aspects. I definitely was not expecting what went down, and it took me completely by surprise."
This is annoying. Cataclysm is Cataclysm. A computer game which I paid for. Other products are not Cataclysm. I don't buy the novels, even though I have to read synopses of them online to keep up with the story.
Know Your Lore: The undead, part 2 {WoW}
Mar 14th 2012 5:13PM Can we get an objective and logical discussion of undead morality, or lack thereof, in the next part, please?
I have been arguing with some strident Alliance fanboys (mostly just one, who has been put on ignore by many posters, actually) on the official Story Forum about whether or not being undead inherently means you are evil. To me the fact that some undead CHOOSE to abandon Undercity society in favor of the Argent Dawn shows that there is nothing about being undead that forces you to be an evil being.
I argue that while the condition of undeath is itself evil and certainly makes it difficult to choose a noble path, undead beings with free will are no more *inherently* evil than any other sentient being, and the trend towards 'evilness' over 'goodness' among free undead is due more to their emotional detachment from the living. In other words, they're more inherently amoral than immoral. More existentialist libertarians stuck in a tricky geopolitical position than simply evil monsters.
Also, can we get an analysis of to what extent Sylvanas is using powers of mind control on the newest Val'kyr risen 'recruits' ? (If all undead are not inherently evil, most of them certainly choose to take refuge in Sylvanas' guidance, which has become pretty blatantly evil.)

Feb 23rd 2012 7:37PM @Lemons "A faction of Draenei that hates demons with an even greater passion than Azeroth's Draenei would NEVER employ warlocks."

(My favorite idea here: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/4015343353?page=15#296 ) What does the Queue think about unorthodox race/class combos like this, Undead Paladins or something like Druids for Gnomes going forward? The ultimate demise of lore? Unbelievably awesome? Something in between? And how would you assess the success of the new combinations added in Cataclysm? Did Blizzard sell you on Tauren "paladins" and Night Elf mages or did their implementation leave much to be desired?

Joaquin Phoenix, The Master
After his almost career-endingly convincing turn as "himself," an acclaimed actor-turned-aspiring rapper, Phoenix proves his mettle once again as Freddie Quell, a WWII veteran who forges an uneasy but undeniable friendship with the leader of a new, cult-like religious movement. Phoenix' very physicality is changed as he struggles to satisfy his base needs, even as he aspires to meet his "Master" on a higher intellectual and emotional level.

Export EU: A guide to the European Union for Australian Business
Executive Summary
The European Union is one of the largest economies in the world along with the United States, with a GDP of US$11 trillion in 2003. Australia and the member states of the EU have a long trading history and, taken as a single entity, the EU is Australia's largest trading partner and source of foreign investment. Australia has run a historical trade deficit with the EU. However, Australian merchandise exports to the EU have increased steadily in recent years and services trade has also grown strongly. Following enlargement in May 2004 from 15 to 25 members and further market integration, the EU will continue to be a very important market for Australian exporters. EU membership is set to increase in the future.
The single market enables goods to move freely throughout the EU. Australia enjoys good access to the EU market, with the exception of agriculture. The EU and Australia have differences on some trade policy issues but our trading relationship is healthy.
The EU is the world's largest exporter and plays a significant role in the international trade arena, including in the World Trade Organization (WTO). It has also been active in pursuing bilateral and regional free trade agreements to achieve its economic and political objectives.
On 1 May 2004, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, the Slovak Republic and Slovenia joined the existing 15 EU member states. Romania and Bulgaria are aiming to join by 2007. Negotiations for Turkey and Croatia's accession are to begin in 2005. Expanded membership has resulted in enormous growth in the population and area of the EU. Central European markets have become increasingly attractive as the benefits of joining the EU flow through to their economies. Some Australian companies are already active in these markets.
The euro has so far been adopted by 12 EU member states, forming the 'euro area' and the new members will be seeking to adopt the euro in the near future. For Australians doing business in the EU, the euro reduces cross-border transaction costs, impacts on pricing strategies, and creates a deeper and more liquid financial market.
The EU presents an excellent range of opportunities for Australian companies. Section One of this publication outlines these opportunities and provides information for potential exporters on the EU and its institutions. All dollar amounts are in Australian Dollars (A$) unless otherwise specified.
The A-Z in Section Two of this publication includes a list of terms that business may encounter when dealing with the EU. It also contains a number of case studies from firms already doing business in this market.
Links to economic fact sheets for 29 countries, in Section Three, provide a statistical profile of EU and potential EU member states. Appendices include a comprehensive list of commonly used acronyms and abbreviations, a detailed list of contacts, both here and overseas, and a further reading section.

