As, I was installing my FreePBX server with Asterisk. I decided to move the installed virtual machine on Virtualbox to VMware Esxi Server. So, it will be running non-stop. It took me lot of time and research to accomplish this task. Even it seem fairly easy. That's why, I would like share with you guys.
How to convert VirtualBox OVA to Vsphere OVF
I am running my vm machine Esixi server 5.0 and Virtualbox 4.2.6
I moving Debian Virtual Machine.
Tool need to complete this tasks :
1. Vware OVF Tool : http://communities.vmware.com/community/vmtn/server/vsphere/automationtools/ovf (It is FREE to download but you need have a VMware account )
2. Microsoft Checksum Verify utility : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841290 (Need to check SHA1)
3. Text editor Notepad or any other tools : I prepare Notepad++
First of all, export your virtual machine from Virtualbox. Give the location for the file and save as ova file
After, Install the VMware OVF Tool. I am using the version 3.0.1
Once, the file has been created and the tool is installed.
Open the command line and navigate to the OVF tool folder.
Type the command below : ovftool.exe –lax <source.ova> <destination.ovf> Do not forget the option –lax
You can conslut the guide for this tool at : http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/ovf/ovf301/ovftool-301-userguide.pdf
ovftool.exe –lax "C:\Users\ygotame\Desktop\Asterix Now.ova" "C:\Users\ygotame\Desktop\Asterix Now.ovf"
Once the command is complete, you will see three files :
1. Asterix Now.mf SHA1 Info File
2. Asterix Now.ovf Configuration file
3. Asterix Now-disk.vmdk Virtual Hard drive
Now open, Vsphere client and click to deploy ovf file.
Give the OVF file location and try to upload to the server.
You might this error : Unsupported hardware family virtualbox-2.2
Error: OVF Package is not supported by target: Line 25: Unsupported hardware family 'virtualbox-2.2'.
If it is the case for you, open the ovf file with your favorite text editor.
And, change the line :
with this
To avoid the error message : Line 66: OVF hardware element 'ResourceType' with instance ID '5': No support for the virtual hardware device type '20'
In the same file, modify the item Instance 5:
<rasd:Description>SATA Controller</rasd:Description>
With this
<rasd:Description>SCSI Controller</rasd:Description>
Save the change and try again to deploy
At this time, you will get the error saying the file fail the control of integrity and could be corrupted. As the vpshere sever check the <file>.mf to verify the integrity. We will modify that to make sure the correct information is enter.
For that, download the Microsoft toll that I mention above and extract the file where you prepare. I will dump it at C:\Temp
Now, we need to find out new SHA1 key for <file>.ovf because we made some change. Therefore, open command line and navigate to the place where you had extracted the Microsoft tool.
Execute the command : fciv.exe -sha1 <filename.ovf>
fciv.exe C:\Users\ygotame\Desktop\ItSecure\OVF file new SHA1.png
Now, copy the new SHA1 key 51bd98… and open <filename>.mf
Paste the new value in the file and save it.
Once that has been done, try one more time to deploy the vm machine. This time, it should be working without any issue.
That's all for now folks.
If you have any other issue or need more information. Leave a comment below. I will be happy to assist you.

Hello! My name is Ffion Reynolds and I'm the Council of British Archaeology's Community Archaeologist – placed at Cadw, which is the historic environment service for the Welsh Government. My post is part of a project funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund, and you can find out more about it here.
Usually, I'm a Neolithic specialist; working with the Council for British Archaeology and Cadw, however, I find myself travelling from one period to another. One minute, I'm exploring community projects about Neolithic archaeology; the next I'm organising medieval open days for the Festival of British Archaeology.
My activities this weekend will take me even further from my period of specialism, as I take 160 visitors to a twentieth-century military base, otherwise known as the Caerwent Training Area. Accompanying me and sharing their knowledge on the tour will be Jonathan Berry (Regional Inspector of South-east Wales), Medwyn Parry (Royal Commission Ancient and Historical Monuments Wales) and Don Waring (Caerwent Historian). This will take place on Sunday the 31st of July as part of the Festival of British Archaeology: the last day of the festival for this year.
As this is the Day of Archaeology, I thought I'd flag it up here, as it would be great to share this experience with you over the weekend – especially since military sites are pretty strange and interesting places.
Caerwent Military Base is a huge site, the location of a former propellant factory and munitions dump. Within the wire (or the boundaries of the MOD Training Area) there are 414 original buildings, built and used between 1938 and 1942. Later developments include the rocket manufacturing plant, within the former Royal Naval Propellant Factory; and 64 American magazines – places in which ammunition was stored. In addition, there are 75 air raid shelters, and most are still intact.
Since the departure of the Americans in 1993, the site has become a troop training area, as well as an explosives demolition practice area, which is limited to a few structures. These days, a number of buildings are used by visiting troops for training purposes, and also by civilian companies as storage.
Recently twentieth century military sites have been recognised as an important element of our heritage and, as such, we're hoping to set up more community projects at the site….
…so I'll be back on Sunday with more about how the tour went!

Another repetition of the hissy finger-pointy meme that (deep breath and then say along with me) FTbloggersareevilbullies.
I should have written this post a few months ago…I am ashamed that I didn't write about this months ago. It is with more than a little apprehension that I say the following: I think there might be some truth to the seemingly outrageous claim that a few of the bloggers at FtB are acting like bullies.
To be clear, the majority of those writing for FtB have not been doing any detectible bullying. In fact, I am referring to a relatively small group of about 4 or 5 at most. Based on the comments I've seen here and on other atheist blogs, as well as the email I've received, I am fairly confident you know who they are. So while I am of the opinion that FtB and any other blog conglomerate is generally a bad idea, this is not an indictment of the entire FtB team.
No no, not at all…But then why say FtB at all? Why not just talk about the specific blogs instead? "FtB" doesn't blog anything; specific blogs do. Talk to them, don't talk to the umbrella.
Then there's the lack of specifics. There are three links to posts – one each of PZ's, mine, and Jason's – but there are no quoted passages. There's a lot of very stale, recycled-looking generalization, with no particulars at all. The generalization is so recycled that it's even labeled as such in places –
From what I have seen for myself and heard from others, they quickly dismiss ideas different from their own…Phrases like "groupthink," "hive mind," and "echo chamber" have been used when describing these few FtB bloggers. There was talk of this well before Kirby…I have heard from many people who are questioning whether they can continue to support FtB as long as they promote the few bloggers to which I am referring.
People say, therefore it must be true, so I will say too, without troubling myself to give any particulars at all, even to illustrate what the hell I'm talking about, let alone actually demonstrating it. Buzz buzz buzz, whisper whisper whisper, ooooooh doncha just hate that FTB.
There is also the fact that at least some of that buzzbuzz is coming from a very small but very dedicated and very obsessed group who hate the mythic beast FTB out of all proportion to its actual evil or importance. They are having some success in creating an impression that Everybody Thinks FTB is terrible – so people like this Atheist Revolution feel "ashamed" that they didn't get out ahead of the curve and talk smack about FTB "months ago" – as if it were some urgent duty left undone as opposed to a stupid spiteful campaign of cyberstalking.
There's one item I want to dispute directly.
Kirby deserved flak for the "feminzai" slur. Isn't that one of Rush Limbaugh's words? She should have known that this would color everything else she wrote, even though some of her points were valid. But I do think it should have been okay for her to raise the issue of bullying without being ripped to shreds over it. Based on the prolonged reaction to her letter, I'm not sure this was the case.
That's stupid. She didn't just "raise the issue of bullying" (and it's debatable whether there really is an issue separate from the campaign to make it an issue); she called people a lot of very rude names including Nazi and Stasi in the process of claiming that they're bullies. That's why she got harsh responses. Since there is no rude-names-free version of Kirby's discussion of "the issue of bullying," it's not possible to know how that version would have been received, and it certainly makes no sense to scold us for not addressing a version that doesn't exist. The sneering epithets are interwoven into the "Oppressed Sisterhood" article, and that's the article I and others criticized.
I could always just get a T shirt made up…

