Comments about Intense Tire Systems Intense Tires 909 26" FR MTB Tire:
I bought these tires with the best of intentions. Hoping so much for these tires to work out but they didn't. The beads slip on the rim even when the tire/tube is pumped up to the allowed maximum pressure. I had two tube valve stems torn off within an hour of riding due to the rim and the beads slipping. A failure investigation revealed that the tire rubber compound on the beads are as slippery as teflon. So the tire gripping the rim will never be a possibility. These tires are a bad design or bad quality control.

Jake White will fly to Japan with Jaco van der Westhuyzen in two weeks time to hold negotiations with the NEC Green Rockets.
Die Burger on Thursday reported that the Bok coach would be making the trip in the hope of getting permission from the Green Rockets for Van der Westhuyzen to play Super 14 rugby for a South African franchise.
Earlier this month Van der Westhuizen was rumoured to be joining the Stormers, who are in desperate need of a quality No 10, but the player is still locked into a contract with his Japanese club.
"According to my contract with NEC, I am only allowed to play for the Springboks," Van der Westhuizen told Herbert Pretorius. "But I'm optimistic that they won't stand in my way of playing Super 14 rugby."
The Bok flyhalf, who missed the end of year tour with a knee injury, is expecting to be fully fit in six weeks time. "My rehabilitation has gone well," he said.
Van der Westhuyzen was dropped during the course of last season, with Andre Pretorius taking ownership of the green and gold No 10 jersey. The NEC pivot would greatly increase his chances of regaining his position if he played Super 14 rugby – a competition of a far higher standard than Japan's Top League.

Glacier Peak boys charge back, but fall short to Beach
Grizzlies claw back from 19-point deficit, but lose to No. 1 Rainier Beach 69-59
It was a brave effort and a much better result than a year ago when the Vikings coasted to a 36-point win at the same stage of the state playoffs, but No. 9 Glacier Peak succumbed again to Rainier Beach 69-59.
Grizzlies coach Brian Hunter still beamed after the game.
"To be down 19 in the third and bring it back to two in the third quarter," Hunter said. "There's not many teams that could do that against a team that is arguably the best team in the state regardless of classification."
Beach defeated one of the top 4A teams, Bothell, during the regular season and only matched up with GP Saturday thanks to a minor upset loss to Lakeside in the District 2 title game.
The Vikings looked like the defending state champs early, building a 44-25 lead early in the third quarter after starting the half on a 6-0 scoring spurt.
After the teams traded buckets for a few minutes, Zach Pederson -- the Glacier Peak all-time leading scorer and rebounder -- hit a pair of free throws to jumpstart a surprising 16-0 GP spurt in the final 3:42 of the third quarter.
Dreu Vader, who shot 11-for-12 from the free throw line and finished with 18 points, closed the quarter with a steal and layin at the buzzer that stirred the Grizzlies students into a frenzy behind the visitor bench.
"We did something which most people would think was crazy ? we did some trapping and we tried to pressure them," said Hunter, who used just a seven-man rotation for much of the night against an RB team that went 10 deep. "If nothing else it freed up our kids to think, 'You know what? Lets go play' and I think that's a big part of it, getting over that hurdle of: Can we play with these guys?"
Shaqquan Aaron knocked much of the wind out of the Grizzlies full blown sails three minutes into the fourth quarter hitting a deep 3 to push the lead back to 55-48 -- it never got closer. The junior, a verbal committ to Louisville, led the balanced Vikings with 15 points on 4-of-7 shooting. Four other Vikings had at least 8 points, while only five Grizzlies scored.
Ultimately, the inside game was the difference and the Vikings were allowed too many offensive rebounds. Ranier Beach outrebounded the Grizzlies 36-30 overall and 18-9 on the offensive end. Elijah Foster (eight points) and Jordan King (13) both had 10 rebounds. Pederson (15 points) was best for GP with nine rebounds.
"This game was won inside, period," Bethea said. "As far as I'm concerned."
Ramsey Rosales hit four 3s and led all scorers with 19 points. He tried to pull the Grizzlies back after Pederson fouled out in the fourth quarter, but the Vikings held GP at arm's length and advanced to play in the Tacoma Dome next week.
"Glacier Peak was a team that wanted to get to state," Bethea said. "They came out and they played hard. I give them all the credit."
It was the last hurrah for six GP seniors, including Vader, Rosales, Pederson and Mitchl Pohrman who have been playing together since fourth grade.
"We competed," Pederson said "The end of the third quarter; I'll never forget that ? It was a lot of fun."
It's not the end of competitive basketball for Pederson and Vader who expect to play somewhere in college next season, but it is for two-year starter Austin Kiser, bench-player Russell Anderson and Pohrman, whom Hunter called, "the best defender in school history".
The loss of Pederson will especially be felt by the GP staff, but not for the most obvious reason.
"He's the most humble selfless teammate that I've ever been around," Hunter said. "He's never once tried to bring any glory or spotlight on himself ever. I'll miss that with him."

The Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine's Bradenton, Fla., campus held its fourth commencement ceremony on Sunday, June 5 at the Manatee County Convention and Civic Center, and for the first time graduated a class of pharmacists.
For more photos of LECOM Bradenton's commencement, click here.
On the authority of the Board of Trustees, LECOM President and CEO John M. Ferretti, DO conferred degrees to 145 medical students and 77 pharmacy students.
|Wayne Krueger, Ph.D., receives the Distinguished Citizen Award from LECOM President and CEO John Ferretti, DO.
Dr. Ferretti also made a special presentation of the President's Distinguished Citizen Award to LECOM assistant dean of pre-clinical education Wayne Krueger, Ph.D. Dr. Krueger has spent over 40 years as an anatomy instructor at medical colleges in North Carolina, Iowa, Pennsylvania and Florida.
The year's commencement ceremony held special meaning for the inaugural graduating class for the School of Pharmacy.
"This (pharmacy) class has a special bond," says Alvana Nicaj, Pharm.D. "Our classmates were family for many of us during pharmacy school."
Erika Olson of Bradenton was a part of the graduating class. She is a graduate of Lakewood Ranch High School, located one block from LECOM.
Vice President of Academic Affairs and Dean of the School of Pharmacy Hershey S. Bell, M.D. led the Oath of the Pharmacist, which calls upon the new Doctors of Pharmacy to apply the knowledge they've gained for the welfare of humanity, the relief of suffering and to assure optimal outcomes for their patients.
"On behalf of our superb faculty and staff, it is a great honor to graduate our first class of Doctors of Pharmacy in Bradenton," said Dr. Bell. "These future leaders will impact their communities by providing high quality patient-centered care and by furthering the LECOM mission of providing care in the spirit of the osteopathic philosophy that serves as the foundation for all of LECOM's activities."
|Erika Olson of Bradenton, Fla. receives her doctor of pharmacy diploma.
Associate Dean of Academic Affairs Robert George, DO, presented the candidates to receive the Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine Degrees. Dr. George led the new osteopathic physicians as they took their professional oath that calls upon them to be mindful of the great responsibility they are taking to preserve the health and life of their patients.
Medical school graduates Douglas and William Pokorny did not have much time to celebrate becoming osteopathic physicians. With their diplomas in hand, the brothers headed to their respective residencies in the U.S. Navy. William began residency at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Md., while Douglas started his residency at the U.S. Naval Hospital Medical Center in Portsmouth, Va.
LECOM medical graduates now begin osteopathic internships or residencies or go into specialized medical programs. Pharmacy graduates will get jobs working in community pharmacies, hospital or clinical pharmacies, or long-term care facilities. Others will pursue specialized pharmacy residency programs.
Nearly 20 percent of the School of Pharmacy Class of 2011 has matched into post-graduate residency programs with others going into retail, community or health system pharmacy. The average residency match rate for U.S. Schools of Pharmacy is 16 percent.
"From Day 1, our administration and faculty has emphasized post-graduate opportunities to our students," says associate dean for the School of Pharmacy Sunil Jambhekar, Ph.D. "By participating in residencies, these students will train and become experts in their chosen fields."
The Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine, LECOM School of Dental Medicine and LECOM School of Pharmacy offer innovative and affordable education in osteopathic medicine, dentistry and pharmacy. From campuses in Erie, Pennsylvania, Greensburg, Pennsylvania and Bradenton, Florida, LECOM provides student-centered pathways to prepare the next generation of healthcare professionals. Prepare yourself for medicine as your life's profession.

