Very Nice, BG. I have been thinking of doing stained glass someday when I get enough room for a workshop. I did a stained glass hanging lamp kit when I was a kid and liked it. But I was surprised that these cost $1200? Does that include both materials and Helen's labor, or just the materials?

I was watching Gamespot's 2010 Game of the year video a week ago and that is when I heard of a console game called Red Dead Redemption. I am not much of a First Person Shooter gamer, but I love westerns, have read almost all of Louis L'Amour's books and many others. And I would love to be able to play Gamespot's Game of the Year 2010 on a PC someday! Their review of the game here is fantastic. Check it out here, and just jump to 2:00 minutes into the video if you want to skip the other 2010 candidates:

You should give BS a try. The flight model is awesome, and so are all of the helo systems. But you must learn to Trim, Trim, Trim, your stick all the time! Very fun...

Yea, looks great Skypup! I must be a dog because I too noticed those too big black peni on your throttles. LoL What is that last pic? It looks kind of like a collective for a helo? Do you fly BlackShark?

I love snow and am totally jealous!

The main part of the presentation just shows Lifespan to Income. That's all the data it is supposed to show, other than the size of the populations in the sizes of the circles. I'm sure he missed many other important events in history that were causes of the data shown. But I have no clue how he missed Dwarf Wheat?

This is interesting...

I had a 750ml of whiskey confiscated by a Navajo Indian Ranger at a campground on their reservation in Monument Valley, AZ many years ago. I can't imagine that they poured it out. I'm guessing those Indians and your customs guys are having a party!

Yea, I did. I don't remember that guy though... LoL!

Yea, but I'm trying to figure out how to attach my Track Hat clip to it...

I have an Android Incredible and know it inside and out. If you want to get on TS sometime I can go over many of the features and send you a list of my favorite free apps. I'm available pretty much anytime if you let me know...

Ok, this has to be the best Christmas gift ever! My brother went to Europe just before Christmas but didn't get around to sending me this until a few days ago. What a surprise to find this in my mail today.. From now on, if you see Snacko flying any German Aircraft, he will be wearing this!!

If you hold the Shift key down when starting Windows it is supposed to stop programs in the Start menu from starting. I cannot remember if it also stops other programs that are in the registry from starting. Basically programs have two ways of automatically starting when you start Windows. In your Startup menu, or in two places in the registry. For the Startup menu, they have to be in the 'Startup' menu in your All Programs/Startup menu. You can just cut and paste them somewhere else to save them if you want. Then if you change your mine you can put them back. For the Registry, use RegEdit and look at this page for the locations to check. They are called Run and RunOnce. http://forum.thewind...rtup-paths.html Personally, I just change something in the program's folder or program name so Windows cannot find it. Or, you could delete it, but then you wouldn't know what it was if you wanted to put it back. Just change the C:\ in the path to X:\, then if it doesn't fix what you want, change it back. But like Troop said, messing with the registry can be dangerous. But I've done this several times without an issue. Snack

Sounds like we do pretty much the same thing except I just install my games on my Windows drive. I put all my personal files on D & E. I have two 500gb WD Raptors and a 1T drive. I backup all my personal stuff to a external as well..

Hmm... That looks fake to me. His face is black, but his arms are white? His hand is not even black. If you slow it down it kind of looks like it was a cut scene. Funny though, and the music is perfect.

Not sure I understand why you would want to install games on a different partition or drive other than for speed. If you install your OS on one physical disk, and your games on another physical disk, then your game may run a bit faster when it needs to access the disk where the game is installed since it won't be slowed down by whatever Windows may be doing at the moment. But I don't think installing games on a separate drive will stop other problems you may be having will it? If a game installs, and it want's to install files into the Windows; Windows System; or other Windows folders it will find them and do so. So, I'm not sure how this would help. Can you explain? Cheers..

Yea, I vote for The Gipper!

LoL!

I agree it's all sound advice. I would have at least 2 partitions. One for the OS and the other for your personal files. Then, when you make a backup ghost image of C:, and you want to restore it, you won't be overwriting all your personal files back to the date of the ghost You will just be restoring Windows back to a good time when it worked well and was fresh. And don't be afraid to do this. You're a lawyer right? So, you must be kind of smart... So, just do the reading and all the stuff mentioned above and you can do it. Or you can sue somebody if all goes wrong..

I just use the default settings for my pedals. I usually just have the tops of my feet touching the bottom of the pedals because it's more comfortable than keeping your feet fully on them all the time. And I rarely use the pedals for brakes.

Nice!

Or they left the bottom/left of the J off and just spelled TOY. That's really what Christmas is really about now anyhow...
