TechSpot: How Has Windows Search Improved Since Win2k? Hint: It Hasn't!
Last weekend I was feeling a bit nostalgic and fired up Windows 2000 on my home computer. Win2k has a special place in my heart. Sadly, due to planned obsolescence it's no longer possible to use this fantastic operating system with the latest software available (without manual modifications).
During the day I work at a fairly large industrial company. We have many different systems and machines worth millions of dollars, so it goes without saying that if such machinery works and performs a good job, we don't throw it out just because it runs NT4 or Windows 2000. Indeed, some of them still do. The fleet is being continually upgraded though, and I'm glad to see the oldest NT4 systems leave us for good soon.
When it comes to the actual work I do, you could call me the company's factotum. I operate machines, make cutting programs in our variety of CAD/CAM software, and I'm the go to guy when one of the machines need a virus cleaning since the Siemens NT4 / Win2K / XP systems can't be easily updated. (Ok, so this was added for effect, they don't continually get viruses ).
My office's workstation runs Windows 7 x64, it works great with the CAD/CAM software I use: AutoCAD, SolidWorks, and other machine-specific software like Mazak FG-CADCAM and Adige Artube.
But back to my recent adventures with Windows 2000. I wanted to bring up how responsive it is: You type in a network name, press enter, and voila, there is no delay. You're prompted for a password the instant you send your request. This is not so for later versions of Windows. It can take anywhere from a few seconds to minutes for the password prompt to appear. Perhaps my tiny home network isn't the best example, but the same behavior is seen at my company where there are hundreds of networked computers.
If I try to access the network from a Windows 2000 workstation or server it is instant. Try the same on a XP or Win7 system and you'll have to wait patiently. It is almost impossible to understand, especially when you consider that I can type www.techspot.com into my browser, get a DNS lookup and be brought to this site within less than a second. But to access a machine in our own company, which is at most 500 meters away, going through a switch or two and a gateway can take several orders of magnitude longer!
Be that as it may, what annoys me even more are the "improvements" made to Windows search through the years. The search box in Windows 2000 is very powerful, there are no cute animations and there are no exclusions. It's just no-nonsense search, as you would expect it to be.
Enter Windows XP and search has been "improved." You now need to click on several buttons to select how to search, which is slower and more cumbersome. Oh, and you get to watch a dog go "fetch." On the upside, XP's search engine resembles that of 2k's, it's just adorned the same way the OS was, blue ribbons and all.
Next up was Windows Vista, which we'll skip, lest I suffer from cardiac arrest!

This goes right along with all the other grievance mongerers they cultivate.
Since this is a graphic, it's hard to appreciate the full context of the quote and how devastating it really is. Here it is:
"There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs—partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs…There is a certain class of race-problem solvers who don't want the patient to get well, because as long as the disease holds out they have not only an easy means of making a living, but also an easy medium through which to make themselves prominent before the public."

After spending days combing through box after box of documents, I gave myself a much needed couple of hours off. I fled the archives, dropped my briefcase at the hotel, and headed into central London on the tube. I disembarked at South Kensington Station with the purpose of having a look around the area which was once widely known as 'Albertopolis'.
What is Albertopolis?
In the South Kensington area of London, following the fabulous success of the Great Exhibition of 1851, Prince Albert, prince consort to Queen Victoria, had the brilliance of forethought to create a metropolis of art, science and culture. Albert was worried that the British Empire was lagging behind the rest of the world, and so wanted to create schools for learning, as well as archives and museums, which would celebrate all the best of the British Empire, and mark Britain as the world leader in the areas of art, science, and culture. After Albert's death in 1861, Queen Victoria continued to add to this area, which had become colloquially known as 'Albertopolis'. Laying the cornerstone at what was to be named the Central Hall of Arts and Sciences, Queen Victoria officially christened it Royal Albert Hall. In effect Victoria ensured that the area serves as a national memorial to the memory of her husband.
Here's a slideshow I created and uploaded to YouTube, featuring some of what I came across on my journey through Albertopolis on that windy afternoon.

