Welcome to the Game Timer home page. Game Timer is an application for the PalmTM line of devices which takes the place of a mechanical game timer (such as a chess timer).
Game Timer is freeware - no payment is necessary. However, if you would like to support continued development of this application, please see the voluntary payment page.
Version 1.4 of Game Timer is available. Please see the revision history for information about what has changed.
Game Timer version 1.4 (January 23, 2001)
The source is also available to anyone who's interested, under the terms of the GNU General Public License. This version of the application was built using Metrowerks CodeWarrior for PalmOS R5 and tested using the PalmOSTM Emulator, version 2.1d29.
Game Timer version 1.4 source code (January 23, 2001)
The idea for this application came from Joel Nylund, originally for a Chess Timer (based on user feedback, the utility later morphed into a more generic "Game Timer").
I learned PalmOSTM programming through a combination of resources available on the Internet. Please see my Palm links page for the list.
I more recently learned how to use the Metrowerks CodeWarrior environment, and how to apply that to PalmOSTM development, by reading Palm OSTM Programming for Dummies, by Liz O'Hara and John Schettino. (This book happens to include an earlier version of this utility, Chess Timer v1.2 (built using GCC) on the included CD.)

LOS ANGELES (April 18, 2014) Actress Kim Novak, 81, is speaking out about the criticism she received for how she looked on stage at the Academy Awards ceremony last month.
Novak, 81, the star of "Vertigo" and other classic films, said the comments amount to bullying and made her reluctant to go out into public.
She says she has decided to fight back against the jabs that were leveled against her and another veteran actress, Liza Minnelli.
In an interview and open letter, Novak says she's determined to speak out against what she called "bullies" who shouldn't be allowed to affect people's lives.

Good article by Carlton on the zoning denial. Albany has a bad history of decision making, and like the developer said, we will most likely see this as a missed opportunity to develop the tax base because of a vocal few. I wonder what their true objection was?

Their true objection was to protect their children, investments, property, and possessions, from the baby daddies who are drawn to these sorts of developments like a moth to a flame. Judging from the decision by the city, they apparently made a durn good case.

Note... Those "Vocal FEW" ARE the tax base of Albany! Get a grip on reality.......... Albany's TAX BASE is N. W. Albany...Want to increase the tax base?......... Try educating the Locals so they are attractive to businesses besides Wal-Mart. Disposable income attracts businesses NOT Disposable kids.

The tax base is in such dire straits that this project would have been less than a drop in the bucket. DoCo's real problem is tax exempt property which is shown as 24% of all property. In reality, it is over 50% of all property--more is non-taxed than taxed. The true situation, however, will never see light of day in the media who seem content to hide your heads in their sand.
Look at the tax assessor's records on the internet. As a few of literally hundreds of examples, every tax exempt building in the 200 block of Pine is missing a value on the assessor's records, including 240 Pine where the assessor's office is located.
While these buildings would never be taxed, the exclusion of such values in the entire digest easily totals more than $500 million, in my estimation. Such exclusion "masks" the true problem--we have reached the point where an alternative source of revenue needs to be examined and discussed.
Missed opportunity for taxation? Sure, but even a larger "miss" is how the Board of Tax Assessors grants an exemption to properties bought by the Hospital Authority and turned over to Phoebe. How many formerly tax paying medical practices have been removed from the tax rolls as Phoebe marches on?
I am delighted to see tax-paying citizens who are supporting the operation of the city, county, and schools win one for the Gipper. In my estimation, the "true objection" was to protect a diminishing quality of life that has been earned and paid for over a long period of years. It's time to find a way to get folks to stay in Albany and this is a small price to pay!

I know about the seperation of Church and State, but that shouldn't count when it comes to property tax. For now the part of the upkeep for these properties that should be covered by taxes is shifted to the other taxed landowners. Isn't that in essence supporting the Church with Taxpayer funding? Are they denied services from the government in the area, or is this service provided free? If they do not pay for Fire and Police protection through taxes, are they entitled to it? I for one know of several so called Churches in Lee County I wouldn't support if I had the decision to make on my own. However we have allowed this cost to be shifted to the property owners, and we support Churches and Religion we do not wish to support. I wonder how many Bostonians are aware they are supporting that radical Mosque through Property tax exemtion, and how many would approve?
whattheheck 2 years, 7 months ago
GA law provides the basis for the exemption, the BOTA decides how to apply the exemption which is basically for the "sanctuary". Perhaps the BOTA is too lenient in parts of its interpretations. But if you will look at some of the "megas" in the assessor's internet records, you will see some holdings are actually taxed.
One of the problems with "scam" churches is that IRS gives them a non-profit status as a religious entity. Then, the BOTA has little leeway to work with. If churches are to be taxed, the change will have to be in State law, well beyond control of the BOTA and a sure "third rail" for all politicians.

There is a big lot for sale on South Westover Blackshear could buy to build his apartment complexes.
daisymae 2 years, 7 months ago
They could keep the Baby daddies out by not letting the complex be Section 8 Housing, Grapha or any other Free Rent complex. I moved out of Albany to get away from the baby daddy dope dealers, sitting in the parking lot smoking dope neighbors. Been gone 4 years, when I left I was 50 year old woman whose brother (lived two doors down) had to watch for her to come in at night to make sure I was not mugged. When the city takes all the "free" rent away then maybe Albany will get cleaned up.

Come Root On A Local Hero!
Sooooooo, if you're around the Gold Coast Saturday around midnight, you've got to stop in The Drawing Room to cheer on hot shot mixologist Charles Joly.
The late-night resto and bar will be airing the finale of NBC's "On The Rocks," and he's one of three finalists.

