Made me think of some current CP members.
Maybe, but I would think a member is a member.Made me think of some current CP members.
Is that not the case?
Or are there "better members" and "whiner members"?
The whole net is filled with people who are unhappy.
Where does that leave you?

'Political Correctness'.........defined
"A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."
More so a generation of entitlement mentality that has permeated society. Actually, a few generations, and some even older ones that have converted.
Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:

Why do you think I asked people to stop ELECTING "Trophy Kids"??!
I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!
I've been working here for 6 months and I can't get a $4 raise??
No Way But The Hard Way, So Get Used To It!!!
So don't "we" need to qualify just who we are referring to? Give it a "context". I can certainly provide one!
There is a LOT of wisdom in a few pages of Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse Five where he tells us of some words of wisdom you can find in almost any American bar, and why they are there. Of course, if you're unfamiliar with that part of America, if you're a panel of affluent commentators talking about kids whose parents can PROBABLY afford NYU tuition and fees, then, we're not really talking about "anything" that's relevant here. Because those kids will not end up in either the middle class, working class, nor in poverty.
I find myself amused and saddened at the same time.
Where I come from, everyone is told "they are NOT good enough" and will NEVER amount to anything.

Oh come now CNH, thats what taxpayer funded student loans are for....that will bury us under another bursted bubble creating yet another crisis we MUST bail out. The cycle then continues.
cnh, I liked your last comment before you changed it. Damn shame folks made their choice based on that because we are all paying a dear price now.

I see this all the time! Kids today feeling they are entitled to EVERYTHING and parents all too happy to bend over backwards to give them EVERYTHING! Boo hoo hoo, my kid went out there and tried really hard, so they should get the "Tried the Hardest" trophy. I blame the parents.
I talk to friends all the time about this. We didn't have parents that paid for our college. We didn't have all the hi tech devices that are out today. We had to work and make our way in this world by fighting for everything we have. We had to pay for our college and schooling. We had to go through those struggles in life, which turns out to be the very thing that defined us. Never knowing how to work hard, work smart, struggle and to fight for everything you have...thats what defines success! This generation just wants to party, save the trees, cover their body in silly tattoos and have everything handed to them...then complain about the rich or well off that worked their butts off!
I'm not saying she's a slut, but if her vagina had a password...it would be password.
Looks like some people need some Cheese and Crackers..to go with their Wine..
A nice 5 yr. old Cheddar or some un pasteurized Stilton..
Strong bad makes a good point. Like generations before, when you struggle some it builds character....which in alot of cases is sorely missing today.
I know the old mind set was to struggle so your children wouldn't have to as much. In most cases thats true...to an extent, even today. But, you can't remove the very lessons those struggles taught either.
I'll take some aged smoked Gouda with my wine.
However it is OUR generation that got the ball rolling in raising children who feel they are entitled to everything. Our parents didn't have it to give to us, but they made damn sure we got the education so that we could get good jobs to be able to provide it to ourselves. We then turned around and instead of following our parents example, we gave our kids everything so naturally they think they are entitled and are therefore raising their kids the same way. When things are tough they move back home and we let them...rent free! When they have kids we automatically make ourselves their babysitters.
Maybe if we had forced more responsibility on our own children things may have been different. As it is now, I don't see how things are going to get back on track.

