ARK have been around for a while- their 325mm heli was sold for a long time as the MX 450 by Tower Hobbies. They were decent helis, but not updated with time so went by the wayside. I was moderately...
The part from the MX 400 should work.
Good one, dragus. It's a belt drive, so making sure the belt isn't loose is a good idea.
There are only a few reasons for that, John- bad tail servo, tail sticking, gyro orientation reversed, or a bad gyro.
I don't know if it would fit physically (never tried), but it would need re-gearing if it did. The TR gears are 150 tooth, while the MX uses a 138T gear.
The HBK is a good heli (and it is a belt tail). It's smaller than 325s like the TRex and Blade 400, but it flies well with good electronics.
Both links are going to the CF kit.
Ron, you do NOT need another helicopter :).
It may, depending on what gyro system you get. Some of the gyro systems have trainer modes that make it easier to fly, but that limits what you can learn.
And they're great for aerobatics, too.
Both attributes are useful in RC, and especially with helis ;).
Welcome, sarmeneau. I'm still flying mine occasionally, but not nearly as much as before. The parts are the main issue. Last time I was on Tower, the parts selection was getting a little scarce. I've...
A better radio will make a good bit of difference in what you can do with the heli and how well you understand it. It sounds like you're doing ok with the heli, so it could be a good step up for you....
You can't fit packs that would give you any significantly greater flying time in the frame.
Generally about a 2100mAh 3S pack will work, since they're mostly a similar size, but you should look at the physical measurements of a pack you're considering to be sure the new one will physically...
This may be a silly question, but is the belt tensioned? If not, it's not a defect, just typical for "RTF." You do have to check fasteners, verify the pitch and collective, and so forth, even on an...
There's a huge owners' thread on RCG that's still pretty popular.
A lot of K2 folks are on that OTHER forum :). I suspect new guys are getting the K3.
Very common is worn out dampers. Also, slower head speed developing as batteries age- the two are different sides of the same problem.
Fub stilll don't have the array of receiver choices that Spektrum does. They've expanded a lot in the last year, though, especially the smaller stuff.
I don't know the reasons behind that. The antennae on the FASST receivers are on leads about 4" long, so you can position them to avoid shadowing or polarity issues- that could be the reason, too.
For older Spektrum, yes. The Futaba systems resync almost as quickly as a PCM radio.
If you really want a smaller helicopter, then the ESky King 3 is a decent flier and has an active following online. It has a number of options you can add to it.
If you want the most flexibility...
I don't know about the 190- never flew one -but the rate mode on the 401 is as good as most of the inexpensive so-called heading hold gyros :).
Just for a counter point, Dick- I understand what...
Most heli plots adjust the heli to fly the way they want them to :).
With a little experience, you'll fly in the mode that is right for what you're doing. RTFs like the Axe come with only a...

Lenghty Equifax file and possible split file?
My last EQ FICO pull was 616 two weeks ago. My initial goal is over 700 but just to relay progress, my wife is over 700 now and her EQ file is clean.. FINALLY! Mine is still a work in progress so I decided to try and sign up for one of their products to make viewing easier. Well to make a long story short I went all the way to India and back to find out why my order attempts kept failing. Well someone in GA or maybe it was CSC (since im in TX) let me know that my file was way too long after being xfred a ton of times. Alot of soft inquires, disputes, yada yada. So after a lecture on pulling each day and what not I asked her my main question "So I can't order your product because of this?" She said "NO" and If I keep going this way I may be possibly looking at a split file? WTH!!? I searched here but found more things on google about split files and lenghty EQ files. I wanted to still ask on this board if anyone knows of a particular dept at Equifax or CSC to do something about this? I did read something about combining or archiving old stuff so you could start doing pulls again. My wife on her file had to file a complaint to the CFPB and then a CSC paralegal worked with her to delete her items. Im thinking of contacting that lady but im unsure because this may not be the type of stuff she handles.
Any help/advice would be great. Thanks.

Nation from the Bottom Up: Environmental Hygiene and Disease Prevention in Twentieth Century Japan
Alexander Bay, Associate Professor, Department of History, Chapman University
This talk is based on a chapter from Nation from the Bottom Up: Environmental Hygiene and Disease Prevention in Twentieth Century Japan. It examines the history of fecal-oral route and parasite-diseases, and the technology of toilets and waste-management, asking the larger question of how Japan managed, treated and disposed of human effluent across the twentieth century. This study reveals the relationship between humans, their waste, disease, and the environment and gives a historical understanding of the challenges of, as well as the spectrum of possible answers for, enduring public health questions of how best and hygienically to dispose of human waste.

