Crown I-Tech and XTi amplifiers power concert series at historic outdoor venue
LOS ANGELES - September 2007 -- Nothing provides a better focus for an urban population than a free summer concert series, a fact that is being beautifully illustrated by MacArthur Park's historic Levitt Pavilion for the Performing Arts. Located just west of downtown Los Angeles, the park's outdoor bandshell is hosting a lineup of widely eclectic entertainment--from international and roots music concerts to dance performances to children's productions--five evenings a week as the sun sets and stars come out. To properly accommodate sound reinforcement duties for a highly diverse roster of acts, LA Sound Company, in conjunction with Brian Riordan of Levels Audio, has elected to use Crown I-Tech and XTi Series power amplifiers driving a fully JBL loudspeaker setup.
"We have had good experience in the past with Crown I-Tech and XTi systems," confides LA Sound Co. Owner Richard Ralke, "so they were a natural choice for us to use at Levitt Pavilion. Aside from sounding excellent, which is our number one criterion, the Crowns are easy to program, incorporate a lot of powerful DSP, and are very efficient with low power consumption. The I-Tech Series, in particular, is also extremely versatile in handling a wide range of speaker impedances and outputs."
Because of scheduling changes, the pavilion's sound system was specified, designed and assembled in just three weeks. To streamline system adjustment, all Crown power amplifiers are networked via Ethernet using Harman Pro's HiQnet(tm) communications and control protocol.
"We can set up crossover filter parameters and delay from a PC and load them into each amplifier," explains Ralke. "In fact, JBL supplied us with new systems settings for the loudspeakers, which we used to reprogram each amplifier; it only took us a couple of minutes. We also had to ensure that the entire PA system could be taken down in just 45 minutes, since the owners strike the venue at the end of each evening performance. We designed the custom amp racks with multi-pin connectors so that the system can be rolled out, powered, and ready to go in a very short time."
Levitt Pavilion's sound system currently comprises four JBL VerTec VT4887A line array cabinets flown per side powered by four Crown I-T4000 amplifiers, two JBL ASB6128V subs stacked per side powered by a pair of Crown I-T6000s, plus eight JBL SRX712M stage monitor cabinets driven by a rack full of eight Crown XTi 4000s. "We are very happy with the coverage, sound quality and output of the Crown-powered rig," says Ralke.
MacArthur Park's summer concert season at Levitt Pavilion runs from August 8 through September 16 with a full season of 30 nightly concerts. The park's vintage bandstand and acoustic shell were built 50 years ago, but recently underwent a $2M renovation and modernization to accommodate this year's concert itinerary, which is produced by The Friends of the Levitt Pavilion - MacArthur Park, a non-profit organization.
Immortalized in 1968 by Richard Harris' recording of Jimmy Webb's epic tune, which was further popularized by Donna Summer a decade later, MacArthur Park is one of the oldest and most significant parks in LA and boasts a colorful history as the centerpiece of the Westlake district. In recent years, the combined efforts of neighborhood groups, community entities, and public agencies have created significant change in the park via improvements to return it to its former beauty. Today, the park is once again a destination for recreation, relaxation and entertainment, making it one of the most used areas in Los Angeles.