With as little moxie as these kids show, it's going to take at least ten or twenty of them to properly wait on me hand and foot.
I speak entirely from experience. YES, I see my generation just handing it to their kids on a silver platter all the time. I'm at the age where i'm not angry because I didn't get that from my parents, I'm angry because of the type of person that it has created. My parents didn't provide a thing for my post highschool life. Up to my 18th birthday, they did, but after that it was up to me to find my way and discover my path. My father was (and still is) the type that told me to get a job after highschool and you stick with it till you retire. Break your back and make it to the promised land...that mighty pension and social security. I followed that mindset admittedly a little too long, but I woke up and got on the right path. I found my way in this world through hard work and sacrifice.
Here's a story. A good friend of mine has an 11yo daughter (and a son). She (and her husband) spend insane amounts of money on dance classes and competitions for her. It started out as 1 or 2 nights a week, but has grown to literally a 5-6 night thing and on weekends. My friend had to file for bankruptcy late last year, getting out from a mountain of debt due to her husband being laid off and out of work for surgery. They also are spend thrifts with the MASSIVE house, 3 vehicles, out to dinner all the time, etc...So they file bankruptcy and get alot of debt wiped out. So you think, clean slate to get things on track. OH NO, now we're gonna up the expensive dance classes further and go to numerous out of state competitions that requitre hotel stays, travel expenses, meals, competition fees...you name it. NYC, Disney, the list goes on. I asked her recently if her daughter is going to pursue this as a career and her answer was...oh heck no! I'd never let her have this type of career. I'll make sure she goes to college for something that she can have a great career with. All this dance, it's just to keep her mind occupied so she stays out of trouble.
I shyt you not! Just boggles the mind! Then she gets angry when her daughter cops an attitude when mom won't buy her all these fancy clothes that are all the rage.
They're just creating monsters that feel entitled to the world without lifting a finger.
I'm not saying she's a slut, but if her vagina had a password...it would be password.
unfortunately - I think that my generation (the boomers) really perfected whining and me-ism... it's been downhill since about 1960s as we grew up (physically if not emotionally). I am not very proud of our legacy to our children and to theirs :-(
all the best,
Way too many parents thesen days want to be their kid's friend,not their disciplinarian.
If you can't hear a difference, don't waste your money.

Not only will our generation(boomers) will be paying for the downward slide to socialism, our children's and grandchildren's and future generations will pay dearly for turning away from what's right and losing our moral compass.
If you're going to have children (some plan - some don't - same result!) you must make a decision on how you will raise them. I have three 17 year olds graduating from high school this year. My wife and I are of similar mindsets - the children do not get to make the decisions - we do. We're the adults, we take the responsibility. As an example we eat supper together on most evenings - we eat what is served. If you don't like it you don't have to eat it, however - there will be nothing else provided for you and breakfast is in the morning! Funny how my kids are not very fussy eaters!
Now that they are older they get to make more decisions on their own with the understanding that they are then responsible for the outcome - good or bad. If the results are bad they are responsible for correcting that situation.
I see many parents that do think the best road is to let the children make the decisions and then as adults they feel they have to correct the results to a positive ending - whatever it may take. I've not seen that work out well in most cases. The children end up thinking that someone else will take responsibility for the mistakes they make. I see those parents taking the easy road as they didn't have to be the "bad guy" in the parenting role. They never said "NO"!
I'm not saying my kids are angels or perfect. But they are polite, can engage in conversation with others and, from what I've seen and others have told me, appear to be heading towards becoming good adults.
I guess where I'm going with this is that there are always going to be (and probably always have been, just not in the numbers we seem to see today) those who think that the world owes them something. But, hopefully, there will also be those that know better. I'm hoping my kids are the latter.

