1991 Dodge D150 Problems
A condition may develop where the fuel gauge reads empty with too much fuel still in the fuel tank. Our technicians tell us that installing a new wire harness that provides a common ground for the fuel gauge and sending should correct this issue.
Oil leaks from the valve cover gaskets, timing cover gasket, distributor o-ring, and rear main seal area are common. The leak at the rear main seal area is generally not the seal itself but the bearing cap to the engine block seal. An oil leak could also be internal to the distributor, if oil is found inside the distributor then the distributor should be replaced.
Vehicles equipped with 12" diameter rear brakes may encounter premature rear brake shoe wear. If it is found that the brake system is functioning as designed the repair would be to replace the affected brake shoes with revised parts.

Retaliation at VA common, watchdog group finds
WASHINGTON — A pharmacy supervisor at the VA was placed on leave after complaining about errors and delays in delivering medications to patients at a hospital in Palo Alto, Calif. In Pennsylvania, a doctor was removed from clinical work after complaining that on-call doctors were refusing to go to a VA hospital in Wilkes-Barre.
Medical professionals from coast to coast have pointed out problems at the VA, only to suffer retaliation from supervisors and other high-ranking officials, according to a report released on Monday by a private government watchdog.
The report compiled by the Project on Government Oversight, a group that conducts investigations and works with whistle-blowers, is based on comments and complaints filed by nearly 800 current and former VA employees and veterans. Those comments indicate that concerns about the VA go far beyond the long waiting times or falsified appointment records that have received much recent attention, extending to the quality of health care services veterans receive, the report said.
The group set up a website in mid-May for complaints and said it has received allegations of wrongdoing from 35 states and the District of Columbia.
"A recurring and fundamental theme has become clear: VA employees across the country fear they will face repercussions if they dare to raise a dissenting voice," said Danielle Brian, the group's executive director.
The report from the group, known as POGO, emerged a day before the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee was to hold a hearing on the nomination of Robert McDonald to be VA secretary.
A federal investigative agency says it is examining 67 claims of retaliation by supervisors at the VA against employees who filed whistle-blower complaints. The independent Office of Special Counsel said 30 of the complaints about retaliation have passed the initial review stage.

No Saint Patrick's Day celebration is complete without a loaf of freshly baked Irish soda bread. It's name comes from the use of baking soda as the leaving agent in the bread instead of yeast. The mixing of baking soda with buttermilk causes a chemical reaction (carbon dioxide) which makes the dough rise. In this recipe, sunflower seeds and oats have been added to give the bread some texture but feel free use raisins or currants. Serve this Irish soda bread with a stick of heavenly Irish butter.
3 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 T baking powder
3/4 tsp baking soda
1 cup sunflower seeds (1/4 cup for decoration)
1 cup oats
1 tsp salt
2 c. buttermilk
scant 1/2 c. water
Put oven to 400 F
Mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl and make a well in the center. Add the buttermilk and stir until you have a dry pale dough.
Add water a little at a time until the dough comes together. Make sure you don't add too much water as this can make the dough too wet and give the loaf an impossibly hard crust.
Lightly dust a workspace with some flour. Knead the dough and keep adding flour till it becomes easy to work with and roll into a ball.
Place the ball on a lined baking sheet and shape it out into a circle or an oval shape like the photo above.
Score a cross into the loaf with a knife and sprinkle the 1/4 cup of sunflower seeds on top, pushing them into the dough gently. Bake for 20 mins, turn the tray around, and bake for another 20 mins.
Let cool for 20-30 mins. If you cut into it as soon as it's out of the oven, the bread will turn doughy at the centre and won't be a very nice texture.

I love cinnamon, because it makes me feel good. Just the smell of it instantly brings back warm and fuzzy memories of home. Even more than that, these days cinnamon is highly touted for its health benefits. Regardless of the memories it invokes or the health benefits, most can't deny anything made with cinnamon tastes good. Below are several of my favorite recipes made with cinnamon.
1. Snickerdoodles
I remember the first time I ever had Snickerdoodles I was visiting my Aunt Mary in Chicago almost 40 years ago. Yes, they made that much of an impression. To this day, I always make a double batch of Snickerdoodles. One is baked right then and the other is frozen, in batches, for later.
For the serious cinnamon lover, try this recipe for Ulitmate Snickerdoodles.
2. Cinnamon Rolls
My husband still tells the story of how our home was filled with the wonderful aroma of cinnamon and freshly baked bread for a couple of weeks straight. We were up to our elbows in cinnamon rolls trying to find the Ultimate Cinnamon Roll recipe, and we did. If you don't have the time to make Ultimate Cinnamon Roll recipe you can make the dough in the bread machine. Even less time? This recipe for Easy Cinnamon Rolls is pretty good as well.
3. Cinnamon Walnut Biscotti
This Cinnamon Walnut Biscotti is not only good with a hot cup of coffee or tea, but it makes an outstanding homemade gift.
Never made biscotti before? It's very easy with these Step by Step Photo Instructions.
4. Apple Spice Cake
This is a tasty fall recipe for Apple Spice Cake. Not only is it made with cinnamon, but you'll find nutmeg, allspice and apple schnapps in the recipe, too.
Apples are the perfect fruit to go with cinnamon. Below are a couple of other recipes that pair apples and cinnamon together.

