Have you seen the Il2 film "Faith, Hope and Charity" its a classic..

i get an avi called "big bang" ?

Hi, It was'nt the exchange rate, it was the shape of the coins.

thank you snacko that should hopefully

Guys, I need your help. As some of you may know, in September my wife and I went to New York to celebrate our 20th Wedding Aniversary. At that time the Pound to Dollar exchange rate was something like $1.92 to the Pound. So we took advantage and bought some of the kids Christmas presents. One of the things we bought were some Nintendo DS games. We bought "Brain Age" and "Brain Age 2". One of the exercises it has is money and change calculations. I expected to have dollars but not coins. My problem is illustrated by the below image. Could someone tell me what the value of the coins illustraited would be please? Many thanks Friar

Stunning, absolutly stunning.... I would love to say, "thank you kind sir" but you are only stating facts I guess !!!

Becareful Crash, if I remember correctly, Roger (B16enk) telling me once that actual programs on your desktop will take a piece of memory. If you start getting performance issues, watch for that. Cheers. Friar

Following on from my post in the Did you know thread, I was double checking my facts and came across thi story, perhaps Sid, Painless or Fireman would like to comment; The news story was dated October 2007 Yesterday the Burj Dubai Tower, in Dubai UAE, attempted to celebrate its grand opening with the world's longest fireman's pole slide. The 1,885 ft tower, now the world's tallest structure, features a 1,883 ft fireman's pole that runs directly down the center of the building. The Burj pole obliterated the previously held record by more than 1800 ft. The opening ceremony called for a UAE-trained stuntman to negotiate the 1883 feet non-stop to the building's lobby where he would be met with fireworks, candy and cake. At the last minute the stuntman was replaced with a tower construction worker for unknown reasons. The slide, expected to take 40 minutes, would make it into the book of records. After commencing, the inexperienced construction worker quickly reached a speed of 75 mph creating intense frictional heat. Workers on every floor sensed trouble and began dousing the man with water as he screeched by. The heat was too overpowering and soon set the man afire. By the 50th floor he was engulfed in flames. By the 30th floor the man had fallen victim to the heat and flames. By the 20th floor he looked like a comet. And by the time he reached the lobby he was a charred, unrecognizable carcass startling the party goers. "We didn't know the heat would reach that level, the smell was horrific," said a sullen Jimmy Mustafa, a tower representative. "We think he passed away somewhere between the 30th and 25th floors and the poor guy just kept hanging on." Stuntman Tommy Ali noted,"I had a feeling that would happen."

Darth Vader: Luke, I know what you are getting for Christmas Luke: How can you know? Darth Vader: I know what you are getting for Christmas (insert breathing effect here) Luke: That is not possible Darth Vader Darth Vader: I know what you are getting Luke: How, tell me how you know what I am getting for Christmas? Darth Vader: Luke, I have felt your presents

It only works for lights though

I bags the first mod with a gearing upgrade, but pretty cool none the less.

I have only recently turned the "Gore" feature on and for the first time on Thursday was able to see the effect. Unfortunatly, it was on me me, but pretty good. Next time you get PK'd jump to external view and see what a mess your cockpit is!

Hey, that quote works for all the UK Dogz as well! Excellent post JP, thanks for sharing. Welcome to the pound Magpie.

Ahh, Mr Trout, glad to have you swim up our little creek (sorry, that will be the last fish pun I use). My role within the Dogz is to offer someone to talk to when all else fails. I am here with the dogz as representative of the Priory Of St Oleg. A nondenominational organization who's main aim is recuse fallen women, use their skills, retrain them and earn a living off them encourage them to earn their way in life. Should you feel the need to talk to me, being a man of the cloth (well sort of) you can be assured that discretion is a word that can be bought quite cheeply these days (I have had to lower my "fees" due to the Credit Crunch and the fall in the UK Pound / US Dollar exchange rates). I look forward to flying with you soon, and please do not follow the example currently being set by other members of the dogz by taking great delight in shooting me down. Cheers Friar

If its just for emails and she would not mind dial up, google "free dial-up" for the UK. there are lots of companies. She does not need a contract so if its a temporary posting she wont be committed (as she would be be a phone or cable company). All you have to watch is the price per minute for connection. They have peak and off peek rates. Peek rates tend to be around 5 pence (100 to the pound) a minute, off peek about 3p. All you have to do is put the dial up number into the modem. The websites will give setup information. The other option is to "piggyback" a neighbours wireless connection and offer to give a contribution towards the fee.

Last night I attended my daughters Christas Carol concert. The music was great but it was the "God Slot" that brought to mind the prayer I wrote a while back (with a nod to the Lords Prayer). So this morning I dug it out, updated it a bit and have pleasure in posting it again. So when your at the festive table this christmas and perhaps are asked to say "Grace", why not surprise everone but giving them a rendering of the following; High furball, check my five, six and seven, Altitude I must gain. Flyers from around the world will come, Held in a gunsight they will be done. To earth you'll be sent by Rattler and Toad. Excuse us the brief which we should have read. And forgive Jedetieo his lateness to hit fly, As he forgives Greenstreaks that vulches against him. Loose us not Shadow’s Teamspeak, And deliver us a connection with no lag. The sky is our kingdom, Be it death or for glory, Forever BG. Amen.

excellent. just played the spits and mustangs on 3/4 full volume (thats loud!) as am indoors on my own. wow wow wow

Friars Christmas Message Around this time of year, the Priory requires all its Friars to give a seasonal message to their local community. I have been thinking about this for a while before putting pen to paper (so to speak). I thought that it needed a theme, something of a thread that would bind the whole thing together. What theme could I use, that of the continued threat to farmyard animals?, perhaps not. The merits of the X52 over that of the X45 or CH products?, again perhaps not, if there is one thing that could drive a rift amongst a group of men it is “stick envyâ€

my wife had it sent to her in an email

Cleaning Poem I asked the Lord to tell me Why my house is such a mess. He asked if I'd been 'computering', And I had to answer 'yes.' He told me to get off my fanny And tidy up the house. And so I started cleaning up... The smudges off my mouse. I wiped and shined the topside. That really did the trick... I was just admiring my work.. I didn't mean to 'click.' But click, I did, and oops I found A real absorbing site. That I got SO way into it. I was into it all night. Nothing's changed except my mouse It's very, very shiny. I guess my house will stay a mess... While I sit here on my hiney.

I would more than like to welcome Blade to come along to our Dogz nights on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays. He could also fly as part of BG's UB Forum session on saturday. Then, if he likes us and fits in he could join the dogz and if slots are available then be a welcome member of the seow team. Salute Friar

Salue Sir Many happy returns and here's to many more, your are indeed the steady hand that stears the Dogz ship. Regards Friar

you ned the the dot between the time i.e tod 12.00

Jim, It only works for an on line game. It has no effect, for example in the QMB. I just created a dogfight server on my machine, ran up a mission and then went into the consol as GK said and entered tod 03.00 (the ">" is already there) and the screen went black, then did tod 12.00 and it came light again. Hope that sorts it. if your testing the a20 / mossie mission, you will have to try it as an online game. Cheers Colin
