"no smell!"
These are amazing! so nice to have something that actually works and doesn't make your stomach turn due to smell.
"amazed at no smell"
With the bottom entrance and domed shape, keeps the smell of the attract down in side so not to bother people. Flies still follow the stink and get trapped though!
I love these. The none smell is the best part. Great product. Have had several people ask me where I got them from.
"Best fly traps"
I've tried them all, I think. Fly paper, fly predators, bottle traps ... I think these are the most effective by far. I have them auto-shipped monthly so my dairy goats and laying hens have a much more comfortable summer.
"the best"
i have been using these for many years. Simply the best product for the money out there. I fill with water, then squeeze the opened attractant in and then drop that vial in too. For best results,do hang it low to the ground and in the shade.
These traps work really well. I even put one on the back porch during the summer. Word of caution, do not spill the fly juice on you, and do not let your pets anywhere near this stuff. It is super stinky!
"great fly trap, great price"
These things attract and trap flies like nobody's business. The only thing I caution you on is don't have water going full bore when you fill from underneath, you don't want that stink on you!!! They will trap their capacity in no time and you can just toss 'em and not feel guilty about spending too much on a throw away. Great product, I buy several at a time...

cant get enough of this board

About Me Intermediate
Comments about Ronix Vault Wakeboard 2012:
Great board shape cut different on from heel to toe making it way more comfortable and stable on hitting toe side air. Large center fin makes landing flip tricks much easier.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Love It!
By Flap Jack
from Texas
I absolutely love this board! 1st ride I was unimpressed with the assemtrical design. It was very grippy on both sides with good pop, but nothing to write about. Then I took the center fins off. Switchfoot like butta. Breaks loose effortlessly but still enough grip to edge hard for big jumps. Landing with no center fins are even better, probably saved me a hundered faceplants because its loose enough to land sideways. I don't have anything bad to say about it except I wish I had tried one sooner.

Have only used the board once so far, but I'm landing more jumps and tricks than ever before. Old board I used was pretty squirrly...not this one! Hopefully it holds up!

Great board to learn on and progress on
Great all around board
By J Train
from Rockford, IL
Good board. 1st ride was last night. Has good edge control. I can really feel the difference in the toeside edge. Just point the board in it goes on the toeside. Board feels slightly "grippy" compared to my Phoenix. Didn't try and break it loose though. Has effortless pop. Really surprised me on the first pop. Took me out to the flats. Much stiffer board and harder landings than the Phoenix but most of that is on me as I'm use to the softer landings in the flats. Over all great board set up. Looking forward to cleaing up my toeside pop and tricks with this board. Hope its loose enough to break free and ride switch on. Definatly a board you can go right out and ride right away. Dosen't take much time to get the feel of. Good all around board.

Women's Health Care Week
Women's Health Care Week is a weeklong initiative organized by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Office on Women's Health. It takes place May 13 through May 19 and serves to bring together communities, businesses, government, health organizations, and other groups in an effort to promote women's health. The theme for 2012 is "It's Your Time," and the campaign encourages women to make health a top priority in their lives. In honor of the month, SBAI is featuring important women in the field of health care. You can learn more about the initiative at womenshealth.gov.
Jane Roberts
In 2002, the United States government (under the Bush Administration) withdrew $34 million in funding from the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) This meant that the UNFPA would have $34 million less to provide family planning services worldwide. Lois Abraham and Jane Roberts were livid with the United States' decision and began independent email campaigns encouraging Americans to donate to UNFPA. Abraham and Roberts joined efforts to form 34 Million Friends of UNFPA with the goal of finding 34 million people to donate $1 or more to make up for the missing monetary contribution from the United States. Besides raising more than $4 million for UNFPA, 34 Million Friends has spread awareness about the goals of UNFPA and health care for women all around the world. Roberts was the keynote speaker for the 2012 Susan B. Anthony Institute Undergraduate Conference in Gender and Women's Studies at the University of Rochester.
Clara Barton
Clara Barton founded the American Red Cross in 1881, motivated by her experiences tending to wounded soldiers in the American Civil War and helping prepare hospitals for the Franco-Prussian War. Barton began lobbying for support of the American Red Cross in 1873, arguing that it would be of assistance in times of peace as well as in war-time. In 1896, Barton was able to open the first American International Red Cross in Turkey after the Hamidian Massacres. The American Red Cross continues to be active and aids in domestic disaster relief, blood donation and collections, military services, community health education efforts, international relief programs, and other services for those in need.
Robin Lim
Robin Lim, colloquially referred to as "Mother Robin," founded Yayasan Bumi Sehat (Healthy Mother Earth Foundation) after complications in her sister's pregnancy lead to the death of both her sister and the child in 2003. Lim moved to Indonesia to open up a clinic in order to provide midwife services and free prenatal care to low-income women. By public vote on CNN News Network's website, Lim was awarded the CNN Hero of the Year award in 2011 and given $250,000 to continue to work. The Healthy Mother Earth Foundation has help thousands of Indonesian women go through pregnancy and give birth safely.
Margaret Sanger
In 1916, when contraception was illegal in the United States, Margaret Sanger opened the first birth control clinic. She was arrested for passing out information on contraceptives, yet to the authorities' chagrin her court case brought attention and support to Sanger's cause. Sanger formed the American Birth Control League in 1921, which would eventually become the Planned Parenthood Federation of America. She wanted to eliminate unsafe back-alley abortions and allow women to have more control over and more opportunities in their life. Sanger continued to advocate for birth control and formed the National Committee on Federal Legislation for Birth Control in 1929 to aid in lobbying. Sanger is credited with founding the birth control movement.
Eve Ensler
Eve Ensler is widely known as the writer of the The Vagina Monologues. Ensler helped begin the anti-violence movement V-Day in 1998. V-Day's mission calls for the end of violence against women: "rape, incest, battery, genital mutilation and sexual slavery must end now." The movement works raises money through benefit performances of Ensler's play, to advocate for the implementation of educational campaigns and legislation to stop the abuse of women.

I'm interested in the opinions of the people joining right around now. Do you like the game? Do you dislike the game? If you dislike it, why is that?
Also, if you disliked the game and happened to get one of the special promo codes earlier, would you be kind enough to send it my way? I would really appreciate it!
So, thoughts on the game?