Dr. Ogbru received his Doctorate in Pharmacy from the University of the Pacific School of Pharmacy in 1995. He completed a Pharmacy Practice Residency at the University of Arizona/University Medical Center in 1996.

GENERIC NAME: tacrine
BRAND NAME: Cognex (Discontinued in the USA)
DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Tacrine is an oral medication used to treat patients with Alzheimer's disease. Tacrine is in a class of drugs called cholinesterase inhibitors that also includes rivastigmine (Exelon), donepezil (Aricept), and galantamine (Razadyne - formerly Reminyl). Cholinesterase inhibitors inhibit (block) the action of acetylcholinesterase, the enzyme responsible for the destruction of acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is one of several neurotransmitters in the brain, chemicals that nerve cells use to communicate with one another. Reduced levels of acetylcholine in the brain are believed to be responsible for some of the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. By blocking the enzyme that destroys acetylcholine, rivastigmine increases the concentration of acetylcholine in the brain, and this increase is believed to be responsible for the improvement in thinking seen with tacrine. Tacrine was approved by the FDA in 1993.
PRESCRIPTION: Yes
GENERIC AVAILABLE: No
PREPARATIONS: Capsules: 10, 20, 30, and 40 mg.
STORAGE: Capsules should be stored at room temperature, 15-30 C (59-86 F).
Report Problems to the Food and Drug Administration

Men's Seersucker Pajamas 5 5
Incredible product! I've searched for years to find "REAL" pajamas for my invalid father. You sent me a catalogue... and there was the pajama I had been searching for. The fabric is amazing. The generous fit is perfect. Thank you for helping my dad have the type of pajama that he truly likes. October 24, 2013
Seersucker no good! I bought 2 pairs of pajamas for my 95 year old dad. He loved the first pair that weren't seersucker, but he didn't like the seersucker pajamas. They were not wash and wear. They needed ironing after washing. I won't buy those again. October 19, 2013
my husband loves it! My husband holds on to his clothes for years. He is also very particular about quality. He wants crisp cool cotton and no trace of polyester. When his old pajamas ripped apart due to wear, I checked The Vermont Country Store because I remembered the seer sucker pajamas and thought they would meet his needs. It turned out he loved the pajama so much that I ordered a second one to last for years. I think these are well made, and he said that it "feels very good to wear them." We ae both very happy to have bought these pajamas. July 27, 2013
Very Comfortable and Sleep Well My wife purchased a pair of the pajamis before I did. She loved her's so well I asked her to order me a pair. May 6, 2013
Wonderful fabric!! I purchased your seersucker PJs last year for partner and I, and I can't tell you how much we enjoy them. Seersucker is hard to find in my area, let alone PJs!! Very comfortable with no ironing. I would like to see Vermont Country Store carry more seersucker items for men, such as shirts, pants, etc. Thanks!! March 17, 2013

which perfume 1- have better projection ? 2 - which scent female love it ?
Interesting thoughts Hammy. The sense of smell is so primal! Maybe we need to pay more attention the people who smell really great to us. I can think of two dating instances where I just hated the guy's choice of fragrance & yep, we were very different people in the end.
No proven theories here...just an interesting thought.
which perfume 1- have better projection ? 2 - which scent female love it ?
If there were one or two female fragrances that you would LOVE to smell on a man, what would they be?

What do insomniac perfumers do to fall asleep? They count chypres!
I love Shalimar and hermes orange vert on a man but I would like to smell l'Aritisan VDR and Creed Ambre Canelle... maybe someday?
1. Asja by Fendi seems like it was created for a certain kind of subtly well-dressed, intelligent man. A great oriental for unisex wear, less obvious than Opium (but I like that feminine on confident men too).
2. Bandit!
- - - Updated - - -
Ok, so thinking of how vague and bland a description "well-dressed, intelligent man" was, I googled the phrase, found this:
No Asja or Bandit for him--he's too cuddly, but sounds like his lady has both.
Burberry Brit and Mitsuoko.

*sniff* hmm:
Currently smelling from Asja edp one hour in:
Soft oriental--verging on floriental/classic non-girly floral, dry fruits/honey/light pipesmoke that comes and goes, and mostly a clove/carnation drying down to the oriental genre's version of a skin scent. It's a little potpourri or winelike and certainly wintery. It gets described as similar to Serge Lutens Arabie, which I can see, but that one is harsh while Asja is strong but whispery and not as daring as Arabie.
Most are either really into the bottle and presentation of Asja or really repulsed by it. Its look seems like a riff on the extremity of "orientalism" in perfume history, kind of old Hollywood fine line between costumey silliness and elegance. For any more masculine type who would care to wear it, the spray edt (or rarer large spray edp) in the gold and black wood-like ricebowl bottle would probably smell more like a men's scent applied lightly. But if one is the type of guy who will wear edp (really this edp is difficult to apply from the tiny black flacon): best to avoid the mini black flacon edp that has black and gold stripes on the sextagonal box. Those were a promo batch, and mine had gone off due to the bad packaging and now smells weakly of soap. The plain no stripes red and black edp box with the same little black flacon inside smells better due to the packaging fitting better, likely. Those minis with the black rather than red caps seem best! Fendi's packaging was a bit inconsistent and confusing, but that's all perfume I guess ...

[B]Bal a Versailles[B]. And yes, Shalimar.
Like anomie et ivoire was saying, it would depend on the type of guy. The guy I'm refering to is the sweet tall man type.
Fille D'Eve, Habanita, Bal A Versailles, En Avion, Tabac Blond
Dans La Nuit Vers Le Jour Sans Adieu Je Reviens Vers Toi.
L'Heure Bleue or Bal a Versailles because I think they might be harder for a man to pull off. and though not as daring as BaV or LHB I could totally see a man in Vintage Antilope by Weil,
Though in a recent interview it has been said that my future husband prefers to go scentless,[I can fix that] though I spend hours dreaming up what delightful things I'd like to spray on him. I think he'd be so sexy in a really spicy,leathery, floral.

