3D is NOT for everyone
A LOT of beginners - and I underline a LOT - are misled or misguided or misinformed into thinking they should set up their 450's for 3D because that is the way to learn. BUT there is another helicopter world that has nothing to do with 3D - called SCALE flying and approximates as close as possible real flying in a real helicopter. Not that it is any easier - and in fact is considerably more difficult to slow fly and precision hovering and 360 degree turns around the field with coordinated banked turns instead of zipping and zapping and rocketing and imitating a humming bird on crack. OK - so much for slamming 3D - how do you setup your brand-new just built 450 for scale flying? Get out your pitch gauge and open up the pitch-curve and throttle curve menus on your transmitter and let's start spinning up.
First - and most importantly - get rid of all that negative pitch. -2 degrees (-2°) is all you need in the beginning - and this is to insure you can get back down on the ground and glue you to the ground if there is any wind. Someday you may want to do some inverted flying - but there is an awful lot of non-inverted flying you will want to learn first. An ideal pitch-curve for beginners is -2 ° (low stick) +4° (center stick) and +8° (high stick). This will cause your heli to get light on the skids slightly above center stick. But what about the throttle curve? Here is where you want to start taking notes. The throttle should be independent of the pitch once you spin up. How you do that? Your transmitter can switch flight-modes (The DX7 uses "Normal" -"ST1"- "ST2") and each of these flight-modes has its own throttle-curve and pitch-curve. Using the DX7 for this example - set the throttle curve in "Nomal" for 0-25-80-80-80. This will spin up your engine and hold about an 80% head speed above the 1/4 stick position. Set the throttle curve in "ST1" for 80-80-80-80-80 . This will hold a constant head speed constant in all stick positions. Now here's where it gets slick with the stick. Set the pitch curve in "Normal" for -2, 0, 3, 3, 3 on your pitch gauge. Note: The numbers in the DX7 are not degrees - they are percentage - you need a pitch gauge to convert the numbers into degrees. Set the pitch curve in "ST1" the same way except the last two points on the curve will be 5° and 8°. Your pitch curve will be -2, 0, 3, 5, 8. "Normal" flight-mode will be for spinning up and spinning down - "ST1" will be for flying.
First Flight test: Spin up in "Normal" - bring up your collective stick to about 25% (this will spool up your engine but not take off). Switch to "ST1" and continue to bring up your collective (gradually) until you have lift off. Now you are controlling altitude with pitch and
Note: At any time you want to shut off the engine - try to avoid slamming the collective down - this negative pitch will pull the heli into the ground. Condition your finger or thumb or big toe (whichever works for you) to switch ON throttle-hold or throttle-cut when you panic. This will maintain your positive pitch on the blades and help eliminate the pan-cake effect.

Hi, Capt Jack I started learning to fly about five weeks ago. Learned on a V911.bought a mcpx.Someone suggested upgrading the tx to DX6i.So I did,received in the mail yesterday,and plan on programming it today.are the above mentioned settings good for basic hovering and slow speed practice?Also just bought FAQ 102 book lots of good advise in there.any help would be greatly appreciatied. Thanks Mike.
Hi Mike - same procedure for your DX6i. There are 2 flight-modes - NORM & STUNT. Each mode has its own throttle-curve and pitch-curve (THRO CUR and PITC CUR on the ADJUST LIST. The modes are selected with the F-MODE switch on the top-right of the transmitter. Take it easy with that mCPx - they are a real handful for a beginner. Recommend using 25% expo on the cyclic and rudder. (ADJUST LIST -> D/R & EXPO -> AILE 60% 25% | ELEV 60% 25% | RUDD 60% 25%) Start polishing those rotors!!

Good post CaptJac,
I was thinking of posting up a topic asking whether I should look into 6ch helis at all, as I do not plan to do 3D, rather going for the scale flight style.
This makes me feel that it is still ideal to head for a CP heli, gonna be hard to find a scale bodied CP soon though with the huge rise in 3D interest these days.
To me Scale flights seem like they would easier on the Wallet too

Just For Reference: For myself, using the install script worked except that I had to manually add "exec /usr/bin/VBoxClient-all" to .xinitrc to get the display to work properly.
it worked fine for me. normally when i run the addon in say ubuntu, one click in virtualbox's gui did everything. but in bt4 r2, i had to manually mount the iso and run the install script. no errors, worked fine.
Just For Reference: For myself, using the install script worked except that I had to manually add "exec /usr/bin/VBoxClient-all" to .xinitrc to get the display to work properly.
Many of the VirtualBox Additions features doesn't work for BT4-R2 running on kernel:
Including:Code:root@bt:~# uname -r 22.214.171.124
- Auto-resize window
- Copy/paste between host and guest OS's
I've followed strictly to this post, and also did it more than once, still no solution.

