Michael Campbell is still in touch of winning on the European Tour for the first time in almost eight years.
The 43-year-old has carded his third successive four under par 68 at the Doha Golf Club to get to a 12 under par total in a three-way share of second place at the Qatar Masters.
Cambo will begin the final round three shots back from Englishman Chris Wood who made the most of moving day with an eight under par 64.
The former US Open champion once again got off to a fast start as he made three birdies on the front nine to make the turn in three under par 33.
He added further birdies on the 10th and 13th as he kept pace with the birdie blitz from Wood before dropping a shot at the 15th.
The eight time winner on the European Tour has been on a steady comeback since the middle of the 2012 season -where he recorded a third place finish in Portugal and a tie for eighth in Hong Kong.
He is currently in a share of 59th place in the early stages of the Race to Dubai Standings and is looking for his first victory since the World Match Play at Wentworth in 2005.
It is a remarkable comeback from Campbell who during his career slump fell outside the Official World Golf Ranking's top 900 after injury problems and a loss of form.
He is playing with renewed belief after the two top 10 finishes in 2012.
"Six months ago, I was desperate," he told the European Tour.
"I think I made two cuts in about two years, 18 months or something, and now I have a chance of winning a couple times last year and maybe tomorrow.
"We are just going back to what is working and what worked before, and going back with my coach Jonathan Yarwood six months ago definitely helped.
"That's really one thing I've been working the last six months is just smile after each round of golf, whether it's a good one or a bad one, and it's working so far. It's really simple stuff."
Campbell is outclassing a field that includes a total of 80 European Tour winners but he has still got his eyes on improving further and winning for the ninth time in Europe.
"Once again, four under after ten holes and just couldn't hole a putt on the last eight holes," he added. "I holed a chip, but not a putt.
"It's been frustrating, but it's just one of those things where at this time last year, I was packing my bags and going home, so I can't complain about that. Being three shots behind with one round to go, it's definitely nice to be in this situation.
"It's just nice to be out here and having some fun at the same time and maybe have a chance of winning.
"I think when a title is definitely reachable, expectations are obviously quite high and I want to do well this weekend or tomorrow, and if I don't, no big deal, you've got next week.
"All I can do is just control my own game, control my own destiny and see what happens."

Optimizing your Mac's Memory
Free memory is a key requirement when we want to open up new apps or begin new processes, but unfortunately there may come a time when we just don't have enough and things just seem to slllllooooowwwww dooowwwwnnn!!!
Previously we could just simply upgrade our RAM, but with the way Apple seem to be heading with the design of the new iMacs and MacBook ranges, upgrading may no longer be an option.
So what is the answer?
Well firstly we need to confirm that the issue is with the memory and not anything more drastic. Activity Monitor is stored within /Applications/Utilities, if you're more familiar with Windows it is the Mac equivalent of Task Manager.
It is a multipurpose application but we where need to focus on is the "System Memory" Tab. If you are unsure about what System Memory is telling you then this Apple Support Article will help explain each type of Memory.
What we now need to do is, free up more Memory by forcing OS X to clear out inactive Memory. We can do this in a few ways:
Launch Terminal, this can be found in /Applications/Utilities and enter the command
OS X will take a minute or so to complete the process and may appear to freeze briefly.
Once complete, however, you will have full control as before and by checking Activity Monitor we can see that we have now freed up almost 2GB.
OS X Mountain Lion does not require any software to be installed to run the purge command, however previous versions of OS X may need to have Xcode & Developer Tools installed in order to use the purge command. These can be downloaded for free from the Mac App Store
My main issue now is that I had to use multiple applications to check, resolve and confirm the resolution of my memory issues. So, I created an Application to run the purge command using Automator (/Applications) but this still required checking Activity Monitor before and after.
While trying to find a solution to save time I came across a free Application called "Memory Clean" by FIPLAB Ltd. This ties in the required features of both Activity Monitor and Terminal in one easy to use application.
The interface is simple and easy to use, and I also like that the added preferences gives you the option to "Auto Clean" your inactive memory once free memory falls below a user specified threshold. Although during heavy Memory usage this can become frustrating with the system freezing briefly from time to time.
5 Responses to "Optimizing your Mac's Memory"
What? Why are you recommending this bogus-no-need app? Tell me, when do you need to "clean" your memory?
Granted OS X is usually very good at handling memory. But over the years I have come across instances where end users have required to clear out inactive Memory and don't have the time in restarting the system. Some people using Antivirus software may find regardless how much memory they have it can easily get used (one user had his anti virus software use over 12gb of ram during scans and not free this up after).
I also have needed to use this during training as trying to run keynote presentations and run a virtual machine, both memory intensive Apps again don't always free up memory after being closed. The main issue people will have later is that you won't just be able to increase your memory so if people want to run memory intensive apps then apps like memory clean or just using the purge command may become helpful quick fixes.
I agree that for many like yourself this may not be an issue but that's not true for everyone.
Thank you, though, for taking the time to respond!
If you have not experienced this, it means you're an amateur user and i think an iPad is all you need in your life but for us professionals and computer illiterate users, tips like these are precious. As a matter of fact i have to shut down my Mac when i go off to lunch just so i can clear my memory and cache or my freakin Mac will become as slow as a Windows computer used by the dude that sits next to me. When i work with excel files that's more than 150MB with a few other softwares running, maxed memory on my MBP doesn't cut it. But then again, some users just don't use it to the full potential so . . . .
Daryl > Sorry about the tone. I was just suprised that what I think is a great pro site talks about this. I still say that in 99 times of 100 you do need this app.
Anon > No, just 14 years as a Apple Tech and also 5 years in the movie business. Sure amateur.
It is screamingly clear that if you need to restart your computer every lunch its you who are the amateur.
Thanks again for your reply.
Our Blogs do range as we aim at all users not just industry professionals. As I mentioned with end users who wish to run Anti Virus software this has been a reoccurring issue.
The main reason for this app is its simplicity, I myself have needed this process but as mentioned use terminal.

Clarkson: head to head in the C63 AMG Black and M3 GTS
The Merc C63 Black and BMW M3 GTS both have a hardcore brief, but which is better?
Posted: 18 Mar 2012
What you see here is a BMW M3 GTS and a Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Edition. Both are small two-door German saloons. Both have been pumped up to a notch hitherto only used by Spinal Tap. Both have been stiffened and lowered. Both make a proper racket. Both cost more than £100,000. Both go like stink. Both have lightning-fast seven-speed gearboxes. And both are utterly brilliant.
You'd imagine, then, that they are both very similar. And they are, in the same way that a Chinese takeaway is exactly the same as an Indian takeaway. Both come from Asia. Both arrive on a moped. And both can cause a little discomfort the following morning. But they are completely different.

