Game 4: A strategic shift |
05.10.09 at 9:49 pm ET |
The Celtics came out for what might be the most important half of their season intent on putting the game in the hands of Paul Pierce and Ray Allen. They have been running high isolation pick and rolls with Pierce at the point and Allen setting the screen.
Pierce, who scored 18 points in the first half, kept it going in the early minutes of the third quarter making a pair of jumpers and getting to the line. Allen, who was held to just four points on four shots also made a couple of pull-up jumpers. It's a pretty radical shift in strategy but so far it's paid dividends.
Game 4: Halftime Update |
05.10.09 at 9:24 pm ET |
The first half of Game 4 has been dictated by foul trouble. The tone was set early when Glen Davis was benched 46 seconds after the tip with his first personal. By the end of the first half, 29 fouls had been called and 25 free throws were taken.
Three Fouls: Glen Davis, Paul Pierce, Brian Scalabrine, Rashard Lewis, Marcin Gortat
Two Fouls: Kendrick Perkins, Mikki Moore, Hedo Turkoglu, Dwight Howard, Courtney Lee
Paul Pierce (18 points) scored seven straight points in the second quarter to lead the Celtics before being whistled for his third. Rashard Lewis (11 points) is the high scorer for the Magic.
Ray Allen still struggles on the offensive end. He has attempted just four field goals (4 points) and is 0-for-2 from three-point range.
There are two match ups to keep an eye on in the second half — the longtime battle between Pierce and Turkoglu as well as the emerging duel between Perkins (8 points, 9 rebounds) and Howard (9 points, 10 rebounds).
Game 4: A foul situation |
05.10.09 at 8:51 pm ET |
With 8:11 left in the second quarter the fouls are really starting to build up. Big Baby Davis and Marcin Gortat each have three fouls and the following players have two fouls each:
Game 4: First quarter update |
05.10.09 at 8:42 pm ET |
After one the Celtics are down 28-25, but it has been a noticeably different Celtics team than the one we saw Friday night. Rajon Rondo has been aggressively attacking the basket and he is too quick for Rafer Alston to handle.
Dwight Howard picked up two early fouls, but the Magic got a lift from their bench, particularly Marcin Gortat who came in for Howard and scored six points. The Celtics got caught in a strange situation when it looked like Kendrick Perkins picked up his second foul for an illegal screen. Perkins went to the bench, but after the substitution had been made the refs changed the call to Paul Pierce. Without Perkins in the game, Gortat was able to get two offensive rebounds over the smaller lineup and converted the second into a score.
Orlando started the game shooting 3-for-12, but with the second unit in the game, they made seven of 11.
Game 4: Early update |
05.10.09 at 8:26 pm ET |
At the first media timeout, the Celtics have come out aggressive and feisty and have a 13-10 lead. Two things are noticeably different from Game 3. First, Dwight Howard has been called for goaltending three times. The Celtics were adamant after Game 3 that several of his blocks should have been ruled interference.
The other difference is Orlando is not making shots at nearly the same clip. The Magic are just 3-for-12 and Howard in particular has been limited to his sweeping hook across the lane game, and not the catch and dunk.
Foul trouble will also be something to watch. Brian Scalabrine came in for Big Baby Davis after just 45 seconds but picked up two quick fouls. No offense to Scal, but a far bigger factor is that Howard also got two early and he is out of the game for now.
Redick to start, Lee for House? |
05.10.09 at 8:09 pm ET |
J.J. Redick got the start for the Magic in Game 4 despite Courtney Lee's impressive Game 3 showing. Magic coach Stan Van Gundy said he thought Lee would be a good matchup for Eddie House who has torched Orlando through the first three games. True enough, but that's still Ray Allen operating at the starting two-guard spot, and while Allen is shooting just 30 percent he's still one of the all-time great shooters the league has ever seen.
An interesting move to say the least.
To survive, or to grow |
05.10.09 at 7:58 pm ET |
Stephon Marbury sat by himself in the Celtics locker room. At the other end of the room Rajon Rondo was seated in front of the TV watching film of Game 3. Between Marbury and Rondo was about 50 feet of stony silence. There was no time for idle chitchat in the hours before Game 4, and the mood was deadly serious, even for a locker room that is not exactly known for being a barrel of laughs.
During his pregame press conference Doc Rivers was short and to the point. Any defensive adjustments? "We have to stay in front of them," Rivers said, not that he would have given away the gameplan in any event.
Across the way, Stan Van Gundy was waxing philosophical about the position his team finds itself in. It's no secret that the Magic have developed a bad reputation for not handling success all that well. With his team just hours away from possibly taking a commanding 3-1 lead in its own building, Van Gundy addressed it.
"I don't think confidence is, or ever will be, a problem at any point," he said. "No matter what happens. being able to keep our composure when things get tough. That's where we keep gaining a playoff maturity. As you go along every win gets tougher and tougher. You've got two wins in the second round against the defending champs. That's great. The third one will be harder and the fourth one will be the hardest of all to get. We have to understand that."
Van Gundy stopped for a second and continued, "I'll be interested to see our approach tonight. We have been at our best, as I think Boston has, when things don't look as good. At some point if you want to grab control of a series, you have to do it in back to back games."
This is a crucial test for the Magic. Are they mature enough, grown up enough even to handle success? That's the key question and from Van Gundy's answer it seems that he's not even sure about it himself. Across the way Rivers was asked about having a veteran team, but he didn't agree with the assessment.
"I don't know if this is considered a veteran team," Rivers said. "Last year was a veteran team with Kevin (Garnett) playing and (James) Posey and PJ Brown. last year they just knew where to be. You kind of knew who you were going to be every night. Not that you knew that you would play well every night, but you knew what they were going to give you every night."
And so for the Celtics this too is a crucial test. Can they rally themselves one more time and win a game on the road that while not technically a "must win" is as close as you can get to that distinction. Throughout the playoffs last year, and even the Bulls series, there has not been a point when the Celtics had to go into someone else's building and win a game.
Those are the stakes as Game 4 tips off.

