Hey there -
is there anyway to influence the number of leading zeros for the renderoutput in Max2011?
So if I´m rendering a short range, e.g. from frame 0 to 10 the output is like image0001, image0002 and so on.
I would like it to be image01, image02....
I just found a possibility to influence the leading zeros for copying objects with putting the maxOps.nameSuffixLength into the 3dsmax.ini, but nothing for the render-related stuff.
any ideas?
thanx alot in advance for any help!

Classic Crabcakes
These simple, delicious crabcakes, from Nicholas Petti, owner of Mendo Bistro in Fort Bragg, California, won the Mendocino Crab & Wine Days Crabcake Cook-off in both 2002 and 2003.
Classic Crabcakes recipe:
- 1 lb. shelled cooked crab (about 2 3/4 cups)
- 1 3/4 cups panko (Japanese-style bread crumbs) or other fine dried bread crumbs, divided
- 1/2 cup finely chopped green onions
- Tarragon Aioli (recipe below)
- About 1/2 cup vegetable oil, divided
1. Combine crab, 3/4 cup panko, and the onions in a bowl. Gently mix in 1/2 cup aioli.
2. Press mixture firmly into 8 patties about 3 in. wide; set, separated, on waxed paper or foil. Pour remaining 1 cup panko into a shallow bowl.
3. Preheat oven to 200°. Pour 1/3 cup oil into a large frying pan over medium-high heat. When hot, set each crabcake in panko; using a slotted spatula, turn, pressing gently to coat. Cook in small batches, adding more oil as needed, until golden brown on bottom, 3 to 4 minutes; turn gently and cook until browned on other side, 3 to 4 minutes longer. Transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in oven. Serve with aioli.
Tarragon Aoili recipe: Blend 2 egg yolks*, 3 peeled garlic cloves, 1/3 cup lemon juice, and 1/2 tsp. salt in a blender until smooth. With machine running, gradually pour in 1 cup vegetable oil and 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil in a slow stream until smooth, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup chopped tarragon, 1/4 to 1/2 tsp. hot sauce, and more lemon juice and salt to taste.

Gator Football Holds Full Scrimmage
Published August 10th, 2013
GAINESVILLE- The Gator football team held a full scrimmage in Ben Hill Griffin Stadium on Saturday as part of fall camp.
QB Jeff Driskel was there and practicing but wasn't in pads due to NCAA rules while he still recovers from an appendectomy.
RB Matt Jones was also there but watching from the stands as he recovers from a viral infection.
While Jones sits out, it is giving younger backs like Kelvin Taylor a chance for more reps, with Taylor even running in for a touchdown.
Another freshman, Demarcus Robinson, also showed out, hauling in a pass for a TD.
The Gators kick off their season versus Toledo on August 31.

An Honest Reflection

God calls us to different paths, and I know that you are one beautiful light that could shine through a life dedicated to Sisters who share your devotion to Christ.ReplyDelete
Here's so unsolicited advice:ReplyDelete
Start visiting convents. Start with the Daughters of St. Paul but maybe a couple other ones, too. Work with their vocations directors and talk to them about how you feel. They will understand and help you discern your next step.
You may not be called to a career but maybe you still need a job - like working at Target or Starbucks to earn some cash to pay off student loans, pay for your gas, whatever. (Or maybe you already have that? Or don't have those expenses?) Even if you don't need money maybe it would be good to find a job volunteering. Maybe that will give you more opportunities to interact with and love people who aren't Catholic.
You can take or leave the second part, but you should do the first. Even though I felt very called to married life I still visited convents - the ones I found really attractive - to make sure I was on the right path. I hope that makes sense.
Prayers for you, Margo!
Wow, Margo. I just thought I would see if you had anything new posted. You know my feelings about what you are going through.ReplyDelete
I don't think my advice would do you any good at the stage you are at. You are too far gone.
I can see how you may be feeling a calling. I really think you should pay strict attention to what your parents tell you. I'm sure they want the best for you. I won't bother you.ReplyDelete
Hi Margo. I would tell you that I have been praying for you, but you know that would be a lie. Just the same, I do wonder how you were doing. Things going okay for you?ReplyDelete
I appreciate the prayers, Bill. I've been doing alright. I have a phone interview with the vocation director of the Daughters of St. Paul tomorrow morning so I'll finally have a better idea of what to expect after talking to her :)ReplyDelete
Have you given any more thought to Catholicism lately? ;)
"Have you given any more thought to Catholicism lately?"ReplyDelete
Yes. Every day. My conclusion is that Catholics are happy and I, as an agnostic, am not. It is evident in the difference between my wife and myself. She is happier, more disciplined, organized and successful than me. If someone just puts all doubts out of their mind, they are much better off than being like me. I don't for a second believe any of it. But I have to admit that it leads to a better life than does atheism or agnosticism. Good luck in your interview. I will pray for you but I can't make any promises that it will work.
Margo, I just found your blog via your reply on Little Catholic Bubble. I have been teaching Theology of the Body for Teens for about 6 years now and something you said reminded me of something in the chapter on religious vocations. It's a story about some young men being given a tour of a seminary by a religious sister. She begins by asking the group, "How many of you want to get married and become a parent?" The guys are puzzled at her question until she explains that, unless they have that desire, they will not be good candidates for the priesthood! Both the priesthood and religious life place a person in a position of spiritual fatherhood or motherhood.ReplyDelete
"We are all called to marriage. When a priest is ordained, he chooses to marry the Church as his bride. When a woman enters the consecrated life, she is being espoused by Christ Himself. These expressions of the celibate vocation are reminders that heaven will be an eternal wedding celebration between God and His bride, the Church....
"The sign of marriage on earth is fulfilled only in heaven: our total union with God. So, when a person chooses to be celibate for the sake of the kingdom instead of the sacrament of Marriage, he or she is basically skipping the sacrament (the sign), and, in a very real way, living the eternal reality to which the sacrament pointed: undivided union with God."
That is a direct quote from "Theology of the Body for Teens", a very understandable book for anyone's first encounter with Pope John Paul's teachings. I guess what I am trying to say is that, from what I just read in your blog entry, you sure sound like someone being called or wooed by Our Lord! With your great desire to be in prayer before the Blessed Sacrament, you might even check out some contemplative orders of nuns (before TOB, I never realized that there was a difference between sisters and nuns!) who live in monasteries and who have dedicated their lives to prayer for the world!
God bless you as you pursue His desires for you!

