700r4 Torque converter lockup coming on and off
Hey everybody. I have been having some issues with my 700's lockup for over a month now and have not found a fix yet. The symptom I am experiencing is the lockup engages and disengages after I have driven for about 4 miles. When the engine is cold there is no problem but once it warms up, it seems to get worse and worse until it quits all together. Just to make things clear, I have no ecm controlling lockup. I do however have it wired to lockup in 4th gear only via a pressure switch in the 4th gear pressure port. The wiring is run from an ignition 12v wire, to a fuse, to my brake switch, then down to the transmission. The things I have tried are replacing the converter and lockup solenoid. This did not fix the problem. The solenoid was starting to go bad however. Also, before anyone asks, I do have the tv cable set up properly using bowtie overdrives tv made easy system for the edelbrock 1406 carb. I am starting to get frustrated and I want to avoid throwing any more parts at it. Wish I would have waited on replacing the torque converter. So any advice I get would be greatly appreciated.
power of 12 volts loss? Loss connection , poor ground? Bad pressure switch on valve body?
You can place a check ball in the end of the lock up solenoid and re-install the solenoid.. the trans converter will lock up as the trasn shifts to 2nd gear and stay locked up till the trans drops back to first gear. There is no lock up oil provided in first gear
You can test and see if the converter starts locking in and out the clutch as the trans temp rises
Dont worry how old you are... it is the mileage on your body that adds up.
my 91 one was doing this on the freeway all the time i eventualy just unplugged it and never looked back since then.
the TCC kept cycling in and out over and over and was super annoying
TCC dont last forever.,
Crossley, I will check the 12v supply either tonight or tomorrow. The way mine is wired, the ground side is through the pressure switch. I would like to test the continuity of the pressure switch but not too sure how to go about applying pressure once it is out. As far as the checkball idea, do you just mean as a temporary test? Not too sure I would enjoy having lockup start as soon as I hit second gear. Using more pedal to get my truck going would make the mileage even worse than what it is now.
I just wanted to post back and let everyone know I think the problem with the TCC is resolved. After doing some testing last night, I found I had power from the ignition wire up to the brake switch but nothing after that. I put in a new switch today and all seems to work as it should. For some reason it just wasn't making a good connection on the cruise control part of the switch yet it was fine on the brake side. If anything changes, I will update you guys. Thanks for the suggestion about a bad connection.

Fatal Attraction: The Dow and 10,000
By Peter Coy
Anyone who has ever been in a bad relationship recognizes the behavior: You know it's time to move on, but you can't help yourself. You keep going back. That's the way it's starting to feel with the Dow Jones industrial average and the psychological pull of the 10,000-point mark.
The average first broke through 10,000 back on Mar. 29, 1999, when spring was in the air and Internet bubbles were floating skyward. Since then the benchmark index of 30 stocks has crossed 10,000 from either above or below no fewer than 49 times. The next time (if there is a next time) will be an even 50. This is feeling a lot like a fatal attraction.
On Apr. 29 the Dow jumped 122 points, to 10,193, up 1.2% for the day. But most analysts agree that almost any bad news in coming days could easily send it back below the round number. One more time.
Of course, it's easy to overdo the romantic-cum-psychotic take on the stock market. Prices do respond to events in the real world. Out there, the news is mixed. On the downside, the Commerce Dept. announced on Apr. 28 that the economy grew at a rate of only 3.1% in the first quarter, the slowest since the autumn of 2003. Take away the growth that came from inventory accumulating on shelves, and expansion in so-called final demand was just 1.9% annually.
What's more, the Federal Reserve keeps raising interest rates. Another quarter-point hike is expected when policymakers meet on May 3. Conversely, keeping stocks aloft, the economic expansion is continuing. In fact, profits are strong enough that the price-earnings ratio of the Standard & Poor's 500-stock index is only around 20 -- making stocks way cheaper than in early '99, when the p-e of the S&P was well over 30. With that in mind, few market-watchers are forecasting Armageddon.
Yet the question of how much longer the dark magnetism between the Dow and Ten Thou could go on is another matter. If history is any measure, this unhealthy romance could last awhile. Look back at what happened when the Dow was flirting with 1,000.
On Feb. 9, 1966, it hit 995.14. Investors were jubilant. The Nifty Fifty of the era's can't-miss stocks really did seem nifty. But it wasn't until more than six years later -- on Nov. 14, 1972 -- that the Dow finally managed to crack through 1,000, closing at 1,003.15.
Wait -- it gets worse. Soon after, the economy was hit by recession, oil crises, soaring interest rates, slow productivity growth, and a host of other maladies. The Dow went as low as 577.60 in December, 1974, and it didn't get above 1,000 for good until December, 1982.
To sum up, it was close to 17 years between the Dow's first near-miss at 1,000 and its last close below that figure. So far, the flirtation with 10,000 has lasted for only six years. Are we facing 11 more years of this? Egad. Granted, if the economy and the markets revive, there may never again be a four-digit Dow. At the moment, though, this fatal attraction shows no sign of ebbing.

I need help with my dilema. I have an '01 Camaro SS and I'm thinking of trading it in on an STi.
The problem is the "no test drive" policy is really a problem for me. I understand that the two cars are very different and I need to get a feel for the STi before I'm ready to commit.
What I'd like to know is if there is anyone in my area that has an STi that would be willing to take me for a ride. I certainly wouldn't expect to drive but if I could just get a ride in one at least I can have a better idea to help me decide.

I was tagged by a whole bunch of doggies!!!! Sorry for the late response!
Here are the rules:
Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Dogs who are tagged, need to post in their Diary the rules & their 7 pawsome facts. Then choose 7 dogs to tag and list their names. Don't forget to bark them a pmail that they have been tagged and to read your Diary, or, send them a fun Rosette announcing they've been Tagged!
7 Fun Facts About Me
1. I run with Mom at least 3 times per week.
2. I get really bad gas with Science Diet food... so it's a no-no.
3. I love burping in Mom or Dad's face right after I eat.
4. My butt hair grows all the way down to my ankles if I'm not groomed.
5. I have anxiety but I'm not on any medication for it.
6. I like taking naps in the very back of Mom and Dad's master closet.
7. I love chewing my treats while I'm laying on Dad's shoes.
Another year has gone by. I'm two years old now. This Christmas was great because I spent it with my mom and dad. I was even able to see my brother. I got a lot of great gifts. The only thing that was hard was thinking about all the doggies in the world who don't have what I have. It's been cold outside and I get really sad thinking about the dogs out there in the cold. Mom and Dad have decided to foster a dog from a local shelter. I don't mind sharing my space for awhile to help find this dog a loving home. So here's my Christmas wish for 2006... That all dogs find a forever home.

Sorry, solved
So after reading some stuff on line i found out that the AWUS036H was a good choice, it's very powerful, USB so easy to move, and should be able to inject packets out of the box with backtrack 2.
So i bought the card, and now I've got it I can't get injection to work.
I've got Backtrack 2 final set up as secondary OS on my laptop (Dell Inspiron 6400). When I use airmon-ng the card can be put in monitor mode, and with airodump-ng I can detect AP's, but when I try to use fake authentication it just tries to send the packets, but fails. When i run aireplay-ng with the --test paramter, to test injection quality, it does NOT inject.
I also tried to do it with BT2Final with the Alfa modules on it, still no injection.
Can anyone please help, i bought this card specially so i could inject.
Sorry, solved

It should ensure HMV floats with a strong wind at its back. Buoyant trading in music at Christmas and a recovery in its 200 Waterstone's bookshops have helped boost like-for-like sales by about 8% in the third quarter while profits rose £12m to £76m in the same period.
Operating profits for the year to April are forecast to rise 20% to £140m.
HMV, led by chairman Eric Nicoli, plans to raise about £350m from its float, which will help halve its own debts and could pull in £70m for debt-strapped parent EMI, which owns 43% after a 1998 management buyout.
Since then, venture capital group Advent has held 40% and senior managers the balance. They are also expected to sell part of their holdings.

