Or how it won't make a difference. /sarcasm
Anyway, I was bored today since as a government contractor, we get like every other Monday off for some holiday or other.
Went over to the local shop I like so much and chatted music, pre-amps, gear repair and of course speakers (They carry ProAc, JBL, JL Audio, B&W, NHT, Pioneer EX, Magico, Peachtree Audio and TAD...plus they have PSB and Era on consignment atm).
Before I left, I grabbed a few Nordost Shiva power cables...knowing they won't make any difference of course...and 35 feet of AudioQuest Flex series 14/2.
Came home, changed into some lounge pants and a t-shirt, gathered up a bunch of stuff and the end result can be seen below...
(2) 1.5m speaker cables for my Monitor 70s up front
(2) 1 ft jumpers for the Monitor 70s
(2) 10 ft speaker cables for my 15TLs
I also experimented a bit. The jumpers are covered with 550 paracord. I like the finish but it is a bitch to work with at anything larger than 14g wire.
I am in the process of finding larger diameter paracord as I would like to use it in place of the techflex I used on the longer cables.
I also got too small of diameter techflex but I will remedy that with my next order.
I already have some friends wanting me to make up cables that match their decor. Ugh...lol. Didn't want to do this beyond myself but it is sort of fun and relaxing at the same time.
I definitely prefer the bananas on the shorter cables over the ones on the longer ones. The knurled gold covers look better imho. But they are also $8/pr vs $22 for 15 pairs of the others.
Anyway, here they are. Feel free to be critical...I know they don't make a difference anyway. LOL

PORTLAND - Kids at Parkrose Middle School made a commercial with Trail Blazers superstar Damian Lillard that has begun appearing on television nationwide.
The commercial is part of an anti-bullying campaign.
Lillard said he saw bullying first-hand growing up and now that he's got the attention of fans, he wants to be part of the solution.
Students wore matching T-shirts with the word "Respect" on the front and the number "0" on the back in honor of their special guest when the point guard visited their school earlier this month.
Students erupted in cheers as Lillard entered the school cafeteria.
"The biggest thing for (kids) to see is that even if someone looks fine and happy on the outside, when it comes to bullying it hurts them," said Lillard.
Lillard is the Blazers' ambassador for the team's new anti-bullying campaign urging people to respect each other and pass it on. His message resonated with students, like seventh grader, Jamen Crittenden.
"I hope a lot of people learn their lesson and treat other people how they want to be treated," said Crittenden.
It's a message they've heard from others, like teachers and other adults. But coming from Lillard?
"A lot of people want to be like him, so they'll probably try not to bully," observed seventh grader, Pualani Walter.
"He's taking time out of own day when he could be doing anything else and I appreciate that," added eighth grader Rahda Kannan.
Lillard said he appreciated the opportunity to speak with the students.
"There could have been a bully here today, there could have been someone here who's been bullied," said Lillard. "So when I see how they've reacted to me today, it's positive."
The special commercial urges everyone to take a stand against bullying.

1 of 261:
Kanye West revealed at a concert on Dec. 30, 2012 that he and Kim Kardashian are expecting their first child together. Kardashian's rep later confirmed the news.
Kardashian herself said in a post on her website the following day: 'It's true!! Kanye and I are expecting a baby. We feel so blessed and lucky and wish that in addition to both of our families, his mom and my dad could be here to celebrate this special time with us. Looking forward to great new beginnings in 2013 and to starting a family. Happy New Year!!! Xo.'
The reality star and Los Angeles socialite and West went public with their romance in April. Kardashian is currently still married to her second husband, NBA player Kris Humphries. She had filed for divorce in October 2011 -- 72 days after their wedding, which was filmed for an E! special. He is seeking an annulment, claiming their marriage was a fraud, which she denies.
(Pictured: Kanye West and Kim Kardashian attend Denise Rich's annual Angel Ball, which raised $3.7 million for cancer research, at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City on Oct. 22, 2012.)

