dotTech Advice
MAGIX PC Check & Tuning 2010 is an interesting program. It is another jack-of-all-trades-master-of-none that focuses specifically on system cleaning/tuning/health/maintenance, data security, and system tweaks. Here are all the individual components it has:
At first I was impressed by MAGIX PC Check & Tuning 2010 thinking "wow this has a lot of features". However, when I got to using it I noticed MAGIX was a bit sneaky when putting together PC Check & Tuning 2010. For example, the Defragment Drives option is nothing more than a shortcut to the defragmentation tool that comes with Windows; PCCT 2010 (PC Check & Tuning 2010) doesn't have a defragmentation tool of its own. (Good thing we have Auslogics.) Another example is how the registry cleaner and defragmentation tools are "powered by Eusing Software"… a politically correct way of saying they are Eusing Registry Cleaner and Eusing Registry Defrag repackaged, both which are freeware. (Eusing Registry Cleaner is very aggressive, by the way; it found 697 problems with my computer whereas CCleaner only found 103.) Then there are not-so-sneaky-but-still-sneaky things like Password Protect which, at first glance (at least to me, anyway), seems to be a feature that allows you to password protect programs (i.e. an EXE password protector) but in reality it just password protects PCCT 2010; and the double-use of Configure services, placing it under Increase performance and Info – My PC artificially making it look like PCCT 2010 has more modules than it actually has.
Furthermore, some of the other modules are sub-par, such as the
- Data shredder only having the ability to do Guttman (35-pass) or "Psuedo-random" which is simply defined as a "few passes". Then again, who would want to use Data shredder over East-Tec Eraser 2010 or Heidi's Eraser.
- Create partition backup which appears to be an image backup tool but apparently can't use VSS because it is asking me to reboot my computer in order to backup my logical partition; and while it allows the storing of backups on discs (CD/DVD/BD) it appears it only allows for storing of backups on discs and no where else. (I cannot verify this latter half because I didn't fully use this backup feature – I didn't reboot my computer when asked.) Create partition backup truly pales in comparison against the likes of Macrium Reflect.
- Delete Internet history, for some reasons, is not able to clear everything telling me some things will be "deleted automatically the next time the PC is started." I wasn't aware browser history and cache couldn't be deleted while the computer is in use. While MAGIX doesn't specify what browsers this Delete Internet History feature works for, I believe it only works for Firefox and Internet Explorer. CCleaner is still king.
- Display processes is rudimentary, displaying basic information about processes (CPU usage, RAM usage, autostart, the file path, etc.) and providing users with the ability to kill them; but not providing users with the ability to do anything else. Heck, I couldn't even right-click a process to be taken to change its priority or open the file location like I can in Windows Task Manager. AnVir Task Manager anyone?
- Maybe it is just me but I expected Info – My PC to display a lot more information than it does. It tells me what drives I have, what Windows I have installed, my graphics card, my monitor, the CPU I have, how much RAM I have, monitor resolution, and some basic Windows information. Aside from that, it doesn't say much. Indeed tools like Speccy, EVEREST Ultimate Edition, and WinAudit blow Info – My PC out of the water.
There are some features that I found to be interesting, though, such as the
- Configure system start module. While it isn't a very sophisticated startup manager – in fact it is fairly simplistic and no match for the likes of Autoruns – the interesting feature is the Optimize automatically feature where PCCT 2010 automatically enables/disables startup entries as it sees fits (something Soluto likes to do, too). Unfortunately Optimize automatically didn't really impress me; but it could be that I am a stickler at controlling startup programs/processes and always manually keep them clean. PCCT 2010 disabled five of my entries: TenClips, Digsby, Virtual CloneDrive, Roboform Pro, and WinPatrol. I can understand why PCCT 2010 would want to disable the first three; having this first three is a personal choice of mine and I am sure most people would prefer them to be off. However, why PCCT 2010 would disable Roboform Pro and WinPatrol is beyond me: Both are programs that should be started at Windows boot, especially WinPatrol. On the brightside, the Configure system start module has a Restore button that allows users to quickly undo any thing done via Optimize automatically, so no harm was done.
- Configure services module, which allows users to end/start services can change them set them as "always active", "if required", or "deactivated". Like Configure system start, Configure services has an Optimize automatically option which goes through your services and chances the startup status based on what PCCT 2010 thinks they should be set to. While I didn't particularly find anything "wrong" with what PCCT 2010 did, my problem is who should I trust more with the status of my services: Microsoft, the people who created Windows, or MAGIX, a company that primarily provides multimedia products but decided to venture into other areas? That is not to say Microsoft is always right and MAGIX is a terrible developer; but rather there is the idea of core competency and I will take Microsoft's advice over how to manage my services than MAGIX's any day. (As far as I can tell, PCCT 2010 primarily only changes Microsoft services.) If you do decide to give Optimize automatically a whirl, there is a Restore button to allow you to easily undo what just happened.
- File assignment module which allows users to easily control what programs are associated with what file types. While Windows 7 users can easily do this by using native Windows 7 features, and Vista users can fairly easily change file associations also, this module can be handy for people that use older windows like, um I don't know, Windows XP.
- Context menu "New" module which allows users to easily add/remove file types from the right-click context menu's "New" menu.
- PC Check Live module. I am not really sure what this does – MAGIX isn't very description and I didn't turn it on myself – but it seems to be a feature that activately monitors your computer and, uh, keeps it maintained? I don't know, honestly.
To sum up this semi-long rant: If I were doing a full review on MAGIX PC Check & Tuning 2010 it would probably get an "ordinary" rating. If I were in the market for a system utility I definitely won't spend $39.95 on when the likes of TuneUp Utilities can be had for $49.95. However, while MAGIX PC Check & Tuning 2010 is available for free, we can't complain much, now can we? Oh wait, yes I can.