Jason Gardiner isn't feeling too safe in his position on the Dancing On Ice panel he has revealed and the star admitted that he knows he may be axed before the show returns next year.
The ITV series drew to an end on Sunday night, for it's least watched final yet and though channel bosses and Torvill and Dean have all insisted that it won't be cancelled, Jason knows he could be shed if a new lineup looks more appealing for 2014.
Gardiner may be a little deluded, as he told The Sun that the ratings on the show are up, explaining:
He said: "The ratings are up — that is what the network needed to see.
"If the numbers were down then I think we would be in trouble. Why would they get rid of it? It still does the business."
However after being axed in 2012 and reinstated in 2013, the Australian star knows he could be sacked just as easily again and confessed:
"Nobody is safe in this industry. There are no guarantees unless you are Torvill and Dean.
"They're safe, everyone else is up for discussion."
The star has been at the centre of many controversies on the show and this series was no different. OFCOM investigated comments he made to X Factor singer Shayne Ward, when Jason told him he skated like he had 'locked in syndrome.'
However the regulatory body later cleared him of any wrongdoing and it seems their decision has simply spurred him on.
He said:
"Ofcom must love me. They keep saying, 'You know what, he is fine.'
"And it wouldn't be a Dancing On Ice series if there wasn't an Ofcom investigation.
"I reckon we should just have them as the fifth judge on the panel. Then I can just turn to them and say, 'Ofcom, was that all right? Did that pass? Did I get that through the hoop?'."
Jason also spoke out about claims that he and the judges script their remarks before the show, or are given comments by staff before they go live. He claimed that he comes up with all his own critiques and added:
"These things just pop into my mind. You don't have time to think."
"We don't have any scripted comments. It is hard to ever call it. A lot of people don't do well on the panel because they get locked in to what they see in the rehearsal. And when it changes it throws them.
"It's a live show and you have to take everything as it comes."
Jason was upbeat when the series drew to a close two days ago and took to Twitter to exclaim:
"@dancingonice 10 weeks and its all over! Thanks for all your wonderful comments & honest feedback. #lovemyfollowers"
Robin Cousins wasn't so happy and admitted that he didn't want Beth Tweddle to win over Matt Lapinskas.

15. Re: Unable to login into MOBILE SERVERkrishnamohand Feb 15, 2012 6:36 AM (in response to vasileios)Thank u vasileios. I installed the above two cabs successfully on top of Oracle Lite PPC2003 ARMV4. From the device, Using msql tool, I could connect to system/system and run SQL commands, but when I try to connect to MASTER/MASTER which was created during MOBILE SERVER installation, it's saying MASTER user does not exist though the MASTER schema is present in the database.
When i tried to install the demo application (Transport) using Oracle Update tool from the device, it asked the information to register the device with mobile server. On submitting info, it prompted with the following error message:
Insufficient information to proceed
Error code: Invalid platform: WINCE: 400
Again I tried to sync up with msync tool from the device with the details: Username: JUNE, Password: JUNE and Mobile Server IP Address. It said the sync was done successfully.
My intention is to test the demo application from the device with up and running sync with MASTER schema. Please help me out.
16. Re: Unable to login into MOBILE SERVERvasileios Feb 15, 2012 7:27 AM (in response to krishnamohand)μπραβο(=well done) for making the first step.
by replacing the ppc2003 file it means that now you can download it as if it said wince5. the help file on the previous post was explaining how you can create a new platform so that besides the ppc50,ppc60,ppc2003 etc to say a new one
like ppcwince50 or something.
ok now conserning our issue.
if the msync successfully synced then you go run the msql tool on the device. there you should be able to see 2 databases one is the system(conscli) and one is your own database (this could be for example the database from the demo or your own application) . bare in mind that olite like most(or all) mobile database systems doesnt support multiuser database on the device. this means that you only got one user the user that you used in the msync tool and in the dmagent.
so if i want to connect to the first of the 2 databases shown in the msql tool (the conscli, which is the olite internal db for its own purposes) i think it is system/system., but if you choose fromt he combobox the second one you must give system as username and for the password the password of the user that you used, that is JUNE, so it will be system/JUNE.
what if i msync ok but in the msql i see only the conscli?
go to the database save folder. if you have an sd card then check it there, if not then it is in the olite folder in the handheld. you should see 2 files for the conscli and if you managed to mscync ok 2 more files of the second db(for the system/JUNE). if you only see conscli then it means that you didnt set up the second db (e.g. the demo) correctly on the server.
if that is, then go on the server in the webtogo page,login, select you application from the application and give access to your user so for example june must have access to the demoapp. moreover the demoapp should be set up for the platform ppc2003 that you are using (if you have a handheld for ppc2003 and the app is set for ppc60 then it shouldnt download right?)
the msync tool you use the JUNE/JUNE correctly. there is no master schema on the handheld, are you refering to a schema in the oracle 11g (or whatever version you are using) repository schema?if so then dont expect to see one in the handheld.
finally "When i tried to install the demo application (Transport) using Oracle Update tool from the device, it asked the information to register the device with mobile server. On submitting info, it prompted with the following error message:"
theoritically speaking, after you msync , the update tool is executed and if something is needed for download the handheld will tell you, if not you can run the update tool directly. you see the demo(transport) app there?
you select the install i guess and it tells you to register the device to the server. go on the webtogo page, login ->mobile server-> mobile devices. here you see all the mobile devices registered with your server. is your device here, or is the list empty? if it is empty then we need to register it. you need to register it BEFORE msync. so 1st you register, 2md you msync.
1st register: install the olite cab on the device and then run the dmagent.exe. give the information of the server JUNE/JUNE . it runs and you should see (at least in windows mobile 6+) a small telephone on top.
2nd you msync using JUNE/JUNE
3rd if the update tool didnt pop up , run it yourself, is there an app to download?
4install it.
5run the msql and see if you have the databases.
the invalid platform error you get kinda tells me that the transport demo is set up in the webtogo page for a platform that doesnt include the ppc2003, for example ppc60.
it is kinda difficult but not actually. the idea is that you could have 100 handhelds 30 of them running application1 on wince5, 30 running application2 on windowsmobile 6.5, and 40 running application3 on win32 clients with windows vista desktop pcs.something like that. each application points to a diffrent platform because for example a win32 compiled app will not run on windows mobile or wince.
hope it helped a little