"The Eyes of a Man"
If you ever can look into the eyes of a man dressed in blue,
It will make you wonder why he protects me and you.
He suffers from lack of sleep, the red eyes will tell,
Even missing a meal or two to keep us all well.
Years of tears sometimes built up inside,
From what he has seen, but thinks he hides.
Look a little deeper in his eyes and you could even see,
How he felt all the years he has protected you and me.
For all the times people have been rude to him,
For pulling them over, while out with their friends.
For the little girl he saved from a burning car,
While others just watched him from afar.
Not to mention, the bank robber he caught last week,
People never talk to him unless it's his help they seek.
For the drugs he has confiscated over time,
The people, he has saved comes to his mind.
The times he wonders at the end of the day,
Is it worth all this pain, for such little pay?
But, don't look unless you are willing to see,
He is a human being just like you and me.
He wears his uniform, gun and a badge on his chest,
Doesn't make him perfect just a grade above the rest.
For if you look real hard you will also see,
A man who you respect is who he longs to be.

SOMETHING other than gravity is helping an embryonic star devour the gas around it, causing it to grow at a furious pace and emit X-rays well before it should.
The precocious star, which lies about 500 light years away in a group of 10 young stars, is a Class 0 protostar. A team led by Kenji Hamaguchi, an astronomer at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, has detected X-ray emission from this object, the first to be seen from such a young protostar.
Studies using space-based X-ray telescopes suggest that the X-rays are being emitted as the surrounding gas slams into the protostar's dense core at speeds greater than can be explained by the object's gravity alone. "We need some other mechanism to explain the acceleration of the gases," says Hamaguchi. His team thinks that magnetic fields winding through the gas between the stars in this group are ...

Heart attacks common around harvest timeDuring harvest season and even when farmers are gearing up for harvest, rural areas see a large number of heart attacks, says Dr. Thomas Haldis, an interventional cardiologist and medical director of the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory at Sanford Health in Fargo, N.D.
By: Tracy Frank, Forum News Service
CASSELTON, N.D. — During harvest season and even when farmers are gearing up for harvest, rural areas see a large number of heart attacks, says Dr. Thomas Haldis, an interventional cardiologist and medical director of the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory at Sanford Health in Fargo, N.D.
Farmers might push through their symptoms because they want to get their harvest in, he says, but symptoms are warning signs.
"When you have chest pain out in the tractor, that can be a disaster," he says. "Don't ignore symptoms during harvest."
On a hot, humid day in September 2011, Ryan Radermacher was working on some equipment on his 4,000-acre wheat, soybean and sugar beet farm near Casselton when he suddenly became sweaty.
He thought he was suffering from heat stroke or heat exhaustion, he says, so he went inside to cool off and asked his wife to call the 24-hour nurse phone line.
"She looked at me and said I was a pale gray and didn't look good at all," Radermacher says.
While she was on the phone with the nurse, Radermacher started feeling pressure in his chest and his arms started to ache. His wife hung up and called 9-1-1.
Ambulance crews arrived and gave him medication, oxygen and administered an electrocardiogram to assess for a heart attack.
It turned out Radermacher had a blockage in his right artery. He was 45 at the time.
Sanford LifeFlight took him to the hospital, where he had an angioplasty to clear the blockage and a stent was inserted to help keep the artery open.
It took 38 minutes between the EKG in his driveway to the stent placement, Radermacher says.
Many heart attack victims die within one hour of the first symptoms, according to the American Heart Association. That makes it especially risky for people in rural areas.
This year, an estimated 1.4 million people will suffer a heart attack, and about 400,000 of them will experience a STEMI, the deadliest form of heart attack, according to the American Heart Association.
ST-elevation myocardial infarction is a type of heart attack caused by a prolonged period of blocked blood supply that affects a large area of the heart. (An ST segment is the line on an EKG that when elevated, indicates a STEMI heart attack.) It has a substantial risk of death and disability and calls for a quick response, the association states.
"When you have that kind of a heart attack, 90 percent of the time your artery is 100 percent blocked," Haldis says. "When it's 100 percent blocked, we've got to open it."
The guidelines say the blockage should be opened within 90 minutes of first medical contact, he says. Yet there are only six percutaneous coronary intervention, or PCI, centers in the state — in Fargo, Grand Forks, Bismarck and Minot.
PCI, which uses procedures such as stents, balloon angioplasty or surgery, is the preferred therapy for treating STEMI, according to the American Heart Association.
The association is working to improve heart attack patients' outcomes in rural areas through a national initiative called Mission: Lifeline.
It's a collaboration between regional hospitals with PCI centers, smaller medical centers and emergency medical services to make sure plans and protocols are in place to transport and treat heart attack patients.
"You have to have a plan," says Haldis, co-chair of the North Dakota Mission: Lifeline program. "You must have a plan to make this work because of these huge distances."
Haldis started a similar program at Sanford five or six years ago based off a STEMI program started during his fellowship in Pennsylvania, he saiys. Haldis then became involved with the American Heart Association's Mission: Lifeline program.
The North Dakota project started in 2011, followed by the Minnesota program in 2013. A statewide STEMI protocol was adopted in 2012 in North Dakota. It's being shared with the Minnesota task force.
The program, Haldis says, has made a huge impact in people surviving heart attacks in the state.
Before the program, he says there were about 150 deaths per 100,000 people from STEMI. Now, he says, there are about 20 deaths per 100,000 people from STEMI.
"There are still some counties that are way, way out there where we're just not able to get them quickly," he says. "It's still something that we struggle with in the far-out rural counties."
Thirty-four North Dakota counties are designated medically underserved areas, and 13 additional counties have some part of them designated medically underserved, according to the American Heart Association. Rural areas are heavily dependent upon volunteer ambulance services and the capabilities of small hospitals to receive STEMI patients and transfer them quickly, the association states.
Radermacher served on the Casselton Volunteer Ambulance squad for more than 25 years and was also a member of the Casselton Fire Department for 25 years, so when he started to feel chest and arm pain, he took it seriously.
"I knew better than to play Mr. Tough Guy when you're not feeling right," he says.
Calling 9-1-1 instead of having his wife drive him in was also crucial.
"I didn't hesitate to call 9-1-1, and I have no heart damage," he says. "Listen to your body. If you're not feeling right or you're feeling symptoms, get it checked out."

