Hey everyone I have a mystery that is a potential problem!!!!! I have recently got into line6 gear, (I have dove into IT!) It is MORE than I ever thought it would be. Having said that I will get to my worry!! I bought a Spider IV 150combo.. Then I bought the FVB shortboard MKII. of course I had to have the "extension pedal",. finally on a whim I bought a line6 4x12 stereo cab. with a max. WATTS of 150w each channel. Here is where I get concerned... The combo has a "L" and a "R" channel OUT PUT, (both say 8 OHMS), just as the cab. has a "R" and "L" input.... The "L" channel of the cab. says, "USE LEFT JACK IN MONO"..(4OHMS) NOW when I plug 2 mono speaker cables into said cab. inputs, the combo speakers turn OFF but the cab. works fine. NOW if I plug in just one mono cable to the cab's left only "4 ohms" jack, BOTH the cab. and combo. speakers work and SEEM to be in STEREO as well, even when I'm jamming along with my ipod connected in this configuration.... My WORRY is the AMP. is getting VERY HOT!!!! I have some long hours, playing METAL at High VOLUMES, w/o incident.... IS THIS JUST DUMB LUCK I HAVEN'T BLOWN MY AMP UP!?!?!?!?!? Would 1or 2 TRS speaker cables help out, or am I just asking too much from it??? AS far as I can tell the combo shout be able to run a FULL STACK just like the "150HD"-head...? right? their the same amp for all practical purposes.... right??? Any way being a "NOOBY" to this wonderful line6 world, I sure could use a LOT of help in different configurations-allowable!!!! And advice on ANYTHING ELSE I should know.. e.g., U-TUBE sites, downloads, exc... Thank YOU SO MUCH FOR ANY INFO. AND HELP!!!!!!!!!! tonnie ?
Spider Iv Combo. Connections To A Line6 Stereo 4x12 Cab.?
Posted 21 October 2013 - 01:04 PM
If you only have the L from the amp plugged into the cabinet, then the left channel is going through the cabinet and the right channel thorugh the right speaker in the combo amp. If the left speaker in the combo is working too, then something's not right and you are overloading the amp due to the combined impedances,
Posted 23 October 2013 - 06:30 AM
No, TRS (tip-ring-sleeve) cables won't do you any good. When you plug into the speaker output jacks on the combo amp, the internal speakers are automatically cut out of the circuit. The amp needs to see 8 ohm (or higher) impedance on each channel. If you hook up two 8-ohm speakers in series, that will give you a 16-ohm load, which will work, but reduce the amount of power (and hence volume) each speaker will see. If you hook them up in parallel, then the amp will be seeing a 4 ohm load which could damage it by overdirving the circuits.

More TV Linked to Fatter, Weaker Kids
July 16, 2012
© iStockphoto
Most parents recognize the importance of a healthy lifestyle for their children and limit TV watching to encourage healthy habits. As if you needed another reason to turn off the screen, a new study suggests that TV watching leads to larger waistlines and weaker leg muscles in children, reports TIME.com.
While many studies have shown the negative effects of TV watching on health, the new study, published in the International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity, looked at more than 1300 children and recognized a concrete link between screen exposure and fitness.
PLUS: Too Much TV for Tots Poses Long-Term Harm
Parents of the children in the study provided the hours their children spent watching TV between the ages of 2.5 and 4.5. Researchers found that for each additional hour of weekly TV, children's waist size increased by just less than half a millimeter by the time children entered elementary school. While it may not sound like much, those incremental increases add up—ultimately meaning that a child who watches 18 hours of TV per week at age 4.5 will have added an extra 7.6 mm (0.3 in.) to his waist by age 10.
Aside from weighing more, children in the study who watched more TV also had less strength in their leg muscles. The study found that for every weekly hour of TV watching, children decreased a third of a centimeter in long jump distance. Since long jump performance indicates necessary ability for team sports such as basketball or football, students who watched more TV performed worse at these sports.
PLUS: TV Time: A Guide for Setting Limits
According to guidelines by the American Academy of Pediatrics, children over the age of two should not watch more than two hours of TV a day.
How much TV do you let your children watch? Will the results of this study affect how much screen time you allow your kids?

