I've never used it, but Pinnacle has their own website, with some downloads, FAQs and Forums that might be of use to you. http://pinnaclesys.com/PublicSite/us/Support/Consumer+Support/?viewDownload=1 The instruction manual and patches for some products are here. If the machine is really old, it might be here: http://avid.custkb.com/avid/app/selfservice/search.jsp?DocId=220193'>http://avid.custkb.com/avid/app/selfservice/search.jsp?DocId=220193 FAQs are here: http://avid.custkb.com/avid/app/selfservice/search.jsp And the other users are on their forums here: http://forums.pinnaclesys.com/forums/default.aspx I'd figure the answer's probably there somewhere. If not, there's customer support info to contact the company.

"Counter with Talupian stratagem on instrument sighting." "I busted him up." "So you're going to beat him?" "Nope." "Oh, then it's going to be a close one." "No." "But you have got a chance?" "Nah." "Are you planning to show up?" "What's the Zakdornian word for 'mismatch?' " " 'Challenge'! We do not whine about the inequities of life. And how you perform in a mismatch is precisely what interests Starfleet. After all---- when one is in the superior position, one is expected to win." "Attention crew of the USS Hathaway -- this is your Captain. I can promise you that two days from now we will have missed a lot of sleep. But with your skill and your stamina, we'll have this old lady ready to fly. I want hourly progress reports from every station." "We don't have a prayer." "Would you care to transfer back to the Enterprise, Mister Crusher?" "No, Sir!" "Remember Wes, the purpose here is to improvise. It's the effort that counts." "I am less than an hour away from a battle simulation, and I must handhold an android?" "The burdens of command." "Worf... when you're out-gunned, out-manned, and out-equipped --what else do you have left?" "Guile." "Join me." "Attempt the routing bypass here! If it works, they will be surprised." "Where'm I gonna get the opti-cable?" "Anywhere." "The test is if a crew will follow where Commander Riker leads. His joviality is the way he creates that loyalty. And I'll match his command style against your statistics anytime." "Commander, it is possible to commit no mistakes -- and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is 'life'". "As the Starfleet observer I am ordering you to withdraw!" "I am the captain of this vessel! Your order is nullified!"

The purpose of a PROPER Christian organization is to serve as the MEANS for one or more ENDS. It is the TOOL for accomplishing a task. All too often, it becomes the END IN ITSELF, and the organization exists to further the organization. twi is a quintessential example of this, but it's hardly alone.

==================== Ok, next movie. "The numbers all go to eleven. Look, right across the board, eleven, eleven, eleven and..." "Oh, I see. And most amps go up to ten?" "Exactly." "Does that mean it's louder? Is it any louder?" "Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten."

..which, of course, disqualified him from guessing, but he could confirm the answer.

Currently? 2 of vpw's original goals still apply: A) to charge the participants for more than the cost of expenses, turning a profit B) to supply people to conform to twi and enforce conformity to twi (not that this one was successful with ALL students. but it was A goal and worked SOME of the time) In addition, there's currently a third reason in effect vpw didn't need: C) to help defray the costs of maintaining underutilized grounds And a 4th reason: D) to give the APPEARANCE, the FACADE, of twi actually doing something other than paper-shuffling and financing cushy lifestyles for the top cadre, the Lords Over God's Heritage.

A corps grad once was talking to me, (AFTER the local leaders had split off from twi), and was telling me about the concept of serving others, charitable works and so on, and expounding on them like this was the first time in his life he'd ever heard of such a thing, and that I'd never heard of them at all. I replied (I was in college at the time) that I had already had several years of experience in a service organization in college, and I'd already put in hundreds of hours of community service if not thousands- adding that if he needed to get some pointers on what works, he could ask me and I'd be glad to fill him in. In other words, the entire time he and the corps were in, the concepts and practice of SERVING OTHERS was foreign, and I learned MUCH more about it in college as extracurricular activities than he did in a paid leadership program. No training in actual leading, no training in serving others. Other than "how to be subservient to twi", did the program ever really cover anything but busy-work, occupying the students' time until they left? The more I think of how deficient and dysfunctional the whole program was, the more impressed I am that anyone came out of it able to help anyone at all, let alone some people surviving with their compassion standing.

If it wasn't the other movie, then I'll guess "Point Break", especially from the last clue. (Not that I saw the movie, but...)

Correct. All those lyrics meant a "lyricist" did the song, which, to some people, would have suggested Bob Dylan. Your turn.

Sounds like a surfer movie. I don't think any of them is THAT famous, and the lines are not so famous, but I'll take a swing and try "Blue Crush", the chick-flick surfer movie.

"I had a job in the great north woods working as a cook for a spell. But I never did like it all that much, and one day the ax just fell. So I drifted down to New Orleans where I happened to be employed workin’ for a while on a fishin’ boat right outside of Delacroix. But all the while I was alone, the past was close behind, I seen a lot of women, but she never escaped my mind, and I just grew" "I lived with them on Montague Street in a basement down the stairs. There was music in the cafes at night and revolution in the air. Then he started into dealing with slaves and something inside of him died. She had to sell everything she owned and froze up inside. And when finally the bottom fell out I became withdrawn. The only thing I knew how to do Was to keep on keepin’ on like a bird that flew." "So now I’m goin’ back again,I got to get to her somehow. All the people we used to know, they're an illusion to me now. Some are mathematicians, some are carpenter's wives. Don't know how it all got started. I don't know what they're doing with their lives. But me, I’m still on the road, headin’ for another joint. We always did feel the same, We just saw it from a different point of view" If someone can answer before I run out of lyrics, I'd appreciate it...

Looks like SOMEONE expected the Spanish Inquisition. (So much for their chief weapon...) Compared to the European witch panics, the handful of people terrorized and/or killed in New England was strictly Amateur Hour. Besides, I figured we all heard about them in school but the ones in Europe tend to be glossed over here. IIRC, there were about 17 victims in Salem in a short time, and thousands across Western and Eastern Europe across decades. To hear the way our history classes cover them, you'd think the numbers were approximately equal.

Now I'm thinking I've never seen this one.

They may be moving them around after 3, 4, 0r 6 months. lcm started that sort of thing when most of the twi'ers left in 1988-1990. Exposure to other Christians might indeed prove eye-opening for these kids. We can wait and pray and see what happens.
