Audio Mastering +
It's not how loud you make it, it's how you make it loud! Mastering is an art and a science. Mastering is the final creative and technical step prior to pressing a record album (CD, DVD, cassette, or other medium). Compare mastering to the editor's job of taking a raw manuscript and turning it into a book. The book editor must understand syntax, grammar, organization and writing style, as well as know the arcane techniques of binding, color separation, printing presses and the like. Likewise, the Mastering engineer marries the art of music with the science of sound. The Craft… Read More -

The Pros and Cons of Recording and Mixing via Analog versus Digital This article has been revised and updated from an editorial counterpoint which appeared in Pro Sound News, January 1997. Here's a refreshing alternative perspective to what's going on in the studio scene for everyone from musicians to owners of project studios to large studios. Analog vs. Digital - The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly Doing analog audio in the sixties and seventies was hell. Most of us would like to throw our bias oscillators in the garbage.

Master the 2-channel art first Everyone is talking about multichannel sound. I have no doubt that well-engineered multi-channel recordings will produce a more natural soundfield than we've been able to achieve in our 2-channel recordings, but it amazes me how few engineers really know how to take advantage of good ol' fashioned 2-channel stereo. I've been making "naturalistic" 2-channel recordings for many years, and there are others working in the pop field who produce 2-channel (pop, jazz, even rock) recordings with beautiful depth and space. I'm rather disappointed in the sound of 2-channel recordings made by simple "pan-potted mono", the… Read More -

Use or Build your own Bitscope! Attention, Sherlock Holmes's of the audio world. You can use an ordinary oscilloscope (20 MHz or better) to see the bit activity of your digital processors, consoles and workstations. Steinberg's Wavelab and many other software programs have a bitscope meter as well. Once you install it, you'll find the bitscope is as essential in the modern-day digital studio as a phase meter. To learn more about how the bitscope has saved the day in studios, read our article, More Bits Please. These photos illustrate some typical bitscope displays.

Keeping Your Digital Audio Pure from First Recording to Final Master Part I Dither is not the most important technical detail to learn about, but if you want to get your digital audio done just right, then you should learn about dither. Especially if you want to learn why your digital reverb has been leaching the ambience out of your music, when it's supposed to be adding ambience. Or why your CDs don't sound as spacious as your 24 bit sources and want to avoid that veiled, dry, and lifeless feeling! Follow that Sample Let's start with a little lesson… Read More -

December 2007 I hesitate to remove this older article from our website, as it is still informative, but I highly recommend that those interested in the latest word on this subject please read the chapter on jitter in my new book.

All digital devices that have an input and an output can add jitter to the signal path. For example, Digital Domain's FCN-1… Read More -
Level Practices (Part 1) +
Part I: The 20th Century Dealing With Peaks Overs, levels, and headroom, how to get the most from your equipment Digital recording is simple--all you do is peak to 0 dB and never go over! And things remain that simple until you discover one plugin or processor telling you a signal peaks to -1 dB while another meter (e.g. in your DAW) shows an OVER level, yet your digital outboard processor tells you it just reaches 0 dB! This article will explore concepts of the digital OVER, machine meters, loudness, and take a fresh look at the common practices of… Read More -

Mixing Tips and Tricks +
The First Tip: Read all the articles on this web site! Here's one of the secrets of the mixing engineers To avoid squashing, if it doesn't sound loud enough to your ears, turn up the monitor! If you find that you've been forced to apply limiting or compression just to keep the meters from overloading, then you've been going about this backwards. Instead, turn down your individual mix levels several dB, then get rid of any compression you were using to "protect" the 2-mix. Now your mix is at a lowered meter level, so turn up your monitor gain to… Read More -