Where Will You Go this Fall?
July 15, 2009
Great news has been coming out of the National Glass Association (publisher of Window & Door and WDweekly) regarding GlassBuild America: The Glass, Window and Door Expo. Exhibitors continue to sign up and a few companies that had previously downsized their booths are reversing course and actually upsizing. Those are positive signs for the industry as a whole.
Still, other fall shows that cater to our industry are noticably light on the floor when it comes do window and door companies. In fact, some of the companies that instantly come to mind when I think of "replacement window manufacturer" have not yet signed up to display at The Remodeling Show this year.
Internally, John and I are trying to figure out our fall show and meeting travel schedule. I thought I'd ask you guys to quanitfy your plans as they stand right now. Are you adding the same shows to your September, October and November calendars or will you be reading WDweekly's coverage from afar this year? And if you're staying home, why are you skipping? Is it a tight budget or do you feel the shows might not be worth the time to attend? Email me and share.

The AIDS epidemic is one of the premier development challenges of the new millennium, threatening to undermine hard-won development gains in many countries.
The AIDS Public Policy Training Project, based at the Kennedy School's Center for Business and Government's Asia Programs, has been stepping up its efforts to train government officials in Asia to aggressively confront the HIV/AIDS epidemic. With a recent senior level training course on AIDS for Chinese provincial government officials, and with the first training in Vietnam scheduled for January 2006, the AIDS Public Policy Training Project is taking its expertise where it is needed most.
"Despite global learning over the last twenty years about what sorts of program interventions work best, the AIDS epidemic continues to gain momentum in a number of new countries where early intervention could have prevented its spread and where little treatment or care for those affected exists," said project director Joan Kaufman, after conducting the first training on HIV/AIDS for senior officials in China.
Participants in the April 2005 training in China included the Provincial Deputy Governor and the Provincial Party Secretary as well as the governors of all 16 prefectures. Yunnan Province, China, borders the Golden Triangle of southeast Asia and is one of China's hardest hit provinces for AIDS and the place where China's AIDS epidemic began in the late 1980's. The epidemic has now begun to spread from heroin users to the general population and is rapidly shifting from mostly men to greater numbers of women.
The China AIDS Public Policy Training Program, launched in 2004, is a joint initiative between Tsinghua University's School of Public Policy and Management and Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government. Chinese AIDS experts serve as co-faculty for the twice yearly training of 50-60 senior policy makers from the national and provincial levels.
The Vietnam program will operate similarly but will build the capacity of faculty at the Ho Chi Minh National Political Academy to institutionalize the course within Vietnam's national and provincial training schools. Planning is underway for a detailed evaluation of the effectiveness of a collaborative approach to AIDS response in China and Vietnam.
Kaufman thinks there are signs that these training programs could help prevent some of the extreme effects of the epidemic that have been seen in other parts of the world. "There has been a huge increase in political will and funding for the AIDS response in both China and Vietnam in recent years. We are hopeful that our training program will provide political leaders in both countries with a greater understanding of the specifics about how to effectively halt this terrible epidemic," she said.

I did let the engine idle to see if it would quiet down, but never did. The noise goes away above 1800 rpm. The reason for the valve job was broken timing belt.

The fact that WRI does not even "recommend the use of the Product" in instances where it could "threaten" ... "injury, or significant loss" does indeed constitute a most serious limitation to "the Product's" usefulness.

