![]() ![]() Mancuso is very capable, willing and well-prepared to provide a stable and loving home." Instead, Mancuso's agency relied on a home study prepared by a Pittsburgh social worker. I feel somehow responsible," Rachelle said.īut McDade and her daughter both say they were never contacted by adoption authorities. When I first found out that he adopted a little girl I should have spoke up, I should have said something. He had molested Rachelle as a child, they said. His ex-wife, Doreen McDade, and his 28-year-old daughter, Rachelle, told ABC News he had done this before. It turns out Masha was not Mancuso's first victim. "I guess I'd still be waiting, like I did for five years," she said. She says she doesn't know what she would have done if they didn't come. Masha was finally rescued at the age of 10. So once I said something - I said everything else. "It was like, I finally had someone to talk to. Holtz remembers her asking: "Is this about my secret?" An agent had taken Mancuso inside his house, but even there, he tried to keep Masha from talking by yelling out to her.īut Masha spoke anyway. The agents found computer disks with child pornography - but the biggest discovery was to come from Masha herself. "He wasn't happy that we were there and it was obvious to us," he said. They immediately separated them, and Clinton says he could tell Mancuso was concerned. When they pulled up, they saw Mancuso and Masha outside. On May 27, 2003, federal agents Denise Holtz and Tom Clinton visited Mancuso's home, looking for the photos advertised on the Internet. Zaglifa pretended to want them too, and struck up a conversation with someone using the handle "NkdSister." After chatting with him for a bit, he had a gut feeling - and traced NkdSister's Internet address to Pittsburgh. There is a limited supply of child porn, and so pedophiles are always looking for arousing new images - so when Masha's fresh pictures appeared, this caused a feeding frenzy. Mike Zaglifa had been posing as a pedophile on the Internet, where obscene pictures of children are often traded like baseball cards. The road to Masha's rescue began hundreds of miles away in the Chicago suburb of Palos Heights. So I just didn't tell anybody, 'cause I was afraid." "He wouldn't tell me what it would be, but he'd just say something bad would happen. "He'd tell me not to tell anyone, or else something bad would happen," Masha said. To keep her silent he used rewards - as well as threats. "But it always came back to me - couldn't stop it." "I'd make myself think of other things when it was happening," she said. ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() The big buck parts upgrade, however, is was the Mundorf MCap Supreme Silver Oil capacitors used of output coupling capacitors - the four of these cost about US$170. The whole process cost me about US$1200.Ī big part of the SE+ upgrade is the power supply that includes replacing many capacitors, (mostly Nichicon), and the diodes, (Cree Schottky). I also had the volume control chips replace, (PGA 2311), and the defective rotary volume control encoder replace (the latter is a common problem with the Line 1). So a couple of days ago I got my Sonic Frontiers Line 1 preamplifier back from Parts ConneXion having had their "SE+" upgrade performed. I was terribly disappointed by the vintage Amperex which were my favorites a decade ago now I find the midrange is 'way too "fat". Just before the unit went to pcX I was running the JJ E88CC/6922 gold pin which offer a relatively high dose of tube attributes. Of interest maybe is some tube rolling that I did, (see thread () on another forum). While the Line 1 is in the shop, I'm driving my power amp directly from my Topping D90 DAC the sound is quite tolerable but not the same. I dropped it on in person to Parts ConneXion because its only a 1.5 hour drive from my home - safer and quicker than shipping. One way to look at is is, Which high-quality, full function (except phone), fully balanced & differential preamps can one buy for $2100, even used? Not many. This work will probably cost me the equivalent of about US$1200.Ĭonsidering I paid US$900 for the preamp, one may consider whether the upgrades are worth it. My SF Line 1 is into Parts ConneXion () for the "SE+" upgrade as well as the Volume control repair and chip upgrade. I'm hoping the the SF Line will preserve more of the inherent transparency than the Freya + - the Line 1 doesn't have a Passive Mode :| However I also fined that with certain types of music - in particular large-scale orchestra - I loose too much transparency, consequently I end up listening using the Freya +'s Passive Mode, (in my case that doesn't loose any dynamics). I have tried my current Schiit Freya + in Tube Mode which produces tube effects of a mild sort. By the contrast the Purifi is super transparent and resolved and also hyper-dynamic but lacking in