17. Re: Unable to login into MOBILE SERVERkrishnamohand Feb 15, 2012 10:32 AM (in response to vasileios)At first, i tried installing PPC50, PPC60, but failed. The I tried with PPC2003, installed successfully, but none of its tools like msql, msync ... got recognized by the device. Finally after you said to install stdsdk500 cabs, got succeeded with their installation and able to run stdsdk500 tools too.
Coming to the issue, you are right, I could see 2 databases (conscli and POLITE(which I have created)), and able to connect using system/JUNE with POLITE.
In the devices list, I could not find the Hand Held device, but PC(Windows XP). You said we need to register the device with server before msync. To register, you said to install olite cab then run dmagent.exe. Where can I find this olite CAB?
The problem is all with registration. Even when I use this DM tool to register, its gettig prompted with the the error message "Insufficient information to proceed. Error code: Invalid platform: WINCE: 400". I gave access to transport demo app for PPC2003 in webtogo page. I think it's a problem with platform itself as it works only with stdsdk500. I will try installing olite CAB for registration. Could you tell me where can I find it?
18. Re: Unable to login into MOBILE SERVERvasileios Feb 15, 2012 11:23 AM (in response to krishnamohand)when you connect to the polite db i guess you see the demo tables right?
i apologize for not explaining it correctly. the olite cab that oracle lite keeps refering to is actually the cab file that you install.in your case it is the stdsdk500 cab file. oracle lite has many cab files for diffrent platforms, and at the end it renames them all to olite. this is what the help file says, it says to create a new platform the wince5 to copy the stdsdk500 and rename it to olite.cab and to fix the inf file which gives the initial parameters when the cab file is downloaded from the server webtogo->Setup page. so it is actually one cab that registers (dmagent) you device, msyncs(synchronizes) and one separate cab for the tools. 2 cabs in total.
so yes you are right that is is the platform problem. solutions:
solution number1:if you just want to try it out then since you have the db installed on the handheld what you need is the demoapp cab file only. find it in the olite home copy paste it in the handheld install it and run it. you hsould be able to play with the demo. logically since you msynced once you should msync again.
so based on the help file what you tried in the one that says
"Option Two: Copy the desired WCESTDSDK CAB file directly to the Mobile client from the <ORACLE_HOME>\Mobile\SDK\wince\<platform>\cabfiles\ directory. Each CAB file is named olite.<language>.<platform>.<chipset>.cab."
i recommend this only for testing, evaluation
solution number 2:solution1 doesnt mean that your device will be registered and you will not be able to see it in the mobile devices tab(and therefore execute commands, updates etc). in order to do that you must follow the help files instructions about creating the new platform. this is the correct way to do things (solution1 is kinda 'hack'-if you want to use the term)
this is what the help files:
Option One: Register the WCESTDSDK CAB file on the Mobile Server. The Mobile Server client setup page displays the predefined client platforms that you can download and install on your Mobile client device.
If you want the Standard SDK WinCE CAB files to be displayed on the Mobile Server client setup page, then register the desired platform in the Mobile Server. After registration, the Mobile client can download the SDK CAB file from the Client setup page."
i recommend this for development and production
so lets do it , it says:
register the desired platform in the Mobile Server.
ok this is kinda dificult but olite has a good note that you can follow. login in th support and
follow the steps carefully:
Applies to:
Oracle Lite - Version: 10.3.0.1.0 and later [Release: 10.3 and later ]
Information in this document applies to any platform.
The Goal of this Document is to register the Platform Oracle Lite WCESTD500 ARMV4I;US
using the olite cab file olite.us.stdsdk500.armv4i_sdk.CAB to avoid to get this error when the Device manager try to register:
Insufficient information to proceed; Error Code: Invalid platform: Wince: 400
1. Go into this directory:
2. Create the New Directories:
mkdir stdsdk500
cd stdsdk500
mkdir armv4i
cd armv4i
3. Using FTP in binary mode, copy the file olite.us.stdsdk500.armv4i_sdk.CAB
from Window MDK (can be found in Olite_home\Mobile\Sdk\wince\stdstk500\cabfiles directory).... to $ORACLE_HOME/mobile_oc4j/j2ee/mobileserver/applications/mobileserver/setup/us/stdsdk500/armv4i
then rename it as olite.cab.
4. Verify that you have the file std500.inf into
5. Create an INI file that refers to the INF file for this platform:
cd $ORACLE_HOME/mobile/server/admin
vi ppcstd500.ini (unix) or notepad (Windows
Oracle Lite WCESTD500 ARMV4I;US
[PLATFORM.Oracle Lite WCESTD500 ARMV4I;US]
6.Register the platform with the device manager loader script, as follows:
$ORACLE_HOME/mobile/server/admin/dmloader mobileadmin/manager@jdbc:oracle:thin:@suppolite1.fr.oracle.com:1521:V10GR3 ppcstd500.ini
Usage: dmloader username/password@jdbcurl filename
7. Copy the file setup_us.exe and zlibce.dll from the MDK: %ORACLE_HOME%\Mobile\Sdk\wince\stdsdk500\dmc\armv4i to the Mobile Server:
8. Restart the Mobile Server to take in account the new Mobile Client.
did it work?
ifit works then you will have a new platform, point the app to the new platform through the webtogo page, clean the handheld and install the new cab from the webtogo->setup page by selecting your newly created wcestd500 platform
btw tell your boss to buy some 6.5 devices,they are much better,more stable.win ce 5 is way too old. wince5 platform is not predifined in olite and this is why you must do all these things. if you were using win mobile 6+ life would be easier.
19. Re: Unable to login into MOBILE SERVERkrishnamohand Feb 16, 2012 9:55 AM (in response to vasileios)Thank u vasileios. It's working. I created a database 'POLITE' with a table 'PRODUCT' from the device and I built a Java-JDBC application to update the table. I run the application from the device, working fine. The application is using system/manager as the credentials. Please explain me the synchronization procedure. I understand the synchronization as below. We have two databases, one Oracle Lite in the device(POLITE) and other lies with the system installed Oracle 10g/11g. I have a PRODUCT table in system with Oracle 10G/11G, and same in Oracle Lite(POLITE). After performing some updations on Oracle Lite PRODUCT table, when I msync, it should actually go and update PRODUCT table in Oracle 10g/11g, right?
In the Oracle 10g/11g, I do not have PRODUCT table, but when I say msync from the device it's saying msync done successfully. And that too I do not have schema system/manager in the Oracle 10g/11g. Please clarify me, I could not understand this sync process.
20. Re: Unable to login into MOBILE SERVERvasileios Feb 17, 2012 6:28 AM (in response to krishnamohand)ok good for you, but as i said the second solution that oracle suggests is the appropriate one for wince5 platform. in your question,ill explain
how you make olite work in a few lines and you will understand the sync process:
1) i create a new schema in oracle 11g, lets say it courier
2) i create 3 tables there , lets say couriers and parcels and deliveries(apparently one courier has many deliveries of many parcels each )
3) i make sure all have primary keys.
4)i open the mobile database workbench (start->programs->olite->mdw)
5) i create a new project. then create new publication items one for each table, crate a publication and add the publication items to the publication
6)i change the query from the pub items and set a variable something like select .... where couriercode:=myCourierCodeVariable.all pub items must be fast refresh
7)save the project
8)open the packaging wizard, create a new application definition. select the publication you created with the mdw. publish at the end to the server.
9) open the webtogo page. login. create a new user group. create a user and add him to the group.
10)go to the tab named applications select your application(the one you created with the packaging wizard) and give access to the group.
11)select the data subsetting. you see the user.now each time you place a user in the group he takes access to the app also. select him. you see the myCourierCodeVariable
12)enter his code lets say if nvarchar '123'
13)now if this guy synchronizes he will download ONLY the deliveries and parcels that are for him , and not all the deliveries of all the couriers.
14)open the handheld, go to the webtogo page->sync select your platform ,install the client. run the msync, use your user credentials.
15)install the tools cab. run the msql. you see in the sdcard or in the olite folder in the handheld that there are 2 files name conscli and 2 named with
the same name of your publication (the one you created in the packaging wizard). in the msql tool you see a combobox with conschli and your publication
16)select your publication, enter the password of the user leave the username as it is. use the msql tool to check the tables.
17a)now you have a database in the server with 3 tables couriers,deliveries and parcels. in the handheld you have a diffrent database named as the publication
you created with also 3 tables as the publication items you created. since you palced them as fast refresh, every time something is inserted in the server the olite mgp checks if it is for the user(it checks the query in the publication item).if the new line or the change is in the query results, the mgp places it
in the out queeu. you can check it from webtogo page. if the handheld syncs it will retrieve whatever is in the outqueue for the specific user.the changes will be applied in the handheld db
17b)on the handheld, if i make a change and sync, the change will be placed in the in queue. when the mgp runs, it will apply the changes on the real tables.
if an error occurs it will place them on the error queue. advice:the error queu is the ceq table in the oracle11g, so if you have atable couriers olite will create a ceq$couriers. make a trigger there, if something is entered send an email to the administrator.
so although the schema on the server is named something, on the handheld the dabatase and the credentials are diffrent. BUT when you sync ,olite knows what to do based on the publication items queries and on its other sets of tables like the ceq,cfm and something. the user you created in the webtogo page doesnt exist
in the database, he is just a mobile user. also the schema on the server database doesnt exist anywhere in the olite.but still if you place something in the
handheld deliveries table,olite knows that they must be placed in the server in the publication items table, whatever the query says.
simple?(hope i didnt forget any step).so now you know how and why olite syncs, do your own example.
the example demo works pretty much the same way.