I would only go into griz country with a .44 mag or a .454 Casull
When I am in Grizzly country in north central, and far north east Washington; I carry a 444 Marlin® with Beartooth® 325gr WFNGC hardcast boolits, a 41 Remington® Magnum handgun w/Beartooth® 265gr WLNGC hardcast boolits, and Bear Spray.
What the ad doesn't say is the bear choked to death on the gun after eating its owner.
That's how my chihuahua beats Dobermans!
Depends on what your hardware is
Bolt-action calibers include the .300 and .338 Winchester Magnums, .300 and .340 Weatherby Magnums, .375 H&H Magnum and the .458 Winchester Magnum.
Lever-Action Choices
The .45-70 Government, .444 Marlin and .450 Marlin are very powerful cartridges that can be used to to humanly dispatch the Bruin
Single-Shot Choices
The single-shot action is a specialized type of rifle. It can be chambered in powerful calibers, but they should only be used on dangerous game by seasoned shooters. Calibers deemed too powerful for a bolt action can be handled quite safely in a strong, modern single-shot firearm. The drawback is that only one shot can be fired at a time. Single-shot rifle calibers recommended for grizzly bears include .338 Winchester Magnum, .375 H&H Magnum and .458 Winchester Magnum.
Double Rifles
The .375 H&H, .404 Jeffrey, .450 Lott, .450-400, .500 Nitro-Express and the tremendously powerful .505 Gibbs are calibers that can be recommended for use in double rifles against grizzly
Hand gun, 500 S&W or 454 casull. 44 mag he's already on top of you and has your head in his mouth. These animals have a savage rage.
Just my opinion.
Hmmmm give me a R.P.G. Then Ill be good to go for bear country.
OMG!! That freaking cracked me up...good thing I had already put my drink down :rofl:Quote:
What the ad doesn't say is the bear choked to death on the gun after eating its owner.
You know, I wonder IF a 0.25 could defeat a grizzly once a grizzly was facing you? A neck->CNS hit should still be enough, but I don't really know if there're any places on a grizzly (facing you) where the bullet could go deeply enough to stop it.
I might be underestimating the power of this round to go through fur, skin, and muscle - but I don't know if I am.
I was once up in alaska salmon fishing and had a grizz charge me and my fishing partner. He decided to shoot, so he emptied his .44mag all six shots and the bear kept running. Luckley I always carry an 18" shotgun with slugs in alaska, needless to say it took 2, 3" slugs to finally put him down. I would not reccomend any handgun vs a grizz. as long as you have the choice a shotgun is king.
Hmmm, well the only reason I ever find myself in bear country is because I'm hunting with a rifle & my two favorite rifles are 30/06 & .375 H&H. So 06 for the little bears .375 for the big bears.
Time to worry 'bout BG's is back in a town. Then it would be most of the time a .45acp.

The shell displays a prompt, notifying the user that it is ready to accept a command. It would be nice if you could speak or type instructions into the computer in some form of natural language.
OK, Hal. Sort out my correspondence, throw out anything that is too old, and archive the rest.
Unfortunately, the shell recognizes a very limited set of command words, so the user must offer commands in a way that it understands. This means learning to string odd words and punctuation together.
Each shell command consists of a command name, followed, if desired, by command options and arguments. The command name, options, and arguments are separated by blank space.
The shell is one of many programs that the Unix kernel can run for you. When the kernel is running a program, that program is called a process. The kernel can run the same program many times (one shell for each user), and each running copy of the program is a separate process. Because each user runs a separate copy of the shell, each user is running in his or her own process space.
Many basic shell commands are subroutines that are built in to the shell program. The
echocommand is almost always built in to a shell.
$ echo "Hello, Hal" Hello Hal $
Commands not built in to the shell require that the kernel start another process in order to run.
When you execute a command that is not built in to a shell, the shell asks the kernel to create a new subprocess (or child process) to perform the command. The child process exists just long enough to execute the command. The shell waits for the child process to finish before accepting the next command.
The basic form of a Unix command is:
command name [-options] [arguments]
The square brackets signify parts of the command that may be omitted.
The command name is the name of a built-in command or a separate program you want the shell to execute. The command options, usually indicated by a dash, allow you to alter the behavior of the command. The arguments are the names of files, directories, or programs that the command needs to access.
ls -l /home/mjb
lscommand is usually a separate program rather than a built-in command. The command above will get you a long listing of the contents of the
/home/mjbdirectory. In this example,
lsis the command name,
-lis an option that tells
lsto create a long, detailed output, and
/home/mjbis an argument naming the directory that
lsis to list.
The Unix shell is case sensitive, and most Unix commands are lower case.
Some of the more popular shells are
sh(the Bourne shell),
ksh(the Korn shell),
csh(the C shell),
bash, (the Bourne Again shell),
pdksh(the Public Domain Korn shell), and
tcsh(the Tiny C shell).
You can frequently identify your shell by typing:
echo $SHELL
Unix recognizes certain special characters as command directives. If you use a special character in a command, make sure you understand what it does. The special characters are
 / < > ! $ % ^ & * | { } ~ and
 ;. When naming files and directories on Unix, it is safest to only use numerals, upper and lower case letters, and the period, dash, and underscore characters.
A Unix command line is a sequence of characters in the syntax of the target shell language. Of the characters in a command line, some are known as metacharacters. Metacharacters have a special meaning to the shell. The metacharacters in the Korn shell are:
;-- Separates multiple commands on a command line
&-- Causes the preceding command to execute asynchronously (as its own separate process so that the next one does not wait for it to complete)
()-- Enclose commands that are to be launched in a separate shell
|-- Pipes the output of the command to the left of the pipe to the input of the command on the right of the pipe
>-- Redirects output to a file or device
>>-- Redirects output to a file or device and appends to it instead of overwriting it
<-- Redirects input from a file or device
newline-- Ends a command or set of commands
space-- Separates command words
tab-- Separates command words
Some metacharacters can be used in combinations, such as
||,
&&, and
>>. With these metacharacters you can define a command-line word, which is a sequence of characters separated by one or more nonquoted metacharacters.
To access the online manuals, use the
mancommand, followed by the name of the command you need help with. For instance, to see the manual for the
lscommand, enter:
man ls