I was talking to guys who like to do the SPL stuff last night. They build these gigantic boxes with massive slots to pressurize the car. But they tune the boxes to the resonant frequency of the car. They get the resonant frequency by placing a 10 inch sub in the car and running test tones and measuring with a microphone when the highest response level is and then tune to that frequency.
I'm honestly not sure how that will achieve what they want which is higher SPL and they weren't explaining it well so my understanding of it is weak at best. I've always built enclosures to the resonant frequency of the subwoofer in the enclosure, not the resonant frequency of the car.
Needless to say, they want to try it my way and see what makes more noise.
The way I see it, you want that sub working at its peak efficiency in the enclosure. If it is operating at it's peak efficiency, it is using the power you are providing it the best that it can and it is moving air through that vented box as best as it can. In order to do that, you want to build the enclosure and tune it to a frequency that is smack in the middle of the subs response peak. That would be Fs. So if the sub's Fs is 40 Hz, you build a box that will be tuned to a frequency somewhere between say 37 Hz and 43 Hz. That will give you maximum performance from the sub because you efficiency will be high.
Now a concept I don't think they totally grasped was port flow vs. port velocity and what inertia of the cylinder of air in the port has to do with it. They have gigantic slots which move air by sheer volume alone. They are not understanding how you can get similar air flow with a few smaller ports. The big fat slot has low velocity but large volume. The small, round tube has low volume but velocity that can be as much as 10 times as fast. But when you are going for big SPL, you need to make sure that you aren't moving that air in the tube so fast that it cavitates insides the tube and reduces port efficiency and overall velocity.
Is any of this making sense?
Anyway, if some can explain to me that car resonance thing, I'd appreciate it.

errrr..... that is basically just saying the ends justify the means, which you just said wasn't true. Seeing only one path to a good goal doesn't suddenly make that path moral. For example, suppose I am a deranged individual, and the only thing that can make me happy is killing people. Being happy is a good goal. The fact that my only path of reaching there is slaughtering others doesn't suddenly make my killing spree okay.

Placing a table next to Olive, placing something REEEALLY heavy and large and then pushing it off of the table onto her head? I wonder if you just can't have harmful intentions. But then maybe in an uncroaked could do it?

Kreistor wrote:First, it's not a goal to feel good, because feeling good is not a permanent state. World peace is a permanent state: once achieved, it does not need to be re-achieved over and over.
In this case, since the Means are the Status Quo (ie War and War), the Means are no different and thus not making things worse. The Means, when no more vile than what is currently happening, cannot be worse, and so cannot be a moral restriction to trying to end a vile status quo.
In other words, when your choices are:
1. permanent war
2. war with an end
war with an end is the moral choice.
Present a 3rd viable option and that can change.

Also, leading uncroaked in a dance fight requires a master class Necromancer. Wanda is surely not yet master class.
However, back to the future at Jetstone, recall that Wanda's "Magenta" costume was for a dance fight. I assume she can also lead decrypted as well as uncroaked in a dance fight.

Since that is not a definition of a goal I am familiar with (having to effect permanent, enduring change as opposed to simply a desired outcome),and given your follow up arguments, it sounds like what you meant is more "this particular end justifies their means" as opposed to "a good goal inherently -> means are good". Which I am unsure of; the details of their plan are sufficiently un-revealed that we don't know 1) what the extra costs actually are and 2) how likely their plan is to work. Both are necessary with pretty high exactness to say that their end will justify their means (I am including the expected duration of the peace they achieve as part of #2).
"this particular end justifies their means"
Kreistor wrote:"The ends justify the means" assumes that the means are worse than not trying to achieve that end would be.
If the Florists could gain their End by buying an ice cream cone, there would be no issue about ends and means. The means are much better for trying to end war (buying the ice cream cone) than for not (sitting back and letting everyone kill each other forever).
There is a second way to achieve an end to war: kill EVERYONE on Erfworld. If everyone is dead, there is no War. The problem here is that no one benefits from the Peace, since there is no one at all. In this case, the ends are achieved, but the means are more vile. A life at war is better than no life at all, to an Erfworlder. (Maybe not to some of us, but I'm in the "I'll make war if someone puts a gun to my head and I have no way to kill that person back" camp.) But it is a temporary victory, anyway: barbarians will pop, no memory of the previous wars will have been retained, and it will all start again."this particular end justifies their means"
Not even close. The means are no different regardless of whether the Florists try or don't try. If they try to end the war, they make war. If they don't try to end the war, they make war. The means, when trying and not trying to achieve a goal, are exactly the same. You do not have to justify doing something you're going to anyway, but only with a change in motivation.
Motivation is the only difference. There is no change in means. It's not better means: it's not worse means. It is the SAME means.
If you are vilifying them for making war to end war, you can vilify them for making war when not trying to end war, which is what they did before summoning Parson. So vilify them and stop reading the comic, because to you, they can never be good: the world doesn't let them.
To me, trying to end war is a noble end. And I agree with them that there is only one means to get there -- total victory. Since there is no other means, and it is exactly what they would be doing anyway, it is the only way to make the Erfworld a better place.
BLANDCorporatio wrote:Kreistor wrote:I have always been of the belief that the treal Conspiracy behind this is the Predictamancers. I just don't find their intent to create Peace worthy of everyone else's accusations of manipulation and evil. Manipulating everyone into not killing each other isn't vile, to me.
I thought you were asking about the Predictamancer stuff, and I presumed to know why various people (me, or Housellama calling "every Predictamancer we've met is an inusfferable git" etc) were less than warm about that caster group.
BLANDCorporatio wrote:If you meant to ask about Florists then I have no idea. It didn't seem to me that "teh forumz" assumed a poo-poo stance at them, with the possible recent exception of atalex. It may well be that "we"'ll decide Florists are insufferable gits too, but there's hardly a consensus forming in that direction right now.