22. Re: Unable to login into MOBILE SERVERkrishnamohand Feb 20, 2012 12:22 PM (in response to krishnamohand)After login into Mobile Server, In "Data Synchronization->Events->Synchronize when AC power is detected" has been checked for WINCE, but when I put the device into the cradle with AC Power supplied, synchronization is not being happened. Is it required to run msyns manually every time we would like to sync?
23. Re: Unable to login into MOBILE SERVERvasileios Feb 21, 2012 6:33 AM (in response to krishnamohand)first of all when you change some kind of setting like this on the server , the client must receive it and apply it. i recommend that you update your handheld client.
to be honest i havent tried the specific setting that you mention , if it doesnt work you should open a service request in the oracle support. i know that people often use auto sync settings like synchronize when battery drops under a specific %.
of if you have applied an auto sync event as you mention and if you have all the latest patches installed then go in the mobile devices->select your device->properties: address enter the ip address of the handheld if one exists,network provider:http. if the handheld doesnt have an ip its ok.
go in the commands tab and select the update device management client. press send now. the handheld should take the command if you entered the correct ip (with the olite listening port).if it nothing happens and you see the command in the command history tab as pending then connect the handheld to the network (e.g. cradle) and click the olite phone icon(the dmagent.exe) it should start updating the olite client on the handheld. normally if you entered the correct ip and you have the latest patch installed the command would be sent directly. i insist on the patch because i had found a bug on this specific function and i had opened an sr and oracle had fixed that (at least for win mobile 6+, bug commands are not pushed by server).
if you do this client update, then try again with the cradle to see if it works. in your question if it is required to run msync, normally the events should work. moreover you can initiate server side sync by selecting the synchronize databases command from the mobile devices->command. another way is that you place a timer in your app and you manually invoke the synchronize every lets say 20 mins or something.
24. Re: Unable to login into MOBILE SERVERkrishnamohand Feb 27, 2012 11:37 AM (in response to vasileios)I think client is updated successfully. In the command history, Update device management client was recorded with status message "Completed". And I tested it after inserting the device into cradle, but no sync had happened.
25. Re: Unable to login into MOBILE SERVERvasileios Feb 29, 2012 2:40 PM (in response to krishnamohand)on the handheld open the dmagent, there in the options you hsould be able to see the start (i think button) which is the start automatic sync, once you press it what does it say?make sure dmagent is running on the handheld.
184.108.40.206 Start or Stop Automatic Synchronization
also check
188.8.131.52.1 Event Rules for Platforms
5.4.2 Start, Stop, or Get Status for Automatic Synchronization
you do have the latest patches right?
if you follow the help and still nothing happens then possibly you run onto a platform bug for the wince 5 platform. open a service request with oracle support.

26. Re: Unable to login into MOBILE SERVERvasileios Feb 29, 2012 2:52 PM (in response to vasileios)i did some digging for you on oracle support and came across the following article:
it appears that for 10.3.0.1 this power rules doesnt work for wince5, i would guess that they wont work for 10.3.0.3
im sorry:(
Problem : AutoSync Feature Does Not Work Properly with Windows Mobile CE .NET 5.0
AutoSync Feature Does Not Work Properly with Windows Mobile CE .NET 5.0 [ID 461676.1]
Modified 26-AUG-2010 Type PROBLEM Status ARCHIVED
In this Document
Applies to:
Oracle Lite - Version: 10.3.0.1.0 to 10.3.0.1.0 - Release: 10.3 to 10.3
Information in this document applies to any platform.
Autosync reports that it is waiting on condition, although the condition
which should have started the autosync process has been met.
The problem is that we don't support power managment on Standard Sdk 5.0
platform (which is the same as CENet 5.0). The reason is that the power apis
are not supported in the sdk for that platform. We do support power
managment for Windows Mobile 5.0, pocket pc 2003 and Win32.
If you are using only standard sdk 5.0 devices you can remove the power rules from
the mobile server as they are not gonna work anyway.

Anatomy of a Credit Report
Here's a guide to the pieces and parts of your credit report card and what they all mean.
Check Your Credit
Related Links
Discussion Boards
What does your rap sheet say about you? It reveals how prompt you are in paying back loans, how much money you could borrow should you decide to go on a spending bender, and how many times you've applied for credit. What it does not reveal is your salary, business debts (unless you personally guaranteed a loan), and whether or not you're a generous tipper.
Your credit record also might not reflect all of your credit accounts -- such as travel, entertainment, gasoline card companies, and credit unions -- since some of these creditors do not supply information to the credit reporting agencies. Your deposit information, such as your saving's account kitty, are not part of your credit report. An individual credit report does not contain your FICO score, as calculated by Fair, Isaac. (For more on your FICO score, click here.)
Here's a rundown of what you'll see on your credit report from the big three consumer credit reporting agencies (Equifax, TransUnion, and Experian).
Identifying information
Obviously your name, address, phone number, and Social Security number appear on your credit report. But the report may also include a list of your current and previous employers, and even previous home addresses.
Your credit history
Your credit history is the centerpiece of your credit report. It includes a breakdown of your debt -- including:
- Late payments (30 days and longer)
- Outstanding debt (the amount owed, or size of payments for installment loans)
- The total amount of credit currently available to you (e.g., if you have a credit card with a credit limit of $8,000, even if you only use $1,000 or so of it a month)
These items will appear for all of your accounts (or institutions that have extended credit to you), including banks, credit card companies, mortgage lenders, auto-finance companies. These items will remain on your credit report for up to seven years.
Any public records
Public records include any filings of personal bankruptcy or court judgments against you. For example, if you do not pay your property taxes (tsk, tsk), your record will probably show that the local property tax board has filed a lien against you. These items remain on your credit report for seven years, except bankruptcies, which remain on your credit report for 10 years.
Inquiries into your credit
Whenever you or someone else (be it a bank, potential employer, etc.) checks your credit report, it shows up in your file as an "inquiry." There are two types of inquiries: hard and soft. Hard inquiries come mainly from lenders from whom you are seeking a loan. They look at your report to see what kind of credit risk you pose. If you're in good shape, and you get the loan, a hard inquiry will do no harm. If you apply for a bunch of credit at one time, however, prospective lenders may see that as a sign of desperation (or that you're going to try to make a run on the credit system).
If you are shopping rates for a mortgage, your report may reveal a cluster of hard inquiries. In the eyes of credit scorers (like FICO), this should not count against you, as long as you do your inquiries in a concentrated period of time (say, during a one-month period). When you are shopping around, ask the lender if they are going to make a hard inquiry to your credit report.
A soft inquiry will show up when you request a copy of your credit report, for instance. Soft inquiries do not stay on your credit report.
Getting the whole picture
Unfortunately, the three major credit bureaus don't always have the same information. Some lenders report information to just one or two of the credit bureaus. So for a truly accurate take on your credit situation, you'll have to get copies of your reports from all three bureaus, or order a 3-bureau credit report from one of the third-party vendors who gathers all the information. Your individual credit report also does not include your FICO (or other) credit score, which is a serious shortcoming since it's what lenders rely most heavily on when deciding whether to give you a loan. You'll have to pay an extra fee to get your credit score. Your overall credit score is based on all of the items that appear on your credit report. So if you want to raise your overall credit GPA, start with your credit report(s) and work from there.
In the end you decide if a single credit report is adequate for your sleuthing. And remember, if you want to raise your overall credit GPA, start with your credit report(s) and work from there.

The Hutsuls are an ethnic community in Ukraine, whose remote mountainous territory straddles across today's border with Romania in the Carpathian mountains, the areas of Bukovina and Maramuresh.
Of all Ukrainians, they've been perhaps the least exposed to Moscow's influence – be it political or cultural. As a matter of fact, the Hutsuls lived under the Hapsburgs, then from 1919 their lands were part of the Czechoslovak Republic till WWII.
The Ukrainian photographer Oleksandr Klymenko has documented for years the lives of the Hutsuls – here is a selection of his work with them between 2007-2012.

Russian émigré officers and their families at leisure - Serbia 1922.
Wars are less about destructive hardware or other imaginative ways of extermination – they're all about destroying the fabric of society and family ties. The Bolshevik Revolution and Russia's Civil War literally cast overboard several generations of educated people, and those who made it to safer havens were considered lucky to survive.
While Dr Zhivago's characters were fictitious, the real victims were millions – there were to be found on Turkish islands, on the pavements of the Balkan cities, in the libraries of Prague and European universities, most of them cherishing their dreams of reaching France, yet slowly dissolving into the societies of their new host countries. Hundreds of thousands of Russian émigrés settled down in 1919-1920 in Serbia and Bulgaria. In late 1921, in a few days only, 9330 Russian émigrés disembarked from 4 ships in the Bulgarian ports of Varna and Burgas.
Moscow's new rulers ruthlessly obliterated even the memories of their own educated exiles, shunning any reference of them that differed from the 'class enemy'. Few visual memories of the 'White Russians' have survived, mainly outside Russia and Ukraine.
18th May 2014 marked the 70th anniversary of the deportation of the entire nation of the Crimean Tatars. On this day in 1944, on Stalin's orders, they were forced to leave their homes by the Black Sea and were dumped onto the steppes of Central Asia and other places far from home.
As the USSR was collapsing, the Tatars started returning to Crimea, longing for their ancestral land. The authorities did not allow them to settle down properly and the Tatars set up camps across the peninsula. The Ukrainian photographer Oleksandr Klymenko had the rare opportunity to capture their first steps back home.