Will This Downgrade Hurt PulteGroup (PHM) Today?
Story updated at 9:55 a.m. to reflect market activity.
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- PulteGroup (PHM - Get Report) was downgraded to "neutral" from "outperform" by Credit Suisse Wednesday.
Shares of PulteGroup fell 2.7% to $19.39 in morning trading.
The downgrade is due to weaker demand as indicated by a recent real estate survey.
Must read: Warren Buffett's 10 Favorite Stocks STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more. ------- Separately, TheStreet Ratings team rates PULTEGROUP INC as a Buy with a ratings score of B. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate PULTEGROUP INC (PHM) a BUY. This is driven by several positive factors, which we believe should have a greater impact than any weaknesses, and should give investors a better performance opportunity than most stocks we cover. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its compelling growth in net income, revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, notable return on equity and impressive record of earnings per share growth. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company shows weak operating cash flow." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Household Durables industry. The net income increased by 274.6% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from $58.74 million to $220.05 million.
- PHM's revenue growth trails the industry average of 28.8%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly increased by 5.6%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- The current debt-to-equity ratio, 0.47, is low and is below the industry average, implying that there has been successful management of debt levels.
- The company's current return on equity greatly increased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of significant strength within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Household Durables industry and the overall market, PULTEGROUP INC's return on equity significantly exceeds that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- PULTEGROUP INC reported significant earnings per share improvement in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past two years. However, we anticipate underperformance relative to this pattern in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, PULTEGROUP INC increased its bottom line by earning $6.74 versus $0.53 in the prior year. For the next year, the market is expecting a contraction of 82.4% in earnings ($1.19 versus $6.74).