I. Picking the Right DAW "Faster, better, cheaper; pick only one of the three." This adage is truer than ever in the age of digital audio recording. Occasionally you can get two out of three, but never all three at once. As computer power has become cheaper, more companies call themselves "manufacturers of recording hardware." It's now possible for a couple of guys to "invent" a Digital Audio Workstation in their basement out of a computer, an audio board, some mail order hard disks, and a little software glue. There are many startup companies trying to sell you the latest… Read More -

There were a few surprises. Because the cruise industry has the capacity to dump huge loads of tourists into port at one time, some of the smaller ports were simply overwhelmed with a crush of people, and one could not escape the feeling, from time to time, of being part of a cattle-call. It was rather un-nerving to be part of such a large crowd, and one couldn't help but wonder how we hoards of tourists were perceived by the locals.
I expected, because I'd heard, that shore excursions booked through a cruise line are not a good value (e.g. marked up quite a bit over what one can negotiate independently). We'd done some research on this, and personally felt that what the cruise line tours offered was quite competitive. We were very satisfied.
We would probably not try to negotiate train travel in Italy on our own. We attempted to take the train instead of land transportation offered by the cruise line in two ports; Livorno and Naples. In both instances we found that negotiating train stations is a daunting task, made even more so by the fact that few Italians seem to speak much English. And, if you don't know to validate your train ticket before boarding (this is NOT made clear when purchasing your tickets, or clearly explained along the platforms, you may well be fined!
All in all, we felt we got what we paid for. A modestly priced European vacation, with lots of good food and ease of travel. And speaking of food; there is a LOT of food. Perhaps for that reason alone many fat people are attracted to cruises. Certainly there were a lot of fat folks on our cruise, so much that it was discomforting to see and a definite turn-off at meal times.
I wouldn't recommend one-port-a-day cruising for those who want more than a brief sample of what Europe has to offer. Nor would I recommend it for people who are uncomfortable being part of a LARGE crowd.

A bag equals two five-gallon buckets, one 10-gallon bucket or 60 lbs. of culled oysters in the shell.
Undersized oysters must be culled immediately upon harvest and returned to the reef from which they were harvested. Undersized oysters may number no more than five percent (by count) of unattached oysters per bag and no more than 15 percent (by count) attached (such that separation would destroy either oyster) per bag. Vessels connected together, such as towing, may only claim one bag limit all together.
Commercial and recreational harvest by any person during the same day is prohibited.
Bycatch from trawling or dragging any gear over a public oyster bar should be returned to the water as closely as possible to the beds where taken and transport and sale of bycatch or oysters taken intentionally is prohibited. Wholesale and retail dealers may not sell oysters unless they are labeled and traceable to the point of harvest.
Upon leaving an area, harvesters must pass through a monitoring station when in operation. Harvest on leased parcels is subject to the established rules unless otherwise exempted by the approved lease provisions.
Harvest from public reefs is prohibited from July 1 - Sept. 30, except as provided below.
In Wakulla, Dixie and Levy Counties, harvest is prohibited from June 1 - Aug. 31.
In Indian River County, harvest is prohibited within 75 feet of the shoreline of the Indian River, any canal bank or any privately owned submerged lands or dock without written permission of the owner.
In Volusia County, oysters harvested from an approved public bar may not be stockpiled onto a lease.

Plot & Details
A misfit snail with a need for speed strives to earn a slot in the Indy 500 in this adrenaline-charged adventure for the entire family. Turbo (voice of Ryan Reynolds) may live life at a snail's pace, but his dreams charge along at light speed. Whenever Turbo closes his eyes, he sees himself zooming past the checkered flag at the Indianapolis 500, and leaving all of his competitors in the dust. Unfortunately for Turbo, all of his fellow snails -- including his brother Chet (Paul Giamatti) -- seem to savor the slow life. Then, one day, it happens: Turbo is methodically making his way across a freeway overpass when he is suddenly sucked into the intake valve of a speeding muscle car. His molecular structure altered by the volatile nitrous oxide that fuels the car, Turbo gains the ability to travel at speeds up to 200 miles per hour. Turbo is in the midst of mastering his newfound ability when he and Chet are unexpectedly captured by Tito (Michael Peña) -- a California taco-stand proprietor who organizes snail races on the side. Tito quickly takes his two newest racers to Starlight Plaza, where all of the speed-freak snails await their next run on the track. It's there that Turbo makes some colorful new friends, and learns to have some fun while trash-talking the competition. But his adventure is still far from over, and by the time Turbo realizes that his dreams are finally within reach, his newfound family will be right there to cheer him past the finish line. Samuel L. Jackson, Luis Guzman, Bill Hader, and Snoop Dogg also lend their voices to this colorful adventure from the folks who brought you The Croods and Kung Fu Panda.