Indeed tools like Speccy, EVEREST Ultimate Edition, and WinAudit blow Info – My PC out of the water!!
Hey Ashraf!!
What's the BEST for you?? Which one are you using right now??EVEREST Ultimate Edition, right??
It installs as 2010.
C:Program Filesjv16 PowerTools 2010
So that's all very strange. -
Nice review Ashraf…honeslty I was not aware of this new freebie but why bother of this tool if you can now grab for free the award-winning and unbeatable TUNE UP UTILITIES 2010??
Even TUNE UP UTILITIES 2009 is better than this: do you agree with me, buddy??
I prefer jv16 PowerTools 2010 from [REMOVED. Reason: That is not a legit PowerTools 2010 promotion. It is a PowerTools 2009 promotion unethically claimed as being PowerTools 2010. See http://dottech.org/freebies/18008/ for PowerTools 2009.]
Thank you Ashraf for the info and thanks to MAGIX for the giveaway
Tried this one a few days ago when I found it promoted at another site. I cleaned the 'startup' items without paying too much attention to what it was doing in the background. Result – 90% of my startup progs / system tray icons gone. Thought – that's ok – i'm sure there will be a rescue centre to restore changes. Nope, only Windows Restore that I could find. This didn't restore my startups. Luckily had just made a disk image with Acronis so was able to wind back. Moral of the story – don't make system changes without looking carefully first – especially with a program that has limited restore options! p.s. in general I love Magix software
Thanks for the "heads up" Ashraf. Won't have to waste my time on this one.
Shueygal -
I got 3 licences from this program during buying other Magix products, but after my very bad experience with the registry cleaner I will never use this again . Some users with same experience are in the German Magix Forum. Tune Up 2010 was for free also last year and works fine for me .
Jim Hillier
Great job as always Ashraf.
One point: Your assertion that Eusing Registry Cleaner is more aggressive than CCleaner's registry cleaning module is 100% correct. However, I have used Eusing Registry Cleaner for a very long time and I can assure you it is also very safe.
It provides arguably the perfect balance of aggression and safety.
All the best…..Jim
When I read about you complaining about a certain product, I take it as a well-thought out and honest opinion of the product at hand. Aggressive registry cleaners gives me and many others the creeps. I too, will pass on this offering. As for the defragger, I will stand up for Auslogic, it is fast, and efficient.
John Warren
A bit before Christmas you directed us to the free version of Magix Movie Edit Pro 15 Silver. As a result of "playing" with this and moving on to the trial version of "17" I bought the Download version of Movie Edit Pro 17 Plus HD.
Part of the deal was a "free" version of Check and tune which I've looked at briefly. I can't see that it does much more than various facets of freebies CCleaner or Comodo System Cleaner.
What really concerned me was the results of the registry cleaner. The two apps I just mentioned gave different results for the number of problems detected (as they always do), but Magix reported way more which I found a bit suspicious! I did a bit of a cleanup with one of them a couple of days ago, and now, although they both showing something, Magix is showing no probs!
Grab one of the other two and a free Defragger (which one do uou think is best out of Defraggler, My Defragand you're away (although I'm more than willing to be corrected)
Frank D
Thank you, Ashraf, but I will not be trying this. I've been having problems dealing with non-English language programs. I have nothing against the German language (it was my grandparents'), but I had too many problems with a previous giveaway, eXPert PDF, because I couldn't install it (the _Seriennummer_ wouldn't work) or communicate with the developer due to the language barrier (I know, it's my problem, but it's real). Too much of a hassle to jump through the hoops and after hours and days of trial and error, being told in e-mails that everything should work, winding up being frustrated and locked out of a piece of software.
Happy belated New Years, Ashraf!
'Preciate you, and thanks for the great review ! Now I don't have to waste my time.

This is a very simple, but very effective way to make a drawing that looks like it came right off an African cave wall.
I originally made this craft (the one in the photo) for Egypt (thus the pyramids). Use images of lions, giraffes, rhinos and hunters with spears to give the craft an African theme.
We're not trying to replicate the art exactly, so after studying some African animals and explaining that cave drawings depicted the artists' lives just let the kids get creative.
Here's images of real cave drawings (petroglyph)
Here are some more ideas for what types of petroglyphs the kids might draw:

Lion: Giraffe:

It's New York versus Boston, players against owners and older athletes facing younger ones, all taking sides in the presidential contest between Mitt Romney and Barack Obama.
Walt Disney Co.'s ESPN acquired television rights to the Wimbledon tennis tournament, ending NBC's run of showing the tournament after 43 years.
Walt Disney Co. reached a long-term agreement with Comcast Corp. that provides cable TV subscribers with programs on TVs, computers and mobile devices.
Walt Disney Co. said Chief Executive Officer Robert Iger will take on the added role of chairman next year at the theme-park and entertainment company, part of a plan to appoint a new CEO in 2015.

