water expansion tank too close to exhaust?
2 Attachment(s)
I replaced my water heater a couple of weeks ago and noticed the cold water side was leaking a bit still. So I loosened the union and tightened the offending connection. Unfortunately, this moved the water expansion tank very close to the exhaust vent and am curious if it's considered too close? If it was simple,I'd just readjust it,but I'll have to re solder the T connection which will be annoying to say the least but doable. Here are some pics.
Attachment 65296
Attachment 65297
I doubt there is a concern. After the heater has operated for a few minutes touch the pipe to test for temperature. Lick your finger like Grandma did testing the sad iron and if it sizzles then that might be too close. For a more accurate indication place a thermometer between the two or shoot it with an infrared temp. gun.
i would be more concerned if the expansion tank is supported by more than fitting
1 Attachment(s)
Two wrenches wouldn't work with how it was originally sweated. Everything is soldered as one piece from the water heater to the union.
Attachment 65324
You are missing the Dielectric union where the copper pipe enters the tank---
Add them now---not having them shortens the life of the tank----
now most water heaters all ready have a dielectric nipple due to unions not working as well as first thought
Very poor looking solder joints. You may want to re-do this project when you are not in such a hurry.
why didn't you just sweat the expansion tank fitting a little bit going away from exhaust. if you look in the last pic you have plenty of room going left a little. .
No problem with the expansion tank where it is.
I would add a strap or tether to the expansion tank so it is supported by more than its T connection to the pipe. There are some conditions that are nto common but if they occur they cannot be seen (are not visible) that could result in the tank filling with water and then it is heavy enough to put strain on the T that could crack the solder and cause a leak.
Dissimilar metals equals electrolisis. Look it up. Correct it, and grant ye heater o2 plus h a lengthier life. Be careful screwing in that inlet as there is a plastic dip tube in that fitting. Unless it is a reverse flow model. yall

What to Catch
Texas Parks and Wildlife stocks fish big enough to catch and keep except in August. Stocking takes place every two to four weeks during summer and winter seasons. There should be a good supply of fish whenever you find time to visit!
Catfish prefer strong-smelling baits. Try using nightcrawlers, chicken livers, shrimp, stinkbait, or cut hot dogs.
When to Catch
Catfish are stocked in most lakes late April through early November. Fish are not stocked in August because of heat-related water quality problems.
Rainbow Trout
Cheese, kernel corn, nightcrawlers, red wigglers, and meal worms make good trout baits. If you'd rather use a lure, try a small inline spinnerbait or a spoon.
When to Catch
Rainbow trout prefer cold water and they survive only during winter in most parts of Texas. Trout stocking begins in late November or early December and continues until March.

John Cena Grants Record Number of Wishes
I'm sure you have heard of the Make A Wish Foundation before, they have been granting wishes to children with life threatening illnesses since 1980. Every 38 minutes a wish is granted and one superstar has set the bar high, granting a record number of total wishes.
WWE star John Cena has granted a total of 300 wishes and he says "We're just getting started." How cool is that?! He recently hit the milestone when he granted a wish for 7 year old Johnny Littman of Pennsylvania. Johnny suffers from severe congenital malformation and spina bifida.
In Johnny's eyes Cena is a hero, and he got the chance to not only chat with the WWE superstar, but also got photos taken. Cena autographed clothing and other WWE merchandise for the boy and gifted him a video game system.
Cena isn't the only celebrity who has granted large numbers of wishes, Michael Jordan is just behind him with 200, and Kobe Bryant has granted around 100 wishes.
It's one thing when celebrities back charities and foundations with their endorsements and pocketbooks, but it's another when they take the time to actually do something.
Let's hope these wishes never stop being granted.

This summer's multiplex offerings might have you thinking that Hollywood will green-light anything. But for every board-game-based adventure or kill-your-boss comedy that makes it to the big screen, there are dozens of flicks that don't. Some get shot, then shelved (see Terry Gilliam's The Man Who Killed Don Quixote); most don't even get written (Sly Stallone's Cliffhanger sequel, The Dam). Here are five films we would have paid to see—and the reasons we may never get the chance.
The Nightmare of Edgar Allan Poe
Spawning endless punny "Thriller" headlines, producer Gary Pudney cast Michael Jackson in the title role for this chronicle of Poe's last days. In preparation, Jackson began taking acting lessons from his pal Marlon Brando.
DEMISE: Even under layers of makeup, it would still be Jacko playing Al-Po, which might have tested the bounds of credulity—and the Gloved One's range. But they got so close: Pudney announced MJ would move to Montreal to film in 2000. Alas, talk about the project died down, and this nightmare disappeared forevermore.
At the Mountains of Madness
Hellboy-helmer Guillermo del Toro was slated to adapt H. P. Lovecraft's alien tale and had lured James Cameron to produce and Tom Cruise to star. But marquee billing would have gone to the Shoggoths: shape-shifting monsters that change form like socks being pulled inside out.
DEMISE: Universal killed the film in March after del Toro refused to budge on a solid R rating—the studio wasn't going to risk $150 million on a film the kiddies couldn't see. Madness was a one-two punch for the director, who'd spent years developing The Hobbit, only to abandon it.
Genghis Khan
Starring Steven Seagal … Actually, we could just stop there. While we don't recall learning about Khan's awesomely tiny ponytail, Seagal isn't the strangest casting: John Wayne played Khan in The Conqueror.
DEMISE: Announced in 1998, the project stalled when Seagal quit acting in 2001—allegedly for fear that unless he shed his previous associations, he wouldn't be reincarnated as a lama. After he returned to acting, his production partner, suspected mob affiliate Julius Nasso, tried to shake him down for $150,000 a film. Nasso got 10 months in prison instead.
Rendezvous With Rama
David Fincher's first space mission was less than stellar: The studio reedited his Alien 3 into a hideous beast. Arthur C. Clarke's 1973 novel, starring a 30-mile-long spaceship, promised redemption. Morgan Freeman bought the rights and tapped Fincher to direct. A Fincher-Clarke combo had fanboys drooling like, well, something out of Alien 3.
DEMISE: The Rama team couldn't summon the money or tech to fulfill its vision, leaving this craft idling on the launch pad. (Studio execs now claim it will take off.) Freeman's injury in a 2008 car crash couldn't have helped either.
Beetlejuice Goes Hawaiian
In this proposed sequel to Tim Burton's 1988 hit, Lydia (Winona Ryder) again summons Beetlejuice (Michael Keaton), this time to stop a hotel from being built on an ancient Hawaiian burial ground. The flick would have featured the frizzy-haired hell-dweller transforming into a huge monster called "Juicifer." DEMISE: Burton was distracted by Batman Returns, and Ryder and Keaton were on board only if Burton was steering. After several rewrite attempts—Kevin Smith declined an offer to try—the film was buried. If only repeating a name three times could change that …