Ya know, I'm sure we all can come up with a story related to this. I have many from personal experiences, but here's one that was closer to home and had to do with a brother in-law's brother.
Daddy is a well to do Doctor practicing in one of the largest hospitals here in Chicago. 2 sons, one married my sister but lets talk about the other one. Daddy puts him through school, gets a degree in some B.S. THEN DECIDES, he wants to go back for his masters. Daddy floats the boat for that too. OK, gets his masters degree then tells daddy he wants to do something else. Daddy sends him back to college, pays the full boat again, kid graduates with a degree in his field. Guess what ? Daddy, I don't like this, I want to be a doctor like you. Daddy sends him to medical school and the kid graduates. Mind you, he's no kid at this point, he's almost 40 years old. Daddy sets him up in his own practice and that last a few years before he gives it up.
Know what the guy does now at 56 years old ? Drives a Zamboni at an Ice rink.
The guy spent his whole life going to school on daddy's dime while waiting for him to pass so he could inherit tons of cash. Literaly never having to work practically his whole life. Which did happen btw. I believe that was the plan all along. Now, some could say thats Daddy's fault and they wouldn't be far off base, I look at it and relate it to what I see today. Nobody wants to sweat at a job anymore but want all the benefits from someone elses hard work. They also have no desire to educate themselves into a better position in the labor force but rather just picket corporations of minimum wage jobs to pay them what educated workers get paid. There's a reason why some make more than others, and rightfully so. Not all of us will be rocket scientists, nor will most be born dumb as a box of rocks, but there exists a job for you no matter your intelligence level. Either accept that or up your intelligence level to gardner the higher earning potential. Don't ask others to compensate you for your lack of ambition is all I'm sayin'.
Your post insults Zamboni drivers. I am going to whine to the mods about your post.
Tony, sad story, but so true of many people nowadays who get lost in the world of academia , afraid to actually grow up and have real resonsibilities other than just passing tests and graduating another class. You're right, the guy didn't want to have to work a real job and decided to keep going to school to avoid it. The Dad should have stopped paying for his education after the first degree. If he was just waiting it out til his Dad passed away to collect inheritance , then this guy is a real POS in my book and he's probably a flaming lib.

Do you trust your ears? It's a seemingly simple question.....at least I think it would be but with the group of folks we have here? I am not so sure. There are objectivists and subjectivists and the believers in double blind testing and scientific studies for proof, then there is the measurement crowd. No matter where you along your audio journey, do you trust your own ears or do you allow the aforementioned to control the audio purchases for your rig?

In Detail
Django is a high-level Python web framework that was developed by a fast-moving online-news operation to meet the stringent twin challenges of newsroom deadlines and the needs of web developers. It is designed to promote rapid development and clean, pragmatic design and lets you build high-performing, elegant web applications rapidly. Django focuses on automating as much as possible and adhering to the DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) principle, making it easier to build high-performance web applications faster, with less code.
This book will show you how to assemble Django's features and take advantage of its power to design, develop, and deploy a fully-featured web site. It will walk you through the creation of an example web application, with lots of code examples.
Specially revised for version 1.0 of Django, the book starts by introducing the main design concepts in Django. Next, it leads you through the process of installing Django on your system. After that, you will start right away on building your social bookmarking application using Django. Various Django 1.0 components and sub-frameworks will be explained during this process, and you will learn about them by example.
In each chapter, you will build one or more of the features that are essential in Web 2.0 applications, like user management, tags, and AJAX. You will also learn about good software development practices, such as keeping your application secure, and automating testing with unit tests. By the end of the book, you will have built a fully functional real-life Web 2.0 application, and learned how to deploy it to a production server.
A beginner's guide to design, develop, and deploy a fully-featured dynamic website using the features of Django 1.0
The simple and clear approach is ideal for beginners to Django. Packed with examples and screenshots, this book will help you learn the features of Django 1.0 and help you build a dynamic website using those features.
Who this book is for
This book is for web developers who want to learn to build a complete site with Web 2.0 features, using the power of a proven and popular development system, Django, but do not necessarily want to learn how the complete framework functions in order to do this. Basic knowledge of Python development is required for this book, but no knowledge of Django is expected.

Scrolls from the MK, no go there. Apparently the MK is pissed with the Toolists, so yeah.
If the MK is actively withholding basic services from one side in the fight, many traditions would consider that a violation of neutrality. Now, they might not be planning anymore "special deals", but the basic range of services (such as Healomancy scrolls) is probably something that's standardized for all sides.
If the MK's status as a neutral power is undermined as a result of Parson's antics, however, expect that to change rapidly.