I was very fortunate to be asked to come join the team from North American Fisherman down in Florida a few weeks back. To say I was excited about the opportunity to go fish in Florida was an understatement. I felt like a little kid going on a new fishing adventure for the first time! I was a completely out of my element. Considering that I guide full time up here in the Midwest for freshwater species such as bass, trout, walleye's and muskies.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

A LOOK AT FALCON NUMBERS: Bowling Green's game one win on Monday at Western Michigan was the 400th Mid-American Conference regular-season victory for the Falcons. BG is also one win shy of recording the 1,200th triumph in school history. BG head coach Danny Schmitz is two wins away from #250 in his Falcon coaching career. The Falcons have won five in a row overall following a 3-2 win over Cleveland State on Tuesday in 11 innings. It was also their sixth win in their last seven to move above .500 mark for the first time this year. BG started the year 0-5-1, but is 13-7 in its last 20 games.
HOME RUN DERBY AT NIU: The Launching Pad' moved from Atlanta to DeKalb on Sunday as Ohio and Northern Illinois played Home Run Derby in the second game of their doubleheader. The two teams combined to hit nine homers in the Bobcats' 18-12 win over the Huskies. Ohio batters were responsible for six of them, three of which came off the bat of Chuck Lombardy. In addition to Lombardy, who went 5-for-5 with six RBIs in the contest, Mike Arbinger, Jeff Rook and Scott Brownlee also homered for Ohio.
BROCK IGNITES HUSKIES: Sophomore leadoff hitter John Brock is part of the reason why Northern Illinois has won nine of its last 13 games. Brock hit .667 last week with 10 hits in 15 at-bats and also scored 10 runs. The outfielder increased his batting average 67 points to .397, which is sixth in the league. Brock also added three stolen bases last week, improving his league-leading total to 16, and is on a nine-game hitting streak.
REMBIELAK BREAKS RECORD: Kent head coach Rick Rembielak (212-143-1) became the Golden Flashes' all-time winningest baseball coach when his team defeated Toledo 14-7 April 9, breaking the previous record of 208 set by Danny Hall (1988-93). In fact, Rembielak was Hall's assistant coach for each of his 208 victories.
MILESTONE FOR HERD PLAYERS: Marshall players Eric Pinkerton and Sean Reeder both moved up the career ladders in Thundering Herd history. Pinkerton, who had a four-hit doubleheader against UNC Asheville, became only the seventh player in school history to reach the 150-hit plateau. Pinkerton is two hits away from sixth place and is 22 shy of the top spot of 175, which is held by Greg Hill.
Reeder moved up to second all-time in career strikeouts with 235 following an eight strikeout performance against Ball State. The senior is 41 strikeouts shy of equaling J.R. Watts' total of 276.
THE DOUBLES MACHINE: Toledo senior Jason Stuecher smacked five two-baggers last week in six games, improving his season total to 12, which is third in the MAC. Stuecher had back-to-back games where he had a pair of doubles. In addition to the doubles, he drove in 10 runs and hit two home runs.
PAIR PICK UP VOTES: In the latest Baseball Weekly/ESPN Coaches Poll that was released on Monday, two MAC schools received votes. Miami, which had its five-game winning streak snapped last week, picked up three votes, while Central Michigan received one vote.
THE MULTIDIMENSIONAL ZIP: Akron junior outfielder Mark Malaska turned into a multidimensional factor that helped the Zips to a 4-2 mark last week. Malaska picked up his first win of the season on the mound with 1.1 innings of relief against Youngstown State last Tuesday, in addition to hitting .348 for the week with 11 runs batted in and eight runs scored. He also hit a pair of home runs and drove in six runs as part of a 4-for-5 day against Toledo.
PEREZ SHUTS DOWN MIAMI: Western Michigan sophomore Keith Perez fanned 11 Miami batters and scattered six hits over seven innings, helping the Broncos hand the RedHawks their first loss in league play. In league games, Perez sports a 1.93 ERA and has fanned 16 batters in 14 innings of work.
PAIR OF LEAGUE SHOWDOWNS: Three key league divisional battles take place this weekend, two in the East Division and one in the West Division. Undefeated Kent hosts Ohio, which won twice at Ball State on Monday, while Akron hosts Miami. In the West, division-leading Central Michigan travels to Ball State. The Chippewas are 14-8 away from home, while the Cardinals are 8-3 at home after it was swept by Ohio.
THOMAS SHINES FOR EMU: Eastern Michigan junior Vince Thomas enjoyed a 15-for-23 performance last week for the Eagles, who lost five ofsix games. Thomas, who had three home runs and three doubles, scored nine runs and drove in eight.