Hello ,
I run BT4 R2 on Hardware Machine work really fine.
@ sl33p
Running BT4 R2 in Virtualbox 3.2.12 r68302 on Host Windows 7 32 bit
the VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run it Install everyting fine
the only problem is VBoxClient not autostart
You can check..
(Phobos419) already write the solution...Code:root@bt:~# ps ax |grep VBoxClient
you need start it manually
Check again if the task started....Code:root@bt:~# /usr/bin/VBoxClient-all
Then you will see all work fineCode:root@bt:~# ps ax |grep VBoxClient 6317 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/bin/VBoxClient --clipboard 6328 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/bin/VBoxClient --display 6334 ? Sl 0:01 /usr/bin/VBoxClient --seamless 6400 pts/1 S+ 0:00 grep VBoxClient root@bt:~#
Just add the line for autostart when system boot :
add this line in /root/.xinitrc: exec /usr/bin/VBoxClient-allCode:root@bt:~# nano /root/.xinitrc
Have Nice Day ^_^
Run this command and all Guest Addictions Work Fine
Code:root@bt:~# /usr/bin/VBoxClient-all

Khalifa University announced today that H.E. Yoshihiko Kamo, Ambassador of Japan to the UAE, visited their Abu Dhabi campus on Monday, December 17th, 2012, to watch a demonstration by world renowned "robot creator" Professor Tomotaka Takahashi.
Prof. Takahashi was visiting the University to host a workshop for students. Prof. Takahashi actually makes robots from A to Z all by himself. He currently holds several senior positions such as Researcher, Associate Professor at University of Tokyo, Visiting Professor at Fukuyama University and Visiting Professor at Osaka Electro-Communication University. He was a world champion of the "Robo Cup" from 2004 to 2008 and one of his robots was chosen as "Coolest Invention 2004" by Time magazine.
The event was organized by Khalifa University's Robotics Institute and the Nippon Club, a student club that explores Japanese culture.
"It's wonderful to host His Excellency the Ambassador and Prof. Takahashi," said Dr. Tod Laursen, Khalifa University's President, "This workshop is an excellent opportunity to showcase to our students the wonders of engineering and the importance of pursuing their dreams. Prof. Takahashi is very inspiring, and we're grateful that he chose to come to Khalifa University and interact with our students. We are dedicated to providing our students with the best education possible, and part of that education needs to be hands on experience with some the world's top minds in science and technology. Only through this type of high quality education will our students become the industry and community leaders of tomorrow."

The Global Quest for a Better Car Battery
U.S. is in a race to build a better car battery.
Steve LeVine says the race is on:
As China continues its massive push in renewable energy, the Obama administration is doing so as well, betting another $120 million to win the global race for a better battery. The administration is allocating the money to a Bell Labs-style project that, over a five-year period, is intended to push the boundaries of current technology and create far more powerful transportation and stationary batteries.
The initiative is pitted against competing efforts in China, France, Israel, Japan, South Korea, the United Kingdom and elsewhere. It will be headquartered at Argonne National Laboratory, south of Chicago, which won the project this week in a competitive bid filed jointly with a team of US universities, companies such as Dow and Johnson Controls, and other national labs.
Even with the Solyndras and A123 Systems of the world, the U.S. is still flushing considerably more money down the tubes policing the Persian Gulf for the purposes of energy security. Subsidizing battery research to the tune of $120 million seems like a no-brainer.

Notebook: Preseason coming to an end
Published: Monday, August 20, 2012 at 11:29 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, August 20, 2012 at 11:29 p.m.
Today marks the end of training camp for the Gators. The fall semester starts on Wednesday and then the team begins preparation for Bowling Green on Thursday.
Florida will scrimmage one last time today and UF coach Will Muschamp said he will put his players through a gameday-like routine.
Starting center Jonotthan Harrison said the scrimmage has to be taken seriously.
"If we come out with a gameday mindset, that's just helping us become a successful team," said the redshirt junior. "I just feel like that helps us get in the mindset of the first game (being) right around the corner. It's time to do work."
Now that the grind of preseason is over, redshirt senior running back Omarius Hines called this final scrimmage "huge" because he and his teammates have to unify now.
"We build our chemistry right here, through this scrimmage," Hines said. "Even though we're tired and it's been a long camp, this is where our team comes together and builds on what we've got."
Floyd hits lotto
After spending his sophomore season out of position at defensive end, Sharrif Floyd is ready to return to the spot that made him a five-star recruit coming out of high school and an impact player as a freshman.
"It feels great," Floyd said of playing defensive tackle again. "It's like winning the lottery. I'm happy to be back where I'm comfortable at."
Floyd's journey back home started in December of 2011. After Dominique Easley tore his ACL in the loss to FSU, the coaches slid Floyd inside for the bowl game against Ohio State and decided to make it a permanent move.
Floyd said the 15 bowl practices helped him make the transition.
"That was basically the start of me playing back at D-tackle," said Floyd, who recorded 1.5 sacks in the 24-17 win over the Buckeyes. "So it felt good to get my feet wet again and that was just the jumpstart."

This is very hard to swallow...a second year in a row where we are coming home after one day at the C-USA Tournament. There is no way in this world anyone could have told me that would be our destiny. After winning 22 games; stringing together 5 wins out of our last 6 games; being in position to earn our way into the NCAA Tournament with a strong C-USA Tournament run; I felt we were poised to step onto the big stage and make some noise. Perhaps the stage was a bit too big for some of our guys. Our effort against Tulsa was disappointing to say the least. We lacked the energy you have to bring to the floor to win at this time of the year when everybody is playing for something. We showed no sense of urgency at a time when a sense of urgency was very much the order of the day. We had no killer instinct when you need to put a team away. And we simply didn't fight at a time when the only way to survive is to dig in and scrap.
We lost to a more determined Tulsa team and that doesn't sit well with any of us. I take some of the responsibility because over the past few games our defensive performance has not been up to the normal standards we set throughout the year. We lost some of our bite defensively and teams took advantage of us. If we are fortunate to receive an invitation to play in the post season, I'll have to find a way to get that bite back. I am confident I will. When we are defending with energy and urgency we are a very good defensive team. When we aren't, we are very vulnerable.
One of the biggest disappointments for me is that we let a lot of our Blazer fans down. The group that traveled to Memphis to support us - the band; the cheerleaders; the dance team; staff; administrators; boosters; alums; etc - to let them all down really hurts. Our fans were vocal and enthusiastic, but our play never rose to a level that showed how much we appreciated that support. That, for me, is disappointing. I hope we have a chance to get back on the floor to put a better finish on the season than what's lingering right now. We'll know that on Sunday night.

