Product description
The riveting story of how a young man turned $25 into more than 200 schools around the world and the guiding steps anyone can take to lead a successful and significant life. Adam Braun began working summers at hedge funds when he was just sixteen years old, sprinting down the path to a successful Wall Street career. But while traveling he met a young boy begging on the streets of India, who after being asked what he wanted most in the world, simply answered, "A pencil." This small request led to a staggering series of events that took Braun backpacking through dozens of countries before eventually leaving one of the world's most prestigious jobs to found Pencils of Promise, the organization he started with just $25 that has since built more than 200 schools around the world. "The Promise of a Pencil" chronicles Braun's journey to find his calling, as each chapter explains one clear step that every person can take to turn your biggest ambitions into reality, even if you start with as little as $25. His story takes readers behind the scenes with business moguls and village chiefs, world-famous celebrities and hometown heroes. Driven by compelling stories and shareable insights, this is a vivid and inspiring book that will give you the tools to make your own life a story worth telling. "*All proceeds from this book will support Pencils of Promise."

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Events will force politicians to weigh in
Will lawmakers ever get on the same page as the majority of citizens who support assisted suicide for the terminally ill?
To date, euthanasia is a sequestered issue, a debate that has found very little audience in legislatures across this country. It's divisive, visceral and exactly the kind of issue most politicians with an interest in getting re-elected stay away from with relish.
Related Items
Quebec -- where support for euthanasia has traditionally been highest -- introduced a law that would allow limited physician-assisted suicide, but it was not passed before the PQ government called an election. As well, the Supreme Court of Canada is expected this year to hear a challenge to a lower-court decision in British Columbia that upheld the legal prohibition against assisted suicide. Finally, Winnipeg Conservative MP Steven Fletcher last week introduced two private member's bills outlining a protocol for allowing physician-assisted suicide in specific cases.
These events come at a time when support for euthanasia appears formidable. A Free Press/Probe poll shows two-thirds of Manitobans (traditionally the most skeptical on this issue) would support physician-assisted suicide.
That is consistent with a 2013 Environics Institute poll that showed seven in 10 Canadians support physician-assisted death for terminally ill patients.
Support for euthanasia has been high for some time. Environics reported 20 years ago that two-thirds of Canadians supported the concept.
An aging population is keenly aware of this issue. Add to that the knowledge that methods such as terminal sedation and palliative-care practices have taken us to the edge of assisted death.
Why then has government remained at odds with public opinion? On this political issue, personal values have trumped policy need. And fear of a motivated minority has eclipsed the preferences of a concerned majority.
Euthanasia is an issue where the minority opponents are seen as more potent than the majority. It's difficult for someone to be passionately in favour of it, even though many people support the concept. However, for those who view it as a social or religious affront, the issue is worth fighting against. It's perilous ground for any politician who wants to be re-elected. And particularly risky for any politician in government.
One of the great ironies of parliamentary democracy is that majority governments tend to be inherently conservative on tricky social issues. Having achieved power, governing parties are loath to do anything to rock that boat. The result is a chronic aversion to risk. Still, governments occasionally listen to the will of the majority on thorny issues.
Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau grabbed headlines last summer by not only pledging support for the legalization of marijuana possession, but also admitting he had smoked pot while an MP. Initially, the Tories assailed Trudeau and rejected the idea of easing pot laws. "It's currently against the law to smoke dope," said Peter MacKay, federal minister of justice, when he was asked in late August 2013 about easing pot laws.
However, when it quickly became apparent the majority of Canadians supported decriminalizing or legalizing pot -- and were mostly indifferent to Trudeau's personal experience with the drug -- the tune changed. Last month, MacKay signalled his government would introduce changes to drug laws to allow police to ticket people found to be in possession of a small amount of marijuana. "The prime minister has signalled his openness to this," MacKay said.
In just six months or so, a federal government formerly dead set against any discussion of easing drug laws vows to do just that.
Where do we go from here on the euthanasia debate? It's unclear whether Fletcher's bills will make much headway. However, even if the Tory majority stalls those bills, the government cannot avoid having to deal with the fallout from the Supreme Court hearing on the B.C. appeal.
When the Supreme Court dealt with this issue two decades ago, it upheld the ban on assisted suicide. However, the high court's renewed interest in this issue suggests subsequent decisions on constitutional rights may cast a new light on the euthanasia debate.
Until that decision is delivered, most of our lawmakers will be on standby. Not wanting to get into the issue, but preparing for the inevitable day when it's finally time to set aside personal values and focus on policy.