Cale Tanaka keen on second season with Hull Stingrays
Posted: February 21, 2013
CALE Tanaka says his horrendous run of injuries would not put him off returning to Hull Stingrays next season.
The 26-year-old forward is currently sidelined with a broken wrist, the latest problem in his debut campaign in Britain.
It follows a damaged AC shoulder joint, skin ripped off his nose and three broken teeth.
However, the Canadian remains upbeat in the face of seemingly being a shoo-in for Britain's unluckiest player.
"I'd definitely think about coming back," said Tanaka.
"The support in Hull has been fantastic and I like what Sylvain Cloutier is doing as a coach.
"It's been great – minus all the injuries!"
Tanaka is back training, despite sporting a pot on the wrist broken three weeks ago against Belfast.
It is not expected to be removed for at least another fortnight, leaving Tanaka facing an uphill battle to re-join the Rapid Solicitors Stingrays quest for a play-off place.
Nevertheless, the injury-prone forward remains philosophical about his current lot.
"It's part of the game," he said.
"I've been lucky enough to not go through injuries before.
"I hurt my ankle at university, but not been injured again even though I like to think I play pretty physical hockey at times.
"I know everyone gets injured, but I know I can bounce back."
Tanaka still clings to the hope of playing again this season, even though there are only 10 games of the regular season left, starting in Fife on Saturday before a home clash with Braehead on Sunday.
"It's unfortunate with the way things have gone this year injury-wise, but I'm taking the positives away from this," he said.
"I'd rather I go through it than anyone else as I can bounce back. I want to keep a positive attitude and be a positive presence in the dressing room until I can get out on the ice.
"The boys have been rolling in the past couple of games, apart from the 8-7 overtime defeat in Dundee which was a bit of a Wild West shoot-out.
"The boys have been playing solid and I'm proud of the way they have been playing.
"We have got more balanced scoring and it's paid off.
"We have been playing really well. We are happy to win those 1-0 or 2-1 games and that, plus the netminding Ben Bowns supplied last week, means we could be in for a pretty good last little run.
"It is crunch time, in fact it has pretty much been since the start of October, we've got to keep winning if we want to make the play-offs."

With dozens of law firms involved, tens of thousands of potential homeowner plaintiffs, and multiple defendants up the whole supply chain, the burgeoning flood of lawsuits concerning Chinese drywall has the potential to clog the judicial system in states and Federal districts where the drywall problem is significant. Bogging the courts down in multiple, overlapping investigations of the facts could also possibly create a mass of conflicting rulings. In such cases, the Federal court system provides for consolidating multiple suits into a single court under a single judge. And that's what happened on June 15th: The Federal Panel on Multidistrict Legislation ordered all Federal cases against suppliers of Chinese drywall to be assigned to the court of Judge Eldon E. Fallon, in the Eastern District of Louisiana, located in New Orleans. The Sarasota Herald-Tribune has a report ("Chinese drywall cases to be consolidated in New Orleans," by Aaron Kessler) as does The New Orleans Times- Picayune ("Chinese drywall lawsuits to be consolidated in federal court in New Orleans," by Kate Moran).
View larger image
Florida markets received far and away the highest volume of Chinese drywall shipments during the peak importing years of 2005 and 2006, according to an analysis by the Herald-Tribune, while Louisiana received the second highest volume of shipments (see graphic above). Other states, including Atlantic seaboard states and West Coast states, received far lower volume, while inland states, with ready access to domestic supplies and higher shipping costs for transport from the coast, appear largely to have been spared the Chinese drywall plague.

Step 1: What You Will Need:
-Cork Board
-Toothpicks (notice mine are little umbrellas. Hey, do what you can with what you have, right!)
-Measuring tape or ruler
-Marker or Pen
-A nail or pin to hang it up
Step 2: Lets Begin!
2. Lay your ruler or measuring tape down:
- 3" from the top
- Put a dot every 2" across your board
Note: Play around with where you would like your toothpicks to be.
I choose to space mine out every 2", but do whatever works for you!
Step 3: Hammer in Toothpicks
4. Do it on a slight angle, so the thread wont fall right back off after you slide it on
5. Hammer a toothpick in each dot you made
Step 4: Make Another Row
Again, you can play around with the spacing
Step 7: ENJOY!!!