This. I'm glad someone else can actually notice the big picture, and look at things rationally.
No team ever unloads, even the really bad teams. A team like Buffalo might sell off 1 or 2 key guys, and that's it. I also never said anything about buying or selling. I simply said trade. So there was no reason to believe I would want a trade to make the playoffs.
I would rather miss the playoffs and get a shot at a possible generational talent than make the 8th spot to be one and done.
Even if we only have a 2% chance at getting that #1 pick if we miss the playoffs I'm all in for that. I know you would appreciate that because of you being an advocate of low percentage chances.

What are the "5Es"?
Creating a safe route for every child requires that a Safe Routes to School Traffic Safety Improvement Plan be developed. The basic strategies for coming up with solutions include what is described as the 4Es:
Step 1: Form a Safe Routes to School Task Force that involves parents, school administrators and teachers, neighbors and community organizations, city officials and staff members, and students.
Step 2: Evaluate existing conditions through parents surveys, student surveys, traffic counts, injury data, speed checks, safe routes checklists, and schools policies relevant to school travel modes and physical activity (i.e., PE requirements, recess time, and after-school activities).
Step 3: Expand your circle by presenting findings to the community, holding a design workshop, having an open house, and convening a strategy meeting.
Step 4: Develop a project list and accompanying map by identifying problem areas, setting priorities, grouping projects by geographic area, identifying short term and long term solutions, costing out your program, and using the whole toolbox of solutions (education, encouragement, enforcement, and engineering).
Step 5: Make it official by going through the regular planning process, and having your plan adopted in the city plan.
Step 6: Get improvements funded by developing a funding program, identifying funding opportunities and working with your city to apply for grants.
The following suggestions include specific ideas and processes that have been utilized by a variety of schools and programs in Colorado. These suggested process steps should be used along side the examples provided in the NHTSA toolkit.
How to include youth perspectives in the development of the SR2S improvement plan.
Possible outcomes and learning objectives for SR2S education.
Identify target audiences and age groups for SR2S education program.
Possible traffic safety problems where enforcement is part of the solution.
Establish a process for referrals to law enforcement – Design a communication process that encourages students and parents to notify the school and police of the occurrence of a crash or near miss during school commute trips involving auto, bus, pedestrian, or bicycle transportation. Include the Fort Collins Office of Transportation in this reporting system to help produce more valuable data.
Enlist the help of law enforcement with a number of traffic safety duties.
Obtain school area maps – Obtain maps of the neighborhood and school zone from the Fort Collins of Transportation.
Request an engineering study – A traffic investigation from the Fort Collins Office of Transportation can help determine the scope of the problem. Suggested components of a study may include the following:
Identify opportunities to make engineering improvements.
Customize school maps and SR2S plan – Based on the improvements, identify recommended safer routes for walking and biking to school on the school maps. Work with the Fort Collins Office of Transportation to customize your SR2S maps and plan.
Strategies to create awareness opportunities – Provide opportunities for every child and parent to acquire the knowledge, skills, values, attitudes, and commitment needed to walk and bike to school safely.
Develop appropriate encouragement activities – Using data, select age-specific activities that address concerns. For example:
Identify and utilize public and private service providers best suited to implement each of the goals.

No one here should have to replace this, or replace that to get the 5900 to work properly.
I'm sorry, but I for one am not going to wrap my case in aluminum foil or what ever...
BTW: Mine was on an APC BackUps Pro 1100...
Something doesn't sit well with me on your statement, so please allow me to explain my opinion and see if you might be able to see what I do.
Why did you get PC3500 for your P4/Abit IC7-G instead of PC3200? Simple, you took steps to ensure the potential for success with your P4/mobo combo or you got what the sales man said would be a great system without looking into it.
With the way some companies had been lately using cheap capacitors to save money *MSI, I wouldn't hold it past them to find a way to recoup some lost profits from the NV30 to possibly have some infleunce on what is going on. However, with the amounts of people who have the problem vs. the amount who don't kinda make it sound system specific. The only thing I keep seeing is 5900. Would be cool to see brand names rather than just the model # of which card you have and is causing the problem. Even put it in your signature to there is no confusion as to what you had.
Saying my 5900 this or my 9800 that doesn't specify if the problem is chip related or manufacturer related.
Back to what I was saying about your Abit mobo/memory, you took some steps to ensure it would be successful. Ever hear that expression "You wouldn't put 87 octane in a Ferrari expecting it to perform like a race car would you?" ATi had similar problems with the first version of their 9700Pro if you recall which ended up changing the PCB design a bit with the addition of 2 capacitors added to a section near the GPU. ATi also said it was driver related although why add the additional capacitors on the PCB then? Because they are taking measures to ensure the success of the product.
There seems to be a new trend on the rise if you hadn't noticed. Components of all sorts are becoming more sensitive it seems to other things. Hell, we even have Speed Spectrum as a BIOS options now that is suppose to aid in the prevention of EMI (Electromagnetic Impulse). This would certainly suggest that components are becoming more sensitive and require certain components to ensure it success.
I have two good friends that purchased a Gainward 5900U and a MSI 5900 non-ultra. The 5900U is run at default speeds while the 5900 non-ultra is running near or at 500/900. Both people do not have the problems that are being described. Both have Antec 500watt PSU's but only one has a UPS (Guy with the 5900 non-ultra).
So, I am not saying it is one or the other. I am saying however don't count out one or the other.
I hope the problem is resolved soon and would hope you all would get more specific than just popping in here and posting you have the problem and not leave system specs. This post was also to everyone and not just you ronterry, hope you will be able to find which things I talked about related to you.