The Sleepwalkers (edition 2011)
by J. Gabriel Gates
Work details
The Sleepwalkers by J. Gabriel Gates
No current Talk conversations about this book.
The Sleepwalkers by J. Gabriel Gates is a very creepy, atmospheric read. Caleb Mason, newly graduated from high school in California, has practically forgotten about his early childhood when he went by the name Billy and he lived with both his parents in Hudsonville, Florida. At his surprise graduation party, however, it all comes back to him when he receives a cryptic letter from his former best friend, Christine. Wanting to help Christine and suddenly realizing that he hasn't heard from his Hudsonville father in years either, Caleb enlists his buddy Bean to join him on an impromptu trip to Florida. There they encounter mysterious even after mysterious event. Why does it look as if no one has lived in his childhood home for years? Where is Christine? What has happened to put her mother over the edge? What's going on with all the clocks in Gabriel's father's attic? Just what exactly is the Dream Center? And...don't look behind you now...but what's up with the army of children who look like they're sleeping but...aren't?
Gates' novel unfolds piece by piece, with readers and Caleb slowly coming to realize what--and who--is behind some of the things that are happening in the sleepy Florida town. The end doesn't quite answer every question, but it does satisfy most. A fun book to read in the dark by flashlight--or maybe not....

Review: WOW! What a book! This book really had me enthralled from beginning to end. When Caleb Mason receives a letter from an old childhood friend, Christine, on the day after his graduation from High School, he is disturbed and a little worried. For some reason he is compelled to travel to his childhood home in Hudsonville, Florida and forego his plans of a summer of traveling abroad and helping with catastrophic causes in foreign lands.
What Caleb does not realize or even begin to understand, is he is headed into a far greater catastrophe than he could ever imagine. His hometown has become a desolate wasteland of nightmarish caliber and as memories begin to come back from his childhood, so does a voice from the past he thought he'd never hear again. Caleb is forced into a position that requires him to face his fears and figure out how to save not only his childhood friend but the entire town… and even his own father.
With a surprise twist of an ending and plenty of heart-pounding moments, "The Sleepwalkers" by J. Gabriel Gates, truly delivers!
Finally! I don't know how long this book has been sitting around on my kindle waiting to be read. Let's just say that it has been way too long. I can't even say it's because I thought that I wouldn't like it – I knew that I would. I could come up with some excuses as to why it took so long, but that part doesn't matter. What matters now is the fact that I have read it and I loved it. If I had any sort of complaint it would be that the ending didn't feel like complete closure. It is one of those that leaves some things to be interpreted by the reader, which means that it could be left alone and never touched again or Gates can write a second book and continue it. While I definitely wouldn't mind another Caleb/Christine adventure, I would have liked a more definite ending. That being sad, I still loved this book! I still would recommend everyone to go out and read this book. Now on to the good stuff.
The beginning was awesome as an introduction to the creepiness that would later become more prominent. It immediately grabbed my attention and made me wonder what was going on. There seems to be so much that is bubbling right under the surface waiting for its time to get out. I love knowing that something is wrong and not immediately knowing what it is. Christine is in what is essentially a refurbished insane asylum, but if she was lucid enough to send the letter then maybe she's not that crazy. I really liked the way that Caleb's character progressed throughout the book. I loved the fact that he is a high school graduate with the aspirations of nobleness- he wants to go to Africa and make a difference. How often do you really see that type of character in a high school student in a YA novel? Caleb is not just a good kid; he is a good kid with the dream of changing the world from the beginning.
He doesn't know that he is already destined to do great things and face an oppressive evil. How do you not help evil when you don't know what evil is asking you to do? Christine surprised me –she really was crazy, a little. But she was strong enough to overcome the loss of her twin sister, her witch of a mother and the fact that something was done to her brain. There was strength in her that I didn't expect to find. I liked that the heroes had their own pasts to overcome, and that they all stepped up even though they didn't think that they could. I can't forget about Bean, truly the trusted sidekick. I love his humor and know that he's cracking jokes even on the ethereal side. And yea, this is going to contradict my first opinion of the ending (sort of). The ending wasn't a happy ending; it was a well-deserved break for the heroes of the story. It didn't necessarily provide the closure that I wanted, but it provided hope for any future adventures. Because whatever they face next, they can say that they survived the end of the world – this time.
Recommendation: I think that if you have not had a chance to read this, you should put it on your TBR list. It is definitely worth reading.Go get a copy today!!