Bose SoundLink Wireless Mobile speaker Video
Bose SoundLink Wireless Mobile speaker Video Transcript
-Hi, I'm David Carnoy from CNET. I'm going to give you a quick video tour of Bose's new portable Bluetooth speaker, the SoundLink Wireless. What's so special about it? Let's start with just how small it is and with just how much sound comes out of it and decent sound with that. Bose also seems to be taking a few cues from Apple along with the compact form factor and clean elegant design. The SoundLink Wireless is equipped with the magnetic protective cover that doubles as a stand and automatically turns the speaker off when closed. The model you see here retails for $300 and comes with a nylon cover, but there's also a step up model called the LX that goes for $50 more and has a leather cover, an automative grade chrome trim. Not surprisingly, Bose is selling a [unk] nylon and leather covers for $29.95 and 49.95 respectively, so you got some options down the road if you wanna change things up. The first thing you'll notice about the speaker when you pick it up is that while it may be small, it's got some heft to it and it weighs in a respectable 2.78 pounds. However, probably the most impressive thing about its design is how thin it is measuring less than 2 inches thick. While the speaker look sleek and seems on the surface to be more suited to indoor listening, Bose has made it a point to promote how durable and rugged the unit is and the built in rechargeable battery allows you to use it wherever you want. The battery gives about 3 to 4 hours of listening at higher volumes and have to double that if you tone things down. As we said, this is a Bluetooth speaker and has a wireless range of about 30 feet and works with just about any current Bluetooth enabled device and many legacy ones. It doesn't come with a remote because your smartphone or iPad touch is the remote that can be used to adjust volume levels. Features-wise, there really isn't much else to talk about. The others and audio input around back for connecting audio devices that don't have Bluetooth plus a micro USB port for future software upgrades to the speaker. There is no built in microphone that would turn this into a speaker phone, but that's really the only feature omission worth highlighting. As I said, the real killer feature here is how loud the speaker plays for its size and it sounds descent especially for a Bluetooth speaker. This thing can actually fill a medium size room with sound as a big upgrade from something smaller and less expensive like Jawbone's JAMBOX both in terms of volume and sound quality. What's also impressive is that the sound doesn't distort at higher volumes. At $300 or even 350 dollar is a lot to spend for a portable speaker. If you are looking for a truly compact Bluetooth speaker that is at the top of its class in terms of both design and performance that price will see a little bit more palatable. I'm David Carnoy and that's the Bose SoundLink Wireless mobile speaker.

Comments about Folding Bluetooth® Keyboard:
I bought this keyboard at a physical Brookstone store after returning a bluetooth speaker I received as a gift for Christmas. It is a convient keyboard for tablets and didn't want to utilize the virtual touch-screen keyboard found on most Apple or Android based tablets. The keyboard is smaller than those for a traditional desktop or laptop computer, but given the portability factor, it's neat. It does take some time getting used to the layout, but eventually, it'll become second nature. I've found that it takes a lot of time off from using the virtual qwerty keyboard, especially if you use your tablet or smartphone for emails or texts, or product reviews.