Article content
Save the best for last, because that's what people remember.
That's just what the Edmonton Oil Kings did, saving the 2014 Memorial Cup in London from mediocrity with two gutsy, emotional and well-earned wins.
On the heels of a triple-overtime thriller against the Val d'Or Foreurs, the Western Hockey League champions stunned the Guelph Storm 6-3 Sunday at the Gardens to win the 2014 Memorial Cup championship.
The Oil Kings were supposed to be buried deeper than an Alberta oil rig drill, after they lost their first two games against Portland in the WHL final.
The Oil Kings and their fans saw their team survive that situation, but most everyone else believed they had blown their chance at the title when they had to go to triple overtime Friday.
Toss in the general feeling that the Storm were simply the better, more talented team and it didn't look good.
They may have had more individual talent, but on Sunday the Storm weren't the better team.
That moniker belonged to the Oil Kings.
Deadmonton became the City of Champions yet again.
Down early, down again later in the game, the Oil Kings never stopped. They played like a team that believed.
They would not fall back on excuses.
Thanks for that.
A surprising last game was something this tournament deserved. Organizers and television would have settled for a good game. What they got was a stunning result.
London fans stuck with this tournament. The average was more than 8,800 a game, even when the games didn't mean anything to London.
One can't be myopic in judging a tournament based solely on who participated.
The London Knights crashed out of the event in historic fashion as only the second host club in Memorial Cup history to be eliminated without winning a game. If the sole benchmark for the success of failure of a tournament rested on whether the local team made it to the final or not, then the question is not about whether the tournament had value but more on the efficacy of London as a cultured sports town.
From the moment the Knights were granted the 2014 Memorial Cup, the plan had always been for them to be around until the end. The nightmare scenario played out when the Knights were the first team eliminated from the tournament.
It was a bonus that Guelph managed to make the final. About 80 minutes from London, Storm fans were able to gobble up tickets at a bargain price for the final. The packed house for the final had great atmosphere.
London fans deserve credit for sucking up their disappointment over their ruined party. The semifinal game on a Friday night between the Oil Kings and Val d'Or Foreurs could have been disastrous. Londoners who purchased tickets on the off chance they would have to use it to see the Knights could have easily decided to eat the cost of the ticket.
Instead they came out and almost filled the joint. In return, the Oil Kings and Foreurs gave them a triple overtime game, perhaps the best game of the tournament.
But the Knights premature ejection from the tournament also caused concern about beer sales and attendance for entertainment events surrounding the tournament.
From the moment the Knights were eliminated tournament organizers went to work ensuring events were well attended using a variety of marketing ploys including free and discounted tickets.
As a result what might have been a dead Saturday night turned into a busy night with the concert and beer tent well attended.
This 2014 event wasn't like 2005 when the Memorial Cup tournament was about as perfect from a London standpoint as anyone could have hoped for.
But it proved again its value to the city. The city didn't run much of a risk. It didn't have to spend millions as it did for the World Figure Skating Championship.
The city dumped all the responsibility for the finances and tournament on the organizing committee and Mark and Dale Hunter, the owners of the Knights.
They accepted and took the risk.
So the tournament wasn't a sensational, goose bump-raising, thrill-a-minute. The hockey could have been better and from an interest point of view, the Knights could have survived a little longer to goose up the excitement.
But considering the what-ifs and could-have-beens, it went pretty damn well.

For Transitions OpticalGina RichardsonBurson-Marsteller(412) firstname.lastname@example.com RodriguezTransitions Optical, Inc.(727) 545-0400 ext. email@example.com
For VSP VisionCareAlex Sigua(916) email@example.com
Underserved Individuals at Community Organizations Receive Comprehensive Eye Exams and Brand New Eyeglasses in Hopes of a Brighter Future
PINELLAS PARK, Fla., November 6, 2012 – Transitions Optical, in partnership with VSP® Vision Care, will visit the San Francisco area this week with a 40-foot, state-of-the-art mobile vision clinic, nicknamed "Eyenstein," to provide underserved individuals at local community organizations with free eye exams and if needed, prescription eyeglasses – to underscore the importance of healthy, enhanced vision as a key component of developing the skills needed to achieve a brighter future.
Eyenstein will visit two community organizations this week – Delancey Street Foundation on November 6th and 7th, and The Life Learning Academy on November 8th and 9th – whose missions are to assist underserved individuals, ranging in age from teenagers to senior citizens, who have struggled with hardships including homelessness and substance abuse, and provide them with the necessary skills and education to work to better their lives. Prequalified individuals at both of these organizations will receive a free, comprehensive eye exam by a local VSP doctor; if prescription eyeglasses are required, they can choose eyeglass frames right onboard the clinic that will be fitted with customized Transitions® adaptive lenses, to help enhance their vision in the short-term and protect it in the long-term, allowing them to see their best as they work toward achieving their personal and professional goals.
"It is estimated that approximately 12 million Americans have an undetected vision problem," said Dan McLean, marketing manager, communications, Transitions Optical. "Transitions Optical, along with our partner VSP, hopes to reduce this statistic particularly among children and young adults as reading and learning is so critical to success in and out of classroom, by making proper eye care and eyewear a reality for those in-need, and providing these individuals with one of the most important tools – healthy, enhanced vision – to help them achieve their goals and work toward a brighter future."
Since the inception of Eyenstein in 2010, more than 5,500 people nationwide have received comprehensive eye exams onboard the clinic and approximately 4,200 received free eyeglasses with Transitions lenses.
Prior to visiting the San Francisco area, Eyenstein traveled across the country, making stops in cities including Chicago, Ill. and Houston, Texas, providing thousands of elementary school students in-need with free eye exams and eyeglasses, allowing them to see and perform their best both in and out of the classroom. Because one in four children has an undetected vision problem, comprehensive eye exams and proper eyewear can be critical for success during school and in the future as they work to achieve their goals. Eyenstein will conclude its 2012 tour through December, and is currently planning to visit even more underserved communities, schools and organizations next year. As part of its nationwide outreach, Transitions Optical encourages everyone to "promise" to take care of their eyes by getting regular, comprehensive eye exams and wearing proper eyewear. Because eye damage is cumulative, it is never too early or too late to begin taking care of your eyes.
To find out more about Eyenstein and how you can "promise" to care for your eyes, visit www.myeyepromise.com. To find an eye doctor near you, visit www.transitions.com.
About the Transitions/VSP Mobile Eyes Clinic
Since inception, the VSP Mobile Eyes® program has had over 1,100 VSP doctors volunteer their time participating in more than 500 events and helping over 113,000 people see more clearly. What started as an extension of relief efforts following Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005, the program features two mobile eyecare clinics, each with two comprehensive exam rooms and full eyeglass dispensaries, which respond to disasters and assist people in need in communities throughout the U.S. In March 2010, Transitions Optical partnered with VSP Vision Care to introduce the third clinic in the Mobile Eyes fleet, Eyenstein, which has the unique feature of a finishing lab, featuring full-service lens finishing equipment, providing patients with eyeglasses on site.