By Bill Francis
Fans of the national pastime are familiar with the story of Jackie Robinson, the African-American ballplayer who in 1947 broke big league baseball's modern color barrier. But unfamiliar to most is a story that took place without much fanfare 90 years ago this week that improved the lot of those who were prohibited from playing at the game's highest level.
With organized baseball, though segregated, thriving, a meeting took place with a number of the owners of the top independent black baseball teams at a YMCA in Kansas City, Mo., on Feb. 13, 1920. It was here that the Negro National League, the first successful baseball league featuring black players, was founded. Leading the way was Andrew "Rube" Foster, considered black baseball's best pitcher before serving as owner and manager of the Chicago American Giants.
A number of unsuccessful attempts had been made in the past to bring stability to Negro baseball, but this time, after a lengthy discussion, the other owners agreed to Foster's proposal. While black professional baseball had been part of sport's landscape for years, this new venture would do away with scheduling difficulties and bring a sense of financial security to both the owners and players.
It was not coincidence that the NNL's founding came at the same time as the Great Migration, when a half million blacks left the rural south to live and work in northern cities. The new league would have an eager audience looking for a source of inexpensive entertainment long day of work.
In 1997, 50 years after Robinson's debut with the Brooklyn Dodgers, the National Baseball Hall of Fame opened the permanent exhibit Pride and Passion: The African-American Baseball Experience. The exhibit was re-curated and re-designed for a grand opening in 2004.
The story of Pride and Passion: The African-American Baseball Experience is also told throughout the country through a national traveling panel exhibition that will visit more than three dozen public and academic libraries over the next four years. The exhibit, a partnership of the Hall of Fame and the American Library Association, features photographs of artifacts and the stories of the participants as African-American players and owners changed the landscape of professional baseball.
The exhibit is currently on display in San Jose, Calif., at the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Library. For a list of all sites and dates, visit http://www.ala.org/publicprograms
Foster, elected as the NNL's first president, would be elected by the Baseball Hall of Fame's Committee on Veterans in 1981. He would serve his team and the NNL until late in 1926 when illness forced his retirement. He died four years later at 51.
Years later, Joe Green, former owner of the Chicago Giants, said, "Actually, when Rube died, the league died with him."
In the summer of 1931, after having been without Foster's guidance for four years, the NNL, which added and subtracted numerous cities to its roster over the years, folded. But ultimately, Foster proved that Negro League baseball could be a viable business for African-American entrepreneurs – as well as great entertainment for fans.

Ask a Country Vet: Cat Advice
Our resident country vet, Dr. Robert Sharp, answers the most pressing questions about your cats.
Have a question for Dr. Sharp? Drop him a line at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Q: My daughter likes to sneak our 10-week-old kitten a saucer of milk. He laps it up, but I've heard milk isn't good for cats. Should I tell her to stop?
A. I'd intervene on your kitty's behalf. Cats have no need for milk in their diets after they've been weaned, typically at 6 to 8 weeks old. Your furry friend may love the stuff, but that doesn't mean you should keep doling it out.
While nursing, a newborn feline produces an enzyme, called lactase, that helps break down the sugar (lactose) in its mother's milk. But as the kitten grows up and no longer relies on Mom for meals, the animal's ability to generate lactase waneseventually ceasing altogether. Without the enzyme, the large molecules of lactose go through the GI tract undigested, drawing far too much moisture. Put frankly: Serve an adult cat a saucer of milk, and the lactose-intolerant creature will repay you with diarrhea. Further complicating matters, cow's milk has a different nutritional makeup than cat's milk, one that's hard for felines of any age to digest.
Now, I can practically hear all the dairy farmers out there exclaiming, "Why, I've treated my barn cats to fresh milk for 40 years, and they love it!" That might be true, but no one follows those free-roaming creatures around to investigate the end results. In generaland this goes for any weaned felinedo your pet and your carpets a favor. Skip the milk.