"The opening line is five, six-to-one? I think it's ridiculous. Jones is facing a different style of fighter than he's fought recently. Jones is used to controlling where the fight is, if it's on the feet or on the ground. He's gonna have a real hard time with this one. It's gonna be a good test for him. I like both guys but it's definitely not a five-to-one fight. It's gonna be fun to watch."
- Chuck Liddell gave his thoughts about Jon Jones vs. Rashad Evans to Fight Hub TV.
"Anderson think it through,
There's still a few months before they lock the cage door behind me and you.
Last time they raised your hand,
But it was plain to see
That I took a lot more out of you than you took out of me.
I broke the mirror and I blew away the smoke.
It was me who tapped,
But it was you who broke"
- Chael Sonnen unveiled his poem for Anderson Silva at the UFC 145 Q&A.
"I think Chael will out-wrestle Anderson and beat him this time, and then I'll get the rematch with Chael considering how close our fight was. If I had Chael over five rounds, I'd definitely beat him. In that last fight, I'd have stopped him in the fourth for sure. He was spent after trying to submit me in that third round. Towards the end of that round I was raining down shots on him."
- Michael Bisping told Your MMA what he thinks will happen when Sonnen meets Silva, and when the Brit gets a rematch against the UFC middleweight No. 1 contender.
"I think random drug testing is good. I've always been part of a sport where we were always randomly drug tested and that's good. I'm clean, I don't take anything and I'm happy to do those kinds of tests. I want to fight against somebody who is clean. If somebody isn't, that's definitely a big advantage for them. I want it to be on the same playing field. I'm hoping everyone is clean. With Overeem's situation, I think the UFC or commission will find something to do and definitely take care of the situation, so I'll just leave it in their hands."
- Cain Velasquez told kimura.se he just wants a PED-free opponent.
"Actually, no one in MMA was surprised. I guess it's impossible to get that big naturally. No one expected it (random drug test), I guess that's what happened. I don't know when he stops taking it, I don't know how these things happen and how he doesn't not to get caught, but it was a surprise (test)".
- Fabricio Werdum admitted to Tatame.com that he, nor any of his colleagues are shocked at Alistair Overeem's testosterone levels.
"Me and Georges are still tight. It's always been that way he always lived in Montreal, he's always traveled around. I think people are probing for weaknesses now, anything they can get, but that's business as usual for Georges. He's a great guy. Two of my champions are fighting each other and I just step out of it. Let the other coaches get a lot of credit so we have all these protocols now after this situation. Now I step out and those guys will have a lot of fun and I'll be eating a cheeseburger somewhere. Everything's cool, Georges is great and we're the same tight team we've always been. I'm not gonna help either of them against each other."
- Coach Greg Jackson confessed to kimura.se that he will partake in either corner when UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre meets Carlos Condit, two of Jackson's students.
"There is one thing that is an absolute fact, and no matter how often Greg Jackson pumps that family [expletive], Greg Jackson is a [expletive] businessman. The more top guys he brings in, the more money he makes. There's nothing wrong with Greg Jackson, but he's a [expletive] businessman. Some of these fighters, who ought to know better but don't listen to that [expletive] and don't take it for the crock of [expletive] that it is. These guys need to make the decision where they train based on where they think they'll get the best work and develop the best, and not on this [expletive] crazy idea that you're becoming a part of a family. Greg Jackson [expletive] told Rashad this wouldn't happen, that they're family and all that other [expletive], but look what is going on now. Look and see who is at Jackson's and who is not. Train where you think it's going to be best for you and if that's Jackson's, that's fine. Just don't buy into this family [expletive] because there's nothing to it. This is the fight business, not the friend business."
- White explained via Yahoo's Cagewriter that coach Jackson is a business man and that the trainer should not take all the flak from Jones and Evans having a fallout.
"We had a flurry of people contacting us through e-mail, Twitter … Rashad throwing a complete fit … and then Dana having to call him to calm him down. If (people) thought it was just satire, we wouldn't have had that reaction. Dana had to talk to Rashad on the phone for 30 minutes to calm him down, to tell him, 'Are you crazy? There's no way I would ever bet on a fight or bet against you.' It didn't read like a joke at all. If you look at the article, when you first read that, it sounds like that they were in a room with Dana, talking to him, and he says, 'Oh, and he kind of made a mistake and said something, and said 'Don't print that.' We're currently evaluating whether [their retraction] is sufficient or not. Like I said, there's been a massive amount of fallout in the wake of them putting out something that is completely reckless in the way that they did. I don't understand how anybody could defend what they did. It's a very serious allegation. You've got to understand, Rashad's entire team — his entire camp — was in his ear telling him they read this online and that Dana bet half a million dollars against him. This was a real issue. This isn't just some kind of slap on the back, funny little joke. This was reckless reporting on their part."
- UFC co-owner Lorenzo Fertitta spoke to USA Today about the allegations made by a website that White makes financial wagers on UFC bouts.
"When I watch my first fights I used to flail. Everything's flail-y, and I realize the power of flexing your abdominal when you try to strike and things like that. I definitely feel as though I'm hitting harder, and I'm excited. I wobbled Rampage (Jackson) a little bit when I hit him, and I wobbled Lyoto (Machida) when I hit him, and I think out of all those guys, Rashad has the weakest chin. I think he has the weakest chin of anyone I've fought since 2010, and I think I'm going to exploit that."
- Jones said at the UFC pre-fight press conference his previous opponent's had a more solid chin than Evans.
"I think a fighter like Dan Henderson or even Chael Sonnen who is a very big 185-pounder and used to compete as a light heavyweight with strong wrestling. They have to take him out of his comfort zone and take away his reach advantage. There is no longer in the division and maybe not in the sport as far as Jones reach. His takedown defense is good and he has very good wrestling. He has very unorthodox striking which makes him very dangerous. I think you have to use the fence, use your wrestling and force him to fight your fight. Either one of those guys can do that."
- Randy Couture predicted to Five Ounces of Pain who he thinks could beat Jones.
"I want to be champion one day, but I'm still very young. One thing I lack in the top of this division is experience. I need more fights, to stay regular and fight three times a year."
- Rory MacDonald admitted in a UFC 145 post-fight interview what he lacks and wants.
"I get to eat some pizza, some ice cream; it's going to be a party tonight! But, no alcohol."
- Michael McDonald detailed his victory party in a UFC 145 post-fight interview after defeating Miguel Torres.
"[My performance] sucked. I didn't get the job done…. I allowed his range to kind of throw me off a little bit. I hurt my foot in the second round, so it kind of messed up my mobility a little bit…. It's something I've got to go back and work on…. I thought I could catch him off [grabbing the hands]. I couldn't and I should have stopped reaching for his hands. His elbows [laughs]. He kept catching me with those elbows. It's a lesson learned…. I still don't like him. He fought a good fight, I have respect for him as a fighter. I had respect for him as a fighter before, but I still … nah. I'll tell you what: We're going to fight again."
- Evans admitted in a UFC 145 post-fight interview that he still doesn't like Jones.
"If (a teammate) can beat me, they can beat me. It is what it is. They deserve to fight me then. I'm not going to hold back some guy that's in my camp if he wants to fight me. That's not my thing. It's just a personal choice and a personal opinion, but I think eventually, hey you guys are going at it, then go out and have two beers together afterwards. Go out there and prove who's best that day, and go out and be friends again."
- Liddell was a guest The MMA Hour, and he gave his best advice for teammates fighting one another.