I'm sorry for that. If Rick Snyder expanded the Medicaid rolls then you could get on then, and I guess the law didn't account for the spitefulness of GOP Governors. But that's really on the Governors and no one else.
I hope that Snyder realizes pretty quickly that he's endangering the lives of his citizens and changes course, damn the politics.
Travel's fatal to prejudice, bigotry, narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things can't be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's life.

Tried the preggo pizza last night at 40 weeks + 1 day. It was delicious and we had a wonderful time. Baby got really active as soon as I started eating it, but in the end all I got was heartburn. So the waiting game and another day of freedom continues.
Trying to patient for a natural arrival to avoid induction at 41 weeks. I've been very active this whole time, lots of walking, stretching, and baby is in correct position. But was still not dilated at 40 weeks.

It would alter the present scheme, which applies to organisations that qualified in 1999 but does not include newly-formed charities.
The change would raise the threshold and remove the exemption from organisations which now have a higher turnover averaged over the past three years.
Extending the scheme would mean up to 5000 third-sector organisations would be exempt from the charges, the Government said. There are about 5800 members of the exemption scheme.

Associated Press, Published May 17 2013
"He was the one that told me, and this is kind of corny, but it isn't when you're 18 or 19 years old — he told me 'In order to finish first, first you must finish,'" Martin said. "That stuck with me always."
The NASCAR garage was full of Trickle stories on Friday, a day after the 71-year-old racer died of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. An old-school driver with an odd name, and a guy who earned an almost cult-like following among fans, Trickle was mostly remembered Friday for his role as a mentor to many drivers who went on to have far greater success in NASCAR than Trickle ever achieved.
A short-track star from Wisconsin Rapids, Wis., Trickle was believed to have won up to 1,000 races while inspiring hundreds of racers throughout the Midwest. Among them was Hall of Famer Rusty Wallace, a St. Louis native who toured the same Midwest circuit and raced Trickle down to the wire for the 1983 ASA championship.
"When I was short-track racing, I would call him every Monday morning and he would always help me with race setups and stuff," Wallace said. "He and I had such a good time telling little stories, but he was the guy that taught me almost everything in the (Midwestern) American Speed Association. And he was the guy that I battled right to the end for my 1983 ASA championship. I barely beat the guy that taught me everything."
Martin said he, Wallace and the late Alan Kulwicki, a Wisconsin native, owed their success to Trickle.
"We wouldn't have been the racers that we were when we got here had we not come under his influence," Martin said. "For the influence that he had on us, and the etiquette and the way he raced — he raced us real hard on the race track, but off the race track, he was very free with parts or advice. He gave freely. Really, really good dude. I'm confused and broken-hearted about what happened."
Audio released Friday by the Lincoln County (N.C.) emergency dispatch center revealed a calm Trickle stating his location in the Forest Lawn Cemetery, and telling the dispatcher where to find a '93 pickup truck.
"There's going to be a dead body. A suicide," said the caller, who never identified himself as Trickle.
"Are you there?" asked the dispatcher.
"I'm the one," he responded.
The call ended as the dispatcher said she was sending help.
Trickle's brother, Chuck, told The Las Vegas Review-Journal that his brother had been having constant chest pains, and his obituary posted on the website for the Warlick Funeral Home in Lincolnton said doctors could not find the source of "severe chronic pain."
"His family as well as all those who knew him, find his death very hard to accept, and though we will hurt from losing him for some time, he's no longer suffering and we take comfort knowing he's with his very special angel," said a statement from the family, referring to the Trickle's oldest granddaughter, Nicole Bowman, who was killed in a car accident nearly 12 years ago.
"Dick's passion in life was his racing. He touched many lives throughout his career, provided memories for many that will last a lifetime. Many thought when he retired he would continue as a car owner, but he was driver at heart, he wanted to be behind the wheel and be in control of his destiny," the statement continued. "We believe he felt himself no longer able to be behind that wheel of life or be the man he only knew how to be because of the pain and suffering."
Trickle is survived by his wife, Darlene, three children and three grandchildren.
Trickle didn't move full time to NASCAR until 1989, when he was 47 years old. He made 303 career starts in the Cup Series, and although he never won a Cup race, he scored two wins in the second-tier series.
His death shocked 2003 NASCAR champion Matt Kenseth, a Wisconsin native who last spoke to Trickle last July after Kenseth won a Late Model race at Slinger Speedway.
"He kind of peeked in the trailer there afterwards — of course he asked if we had any beer in there — and man, we sat in there for two hours," Kenseth said. "That was the last time I saw him. We talked for two hours and he always had a lot of — he had a unique way of looking at things, he had a ton of common sense and he was really smart and always had a really funny way of putting things. Ninety percent of the stuff he told me through all the years I raced with him always proved to be right.
"I'm still in shock. I don't really get it. I don't really know what all went on there. That's about it."