This file describes various problems that have been encountered
in compiling, installing and running GNU Emacs.
* `Pid xxx killed due to text modification or page I/O error'
On HP/UX, you can get that error when the Emacs executable is on an NFS
file system. HP/UX responds this way if it tries to swap in a page and
does not get a response from the server within a timeout whose default
value is just ten seconds.
If this happens to you, extend the timeout period.
* `expand-file-name' fails to work on any but the machine you dumped Emacs on.
On Ultrix, if you use any of the functions which look up information
in the passwd database before dumping Emacs (say, by using
expand-file-name in site-init.el), then those functions will not work
in the dumped Emacs on any host but the one Emacs was dumped on.
The solution? Don't use expand-file-name in site-init.el, or in
anything it loads. Yuck - some solution.
I'm not sure why this happens; if you can find out exactly what is
going on, and perhaps find a fix or a workaround, please let us know.
Perhaps the YP functions cache some information, the cache is included
in the dumped Emacs, and is then inaccurate on any other host.
* On some variants of SVR4, Emacs does not work at all with X.
Try defining BROKEN_FIONREAD in your config.h file. If this solves
the problem, please send a bug report to tell us this is needed; be
sure to say exactly what type of machine and system you are using.
* Linking says that the functions insque and remque are undefined.
Change oldXMenu/Makefile by adding insque.o to the variable OBJS.
* Emacs fails to understand most Internet host names, even though
the names work properly with other programs on the same system.
This typically happens on Suns and other systems that use shared
libraries. The cause is that the site has installed a version of the
shared library which uses a name server--but has not installed a
similar version of the unshared library which Emacs uses.
The result is that most programs, using the shared library, work with
the nameserver, but Emacs does not.
The fix is to install an unshared library that corresponds to what you
installed in the shared library, and then relink Emacs.
* On a Sun running SunOS 4.1.1, you get this error message from GNU ld:
/lib/libc.a(_Q_sub.o): Undefined symbol __Q_get_rp_rd referenced from text segment
The problem is in the Sun shared C library, not in GNU ld.
The solution is to install Patch-ID# 100267-03 from Sun.
* Self documentation messages are garbled.
This means that the file `etc/DOC-...' doesn't properly correspond
with the Emacs executable. Redumping Emacs and then installing the
corresponding pair of files should fix the problem.
* Trouble using ptys on AIX.
People often install the pty devices on AIX incorrectly.
Use `smit pty' to reinstall them properly.
* Shell mode on HP/UX gives the message, "`tty`: Ambiguous".
firstname.lastname@example.com says:
The problem is that in your .cshrc you have something that tries to
execute `tty`. If you are not running the shell on a real tty then
tty will print "not a tty". Csh expects one word in some places,
but tty is giving it back 3.
The solution is to add a pair of quotes around `tty` to make it a single
if (`tty` == "/dev/console")
should be changed to:
if ("`tty`" == "/dev/console")
Even better, move things that set up terminal sections out of .cshrc
and into .login.
* Using X Windows, control-shift-leftbutton makes Emacs hang.
Use the shell command `xset bc' to make the old X Menu package work.
* Emacs running under X Windows does not handle mouse clicks.
* `emacs -geometry 80x20' finds a file named `80x20'.
One cause of such problems is having (setq term-file-prefix nil) in
your .emacs file. Another cause is a bad value of EMACSLOADPATH in
the environment.
* Emacs starts in a directory other than the one that is current in the shell.
If the PWD environment variable exists, Emacs uses this variable as
the initial working directory.
Some shells automatically update this variable, while other shells fail
to do so. If you use two such shells in combination, the variable can
end up wrong. This confuses Emacs.
The solution is to put something in the start-up file for the shell
that does not update PWD, to get rid of that environment variable.
For example, in csh, use `unsetenv PWD'.
* Emacs gets error message from linker on Sun.
If the error message says that a symbol such as `f68881_used' or
`ffpa_used' or `start_float' is undefined, this probably indicates
that you have compiled some libraries, such as the X libraries,
with a floating point option other than the default.
It's not terribly hard to make this work with small changes in
crt0.c together with linking with Fcrt1.o, Wcrt1.o or Mcrt1.o.
However, the easiest approach is to build Xlib with the default
floating point option: -fsoft.
* Emacs fails to get default settings from X Windows server.
The X library in X11R4 has a bug; it interchanges the 2nd and 3rd
arguments to XGetDefaults. Define the macro XBACKWARDS in config.h to
tell Emacs to compensate for this.
I don't believe there is any way Emacs can determine for itself
whether this problem is present on a given system.
* Keyboard input gets confused after a beep when using a DECserver
as a concentrator.
This problem seems to be a matter of configuring the DECserver to use
7 bit characters rather than 8 bit characters.
* M-x shell persistently reports "Process shell exited abnormally with code 1".
This happened on Suns as a result of what is said to be a bug in Sunos
version 4.0.x. The only fix was to reboot the machine.
* Programs running under terminal emulator do not recognize `emacs'
terminal type.
The cause of this is a shell startup file that sets the TERMCAP
environment variable. The terminal emulator uses that variable to
provide the information on the special terminal type that Emacs
Rewrite your shell startup file so that it does not change TERMCAP
in such a case. You could use the following conditional which sets
it only if it is undefined.
if ( ! ${?TERMCAP} ) setenv TERMCAP ~/my-termcap-file
Or you could set TERMCAP only when you set TERM--which should not
happen in a non-login shell.
* X Windows doesn't work if DISPLAY uses a hostname.
People have reported kernel bugs in certain systems that cause Emacs
not to work with X Windows if DISPLAY is set using a host name. But
the problem does not occur if DISPLAY is set to `unix:0.0'. I think
the bug has to do with SIGIO or FIONREAD.
You may be able to compensate for the bug by doing (set-input-mode nil nil).
However, that has the disadvantage of turning off interrupts, so that
you are unable to quit out of a Lisp program by typing C-g.
The easy way to do this is to put
(setq x-sigio-bug t)
in your site-init.el file.
* Problem with remote X server on Suns.
On a Sun, running Emacs on one machine with the X server on another
may not work if you have used the unshared system libraries. This
is because the unshared libraries fail to use YP for host name lookup.
As a result, the host name you specify may not be recognized.
* Watch out for .emacs files and EMACSLOADPATH environment vars
These control the actions of Emacs.
~/.emacs is your Emacs init file.
EMACSLOADPATH overrides which directories the function
"load" will search.
If you observe strange problems, check for these and get rid
of them, then try again.
* Shell mode ignores interrupts on Apollo Domain
You may find that M-x shell prints the following message:
Warning: no access to tty; thus no job control in this shell...
This can happen if there are not enough ptys on your system.
Here is how to make more of them.
% cd /dev
% ls pty*
# shows how many pty's you have. I had 8, named pty0 to pty7)
% /etc/crpty 8
# creates eight new pty's
* Fatal signal in the command temacs -l loadup inc dump
This command is the final stage of building Emacs. It is run by the
Makefile in the src subdirectory, or by build.com on VMS.
It has been known to get fatal errors due to insufficient swapping
space available on the machine.
On 68000's, it has also happened because of bugs in the
subroutine `alloca'. Verify that `alloca' works right, even
for large blocks (many pages).
* test-distrib says that the distribution has been clobbered
* or, temacs prints "Command key out of range 0-127"
* or, temacs runs and dumps xemacs, but xemacs totally fails to work.
* or, temacs gets errors dumping xemacs
This can be because the .elc files have been garbled. Do not be
fooled by the fact that most of a .elc file is text: these are
binary files and can contain all 256 byte values.
In particular `shar' cannot be used for transmitting GNU Emacs.
It typically truncates "lines". What appear to be "lines" in
a binary file can of course be of any length. Even once `shar'
itself is made to work correctly, `sh' discards null characters
when unpacking the shell archive.
I have also seen character \177 changed into \377. I do not know
what transfer means caused this problem. Various network
file transfer programs are suspected of clobbering the high bit.
If you have a copy of Emacs that has been damaged in its
nonprinting characters, you can fix them:
1) Record the names of all the .elc files.
2) Delete all the .elc files.
3) Recompile alloc.c with a value of PURESIZE twice as large.
You might as well save the old alloc.o.
4) Remake xemacs. It should work now.
5) Running xemacs, do Meta-x byte-compile-file repeatedly
to recreate all the .elc files that used to exist.
You may need to increase the value of the variable
max-lisp-eval-depth to succeed in running the compiler interpreted
on certain .el files. 400 was sufficient as of last report.
6) Reinstall the old alloc.o (undoing changes to alloc.c if any)
and remake temacs.
7) Remake xemacs. It should work now, with valid .elc files.
* temacs prints "Pure Lisp storage exhausted"
This means that the Lisp code loaded from the .elc and .el
files during temacs -l loadup inc dump took up more
space than was allocated.
This could be caused by
1) adding code to the preloaded Lisp files
2) adding more preloaded files in loadup.el
3) having a site-init.el or site-load.el which loads files.
Note that ANY site-init.el or site-load.el is nonstandard;
if you have received Emacs from some other site
and it contains a site-init.el or site-load.el file, consider
deleting that file.
4) getting the wrong .el or .elc files
(not from the directory you expected).
5) deleting some .elc files that are supposed to exist.
This would cause the source files (.el files) to be
loaded instead. They take up more room, so you lose.
6) a bug in the Emacs distribution which underestimates
the space required.
If the need for more space is legitimate, change the definition
of PURESIZE in puresize.h.
But in some of the cases listed above, this problem is a consequence
of something else that is wrong. Be sure to check and fix the real
* Changes made to .el files do not take effect.
You may have forgotten to recompile them into .elc files.
Then the old .elc files will be loaded, and your changes
will not be seen. To fix this, do M-x byte-recompile-directory
and specify the directory that contains the Lisp files.
Emacs should print a warning when loading a .elc file which is older
than the corresponding .el file.
* The dumped Emacs (xemacs) crashes when run, trying to write pure data.
Two causes have been seen for such problems.
1) On a system where getpagesize is not a system call, it is defined
as a macro. If the definition (in both unexec.c and malloc.c) is wrong,
it can cause problems like this. You might be able to find the correct
value in the man page for a.out (5).
2) Some systems allocate variables declared static among the
initialized variables. Emacs makes all initialized variables in most
of its files pure after dumping, but the variables declared static and
not initialized are not supposed to be pure. On these systems you
may need to add "#define static" to the m- or the s- file.
* Compilation errors on VMS.
You will get warnings when compiling on VMS because there are
variable names longer than 32 (or whatever it is) characters.
This is not an error. Ignore it.
VAX C does not support #if defined(foo). Uses of this construct
were removed, but some may have crept back in. They must be rewritten.
There is a bug in the C compiler which fails to sign extend characters
in conditional expressions. The bug is:
char c = -1, d = 1;
int i;
i = d ? c : d;
The result is i == 255; the fix is to typecast the char in the
conditional expression as an (int). Known occurrences of such
constructs in Emacs have been fixed.
* rmail gets error getting new mail
rmail gets new mail from /usr/spool/mail/$USER using a program
called `movemail'. This program interlocks with /bin/mail using
the protocol defined by /bin/mail.
There are two different protocols in general use. One of them uses
the `flock' system call. The other involves creating a lock file;
`movemail' must be able to write in /usr/spool/mail in order to do
this. You control which one is used by defining, or not defining,
the macro MAIL_USE_FLOCK in config.h or the m- or s- file it includes.
If your system uses the lock file protocol, and fascist restrictions
prevent ordinary users from writing the lock files in /usr/spool/mail,
you may need to make `movemail' setgid to a suitable group such as
`mail'. You can use these commands (as root):
chgrp mail movemail
chmod 2755 movemail
* Emacs won't work with X-windows if the value of DISPLAY is HOSTNAME:0.
* GNUs can't make contact with the specified host for nntp.
Some people have found that Emacs was unable to connect to the local
host by name, as in DISPLAY=prep:0 if you are running on prep, but
could handle DISPLAY=unix:0. Here is what firstname.lastname@example.com said:
Seems as
though gethostbyname was bombing somewhere along the way. Well, we
had just upgrade from SunOS 3.5 (which X11 was built under) to SunOS
4.0.1. Any new X applications which tried to be built with the pre
OS-upgrade libraries had the same problems which Emacs was having.
Missing /etc/resolv.conf for a little while (when one of the libraries
was built?) also might have had a hand in it.
The result of all of this (with some speculation) was that we rebuilt
X and then rebuilt Emacs with the new libraries. Works as it should
now. Hoorah.
If you have already installed the name resolver in the file libresolv.a,
then you need to compile Emacs to use that library. The easiest way to
do this is to add to config.h a definition of LIBS_SYSTEM, LIBS_MACHINE
or LIB_STANDARD which uses -lresolv. Watch out! If you redefine a macro
that is already in use in your configuration to supply some other libraries,
be careful not to lose the others.
Thus, you could start by adding this to config.h:
#define LIBS_SYSTEM -lresolv
Then if this gives you an error for redefining a macro, and you see that
the s- file defines LIBS_SYSTEM as -lfoo -lbar, you could change config.h
again to say this:
#define LIBS_SYSTEM -lresolv -lfoo -lbar
* Emacs spontaneously displays "I-search: " at the bottom of the screen.
This means that Control-S/Control-Q "flow control" is being used.
C-s/C-q flow control is bad for Emacs editors because it takes away
C-s and C-q as user commands. Since editors do not output long streams
of text without user commands, there is no need for a user-issuable
"stop output" command in an editor; therefore, a properly designed
flow control mechanism would transmit all possible input characters
without interference. Designing such a mechanism is easy, for a person
with at least half a brain.
There are three possible reasons why flow control could be taking place:
1) Terminal has not been told to disable flow control
2) Insufficient padding for the terminal in use
3) Some sort of terminal concentrator or line switch is responsible
First of all, many terminals have a set-up mode which controls
whether they generate flow control characters. This must be
set to "no flow control" in order for Emacs to work. Sometimes
there is an escape sequence that the computer can send to turn
flow control off and on. If so, perhaps the termcap `ti' string
should turn flow control off, and the `te' string should turn it on.
Once the terminal has been told "no flow control", you may find it
needs more padding. The amount of padding Emacs sends is controlled
by the termcap entry for the terminal in use, and by the output baud
rate as known by the kernel. The shell command `stty' will print
your output baud rate; `stty' with suitable arguments will set it if
it is wrong. Setting to a higher speed causes increased padding. If
the results are wrong for the correct speed, there is probably a
problem in the termcap entry. You must speak to a local Unix wizard
to fix this. Perhaps you are just using the wrong terminal type.
For terminals that lack a "no flow control" mode, sometimes just
giving lots of padding will prevent actual generation of flow control
codes. You might as well try it.
If you are really unlucky, your terminal is connected to the computer
through a concentrator which sends flow control to the computer, or it
insists on sending flow control itself no matter how much padding you
give it. You are screwed! You should replace the terminal or
concentrator with a properly designed one. In the mean time,
some drastic measures can make Emacs semi-work.
One drastic measure to ignore C-s and C-q, while sending enough
padding that the terminal will not really lose any output. To make
such an adjustment, you need only invoke the function
enable-flow-control-on with a list of terminal types in your own
.emacs file. As arguments, give it the names of one or more terminal
types you use which require flow control adjustments.
Here's an example:
(enable-flow-control-on "vt200" "vt300" "vt101" "vt131")
An even more drastic measure is to make Emacs use flow control.
To do this, evaluate the Lisp expression (set-input-mode nil t).
Emacs will then interpret C-s and C-q as flow control commands. (More
precisely, it will allow the kernel to do so as it usually does.) You
will lose the ability to use them for Emacs commands. Also, as a
consequence of using CBREAK mode, the terminal's Meta-key, if any,
will not work, and C-g will be liable to cause a loss of output which
will produce garbage on the screen. (These problems apply to 4.2BSD;
they may not happen in 4.3 or VMS, and I don't know what would happen
in sysV.) You can use keyboard-translate-table, as shown above,
to map two other input characters (such as C-^ and C-\) into C-s and
C-q, so that you can still search and quote.
I have no intention of ever redesigning the Emacs command set for
the assumption that terminals use C-s/C-q flow control. This
flow control technique is a bad design, and terminals that need
it are bad merchandise and should not be purchased. If you can
get some use out of GNU Emacs on inferior terminals, I am glad,
but I will not make Emacs worse for properly designed systems
for the sake of inferior systems.
* Control-S and Control-Q commands are ignored completely.
For some reason, your system is using brain-damaged C-s/C-q flow
control despite Emacs's attempts to turn it off. Perhaps your
terminal is connected to the computer through a concentrator
that wants to use flow control.
You should first try to tell the concentrator not to use flow control.
If you succeed in this, try making the terminal work without
flow control, as described in the preceding section.
If that line of approach is not successful, map some other characters
into C-s and C-q using keyboard-translate-table. The example above
shows how to do this with C-^ and C-\.
* Control-S and Control-Q commands are ignored completely on a net connection.
Some versions of rlogin (and possibly telnet) do not pass flow
control characters to the remote system to which they connect.
On such systems, emacs on the remote system cannot disable flow
control on the local system.
One way to cure this is to disable flow control on the local host
(the one running rlogin, not the one running rlogind) using the
stty command, before starting the rlogin process. On many systems,
"stty start u stop u" will do this.
Some versions of tcsh will prevent even this from working. One way
around this is to start another shell before starting rlogin, and
issue the stty command to disable flow control from that shell.
* Screen is updated wrong, but only on one kind of terminal.
This could mean that the termcap entry you are using for that
terminal is wrong, or it could mean that Emacs has a bug handing
the combination of features specified for that terminal.
The first step in tracking this down is to record what characters
Emacs is sending to the terminal. Execute the Lisp expression
(open-termscript "./emacs-script") to make Emacs write all
terminal output into the file ~/emacs-script as well; then do
what makes the screen update wrong, and look at the file
and decode the characters using the manual for the terminal.
There are several possibilities:
1) The characters sent are correct, according to the terminal manual.
In this case, there is no obvious bug in Emacs, and most likely you
need more padding, or possibly the terminal manual is wrong.
2) The characters sent are incorrect, due to an obscure aspect
of the terminal behavior not described in an obvious way
by termcap.
This case is hard. It will be necessary to think of a way for
Emacs to distinguish between terminals with this kind of behavior
and other terminals that behave subtly differently but are
classified the same by termcap; or else find an algorithm for
Emacs to use that avoids the difference. Such changes must be
tested on many kinds of terminals.
3) The termcap entry is wrong.
See the file etc/TERMS for information on changes
that are known to be needed in commonly used termcap entries
for certain terminals.
4) The characters sent are incorrect, and clearly cannot be
right for any terminal with the termcap entry you were using.
This is unambiguously an Emacs bug, and can probably be fixed
in termcap.c, tparam.c, term.c, scroll.c, cm.c or dispnew.c.
* Output from Control-V is slow.
On many bit-map terminals, scrolling operations are fairly slow.
Often the termcap entry for the type of terminal in use fails
to inform Emacs of this. The two lines at the bottom of the screen
before a Control-V command are supposed to appear at the top after
the Control-V command. If Emacs thinks scrolling the lines is fast,
it will scroll them to the top of the screen.
If scrolling is slow but Emacs thinks it is fast, the usual reason is
that the termcap entry for the terminal you are using does not
specify any padding time for the `al' and `dl' strings. Emacs
concludes that these operations take only as much time as it takes to
send the commands at whatever line speed you are using. You must
fix the termcap entry to specify, for the `al' and `dl', as much
time as the operations really take.
Currently Emacs thinks in terms of serial lines which send characters
at a fixed rate, so that any operation which takes time for the
terminal to execute must also be padded. With bit-map terminals
operated across networks, often the network provides some sort of
flow control so that padding is never needed no matter how slow
an operation is. You must still specify a padding time if you want
Emacs to realize that the operation takes a long time. This will
cause padding characters to be sent unnecessarily, but they do
not really cost much. They will be transmitted while the scrolling
is happening and then discarded quickly by the terminal.
Most bit-map terminals provide commands for inserting or deleting
multiple lines at once. Define the `AL' and `DL' strings in the
termcap entry to say how to do these things, and you will have
fast output without wasted padding characters. These strings should
each contain a single %-spec saying how to send the number of lines
to be scrolled. These %-specs are like those in the termcap
`cm' string.
You should also define the `IC' and `DC' strings if your terminal
has a command to insert or delete multiple characters. These
take the number of positions to insert or delete as an argument.
A `cs' string to set the scrolling region will reduce the amount
of motion you see on the screen when part of the screen is scrolled.
* Your Delete key sends a Backspace to the terminal, using an AIXterm.
The solution is to include in your .Xdefaults the lines:
*aixterm.Translations: #override <Key>BackSpace: string(0x7f)
aixterm*ttyModes: erase ^?
This makes your Backspace key send DEL (ASCII 127).
* You type Control-H (Backspace) expecting to delete characters.
Put `stty dec' in your .login file and your problems will disappear
after a day or two.
The choice of Backspace for erasure was based on confusion, caused by
the fact that backspacing causes erasure (later, when you type another
character) on most display terminals. But it is a mistake. Deletion
of text is not the same thing as backspacing followed by failure to
overprint. I do not wish to propagate this confusion by conforming
to it.
For this reason, I believe `stty dec' is the right mode to use,
and I have designed Emacs to go with that. If there were a thousand
other control characters, I would define Control-h to delete as well;
but there are not very many other control characters, and I think
that providing the most mnemonic possible Help character is more
important than adapting to people who don't use `stty dec'.
If you are obstinate about confusing buggy overprinting with deletion,
you can redefine Backspace in your .emacs file:
(global-set-key "\b" 'delete-backward-char)
You may then wish to put the function help-command on some
other key. I leave to you the task of deciding which key.
* Editing files through RFS gives spurious "file has changed" warnings.
It is possible that a change in Emacs 18.37 gets around this problem,
but in case not, here is a description of how to fix the RFS bug that
causes it.
There was a serious pair of bugs in the handling of the fsync() system
call in the RFS server.
The first is that the fsync() call is handled as another name for the
close() system call (!!). It appears that fsync() is not used by very
many programs; Emacs version 18 does an fsync() before closing files
to make sure that the bits are on the disk.
This is fixed by the enclosed patch to the RFS server.
The second, more serious problem, is that fsync() is treated as a
non-blocking system call (i.e., it's implemented as a message that
gets sent to the remote system without waiting for a reply). Fsync is
a useful tool for building atomic file transactions. Implementing it
as a non-blocking RPC call (when the local call blocks until the sync
is done) is a bad idea; unfortunately, changing it will break the RFS
protocol. No fix was supplied for this problem.