Raymond Francis' NEVER BE SICK AGAIN Gives Advice on Good Health Choices
News about the severe flu season is everywhere and we are hearing how emergency rooms across the nation are overwhelmed by people admitted with acute flu symptoms. Scientist, health expert and author Raymond Francis is an internationally recognized leader in the field of optimal health maintenance. The expert advice in his book, Never Be Sick Again, shows us how to make good health choices and restore that critical sense of well-being.
His Beyond Health model, a revolutionary new understanding of health, is explained in Never Be Sick Again. This model is based on cutting-edge cellular biochemistry and molecular biology that can prevent and reverse disease. The human body, like every living organism, has specific daily needs that must be met. Without meeting these needs, the body will not function properly and optimal health cannot be maintained.
"Keeping a healthy outlook is both one of life's great challenges and one of life's great opportunities. Having a purpose, a higher meaning to your life than mere existence, is a critical part of the whole picture of health," says Francis.
But the lifestyle of the average American does not provide for these needs and, unfortunately, disease is the logical and inevitable result. "It does not have to be this way," says Francis. "Health is a choice. Every choice we make from the time we get up until the time we go to bed affects our health. If you're willing to work and provide for your health, you'll discover that, with even a modest amount of education and effort, it is possible to make better choices."
Francis will soon release a new book focusing on aging and the Beyond Health model. He is an MIT-trained scientist and an internationally recognized leader in the field of optimal-health maintenance. In addition to being a best-selling author, Francis is the creator of the internationally-presented Beyond Health Seminar, author of the "Pathways to Health" newspaper columns, and has been a guest on more than 1500 radio and television shows.

The former army man, who was 53, was found dead on his bed in the upmarket Michelangelo Towers Hotel in Sandton, Johannesburg.
He is believed to have been murdered.
This follows numerous other attempts on the life of another former Rwanda army chief, Lt. Gen. Kayumba Nyamwasa in 2010.
Nyamwasa is also living in exile in South Africa.
Rwandan exiles, most who fled the 1994 genocide and the subsequent political tensions, and fled to South Africa are visibly concerned about their security following the death of Karegeya.
"While the democratic space in South Africa looks excellent, it is the security and safety that worries me most. Well, I have come to accept that I leave everything in the hands of the Almighty Jehovah God otherwise we all not safe here in South Africa as the death of the Colonel shows," said Bridget Ssuuna, a Rwanda refugee in Yeoville, Johannesburg.
"Sometimes refugees found themselves between a rock and a hard place, but what else can we do," she said.
Exiles from other countries also feared the tormentors that they fled from their mother countries might attack them in South Africa.
"Safety is the weakest link in this country. We have seen hundreds of thousands of foreigners, both economic and political refugees being murdered in cold blood under xenophobic attacks.
"We have also witnessed police officers being involved in such cruelty, criminality and unleashing xenophobic vendettas against refugees and foreigners. Now my question is, how police would protect exiles or foreigners from professionally hired assassins when themselves are part of this big problem?" said Nigerian Yakubu Adebanji of Berea, Johannesburg.
Independent media and political analyst, Mr. Trust Matsilele, said the death of Col. Karegeya under mysterious circumstances posed threats of security of people living in exile.
"This death pointing to possible assassination in a public space like a hotel demonstrates what African governments, especially those fighting for power retention can do just to retain power.
"This exactly raise serious issues not only of leading political actors but ordinary citizens who can be viewed to be sympathetic voices in home countries
"Rwanda, a country recovering from a genocide perhaps one of the worst in Africa should ensure rights of opposition polical players as incidences like this could push the country back to a precipice," said Matsilele.
Matsilele added: "Should it be established that president Kagame' government was behind the death of this political, one can not rule out a possible internal revolt and if not handled with care another genocide could be the ultimate tragedy."
He said the murder of Col.Karegeya was to South Africa's interest to establish all facts related to the death in an attempt to close loopholes on its security apparatus
"......factoring that his co-accused (Lt-General Nyamwasa) was once shot in Johannesburg clearly demonstrates that this could not be an isolated case but possibly something political," Matsilele said.
Shaunesu Mudukuti, a Zimbabwean national, who fled the political problems in his country, said he was even afraid to give relatives or friends his residential address lest some people tracked her down his place of residence.
"You don't really know who to trust in this country. People have turned monsters. It is high time people should start safeguarding themselves by not revealing where they live or their places of entertainment," she said.
Karegeya is believed to have been killed by a man purporting to be a Rwandan businessman. According to reports, the assailant is called Apollo.
Commenting about the death of his colleague, Nyamwasa, was quoted as saying, "I am 100 percent certain it was the government."
Karegeya's wife, Leah has been living in the United States for three years citing lack of security and safety in South Africa.

Train derailed in Benton County
Posted: April 8, 2014 at 12:09 p.m.
Updated: April 8, 2014 at 3:28 p.m.
A train derailment this morning in Garfield was not caused by weather or human error, said Ron Sparks, chief of police for the Arkansas & Missouri Railroad.
Twenty of 45 cars derailed beginning with back cars just off Roberts Loop and U.S. Highway 62, with five of those cars lying on their sides. The train cars were carrying mostly masonry sand and fracking sand, Sparks said.
Within hours, another train had arrived on the scene from the west and pulled the upright cars away from the wreck site. More equipment was on the way to remove the wrecked cars.