Parfum Sacre and women's Obsession.
My eldest son wears Shalimar. The chypre loveliness of Mitsouko would be outstanding on a confident man. I'm looking forward to smelling Brad Pitt in No 5. A boyfriend from my late teens/early 20s smelt fabulous in original Rochas Femme. Diorella is interchangeable with Eau Sauvage.
Musc Ravageur. No contest.
T.F. Tobacco Vanille.
Amouage, Reflection.
No, I am not black, yes, I am African.
the girl love scent ? pure havane ? m7 ? la nuit perfume ?
I know a womens taste in fragrances can differ from there male counterparts. So what would you like the man in your life to wear?? How would you want your man to smell? Include scents for each occassion...summer, winter, day and evening.
i do like the gender bending so
for sure nothing too butch, or aquatic
in general i like warm things oudth , chypres but for men sure also flowers and some sweetness ,a bit animalic can (civet yes! )(but usually i prefer this more in women s perfume )but all depends on the total
my real favorite has vetiver, oakmoss,, lavender ivy and patchouli and amber it s very summery and put s me instantely in a good mood
my favourites on a man:
Dior Fahrenheit
Uomo? De Moschino.
Dior Homme Intense
Hello girls, I'm a 25 guy and I want to know your opinions on three fragrances.
I've sampled a lot and narrowed it down to only three I would like to have as my signature, just choose the one that makes you weak on the knees (or if you dislike them all, please say so too):
1. Carolina Herrera - 212 Men
2. Abercrombie & Fitch - Fierce
PS.: FIERCE is not popular at all where I live(no A&F stores in my country), so judge it only by the smell
3. Chanel - Allure Homme Sport
All three are very versatile in my opinion, and I could wear them all year.
Please, let me know which one is the best smell and compliment getter!
My choice is easy: Carolina Herrera 212 Men. Wonderful fragrance. Attractive, versatile and not very common. Good all around.
Abercrombie&Fitch - IMO is generic, nothing special. Many folks like it.....but, very common. Not a bad thing, just...rather blah.
Chanel Allure Homme Sport. Why not just Allure? I've smelled Allure on a few men and it smells divine!. Allure Sport, not so much.
That's my opinion, since you asked.
Thanks Lorien! Yes, I want sincere opinions like yours lol
Keep them coming girls, please
Oh, and about the original Allure...I don't know, I didn't care much for it. Not that appealing to me and I had the feeling that sometimes it's too strong.
I liked the sport version better.

my choice is La Nuit Le Parfum.
So there has been plenty of discussion of this on the male frag boards... but I thought I would take it to the source. Ladies, what fragrances do you ladies like to smell on a 30-40 something man and why?
I guess the reason I ask is that there is clearly a diverse age range on the boards and as professional 36 year old man I was curious. I definitely feel like some fragrances are more appealing to a younger crowd just like there are some 80s powerhouses that I feel "old mannish" for a lack of a better term (this is not meant be offensive).
When it comes to fashion, I have to admit, I cringe when I see men my age wearing True Religion jeans... that's just not right. Then again, I don't feel comfortable in tweed either. So clearly, when people say... anyone can wear anything... I get that sentiment but...
Top notes of... sweat, gasoline, motor oil; a heart of deer musk and gunpowder, resting on a base of sex and testosterone... Mandom.
I can tell you that Yves Saint Laurent L'Homme is a definite win for me. It's a very sexy, warm, inviting scent that works wonderfully with my husband's chemistry. That's the key. You have to find something that works with YOU, because what my husband wears might smell different on you. I also love John Varvatos and Jean Paul Gaultier, too.
Tnx ............
Tnx ............
This question was asked in the men's forum, so, I thought I would give it a go in the ladies forum. In your opinion, what's the drop-dead sexiest fragrance a man can wear? The most arousing, mesmerizing, heart-thumping perfume a man can wear.
Ladies what drives you wild?
I'm not OLD...I'm VINTAGE!
For me, it's the association with the particular man that makes the fragrance sexy, not the other way around. However, my taste in men's scents is like my taste in men: unapologetically masculine, classy, but still possessing a few rough edges, which brings us to the good old-fashioned aromatic fougere genre. Still looking for the perfect one for DH.
My recent love is Jules - masculine chypre perfection. It just smells so darn good.
Serge Lutens Musc Koublai Khan - this one figures in many women's fantasies.
Arabian Oud's Black Musk - a really, really big primal fragrance. I haven't smelled it on a man yet, but I'd love to! Tmn, this is a bedroom fragrance...
Body Kouros - no question about it...
eden <3 <3 <3
I love it. For me, it's perfect for summer days/nights out.
The three frags you've mentioned, are to me at least, so starkly different, which is great, as it means your tastes are quite varied when it comes to men's frags.
I own DHI too, but I rarely fine an appropriate setting to wear it. To me it's a sexy, calm, intimate frag, but it would be interesting to know a woman's perspective on what you specifically like about it.
Who is better,beautiful,sexiest and who want to feel a man?
Costume National -Pour Homme
Costume National- Scent Intense
Im sick of reading "a scent wont do anything its personality and game" bs, everybody is aware! This is a fragrance website, people just want to know which fragrances get appreciated generally universally..

my fiance said De nuit was this type many time before, guess she was right cause shes now preggo
Almost anything with patchouli in it.
According to my 17 year old nephew the girls at his school love Axe body spray. (Though as his aunt I'd love to take him to Nordstrom or a niche shop and challenge him to get off the popular scent bus to change that.)
Fahrenheit by Dior is VERY nice...but regardless of what you wear, the trick is not to use too much of it

Tsar by VanCleef & Arpels aftershave (the original; NOT the one in the ribbed bottle) makes me want to jump your bones

Tsar by VanCleef & Arpels (the original; NOT the one in the ribbed bottle) takes the prize. A close second is Fahrenheit by Dior. Aqua Velva (!) is also nice-but regardless which NOT TOO MUCH OF IT
- - - Updated - - -
Tsar by VanCleef & Arpels is it-the original-not the one in the ribbed bottle
There are two scents that I totally go gaga for. First and foremost, it's the original Drakkar. Not Noir. The one in the navy and silver box. The REAL Drakkar.
Second is the somewhat cheap One Man Show. This one is more emotional than anything else - so I'm afraid it's not so much a "female" thing as it is a "personal history" thing.
Old-juice "Obsession" totally made me bonkers. Seriously so. New juice - not so much.
The original KL Homme (the one with the lapis frame) - O.M.G.!!!!!!!!
I do, of the moderns, find the original Baldessarini very alluring and sexy.
I'm not sure I am the type of woman you want to attract, though. I'm kinda difficult and bitchy.
Veni, Vidi, Visa.
what do women on here think of Pure Malt
Ormond Jayne Man.
i love love love the issey miyake for men! its not overpowering, its subtle but it really stays forever! its like a spell that sticks in your system and its like you want to smell him more! its sensual, its divine!
what do women here think on silver mountain water?
do you like when men wear it? would you wear it yourself?
can't assure you of tearing off the cloth but yeah this perfume will make impression. Being a girl i like this perfume. I have even gifted this to my buddy. it is Agua Brava By Antonio Puig. It's generally not available on physical stores.