After a week of suspended operations due to a computer glitch, NASA's Mars rover Curiosity is back to investigating the secrets of the Red Planet.
The software glitch, which occurred March 16, caused the rover to suspend examination of powdered-rock samples near the Gale Crater landing site and put itself in precautionary standby, or safe, mode until March 25.
NASA officials have announced that the rover is up and running again and the problems appear to be solved.
"We are back to full science operations," said Jim Erickson, Curiosity's deputy project manager at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. "It's a slow recovery process, but we're back doing science."
It was the second glitch in as many months, though scientists say the latest one won't happen again and is unrelated to a memory issue that corrupted the rover's A-side computer, one of two redundant computers, on Feb. 28. That incident forced scientists to transfer main operations to the rover's backup computer. NASA officials said the backup, or B-side, computer is operating normally, with the A-side now serving as a backup.
Each of the computers can operate the rover's five science cameras, and each of the Curiosity's 12 engineering cameras is linked to one computer or the other. Only pairs linked to the active computer can be used, officials said, but B-side engineering cameras are fully operational after not being used since the trip to Mars last August, which means the $2.5 billion rover can get resume its explorations.
With both glitches resolved, Curiosity has already radioed NASA scientists that bedrock in an area called Yellowknife Bay appears to contain all the necessary chemical ingredients microbial life would need to survive.
Curiosity will operate without direct communication from NASA from April 4 through May 1 due to Mars being directly behind the sun from Earth's perspective. Rather than risk the sun corrupting commands to the rover, Curiosity will operate under preprogrammed commands.
The communications blackout, which will also affect the Opportunity rover and the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, will keep Curiosity from undertaking any major tasks such as drilling for more rock specimens. However, it has already made significant achievements. The rover's analysis of rock samples led scientists to publicly announce that Mars was habitable long ago.

We loved staying at this hotel. Everything was clean and decorated beautifully. All the staff from the front desk to housekeeping were very friendly and helpful. The breakfasts were delicious and the wait staff eager to please each customer. This was the one of the best hotel experiences we've had, and we're in our 60's!

Hotel Golden Tower was excellent in every way. We had two rooms for two nights which suited our family of four very well. The rooms were well appointed, clean, and luxurious. The staff was very accommodating and pro-active in seeing to our needs. The location of the hotel was also ideally situated based on the activities we had planned. I would definitely stay here again.

This hotel is a dump. While they may technically have the facilities for a 5 star rating, in actuality this is a 3 star plus hotel. There is no lobby, no doorman, the restaurant and bar are not staffed and never open, except that a very nice buffet breakfast is served in that space. We were made to wait until the clock struck 3, the official check-in time, despite the fact that the room was ready earlier. Fine, but not 5 star service. In fact, the only service at the hotel is provided by the surly clerks at the front desk, who seem put out by the simplest request. Both evenings of our stay we returned to the hotel after dinner and nobody was minding the store at all. We were told that no laundry service was available during our two night stay because of a holiday. When I complained, magically they provided laundry service. So why did they say "no" originally? The heated towel bar in the bathroom was not hooked up to electricity. They have no washcloths. At our departure, we asked for the clerk to call us a cab while we went to the room to collect our bags. When we came back down, they had not called. Their procedure, we were told, was not to call until the guests are downstairs waiting. We waited an additional 15 minutes for a cab to arrive and were late getting to the airport. If this was listed as a 3 star plus hotel, I would give it a decent review. But 5 star? I think not.