Intel board backs Otellini as CEO

Barrett still has some fight in himOctober 19, 2004
Intel kills plans for 4GHz PentiumOctober 14, 2004
Meet the new boss, same as the old boss?August 11, 2004
Otellini, 54, will succeed Craig Barrett, 65, Intel's fourth CEO, who said earlier this year that he will step down as Intel's top executive. Otellini, who is also Intel's chief operating officer, has been expected to become CEO following Barrett's retirement.
Intel's next CEO,
Paul Otellini
Although Otellini is deeply involved in Intel's day-to-day operations and its product plans, he'll have his work cut out for him during 2005. The next year or so is expected to be a period of transitions for the company's products and management.
Intel, which claims more than 80 percent of the PC processor market and does a huge business in PC chipsets and motherboards, will release a number of major new products in 2005 and attempt to erase a series of missteps in 2004. Intel has already begun a shift to place much less emphasis on processor speeds and instead emphasize overall performance.
Next year will be the real test of the strategy, as Intel will begin a move to dual-core processors, which will incorporate two processor cores into one chip. The company will also begin to deliver more feature-laden single-core chips.
"We're moving toward platform development (designing substantial portions of computer systems), digital home, digital office, dual core products, essentially the silicon foundation for the next generation of products," he said in a phone interview.
Though Intel is getting into new markets, he added that, culturally, things won't change much at the company, a statement he and other Intel executives have stressed for the past few years.
Over the years, Intel has moved from simply stamping out and selling parts to orchestrating entire PC platforms around its processors, such as Centrino for notebooks. These platforms often involve developing new features, such as high-end audio processing, and writing software. Intel has thus expanded its software group significantly.
Intel's CEO,
Craig Barrett
Otellini has, in one way or another, been behind many of the changes that are preparing Intel for the 2005 transition. For one, he made the decision to cancel Intel's delayed 4GHz Pentium 4 and instead to bring out Pentium 4s with more performance-enhancing cache memory in early 2005. Otellini was also the executive to first champion the company's dual-core approach to the public in May.
Continuing to push rapid clock-speed increases would eventually increase processors' heat and power consumption to impractical levels for everyday PCs, Otellini has said.
As CEO, Otellini is also likely to turn his attention to getting back on track Intel's chronic money-losing Communications Group, which includes its flash memory business and chips for networking and communications gear.
Otellini, however, defended Intel's progress in this area. A few years ago, Intel had only one communication product: Ethernet. Now it sells chips for a variety of functions.
In addition, Otellini is likely to face tough decisions related to manufacturing. The company, which was caught off guard in the third quarter by lower-than-expected demand and excess inventory among its customers, said it will cut back on the number of chips it manufactures during the rest of the year. Eventually, if demand does not pick up, Intel will have to make decisions about what to do with some of its older factories.
Otellini, who joined Intel in 1974, said in a recent interview that he hopes his becoming CEO won't alter much about Intel or its culture.

please could anyone help in gathering the information on carbon credits and carbon trading more specifically , im planin to start a project based on carbon credits.
my id : firstname.lastname@example.com
thanx in advance........
Here in central New York, US we are currently turning hundreds of acres into arboretums. This past spring we planted 3800 hardwood trees and by next fall we should have a total of 15000 planted, given the appropriate funding. We are currently looking for donations to keep this project going.
Our goal is to get to a point where we can help others who may live in metropolitan areas or otherwise don't have the ability to plant any trees. One of the biggest contributors to our climate crisis here is the automobile and we are trying to reduce that by offsetting the carbon monoxide with trees. With every vehicle purchased we would like to have the new owner contact us, so that we might receive a donation or any financial support, to plant trees for there new car.
We are just getting started so any input would be greatly appreciated, please contact us.

"TEA. Earl Grey. Hot." If only astronauts on the International Space Station could summon their creature comforts as easily as Jean-Luc Picard on Star Trek's starship Enterprise. After six months on the ISS, watching the sun rise 16 times a day, astronauts have eaten more than 500 tedious meals of dehydrated, long-life food. Who wouldn't give their right arm for a pizza bubbling with browned mozzarella or a fresh cream bun?
The wacky "food replicator" in Star Trek was pure make-believe. It stored 3D scans of the molecular structure of drinks and meals, then miraculously assembled individual molecules into these foods in seconds. That technology is way beyond our horizons, but a NASA-funded study is about to look into a simpler option - a compact cooking machine that will create a larderful of familiar foods from a limited range of space-friendly ingredients.
The idea is that you could request a ...

An amazing thing happened at my house last week. My sweetheart constantly asks why I need so many dishes. I usually reply that I don't need them, and I will soon be getting rid of some of them. (That's been my reply for about 20 years!) He had to go to a meeting out of town last week. He came home with bags and bags of dishes!

You may have seen my "winter in the woods" mantel in my previous post. This week, we dined in the winter woods. (I can't believe that, once again, I forgot to light a fire before I took these pictures!)

You may be wondering why these springtime jonquils are popping out of the snow. I cut these from our garden yesterday!
We don't have snow in Arkansas right now, but we do have jonquils, so I couldn't do a tablescape without using a few of them to brighten this dreary day.
Have you ever served Laurie's soup? You probably have, but that is probably not the title of your recipe. This soup is so easy and so good that I tend to fix it a lot in the winter. That's why my family refers to it as "Laurie's Soup". I should be ashamed to tell you how easy it is, but since most of you have probably made it before, I'll go ahead and share the recipe in case somebody out there hasn't served it (Feel free to refer to it as "your name" soup).
1 pound ground chuck
3 cans Campbell's Minestrone Soup (undiluted)
1 can Ro-Tel tomatoes and chilies
Brown ground chuck, drain grease. Add soup and Ro-Tel. Cook for approximately 10 minutes. Serves 4-6.
(Note: Some people add canned black beans)
I usually put mine in a crockpot after I brown the meat. That way, it looks like I've been cooking it all day! It also stays warm for anybody who comes in to dinner late. I've served it in mugs, with a spoon, at a winter buffet. I told you I serve it often!

Joined: Dec 2012

Oddometer: 184
So I went through every CL for all of CA, plus Vegas and Reno NV. Holy crap...There are not a lot of bikes that meet my criteria, ha.
Anyway, I'm less obsessed with that 923 mile bike here in town, and am in talks with half a dozen sellers that all have <6k mile bikes for me to think about. They will all require me taking a bus to go get the bike and drive home, but I may yet find a good deal, and end up with something not covered in mud and rust...or full of either one.
5,600 Miles, never gotten wet, quite clean, regularly maintained with Motul full synthetic, all mods included, high quality aftermarket Konica fairings with no damage, but I want OEM, and I don't like the color scheme. Would have to deal with selling those on .net, and sourcing decent OEM ones for anything I don't have in my spares box - - - $6000
<5000 Miles, very clean, not rain ridden, has Yoshimura RS-5 full system, Power Commander-V, dyno-tuned to 111-BHP on pump gas, might come with an extra helmet - - -$6200
6000 Miles, exceedingly clean from what I can see, not rain ridden, adult owned, oil only changed once a year, 1 owner, well cared for, would be sold in stock trim, aside from upgraded chain and sprockets - - -$6000
~5200 Miles, has tipped over in a garage, professionally painted white mids, looks pretty clean, but still waiting to hear from seller about pricing if I have him keep the 800 dollar exhaust - - -$6800 OBO
2,200 Miles! Looks decent, has tipped over once, awaiting pics and a reply from the seller. Comes with free helmet, which I would sell. I really like the color scheme, and it's OEM bodywork - - -$6500 OBO
~7,000 Miles...Supposedly. He says the odo/speedo sensor is busted from a tip over. Same colors I like, but I'd have to pay to fix that issue, at unknown cost. Has some scratches, awaiting pics of damage - - -$5500
<1000 Miles! Never dropped, barely ridden, garage stored, clean title, colors I like. Same concerns as the OP bike though...Dunno if it's gonna be troublesome from long term disuse - - -$7000 OBO
~13,000 Miles...Very knowledgeable owner, nice guy. Occasionally gets rained ridden. Well cared for and maintained. Has probably seen the track some. Comes with a lot of mods, namely 4000-mile young
TTXHO789 rear shock, worth $1300, but sprung for a 190lb rider. I'd have to ride it home from fuckin' Vegas - - -$6500, maybe less