Koh Jing Yu is one busy iPhone developer. He has three apps in the app store, does contract work for companies overseas, and is in the middle of a 30-days, 30-apps project where he develops an app a day and shares the source code to help other developers learn about iPhone programming. Not bad for a 14-year-old who picked up iPhone development just four months ago.
This Secondary Two student of Dunman High School was introduced to sofware development after learning Flash at the school's Infocomms Club. From Flash, he moved on to the iPhone.
Said Jing Yu: "I started programming iPhone games because of the great hardware available, accelerometer, microphone, multitouch, etc, and I love how the games available on the App Store made use of them. I was inspired to make my own, and started during the June holidays.
"I learnt a lot from "Beginning iPhone Development" published by Apress, and written by Dave Mark and Jeff LaMarche. I also learnt a lot from iCodeBlog, and online video tutorials."
From left to right: Jing Yu's father, Dr Koh Hock Kiat, Jing Yu, his younger brother Jing Xuan and mother Ong Geok Chwee on holiday in Australia.
His first app was a game called Bacteria Bash, which he struggled with because there were a lot of bugs and crashes. He overcame them by reading online guides, googling about them, and getting help from people at the iPhoneDevSDK Forum.
Thanks to that experience, he had an easier time with his next effort. "My second app, Cheese Collect, had better organized code, and I also learnt a lot of new things to use. I also learnt about debugging code, a very long process, but it's worth it."
What's remarkable is that Jing Yu does not outsource anything. His apps have a unique graphics style that he is entirely responsible for. "Code, graphics, music, sound effect, I do everything myself. I use Adobe Flash and Adobe Photoshop for it, and it's really easy to do, especially if you know your way around."
He has not earned enough to buy a Ferrari yet, nor, it must be said, would he be allowed to drive one for a few years, but he's quite happy with the response to his apps. "Most reactions have been positive, and I've gotten quite good reviews from the iTunes Store, as well as positive feedback from the TouchArcade thread. I'm earning quite some money from Cheese Collect. It was featured by Apple a while back in 'New and Noteworthy' a while back, and sales rocketed."
Thanks to these apps, he is now doing some contract work for people in France, the UK and the US too. But, as with all good developers, it's not just about the money, which is why he embarked on his 30-days, 30-apps project.
"'30 Days Of iPhone Programming' is mostly to help others get used to the language, Objective-C. It includes a lot of things I struggled with when I just started and things I wished I knew when I started. I hope to help others with my source code. I also love programming, so it's sort of fun to build 30 apps and help others."
It will come as no surprise that his parents have been behind him all the way (his father is a professor at the Nanyang Technological University while his mother is a director at SingTel.) "My parents have been great, and really supportive," he said. "They support me when I ask for books as resources, and even ask if I have any classes I want to attend during the upcoming December school holidays."
"I am amazed by how Jing Yu taught himself to develop applications and his passion in creating his own applications," said Ong Geok Chwee, who is the proud mother of Jing Yu, and who is also the Director of Business Development and Segment Marketing at SingTel. "Developing and publishing his own application is like operating a small business where he starts thinking about marketing and creating awareness of his applications.
"I truly understand the meaning of "The World is Flat" through seeing how developers and publishers from France, UK and US engaging him to do project work via email correspondence. It is amazing!"
World domination will have to wait though as Jing Yu still has a few years to go before he is done with school. He hopes to study at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and wants to go into software development as a career.

Craftsman Mowermodel #917374544
Questions & Answers about this model powered by
Craftsman 917.374544 lawn mower
I have been reading this conversation (http://www.managemylife.com/mmh/questions/301656-installation-part-434993-cable-craftsman-917374544-mower) with great interest. I also have the Craftsman 917.374544 Mower. The red drive control handle snapped off while I was cutting grass. The mower is still under warranty and I was sent the entire drive control unit long with the attached drive control wire with the fittings that attach to the drive motor/belt. Based on the above existing conversation and especially the photos, it looks like I could just replace the red plastic handle within the drive control unit instead of installing the entire unit. I have no problem replacing the drive unit itself, but what concerns me is the wire that is attached to the actual drive motor and/or belt. Could I just replace the red lever itself if I open up both drive units? I am quite familiar with installing garbage disposals and doing plumbing, but messing with the drive motor of a lawn mower concerns me!