IRVING - John Hattan grew up a Roman Catholic, Rick Carey a Methodist and Chuck Clark a Baptist. They're all atheists now.
Atheists from around the country met at the Atheist Alliance International convention Easter weekend at Harvey Hotel DFW.
The convention attracted national speakers and about 120 attendees, Hattan said.
According to convention polls, no Panhandle residents attended.
Convention topics ranged from the right-to-die movement (euthanasia) to state-church separation battles to a debate on creation and evolution.
"I was a lifelong Catholic until I was about 18 or so, and then I just started looking into the ideas put forth by the Bible and didn't buy them," said Hattan, who lives in Watauga and is co-chairman of Metroplex Atheists.
"There's a lot of stuff at the core that didn't make sense. Especially with Christianity. I mean, you have this great big God who takes a third of himself and made that one-third of himself into a person and put him down on Earth, but then he died - but not really. And because he died - but not really - then we're all going to heaven, unless we don't believe in him, then we don't go to heaven. Just the whole thing had too many lumps in it to make sense for me."
Carey said he has been an atheist since he was a teen-ager, when he was going through the "typical teen-age angst thing."
"My minister told me, 'Read the Bible, read the Bible,' '' said Carey, who lives in Fort Worth. Carey complied, but decided "it just can't be right."
Carey said he started looking at other religions that are mutually exclusive and said he wasn't sure which one to pick.
"So I just kind of decided that they are all wrong," he said.
"Most of them - in fact all of them - have contradicted scientific evidence. Once I settled on (atheism), I decided I was a lot happier with my life."
Clark, who lives in Frisco, said he was studying to be a minister when he became an atheist.
"It was actually the studying of the Bible and its history that convinced me that it was unreliable," Clark said, describing stories in Genesis as legends and myths.
Hattan said his family generally doesn't approve of his nonbeliefs, but "we've learned to respect each other's differences."
Hattan said he and his wife, Shelly, state director of American Atheists Inc., didn't discuss religion much when they dated. He said they became active when they saw numerous local state-church issues that concerned them.
He said reaction varies when people learn he is not a believer in God.
"Some people have no problem with it at all, and some people just get upset with it," he said.
"People who've known us for a long time and then find out, their reaction is always, 'But you guys are so nice. How can you not believe in God? - you're nice.' "
The convention was held Easter weekend because the group got the best hotel rates, John Hattan said. No attempt was made to upset Christians by setting that date, he said.
"Nobody on the planet has a convention on Easter weekend," John Hattan said.
Atheists said they have nothing against religious people and they do celebrate some religious holidays. As for prayer, Shelly Hattan described it as "wishful thinking."
Shelly Hattan said atheists don't agree on all matters of spirituality.
"The unifying issue for atheists is they that reject a belief in a god," Shelly Hattan said.
Convention attendees could buy assorted trinkets, T-shirts ("I'd Tell You To Go To Hell, But I Don't Believe In That Either") and booklets, including one by James A. Young of The Secular Coalition in Valrico, Fla.
The booklet says while Christians believe Christ was Jehovah in the flesh, atheists believe he was "simply a Judaic evangelist idolized by Peter and Paul, or he was a mythical character that never existed."

I am using the Brunelleschi theme and am trying to figure out how to get rid of the words "Posted On".
I still want the date to appear under the title, just without "Posted On".
I also figured out how to disable comments, but the words "Comments Off" still appear in my first post.

A senior Thai Foreign Ministry official said Sunday that Chinese and ASEAN negotiators made progress this weekend toward forging a legally binding code of conduct among claimant states in the South China Sea to ease tensions and prevent territorial and maritime disputes from flaring up.
Permanent Secretary Sihasak Phuangketkaow, speaking to reporters after the two-day meeting in China's eastern city of Suzhou, said, "We have made progress on the COC since we received a commitment from China to move on the talks seriously."
Sihasak said that while differences remain, Chinese and ASEAN leaders are likely to convey their political will to forge the code of conduct when they issue a joint statement after their summit in Brunei next month.
"We agreed to maintain momentum and good environment for the further talks," he said, adding that Thailand will host the next formal consultation early next year.
On their differing approaches to the proposed code of conduct, he said ASEAN sees it as a way to build trust, prevent unexpected incidents and manage incidents when they occur.
China, on the other hand, tends to be pragmatic, considering how it might benefit and assessing how the code might limit its actions in the South China Sea, he said.
China has long maintained that territorial and maritime disputes in the South China Sea, which it claims almost in its entirety, should be resolved bilaterally among claimant states.
But the new government of President Xi Jinping recently opened the door for talks with ASEAN on the proposed code, which it aimed at guiding the behavior of claimant states in the sea, in order to reduce tensions and facilitate a proper settlement of the disputes.
The Association of Southeast Asian Nations groups Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. Four ASEAN members -- Brunei, Malaysia, the Philippines and Vietnam -- have claims in the South China Sea.

From the Publisher
Are you worried about your children's financial future? Then whatever their ages, now is the time to teach them the money skills they will need every day of their lives.
Chairman of the Children's Financial Network, mother of two, and a frequent commentator on national television, Godfrey has designed a unique program for kids -- from those as young as three to those in their teens -- that teaches them how to earn, save, and spend money wisely while it lets parents clearly communicate their family's values. Using age-appropriate exercises and concrete examples, Godfrey shows parents how to deal with a variety of tough situations such as: Your five-year-old wants an allowance. Should he get it if he doesn't do his chores? What and why do you kids need to know about your finances? Your teenage daughter desperately wants a $75.00 pair of designer jeans and there's only money in the budget for a moderately priced pair. Do you give her the money?
For parents who want to teach their kids the value of money and personal values, there's no better guide than Money Doesn't Grow On Trees--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