"The University of Illinois is also in turmoil. The university sports an Interim Chancellor, an Interim Athletic Director, and an Interim Football Coach; the game will be played at Soldier Field, making this an Illini Interim Home Game."
In the O.
How many times has Avery been burned this year?
So dumb.
Do they only run the fake screen with Green in the game? Sure seems like it...
Time for another trick pony, Al.
Is it actually possible that we are STILL running into a stacked box after all these games?
Absolutely not.
Wilson seems to be th better option.
If Fleet turned that in. He had a chance.
Uh oh. Iowa has figured out the fake bubble/zone run thing. Guess we're screwed now.
If you're going to run that fake screen you have to run the screen every now and then...
My thoughts too. People stop caring about the fake as soon as they realize you never run the thing you're faking
Yeah, Al loves to fake stuff we don't actually do.
If he'd fake snaps over the QB's head . . . that they'd bite on.
Al doesn't believe in such things. He wants the world to know what he's doing and beat them anyway. I have tried hard not to be personal in my comments toward AB, but I am really struggling here.
It seems like we have 3 plays at all times on offense. We'll switch it up from game to game and sometimes the new plays will work, but eventually the defense realizes our new 3 plays and stuffs us every time we try to run them.
That's because we can only block three plays.
Wile puts a lot of back spin on the ball. Golf = good. Football punts = not good.
Is Wilie from Iowa? Boy is that guy having a bad day.
Unless he's actually from Iowa....in that case he's havng the game of his life.
WTF is this crap.
Isn't he punting into 25 mph winds? Going the other way he was mug better.
get that Mo back
...and squandered it. We should be putting points on the board every time we get the ball past the 40, or at the very least pin them inside the 15.
When he is kicking from right to left its into the wind morons
Pressure! Woo!
That's the way, Mattison!!
Nice pressure
Great job Jarrod Wilson!!!
Great pressure on that drive both from D Line and blitzes
Our O is back on the field. Next room in the fun house.
Ross is really coming along .... Clark looks solid and Wormley will be a beast
So many drops.
Drop city, bitch. Drop, drop city, bitch.
Defense... Blitz=success!!!
Geez, our WR turning into MSUs?
Holy fuck
What's our average first down yardage for the year? Is it even positive?
God damn dropsies
The dropsies today
Fumch getting his bad game out of the way
pass. My goodness.
Funchess trolling Gardner
the damn ball.
I don't understand what our RB's are doing on block protection. They never pick up the right guys.
My buddies and I can run a better offense than this on Thursday at our turkey Bowl.
That was all drops.
Fitz blocked nobody on that blitz.
Just not making catches

Social Networks
Creating a social networking website around a specific cause, neighborhood or industry is a great tool at your disposal that can be used to build a niche community online.
Our team of programmers has over 5 years experience building social media websites of varying complexity in both open source as well as custom web applications in a LAMP environment.
Build Community
Social networking websites can facilitate community action by providing a centralized channel for people with similar passions to communicate and share their ideas with other like minded people.
More Engaged Visitors
When people who share similar ideas come together, well, that's the magic of social media. Even if you don't have a million users, 50,000 highly engaged users can be just as powerful within your niche.
Promote Your Cause
An awesome benefit in building presence for a social network that is centered around a cause, neighborhood or industry is that the larger your website gets, the more visibility for your cause you garner.
Social Network FeaturesCreate a social network for your business or cause
Although the chances of you striking it rich off of a niche social network are slim, you can grow a sustainable business through advertising, donations, membership dues, affiliate marketing and other methods of monetization such as leveraging your user data in related industries or your own primary business.
It's possible to build a custom social network, or you can also use open source and SaaS models, depending on your budget. It is advised that you go custom if you expect to get VC funding for your social network and expect a big exit, because you have limited protections using other people's code.
Forums are a great way to provide a channel in your community site for users to discuss various topics they are interested in. Our social networks will add a community element to your site.
User Profiles
Provide your users with their own profile page complete with a biography section, website links, profile picture and more. Our social network solutions provide a way for users to express themselves.
Activity Stream
Activity streams have become a part of any social media website. Your users can see what other people are doing and interact with them based on their activity.
Followers, friends, connections, whatever you want to call them on your site, the basic concept is the same. Allow your users to connect with each other on your social network.
Photo Sharing
We can design, develop and deploy a social network that will allow your users to share their own photographs with their other friends / connections throughout the website.
Video Sharing
Having the capability to upload and share video has become a staple of any social network. Our social networks can enable your users to upload and share videos.
Facebook Connect
You will get a lot more users to sign up if the process is simple. We can integrate Facebook connect so your users can easily register on your site with their Facebook account.
Invite Friends
Once your users have registered and they like the site, why not allow them to invite people? We can provide your users with the ability to invite other people to your website.
Private Messages
Sometimes your users want to contact each other directly in private messages. AXZM's social network solutions will let your users send each other messages securely.