Smashing the chillaxe should be an option. If groping genitals is not an attack taking an instrument should be another option. If Tommy is getting action with Olive the chillaxe is probably not even being held.

I rented this only because I love Vivi Anne (in spite of her only fucking her dweeb boyfriend JJ Michaels). However, Jewel's scene is pretty impressive. Other than that, nothing noteworthy.
Most of the scenes in this one are pretty weak, but the scene at the end with "Jasmin" is actually Jeanie Rivers in one of her first scenes (with Jon Dough), and she fucking nails it. I can't believe everyone is saying this video is boring and not singling this scene out. This is one of my favorite all time scenes. No way when she is on top of him that you can tell me that she isn't getting into it.
Rent for that scene alone...it elevates the flick to four stars by itself.
Sure, it's not up to current standards, but porn in America was seriously on life support towards the turn of the millennium. When this came out, it was fresh and fun and the girls were cute. Maybe not the most intense sex, but it was a good change of pace. Of course, ANY video with Kristina Black (Taylor Sands) is worth a watch, and while Aurora Snow would become a better actress, she is lovely and natural here. Eva Moore's scene is good, too. Worth a rent if you want something light and find the girls cute.
Gauge is always a draw for me, but man are her scenes better when they are with someone other than her then-BF. Trailer trash, dude! The rest of it is mildly amusing at times, but the sex scenes weren't anything special. I think #2 is a little better, from what I have seen of the previews.
I saw this movie in a Pussycat Theatre when it first came out with my ex-wife. At the time, I thought pioneering XXX was stuff like Cecil Howard, Alex deRenzy, and Henri Pachard. In hindsight, I still feel that way. I can't put my finger on it, but in spite of many great ladies of that time being in the cast, it just feels sleazy. And the whole thing with Jack Baker is just an embarrassment.
Thank God for John Leslie coming along two years later with Night Shift Nurses and starting a better trend.
Give John Leslie credit for doing something different. Between him and Stagliano and Andrew Blake, porn bridged the gap between the late 80's, when shot on film was pretty much dead and people didn't know what to make with shot on video, and the mid 90's, where the Europeans showed the way to the current well shot wall to wall that is the norm in modern porn.
I remember I saw Selena Steele in a jack shack shortly after this movie had been out on video, and it was totally hot. She is a sweetheart, and although her acting is a bit wooden, the sex was pretty good for what I would call a "classic". Yeah, the makeup is 80's hangover, but Leslie did the movie right, and there are several hot sex scenes. Definitely is a top representative of that era of porn.
If you love natural bodied teens shot on video and just naturally being sexy in a relaxed casual video, this is good stuff. I love Violet Blue and Ann Marie. Ah, these were good times. :)
I wanted to see some of the girls of a while back, so I rented this. Big mistake. Amazing how far porn has come in a few years. They were still getting a grip at this point, and it often looks like a bad German torture vid, despite the talent involved. Plues, most of the pops are lame. Sigh. Don't bother.
Nikki Dial was one of the most beautiful women ever in porn. Because porn in the early 90's was so lame, it is easy to forget that, but this is a good reminder. Who wouldn't cream in their jeans with those eyes looking at you? Fuck! Good scenes, believable plot, good chemistry. Not as graphic as today's porn, but it didn't get much better than this in the early 90's.
This compilation series found it's stride in #2. This one isn't quite there yet...seems a bit hodgepodge, and in spite of the girls, the scenes aren't that interesting.

Ok, I just had to switch links for the feed.
OMG, the RTE feed just died in the middle of HMQ's speech!!!

Which Tiara and other jewelery/decorations is HM wearing?
It looked like a Celtic harp-shaped brooch.
Here's a link to a close-up video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwaqpumuDds
She was also wearing one of her mystery necklaces. The picture of the closeup I linked to was taken when she was in Singapore in 2006, and since she tends to wear gifts from that country during official visits, it's speculated that it was a gift from Singapore.