Meteorologists and motoring organisations have agreed that, despite hopes, Convertible Day did not occur over the past weekend and may not happen for weeks to come.
Convertible Day is the one day a year when it is really enjoyable to drive a convertible car with the hood down, and usually occurs in early spring. Obviously it can't be raining or too cold, but summer brings its own downside too, with insects, sunburn and increased pollution.
C-Day can't occur when traffic is too heavy, so Mondays, Fridays and holiday periods are out. Sundays are popular but can be ruined by too many other convertibles and Micras on the road.
A spokesperson for the AA said the best bet is to get a car with a good sound system and climate control, play some Beach Boys and enjoy watching convertible drivers trying to look as if they are enjoying themselves.

By having an ADT-monitored security system installed in your home, you may be able to save on your homeowners insurance premiums. That's money back in your wallet!
24 Hours a day monitoring

Burglaries Cost More than You Think
Being the victim of a home burglary can be a very distressing experience. Stress may become compounded once the financial impact of a burglary becomes apparent. According to the FBI, burglary victims in 2011 faced, on average, nearly $2,200 in property loss. This number doesn't take into consideration additional expenses in the form of lost wages, insurance deductibles, and various other costs. Residents of some cities were victims of as many as 109101 property crimes and 27459 burglaries in 2011. Several of these burglaries could have been prevented had homeowners installed home security systems, which can deter potential intruders from breaking into a residence.
Why Florida Homeowners Choose ADT Monitoring Systems
There are many different reasons Florida residents choose ADT Security Monitoring to help protect their home & family from burglary and other disasters. But we thought we'd list just a few reasons for choosing SafeStreets USA and ADT.
Multiple types of protection. ADT monitored security systems not only help protect against burglaries and home invasion, but also helps against fire and even carbon monoxide poisoning. An alarm can help wake your family in case of smoke and fire. A panic button can also help contact police or fire department during an emergency, perhaps even saving your life.
Security equipment that's easy to use. With just a push of a button you can easily arm and disarm your system. And with the panic button your family can quickly alert emergency response such as police or the need of an ambulance.
Dependable equipment and confident monitoring your home security system is monitored 24 hours a day and 365 days per year by trained staff at the ready. ADT provides great redundancy with 6 US monitoring centers your home is never unprotected. If one center is down then another automatically starts monitoring your home.
Quick deployment of first responders. At any time your alarm is triggered or you push the panic button, ADT's monitoring centers will quickly try and verify your situation. If you are having an actual emergency ADT will immediately notify police or fire responders with your exact location and details.
Tip: How to help Prevent a House Break-In
Conquering the Basics
Believe it or not, many burglaries are committed through an unlocked door. Burglars will often walk right in with ease and immediately damage the sense of well-being in your home. The easiest thing to do to prevent break ins is make sure that all doors in your home are locked. Simple oversights like this cause families to lose countless dollars in stolen property and their precious peace of mind.
Your front door isn't the only vulnerable spot in your house. The garage door is your home's biggest door, so don't leave it exposed. Make sure to install a garage door control. There are now controls you can install to open and close your garage doors remotely from a smartphone, tablet, or computer, so you never have to worry about leaving the biggest door to your home open.
Basement doors, pet doors, and the windows in your home need some attention, too. Check to make sure all areas of entry into your home are secured and locked sufficiently. Most burglaries happen during the day, so take extra care before you leave for work or vacation. Some burglars have also said that leaving a TV on or radio deterred them from entering, as they couldn't tell if someone was home or not.
While it may seem obvious to simply keep all of your doors locked at all times (even if you are home), you can take this a step further by choosing a home security system from a respected security company like ADT to help prevent break ins.
Home Security Is a Must
While step one is to make sure all your windows and doors are locked whenever possible, this still won't prevent the more persistent intruders who will stop at nothing to get in your home. Thankfully, today's home security systems are powerful, intuitive, and easy for the whole household to use.
Thieves aren't so lucky these days with all the advances in home security and automation. You can now install a system that protects your home, and prevent break-ins from the elements—anything life throws at you. Set your security system remotely and put your mind at ease with automatic locks, a security system that monitors every move, and video surveillance that you can access from anywhere. Your home's security is always in your control.

Adobe® Lens Profile Creator is a free utility that enables the easy creation of lens profiles for use in the Adobe Photoshop® family of products, such as Adobe Photoshop CS6, the Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in and Adobe Photoshop Lightroom®. A lens profile describes the types of optical aberrations that exist in a particular lens and prescribes how to correct the lens distortions in an image captured from the same lens.
Specifically, Lens Profile Creator characterizes three common types of lens aberrations: geometric distortion, lateral chromatic aberration and vignette. The process of creating a custom lens profile for your lens involves capturing a set of checkerboard images using your specific camera and lens, converting the set of raw format images into the standard Digital Negative (DNG) file format using the Camera Raw plug-in, Lightroom or the free DNG Converter and importing the raw DNG images (or the JPEG/TIFF images if you prefer creating lens profiles for the non-raw workflow) in the Lens Profile Creator to generate the custom lens profile. You can also submit the lens profiles that you have created for your lens from inside the Lens Profile Creator to share with the rest of the user community. These profiles will then be available via the new Adobe Lens Profile Downloader.
Lens Profile Creator is great for photographers at any level who would like to create a custom lens profile for their own lens. We are excited about the new utility and we hope that you will find it very useful, too.