Below are some of the coolest poker quotes we have found online. I love so many of these. Comment and let me know what you think. If you're into online poker I got a great tip for you guys. When signing up for an account use your rooms sign up bonus code. You can use the Titan Poker bonus code during your sign up process at Titan Poker for a sweet bonus. Give it a try.
- "The guy who invented poker was bright, but the guy who invented the chip was a genius." (Big Julie)
- "Money won is twice as sweet as money earned" (Paul Newman as Fast Eddie in The Color of Money")
- "Cards are war, in disguise of a sport." (Charles Lamb)
- "Poker may be a branch of psychological warfare, an art form or indeed a way of life – but it is also merely a game, in which money is simply the means of keeping score." (Anthony Holden)
- "Limit poker is a science, but no-limit is an art. In limit, you are shooting at a target. In no-limit, the target comes alive and shoots back at you." (Jack Strauss)
- The strong point in poker is never to lose your temper, either with those you are playing with or, more particularly, with the cards. There is no sympathy in poker. Always keep cool. If you lose your head you will lose all your chips. (William J. Florence)
- "It never hurts for potential opponents to think you're more than a little stupid and can hardly count all the money in your hip pocket, much less hold on to it." (Amarillo Slim)
- "If, after the first twenty minutes, you don't know who the sucker at the table is, it's you."
- "Aces are larger than life and greater than mountains." (Mike Caro)
- It's not enough to succeed. Others must fail." (Gore Vidal)
- "I've always had confidence, but I never let my ego get to the point that I think I'm the superstar, because I know.
- That ego has destroyed many a poker career." (Jim Boyd)
- [Poker] exemplifies the worst aspects of capitalism that have made our country so great. (Wlter Matthau)
More Quotes On Gambling

- "Gambling is the son of avarice and the father of despair." (French Proverb)

Autumn is in the air. Leaves are changing, the days seem shorter, temperatures are cooler and the kids are back into their school routine. You can enjoy it all and protect your family by following a few healthy habits.
A lot of people say this is their favorite time of year. There's something special about celebrating autumn with activities like hiking, camping, football, bonfires and, of course, Halloween. Unfortunately, autumn also has its share of health risks. That doesn't mean you have to avoid the fun. A few simple steps will help keep you and your family safe and healthy this autumn.
Cooler temperatures pull a lot of people outdoors at this time of year. That's good because we all need to exercise, no matter what time of year it is. But you need to be careful when you enjoy the changing weather. Whether you're a dedicated leaf-peeper, a fan of "pick your own pumpkin" patches or just enjoy a walk in the brisk air, remember to apply sunscreen. The sun is strong, and your skin still needs protection. The same goes for your eyes. Don't forget to wear sunglasses.
Long-sleeved shirts, pants and socks will also protect you from bug bites during your walk with nature. It may be cooler outside, but ticks and other insects are still around.
Also, don't forget your water bottle. It is just as important to stay hydrated at this time of year as it is during the heat of summer.
Dress properly for this time of year because exposure to colder temperatures can cause health problems. Young children and the elderly run the highest risks, but anyone can be affected by the change in temperatures. The risk isn't just outdoors. Remember that space heaters and fireplaces increase the risk of household fires and carbon monoxide poisoning. This is a good time to clean the chimney, check the furnace, and replace the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.
It may get annoying, but you can't hear this enough times. Germs survive quite well in autumn. Keep your hands clean to reduce the risk of getting sick and spreading germs to others. It is best to wash with soap and clean, warm running water for 20 seconds. If that is not possible, use alcohol-based hand sanitizers.
Autumn's beautiful scenery can be breathtaking, but be prepared when you enjoy the great outdoors. A hike can be fun and even educational for the kids, but check the weather before you hit the trail. You don't want to be surprised by a storm without nearby shelter. You should also stay on marked trails so you don't get lost.
Observe wildlife from a safe distance. Don't get too close because that "peaceful" animal may not be alone and will act to protect its family if it feels threatened.
Make sure that your autumn picnic or camping adventure is memorable for the right reasons. Avoid food poisoning by packing the proper items that keep cold foods cold and hot foods hot. Wash your hands frequently when preparing food and before serving and eating your meal. Don't forget to clean all surfaces and utensils that come into contact with raw meat or meat juices.
Keep the kids away from the grill, and keep that grill away from anything that can catch fire. The same goes for campfires. Do not build one near tents, tree trunks, fallen trees or low hanging tree limbs. When you are finished with the fire, let it die down, spread the glowing coals, soak them with water, and cover the area with dirt.
Yard work does not end with summer. It may even seem to get worse with all of those leaves all over the yard. Remember to protect your muscles by using the right tool for the job. Lift with your legs, not your back, when moving bags of leaves, and get help if something is too heavy to move or lift by yourself. Work gloves are also a great way to avoid blisters when doing yard work.
It's easy to stress these tips with your family, but it's better to lead by example. Make sure that you lead the pack by staying active, eating healthy, and washing your hands. Drive the message home to your kids by practicing what you preach.