A story of national identity and European citizenship, shot in Bulgaria, Belgium and Moldova and sponsored by the Bulgarian Memory Foundation. Reported/produced by Velislav Radev, directed by Janet Barrie.
On Bulgarian National TV , Sunday 23 February 2014.
Made by barriemedia.net
Един филм за националната самобитност и европейската идентичност, за Гражданската награда на Европейския парламент. Заснет в България, Белгия, Молдова, и спонсориран от Фондация Българска Памет.
Репортер / продуцент Велислав Радев Режисьор Джанет Бари
49 years ago, at dawn on 21 August 1968, the armies of the Warsaw Pact countries (except Romania) crossed the borders of Czechoslovakia and toppled the government of Alexander Dubček. His attempts to reform the Communist regime and aspirations of a Socialism with a human face inevitably put Prague on a collision course with Moscow. The orders from Moscow were brief - the status quo had to be preserved at any cost, the Prague Spring was doomed and the tanks rolled in.
Do you remember the Prague Spring?
Five nations sent their troops, including Bulgaria. Most of the Bulgarian soldiers went via the Soviet Union, where they were briefed. Only a few of them knew the exact destination, though they were all told that their mission was to stop a counter-revolution and prevent a West German invasion. The Bulgarian soldiers stayed in Czechoslovakia till October.
Изминаха 48 години от най-мащабната операция на български войски след Втората световна война, при това не на учение, а инструктирани за бойни действия. Призори на 21 август 1968 г. войските на страните от Варшавския договор (без Румъния) навлизат в Чехословакия. Това е краят на Пражката пролет и на опитите на тогавашния водач на Чехословакия Александър Дубчек за реформи и "социализъм с човешко лице".
Бяхте ли с набори 1948-1949 в Чехословакия през лятото на 1968? Знаете ли нещо от вашите родители за тези събития?
These pictures were taken right at the end of the Bosnian War. The UN peacekeepers from Ukraine were preparing to return home to their newly independent country. During the war they provided vital services to keep Sarajevo going - here we see the damage to the city through their eyes. A flying visit also to Vukovar on the Danube, where the war for Yugoslavia's succession started in 1991.

When the Bosnian War started in 1992 among the first international troops to arrive were the blue helmets from Ukraine. The soldiers provided vital help in and around Sarajevo - from bread and water to fuel. They brought with them their own worries from a newly independent country, perhaps they had an insight into this conflict like nobody else? The Ukrainian photographer Oleksandr Klymenko documented their mission.
Do you remember the Ukrainian soldiers in Bosnia?

The stunning town of Mostar on the river Neretva was ravaged by the Bosnian war in successive campaigns. First a siege by the Yugoslav army left it badly damaged. Then came the bitter conflict between Croat forces and local defenders, loyal to the government in Sarajevo, on the eastern bank of the river.
When the war finished across Bosnia in 1996 the scars were visible everywhere in Mostar, and little was known about the fate of Serb civilians in the area. In these pictures you see UN peacekeepers visiting the Serb village of Lakat, before they return home themselves to face an unknown future in their native Ukraine. Oleksandr Klymenko was there with his camera.
Photography: © Oleksandr Klymenko
The Republic of Serb Krajina (Република Српска Крајина) was a self-proclaimed Serb entity within Croatia. Established in 1991, its separatist government engaged in a war for independence from the Republic of Croatia. The main part of the RSK was overrun by Croatian forces in 1995.
Some of the photos here also offer a rare glimpse into the refugee camp Batnoga. This chunk of Serb-held territory offered sanctuary to thousands of Bosnian Muslims from another enclave, just across the border. Their leader Fikret Abdic, once a wealthy businessman and politician in Sarajevo, was now fighting his own war of territory in neigbouring Velika Kladuša. Batnoga had been the chicken farm of his pre-war company with operations across Yugoslavia. Some of the refugees here lived in disused chicken coops before the UN provided tents and other shelter.
Do you remember Batnoga or the involvement of the Ukrainian UN soldiers in the area?

Our boys are in deep peril. Powerful and sinister forces
operate in our world right now. They are bold and
stealthy, intent on wrestling greatness from the grasp of
our boys. These forces are not always obvious.
Collectively, we can learn to spot them and beat them at
their game. We can create a generation of boys
representing our greatest achievement. As they say, we
can hang together, or we can hang alone.
Statistics collected over two decades show an alarming
decline in the performance of America's boys--in some
respects, a virtual free fall. Boys were doing poorly in
school, abusing drugs, committing violent crimes and
engaging in promiscuous sex. Young males lost ground by
many behavioral indicators at some point in the 1980s and
'90s: sharp plunges on some scales, long erosions on
others. 60
History is filled with examples of victory at hand, only
to be lost due to negligence or stubbornness of the
leaders. Every game, every deal, every interaction has a
critical moment that affects the final outcome. The
difference between winning and losing can come down to a
small event. (9)
Many boys and young men are deceived and driven to the
point of destruction simply because they believe lies
about their normal sexual development.
In Australia, 20% of teenagers will have some sort of
mental illness by the time they are an adult! These are
alarming figures whichever way you look at them or where
ever people like to put the blame.
It is like our Boys are Under an
invisible Attack!
The Bible says "...the truth shall set you free".

I just had my 4th baby (great delivery in the water, no tearing) 16 days ago and today saw my midwife who confirmed I have severe cystocele (the most severe case she has seen) and general pelvic floor problems. In addition my pelvic bone separated during labor. I am going to start exercises and PT at 6 weeks but am feeling pretty upset right now. Has anyone had this/know of good treatment options/etc... my husband is wondering if we should see an obgyn for their opinion...I am just sad.
any feedback would be awesome!
Big hugs... I'm sorry you've joined the pelvic organ prolapse "club" (and isn't "POP" just way too cheery a term for the condition?)
There's a huge, and I do mean HUGE, thread here at mdc about POP. You can read through it here..
POP is generally considered a "quality of life" condition so treatment options (both holistic and allopathic) are going to vary based on how you, personally, are feeling and what you individually find "ok". There are a LOT of things you can do right now (and congrats on the new babe!):
--- Use gravity to your advantage and try to keep your pelvis "up"... feet up is good, but getting your bladder and other organs back into place with gravity is better. Prop your bum up on pillows in bed, avoid standing for long periods of time, rock on hands and knees or in a chest to floor/child's pose with your hips up, anything to encourage those organs back into place. Especially right now. Being just a few weeks after the birth a lot can change and you want to make this period of time count!
--- when sitting, avoid those donut pillows and use a memory foam style pillow if you need extra comfort. The foam will provide support (unlike the donut) without too much pressure.
--- homeopathic treatments like pulsatilla and arnica, herbal tonics like red raspberry leaf tea, Back flower remedies like Rock Rose and Star of Bethlehem.
--- acupressure on your own or acupuncture from a pro is another option. Spleen 6 and Kidney 3 are good general prolapse points, Stomach 36 can help you stay regular which can reduce symptoms and Urinary Bladder 60 is good for preventing UTIs (which are more common with bladder prolapse).
--- Mayan Womb masssage may help with POP in general (not just uterine prolapse). Mothering Magazine had an article (March-April 2010) on the massage in relation to fertility, and gave a DIY guide in the article. Search the mothering homepage for "mayan womb massage" and I'm sure you'll find the link if this one doesn't work (scroll down, it's right above Peggy's Kitchen).
--- Check out POP support forums like The Whole Woman, exercise routines like the Tupler Technique (the BAKS basics are free online, there are mdc threads about the technique, and you can start more or less as soon as the babe is out... her Mummy Tummy book has great ideas for pelvic floor healing too), and books like Beyond Kegels (a life saver in my bladder prolapsed world) and Ending Female Pain.
--- stay hydrated and regular by whatever means necessary. Void often and as fully as possible (void, stand up, then void again while leaning forward and pressing against the pubic bone or lifting the lower stomach area can help get more out of a saggy bladder). Aloe vera juice or prune juice can help with regularity, though I've often resorted to a short course of miralax or other over the counter laxative to make sure I avoid constipation right after birth.
And over all... just hang in there! There are schools of medical thought that wont even diagnose a "permanent" prolapse until a year postpartum, and symptoms that will resolve gradually once pregnancy hormones (and then breastfeeding hormones) are no longer playing such a large role. Prolapse is becoming one of the more commonly reported conditions in younger women, but the medical world still sees it as an end-of-life condition and some of the attitudes out there can be pretty scary. Attitudes and treatments are changing, and options are opening up all the time. It's really normal to feel let down or "broken" (I've been living with POP for 4 years now and still have bad days). Just be gentle with yourself, enjoy your baby, and remember it's going to be ok!