Bleu de Chanel
Hugo Boss bottled
I want to smell vintage Chanel No. 5 on a man. I don't know why. It registers as feminine, but only due to cultural norms.
Also, some of Geo. Trumper's shaving soaps (which I haven't smelled yet).
Cedar/spice/vetiver naturals drive me crazy on a man. No dousing though, that's awful.
I haven't smelled Womanity yet. Maybe I should ask the sweet fella at Sephora try it on for me.

My favorites:
Dior Homme
Dolce & Gabbana The One for Men
MK High Intensity Cologne Spray for Men (never would've found this one if my stepmom hadn't given it to my husband for Christmas one year. I was surprised I liked it so much!)
Bvlgari Black
For women's fragrances I'd like to smell on a man:
...I thought there would be more, but that's all I'm coming up with at the moment.
What do insomniac perfumers do to fall asleep? They count chypres!
I owe it all to my late mother's way with words, to say nothing of her way with a spoonful of this or that...
What do insomniac perfumers do to fall asleep? They count chypres!
Any chance of getting a woman's opinion of Fahrenheit on a man?
Anybody have a sample of Martin Margiela Untitled or Untitled L'Eau? I'm dying to smell these and I've got lots of great niche samples to swap!
"Follow your nose. It always knows." -- Toucan Sam
To my knowledge, the only 3 scents any guys I've ever dated have worn have been Acqua di Gio (high school boyfriends, although I still enjoy a whiff of it, I'd probably roll my eyes at a guy who wore that now), Polo Black (early 20s, I found it hyper-sexy, although the guy himself was hyper-sexy), and John Varvatos (the latter worn by my horrid ex-husband and I'd probably run away from any guy I ever smelled wearing that). I will always love the smell of Old Spice on a man. Original Polo will always remind me of my Dad.
I wold love to date a guy really into fragrance! I'll keep dreaming. The guys around me generally fall into the Axe or Chrome categories. Give me a break.
This is owr first date. I met her on a dating site (RomanceCompass). Besides it is her birthday!
What perfume to give her?
I choose between the Aqua Di Gio and Creed's Millesime Imperial ...

I was perched on the fence, whether to say yes to staying home to work, and no to Champagne. And, well, I guess I don't need to tell you that I simply could not fight the battle of the bubbly. And so I headed out for a quick day and night in Reims, where Champagne is made.
Fortunately the city of Reims is just a quick 45 minutes from Paris and I was invited to the region to eat, drink, and, well…I won't
tell you what else I did. But it involved a long, hot, much-appreciated bath, and a rest on the adjacent canapé.

The third form of heat transfer is radiation, whereby a hot object emits infrared radiation at the speed of light. The radiation is absorbed by anything nearby that is cooler than the hot object and the absorption causes temperature to rise, without heating the air in between the hot and cold objects. You can feel heat radiation when you hold your hand near your stovetop burner or electric heater. In your house, heat radiation is often lost through the wall immediately behind a radiator if that wall is not insulated.

GPS Troubleshooting: The CAPN does not support COM 10 or higher (pre v8.3.20a)
Please note that versions of The CAPN prior to v8.3.20a do not support COM ports greater than 9.
We have since lifted this restriction with the release of The CAPN v8.3.20a.
Please click here to download this update.
Until you are fully updated to the latest version of The CAPN, and your USB-to-Serial adapter or other GPS device has specified a port of 10 or higher, you can usually use Device Manager to reset its Port Settings.
To reset the Port Settings:
- Open Device Manager from the Control Panel.
- Click on the + next to Ports (COM & LPT) to reveal all established COM Ports.
- Right click on the listing of your GPS or Serial - USB adapter and choose Properties.
- Click on the Port Settings tab, then the Advanced button.
- In the lower left of this window you will see a field with a selectable COM Port number.
- Change the existing number to one that is between COM1 - COM9 and that is open.
- Click OK, and then OK again. Close Device Manager.
Open The CAPN again, and press Find GPS.
For more information or assistance, please contact the manufacturer of the USB-to-Serial adapter, Multiplexer, USB GPS, or other device that is setting the COM port to the higher value.

Hand of Protection - short term utility buff cast on friendly target
Hand of Freedom - short term utility buff cast on friendly target
Hand of Salvation - short term utility buff cast on friendly target
Hand of Sacrifice - short term utility buff cast on friendly target
Hand of Reckoning - taunt cast on enemy
One of these is not like the others. Blizzard, please change the name to something more appropriate.
(Just to be clear, Blessing of Reckoning, Seal of Reckoning, and Judgement of Reckoning are also inappropriate names.)

Totally agree; it's got nothing to do with the talent, Reckoning, which is also confusing.

I'm holding out for Holy Righteous Hand of Blessed Reckoning Light. Though they would have to work "Seal" in there somewhere.

Make holy shock trainable and add a taunt effect, or make the taunt effect a talent way down in the prot tree. In fact, they could something with ret as well...like a health leech or something to pair with seal of blood. I like the idea of having abilities trainable, but customized via the talet trees.

Honestly, when I read it, I thought we were getting a new temporary attack speed buff that we could cast on others.
You know, something like a single target, limited duration, shorter CD BL/Heroism.
Anyway, agreed, this isn't a hand spell.

Yes, seriously. Given the universally negative reaction to the current confusing name, I have a hard time believing that no one in Blizzard thinks that it's a bad idea. Are they just putting us on?
I vote for synonyms of taunt. 'Provoke' seems good, for example.

Protection, Freedom, Salvation, Sacrifice = Nonoffensive buffs that dont do any damage. (Also acts/words of being Righteous or do unselfish things. Reckoning = Offensive act and is not similar to any protection or nonoffensive "hands". There is nothing wrong about the name. (If you know what "reckoning" means.)

It doesn't make much sense to name it a "Hand" spell, its no where near the other hand spells on my bars.
Also, righteous defence says in the tooltip "...commanding up to 3 enemies..."
but this says "Taunts the target"
Paladins strike me as people who don't "taunt" but "command" their enemies.

Hello Everyone.I hope you have been doing great.I wanted to share with you my experience of finding housing on campus.I know for many of the incoming graduate students,this is one big issue.I was able to take care of this before I arrived on campus and everything worked smoothly for me.I used basic tools like google map and the university housing website for this.I will tell you how.Let me tell you though,I am very lazy and I wanted to be somewhere really close to campus so I don't have to wake up early in the morning:)
When you accept an admission offer from the university,you are provided with an option to set up an internet access account on the university website.I would recommend to do it as soon as possible.It gives you access to a lot of resources on the campus portal.
The first step is to determine where you will be spending most of your time.You should check with your department website as where the main office is.If you are working in a lab,it will have a building address.
The second step is to login to the university housing website .This will take you to the housing and residential life and you could see more information about the on campus housing(Halls and dorms mostly).This link will take you to the off campus housing rentals.
You will be required to login using your university ID and password to access the system.Once you are inside,you will see this:
You can choose the type of unit,rent and neighborhood you want to live in.Its a good and credible way to start looking for options available in different areas around the campus.
Coming back to my experience,I used google map to find directions between the building where I was supposed to spend most of my time on campus and the places that I liked.I selected a place that was 5 blocks away from my campus and was on bus lines.Just go to google map and click on get directions.Enter the university building address and name,and enter the address from the listing you like most.Check if buses run between those two locations frequently.For example,if I want to go to Carlson school of management from my location,this is how it will look like:
.You will get an idea how far is the closes bus stop from your place and if you will be able to commute comfortably from your home to be to the place where you will be found the most!
The rent is variable.For a furnished place closer to campus,you can expect to pay anything from $500-$800!The housing away from campus is cheaper.Your ultimate choice will depend on your preference.And remember,it is always advised to start early.Places around campus go as early as April for the coming fall leases,so just don't wait until the last moment to get the right place and deal.
Stay well and let me know if you need any help:)