Sarasota Season of Sculpture is back on the bayfront, and in case you hadn't noticed, the show is much less in-your-face than previous exhibitions.
There are no junkyard cars planted upright in the grass, no giant teeth, no dancing stick figures and no public displays of affection.
At the helm of this year's selection is John Henry — a Tennessee-based sculptor with a Southern drawl, a fitting name and a reputation for creating monumental steel structures.
At an age when most men are starting to settle into retirement, Henry, 68, is busier than ever, flying in and out of cities every week to install work, attend museum events and gallery openings.
Last week he was at the International Art Fair in Canada. Prior to that, he was in northern Wyoming. And, now, this week he's in Sarasota, kicking off the sixth Season of Sculpture.
"Under Azure Skies," which Henry curated in 2007, features work by Verina S. Baxter, Chakaia Booker, John Clement, Isaac Duncan, Terry Karpowicz, Peter Lundberg, Albert Paley, Bret Price, Douglas Schatz and Henry.
It's a diverse collection of 10 abstract works sculpted from steel, concrete, wood, granite and rubber. Up until now it's been on public display in Lucerne, Switzerland.
"Aesthetically, I think maybe it's a little more challenging than other shows in the past," Henry says of the exhibition. "I don't think it's as provocative as the cars buried in the ground, or as 'Unconditional Surrender.'"
That's not to say that he took umbrage with any of the previous shows. A statement-making artist in his own right, Henry says he thought Dustin Shuler's dancing cars were "pretty cool."
Over the course of 40 years, Henry has produced some of the largest contemporary public-art sculptures in the United States.
Take, for example, his 70-foot-tall "Star Pointer," which went up on the Sarasota bayfront during Season of Sculpture's fourth show.
The striking geometric structure, which stayed up long after the rest of the exhibition came down, had all the elements of a typical John Henry sculpture. It was towering; it was steel; and it was red.
"There has to be a certain amount of camaraderie between the environment and the sculpture," Henry says. "A lot of good sculptures get lost in the urban environment because of the scale of the buildings around it. It becomes an afterthought. I'm not interested in that. I'm interested in sculpture that makes a strong individual statement."
Usually this means his work ends up painted red.
"It's not that I love red," Henry says. "It's just a good, strong color that sets itself apart from other things. Why do you think fire trucks have been painted red for years?"
As a kid he thought he wanted to be an architect, until he took his first art class at the University of Kentucky and realized he was more interested in the creative side of construction.
Listening to him talk about space and scale, size and color, you wonder what kind of signature buildings Henry would have designed had he not pursued a career in art.
Then again, with a name like John Henry, how could he not work with steel?
"I've heard that one maybe 1,000 times," Henry says with a heavy sigh. "There are actually three famous John Henrys out there. There's John Henry the steel-driving man, John Henry the racehorse, and John Henry the guy who makes shirts and underwear."
Sarasota Season of Sculpture's sixth season, "Under Azure Skies," opens at 5:30 p.m. Nov. 11 with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on the bayfront. For more information, visit sarasotaseasonofsculpture.org.
Like many non-profit organization, Sarasota Season of Sculpture has had to find creative ways to produce shows with dwindling funds.
The organization can no longer afford to pay an executive director, which means a volunteer board of directors is responsible for running this year's exhibition.
According to board President Susan McLeod, by bringing in a show that had already been curated, the organization was able to cut its expenses by 50%.
"This is really a make-or-break show for us," McLeod says. "It's not the largest by any means, but it's one of the strongest, and we were fortunate to be able to work with John Henry to make it happen in these economic times."

I Have a Friend Who Believes Science Disproves Faith, Part 1
Is Christianity anti-science? Can Christians be good scientists? Is science the only source of true knowledge? Pastor Dave Gustavsen of Jacksonville Chapel addresses these issues.
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
Is Christianity anti-science? Can Christians be good scientists? Is science the only source of true knowledge? Pastor Dave Gustavsen of Jacksonville Chapel addresses these issues.
Evolution is a challenging subject to consider in light of biblical faith, so it is often easier to ignore or reject it than to engage in meaningful discussion about the topic. Yet considering evolutionary creation has important benefits for Christians both in our relationship with the Creator, and in our relationships with other people—both believers and non-believers.
A short guide to where BioLogos fits in the origins debate.
Divine Hiddenness is the claim that our public evidence is strong enough to make Christian faith reasonable, but not strong enough to make it compelling.
We as Christians cannot claim that the world belongs to God and at the same time distrust the systematic study of it.
In the early 1700s, Isaac Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz famously disagreed about whether God periodically "corrected" the orbits of the planets. Why their disagreement matters for today's debates about God and evolution.
Because reliance upon experts cannot be eliminated, the central question for Christians today is not "should I believe scientific experts?" but "which scientific experts should I believe?"
I've always thought of the sense of smell as a more intimate sense than most other senses. For in smelling, the thing that we smell becomes almost a part of us.
Many of this week's science links happen at the wondrous intersection of mystery and discovery.
From 2012: Many secular and many evangelical voices agree on one 'truism'—that if you are an orthodox Christian with a high view of the authority of the Bible, you cannot believe in evolution in any form at all. New Atheist authors such as Richard Dawkins and creationist writers such as Ken Ham seem to have arrived at consensus on this.
The prevailing evangelical view that evolution is in competition with the biblical account of creation sets up students to encounter a false dichotomy, where they feel they must choose between science or their faith.
Pope Francis is reiterating a basic claim in Catholic Christianity: If one acknowledges that God creates by giving creatures not only their existence but also their natures, one can reconcile an evolutionary worldview with the Christian faith.
Science is an honest and noble pursuit, evidence of human intellect and curiosity, and to turn away from these is to deny a very important part of who God created us to be in the first place.
While reading about and studying the processes that gave rise to this astonishing world, please don't forget that it is beautiful. It is not merely mechanics, but poetry.
The former chair of the Harvard University physics department muses on how faith gives meaning to his scientific work.
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
Here are some of the best responses from around the web to David's Barash's controversial editorial about God and Evolution in the New York Times.

