    How to creaate playable DVD-R?

    I will check this information. I have Roxio Toast 5.xx for OS 9.2. Obviously, my skill with it is limited to burning data and audio CDs so far. I'll wander its menus to see whether this older version will do what you link reports.

    How to creaate playable DVD-R?

    I have downloaded from public domain two documentaries: "Memory of the Camps," narrated by Trevor Howard, and "Triumph of the Will." While these play without issue on my Macintosh computer running OS X 10.3.9, neither plays on my Sony 400-disk CD/DVD changer connected to my television. How...

    Zeiss 8x30 B/GA IF, F2 reticle, umbral lenses - N.I.B.

    Moderator: While this is not a link to an eBay auction, with that exception it appears to meet Lounge standards. If I am mistaken, moderate as necessary. *** This is a link to probably the most egregiously over designed binocular Zeiss has made. . . . I guess that implies it's the most...

    Moderator: While this is not a link to an eBay auction, with that exception it appears to meet Lounge standards. If I am mistaken, moderate as necessary. *** This is a link to a long-discontinued Browning folding knife - whose blades are useful rather than decorative. I have no idea why...

    Mixed Connective Tissue Disease (MCTD), an unusually virulent, incurable autoimmune disease has essentially blinded me in one eye. I have at sale two Zeiss 8x30 B/GA IF binoculars NEW-IN-BOX. This is the binocular developed by Zeiss in 1964 for the Bundeswehr. Its commercial version, I...

    How to create an Audio CD-R?

    I just bought a CD, "Duke Ellington: The London Concerts," that has one song I particularly like - Cootie Williams' trumpet-with-mute playing "Caravan." The remainder of the CD? Not so pretty good. I would like to burn "Caravan" to a CD-R and use in the CD changer in my Lexus 450. I run Mac OS X...

    Dog ownership - questions, costs??

    I have been considering acquiring a dog from the Humane Society. But I have no idea what I would be getting into in terms of maintenance costs - that is, veterinary services, food, other?? I grew up with English bulldogs, but they are fragile, extremely high maintenance animals. And ours weighed...

    Kit, accessories guns, etc. used by British/Russian "political officers" circa 1860

    Although taken circa 1920, this photograph begs answers: -- What is he wearing? -- What rifle is in the case? -- What is the telescope? -- How did he get there? -- Why is he where he is? -- Is he "government," or is he under cover? -- For whom does he work? -- and so on.

    Kit, accessories guns, etc. used by British/Russian "political officers" circa 1860

    This forum appears to be the least inappropriate for my query. *** I just read a superb book, The Great Game, by Peter Hopkirk. It is a history of the contest for empire between Great Britain and czarist Russia. Reading extraordinary exploits by "political officers" of both countries, I...

    Please identify links and/or print sources for kit lists and photographs for Royal Geographic Society explorers and "political exploring officers," circa 1850s through 1890s, of "The Great Game" in west central Asia. Indian, British, and Russian participants are equally acceptable.

    For Sale/Trade - Cirrus sheepskin jacket - Irvin style

    Mark: The jacket has been sold. For your reference, Cirrus' Irvin-style sheepskin jacket as I describe its size - unless Cirrus has altered their pattern - will fit you well, albeit slightly loosely. It was an excellent fit for a size 38 of your body build. The facet of fit you should be...

    VERY inexpensive OS X 10.4 for U.S. Macintoshes only

    Ten U.S. Macintosh owners benefit from my mistake. I bought ten nearly new copies of OS X 10.4.4 and 10.4.8 - but not a single one is installable on my Macintosh computers. - For sale are ten copies of Apple OS X in original packaging. - Nine of these copies are OS X Version 10.4.4 for...

    45ACP Revolvers

    Regarding ONLY original New Service and New Century revolvers as shooting machines, please keep in mind: - The "control" or baseline via which the War Department chose the M1911 pistol was the M1909 Colt - that incorporated all mechanical improvements of subsequent commercial (and M1917) New...

    L. Sprague De Camp??

    Many years ago I owned a science fiction book whose dust jacket art was amusing. Not only do I no longer have the book, I cannot remember sufficient detail to find another copy, more for its dust jacket than its text. 1. I think the author was L. Sprague De Camp. 2. The hard cover book...