Punknews interviewer Gen Handley spoke to bass player Joey Garibaldi (also of Youth Brigade) from Texas, where the band was in the midst of a tour with NOFX, the Bouncing Souls and Cobra Skulls.
How's the tour going?
It's really awesome. So far we've done two shows and they've been great - super packed. I'm living the dream, playing with some of my heroes...
Who's that?
Well, I love the Cobra Skulls, but NOFX and the Bouncing Souls are two reasons why I love punk rock so much.
Right on. So when Old Man Markley first got together, fairly recently, in 2007, what were your goals as musicians? It's a really unique sound.
Well, as the legend goes, it started with Ryan (Markley), our washboard player, who was living with Johnny, our guitar player and his wife Annie (Detemple), who's the autoharp player. After one drunken night of basically just playing instruments that were around their house, we were like, "This is really fun - it's definitely worth getting together and doing it again." It was never like, "Lets start a bluegrass-type of band."
We were all playing in punk bands at the time. Johnny and I were playing in a band called Blue Collar Special and that kind of dissipated. Ryan, the washboard player and Alex (Zablotsky) the mandolin player had been playing in Angel City Outcasts for years and they both wanted to do something different - we've always liked playing fast, energetic music. So after that one fateful night, we were really stoked on the sounds we were making and we kept doing it. It was a very natural thing.
We played our first club show in January of 2008 and it was awesome - the entire place sold out of beer and people were dancing on the bar so afterwards we were like, "This is something we need to keep doing."
As part of that natural progression, what is it about bluegrass, or newgrass as you guys are sometimes called, that punk music was no longer doing or was missing?
With all of the other instruments, arrangement wise, we have some much to build on top of each other. I mean, I love playing punk rock, but I grew up playing piano and I really enjoy taking a song and doing a lot of different things with it. I guess the more strings, the merrier.
What are some similarities between playing the two genres? They must be comparable…
Yeah, totally. Just the way you play them. Like, in Old Man Markley, we play our songs very fast and when I practice on the upright bass, I play along to punk records because the tempo is similar - the only real difference is in the drumbeat. Even with the writing, if we stripped the number of instruments for our songs, they would work just as well as punk songs.
How was working with Joby Ford (The Bronx guitarist) as producer for the album?
He was great. He worked really well with us and I think he definitely did a good job on the album. It was a good time.
The song, "Guts 'N Teeth" has a pretty positive message of encouraging people to move past their differences and focus on how we're similar instead…
Yeah, it has a very altruistic, humanistic message that we're all here together…
Why was that song chosen as the title track for the album?
I think it fits in with how we feel about things and also how the band is about bare wood and strings - the bare guts and teeth.
So who is Old Man Markley?
Ryan, our washboard player, his last name is Markley and years ago, during one of his punk rock adventures, he threw his back out and has since experienced the occasional back pain. I mean, he's a young guy - a strapping young fellow - but he has earned the moniker, Old Man, and it has stuck ever since.
As a relatively young band, do you pay much attention to the comments on sites like Punknews?
I've been a big fan of Punknews for years and I always go there to see what everyone is doing - I'm one of those guys who is on constantly. I love the back and forth and I love the comments like, "What the fuck is this crap?" because I would be doing the same. If they don't have words to throw around, punk rockers will pick up bottles quick. The fact is that it's good that people are talking about us on there. Some of the feedback is good, but some people are also like, "What the hell is this?" and damn right because sometime I'm also wondering, "What the hell is this?" (laughs)
(laughs) So you guys have a thick skin…
Yeah, for sure. The first time we played a punk show we opened for Youth Brigade and Guttermouth in Los Angeles - I'm the bass player in Youth Brigade and have been playing with them for about three and a half years. I was a little nervous about what the reception was going to be, but it was great. There were guys with mohawks out there doe-see-doeing (laughs).
We very much have a party-type vibe and are very unpretentious - I think our fight is a fight against pretention. We're all really good friends and we're all out there to have a fucking ball.
So yeah, we pay attention to it and if people are talking shit, at least they're talking - that's a good thing, I think.
How is Youth Brigade going?
I'm 30 and I've been listening to them since I was 14. They were one of the first punk bands I was exposed to and one of the first bands I saw who were like, "Come up on stage and sing the songs with us." Well, 16 years later, they were still like, "Come up on stage with us," but this time they threw me a bass to play.
We just did a six-week tour of Europe. With Old Man Marley, it's been so busy, but Mark Stern (Youth Brigade drummer) is also Old Man Markley's tour manager. We're like a big family and it's been really cool.
How did the relationship with Fat Wreck Chords come to be?
Well, playing in Youth Brigade, we've opened up for NOFX on some dates - Johnny has also played in Youth Brigade - and I met (Fat) Mike a few times and he said he heard that we started a new band. He wanted to hear it so I gave him a CD. A few months later, he said he liked it, but the recording could be better - we did our demos out of a garage. Anyway, Mike was like, "Fuck it, lets just do it," and we released our For Better For Worse seven inch out that has "The Science of Myth", a Screeching Weasel cover on it. Mike was really into that, so then we released the full-length. He's been super supportive and seems like he wants to work with us - he's just a really cool guy.
I've been a fan of NOFX and Fat for a long time and so this almost surreal - a fucking dream come true.
Are you also a fan of the old bluegrass artists? Like, Bill Monroe and the Blue Grass Boys?
I am, yeah - that and Earl Scruggs. Actually what got me into it was Old Crow Medicine Show and I got into them when I heard a cover of their song, "Wagon Wheel." I love the older stuff, but I'm not a super country-type of guy. I do love the incorporation of it. Our banjo player, John Rosen, has been playing banjo for the better part of his life - well over 30 years - and he's so well-versed in all types of music so I'm learning lots from him.
What do you think the old guys, like Monroe, would be saying about Old Man Markley?
They'd probably be talking all sorts of smack (laughs). If you think that punk rockers are gnarly when it comes to ideals and what is and what isn't punk rock, blue grass is more extreme. Bill Monroe basically invented the style and he would tell people when they could use the term "bluegrass" with their music. I think those guys are definitely rolling in their graves when they hear us (laughs).