Even the smallest task seemed insurmountable to 2012 Truman Scholar Brent Reader when he returned home from a tour in Iraq as an Army combat medic. Just a trip to the store where he'd overhear everyday, trivial conversations was insufferable for the veteran as he fended off images from the war, including the trauma of trying to save the life of his close friend who had been shot beside him.
Reader, a junior social work major, spent twelve months in Ar Ramadi, considered the most dangerous city in the world at the time, and saw everything from ambushes to roadside bombs to firefights.

NEA applauds President Obama's health care reform proposal
NEA president urges Congress to remember America's uninsured children at Thursday's summit
WASHINGTON - February 22, 2010 -
Today, in advance of Thursday's much anticipated health care summit, President Barack Obama released his proposal for health care reform. The National Education Association with the support of its 3.2 million members applauded the proposal.
The following statement can be attributed to NEA President Dennis Van Roekel:
"Millions of our nation's children have gone without health insurance and proper medical care for far too long. Over the course of the last year, the nation has watched as this political debate wound its way through a political obstacle course. A year later, far too many children in this country are still without critical medical attention. Now is the time to rectify this wrong. There has been enough talk. There has been enough blame and finger pointing. Now is the time for action.
"With President Obama's new health care reform proposal released today and with the televised health summit on Thursday, our nation's leaders have a renewed opportunity to grant these children and all working families a healthier outlook on life that will have a positive effect on their lives in school and the workplace. Educators and school nurses know that children learn best when they are healthy, and we know that children without insurance are less likely to get medical attention when they need it.
"School nurses do a heroic job of trying to fill the gap and treat sick children at school, but the problems begin before students even enter the schoolhouse door. Even when uninsured children do see a doctor, the overall quality of their care suffers because they do not have a primary physician, and as educators, we know far too well that a sick child isn't going to perform.
"If we want to ensure that no sick child suffers due to lack of medical care, and if we truly want to give every student an opportunity to receive a quality education, we must reform our health insurance system so every family is protected. These are undebatable basic rights for every child in this country and neither should be fodder for partisan games.
"America's working families bore a disproportionate burden due to the financial crisis over the last year. Congressional leadership has an opportunity to lighten that burden by quickly passing health care reform legislation that is comprehensive and provides affordable, quality health care for all Americans."

The Who's Pete Townshend has played – and smashed – many different guitar brands over the years. But he had a ripe period when he played – and again smashed - Gibsons. From the mid '60s to mid-'70s – for many The Who's glory days – Townshend relied on a variety of Gibson electrics and acoustics. Here's a brief rundown.
In The Who's early days, Townshend's stunt of smashing guitars onstage made him notorious. It was good theatre. Only problem? It was costing him more in guitars than the whole band were earning.
Townshend first started using Gibson semi's circa 1966-'67: at first a borrowed ES-175, then ES-335s (345s and 355s). And before Jimmy Page made the Gibson SG EDS-1275 doubleneck famous (for live performances of "Stairway to Heaven"), Townshend was using a black EDS-1275 6/12 to play "Substitute" live.
He even maimed that guitar – there are photos of Townshend in 1967 at London's Saville Theatre with the 6/12 guitar, obviously rebuilt, as the necks are at splayed angles and a there's clearly visible repair in the body between the necks.
Pete Townshend and Gibson SGs
The more regular single-neck Gibson SGs soon became favorites of Townshend. He played a double-cut Les Paul TV and a single-cut Les Paul Standard for various 1967 shows, but it was 1968 when Townshend was more often seen with a Gibson SG Special. Townshend played SGs for many famous late-'60s to early-'70s Who live recordings, including Woodstock, Live at Leeds and Isle of Wight, as well as the recordings of Tommy and "The Seeker."
As ever, the original guitars got battered, but his favorite model was first honoured by Gibson in 2000. It had a mahogany body, satin cherry finish, mahogany neck with rosewood fingerboard, chrome hardware and two P-90 pickup. A limited edition signature added an issue number decal on back of headstock and "tour worn" faded cherry finish. If you wanted to smash up the $3500 guitar, that was up to you.
In 2011, Gibson put out a 50th anniversary signature of another of Townshend's famed SGs. In Polaris White, this was a repro of PT's early-'60s SG Special with a smaller pre-'65 pickguard. Townshend used his for The Who's first British Quadrophenia shows in late 1972 and early '73, before switching to Gibson Les Paul Deluxes for the remainder of the '70s.
Pete Townshend and Gibson Les Pauls
As The Who got heavier in the 1970s, Townshend turned to full-on Les Pauls. Notably, he favoured the relatively-unloved Deluxe model, with mini-humbuckers. Why? Townshend had smashed many an original SG Special and they weren't widely available anymore. Maybe Townshend had destroyed his own supply line, hmm?
He used Les Paul Deluxes widely in the 1970s, when Townshend started stickering his Les Paul stash with numbers. It wasn't about preference – Townshend at first used the LetraSet stickers to help his guitar tech know the guitar he needed for which Who song (and, thus, where any capo should be).
Cherry Sunbursts and Gold Tops were to the fore. Townshend regularly made modifications – DiMarzio humbucking pickups in the middle (making his Deluxes DIY-'Customs', if you like), and coil-tap switch on some. And nerdy fact alert: Townshend played Gibson 340 Sonomatic .012 strings (.012, .016, .016 or .018 for G, .032, .044, .056) on his Les Pauls. Many of these Les Pauls have been auctioned/displayed in various states of disrepair/carnage.
In 2005, Gibson issued three Pete Townshend-signature edition Les Paul Deluxe guitars, based on his #1 Wine Red Les Paul Deluxe, his #3 Gold Top and his #9 Cherry Sunburst (all 1976). According to Who sources, Townshend himself now only owns one of his nine Les Paul Deluxes - #8 is a cherry sunburst Les Paul Deluxe, also built in the 1970s.
Pete Townshend and Gibson J-200s
A Gibson J-200 was the defining acoustic sound of The Who when Pete Townshend stretched out as a composer. He wrote "Pinball Wizard" on his J-200, which starred on The Who's Tommy album. "I picked it out from about five at Manny's in New York in 1968," Townshend told Gibson.com. "It had a crisp sound and an easy neck. It was only later I found how well the J-200 records when you play it hard. Like the Everly [Brothers] acoustic, it has a rather dead soundboard and that allows you to really dig in when strumming.
"They are hard to bring to life with piezo pickups because the sound is so distinctive in real air, but the body shape, the necks and the sheer strength of the guitar are all very important to me. They also look utterly beautiful."
Townshend's favorite J-200 "exploded." He was working on his solo album Iron Man in 1990 when disaster struck. Townshend told Guitarist magazine: "I don't have romantic misconceptions about musical instruments – they're just wood, probably far more useful as pulp than anything else. There are actually a couple of instruments that I would miss, and in fact a weird thing happened to the J-200 that I've had for a long time. Half-way through Iron Man it got wet in the studio and exploded. It was almost like the guitar getting back at me – the only guitar I cared about dying on me!"
Townshend donated the original guitar to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1993.
From SGs to Les Pauls to J-200s, Townshend smashed and crashed untold amounts of Gibsons. Beyond the debris, there remains some The Who's greatest songs and performances.