Fine Lines: American Drawings from the Brooklyn Museum
- Dates: March 8, 2013 through May 26, 2013
- Collections: American Art
Fine Lines: American Drawings from the Brooklyn Museum
Fine Lines: American Drawings from the Brooklyn Museum, the first major presentation of the Museum's most significant drawings and sketchbooks, showcases the variety and vitality of the graphic arts in the United States between the late eighteenth and the mid-twentieth century. Throughout this period and into the present day, drawing has held an important place in American art. Artists have used drawing as a way of recording the world around them, as an expression of a creative impulse, as preparation for work in other formats, as a vehicle for artistic experimentation, and as an autonomous form of art. Long regarded as the foundation for all other forms of art (including painting, sculpture, and architecture), drawing has been a pillar of artistic training and a fundamental part of the creative process for many American artists. In addition, drawings have a powerful sense of intimacy and immediacy because of their close connection to the artist's hand.
Fine Lines features more than a hundred drawings and sketchbooks in a wide range of media, subject matter, styles, and practices within the history of American graphic arts. The works are arranged thematically in sections devoted to the human body, costume studies, portraiture, narrative subjects, the landscape, and urban imagery. In addition, a technical section about conservation investigates the distinctive properties of a variety of materials and techniques, shedding light on how artists achieved certain effects. Altogether, this presentation of master drawings from the Museum's collection affords a rare opportunity to appreciate remarkable works that are infrequently exhibited because of their light sensitivity and fragility.
Recording Anatomy
The human body has long been considered one of the most challenging subjects for the artist. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, mastering the representation of the figure was a fundamental component of professional training. In art academies, students learned to depict the body by drawing from casts of classical sculpture—regarded as embodying Western ideals of physical perfection—and from live models. Even as progressive artists began to reject the conventional practices and idealized naturalism of academic art in the late nineteenth century, the nude figure maintained a vital presence in American art. Artists used the body to explore new styles and shifting conceptions about the nature of human physicality.
The drawings in this section range from figure studies that reflect the enduring legacy of the academic tradition, to works that take a frank and realistic approach to the nude, to modernist experiments with form and the expressive potential of the human body.
Fashioning Character
Costume drawings have long served important and multifaceted roles in American art. Some were created as technical exercises for working out the illusionistic fall of drapery over the human figure. In the academic curriculum, artists advanced from representing the nude body to portraying the clothed form.
In figural representation, costume also adds a layer of narrative content. In other words, artists used distinctive clothing and other accessories to construct or fashion a character's identity. Nostalgic images of peasants and rural folk became popular over the course of the nineteenth century as the United States became increasingly urbanized and industrialized. American artists and audiences were also fascinated with the "exotic" and the "picturesque," finding a range of interesting character types in far-off lands, as well as closer to home in a transformed modern society.
Portraying Personalities
The nature of drawing makes it well suited to portraiture, an important genre throughout the history of American art. A portrait drawing can often be made with more ease, speed, and economy than an oil painting or a sculpture, and graphic media can achieve a wide range of pictorial effects. The intimacy of a drawing also enhances the sense of immediacy evoked by the portrait.
The drawings in this section include images of specific individuals, idealized depictions of generalized types, and symbolic or emblematic portraits. Most of these works appear in a conventional bust-length format, capitalizing on the age-old assumption that the face is the most expressive and idiosyncratic part of the body. As a representation of an individual, a portrait functioned not only to record a likeness but also to signify social identity, moral character, mood, and personality. Many artists adopted a naturalistic style to convey a sitter's distinctive appearance, while others used idealization or abstraction, or included symbolic elements to capture a person's character.
Telling Tales
The drawings in this section relate stories through a combination of characters, setting, and action. Narrative pictures present the artistic challenge of conveying an anecdote through pictorial means in a way that is both easily legible and aesthetically engaging. In traditional academic training, artists advanced from figure drawing to multifigural compositions in the Grand Manner, with subjects drawn from history, religion, and literature. Drawings played an important role as preparatory studies for the orchestration of pose, gesture, lighting, and other components in these complex narrative paintings.
Over the course of the nineteenth century, artists often found anecdotal interest in genre scenes of everyday life and used drawings to capture their observations. With the expansion of the publishing industry in this period, many artists worked in commercial illustration, making images to accompany stories in magazines, newspapers, and books.
In these diverse types of narrative drawings—preparatory academic studies, genre subjects, and popular illustrations—artists generally used a style rooted in naturalism to convey their tales clearly, while still manipulating formal elements and revealing details for expressive effect.
Exploring Nature
The easy portability of drawing materials has historically made this art form well suited to documenting nature through on-the-spot observation. Ranging from panoramic vistas to close-up studies of particular species of flora or fauna, the drawings in this section exemplify various approaches to plein air (open air) sketching.
The rise of the Hudson River School in the second quarter of the nineteenth century established landscape as a significant genre in American art and placed a premium on the direct study of nature. Many artists spent the summer months working outdoors, recording their observations in drawings that were used as source material for paintings made later in the studio.
Plein air sketching remained a vital practice into the twentieth century. Influenced by the French Barbizon School, Impressionism, and other modern movements, artists sought to portray the fleeting effects of light and atmosphere as well as their subjective responses to nature. In addition to providing a respite from the chaos of urban life, nature inspired experiments in new styles and aesthetic concerns.