Voyager's view
Spacecraft's journey to interstellar space helps put the solar system in perspective
Nicolle Rager Fuller
It's finally official: Voyager 1 has become the first human-made object to enter interstellar space, mission scientists report September 12 in Science. On August 25, 2012, the scientists say, Voyager 1 exited a giant invisible bubble called the heliosphere that is inflated by a torrent of subatomic particles spewing from the sun. Now the probe is surrounded almost exclusively by particles produced by other stars. But whether it's correct to say that the probe has left the solar system depends on how you define the solar system. "From my perspective, Voyager is nowhere near the edge of the solar system," says planetary scientist Hal Levison of the Southwest Research Institute in Boulder, Colo. The sun continues to exert gravitational dominance out to hundreds of times the distance of Voyager 1 from the sun, where trillions of icy pebbles, boulders and comets orbit.

I would absolutely love a black iPad 4 to replace my first-gen iPad. Thanks :) Happy Holidays everyone!
An iPhone 5, because after having traded my Galaxy S for an HTC Wildfire, I really miss having a big screen for apps and video. Not to mention this phone only comes with 130 mb memory and I am in need of an upgrade. It also doesn't help that everywhere I turn I see someone with an iPhone and I can't help but cry silently to myself and wallow in my self pity. Help me fit in with all my friends so I can enjoy using my phone as much as everyone around me.
-Merry Christmas
4 weeks, 4 products, 4 family members:

I would love a new iPad. It will allow me a way to be able to communicate with my Parents who live all the way in FL. I don't have a computer since i can't even afford one.

This will change my life! Thank You.
I'd get a new iPad Mini for my wife. She like to surf the web and Twitter while on the sofa in the evenings, but it looks so sad with her on her tiny iPhone. She needs a larger screen, and I think the iPad Mini would be the perfect form factor.

Hey guys,
I'm Alex Nguyen and I'm hoping to win an iPhone 5 32GB White, or an iPod touch 5 PRODUCT (RED), or an iPad mini. I will probably will be donating an ipad mini to someone in need at an orphanage. I would want an iPad mini because I would donate it to an orphanage. I would want the iPod touch so I could use it for school. You might remember me winning the iPod nano from the last contest. I did not put the iPod nano towards my own use though. I donated it to a kid who was homeless in an orphanage. If I can win this, I'll be able to donate an iPad mini to someone at an orphanage.
Anyways, winning this contest could make my Christmas complete this year. And maybe even forever.
iMore is awesome for doing this. I hope I can win.
Thanks everyone at iMore,
Alex Nguyen
May the best person win!
Hope I win! Good luck everyone else and to me also!
Happy holidays!

So difficult to pick between the mini and the new iPad! Guess I'd have to go with the mini and gift it to my aunt. She's been dying to get her hands on an iPad for a long time now!
My choice would be an iPad. I am a first time apple product owner with my iPhone 5 and am discovering all the things you can do for children with special needs. I have an autistic 3 year old and there are so many activities that aren't available on the iPhone, but are available on the iPad, that would be great activities and treatment for him. We won't be able to afford one for awhile.
I want this to help me put down for an iMac :)