State legislators listened to wishes and concerns of New Bern aldermen Tuesday evening while having dinner with them at City Hall.
N.C. Reps. Norman Sanderson, District 2; John Bell, District 10; George Graham, District 12; and Michael Speciale, District 3, were invited to New Bern by aldermen to get acquainted with the needs and hopes of the city.
Alderman Denny Bucher said the economy of New Bern and more jobs are a major focus for him.
"One of my concerns is transportation," Bucher said. "(N.C.) 17 is a huge albatross for us right now — going north and south."
Without its completion it was restricting growth in Eastern North Carolina, Bucher said.
Taxes were also on Bucher's list, from gasoline to personal and corporate taxes North Carolinians are facing some of the highest in the country and it is causing businesses to locate in South Carolina instead of North Carolina.
In 12 years, Bucher said he has not seen any major, sizable industry locate in Eastern North Carolina.
As a businessman, Bucher wanted to know what could be done to bring industry and a strong economy to the area.
Alderman Bernard White said he would like to see more industry recruited to the area providing higher paying jobs.
"We want the city to grow, and it will grow, but we don't want it to grow with just senior citizens," he said. "We want to keep out youths here."
Higher paying jobs would keep youths in the area so they would not have to move "inland" to find them, White said.
Alderman Johnnie Ray Kinsey said he felt the state is losing "a great deal' because of high taxes and that needed to be corrected. He said he would also like to see experts, like the Army Corps of Engineers, come in and find a solution to the flooding problem.
Another big concern is having strong communication between all the different organizations, local and state governments, Kinsey said.
"I feel it would make a big difference in our state government," he said.
It is not about Democrats and Republicans; it's about individuals, Kinsey said.
Alderman Dana Outlaw said he thought the Board of Aldermen has done a great job promoting business.
"But we need your help," he told the four delegates.
Mostly that help is needed it getting control of the high price of electricity the city and customers have to pay to ElectriCities.
The cost of electricity in New Bern is overwhelming, Outlaw said.
Alderman Sabrina Bengel agreed with Kinsey, saying one of the most important things the board could do was open communications with state delegates.
Bengel's concerns were over blighted property in the city. She said she wanted more teeth in legislation that would discourage property owners from letting their property get overgrown and run down and then using the city as a lawn service.
She also agreed with Outlaw about ElectriCities.
"We joined with good intentions as a way of bringing small towns together," she said. "But all we're doing is paying for big salaries."
She also asked for continued support of Tryon Palace.
Mayor Lee Bettis said New Bern is trying to "break down walls" for itself and the region. With the right infrastructure, the city was in a position to compete nationally for industry and jobs, he said.
One of the stumbling blocks is paying 33 to 40 percent more for electricity through ElectriCities, Bettis said.
"Eastern North Carolina needs to be utilized and we need to get from under the yoke of high taxes and high utilities," he said. "…If we work together, from Wilmington to Elizabeth City, we can create an economic super power in Eastern North Carolina."
An Eastern Carolina Coalition is being formed with representation from 20 coastal counties, the legislators said.
City manager, Mike Epperson, gave the delegates a list of goals the city is working toward from improving the city's financial health to transforming the Five Points commercial corridor, Duffyfield neighborhoods and other distressed areas of New Bern.
"Cities are not special interest groups," Epperson said. "We are your partners."
One area that has high potential to transform Eastern North Carolina and has not been tapped is fiber optics that could connect communities and provide economic development. New Bern has 75 miles of fiber optics that connects the city with colleges, resources and government entities, he said.
Graham said after the dinner, he thought it was a good meeting.
"We have to connect," he said. "We have to work together, and we are talking about putting together the Eastern Carolina Coalition, so we can work together as a team to try to advance issues for Eastern North Carolina. It's a wonderful idea, beautiful concept."
Sanderson said he knows New Bern and the other cities that make up ElectriCities are in "a stranglehold" and it is hard to overcome.
"Somebody made the comment, New Bern can do everything right and then because of this still end up on the losing end and that's not fair," Sanderson said. "…This is one of the things we have learned that is just not good."
Sanderson said state legislators are already looking at two things associated with tax reform that could mean big growth for North Carolina: eliminating personal income taxes and corporate income taxes.
"Now that's a big order," he said. "Can it be done? Yes, because other states have done it."
With the elimination of those two aggressive taxes, Sanderson said, there would be untold growth in North Carolina.
Florida is an example and potential model of a state without personal income taxes, Sanderson said.
Corporate taxes should be eliminated because what revenue the state takes in is about what it has to pay out in incentives, he said.
"The businesses that we have chosen (and presented with incentives) to come to North Carolina has not done that great," Sanderson said.
The elimination of the tax would give all businesses a fair playing field, he said.
Sanderson said he would love to see N.C. 17 completed, but even the Eastern Carolina Coalition being formed would only have five state representatives for the 20 coastal counties compared to five state representatives for just Wake County.
"So you see what we are against," Sanderson said. "We think we have infrastructure problems here, you've never seen infrastructure problems until you are on Interstate 40 trying to get into Raleigh at 7 a.m. in the morning."
Bell said he was happy the mayor and aldermen invited them. The big topic he heard during the dinner meeting was the need for communication, he said.
"I think to be effective, not just here in Eastern North Carolina but in North Carolina period, we've got to have an open line of communications from the cities to local municipalities, communities and also from the state."
Everyone at the meeting said they would like to see them continue with the state representatives, maybe quarterly, and with the county and other municipalities involved.