FanDuel MLB Plays for Tuesday, April 29th
Tuesday's have a bad reputation, or I guess they are somewhat lacking a reputation entirely. Sure, they aren't as bad as Monday's, but being the second least exciting day of the week isn't exactly something to hang your hat on. Luckily for you, a combination of 15 MLB games and variety of guaranteed FanDuel contests can make your "blah Tuesday" a little more eventful. Here are some of the featured tournaments on tap:
MLB Monster — $150,000 Prize Pool: $25,000 1st place
DFBC Qualifier — $14,000+ Prize pool: DFBC Finals Ticket + Trip to Vegas for 1st place
MLB Strikeout — $50,000 Prize Pool: $7,500 1st place
Now, onto the advice that will help you win a piece of that cash!
The ensuing picks should help you construct a winning lineup for this evening. I wrote up some of my favorite players from each position, along with a few "quick hitters" that didn't quite make my top plays list, but I still thought they were worth a mention. Enjoy, and best of luck in all your fantasy baseball contests!
Be sure to double-check the forecast for each game today. Rain may be an issue for several games, so it is definitely something to keep an eye on.
Jose Fernandez (MIA) $10,200: Fernandez is clearly the "ace of the day", at home against an Atlanta team with the propensity to strikeout often. He racked up 14 K's on the Braves one week ago, and he should feel more comfortable pitching at home, where he has a 1.19 ERA (as opposed to 3.50 ERA on the road).
Cole Hamels (PHI) $8,200: Hamels is a very solid pick tonight if you don't want to exhaust your salary cap on the high-priced arm of Jose Fernandez. Hamels will take on a subpar Mets offense that ranks 27th in the league vs left-handed pitching. The "catch" is finding run-support from an anemic Philly's offense. However, Philadelphia is listed as mild favorites tonight, which somewhat alleviates those concerns.
Alex Wood (ATL) $7,700: He has been one of the best breakout pitchers to start the 2014 season, and I don't see any reason for him to slow down against the Marlins tonight. Wood has shown tremendous strikeout upside, recording 8, 7, and 11 K's in his last three games. The 11 strikeout performance came against the same Miami team he will take on tonight. Even though the odds of out-dueling Jose Fernandez to pick up a win are not in his favor, Wood still has plenty of upside in IP and K's this evening.
Buster Posey (SF) $3,900: It's a "Posey Day" today! Any time the young Catcher goes up against a left-hander, you have to consider him. Take into account Eric Stults' .337 wOBA vs right-handed batters, and Posey has all the makings of a favorable scenario that should be reflected in the box score tonight.
Miguel Cabrera (DET) $4,400: I could make a case for Miguel Cabrera pretty much every day, but tonight, against a mediocre left-handed pitcher, in a hitter-friendly park, looks like a great time to climb aboard the "Miggy-train".
Quick Hitter — Mike Napoli (BOS) $3,700: You will see several Red Sox right-handed bats in this article, as I believe it is a viable strategy to pick on the Rays struggling pitcher, Erik Bedard. Napoli has a good chance to bat clean-up tonight, and he's a potent threat for a Boston team that could light up the scoreboard in Fenway.
Dee Gordon (LAD) $3,600: Minnesota pitcher, Kyle Gibson, has had problems with lefties, as his .382 wOBA split is amongst the worst of probable pitchers this evening. Dee Gordon is the perfect kind of contact hitter to take advantage of this, and he possesses great upside in runs and stolen bases.
Quick Hitter – Dustin Pedroia (BOS) $3,500: Red Sox RHB #2. Note what I said about Napoli above, and consider that Pedroia is the best Boston hitter against left-handed pitching.
Pedro Alvarez (PIT) $3,300: Alvarez has been slumping in his past two series. Playing in a hitter-friendly park (Baltimore) against a fairly generous flyball pitcher (Chris Tillman) serves as a prime spot for a bounce-back performance with homerun upside.
Jose Reyes (TOR) $3,300: I'm not seeing a whole lot of reasonably priced shortstop options this evening, so I will defer to Reyes, who's talent level far exceeds his modest price tag. The matchup against Kansas City's Vargas is neutral, but a breakout game is on the horizon for Reyes any day now, and he has some great hitters behind him for added security.
Quick Hitter – Ian Desmond $3,300: Desmond is a shortstop pick I love to target for upside. That definitely holds true tonight, considering his bat is heating up, and he will go up against the shaky pitching of Jared Cosart and the turbulent Astros bullpen.
Charlie Blackmon (COL) $4,300: I debated between listing Blackmon or his teammate Carlos Gonzalez in this nice spot, but I ultimately went with the healthier Blackmon, who is seeing the ball pretty well lately. Opposing pitcher, Michael Bolsinger, had a nice outing vs the Cubs last time around, but navigating this potent Rockies lineup will be a different story, led by the red-hot bat of Charlie Blackmon.
Jacoby Ellsbury (NYY) $4,100: Seattle's Chris Young is a flyball-oriented pitcher playing in the "short-porch" of Yankee Stadium. This may not end well for him. I like Ellsbury as one of the safest Yankee bats to target, but sluggers like Brian McCann, Carlos Beltran, and Kelly Johnson are also in play this evening.
Hunter Pence (SF) $3,900: With a seven game hit streak (four of which were multi-hit), Pence is on a tear right now. He should keep the momentum going against lefty Eric Stults, who I mentioned earlier, is very kind to right-handed batters.
Quick Hitters – Some cheaper bats you should consider for your lineups this evening: Jonny Gomes (BOS) $3,100 is another Red Sox RHB to target, and he always has decent HR upside … Toronto pitcher Dustin McGowan has been struggling lately, and Alex Gordon (KC) $2,800 is the one of the leading candidates from the Royals to give him fits … Gerardo Parra (ARI) $2,500 is starting a mini-hot streak, as displayed by a 3-4, HR game last night, and he has a fantastic matchup against the generous Tyler Chatwood this evening.