2012 was a year of major change for The Weekender. Within just a few months, the general manager, editor, staff writer, and an account executive all moved on to other employment, leaving many pairs of big shoes to fill. Production Editor Mike Golubiewski and John Popko were the only longtime employees left, and Popko was promoted to general manager in June after almost seven years of hard work.
The team that formed by year�??s end, however, ended up clicking instantly, forging a bold new creative future for the 20-year-old publication. Before we all look forward to 2013, the staff decided to look back and recall our eventful year at 90 E. Market St. in Wilkes-Barre.
�??Aside from me, our staff has completely changed. It�??s been a very emotional year for me, to say the least. I�??ve seen co-workers, who I also considered very close friends, move on to different chapters in their lives. It wasn�??t easy, but I�??m incredibly happy and excited to be moving forward with the new team that we have in place.
�??We have a lot in store for you as our readers in 2013.I hope you�??ll continue to pick up The Weekender and also regularly view our website, which is also new to 2012. Have a blessed, happy, and safe holiday season. Here�??s to 2013!�?�
�??When I applied for the staff writer position in the fall, I had no idea that I would be named editor just a few months later. I started with the company as the staff writer for Go Lackawanna, so when the former editor of that publication, the multi-talented Chris Hughes, filled in as interim editor at The Weekender, it made the transition almost seamless for me.
�??He wanted to retain his position as online editor at The Times Leader, however, so after months of searching for a permanent editor, they decided that a potential candidate was sitting right under their noses. I was both thrilled and humbled by the opportunity, one that I only dreamed of as a staving freelance writer only three years ago. This publication has been my life ever since, and I�??m thankful to have a dedicated staff that works just as hard as I do every day.
�??If you think you�??ve seen a shift in our editorial and online content lately, just wait until you see what we have planned for 2013! Some classic Weekender features will be making a big return, some exciting brand new features will be introduced, and we will be embracing multimedia in ways that no other local publication has yet. Stay tuned!�?�
�??When I approached my Weekender intern adviser in the spring of 2008 to ask if it was possible to become a full-time writer (a �??no,�?? due to limited space), I had no idea that some four years later I would make my home at the publication.
�??I also didn�??t know that such a switch (which happened in November after a two-year stint as a features writer at The Times Leader) would involve an all-out dance party to celebrate my first night laying out an issue, asking people to be photographed in their underwear for our �??Sexiest�?? issue, and quickly finding that my co-workers were not just that, but friends as well.
�??This team of seven is the end result of many changes throughout 2012, and I�??m more than honored to be the last piece of the puzzle. Our staff meetings run longer each week, bursting with enthusiasm and fresh ideas that we�??re diligently working to make a reality for you, our readers.�?�
�??My journey with the Weekender first started in 2009 as an intern. This past June, I put my big girl panties on to take on the responsibility of full-time graphic designer. I was immediately thrown into photographing the swimsuit issue, which can be intimidating when you�??re five-foot-Asian.
�??It seems like these past seven months have passed within the blink of an eye. I was given amazing opportunities, from shooting zombies to Playboy models to asking people to take it off for the �??Sexiest�?? issue. However, I think the highlight of the year was definitely the �??Model of the Year�?? party. Who doesn�??t get a kick out of seeing a grown man in short shorts with a cucumber in his pants?
�??I�??m excited for this upcoming year. I believe that we will grow as a paper and continue providing provocative and intriguing articles to our readers.�?�
�??This was definitely one of the fastest years of my life. I started at The Weekender in March and was immediately tossed into our events and constant social presence that we pride ourselves in. The second or third week I was here, we were already at the Scranton St. Patty�??s Parade making our rounds; John almost fought an old man for cutting me in the bathroom line, but John had been working out, so he backed down.
�??After that, we had our Readers�?? Choice Awards, where I had a few too many Jägerbombs and got on the stage to present and immediately messed up. (That�??s a botch job!) Our �??Model of the Year�?? party on Oct. 5 was by far the most fun I had all year. It was a big success with great live performances, and, of course, the debonair Rob Nitkowski was named Man of the Year.
�??The staff had many changes over the course of the year, but regardless of those changes, I was constantly able to voice my opinions as well as creative ideas. The staff we now have has become a solid one. We have pulled off some amazing issues, and it�??s all due to our constant concern for each other�??s goals. I haven�??t been with The Weekender for long, but from my perspective, I feel as though this year may have been one of the most creative and overall entertaining ones yet.�?�
�??2012 was a transitional year professionally for me, and when the opportunity presented itself to work with The Weekender, I jumped at the chance. Having collaborated with The Weekender teams over the years through other avenues, I always believed firmly in what The Weekender offers its readers and advertisers each week.
�??Over the short time I�??ve been on staff, I�??ve been privileged to build relationships with some fantastic business owners. There�??s nothing better for me than helping a business achieve growth and success through creative marketing consulting rather than just selling advertising. With the new tools available, such as mobile apps, website development, and strong promotional campaigns, we can bring so much more to the table.
�??I�??ve never had more fun working so hard. With my new co-workers being some of the greatest people I�??ve ever met, 2013 should be a year of growth for myself, our company, our advertisers, and, most of all, our readers.�?�

The undead shuffle: Sparkly vampires and hunky werewolves got the boot when it came to horror genre trends, thanks in large part to AMC�??s hit series �??The Walking Dead.�?� While conventions for the �??geek�?� realm have been held in neighboring large cities, the area got one of its own with late September�??s Infect Scranton. Infect brought a little something for everyone: a pub crawl, a 5K, panel discussions, vendors, and meet and greets with some popular zombie flicks�?? shining stars. We can�??t wait to see what next year�??s zombiethon brings.
Model mayhem: The Model of the Year party wasn�??t a first for The Weekender, but it was certainly one of the biggest we�??ve seen in quite some time. The Model and Man candidates from the year made up only a fraction of the huge crowd that packed the Woodlands on an October night. Rob Nitkowski and Dominique Kozuch came out on top, amid a night of local entertainment, delicious drinks, and a whole lot of dancing.
Concert firsts: There were some incredible acts that came through local venues throughout the year, but two of the most notable were the Peach Festival, a first for Montage Mountain, and the 3D Primus concert at the F.M. Kirby Center. The Allman Brothers band played host to the inaugural Peach Festival, a two-stage event that touted acts like the Zac Brown Band, Dark Star Orchestra, and local favorites Cabinet and Miz. Rock band Primus performed with a 3D backdrop screen and quadraphonic sound system to create what bassist Les Claypool called �??a really trippy�?� experience for fans.
Filthy femmes: Never has the area been so abuzz about a physically challenging event. The Dirty Girl Mud Run made a (grimy) splash in May as locals formed teams to race through obstacles with names like �??H2 Oh My God�?� and �??Utopian Tubes.�?� Not only was it a blast to behold and be a part of, a portion of the proceeds were donated to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.
Get your ice cold beer, here: Our area has many ties to the brewing industry, and this year yet another came about. Susquehanna Brewing Company rolled out its first batches of brew in late May, a Pittston-based operation with 55,000 square feet that houses a unique brewing system. �??SBC�?� is now part of the area�??s vernacular, a company whose presence has been strongly felt since the first Goldencold Lager hit the local taps.

1. �??50 Shades of Grey�?� by E.L. James: Though it was published in 2011 (and though this pick goes way against the better judgment of the person doing the picking), it is absolutely no secret that this erotic trilogy made the biggest literary splash this year. The raunchy, light read was a hit with women all over the nation and the men who were eager to see just what they were all salivating about.
2. �??Gone Girl�?� by Gillian Flynn: Who�??s not familiar with the tale of a marriage gone terribly wrong? Flynn brings the high suspense in this novel, a thrilling tale of possible murder, lies, and deceit.
3. �??Divergent�?� and �??Insurgent�?� by Veronica Roth: Fans of Suzanne Collins�?? �??Hunger Games�?� trilogy will absolutely eat these books up. Though the story is familiar (post-apocalyptic world, different factions of society, the act of being �??chosen�?� for something), Roth puts her own spin on things and weaves a tale with twists and turns to keep the plot noteworthy and hot on Katniss Everdeen�??s heels.
4. �??The Fault in Our Stars�?� by John Green: This story of 13-year-old Hazel, diagnosed with Stage IV thyroid cancer, is one that calls for tissues �?? lots and lots of them. It�??s a touching and beautifully written tale of a young girl�??s journey through a precarious life and the way in which she views her world.
5. �??No Easy Day: The Firsthand Account of the Mission That Killed Osama Bin Laden�?� by Mark Owen: People have been waiting to hear the ins and outs of this story, and they got their wish through this book written by a former member of the United States Naval Special Warfare Development Group who participated in one of our country�??s most celebrated missions.
1. �??Babel�?� by Mumford & Sons: �??Babel�?� took M&S to the next level without changing too much �?? which is hard to master on a sophomore album. There are times when the songs are as arena rock as U2 and as unpredictable as Skrillex. It also shows rock bands can still hit number one in 2012.
2. �??What We Saw from the Cheap Seats�?� by Regina Spektor: This could have been higher if it didn�??t clock in at under 40 minutes. Spektor has perfected her songwriting and has found a way to make her songs stick in the listener�??s head long after it�??s finished playing.
3. �??Southern Air�?� by Yellowcard: This was the album fans have been waiting for since the group�??s reformation. Perhaps the most complete record of 2012, it�??s a veteran act that put on a songwriting clinic.
4. �??Resplendent Indignity�?� by Graces Downfall: In a time when local acts are struggling to find gigs, Graces Downfall have put together a solid collection of original tunes and topped the local charts while doing it. �??Indignity�?� displays great lyrical chops and has produced some radio-ready rock hits.
5. �??Uno! Dos! Tre!�?� by Green Day: The 25-year-old band finally returned from operas and Broadway plays to true punk rock form in 2012. It�??s a triple LP release of songs that sound like they could be fan favorites from the �??Dookie�?� era.