[2011 Feb 09] Intg v3.11
For working with the GEOID99 model, two FORTRAN programs are provided as source code (INTG.FOR and XNTG.FOR) and as compiled executables for both Sun Unix (INTG and XNTG) and IBM PC (INTG.EXE and XNTG.EXE) platforms. INTG will interpolate geoid heights from data files using user-provided coordinates. XNTG will extract sub-grids from the binary data files, as well as convert back and forth between binary and ASCII, or just give statistics about a data file.
To use GEOID99, the INTG executable and at least one data file must be downloaded. You need only to select those data files that cover your region, and the program will recognize which files are present. Select one or more of the data files either by using the graphical or data interfaces.
Due to numerous requests, the binary formats of the eight data files have now been switched to the native format of Intel based PCs (little-endian). Users desiring IEEE Std. 754 binary format should process the desired files through XNTG (in a Unix environment) and select option 2. The user should select the default spatial extents for the output file. Give the output file a unique name and then change it to the input file name after the XNTG program is complete. The resulting file will cover the same range as the original file but will be byte-swapped. Repeat as necessary for the desired number of files.

There was a crash? I think I've lost a new 5-star rating! That's important too
Just came across this video by a frustrated youtuber:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LC3xHeYKP30At this stage, AdRev doesn't seem like a good option for the authors selling royalty free music.
It may not be the sales numbers that make the popular items popular again every week. If you do a search on videohive almost all of the popular tracks on AJ have been used in a number of high selling videohive projects.
The previous week one of my new tracks made it to the popular list with 14 sales and I expected a few more sales since it was now on that page. Guess what, it made only 1 sale during the whole week.
This makes me think that the major determining factor for sales on AJ is videohive rather than the number of previous sales or the popular items list.
I think starting up a new elite music marketplace based on the PRO model is like trying to reinvent the wheel. There are already lots of sites doing that. If that model was better, then we wouldn't be having this discussion here because every author would go and upload their music in those sites.
PRO model has its flaws too. In many countries PROs are inefficient or even corrupt. You don't know how much or when you'll get paid or whether you will get paid at all!
Therefore I'm all for upfront payment rather than the PRO model. What we need here is a higher priced broadcast license. Since we are offering truly royalty free music, it would only be fair if the upfront payment was higher. Right now we are both waiving our performance rights and getting a lower upfront payment as well. Currently it is a no-win situation if our music is used on TV.
I wonder if it's possible to take down the track from AJ and register it with a PRO and collect the royalties after it gained a significant amount of air time on TV? Do the PROs pay royalties for the air time that happened before the track was registered?
If so, one can give the track a go on AJ, and if it's used on TV, you can take it down and register.

I had the same last night and the best part is the number was real in the morning
DutovLoppa said
... I guess that AJ must use a completly different system based on weekly featured tracks by category. For each category, 3 tracks would be featured on the front page instead of the un useful list of new items.
I agree that displaying the newest tracks for 1-2 hours on the front page don't have much use. But instead of more featured tracks, front page can be used for displaying the top selling items uploaded in the last week/month.
I have a huge drop in sales too. Seems like the only track I'm selling is the last one I've uploaded.