Observing the Built Environment
For artists, the impulse to represent the world around them with on-the-spot sketches extended to both the wonders of nature and the constructions of human beings. The drawings of architectural edifices and cityscapes in this section address the structural, spatial, and aesthetic properties of built things, as well as the formal and symbolic relations between organic and synthetic forms.
Throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, depictions of historical architecture documented these structures and invited philosophical musings about the passage of time and humankind's transformation of the natural world. As the United States developed into a more urbanized and industrialized society during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, artists found aesthetic inspiration in the new vertical thrust of skyscrapers and the gridded geometries of cities and mechanical forms. The dramatically altered landscape of the modern metropolis prompted artists to seek new ways of capturing the urban environment and experience through modern and abstract styles.
Drawing Materials and Techniques: The Conservator's View
Fine Lines gave conservators the opportunity to study many drawings that had not been exhibited for decades. Each work was examined to understand how the artist created it and to assess its condition. Some objects look much the way they did when first made, whereas others have changed over time. After gaining a greater understanding of the condition of the drawings, the conservators, in conjunction with the curators, decided on a course of treatment to preserve each piece.
A large part of the conservator's work involves examining the drawing materials and paper. Identifying materials can often help to date works and place drawings within a historical context. Many more materials became available to American artists beginning in the late eighteenth century, owing to scientific advances and increased trade with England after the Revolutionary War. Greater exposure to European artists and artworks stimulated interest in the art of drawing, and numerous art treatises and instruction manuals encouraged its study as a valuable component of a well-rounded education.
Behind the Scenes in the Conservation Laboratory
Conservation treatments are generally performed to correct changes that occurred in the past or to help prevent further changes in the future. In some cases the goal is to bring the drawing closer to its original appearance. Decisions regarding treatment are made after careful examination of each work and in consultation with the curators.
Historical Drawing Manuals and Treatises
Today someone interested in learning to draw might take an art class or watch a video on YouTube. In the past, many artists obtained their instruction from books. As drawing became more of a popular artistic discipline in the nineteenth century, thousands of copies of drawing manuals and treatises were sold. These books gave aspiring artists lists of necessary artistic materials, as well as exercises for developing their drawing skills. Treatises provided discourses and instructions on topics ranging from the correct way to hold a pencil, to how to draw different types of lines, to techniques for drawing specific subjects such as the human figure or trees.
Marks on Paper
Many types of papers, finished in a range of thicknesses, tints, and textures, were produced specifically for artists' use beginning in the early nineteenth century. This case contains various drawing materials applied to two different sheets—a rough example and a smooth one—to illustrate how the artist's choice of paper changed the look of the work.
The appearance of drawing materials was also influenced by the instrument used—whether a brush or a pen, a sharp or a dull point—and the amount of pressure applied by the artist's hand. In addition, the hardness, hue, and blackness of materials varied according to the amount of wax, chalk, or black pigment added to the formula.
Up Close
As seen here, photographs taken under magnification can help to identify paper and materials, and to reveal the artist's working method. Some materials, such as charcoal, chalk, and Conté crayon, can appear similar to the naked eye but look different under the microscope. Magnification is also useful to ascertain the fragility of the media; a powdery, soft surface will require special framing materials and specific travel restrictions.
Drawing Instruments from the Past
The pencils, pastels, and charcoal that are available in art stores today look similar to those of the past, but some instruments, such as ink pens, have changed as technology has improved. Quill pens were used for writing and drawing for centuries. The artist could cut the tip of the quill pen into different shapes to create various types of lines. It would last about one day before it needed to be resharpened with a penknife. Reed pens, also cut by hand, could be used for bold, broad strokes. These implements were slowly replaced by the steel-nibbed pen, first made in 1825 in England, and the fountain pen, whose internal ink reservoir made an inkwell unnecessary. Artists' manuals often included advice on choosing, preparing, and customizing materials and equipment.
Laid and Wove Paper
Two types of paper, distinguished by the method of manufacture. Laid paper has a gridlike pattern, caused by the wires of the paper mould on which it is made. Wove paper, available by the end of the eighteenth century, is made on a fine mesh screen and therefore lacks the grid pattern of laid paper. The grid pattern—or its absence—is often visible when a sheet is held up to the light.
A medium made by burning thin sticks of wood in an airtight container. By the mid-nineteenth century, charcoal particles were often compressed into a stick and called compressed charcoal.
A natural material mined from the earth composed of calcium carbonate (white) and carbonaceous shale (black). Chalk was replaced in the nineteenth century by fabricated media such as Conté crayon and fabricated chalk.
A liquid medium generally applied with a pen or brush.
Black ink: A black pigment mixed with water and sometimes animal glue or gums.
Sepia ink: An ink made from the ink bladder of a cuttlefish.
Bister: A transparent, warm-colored ink, commonly applied with a brush, made from wood soot.
Iron gall ink: A common writing ink since antiquity, made from oak-tree galls and iron salts, used mostly with a pen and an ink pot. The ink is often corrosive.
A natural material made of carbon, first mined in Borrowdale, England, in the sixteenth century. Originally, pieces of graphite were cut and trimmed to fit inside hollow wood casings to make sticks. Today, the graphite in artists' pencils is combined with clay and other additives and then fired.
Conté Crayon
A fabricated material made of powdered graphite mixed with clay and pigments and baked, invented in France in 1795.
A medium in stick form composed of colored pigments with white chalk and a small amount of gum binder.
Tools used to remove media, both to correct mistakes and to create highlights. Rubber erasers, bread crumbs, chamois cloths, stumps, and scrapers were all employed for these purposes.