I had slight lazy eye. Now after surgery I have double vision and extreme dificulty focusing.
Dr.Hines, I cannot express enough how grateful I am for all you have done for me. When I first saw you over a year ago I was a frustrated artist who was losing my craft because of my increasing vision problems, You immediately put me at ease and formulated a treatment plan. I am so thankful for your skill and experience. So here we are !!!. We've been through cataract surgery and now Lasik surgery. I haven't seen this well since I was eight years old. So life begins at 57. Art school, E-bay business...private pilot..I have new possibilities, as the sky is the limit. I am extremely fortunate to have found you.
Dear Dr. Hines,I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and your staff for the excellent treatment I received during the procedures to remove a pterygium from each of my eyes. In the many visit I made to your office for the pre-op exam, the surgical procedures and all of the follow up exams I was always treated with respect. My questions were always answered and I never felt rushed through any of the many examinations and tests.The growth of the pterygia in my eyes was slowly affecting my visual activity and starting to affect the quality of my life. It is a joy to have that vision corrected back to near 20/20.Thank you also for providing the paperwork to re-validate my airman's medical certificate.You and your entire staff are to be commended for your professionalism and compassion. You truly do your part to make the world a better place.Sincerely,Alex H.Hines-Sight, Pterygium Patient, Denver, Colorado
Dear Hines-Sight,I - like most people - do not get regular eye exams like I should. When I finally decided to get my eyes checked, I knew I wanted to come to your facility. WHY? A dear friend of mine had surgeries on her eyes and Dr. Hines was the provider of the services. When I saw the care and follow up Hines-Sight provided her with, I was very impressed!After having my eyes examined at Hines-Sight, I came away knowing that my eyes had never been examined so thoroughly before in my life: not 1, but 2 exams! I've never experienced such thoroughness, quality and care before. The optical tech and the doctor, each went over what they found with me in detail. I was not rushed to leave like you get in so many other "mass production" facilities. Instead, I was welcomed and encouraged to stay and ask questions.Thank you, Hines-Sight, for a most impressive eye exam experience! I will soon schedule my LASIK eye surgery with you and am already very excited about it, because I know that I will be in best care and super happy again, like I am now.Thanks, Hines-Sight, have a wonderful day!Ranell L.P.
Dear Dr. Hines,There are times when a simple thank you is inadequate, and this is one of those times.The difference my cataract operations at your Hines-Sight Eye Center made in my life approach is miraculous.Now I drive my car with renewed confidence and a feeling of security. Reading has been a lifelong pleasure and now no longer requires a hand held magnifying glass. Personal hygiene is much easier and household chores are greatly helped with the return of a better depth perception. Even watching TV gives me much more enjoyment.An added, and somewhat unexpected, benefit has been the ability to really see the expressions on the faces of my grandchildren, and other family members.As one used to the professionalism required in a military career, it is easy for me to recognize it in other occupations. I can't say too much in praise about the knowledge and skills shown by everyone I came in contact with.This, in itself, is a compliment for the leadership directing the Hines-Sight Eye Center.My only regret in this entire experience has been my own fault. Why, as a supposedly rational adult, I put off these operations for so long passes belief. In partial reparation for that attitude I am happy to volunteer to speak to individuals, or even groups, about my experiences at Hines-Sight, Denver, Colorado. Also, please feel free to use all or part of this letter in your advertisements or literature.Sincerely and gratefully yours,Ed L.Hines-Sight, Denver, Colorado, Cataract Patient
Dr. Hines, I'd like to take a few minutes from your busy schedule to thank you and your entire staff for a completely pleasant and wonderful experience at Hines-Sight! Thanks to you and your skills my vision has never been clearer! No words can accurately describe how thrilled I am with my new vision and experience as your patient. All I can say is you and your staff have exceeded every expectation I've had. I'd also like to give a special thanks to Dr. Stanley Cushing and Geri for going above and beyond the call of duty! Dr. Cushing quickly identified the source of the vision problem in my left eye during my initial appointment. Geri was extremely informative and diligent during my pre-operation appointment with her. She was also very patient with me, answered all of my questions, and was extremely sensitive while responding to all of my concerns. I have already recommended Hines-Sight to several friends and family members!
Dear Dr. Hines,Thank you so much for taking such great care of us during Brad's cataract surgery. We were both so nervous because Bard only had the one seeing eye.You immediately put us at ease and were so kind and patient with us, and we appreciate that so much!Brad now has a new lease on life! He can read, drive and see the computer screen again. After nearly 2 years of not being able to do any of those things.We are both so happy now and very grateful to you and your staff.Thanks again,Brad&K. G.
How can anyone thank you enough. It's Amaz-seeing. For years I've wondered what it would be like to have great vision and no glasses. Less than 24 hours after my Lasik procedure I found out it's fantastic! No more dirty glasses, no more worrying about protecting the glasses during sports, no more contact lenses and dry eyes. No more taking my glasses off so I can look good on TV. Just great vision. I can't count the number of people, old friends and new, who compliment me on my beautiful eyes. Expressive Eyes hidden by glasses for nearly 22 years. I even me the woman I am going to be with the rest of my life. A woman who looked me into my eyes and expressed love at first sight. (It was mutual). What can I say except thank you... You've changed my life!Sincerely,Roderic E., TV Personality
I just wanted to take a moment to write to you and let you know how happy I am with my \"new\" eyes. I really can`t even begin to tell you how much I love being able to see again without contacts, it is so wonderful!Every morning when I get up and can see the clock without putting my contacts in, I thank Dr. Hines at Hines-Sight, LASIK in Denver, for my surgery. When I go swimming which I love to do, I thank Dr. Hines for not having to take out and then put back in those contacts. When I see a beautiful or not sunrise or sunset, I thank Dr. Hines for my \"new\" eyes. I could go on and on about how thankful I am for my fantastic \"new\" eyes, however, I think you understand that what I`m saying is \"THANKS A MILLION!!\"I could never put into words how great it is to be free of contacts is that a word and I thank you. Dr. Hines and the whole staff of The Eye Center are very terrific people. I was taken very good care of and never had any questions or doubts about what was happening during the whole process of my surgery from the first time I walked into your office until the last checkup visit I had.Thank you again for my \"new\" eyes and, believe me, I will let everyone know where to go when they need to have laser correction or just a caring doctor and staff to take care of their eyes!Sincerely,D.A.

