THE REFLEX - Duran Duran

The Reflex  (3)

You've gone too far this time
And I'm dancing on the Valentine
I tell you somebody's fooling around
With my chances on the dangerline
I'll cross that bridge when I find it
Another day to make my stand
High time is no time for deciding
If I should find a helping hand

Why don't you use it?	|
Try not to bruise it	|	REFRAIN I
Buy time don't lose it	|

REFRAIN I

The reflex is an only child
He's waiting by the park

The reflex is in charge of finding	|
Treasure in the dark			|
And watching over lucky clover		|	REFRAIN II
Isn't that bizarre?			|
Every little thing the reflex does	|
Leaves me answered with a question mark	|

I'm on a ride and I want to get off
But they won't slow down the roundabout
I sold the Renoir and the TV set
Don't want to be around when this gets out...

REFRAIN I

The reflex is an only child
He's waiting by the park

REFRAIN II

REFRAIN I

The reflex is an only child
He's waiting by the park

REFRAIN II

Oh the reflex what a game
he's hiding all the cards

REFRAIN II

         WinGreek: Fonts for Greek and Hebrew

     WinGreek is a set of fonts and utilities for work
with Ancient Greek and Hebrew in the Microsoft Windows
Environment. Fonts in Classical Greek and Hebrew, in 10
and 12 points, work on a variety of printers (Epson 9
Pin Dot Matrix, Epson 24 Pin Dot Matrix, and HP Laser
Jet Series II and III) and screens (Hercules, EGA, VGA,
SVGA & 8514). Postscript Fonts, to be released soon,
will offer scalable fonts for any printer via Adobe
Type Manager and will support Postscript. These fonts
have been fully tested with Microsoft Windows Write and
Word for Windows, and should work well with any Windows
word processor or indeed any Windows program offering
font selection (e.g. Visual Basic).
     Among the utilities of WinGreek, BETA.EXE allows
easy entering of accents. It has four modes: (1) Off,
(2), English, (3) Greek, and (4) Hebrew. In English
Mode one can enter accents in the ANSI character set
for European languages. In Greek Mode one can easily
enter accents and breathings as well as diaeresis by
simply typing the accent and or breathing after the
vowel. In Hebrew Mode the cursor movement is reversed.
Several macros provided for Word for Windows reduce the
above tasks to one keystroke. The other main utility,
GRKCONV.EXE, converts electronic texts of the Greek and
Hebrew Christian and Jewish Scriptures available from
CCAT (Center For Computer Analsysis of Texts, Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania) to Greek and Hebrew fonts used by
WinGreek. Thus in a matter of seconds one can have any
portion of the Greek and Hebrew Scriptures for display
or printer. Searching and manipulating these texts is
only limited by the Windows software one is running
when importing the texts.
The WinGreek package costs $35.00 US or Cana-
dian or 20 Pounds Sterling if ordered in the U.K. All
queries should be directed to Peter Gentry at the Uni-
sity of Toronto <peter@artsci.utoronto.ca>.

Subject: Three strikes and you're out

  This joke has a little history behind it.

  Back in the 1960's in Chcago there was a radio station (WLS?) with a
very popular disk jockey named Dick Biondi who told this joke on the air
and got fired for it the very same day.


  A newlywed couple who were both avid basebal fans attended a game at
Sox park. They were still on their honeymoon and very affectionate, hugging
and kissing so much that they weren't able to follow the game.
  After a couple of seconds of thought the wife says, "I've got an idea,
honey. You kiss me on the strikes and I'll kiss you on the balls."

Subject: Your Turn

This is another joke I heard from a friend many years ago.  It is however
a translation from an Iranian joke.

                        ---------------------------------

A man goes to a restaurant and orders a chicken dish.  By the time the
food is ready and he is about to eat, the waiter comes back and says, "Sir,
I'm afraid there has been a mistake.  You see, that police officer who is
sitting at the next table is a regular customer of ours and he usually
orders the same dish.  The problem is, this is the last chicken in the
house.  I'm afraid I'll have to take this dish to him and arrange for
another dish for you!"

