Re: PESO A drop of sap
Yes, Larry, that is pretty much the plane I flew in in Viet Nam. This particular model is an Air Force veteran, but otherwise the same as we used. The Air Force was very fond of camo paint jobs. We were mostly concerned about visibility from below, so we didn't use much camo.

Re: Lightroom question
I may not understand the question. But it would seem that if you do an import-from-catalog you will bring in her (changed) files. Or just the changes to the files. If you don’t want to lose your originals in the process, make a duplicate first. The re-import will “overwrite the original but your duplicate should stay as it was. stan On Jun 17, 2014, at 12:51 AM, Larry Colen l...@red4est.com wrote: My friend Candice wanted to try her hand at processing one of my photos in lightroom.

Over-the-horizon OT -- iPhone music playing
Taking the train last evening, I put on my (very good) Sennheiser noise-cancelling headphones, plugged them into my iPhone, and started Beethoven's Violin Concerto (sublime after a very stressful day). Gee, I said to myself halfway through the first movement, this sounds crappy. I tried all of the equalization settings, and found flat was the best, but it still sounded crappy. Were my headphones giving out? I pulled out my MBP and played the same selection via iTunes--it sounded fantastic. It's the iPhone, not the headphones. So my questions are: 1. Is the problem that the music player on the iPhone is crap? Is there a better one? 2. Is the problem that the music files are compressed almost beyond recognition getting transferred from the MBP to the iPhone? Is there any way to circumvent that? 3. Or is the problem that the iPhone has crappy sound circuitry, and I'll just have to live with it?

Fwd: costco
Hello PJ Sir, and all other PDMLer Friends who posted, I was recently in Wallmart, Toronto talking to the Pharmacist, a very knowledgeable person. I had fallen short of my BP medication RAMIPRIL 10 mg (famous brand name Altace) and asked for the cheapest one available. The brand I bought in Bangalore, India, costed me USD 1.20 for 10 capsules. She quoted $ 10 for a strip of 10 for a generic brand here in Canada. Now it is for you folks to decide on the rampant profiteering by drug companies here in North America. Yes or no could be your personal choice, but being a global person I have seen the suffering of poor labourers, daily waged workers and others who just cannot afford costly medicines. Almost every drug is cheaper by one-tenth in India, and I note that India has paved the way for cheaper drugs that the poor of this world deserves. Here is an extract on Ramipril from Wikipedia org.:- The compound was protected by U.S. Patent 5,061,722 which was assigned to the German pharmaceutical company Hoechst AG (since merged into Aventis) on 29 October 1991. The patent was scheduled to expire on 29 October 2008. On 11 September 2007, in an appeal by the Indian company Lupin Ltd., the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit reversed a district court trial verdict and found that Aventis's patent on Ramipril was invalid for obviousness, opening this drug to generic manufacturers. Ramipril is marketed in India under the brand names of Cardace, Zigpril, Ramistar, Zorem, and many others. Regards.

I am no longer too picky, I guess. Try borrowing someone's iPod, see if you like the reproduction better out of one of those. FWIW, A friend of mine says the DAC on the Classics is nowhere near as good as earlier models. As a matter of fact, he has a device which plugs into the 30-pin port and gets a direct digital output which this extra device then converts for ultra-high-fidelity analog independently of the iPod. I think he's nuts, but if he wants to spend $200 on a device to convert output from a $150 device, all power to him. -Charles -- Charles Robinson - charl...@visi.com Minneapolis, MN http://charles.robinsontwins.org http://www.facebook.com/charles.robinson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: not necessarily OT for some ... Mac mini performance with SSD
Yeah, at this point, I don't have need of a second drive in there either. My only point is having to go into the machine twice is twice the opportunity to screw it up. I just figure having someone else clean up my mess will cost me less if I combine all of my mistakes into one operation. On 6/16/2014 10:02 PM, Godfrey DiGiorgi wrote: ifixit.com is great.

The 30-pin (older phone) or lightning jack (newer phones) puts out a line output which would be going through your DAC but not your amplifier... you could get a clue where the problem lies. How about when you handle phone calls using that headphone jack? How do those sound? You might have something gumming up your headphone jack physically, or there might be a problem with the amplifier. I know that in the past I've gotten some really REALLY bad sound when a headphone is not FULLY inserted into the jack - you get something that is mostly monophonic with the L+R signals added up out of phase with each other (or something like that). Can really sound like crap. Make sure (compressed air? toothpick?) that there isn't something keeping your headphone plug from going all the way in. -Charles -- Charles Robinson - charl...@visi.com Minneapolis, MN http://charles.robinsontwins.org http://www.facebook.com/charles.robinson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: Over-the-horizon OT -- iPhone music playing
Mystery solved! Poking around in iTunes on the Mac, I found I had set the equalizer so that it sounded good on trains, planes, and at home with the AC running. After some research, I downloaded the EQ 10 app, and set its equalizer similarly. Zounds! Nice sounds, even here near the AC! Thanks for your input, Charles and Godfrey. I really was helpful.

Re: Time for a new macro purchase--possible duplicate posting, oops
HI Barry - I have an older version of the Tamron - the 90mm f2.8 auto focus - and the DFA Pentax 100mm Macro (non WR). Both are excellent lenses but the biggsest difference I notice is the the Pentax has the quick-shift focus adjustment which makes manually fine tuning focus very quick and easy. With the Tamron I have to both pull the lens focus ring back to put it in manual focus mode *and* disable AF on the body. The two step process if very clunky (would be better to be able to juse disengage AF from the body.) Like I said, I have the film era Tamron lens, maybe the latest versions offer something more like the Pentax quick shift. To me that would be a significant issue. Optically both lenses seem to be excellent, though I bought the Tamron last year to use with film bodies and have not really tested it with a digital body.