Full Bio
Mark W. Kaelin has been writing and editing stories about the IT industry, gadgets, finance, accounting, and tech-life for more than 25 years. Most recently, he has been a regular contributor to BreakingModern.com, aNewDomain.net, and TechRepublic.
I bought a CoCo in 1981 and it had 4K of memory. 8K of Rom on a cartridge. I broke the seal and upgraded to 16K. Whoo Hoo! Terri
I still have one of these hanging around, still functioning. With some add on gadgets i had it running for some time running theOS9 operating system of a pair of IBM Hard drives with the then astounding capacity of 5 megabytes each. My daughter used it to do her homework on it and we connected to the outside world with a unheard of speed of 2400 baud. ahhhh the good old days It still works as i write this. it is a COCO 3 with 512meg of memory installed 2 5 megabyte harddrives and 2 double sided 5.25 inch floppy drives of 360kb capacity. aaaaah the good old days
If anyone can remember the small computer called the Sinclair that was probably on the market when the first Commodore computer came. What ever happened to this company?
The color model got me started programming in BASIC. DOS, FORTRAN, COBOL, followed. Just a couple of years later you could buy prefab software. I quit prog for good. Yeah, right. Today I'm back in college learning C++. The irony!
The author implied that Motorola was the "chip of choice" in TRS-80 machines. That's not the case! the "main" TRS-80 machines (Models 1, 2, and 3) used ZILOG Z-80 CPUs and, I presume, Intel/Zilog "interface" chips between the CPU and memory. I suspect CoCo used Motorola CPU, etc. chips to respond to the rising popularity of the Commodore PET and 64 systems AND it's possible they "borrowed" Commodore designers, etc. to help them design the CoCo. Trivia: didja know the Commodore 128 had TWO CPU chips in them? yes, it had BOTH a Motorola 6810(?) CPU AND a Zilog Z-80 CPU. Ingenious use of the clock signal and "exotic" interface chips actually allowed the 128 to run Commodore OR CP/M programs. This allowed the 128 to, at the time, be "The Best Of Both Worlds" when CP/M was the predominant "business" operating environment (BEFORE PC/MS-DOS, BTW!).
I doubled its memory I bought it a 16K chip. Used it, well tried anyway, to decode RTTY and FAX redpigg
Back when an OS was just an OS - not a brute but an enabler.
cool cool
Drove all the way from Albuquerque to Los Alamos to pick up my CoCo with an extra 32K (64k Wow) of memory. Stayed up all night copying code out of magazines and saving to cassette. Moved on to my next love the Atari 800 and DE RE ATARI. It's a sordid trail that leads me to my present condition.
I had the original gray model. Was all set to put bubble memory on it...yes bubble memory but decided instead to remove the 16K chips, install 32K chips and piggy back another 32K chips on top of these.. soulder the legs..except the sense line and then remove some other components to give the 64K more power... Worked like a charm... PS I still have the unit.. my basement looks like a museum.
The large metal cage acts as a FARADAY SHEILD, prevents inductive charges from the coils from interfering with normal operation of the components inside. Note the Holes on the cage, because those trannys got a little warm, you could not allow the ole guy to get hot so you had to have ventalation, and also you have to block harmful/nusance inductance at the same time.
Doesn't seem like much tech knowledge here. Knowledge of how to use a screwdriver and Internet search engines. This statement, "For some reason the power transformer is housed in a steel cage.", from a supposedly "TECH" environment, sounds totally naive. People with basic knowledge of computer construction and electronics could probably tell you why it is there, if not only for safety reasons. This statement, "There is one key that is different on the TRS-80 keyboard. The Break key was used to stop a Basic program from running. Ah, the days of the infinite GoTo Loop.", makes the author sound as if they don't know what CTRL-C or the Pause/Break key is for on modern computers. Can I get a job earning $60,000 a year pulling apart old technology, taking many pictures and offering little insight into the technology??? BTW - I know what the empty socket is for. Sadly, sold all my CoCo stuff, including Rainbow mags, OS-9, 5 1/4 in. floppies, drives and the "can't get along without it" tape drive, to an individual back east in order to purchase my first Intel (used, '486) machine. This is how versatile the CoCo was. Had the expansion thingie where you could plug in, I think, four cartridges, had upgraded to the amazingly fast (2 Mhz) Hitachi 63B09E processor and had an after market 1 MB board. Had to create extra vent holes in the top cover to dissipate the heat or it would not cooperate in a 90 deg. F. room. Extended BASIC was the cat's meow for the CoCo back then. Best thing was, INEXPENSIVE books detailing all the BASIC ROM's were available, making it easy for the hobbyist to create either C or Assembly language programs that interfaced with and used the ROM routines. Where is the PC equivalent of RAINBOW mag today???
Wasn't the cage around the power suppy to keep the EMF away from the CRT in the television you were using as a monitor? I would love to see the inside of a Timex Sinclair 1000, the PC I had before the CoCo.
You should check out the HP65 or HP67 Programable calculators. They both had magnetic card readers and onboard storage for programming using RPN logic. There not sold any more of course , and collectors think there a good investment. I still have my HP-65 that I used in an engineering department prior to the PC becoming the primary tool of choice.
...only to find out that RS/Tandy had boogered up the 286 processor wiring so that it couldn't be put into protected mode. It had another chip - whose function may have been keyboard I/O (I forget - but I remember that it ticked me off that it was non-standard) they actually named "Midnight Blue". Thus began my long hatred of things "proprietary"...although I have had to work with them, I have NEVER paid for an Apple, an IBM PC with the MCA bus, or another Tandy...
I still have a working Atari 400 home computer in my basement. My Atari 800XL bit the dust after a few years but that 400 is built like a tank. 16K on board memory, membrane keyboard, and a cassette tape drive... Ahh the memories.
This really brings back memories... The CoCo 3 was my 3rd computer after the Timex and the Atari 800XL. In truth I was more fond of the Atari. The Coco was followed up by my first truly useful computers They were an Apple 2C and the Tandy 1000XL - and one of the coolest old dinosaurs of all time. The Tandy 102!!! I think a lot of these are still in use to this day. Mine finally died last year after over 20 years of abuse. Yep, them was the good old days - I wonder If I can remember to program in basic... LOL. I think this is why I recently bought a Asus EEE machine. Portable, light, 7" screen Linux laptop the uses flash memory. It kind of reminds me of the old days without being outdated.
I almost bought the TRS-80 CoCo. Spent the money on a car instead. Glad I waited becaue IBM rolled out the PC and changed the world. I couldn't afford the IBM PC but later on the PCjr came out and I got that. My mass storage devices were the 360K diskette and a cassette recorder. Remember storing programs on cassette? LOL Anyway, learned BASIC on that computer and got pretty good at it getting past the machine's limitations. Good memories! :)
I still have my Sinclair ZX Spectrum and an Acorn Electron (a cut down version of the BBC Micro) both in working order and with software.
It was not a computer: It was an emotion. See all these comments...
As the publisher of the long-defunct "Hot CoCo" magazine, I enjoyed seeing the guts of the machine again after so long. We had a lot of fun producing the magazine! We also briefly published "Jr." magazine, devoted to the IBM PC Jr. Our main magazine for several years was "80 Micro," which was all about the TRS-80 Models I and III. Jeff