First of all THANK YOU so much for writing and taking the time to share so much information. I knew something wasn't quite right and when my midwife told me what was going on on top of the pelvic separation I just felt so saddened. It was nice to know I am not alone and also to get some feedback as she just told me to order a book, start exercising and that we would start PT after my 6 week appt....
When you have a moment I have a couple questions. For the remedies you suggested, can you give me more info or point me where to look. I think I have read about red rasberry leaf tea for after pregnancy but have no idea what to do with the rest of the info. Are they also teas? tintures?
How much do I "need" to stay off my feet? Since I have three kids 3--8 that I homeschool (plus the new baby) I am wondering is it important I get help for the next few weeks so that I can actually lie down a bit during the day? Is sitting just as bad as standing? my husband was home this week so I was able to be off my feet lots but I am having a hard time imagining how to do this when he returns tomorrow and don't want to cause things to be worse...
this is a bit of of TMI question, but I don't see where anyone has mentioned it. I have some "bits" that hang out of/into my vaginal opening and they are dry, red, irritated and painful (which makes sense to me since they don't belong there...) Is there anything to do to/put on the area so that it does not hurt so much or get so irritated?
and I guess I am just confused about the whole thing in that I don't understand if the chances are things will improve or I need to find a way to get used to this awful, painful feeling...Obviously its pretty upsetting and I really appreciate you taking the time to give me so much help.
thanks again,
thanks I'll check it out...
Let's see...
Red Raspberry Leaf... there are a lot of options. I generally drink Traditional Medicinal Red Raspberry Leaf tea since it's available at most grocery stores and not that expensive (I've been drinking RRL since I was a teen dealing with really bad menstrual cramps), but there are other teas and tinctures out there. Mountain Meadow Herbs makes a nice tincture blend if you don't like the tea, and I believe Earth Mama Angel Baby cramp tea is also mostly RRL. The idea is that RRL works to "tone" the uterus and that's a good thing for most women in general, but great for prolapsed women in particular.
For the homeopathics, I think I was taking arnica and pulsatilla 200c every 15-20 minutes at first, then 3 or 4 times a day, then as needed. If you know a homeopath you might see if a different dosage would be better for you (since dosage/schedule is highly individual) but that general dosage/guideline should be ok.
Bach Flower Remedies... they're available at my local Wegmans grocery store, but they're also available at various health food stores and Whole Foods. They're aimed at specific conditions, so you might check their website to see if there's a specific remedy that calls out to you.
Chapping/dryness- I found that sitz baths (often with the red raspberry tea and some salt) helped, especially if I followed up the sitz bath with some aloe vera gel. It was messy, but did soothe the tissue and reduce swelling. Staying hydrated and regular also helps me keep stuff "in where it belongs".
Staying off your feet- well, POP is a quality of life issue. So if you are up and about and find your POP feels worse, then that's "too much" for you. During the first year of my POP I kept a tiny daily journal (I forget the company, but it was a page and a half with little boxes for each day of the year, designed to record menstrual info and stuff like that). I kept track of how well I slept, how active I was, and how "lapsie" I felt at the end of the day. This helped me figure out my own limits but also helped emotionally as I was able to see that, over time, my symptomatic days really were becoming fewer and further between even though it didn't really "feel" that way. The goal during the early days is to have gravity pull your organs back "up and in" while your body is still doing it's big time healing form birth (your uterus is moving anyway and you want it to move as much as possible so that other organs can shift back into place too!)... so standing/sitting/walking all those things that involve gravity pulling "down and out" on already weakened tissue can be a problem. But I know how hard it is to add young children to the mix! Can you try things like nursing your newest while side lying on the couch with your other kiddos in the room? Or playing on the floor (you in a chest down/bum up position) with them? Or sitting in a recliner set waaaaaay back so gravity will be your friend? Every bit helps so don't worry if you can't spend a week in bed with your hips up! Just do what you can.
Options- once you're past the first few months and your hormones/body have stabilized a bit you can try things like a pessary (or a sea sponge) to hold everything up/in a bit more (this can help with the chaffing and dryness too). There are hormonal creams you can use on vaginal tissue (once breastfeeding is established if that's a concern). Kegels and similar exercises can work wonders if done properly, and you'll find the exercise routine that is both manageble for your schedule and works best at reducing symptoms. The general medical statement is that "prolapse wont get better without surgical intervention" but there are LOTS of women who really have found that they can reduce their symptoms with time, effort, and behavioral changes. I'm nowhere near as symptomatic now as I was in the first year, or even the second year. But if I overdo it, I know about it, and there are things I can't do anymore. For example, I can't use my diva cup at all, I've been warned I might have trouble with a IUD (should I ever go that route), a long day on my feet chasing kiddos means a "lapsie" night and chaffing the next day, I need to stay on top of my hydration/elimination to the point of near obsession or the impact on my prolapse is "not good", I may eventually need surgery (once I'm past the whole childbearing/breastfeeding years) if my symptoms worsen with age (not uncommon, but not a sure thing either).
I wish there was more clear cut info for you (and me both! lol) but POP really is a frustrating and understudied condition. It's only moved closer to the spotlight in the past few years and there are still a lot of care providers who either see POP as "inevitable" for women who have had children, or "inevitable" for women as they age, or as "just" an end of life issue that can be dealt with using surgery and depends, or "just" a surgical opportunity waiting to happen. It can take time/effort to find a care provider who is up on the literature, open to non-surgical treatments, and still willing to take your symptoms and quality of life seriously.
Hang in there and good luck with the PT! It can make a big difference. :)

once again a million thank yous....I will write more when I have two free hands, but just wanted to let you know how very much I appreciate this.
Just wanted to chime in and say how much I'm appreciating this info., too. I had cystocele/rectocele issues after my second birth, and it contributed mightily to the depression I suffered then. Everything I read was so dire. I am a distance runner and thought I could never run again. I thought sex would hurt forever. I thought surgery would be the only help and then there would be the terrible side-effects of surgery. After time, kegels, losing weight, getting more core/pelvic tone back, and eventually less frequent breastfeeding, things got SO MUCH BETTER. Of course, I'm 1 week post partum now and right back to feeling bad. I just keep trying to remember how much things improved over time the last time--of course, I'm scared this is progressive and will be worse/more permanent this time than the last time.
Does it always get worse with each successive pregnancy?
Also, anyone know if there's a relationship between those tummy tightening belts and worsening the prolapse? I always have bad muscle separation, and this time I thought I would try one of those tummy squeezing belt things to speed that side of recovery along, but it seemed to make the prolapse worse--like it smooshed everything downward. Of course, I also started wearing it around the time I started getting up and walking around more, so it could be coincidental. ??

Yes, those tummy tighening belts can make prolapse worse. Basically, think of your abdominal cavity like a balloon. You squeeze one part and another part pops out. I found that I couldn't carry my (very fat) baby girl in a sling because of my prolapse, for the same reason. It required too much abdominal support and even the hip belt for my ergo squished things out too much. It did get better over time. I will say, now 3 years past the birth that caused the injury for me, that things are generally good. I do lots of core/abdominal/kegels work daily, and I did have about 4 months of pelvic floor physical therapy. Upon the advice of my PT, I did see a urogyn and was fitted with a pessary. I actually didn't end up using the pessary on any regular basis, but I'm glad that I have it. This year I decided to train for a marathon and I found that when I run longer than about 5-6 miles, I can feel things "falling out" again. My solution: I wear the pessary for long runs, and it works like a charm.
In any case, the basic principle is that you don't want to do anything that causes downward pressure on your abdomen. Rather than wearing a belt, do the exercises that are described in either the "Lose your Mummy Tummy" book or "Exercise After Pregnancy" book. Both are very good. When you do kegels, make sure you're ONLY activating that one muscle. And when you're doing anything for abdominal/core work, STOP if you feel any pressure on your pelvic floor. Ideally, you want to activate your pelvic floor first, and THEN do your core stuff. Worry more about doing the exercise correctly, and less about how many or how hard you do it. That will come with time.
Best of luck with your healing! It *does* get better.