Switching From Evox To Ava And Still Keep Evox
Posted 13 October 2004 - 06:42 AM
I need to install Avalaunch and I would like to keep Evox. So browsing in www.teamavalaunch.com
I find this:
HOWTO: Make Avalaunch your dashboard without flashing your BIOS!
or: "Help, how do I switch from EvolutionX to Avalaunch and still keep EvoX??"
"--be very careful! If you are using a much older BIOS, and you incorrectly rename your avalaunch.xbe, your xbox will not boot. If you have any doubts, open your BIOS with XBTool and check the boot order, so you know what to name it. You have been warned. If you have any doubts, flash your BIOS to 4981 before doing this, and it WILL work fine"
"These instructions do assume that you are using an Xecuter2 BIOS, though."
Okay, I'm almost a rookie in this matters, but "researching we can find Rome". I didn't know what is BIos, so I find this definition: "Bios: program which is permanently located in a computer's memory and is activated at startup" "Determines what a computer cand do without accesing programs from a disk" "contains all the code required to display the screen, disk drives, serial communications, and a number of miscelaneous functions" "The Bios is tipycally placed in a ROM chip that comes with the computer"
Eureka! I guess that I've understand what is Bios. My Xbox has installed an Aladin Advance Chip, so I guess that this chip gives the instruction to launchs Evox Dashboard and not the Microsot's when the system boots.
1)What could I know if my Bios is much older?
2) What happens if my Bios is old, but If I don´t rename incorrectly avalaunch.exe?
3)What Is flash Bios? I guess that flash is a kind of seal that is set when you change instructions to the Bios. Is it True?
4)What is flash your BIos to 4981, and how can I do ti?
5)I have downloaded the Xbox Tool and It seems to run in PC and not in Xbox, do I have to convert the files to isoX and install this application in Xbox to check Bios?
6) Xecuter2 is a chip like Aladin's?
Posted 13 October 2004 - 06:59 AM
2)Your bios would then look for another xbe file, such as xboxdash.xbe, etc. This depends on the three dash loading options programmed in your BIOS.
3) Flash BIOS? Not sure what you mean, but the phrase "Flash BIOS" means to write a new bios to your modchip, a process called "flashing".
4)Lemme give you specfic details in about an hour if no one else helps before then. In short, it means to get the X2.4981 BIOS (a recent Xecuter BIOS) from xbins (a special place) and "Flash" it to your chip, giving your chip that new bios. But, you may already HAVE it.
Hint: When you start your XBOX up, do the words Xecuter 2 show at the bottom of the screen, or do you see a red or green triangle showing "Evox" in the upper-left of the screen?
5) XBTool is a PC program for changing certain parts of a BIOS, like the dash loading order (see #2 above). You don't need it unless you want to modify your bios. BIOS files can simply be FTP transfered to a directory on your xbox harddrive (such as C:\BIOS), and then can be used to flash (via different methods, such as "Flash BIOS" option in the Evox menu)
6)They are similar, but very different in many ways. They do the same thing, hold and use a BIOS, and allow you to run non-MS applications (like Evox, Avalaunch, etc), but the Aladdin is a much cheaper chip and doesn't have as many good features as the Xecuter 2 chip (for example, the X2 can hold TWO BIOSes, one you use normally and one you keep for emergencies.
Reply, and I'll answer again in one hour.

Posted 14 October 2004 - 08:31 AM
About question 4) "What is flash your BIos to 4981, and how can I do ti?" please answer my question about what you see when you power on your xbox. Maybe you don't need to flash a new BIOS, such as x2.4981
One more question. What is your native language? I don't want to be rude, but I'm an ESL teacher (English as a Second Language Teacher), so if I know what your original language is, I can write my posts more clearly.
Your English so far is pretty good, but many people here don't have the patience to help people who don't speak English perfectly. Personally, I have an interest in your help, because I like to help and because of my job.
But again, YOUR answer to MY question about 4) "What is flash your BIos to 4981, and how can I do it?" is very important. I believe you won't need to flash (put a new bios on to your modchip) your modchip. So, this process might be very easy...!
Waiting for your reply,
Posted 14 October 2004 - 08:35 AM
I have backed up C and E drives, so let's start.
Remember that I'm almost a rookie in this matters so I didn't understand some things like:
3)How do you do to write a new bios to your modchip?
4)Lemme didn't give me specfic details and I still don't understand what does get the X2.4981 BIOS mean
Answer to the Hint: When I start my XBOX up, the words Xecuter 2 doesn't show at the bottom of the screen, and I can't see a red or green triangle showing "Evox" in the upper-left of the screen.
Xombe, pleeeeease, "explain me with apples", jep, remember that I'm almost a rookie. I guess that the next steps is to check if I really have the new Executer Bios, if dont' to update it (please tell me how) and finally to follow the steps stated in teamavalaunch to set Avalaunch as my dashboard and loading Evox dashboard just by the right trigger.
Posted 14 October 2004 - 08:53 AM
Spanish is my native language, sorry if I haven't been so clear.
I guess that our responses are delaying.
I have answered your hint. Please advise me another way to check it. But If it is not updated, it would be very good for me to learn to flash bios, of course with your support.
My Resources: Evox v1.8.2594 as my defalult dashboard. Applications: DVD-X, BoxPlorer, YAMP, Px HDD Loader, XBMC, DVD2Xbox, Xpad, Xbox FTP Client, Unleahs Xbox Launcher, Avalaunch (the one that I want to set as my main db) and finally I have connected my PC to the Xbox. Ah, and of course my Evox includes the Flashing Bios option.
Best Regards...Seadolph.