The ribbon cable is soldered for their repair department, I was a Radio Smuck manager from 77 at 8 mile road and Dequiner, and yes the same area as the movie, a white 20 year old who got the job for 2 reasons. I was sent there to run the store as a temporary manager, I was 20 years old, but had been the #1 salesman in Detroit for 8 out of 12 months. The manager of the store had died, standing in a wet shower, blow drying his hair with a blow drier with an old frayed cord~! Needless to say he was late for work, or is that just plain late. Too late for me, and I always said there is no way, with the items they sold, that someone could work their way into being a manager without knowing that was suicide, and it probably was. I sold 3 times what they normally did in a month, once I fired the racist pig that was the salesman and turned every black person away. I hired all people from the neighborhood and they were all black, I'm white if it matters, it didn't to me, I wanted the neighborhood to know, Radio Shack was there for them again and would stay that way. It eventually got me in the 3rd highest store in Detroit at a little over 21. I was there when people paid $699 dollars for a 4k mono computer actually it had 3583 bytes left, so it knew it was a computer. You then waited from 4 to 6 weeks, before you were called to come in and pick up your "computer" it had a basic (2 years after the stone age) keyboard and anything you saved, to a portable cassette and maybe 10 times, you could return the info to the machine, before you had to find the magic settings for each program, and saved info. Volume, tone each at the perfect place, and the machine de-magnitized every 12 hours of use, kept sealed in the case, away from speakers and you couldn't face it towards the magnetic poles because it wouldn't reload. Such a fun computer, and basic programming so magical. If X > or = 12 then goto line 26, Ect. etc. Then the big computer was born the 16k, $999 otherwise exactly as the first, until they started coming with a 5 1/4 floppy, expensive and only a slight improvement over cassette. Then Radio Shack got the bighead, built a ton of computer only stores, stealing he business from local stores, and firing Manager that went 3 months in a recession, without beating the year before sales record, without any credit given for business lost, and the year before you tripled the year before that. Eventually you hit your maximum sales and customers if you weren't in a nice area, or mall. My store was a 2 shotgun 1 machette neighborhood store, with no sign on the side of a True Value that half the people said "I never knew you were here) and Radio Smuck building a mall store a mile and a half away from me, stealing my Devry students, that the professor that expected us to have a kit in stock for all his new students, a 1000 bucks our cost and they went to the new store. Kind of like the Starbucks across from other Starbucks. Eventually Radio Shack's desire to stay with proprietory software, so when IBM and Microsoft were born Radio Smuck took a big hit, eventually closing every computer store, and eventually to now where they sell somebody else's computer. ooOOO! That had to hurt. Course we've seen 8 years of Texas "leadership". What works in redneck land, is in no way, the mindset of this Country or it's people. Hopefully soon we change history, and regain our legacy as a world freedom fighter, and not someone who bankrupts us and gives it to companies that never do their job, no bids, and computer voting machines with no backup. Come on as computer people, the question is not if your hard drive, or Windows, boot sector, overlay whatever goes south for the winter, in July. Only a fool or a cheat designs a system with no way of checking it's validity. Then a program was found on several memory cards, that all the votes were tallied on. Making both elections very questionable at best. I hear in 2000 there was a County that had -16,000 votes for Gore! -16,000. They were up all night making the mandatory count come within the margin, so no real recount was ever done. They handpicked the Counties, and results. As people who know what computers can do, we all should be very mad, and watch them like a hawk, or Microsoft and all their money and lawyers. The only way in today's economy, and environment to feel safe, and have a voice. This post wouldn't fit on the first $700 4k mono system. The color computer for the first year plus had 64k, and later a few 128's. It's like kinescope, compared to HD, somebodie's coming out with Don King hair, looking like they were hit from Larry Holmes or George Foreman, with his biggest grill. That man has some serious need for me to be his best friend. Haha! Hey, my Grandpa was named George, and there was talk about the black hired hand and Great Grandma, or she was at least very good Grandma, haha! Grandpa George, it's me your long lost white grandchild. he'd probably say not lost long enough, and besides they didn't name me George, and he don't tolerate that. Would you say something to him? I like my jaw, still attached, that's the way I remember it coming. What are the best use of your old Co-co's? 1. set them up in the visitor room you setup when you want the company to leave the next morning, hopefully before you wake up! 2. Your cat's computer, a moving picture on the screen and some place warm to sit. 3. By the front door, as a security device, you pick it up and smack the intruder with it. 4. A guilty turn in for Goodwill for the write off and 20% off coupon. 5. sent it to George, so he can be like the other big boys and have his own computer. (it was never hooked up to anything else) so no news to read. Woudln't want to ruin one of his 4 vacations a year. 6. Send it to Linda Tripp and tell her to put it in front of the camera if she sees a camera. A Man can only take so much of her.
I still have my first TWO computers: MC-10 Micro Color Computer and CoCo 3 with 512MB of ram, plus a boat load of hardware add-ons! I used it access internet via UNIX to read email and other unix commands!
When I first heard about the CoCo back in the early 80's, I shrugged it off, thinking it was a toy. I already had a TRS-80 (pronounced "trash 80"). But I ended up buying one, which I upgraded to the max (beyond even what Tandy could do). I ran OS-9 on it and used it as a timesharing server for two other CoCo's which I eventually bought. I also used it to produce videotapes for presentations that I gave on various IT topics. It turned out to be surprisingly versatile. Leo Toribio
MY 1st computer and what taught me the foundation I needed to start my career was the IBM PCjr. I feel the PCjr has earned a place in history with it's 'sidecar' attachments and upgrades. Would love to see one split open again.
Hey! I remember those! LOL! The nickname was "Trash-80". This was the time when Bill Gates had states, "640K ought to be enough for anybody." I wonder who was his adviser at that time... Thanks for the tear down. Always nice to see the art of engineering from the inside out. Luis
I believe Caged Monkey is correct. The ribbon should be able to be pulled form the black socket that is holding it. The mechanisms used today have a type of latch that can clamp "together" a ribbon cable in a socket. But before these systems existed, Ribbon cable sockets were made to just have a tight fit. The trick to taking one of those ribbons in and out is grasping the ribbon near the top of the socket between your thumb and first finger which is normally in a curled position. Rock the ribbon gently end to end while pulling up. You'll feel the ribbon giving slowly at first but then it should come out. Care to putting the ribbon back in is using the same principles. This will keep you from ripping the ribbon during removal or bending it when replacing it. I used to work on the US Navy's C.I.W.S. Phalanx system ( Block 0 ) which definitely was around before the TRS-80 and at various points had cables like this. Hope this information helps.
I remember opening up the case to max the memory. Then buying from some surplus place a incredibly heavy (45lbs !!!) case containing two Double Sided, full height 5.25 drives manufactured by Digital Equipment Corp (DEC), god only knows for what! Then adding a CoCo tape disk controller cartrige to give me 4 drives as each side of the floppy was treared as a separate drive. Never got around to installing OS-9 as I sold the whole thing to another CoCo nut & bought an XT clone PC-20 built by Commodore with an add on EGA card, 720K 3.5" drive, and external 1200 baud modem which came with it's own permanently attached phone. It quickly gave way to a 2400 baud internal and it was off to local BBS services and a Compuserve account.
The yellowish tint on the transformer is varnish. When the transformer is made it's dipped in varnish to keep all the layers of the core together.
There was an operating system for the old CoCo called Os9, which was a unix based system that when properly configured actually ran multi user/ multi tasking. Talk about too much time on your hands, when I worked for a Radio Shack computer center we took a full blown 128k unit and two 32k units 4 CoCo floppy drives and actually had a working 3 user demo. Extremely slow by today's standards kinda like Fred Flintstone in comparison but actually worked!
Did anyone else own an Amstrad CPC464? My parents chose this over a C64 for me when I was 7. I remember being devastated due to the lack of games and that some of my friends were getting C64's. I'd like to see you get hold of one of these and crack it open.
I hope you realize that the keyboard on the one you cracked open is an upgrade to the original "chicklet" keyboard the machines first came to market with.