"Don't Judge the Series by the First Book!"
This is a wonderful series that is definitely worth your investment. Naked in Death is pretty good, but it wasn't J.D. Robb's best, so don't judge the series by the first book. To be honest, I waited half a year before I read the second book. After that, I knew I was going to spend like 30 something credits on the In Death series. I was completely addicted to them!
Each book gets better as the story progresses. It took me 2 to 3 books to really get to know all the wonderful and interesting characters. Characters you will come to love, respect and admire.
Susan Ericksen gave a stellar performance on the narration. Each character's voice was so distinctive that you could instantly tell who the speaker was. Listening to Susan bringing all my favorite characters to life is a much more enjoyable experience than reading the books myself. I couldn't imagine the narration done by anyone else! I highly recommend that you give it a try!

Multiwavelength output from a Nd:YAG/Cr:LiSAF hybrid laser
Applied Optics, Vol. 38, Issue 9, pp. 1767-1771 (1999)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (212 KB)
A prototype solid-state, multispectral hybrid laser has been designed and tested. The laser provides simultaneous outputs at several wavelengths. The hybrid-laser concept is based on the efficient use of flash-lamp-pump energy distributed between two complementary lasing materials, Nd:YAG and Cr:LiSAF, that share the same pump cavity. The prototype Q-switched hybrid laser provides dual-fundamental-wavelength output at 850 and 1064 nm as well as frequency-doubled output at 532 nm. The laser achieved 3.6% slope efficiency (combined) in free-running operation and 2.4% when Q switched. Higher efficiencies can be obtained with improvements in laser crystal quality and pump cavity configuration.

World's top 10 haunted hotels
See in fullscreen-
Plan to give yourself a good fright this Halloween season with a visit to one of the world's top 10 haunted hotels. Click through our gallery to discover these spooky haunts. Dare you stay the entire night? By QMI Agency
Stanley Hotel, Colorado: This hotel is best known as the inspiration for Stephen King's scary novel "The Shining". Many say the hotel is haunted in real life as well, with guests and staff reporting spooky occurrences often. Invisible parties in the ballroom, piano music without a player and curious ghosts standing in rooms are just a few of the paranormal occurrences at this spooky hotel. (Courtesy Stanley Hotel) -
Queen Mary Hotel, Long Beach, California: A former ocean liner, the Queen Mary now serves as a hotel in California. The hotel offers a haunted maze year-round, but the hauntings on board are not just for show. The ghosts of two young women haunt the first class pool. One woman is believed to have drowned in the pool, while the other was murdered by a man in the change rooms. The sounds of metal and men screaming have also been heard at the front of the ship. These are thought to be the ghosts of the sailors of the HMS Curacao, which the Queen Mary split in half by mistake on the water. (Fotolia)
Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel, Banff, Alta.: This old rail hotel was constructed in 1888 by the Canadian Pacific Railway and is the site of many rumoured hauntings. The mystery of room 873 is perhaps the most captivating. A family was reportedly murdered in this room, and though walls have been built over where the doorway once was, guests still report seeing ghosts of the family. Another rumour is that of the bride who fell down a staircase and broke her neck. The staircase is blocked off, but guests still report seeing a woman wandering the halls in a wedding dress. (Fotolia)
HI Ottawa Jail Hostel, Ottawa: This former prison was in operation for more than 100 years before being turned into a backpackers haven. Guests have reported several strange activities in the hostel, from clothing being scattered on the floor and doors without locks locking themselves, to mysterious encounters with ghostly figures. (Kim Ing Photography/Courtesy HI Ottawa Jail Hostel)
The Langham, London: This hotel is thought to be inhabited by numerous ghosts, from the doctor who first killed his wife, then himself, to a German prince who jumped from a fourth floor window. Room 333 is probably the most haunted room in the entire hotel, visited by both the prince and other ghosts, including one who likes shoving guests out of the bed. (Courtesy Langham Hotels International)
Sagamore Resort, Bolton Landing, New York: It is believed there are several ghosts at this hotel in the Adirondack Mountains. The ghost of a young boy plays pranks on golfers, while the ghosts of a couple visit hotel restaurants and sometimes argue. Hotel workers have also reported seeing the ghost of a stout man with handlebar moustache riding the elevators. (Courtesy Preferred Hotels & Resorts)
Fort Garry Hotel, Winnipeg: This hotel was built in 1913 by the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway and is considered to be one of the most haunted places in Canada. Cleaners have reported seeing objects fly from shelves and a woman who reportedly hung herself at the hotel crying in a corner. (QMI Agency)
Hotel Maison de Ville, New Orleans: Built post-fire, the Hotel Maison de Ville is a small hotel big enough to accommodate paranormal guests. The guest houses behind the main building were once used as slave quarters and a country-music loving ghost has been popping by cottage number four for at least 20 years. (Courtesy Hotel Maison de Ville Facebook)
Hotel del Coronado, San Diego: The Hotel del Coronado was opened more than 120 years ago and ghostly activity has been reported ever since. The most famous ghost is Kate Morgan, a guest who never checked out of the hotel after killing herself while waiting for a husband or lover who never showed. She often plays tricks on guests staying in her former hotel room, but has also reportedly harassed honeymooning couples and taken long walks in the hotel's garden and on the beach. (Courtesy Hotel del Coronado)
Castle Stuart, Inverness, Scotland: This castle-turned-hotel in Scotland has been the site of many ghostly encounters, particularly in the East Tower. The story goes that the Earl of Moray was determined to put an end to the ghostly tales of this tower and hired the biggest, baddest man in the village to stay for a night. The next morning, the hired help was discovered, dead, thrown from a window and with a look of fear frozen on his face. The haunting continues to this day. (Wikipedia/Dave Conner)