MEDFORD, Ore. – Medford Police have a new SWAT vehicle that they say could withstand multiple hits from a 50-caliber, full metal jacket weapon.
The $260,000 Humvee-like truck built on a Ford F-550 chassis can provide protection for 10 officers, who can sight a gun through the revolving gun turret on the roof or gun portals in the doors or walls. The truck was paid for with savings from the Medford Police budget and they say it should last 25 years; it is expected to be used about 20 times a year.
"We don't know when the call is going to come but when it does come and it requires something like this, then we need to be there and struggling with mechanical difficulties is not the level of service that we'd like to provide," Medford Police Sgt. Ben Lytle
The first time the SWAT truck was used was last week during a standoff in Medford. It had been delivered earlier in the day and was sent out with a second SWAT vehicle in the early afternoon.

Spring is here! The Animal Welfare League of Alexandria is ready to Spring2ACTion on April 9th and raise lots of money to help support Alexandria's homeless four-legged friends. We are calling on all of our supporters and friends to donate online to our organization on Wednesday and help AWLA win cash prizes on the biggest giving day of the year!
Every donation you make helps the animals we serve. A gift as small as $10 helps to microchip a dog, cat or rabbit and a gift of $500 helps provide urgent dental care for a senior pet.
Help us to reach our goal of $25,000!!!
This year, you can even shop for a cause, and let your favorite businesses know that you want them to donate some of their profits to help our community's homeless animals.
Our furry, feathered and finned friends deserve the chance to thrive and to find forever homes.
The League also provides spay/neuter services, behavior and training help, humane education,
and pet bereavement services.
As we Spring2ACTion this week, we look forward to purring in satisfaction as more animals find a better quality of life and more friends help us to reduce the population of our community's smallest and neediest homeless residents.
Please consider a gift to the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria so that we can continue to help animals in need and place them in loving homes.
Your gift to our Spring2ACTion fundraiser will improve the quality of life for our community's animals. On behalf of the animals that your donations help every day, thank you! You are making a big difference!

Douglass' Sacred Path Login to comment
Monday, May 03 2010 01:25:39 PM
In the early 1900s, it was customary on college campuses for the rising classes to impose 'friendly' restrictions on the new first-year class, and the New Jersey College for Women was no exception to this tradition. The NJC Class of 1922 deemed that first-year students were not permitted to wear anything red and were prohibited from walking on the path from George Street to College Hall for the duration of their first year. This path is known as Sacred Path.The NJC community decided that at the end of spring semester, they would gather for a "moving up" of the classes ceremony, in which first-year students would be escorted down the Sacred Path by upper-class women, thereby officially becoming sophomores. Today, Rutgers University honors the Sacred Path tradition with a program in the spring that begins at Voorhees Chapel. The program includes a ceremony of the moving-up of the Douglass classes, a tribute to all service groups, and culminates with a fire pit lit parade to College Hall. Along the way, the participants make a wish on a pinecone and toss into the flames of the fire pits. They then move down the Sacred Path to a reception in the Douglass Campus Center in which the participants receive a charm corresponding to their class year. At the end of four years, they will have four charms to commemorate their years at Rutgers. In addition, each class year is represented by a certain color. Alumnae receive an ivy leaf charm. Dressed in black, seniors receive the mortarboard. In red, juniors receive a key. Wearing pink, the sophomores receive a clock. Clothed in white, the first years receive a lantern.The most recent celebration of Sacred Path was held on Sunday, May 2, 2010. Over 700 students, alumnae, family, and friends filled the chapel to honor Douglass tradition and to collect their charms.

Tiger Moth
This is a really neat plane and a wonderful kit of a neat plane - and your photo's look great. I've got a Flair Puppeteer new in the box and I am impressed by Flair's kits. Long and short there are 2.54 cm/inch and 25.4 mm/inch. That makes a centimeter equal to 0.393" and a millimeter equal to 0.039".
Nice build keep building and Yeah it aught to fit the plans. Cliffc |

Also, the main spars for all four wings are glued and sanded to fit the spruces, working on the rear spars right now (I'm starting to see the light in the tunnel, just hope that it isn't the train (again)). cabane struts also soldered, trying to figure out how to build and fit the center wing part?" /kajman |