warmth. The Monarchys were a high-bias class A type, fairly transparent but a also a bit mellow in presentation. But today I's driving a VTV Audio Purifi stereo amp. I liked back in the day but that was with different associated equipment most of the time I owned it, I was using a pair of Monarchy SM70 Pro's. the Line 1 is whether I will like it today. The first bought in 2009 and sold in 2011. If I like my new Line 1 I'll like go for their SE+ upgrade. pcX offers upgrades to the Line 1 and most SF products. The owner there, Chris Johnson, was an original owner & founder of Sonic Frontiers. Fortunately, though, their equipment can still get excellent service at Parts Connexion (pcX) (). Sonic Frontiers has been out of business for 20 year at least. Both were sold for reasonable prices - I can't afford to hang on to equipment I'm not using. I'm not sorry about these going, (at least not for now :rolleyes:). I sold on both the Pass X150.5 and the ARC preamp. Come to find out no tubes were in it, LOL I've never heard the SF but understand the gear to have been very good.įunny story, brush with SF, a local store had one of their power amps in on trade, they didn't seem to know much about it and I didn't know that much about tubes, just beginning, I got the amp home, hooked it up, no sound. ![]() ![]() As a result, trouble found her early: fistfights in the school hallways, late-night graffiti, dealing drugs, petty theft, and even setting fire to the principal’s car.

![]() ![]() Is there anything else I need to do when the magnet is in place? When I removed the magnet I could calibrate the yoke exactly as per your document. When I went too calibrate the yoke I followed the instructions but I could not get the led to flash rapidly (step 2) and was not able to complete the calibration. I didn't want to use the adhesive at first so I held the magnet in place with some painters tape just too try it. Today I noticed the roll axis was drifting to the left again so I thought I would try one of the magnets. ![]() I recently noticed some weird control issues when making small adjustments to the left roll axis, so I also ordered some of these magnets and they are being delivered today. Simple fix for around $8.ĭid you use just one of these magnets stuck to the back or is there two I can’t quite tell from the picture. I saved myself a second RMA to TM and being without a yoke for a week or two. You figure a company like TM would fix the problem since there have been a few RMA from other users. Since doing this I have not had a single issue with my TCA Yoke. I installed the magnet and ran the TM TCA Boeing Yoke calibration procedures. I followed his suggestion and order a magnet from Amazon. He actually took the yoke apart and figured out what was causing the problem. I then came across a post from a user on the site. I was amazed that this was a common problem. ![]() Since the problem came back I decided to see if others had the issues. Any suggestions as this is become a pain to use. I use both the TM drivers and the Windows drivers with the same results. Sometimes I have to push and pull the yoke Y-Axis (elevator) to get the left/right axis to re-center. Sometimes it will be fine on take off and then loose center on landings. This is not good when trying to fly planes in MSFS2020. I can unplug and re-plug it in and it will be fine for awhile and then it will shift to the left of center again after awhile. My TCA Boeing Yoke X-Axis keeps centering left of center. I have already sent my TCA Yoke back to Thrustmaster once to fix the issue but it came back a month later. I have seen a few post online with others having the same problem with the X-Axis (Roll). Let's not make final decisions before we have valid info to work with.I figured I'd share my experience with others incase some are having the same issues. Just the start of looking into a possible problem. Of course this is limited with my observation and a PC solution. Still the HOTAS works perfectly with other games as many have posted on the Forum. Worse case players loving this game keep purchasing HOTAS thinking it is a hardware issue. Well, I wasn't too busy.īest case a problem is identified and resolved. Short of the expensive European/Russian HOTAS I own every version and tested them in ED. Is it a controller failure or over time a relationship with the game? Changing to a new controller usually erases any previous settings on the PC, I'd look into it. Refreshing with a RegEdit clear on a PC does not work for every HOTAS or platform.