* Vax C compiler bugs affecting Emacs.
You may get one of these problems compiling Emacs:
foo.c line nnn: compiler error: no table entry for op STASG
foo.c: fatal error in /lib/ccom
These are due to bugs in the C compiler; the code is valid C.
Unfortunately, the bugs are unpredictable: the same construct
may compile properly or trigger one of these bugs, depending
on what else is in the source file being compiled. Even changes
in header files that should not affect the file being compiled
can affect whether the bug happens. In addition, sometimes files
that compile correctly on one machine get this bug on another machine.
As a result, it is hard for me to make sure this bug will not affect
you. I have attempted to find and alter these constructs, but more
can always appear. However, I can tell you how to deal with it if it
should happen. The bug comes from having an indexed reference to an
array of Lisp_Objects, as an argument in a function call:
Lisp_Object *args;
... foo (5, args[i], ...)...
putting the argument into a temporary variable first, as in
Lisp_Object *args;
Lisp_Object tem;
tem = args[i];
... foo (r, tem, ...)...
causes the problem to go away.
The `contents' field of a Lisp vector is an array of Lisp_Objects,
so you may see the problem happening with indexed references to that.
* 68000 C compiler problems
Various 68000 compilers have different problems.
These are some that have been observed.
** Using value of assignment expression on union type loses.
This means that x = y = z; or foo (x = z); does not work
if x is of type Lisp_Object.
** "cannot reclaim" error.
This means that an expression is too complicated. You get the correct
line number in the error message. The code must be rewritten with
simpler expressions.
** XCONS, XSTRING, etc macros produce incorrect code.
If temacs fails to run at all, this may be the cause.
Compile this test program and look at the assembler code:
struct foo { char x; unsigned int y : 24; };
lose (arg)
struct foo arg;
test ((int *) arg.y);
If the code is incorrect, your compiler has this problem.
In the XCONS, etc., macros in lisp.h you must replace (a).u.val with
((a).u.val + coercedummy) where coercedummy is declared as int.
This problem will not happen if the m-...h file for your type
of machine defines NO_UNION_TYPE. That is the recommended setting now.
* C compilers lose on returning unions
I hear that some C compilers cannot handle returning a union type.
Most of the functions in GNU Emacs return type Lisp_Object, which is
defined as a union on some rare architectures.
This problem will not happen if the m-...h file for your type
of machine defines NO_UNION_TYPE.