Warren Announces 2012 Women's Soccer Slate
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - The Green Bay women's soccer team will host nine contests at Aldo Santaga Stadium and compete in two tournaments this fall, highlighting the 2012 schedule released on Wednesday by head coach Trevor Warren.
The Phoenix schedule will get underway at home when the team welcomes South Dakota State to Santaga Stadium on Friday, Aug. 17 at 7 p.m.
The two non-conference tournaments follow the opener, with Green Bay first heading to Fort Myers, Fla., on Aug. 24-26 for the Florida Gulf Coast Tournament, where the team will play two defending conference champions. The Phoenix will play the host Eagles, the Atlantic Sun Conference Champions, on Friday at 7 p.m. before facing Florida International on Sunday at 9 a.m. FIU claimed the Sun Belt Conference title in 2011.
"Both games will be a stiff test for our young team on the road but they will certainly be a barometer of where we are as a team and make us stronger down the road," said Warren.
On the following weekend, Green Bay plays two non-conference games at the SIU Edwardsville Tournament. The Phoenix will face Northern Iowa at 5 p.m. on Aug. 31 before taking on UM-Kansas City on Sept. 2 at 12 p.m.
A season-long three-game homestand follows as the Phoenix hosts Michigan Tech (Sept. 7), South Dakota (Sept. 9) and Wisconsin (Sept. 14). When Green Bay welcomes Wisconsin from the Big Ten Conference, the team will look to avenge a close 1-0 loss in last year's clash with the in-state rival.
The last three games in the series with Wisconsin have resulted in close 1-0 losses for the Phoenix, and the Badgers will be visiting Green Bay for the first time since 2005.
"It's always fun to play the Badgers with having so many Wisconsin players on our roster," said Warren. "It is certainly a game that our team will look forward to."
A trip to Illinois State (Sept. 19) precedes the Horizon League opener when Green Bay hosts Detroit on Sept. 22 at 12 p.m. The Titans finished in second place in the conference a season ago.
The Phoenix will then travel to Wright State (Sept. 28) before concluding non-conference play at home against Indiana State on Sept. 30 at 12 p.m. The contest against the Sycamores will also serve as alumni weekend for the program.
The entire slate in October is filled with Horizon League games, with the Phoenix starting the month on the road at Cleveland State (Oct. 3). Green Bay hosts Youngstown State on Oct. 6 before taking 13 days off and welcoming defending Horizon League champion Milwaukee on Friday, Oct. 19 at 7 p.m.
The 2012 regular season concludes with a trip to Loyola followed by senior day on Saturday, Oct. 27 when Valparaiso comes to Santaga Stadium at 1 p.m.

High tensile and flexural strength, with a specific strength exceeding that of steel. Stronger than steel on a kg-for-kg basis.
Pultrusions are approximately ¼ the weight of steel and 70% that of aluminium.
Pultrusions are highly resistant to chemical attack, corrosive elements, and cannot rust, making them ideal for marine applications, chemical plants and other environments where steel is unsuitable. Design engineers working in corrosive environments choose GFRP pultrusions (www.mateenbar.com) to extend the lifespan of concrete infrastructure.
Pultrusions are electrically non-conductive.
Low thermal conductivity of GFRP pultrusions provide good insulation properties for concrete structures. This is ideal in environmentally friendly homes and structures designed for low environmental impact and energy efficiency. Pultrusions also exhibit excellent mechanical properties at extremely low temperatures.
Pultrusion are transparent to radio waves, microwaves and other electromagnetic frequencies.
Non-magnetic reinforcement is essential for areas close to magnetic apparatus - such as hospital MRI rooms, compass calibration areas and certain high-voltage applications. Steel reinforcement is unsuitable because the magnetic properties interfere with sensitive equipment.
Coefficient of thermal expansion of pultrusions is less than steel and aluminium.
Pultrusions can be manufactured to extreme tolerances.
Pultron's high-performance composite solutions provide high tensile strength, price-performance advantages, and enhanced durability versus traditional materials.
Mateenbar™ is Pultron's proprietary high-performance GFRP reinforcement rod for concrete structures. Mateenbar™ is an alternative to steel reinforcement offering distinct advantages: corrosion resistance; non-conductive & non-electromagnetic; low thermal conductivity; non-magnetic; ease of cutting; lightweight; and low environmental impact.

It's a process to keep the website 'cleaned up'. Doug posted this sticky for a reason, the SVT performance forum is the biggest 'misposted' area on the site as you can see with 23 of 50 of the last posts on this area of the forum being in the wrong place, that's almost 50% of incorrect placed posts. It's a BIG issue on here.
Not to be mean, and with all due respect for the work you and WD40 put into these forums, but based on his post in this thread (are you sure you are thinking that you are in the right forum?), the post did fit, although based on his description, it was doing a disservice to myself by posting it in the Owner's Lounge.
You did move it back to where it was, and I appreciate it. But from what I've seen with that process and your post here, it seems like you were thinking things were backwards or something. Why would you reference a thread that you are posting in in the first place? You did something similar in our PMs back and forth.
I think we all welcome the cleaning up of the forums, but moving stuff around that does have a spot in the place it was posted based on the descriptions of that forum/sub-forum makes it prohibitive to gain the proper audience for such posts and deters posting at all in the end.
V/R, my 2 cents :)