It doesn't harm a dog to learn to be on it's own, either. At some point it will have to be "by itself", and while you are in the house is a good way to start.
That said, when we adopted an adult GSD, we crated him right in the front room. It worked just fine. The shut down is not a "set in stone" formula. Just like any tool it can be tailor made to the situation and the dog. Some dogs don't need it. Others - can't settle into a home without it. To write it off completely because you didn't like one part, makes no sense. Besides, some dogs do need that much "down time", it all depends on the dog. |

I think some people see the 2 week shut down as a form of sensory deprivation torture like those that cause Stockholm Syndrome.
Every dog is different and some may not need this, and others a variation of it. I have had Benny since a pup and occasionally when he got real amped up over things going on in the house would crate him and put a sheet over the crate. This gave him a chance to calm himself down without isolating him

Michelle is right, it works for any and all breeds.
Plus I find it vastly interesting that we intro'ed all new fosters into our home just like this - for their safety and our own dog's safety...no matter what the breed...before we knew it was a "method"! Anyone who has brought a foster or adopted dog home and had things go south immediately has done it. Or they brought the dog back to the shelter, hardly a viable option, IMO, unless things were really bad. Instead of tempting fate, we integrate them the same way and it rarely fails. |

So essentially the "two week shut down" is the same thing that I would do with a new puppy. Makes sense to me.

Even a dog needs some peace and quiet. When Hans was a little puppy I always crated him somewhere else for his naps, otherwise he wouldn't get the good, deep sleep he needed. This isn't about isolating the dog, it is about giving him some breathing room.

I had one trainer tell me it was a terrible thing to do to a shepherd, so when I adopted Tasha I asked the rescue to comment on the two week shut down... Not only was their expert kind enough to answer me in a long email but also comment on it in a blog post. From the Sticky Dog Blog..
"PS. I have seen a protocol called a "two week shutdown" several websites promote. Some rescues insist on it for all adopters. There seems to be some debate over it's worth. Some people swear by it, some people swear at it. I don't see the benefit in any form of isolation, the feeling of abandonment and separation from the pack is probably in my view one of the most painful and emotionally punishing ways to distress a dog, a pack animal. Do not isolate the dog in the back yard, or the laundry room, or the spare bedroom either. Spend loving time growing your new dog to be the best he can be." |

hmmmm...I see the point in what you are saying, shepherdmom, and don't disagree. But I don't think there is a single thing I've ever learned that I didn't modify to some extent.
The dog is supposed to be watching what is going on in the house, out playing with the owner...just not overwhelmed with new experiences like other animals, new places, training, etc. That allows the dog to chill out a bit and bond with the owner. So if you don't like the "isolation" part, why not set up a crate in the area that everyone is in AND one in a quiet room so the dog can have down time if need be?

I guess the expert doesn't believe in teaching the dog to be OK with alone time.
I think it is important for the dog to be OK by himself. Separation anxiety is not pleasant, and if the dog can't handle separation, that's a sign that he needs more of it. There have been times when we absolutely could not come home and Hans had to spend time alone, and it was nice to find him sleeping and content when we returned. I contrast this with my parents' dogs who treated them to a screeching whine fest when they would return. We can probably go around and around on this. I remember similar discussions on parenting boards by people who advocated attachment parenting and those who felt it was important for the child to learn to self soothe. No one budged on their POV there, either

EDIT 4/20: 8th on top entries...not bad for first game. thanks guys!! and front page...holy shit tom.
Finally here is the FINAL VERSION of the Enrichment Center (our first game). We added several of mechanics into the game. Remember: this was just us testing the waters of flash. Something entertaining, yet simple. for now at least.
Same story as the Beta:
This is a fan based game off of Valve's Portal. This is another part of Aperture Science. This takes place before the portal gun was completed, so this game is like Portal .5.
You're an Aperture Science employee starting to think that you will never going home again. So you start to escape from the Enrichment Center.
and remember, there's 2 different endings!
Hope you Enjoy!
Additional Note:
WE KNOW THAT IT'S SHORT. We had 1 good day of planning out the puzzles, and then no more ideas came...so we just went with it. Our apologies. If enough of you guys want a sequel, once we have ideas for at least 19 puzzles, we'll work on it. Thank you