Full, non-spoiler review courtesy at Book & Movie Dimension a Blog
The Sleepwalkers was some horror novel! When Caleb returns to his hometown of let's say country people or southern folk this novel gets way stranger. This is a story with lots of mystery that has to do with a small town involved in some disturbing behavior. A while back in Caleb's hometown children began disappearing and everyone just turned their back on it all. A mistake really since now there are white cloaked, freaky, creatures hunting the town's inhabitants. Behind these figures exists a darker design at work. Caleb ,our main male lead, finds on his return to said town his childhood friend, Christine, and his own father is missing pushing Caleb to uncover the madness surrounding these "Sleepwalkers". By then the story gets actually terrifying with the inclusion of these twisted and vicious Sleepwalkers. The flow of the story is a smooth force that has this heady, desperate sense that is likable since it comes off to scare you. For though this is a horror/mystery novel it definitely has its own romance moments which are obvious from how devoted Caleb is to save Christine, the girl he finds himself increasingly thinking about.
The characters in The Sleepwalkers are really interesting characters. Told from a male point of view which has an intriguing storytelling to it. With Caleb being such a strait-laced guy which is refreshing. Christine, Caleb's love interest, is a pretty determined, opinionated, and all-around charismatic character as well. Then there is Caleb's best friend Bean, he brings in lots of comedic relief in how he is very frank and just plain goofy. All the chracters are good in their own way. The book sets a lilting tone of obscurity that is complementing on the whole.
This is one novel to be on the lookout for, if your a horror/mystery fan with its surreal tone of voice that is a worthy of uncovering by any reader.
Overall: Amazon read!
Genre: Horror, Mystery/Suspense, Young Adult, Occult, Psychological
I read this book right around Halloween time and it was a perfect book to read, its creepy and frightening and kept me flipping through the pages!
The Main Character Caleb recieves a disturbing letter from a girl that was part of his past, and it haunts him so much he decides that instead of going to Africa after high school like he planned he's going to go to his hometown, and visit his Dad who he hasen't seen in years, and see whats going on with his friend Christine. Arriving at his old hometown is not what Caleb could have imagined in his wildest dreams. His fathers house is abandoned but with all his belongings inside, and there's a creepy presence not only in his fathers house, but also in the whole town.
This book is filled with witches, a more sinister verision of sleepwalkers, magic, evil, and a writing style that will make your palms sweat, and entice you to keep turning the pages. J. Gabriel Gates draws you in with this creepy story, and I loved it. I've never read anything like it, and it was a perfect Halloween read. If you like suspense and being frightened by a book, be sure to pick this one up!!

Enclosing a 29" space in the ceiling
Hi All,
I have a bit of a problem spot in finishing my basement. I have a 29" gap that I need to cover with drywall that runs the entire (30') length of the basement.
Here is what I'm dealing with. My trunk line was installed directly against the the main support beam for the basement. My ceiling is very low so I do not have the option of adding support beams under the trunk line (so please no suggestions about adding support beams under the trunk line).
I know that 24in OC is the recommended maximum distance to not get sag out of drywall, so here is what my plan is, please let me know if it will work.
On the outside of the trunk line build a standard soffit wall, on the other side where the trunk and support beam meet I plan on fastening a piece of angle iron to the side of the beam. This will give me something to screw into.
Then take a piece of plywood/osb to screw up to the soffit wall and angle iron. Then screw a piece of 1/4 drywall to the plywood/osb.
First question, will this work without sagging?
Second question, what do you think is the thinnest plywood/osb I could get away with without sagging?
Again, my objective is to have the thinnest result possible. Any thoughts are welcome.
Do you have any pictures?
1 Attachment(s)
So angle iron on the left side and soffit wall on the right. Sorry I don't know how to flip it
can you get a picture from other side?
Which side specifically would you like a picture of?
side with the beam
That is the side with the beam. The top plate is fastened to bottom of the beam. The side of the duct and pressed right up to the beam.
199 Attachment(s)
You're just going to have to frame around it just like you have above that opening. Then you'll have to block between the studs at the top of the wall for nailing.
I understand that framing around it is the ideal thing. But this is not an ideal situation. That opening is a doorway. It would look bad for the doorway and the ceiling to be at the same height. That is why I'm trying to come up with an alternative. Again, these are low ceilings so every inch counts.
Would a 1/4" piece of drywall drilled to 3/8" plywood sag over a 29" span? If so, what thickness of of ply would I have to use to avoid sag?
199 Attachment(s)
3/8 ply and ¼ rock will sag in a 29 span imo. ¾ply would be fine but you should have attached the ply to the bottom of the beam before framing the wall if you wanted to save space.
How tall is the door opening?
The door way as is is 6'2". When finished will be closer to 6'1". Fixing the plywood to the beam first would have been a better idea, but I did not see this issue coming. That is where the angle iron idea comes into play, which will only add about an 1/8th of an inch. So 3/4 would be the thinnest you think I could go? Is there any sag resistance difference between plywood and osb?
Or, are there any thoughts on a different combination of thicknesses for maximum deflection strength. Like if I used 1/2" drywall and 1/2" ply. Or 5/8" drywall and 3/8 ply? Any thoughts?
the thicker the ply the better. 3/4 would be best.
To attach it to the wall use the L shaped track you can get for metal framing, if you can't get the L shaped one get a bottom track and rip it in half. Attach one leg to wall and set the plywood on top of the other leg. screw in with 3/4" screws. Then drywall.
May need to cut your door down an inch or 2
mae-ling, do you have a link to the metal track product you're speaking of?