Finally...SOMEONE is building a Flair Tiggie !!
Dear Krokko:
The PIPE from New England USA here...I've been out of work due to the recession (since September 2008) and when I can SOMEDAY get back to work...AND return to the hobby once more...the Flair Tiger Moth in quarter scale (usually nicknamed the "Tiggie" in American English) would be a GREAT pick for doin' up with four stroke power, much like you've done. The Laser 180 has a camshaft drive setup, exactly like an Enya single cylinder four-stroke glow ignition engine has, that WILL allow you to get the engine running CLOCKWISE with no additional parts needed...that's an important feature for the Tiger Moth, as if one has a desire to REALLY "go the extra distance" in making their Tiggie even more "scale" than most... ...as I'd be doing in replicating Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome's own Tiggie, seen here nose-on with its pilot Bill King - it's the real-world Tiger Moth closest to me "over on this side of the pond"...with the Flair kit, I'd make DANGED certain that I select a model engine (or "mill", as in hot rod slang from over here) that CAN be run in the exact same direction as shown above in the photo, for a Flair Tiggie someday ! The Saito four-stroke mills in the same size range as your Laser (the FA-150 and FA-180) DO have something available that functions as a reverse rotation camshaft . It's basically the same "left cylinder camshaft" that Saito's 48 cm3 (3.0 cubic inches) displacement size opposed twin four-stroke mills use, and as the left side cylinder on Saito's opposed twin cylinder 48 cm3 engines DO have their intake and exhaust port locations reversed in relation to the single-cylinder mills that they're based upon, using the "left cylinder camshaft" from those on a single-cylinder Saito mill of roughly half the displacement of the 48 cm3 opposed-twin mill DOES work to reverse the original engine's rotation, to get the "clockwise" rotation of a full-sized Tiger Moth's de Havilland Gipsy Major inverted istraight-four mill with either of the mentioned Saito engines. To get back to the kit, it DOES appear to be a quality kit...please let me know by private message if you'd like scanned versions of either the Aeromodeller or Bjorn Karlström scale drawings of the Tiggie to help with your build sent along...and I've got a goodly number of photos of Bill King's Tiggie already to help with such a build someday. I've also got scans of the main LG sketches of the Tiggie (as well as of the cockpit area!) from one of the RCM&E Scale Annuals from many years ago that could be of help, so if you'd like those as well, please send a private message to get in touch. Just hoping your Tiggie flies well after completion, whether you decide to "clockwise" your Laser 180 or not (clockwise rotation Zinger wood props for such a "conversion" are listed on the Internet)...I KNOW that I'd be doin' the engine "clockwising" for certain, whenever I can get a chance to get myself a Flair Tiggie kit in the future after getting back to work! Also, how about some "bare-bones" Tiggie restoration photos to help with your build as well...on the Net, as one might expect! Best of luck and Yours Sincerely, The PIPE....!! |

thank you for your kind words and your offerings. I'll wait until later before deciding on scale details.....no hurry - it will take some time before the frame is ready, Flair is leaving most of the work to the builder, including not being able to provide a fuselage plan 1:1. Not mentioning one of the wing plans were the text is reversed, yes you can read it with the help of a mirror, being a kit builder has its ups and downs....back to work rgds/krokko |

Many years ago I built an OK Pilot (Japanese) 1/4 scale Tiger Moth kit. In my case the model had very good full size drawings and almost zero instructions (the reverse of your situation). The model built into a beautiful Tiger Moth that has served me well for 20 years. mike |

Lucky You!
I'm right now in building the spars for the wings. It will take some contemplation but I will get it right. There is a lot of tube cutting and soldering and hinge producing from thin plates but it's OK, like I said earlier, I needed something for the winter, and that it is! rgds/krokko |

If plans would be helpful at this late stage
Hi Krokko,
I don't know if plans would be of any help at this late a stage in your build, but Traplet have various sizes of plans for the Tiger Moth, if it would help, contact them. They are an English model magazine publisher. I am very seriously considering ordering a set of their Tiger Moth plans and a laser cut short kit (they call it a Laser wood pack) for their 88" span 1.20 to 1.80 4 stroke size, which they offer the short kit of (I think they only offer a short kit of one size). I do not see you mentioning anywhere the span of yours, but if it is 88" and you would like to consider ordering their plan, it is #MW3208. Sackie |

I have their plans for the Tiger Moth. To be short, their plan does not fit the Flair kit, dimensions on span and length are roughly the same, but that's about it. I believe that if you can find all the balsa and hardwood you need then you should be ok with the traplet plan and their laser cut short kit. My tiger: Wingspan 2260 mm (=88,9 inch) Weight 7.3~9 kg Length 1840 mm rgds/krokko |

What are the differences between the wired and wireless versions of Crown head- worn mics? |
The wired versions are the CM-311A and CM-312A. The wireless versions are the CM-311AE and CM-312AE.
The headband and mic elements are the same on the wired or wireless versions. The wired versions can be used with phantom power or powered by an internal 9V battery. If you want to use your mic "wireless" sometimes, and "wired" other times, that is best achieved with the CM-311A or CM-312A models. The important thing to consider is that you will be wearing the mic electronics AdaptaPack AND your transmitter, and using batteries in both, but this setup will give you added flexibility. The wireless head-worn versions (CM-311AE and CM-312AE) can ONLY be used with a compatible "three-wire" wireless transmitter of your choice (see the FAQ concerning wireless systems above). Adding an XLR connector to those models and plugging them into your sound system directly will result in damage to the microphones. |