Mint Condition
The band was featured at the 1986 Minnesota Black Musician Awards program and built a strong core following for itself in a multiple-state area (Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, the Dakotas, and Nebraska) as a result of its dazzling, highly energetic live shows. Mint Condition came to the attention of Minneapolis R&B producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis as a result of a showcase performance in 1989. The band had steady success beginning with the hits "(Breaking My Heart) Pretty Brown Eyes" and "Forever in Your Eyes" from its debut, Meant to Be Mint (1991), and with "Nobody Does It Betta" and "(U Send Me) Swinging" from its second album, From the Mint Factory (1993); the group continued with the platinum success of the single "What Kind of Man Would I Be" from its gold album Definition of a Band (1996).
Approaching the 21st century, Mint Condition were the only high-profile R&B/pop band with a major-label recording contract. In 1999, they released the excellent Life's Aquarium, which was led by the Top Five Billboard R&B single "If You Love Me." However, it would be their last release for a major, even though it was their first Top Ten R&B album. Throughout the early 2000s, their profile wasn't nearly as high, but their core following remained and developed along with a consistently high-quality series of unique independent albums, including Livin' the Luxury Brown (2005), Live from the 9:30 Club (2006), E-Life (2008), 7... (2011), and Music @ the Speed of Life (2012). ~ Ed Hogan