I found this lithograph at a local estate. The owner said there grandpa was an artist and new alot of famous artist...this litho belonged to him.
The paper it is on has tiny tiny little squares...almost looks like what they make a cast with when you break your arm. (i am probably wrong but I think this may be called canvas?).
It is signed Red Skelton (looks like a print of the signature). Dated 1972.
Does this have any value?

JOE AMARANTE: Weeks after slayings, violent films lead box office
Well, at least the word "massacre" wasn't in the title. But "Texas Chainsaw 3D" was the top movie in box office receipts nationally this weekend.
And that just feels wrong in Connecticut, where nerves are still frayed after the real-life mass slaying at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
The sixth horror film in the Leatherface/chainsaw slayer franchise scored an estimated $23 million in box office business on its opening weekend, exceeding expectations and besting "Django Unchained," another violent film, with an estimated $20 million.
That bloody Quentin Tarantino film has grossed $106.35 million through 13 days, and Tarantino didn't enjoy being asked about "Django's" blood quotient in light of Newtown recently, according to a New York Daily News report.
National Public Radio's Terry Gross asked Tarantino if, "after the massacre," referring to the Sandy Hook tragedy, he ever loses his "taste for movie violence?"
No, he said. "Would I watch a kung fu movie three days after the Sandy Hook massacre? Maybe, because they have nothing to do with each other."
Gross said he sounded annoyed. "Yea, I'm really annoyed," he responded. "I think it's disrespectful to their memory ... the issue is gun control and mental health."
An editor at Boxoffice.com said Sunday night that the weekend results could not be broken down by state, so it's unknown how big an audience the two films drew in Connecticut's roughly eight dozen theaters.
But it's safe to say that violent entertainment continues unchecked in America in the new year.
The Newtown horror occurred just two days before the season finale of "Homeland" on Showtime, in which a car bomb wipes out an entire memorial service filled with government officials. The episode, paired with Showtime's serial killer show "Dexter," scored record ratings the same night as the Newtown interfaith vigil with President Barack Obama.
Violent entertainment wins in this country, especially with young moviegoers. The box office report notes that the audience breakdown for "Texas Chainsaw 3D" skewed heavily toward the under-25 age group, at 64 percent, although it was close among genders (52 percent female, 48 percent male).
Rounding out the top five films in earnings this weekend were "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey," with $17.5 million, "Les Miserables," with $16.1 million (with its domestic total now over $103.6 million) and "Parental Guidance," at $10.1 million. The thing about TV and movie violence, its producers point out, is that it's not all that dangerous to well-adjusted viewers. Unless you consider the desensitization and tolerance for ultra-violent weapons.
The flip response to concerns about "Texas Chainsaw 3D" is that it doesn't even feature an assault rifle in the title. But you won't find many breezy responses to violence among those touched by the vessels of "semi-automatic" death and destruction.
Oh, and submitted for your approval: Former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and her husband, Mark Kelly. The popular duo, who visited Newtown last week, will speak with the TV anchor on "World News with Diane Sawyer" Tuesday about their new initiative to deal with America's violence problem.
Violence in America is not the gun makers' or owners' problem; it's not Tarantino's problem; it's not Hollywood's problem. It's always someone else's problem. Like ours.

Awesome post! I think every garage should have a WFO!
how wonderful.....can't wait to see the final product!Congratulations!
LOL. OK, Let me get this straight: You are going to LEAVE the oven in the garage?! I have talked my wife into a lot of crazy chit, but I don't think I could float that one. I salute you, Sir!4 ea 12x12 iron plates and couple of hundred pounds of crushed ice and you could have pushed it into place by yourself.
Wow, what an experience, congratulations...But after reading that first post, why am I reminded of Clark Griswold?
Craig,The one picture of you with your big smile standing by your oven, reminds me of the Cheshire Cat. You and your friend did a fantastic job getting though all the obstacles! Cant wait to see more.Norma
Craig by the smile on your face in all the pictures it doesn't seem like the little hiccups bothered you that much. Are you going to be tiling the outside of the oven or leaving it how it is?
Thanks Bill. I think I'm going to pretend it's my restaurant and call it "Craig's Neapolitan Garage"
I am going to tile it when I figure out what I want to do. Who knows how long that will take. The only thing I know for sure is that it will have 2011 on it. When I was in DC over spring break, I really liked the tile on the floor inside the Washington Monument at the bottom in the waiting area just outside the elevator. It was done with little triangles.
In the mean time before I tile it, I was thinking of painting it up like a UFO and putting some bright green lights under it. Something like the picture below.
This true story will be much more fun to tell than 'We picked up the oven and put it in the garage" I'm just glad to see the oven made it home in one piece.Ventilation ? Schmentilation. Let the smoke draft out the back of the garage, naturally.

We've been thrilled with the success we've had with MetaMAM in the first half year of its existence. We have a number of installs here in the US, with dozens of sales pending. We also saw incredible response at IBC 2012 with its "cousin" products. The software was demonstrated in Apple's private briefing rooms, and publicly at Adobe's stand as well.
We also received a very clear message from the marketplace at IBC, both from third party vendors as well as potential customers. There was a general sense of confusion about the multiple variants of the products all derived from Cantemo's MediaBox. Were they the same product? Were they compatible with each other? Would they run each other's apps, themes and extensions?
To that end, today we're announcing, along with our partners at Cantemo and other integrators around the world, that the new name of the software is Cantemo Portal™. This will be the software's worldwide branding, and will help us to strengthen the message of its unified underpinnings.
We want to emphatically stress that this is a branding name change only. Here in the US, Portal™ will be available through the same strong consortium of authorized integration partners. These partners have been hand-selected by Meta Media to provide best-in-class consultation, integration and customization services for the product. On the east coast, we are proud to have Control Group represent Portal™. In the midwest, 1303 Systems has been the early leader in number of integrations. In the mountain range, GW Hannaway and Associates brings a strong portfolio of previous Final Cut Server and shared storage integrations to the table. And out west, North Shore Automation rounds our the list to form a nationwide consortium of excellence.
Next up, Portal™ version 1.4 will be released soon, with the often-requested feature of Quantum StorNext compatibility (so it can mount Xsan volumes).
We're happy to announce the immediate availability of our first app designed to ease the transition for Final Cut Server users. ScriptRunner™ will allow Portal™ to run external executables in the exact same manner as Final Cut Server: firing from specific metadata changes and handing off metadata fields. This will allow you to transition all of your diligent scripting work for Final Cut Server directly into your new Portal™ install.
We're also pleased to announce that our dear colleague André Aulich has formed a new company in order to market the apps he is building for Cantemo Portal™. The company is called moosystems. At this site, you can get more information about their Final Cut Server migration tool, called CP Migration Tool, their interface for Archiware PresSTORE integration and other disk based archive schemes, entitled CP Archive App, and a sneak peek at the super-exciting file system event "listener" app called CP Media Detection. These apps will round out the tools needed to transition your Final Cut Server into Portal™ seamlessly and quickly. Meta Media and our authorized integration partners for Portal™ will of course be able to sell you any of tools from moosystems.
Don't forget to visit our daughter site dedicated to introducing Portal™. You can find it at www.mmct.com/portal.
However, to really see the strength of the system and to preview some of its standard media tools, you need a personal, one-on-one demo. We'd love to make an appointment with you to do this. Contact us today to schedule your appointment.