The Sprockets have edged into playoff contention and are just 2.5 games out of fourth. Surely this weeks quick trouncing of the m-waves will make that up. It's important to peak at the right time - i.e., when everyone else has loads of injured players.
Tough end of the week. Kidd gets held out of games, Hinrich misses some time with a bad back, and Ben Wallace misses last night because of a death in the family. So, Sprockets lose 5-4 only needing seven points and five assists to turn it around to winning 6-3. Kidd ought to sit out the all-star game if he's going to sit out team games waiting for a trade.
Yea, I missed 8 player-games (Arenas, Garnett, Howard) in the 5-day week and luckily managed to only lose 5-3. I agree about Kidd. That "almost trade" certainly had an effect on a few games this week.
My team has finally moved out of last place! My number one pick has been playing with more enthusiasm since moving to Miami. Hopefully, DWayde can start playing "the team game" and hook up Marion with a lot of touches!
Ouch, got seriously torched by the Lights 6-2-1. Combine that with the Infirmary collapsing yet again to the M-waves and the Sprockets have slipped back out of playoff contention - down by two games with two weeks to go. At least we have cool uniforms.
I believe the playoffs start next Monday, March 24. Mikhail crushed me this past week. I think my team is going to have "dead legs" heading into the post-season. I should have played my bench more.
Thinking there were two weeks between now and 3/24 and finding out there is only one not only hurts my playoff hopes, but will put a pretty substantial burden on my work life too. Wonder what I did last week...
I was due for a win. Gotta admit though, didn't expect it to be that bad. But real fun begins a week from now.
There is absolutely no chance at all of my team making the playoffs. Accordingly, the team is playing at a very high level right now, beating contenders, making the news with record games, and dominating the opposition. (at least for a couple of weeks!) Maybe next year. Good luck to those of you bound for the playoffs!
I used to never think that way, but now that you have moved into first place, maybe you're onto something...
Comon, Bill, look at my roster. Anyone expected Hill to go out there and perform? Or Bynum... Or Richardson pulling 30+ pts games... I got lucky with Scola with Yao getting injured. Jefferson is putting up career numbers. Ricky Davis is up there with Wade getting injured... Camby barely missing any games... Baron Davis having a career year... And I autodrafted to boot. I call it luck.
Mine too. Kind of ironic that you & I are 1 & 2 in this last week before the playoffs. We must be lucky. :D
Looks like: 1) Mikhail 2) Detteam 3) Slippy 4) Bill Jr 5) Bill 6) Roscoe Round 1 Mikhail & Detteam get byes Bill vs. Bill Jr-winner plays Mikhail in round 2 Slippy vs. Roscoe-winner plays Detteam in round 2 edit: Bill & Bill Jr might switch places at 4 & 5, but will still play each other in round 1
Hey Linwood! From the advanced league thread... Would you please lockdown the novice league in similar fashion?

Nysø, with Thorvaldsen in front of his studio. Painted by Heinrich Buntzen, 1843.
Nysø is situated close to Præstø in Southern Zealand and was the place where Thorvaldsen sought refuge when he found himself surrounded by too much noise and fuss in Copenhagen. He was a close friend of the owners of the estate, Baron Henrik Stampe and his wife Christine Stampe, and the mansion soon became the sculptor's second home. Baroness Stampe had a workshop set up in the main building and built a small studio for Thorvaldsen in the garden. This studio, which is reminiscent in style of a pavilion, is still in existence.
The Thorvaldsen Collection at Nysø was established in 1926. It contains a number of unique clay models in addition to sculptures and drawings, most of which were made during Thorvaldsen's final years. The collection owes its existence to Christine Stampe, who saved the models from destruction. It was normal for the clay to be re-used when a piece of sculpture had been cast in plaster, but Baroness Stampe saved the clay sketches from Thorvaldsen's customary recycling by having them fired in the estate brickworks. The Nysø Collection also contains drawings by other artists of the Golden Age, who were visitors to Nysø during the same period.

Keneally says $271 million lost on metro
PUBLISHED: 23 Feb 2010 13:01:45 | UPDATED: 24 Feb 2010 05:01:37PRINT EDITION: 23 Feb 2010
NSW Premier Kristina Keneally has confirmed that the state government spent $271 million on the scrapped CBD metro but says it's impossible to put a figure on the cost of redundancies for the Sydney Metro Authority workers.
Labor announced its new transport blueprint on Sunday, dumping the controversial $5.3 billion CBD Metro.
After formally signing the $6 billion contract for the commercial development of Barangaroo in Sydney, which would have been served by the metro, Ms Keneally was asked how much the metro had cost the NSW government.
"As of the end of December, $271 million has been spent on the CBD Metro proposal and on a metro network for Sydney," she told reporters on Tuesday.
"That includes $146 million on stage one works - a metro between central and Rozelle, $29 million on stage 2 works - a metro between central and Westmead and an additional $125 million spend on property acquisitions."
The $271 million figure does not include compensation payments to tenderers and local business, nor does it include redundancy payments to Sydney Metro Authority staff.
Ms Keneally said it was too early to give a figure on the redundancy costs.
"We should acknowledge that a number of people that work at Sydney Metro Authority are contractors, others are employees of the NSW government and where they are employees we'll look to transition them into NSW Transport," she said.
"It would be not possible to give any figure on redundancies until we've had an opportunity to work with those employees."
Lend Lease, which has the contract to develop the Barangaroo precinct on East Darling Harbour, is one company that will be seeking compensation over the dumping of the CBD metro.
Chief executive Steve McCann would not say how much Lend Lease would seek, but told reporters he was pleased by Ms Keneally's recent comments.
"We're obviously encouraged by the premier's comments about compensation," he said.
Opposition transport spokeswoman Gladys Berejiklian said compensation to contractors could cost taxpayers about $60 million.
"It appears the Rozelle metro has cost taxpayers at least $270 million and counting," she said in a statement on Tuesday.
"That doesn't include the $60 million plus in compensation likely to be paid to the companies who were bidding to build it or redundancies paid to Sydney Metro Authority staff and other contractors."