Foster Kids Abused Before Arriving at Your Home
Monday, August 20th, 2012
If you've tuned in lately, you know that my family is enrolled to take a 24-hour foster care training course via the Los Angeles Country family and foster care services here in Calif. You may recall that the first time we enrolled, we had to back out because six weeks of 4-hour courses were held on Saturdays which makes it hard to finish since we have our Bio son Sam. For us to be educated, both my husband and I have to enroll together so what do we do with son Sam for six weeks of weekends?
The second time we enrolled for foster care training to foster-to-adopt a toddler or young child from the LA foster care system, there is no excuse. I bailed. I stopped planning on going. Not son Sam, or husband Darrin or anyone but me. I got a great contract job and had to travel for a few months, so I got out of it again.
Causing some friction in the marriage that I am waffling pout of taking this classes. Too busy, so terrifying, what if we get a freaky kid that harms our bio son? What if we get this emotionally scarred kid and cannot give her back? What f she ruins our life? You have to be so brave to take an older kid from foster care, but there are so many older children that need our help.
For advice I looked into the Federal government programs for foster care kids to find out real stats on how many children have been abused, sexually abused, etc. The stats are it will likely happen to kids older than 11:
"In some cases, you will not be certain that abuse has occurred, but you may suspect it. You may even be exploring becoming a foster or adoptive parent to a child in the foster care system; many of these children have been abused or neglected—physically, emotionally, or sexually—before coming into care. You may feel confused, frightened, and unsure of the impact the sexual abuse of a child may have on your child and family. It is important for you to understand that the term 'sexual abuse' describes a wide range of experiences.
Many factors—including the severity of abuse as well as others discussed later in this fact sheet—affect how children react to sexual abuse and how they recover. Most children who have been abused do not go on to abuse others, and many go on to live happy, healthy, successful lives. As parents, you will play an important role in your child's recovery from childhood abuse."
Would you ever adopt an older kid that comes from an abused background? I am having a really tough time.Add a Comment

Although this book was first printed in 1987, it is amazingly current today (1999). I have been using this book since 1987 when I build my stand-alone PV-powered home in Prescott Arizona, and referred to Mr. Strong's book on a regular basis during design and construction of the solar-electric system. I still use this book today -- as the primary textbook in two classes that I teach at Arizona State University: "Introduction to Solar Energy and Photovoltaics" and "Photovoltaic System Design".

When we meet Harry, he has already been, in essence, demoted by being kicked off of the elite Robbery/Homicide squad and stuck in Homicide in the Hollywood division. But Harry is a pure detective, and will work every case with the same single-minded tenacity that gets results while alienating him from his fellows and irritating his bosses.
A throw-away death of a junkie found in a drainage pipe would have gone unnoticed if anyone but Harry Bosch had caught the call. But Bosch, while having a lousy personal life IS a superb detective, and he sees what many would miss. Not only that, but the victim is someone from Harry's past which further prompts him to look deeper. Harry's investigation causes him to cross paths with the FBI and his conflicts become even more personal when he becomes romantically involved with a female FBI agent.
The story unfolds with many surprises and the meticulous detail that we will come to expect from Connelly in the series. First rate all the way. A great beginning.
Connelly has an excellent eye for describing real life: his scenes are gritty and intoxicatingly detailed and his ear for dialogue is superb. His characters are memorable; writing with the benefit of hindsight, the Harry Bosch series has proved to be a modern classic. The old adage is "write what you know about". Connelly knows crime (he was a newspaper crime reporter) and he knows LA; like the back of his hand. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good story. Stick through his next, "The Black Ice", which is very good but not as good as this, and then move into "Concrete Blonde" and "The Last Coyote", which are also superb.
The "iceberg" plot where a complex scheme is only gradually exposed is a crime fiction standard. Connelly is, even in his first novel, a master at this type of plot-line. His characters are three-dimensional and interesting, especially Bosch and his uneasy ally, FBI agent Eleanor Wish. Best of all, Connelly knows his territory--a former Los Angeles Times reporter, he knows LA and the LAPD (I suspect he still has sources in the department). The Black Echo is a superb novel.