Ain't It Romantic?
I have a nasty little secret to confess. Here it is:
I like opera.
Yes, it's true. I may listen to KMFDM, Pig, Nine Inch Nails and Rammstein while working out, but in my spare time I've been known to watch Tosca, Nabucco and Carmen. This weekend I saw Aida at the New York Metropolitan Opera.
This blog post was inspired by Act III, where the Egyptian general Radames meets his lover, the slave girl Aida, down by the Nile. He's betrothed to marry the Pharoah's daughter the next day, and Aida fears he's coming to tell her he'll never see her again. She stands by the riverside bemoaning the loss of her love, and declares that if she loses him she will throw herself into the river and drown her sorrows permanently.
This is standard opera fare---in the end the hero and heroine both end up dead---but the thing that intrigued me was a story that was told to me by the lawyer sitting next to me. Apparently he was at a performance of Macbeth in which an audience member jumped to his death from a balcony seat during intermission. After an extended intermission (the performance was also being broadcast) the show was ultimately cancelled while police investigated to determine if the death was a suicide or a murder. After a little bit of googling I quickly found the New York Times story about the incident here, as well as a bit about the man who died here.
Hearing about this man's death put the opera into a new light for me. It got me thinking about culture in general and about the romanticization (if that's a word) of suicide. From Anna Karenina and her train to Romeo and Juliet and their poison, we've got people "proving" their love by killing themselves. The wedding ring and the gun are inextricably juxtaposed in drama and in real life. When my patients talk about their girlfriends and I hear the phrase, "I love her to death," I cringe inwardly and want to blurt, "Please don't."

Source Naturals was created in 1982 by C.E.O Ira Goldberg to support each individual's potential to enjoy optimal health. At that time, the kind of nutritional formulations he envisioned - for the maintenance of well-being and the enhancement of life - simply didn't exist. The idea of combining many nutrients, herbs and nutraceuticals in one formulation, though common today, was then a rarity. Source Naturals pioneered the concept with Wellness Formula®, now the industry's #1 immune support product.
Source Naturals subsequently introduced numerous award-winning formulas, recognized for their excellence in independent surveys and nutritional analyses. In addition to Wellness, these award-winners include Life Force Multiple™, Mega-Kid Multiple™, Inflama-Rest™, the Skin Eternal™ line, Higher Mind™, Essential Enzymes™, Male Response™, and more.
Source Naturals' comprehensive Bio-Aligned Formulas™ help bring the power of alignment to your body. When formulating, we evaluate the underlying causes of system imbalances, and then provide targeted nutrition to interdependent body systems. Our line of more than 600 products also includes well-researched, single entity nutrients in their highest quality and most bioavailable forms.
Our nutritional supplements are at the leading edge of today's Wellness Revolution. This transformation in health consciousness also includes new perspectives in diet, lifestyle, emotional and spiritual development, and complementary health care. Source Naturals Strategy for Wellness℠ is to provide education that empowers individuals to take responsibility for their health, rather than relying solely on outside medical authority. The result is people who are more productive and fulfilled, and a world that is stronger and healthier.

From Bradley Manning to Edward Snowden, insider threats are becoming all too commonplace and damaging. The three major types of insider risks involve threats from:
� Malicious insiders, who deliberately steal information or cause damage.
� Exploited insiders, who may be "tricked" by external parties into providing data or passwords they shouldn't.
� Careless insiders, who may simply press the wrong key, accidentally delete or modify critical information or lose devices with sensitive information.
Why should organizations take insider threats seriously? Because the stakes have never been higher, especially given the value enterprises place on intellectual capital and trade secrets.