CamelBak Kids' Mini Mule 50 oz. Hydration Pack
Great product
I use it for my long runs. It has plenty of room and it isn't heavy. I can hear the water moving but I'm ok with that. I drink a lot of water so I do run out by mile 10 but it has enough room for me to place a small water bottle in the center which is adjustable.
February 10, 2015
High quality typical of Camelbak products.
Purchased this for a 15 yr old to use for hiking and X-country running. Lightweight and well built, with enough room for lunch, snacks, keys and cellphone.
My only issue was that the reservoir does not have the quick disconnect where the drinking tube meets the reservoir like my other Camelbaks do. I like having that for thorough cleaning after use. Just a minor gripe.
September 25, 2014
Went on a run for the first time with the Camelbak. I loved it and it held strong. A great feature is the pocket in the back in which I held my phone to track my mileage on. Washed and hung upside down and it dried quickly and was ready for use again.
September 23, 2014
Like it
Bought this for my 2yr old, it's a little big but the straps ajust to make it comfortable. It has just enough space in the outside pockets for a few snacks
September 17, 2014
I am very satisfy with this product. It is very practical for runners
September 13, 2014
great product
love it! easy to fill-keeps water cool-easy for my 11 &13yr old to use.
September 11, 2014
This product was well worth the money.
I purchased this for my daughter to use during band camp. She didn't have to worry about carrying a water bottle around or losing it because she had to leave her things to go outside. The CamelBak allows her to drink water when they stop in place but are not allowed to leave formation to get a drink. She liked it so much she used it on Saturday.
August 20, 2014
I Love whoever invented this product. I love it. It helps me keep hydrated during long runs.
July 8, 2014
Nice color has zippers for storage
Price was a little high and didn't have mush selection of colors and customer service was non existent.
April 9, 2014
Great Product for child and adult
I bought 2 of these to keep my 8 year old and myself hydrated while riding our mountain bikes. This is a great product fit both of us with just a quick adjustment. It had enough water for a 2 hour ride without any issue.
It has an extra pocket to hold a snack, cell phone, car keys, etc. Not a lot of room, but we didn't want a backpack, just a water pack :)

I Hung out with Cameron, Amy, Yi-Ping, and Monica. It was pretty cool. Chicago is a great city, and I really enjoyed the time there.
Cameron and I watched a dog dig in about three different spots in the sand at the beach while its owner threw a tennis ball at it and it fetched. It was a lot funnier to watch than it sounds. But then we talked about supersticious pigeons, behavioral patterns, and other interesting things. Cameron and Amy and I went to the museum, which is free on Tuesdays (we liked that). Yi-Ping and Monica were going to go meet us, but they flaked out and just stayed over at Monica's place instead. We observed the emergent fashion trends of women baring a single breast, then both breasts, then back to none at all during a certain series of 18th century paintings.
While I was away in Chicago, Mattias made the 0.8.1 release of NeoEngine. Like most releases, it has some new stuff and some bug fixes. About like you'd expect. =)

Ms HARTLAND (Western Metropolitan) -- I have one question about the Department of Justice.
This is again about a very specific project, Project Respect, which is recognised as being the lead agency dealing with women who have been trafficked into Victoria. In its inquiry into people trafficking for sex work, the Drugs and Crime Prevention Committee came up with a set of recommendations, and part of that was a recognition of the need to support ongoing work in this area. Project Respect has lost all of its funding; it receives no state government funding. It is the lead agency that works with women who have been trafficked, yet it is getting absolutely no money. It is one of those projects that makes a huge difference to the lives of women, but it has been completely defunded.
Hon. G. K. RICH-PHILLIPS (Assistant Treasurer) -- I would say to Ms Hartland that decisions have had to be made in the context of the budgetary environment. I am not familiar with the particular project she is referring to.
Obviously that is a serious issue, but the government has had to make decisions in the context of the funding available within this department in terms of which areas it needs to pursue and which areas it cannot pursue at this point in time.
Ms HARTLAND (Western Metropolitan) -- Can I ask the minister to take that question on notice and seek an explanation as to why Project Respect has lost its funding and also whether this funding has gone to any other agency that is dealing with trafficked women?
Hon. G. K. RICH-PHILLIPS (Assistant Treasurer) -- If I can get some further details from Ms Hartland, I will be happy to follow that matter up.

Medical Comic Conference: Graphic Medicine June 2011 in Chicago
- Posted by Johanna on December 24, 2010 at 3:48 pm
- Category: Graphic Novel News
Brian Fies, the talented author of Mom's Cancer, passes along the following event news:
The second international conference on Graphic Medicine will be held June 9-11, 2011, in Chicago. I was a keynote speaker at the first conference in London last June and thought it was terrific — interesting, fun, and potentially important. The concept is that cartooning and medicine have some interesting overlap that can benefit both. Think of work like Our Cancer Year, Stitches, Epileptic, Cancer Made Me a Shallower Person, my book Mom's Cancer, and many more.
The organizing committee for the 2011 event has just issued a Call for Papers. We're looking for presentations that would be right for a lecture, workshop, or poster session on the theme "Comics and Medicine: The Sequential Art of Illness." David Small is a confirmed keynote speaker and we are negotiating with other notable creators to appear as well.
I wish I was going to be in the area; it sounds like a really interesting blend of fields. I'd love to see someone present on Tezuka's Black Jack!

Just got an email from my teacher friend Mary, she forwarded an email that said the District is looking to starting making cuts for next budget round. First off is cutting guidance, aides, support personnel. Supposedly District will listen to the teachers in this discussion.
After a long discussion with Mary, teacher friend, she said they want guidance staff cut back to 190 days, and all other support staff cut to 190 days as well.