Paxfest honors newborn whose life was cut short by cancer
Paxton Andrews' parents thought their newborn had a cold when they took him to the pediatrician. Sadly, it turned out that he had cancer. He died just shy of 5 months old.
His parents, John and Danna, who live in Bay View, decided to honor his memory last year with the inaugural Paxfest, which featured local bands including Fever Marlene and Maritime and food from Maxie's Southern Comfort and Blue's Egg. The event raised more than $15,000 for the Pablove Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to funding pediatric cancer research co-founded by Milwaukee native and Elektra Records president Jeff Castelaz, and named after his late son Pablo. »Read Full Article

Everyone indeed has their own take on handling but there are a lot of good reasons why 99% of all bikes have smaller front tires than the rear and it isn't looks. I set my friends CRF450 up for a local short track/TT. I asked about the track and if there were any tire rules. He said you could run knobbies if you wanted. I left his 21" MX knobby on the front and put a flat track tire on the back. Some of his buddies saw the setup before Friday night and were telling him it wouldn't work. Come Friday night, ALL of those guys were behind him. He said that in just a few weeks depending on the track conditions most everybody was running the same setup. I don't think the knobby has any more grip on hard pack but I do think the profile and less weight of the knobby makes the bike turn and handle a LOT quicker. Later on my friend was short tracking practicing with Ben and Eric Bostrum. He told them the story and they both immediately said that they very often like to run the same setup IF the track will let them.
In my experience, the bigger front tire you put on an airhead, the more they want to tank slap.

Published 01/17/2013, The Jamestown Sun
Grand Forks Sen. Mac Schneider, the minority leader of the North Dakota Senate, said Tuesday after the governor's State of the State address that "the time for high-fives is over." He was referring, apparently, to Gov. Jack Dalrymple's upbeat assessment of the state's condition and his faith in state government's ability and responsibility to fund obvious priorities.Word count: 364

I just got a Jack Russell Terrrier- and everthing that I have read about them says -GIVE THEM JOBS! Well, what I was wondering is: What kind of jobs can you recommend?? I am a new dog owner and was wondering what type of things other Jack Russell owners have done to keep their work-aholics occupied.

CBS News Correspondent Steve Hartman goes "On the Road" to discover how small acts of kindness built an avalanche of handcrafted "snow." The report will be broadcast tonight, Jan. 11 on the CBS EVENING NEWS WITH SCOTT PELLEY (6:30-7:00 PM, ET) on the CBS Television Network.
In tonight's report, Hartman travels to Hamden, Conn., where the state Parent Teacher Association has "snow" piled high in its office as a sign of support for Newtown, Conn., the site of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. The boxes contain homemade snowflakes sent to the PTA from around the world.
"Literally an avalanche of snow," said Jim Accomando, the organization's president. "We're buried in mail."
The Connecticut Parent Teacher's Association last month requested that fellow PTA members from across the country send "snowflakes for Sandy Hook" to create a "winter wonderland" at the renamed Sandy Hook Elementary School. Today, the PTA lobby is stuffed floor to ceiling with boxes from around the United States and more than 50 countries. The snowflakes were crafted mostly by children who poured their hearts into the project.
And the boxes keep arriving.
"We'll be here until the last piece of mail is opened," Accomando said.
Patricia Shevlin is the Executive Producer of the CBS EVENING NEWS WITH SCOTT PELLEY.

Two new developments begin
Padre Island, Southside work starts
Two new housing developments in the city's hot growth areas are offering high-end properties for a lifestyle of luxury.
Palm Bay Village on Padre Island and the King's Lake Subdivision on the city's Southside had groundbreaking ceremonies Thursday, adding to the growth of those areas.
Associate broker and Re/Max Metro Properties agent Gene Guernsey said the goal is to create a pedestrian-style environment.
The 53 Palm Bay Village townhomes will be on 3.5 acres of land bordered by South Padre Island Drive and Whitecap Boulevard.
"We want to create a place where people arrive in a car and don't have to get back in it until it's time for them to leave," Guernsey said.
A $300,000 swimming pool with waterfalls and lush gardens will be at the center of the village.
Guernsey, who has worked on more than 30 developments on the island, said the city's Packery Channel project has provided an area perfect for high-density growth for projects such as hotels, condominiums and townhomes. Packery Channel provides easy access for pleasure boats to the Gulf of Mexico.
"Packery Channel is a huge thing because it gives us direct access to the Gulf of Mexico and creates a potential for future growth," Guernsey said. "The important thing is to continue to create a pedestrian-style environment."
Guernsey's two- and three-bedroom townhomes range from $170,000 to $249,000.
The townhomes are available for nightly and weekly rental pools as well as for those who choose to live there permanently.
Fourteen of the 53 homes are under contract.
On the city's Southside, Jacob Sudhoff's King's Lake Subdivision will be an upscale, gated community for homeowners who want a little more property and are willing to dig deep in their pockets.
Located on Yorktown between Weber and Everhart, King's Lake waterfront lots overlook Oso Bay and range in price from $99,000 to $999,000.
The $999,000 lot is a 10-acre tract with a private lake.
Ashley Martin, Sudhoff Properties agent, said 12 of the 25 lots are under contract.