Researchers map how staph infections alter immune system
(14 July 2009: VIDYYA MEDICAL NEWS SERVICE) -- Infectious disease specialists at UT Southwestern Medical Center have mapped the gene profiles of children with severe Staphylococcus aureus infections, providing crucial insight into how the human immune system is programmed to respond to this pathogen and opening new doors for improved therapeutic interventions.
In recent years, much research has focused on understanding precisely what the bacterium S aureus does within the host to disrupt the immune system. Despite considerable advances, however, it remained unclear how the host's immune system responded to the infection and why some people are apt to get more severe staphylococcal infections than others.
By using gene expression profiling, a process that summarizes how individual genes are being activated or suppressed in response to the infection, UT Southwestern researchers pinpointed how an individual's immune system responds to a S. aureus infection at the genetic level.
"The beauty of our study is that we were able to use existing technology to understand in a real clinical setting what's going on in actual humans – not models, not cells, not mice, but humans," said Dr. Monica Ardura, instructor of pediatrics at UT Southwestern and lead author of the study available online in PLoS One, the Public Library of Science's online journal. "We have provided the first description of a pattern of response within an individual's immune system that is very consistent, very reproducible and very intense."
The immune system consists of two components: the innate system, which provides immediate defense against infection; and the adaptive system, whose memory cells are called into action to fight off subsequent infections.
In this study, researchers extracted ribonucleic acid from a drop of blood and placed it on a special gene chip called a microarray, which probes the entire human genome to determine which genes are turned on or off. They found that in children with invasive staphylococcal infections, the genes involved in the body's innate immune response are overactivated while those associated with the adaptive immune system are suppressed.
"It's a very sophisticated and complex dysregulation of the immune system, but our findings prove that there's consistency in the immune response to the staphylococcus bacterium," Dr. Ardura said. "Now that we know how the immune system responds, the question is whether we can use this to predict patient outcomes or differentiate the sickest patients from the less sick ones. How can we use this knowledge to develop better therapies?"
Researchers used blood samples collected between 2001 and 2005 from 77 children – 53 hospitalized at Children's Medical Center Dallas with invasive S. aureus infections and 24 controls. The control samples were collected from healthy children attending either well-child clinic or undergoing elective surgical procedures. Children with underlying chronic diseases, immunodeficiency, multiple infections, and those who received steroids or other immunomodulatory therapies were excluded from the study.
The children ranged in age from a few months to 15 years and included 43 boys and 34 girls. Those with S. aureus infections – both methicillin-resistant (MRSA) and methicillin-susceptible (MSSA) – were matched with healthy controls for age, sex and race. The researchers also characterized the extent as well as the type of infection in each patient to make sure that the strain of bacteria didn't influence the results.
Dr. Ardura stressed that more research is needed because the results represent a one-time snapshot of what's going on in the cell during an invasive staphylococcal infection.
"The median time to get the blood sample was day four because we wanted to make sure the hospitalized children had a S. aureus infection, and its takes four days to have final identification of the bacterial pathogen," she said.
The next step, Dr. Ardura said, is to study those dynamics in patients before, during and after infection. They also hope to understand better how various staph-infection therapies affect treatment.
"This is a very important proof-of-concept that the information is there for us to grab," Dr. Ardura said. "Now we have to begin to understand what that data tells us."

Big contract a 'special moment' for Belt
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Brandon Belt trimmed his beard in anticipation of a salary arbitration hearing. Now he can let his hair down.
A relieved Belt rejoined the Giants on Thursday, one day after missing the club's first full-squad workout to return from St. Petersburg. Belt arrived there Tuesday night and was spared the anxiety of a hearing when he and the club agreed to a one-year, $2.9 million contract.
It was an instance of delayed gratification for the first baseman, in a sense. A star pitcher at Hudson High School in Lufkin, Texas, Belt was led to believe that the Chicago Cubs would draft him and pay him a seven-figure signing bonus. But the Cubs passed on Belt and Boston selected him in the 11th round, prompting him to attend college.
So when Belt's agent, J.D. Smart, called him in his hotel room to inform him of the agreement, the financial windfall held extra significance. Asked whether there was anything "magical" about the salary figure, Belt said, "It was magical to me. I've been waiting on a phone call like that since I was in high school. It's a pretty special moment for me."
Belt's next contract could be a multi-year deal, a possibility Giants general manager Brian Sabean has raised. Serious negotiations have not yet begun, but Belt would welcome this development.
"I think anybody would be open to a long-term extension, especially with this organization," he said. "It's a first-class organization."

Your basal metabolic rate, or BMR, is the energy your body needs at rest. In other words, it is the amount of energy (measured in calories) used by your body to perform basic functions such as breathing, keeping the heart beating, and maintaining body temperature. The BMR is influenced by several factors including age, gender, weight, dieting, exercise, and environment temperature.
So why should you know your BMR? If you know your BMR, you can determine the total number of calories you would burn on an average day- this is called your active metabolic rate (AMR). Knowing your BMR and AMR can help you plan weight maintenance and safe weight loss or gain. Once you know the total number of calories you burn on an average day, you can adjust your activity level or calories according to your weight goals.
To estimate your BMR and AMR, simply complete the information below and select the activity level from the drop-down menu that applies to you and click on calculate.