Bay Beach Amusement Park
Editor's Review
Visitors of all ages agree that Bay Beach offers good, cheap fun. The old-fashioned amusement park features a handful of rides that run just a quarter or two. That's right, a few bits to whirl around on the Ferris Wheel, Tilt-A-Whirl, Scrambler, toy boats or kiddie helicopters.
Guests also love the small train chugging around the bayfront park grounds, plus bumper cars, a big slide ride, pony rides and even the Zippin Pippin roller coaster. The park offers concessions and a spacious pavilion for dances and other special events. You'll find lots of spots for picnicking, and just across the road, the free Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary. So pack a picnic lunch, grab a five-dollar bill and prepare for a day of fun.

About Me
I am a board-certified medical oncologist focusing on the treatment of solid tumors. I have a particular interest and expertise in the treatment of lung cancer and cancers of the head and neck. I am actively involved in weekly conferences such as tumor boards and medical oncology lung conferences with colleagues at Memorial Sloan Kettering's main campus, where we discuss patient care and the latest research and treatment options in these fields.
To provide optimal treatment for patients with lung or head and neck cancer it is often necessary to coordinate care with other specialists such as speech and swallow therapists, nutritionists, physical therapists, and social workers. We are fortunate at Memorial Sloan Kettering Sleepy Hollow to have access to these resources at the Center's main campus in Manhattan. In addition, for patients who wish to receive their care close to home, we can collaborate with our community physicians and healthcare teams to provide some of these supportive and non-cancer services locally. Many patients require treatment approaches such as radiation and surgery, so I work closely with my Memorial Sloan Kettering colleagues in radiation oncology and surgical oncology to ensure the best possible treatment options for each patient.
At Memorial Sloan Kettering Sleepy Hollow, I am proud to be a part of a team of dedicated nurses, physicians, and support staff, who work together to ensure that patients receive state-of-the-art cancer care in a safe and supportive environment.

The search in my copy of Win 8 can't seem to find any shortcuts except those in the Start Menu folder.
Using the search in the Start screen.
I did this to test:
1) Create a shortcut at an indexed location thats not the Start Menu folders
Posted 03 May 2013 - 13:30
How exactly you know that the location is an indexed location and not the start menu? I believe you need to index the location first before you can search with start screen.
By the way, there I found not problem with the search.
Posted 20 November 2013 - 16:00
I found this forum doing a google search, and same problem here, I couldn't get windows search to find my .lnk file. As a work around I created a simple .vbs file to open the .lnk file.
Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") WshShell.Run chr(34) & "C:\path\to\shortcut.lnk" & Chr(34), 0 Set WshShell = Nothing
This worked. Windows search finds the .vbs file, and opens the shortcut. It's a little bit of work for just a shortcut, but for my needs it's working good so far.
As a note: I tried creating a simple .bat file that would just simple open the .lnk file. Windows search found the .bat file, but when I clicked it from the search results, it would open the cmd window briefly, and the shortcut would never open. The .vbs file didn't do that.

I must confess that, as someone who has been following the series right from the start, it's a bit difficult for me remember what that experience of reading Discworld for the first time is like.
So - a few questions for new readers:
1. How did you come to read your first Discworld book?
2. What was your first Discworld book?
3. Will you read more?
4. Which one do you intend to read next?
5. If you didn't start with Colour of Magic, how easily did you find it to get into Discworld? Did you feel that some background knowledge was necessary?