My very first computer (believe 1981). Later, my dad got me a CoCo 3. These were quite enternaining for me. The 6808/09 processors were like having your cake and eating it too. But Intel became the King. :)
We had a couple of CoCo/OS9 Users groups up here in the Twin Cities. I ran the OS9 BBS for about 2 years out of a walk in closet in our tiny apartment before we bought a house in about '86. OS9 - WAY before its' time. Small kernel, PIC, Ext Indirect Addressing - back when MSDOS could only do PIC w/12 CPU cycles - OS9 in 1 or 2! We built a SCSI HDD interface using a PIA chip. Slow, but allowed HDD. I still have 3 or 4 units in boxes but I think my wife threw out the SW.
I still have mine. Any offers? I also have a late 60?s vintage cassette recorder that can load the games and record your basic programs. This is an awesome walk down memory lane. My first computer was a Timex Sinclair but I sold that to buy my coco. It was expandable to 32K of ram which I did. What a power house!! And yes, the transformer cage was to protect the video from 60Hz EMI. This was analog video into TV with a 60 Hz refresh rate. Just out of curiosity I would love to know how old the kid was that wrote the article, but regardless, well done and quite entertaining. I have cartridge games too, checkers and a few others. My favorite was a tape game called bedlam. Now I have to dig it out and see if it works! My daughter will be impressed I am sure. ;o)
ahh low power schottky TTL those were the days! hand warmers to boot!
I remember that little bugger with the membrane keyboard. Powerful little bugger for the size. There used to be rather large user group for it here in Portland, OR
A buddy of mine up in Alaska has been using a CoCo3 for ages to run a custom designed 3-D wood carving business. He originally was using it to only carve wooden signs and eventually turned it into carving metal electric guitars. He's been doing some pretty cool stuff on that old box.
I like to earn that too. I have an idea why the power supply is in a cage, the point is that the power supply is in a cage instead of some other enclosure. Please understand, I am not an Electrical Engineer. If you would to share your knowledge with the rest of us, I will gladly pay you to do so.
While I no longer work here, I do feel that someone should point out that if you don?t know where you?ve been, it is difficult to know where you are going. I slightly distrust programmers who only use object oriented languages without experience writing machine language. OO is GREAT, but you still need to know the basics and CoCo taught a LOT of us the basics of hacking. As for where Rainbow is today, it is right here as well as other places online. We did cutting edge things in Rainbow such as publishing programs on vinyl.
What an honor to see your posting! Good to meet you I am Steven, I used to subscribe and read Hot CoCo all the time, in fact I remember getting that last issue was very sad to see the last pages notice. Roughly saying it is being integrated back into the magazine that gave birth to it. I knew it would not be long after that. I am from Ohio too! I oddly enough moved to Albuquerque with my CoCo2 for college, this was about 3 years after Bill Gates moved his operations from there to Redmond. We of course know MS wrote the CoCo Basic ROM code. CoCo 3 was a nice machine, they should tear one of those down here too. I have 3 CoCo 3's, 3 MultiPaks, disk units, Cloud 9's Flash/HD controller with Drivewire brings CoCo pretty close to the 21st century, lol. Check out my site www.cocolives.com still under construction. Long Live CoCo!!!!
I wrote for Lonnie for years at Rainbow and PCM, still have a few copies of Hot CoCo around along with a stack of Rainbow and four or five CoCo's. Later did the CoCo column for Computer Monthly. Remember running multi-users using OS-9? John McCormick, siliconsamurai
I know what you mean. I went even further. I opened it up, soldered in a full 1 meg of RAM, managed to get two double sided 3.5 floppy drives working and even put a SCSI hard drive in that puppy. I did install OS-9 and have run as many as 12 keyboards and monitors, all doing different things at the same time on that "old" "antiquated" computer. The one thing I never did that it was famous for being able to handle was to use it as a total environmental controller for my home.
I got my first computer as a christmas gift in December 1980. For those wanting a true mechanical key switch keyboard, here is the link: http://www.cyberguys.com/templates/SearchDetail.asp?productID=14078 Nothing beats this Ione KB. Thanks for the memories !
That keyboard is not soldered in. It's a flex cable and can easily be removed from the connector. The connector is soldered to the motherboard but the flex cable is not.
We had a good size user group here in Charleston SC too back in the day. I have 3 of these things; two are branded as Timex-Sinclair, the other as ZX-80. I built a voice synthesizer back in 1983 and interfaced it to one of my ZX machines and wrote machine code to control it, which was a challenge with the 4K limitation, especially since the 4K of RAM was shared with the display! That was a fun project. I loved playing around with those little machines. The ZX, along with the CoCo changed my life. After writing a handful of games and simulations for the CoCo, I was hooked. I'm 42 now and have been a professional software developer for over 20 years, due primarily to the influence of the CoCo and ZX.
You say "slightly" distrust programmers who only program in OO languages.. What an understatement!! You'll get a kick out of this one.. A friend of mine, who I met BECAUSE of our common love of the CoCo was working at a big development shop which shall remain nameless to protect the idiotic... One of his "top" programmers had to figure out a way to read a single bit out of the middle of a bit-mapped return code... You know - the kind of thing an old coco asm. programmer could do in a couple of clock cycles.. Well, this guy ended up with a 128 level deep if-then-else sequences to query whether the byte was any one of the possible combinations that would indicate that the desired bit was set or not... Hand-typed, and manually calculating each byte value along the way.. Understanding that this is the state of our "college minted" application developers, it is not hard to explain why something like Vista needs a 2ghz processor just to provide the horsepower to run the O/S effectively... That programmer, although in my opinion, he should have been fired, was simply embarrassed to death when he was shown how his pages of if/thens could be replaced by ONE line of code and a little binary and'ing..
I still have many of my old books from back in the CoCo days and like to look at them. I just wished I had not gotten rid of all my Rainbow magazines! You never know when some trivial little piece of code might solve a simple problem. Gotta remember KISS! Everyone wants to make things more convoluted than neccessary. I still to this day always try to optimize my code. I'm always looking for an easier way to do a task. Heck that's what got me hooked on programming in the first place.
Funny and *sad* story up there. I got the visit at my office of two college level students on their 6th semester (school name withheld to protect it's geek factor) sent my way via someone that knew me from my CoCo hacking days. These two young guys - Computer Systems major - had been left with a project that within required to evaluate PRIME numbers from ODD ones on a list, therein lies their problem: they were up to snuff on OO languages, but couldn't find a 'library' or canned-code to get them across that small hurdle, they had a convoluted process to resolve it and their teacher asked them to simplify matters a bit. Intentionally, feeling they wanted a quick way out of it, I wrote up while explaining the SIMPLE MATH BEHIND one solution as a Basic program straight from my CoCo days. The 'logic' escaped them somehow and reluctantly took the piece of paper with the 4 or 5 lines of Basic code. I was dismayed to see this. Granted not all students are on that spot but it shows what's out there on "the job market".
Too many people (Microsoft included) write sloppy code and don't remember the old KISS theory. Sometimes the hardest problems are solved by the old tried and true methods. Don't always need fancy OO to solve simple boolean logic. Just like for me. About a week ago I was frustrated beyond belief trying to solve a ColdFusion programming issue using Flash forms with multiple related select lists that defaulted to specific items. I searched forums all over the place trying to figure out my problem for about 3 days. Then it dawned on me that I could solve the problem using what was already at hand the basic list and it's built-in properties of using the 'selected' option. DOH! Sometimes the answer is right in front of us and we have to remember the BASICS.

Will Light's noble goal succeed, or will the Death Note turn him into the very thing he fights against?