Preview: Pardus 2009.2 Release Candidate
For those interested, you can download the Pardus 2009.2 release candidate from HERE.
At 915MB, the ISO image is larger for 2009.2, no longer fitting a CD. I tested it on both Virtual and real machines. To be honest, I did very little testing on the virtual machine, for I liked Pardus 2009.2 so much I wanted to get Pardus installed on "proper" media straight away.
Let me start by saying that the Pardus installation is BY FAR the best I have seen in any Linux distro, probably even better than that of some OS you have to pay quite some money for. From the very first screen, it feels pleasant, interesting, informative and thoroughly well put together.
Nice GUI menu to start the installation of Pardus.
Note that this is not a LiveCD, so starting the OS from the installation media is not an option. This is unfortunate, because I very much like how LiveCDs provide a nice testing environment which give the end user invaluable information on how Linux deals with his/her hardware. Having said so, I think it is likely that Pardus will make some LiveCD media available as part of the main release.
Let's start by accepting the GPL License.
The installation starts by presenting us with a GPL acceptance screen. Not many Linux distros include this screen, at least not as clearly, but I think all should. Not only does it do justice to the GPL/GNU nature of Linux, but it also conveys a serious, professional vibe to it.
Did that ISO download work OK?.
One nice feature available before starting the installation is checking the MD5 sum. This is an interesting thing that is also not common. Usually, MD5 sums are provided so you can check before burning a CD that the ISO integrity was not compromised during download/copy. I am pretty sure lots of people don't bother doing that check, though, so I think this is a convenient feature.
YES! The MD5 sum check was successful.
Once the integrity of the installation media has been confirmed, it is time to start the installation. As usual, one of the first steps is to set up the keyboard distribution.
Select your keyboard distribution before the installation starts.
Next, it is time for the time zone configuration. Most Linux distros show a world map and allow you to choose your own time zone. Pardus has a slightly different approach which is also nice and simple.
Time Zone configuration is extremely simple as expected.
Note that the installation provides very simple yet effective navigation through its several screens. You can go back and forth at pretty much any moment. Should you choose to exit, that's also possible at any point in time by clicking the lower left button.
Time to set up a user to start sessions with.
The next step takes us into user administration. As expected, Pardus requires a standard user account to be used by default. Interestingly enough, Pardus provides some very welcome flexibility here, as we are able to set this default account up with or without admin privileges. On the next screen, we will be asked to set the superuser password.
A particularly simple and clear approach to partitioning.
Pardus also provides a simple yet effective screen for setting up/manipulating partitions. Once we complete that step, we get the usual report confirming our choices before the installation actually starts.
Are we happy with our choices?.
As I continued on, the installation wizard kept on surprising me with its top notch quality. I was particularly pleased to see nice informative dialogs, explaining what was being installed at each moment, with a brief description of that particular package. Needless to say, branding and Look&Feel remained consistent and tasty throughout. In fact, this was probably the first time I found an installation process interesting enough to keep my attention. Usually I leave it running as soon as the automatic installation piece starts, but I found this one so appealing I actually stuck around to see what was going on.
The installation process rocks...
Wait a minute, the installation process rocks hard...
All along the installation you get nice and interesting screens like this one.
Done deal!.
I have included just a few screenshots here, hopefully enough to give you a feel of how good this installation wizard actually is. It is truly the best I have seen in Linux, an installation process that certainly doesn't get in the way but helps the end user instead. I believe all major Linux distros should make an effort to adopt such high standards in their installations. Not only do I consider it a must in 2010, but it would also open the doors to many people who are currently feeling intimidated by some complicated installation processes... After all, Linux should be about freedom, so why limit it to skilled users?
After booting up our fresh Pardus installation, we continue to get tasty and beatiful splash and login screens. The KDE implementation is tightly integrated with the Pardus branding, which is apparent throughout the boot up and shutdown processes. This results in a nice solid and professional feel to the whole experience.
The Login screen in Pardus.
After such a pleasant installation, I was curious to see if the same quality levels would be maintained on an actual desktop session. Let's find out.
As we start a session for the first time, we are welcome by a very nice introductory tool called "Kaptan". This application concentrates most of the basic desktop configuration in one spot, making it extremely simple, even for Linux/KDE first timers.
The Kaptan gives us a warm welcome to Pardus!.
The Kaptan is awesome, a tool that should be an example of how to introduce a user to a new operating system or window manager.
Mouse basic settings.
Color themes.
Set up the menu layout.
Choose your favorite wallpaper!
Set up your network connections here.
Package management introduction.
Let's have fun now!
As you can see, Kaptan is a thorough yet easy. Like the wonderful installation wizard, it provides an extremely simple and accessible introduction that should make learning enjoyable.
Pardus KDE Integration and implementation
Consistent with what we have seen so far, the KDE implementation of Pardus is one of the best I have seen. I'd say both Pardus and PCLinuxOS are right up there as the best customizations of the KDE desktop I have tried.
KDE is tightly integrated from the get go.
The panel, the main menu and the overall look&feel are unique compared to other distros. The effort put in place by the Pardus developers definitely paid off.
Like PCLinuxOS 2010, Pardus also provides custom splash screens to all its applications, once again making it all feel tight and consistent.
Most applications sport custom splash screens that convey a consistent branding feel.
The OpenOffice splash screen.
All in all, I personally love the Pardus KDE desktop. I did find some areas that are not 100% polished, but nothing worth discussing.
As you can probably imagine given the size of the Pardus ISO image, the application catalog included is abundant, but I also find it interesting and filled with many great choices.
Pardus includes a rich and powerful set of preinstalled applications.
OpenOffice 3.2, Firefox 3.6.3, Amarok 2.30, Mplayer, GIMP, DigiKam, Blogilo, Ktorrent, Google Gadgets and a long etcetera make up the rich application selection in Pardus. I personally miss Dropbox, which is a bit of a pain to install under KDE, so I very much appreciate when it comes preinstalled. That should not take anything away from the many and great applications preinstalled in Pardus though.
Amarok 2.30 on top of KDE SC 4.4.3.
One element worth mentioning is the extremely simple Firewall GUI interface, which makes it easy and quick to get it up and running.
Can firewall configuration get any easier?.
Most of the system settings can be set up through the KDE system preferences, but I found some other applications which may confuse first timers. For example, there was an application apparently designed for system configuration, but I found that changing the system language with it had no effect, so I had to revert back to the KDE system preferences. Once again, nothing too concerning, I just found it odd.
Nice GUI for lshw command, perfect for those not too command line inclined.
Among other tools, I found a cool graphical interface for the lshw command. It's nothing too fancy, but definitely good for those who may feel intimidated by the command line. The KDE partition tool was also included.
Easily manage your partitions with this powerful tool.
So there you have it, hope this preview provided a nice introduction for what's to come when the final release goes live. When that happens, I will post an update and take more of a review point of view, discussing performance, functionality, hardware compatibility, media support, "bugginess" or lack of it, etc.
Some time ago I compared Ubuntu 10.04 and Windows 7. Back then I stated that Windows 7 made things very simple at the expense of diversity and choice. In other words, everything was intuitive because options were very limited and mostly predefined by developers. I was essentially justifying that Ubuntu's arguably more complicated interface was the result of its great flexibility and freedom. PCLinuxOS 2010, Linux Mint 9 and specially Pardus 2009.2 have demonstrated that a much better job can be done in making the Linux desktop accessible to anyone without compromising its power.
I personally am thoroughly impressed by this release candidate... Can't wait to get my hands on the Final release!
I very much recommend giving Pardus 2009.2 a try when it comes out.
Thanks for reading and have fun!