Thank you so much! I have stopped the tummy belt the past few days & already feel better. Will dig out my Mummy Tummy book (we moved a few weeks ago so--bec. of the baby--many things are still in boxes...).
Good point about the Ergo. I wore DD2 in the Ergo all the time, and I'm sure that made things worse for me last time around. I'm gonna have to just find alternatives whenever possible with DS.
So glad to know I'm not alone!

Audit Identifies Improvements Needed in MassHealth's Eligibility Process
State health agency does not adequately verify income and state residency information
BOSTON, MA —State Auditor Suzanne Bump today issued an audit of MassHealth, which found the process for verifying self-reported income and residency information needs improvements and may be costing the Commonwealth millions of dollars annually in Medicaid expenses.
MassHealth, with expenditures of over $12 billion, provides access to healthcare services for approximately 1.3 million eligible low- and moderate-income individuals annually. MassHealth is the state's largest program, accounting for almost a third of the state budget. Today's audit report examined how MassHealth determines an individual's eligibility for the program.
"The values of the people of Massachusetts have been reflected in the universal health insurance law which has resulted in our state leading the nation in the percentage of people with health insurance," said Auditor Bump. "Our commitment, coupled with the economic downturn, has led more people than ever before to turn to MassHealth for public assistance with their health care. It is my duty as State Auditor to ensure that MassHealth has the strongest possible safeguards in place to protect both the taxpayers and people in need. This audit today indicates that more needs to be done."
The audit has three findings:
- Inconsistent with state and federal regulations, MassHealth does not fully verify applicants' self-reported earned income at the time of application. The first verification occurs approximately one year after the applicant is enrolled and receiving benefits. In addition, MassHealth does not verify information about an applicant's unearned income (non-wage incomes such as lottery winnings, stock dividends, pension payments, and rental income). The lack of verification creates a potential for an ineligible applicant to receive health benefits for a year before MassHealth removes them from the program.
- MassHealth has not established a process to effectively verify the state residency of applicants and, as a result, thousands of non-Massachusetts residents may be inappropriately receiving healthcare benefits. Current MassHealth policy is to accept self-declaration of residency and to verify residency only in cases where conflicts are found within an applicant's information. This policy complies with MassHealth's legal obligations but creates a process vulnerable to fraud. In 2010 MassHealth spent $6,456,195 on healthcare services for 4,643 individuals who were subsequently removed from the program for not being a Massachusetts resident, for receiving benefits from another state, or because their whereabouts were unknown. The audit suggests that MassHealth follow the lead of states such as New York, New Hampshire, and California which ask for a driver's license, utility bills or other documentation to prove residency.
- Despite its own policies, MassHealth does not always follow through on investigations when applications contain conflicting income or residency information. MassHealth recipients must be Massachusetts residents, but the audit cites two cases, one of a woman who provided extensive documentation of her residence in Florida, and another of a family visiting from Greece on a medical visa, where MassHealth failed to follow its own policies to investigate obvious residency conflicts.
During fiscal year 2010 MassHealth provided health care benefits totaling over $12 million to 15,999 individuals who presented MassHealth with foreign passports or temporary visas. Even though the residency information provided by these members directly conflicts with their federal status as temporary visitors, MassHealth does not have a process for resolving their resident status.
Among other recommendations, Auditor Bump has called on MassHealth to leverage existing information held by the Internal Revenue Service, the Massachusetts Department of Revenue, Social Security, and the Department of Unemployment Assistance to verify submitted income and residency information at the time of application.
The Office of State Auditor Suzanne Bump conducts financial, performance, and technical assessments of state government's programs, departments, agencies, authorities, contracts, and vendors. With its reports, the OSA issues recommendations to improve accountability, efficiency, and transparency.

Rage Against the Machine's Tom Morello Performs With Bruce Springsteen on 'Jimmy Fallon'
Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello performed several songs with Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band on 'Late Night With Jimmy Fallon' last night (March 2) and it was quite the onstage collaboration. It was a collision of hard rock and classic rock and the result was nothing short of explosive. Out late on a Friday night or catching up on Zs after a long week and therefore missed the performance? Don't fret. We've got footage below for you to enjoy.

The Great Lakes were several large bodies of water that existed on Earth's North American continent along the border between the old nations of Canada and the United States of America. There were five Great Lakes in all, connected through various rivers to the Atlantic Ocean. (DS9: "Little Green Men")
On Earth Two, which was an exact replica of Earth, a series of lakes identical to the Great Lakes could be seen on that planet's northern continent. (TOS: "Miri")
The names of the five lakes shown are Ontario, Erie, Michigan, Huron, and Superior.
The Great Lakes are not mentioned in dialogue but can clearly be seen on a United States wall map in "Little Green Men".

Re: does this look like a partial profiled barrel
Fifty Driver
may I ask you in your professional opinion as gun smith or any other respected smith on this board
not being a gun smith or an engineer but forgive me if iam wrong but when you order a barrel for a customer does It come with the contour that require and have asked for ??
also why would a barrel that is supposed to be brand new from the factory and not finished come with an 11 degree crown and half a cut chamber which perfectly fits a 6mm BR case it has no threads on the barrel shank so leading me to believe its been cut off hence half the chamber is left,also isn't a new barrel suppose to have the caliber and the twist rate stamped on the end of it ??
would any smith purposely order or a totally wrong contoured barrel and then take the time and effort to contour it yourself ?? also if I take this barrel and have it re contoured to what I wanted which was a medium sporter Krieger #3 would this effect the barrels performance ??

Re: does this look like a partial profiled barrel
here are a few photos which may help you answer my questions
These photos are of the chamber which has been left in the barrel I must state I have had the barrel dressed on a freind lathe as it looked like it had but chopped of with an axe

Re: does this look like a partial profiled barrel
Ackley (Funky Pete [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]),
Can i just bring to your attention That Lother walther supply barrels in various stages of completion, from an unprofiled blank to a full short chambered, contoured, threaded and crowned barrel, ready to go.
It looks to me like you have something in between.
I am a toolmaker/precision machinist and can tell you that barrel profiling on a manual machine is not a task to be taken lightly.
From your pictures it looks like you have a barrel that has had the barrel tenon chopped off, ready for the tenon to be re-turned and the chamber to be re-cut.
The barrel tenon is always turned before chambering.

Re: does this look like a partial profiled barrel
hi Centre Punch
i was not going to get involved in this but the barrel and action was sent to me so i am privy to how it came.
the barrel looks to me as if it was chambered in 6mm BR an was ready for fitting to a action. then as you say the tenon has been chopped of leaving a partial chamber. a 6mm BR fits in perfect.
it looks to have a 11 degree crown on and i have personally checked the twist rate on the barrel using the cleaning rod method. i tried it 10 times and it was precisely 1 in 10 twist every time. not ubove or below bang on 1 in 10.
i have been asked to get the barrel he ordered and i don't think loather do a 1 in 12 twist.
the barrel looked to me as if it has been rough parted on a lathe with a parting tool. this left it looking very untidy so we dressed the end up to make it look more presentable.
we was going to remove the hole of the chamber but this would leave the barrel at 24" i would say that the barrel was never intended to go on Pete's rifle.
i am not a gunsmith. so i to would be very interested in hearing from some of the gunsmiths on hear as i know they will tell it how they see it.

Re: does this look like a partial profiled barrel
First check to make sure the barrel is not used.
It looks like a # 7 or #8 target taper, and it has had
the tennon cut off if there is less than 3" of strait
barrel on the chamber end.
The only reason for doing this is to change thread sizes
(remingtion to mauser for example) or to fix a screw up.
So it looks like this barrel was completed at one time
because the crown is the last stage of the machining
of a barrel.
It should be usable .