UPDATE 3-Ontario premier resigns, says party needs renewal
- Tweet
- Share this
* Premier makes surprise announcement one year after election
* Opposition leaders slam decision to adjourn legislature
* Ontario accounts for about 40 percent of Canadian economy
By Russ Blinch and Claire Sibonney
TORONTO, Oct 15 (Reuters) - Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty announced on Monday he was resigning as head of Canada's most populous province just one year after winning a third successive term, saying it was time for a renewal in leadership.
The province, which accounts for about 40 percent of Canada's economy, has been battling huge budget deficits and slow growth since its record shortfall of nearly C$25 billion ($25.58 billion) in 2009 during the global recession.
McGuinty, who will stay on until his Liberal party finds a successor, asked the provincial lieutenant governor to end the legislative session, which means work on all bills would come to an end.
"After 16 years as leader of the Ontario Liberal Party and after nine years as premier, it's time for renewal, it's time for the next Liberal premier," McGuinty said.
Provincial opposition leaders slammed the decision to adjourn the legislature because of a number of big issues facing the province, including battles with the public sector over wage freezes and controversy over the cancellation of two natural gas-powered electricity plants.
"I don't understand his decision to suspend the legislature," Tim Hudak, leader of the opposition Conservatives, told a news conference.
McGuinty's departure could mean Ontario will be going to the polls as early as next spring, according to political analysts.
The premier was asked by reporters whether he would run in the race now under way for the leadership of the federal Liberal party but said only, "I don't have any plans."
Dubbed by critics as the Teflon leader for his ability to escape crises, McGuinty became Leader of the Ontario Liberal Party in 1996 and led his party to a majority government in 2003 and in 2007. In 2011, his party managed only a minority government, meaning the government would need to broker deals with opposition parties to pass legislation.
Since winning re-election, McGuinty's Liberals have been dogged by scandals such as mismanagement of Ontario's air ambulance service and contempt charges against the energy minister for being slow to release documents related to the costly cancellations of the two gas-powered plants in the province. Ontario has been struggling with a high budgetary deficit but announced on Monday it was cutting its shortfall faster than projected, crediting higher-than-expected growth and tax revenues.
In its budget this spring, the government vowed to rein in public sector labor costs, halt corporate tax cuts and raise taxes on the wealthiest earners.
In its autumn economic statement, Ontario projected the 2012-13 deficit would be C$14.4 billion ($14.69 billion), down from the C$14.8 billion forecast in April.
It kept its 2013-14 and 2014-15 deficit forecasts at C$12.8 billion and C$10.1 billion, respectively.
The premier's resignation will also be watched by the province's creditors as debt rating agencies raise scrutiny of the province's finances.
" It adds an element of uncertainty to the implementation of the fiscal recovery plan as a new premier could have different priorities," Eric Beauchemin, managing director of public finance at the credit rating agency DBRS, told Reuters.
"Nonetheless we know that the province remains on track with its plan as reflected in the fall statement released today, which we find encouraging."