Pictures and Review of Bugaboo Donkey Double Stroller
Bugaboo's "Donkey" Double Stroller Packs a Double Punch
How do you compliment a donkey? "Hey, nice a**!" When Bugaboo announced its first foray into the world of double strollers, the news was met with cheers and a collective sigh of relief from mamas who are already fans of the Dutch company's popular pushchairs. But when they saw the side-by-side style, when so many other companies are shifting to a rumble seat style, many worried about the unwieldiness of such a large-looking pram.
Well, after spending an afternoon pushing the stroller in its many forms, Bugaboo flew me there to test out the Donkey, I'm here to say that the innovative stroller (it easily converts from a single to a double with three quick clicks) is narrower than it looks, moves just as smoothly as its older siblings, and maintains the company's signature design features throughout.
Keep reading to see the features of the new Donkey, what I liked best, and how much it will cost you when it makes its debut in April!

Mine floodwater must meet standards before release
PUBLISHED: 21 Jan 2011 10:35:44 | UPDATED: 21 Jan 2011 10:35:44PRINT EDITION: 21 Jan 2011
Water from flooded coalmine pits will be discharged into river systems only when it meets environmental standards, Queensland Premier Anna Bligh says.
About 85 per cent of the state's 59 coal mines are not in production or are operating under restrictions after severe floods this month.
Ms Bligh said many coal pits were filled to the brim.
She said water would not be discharged at the expense of the local environment.
"For those mines to become operational again that water will first of all have to be tested for its water quality and we have to work with the mines on a strategy to pump it out and release it," Ms Bligh told ABC Radio on Friday morning.
"Every single mine is required to have an environmental authority to release water and we are working with every single mine to work out how we get that water out of the pits."
She said it would be ideal to release water soon.
"In some cases, depending on where they are in the river system and how full the river system is, getting it treated if necessary and then back into the river system while there is so much water rushing out is the best time to do it.
"For others, we may need other solutions."

My son and I stayed here for 4 nights in early September. We were able to share the "family" tent which is like two normal ones hooked together since it wasn't being used. The wildlife was amazing as well as the staff, food and our guides. I would recommend it to anyone planning a trip to Kenya.