B&J's Coffeee Heath Bar Crunch ice cream. Price Chopper is running a BOGO special this week, and with the election today... I may need something to tide me over while watching the returns come in tonight.
Mashed potatoes! Beyond that... coffee ice cream and ginger ale.
homemade chocolate chip cookies.
Pizza, bread, Indian food, and chocolate
Homemade chicken and dumplings, my mom's beef vegetable soup, and freshly baked yeast bread with butter.
The family spaghetti recipe, any stew, hot & sour soup.
For something quick my choice is a grilled cheese sandwich, preferably with a mix of cheeses.
For a longer cook meal: lasagna, made a day ahead so all those wonderful spices, sauces, meat, mushrooms, and veggies meld together.
I meant to take the high road.... but I missed the exit.
A good meatloaf and homemade mashed potatoes.
Since I'm Chinese, steamed pork buns. Soup dumplings are even better!
Cheesecake! Specifically I love the fudge brownie cheesecake from Cheesecake Bistro. It is a normal slice of cheesecake but with big pieces of brownie sprinkled all over and hot fudge drizzled on top with whipped cream. YUM!
"Michelle would never be caught with sausage grease staining her Vera Wang." - rfisher
For me it depends on what I need comforting from. If it's general feeling blah / tired / ennui, then definitely mac & cheese. Hands down. If I need more instant gratification, then cheese-on-toast.
But for comfort from a cold/flu, nothing beats soup. Creamy squash or tomato, or tomato rice, or miso, or broccoli & corn, or yam & coconut, or hot and sour ... or just about any other kind of vegetarian soup will do.
I don't consider chocolate a comfort food. It's a basic food group.
Chocolate does nothing for me. Sure, the odd brownie packed with walnuts and topped with fudgy icing is enjoyable, but given the choice, I'd take a bag of chips and tub of sour cream any day.
But I'm with those who support vodka as a food group - and don't forget the health benefits when fruit juices are added.
The potato: French fried, mashed, baked, scalloped, au gratin, chips etc......
You two are making my mouth water. So Jenny what vegie is your mother in law?

France has deployed 700 troops in and around Paris, Interior Minister Manuel Valls revealed Tuesday in the latest indicator of mounting concern over potential reprisals for military intervention in Mali. Leaders of the militant Islamist groups under attack in the West African state have warned that France has "opened the doors of hell" by unleashing its warplanes and have called on fellow extremists to hit back on French soil.

Weather & Climate Change

Carl Mears has been studying the weather for years. Now he's trying to do something about it.
Carl Mears will be the featured speaker at a community gathering June 30 at 5:30 pm at the Universalist Unitarian Church in Santa Rosa. His topic: "What's really going on with the Climate? A scientists' perspective."
For some, the phrase "climate change" has supplanted "global warming" as this issue is discussed. Mears says he understands the scientific reasoning behind that, but dislikes the political connotations.

Runaway teen found safe
Published: Saturday, February 16, 2013 at 3:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, February 16, 2013 at 12:31 p.m.
A teen boy missing for nearly a week has been found safe in Santa Rosa Saturday.
Delano Primo Urrea, 15, ran away from his father's residence in southwest Santa Rosa on Sunday, his mother said.
A Facebook page titled "Help Find Delano Urrea" reported shortly after noon Saturday that the teen had been found in Santa Rosa. No details were immediately available.
Delano was last seen at his father's home, where he lives part time, around 3:15 Sunday afternoon, said his mother, Petaluma resident Amy Ebbesen Favia.
"We're very worried," she said Friday afternoon. "No one wants their child to go missing."
Ebbesen didn't disclose why Delano ran away but said this was not the first time it's happened.
Since Jan. 1, he's left home several times, she said. She always filed a missing person report, but Delano always returned on his own within a day, tired and hungry but unharmed and not saying where he'd been.
Delano attended junior high in Petaluma. He's now a freshman transferring to Sierra School in Santa Rosa.

H.Res. stands for House simple resolution.
A simple resolution is used for matters that affect just one chamber of Congress, often to change the rules of the chamber to set the manner of debate for a related bill. It must be agreed to in the chamber in which it was introduced. It is not voted on in the other chamber and does not have the force of law.
The resolution's title was written by its sponsor.
We don't have a summary available yet.
The summary below was written by the Congressional Research Service, which is a nonpartisan division of the Library of Congress.
The summary below was written by the House Republican Conference, which is the caucus of Republicans in the House of Representatives.
No summary available.
The House Democratic Caucus does not provide summaries of bills.
So, yes, we display the House Republican Conference's summaries when available even if we do not have a Democratic summary available. That's because we feel it is better to give you as much information as possible, even if we cannot provide every viewpoint.