I\'m new to carrying... but I don\'t know if I could live with the fact that I watched someone take my wife\'s life and though I was prepared and \"willing\" to take action, I didn\'t. Just my nickel minus three pennies.Originally posted by Bumper
Unless he gets the notion that he is at the very least caught and going to wind up in jail and decides to slit your wife\'s throat and let you shoot him (suicide by armed citizen). Nope, we\'re going to have to disagree on this one. I would be interested in what your wife would say. I know what mine would say, and I would shoot, period.

John writes:
Hi, Pete. I've read that you have generally recommend tight tops over pillowtops and thought perhaps this was because the softer foam often found in pillowtops might not last as long. However in the case of the Stearns & Foster Twila, which I am considering getting, the luxury firm euro pillow top and the luxury firm tight top versions of this mattress have the exact same materials in the same layers. The only difference between the two appears to be how the top layers are attached to the rest of mattress.
Does the tight top still offer advantages over the euro pillow top in this case? Also since the two versions of mattress have the same materials and layers can I expect that they will feel the same too? (I tried the luxury firm euro pillowtop equivalent of the Twila here locally and thought it was very comfortable and am in the process of finding a tight top locally to try also.) Thanks for your help.
Hi John,
When you find the tight top version, you'll notice that it feels firmer, despite the similarity in materials used.
The padding in the pillowtop is not tightly attached to the edge of the mattress, as are all of the materials in the tight top.
The result is a soft surface feel....hence, their popularity.
When you again have the opportunity to try the pillowtop, stand beside it and press down on the surface with your hands, you'll notice the pillow part pull inward toward the center of the mattress, which doesn't happen when you do the same thing to the cooresponding tight top model...hence, the reduction in durability.
Here's our link to the Twila models.

The Daily Grind: Are you upset with how MMOs handle women? {Massively}
Oct 27th 2010 6:46PM Hey guys great comments, to clarify I am not against "Fantasy attire" but I do think that metal panties are an odd choice when killing monsters. I think that games that allow the choice for players to be sexy or not are great. I do expect sexy girl fighters but as game players shouldn't we look at whether this is or is not a good role model for young girls. Again I think there is room for both and as I stated even my wife was wanting more revealing attire for Fable. I know that men in lion cloths and women in less are common but what of the games where the woman's version of the same armor is just underpants (like Runes of Magic) wouldn't the female version be like the male's only well female?
I also would ask do all of our heroes in games need to be over muscled males and over sexualized females? I for one would like to see more options, even if I do enjoy the stereotypes once in a while.