There's been more hype with the new Camaro over the last 24 months than there probably was back in 1967. And that's not entirely bad. The faithful wept when GM pulled the plug on the F-body back in 2002. The response from customers, car lovers and the media alike has been overwhelmingly positive since the '10 Camaro reappeared in the Spring of 2009. In the midst of the worst recession since Carter was in the White House, Camaro sales are robust-without the aid of rebates or other Band Aids. For the first time in over a decade, the Camaro is outselling its archrival from Dearborn.
As good as the Camaro is, Chevy left a lot of room for improvement. Sure, it's got 400-plus horsepower in SS trim, but it's also about 400 pounds too heavy. That means it needs a lot more snot underhood, bigger brakes, and better handling to perform like a real thoroughbred. The aftermarket has gone haywire, introducing everything from slightly different steering wheels to body parts to blower and turbo kits, all in the name of making the new F-body the best it can be.
Enter the RPO Series of Camaros from Mr. Norm's Garage and Kenne Bell Superchargers. Kenne Bell first hooked up with Mr. Norm's to supply the blowers for its line of 2009-up Dodge Challengers. These were such a hit that getting an all-out Camaro in the hands of customers and like-minded Chevy dealers was a natural. Horsepower levels are 650 with the 2.8L blower on a stock 6.2-liter engine, 825 hp with the 3.6L supercharger bolted to a built LS3 and-get this-1,000 hp with the 3.6 huffer on a custom-built 7-liter LS engine.
Any of these options will make your '10 Camaro feel about 800 pounds lighter-this we can tell you from first-hand experience. We flew to Southern California recently for a full-bore drag test of the 650- and 825-horse models at California Speedway in Fontana, California, and nearly sucked the scoreboards out of the ground. OK, maybe they weren't that fast, but considering they are tuned to run on 93 octane pump gas, and 50 state emissions compliance is pending (even for the 1,000-horse version), we'd rate their performance as outstanding.
What Do You Get?
Those well-versed in GM lore know that RPO stood for Regular Production Option back in the day. Most famous of which was probably Z28, which became an actual Camaro model designation, and L88, for the Corvette's race engine option from '67-69. There are tons of others, from JL8 to M22 to ZL1, but for these cars Mr. Norm's Garage pulled a few beauties from the archives. There's L78 for the 650-horse variant, L72 for the 825hp cars, and L88 for the 1,000-ponies machine.
But just what do you get with this alpha-numeric mumbo jumbo over the standard Camaro? All the RPO cars come with custom Mr. Norm's wheels, see-through carbon fiber hood (a'la ZR1 Corvette), plus special graphics and interior trimmings.
The red car you see was the 650-horse model. It had a T56 manual gearbox and a Centerforce clutch, standard on the RPO cars. The rear wheels measure 20x10 with 315/35R20 Nitto NT05 drag radials. While these wheels are a $3,599 option on the RPO cars (we recommend them), the tires that come with them are the stock Pirelli PZeros. The factory summer rubber was deemed more than capable for the street or road course. By doing this, it eliminates passing on the cost of expensive aftermarket tires to the customer. The Nittos were strictly for drag testing purposes.
The aggressive appearance blew us away, and the red interior with custom L72 stitching is not for the bashful. (When this prototype was built, this 650hp model was going to be called L72.) You are still stuck with the factory steering wheel and gauges, which win no awards for style or function, but there was a shift light-especially useful for older drag testers like the author.

Does it use power when it is plugged into the cigarette lighter and no iPod or iPhone attached?
- Asked by Travis M from Coppell
Kensington PowerBolt™ Micro Car Charger
Product No Longer Available
2 Answers from the Community
Best Answer:
There is a small amount of power consumed by the charger adapter, when inserted, lights a LED, however the major power drain occurs, 2 amps x 5v = 15 watts, when a device is connected like the iPad. I would not leave this plugged into an always-on vehicle receptacle for long periods of time. Plug this into a 12v car adapter receptacle than triggers off, with the ignition switch, for safest results, and to prevent battery drain when away from the vehicle. JimW

Baltimore's 100 best bars [Pictures]
Baltimore's nightlife scene is a reflection of its people -- extremely eccentric, but just as endearing. We put personality at a premium, and expect good value, too. So while we're happy to visit D.C. for the occasional swanky escape, given the choice, we'd take a cold Boh in a Baltimore bar nearly every time.
But which one? Ask 100 Baltimoreans their favorite bar and you'll likely receive just as many answers. That's because it's a diverse, forever-evolving community, susceptible to rising trends (craft cocktails, beer-snob hang-outs, sophisticated wine bars), but firmly committed to its long-standing haunts and dives. Last year, we broke the overall top bars list down into Top 10s (best places to go dancing, best places to meet singles, etc.). But this year, we stripped the signifiers and tackled the city's scene head-on. Raise a glass, and let the debates begin. --By Wesley Case

No. 100: Dougherty's
Attracting patrons from the neighborhood and the nearby colleges, Dougherty's Pub has 15 beers on draft and the typical happy hour specials patrons have come to expect in Baltimore. But it also has character and heart, which can be seen on the wall filled with works from local artists, free of charge.