Ive read too many posts, here and on other forums, about the Sennheiser HD650 stock cable being less than it should be. So I decided to build my own. (Sorry, no pictures maybe next time!)
I bought Cardas HPSC and GRQ SS connectors. The HPSC are the can connectors and the GRQ SS is the ¼ plug. I dont normally plug the vendors I buy from unless they do something special but I bought these from Dedicated Audio LLC out of Arizona. No hassle, good communication. I ordered two of each of these and they were drop shipped from Cardas. There was some miscommunication and I only got one set of the HPSCs. Within 30 minutes of emailing Dedicated Audio on a Friday evening I had a reply and shortly after an assurance that Cardas was drop shipping another set to me. I also bought 15 feet of ¼ tech flex. For wire I used 10 feet of Mogami Neglex 2534 which Ive used for interconnects in the past. Some ¼ and 3/8 heat shrink from my stock to finish things off with. About $75 in parts. You will need an ohm meter if you use this wire its only two colors for four wires.
My headphone amp is a Bottlehead Crack with the Speedball upgrade. I also upgraded many of the internal components as I built it. If youre curious head over to Bottlehead and in the Gallery forum - a couple pages in now youll find my Crack on Speed with Blueballs. Im using an Amperex 7316 tube in the 12AU7 spot and a heavy duty Raytheon 6080WC in the other socket. I really didnt have any issues with the sound of the HD650s but I needed to hear for myself.
I started on the ¼ plug side and my first confusion was that the plug has no connection for the right side positive its just a barrel! If youve not worked with the Cardas line youll also find that what they provide to solder the ground to can be tricky if you dont keep things smooth. I usually dent the inner ring and solder into the dent. This time I got over zealous and broke the ring it actually worked out better as I could pull the ground wires into the gap to solder. I used about ½ of the shield wire and the two blue wires for ground. Measure out the left and right positive so that the right will have insulation on it as it goes over the left. Solder in the left (center) first. For the right side I just spread the fine wires from the Mogami over the barrel and soldered it down. Because the Cardas and Mogami are good quality it took and was easy to do. You MUST insure this is not a cold joint. Tug on it a bit to see if it holds I just hook a small screwdriver under the wire and pull up slightly. I then combined the shield wire and the two blue conductors and soldered them into the gap I made. I put two layers of 1/4 heat shrink up into the plug as far as I could one at a time. Then I worked the tech flex slightly over the connector then worked the barrel over this and screwed it down. The tech flex is now inside the barrel. I dinged the tech flex a bit working the outside of the barrel over that last inch or so where the heat shrink had built up over the Mogami so I pulled about 6 of 3/8 heat shrink right up to the barrel and heated it down. Once you have all this done there is no going back into the barrel without messing up a great deal of heat shrink and tech flex so make sure all is well before you begin to pull and heat.
Notice I didnt keep track of which signal wire went where Ill ohm that out when I get to the other ends.
I cut the tech flex back about 12 inches from the end of where the Mogami ended. My stock cables have about 9 of hang. I heated a small piece of heat shrink over this end of tech flex to keep it in place. I removed the outside insulation and all of the shield up to this point in the wire and untwisted the two pairs. Mogami wire has a center piece of plastic that youll need to cut off as well. Get out the ohm meter. The tip of the plug is the left channel, the center is right and the base is ground. Because both blue wires are ground it wont matter which of these you mate to the white wires. Once I determined which wire went where I used a small piece of heat shrink to mark each side red to right, black to left. I kept the twists intact for each pair and put enough heat shrink on these pairs to leave about 1 at the connector end. Red on right, black on left. I put tech flex on these two pairs next (the red heat shrink is now just barely visible). In order to pull ¼ inch heat shrink over this (to secure the base) tape the ends at the connector down tightly and the heat shrink will go right over without messing up the tech flex. I finished the junction with some 3/8 heat shrink a couple of layers to pull it all together. I would not strip less than 12 of wire back by the time youve got this split looking good youll have lost an inch or two due to heat shrink. Now I carefully pulled the tape off of the other end and put some heat shrink here to hold down the tech flex. I used my red/black combo again but its not necessary because you can see the red heat shrink through the tech flex.
The HPSC connectors do NOT have any cover over the connectors, the plastic is decent but not something you can stand your soldering iron on for a long time. Youve got to measure carefully. The small pin is the signal pin (white wire), the large pin is ground (blue wire). I had to take one of my ends apart after the work was done because I had a cold joint that broke free thats no fun - so take your time and insure those pins are done correctly. I used two layers of 3/8 heat shrink to cover the open area after my soldering was done. You can slip this over the connectors if you forget to put it over the wire before soldering. There is a ridge on the HPSC connectors you can heat shrink just slightly over this but not too far as it will not connect to the headphones correctly another learning experience!
Issues Mogami wire is very flexible but the tech flex stiffens it up and Im not loving it. The tech flex can also be heard if you move around. Hard to describe but if you run your fingers up something with ridges youll hear it if its smooth you probably wont. I wont put tech flex on the next version. It does look nice and clean but
The ¼ Cardas is nice but I dont like how it finished. You cant get 1 heat shrink over it so Ill get something larger in a 3:1 shrink and see if I can get more of a strain relief on it.
The sound (why this was done in the first place) OMG!! These arent broken in by any means and the bass is over the top. Separation of voice/instruments seems much better. Its a cleaner sound by far over stock. Im not going to rave on until theyve got more time on them but I doubt that the stock cables will ever be used again!
Was it worth $75 and a couple of hours? Absolutely.