Household Hazardous Waste Collection Day is back, and we urge readers to take advantage of a cost-effective, environmentally friendly way of disposing of unwanted materials considered too hazardous to throw away with the regular trash.
Due to funding concerns, this community event skipped last year, so there's likely lots of articles in need of disposal. Among the items accepted from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., April 14 will be:
n Used oil and antifreeze
n Batteries
n Aerosol cans
n Florescent tubes
n Paint
Tires will not be accepted, but certainly the event will allow many homeowners to dispose of unwanted items in the best way possible. The annual community Paint Swap will be held the same day.
Household Hazardous Waste Collection/Paint Swap days have always been well utilized in the past. Organizers report as many as 3,000 gallons of paint being dropped off or swapped in past years.
Waste will not be accepted from commercial, industrial, government or agricultural sources. For all of the information about what can be dropped off and what cannot, go to www.wasteabate.org.
It's important that we recycle and reuse what we can, which is why the paint swap is so important. But it's also important that when we do have to dispose of potentially hazardous items we do so responsibly. Thanks goes to the Southeast Ohio Joint Solid Waste district and the following companies/local governments for providing this much needed service: Kraton Polymers, American Styrenics, Solvay Advanced Polymers, GPS Piping Services and the cities of Marietta and Belpre.

Commonwealth Health Foundation has announced that contributions through the ECHO (Employees Contributing to Help Others) program has reached $1 million. The program was established in 2000 to enable employees of Commonwealth Health Corporation (CHC) to contribute to the Foundation which serves as the philanthropic arm of CHC.
"Employee giving is a powerful statement to our patients and community that the employees believe in our mission and are united in our commitment to help CHC improve the quality of life in the communities we serve," said Connie D. Smith, President and Chief Executive Officer of Commonwealth Health Corporation.
Currently the ECHO program has more than 800 active employees participating through payroll deduction. This total includes employees of CHC and its subsidiaries.
Donations to the program can be designated to support Commonwealth Health Free Clinic and The Dental Clinic, the Hospitality House or both. Commonwealth Health Free Clinic provides free medical services to the working uninsured, while The Dental Clinic offers a low cost alternative to those in need of basic dental care. The Hospitality House is a "home away from home" that serves the family members and caregivers of seriously ill patients receiving treatment at The Medical Center and Commonwealth Regional Specialty Hospital.

Colleen Dominguez joins Fox Sports
Fox Sports has hired former ESPN reporter Colleen Dominguez after she spent nearly a decade with the mothership. The Los Angeles-based Dominguez will serve as a reporter and feature contributor for Fox programming, including Fox Sports Live.
This is a pretty good get for Fox. Dominguez had been with ESPN for quite a long time, and was one of the network's more familiar reporters. While ESPN has a never-ending supply of talent that can (and already has, for that matter) fill Dominguez's role, her experience can't simply be replaced by anyone off the street.
Dominguez did some solid work for ESPN throughout her career with the network, and her addition will add another legitimate voice to Fox's slate of sports reporters.