Thanks for the review !ReplyDelete
Thanks for the review.ReplyDelete
I am going to abandon Windows completely in a few months, so far I aimed for Linux Mint but now Pardus is also on the list. Aaargh....its seems like it is gonna be a hard decision.
Are you planning to do a PCLinuxOS/Mint/Pardus "Best Linux for beginners" showdown or something like that?
although the customized splash screen does give it a tight integration feel... the desktop itself is not customized... should have matched the redish+purpleish theme. the installer does seems amazing. thanks for publishing this review (which is very detailed, loved it) will defiantly try out laterReplyDelete
Thanks all for your kind posts!ReplyDelete
@sebert: I think that's actually a great idea! I will try to put together something like that, but I can already tell you all are extremely good for anybody trying Linux for the first time.
Just be sure not to remove Windows entirely until you are confident with your Linux system. In fact, I'd say you can buy a good 16GB or 32GB USB (a good one, don't buy cheap or you'll regret it; I have ;-) ) and install Linux on it. That way you never have to uninstall Windows, just plug in your USB when you want to use Linux. I use that setup for a couple Linux distros and it works great!
Good Luck.
Pardus is great, without a doubt. BUT..... it lacks the huge software-repositories like Ubuntu and the Ubuntu's (Linux Mint e.o.) have, and that is what keeps Pardus behind.ReplyDelete
@chema martinReplyDelete
Thanks for the advice. Haven't thought of the usb solution yet, I think I will give this it a try.
read this .. interestingReplyDelete
thanks for sharing
i must admit i had never heard of pardus, will try it out on my kde-laptop
Great review, we would like to add your blog on kernel.net . If you are interested please send us a message using our contact form.ReplyDelete
Thanks all for your posts!ReplyDelete
@kernel.net: Of course, I'd be glad! I submitted my request yesterday.
Pardus 2009.2 have a much larger software-repositories than for example the old 2008 version. So I dont that is a problem anymore. But dont forget do add "contrib" for extra programs during the installation process.ReplyDelete
Now it got the most thing anyone can need.
Installing 2009.1 was taking ~30mins. Yesterday I'veReplyDelete
tested 2009.2 final version, it took ~20mins to install on a modern system. I ran into a problem on final version (RC release didn't have that & I'll report if I can reproduce it) while disk partitioning, but it was simply enough to skip that error with custom disk setup (last choice on the GUI).
Pardus repo is growing day-to-day and I am highly recommending it not only to Turk families but also to anybody looking for a candy like system ;)
Nice job Pardus Team!

Last Saturday I went to DC Zinefest and really enjoyed the zines and comics that I bought. I even got a free owl sticker. Overall, the zines were delightful and I'd love to share them and read others. I wish there was a zine library nearby that I could donate to and also peruse. In any case, I may post my zines here to see if people want to trade with me (unless I get involved in the +1 Traveling Trade group in which case I'll just post some).
In addition to great zines, what…Continue

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Full Throttle
I run the 850's because blower drive service recommended them for a 460bbc. I would talk to hampton or bds and get the recommended carb size but I figure two 750's or 800's. If you are buying the carbs new I would suggest you talk to rupert racing. The prices are pretty good and you wont have to spend all that time chasing the tune up. Thats worth a lot by the time you get some used carbs from somone and foul no telling how many plugs and go thru bowl gaskets and a lot of time. I'm pretty cheap and like to do things myself but I dont plan on ever trying to guess on the blower tune up again. On the cam I started with the bds recommendation's. I pasted these from their site.
(The lobe center of the cam will play an important role in determining the performance characteristics of an engine. Wide lobe centers (112 to 114 degrees etc.) will create higher cylinder pressure providing more horsepower with cooler burning fuel such as alcohol and methanol. We have found 110° lobe centers to produce the best overall power on gasoline.
Whatever cam you choose, make sure that it will operate and perform properly in the RPM range required for your application.)
I will also paste the link to the bds recommendation page.
two 850 dp's ?
OK maybe I'm thinking too small. I've got a 406 with AFR stage 2 heads and will swap to a blower cam, unsure of which cam though. What cfm should I be looking for to feed a 6-71 on a 406? It's actually a street car that's went to the track and quickly evolving into a strip machine that's gonna be driven on the street too, if you know what I mean !! I've only got an 8 gallon fuel cell in the trunk so akly's out! ha. Should I be looking for a couple of 650's or 750's? I seen an ad somewhere today a guy had two 750's dyno'd for a blower and never used. He was going to something bigger. opinion? also some blower cam advise as well would be appreciated. I'm also calling Hilborn tomorrow (Monday) to ask about a pump, bypasses, etc to set up the injection. I'll weigh that cost to the carb route and see what that looks like.
|Full Throttle
|I have the enderle linkage on mine which was fairly easy to hook up. It is very adjustable with splined shafts so it doesn't slip. I have 2 ea 850dp on mine which I sent to Rupert racing to build. He is very good with the holleys and nailed my setup the first time. When you have two carbs you build them with smaller idle circuit flow per carb because you are idling with 2 carbs now. He already has a big knowledge base on peoples setups and can probably get your right the first time also. I just sent mine back to him to refresh them since I'm putting this motor back in my car. He saved the build sheet on mine from about 5 years back. I even put the idle screws right back to the same position he had them in after I tried to adjust them. It idled great and ran a 6.30 in the 1/8th.
dominator vs two carbs
I just thought two carbs would be harder to maintain, linkage, tune, etc. I was thinking of being able to step up a big dominator to the same flow or maybe a bit more than two smaller carbs without the hassles of multiples. I did find alsblowers and they have the bid daddy garlits carb covers with a note that says they're coming out with a single dominator carb cover for blowers. I guess the idea isn't so far off if he's playing in it.
|Full Throttle
I have always heard the dominator wasn't a good choice for a street car. Why dont you want 2 carbs.