Edited to add...An article about the rumoured ill health of HM King Juan Carlos of Spain.
Monsters and Critics ~ Growing concern in Spain over King Juan Carlos' health
I'd heard about the removal of the lung tumour, but thought he was on the mend, so was shocked when I saw the pictures of the Celebrations welcoming Spain's Soccer/Football Team home after their triumph at last year's World Cup in South Africa. Not only was his colour bad, but he looked incredably frail as well. Any pictures of him since then have been the same. At least the ones I've seen.
He's a man I deeply respect for how he's helped Spain transistion from a Dictatorship into a Democracy. It's so sad to see him looking so ill these days.

The New York Yankees are confident that Tanaka will be making many back pages by producing strong performances but perhaps not right away. So as they formally introduced the 25-year-old Tuesday in their biggest press conference since signing Hideki Matsui in 2002, the Yankees are trying to reign in those extremely high expectations and offer a more realistic assessment. That is why general manager Brian Cashman made an appearance on ESPN radio recently and stated that Tanaka is a No. 3 starter, perhaps the most expensive third starter ever. It's a tone that he re-iterated Tuesday in his remarks while offering further explanation. "This is a high-end asset that's available and it's obviously got some risk because he's transitioning from Japan," Cashman said. "So we've spoken about those difficult adjustments that are necessary. He has a great deal of ability and we can be getting more than a three. Maybe it's a two. Maybe it's a one at some point but I think because of the adjustments that are necessary, because of the contract." Tanaka, who arrived with a seven-year, $155 million contract, was confident in his first press conference in New York. "When I take the mound, I feel that I would like to win every single game," Tanaka said through an interpreter. "Being an ace is something that not myself but the other people label. So basically what I want to do is go out there and compete and do my best." Those are words to the Yankees' ears where it's championship or bust every season, a fact made evident by Cashman saying: "This is Yankee big, this is Steinbrenner big" during the televised portion of the press conference to Yankee fans who share those expectations. Still there's a reality based on many factors. "I'm also trying to honestly prepare the reality of, for our fan base," Cashman said. "I know that because the contract is what it is, the expectations are going to be something, especially on the front end, that I want to alter to some degree, or try to. It's better to have an honest, realistic dialogue with your fans that you run through the media. Whether anybody wants to disagree, that's fine. Or agree, that's fine too. "I want to make sure that people know how difficult this game is over here, and that there should be expectations of growing pains. Just like when I signed players from other clubs and they come to New York from other markets here in the states, there's growing pains. I just want to make sure to remind everybody, even though they might not want to hear it." So the obvious question is if he's a No. 3 starter, why all the money -- and the answer is simple. The amount of 25-year-old pitchers with outstanding numbers that become free agents are rare and after getting years of glowing scouting reports coming across his desk, it was time for Cashman and the Yankees to seize the opportunity. "There's a lot of players internationally in Cuba and Japan that come through," Cashman said. "Those reports, they're really impressive but those players don't really become available in their prime years, so a lot of players that you go 'wow if this player ever becomes available, we've got to jump all over this guy.' "Sometimes they never become available. Sometimes when they become available it's on the back end of their careers later on, much later. But in his case, he's 25 and he's in his prime and he became available in a unique circumstance in the posting system." None of those international players have ever gone 24-0 -- as he did last year in Japan, along with a 1.27 ERA. But many of them coming from Japan have had to make the adjustment of gripping the heavier baseball in the major leagues, pitching every five days and carrying the weight of their country when taking the mound. "That was pretty normal in Japan," Tanaka said. "I don't have regrets doing that. As for the ball, I'm going to have to adjust to that ball and I can't really overthink right now. That's the ball I'm going to be using and I just have to make the adjustment." "One thing that I feel like I've seen from Japanese players is they feel a little bit more weight representing their country," manager Joe Girardi said. "They kind of pave the way for the next guy and the next guy and I think that trying to temper down those expectations of what you have to do is important and for me the biggest thing is just be yourself." It's a challenge that Tanaka says he embraces and the Yankees believe his presence is comparable to Orlando Hernandez, who was 12-4 in his first year after defecting from Cuba in 1998 and pitched on three straight championship teams. Tanaka is the third starting pitcher the Yankees have signed directly from Japan but unlike the 1997 and 2007 signings of Hideki Irabu and Kei Igawa, the scouting and things to gauge the pitchers on has drastically changed. Back then, the Yankees didn't have the WBC to use as a guide, their independent scouting service was spotty and trips to Japan were much less frequent. "There are some things that help close the gap," Cashman said. "But there's still a gap, and there's still at some point in the assessment where a leap of faith after you make an informed decision and we've made an informed decision that's certainly an expensive risk but we're trying to close the gap as best we possibly could and we're certainly hoping for good results."