Posted 14 October 2004 - 09:01 AM
ALSO, because you have a network, you can FTP into your XBOX. Check your C: Drive root (meaining C:\) and see if you have a folder called C:\BIOS. Look inside there are list any filenames you see.
Waiting for answer,
Edited by Xombe, 14 October 2004 - 09:16 AM.
Posted 15 October 2004 - 05:39 AM
My Evox Dashboard (v 1.8.2594) doesn't have the System Settings option, It just have: MS Dashboard, Reboot, Shut down, DVD games, Programs, HDD games, Emulators and SYSTEM UTILITIES that involves: Flash Bios, Backup and Skins. In some skins I can see a line saying "Bios: Unknown".
c:\Bios Has 3 files: Evoxv 2.3.bin, Evoxv 2.4.bin, Evoxv 2.5.bin
Best Regards...Seadolph
Note: I log on daily around Mexico's City midnight (GMT -6 or USA's Center)
Posted 15 October 2004 - 06:58 AM
Okay, so we can't tell easily if what BIOS you have. But it looks like it's an old one. Your Aladdin Advance has a chip that can hold a BIOS 256k (kilobytes) in size. That makes things easier. Let's get you a new BIOS, such as the x2.4981 we talked about before...
About that BIOS, you have two choices, so I have a question. Have you installed a new, larger hard drive in your XBOX? If you have, tell me how big is it? That's important.
Next, to be safe, do you know exactly what kind of Aladdin Chip you have. There are many kinds. I KNOW you don't have the newest, the Aladdin Advance Live or Aladdin Advance ++, but look at these pictures and tell me if you know which one you have.
I think maybe you have an Aladdin Advance +, but you might have an older chip, like the Aladdin Advance 64. See the difference? The AA64 has a chip with the word "Lattice", but the AA+ says "Aladdin +" on the same chip. What kind of AA you have is not really important, but if you can know, it will help.
Next major question, do you know what version your XBOX is? There are 6 versions. v1.0 is the oldest, and was made in Mexico! x1.6 is the newest, and can be trouble. If you don't know what version XBOX you have, look on the bottom of the box, at the "Manufacture Date" written on the label. Tell me this, and tell me your serial number, too.
Tell me these answers, and we can choose your BIOS. Then I can help you get it.
Posted 15 October 2004 - 10:18 PM
Aladin Advance Chip: The guy that installed it, told me that with this chip I can log on Xbox Live, but it has to be off, but I don't know exactly which one is, so. TBA (let me research)
Manufacture Date: 21/01/2002 and the label says that was made in Mexico (jep, my country) So, please tell me, What's my version?
Awaiting for your response in order to install a new Bios ( x2.4981 ) I guess that I have to Download, install and flash it. Please tell me step by step hoW to do it.
Posted 16 October 2004 - 12:43 AM
This is all good news...!
Posted 16 October 2004 - 01:17 AM
Posted 16 October 2004 - 04:58 AM
apcki, if you don't have anything constructive to say, please stay out of this.
Have you even READ the posts? He's most likely got an Evox 2.5 BIOS (from back in 2002), and while it supports HD swapping, it doesn't support LBA. Hence by careful questions and support.... If he tried to install a larger drive than the 120GB he's got (which we only just learned), he'd run into problems. Have you thought about that?
|Just ftp into evox, upload avalaunch, and run it from the menus.
Didn't you notice the TITLE of the damn thread, he wants Avalaunch as HIS MAIN DASH, not running from Evox.
Plus, his native language Spanish, and he is doing his best to LEARN about the scene, not just follow some jerk's (non-topical) "advice".
So to sum, up at lead READ the post (shit, at least the title and first post) before you start posting useless replies.
Edited: bad italic tag..

HDD size of 120GB makes it easy to chose your BIOS.
AA chip info, I understand enough. The guy means that if you just tap the power button, the xbox boots with the chip OFF so you can go on Live without getting banned, and holding the power button in for about two seconds turns the chip on, this is called "enabling" the chip.
You're box was made January 21, 2002, so it is a version 1.0 xbox. The proof:
|If MFG. DATE is November 2002 or later you have a xbox v1.1, else you have a xbox v1.0
You want to download a new BIOS, and I recommend the Xecuter 2 4981 BIOS. Actually, we don't know 100% what your BIOS is, but learning how to get a new bios (and new applications) is a very important learning experience.
BUT, it's kind of difficult. We can't give or trade illegal files (like BIOSes and xbox app) here, but there is a place to get them. BUT, we can't talk very much about it here.
Here is your starting point, go read this guide to xbins, also called "the usual places" as a nickname. I can't give you any more info that what's in that guide, but I can help you understand it, if the English is difficult or the programs are difficult to use. But the guide has many pictures, so maybe you can do it okay.
If you can do this (get into xbins), then you're 95% of the way finished. And you'll learn a LOT of very important information by trying it.
Ask me if you need help with the xbins guide.
Posted 16 October 2004 - 09:55 AM
I got it, but I'm not sure which one is:
X2_4981.06_blue_colormod_beta.bin 256kbs
4981.67_256k.bin 256kbs
x2bmv2.exe 360 kbs
Please confirm me the right one and also if I have to FTP to Xbox inside c:\Bios and finally to hint on the Flash Bios Evox Dashboard option. Or if I'm wrong,
2) please tell me the next steps.
Ah, also let me ask you something very stupid. In F Drive I have 45 games and some MP3, backiing up this data took me a lot of time and I'm affraid to lose it in this process. 3)Updating the Bios won't give format to drive F or E?
In your discussion with apcki you said "it doesn't support LBA" 4)What did you mean?