"Unique in the world:the Domaine d'Auriac is built on the ancient settlement of Carsac, where the history of Carcassonne began"Pierre and Marie-Hélène Rigaudis, Maîtres de Maison, present their property:
The Domaine d'Auriac, at the foot of the city of Carcassonne, which is listed as a Unesco world Heritage site, is built on the ancient Carsac oppidum, where the story of Carcassonne first begins. For three generations, the Rigaudis Family have been ceaselessly reinventing this 19th-century townhouse, built over the cellars of a Carolingian Abbey – it is a place ruled over by calm, comfort and fine dining in the luxuriant shade of the 300-year-old trees in the surrounding park. The restaurant at the Domaine showcases dishes from the Languedoc and serves the original recipe for the typical local 'Dieu le Fils' cassoulet. Nearby is the fascinating mediaeval town of Carcassonne in a country with Cathare abbeys and castles whose ruins rise from clifftops and rocky promontories, enticing visitors to explore a region where history, mysteries and legends, such as the story of Abbot Saunière's treasure in Rennes-le-Château, abound.

Jet Airways introduces a range of initiatives to celebrate 'International Women's Day'
March 6, 2013
In keeping with its tradition of celebrating International Women's day and as part of its JetViva initiative, Jet Airways, India's premier international airline, is set to honour the efforts of non-profit organizations, aimed at the welfare of the girl child and women in society.
Jet Airways has introduced a unique in-flight fundraising collection drive for three Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) working on a range of women's issues. India's premier airline will contribute all proceeds from this drive to benefit three NGOs namely - Sulabh Nari Kalyan Kendra, Mijwan Welfare Society and Akshara, with a focus on expanding opportunities for women, through employment, self reliance and sustainable development to commemorate International Women's day. As part of the "Celebrating Womanhood" initiative, Jet Airways has begun a fund collection drive on all its domestic flights from 4th - 13th March, 2013.
Furthermore, between March 4, 2013 and March 8, 2013, Jet Airways is featuring its women staff members from various departments, including Cockpit Crew, Check-in, Technical Services, Ticketing and In-flight services, on its social media channels viz. Facebook & Twitter. The staff members who are being featured include Captain Shweta Singh- Examiner/Senior Commander, Karuna Manval- Check-in staff, Rumila Banerjee- Technical Services Engineer, Ingreet K-Ticketing Supervisor and Kainaz Mehta- In-flight Supervisor. This activity is intended to be an introduction to the airline's female workforce across various departments, as they share interesting insights into their life and career with the airline's fans.
Two lady pilots from Jet Airways, First Officers Kadambari Uppal and Milly Emmanuel respectively, also attended the 'Nanhi Chaan' celebrations at Fortis Hospital in Noida on March 6, 2013, aimed at protecting the girl child and showcasing the varied achievements of modern women.
Jet Airways participants in the "ICan Women's Half Marathon" scheduled for Sunday 10th March at the Bandra-Kurla-Complex in Mumbai, will run in support of Nahni Kali and Samhita, in support of two key women related causes : Prevention of Anemia leading to Malnutrition and Education for the Girl Child respectively.
According to Mr. Sudheer Raghavan, Chief Commercial Officer, Jet Airways, "International Women's Day is a global day celebrating the economic, political and social achievements of women. Their contributions across strata have been immense and immeasurable to say the least and on the occasion of International Women's Day, Jet Airways would like to commemorate these special NGOs with various fund raising programs. These efforts are a small expression of the airline's appreciation for their continued support to the airline over the years."

"The Game Plan" tells the story of rugged superstar quarterback Joe Kingman, whose Boston-based team is chasing a championship. A "serial bachelor," Kingman is living the ultimate fantasy: he's rich, famous and the life of the party. But, this dream is suddenly sacked for a loss when he discovers the seven-year-old daughter he never knew he had--the product of a last fling before parting years ago with his young wife. Now, during the most important time in his career, he must figure out how to juggle his parties, practices and dates with the newfound ballet classes, bedtime stories and dolls that come with his daughter. Equally perplexed is his hard-edged mega-agent, Stella, herself without a parental bone in her body. Despite the often hilarious misadventures that come with being a new father, Joe discovers that there's more to life than money, endorsements and thousands of adoring fans: the love and care of one very special small fan is the only thing that matters.