What You Can Expect
Day 1: Hobart -- Strahan (L, D)
After an early morning departure from Hobart, take a scenic drive through the farming country northwest of Hobart to reach Mount Field National Park. Here, take a guided nature walk through the park's famous tall trees, known as swamp gums, and visit beautiful Russell Falls. The next drive is one of Australia's most scenic, taking you to Australia's deepest lake, Lake St Clair, in Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park. After time to explore this wilderness region, another scenic drive brings you to your private lodge accommodation in the west coast village of Strahan.
Accommodation: Private lodge in Strahan - Braeside Bed and Breakfast
Day 2: Strahan (no meals included)
Spend your free day in Strahan how you choose, and book any optional activities you want to do on the day. You can upgrade to include a quad-biking adventure on the Henty sand dunes, with views over the wild west coast, or go jet boating in the rainforest-covered mountains on the King River.

Accommodation: Private lodge in Strahan - Braeside Bed and Breakfast
Day 3: Strahan -- Launceston (B, L)
After breakfast, take a scenic drive to Cradle Mountain, one of Australia's most popular bushwalking destinations. Go on a guided hike through this rugged landscape, or follow an easier trail to Dove Lake. You'll see birds and wildlife on your walk, and perhaps even spot an elusive wombat. In the afternoon, drive to the mid-north coast town of Launceston, where the tour ends with a convivial group farewell dinner (not included).
Customer Reviews
December 2014
Steve, the tour leader, couldn't do enough to help and showed an amazing depth of knowledge of the areas visited. Although the hostel at Strahan is rather basic it was comfortable enough for 2 nights. Our fellow travellers were a great bunch and the mix of age groups was a bonus. Some concern that the elderly mini bus would actually make the distance and would have felt more comfortable with seat belts, which I thought would have been mandatory by now.
December 2013
Wonderful guide -- Steve was knowledgeable, helpful, hard working.
The accomodations and meals were a bit sparse. Would have much preferred a genuine hotel.

The St. Louis Cardinals are locked in a contentious NL Central race, and they have plenty of matchups with the other two contenders over the next two weeks. In the first of 13 games against the other top division rivals, the Cardinals will try to take sole possession of first place for the first time this month while topping the Cincinnati Reds on Monday night. The Cardinals (76-54) haven't been alone in first place since July 29 and could have ended that drought by finishing off a four-game sweep of Atlanta. Instead, they fell 5-2 on Sunday to the NL East leader and remained tied for first with Pittsburgh after the Pirates' 4-0 loss in San Francisco the same day. "We were looking to get the win and couldn't get it, but it was a really good series for us, winning three games out of four against a tough team," first baseman Allen Craig told the team's website. In his return to the rotation, Tyler Lyons (2-4, 5.09 ERA) will try to help St. Louis keep at least a share of the divisi...