Assisting with the celebrations, Fergie and Jennifer Hudson headed over to the New York Stock Exchange for the 100 Year Anniversary of Brown Shoe Company's public status on Wednesday (April 23).
Striking a few poses at 4 World Trade Center, the singing gals looked amazing in their sexy getups.
Taking a break from her motherly duties, Fergie headed to the 2014 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival on Saturday (April 12).

Showing the world just what she and her little guy do while daddy's at work, Stacy "Fergie" Ferguson posted an adorable snapshot featuring herself and baby Axl playing dress up!
Sporting some tough-guy duds, the "Barracuda" singer and her little man wore black biker threads and threatening shades, while Fergie also threw on some scary biker spikes.
Wishing mommy the best on her big day, Baby Axl Jack Duhamel posed in a cute Instagram photo, holding a sign that says, "Happy Birthday Mommy!!!," held by daddy, Josh Duhamel.
Fergie celebrated her 39th birthday today (March 27), and how better to ring in one more year, than with her man and 7-month-old son?
Channeling a little bit of Steven Tyler, Fergie arrived back at LAX airport on a flight from Washington, D.C. on Friday (March 21).
The Black Eyed Peas frontwoman wore a white jacket, black patterned scarf, and zebra-printed pants as she rushed home to reunite with baby Axl.

Amendment II: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." Life Member NRA Life Member NAHC Former President of the ECPT (Eifel Combat Pistol Team)
My pistols, however, I always kept by me. Jesse James
The Apex kit is a must have in the M&P pistols. Out of the box the triggers suck!!! I have two ( 9c and full size 40 ) and both have the apex kit. I have also installed three others for friends and they fell in love with theirs after the upgrade. S&W should buy their triggers parts from apex, or maybe make a Apex Tactical pistol. They already make the Viking why not one more.
Oh BTW, my next MP mod will be night sights, but I got to get her broken in first.
Yeah I'd say the trigger. I shoot mine fine but dry firing is annoying with that gritty sandy dirty chunky feeling trigger pull. Its like there's rocks inside the pistol. I even slightly grinded and polished the trigger bar and that didn't work. Made it a little better but holy crap. How could S&W keep selling these pistols without changing that nasty grit in the trigger pull????
spit hell fire
I would recommend the duty kit for carry. The competition kit lowers the pull to scary light.
I don't need No stinking signature.

Held by: | London Metropolitan Archives: City of London, not available at The National Archives |
Language: | English |
Custodial history: |
These records were deposited in the Greater London Record Office on 28 November 1991 (Acc 2991). Although some volumes and documents are closely related to records included in the main deposit of the archives of the Family Welfare Association (formerly known as the Charity Organisation Society), particularly the minutes of the Grants Committee 1946-1964 (ref. A/FWA/C/A/53/001-006 and records of Charities associated with the Family Welfare Association (ref. A/FWA/C/G/01-06), as this deposit forms a coherent group originating from the Grants Department, it has been decided to keep it together and to catalogue it as Class J. |
Administrative History: |
In October 1969 the terms of reference of the Grants Committee were defined as follows (A/FWA/C/J/01/001) 1. a) To consider all applications for grants and pensions from funds under the control of the Council and to have power to authorise grants from such funds not exceeding £250 in any 12 months on any individual case, the initial grant not to exceed £200. b) To make recommendations when required to trustees of funds not controlled by the Council. c) To make recommendations to the Executive Committee, through the Head of the Case-Work Department, on all cases where authority is required for grants exceeding the amounts specified in (a) and in cases where a pension is awarded for the first time. d) To review from time to time the policy regarding the administration of the trusts concerned and to make recommendations through the Head of the Casework Department to the Executive Committee as they think necessary. |