A new report reveals the life circumstances that stress men out the most -- and how those stressors might be affecting weight.
The survey, conducted by life insurance company Aviva USA and the Mayo Clinic, shows that finances are the biggest source of stress for men -- 62 percent of men who considered themselves extremely stressed in the survey also said that they felt "uncomfortable" about their finances.
Meanwhile, just 21 percent of people who were uncomfortable about their finances reported not being stressed.
The study included 2,068 people ages 18 and older.
The researchers also found that four out of five men said in the survey that their health was good or excellent. But this is contrasted with other findings -- almost half of the men reported that they experienced an increase in weight over the last decade, and two out of three said they experienced stress.
Researchers also found that about 25 percent of the men in the survey did not regularly exercise.
"Studies have found that, on average, men tend to push off doctor visits longer than women, often avoiding the doctor until a major health problem arises," Dr. Philip Hagen, of the Mayo Clinic, said in a statement. "In this survey, we're seeing some of these same avoidance tendencies among male respondents. Men overall described themselves as being in good health, while at the same time reporting high-risk health factors, such as weight gain and high levels of stress."
To see the five biggest stressors cited by men in the study, click through the slideshow:
Eight percent of men in the study said that health is responsible for the most stress in their lives.
Ten percent of men in the study said that the fast pace of life stresses them out the most.
Twelve percent of men in the study said that job stability is their biggest stressor in life.
Seventeen percent of men in the study said that family and/or relationships stress them out the most in life.
Thirty-four percent of men in the study said that finances stress them out the most in life.

Black Box Adds Plug-And-Play Solutions To Its Digital Signage Product Line
New media appliances, players, and extenders make digital signage more affordable, easier to set up.
PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA, April 16, 2009 — Black Box Corporation (NASDAQ:BBOX), an industry-leading provider of
voice communications,
data infrastructure, and
product solutions, announced today that it has expanded its line of digital signage products to help businesses more affordably and economically market to and reach their customers.
"Digital signage gets results. Whether you use it to increase sales, cross-sell, upsell, or to improve communications, it's a smart investment," says Mario Calabro, Black Box Multimedia Products Manager. "It's an effective way of delivering the right message at the right time. Businesses and organizations of all sizes in every vertical are seeing a very quick ROI."
To meet the increased demands, Black Box has launched a wide array of digital signage solutions. Generating the most industry buzz is
iCOMPEL™ (part #s AC4000A, AC4001A, AC4002A, AC4003A, AC4004A, and AC4005A), Black Box's new family of browser-based, networked digital signage appliances. Showcased at the recent Digital Signage Expo in Las Vegas, iCOMPEL gives new users and system integrators a highly affordable, "out-of-the-box" way to set up, create, and manage digital signage.
Despite its simplified design and affordable price, iCOMPEL provides the advanced features and functionality typically found on very high-end systems. "You get professionally designed layouts, easy-to-use drag-and-drop tools, and a whole host of other features," Calabro says. "Plus, there are no ongoing licensing fees, all the software is included, and updates are free."
Because it supports many media formats, users can combine 1080p video or live TV with scrolling text, photos, Flash®, and HTML and RSS media. It works with MPEG, AVI, QuickTime®, and PowerPoint® media, as well as JPEG, GIF, and TIFF images, and WAV and MP3 audio. The iCOMPEL system supports playing of stored and live media in multiple screen zones, as well as changing content ad-hoc at the display.
Calabro says iCOMPEL is ideal for any size users. "You can have one unit in one location or thousands of units playing different content around the globe," he explains.
For those looking to use their existing network infrastructure to distribute digital signage content, Black Box has introduced Video and Audio over Ethernet (VAoE) Extenders (part #s AC1140A, AC1140C, and AC1141A).
This breakthrough technology, which uses an existing Ethernet network for end-to-end digital media distribution, is a very cost-effective alternative to today's expensive solutions for sending live video and audio to remote screens. Calabro says, "All you need is a CAT5, CAT5e, or CAT6 network infrastructure and you can transmit hi-def video and audio to one or more displays as far as 300 feet away. To go farther, you just add a network switch to the system."
The system provides up to six independent media streams, transmitting broadcast-quality video without amplifiers or signal tuning. The extenders work with any single-link DVI or HDTV display and support 1080p resolutions, no matter what the distance or the number of displays.

To distribute video to the screens, multiple receiver units can be daisychained through their CATx ports. In addition, the system's receiver works as a true Gigabit Ethernet switch, supporting device connections via its three 10-/100-/1000-Mbps Ethernet ports.

Senior forward Allison Eder-Zdechlik (Stillwater, Minn.) was certainly up to the challenge, as she continued her scoring streak with a goal in each game against the nation's best to extend her impressive goal and point streaks. For her performance, the MIAC sports information directors honored Eder-Zdechlik Monday with the MIAC Women's Hockey Athlete-of-the-Week award.