1. �??Compliance:�?� Craig Zobel�??s drama (based on real events) about a prank call gone horribly wrong had detractors. Maybe it was because Zobel revealed that our eagerness to please and respect authority is a weapon of frightening power. That�??s not something everyone wants to hear.
2. �??Take This Waltz:�?� A gut punch. A mix of love story and Greek tragedy, it�??s indisputable proof that Michelle Williams is working on a higher level than her contemporaries. Even as Sarah Polley�??s movie breaks your heart into a million pieces, you cannot look away.
3. �??Moonrise Kingdom:�?� Wes Anderson has created a vivid storybook world that contains a sweet, hilarious ode to adolescence. Do you remember how we sensed drama behind every gesture? That the world seemed so big and so small?
4. �??Django Unchained:�?� I took a self-imposed break from Quentin Tarantino after the �??Kill Bill�?� films. I�??m glad I got reacquainted. He�??s finally back to being the wild boy genius with a chemistry set and no parental supervision.
5. �??Sister:�?� A responsible boy, who steals from a Swiss ski resort to pay the bills, and his irresponsible older sister, who disappears for days into the abyss of good times, reach a stalemate: neither can provide what the other one wants. Told with poetry and nuance by director Ursula Meier.
By Mike Sullivan, Weekender Correspondent
1. �??Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter:�?� It takes a special kind of incompetent to somehow make the sight of a vampire throwing a horse at the sixteenth president of the United States in slow motion incredibly dull and uninteresting.
2. �??Ted:�?� Sitting through �??Ted�?� was almost as bad as that time Seth McFarlane took �??The Simpsons�?� and the random contents of Spencer�??s Gifts and turned it into �??Family Guy.�?�
3. �??Silver Linings Playbook:�?� Yes, David O�??Russell has made some truly outstanding films, but �??Silver Linings Playbook�?� isn�??t one of them. Consider this pandering, middle-brow annoyance your punishment for ignoring �??I Heart Huckabees,�?� America.
4. �??Mirror, Mirror:�?� Oppressive in its cutesiness. Experiencing this movie was like being slowly smothered to death with a giant marshmallow by a kitten in a teacup as Zooey Deschanel drowns out your screams by strumming �??Dream a Little Dream�?� on the ukulele.
5. �??Prometheus:�?� Prometheus was basically the Jessica Alba of movies. It was pretty to look at but kind of empty and unfathomably stupid.
1. �??Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning�?� (PS3, Xbox 360, PC): Despite all the legal battles this game had, and the sad story of what happened to the developer, �??Kingdoms of Amalur�?� was one the best new IPs I have played in quite some time. This game had a huge, in-depth story; an interesting RPG progression system; gorgeous, hand-drawn looking graphics; and great fighting mechanics. This game was created by a dream team of developers, and it really shows. If you haven�??t played this and you like RPG games, this is a must own.
2. �??Assassin�??s Creed 3�?� (PS3, Xbox 360, Wii U, PC): The newest game in the series is also the biggest. Set during the American Revolution, this game has one of the biggest and most interesting settings in a game I have ever played. The graphics are breathtaking, the story is amazing, and the gameplay is the best out of one of my favorite series.
3. �??The Walking Dead�?� (PSN, XBLA, PC, IOS, Android): I don�??t know if it was having to wait for each episode to come out or if the story was just that good, but I was so excited about each entry. It�??s based on the comic book of the same name and was an emotional rollercoaster. Each scene was compelling and had some really tough choices; each choice you make changes the story in dramatic ways. If you didn�??t tear up at the end, you may be a zombie. With its hand-drawn graphics and its story, this is the quality downloadable games should reach for. This is by far the best downloadable game of the year.
4. �??Far Cry 3�?� (PS3, Xbox 360, PC): My favorite shooter of the year. It has a huge open world, way too many things you can do and explore, gorgeous environments and graphics, and one of the craziest stories I have seen in a game in a while. Not a great multiplayer game, but it has the best first player campaign of any FPS game I have ever played.
5. LittleBigPlanet (PS Vita): �??LBP�?� is a cute and quirky platform game. The story is hilarious, and the level design is genius. What makes this game special is it has creation tools where you can make your own game and submit it for others to play. This essentially creates a free app store on the PS Vita, so for a low price, you can have a game you can play forever.
Honorable Mention: �??Dishonored�?� (PS3, Xbox 360, PC): �??Dishonored�?� is a new IP that came out in a year almost dominated by sequels. This game take the FPS and stealth game genres and turns them on their heads with cool powers, interesting environments, gorgeous graphics, and a morality system that changes the game in fun ways. �??Dishonored�?� was one of the most interesting new experiences I had this year.

how many times can you charge an iPad when the morphie is at full charge
- Asked by David G
mophie Juice Pack Powerstation DUO Battery - 6000 mAh
Product No Longer Available
3 Answers from the Community
Best Answer:
I have had the mophie Duo for about 3 months and from my experience it has a total of about 4 full iphone charges. (give or take a few % batt pts) and ipads take about twice as much power as an iphone charge.
so 4 iphone charges, or 2 ipad charges, or 1 ipad and two iphone charges (roughly)
(this is when the Mophie is on 4 green LED lights (FULLY charged)
- Answered by Phillip P from Milwaukee
check whatever mAh your ipad is and subtract that amount from the mAh of whichever mophie battery pack you have. not the perfect way but gives a close estimate.
iphone 5 = 1440 mAh
Mophie Juice Pack = 6000 mAh
you do the math ;}
- Answered by Matthew H from San Diego
According to another review I read, it gives a iPad 3 a 30-40% power boost.

The Rise and Fall of Eddie Perez
Hartford's Mayor on the Hot Seat
I don't know Eddie Perez, the embattled mayor of Hartford, Connecticut. But when you assign a story, edit the story, work with the photographer, see the story in layout, write a title, then see the story in the June 2006 Yankee (Eddie Perez: Mayor of Hartford), you can't help but feel some sort of affinity. So last week, when the news broke that the state of Connecticut was charging Eddie Perez with bribery, fabricating evidence, and conspiracy to fabricate evidence, well, it shook those of us who worked on the story. In the story he was portrayed by the people of Hartford as a local hero and a role model. The first Latino mayor of Hartford was an inspiration across the region.
Here's part of what we published in 2006:
In trying to create better days ahead for Hartford, Perez draws on his own unlikely journey to City Hall. He sits in the regal mayor's office and speaks of his mother, on welfare with nine children; tenements so desperate that the family moved 21 times in eight years; junkies in the hallways; riots in the streets; friends who died; brothers addicted to drugs and sent to prison; his own involvement with a gang called the Ghetto Brothers.
"I model the behavior I want [kids] to follow," he says. "I'm an example of the reality that it can be done."
Then, in 2001, after just about everyone had given up on Hartford — one of America's poorest cities in one of America's richest states — Perez became the first Latino mayor in Hartford history.
He was reelected in 2003, this time to a four-year term, and handed a new city charter that strengthened the mayor's powers. Years of weak-mayor/city manager government had failed miserably. One city manager, in the early 1990s, had commuted from Chicago. Hartford had ceded control of its schools, its economic development, even its downtown parking, to the state. Hartford had been in freefall for decades, symbolized by the night in 1978 when the roof of the Hartford Civic Center collapsed under heavy snow just hours after a college basketball game. The city's lone professional sports franchise, hockey's Whalers, left town. Football's New England Patriots spurned a generous offer to move into a new riverfront stadium. Hartford, the nation's insurance capital, was mockingly called "America's File Cabinet" by a Boston newspaper columnist.
Now, in the early summer of 2006, Perez presides over a city that bills itself, optimistically, as "New England's Rising Star."
"I live the American dream every day," he says.
Hartford needed Eddie Perez to be as good as his word. But the state charges that a contractor who had done many jobs for the city also did more than $40,000 worth of work on Perez's house, apparently without charge. At least until investigations began and cancelled checks were produced-all of which led to the charge of fabricating evidence. We don't know how any of this will eventually play out. We do have, for starters, Eddie Perez's apology-which has not calmed the waters in the city.
"First, I wish to apologize to the people of Hartford. My lapse in judgment in using a city contractor to perform work on my house was inexcusable. Though I firmly believe that I have not committed a crime, I have allowed the appearance of impropriety to color how those may view my administration. For this, I am truly sorry and take full responsibility.
"As you know, I turned over records and cancelled checks showing the payment for the work performed by the contractor in question, Carlos Costa. Costa is a longtime friend and a capable contractor. In spring of 2005, he began the project to renovate my bathroom and install a new kitchen countertop in my house.