Diddy on 'Downton Abbey'? PBS says no
Music mogul and rapper Sean "Diddy" Combs will not be appearing in British period TV drama "Downtown Abbey," U.S. broadcaster PBS said Wednesday, despite tweets saying he would be joining the hit show's upcoming season.
Diddy set social media abuzz Wednesday after posts on his verified Twitter account said, "MY BIG NEWS: So happy to announce that Im a series regular on DOWNTON ABBEY-my favorite show+i'll be debuting a sneak peek tonight 12am PST!."
"It's not true," PBS spokeswoman Carrie Johnson said in an email to Reuters.
It is unknown whether or not Diddy's Twitter account @iamdiddy, followed by 8.7 million people, was hacked after the "Downton Abbey" logo was added as the avatar and background on the account.
A representative for Diddy, 43, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Emmy-winning series "Downton Abbey," about the lives of aristocratic Britons and their servants in the early 20th century, is broadcast on Britain's ITV and on public broadcaster PBS in the United States.
The show's third season U.S. premiere in January attracted a record 7.9 million viewers for PBS. The fourth season is currently being filmed in Britain.
Diddy, 43, rose to prominence in the 1990s for founding New York rap label Bad Boy Records, which helped launch the career of late Notorious B.I.G.
He also scored No. 1 hits in the late 1990s with rap songs "Can't Nobody Hold Me Down" and "I'll Be Missing You."

The American Society of Hematology (ASH) is the world's largest professional society concerned with the causes and treatments of blood disorders. There are a variety of opportunities for industry to support the Society's educational programs and annual meeting materials and services. As a benefit for supporting ASH initiatives, priority points are awarded. These points determine your ranking and placement on the exhibit floor at future ASH annual meetings.
Each year, ASH is the fortunate recipient of support from throughout the corporate community. The Society is grateful to all those who are committed to ASH and the support of its mission.
ASH encourages corporations to become ASH Corporate Friends. This program is aimed at those corporations that demonstrate a clear interest in hematology, illustrated by their products and services.
There are many opportunities for companies to have a presence at ASH meetings. These support opportunities are associated with educational grants of varying amounts, and are acknowledged in the Society's meeting publications, on the ASH Web site, and with the associated program or product supported.
The awards are made possible through grants from the corporate community, individual ASH members, foundations, and operating funds committed by the Society. Scholar Awards are the Society's top priority, and the priority-point system weighs heavily in favor of supporting this program. In addition, without the financial assistance provided by the Travel Awards, many individuals would not be able to attend the annual meeting and present their work.

The kickoff event will be on September 21, 2013 at Three Oaks Recreation Area with a year long celebration of exciting public events.

The Wapakoneta Redskins varsity volleyball team held off a determined Bath Wildcats squad to post a 3-1 win in its home opener Thursday at Wapakoneta High School. After cruising to wins in the first and second games, Wapak saw the third game slip away and had to scrap to come up with the match winner in the fourth game. The Redskins had to battle from behind in almost every game. ŌĆ£I knew Bath wasnŌĆÖt going to come in here and roll over,ŌĆØ Wapak coach Keith Rambin said. Bath opened the first game with an 11-5 lead and survived a Redskins rally to lead 22-19 late in the game.

The distinctive Wapakoneta businessŌĆÖs light green truck is flipped over. The truck sits resting on a piece of metal at a 30-degree angle. Mangled metal stabs the ground and broken glass lies around the cab. Approximately 25 firefighters and auxiliary firefighters with the Wapakoneta Fire Department quickly move around the truck determining the best location to place cribbing as a shift captain explains what needs to be done and giving them the reasons for its placement. Rain pelts the soaked ground, making the most stable of ground even less reliable.
From sweet corn husked straight out of the field to tomatoes fresh from the vine, students in the Wapakoneta City Schools this year are eating local produce as part of their lunches. Already this year, students at Wapakoneta Middle School and Wapakoneta High School have enjoyed sweet corn grown in a field by an FFA student. Slices of tomato grown by other FFA students in a community garden also are making their way onto sandwiches. ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖre already discussing what we can do next year,ŌĆØ Wapakoneta City Schools Food Service Supervisor Lori McKean said.
Deputies and detectives from the Auglaize County SheriffŌĆÖs Office along with CSX Railroad Police officers Thursday determined the likely cause of death of a CSX employee. CSX employee Dennis A.