Boeing forecast assumes little impact from 787 problems
By Alwyn Scott
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Boeing Co said on Wednesday it was sticking with the troubled lithium-ion battery technology that this month grounded its high-tech 787 Dreamliner, and that the grounding had no significant financial impact on its 2013 forecast.
Boeing said it will speed up production of the new plane as planned, responding to revelations that the battery has had more problems than previously disclosed.
CEO Jim McNerney said it was "business as usual" and that the company also had not advised suppliers to slow down their shipments of pieces of the 787, the most widely outsourced jet in the company's 97-year history.
"Nothing that we have learned has told us that we have made the wrong choice on the battery technology," McNerney said on a conference call with analysts and journalists.
"We feel good about the battery technology and its fit for the airplane. We have just got to get to the root cause of these incidents and we will take a look at the data as it evolves, but there is nothing that we have learned that causes us to question it at this stage."
The probe into the cause of two burnt batteries this month involves hundreds of experts from Boeing and outside the company but is "highly compartmentalized" and "it's not drawing any critical resources from any other growth programs we've got," McNerney added.
"Our plan is to continue production of the 787 and to continue the development of the wide-body airplanes," McNerney said.
The statements came as Boeing posted higher-than-expected profit. Continued...

1. Deployment using CAB files
2. Feature based deployment of a web part
Deployment using CAB files:
In general, we can derive CAB files from Sharepoint webpart class or .Net webpart class. A little vary in these two scenarios.
Deriving CAB file from sharepoint webpart class:
If we derive a CAB file from sharepoint webpart class then do some changes in .dwp file as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<WebPart xmlns="http://schmas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v2">
<Title>WebPart Name</Title>
<Description>CAB based deployment</Description>
<Assembly>AssemblyName, Version=184.108.40.206, Culture=Neutral, PublicKeyToken=<Public Key Token Number></Assembly>
<!-- Specify any default values for any additional base class or custom properties here -->
Save this file as <filename>.dwp
Create a CAB project in Visual Studio and add project output of WebPart project to the CAB project, Manifest.xml will automatically added. Add DWP file and other resources as contents to CAB project.
Deriving CAB file from .NET webpart class:
If we are deriving a CAB file from .NET webpart class then do some changes in file content. Instead of .DWP file create .webpart file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<webPart xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v3">
<type name="NameSpcaeWebPartClass, AssemblyName, Version=188.8.131.52, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=<tokenNumber>" />
<importErrorMessage>Cannot import this webpart.</importErrorMessage>
<property name="Title" type="string">webpart title</property>
<property name="Description" type="string">webpart Description</property>
Create a new file called Manifest.xml:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<WebPartManifest xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v2/Manifest">
<Assembly FileName="WebpartAssemblyName.dll">
<!-- Use the <ClassResource> tag to specify resources like image files or JScript files that your Web Parts use. -->
<!-- Note that you must use relative paths when specifying resource files. -->
<ClassResources />
<SafeControl Namespace="NameSpaceto be added as safecontrol in Sharepoint sites web.config." TypeName="*" />
<DwpFile FileName="WebpartFileName.webpart"/>
Now we can create a CAB project as mentioned above.
Deploying using STSADM command for both Sharepoint webpart class and .Net webpart class:
Goto: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web Server Extensions\12\bin
Then use the following command:
stsadm -o addwppack -filename <SampleWebpartCABFileName.CAB> -globalinstall -url "http://<ServerName:PortNumber>" -force
If you execute the above command in the specified path then webpart will deploy in sharepoint with safecontrol.
2. Feature based deployment of a web part
This time we're talking about how to deploy web parts as a feature. Now, deploying custom web parts the manual way is a bit of a pain - the following things are required for the web part to be used:-
- the assembly containing the compiled web part class to be in the GAC (or site bin with appropriate CAS policy)
- a SafeControls entry in the site web.config to tell SharePoint this control is administrator-approved
- the .webpart (or .dwp) file which contains the web part definition (configuration) to be uploaded to the site's web part gallery
- use VSeWSS to create a feature to deploy the web part - simply hit F5 to deploy to your local server; this also generates a SharePoint solution package (.wsp) which can be deployed to other environments.
- create a feature 'manually' by creating the files (e.g. feature.xml, elements file etc.) by hand
However, use of VSeWSS typically means there is slightly less control over the deployment options, since the tool writes the files for you and not all of the options are exposed for you to modify (I go into more detail on this in Creating lists with VSeWSS). As an example, VSeWSS will deploy web part assemblies to the GAC (with full trust), but some SharePoint admins prefer assemblies to run from private bin folders instead to isolate any harm they might do. Hence, there are some occasions where you might want to use the second option and create the feature yourself. The remainder of this article illustrates this process, using the example of a web part which should be deployed to a bin folder.
Once the webpart has been developed, we need to create the manifest file, specifying the feature details, assembly, SafeControls entry, and webpart definition file (.webpart):-
Then, we need the feature.xml file which points to the elements file and tells the framework there is another file to process (that being the .webpart file):-
The elements.xml file should look something like:-
Finally, a .webpart file should be generated to define the metadata and default property values of the webpart.
I place this in a folder underneath my feature files alongside the .dll file containing the compiled assembly.
Assuming all the files are in the right place, the solution file (.wsp) can be built using makecab.exe. This solution can now be deployed, thus taking care of the manual steps for webpart deployment. Once this process is familiar (and you have existing files to copy for the next time) this process is quite straightforward.
[UPDATE 22 November 2007 : for bin deployments, the .dll should be at the root of the .wsp file - if it is in a subfolder, it will be deployed to a subfolder of the bin directory which we do not want. See this article's comments for more details.]
Note the DeploymentTarget="WebApplication" instruction in the manifest.xml file. This ensures the assembly is deployed to the application bin folder rather than the GAC. Now, most web parts will require additional CAS policy to obtain the permissions to execute - your assembly will now have the default trust level of WSS_Minimal, so any file io, database or web service access will probably fail. I hope to cover the entries for this in a future article.
So the webpart should now be in the Web Part Gallery and ready to be added to a page.
One thing I also want to discuss is the different ways of adding a webpart to a page. These are:-
- adding the webpart to a WebPartZone (possible in a feature by use of AllUsersWebPart element)
- adding the webpart to the HTML markup of a page layout by dragging from SPD