My carry guns are two older S&W model 36's,S&W says no to +P ammo,so I thought some of the older ammo from the 60's would work.The Lubaloy is a copper coating on a lead RN bullet to keep from leading the barrel.
I would like opinions.
I would not recommend lead round nose. IIRC those have a rather dismal reputation as far as stopping bad guys. Instead I would look for a standard pressure (since you have to) 158 grain lead semi wadcutter hollow point. It isn't fantastic, but it is definitely respectable. That was the standard load for most law enforcement agencies I am familiar with before the +P stuff got popular.
i carry an old model 60 and got a old model 36 (pin barrel). they will shoot +p ammo,, they will shoot +p+ ammo also. now would i do a range day with +p+ ammo? no, i don't, but 5 rounds sometimes it is OK. i carry +p+ ammo in the model 60. it is issue ammo from work. the firearms units checked the gun to make sure it was up to standards before i could carry it on the job as my "BUG". i would load her up with +p+ ammo for daily carry. remember you are only going to shoot five times before you run. reloading while running. the gun will take it,,better than your hand.
Buffalo bore sells three different loads that are standard but heavy 38 loads.
One is a 158 grain semiwad cutter which is highly regarded, sometimes called the FBI load i believe, one is a 150 grain cast lead wad cutter, and one is a 125 grain jacketed hollow point. They use the Speer Gold Dot, which is very highly regarded.
Product Line Listing
I have the 125 grain Gold Dots. Just ordered some more.
I shot 5 rounds of this while practicing for my CCW qualifications.
It is noticably stronger recoil than the WWB 130 grains I was shooting out of my 38 snub nose. If recoil is a good measure of impact and effect to the BG, then this stuff is going to do a good job. The recoil is not unpleaseant, just noticably more than the WWB stuff.
I have a link to a discussion about the fact that the reloading manuals published 30 years ago for standard pressure 38 special, would be considered +P by todays standards.
In any event, the Buffalo Bore ammo is supposed to OK in any 38 in good condition, and I really think it does pack more punch.
Price is not really unreasnonable for SD ammo either. Midway sells the Buffalo Bore ammo.
There are plenty of non +p loads available that should work better than old LRN. The ones I personally have experience with are the 110gr JHP and STHP from Remington and Winchester, the 110gr Hydra Shok from Federal, and the recently re-introduced 125gr Nyclad from Federal. The first three, and the 80gr Glaser non +P are available here:
HOLLOW POINT Ammo : Ammunition To Go
They also list some Fiocchi loads, but I've never used them and personally don't care for their quality.
The Nyclad ( I thanked them for bringing it back at SHOT, I guess all my Emails helped)
Federal Premium - Handgun Details
I have never used the new load from Hornady, but I believe I might give it a try when it comes in stock, looks intersting.
I have no experience with the Buffalo Bore, but several here recommend it highly. I'd try it based on that if I got the chance.
Product Line Listing
I have several old .38s I choose not to shoot +P in, and I typically use Nyclads in them, with 110gr Hydra Shok in the speedloaders. The Nyclads get beat up if they are carried around in a pocket or such, so I use the fully jacketed Hydras. I am also not a fan of the target 148gr lead wadcutters for SD, too slow and too little energy for me.
Hit them where it matters and it should be fine. I'm not a "deep penetration at all costs" kind of person. The body isn't that deep and I'd rather cut a bigger hole with a good expanding (or "gasp" fragmenting) bullet. It's no problem, and actually pretty common, to put a 2" needle into the lungs. A 6" needle will reach the heart with room to spare. I'd rather chop a big hole and hit more blood vessels and cause more B/P dropping bleeding than poke a small hole through and through.
I had a customer with an old 36 J frame. He carried 158gr LSWCHP +P in it and shot range LSWC non +P for practice, with a few rounds of +P added in. He practice routine was to fire the 5 +Ps in the gun, then his practice ammo, then 5 more of +P, then some 130gr FMJ "to clean the lead out". His gun broke the flag safety on the 3rd shot of +P he fired.
Superhouse 15, Do you have any idea of velocity for the 110 gr Hydra Shok from a 1 7/8" barrel,and any idea when the 125 gr Nyclads will hit dealer shelves?
A test running in another thread:
Pocket Full Of Dynamite
But, no 110grs. The Federal site used to list the barrel length for the printed velocity, but no more. Maybe it's on the box, I'll check. No idea on the Nyclads, but I have a standing order for 3 boxes at the shop.

Cpt. Elizabeth Campbell, the brilliant and beautiful General's daughter is found dead and naked in the centre of the army camp. Brenner and Sunhill are sent in to investigate and uncover a shocking story of gang-rape, cover-up and the General's refusal to put his daughter's welfare above his political career.
Following the lean, sensible legalities of A Civil Action, Travolta dons a creased tan suit, effects slovenly machismo and creates a weighty centre for this potty military murder mystery. Adhering to all the classical whodunnit tenets, this is Miss Marple with big boots on as military CID investigator Paul Brenner (Travolta) is on-hand to divulge the killer of beautiful, brilliant Captain Elisabeth Campbell (Leslie Stefanson), daughter of revered General Campbell (James Cromwell).
Set on the fictitious Fort MacCallum and shot in Savannah, Georgia, the format is simple: a horrific rape and murder on the base allows the army's own investigator to follow the clues, which - ber-ding! - all lead to far more than they ever imagined.
Simon West, the not untalented Brit who turned up the volume for Con Air, delivers it all with an easy slickness that befits a big Hollywood production, evoking a taut, sweltering atmosphere in the compound and shooting the flashes of action with a skilled hand. Travolta too is in good form. Brenner is an unusual combination of sharp mind, deprecating humour and overbearing brutality and is allowed a cutely underplayed sexual frisson with fellow investigator Sarah Sunhill (Stowe). And there's an enigmatic James Woods stealing scenes as an oddball military shrink who spars deliciously with Brenner.
But what should be powerful and stirring is just plain ridiculous. The script (to which, believe it or not, William Goldman lent a hand) lurches between logic-defying plot developments and shameless, giggle-inducidng big speeches which are obviously designed to build some all-American heart.
By the time the bulb flashes above Brenner's head and the perpetrator is sussed (it's about 50 per cent guessable) the story has wound itself up to such a twisty turny extent, tying in all the suspects on some level and establishing such a bafflingly, deep-seated motive (clue: this girl was hardly the apple of daddy's eye), it's hard to actually give a monkey's who done it. Any ironic inflections toward the American military or intelligent feminist comment (you know, women as soldiers and all that) is lost in the muddle.
So many twists and turns that any intended message about women in the army gets lost in the muddle.