A Bountiful man who lied to police about coming in contact with a murder weapon has been sentenced to probation.
Joshua Ian Stansbury, 37, "had nothing to do" with the murder of Andy Wendy Purcell last year in Provo, prosecutors say. But Stansbury, who had the gun for a short time in the weeks after the slaying, lied to police about the weapon.
"He bought it from someone without knowing about the murder, and he got rid of it long before police got to him," said Utah County prosecutor Sam Pead on Monday. "He just lied about ever touching the gun."
In December, Stansbury pleaded guilty in 4th District Court to a third-degree felony count of obstructing justice. A judge on Monday suspended a prison term for Stansbury, gave him credit for the 80 days he had served in jail during the criminal proceedings, and ordered him to complete 36 months' probation.
Prosecutors have charged four other people in connection with the May 2010 death of 32-year-old Purcell. Yuri Sanchez Lara, 32; Darrell Wayne Morris, 38; and Danny LeRoy Logue, 45, all face charges of murder. According to court documents, Lara suspected Purcell had told police about methamphetamine Lara had in a storage unit.
Morris allegedly shot Purcell in the head in exchange for an ounce of methamphetamine provided by Lara.
Logue was with Morris during the shooting, police said.
Purcell was found dead on his mother's front porch.
Robin Jackson, 36, of Beaver, also faces a felony charge of obstructing justice. Prosecutors allege Jackson knew what happened to the murder weapon.

1. Re: Star Office 9 on Windows Server 2008 64Bit with Citrix Xen App 5.0807578 Apr 14, 2010 4:22 PM (in response to 807578)Here's what I have been doing to get OpenOffice.org working
on our Citrix Farm using a Win2K/Win2K3 mixed-mode domain.
the same applies to StarOffice.
These were the goals:
- Give any user who wants/has to work with an Office Suite
access to OpenOffice.org by simply putting him into a
- The installation must work in a way the user does not have
to interact (read: I do not want to allow his interaction
because he is definitely going to make the wrong choices)
The painful way to the goal (as far as I got now):
Note 1: While most files are included here, some are missing
(like 100kb registry settings) but can be requested
from the author.
Note 2: Some of the scripting is ugly and may be useless.
It has evolved quite a bit since I started it, so
it's kinda messy. Nevertheless it works quite well
here, so I wouldn't want to touch it...
This solution consists of the following parts:
- modified setup file (optional)
- responsefiles f�r base and workstation (=user) installation
- installation script
- domain logon (sub)script
I modified the setup file (setup.inf) to stop the installer from giving me things
I don't want. I have tried numerous ways to do this with StarBasic but failed.
I tried the forums, I had contact with Sun developers - it simply wouldn't work
the way it was supposed to.
The installation script is simple. It's just there to make life a little easier
for the sorry guy who has to install a new machine. I tried to use a packager
to do the base installation and it horribly barfed, but then again that was in
the days before 1.1.x. It works like this so I left it untouched.
The major part is the domain logon script. There, we check if the user has access
to OpenOffice.org, check for the presence of various files and try to build his
environment as needed, taking various quirks and problems into account.
The logon script needs a connection to a share on a fileserver/SAN/NAS. For us,
it's still a fileserver, but it's the one holding the profiles, too, so if this
one wouldn't be available login would be broken, anyway. I did this so I could
slipstream newer files to the users' workstation installation if I needed to, later on.
In my installation folder, I have the following files:
dir install ; OpenOffice.org files (incl. modified setup.inf)
file common.xcu ; Modified common.xcu where I set an additional
; template folder, for example
file instbase.rsp ; Responsefile for base installation
file instuser.rsp ; Responsefile for user's workstation installation
file jobs.xcu ; Modified jobs.xcu (removed registration request)
file MasterInstall.kix ; Script to install on a Citrix machine
file OpenOffice-Associations.reg ; Override for document type associations
file wkix32.exe ; kixtart w32 executable
To install, make a shortcut to "wkix32.exe MasterInstall.kix" and doubleclick Wink
You should be administrator on the Citrix machine, of course. As you can see from
the script, installation mode is switched on automatically.
Set your '$destination' as needed!
========== MasterInstall.kix ==========
; OpenOffice.org 1.1.2 Master-Installation f�r Citrix
; Installiert OpenOffice nach D:\Programme\OpenOffice
; wgi 2004/04/28 (identisch mit OpenOffice 1.1.1)
DEBUG Off
; Installation anhand des Response-Files
$Destination = "D:\Programme\OpenOffice\"
shell "change user /install"
? "Installiere nach "+$Destination
; *
; * This would be a good place to copy some of the fonts
; * or other stuff to the machine
; *
shell ".\install\setup.exe -r:..\instbase.rsp"
SHELL "regedit /s OpenOffice-Associations.reg"
SHELL "change user /execute"
MessageBox("Installation nach "+$Destination+" beendet.","Total sch�n, ey ;-)",64,60)
========== MasterInstall.kix ==========
Let's have a look at instbase.rsp:
========== instbase.rsp ==========
wgiModule=gid_Module_Prg_Wrt_Bin,gid_Module_Prg_Wrt_Help, [.......]
Sub PreSetup
End Sub
Sub PostSetup
SetReboot( False )
End Sub
========== InstBase.rsp ==========
Some leftover stuff from trying to exclude some modules here, I just didn't clean it up.
Remember to set 'DESTINATIONPATH' to what you need.
Note that we do a "INSTALL_NETWORK". Although most people in the forums agreed that it doesn't work, it does - at least since 1.1.0.
Near the end of Masterinstall.kix I import some registry settings. For some reason,
OpenOffice.org's method of setting the associations does not work for me on a Citrix
(Terminal Server) machine, although it seemed to be the right way to do it. Worked
on XP workstations, for example, but it looks like Terminal Servers treat this differently.
So I exported the registry settings, changed the tree to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, imported them again and voila, it works. File can be requested from the author, unfortunately you'd have to replace all occurences of the path to your own path.
Should be easier to repeat the described process.
At this point, we're all set with out new Citrix machine. We can take a look at the
Domain logonscript now.