You have a unique medical history. Therefore, it is essential to talk with your doctor or healthcare provider about your personal risk factors and/or experience with GERD or heartburn. By talking openly and regularly with your healthcare provider, you can take an active role in your care.
Here are some tips that will make it easier for you to talk to your healthcare provider:
- Bring someone else with you. It helps to have another person hear what is said and think of questions to ask.
- Write out your questions ahead of time, so you don't forget them.
- Write down the answers you get, and make sure you understand what you are hearing. Ask for clarification, if necessary.
- Don't be afraid to ask your questions or ask where you can find more information about what you are discussing. You have a right to know.
- Could my symptoms be caused by GERD?
- Do I need to be treated for GERD?
- Am I at increased risk for GERD?
- Are there specific foods I should avoid to lower my risk of developing GERD?
- Does being overweight increase my risk of developing GERD?
- Can smoking increase my risk of GERD?
Are medications sufficient to control GERD?
- What side effects are associated with these drugs?
- Will they interact with other medications, over the counter products, or dietary and herbal supplements I am taking?
- At what point should I consider surgery to control GERD?
- What lifestyle changes can I make to help manage or control GERD?
- Do I have to eat a completely bland diet to control GERD?
- Are there any restrictions on exercise?
- Can you give me some advice for quitting smoking?
- Are there complications that I should be concerned about?
- How can I avoid these complications?

I started to realize that people conflated us, or particularly me, with the characters. People assumed that I was the amiable, dim-witted friend, right? [Laughs] Which wasn't exactly what I was going for! Matt and I have had a friendship for 25 years. We don't get wound up about that stuff. You learn to roll your eyes.
When I was doing The Town, I'd tour the actors around Boston. I was with Blake [Lively], and I saw Matt's childhood home. And I said, "Oh yeah, that's where Matt grew up." And she said, "Who?" And I said, "Matt Damon." And she said, "Oh my God! You know Jason Bourne?!" She really didn't know. And I thought, "There it is. The first age of people who are adults who missed the whole Matt-and-Ben propaganda campaign!" Mostly, it just made me feel old.
I got a great chuckle out of this.....some of my go to lines are no longer usable because the chicks have no clue they are form a movie.

Demanding Dignity for All
Just south of Lampedusa island, the Italian Navy transfers 219 migrants to their ship. The migrants include Pakistanis, Syrians, Moroccans, Nigerians, and Nepalis who had left the coast of Libya with smugglers the night before. The Navy ship was operating as part of Italy's "Mare Nostrum" project, searching for boats with migrants trying to cross the Mediterranean Sea. The Open Society Foundations work to advance fair treatment of migrants and refugees.

Arresting the Spread of HIV
In many countries, HIV rates are climbing among sex workers and people who use drugs. One of the main reasons is that they are criminalized. Too often sex workers and drug users are forced to choose between protecting their health and staying safe from police harassment or arrest. But a novel approach to law enforcement is changing this, and may prove as critical to HIV prevention as a condom or clean needle. Through partnerships with HIV experts and community groups, police such as those in Kyrgyzstan, depicted above, are playing a critical role in the fight against HIV.

This image is part of a series by photographer Diana Markosian, who aims to show how girls and young women are navigating their transition into adulthood in this context, and to honor their strength amidst the challenges they face.

Visualizing Human Rights
Every morning dozens of men and boys from the Pademba Road Prison in Freetown, Sierra Leone, are taken to court. This does not mean that they will be judged; it may be years until their trials end. Some youth may spend several years in Pademba Road Prison before receiving a sentence. In his series "Juveniles Waiting for Justice," photographer Fernando Moleres tells the story of young men and boys confined in an adult prison, as a deeply flawed justice system takes over and determines their fate.

Sociology majors engage in significant research through the two semester Capstone courses taken spring of the junior year and fall of the senior year. Students conduct a literature review on their topic, create a research design and collect and analyze their data. Individual projects share a common sociological theme, like inequality, social capital or McDonaldization, but also present unique topical, theoretical and methodological focuses. The final projects are displaed in poster presentations to which the campus and larger community are invited. The projects are impressive submissions to future employers or graduate programs as a demostration of many higher-order Sociological skills.
Other Sociology majors who qualify do significant research through the all-College Honors Program.

text: Even though I've been associated with Monticello for more than 25 years, I'm still constantly amazed by the amount of time and effort that went into small details that are easy to overlook when viewing the house as a whole. For example, I recently started thinking about the rectangular groupings of guttae (pronounced "gutty"), which are part of the Doric entablature that marches around the entire exterior of the house, including the pediments. The same detail occurs inside as well in the Dining Room and Tea Room entablatures.