This was a sauce full of flavour and quick to put together. Will definitely use again.
We thought it was lovely, delicious and not TOO rich. I used half the vegemite. Will definitely do the mushroom sauce again with other dishes.
Awesome recipe and noted the ingredients are commonly found in the fridge and pantry. Loved it
Was sceptical about the vegemite, but now realise what I've been missing.....just loved the sauce. Thank you
Yummy! You can really taste the vegemite!
I followed the advice of other members and only added 1tsp of Vegemite and it was more than enough to boost the flavour. My fiancé and I loved it and served it with steamed greens. Will make this again!
OMG so lovely....the whole family did too!
Really Yummy! Wasn't a huge fan of mushroom sauce, but this has changed my mind. Was so delicious. Will definitely be making this again. I used eschallots also as that is what i had on hand. Definitely a winner!
YUM! Super delicious flavour combo - serve it with rocket for the grown ups and mixed vegies for the kids.
This gets all 5 stars from me, it was supurb, thoroughly enjoyed by both hubby & my self, it has been put in my favourites folder & definatley will become a repeat recipe, I setved it on creamy mashed potato & Baby green beans, I ude "Spring Onions" as it was what I had on hand, do not believe it altered the taste
I made this tonight for something different to my regular Beef Stroganoff. I love eschalots, mushrooms & garlic plus I have used Vegemite in a Meatloaf before so thought it could be nice. I did what the recipe said to do but I did substitute the brandy for apple juice as I had no wine or Brandy. It still turned out really tasty, I couldn't get enough of the sauce although there was plenty for 3 adult serves. I have to say though, unless your a big fan of Vegemite, only put in half the amount the recipe says, it almost over-powered the dish. Will make again though!
I cooked this tonight & after reading the comments, I only put half of the vegemite in it. I followed the rest of the recipe but found it very bland so i then added the rest of the vegemite but then it was too overpowering so I then added more beef stock, cream, mustard & some peppercorns. In the end, I ended up changing it so it tasted nicer but I don't think I'll cook this again.
Yummy! I only put 1.5 tsp of vegemite in as I didn't want the taste to be overwhelmingly vegemite and I didn't have any beef stock so I used chicken. Everyone loved it
We LOVE this recipe. Have also served the sauce with chicken.
Very very nice, Really rich sauce. I had mine with Rib eye on the bone, Cooked 3 min each side and 15min in a hot oven, sensational.
Loved It, nice rich sauce. Enjoyed by all in the house
Turned out FANTASTIC!
this was yum just wish I had of read the comments 1st there was too much vegemite probably add 1/2 tsp then add to taste. will definately make it again!
I wouldn't care if this recipe tasted foul; it has the best name ever.
The only thing I changed was the amount of vegemite. I used only one teaspoon and that was plenty; we could taste the vegemite and although it was pleasant, any more would have made the sauce unpalatable. It was a delicious meal and I will make it again.
Absolutely delicious!
Made this and have to say it is very nice, of course its sister recipe is also very good, would not hesitate to make again everyone loved it. The sour cream/potato was a great partner, I made extra sauce as you cannot have enough sauce better too much than not enough.

Why do you blog about nail polish?
I started blogging for a hobby, never guessing it would turn into such a big part of my life. Color has always been important to me and even though I'm not adventurous fashion-wise, I can wear any color imaginable on my nails and I always feel fierce. Blogging about nail polish is helpful to others so they can see what a color looks like on the nail vs. in the bottle, helping them make decisions on what to buy. I also love meeting others who have similar interests and blogging has become a fantastic avenue for that.
Are your nails real?
Yes. I used to get acrylics years and years ago, but they were very expensive and really damaging. I try to keep my nails a nice medium length as I believe it looks best on camera, but they vary often. I keep them healthy with Bliss Kiss Pure Nail Oil.
What top and base coat do you use?
My go-to topcoat is Glisten & Glow HK Girl. With base coats, I go the rounds and have used a million different ones. My fail safe has always been Orly Bonder. Check out this post on my nail care essentials!
What camera do you use?
I have a Sony DSC-H55. I prefer to take photos in the sunlight so I usually only swatch on the weekends, weather permitting.
How do you paint your nails?
Practice makes perfect! Here are links to some great tutorials: Lacquerized: How I Paint My Nails, Lacquerized: Clean Up in 6 Easy Steps.
What is your favorite brand of polish?
I love them all, but some of my top brands are: OPI, Rescue Beauty Lounge, BB Couture, Zoya, and Essie. A lot of the indie brands out there are amazing too! Some top favorites are KBShimmer, Pretty Serious Cosmetics and SuperChic Lacquer.
Do you have a favorite color?
I would say my favorite color is coral. I actually had the opportunity to create my own nail polish color with Rescue Beauty Lounge called Kellie Gonzo! It's a bright coral with orange glitter and silver flakes. It is unfortunately sold out and retired now.
How many bottles of polish do you have?
I would rather not venture to guess...but it's a lot! I have five helmers almost full and a zillion bottles sitting on my desk and dresser waiting to be used, swatched or sorted into a drawer.
Why don't you do nail art?
Because I suck at it haha! I adore nail art on others, but sadly cannot accomplish a simple polka dot pattern on my own nails. I have a huge Pinterest board full of inspiring nail art though!

Will it break apart?
I'm needing
And believing
You'll be here
That you might feel
Dear oh dear
Your heart to win
We might begin
Body sins
As I said
Maybe you read
Falling to bed
In love
Never too much
You're not a dove
But my world
Are you sure?