If you're restricted to just the one lens on a camera yet shoot a multitude of subjects, better make it a jack of all trades with as broad a focal range as possible. Now the question is, how to shoehorn that into a camera that will still fit in your pocket?
Panasonic thinks it has the answer in its Lumix DMC-TZ20 (also known as the DMC-ZS10 outside of Europe), which newly tops its 'TZ' range of so-called 'travel zooms'. Previous models have seen its maker heralded as something of a trailblazer for slim(ish) bodied compacts with big zoom power, though in truth Ricoh has been quietly ploughing a similar furrow for a decade now. Nonetheless all three of this camera's predecessors, the TZ10, TZ8 and TZ7 earned themselves recommended awards.
Coming after the TZ10, and adopting a new 15.1 megapixel 'Mos' sensor said to better suppress noise, the 14.1 effective megapixel TZ20 sits just above the equally new TZ18 with which it shares many features. Optical zoom power has also been boosted to 16x, which is also accessible in movie mode, whilst pocket sized proportions are maintained by virtue of the lens being folded within the body when not in use. The reach can be further extended to 21x equivalent via the digital zoom, and, if you don't mind resolution dropping to three megapixels, boosted to an equivalent 33.8x via Panasonic's Extra Optical Zoom option. The lower resolution is because only the central part of the sensor is being used; in effect the camera is making a crop. So though it's an impressive figure to stick on the box, there is a downside.
Whilst the headline 16x zoom sounds good in isolation, it's worth bearing in mind that Fujifilm has had its 15x optical zoom FinePix F300EXR available since last year - to name just one stand-out competitor. The Fuji is both sleeker in design, being just 22.9mm at its 'thickest' point (to the Panasonic TZ20's 33.4mm), and altogether sexier (thanks to a double gloss finish) if you are purely looking for the best compromise of big zoom in a small camera body.
That said, the Panasonic has a couple of advantages over the Fuji, of which probably the most noteworthy is the TZ20's built-in GPS antenna for storing longitude and latitude coordinates in the image file's Exif data. Like the same feature on the ruggedised Lumix DMC-FT3, location info is provided for 203 countries and more than a million landmarks. The other draw over the Fuji is the TZ20's Full HD video, against the F300EXR's 1280x720 pixels clips. This comes with stereo sound via top-mounted microphones, not unheard of on a pocket compact but still fairly unusual, plus the choice of the highly compressed AVCHD or more widely compatible Motion JPEG video formats. HDMI output is also provided by a port hidden under a side flap for connecting it up directly to a flat panel TV.
As with the rest of the recent Lumix models, we also get a dedicated camcorder-like button for instant video recording. Although because flipping between capture mode and playback is controlled by a slider switch, you can't instantly record unless you happen to have the correct capture option physically selected at the time. The shooting mode wheel, meanwhile, houses program, shutter priority, aperture priority and manual modes, for when you want various degrees of manual control. You also get a user customisable setting, no less than three scene mode options plus, plus, for those who just want to point and shoot and let the camera reliably decide which parameters suit which scene or subject, there's the most prominently marked mode here: intelligent Auto. The new mode on the dial that jumps out at you however is 3D mode; a new feature is shares with the equally new FT3 and FX77 snappers.
Like its two siblings, the TZ20 doesn't actually feature twin lenses nor twin sensors, both featured on the Fujifilm Real 3D W3, to achieve its stereoscopic effect. Rather, in 3D mode the camera composites an image using a sequence of up to 20 individual frames. With 3D mode selected, the user simply presses the shutter release as normal and pans with the camera in the direction of the arrow provided on screen – easy enough for any beginner. This prompts a machine gun-like flurry of shot-taking, the camera automatically generating the end result and saving it as an MPO file. As with the 3D Panorama mode on rival Sony Cyber-shot cameras, this file isn't actually viewable (yet) in all its glory unless you own a 3D TV, as the TZ20's back screen remains resolutely two-dimensional.