Bedlining interior
So I know there are a lot of threads on here about this but I don't guess one more would hurt. So here are my questions...
1: how much does it cost to bedline the interior of my TJ?
2: how would I go about doing it right?
3: what is the best bedliner to use?
I'm going to go with the u-pol raptor liner kit. For around $100 you get 4 bottles of bedliner, hardener and a spray gun. You'll need to scuff up the interior and have a air compressor to handle the load.
another option is the Bedrug brand "bedtred" It replaces the carpet and looks like bedliner without being permanent.
I went with Rustoleum and rolled it on. Do not bother with the applicator kit, its garbage. You can get a gallon can at Walmart or Amazon for $60. Get some fine grit sanding sponges and a foam roller kit. I haven't ever painted anything in my life and I was surprised at how easy it as to do.
My TJ already had the spray liner applied when I bought it. I think it was Rhino brand spray liner. One note of caution on the spray liner: your Jeep will be a lot noisier. My TJ is not my daily driver so I don't mind it for wheeling, but I don't think I would do it for a DD. I use the Bedrug in my F150 bed (with a Leer top) and it was a great investment.
So what brand should I get that works the best that I can just go pick up today or tomorrow? I was thinking about doing it tomorrow since I have a day off.
Just my $.02, I would avoid Rustoleum , Duplicolor, and even Herculiner for bedlining the tub. The first 2 listed will not last and Herculiner is too rough for bare skin and no UV protection. For DIY spray application, I like the U-Pol Raptor and for roll on, I am very pleased with going with Mostaliner. It not too rough, comes in various colors, and durable. Unfortunately, local stores don't carry it, only online through manufacturer or eBay.
I would recommend raptor liner as well. I bought mine off ebay for around $120. I have never sprayed anything before that wasn't in a can and it turned out amazing. Its been well over a year and it still looks as good as the day I sprayed it. Just do a real good prep job and make sure its super clean before you spray it and it wont flake or peel up like a lot of people have happen.

I've been drinking this the past few evenings as a dessert type tea after dinner.
Although I don't normally add sugar to hot tea, I did add a small spoon of brown sugar to the pot and then some cream to the cup once brewed. Very tasty, and the sugar did seem to make the spices sweeter and more flavorful.
I will have to say though, that this batch of tea I bought has a lot more little bits and pieces in it than the last I had – the last bag purchased was only leaves and a few of those candy pumpkins – this has so much more 'stuff' and the squash especially is quite fragrant in it.

RC/Xcelerator-RC components
Has anyone installed this fuel management systems.It is a closed loop system that is suppose to be plug and play. Thoughts opinions Thanks in advance.
Never even ran across anyone using this let alone ever hearing about it. Why would u choose this over a Power Visions or Sert?
I had it for about 7 months and it just died and screwed up my throttle by wire which had to be replaced (under warranty). It worked great until then but I took it off and will not be using it again.
did you go with a different tuner then.
Not yet and too be honest Im thinking of going with screaming eagle race tuner. I saw 3 bikes in dealer with tuner issues- one with power vision costs the guy 800 to fix.
1 Attachment(s)
I've got one on My 2012 FLTRX and love it. Went from a PCV to it. Don't have to do dyno-tune and can feel the power difference. No complaints here.
I had two on mine and they both went bad as well. RC will not even replace them now because of all the problems it had. When it worked I loved it but after the second time of replacing it I was done with it. I have since went with a dobek tuner but havent decided yet how well I like it.
I ran one in my '13 Ultra only because I didnt want to have it mapped every time I changed an air cleaner or muffler. Problem one: If I pulled into a gas station, run in, get stuff, run out, jump on, start & GO, what happens is since it didn't 'map' the RPM's go up to 2600-2700 & STAY there. So I'm on a 30mph street not so bad but come to a light, you gotta find neutral quick at the stop, wait 15-20 secs & the R's come down to the 950rpm.
Now the 2nd problem almost killed me 4 times. Three times from either merging on to a highway, CRACK the throttle open to change lane & the motor dies to a 400RPM and there is NO throttle response. The cure is pull the left cover off after you shut it while parked. Pull the orange fuse out. Wait 5 minutes. Put back in & it resets the ECM. Almost clocked a car head on when going to pass. Merged, almost ran over by tractor trailer coming up my rear when it died to 400rpm. The last time the bike had a chance to kill me was June 6th when a deer jumped out in front doing 60. Went to brace holding on & crack the throttle to drive through it & it died again just at impact. Didnt lay the bike down nor injured but 17,868 damage to the bike so totaled.
Just bought a new '15 CVO RG so I'm hesitant to put THIS one on & kind of scared to try a new one.