That is the link from Island Packet about bed tax, and what the CEOs get who recieve the money. Chamber CEO makes $315K OUTREAGOUS and bed tax money flows his way. Bateson who runs the arts center makes over 115K.
I think that they should not be handing out money for overpaid CEOs.
Even Briggs of the HH Symphony makes 81K!
Wow and this tax is for tourism. Sure thing, so they CEOs can keep their nice salaries too.

If I read the article correctly, only about 150 kids are being moved to other schools. I heard a story that 32 trailers are being installed at BHS this spring. Trailers are nasty for anyone to learn in them. Students are treated like second class people as well as the teachers in those eye sores of metal. What happens in a big wind like Wednesday? Several times over the past decades it was mentioned to the powers in the district now Truesdale, that another high school was needed.

Huckabee is now being called and upstanding man by Bill O Reilly for blaming the release of the police killer on Arkansas and Washington. Huckabee wanted to give him a second chance. Clemmons as an 18 year old had an 108 year prison sentence. But Governor Huckabee allowed Clemmons to be released.
Huckabee is a moron for trying to cover up his decisions.
Good Bye Huckabee's chance for president!

My first blog, only because I have to say something about the VOX today.
I read the vox about "the problem at Bluffton High School." May I start with spoiled teachers finally having their feet held to the fire, if you refer to a bic lighter with no flint, that is the fire.
Staff at BHS are the ones leading the fight to make the school better.

My first bites into their 99 cents pastor and asada tacos were tear-dropping sensational. And at that moment, I was forever hooked on great al pastors and carne asadas. Later that night I dragged my brother over to El Taquito Mexicano 2's taco truck that they park south of their shop in front of Nishikawa Auto Service.
A couple weeks ago, I was back at the place that initially started this taco craze in my life while I was in Pasadena running some errands (eerrr...at Bevmo shopping for wine). The little taco shop is still the same way I remembered it, yellow, quaint, and homey. The shop unlike it's taco truck at night is run by women. While ordering at the cashier in the back, I noticed how their kitchen looked just like my mama's -- messy and unorganized. It's quite amazing watching three ladies maneuver through the kitchen, the food, and each other. They definitely have the maternal hands that know how to feed society. I heart women cooks!
One thing I really love about ETQ2, both shop and truck is that their salsa roja is HOT, non-gringo HOT, just the way I like it. I usually love their pastors more than their tacos at ETM2. But this time, the asadas were the star. Scents of smokey pepper, citrus, and garlic, their moist and tender asadas were ON POINT! The asadas were nothing but nice cuts of meat, beautifully and perfectly charred. My pastors however tasted overly stewed. One thing about ETM2 is that some days they are great, and other days the stuff is just ok.
While eating at ETM2, I couldn't help but notice the long line over at La Estrella, ETM2's rival taco joint across the street. Marshall used to always say that La Estrella was the place people went for asadas. Hmm...asadas that can possibly rock ETM2's asadas??? Minutes after finishing up at ETM2's, I ran the kitty-corner over to La Estrella because it was time for an ASADA SHOWDOWN.
One look at La Estrella's asada was a quick disappointment. My feelings didn't change either after I took a bite into their overly chopped asada meat. Don't get me wrong, the meat was flavorful, a bit more tangy than peppery. However, without structure, it just tasted like tasty ground beef to me. It also didn't help that La Estrella's salsa was pretty weak compared to rival ETM2's.
With both taco joints being at 99 cents a taco, I've gotto say that my carne asada choice for the day goes out to El Taquito Mexicano 2.
El Taquito Mexicano #2: 1
La Estrella: 0
Let me know if you ever have an ETM2/La Estrella Al Pastor Challenge. You know I'm down.

Genre's Kids With Cancer Fund is a foundation formed by Genre's (like Henry with a J) parents and some friends who love Genre very much. Genre was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) on Memorial Day, 2009. He was 8 yrs. old. Since that day, so much generosity and love has been shown to this family not only by friends and relatives but by complete strangers as well. It is the hope of the Baker family to give back some of that generosity and love by assisting families battling childhood cancers in any way we can - emotionally, financially and spiritually. Our burden has been bearable because of our faith. It is our most sincere desire to show families suffering through childhood cancers that there is hope. You can walk any path on any journey as long as you are able to fully rely on God.
When Genre came home from the hospital he said that he wouldn't have made it through that initial fourteen day hospital stay without his Nintendo DS. He said his game made him feel calm and happy. It helped him escape the insanity that had become his world. That day, he asked me if there was any way he could make sure that every child who is diagnosed with ALL at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh has a DS to play. I didn't know how, but I told him that we'd make it happen. Shortly after that conversation, Genre's Kids With Cancer Fund was born in the fall of 2009.
We are blessed to be able to provide a handheld video game system to every child diagnosed with any cancer at CHP, who does not already have one! If the child has a system, we are happy to provide two new games to help them pass the time during the many hours of treatment and transfusion. These games are priceless to our son during a long treatment or during the times when he has been hospitalized for weeks at a time.
Genre's ideas kept growing. He talked about free golf lessons for kids with cancer and gas cards for the families who live so far from the oncology clinic. Soon our mission grew into what it is today...to help families living through childhood cancer in any way we can, emotionally, financially, and spiritually.
Genre is in remission. He completed his treatment in October of 2012. Pediatric leukemia is the longest of cancer treatments, (3 - 5 years), but it is one of the most cureable. Throughout this cancer journey we have seen much more good than bad, and many more blessings than we could ever have imagined. Thank you for taking the time to visit our site. If you have any questions about who we are or what we do, we would love to hear from you. Please use our contact page or email us at email@example.com.