"So perhaps the major nettle to grasp here is the TZ20's cost, with a high-ish street price of around £350 on launch making it just £50 or so cheaper than a starter digital SLR with kit lens. Moreover, you can pick up other very capable super zooms, like Panasonic's TZ20, for under £200 so, which until the price of this model drops it what we'd be inclined to do. "
I assume you mean TZ10 "like Panasonic's TZ10, for under £200 so" ???
Just wondering how you'd rate the video quality in the HD recording mode?
Can you zoom without losing audio and is the O.I.S effective at keeping a steady video picture?
(My days of lugging a DSLR and seperate video camera around are over. Nowadays I'm in the market for small "do it all" compact device that I'll always have with me. I can accept some trade-offs in image quality and video quality as long as they are not too pronounced.)
Also consider the Canon PowerShot SX220 which is about £70 cheaper in the UK.
Take a brilliant camera - the TZ7 - change the superb sensor for an inferior one and increase the price to get the TZ10. Then take that one, put what looks like an even worse sensor in it, change the awesome lens for something that looks like it's been recycled from a beer bottle and **then** have the cheek to charge even more.
What are you doing Panasonic !!!!
Like Maxik, I am left wondering how the camera's video features stack up.
I've always bought separate Video Camera's, but with the increasing convergence of still & video technology, it'd be useful if TR could cover this off in their reviews.
Similarly, with multi-functional/all-in-one printers, there's usually very little coverage of features beyond basic printing (and then only with default driver settings).
Theese are not a criticisms, just suggestions that might bring increased readership through some value-add to the template-like review format TR have adopted. Formats are good - but they do need to evolve over time.
I've had a TZ 3,5,6, and currently 7 so am fairly well equipped to answer the above questions ;)
I think the video is excellent, zoom is active and sound records while zooming, something you don't find on most zoom compacts. The zoom itself is quiet enough that it doesn't detract from video. I bought the TZ7 over the TZ10 and never regretted it, much cheaper, image quality identical, 12x zoom is plenty for most situations, and I have spare batteries :)
An example of the video http://www.youtube.com/watc... which I took at 6-12x zoom, unstabilised, in the barbican theatre in show lighting, at a significant distance. This isn't even at max quality. Considering I was 25m+ from the musicians, I think the sound comes out fantastically! Also there are stereo mics which you again don't get from all that many compacts.
Battery life is excellent, 300 odd photos per charge although the big zoom kills power if you keep zooming in and out. Rapid autofocus, good on moving objects, decent indoors compared to most equivalent cameras. I'm not a pro by any means but most of the time you get sharp, well coloured, balanced photos. There isn't that much by way of tinkering with settings possible but that can be a pro for some people.
All told, TZ7 is a fantastic piece of kit, cheap to boot. Buy one as a pocketable second camera or a main camera for casual users and you will be a happy bunny :)
I'm dissapointed with the 20. I've owned the 5, 7, and 10(No I don't collect them! The 5 got smashed by Delta airlines, and the 10 got nicked!), and I assumed that the 20 would be a good step forward.
It isn't
The sensor is so noisy, that for the first time ever, not only do I have shots that are unusable, but you can even see the poor quality on the screen at the back!
All the new "Features" aren't anything to write home about. The various hyper zoom options give a truly horrible result-and you might as well just crop the image to give a higher perceived zoom. The low light level options are really horrible, and the new touch screen is really badly implemented.
I could carry on, but the best advice is DON'T ASSUME, as I did, that a new offering from Panasonic would be better than the last-'cos it ain't. Go check it out in a retailer yourself
After doing all the usual reviews and write ups I have had a TZ20 for three days which was to replace my trusty TZ7. What a mistake!
The sensor is really noisy and the picture quality is not as good. But the worst thing that I have found is the touch sensitive screen. Turn the camera on and just inadvertently place a finger on the display and the camera takes a picture! I have looked through the manual to see if there is a setting to turn off this setting, but have not found anything as yet!
I would be interested to hear of anyone else experiencing this problem, or is it just me, my camera or a software glitch?
Oh, and the GPS has still not managed to find enough satellites for it to work, and yes I was outdoors.
Having had a TZ7 since they first came out, Panasonic seems to have lost their way with the TZ20.
Unhappy bunny
Power-hungry camera, certainly when using GPS, and TINY battery. Budget for buying a spare. Echo comments here about noisy sensor.
Thanks everyone for your comments - I have a TZ3 and for a still image camera am delighted with it. 99.9% of the time I get excellent results. But its video mode is only 840x480 VGA with 8 bit mono sound so I am now looking for a combined digicam with better video. Having read comments here I can see that newer variants are not neccessarily better. Also, who wants / needs big brother 24/7 tracking with GPS? Simon
The TZ7 and TZ10 use the same batteries. I have both these models.
It's been really useful reading all the readers comments here. I have a Lumix TZ7, and a Lumix TZ 10. After reading all about the pros and cons of the TZ 20, the specs are maybe just to stay ahead of the competition. I have tried the camera, the 3D mode is interesting, the touch screen is a nuisance, but the comments about picture quality dropping with max zoom, and lens quality differing from the TZ7/10, maybe i will just stick to the 7 and 10., as the touch screen is enough to put me off. I will never ever part with the TZ7. p.s. My wife has a new Panasonic DMC FS 35. I can't find any comments on this site about it.
Dear All Please note
Panasonic DMC Tz20 is the third class camera d'note buy this camera
picture quality bade pure night mode allways dark picture only
i was sent to panasonic service center two time this camera for
repair within 6 months i sujjest to all of one please do not to go
with panasonic camera very badd camera i have no word for this
camera is my bp is go high after purchased this third class camera
oh my god very horrible camera buy any onether brand camera rather than panasonic DMC TZ20
I have had a DMC TZ20 for almost 2 years and it goes everywhere with me as my second camera. It has taken thousands of images and I have yet to find a fault or annoyance with the camera.
I have read comments from other users about touch screen issues, but I'd had the camera for months before I even bothered to try using it. Having tried it, I felt more comfortable using the menu system as it was the same as the TZ10 I was used to. I still have my TZ10 but just leave it in my car as a spare and it never gets used because the TZ20 has not let me down.
Yes, the GPS is power hungry but I'm aware of it and have it 'off' most of the time. I always carry a spare battery (which is the same as for the TZ10), but on a days shooting of stills, I have never needed to change or replace the battery. No probs with noise, either from the sensor or on my zoomed images so I can't find anything to complain about.
Very happy with the wide-angle which is great for photographing building and the 16x zoom has provided more that adequate pics of aircraft.
If I had to find fault, it would be that it does not take good macro shots in poor light and there you have it! Otherwise it is perfect for my needs.