Increasing stevia acreage by over 135%
Ian Gilson, CFA
On April 23, 2012 S&W Seed Company (SANW) announced it had leased 156 acres near Los Banos, CA and will dedicate all of these acres to stevia production. This is not far from the 114 acres in Chowchilla, CA where the first crop was planted.
Stevia seeds have a very low germination rate in India, China and many other parts of the world. S&W Seed has been able to increase this substantially and now has enough of the higher stevia yielding plants from the Chowchilla crop to fully utilize the additional acres.
The land has been leased for four years and has been tilled and irrigated and is ready for planting. These plants may be stronger and be more vigorous than the first crop. They may also produce even higher levels of stevia compounds.
Stevia demand in the US is amongst the highest in the world. It is now possible to buy fruit flavored drinks that are sweetened with stevia. A stable and dependable source of stevia leaf in the US is important to the producers of the steviol glycosides. The extraction of the glycosides is not much more difficult than making a cup of tea and is not capital intensive.

The £10 offer applies to La Bohème at Soho Theatre, while tickets to English National Opera's Lucrezia Borgia will be available from £25 during the Society of London Theatre event.
More than 50 shows will be offering reduced-rate tickets in the first weeks of the new year, including Wicked; the West End transfer of the Royal Court's Clybourne Park; an extended run of Oscar Wilde's An Ideal Husband with Samantha Bond and Rachael Stirling, and new productions such as Million Dollar Quartet.
A look behind the scenes is also offered on many shows. The team behind The 39 Steps will reveal how they stage a chase on the Flying Scotsman, while fans of We Will Rock You can join a singing workshop with the cast.
Mayor Boris Johnson said: "Get into London Theatre is a fabulous opportunity to discover why our theatre industry is the envy of the world."
Rachael Stirling said: "We have an exceptional standard of theatre in London and it's a source of national pride. But it's not unfair to say that a night in the West End is sometimes prohibitively expensive, especially in these dour times."
Heading for the Vaudeville Theatre as other workers are going home is "a different kind of nine-to-five, a whole world that exists largely between 6pm and 11pm", she added. "I feel like I'm walking on air. It's my witching hour."

Brain Surgeon
|Get the "Head Hunter" award in 10 matches.
Set up a multiplayer match of Deathmatch with max novice bots. Put on the mutator "Weapon Replacement" and edit it and set all the guns to Sniper Rifles. Set the kill limit to 20 and the map to Rising Sun. Then just kill the bots 20 times with a headshot. Do this 9 more times for the achievement. Note: You get the award when you get 15 kills but I suggest you do it to 20 kills so you can get "Paint the town red" and other achievements quicker. Also you can't get these in Instant Action, so remember that!
Alternately, you can use the Morbias map against one Novice bot with SloMo and Weapon Replacement mutators turned on and force respawn set to "Yes". If you stand near the middle, the bot will often spawn down the same tunnel for most of the match and you can easily get 20 kills in less than five minutes. The SloMo makes it easier to hit the headshot if he insists on moving.
This video explains how to setup the match and use the Weapon Replacement mutator. Do this for every other achievement, choosing whatever weapon you need for the achievement.

Oregon Historical County Records Guide
Wallowa County Records Inventory
Federal Land Grant Records
Series records ownership of county lands obtained from the federal government. Series includes records of land grants administered under a variety of federal programs such as donation land claims and homesteads. Donation land claims are the most common type of federal land grant in Oregon that is documented in this inventory project. Donation land claims resulted from an act of the 1850 Congress under which citizens of the United States, or those who filed a declaration of intention prior to December 1, 1850 and had resided upon or cultivated the land for four consecutive years, were granted a specified amount of acreage in the Oregon Territory. Donation land claims were unique in that acreage granted to married couples was divided evenly. Half of the acreage was placed in the husband's name while the other half was placed in the wife's name. Records include plats, indexes, and survey notes. Information includes township, range, and section numbers, names of donation land claim holders and claim numbers, claim dates, acreage, and descriptions of surveys.
Under the Homestead Act of 1862, settlers were given 160 acres of land in the public domain if they built a home on the land, resided there for five years, and cultivated the land. A complete homestead entry file includes such documents as the homestead application, homestead proof, and final certificate authorizing the claimant to obtain a land patent.

Amanda Seyfried's Bristol Farms Run
Posted Saturday February 2, 2013 4:13 PM GMT
Stepping out to grab some supplies for the weekend, Amanda Seyfried made a stop at a Beverly Hills Bristol Farms on Friday (February 1).
Keeping a low profile in a printed shirt and black hoodie, the "Lovelace" beauty showed off her charitable side as she donated to an anti-drug booth set up outside the market.
The 27-year-old actress recently completed work on the film "The Big Wedding," co-starring Robert De Niro, Katherine Heigl, and Diane Keaton.
Slated for release on April 26, the comedy follows a long-divorced couple who fake being married as the family gathers for a wedding.
Enjoy the pictures of Amanda Seyfried shopping at Bristol Farms in Beverly Hills, CA (February 1).

Castle Geyser
Castle Geyser has the largest cone and may be the oldest of all geysers in the basin. Its eruption pattern has changed considerably throughout its recorded history. Castle is currently erupting about every 10 - 12 hours. A water eruption frequently reaches 90 feet (27m) and lasts about 20 minutes. The water phase is followed by a noisy steam phase lasting 30 - 40 minutes.