Cute Boot
"These boots seem to fit true to size and the same as the rest of the Steven Madden line of boots. They are a soft leather, they do not hold shape when standing in the closet. The fit is cute, but given they are a soft leather they scrunch and slouch a little throughout the day. The are comfy and easy to get on, given the zipper on the back. Great pair of boots."

A review of published research has found no evidence that drugs, herbal products or vitamin supplements help prevent cognitive decline in healthy older adults.
The review, conducted at St. Michaels Hospital in Toronto and published April 15 on the website of the Canadian Medical Association Journal, found some evidence that mental exercises, such as computerized memory training programs, might help.
The issue is of particular importance given that mild cognitive impairment affects 10% to 25% of people older than 70, according to a St. Michaels Hospital news release. Mild cognitive impairment is characterized by reduced memory, judgment and decision-making skills compared to someone of a similar age, but is not enough to interfere with daily activities.
Researchers reviewed 32 randomized clinical trials involving about 25,000 patients. They found no strong evidence for pharmacologic treatments such as cholinesterase inhibitors, which were developed to improve the effectiveness of acetylcholine, a chemical messenger that assists memory, thought and judgment.
Nor was there strong evidence that herbal supplements such as gingko improved cognitive functions, nor was there significant evidence for vitamins and fatty acids such as vitamin B6 or omega-3 fatty acids.
Some studies on estrogen actually indicated an increase in cognitive decline and dementia. Evidence on the value of physical exercise, such as strength training, was weak.
The strongest evidence was for the value of mental exercises such as computerized training programs or intensive one-on-one personal cognitive training in memory, reasoning or speed of processing.

Laycock Things to Do
Visit the abbey.
I didn't; not enough time.
But next time I will.
Apart from the Medieval remains of the abbey itself you can explore the changes made when it was purchased by the Shadlington family and turned into a stately country house.
The abbey has lovely wooded grounds, and part of it is used as the Fox-Talbot museum. Fox-Talbot lived in Lacock Abbey and created the very first photographic negative.
Information about opening times, entrance fees etc on the National Trust website:

The lock-up
The village lock-up dates from the 1700s and is attached to the tithebarn.
It is what it says it is: a place where miscreants (or drunkards) could be locked up and safely kept overnight or until the next set of trials came around.
There's a bench bed and a hole in the corner to act as a toilet.
Most villages had a lock-up, but most are long gone. Lacock, of course, still has its own......though I don't think it is still used!Related to:
- Architecture

St Cyriac's
A lovely church, with some unusual Medieval painted stonework. Unusual because most of the paintwork in our ancient churches (and they were all painted in the past) was removed or painted over in the centuries following the Reformation (when England broke from the Catholic church).
Do take the time to go in, and wander round the exterior as well. There are some excellent Medieval gargoyles outside, as well as Medieval carving, tombs and brasses inside.Related to:

Laycock Restaurants
At the Sign of the Angel: Classic English Food
This is a nice old restaurant (and there's rooms too) which serves very well cooked English food and vegetables. It all takes a long time though and you can't be in a hurry. Delicious and well presented. Quite pricey: a sunday roast entree was about £12-17. Great for a special occasion, and ye olde English charm. They will give smaller portions for children. bring something to do for kids, rather formal atmosphere makes them fidget!
Favorite Dish: I had the roast lamb with mint and lemon stuffing which came with all trimmings, the veg was gorgeous and the lamb perfectly cooked. the citrus cheesecake was all right but the passionfruit sorbet that came with it was my highlight.Related to:

The Red Lion: Restaurant and Hotel
With our stomachs growling on a late Sunday morning we eagerly searched for a place to have brunch. After scowering Chippinham for a suitable place we retired to Lacock and found The Red Lion. One can't miss it as it is one of two hotels in the village. I think the place also doubles as a B&B but apparently everyone else had finished their breakfasts as we were the sole customers.
Found the place to be interesting especially the archiatecture. Low ceilings and dark wood beams held the whole place up. Service was fine and the good was tasty and well prepared.
Favorite Dish: Pretty standard fare, eggs, sausages, toast, etc. Nothing to crow about but pretty traditional.