WordPress begins accepting Bitcoin for service upgrades
WordPress has announced it will begin accepting payment for upgrades via the controversial peer-to-peer currency Bitcoin, a move it promises will break down geographical and corporate boundaries.
While the popular blogging platform is a free service, it does offer paid upgrades such as custom designs and ad-free presentations. However, not everyone has access to those upgrades due to limits on traditional payment networks such as PayPal, which is blocked in more than 60 countries, notes Andy Skelton, code wrangler at WordPress parent Automattic.
"Some are blocked for political reasons, some because of higher fraud rates, and some for other … Read more

Student Life
Living on Campus
The Annapolis campus is nestled between College Creek and the U.S. Naval Academy in the heart of the state capital, just off the Chesapeake Bay. It has been home to St. John's College since 1784. Here, students experience not only an unparalleled academic experience, but a close-knit community as well. The intentionally small student body and rigorous interdisciplinary curriculum cultivate this atmosphere conversations started in the classroom often spill onto the quad after seminar, into the dorms or the coffee shop, or wherever students and tutors gather. Of course, the scope of student life includes more than the great books the campus is also rich with recreational and social opportunities.
All freshmen live on campus, and upperclassmen are encouraged to do the same. The six historic dorms, including Campbell (1954 - above right), are each home to around 40 students and are situated around McDowell Hall (1789 - above left), the vibrant center of both academic and social life at St. John's. McDowell's interior includes classrooms, a performance hall, the coffee shop, and the mailroom. This integrative residential arrangement fosters student interest and participation in a variety of activities, which range from study groups to musical clubs to athletics.
Two newer dorms, Gilliam and Spector (2006), provide spacious double and single rooms a little further removed from the hub, with a view of College Creek and a shared kitchen on each floor. Even when students choose to live off campus, housing is generally available within a few blocks, and many enjoy living in apartments in historic downtown buildings.

Bought it few weeks ago at this price. After the trial solution ran out we are using 1 cup vinegar to 1 gallon water in both reservoirs. Washing the pads before first use is suggested.
I bought this last time around.
I am a bit disappointed at how slow one has to move it to seriously clean. Consider renting the industrial unit at HD for less money and get the job done better and faster. If you do want this or already bought it as I have, go to the Hoover web site to buy the cleaning fluid. They had a great discounted price (BOGO compared to other online venues) and free shipping. I think the sale was good until Christmas but the site is currently down for maintenance. |
I was looking at the hundred dollar steamers myself until I read the reviews on this one on Amazon about a week ago. I've been using mine and am very happy with the unit. I also use diluted vinegar solution in place of the packaged solution that comes with it. I highly recommend picking this up at this price it is a great deal!
Got it today in store and haven't got to use it yet. Super excited and what a great price! though. If you buy it in store be sure to see if it is on display. At the Home Depot near our home they did not have it out on display and I had to find someone to search for it and get a ladder since it was all the way up at the top of the shelves.
Great deal at this price. I bought ours a few months ago on Amazon for $70, and it was at it's lowest price point according to Camel3. It cleans the surface of our ceramic tile very well, but it does have a hard time lifting up stains that are stuck in the grout lines.
It was $48 at my local home depot. Only had the one I bought, and another in a box that had "display box" written on it. Wish it was $39.97, but I'm very happy that I found it for $48.
I actually did a quick search on slickdeals for this mop and glanced at this thread, but quit reading when i clicked the HD link and it showed $84.99. I stopped by HD anyways, and looked for one because there's really no other place local that sold it, at least that I knew of. I couldn't find it at the store, and was about to give up and walk out, when I saw a clearance area and stopped to look at a shower head. By chance, I glanced at the bottom row of the clearance isle, and there were the two twintanks, and to my surpise, they were marked down to the amount that this thread stated. Being that I didn't read this thread, I didn't realize that they were marked down in store too. I was prepared to pay full price for this thing. Last edited by leecm; 03-06-2013 at 09:08 PM.. |