The guy gets really upset and refuses to give up his food.  The waiter walks
over to the other table and explains the situation to the officer.  A few
minutes later the officer walks over to the man's table and says,  "Listen
and listen good.  That is MY chicken you are about to eat and I'll warn you,
whatever you do to that chicken I'll do the same to you.  You pull out one
of its legs, I'll pull out one of yours.  You break one of its wings, I'll
break one of your arms!"

The man calmly looks at the chicken, then sticks his middle finger in the
bird's rectum, pulls it out and licks it.  He then gets up, drops his pants,
bends over and says, "Your turn!!"

Den kserw gia sas, emena mou arese tromera!

A Sunday School teacher of pre-schoolers was concerned that his
students might be a little confused about Jesus Christ because of
the Christmas season emphasis on His birth.  He wanted to make
sure they understood that the birth of Jesus occurred a long time
ago, that He grew up, etc.
So he asked his class, "Where is Jesus today ?"
Johnny raised his hand and said, "He's in heaven."
Mary was called on and answered, "He's in my heart."
and Robert, waving his hand furiously, blurted out, "I know! I know!
He's in our bathroom!!!"
Ths whole class got very quiet, looked at the teacher, and waited
for a response.
The teacher was completely at a loss for a few very long seconds.
He finally gathered his wits and asked Robert how he knew this.
and Robert said, "Well.....every morning my father gets up, bangs
on the bathroom door, and yells 'Jesus Christ, are you still in there?'!"

Subject:      funny rscs problems

I have been seeing some funny things going on with RSCS the last couple
of days. On Thurs. I got a call from my operations staff that RSCS had
dropped all of its connections. I logged onto RSCS and found it non-
responsive. I could press any key and nothing would happen. I could not
even PA1 out of GCS into CP. I finally had to force it and start it
backup up. This did work. Then again on Saturday the same thing happened.


I was wondering if anyone else has seen something like this with their
GCS machines or their RSCS machines. I am running ESA 1.1 base level.


If you would like more info, which I have very little at this time,
you can e-mail me at SYSJJH AT NMSUVM1.

Since there isn't a BOOKMGR-L, I'll pass this along as an FYI for using
BookManager.  We're installing the VM/ESA documentation via BOOKMGR now
that a version is available where the user machine can be ESA-mode.

One may have multiple repository minidisks where the actual books are
stored.  When a minidisk in this list becomes full, the software is
supposed to move its efforts to another disk in the list.

Currently, the following logic is used:

Do I = 1 To MaxDisks
   If Disk(i) < 95% full
   Then Begin
      TryThisDisk
      If UnableToReceive
      Then NotifyUser - Unable to receive book
   End
End

This means if the disk is < 95% full and the RECEIVE command fails,
the software does not switch to the next disk in the series as it would
had the disk been detected as > 95%.

The IBM Support Center does not see this as a bug but as a customer suggestion
as the error detecting and disk-switching is seen as "too complex".  I've
faxed them a simple example showing otherwise.

In the meantime, their suggestion is to go to any repository mdisk < 95%
full which won't be able to hold any more books and place a dummy file
large enough to throw the % full to > 95% so that the disk will be
ignored for storage attempts.

      Greetings-

       *** Please forgive the cross-posting ***

          I have 4 questions (only 4 ???) about some PD software. Any and
 all help will be GREATLY appreciated!!!!!

          1. Has anyone gotten GOPHER to work in a VM/XA or VM/ESA
             environment?

          2. Has anyone gotten UNICORN to work with a TCP/IP interface?

          3. Has anyone gotten WAIS from Thinking Machines to work on VM?
             (Ive had a heck of a time w/the ascii<->ebcidc translations)

          4. Does anyone have a version of CURSES for VM?


                                thanks-for-any-help