The English Defense League(EDL)opposes entry into the fair land of England of anyone who is not white or Christian or against dark skin folk. Therefore it was shocking to learn that Tommy Robinson and Kevin Carroll, who head the organization are resigning as leaders because the party has been taken over by haters. The League, allegedly was formed, to block the entry of Muslim extremists into England. However, according to Robinson and Carroll, the real danger is with the EDL because, "the dangers of far right extremism and the ongoing need to counter Islamist ideology not with violence but with better, democratic ideas." They discovered that membership in the EDL increasingly included those seeking violence against Muslims. There simply are too many far right goons whose idea of democracy is bashing in the heads of Muslims.
We wonder if Robinson and Carroll might migrate to the US and join the Tea Party. Perhaps, they can transform that group of crazies into people who seek peace and harmony in this nation. Oh, Ted Cruz, there is now an opening for the perfect organization for a nut like you!

Hey guys,
About to pull the trigger and order a CWP Limited. Long time S13 owner... had to sell the little monster to pay for Law school/Bar review... it was a bad day.
Now I have some grown up money and need a little bit more of a grown up car (one that can handle DC... the poor s13 had about 1 inch of clearance - I always felt like I was abusing a child whenever I did drive it around the city).
Any opinions on the Harmon Kardon? Keyless entry/push start is nice.. but If the HK is kinda trash, may as well save the dollars and go aftermarket. But if the HK is decent - its not much to add.
Any other upgrades/options that are a must have?
Just want to see what everyone is wishing they got or did not get.
Thanks! and hopefully I wont get to beat up on the delivery date!

City tries to keep pace with extra snow
Scott Gray, public works director for Miles City, says that while the snow clearing budget "definitely has taken a hit," the city still has enough funding and storage space to keep up.
Snow is being piled up along the BNSF right-of-way behind the courthouse by both the city and the state and local contractors clearing downtown. The city also can pile snow on Jaycee field and around the Connors Stadium area as well as around the slough, Milwaukee Park and the Bender Park parking lot. They can also pile snow in the area of the Custer County Fire Department building on the old Pine Hills property.
If more big snowstorms hit, the budget might be in trouble but, for now, funds and space are keeping up with snow clearing.
The ice skating rink by the tennis courts has suffered a bit from lack of attention by city crews because they have been busy with snow clearing. However, the snow at the rink has been packed and they have started building ice. When the crews have time, they are working on the rink for post-Christmas skating.
The Agri-Sports Complex also has public skating at various times during the Christmas break. Go to www.milescitygenerals.com and check the master schedule for posted skating times.

In an interview on NPR, DJ Shadow described early sampling as a "collage of mistakes." I really like that.
"A lot of the early sampling that was done, there's these moments where they almost sound like mistakes — sort of a weird blast of a horn that kind of goes out of tune for a moment. When Public Enemy and others were taking these moments and amplifying the noise component rather than the musical component, you were getting just a completely different way of looking at music, almost this collage of mistakes that in itself makes something so right. I thought that was a brilliant moment in music."

"The whole is more than the sum of its parts", said Aristotle in his Metaphysics (fourth century B.C), and from about that time the term "holism" or "holistic" (from Greek holos, meaning all, whole, entire, total) is used to describe the idea that a system is more than the elements that go into making it.
Holism is concerned with the whole, with the complete system rather than with the analysis of, treatment of, or dissection of the parts. The term can be applied to just about any system: physical, biological, chemical, social, environmental, economic, mental, linguistic, etc. Thus, holistic medicine attempts to treat both the mind and the body, and holistic ecology views humans and the environment as a single system.
The term "esoteric" has two basic meanings. It can refer to (a) a mystic knowledge or understanding of the hidden "inner" (from Greek word eso, meaning within) import of things, or to (b) various teachings that emphasise secret or hidden knowledge, available only to the initiated: gnosticism, hermetism, magic, astrology, kabbalah, alchemy, rosicrucianism, theosophy, illuminism, mesmerism, swedenborgianism, spiritualism, etc. Other meanings of the term pertain to something specialised, technical and difficult to master (esoteric mathematics), or to the minutiae of a particular area of common knowledge (esoteric baseball statistics).
In the modern world of commerce, holistic and esoteric artefacts can be often found side by side in shop shelves. That is because both purport to enhance and enlighten body, mind and spirit. Sometimes they are joined together, like in the group esoteric acupuncture therapy, where acupuncture as an alternative holistic treatment for health problems is placed in a group environment and united with esoteric elements "to increase the intention of expanding consciousness while promoting deep states of meditation and energetic healing", aimed at "balancing the more subtle frequencies outside of the dense physical body's energy field" by "establishing strong and harmonious connection with the higher spiritual realms".
The New Age movement, an alternative spiritual subculture popularised in the mid-1970s, can also be seen as an amalgamation of the holistic and the esoteric. New Age is a heterogeneous movement of individuals whose world view may include some of a wide array of ideas and practices, such as occultism, astrology, metaphysics, alternative medicine, collectivism, sustainability, meditation, channeling, crystal healing, astral projection, psychic experience, environmentalism, and the belief in phenomena such as Earth mysteries, ancient astronauts, extraterrestrial life, unidentified flying objects, crop circles, reincarnation, etc.
So, what exactly is the holistic and esoteric category on bidorbuy all about? On bidorbuy, the term holistic usually refers to the holistic approach to healing in alternative medicine, which purports to treat the whole person, taking into account the emotional, mental, spiritual, and physical elements; the term esoteric usually denotes mystical knowledge or practice.
As for the items you can expect to find in the holistic and esoteric section of bidorbuy, they range from books, cards, music, candles, candle holders, crystals, gifts, ornaments, jewellery and accessories to services of a holistic and esoteric nature that include aromatherapy, astrology, feng shui, reiki, runes, tarot, wicca and psychic and paranormal phenomena in general.

