Beautiful! I miss my old friend "Mackie" every day. Great dogs and as easy going as can be when raised properly. Thank you

Originally cigs were made from only the leaf, the stem was removed first. To lower the tar and nicotine contents the whole leaf, stem and all was "refined" in a pulp refiner and a sheet of "tobacco" paper was produced and chopped for making cigs. The stem turned out to be very bitter in taste. In turn, the tar and nicotine was removed with steam and some chemical addition and stored in tanks. The whole leaf was refined and a sheet of paper made. The tar and nicotine was then sprayed back onto the sheet of paper along with a sweetener. (Sugar, chocolate, honey etc) This was how "light" cigs were produced for a number of years. Not aware of how it's done today, been retired too many years. :)

Beautiful place Erv, makes me miss the old Buckeye State.

You could upgrade Vista to win7 for next to nothing, then it would be eligible for the 10 upgrade.

Looks like you have it set to remind you to restart to update, otherwise it will be ALL automatic, no other choices.
You can make a short cut to access all of the settings on one page, (God mode),


To enter God Mode, “right click” on the desktop, go to “New” and then click on “Folder” from the list.

Rename the folder with this text.
My Own Mode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}
The text before the period ( . ) sign can be changed as you prefer. After renaming the folder, you will see a new icon with the name you specified. Double-clicking that file will lead you to all the available settings.

You can upgrade Vista to win7 pretty cheap, then you can get free upgrade to win10. Vista was not included in the free upgrade.

When you download this, if it loads in Deutsche on your computer, go to "Extras“ -> „Einstellungen“ -> „Sprache“ -> „Anzeigesprache“, to change it to English.

I see all kinds of comments about how awful win10 is and can't help but think it is mostly self inflicted. Well I have found a way to get ALL of the changeable settings on one page and doesn't require you to "figure out" where you need to go make the changes you want to make in this OS.
So here you go....

I really hope this helps a few of you that are so upset.

When you open "file explorer" in w10 there is a complete array of options and menus at the top of the screen to copy, move, delete etc.

Just get the tires and rims that are the same overall diameter and bearing size then add spacers made from tubing or even a stack of flat washers to take care of the spacing issue. Use some imagination!

Hybrid Cottonwood, 7 year growth cycle. Originally planned for paper production, but once the furniture industry found out about them, drove price up to be barely profitable for paper.
Those are test plots for various types of hybrids and trimming techniques to attempt knot reduction for "clear" lumber for cheap furniture.

Holy Mackerel Andy!

A short drive from Dayton, but Yellow Springs and Clifton have many photographic areas. (Old grist mill and a couple of beautiful nature walks)

Google "public law 106-206". Make a copy and keep it with you.

Me too! 8.1 works fine once you get used to using the newer interface. I find it very stable, though there are a lot of updates almost daily.
