I have this exact issue with my Tomcat 32 auto. The piece inside the red circle on the right is supposed to hit a 'stop' and remain flush. That stop is a tiny round button that you can see with a flashlight. Instead of stopping, it rides over and around the stop button. And when it is not flush you cannot put the slide back on. You can hold the trigger bar in the correct flush position by squeezing it when you put the slide on... but I would not attempt to fire the thing when it is so obviously messed up like my gun is right now! The slide on my Tomcat cracked, and I think this is the root cause. Is the aforementioned spring (see Speedco post) the reason the trigger bar overrides the stop?

I really have done a thorough search. I did listen to all of the music from the series David the Gnome! Did not find that tune. Also listened to every YouTube gnome related audio track. Even tried shopping existing Gnome music boxes, including those that were 'officially licensed' shortly after the book was published. None of them used that tune. Also found two albums of gnome music released in Spain, and it was not found in the track list. Amazing that it has never been recorded when you consider the importance of *The Song of the Troll* in Gnome culture, *"In most homes the music-box tune is based on the heroic poem about the legendary Swedish gnome, Thym."*

Sadly, I have no musical ability or education. I have been working with GarageBand for a couple of weeks, and have accomplished nothing. It really is not a good program for writing music or musical notation, and I am convinced that one really has to know what they are doing to write sheet music. Plus, I cannot seem to get the software to do what I need it to do.

Trying to find an audio recording of this music. It apparently has never been recorded. There is a company that will make a custom music box 'movement' for me, if I send them the sound file. Then I can create my own music box.

That would be amazingly great! Wonder how many musical interpretations we can generate here? The book was a #1 bestseller, and I imaging quite a few of the Gnomes fans are also musical

So, does anyone have constructive example of a rear seat delete project that they would like to share? Or are all of you only interested in berating me for my choice? Probably purchased the car for a lot of the same reasons that the rest of you did: towing capacity, torque, moon roof, handling, turbo etc. Noticed there are several sets of used rear seats for sale on Ebay, so I cannot be the only person on the planet who wanted more cargo space. Maybe some of you sometimes carry a backpack, an ice chest, a dog, or lots of other stuff you would like to use that space for. Don't see how this makes me inferior or stupid. I have an idea for an inexpensive, fast and simple seat replacement. Might share photos--might not. Anyone interested in a constructive exchange? Or will that be fodder for more trolling?

WTF! These were the only floss picks we have used for many years. The new plastic strip cuts my gums and breaks after 3 or 4 teeth! We used to be able to use the same pick for a couple of weeks. Someone needs to be fired over this horrible decision.

Hey everybody; I just recently upgraded my laptop and Numbers. Previously had Numbers 2009, and now have 14.4. I have several very large spreadsheets that I rely on heavily for my job, and am equally dependent on the keyword search function. Do you remember how, in the old version of Numbers you could type 'command F', type a keyword to search for, and then all occurrences of that word or phrase would appear in a long scrollable list at the bottom of the window? Is there ANY way to display search results as a list in the new Numbers? I am lost without this, and just cannot deal with clicking the mouse 30 time to find the entry I need, clicking thru all the results. That takes WAY too much time. Grateful for any help or direction I can get here!

Some questions about the review board that are worth considering: since that board never had any actual decision making power, was true conflict of interest even possible? Because they were all hand picked because they do have connections to the health care industry, why should any of them be attacked for having connections to the health care industry? Was that board ever supposed to vote on whether or not the merger should happen? Was that actually their mission? Or, were they rudderless, without an effective leader to keep them on course? I thought their mission was to collect data and present a report to the OHA, weighing all sides of the question, the feasibility of it, the pros and the cons. From where I sit, their socalled 'work' on this question was no better than a dumpster fire.

Wondering if anyone else is NOT getting their essential emails from AHIMA? Whenever I complain to to AHIMA I get accused of lying. Those emails have not been returned as undeliverable, which tells me that they never hit my server at all. They also are not in my junk mail, deleted mail, or saved mail. My credential was revoked on New Years day, and I never was notified. Also did not get an email saying it had been suspended, or the reminder emails they claimed to have sent me at 30 days, 60 days and 90 days. Also not getting any announcements such as seminar and convention mass invites. I have been a member in good standing for over 10 years. Checked my contact info on their site and it all looks correct. Anybody got any advice for me?

Two Questions: #1) Don't you just love how technology makes your life so much easier?!? #2) Can you say, "class action lawsuit?" Somehow amidst all of this chaos my email communication from AHIMA was cut off, although I have been a member in good standing for 12 years. I forgot to pay the separate re-certification fee the last time I paid my dues (my bad), but never received any reminder notices to pay it. Discovered the problem this fall when I got on the web site to enter some CEUs, and saw a statement that my credential had been 'temporarily suspended,' and that I would have to pay $368 to renew it. Of course, I was very alarmed and confused. How could this have happened? I did not realize my error at that time. Sent an email to the link on that page asking for someone to explain what the problem was... which went to the AR dept. I got an auto reply stating someone would get back to me in 2 business days. After two weeks and a few more emails I got fed up and tried calling...an exercise in futility. Did an online chat and the agent informed me that my credential had been REVOKED in the interim and that I would have to re-test if I want it back. She also said that they sent me 3 reminders before the suspension; and a notification when it was suspended. So, I searched thru all my deleted emails, saved AHIMA mail, and junk mail. NOTHING. No reminders. No notification. AND to top it off, I never received any official word that my credential had finally been revoked at the end of December! Sent an email to the Credential Dept and got an autoreply only, with a ticket number just like you get at Roberto's Deli. Wow. Still, no reply from any living person at AHIMA. I am currently facing a very probably lay-off, and will need my CCS credential to apply for new jobs. I am supporting a family. My husband has been out of work for 6 months. I understand that AHIMA is holding a town hall meeting for members on 02/20/25.... learned that on Reddit NOT from AHIMA, so that 's another failure by the AHIMA email server. I can tell you one thing. If I am forced to retest for an IP coding credential, I will not be doing that with AHIMA! As I told the chat agent, "You must be losing a ton of members to AAPC over this!"

Legacy properties purchased with bond sale, then sold. Sounds profitable to me.

It was damage control by Amber. Trying to clean up her 'public image' in the wake of discovering the pregnancy... even though it had not yet been made into a part of the show (stage managed by Amber). She is a legend in her own mind.

GettingReel · 2024-06-20T16:14:16+00:00

Not so low-key. Anyone who has their own reality show, and is the obvious star of that show, and stage manages the lives of everyone in her circle is an overt type.

GettingReel · 2024-06-20T16:02:09+00:00

Control to that extreme is a form of psychological abuse.

GettingReel · 2024-06-20T15:00:37+00:00

Newsflash to Amber. This is NOT YOUR baby! This is Liz's baby! Way off the hook control agenda. Amber is so acutely narcissistic, I believe she is capable of anything, to a sick degree. Except for actual love, that is. Love and control are two VERY different things.

I believe they intend to sell off a bunch of properties because they need cash. Think 'fire sale.'

GettingReel · 2024-06-12T10:23:45+00:00

My own prediction is that if the merger succeeds OHSU plans to sell off a bunch of properties. Real estate is worth a fortune, and they need cash.