Sandy has left devastation in its wake but City analysts think insurers could avoid much of the turbulence. Estimates are that total economic losses should be between $10 billion (£6.2 billion) and $20 billion.
Oriel Securities put this into context: 2011's Hurricane Irene created industry losses of between $6 billion and 7 billion and economic losses of $15 billion.
Oriel's Marcus Barnard and Hari Sivakumaran reckon that yesterday's "2% sell-off in the insurance sector looked slightly overdone" and "the expected insured losses from Sandy look relatively containable".
Early estimates from Eqecat and Kinetic Analysis put industry-insured losses at between $5 billion and $10 billion for Sandy. And Barnard and Sivakumaran think the industry will be able to absorb these losses, "even if this initial estimate proves to be too low, and is revised upwards."
They retain their Buy recommendation for insurer Catlin and an Add for Hiscox. The two mid-cap index insurers recovered some of yesterday's falls. Catlin managed a 2.5p rise to 467.5p but Hiscox was still in negative territory, down 1p to 475.7p
Sandy might not wreak as much damage on insurers as some feared but London's trading floors were deathly quiet with volumes down because of New York's closure. Wall Street is shut for a second day — the first time a weather-related event has closed it for two consecutive days since 1888.
Mike van Dulken, head of research at Accendo Markets, said: "The UK flagship index continues to hover around the 5800 level, although with an absence of participation from the US, support may be a function of caution and low volumes rather than outright bullishness." But the US storms were not the only concern for London. Continued uncertainty on the eurozone and global growth kept investors cautious as bank reporting season begins.
The benchmark index managed to lift 41.49 points to 5836.59.
Egyptian gold-miner Centamin had its own storm today as a court ruling in the north African country was followed by its temporarily suspending its shares at 10am. Perhaps a little late — shares had already crashed more than 35%. A judge ruled Centamin's contract to explore the Sukari gold mine in Egypt was void and a decision by the authorities to offer a 30-year contract and let it be renewed was also void. The mine in question had only yesterday hosted an analyst meeting. Centamin shares were down 35p to 64p.
Over on AIM, shares in Skywest Airlines took off. The Australian and South-East Asian regional airline had an offer from Virgin Australia to buy its entire issued share capital as part of Virgin's plan to compete with rival Qantas. Skywest shares soared 8p to 26.62p.
Surgical Innovations
Shares in Surgical Innovations are good for your wealth, Seymour Pierce suggests. The broker is won over by the fact that the engineer has shipped its first batch of PretzelFlex abdominal instruments to America as part of an eight-year distribution deal. Shares are at present about 7p a pop but Seymour reckons they should double to 14p.
Dump CPP's shares, Peel Hunt urges. The broker says trading at the card-protection firm is "in line", but adds the next financial year will suffer the impact of "lower renewals and the customer redress process getting underway". Shares are at 9p but the broker places them under review.
Hang onto shares in Laird, Investec recommends. The broker takes the view that although the technology business "is having a better second half… the new chief executive has much to do", and adds that the firm "must learn from previous problems". It gives a target price for shares of 220p which is where they stand at present.

Documentation Guidelines
It is the college's policy to provide, on an individual basis, academic adjustments to students with disabilities that may affect their ability to fully participate in program or course activities or to meet course requirements. The Access and Equity staff members are available to work with students with physical, learning, psychological, or other disabilities to help them better understand the nature of their disability, to develop self-advocacy skills, and to determine appropriate access plans.
To receive academic adjustments, students must identify the disability, provide adequate documentation of the disability by a qualified professional, and work with the Access and Equity personnel and classroom faculty to develop an appropriate access plan. All information provided concerning a disability is confidential and is released only as allowed by law or with consent.
In order to evaluate requests, appropriate documentation must be provided directly to the Coordinator of Access and Equity Services. Documentation should not be sent to any other office within the college. These guidelines are intended to identify the minimum documentation criteria for consideration of a disability-related academic adjustment request.
Documentation serves as the basis for providing academic adjustments and auxiliary aids and services under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. The documentation must both identify a physical or mental impairment, which substantially affects a life function, and supply information identifying current functional limitations that require academic adjustments in order to assure equal access to the college's programs and services.
The documentation must be prepared by a person, not a family member of the student, qualified by professional training and practice to diagnose and treat the impairment leading to the disability and typed or word processed onto letterhead of the practitioner or agency employing the practitioner. Handwritten notes on prescription pads may be subject to authentication. In all cases, the student's personal accounts concerning his or her functional limitations will be considered as part of the documentation review.
As appropriate to the disability, documentation should include:
Disability documentation is considered confidential information and does not become part of a student's permanent educational record. In accordance with federal and state law, the college shall maintain confidentiality of student records. All documentation and records will be maintained in the Office of Access and Equity Services and may include electronic records.
Documentation and questions should be addressed to:

Cycling ace Sir Bradley Wiggins has apologised for a crude sexual joke he made at a charity dinner for victims of child abuse.
The Tour de France winner stunned guests at the Barnado's fundraiser in Harrogate with his outburst, which occurred just moments after a sex abuse victim had told her harrowing story on stage.
Wiggins, who had donated a signed shirt for the auction, approached compere Jon Hammond and said "You've got a posh voice. I like posh voices. S*** me off."
The embarrassing moment was broadcast to the entire room via a large screen at the £300-a-head dinner.
Despite the blunder, the Olympic gold medallist's shirt still fetched £5000 in the auction six weeks ago.
Businessman David Parkin told the Daily Star: "Initially there was just stunned silence. It was bizarre and shocking.
"The chap sitting next to me said: 'Before tonight he was my hero, but not any more.
"It was completely the wrong time and place to say something like that. People were completely disgusted by him."
Wiggins' spokesman said: "There had been some friendly banter beforehand and Bradley was caught unawares by the auctioneer. We'd like to apologise to anyone who was offended by his language."