Īnyone at Frontier working this? Just my own experience without qualitative analysis but might be worth taking a look. So why does playing the game change the yaw? The ED bindings file doesn't seem to resolve this. I don't have this solution with a T.Flight HOTAS 4 on the PS4 but others have posted yaw drift with it. Download a Zip file which erases all RegEdit X-56 files in the registry, recalibrate in Windows 7 and we're back to new. Many hours playing and the yaw starts to drift. I currently run a Logitech X-56 grey that supposedly fixed all the problems with the Saitek/Mad Katz versions. I'm holding out hope that the recent Microsoft deal with Logitech will result in an alternative coming on the market, as this is getting rather tedious. I got back in touch, went through the same process, and was sent a third unit. Raising ticket to unboxing new unit took about four days.įast forward another three months and the replacement started doing the same thing. I contacted Thrustmaster who asked for a video demonstrating the problem (easy way is to plug it into a pc, download and run the thrustmaster control panel software and use your phone to film the yaw input bar going bananas) and they sent out a replacement unit with no quibbles whatsoever. After about six months' use, yaw jitter issues as you describe started happening, barely noticeable at first, but rapidly deteriorated to the point that the thing was unusable. I only wish I could say the same about the HOTAS one. All credit to Thrustmaster, their customer service is excellent. ![]() ![]() This mouse is large, heavy and has a plethora of programmable buttons which, once you get used to them, you will miss in other designs. Junk the charger and use rechargeable AA cells, which take seconds to swap. So much so that I prefer these for outlining tasks in Photoshop to a Wacom tablet. But the superior ergonomics (right handed only) make that minor inconvenience worthwhile. Long discontinued, these use two AA rechargeable batteries which last 4-5 days at most. On my two HackPros I use ancient Logitech MX900 BT mice, recommended by a reader. Most also suffer from very poor vertical scrolling, owing to the coarsely stepped design of the teeth driven by the scroll wheel. Reckon on 1-2 months with alkaline AA batteries, 30% less with rechargeables. You will see claims of up to 3 months but that is also pure rot. That’s a shame because the early white keyboards were head and shoulders superior ergonomically to the atrocious current ‘chiclet’ key offerings from Apple.īattery life of BT mice is poor. I could never get it to work, and Apple even admits that the older keyboards will not work. Try pairing an early white Apple bluetooth keyboard with current computers. ‘Pairing’ of the mouse with a computer using BT is notoriously unreliable and generational differences abound. I doubt it’s interference from other 2.4gHz devices (like cordless phones) as we have none in the house and the neighbors are too far away. This has been the case with any number of computers I have used. It’s not predictable nor is it clear to me why erratic operation comes and goes, but once I moved my bluetooth dongles from the rear of computer cases to the front or to the keyboard (if equipped with a USB socket) the erratic behavior ceased. Place metal between mouse and receiver and things get worse quickly. With several bluetooth adapters tested, I have found that unless the mouse is no more than 2-3 feet from the bluetooth receiver, or ‘dongle’, erratic operation results. They use a 2.4gHz frequency and claims for reliable operation over ranges up to 30 feet are pure rot, in my experience. Probably the oldest technology, Bluetooth receivers are built in to many desktops, laptops, and nearly all modern cell phones and tablets. The only thing the MagicMouse does well is super smooth scrolling, making them much like many beautful women I have known. Other than design fetishists, the only people who like this mouse are surgeons in the carpal tunnel business. ![]() I got rid of both mine after a few months of desperately trying to get them to work properly, with all sorts of aftermarket drivers to enable broader functionality, but there’s simply no way to improve the frightful low profile design or handgrip, both inspired by Torquemada’s torture chambers. If the tech world offered gaol sentences for bad ergonomic design, the designer of the Magic Mouse would be a lifer. The original BT mouse had but two buttons, the next had that ridiculous little scroll ball which would eventually cause the device’s demise owing to ingress of dirt and grease, and the current Magic Mouse belongs in the MOMA design section, not causing you carpal tunnel at your workstation. ![]() I’m not going to focus on Apple wireless mice here, because Apple seems genetically incapable of making a proper mouse. I would guess this applies equally to PCs. The challenge was identical with the MacMini predecessor, and while there are many variations on the theme, I’ll share my experiences below in the hope that they prove useful to others using a Mac or Hack as a home theater computer. One of the challenges of controlling the Hack Mini from ten feet away is finding a wireless mouse which actually works. ![]() |