Laycock Transportation
Mad Max tours from Bath
Lacock is far away from any larger city so that it is difficult to get there by public transport. So a good way to see Lacock together with a couple of other interesting places is Mad Max tours from Bath. The offer consisted of a full day tour for 25.00 pounds, bringing you to Stonehenge, Avebury, Lacock and Castle Combe. The driver was very friendly and rpovided us with background facts about every destination.
The big advantage of this tour was time saving. As all of these destinations are far away from everything, it is impossible to visit all of them within a day depending on public transport only. Unfortunately, there's only one hour for Lacock which makes it impossible to enjoy the streets of the village, do the proposed Lunch break and visit the Talbot museum which seemed to be interesting.Add to your Trip Planner

Thanks for the plugin, it has saved me tons of time. I know I am going a little extreme here, but is there anyway to automate and schedule the upload process.
Example would be that I have a csv file for each day of the week and I want the files to be uploaded each day automatically on a schedule. Is this possible? Maybe in a paid version? If not, maybe someone can point me in the right direction.

The Proteas' bowlers made it difficult for the tourists on Sunday, Dale Steyn claiming three for 33 and Morne Morkel three for 39.
Anwar Ali top scored with 43 not out from 55 balls, which included three straight fours in the 45th over, in Pakistan's total of 218 for nine.
The tourists won the toss and returning captain Misbah-ul-Haq elected to bat first in the opening game of the three-match series, which saw Bilawal Bhatti make his ODI debut for Pakistan at Newlands.
Pakistan openers Nasir Jamshed and Ahmed Shehzad shared a 49-run stand before Jamshed was dismissed for 24 as Steyn returned for his second spell. Jamshed outside-edged the second ball of the over straight to Jacques Kallis at second slip.
But his replacement Mohammad Hafeez did not hang around for too long before also falling victim to Steyn, edging to Hashim Amla at first slip for five.
Sohaib Maqsood was lucky to survive when Imran Tahir dropped a catch 22 overs in, but opener Shehzad was out in the next one after hitting three fours in a a knock of 35. He was caught behind by Quinton de Kock off the bowling of Kallis.
Pakistan suffered a further setback when they lost Misbah for 13, the skipper aiming for fine leg but succeeding in only in edging a Morkel delivery into De Kock's gloves for 13 to leave the visitors 97 for four.
The Proteas were in a good spell and the wickets began to tumble. In the next over De Kock claimed his third catch of the day to see off Umar Akmal for nought, Vernon Philander the bowler this time.
After a short interval for drinks, Maqsood was dropped again - this time by captain AB de Villiers, who only managed to get a finger to it - but Kallis finally claimed his wicket for 22 before Steyn bowled Shahid Afridi (26) in the next consecutive over.
Pakistan were struggling on 133 for seven with 13 overs left.and needed some big hitting to help them record a respectable total.
Number nine Ali produced a flurry of six boundaries in his unbeaten 43, while debutant Bhatti also impressed with two sixes and three fours in a knock of 39 before he was bowled by Morkel - a decision which stood following a review.
Saeed Ajmal was the last wicket to fall, perishing for three to a simple catch taken by JP Duminy in Morkel's last over of the day to leave Pakistan 218 for nine.
The Proteas boasted a strong batting line-up, with Graeme Smith and Kallis back involved.
Test skipper Smith returned to the fold after leaving the recent series between the two teams in the United Arab Emirates with post-concussion syndrome.
All-rounder Kallis last played for South Africa in a 50-over game against New Zealand on February 29, 2012 but has since been rested to manage his workload and he replaced Twenty20 captain Faf du Plessis.

"I urge those who know the truth to leak your information to
the media. Please help us."
The call comes after a series of blunders and the
extraordinary revelation that the GCSB spy agency had
illegally snooped on Dotcom.
Mr Dotcom said he was concerned about meetings between Mr Key
and ministers in his cabinet with US government officials
involved in copyright discussions and a prominent Hollywood
"The recent memory lapses and attempts of obfuscation are
disturbing. I think it would benefit all New Zealanders to
have an independent inquiry for full transparency."
Mr Dotcom said Megaupload - which pulled in 4 per cent of
internet traffic at one stage - was "legitimate ... just like
Youtube or Dropbox".
"The case against us is without merit and we will prevail.
But in the meantime our lives and businesses are destroyed."