Re: does this look like a partial profiled barrel
In my opinion, That looks like a barrel that was finished for another rifle and as mentioned has had the threaded shank removed.
Also in my opinion, the only correct way to get a true world class barrel is to order it in the contour that you want. Now I am not saying it is not possible to contour a barrel blank and get results but it is highly uncommon for an experienced smith to order a barrel of a contour or profile other then what they want and then contour the barrel themselves.
If contoured incorrectly, it is extremely easy to induce a stress into the barrel.
As far as the other machining on the barrel, that is certainly not my practice to set up a barrel which is as follows.
1. Take a new barrel blank
2. Dial in the barrel in the lathe chuck, breech end out, for zero bore run out.
3. Fit the bore with the proper live pilot bushing that fits the bore diameter to 0.0002" or less.
4. Take my live piloted 60 degree center cutting tool and center cut the breech end of the barrel blank. This perfectly conventric 60 degree cone cut will ride on my precision 60 degree live center in the tail stock. Then reverse the barrel in the chuck and do the same to the muzzle end so both ends have a perfectly concentric 60 degree center cut to the axis of the bore.
Then pull the barrel out of the lathe chuck until only the barrel shank is held by the chuck and the muzzle is supported by the 60 degree live center at the tailstock. I then take a very light truing cut, roughly 1/2" to 3/4" long, just deep enough to get a perfectly true cut on the muzzle that is concentric to the bore. In most barrel blanks this portion of the barrel is scrap anyway so no barrel length is lost.
5. Pull the barrel out of the chuck and then chuck up the barrel with the muzzle in the chuck clamped on the trued section at the muzzle and the breech extended down the lathe bed and supported by the 60 degree live center and dial in the muzzle end at the chuck to zero run out.
6. Now the barrel blank is turning perfectly true to the axis of the bore supported by the 60 degree cut at teh chamber end riding on the live center.
7. Cut the barrel shank to dimension, again perfectly concentric to the axis of the bore.
8. Thread the barrel shank, again with barrel in same set up perfectly concentric to the bore.
9. when threads are finished and proven to fit the recut threads of the receiver I bring in the three finger steady rest. With the chamber end again supported by the live center and the barrel spinning at anywhere from 150 to 300 rpms(not important here) I will adjust the three support fingers of the steady rest to ride on the freshly cut barrel threads which again are perfectly concentric to the axis of the bore.
10. With the steady rest supporting the chamber end of the barrel contacting the barrel threads, the tail stock is pulled back and the 60 degree live center is replaced by my JGS floating reamer holder.
11. The desired chambering reamer is fitted with the live pilot bushing that is 0.0002" or less fit to the bore and the initial chamber cut is taken roughly to the point where the full diameter of the reamer shoulder is cutting.
12. Then I replace the chamber reamer and floating reamer holder with a drill chuck with a cobalt drill bit that is roughly 20 to 30 thou smaller then the shoulder of the chambering reamer. A shallow cut of 0.300' is taken with the drill bit and then the chambering reamer/floating reamer holder is put back in the tail stock and I take cuts from 25 to 50 thou per pass with the chambering reamer until the drill cut is removed.
13. This process is repeated until the chamber is cut to the proper headspace. In this way, the bulk of the chamber is drilled out but the reamers live pilot always has full contact with the bore to insure a perfectly concentric chamber to the bore.
As you can tell, never once have I mentioned anything about cutting the crown and that is because it is the very last thing I do on the barrel and I can not think of another smith that would cut a crown first and then do the threading and chambering of the barrel.
Also, I have never seen a barrel blank that had anything but a saw cut muzzle with generally a slight 60 degree cut for a center support surface.
Personally, if I ordered a custom barrel blank and it came with a partially cut chamber, at least one long enough that a live piloted chambering reamer would not get full contact before beginning cutting the chamber, I would return it instantly because if your live pilot reamer will not be supported, your dependant on the concentricity of the original cuts in the barrel and I would not put my name in the hands of others.
Just my opinion, to look at that barrel, it looks like its a barrel that has been finished, ready for installation and then had the barrel threads chopped off and then shipped to you.
If it is not the contour you ordered and not the twist you ordered, return the barrel and get what you ordered, simple as that. If they do not work with you to get you what you ordered, there are alot of other world class barrel makers around to choose from!!
Just my opinion, take it for what you will, just another opinion but I would not be happy to receiver a barrel like that and from what you say I would return it instantly for what you ordered. That is the point of ordering a custom barrel by the way, getting exactly what you want.

Thank you and 50 driver for taking the time to reply and my answers,It looks like my suspicions were true and I have been messed about and lied to for the past 4 months,I even had to order my own reamer as the smith didn't even do that,here is the quote that the "smith" sent me when I asked the very same questions which the both of you have clearly answered
 partly contoured, you didn't give me time to Finnish it, you said you would get it finished your end, which included profiling threading and chambering.
its in the twist you requested,, which was i believe 1 in 9.
its not used at all. its been roughed to length, centerer reamed one end with my throat positioning, chamber start reamer.
If you aren't happy with it send the ****** back to me and i'll use it for something else.
Not bad considering I ordered a 12 twist and the "smith" assured me he had sent my old barrel which was a Krieger #3 to Loather to have an exact copy done,So between all the lies and excuses Iam back to stage 1 waiting for the correct barrel to arrive and I have been left with this thing he has sent me
Not really good service form a so called master gunsmith
Pete Lincoln of Roe Dale Precision Rifles
he has neither ordered the correct contoured barrel ordering a #7 instead of a #3 he has denied I ordered a 12 twist,OK say lets assume I did order a 9 twist as he Pete Lincoln has stated  BUT I DIDN'T I ORDERED A 12  This has even been proved wrong as the barrel Peter has sent is a 10 twist,so this is becoming quite clear that he has tried to fob me off with a totally wrong barrel which he probably was stuck with.
Another strange thing the reamer I ordered myself I may add as Peter Lincoln hadn't even ordered it when I spoke to the reamer company asking why the reamer hadn't been delivered,I was informed Mr Lincoln had not placed an order for my reamer,when I questioned Mr Lincoln of this he said the company was hard to get hold of on the phone so he e mailed the order,
Strange I got them on the phone within 2 mins first try and my order was placed and paid for within 10 mins,and have since been in contact with the reamer company and have got through every single time,they even went to the trouble of sending me ANOTHER reamer direct to Mr Lincoln as he stated he hadn't received the first one,which later on about a week or so later it turned up,So he also owes me the second reamer which i haven't been sent yet
I have since re ordered the correct contoured barrel through Col48 who has not been it the game very long and has informed me within 20 mins of placing the order Loather do not supply a 12 twist in 6mm only a 8.9 or 10 and after doing a little homework I have gone for a 10
So after this harrowing experience with Pete Lincoln Master Gunsmith which i might add has cost me over £50 in phone calls trying to find out where my rife was as i wanted it back as he didn't do the job on time it took over 2.5 weeks to arrive and again more excuses than a politician at election time,Germany must have the worst courier system in the world,as i also know someone who will remain nameless who has been waiting 5 months for a bush from Mr Lincoln to arrive which has been sent out 2 separate bushed which has never arrived to this day
I have been speaking to quite a lot of his dissatisfied costumers in the UK and they all seem to get the same excuses
I would like to point out through my own personal experiences with this company to anyone who may be thinking of using him PLEASE THINK AGAIN
The standard response when questioning Mr Lincoln when you finally get hold of him is
I run 2 jobs,Iam only part time gun smith,at the price's i do the jobs for what do you expect,I build accurate rifles at half the cost of everyone else
Pete Lincoln if you do happen to read this no one is disputing you cannot eventually put together an accurate rifle,I have ran my own very very successfull company for 19 years and I have never in all my time dealt with anyone who has given as many excuses as you have given me being wrong or right also may I add there is no excuse for poor and no communication and being the cheapest person on the market does not give you the right or authority to keep other peoples rifles on your shelf way way over the estimated time.The reason why you got my job was not because you are the cheapest it was because you stated categorically that you would complete the re barrel straight away as soon as ALL component parts arrives,2 months after deliver of all parts still no job done.
Iam sure Pete Lincoln there will be many people reading this post who would like to see a full explanation how this situation has come to this point
I would like to add I have not paid for the barrel he has sent wrong BUT Iam quite prepared for Mr Lincoln to have the barrel collected at his expense as soon as he refunds me the £150 he has owed me for over 1 year plus the extra reamer which he has,I will forget my shipping costs to him of my rifle which was £47 and all my phone charges trying to track him down