Managing the elements
Calling all teachers and FLL coaches: How do you manage all the elements that come in an NXT set? Do you try to keep sets separate, or do you let all the pieces get mixed up? What kinds of bins or organizers do you like to use?
The folks at LEGO Engineering would like to know, and they've created a survey that you can take.
I'd like to see if we can get a conversation going here in the comments section.
Shown is my my current bin system, the Stanley Professional Deep Organizer, model 14410. These bins are twice as deep as the bins in the 14325 organizer that Jim wrote about earlier. The problem with the deep model is that the small elements are dumped into large bins. I'm inclined to use a 14325 organizer for all the small elements.
Looking around, I see that Motocube has posted photos of an NXT organizing system.
You can see photos and read my review of the Plano 5231 Stow-N-Go Organizer here. I think it might work well for an individual, but in a class or club setting, it has drawbacks.

I'm not certain, but I think that Stanley is phasing out this line of organizers. You may still be able to find them at Home Depot, Lowes, and Target. Harbor Freight carries a knock-off version in their stores, but the lid is inferior and the plastic used for the case and the bins feels cheaper, too.

I like the Plano(made in USA) Boxs 2-3750 for parts. They are only 2" tall. but are very durable. They also double as obstical courses too.

The education kit comes with a great storage box with slots/compartments for parts and extra room in between the trays for storing papers etc.
- Feb 24, 2007, 7:33:00 AM
I agree with anonymous. The storage sets that come with the education sets are great, and give plenty of room to spread the parts out.
For my home kits, I also use the Plano boxes. I keep all of them in a fishing tackle organizer that has side pockets. I have other sets that have large wheels and the pockets are a great place to store them so all of my pieces are together. Since the NXT bricks are also too large to fit in the Plano boxes, I use the side pockets to store them as well.

The only problem I have with the education kit storage boxes is if they spill... you're done. They don't fit tight enough to keep all the small parts (like pins or bushings) in their storage cell if the whole box gets inverted (or worse, falls off a table). I use the Plano 3750's as well, with some of the smaller Plano's for axles, and the older shallower ZAG containers (the folks who made them before Stanley took over the prodcut line) for the really small or rare parts: pins, bushings, gears, axle connectors, etc.

I've been thinking of punching holes in a sheet of foam (0.5 inch, or 1 cm thick) to make a holder for individual pins and short axles. Will post a photo when I get around to making it.

I find that the best thing for sorting my Legos are those small clear tackle boxes, they work very well as they can fit any size piece. They are Plano and come in many sizes. Every single piece I have is sorted, such as different length axles, beams, different kinds of pins, everything only goes with things that are EXACTLY the same. It works very well.

i had one plano box full of my connecters and pins spill wonce :o thousands of the small parts went everywhere on wood floors they seem to bounce 20ft pluss always lock them plano boxs!

I like to use the Flambeau Kwikdraw 8030 or 8050 tackle boxes and the storage trays that come with them. The trays have rails that let them ride in slots in the main box, much like drawers in a dresser, and additional trays are available at sporting goods stores. The trays come in two depths, with the deeper one able to hold an RCX or NXT on edge, and the smallest division in the shallow tray is a convenient 5X6 studs. I've given several of these tackle boxes to the local elementary school to store their Mindstorms pieces, and they work well. We have found that there just aren't enough compartments in the Education set trays to adequately divide the parts, and I agree with Brian about them not being secure enough. (Of course neither are the Flambeau trays if they are knocked to the floor with the lid open.)
If you want labels for whatever storage method you use, you can find them at the ortop site. http://ortop.org/res.htm#links

Plano has a new rack system. The largest of these hold 3 or 4 series 3700 trays (with lids) with ample storage on top for the NXT brick, wheels, and other large components. See it here or look for it at a sporting goods store. Menards (a chain of home centers in the midwest) also carries these rack systems in bright yellow.

I also use the Stanley/ZAG containers. What they do that no other container does is you can remove the individual compartments and rearrange them. When I build, I simply take out the compartments that I need the most. I have about 12 of them (a mixture of deep and shallow types) for my Technic/Mindstorms.
I organize all my extra LEGO in ziplock bags that I put in my Rubbermaid Underbed Storage Boxes, which I store on shelves. (They are 30"x17"x6" and made of a hazy-clear material). The Rubbermaid boxes and lids also function as trays for sort and building.
Peter Hoh,
I called Stanley and they currently carry ZAG's "deep" organizer (14408) and ZAG's shallow organizer (14325). But they no longer carry ZAG's 14410 deep organizer.
But I have also seen knock-off versions replace the higher quality ZAG originals. Hopefully other companies will not follow suit.
- Feb 24, 2007, 10:50:00 AM
I just got back from a vacation, and I went to a huge Sports Shop. They were having a sale on some type of tackle box. Being the geek that I am, I bought them and I am about to sort my pieces in the 3 I bought. They were $6 but I got them for under $2!
Until now, I have been using the NXT box, but now that I have had it for about 7 months, it is getting beat up. I will still store the bigger items in it, but the smaller things will go in what I bought.