Following the crash of AA 191 on May 25, 1979. On June 6, 1979, after a series of post accident inspections disclosed damaged aft bulkheads in the wing to engine pylons, the Administrator of the FAA issued an Emergency Order of Suspension.
The Order suspended the DC-10 series aircraft type certificate "until such time as it can be ascertained that the DC-10 aircraft meets the certification criteria of Part 25 of the FAR and is eligible for a Type Certificate."
On June 26, 1979, the FAA issued Special Federal Aviation Regulation 40 which prohibited the "operation of any Model DC-10 aircraft within the airspace of the United States."
On July 13, 1979, after a series of formal investigations, the Administrator found that the DC-10 met the requirements for issuance of a type certificate. Accordingly, the Emergency Order of Suspension was terminated.
In November 1979 the FAA fined American Airlines $500,000 for using a faulty maintenance procedure on its DC-10 aircraft by using forklift trucks to mate the complete engine/pylon assembly with wing attachment points. Continental Airlines was fined $100,000 on a similar charge.

Recovery |
The Role of the Family
We know you'll want to see your child just as soon as possible. Following surgery, you'll be brought to the pediatric or neonatal intensive care unit where your son or daughter is recovering. Here's what you can expect in the ICU:Your Child's Appearance
Your child has just been through major surgery. When you see him/her for the first time you may see many of the tubes including IVs, a Breathing Tube, Heart Monitor Leads, as well as:
- Chest Tubes
- Temporary Pacer Wires
Your Child's Comfort
You can count on the intensive care staff to keep a close eye on your child and make sure that he/she receives medications to control any discomfort. Please let a nurse know if you think your child could be made more comfortable at any time. Your child's comfort is important to us.
Your Child's Safety
Every effort is made to keep your child safe and secure while in our care. Hospital policy requires all side rails and crib rails to be fully raised at all times to prevent your child from having an accident and getting hurt. Another part of keeping your child safe is protecting them from unwanted inquiries. We do not release patient information to anyone other than the child's parents. If you want to keep friends and family updated, please have them contact you directly. In addition, you can give friends and family your child's patient code. Without the code, we will not release patient information to anyone other than the child's parents.
Your Role in Recovery
There are many things you can do to help your child's recovery. The most obvious is just to continue being a loving parent, someone your child can count on for support, stability, encouragement and comfort. You also can help by:
- Notifying the staff if your child experiences any pain
- Getting your child to breathe deeply and cough
- Encouraging your child to sit up, once the breathing tube has been removed
- Encouraging your child to walk and move around, once the chest tube has been removed
Our Visiting Policy
Family involvement plays an important role in every child's care. We understand that you and your child need to be close. That's why we encourage you to participate in your child's care and to spend as much time with your child as possible.
Parents are always welcome. (You occasionally may be asked to step out of the room while an exam is performed.) Your child may have visitors, as long as the guests are not sick. When your child is in the PICU, you will be asked to limit the number of guests (two visitors at a time).
Overnight stays (for one parent) can be accommodated in your child's room in the PICU and on the pediatric Med-Surg unit. In addition, temporary housing (Tree House) is available for families that live far away.
Not Allowed In Intensive Care
For the health and safety of your child and other children in intensive care, we do not permit:
- Sleeping in bed with child
- Flowers
- Latex balloons (Mylar balloons are allowed)
- Smoking
- Visiting other patients' rooms

This is a favorite of my Boy Scouts that graduated as Eagle Scouts from BSA Troop 47, Littleton, Colorado when I was their Scoutmaster. We challenged the Scouts to do one "gourmet" dish for each campout, and this was my "example" entry to spur them on to doing more than just beans and weenies. They got the idea quickly and not only changed what they were cooking [for the better] but how they prepared and cleaned up their creations. I have one Eagle Scout that is now an award winning chef working in NYC, largely because of his experiences while camping and earning the BSA Cooking Merit Badge.