Hey hey,
So it's that time again for me to buy another call.. When I moved out here it turns out most of my calls didn't make the trip for some ridiculous reason!? anyway, I've blown on some Zink, Echo's, Gardner and RNT... anyway, I've hunted with so many over the years I haven't really bought any newer ones for quite some time. I've been so used to calls freezing up in the Minnesota hunting season that I've held onto the few that really wouldn't lock up as bad. So now I'm down to one duck call and would like a nice newer one and would love some feedback to what works with you guys out here... what's some of your favorite's for this wide open spaced hunting?!

Experts warn of PPP hazards
The collapse of a proposed deal between Kent County Council and Hyder Business Services (HBS) has underlined the difficulty of...
How to lead your organisation through Brexit
Find your way in the post-Brexit world and establish priorities in the face of uncertainty
By submitting your personal information, you agree that TechTarget and its partners may contact you regarding relevant content, products and special offers.
You also agree that your personal information may be transferred and processed in the United States, and that you have read and agree to the Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy.
Robert Morgan, chief executive of outsourcing consultancy Morgan Chambers, said, "This highlights the difficulty of PPPs because, by definition, there is a conflict of interest between the commercial drivers of the outsourcer and the social conscience of the council."
Last month Kent County Council and HBS issued a joint statement agreeing not to proceed with the proposed partnership, which involved a range of services provided by the council. Service areas including IT, finance and personnel will remain in-house while the council reviews future options.
HBS chief executive John Jasper said, "We could not reach an agreed arrangement which reflected the right balance of risk and reward, which is very disappointing for both of us."
The announcement followed a 10-month procurement process. Council leader Sandy Bruce-Lockhart said, "We have completed a challenging and intensive assessment period and it's disappointing we could not agree a final contract."
Experts have warned that the breakdown of the deal emphasises the importance of good preparation and flexibility in PPP contracts.
Morgan said, "Everything is down to preparation and a clear understanding that the risk-reward balance can only be achieved by re-engineering parts of the service."
There has to be an appetite to realign business objectives and services to support them on an annual basis, he said.
There is growing concern in the public sector about the impact of PPPs. Newcastle City Council recently obtained a High Court injunction to prevent a strike by public sector staff opposed to the council's plans to introduce PPP to IT services.

text: LOS ANGELES, April 4, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Microsoft Corp., the City of Los Angeles Department of Aging, Partners in Care Foundation and St. Barnabas Senior Services today unveiled an innovative program called the Exergamers Wellness Club, which combines technology with exercise, overall health monitoring and evidence-based health education from Partners in Care. Seniors in the program use Kinect for Xbox 360 to make exercise fun and to supplement other fitness activities such as tai chi. They use Microsoft HealthVault to manage and store their personal health information. Participants report improved fitness and well-being, which has motivated Microsoft and its partners to expand the program to all senior centers in the Department of Aging service area. (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20000822/MSFTLOGO) Seniors ages 60 to 80 erupted into dance during a surprise flash mob at the announcement and were joined by others in the crowd, including St. Barnabas CEO Rigo Saborio, a St. Barnabas cafeteria worker and a Microsoft marketing manager. "The City of Los Angeles is excited to partner with Microsoft, the Partners in Care Foundation and St. Barnabas Senior Services to help improve the health and fitness of area seniors," Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa said. "The Exergamers Wellness Club allows seniors to improve their physical, mental and social well-being by participating in friendly competition, interactive gaming and tracking their health information online. It is just one way we can give back to the people who have given our city so much." Seniors at St. Barnabas compete in virtual bowling tournaments with contemporaries across the country. They also dance to music ranging from hip hop to disco using Kinect. With Microsoft HealthVault, seniors monitor the benefits of their increased activity and have the option to track their personal health information, such as blood pressure and blood-glucose levels. They also have the option to share their online personal health information with family members or other caregivers they trust and use it with other health and fitness programs. HealthVault contains features that help protect the seniors' personal information.

"'Beware of the jabberwock that bites, my child,'" quoted Harvey.
Let's call the idol the jabberwock, and sing the jabberwock song as we go up.
For it is obvious that the war the jabberwock has so nobly waged has been a waste of steel and powder.
This large cage is intended for the jabberwock—when we obtain him.
He jerked open the door, but he was not quick enough for the originator of the jabberwock Jig.
You remember the musical setting I once made you for the Lay of the jabberwock?
One by one all the children's small possessions lay before the jaws of the jabberwock.
Steve had indeed, as Owen said, "laid the jabberwock low," when he discharged both barrels of his shotgun at once.
Says the shriek of the jabberwock beneath my window, 'The Hun is destroyed.
The fire went springing up, licking the white bones of the jabberwock.
1872, nonsense word (perhaps based on jabber) coined by Lewis Carroll, for the poem of the same name, which he published in "Through the Looking-Glass." The poem is about a fabulous beast called the Jabberwock.