Holy cow, I wrote a book!
You may have noticed that if you take a USB device and plug it into your computer, Windows recognizes it and configures it. Then if you unplug it and replug it into a different USB port, Windows gets a bout of amnesia and thinks that it's a completely different device instead of using the settings that applied when you plugged it in last time. Why is that?
The USB device people explained that this happens when the device lacks a USB serial number.
Serial numbers are optional on USB devices. If the device has one, then Windows recognizes the device no matter which USB port you plug it into. But if it doesn't have a serial number, then Windows treats each appearance on a different USB port as if it were a new device.
(I remember that one major manufacturer of USB devices didn't quite understand how serial numbers worked. They gave all of their devices serial numbers, that's great, but they all got the same serial number. Exciting things happened if you plugged two of their devices into a computer at the same time.)
But why does Windows treat it as a different device if it lacks a serial number and shows up on a different port? Why can't it just say, "Oh, there you are, over there on another port."
Because that creates random behavior once you plug in two such devices. Depending on the order in which the devices get enumerated by Plug and Play, the two sets of settings would get assigned seemingly randomly at each boot. Today the settings match up one way, but tomorrow when the devices are enumerated in the other order, the settings are swapped. (You get similarly baffling behavior if you plug in the devices in different order.)
In other words: Things suck because (1) things were already in bad shape—this would not have been a problem if the device had a proper serial number—and (2) once you're in this bad state, the alternative sucks more. The USB stack is just trying to make the best of a bad situation without making it any worse.
The RunAs program demands that you type the password manually.
Why doesn't it accept a password on the command line?
This was a conscious decision.
If it were possible to pass the password on the command line,
people would start embedding passwords into batch files
and logon scripts, which is laughably insecure.
In other words, the feature is missing to remove the temptation
to use the feature insecurely.
If this offends you and you want to be insecure and pass the password
on the command line anyway (for everyone to see in the command window
title bar), you can write your own program that calls
the CreateProcessWithLogonW function.
(I'm told that there is
a tool available for download
which domain administrators might find useful, though it
solves a slightly different problem.)
If you go snooping around, you may find an empty
C:\Program Files\Xerox directory.
What's that for?
C:\Program Files\Xerox
This directory is being watched by Windows File Protection,
because it needs to protect the file
xrxflnch.exe should it ever show up.
(Why does the directory have to exist in order for Windows File
Protection to be able to watch it?
I'm told it's a limitation of the Windows File Protection engine.
I suspect it may have something to do with the fact that
the FindFirstChangeNotification function
can't watch a directory that doesn't exist.)
Why is xrxflnch.exe so special?
I don't know.
My guess is that it's some file that is frequently overwritten
by setup programs and therefore needs to be protected.
Some people are offended by the special folders like "My Pictures" and "My Music" and delete them, only to find them being re-created. What's going on?
Windows itself is okay with you deleting those folders. Some corporations, for example, remove those folders from their employees' machines because they don't want the employees looking at pictures and listening to music while on the job. (Go figure.) And if the folder is deleted, Windows doesn't try to bring it back.
However, any program can ask for the folder to be re-created. For example, if a program passes the CSIDL_FLAG_CREATE to the SHGetFolderPath function, then Windows will create the specified folder if it doesn't exist. Similarly if it passes pass fCreate = TRUE to the SHGetSpecialFolderPath function.
fCreate = TRUE
If it really troubles you, you can set a creation audit on the My Pictures folder and see which program is re-creating it.
Next time you find yourself debugging in assembly language
(which for some of us is the only way we debug),
here are some machine code tricks you may wish to try out:
It has been pointed out that this works only for functions
that take zero stack parameters; otherwise,
your stack gets corrupted.
More generally, you can use 83 C4 XX 90 90
(ADD ESP, XX; NOP; NOP) where XX is the number of bytes
you need to pop. Personally, I don't remember the machine
code for these instructions so I tend to rewrite the CALL
instruction so it calls the "RETD" at the end of the function.
I prefer these single-byte patches to wholesale erasure with 90
because they are easier to undo if you realize that you want to
restore the code to the way it was before you messed with it.
Here's a tiny little program:
#include <windows.h>
#include <shellapi.h>
int __cdecl main(int argc, char **argv)
if (argc == 3) {
SHELLEXECUTEINFO sei = { sizeof(sei) };
sei.fMask = SEE_MASK_FLAG_DDEWAIT;
sei.nShow = SW_SHOWNORMAL; // added 27 Nov
sei.lpVerb = argv[1];
sei.lpFile = argv[2];
return 0;
This is a little program that takes two parameters,
the first being the verb and the second the file upon which
to execute the verb. Notice that since we exit immediately,
we need to set the SEE_MASK_FLAG_DDEWAIT flag:
Normally, the ShellExecuteEx function assumes that there will
be a message pump running after it returns.
This allows it to return quickly and continue any necessary
DDE conversations as the responses arrive from the DDE server.
But if the thread is exiting or if the thread is not a GUI thread
(both of which are true here), you want to suppress this behavior
because there is no message pump around to complete the DDE
conversation. Setting the SEE_MASK_FLAG_DDEWAIT flag
indicates that the ShellExecuteEx function should finish its
DDE conversation before it returns.
Anyway, I wrote this little program to illustrate two of the
canonical verbs that you can use.
It seems the people don't realize that ShellExecuteEx can be
used to perform these actions, since it gets asked a lot...
shex find %windir%
shex openas C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT
I've seen some confusion over the difference between
the GetKeyState function
the GetAsyncKeyState function.
GetKeyState returns the virtual key state.
In other words,
GetKeyState reports the state of the keyboard
based on the messages you have retrieved from your input queue.
This is not the same as the physical keyboard state:
If the user has typed ahead,
GetKeyState doesn't report those changes
until you use
the PeekMessage function
the GetMessage function
to retrieve the message from your input queue.
If the user has switched to another program,
the GetKeyState function will not see the input
that the user typed into that other program, since that input
was not sent to your input queue.
When should you use GetKeyState and when should
you use GetAsyncKeyState?
For user interface work, you nearly always want
If you are responding to an input message and want to know what
keys were pressed at the time that input was generated, then
you want to use GetKeyState.
For example, if you want to distinguish a left-click of the mouse
from an Alt+LeftClick, you must use
GetKeyState to query the state of the Alt key
(known as VK_MENU for historical reasons).
That's because you want to know whether the Alt key was down
when the user clicked the mouse, not whether the key is
down this very instant.
Whether the user released the Alt key between the time
they clicked and the time you processed the message is
irrelevant. You care that the Alt key was down at the time
of the click.
Note that if you are implementing a context menu handler,
then you shouldn't be using either GetKeyState
or GetAsyncKeyState,
because the context menu can be invoked programmatically
without any user action.
you should test for the CMF_EXTENDEDVERBS flag
to detect whether you should display extended commands
rather than querying the keyboard directly.
Similarly, for
you should be testing the
CMIC_MASK_SHIFT_DOWN flags
if you want to alter your behavior based on the shift states.
Given this primer on the difference between
GetKeyState and
you can now
explain the behavior this user is seeing.