Its somewhat unusual these days to see the trade deadline looming and the Angels not making any moves, but in all likelihood thats whats going to happen this season. Los Angeles is mired in mediocrity while Texas and Oakland appear to be running away with the division.
Of course Arte Moreno (a more likeable imitation of a Steinbrenner) could continue to funnel money in an attempt to right the ship immediately, but not only does that seem like a lost
I used to be the worst kind of person in the world. A Yankees fan that didn't live in New York. As lewd and annoying as they might be, you can't blame a New Yorker for being a Yankees fan -- let's face it, their other option is the Mets. But if you don't live in New York, and your family isn't from there, it's simple douchebaggery that makes a person cheer for that team. But I did.
It all started because the Twins broke my heart by trading Rick Aguilera -- twice -- and fell into
Twitter and the Blogosphere broke with the news today that the Twins had acquired Matt Rizzotti from the Phillies for "cash considerations". This move is in lieu of the minor leagues being one first baseman short now that Chris Parmelee is likely to break camp with the Twins due to his inspired play that's carried over since late last year.
The bigger
Well, nothing better than Spring Training to get me back here to write something.
Despite arriving in Florida on Wednesday in time to head straight from the airport to catch the game against the Phillies, I decided to head down to Naples, get some Cuban food, and just relax on the beach instead.
Thursday, however, I got up early and went to check out
Sticking with the running theme of celebrating pitchers & catchers reporting -- a Shakespearian sonnet:
The grassy fields of Hammond Stadium
Are live this morn with sound of bat and glove.
Walkways and bleachers filled with fandom's hum
As sunlight and hope stream from skies above.
Mauer stretches and tests an achy knee,
While Cisco winds and loosens up his arm,
And Revere runs the fields smiling with glee

Ontario is a province located in east-central Canada, the largest by population and second largest, after Quebec, in total area. Ontario is bordered by the provinces of Manitoba to the west and Quebec to the east, and five U.S. states (from west to east): Minnesota, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania (the latter two across Lake Erie) and New York to the south and east. Most of Ontario's border with the United States runs along water. The capital of Ontario is Toronto, Canada's most populous city and metropolitan area.