The hiring of Harry Caray and the move to become a superstation status spread the gospel of Cubs baseball nationally during the 1980s, helping turn the lovable losers into a lucrative franchise.
For years the Cubs were the only game on TV across the country in the daytime, making them a nationally beloved entity through thick and thin. That in turn helped increase the franchise's value from $20.5 million in 1981 when Tribune Co. bought it to $845 million when the Ricketts family purchased the team, the ballpark and 25 percent of Comcast SportsNet in 2009.
But Cubs Chairman Tom Ricketts is always looking to increase the team's revenue sources, and now it appears likely the team will wave goodbye to their longtime TV home when its contract ends after the 2014 season.
Ricketts declined to address their plans on Sunday, except to say a discussion on rights fees will begin in 2013.
"Obviously local media rights have been increasing in value," he said. "Hopefully at some point we will be able to get more value for our media rights. It's just something that's playing out over time."
Ricketts addressed many issues on Sunday, saying the Cubs aren't planning to add extra night games or signage this season. They are trying to convince the city to relax ordinances that would allow them to make those changes, promising to pay the freight for their $300 million Wrigley Field renovation plan when a deal is completed.
But the question about whether the Cubs will leave WGN moved to the front burner after former TV analyst Bob Brenly said Saturday he was ready to return to the broadcast booth before being informed only two years of his contract would be guaranteed because the WGN deal expires after '14.
The Cubs eventually signed Houston's Jim Deshaies to a four-year deal. Cubs business president Crane Kenney declined to comment about Brenly's remarks.
The Rickettses have shed players, managers, announcers, executives, scouts, even the employee responsible for getting the seventh-inning stretch singers over the last two years. But leaving WGN would mark the end of an era soaked in nostalgia.
The Cubs are a bottom-line team, and have decreased payroll by 25 percent in the first three seasons of the Ricketts family ownership. But Ricketts said: "You're kind of comparing it to Tribune (Co.) payrolls of the last couple years, which, from our standpoint and the team standpoint, were just unsustainable."
Tribune Co. steadily decreased the number of Cubs games on WGN over the years because more money could be made on cable. And now that Tribune Co. no longer owns the team, the Rickettses have no obligation to keep the games on their station.
"We'll find out a lot more over the next 12 months," Ricketts said.
The Cubs have explored having their own network, and a source said they've even filmed interviews with legendary players for future use in network programming. But asked about those plans, Ricketts said, "we're still in the early stages and don't have all the options laid out."
The rights fees are expected to increase significantly after the WGN contract ends, but their deal with Comcast SportsNet runs through 2019. Ricketts said the Cubs have a "great partnership with WGN" and the fact that fans across the country can see them on the superstation will be a "factor" in the decision.
But tradition and fans obviously won't play into the decision as much as money.

Epic Fail: Bulletstorm Flops (But Unreal Lives)
This kind of thing just scares the hell out of me. While Bulletstorm isn't exactly the kind of game I'm going to put on a pedestal and hail as the one true future of electronic entertainment, it was a new franchise, a rare shooter that didn't take itself deathly seriously, a good-looker and a game that at least attempted a few bonus ideas. It did a lot of things right, and it was clearly having a great time in the process. Yet it didn't turn a profit for devs People Can Fly and Epic.
That's according to Epic president Mike Capps, as told to Kotaku – apparently the tongue-in-cheek man-shooter "didn't make money for us." Boo! Why it flopped – let's not mince words – isn't gone into. Increasing mainstream audience unwillingness to try unknown names? Not-quite-rapturous enough reviews? Fox News' moronic, unresearched, knee-jerk war on it? Frankly pretty daft, 80s-esque box art that too many people took seriously? Who knows. But it's a shame. Bulletstorm tried far harder than most big-budget games to purely entertain, and a few years ago I'm quite sure it would have been a huge hit. These are dark times.
Capps softens the blow somewhat by revealing that Epic haven't given up either on People Can Fly or making big, bolshy games. "The next thing we do with People Can Fly will be great."
A highly speculative mind that likes to make leaps of faith without any evidence whatsoever (hullo!) might be inclined to try and link that to a second interview, with Industry Gamers, in which Capps also hinted that Unreal might be due for a little new love in the not-too-distant. "We've been sort of focused on making new properties, which you've seen with Shadow Complex, BulletStorm and Infinity Blade, but sometimes I think just as a businessman that maybe we should be spending some more time with our existing franchises…
"It's been a long time since we shipped an Unreal game, and it's an awfully loved franchise that we hold pretty dear here. We haven't been giving it the attention it deserves."
I would like a new Unreal Tournament, please. And preferably one with completely different art direction to the murky yet excessive UT3.

Charter Discipline: A Tale of Two Students
A demerit for not looking at the teacher after being reminded. A detention for drawing on a desk. An out-of-school suspension for dozing off instead of doing homework. Does penalizing students for a laundry list of common infractions—both minor and more serious—train students to be self-disciplined, or lead some to become disaffected from school?
At one Chicago charter school, the school community's verdict is mixed.
The Noble Network of Charter Schools, which runs 12 schools in Chicago, says its mission is to "prepare low-income students with the scholarship, discipline, and honor necessary to succeed in college and lead exemplary lives, and serve as a catalyst for education reform in Chicago."
Its academic record is impressive: Noble students' average ACT score, 20.7, is more than 3 points higher than the average score for Chicago's regular public schools. But the network has become a flashpoint of national discussion about whether charters should have unfettered ability to create their own disciplinary policies.
On one side of the divide is Ronda Coleman, whose daughter Janell, 17, is a senior at one of the network's schools. She says that the rules create a safe environment, and that parents and students are well aware of what they're signing up for.
But Donna Moore, whose son, Joshua, 17, left the Noble system after repeated disciplinary incidents, sees the same policies as petty and subjective. She says they make it more likely that some students will drop out of school.
Michael Milkie, the superintendent and a co-founder of the Noble charter school system, said he and his wife were inspired to create a school with a stricter code of conduct after teaching in the Chicago school system.
"One of the things we looked to implement right away was a structured, strong discipline code that teaches students proper behavior and allows teachers to teach and students to learn," Mr. Milkie said. At Noble, students receive demerits for certain offenses, including dress-code violations or possessing a permanent marker. Racking up four demerits means serving detention for three hours on Friday and paying a $5 fee.
Mr. Milkie said in general, students get on board with the school's policies.
"Students get an average of 12 detentions freshman year, and only two by senior year," he said.
For Joshua Moore, however, following the rules did not get easier. Mr. Moore now attends Olive Harvey Middle College Campus, an alternative school. He spent two years as a freshman at Gary Comer High School, a Noble charter school, and, in that time, amassed hundreds of detentions—298 during the 2011-12 school year alone—and dozens of suspensions.
Noble employees said they could not comment on the case because of student-privacy concerns.
'I'm Tired'
In his first month at Comer, Mr. Moore received demerits for having his shoes untied and for being less than a minute late to class, according to school records shared by his mother. Later records show him skipping required after-school periods and talking disrespectfully to teachers. Mr. Moore said that he began to feel he couldn't break out of the cycle, and that some of the offenses for which he got demerits made him feel singled out.
"I just stopped caring," he said. "Forget it, I'm tired, I'm not going to make it here."
"I think if I was somewhere else, I might have been on track, in the right grade," he said. Unlike in Chicago's regular public schools, students at Noble schools must meet disciplinary as well as academic and fitness goals to be promoted.
Donna Moore, Joshua Moore's mother, said that spending so much time out of class hurt his self-esteem and motivation.
But Ronda Coleman said Comer's environment was a welcome change from the regular public school Janell's sister had attended, where students' behavior was often "wild." While the rules are strict, Ms. Coleman said, the policies help students develop a sense of self-discipline and direction.
When her daughter received a detention for having a cellphone on school premises, the $5 charge came out of her daughter's babysitting money. "When you don't follow the rules, there's a consequence," Ms. Coleman said.
Ms. Moore said that she had been optimistic about the school at first, but she came to feel school officials' attitude toward her son's difficulties was "if you don't like it, you can move."
Mr. Milkie said that the school prioritizes retaining all students, but that charters should have as much freedom as possible to set their own policies.
"Some kids do leave because of the discipline code, but far more stay because they've learned the self-discipline that carries them through college and career success," he said.
"I actually loved the school," said Mr. Moore. "It was just the rules."