Northern Nigeria was a British protectorate which lasted from 1900 until 1914 in the present country of Nigeria. The protectorate spanned 255,000 miles (410,000 km) including the pre-colonial states of the Sokoto Caliphate, the Bornu Empire, and the Kano Emirate. The first High Commissioner of the protectorate was Frederick Lugard who actively suppressed revolutions and created a system of administration built around native authorities. The Protectorate was ended in 1914 when it was unified with the Southern Nigeria Protectorate and the Lagos Colony becoming the Northern Province of the Colony and Protectorate of Nigeria.
The Berlin Conference of 1884 and 1885 provided the area that would become the Northern Nigeria Protectorate to the British. The Royal Niger Company was formed in 1886 with George Taubman Goldie as the vice governor. The Company negotiated trade agreements and political agreements, sometimes coercive, with many of the chieftains, emirs, and the Sokoto Caliphate. In 1897, Frederick Lugard was the appointed head of the West African Frontier Force which was tasked with stopping Fulani resistance and possible French incursions in the northwest area.[1]
On 1 January 1890, the Royal Niger Company's charter was revoked and the British took control.[1] The Royal Niger Company was paid £865,000 and was given the rights to half of all mining revenue in a large part of the areas for 99 years in exchange for ceding the territory to the British government. Lugard was appointed the High Commissioner of the newly created Northern Nigeria Protectorate. Zungeru became the headquarters for the protectorate in 1902 because it was the most northerly city accessible by river transport.[1]
Military operations began in 1902 and continued for about five years of sporadic fighting. The remnants of the Bornu Empire were conquered in 1902 and the Sokoto Caliphate and the Kano Emirate were taken over in 1903. Fighting continued in 1904 in Bassa. In 1906 a large Mahdist revolution began outside of the city of Sokoto in the village of Satiru, a combined force of the British and the British-appointed Sultan of Sokoto, Muhammadu Attahiru II, destroyed the town and killed most residents involved.[1][2] After 1907 there were fewer revolts and use of military force by the British and the focus of the High Commissioner turned toward taxation and administration.
The British Administration began with Frederick Lugard as the first High Commissioner. In 1907, Lugard left Nigeria for Hong Kong and Percy Girouard became the new High Commissioner. Girouard had a long history of rail construction in Canada and Africa and was tasked with substantial railroad construction in the Protectorate. In 1909, Henry Hesketh Bell, the governor of the Uganda Protectorate was appointed high commissioner.[1] In 1912, it was estimated that the area of Northern Nigeria was approximately 255,000 miles (410,000 km) and had a population of about 10 million people. Charles Lindsay Temple became the acting Head Commissioner in 1911 and 1912 and began overseeing, with close collaboration with Lugard, the creation of the Colony and Protectorate of Nigeria
One defining characteristic of administration in Northern Nigeria Protectorate was the inclusion of chiefs and emirs as "native authorities" fitting into British administration.[3] Taxation proved very difficult in the protectorate for the first years of British rule. Lugard's attempts to institute poll taxes were foiled by the emirates, the need to introduce coin controversy, and attempts to tax trade were opposed by powerful merchants.[3] This created a substantial deficit in the budget of the Protectorate and public works projects had to be paid by grants from the British Empire. As a result, the British often had significant shortages of British personnel before 1907. These pragmatic concerns resulted in incorporation of the traditional authorities within the British structure.[3]
These same financial and administrative challenges resulted in discussions led by Lugard for the unification of the Lagos Colony, the Southern Nigeria Protectorate, and Northern Nigeria. The disparities between the protectorates was to be corrected by creating a central administration in Lagos, with custom revenues from the south paying for the projects in the north.[3] The unified Colony and Protectorate of Nigeria began in 1914 and had two lieutenant governors with one responsible for the area of the southern province and another responsible for the northern province. The administration in the north remained largely separate and included and deepened the use of native authorities. These divisions have been found to persist in many respects to this day.[4]

How green is your driving?
It may sound somewhat Orwellian, but people may be more open to this dashboard-mounted pollution monitor nowadays, especially if they've seen An Inconvenient Truth.
Japan-based Hino has developed the "DriveMaster Pro," which tracks a car's performance and compares it with the Japanese government's environmental recommendations. Akihabara News says the device, which uses an "ingenious array of sensors placed in your car," will "visually and verbally" indicate when driving patterns appear to counter anti-pollution guidelines. (It sounds a little like that talking radar detector.)