I recently bought a new home and decided to turn the downstairs area into Redskins room. I painted it to resemble the Redskins' away uniform — white jerseys with gold pants. The top two-thirds of each wall is white, with six-inch burgundy and gold stripes painted in the center to represent the sleeve stripes. The bottom third is wood paneling that I painted gold to represent the team's awesome gold pants.
These pics were taken right after I bought the house and show the room in its previous state:
The top portion of the walls were a light buttermilk-ish color, while the bottom wood portion was the color of Gulden's mustard. Not bad, but not what I envisioned as the ideal room for watching football.
These next few pics show what the room looked like while I was painting the stripes:
I wish I had taken more pics of this process. After painting the walls white, I used one of those Black & Decker laser levels that are typically used for leveling pictures. With the laser beam flashing across the wall, I taped off the top of what would become the red stripe, then the bottom. I used three coats of flat paint for each stripe. For the red stripe, I used standard blue painter's tape. Bad idea — after pulling up the tape, there were lots of areas where the paint had bled under the tape. So for the yellow stripe, I used the green Frog Brand tape, which made a big difference — I think I had one little area where yellow paint slipped under the tape, but it took all of 30 seconds to correct.
Here we have some shots showing the process of painting "Hail" on the wall:
I started by creating a quick transparent png file in Photoshop, then projecting it onto the wall with a computer projector I borrowed from work. I had a hell of a time getting the projector level, so I went back to Photoshop and got the measurements of each letter. I knew I wanted the letters to measure 14-1/4″ from top to bottom, so I used that as my benchmark. From there, I was able to get the scale of each letter. So after taping the "H" to the wall, I measured out how far the tip of the "A" should be, and so on. I used a razor to cut out the triangles that would make the crosses in the H and the A. I painted four coats, then peeled the tape off. It looked great! I spent about an hour after that touching up lines that weren't quite perfect.
And here we have the finished product:
That last photo shows an old black & white photo of Sammy Baugh that I colorized, then had blown up and put on canvas. It looks much better in real life, honest.
There's this shot from the bathroom, which proves that I'm as immature as my wife thinks I am:
During the Summer of '12, I put a refrigerator in the Man Cave. To make my wife happy (and to get the in-laws off my back about the lack of a Steelers presence), I created a "Steelers Corner" area:
To make the fridge resemble a Steelers helmet, I put some gold helmet stripes down the center and added some helmet numbers to the top and bottom. That's one "Mean" fridge!
In March 2015, Redskins.com featured an article about the Man Cave!

Sprint has been the only carrier that has confirmed its intention to carry the phone which will probably be the last BlackBerry 10 model offered this year. The Z30 is an all-touch unit which has already been leaked in pictures and in video. But just yesterday, we passed along a report that stated that BlackBerry had cut its U.S. sales force in half.
Is there a conflict between management and BlackBerry's board? If you believe that the board wants to sell the company and hand over the keys to a new buyer as soon as November, why bother pushing out the BlackBerry Z30 even if it puts a smile on the face of CEO Thorsten Heins.

Lost 5kg in less than 2 months
I took this to regulate my hormones and to reduce my acne breakouts. I observed less breakouts prior to my period and I lost 5kg in less than 2 months of consuming 2 tablets/day. I was in the normal weight range (but could still afford to put on more weight) and now I am underweight! My clothes have more room, and my face actually looks slimmer now when I looked through my older photos. I've reduced to taking 1 tablet/day for maintenance.

I am a 53 yr old woman in menopause, i have suffered with debilitating migraines since 16yrs . finally had hormones tested and it showed low progesterone/ high estrogen . i had been started on a progesterone troach which didn't help until DIM was suggested. I tried a different brand with no success. this brand was suggested by a friend and BINGO ! migraines ceased and so did hot flashes . i take 1 twice a day . I know this is the key for me as i ran out 2 wks ago and the migraines and hot flashes returned and my sleeping deteriorated again. Have ordered more and hope it doesn't take too long to arrive . i would suggest not using mag stearate would improve the product Thank you Iherb and Source Naturals , you have made a huge difference.

Mary is finally in 9-month clothing which means we can be a little more creative with how she dresses at night. There are more and more options other than the infant sleep n' plays that she's had for bedtime up to this point.
I've been buying up a variety of adorable winter pajamas – now in two pieces – so that Mary looks as cute awake as she is asleep. As I was wrapping her gifts this year I noticed a tag on one of her pajama sets. This is what it looked like:
Well – being the Safety Mom that I am, my heart sank a bit. Had I broken a safety rule?
Then I started taking a closer look at some of her other pajamas and noticed that they also had other tags stating that they met flammability standards.
Ironically, within days the Consumer Product Safety Commission had two recalls dealing with products not meeting the flammability standard -one for children's robes and another for children's pajamas.
I started a little research to better understand the flammability standards so I can be a good consumer warrior. I learned from the CPSC's Children's Sleepwear Regulations the following:
- To protect children from burns, children's sleepwear must be flame resistant and self extinguish.
- The rules cover all children's sleepwear above size 9 months and up to size 14 and require that: (1) the fabric and garments must pass certain flammability tests; or (2) be "tight fitting" as defined by specified dimensions.
- Children's sleepwear is defined as any article of clothing, such as a nightgown, pajama, robe or loungewear and is intended to be worn primarily for sleeping or activities related to sleeping.
The next time you are in the market for children's sleepwear hopefully these reminders will come in handy!
After learning this I know I'll be sleeping better at night – Mary will be sleeping flame resistant!