Deeplinks Blog posts about NSA Spying
Why won't the Obama administration reveal how many Americans' emails the NSA has collected and reviewed without a warrant?
Since last year, a few members of Congress—led by Senator Ron Wyden—have been trying to get the Obama administration to answer a simple question: how many Americans' phone calls or emails have been and are being collected and read without a warrant under the authority of the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 (FAA)? Unfortunately, no one else in the government seems to want that question answered.
Once again, the federal government is trying its hardest to prevent the courts from determining whether it has broken (or is still breaking) the law through the NSA's wiretapping program.
For nearly four years, the Obama Administration has followed in the Bush administration's footsteps, invoking national security and a variety of procedural hurdles to shield itself from accountability in courts. In three separate lawsuits that have been churning in the federal courts, the government has used a menu of dodges to block the courts from considering the key underlying question — have they been breaking the law and violating the constitution by warrantlessly surveilling American citizens — over and over again.
And now the Obama Administration wants Congress to extend the broader surveillance powers passed by Congress in 2008.
Al-Haramain v. Obama
This morning, the House Judiciary Committee held an important hearing on the FISA Amendments Act (FAA) and the scope of the NSA's warrantless wiretapping program. The FAA, which gutted privacy protections governing the interception international phone calls and e-mail to and from the United States, is set to expire at the end of the year, and Attorney General Eric Holder says it is his "top priority" to see it renewed.
President Obama had promised during his campaign to demand civil liberties protections and privacy safeguards when the FAA came up for renewal, yet his administration is now demanding Congress to renew it with no changes, despite the fact that the FAA allows for dragnet surveillance of Americans' international communications.
This week the House of Representatives is debating CISPA, the dangerous 'cybersecurity' bill that threatens to decimate Internet users' privacy in the name of security. EFF and a wide variety of other groups have been protesting the law's provisions giving companies the power to read users' emails and other communications and hand them to the government without any judicial oversight whatsoever—essentially a giant 'cybersecurity' exception to all existing privacy laws.

Maybe Lucas knows exactly what he's doing once again. Maybe he wants to make a movie that reflects these times. All this generation has to do is turn on the TV and there are plenty of bad guys Saddam Hussein, Osama bin Laden, pop icons on trial and going to jail. A new generation of real villains.
There is a lot of angst among the conservative movement that Lucas' new movie is an attack on the Bush administration, full of hidden left-wing politics. Of course, there is politics in these movies. But the politics is that politics often fails us.
Way back in the '70s, Lucas wasn't promoting an ideology, but a philosophy a belief system at a time when all the conventional institutions (belonging to our parents) were failing us. Just like in the movie.
In a brilliant review of "Sith," A.O. Scott of the New York Times wrote, "Taken together and watched in the order they were made, the films reveal the cyclical nature of history, which seems to repeat itself even as it moves forward. Democracies swell into empires, empires are toppled by revolutions, fathers abandon their sons, and sons find their fathers."
I don't want to shoehorn a sports metaphor in here just for the fun of it. But think of it this way: What if Kevin Costner decided to make a prequel to "Field of Dreams," filling in the back story with a tale of just how Ray Kinsella had a falling out with his father the dark side of the dream. And that's the only movie you saw. No pristine baseball diamond in the middle of a cornfield. No magical appearance by Shoeless Joe. No storybook ending of Ray and his dad playing catch in the twilight. You would have to see the the first movie to complete the story, to capture the hope.
Same with "Star Wars."
When we saw the first movie back in 1977, we didn't have to be told how Vader joined the Dark Side. We lived through it. We saw the dark side played out on the national stage. What we hadn't seen was how it could be vanquished. Lucas showed us that. But after seeing "Revenge of the Sith," our kids won't know that critical redemption. They see a massacre of women and children, and a fiery fight scene that looks like it takes place in the darkest depths of hell. Not a pretty picture of the future.
There is an easy way out of this dilemma. After taking your kids to see "Revenge of the Sith," do what I did. On Thursday night, my daughter and I immediately went home, curled up with a much cheaper bowl of popcorn and watched Episode IV, A New Hope.
I wanted her to see how Darth Vader gets his. I wanted her to experience the hope. And she did. It was very exhilarating for her, and a little teary for both of us.
I hope you do the same thing.

We had the wonderful Birchwood Inn to ourselves for the first week of March when most local inns close. Becca was an attentive host, ensuring tea or coffee was ready whenever we wanted, baking something tasty every afternoon. Her breakfasts were delicious. I could live in the library. We'll be back. Note: the review page wouldn't allow me to select Outstanding or I would have.

Ellen, the Innkeep at Birchwood and her staff are lovely people and very helpful. The big public room is everything one could want in a welcoming cozy place to retire to with a book in hand - or simply wander and see what you pick up.

We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Becca was great. Great food. Great library. Great everything!

We have been coming annually to the Birchwood Inn for 14 years. Ellen, a warm and wonderful cook and host, has become a friend. The location and cozy atmosphere of this B&B simply can't be beat. Ellen's breakfast is outstanding. Don't miss this gem in Lenox.

We always love the Birchwood Inn. Ellen is a gracious hostess and her breakfasts are elaborate works of art and yumminess. Each breakfast includes two freshly made bread and muffins, a marvelous fruit-based appetizer and a delicious main course. The fire places in the rooms and the magnificent library make you never want to leave the inn. It's our favorite place all through the year.