The First Presbyterian Church and Lewis Pintard House is a pair of adjacent historic buildings in downtown New Rochelle, New York, USA. The church and its adjoining manse, the Pintard House, are on a 3-acre (1.2 ha) lot.[1][3] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[2]
The First Presbyterian Church had its origins as the French Church formed by New Rochelle's early Huguenot settlers. The church is a Colonial revival structure with granite quoins, designed by John Russell Pope, architect of the Jefferson Memorial. Completed in 1929, it replaced the congregation's first church, which had been destroyed by fire.[1]
Adjacent to the church building is the Pintard House, one of New Rochelle's oldest remaining houses. It was constructed in part by Alexander Allaire sometime before 1710. In 1765 it became the home of a prominent New York City merchant named Pierre Vallade who came to New Rochelle on his retirement. After Vallade died in 1770, his widow married Lewis Pintard, whose name came to be associated with the house. Pintard was a local merchant and Revolutionary War patriot who was appointed by the Continental Congress to provide assistance to American prisoners held in the City of New York during British control. The Pintard House was moved to its current location in 1928.[1][3][4]

Harrisburg 3, Binghamton 1
Mark Cohoon didn't have his best stuff yet turned in a gritty performance which was good enough to win, but good fortune simply didn't come his way. Cohoon is a thinking pitcher who maximizes his stuff to out smart opposing hitters. Pitch location is a huge part of the winning Cohoon pitching formula, but the B-Met lefty had difficulty spotting his pitches early in the contest. Even so, Cohoon carried a shutout into the Harrisburg fifth.
Senator shortstop Ricky Hague led off the fifth working a 7-pitch at bat lining the final pitch, a 2-2 off speed delivery, just inside the right field foul line into the corner for a triple. Jerad Head pinch hit and lofted a lazy fly to B-Met rightfielder Cesar Puello, which was not deep enough to plate Hogue. The Senators took a 1-0 lead when Brian Goodman grounded a single just past the B-Met infield. In what turned out to be a critical defensive lapse, Cohoon had Goodman picked off, but the B-Mets allowed him to escap...

When a girl falls in love with the man she believes can give her the traditional life she desires, she sacrifices everything to make her dreams come true.
Brad has it all. He is handsome, popular, and charismatic. Who could resist his many charms? In desperate pursuit of the normal life she believes Brad can give to her, she tries her best to be everything he wants— a devoted wife, lover, and mother—but it is never enough. For a decade, she devotes every moment of every day to his happiness. Slowly, she realizes that in addition to the loss of her youth, she has also sacrificed much more to maintain the illusion of a perfect marriage.
After drastically altering her life just to be near him, she starts to see through his gossamer-thin promises. But try as she might to hold her head up as evidence of Brad's moral defects mounts, her sense of self weakens. Unaware of how deeply she is being damaged and how blatantly she has been deceived, she must make a choice. Will she abandon her fantasy of the traditional nuclear family so she can reclaim her long-forgotten self-worth? Or will she continue to languish at the hands of a toxic man?
She is a simple girl who just wanted something better. And despite it all, her journey is one filled with surprisingly sharp humor, raw honesty— and optimism.

After working as a freelance journalist writing on design for 17 years, I stepped over to graphic design agency Koeweiden Postma early in 2007. The agency works on big corporate identity projects, but feels great social resposibility as well. So they asked me to start a label for social design which we called Because. So far we've done several projects in the field of integration and sustainability. We're convinced that our skills in the field of corporate design and branding can be instrumental in improving our world.

Size and Quality
Twinkling Hearts Save the Date Magnets The size and quality of these were exactly what we were looking for. I love how they came with the envelope as most places you have to pay extra for that. I would definitely recommend this product.