A TOTAL of 17 heart disorder patients who were flown to Fortis Escorts Heart Institute in India for subsidized heart surgeries returned at the weekend after successful surgery.
The patients received treatment through support of the Lions Club of Dar es Salaam (Host) in collaboration with Regency Medical Centre and the Ministry of Health in Zanzibar. Upon arrival at Julius Nyerere International Airport, the patients were received by Lions Club members, relatives and friends.
Dr Ali Amour of Mnazi Mmoja Hospital in Zanzibar, who escorted the patients said they are all in good condition after surgery. Most of the patients had openings in their hearts while others had problems with their valves.
Among the patients was Ms Mbaima Zuberi from the Maasai community who had her malfunctioning valve replaced with an artificial one.
"My mother was in critical condition before the surgery and she could hardly walk even for a short distance. This has, however, changed after the surgery" her son, Zuber Mhondelo who accompanied her, said.
He added: "So many thanks to Dr Rajni Kanabar and Regency Medical Centre which discovered the problem of my mother. We were well received and treated in India and even India's State Minister for External Affairs, Ms Preneet Kaur visited us."
Ms Adriana Gaitan, a mother of nine-month-old Shares, said his son had holes in his heart and due to that he could not breathe properly and vomited from time to time due to that complication but after successful surgery he is improving fast.
"I commend doctors at Fortis Escorts. They did their best to make our dreams come true and as you look at him he is comfortable now, thanks to Ministry of Health in Zanzibar and the Lions Club members who made this trip possible and all well wishers who contributed," she said.
Lion Dr Rajni Kanabar, who is convener of the heart babies project in Lions Club of Dar es Salaam (host), said the Indian minister visited the group and she was deeply touched by the Tanzania Babies Heart Project.
According to Dr Kanabar, the minister was pleased by the project which continues to provide "new lease of life" to patients with repairable heart defects who otherwise succumb to needless premature deaths.
Dr Kanabar said the minister presented them with gifts and wished them a long life ahead and prayed that they become useful citizens of Tanzania. Dr Kanabar said Dhulkhulaifat Salum, a two-year-old baby from Tanzania had problems digesting foods and despite undergoing surgery in Tanzania still felt no respite.
The Co-convener of the project, Lion Shiraz Rashid, also recorded special thanks for regular supporter - Dr Reginald Mengi for sponsoring five heart surgeries for children from Uganda.

Turns out, our adulated editor-in-chief may have a thing or two to say about dating after all. In an excerpt from this week's editorial about Jewish philanthropy at the Playboy Mansion, Rob notes what he thinks comprises a cute Jewish bunny:
After I left, I was told, Hef came down to the courts for a moment, accompanied by two fully clothed aspiring models/actresses. But there were plenty of attractive women if, like me, you find smart, successful and charitable middle-aged Jewish women totally hot.
For most Jewish gals, smart and successful does not an attractive appearance make. Hence, a little self-charity begs stylists, beauticians and yoga instructors to ensure women get noticed for wisdom and not wrinkles. It's called "Damage Control" and it's happening tonight—a reading reveals beauty secrets and boils—at Book Soup.

One of the 4.5 release big features is supposed to be importing of fbx files. I cannot get this to work.
Here is my workflow;
1) Shape genesis character
2) Export to fbx - baking all the morphs (I'm only animating bones not blend shapes)
3) Animate fbx file in Motionbuilder 2012
so far so go…
4) Reimport fbx file back into the original DAZ studio file
the result…
A genesis skeleton is imported, fully animated, but the animation is not on the DAZ character - thus rendering it totally useless to my needs.
I tried exporting BVH from MB but DAZ totally messes up the imported bvh file.
I have tried exporting out the newly imported fbx from DAZ as a bvh. This has some success but it still isn't quite right because the feet drift around.
Any hints would be appreciated.

Say: Hi guys!
Think: Love Felix, but Linus and Oona aren't my style. They go together though, at least imo.
These are my daughters Beatrix Dorothy and Phoebe Anna.

Say: Hi there Lilia and Heidi. :)
Think: Lilia and Heidi are both super cute. Heidi is my name and I love it. Rionach is really unique and pretty, but I'm rather sick of Niamh. I know it's Irish, but it's honestly becoming such a filler middle in so many other countries. I'd either have given Heidi an Irish filler middle to match Niahm like Maeve, or Lilia a unique Irish middle name to match Rionach.
This is my daughter Reverie Esther.
Say: Hi there Opal, Thelma. :)
Think: Opal Susannah is so sweet! Opal Antoinette is one of my very favourite names and Opal Susannah sounds so pretty together. Then Thelma Verity is totally fun and spunky. I love the set for sisters!
These are my godchildren Dominic, Lucille, Finley and Evelyn. They go by Dom, Lucy, Finn and Evie every now and then.
Say: Hi!
Think: Lucian is okay; it's a name of one of my old characters, so I get a very fantasy feel from it. Thackery is a guilty pleasure (an coincidentally was also the name of a character- however, he later became Zachariah). Wilhelmina Soleil isn't at all to my taste, but Willa is really cute. Augusta Delphine isn't something I'd really use either, and I don't like the nickname Aggie.
These are the twins boys from next door, Jasper William and Caspian Theodore, and their little sister, Rose Evangeline. And this is Rose's best friend, Sarah Madeleine.

Orange going high def in 2010
Orange is soon to offer a "superior experience" as far as call quality goes with roll-out of a wider speech bandwidth across its network.

There is an AS/400 command (I don't remember exactly) that takes a database file and converts it to a stream file on the AS/400. It will even put it on a NT box with commas between the fields and so forth. The command is "Convert To Export File" or "Convert To Import File". Once it's converted a PC attached to the AS/400 could then copy the file anywhere. You probably have to be at release 4.4 of OS/400. -Chuck Landress Larry Bottorff wrote: > Hello, > > I have a day job (I'm a comp sci at Wichita State) at a Kansas county gov > (Harvey) where lot of data is in an AS400.