Hilborn setup
You might want to post that in the parts for sale section. Make it a sale or trade option.
tracing the baseplate
OK guys, like I said....I haven't posted on these before and now I'm feeling a bit dumb. ha ha I'm assuming everyone knows what I take for granted. Stupid I know..I don't have the big Holley yet..still looking for one so can't trace the bottom just yet. Just wanted to get building on the adapter plate. I guess also while I'm on that one..if anyone has a nice gas 1150 or 1250 dominator that they want to trade for a like new Hilborn four hole injection with polished scoop and metering block assembled. lets talk! thanks again for the help guys. headin out to work now.
|Max Keith
gasket for pattern
Yep, here in Iowa, we can get all that stuff at local parts stores, course may have to wait a day or two to get it.
Failing all else, on your template for your adaptor, how about turning the carb upside down, and using paper, trace out the ports and flange pattern onto it, with the old rub the pencil lead over all the edges routine, then do the same with your intake base? and superimpose the two onto one another?
Once you have your basic outlines, you can then clean up the rough edges of your tracings and can transfer them to a stiffer medium like cereal box carboard, for your template.
I know thats old school tech but it still works pretty well.
gasket idea
Thanks ben,
I guess I should have been a bit more specific, my goof. I tend to be a bit impatient, maybe some of you can understand that one!. There is a speed shop downtown that may have a gasket but their not open until Tuesday. If I can get the info today or tomorrow I can do it when I go to work on afternoon shift. Helps kill the time if things get slow at work! Thanks for help though.
|That's a beautiful car. I can't help you directly, but eventually, you'll have to buy a Dominator gasket to mount the carb; why not just pick one up now? Even if they're not in stock, almost any auto parts store should be able to order one for you. I know every chain here in Iowa can get Holley stuff.
Holley Dominator flange pattern
Hi all,
I've browsed a few times but never posted on one of these. I've got a '64 Chevelle with a 406 that's street legal and runs 11.02's on MT street ET's. I've just bought a Hampton 6-71 and want to put a Holley 4500 Dominator 1150 or 1250 on top instead of two smaller carbs. I also have a complete hilborn injection hat and scoop but wanted to keep it somewhat streetable. I've got a full machine shop with CNC mill and lathe to work with to build an adapter plate.... I need the base plate (holes and bolt pattern) dimensions or maybe a full sized scan of a dominator gasket so I can make a hat for the one carb. I can't find the info anywhere on the net and no one around here has anything that big. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can give direct email addy to send the print or scanned file if someone can do this for me. As soon as I figure out how to get a picture of my car under my handle I'll do so. Thanks

I have a question about the Mark Cheng Fett boots:
Do they run big or small?
I measured my foot and it says 10.5 and I have a narrow foot.
Would a MC size 11 fit me or is it too big/wide??
I hate to fork out a big chunk for boots that I don't know if they will fit.

Maybe next year we can try a more widespread tanging contest to see how many we can catch this way.
Most unusual. This subject came up this morning in Sunday school. An older lady, whose brother has kept bees since he was a kid was describing how her brother would start yelling to bring pots when he would see one of his hives swarming. She said it usually worked for him.
bigbearomaha,I'm glad you posted this topic...I'd never heard of "tanging" before.I found the post to be very interesting..and I must admit somewhat entertaining :evil: :-DPaul
bigbearomaha, if you couldn't find much out there, maybe you should look for drumming, rather than tanging. 15 million hits on google is what I would call more than "not much".

Quote:How to make a USB stick for XBMC on ATV internal harddrive with USB installstick
1. http://download.stmlabs.com/atv-images/i...ler.img.gz
2. unpack with betterzip
3. open Terminal
4. type: diskutil list
5. search your usb stick normal it is disk1
6. type: diskutil umountDisk /dev/disk1
7. type: dd if=installer.img of=/dev/disk1
8. wait until get a input prompt, put USB in ATV, power off,on wait
9. time for tricky part, a config file is missing and must be written on linux
10. wait for install failure on ATV, you get a login prompt, login with user/pass ATV
11. type: sudo -s
12. type: cd /
13. echo ubuntu > .distro
14. power off,on wait for a full install, remove USB and wait for XBMC install.
However between steps 6 to 7 I added my own step for changing the directory to my downloads folder so it can find the installer.img without me moving it to the desktop.
My terminal commands are the following.
Quote:diskutil umountDisk /dev/disk1
cd /Users/*my username*/Downloads/
dd if=installer.img of=/dev/disk1
then it sits for about an hour or so until it's finished, once completed it proceeds just fine as it normally should until step 14 where I am told to shut down the Apple TV so I unplug the power cable while keeping my USB Hub plugged in, I plug the power cable back in and it starts back up only to start up with the Apple Logo on the screen and it boots directly into my modded OS X with XBMC installed as if I haven't changed a thing.
I'm just writing it back onto my USB drive so I can try it again and bring up the error I get because in the guide it states to ignore the error but I believe it's not the right error I'm getting. It's the only logical explanation I can think of.
Since I got my Apple TV 1 I have used AtvCloner 0.2 for Lion to clone my 40GB hard drive onto a 320GB hard drive and installed all of that just fine, I then did a factory restore with the new hard drive installed and it restored to 2.0, I then updated it back to 3.0.2 and used the atvusb-creator-1.0.b13 for Mac to make a matchstick and install the launcher along with XBMC, the problem being that audio and video is extremely bad quality and laggy. After some searching I found that Linux will make it run faster as well as opening up the possibility of using a Crystal HD card in the future for full 1080p as well as less strain on the CPU for faster operation and less heat.
But now that I've decided to go the full linux route I can't figure out what to do, I've followed the steps and it's not working like it should be.
Are there any simple ways of doing this over USB if I remove the 320GB and install it manually with my Mac then pop the hard drive back in the Apple TV with it just being able to boot up normally or do I need to install it on the Apple TV over USB?
Also, every time I get to the linux install screen with that error I'm suppose to ignore it all works as it says but after I restart and it boots into OS X the USB drive no longer boots into linux like it did so it's a one shot deal to get it to boot properly, is this a normal step because every time it fails it takes a little over an hour for me to format and make a new installer flash drive to try it again.

Upgrading from MTL 1 to MTL 2
From HaskellWiki
Version 2 of the Monad Transformer Library introduced some incompatibilities relative to version 1. This page provides instructions for upgrading code written for MTL 1 to work with MTL 2.
Many packages written for earlier versions of MTL build unchanged with version 2. Most of the remainder require only small changes to upgrade to it, though that will usually render them incompatible with version 1 without some CPP directives. Here are the fixes for common messages:
Illegal instance declaration for Applicative (State a)
- This usually means that the instance you're defining is now defined in the transformers package. You may wish to check it's the same, so you can just delete it.
Could not deduce (Functor m) from the context (Monad m)
arising from a use of fmap
- This will be a situation where you're using a monad constructed with a transformer as a Functor. You can replace withfmapand the code will build with old and new versions of mtl.liftM
Could not deduce (Functor m) from the context (Monad m)
arising from the superclasses of an instance declaration
- This will be another situation where you're using a monad constructed with a transformer as a Functor. You can replace the withMonad mto make it work with mtl-2, or add aFunctor mconstraint to make it work with old and new versions of mtl.Functor m
Not in scope: data constructor State
- The type is now a type synonym. You could replace theStatedata constructor with theStatefunction.state
Not in scope: runState
- You probably imported , which won't work now thatState(..)is a type synonym. You need to importStateandState. (That will work with old versions of mtl too.)runState
Illegal instance declaration for Myclass (State Foo)
- If you have a matching instance for , you can delete the instance forStateT. Otherwise you need to generalize your instance toState. If that's not possible, you may need to introduce aStateT.newtype

Until early goose season. And the anticipation is killing me. We're actually hunting with a guide this year. We won the hunt at a charity auction and when we called he happened to have opening day still open. It should be a great shoot. I've been shooting skeet at least once a week to get in practice (and improving a lot), practicing my goose calling, and buying way too many hunting toys.
Sept.2 I'm planning on taking my 8 year old nephew out. It'll be just the two of us and I'm really hoping I can get some birds to work, more for him than for me.
So gals, what are your plans? When do your seasons start?