- Creative Kids said...
We're using the trays that come with the education set. Our team likes to be able to lift the trays out. They find that more kids can work on building at the same time.
I like the idea of tackle boxes that have lids for each section. But do the trays lift out?
- Feb 24, 2007, 4:13:00 PM
- Brian Davis said...
I would learn towards containers that can be lifted out or opened up seperately; I too use the ZAG containers lifted out of the case, and for building frenzies I open nine or sp of the Plano boxes, stacking open box on open lid three deep in an arc of three around me. The result is a nice array of parts, with very few lids that kids, cats, or parents can trip over (tripping on one open lid and watching the box go flying can ruin a good chunk of your evening). I have some tackle-box storage, but only the type with removable trays or containers - the chance of spilling one of those multi-tiered expanding tray systems (or of having to close one layer before opening another) makes me shudder. With regards to the "new rack" systems from Plano, they also used to have a big red box that held several of the large Plano storage boxes; that was actaully what I used when I taught. They ended up being hard to get, but I also for a while used some soft-sided cases that carried multiple Plano boxes (great for traveling, if everything was broken down).
Brian Davis
- Feb 24, 2007, 10:56:00 PM
- peter hoh said...
Plano boxes can be modified so that the lids can be removed easily.
As with any hack, try this at your own risk. Do not attempt this without adult supervision. Wear safety goggles. No warranty implied. Your mileage may vary. Yadda yadda yadda.
Looking through my collection, I see that this applies to the older style 3700, 3600 plano boxes. The Pro-Latch boxes use a slightly different mechanism, and this hack does not apply to them.
The lid part of the hinge assembly has a small piece of plastic that sticks up between the two hinge fingers. This piece keeps the lid from coming off the hinge.
Using nippers or a amall penknife, remove that piece that sticks up. Leave the fingers intact. The fingers will still hold the lid on when the lid is closed, but when open, the lid can be separated from the box.
- Feb 25, 2007, 4:06:00 AM
- peter hoh said...
Kirk, a customer service rep at Stanley told me that are limited to what they have in stock. They do not expect to receive any more new stock. The boxes are no longer regularly stocked in all Lowes stores, from what I can tell.
Creative kids: The individual compartments in the Plano boxes do not come out. The compartments in the Stanley/Zag boxes do come out. More questions? Send me an email. It's on my profile page.

Ummm...I use a $2.99 plastic organizer I picked up at Big Lots.
(see here:

Not particularly fancy, and it doesn't fit the brick...but it works.

I like it because the container will not open up if a 2 year old throws it down a flight of stairs.
- Feb 27, 2007, 1:17:00 PM
Is there any place where one could
just buy the storage bin and trays
from the Lego Education sets?
Like the ones shown here:
Thanks for any info
- Apr 21, 2007, 3:44:00 AM
Peter Hoh or Mike R,
Could you please publish the exact link for the labels? I have been searching for them in the ORTOP link you gave like crazy and no success yet.
Thank you.

I paid $8,500.00 USD on elance.com for this ebay deal finder to be made,
I regret doing business with the person I hired as you can see the website doesn't load very quickly and theres nothing too exciting about the graphics as he lied to me that he had a team of graphic designers but did not.
If anyone has any advise for me on picking my next web designer please do recommend because I will be involved in another project in a couple of months.
Ive not built a site in like 5yrs, but even I could build a better looking and loading site on my own. And for around a 10th of the price ><

For me, Towel Day is full of strong emotions of all sorts. I read Douglas Adams' Wikipedia page today, and noticed an icon near the top I had not seen before. It turned out to link to an audio recording of someone reading the page, and fittingly it was in 'ogg' format (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ogg_vorbis, if you are new to the term). This collision of literary references inspired me.
I decided I would like to attempt to contact Terry Pratchett to learn what his thoughts might be on a fitting public remembrance and celebration of his life and work, while there is still a chance to consult him on the subject. I have never attempted to contact a beloved author before, so this seemed like the most appropriate way to start.
Cursory searching on this forum and did not turn up anything that seemed to answer my question: if I missed something, consider this my apology, and thanks in advance for a pointer.