Video: Voiceovers on their own Xmas party
Last weekend, dozens of producers and voice-overs attended their own Christmas party, organised by VOXMAS, and Neil Bentley's video company captured the evening.
It took place at Holiday Inn Kingston-upon-Thames, and saw many UK radio voices and producers get together for informal drinks, a black-tie dinner, a quiz and official drinks reception.
And here it is:

Yours really look great! Yes there is a very very slight difference possibly with size, but no woman has the exact same proportion on both sides. Because natural growth can even be more of a difference for some, this slight difference... READ COMMENT

This is a very unusual 1940's Cowgirl outfit in its original lithographed box. That box is 12"X13"X1 1/2", brown cardboard with red ink copy, a young cowboy featured, and in the corner, a demure little, freckle faced cowgirl. The size is L, the vest is red suedecloth, decorated with yellow cowgirls, cows, even a few cowboys. The inside is lined with blue and brown gingham fabric. The skirt is more suedecloth and gingham, with green felt waistband and fringe. May have never been worn, but does show some age wear, and stiffness. The skirt has a dark stain of unknown origin. The set even comes with a souvenir tomahawk, not original to the set, but in the box, as found. This came from the day when children's toys, and even play outfits were made from real materials, and not cheap plastic. This may be one of a kind, as complete as it is, and in its original box. Let us know if you have any questions, and thanks for looking.

How to Grow Series
Hard-Shelled Gourds for Crafts
- Site and Soil Preparation
- Seed Starting
- Hardening Off
- Transplanting to the Garden
- Watering
- Fertilizing
- Getting More Gourds from a Vine
- Pollinating
- Caring for Developing Gourds
- Harvesting
- Curing
- Finishing
Though I am no expert when it comes to growing gourds, I have grown them successfully on a small scale, so I decided to write an article to let you know of my experiences. Nothing beats getting out there and trying it for yourself. I hope this article will give you the confidence to give it a try.
I have experience growing Birdhouse gourds, Mini Birdhouse gourds, Nest Egg and Corsican gourds. These gourds seem to do well in my zone 5 gardens because they have the shortest growing season. If you live in a warmer zone, you can do research to see what will grow well in your area. If you have a greenhouse, you can extend your growing season significantly and try other varieties.
Site and Soil Preparation
Choose a location that receives full sun for best gourd production; 6-8 hours of direct sun is best. If your soil doesn't drain too well, consider raised beds to improve drainage. My raised beds are only 6" tall. Of course, if you are growing many gourds, raised beds would not be cost effective. Gourds do like water and are fairly shallow rooted, but the stems and roots can rot if kept constantly wet.
Nothing is more important to growing healthy plants than properly preparing the soil, whether you are talking about gourds, edibles, or flowering plants. If you can prepare the soil in the fall for the spring planting season, that would be best. All I do is shred up fallen leaves in the fall and pile them on the gourd beds. Then I put down a 1-2" layer of compost and/or composted manure; whatever I happen to have at the time. This will keep the leaves from blowing away and help the leaves to decompose faster. If I had a weed problem the year before, I also put a thin layer of black and white newspaper down before adding the layer of leaves. 2-3 layers would be fine for this, as you want it to decompose by spring. This will block any light needed for weed seeds to germinate and also enrich the soil. At this point, I like to hose down the bed, just to get everything settled, but it's not necessary, especially since it is usually rainy in the fall, but if you are experiencing extremely dry conditions, you may want to water it once a week so that the leaves compost properly.
Seed Starting
If you have a long growing season, you can start your seeds outside after all threat of frost is over, but if you live in zone 6 or colder, you will have to start your seeds indoors or in a greenhouse. It's easy, fun to do, and you don't have to worry about some of the seeds not germinating and scrambling to plant more.
It's best to start the seeds 6-8 weeks before you plan on setting them out in the garden. Make sure you have a lot of room for them to grow inside, because once they get started they can grow like weeds, put you can control them somewhat by pinching out the growing tips.
To begin, you need to nick the corner of your seeds with a pair of nail clippers or a sharp knife. They have hard shells and making a tiny cut will allow them to soak up water. Soak your seeds overnight in a cup of warm water. I've found that if you put a paper towel in the cup, it helps to keep the seeds submerged so that they can absorb the water. Check them the next morning and see if they have all sunk to the bottom of the cup. If they float, they need to soak longer. Add more warm water and soak them again overnight. If they still float, they are probably not mature seeds and won't sprout anyway, so throw them out and try some new ones.
I've found it's best to start gourd seeds in a container that is covered, which helps to retain moisture and in a warm area, away from direct sun light. The top of a refrigerator works great for this, or you can buy special warming mats that sit under the seed starting trays. Gourd seeds can take anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks to germinate. If conditions are perfect, I've had gourds germinate in three days.
I like to use a potting mix specifically for seed starting. Most gourd seeds need to be 1" below the soil surface, but check with your package instructions in case your variety is different. Sprinkle the containers with a little water, and cover with some sort of clear plastic to form a little mini greenhouse. Check them everyday to make sure the soil is still moist. Once they have sprouted, remove the plastic and sit them under a grow light. The closer the light is to your gourds, the stockier the plant will be. My lights are only an inch or two above the plants and the lights get moved as the plants grow.
The first set of leaves will be smooth and oval in shape and will not resemble a gourd leaf at all. Once they have grown their first set of true leaves (the ones that resemble a gourd leaf), it's safe to give them a little fertilizer. I use an organic fertilizer that encourages root development at half strength. It has a 4-15-12 ratio of Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, but any kind with a similar ratio will do fine. Once you begin to see the roots growing out the pot, it's time to pot them up to a bigger size. If you started out with small cell packs, a 4" pot, or quart size pot is fine. In this pot, I like to mix a sterile potting mix with half compost and mix in some worm castings and a slow release granular fertilizer. If they should outgrow this pot before they get set out in the spring, you can pot them up even bigger, but you shouldn't have to. If this is a problem, consider starting them later next year.
To encourage bushier plants with strong roots and to keep the gourds in check while you are growing them inside, you may want to pinch off the growing tips. I usually wait until I start to see the long tendrils growing. I don't know the technical term, but they wrap themselves around trellises or anything else they can, so that they can grow upward. They are very thin and no leaves will be growing from them. Just pinch them off, going back to the first set of leaves. This way, they won't get all tangled up in themselves. You aren't going to hurt the gourds, so don't be afraid to pinch them back.
Hardening Off
Hardening off your plants is extremely important and if you don't do it right, you can ruin all your hard work. About a week before your last frost date, you can begin hardening the plants off. Daytime temperatures should be consistently in the 50s at this point. On the first day, water the plants and then sit them in the sun for 20 minutes, bring them back inside. On the second day increase the time in the sun to 30 minutes. On the third day, increase the time to 1 hour and then double the time outdoors each day until they can stay in the sun five hours without the leaves showing signs of wilting or scorch. Check the soil to make sure it's not too dry and move them into the shade if they look stressed.
I also believe it's important for the plants to get used to the cooler temperatures outside as well. If your nights are cool, but yet well above freezing (mid to upper 40s), I like to sit them outside for several hours in the evening so they can get used to being outside in the real world. This can be done during the same week as you are getting them used to the sunshine; just start later in the day and leave them outside after the sun has set for an hour or two each night.
If temperatures suddenly turn cool in the middle of your hardening off process, you can build a cold frame or hoop house for them and they can stay in that once they have gotten used to the sun.