TIDAL steps their game up this morning, with the release of a new exclusive from Usher, featuring Nas and "Bitch Better Have My Money" songwriter Bibi Bourelly.
Kendrick Lamar Wrote "The Blacker The Berry" Soon After Trayvon Martin's Death Jun 21, 2015 at 03:59pm
As much as Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp A Butterfly has been talked about, by critics, fans, and Kendrick himself, we're still learning new things about the album each time it's brought up.
Rick Ross' new album, Mastermind began streaming for free last night, and a lyric controversy has already arisen as a result. The line in question comes in the 11th track, "Black & White" where Ross says "Trayvon Martin, I'm never missing my target".
Listen to Too Soon (Trayvon Martin & Jordan Davis Tribute), the new track by Plies, which was dropped on Wednesday, February 5th, 2014.
Earlier this week, it was revealed that George Zimmerman would be participating in a celebrity boxing match, but his opponent was yet to be determined.
Game is known to sport a short fuse and pack a mean punch. However this time, he has a victim in mind: the notorious George Zimmerman, of national Trayvon Martin infamy.
Chris Brown does not have the best reputation, and is consistently vocal about his frustration with his portrayal in the media.
Mysonne echoes the sentiments of Dwyane Wade's tweet after the Zimmerman verdict, "what do I say to my sons?" and gives visuals to the track which is a Trayvon Martin tribute. Can you dig it?
In a recent interview, Game revealed his philosophy behind paying tribute to others, saying, "From the beginning of my career to the end, it's always gonna be an homage to somebody." The Compton rapper pays homage not only through his music, but also the image
In Tallahassee yesterday, veteran rapper Talib Kweli joined the ongoing sit-in protests at the Florida Capitol.
Dwyane Wade was one of the more outspoken athletes after the death of Trayvon Martin, and he voiced his outrage at the verdict of the George Zimmerman trial. The night that Zimmerman was found not guilty, Wade tweeted, how he was "saddened as a father,"
Flo Rida recently dropped a visual for his new single "Can't Believe It" which featured Pitbull and plenty of animated butts and other weird animations.
We've heard from a lot of rappers at this point about their feelings on the Trayvon Martin case. Most express the same sentiment-- one of anger, disbelief, and a feeling that something needs to be done. T.I. is no different.
This afternoon we received a new banger from Rick Ross, "I Wonder Why," in which he raps about the 'Stand Your Ground' law, in somewhat of an ode to Trayvon Martin.
While talking with Rikki Martinez, Rick Ross, a Miami native, shared his thoughts on the "Stand Your Ground" law, which played a part in the Trayvon Martin case.How does this compare to Rick Ross's previous work?Peep the new visual for Rick Ross's Rick Ross "I

Rumors Circulate That Kanye West, Alicia Keys, Wale & More Join Stevie Wonder's Boycott Of Florida [Update: List Largely Discredited] Jul 24, 2013 at 09:55am

During the finale of Jay Z and Justin Timberlake's Legends Of The Summer tour leg at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, they dedicated a rendition of the former's "Forever Young" to Trayvon Martin.Did you enjoy Jay-Z's contributions to this video?
Although the verdict is in for George Zimmerman in the killing of Trayvon Martin, people are still seeking justice for the act of senseless violence.
Nipsey Hussle Cuffed During Trayvon Martin Rally [Update: Nipsey Says Cops Used "Excessive Force"] Jul 17, 2013 at 01:46pm
Nipsey Hussle is one of many rappers supporting Trayvon Martin, but he is the first to end up in handcuffs over it. Police restrained Nipsey at a Trayvon Martin protest rally Tuesday night, under the suspicion that the rapper was carrying a gun.
"I made this video in conversation with people who follow me on social media about racism in our society. People are going to have all kinds of reactions in the comments including hate.
We've heard from many rappers already about how the felt after George Zimmerman was found not guilty in the case investigating the death of Florida teen, Trayvon Martin.

Diddy, Rihanna, Lil Wayne, Miguel & More React To "Not Guilty" Verdict In Trayvon Martin Case Jul 14, 2013 at 11:46am
Last night, in a Sanford, Florida court room, George Zimmerman was found "not guilty" in the slaying of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, having been acquitted of second-degree murder and/or manslaughter.
During a performance in Nashville last night, Beyonce requested a moment of silence for Trayvon Martin, after the news had broken that his shooter, George Zimmerman, was found not guilty.

The Common Council will decide tonight whether to change pension and health insurance contributions, as well as whether to make wage adjustments, for fire supervisors to keep them on par with what the fire union negotiated in its new contract.
State law requires that supervisors - in this case the chief, his two assistants and three deputies - pay the same 3 percent pension contribution that was negotiated for 2012 by the fire union.
Under the state budget-repair bill, police and fire workers aren't automatically required to contribute to their pensions like others who lost the ability to collectively bargain earlier this year.
The fire contract bumps up all fire union and fire supervisors to nearly 6 percent contributions for 2013, eventually bringing their contribution to the same level that most city employees have been paying at since August.
The police union and city haven't settled on a contract so there is no pension contribution coming from police union or supervisory employees at this point, City Administrator James Archambo said.
State law doesn't dictate equality in other areas of compensation, he said. However, in an effort to keep firefighters from making more than their chiefs, the Employee Relations Committee unanimously recommended supervisors move to a 5 percent premium contribution in 2012 and 10 percent in 2013.
In addition, the chiefs would receive 3 percent cost-of-living raises in 2012 and 2013.
Fire Chief Rob Ugaste encouraged the committee to support the changes because his chief staff worked with the union to come to agreeable terms. With the pension contribution equating to the pay raise and a higher health premium contribution, all fire employees will be taking a hit, but an equal one.
"My staff placed themselves in harm's way to do what they think is right," Ugaste said. "I think they deserve the same deal."
