[MBZ] 87 190D 2.5 Turbo
Just arrived home from picking up said car from Philip, who has been storing it for me. Anyway, its really not that bad of a car, especially for $400. The worse part about it, other than the bad tranny, is some bondo areas around the jack points. Its still a jalopy and needs some work to make it less of one, but it does have a pretty nice interior once its cleaned up. Guy swapped in some really good parchment seats (original color was blue) and still needs a few parts to complete it, which I have. Engine starts right up and runs fine. As far as the tranny goes, I almost think its just the converter bolts that fell out. When you rev it up a little, you can hear a little bit of a rattle. Im sure its not going to be that simple but it almost seems like it. Also, when you put it in gear, you can hear the rattle sort of "catch" on something and can feel the car try to move forward a bit. Will give it a try. I think I will probably try to put this car back on the road, if for nothing else, an affordable rare 87 turbo car. -- Kaleb C.

Re: [MBZ] OT - IBM Working to Integrate ALL Med Records
Hello All --- My biggest problem is when an error gets into the system. It might be incredibly difficult to get corrected I suspect. Like credit report errors were before congress passed a law requiring them to investigate error claims. Before that the credit agencies wouldn;t even allow people to *see* thsir own reports - much less look to see if errors exists. That was one of the few times the govt stepped in and made things better for the consumer. As far as giving meds to people - my wife is an RN a a VA hospital. She carries a handheld puter that scans the barcode on the patients name band - to confirm the patient is who he/she is supposed to be (well, the band is right at least), scans the med., and then it confirms the patient is supposed to get med X or Y and hasn't recd that particular dose yet. But that doesn't prevent errors. If you try to remove the person with the intelligence to confirm the proper med is being given erors will occur. Can't 'dumb it down" too much without consequences. Like the old joke about computers making mistakes occur *much* faster than they used to occur. And the thing about the paperless office is a joke. We see much more paper than BC (before computers). But as mentioned - my biggest fear is errors and correcting them. So far I haven't heard anyone explain how errors wll be prevented or corrected. And errors can get as many if not *more* people killed than a lack speed in the ER. Med. personnel can always ask the pat. or his/her companion or perform stopgap care and then wait for them to wake up. And they have ways of networking med records now. If they know which hospital you were treated in previously they can usually get those documents. It seems mst hospitals are owned/managed by only 2 or 3 corporations. The truely critical info is often communicated via wrist/neck bracelets/medallions stating the particular problem such as Diabetes, heart disease, etc. Have a nice Sunday -- (avoid the hospital) hehe LarryT - Original Message - From: To: Sent: Friday, April 17, 2009 10:15 PM Subject: Re: [MBZ] OT - IBM Working to Integrate ALL Med Records There may be nothing that can be done regarding slowing the information age down, I see this as problematic for a lot of folks.?

Re: [MBZ] More windows -- 126 swtich removal?
Following are procedures for removal of 126 center console/switches: 1. Open the ashtray and remove the inner tray by lifting it up and out. 2. This will reveal two small screws securing the ashtray holder to the console. 3. Remove the two screws (use a magnetic bit to prevent dropping them - if you drop one, it's HISTORY, lost forever down in the console innards). 4. Pull the ashtray holder up and out to the right, either unplugging the electrical wire or leaving it dangling out of the way. 5. Pull forward on the small tray in front of the wood panel (between the ashtray and the console) and remove it 6. Use a thin bladed instrument such as a paring knife or plastic-edged wedge tool to pry up the plastic bezel around the gearshift lever - be careful to avoid scratching the wood finish 7. Pull the wood panel forward to free securing tabs at thre rear of the panel from the console houaisng. As you lift the panel up and out with one hand, you will have to use the other to remove (unplug) all the wire connectors from the switches on the panel. There are LOTS of them. You may have to yank hard on some of them. 8. With the wood out of the car, examine the staples securing the black plastic switch armature to the underside of the panel.

However, it isn't a requirement for Windows programming, and is up to the individual programmer to whether or not their application will require the Registry to keep track of items. Many Windows 9x programs utilized individual *.inf or *.ini files to keep track of their items themselves. The new Google browser, Chrome, was written to not only not make use of the Registry, but installs itself directly into the Local Settings directory of the logged in user. This way Chrome never triggers UAC and can be installed on any system even if you don't have admin rights, provided that you have write access to your own directories. So the best answer in this question is: Maybe. *If* the application didn't track itself via Registry, and *if* the application didn't utilize a form of Serial Key installation that is managed in a hidden file or the Registry itself, then yes. You can move the executable and access it directly. However, in these instances you will probably have to edit the local *.ini file to tell the application where it's new home is or it won't be able to find supporting files. Also, some applications are "semi-self aware" and can "heal" themselves so to speak. Ergo, again, if there is not some overriding Serial Key piracy measure in place and you move the executable to the new machine (in fact, as long as the hard drive is attached via USB, you don't even have to move the executable so long as the application knows to now find itself in V:\MYDIR instead of C:\) it will see it isn't in the Registry and attempt to add itself back in. So for all applications you are wanting to use, have the original install disks ready, try to run it, and the app will tell you if it wants to run or not.