good to go
Script was updated, Version: 0.1, for now I will ask you to get it again using wget (link updated in the first post) because I just fixed the update option which apparently was broken.
When running the script I also included a changelog where you can see what was added/fixed.
Hope you like it!
Sickness thanks again - superb script!
Guss what.. Ran the update script rebooted and the system was dead again... Someone REALLY doesnt want me running that script.
Here is what I get -
Alert! /host/ubuntu/disks/uuid....... does not exist
Dropping to a shell
BusyBox v1.13.3 - built-in shell ASH
Found these types of info https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/581157
but i have not found a solution yet.
Has anyone here experienced similar behavior like @furt1maggr3d10r ?
the update script is a good script thanks sickness great work as usualQuote:
furt1maggr3d10r have done some over tweaking :)
Im not saying you dont know what your doing furt1maggr3d10r buy did you reboot after all the tweaking and then do the update or get all weaked out:)
and then update as you may have deleted some files by accident and though the script ruined the system when it was the tweaking was the cause and you didnt
realize it until you rebooted
Ive looked through the script and can see how it would wipe the files or delete
as sickness has said if anyone else has this happen please report as it maybe a valid problem
What do you mean by "Ive looked through the script and can see how it would wipe the files or delete " ? which section ?
Does the update script update the kernel ?? I had a similar issue with BT4 and dual boot. Every Kernel update, I would lose one of my boots and had to modify the grub menu to get it back.
I am going to check if the ASUS G73 comes with some hidden Fat32 partition or something that may be getting in the way. I will re image today and see if I can do it again..
Also, I will look for some logs. But at that initramfs boot prompt, not a ton of commands available. I was able to do a ls and saw that the /pentest directory was gone. but my rapid7 install was still in the /opt
I like the script and dont want to do each manually, that is why I will keep trying.
Edit 1:
Hi - So I re imaged, did nothing but run update script and reboot. Came up OK.
Rand fdisk and ls and this was the results.

Anyone see an issue that i am missing that may cause issues ?
Never seen the line like above with the fdisk command though..
i will keep trying to reproduce. Obviously something I am doing, just only noticing after updating.
Edit 2:
Once in awhile you remove something, install something, and you get the prompt
blah blah blah, no longer needed, use apt-get autoremove ...
Ya OK, so that is what is doing it. I not remember seeing it last night.
Why is this causing my initramfs boot, no idea, but there ya go.
Update away......
Sorry for the interruption and great script...

Nicole Scherzinger and 50 Cent were the guest performers on Fox's "American Idol" last night, and the hot duo took their new single "Right There" to the big stage.
The track is the latest sampling of the former Pussy Cat Doll's long-awaited solo debut Killer Love, which is due August 16th via Interscope Records. Scherzinger tapped her Interscope labelmate Fif to lend a few bars to give the track that extra flash.

Found growing under Quercus agrifolia. When cut produced a milky latex.
I cant tell, is that an annulus (ring) or another mushroom partially hidden by the leaf? If so then I don't think its L. rufulus. Not to mention (cough) wikipedia (cough) and this site below say latex is "scant" in that species, and other sources describe it as watery. Also, L. rufulus tends to be described as having a more "reddish" cap, which a search in google images reinforces. Unfortunately I dont have a better answer.
I would call this http://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/Lactarius_rubidus, but it's a confusing group, as the mykoweb page shows. Supposedly L. rufulus does *not* have the maple/butterscotch odor when dried.
Yeah, I was going with L. rufulus based on the convex, the kinda clear milky latex, found under oaks. I did smell it but, I don't remember it smelling much more than sweet dirt.

Stylist: Luisa
Great service from the moment you walk in! Luisa really knows how to treat curly hair. I'm 3b/3c and I left the salon feeling like I've met my future stylist as long as I live in this area. I was commuting about 1/2 hour and now I found someone 10 minutes away from my house! I can't wait to go back after the humidity goes away I'm told that Claribel gives great blow outs.