Shipped with care
Botanical Grace Save the Date Magnets I received the magnets for my save the dates and they come in a nice box and are wrapped with care ! The magnets themselves were very nice and were what I expected. The only thing that could be a little better would be the clarity and size of the pictures.
Great product, pcitures chosen look great, good size
Signs of Love Save the Date Magnets We loved our magnets for save the dates! They came out great and looked exactly as they did on the screen!
Save the dates
Twinkling Hearts Save the Date Magnets I ordered save the date magnets and can't say a bad thing. Only thing I can say is, its not listed that envelopes automatically come with the magnets (at least I didn't see that) so I purchased them thinking I of course need them, but I didn't need too. So I kind of wasted $20. But overall so cute. :)

That would change \\machine\dir\file to /machine/dir/file which wasn't what the original poster wanted (the way I read the question anyway). Update Sorry jeroenes must've posted at the same moment. BTW, my first take was to agree with you. I hadn't even considered adding it. It was only while replying that I saw it wouldn't work.

New Product
New: The Hawkeye Flight System - OSD, attitude, map, advanced autopilot, data logging
Applied Avionics is pleased to announce the most advanced OSD, autopilot, and integrated telemetry system available, the Hawkeye.
The Hawkeye brings RC and FPV flying into the 21st century with integrated features never seen before in this class of system. The Hawkeye features: - IMU based synthetic horizon OSD - Map with ground track (heading) marker - Pitot-static system (airspeed and altitude) - Long range FHSS radio transceiver - 40Hz data logging capability - Advanced autopilot with airspeed hold, climb/descend to altitude, turn-to-heading, fly to waypoint, orbit on waypoint, and failsafe. All in a 3.5x2.7x0.8 inch package. The Hawkeye replaces your traditional 72MHz or 2.4GHz RC gear with a more modern, more powerful, FHSS transceiver that receives pilot commands and downlinks telemetry all in one unit. Raw, unedited videos are available in the videos section at www.appliedavionics.net A tutorial video describing autopilot operation and other features will be available shortly. The Hawkeye User's Manual is available for download in the downloads section. The Hawkeye is the result of several years of development and is available NOW in limited quantities to a select number of beta testers. If you are interested in participating in this offer you may read more about it in the Hawkeye System section or email firstname.lastname@example.com directly. nick, Applied Avionics |

Using the Hawkeye with 900MHz Video Gear
Like you said these radios perform a dual purpose, to send up pilot commands and downlink OSD telemetry, all in one unit. Impressive as this is they are not available in any other frequency. However, it is very likely that you can use your 900MHz video gear anyway. Simply use one of the higher channels on your video Tx so that it does not compete with the Hawkeye's transmissions on the lower part of the band. See the FAQ page for more details. --nick |

I think legally the system is restricted to US Customers because it contains a waypoint autopilot, well, I know the Attopilot has that issue. It is also one of the reasons why the RVOSD doesn't do waypoint navigation. Not 100% sure as I have not looked in to this a great deal, only know about the Attopilot problems with overseas customers. |
Jan 02, 2009, 08:22 PM | |
I believe the waypoint feature only functions as a return to home.
It does have the ability to alter the course from the ground in flight to a point on the on-screen map. If I'm wrong and you can preprogram a set of waypoints that would make it more interesting if less exportable. -Dave |

Upon further thought, I realized the tele unit uses the trainer port. I wonder how to use a head tracker since it also uses the trainer port? |

Hi, What kind of preformance are you getting with the stock motor??
Ive always upgraded to brushless straight away, is the easystar in stock form able to gain height without any problems with the extra weight? How do you exactly program waypoints into the autopilot? Can it be done via the overlay in the ground station and then sent up to the uav while its in the air? Can we have some more info on the groundstation, what kind of antennas does it use ect. What kind of range are you getting with the 900mhz gear ? 5km ? Regards, Max |

Do you mean it went through the entire install process or that it stopped right after the DVD got to it's splash screen?So, I ran the md5sum and the iso that I downloaded turned out OK. I burned the iso again using the slowest speed. I rebooted the laptop and it went thru the splash screen. It then ejected the DVD and asked me to hit OK. Once I did that, the PC rebooted and started in windows 7.
I might try the 12.4 version next.