GCH CH Skyscots Texas Hold'Em
(Photo by Annette McDonald)
Our last report from last week comes in from Tulsa OK where the Seminole Kennel Club & the Mid-Continent Kennel Club Of Tulsa set up camp for four days. One little dog made the most of the four days taking three of the available big rosettes home.
The Norwich Terrier, GCH CH Skyscots Texas Hold'Em, roared out of the gate at Friday's SKC show and never looked back. Annemarie Moore would prefer Decker to the German Shorthaired Pointer, Ehrenvogel Say Cheese, the Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen, GCH CH Soletrader Maggie May, the Samoyed, CH Polar Mist Cruz'n T'Party At Zamosky, the Japanese Chin, CH Jaimy From The Olympia Girls, the Tibetan Spaniel, GCH CH Kan Sing's Tenzin, and the Cardigan Welsh Corgi, GCH CH Aubrey's Tails Of Mystery.
Saturday Paula Hartinger might have chosen the Golden Retriever, CH Summit's Sonny Side Up, the Whippet, CH Starline's Oxford Victim Of Love, the above named Sammie, the Pomeranian, CH Bar-Net Rocky Road Of Samron, the Chinese Shar-Pei, GCH CH Jade East Do You Know The Way To San Jose, or Border Collie, GCH CH Borderframe Signature, but she didn't.
Sunday Decker would play Best Man to the Best Dog, the aforementioned Cardigan, Libby. Kimberly Meredith-Cavanna's remaining options were previously seen Golden & Whippet, the Rottweiler, GCH CH Chancellor Flirt's High Flyin' Gladiator, the Shih Tsu, Taimaria's-Baron's Forever Freedom's Finnegan, and the Standard Poodle, GCH CH Dawin's Hot N Spicy.
Libby is the country's Number One Cardigan with two BIS and 24 Herding Group top prizes this year.
Monday Decker would bring it home with his fifth BIS of the year, accepting the win from Fredrick R Stephens while now familiar Whippet, the Sammie, the Tibetan Spaniel, & Cardigan, the Pointer, CH Seasyde Edgehill Heart Of Gold, and the Havanese, GCH CH Yayas Dancing Through Life, all watched. It's Decker's fourth BIS in the last 30 days. Handled by Terrier maven, Brenda Combs, and cheered on by one of the most enthusiastic owners we know, Dr Sharon Esposito, we think DOG2WATCH Decker is destined for great things.

Without a CPC setup you can't use the SF2 anyway. It's not standalone. From memory: You need a power supply between 7 and 11 Volts, and with added IDE hard-disc it should have 2.5 to 3 Ampere. You can download my ROManager for the SF2 to check if the ROM writing works. (Link under FutureOS - The revolutionary UltraOS for the CPC6128 and CPCPlus links section).
Yes, I had exactly the same problem and I think it turned out to be the ground wasn't properly connected/duff on the power supply in the other thread and it was drawing power from the CPC. I also pushed down on the socketed connections at the same time to make sure they hadn't come lose. If you re using the same power supply I've enclosed a picture of mine to show which ground I used in the end. If not, feel free to ignore me [ Invalid Attachment ] I take it you also made sure you haven't disabled the ROM with the switches and the jumper?
Hi Buzby, sorry, got you. Yes symbos should be installed.
No, the jumper on J2(?) just stops all the ROMs being loaded (fortunately after I loaded a corrupt ROM image on so was able to remove it that way).Yeah, when I first hooked mine up I was getting a black screen when it wasn't getting enough power and would boot normally when I removed the cable.This is probably getting a bit beyond my limited expertise (if you could call it that ) but assuming the cable is in the right way up (see earlier picture) I guess the only other thing to rule out is dirt on the edge connector? Have you tried cleaning it with cotton buds and rubbing alcohol? I think beyond that it's probably better for someone who understands this stuff better like Bryce to give you better advice
thanks for all your advise mate it has helped alot. ref the cable i have it exactly as it is on your board, on the cpc side of things looking from the front does cable with the red lead (is this pin 1) does it have to be to the right or to the left ? ie twisting the cable
I think the connection between the edge connector and PCB on Amstrad CPC is not very good, because I checked for continuity every pin in the edge connector and the cable is o.k. It helps switching everything off and moving it a little. OR it is the ground connection, as you point, but with the CPC which happens to be better with the centronics: it has all around it, and in the edge connector is only one pin .....
The Centronics connector generally gives a better connection because of how it's designed, but it DOESN'T use the shield as a Ground. Both the Centronics and Edge connector have 2 ground pins (Pins 2 and 49 of the normal 50 pins), nothing else.

J-Kwon's path to fame included mooning Arista head L.A. Reid and mocking producer Jermaine Dupri. These events helped gain the MC a contract with the latter's So So Def, a subsidiary of the former's employer. However, his life was far more turbulent before that; kicked out his mother's house at the age of 12, he took to the street, dealt crack cocaine, and had his jaw broken after defeating a fellow MC in battle. His label deal helped turn that around. Before turning 18, his debut single, "Tipsy," had reached the Top Ten of just about every singles chart. Overseen by Dupri and produced almost in full by the Track Boyz, J-Kwon's full-length debut -- Hood Hop, released in March of 2004 -- appeared just as the hit was becoming unavoidable, and it went platinum. He was mostly quiet during the next few years, though he appeared on Bow Wow's single "Fresh Azimiz" (a Top 20 R&B/Hip-Hop hit), and returned in early 2009 with Hood Hop 2, an independently released album made available as a digital download. Hood Hop 2.5, released a few months later, was made available in physical form. In 2010 he issued a self-titled album, another independent disc. Three years later he issued "Pushing the Odds," a diss track aimed at Pusha-T and Odd Future. ~ Andy Kellman~ Rovi