Judy shares the stories that resulted in her powerful ascent, with an emphasis on what drives women in today's workplace. Serving up career tips and advice from the basics — how to get what you want out of a job, how to get a raise, how to get a promotion — to more complex issues like workplace rivalry, conflict resolution and why women lead differently than men.

Mr Karl Siegwart Andreas Olsen
Mr Karl Siegwart Andreas Olsen, 42 (?50), was born on 28 January 1870 in Trondheim, Norway. After moving to the United States in 1894 he changed his name to Charles.
After his wife's death in 1906, he took his young son Artur Karl Olsen back to Trondheim, Norway to live with the boy's grandmother. He remarried to Ester (a native of Sweden) and the couple lived at 987 Hart St. Brooklyn, New York. When Artur's grandmother died Karl returned to Norway to bring his son back to America. The two were returning to New York and were accompanied by their friend Fridtjof Madsen.
They boarded the Titanic at Southampton as third class passengers.
After the collision Karl Siegwart carried his almost sleeping son to lifeboat 13 and said to him that he should be a good boy, and that he would soon come back to him. The last Artur saw of his father was when he was standing looking on while the boat was lowered. Karl's body was never found.

The Translation Studies Reader

I'm mad because this edition of the TSR took out Ortega y Gasset's important essay "The Misery and Splendor of Translation." Other than that, though, very thorough.

Target: Richard Colbeck, Australian Secretary of Agriculture
Goal: Stop the Australian government from de-listing a world heritage site in Australia for the purpose of logging
The federal government of Australia is currently taking steps to remove a world heritage listing from 170,000 hectares of pristine forests in Tasmania. The coalition has stated that the listing is preventing logging and costing Tasmanians jobs. This ill-advised move on the part of the Australian government is highlighted by the fact that conservationists and timber industry representatives alike oppose the move. They say that if the de-listing moves through it will threaten a hard-won compromise that was reached after decades of disputes between environmentalists and loggers over the fate of Tasmania's forests.
The de-listing of a world heritage site is a rare occurrence, having only happened twice before. What makes this proposed de-listing even more unusual is that the request has come from the government of Australia itself. Glenn Walker, of the Wilderness Society, said of the deal, "We don't know of any timber industry players interested in extracting wood from a heritage area because they know the future is sustainable, conflict-free timber. Tearing up this peace deal is a fundamentally irresponsible move by the government."
If the Australian government successfully removes the world heritage status from these forests in Tasmania, it could re-open a decades long conflict between environmentalists and loggers. Some of the most pristine forests in the world are being put at risk in hopes that a few more logging jobs might be created. The government coalition behind this plan should listen to the conservationists and loggers who all agree that the de-listing should not be carried out.
Dear Secretary Richard Colbeck:
The move to de-list the world heritage site in Tasmania recently carried out by your coalition in the Australian government is irresponsible. You are sacrificing the fate of a treasured wilderness area for the possibility of creating a few more logging jobs. Even the logging companies themselves are against the de-listing. They understand that if logging is to have a future in Tasmania it must be done sustainably. They agree with conservationists that your proposal to remove world heritage status from this area is a step in the wrong direction, and will only reopen old wounds.
Please reconsider the actions of your coalition. Australia is lucky enough to have a world heritage site in the forests of Tasmania. It should be preserved for future generations to appreciate. Removing its protected status in order so that its pristine forests may be squandered is unconscionable.

Citrus County
Lake Tsala Apopka is 19,111 acres of shallow, heavily vegetated marshes intermingled with open water pools. Water control structures separate the lake into three main pools named after nearby towns: Floral City, Inverness and Hernando.
Public boat ramps are available 1/4 mile east of the intersection of U.S. Highway 41 and S.R. 200 (Hernando Pool); 1-1/4 mile east of City of Inverness on S.R. 470 (Inverness Pool); and on Duval Island Road off C.R. 48, one mile east of U.S. Highway 41 (Floral City Pool).
Local Contacts: River Land Bait and Tackle (352-465-2755) for more up-to-date information.
TrophyCatch is FWC's citizen-science program that rewards anglers for documenting and releasing trophy bass 8 pounds or larger. The following TrophyCatch bass have been submitted from the Tsala Apopka Chain:
Lunker Club (8 – 9.9 pounds): 20
Trophy Club (10 – 12.9 pounds): 8
Largemouth bass are disbursed throughout the pools. Several trophy sized bass have been tagged and released in these pools and are ready to be caught. Flip soft plastic lures into holes in vegetation or fish a live Golden Shiner around cover to entice bass to strike. It's hard to say if one lake in the chain will be better than others. Interested anglers should seek information from local tackle shops, internet message boards, or other anglers to narrow down their choices and target their effort. Stumpknocker, shell cracker, and bluegill fishing should be steady in shallow water close to the bank using crickets, grass shrimp, or other natural baits. Panfish concentrate to spawn in water depths that range anywhere from one to ten feet, but are usually found at the shallower end of this range. Bluegill seem to opt for slightly shallower areas, but it's not unusual to see redear and bluegill intermingle, using the same bedding areas at the same time. Catfish can be targeted near bridges and rip-rap by using cut baits or stink baits fished on the bottom. Black Crappie (speckled perch) can be caught in deeper water by trolling live minnows and panfish jigs.
FWC Facts:Gulf sturgeon are considered anadromous, from the Greek, meaning fishes that travel back and forth between fresh and salt water.