I enjoy poking around diploma mills. Especially the ones that spam my inbox. Like Kennedy-Western University, which describes itself like so:
Since 1984 Kennedy-Western University (KWU) has provided distance and online degree programs to over 30,000 students. KWU is one of the largest non-accredited online universities in the United States. ...
Ah, the magic word: "non-accredited". Translation: "Bogus".
But hey, being non-accredited can't be all bad, right? After all, KWU seems to be proud of the fact that it isn't accredited.
Read on:
Three of four of its faculty of 140 credentialed professors - who are simultaneously employed by major traditional universities throughout the country - hold Ph.D. degrees from accredited universities.
Oops, they're undermining their own statement. Isn't it kind of suspicious that they are bragging that their faculty is so good, they got their degrees from real universities (unlike this one)?
My personal favorite diploma mill is Harrington University. It's fun kicking off a Google search to see how many people put a degree from that institution on their résumé.
If you scroll down a bit on this Swedish web page, you'll find a picture of the building that houses so-called Brentwick University. The photo caption reads,
Brentwick University claims to be on 196 High Street in northern London. This is what it looks like. On the second floor, over the dry cleaner's, lies Cordon Bell Accomodation Agency, a firm which serves as a maildrop and forwards mail on behalf of a series of camera-shy companies, among them "Brentwick University".
It's a somewhat regular scandal in the United States that somebody well-known will be exposed to have been claiming a degree that was obtained by dubious means.
There are several variations on
the SendMessage function,
but some are special cases of others.
The simplest version is SendMessage itself,
which sends a message and waits indefinitely for the response.
The next level up is
which sends a message and waits for the response or until
a certain amount of time has elapsed.
SendMessage is just SendMessageTimeout with an INFINITE timeout.
Another version of SendMessage is
which is like SendMessage except that it doesn't wait for
the response. It returns immediately and ignores the result
produced by the receiving window.
The last SendMessage-style functions is
This sends a message and then returns immediately.
When the recipient finally returns a response, the callback
is called.
SendNotifyMessage is SendMessageCallback with a callback that does nothing.
That's how the four message-sending functions fit together.
Bonus remark:
If you use any of the above send-type functions to send a message
to a window that belongs to the sending thread, the call is made
If I had a nickel each time somebody asked for a feature
that was a security hole...
I'd have a lot of nickels.
For example,
"I want a file that all users can write to.
My program will use it as a common database of goodies."
This is a security hole.
For a start, there's an obvious denial of service attack
by having a user open the file in exclusive mode and never
letting go.
There's also a data tampering attack, where the user
opens the file and write zeros all over it or
merely alter the data in subtle ways.
Your music index suddenly lost all its Britney Spears songs.
(Then again, maybe that's a good thing.
Sneakier would be to edit the index so that when somebody
tries to play a Britney Spears song, they get Madonna instead.)
[Minor typo fixed. 10am]
A colleague from the security team pointed out another problem
with this design: Disk quotas. Whoever created the file is charged
for the disk space consumed by that file,
even if most of the entries in
the file belong to someone else.
If you create the file in your Setup program, then it will most
likely be owned by an administrator. Administrators are exempt
from quotas, which means that everybody can party their data
into the file for free! (Use alternate data streams so you can
store your data there without affecting normal users of the file.)
And if the file is on the system partition (which it probably is),
then users can try to fill up all the available disk space and crash
the system.
If you have a shared resource that you want to let people mess
with, one way to do this is with a service. Users do not access
the resource directly but rather go through the service.
The service decides what the user is allowed
to do with the resource. Maybe some users are permitted only
to increment the "number of times played" counter, while others
are allowed to edit the song titles.
If a user is hogging the resource, the server might refuse connections
for a while from that user.
A file doesn't give you this degree of control over what people
can do with it.
If you grant write permission to a user, then that user can write
to any part of the file.
The user can open the file in exclusive mode and prevent anybody
else from accessing it.
The user can put fake data in the file in an attempt to confuse
the other users on the machine.
In other words, the user can make a change to the system that impacts
how other users can use the system. This sort of "impact other users"
behavior is something that is reserved for administrators.
An unprivileged user should be allowed only to mess up his own life;
he shouldn't be allowed to mess up other users' lives.
Armed with this information, perhaps now you can answer
this question posted to comp.os.ms-windows.programmer a few months ago.