We've been coming to the Birchwood Inn since 2002. We will continue to go. It offers the best breakfast imaginable: every day there are two fresh breads, a marvelous fruit-creation appetizer, and a spectacular entree. The food is always creative, beautiful and incredibly delicious. The inn comes with huge library with a large inviting fireplace. There is enormous variety in the rooms, but if you go upscale you will find spaciousness, another wood burning fireplace, and luxurious bath. If you go with the more economic rooms, you can idle inn the library and at tea-time enjoy home-made cookies. Lenox is the most beautiful town in the Berkshires. Go and pamper yourselves! We could not. think of a better place to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary.

We spent the weekend at the Birchwood Inn for our anniversary. This was our first stay and we would definitely return.

It was a quick getaway and very special.

Stopped on our way to a family reunion in VT. Our fifth visit, and it's just as wonderful each time! Ellen does a beautiful job with the inn, and her breakfasts are fabulous. Quinn and Charlie are no help at all, but ......they are dogs so that's okay! Can't wait to get back. And an added bonus is the great restaurants in Lenox and Nejaime's for wine, cheese and gourmet goodies.

We are looking forward to your sixth visit! Quinn and Charley keep us laughing, and that's not a bad thing!

Defusing the family feud: Steps to repairing strained or broken relationships
An adult child is more likely to walk away from a parent-child relationship than is the parent, who can do little to compel that child back. "If the love and attention of the parent is not something the adult child wants, a parent has relatively little influence beyond the ability to appeal to the relationship," said Coleman, who helps parents learn to communicate with adult children in ways that heal and soothe.
Two people, two views
No two people view any event exactly the same, even within a family. Coleman called this a "separate-reality phenomenon." Differences in perspective depend on things like position in the family, age and relationships with parents or siblings. A parent might view an interaction as "conscientious," while the child sees intrusion and control. "It helps to recognize we see our own lives typically from our own narrow perspectives," he said.
Roles hold steady despite age, warned Dunn, so if a parent and child are strained, most believe the parent should admit errors and break the ice. "I can't tell you how often someone says, 'If he wants to be my father, I assume he'll come forward,'" Dunn said.
Repairing relationships starts with listening. "Take your adult child's complaint seriously and listen for what's true. You don't have to agree with all of it. But be empathic; try not to be defensive or offensive or blame and criticize," said Coleman.
Those desiring reconciliation may have to try more than once, Coleman said.
Sometimes it's not clear why family members don't get along or are overlooked, which may make a situation harder to address. Julie Connor, an Overland Park, Kansas, educator-turned-speaker and author of Dreams to Action Trailblazer's Guide, said at her family's gatherings, certain individuals were sometimes left out of conversations and activities. She once asked why an uncle was ignored. Her mother said she didn't know. When it happened to her fiance, Connor told him he was no longer obligated to attend her family activities.
Connor said she's chosen to love her family within certain boundaries. She can't say whether she or they are responsible for their conflicts. "I simply don't have enough information to make an informed decision about the behaviors of others. I focus on my own behavior and the relationships I can nurture in my life."
Breaking bread
Charles Randall Paul, president of the Foundation for Religious Diplomacy, believes techniques that bring warring nations and religious rivals together can help families with seemingly unresolvable conflicts — including religious, philosophical or lifestyle differences where people "believe they cannot with integrity compromise.
"You can have a respectful and even friendly relationship with someone who is your opponent, your rival. So many think incorrectly that disagreement means it would be impossible or wasteful to engage that person," he said.
Paul admires noted family therapist John Gottman's ability to watch muted videos of couples and predict by looking at certain facial muscle movements whether couples were treating each other with contempt or respect. "Contempt is the death knell for any human relationship," Paul said. "If they feel you disagree with them, that's a different matter — especially if they feel you love and respect them."
Couples who criticize should consider this equation: Every negative remark requires five to 20 positive ones to balance it, said Paul.
In long-term, happy marriages, two-thirds of conflicts are never resolved, but the couple learn to engage about the conflict periodically in ways that convey love and respect while letting the integrity of the disagreement live. Conflicts are not ignored. As with international conflict resolution, Paul said, "We do not try to bring two parties to agree with each other or to avoid the hardest of questions. We get them to engage those questions in a way that relationships of trust are built up."

Re: Unmarried couple buying house
Way to Go. You sound like a responsible guy who really loves his girl, but is not going into anything with his eyes closed. Good for you. Things can get messy when people who are in love just make assumptions about money. Just read some of the forums here about joint vs. authorized users or divorced couples money mistakes. I'm certainly not saying that's you - you sound like you have a very solid relationship - She's lucky to have you - you're considering giving her the benefits of a house that you completely pay for, which is usually reserved for a wife who makes a lifetime committment to you as your mate.
All the best to both of you!