Seminole County Parents Concerned About Rezoning Proposals
January 10, 2013 | WMFE - The Seminole County School Board is holding meetings throughout the county this week to discuss rezoning proposals intended to relieve overcrowding at some of the county's elementary schools.
More than 20,000 students could potentially be affected. The board will hold another meeting tonight at Lake Brantley High School in Altamonte Springs.
Seminole County is considering rezoning at 28 of its 36 elementary schools.
Because of shifting demographics, some of those schools are only partially full while others are overcrowded.
Tammy Potosky is president of the Seminole County Council PTA. She says parents are often reluctant to move their kids to a new school.
"When you have your child at a certain school, most likely your neighborhood school, it's hard to even imagine your kids in a different school with different teachers, different administrators and it IS tough." Potosky said.
The school board solicited online suggestions from parents over the Christmas holiday break and received more 150 proposals.
Rezoning board members sorted through some of those suggestions last night at meetings in Sanford and in Winter Springs.

Recent reviews:
May 8, 2014 - I was very satisfied with this pendant and chain. The colors were absolutely beautiful! It was purchased as a gift and the recipient also loved it - great piece of jewelry; wish I had bought one for myself also.... still may.
March 11, 2014 - I love dichroic jewelry. There is something mesmerizing as you stare into it. I would have liked the colors shown but I knew each one would be different. I had to buy a second one of these as my neighbor begged my first one away.Both of mine are shades of red and yellow. Very pretty and I love the reminder with the tree of life.
February 12, 2014 - Not happy with the color of mine....looks like the background was painted with gold. If it is iridescent, certainly not much. Tree does not even show up against this gold. Nothing like what is pictured.
December 21, 2013 - Gave this to my sister for a Christmas present. She absolutely loved it! Love the vibrant colors
September 4, 2013 - I have bought 4 of these. The last one is the prettiest yet. But you need to know none of them come even close to the coloring in the picture shown. I do like them, but I'd really like one that looks like the picture.
Artisan: DichroDreams
In 2003 Johana Vazques was a single mom in Guadalajara struggling to support five children on her own when she heard about Dichrodreams -- a local enterprise which taught locals the art of dichroic glassmaking. Johana entered the training program and was soon making beautiful jewelry. She began earning a living wage, and her family's future changed forever.
Johana puts it this way: "Through my hard and skilled work I have been able to give food, shelter, education, and medical attention to my five kids. Two of the older ones now work in the company. It has been a world of opportunities for all of us."
Iridescent dichroic glass is made by combining crystal and metal at high heat, an art form that originated in ancient Rome. The artisans of Dichrodreams took the craft a step further by incorporating sterling silver into the mix in 1999, experimenting with new techniques. The result is an exceptional work of art. Today Dichrodreams jewelry is sold in 55 countries, making it a leader in the dichroic glass and silver jewelry industry.

Seahawk Netters Sting Aztecs
Courtesy: UNCW Athletic Communications
Release: 01/30/2010
PALO ALTO, Calif. - Junior Michael Pereira and sophomore Ryan Ybarra each won in singles and teamed up to win at No. doubles as No. 57 UNC Wilmington knocked off No. 44 San Diego State, 5-2, in men's tennis action at the ITA Division I Kick-Off Weekend on Saturday at Stanford's Taube Family Tennis Stadium.
The Seahawks improved to 2-1 on the young season with the win over the Aztecs. SDSU, meanwhile, dropped to 0-3 to start the season.
"I'm really pleased with how our team responded after a tough loss yesterday to Stanford," said third-year UNCW head coach Mait Dubois. "San Diego State is a very solid team and we took a stride from that experience. We won 3-of-4 in three-setters and really came up big in key situations."
UNCW took the early lead by winning the doubles point as Pereira and Ybarra topped SDSU's Achim Ceban and Juan Gomez, 8-5. In the second doubles position, freshman Max Ando Hirsch and junior Kinshuk Sharma, ranked 58th in the nation, delivered the doubles point with an 8-6 win over Luis Rattenhuber and Giovanni Vaglietti.
The two teams split the first two singles matches, with Rattenhuber taking a 6-1, 6-4 decision over Hirsh before freshman Kosta Blank drew UNCW even with a 6-1, 6-4 win over Tim Schulz van Endert.
Gomez, ranked 114th nationally, rallied in the third set to take the point from Sharma as SDSU built a 2-1 lead. That lead would be short-lived as Ybarra won in the fourth position and junior Illia Ziamtsou and Pereira posted wins in the second and first position to close out the match.
The Seahawks are idle until Feb. 6 when they entertain Elon in a 2 p.m. match.