Optional: You can enter notes about this product below. If you do not wish to add notes, click the 'Add' button.
Brow Fix is a clear, wax-based pencil that allows you to shape and tame even the most unruly brows. The waxy texture is firm, yet soft enough to easily apply to brows and it has great holding power for stray hairs. If you apply Brow Fix with too much pressure, your brows can look unnaturally matted, but otherwise this product leaves brows soft and manageable. You can wear Brow Fix alone or over a brow powder or tint for a more defined look. As an added bonus, you can use this product as a clear lipliner to prevent your lip color from feathering or you can use it under eyeshadow to give a darkened liner effect. How cool! Note that although this pencil needs routine sharpening, we made an exception and assigned it our highest rating because it performs so well.
The Anastasia Beverly Hills product line was developed by "definitive eyebrow expert" Anastasia Soare, a woman who owns a chic Beverly Hills salon. Her namesake product line is built around specialty brow products and shaping tools based on her criteria. Although she has expanded the line to include skin-care and other makeup items, the brow products remain the heart of the line; the skin care seems to be little more than an afterthought.
What sets the Anastasia line apart is the wide selection of brow-grooming products and their impressive shade range for natural-looking brows. Overall, the line is a mixture of both good and bad products, at a relatively high price point. We were expecting to find great brow pencils from a line devoted to perfecting the eyebrow, but Anastasia failed miserably with their extremely hard-textured Perfect Brow Pencil.
Their skin-care products also rank low in terms of efficacy and high in terms of misleading claims, and the mascara misses the mark completely. There are a few so-so makeup products you can ignore, and some of the brow kits have a frustrating mix of good products and awful products.
On the flip side, what's great about Anastasia Beverly Hills are their fabulous brow powders, good brushes, brow-taming products, and some helpful products such as Brow Fix, Brow Pen, and Tinted Brow Gel. They also have a beautiful Blush Quad and a couple of good highlighter pencils. Many of the products cater to those who are new to brow shaping (including a brow stencil set), and, depending on your local department store, you may even be able to schedule an appointment with an Anastasia brow specialist who can show you the way, following the namesake company founder's famous Golden Ratio. For more information about Anastasia Beverly Hills, call (800) 310-3773 or visit www.anastasia.net.

Neither Zullinger nor Johnston would take calls from Westword, but DPS spokesman Mark Stevens says, "I don't think anyone here would tell those kids what to do about their artistic expression. They just can't preach religion. People can't feel as if their tax dollars are going into a performance that would be or could be perceived to take a side."
"The problem with the play," adds Amy Hudson, also speaking for the DPS, "is that students can study any number of things in the classroom, but there is that educational context. The concern with the play is that people could walk in off the street and see that DPS is having the play Everyman without any context. We wanted more context so that people would see it as an academic pursuit."
As it stands now, the play will not be produced this semester because there is not enough time to do it. But Nye says he is planning a new version of Everyman for the spring semester called Everyman on Trial. "It would be a courtroom drama which would address the issue of censorship," he says. "The evidence would be a production of Everyman, and it would end with a public discussion of the issues. The lawyers were comfortable with that concept."
Act II, Scene II. The Students: Enter stage right.
For his part, Anti-Defamation League director Saul Rosenthal feels the entire sequence of events was blown out of proportion by everyone involved: the teachers, students, administrators and parents.
"We received a phone call two weeks ago from a relative of a student in the school, and she said to us that they are doing these two plays which may contain inappropriate religious content," he says. Although Rosenthal did call the school to ask for a copy of the script, he never actually talked to anyone and never planned to file any sort of complaint.
"The students start calling us and saying they are angry at us and that they were told that ADL is engaging in censorship and that we are going to sue," he says. "Then they go to the school board and do the same thing. All this time, Mr. Nye is not calling them off or giving them the right information, and we still hadn't even seen the play."
Rosenthal says his organization is interested in maintaining a clear separation of church and state but that he prefers to find a solution that everyone can agree on. "We don't sue anybody," he says, adding that he might not even have an issue with a medieval play like Everyman being performed in a public school.
Rather than Nye being a victim of censorship, the Flanagans and several other people who asked not to be named suggest that he used the students and the media to stage the entire drama at the school when it's possible that the play wouldn't have been cut at all. "There was no censorship going on," says Mike Flanagan. "We are about as anti-censorship people as you can find. This is an issue of an out-of-control drama instructor who got questioned by a DPS lawyer and fanned the flames immediately."
Works of art are cut for lots of reasons, including time and space, Nye says. "We are accustomed to it in the theater," he adds. "A case could be made either way about whether the integrity of the play was maintained. I certainly felt it was, and now it's in a version that will be better appreciated."
Exit. End Act Two.