Perfect fit for my iPhone 4s. The "chrome" lining on the back is a little cheap looking, but can�t complain since the price can�t be beat. Overall, very happy with the product.
This case looks nice. That's about it. It's flimsy, and would definitely not save it if you dropped it.
Just OK not as nice as I thought it would be. Others I have purchased were nicer.
Went to take some pictures in the dark, and got strange white shadows all around the subjects. I didn't remember that happening before. But I love the look and feel of this case.
These cases r so good u can use them till u tired of it and get a new one very good price got it for everybody but in deferent style :)
The product came in and has a nice appearance but since it is plastic it began to chip on the edge and the silver lines began to come off on the side.

Be careful what you wish for...
To clarify, I didn't mean for you to die or Keenan or Hitch to die, it's a game, its not life and death or anything serious. I meant the -idea- of having Keenan again as Coach. I know you're kidding but the thought of it sent a shiver up my spine and took me back to a time when we had the kind of team that could have walked away with the Cup and Keenan jacked all that up to Hell.
If you took it any other way, I do greatly apologize.
No it's cool I've just been on edge the past few months. Let's just say I'm not the healthiest person in the world.

Giordana Nordic Winter Gloves $44.95
Reviews & Community
What do you think of the
Giordana Nordic Winter Gloves
? Share a...
Mike B
Great glove, very warm.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I have worn the gloves in the high 30s and they have been very warm. The gloves provide extra coverage should you have long arms, sleeves that don't quite reach, something I feel that all winter gloves should have. My grip on the handlebar is fantastic and the padding is well placed. The sizing is close to advertised, if you are on the cusp of two sizes I would size up.

Multiple myeloma is cancer that starts in the plasma cells in bone marrow. Bone marrow is the soft, spongy tissue found inside most bones. It helps make blood cells.
Plasma cells help your body fight infection by producing proteins called antibodies. With multiple myeloma, plasma cells grow out of control in the bone marrow and form tumors in the areas of solid bone. The growth of these bone tumors weakens the solid bones and also makes it harder for the bone marrow to make healthy blood cells and platelets
Plasma cell dyscrasia; Plasma cell myeloma; Malignant plasmacytoma; Plasmacytoma of bone; Myeloma - multiple
The exact cause of multiple myeloma is not clear. Past treatment with radiation therapy increases the risk of this type of cancer. Multiple myeloma mainly affects older adults.
Multiple myeloma most commonly causes a low red blood cell count (anemia ), which can lead to fatigue and shortness of breath. It can also cause low white blood cell count, which makes you more likely to get infections. Multiple myeloma can also cause low platelet count, which can lead to abnormal bleeding.
As the cancer cells grow in the bone marrow, you may have bone or back pain , most often in the ribs or back.
The cancer cells can weaken bones. You may develop broken bones (bone fractures) just from doing normal activities.
If cancer grows in the spine bones, pressure on the nerves may result. This can lead to numbness or weakness of the arms or legs.
Blood tests can help diagnose this disease. These tests include:
Bone x-rays may show fractures or hollowed out areas of bone. If your doctor suspects this type of cancer, a bone marrow biopsy will be performed.
Bone density testing may show bone loss.
People who have mild disease or in whom the diagnosis is not certain are often not treated. Instead they are closely monitored. Some people have a slow-developing form of multiple myeloma (smoldering myeloma) that takes years to cause symptoms.
Chemotherapy is usually used to treat multiple myeloma. It is most often given to prevent complications of multiple myeloma, such as bone fractures and kidney damage.
Radiation therapy may be done to relieve bone pain or treat a bone tumor.
Two types of bone marrow transplants may be tried:
You can ease the stress of illness by joining a cancer support group. Sharing with others who have common experiences and problems can help you not feel alone.
Survival of multiple myeloma depends on the patient's age and the stage of disease. In some cases, the disease progresses very rapidly. In other cases, it takes years to worsen.
Chemotherapy and transplants rarely lead to a permanent cure.
Kidney failure is a frequent complication. Others may include:
Call your doctor if you have multiple myeloma and you develop an infection, or numbness, loss of movement, or loss of sensation.