Trying to run your car on empty is just as insane as trying to breeze through the day without breakfast. Of course, this might not be a problem for those who live to eat but for those who are hard pressed for time, this turns out to be an unhealthy habit that we can all do without.
So let me reiterate: breakfast is the most important meal of the day. There I said it, not pretending to the first or the last person to say so. And this applies not only to adults but also to children as well.
For all your intelligence, it's pointless to get through the day without any energy! Isn't it?
Even though it seems like I'm insulting your intelligence by saying this, most people make excuses such as "no time", "too much to do", "am not much of a morning eater" leading to ulcers and ailments related to the stomach that is anything but pleasant…
Is it really important to "break your fast"?
If one breaks down the word, "breakfast" – it means to break the fast. And as obvious as this might sound, we're not breaking the fast, if we aren't having a good and solid breakfast .
And in danger of clucking away like your mom – it's just not a good habit to cultivate!
But it's understandable when people struggle with time as perhaps the simplest solution is to find yourself a set of quick-to-make easy breakfast recipes that should help you eat in the morning before going to work.
Easy Breakfast Recipes – No need to run on empty!
You don't have to look any further because there are a whole bunch of recipes that you can find over the internet. So here are a few of those recipes that you can try out in the morning:
1) Yoghurt with fruit
Ingredients: 1 cup – Apples (chopped), ½ cup – Raisins, 1 cup – Seedless grapes, 2 cups – Banana (sliced), 1 cup – Berries, 2 cups – Plain or vanilla low fat yogurt
Preparation: One can make this in no time. All you have to do is mix the fruits and put the yoghurt on top of it. And enjoy!
2) Grapefruit drink
Ingredients: Grapefruit juice and orange, two teaspoons of honey, 1 cup of fresh strawberries, 1/2 cup sliced strawberries (as toppings)
Preparation: Mix the grapefruit and orange juice, honey and strawberries in a blender. Blend it until it becomes a "smoothie", and then add the sliced strawberries as toppings.
3) Omelette
Ingredients: Two eggs, (optional) vegetables like Brussel sprouts, broccoli, mixed peppers and baby spinach, (optional) meat such as tuna, ground and minced beef, sliced and ground chicken, nacon and tuna, cheese and spices such as black pepper, cumin and sea salt.
Preparation: Almost everyone knows how to make an omelette but just for this to not become boring, you can either add veggies or meat to the omelette to change the routine a bit.
In Closing
And if these recipes are difficult for you to manage, you can always find simpler recipes at this link and this one .

- Nothing SpecialWanderingFoodieVIPDined on 10/1/2014Thought I would give this place a try with a friend. I had the Thai Garlic Chicken that was good. My friend had the pad thai, which had an unusual flavor that I have not had in any pad thai before. It was off putting and I would not order this here. It was basically noodles. I ordered a specialty cocktail that came in a glass so tall the straw fell in. A Paloma does not need to be in a tall fancy glasss. It was just not appropriate for this drink. Service was forgetful, but cordial. All in all, nothing special. Better asian fusion cuisine elsewhere.
- Good SushiGBRCDined on 9/27/2014We were pleasantly surprised with Kamiya 86. The food was good and the service excellent. We would definitely return.I would recommend this to a friend.

- Date NightJaxbeachbumDined on 8/9/2014The wife and I finally got a date night and decided to go back here. We had been once before for a small birthday party and really enjoyed the food (the taste and the look.) It is one of those places that you are looking at all the food be delivered to the other tables and asking, "I wonder what that is? " The place was busy and they told us or would be 5 minutes before the table was ready. We decided it would be fun to sit at the bar and gave our table to some poor saps that didn't make a reservation. The staff at the bar was attentive and entertaining. The food was brilliant again and we will be going back next date night to try some other menu items, and yes, sitting at the bar.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

It was a Thursday night not a weekend thank goodness. Had a nice time, will go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Food but Noisy!FanofopDined on 6/27/2014When you enter Kamiya you note the ambience surrounding the beautifully appointed bar and seating area. At 7 PM on a Saturday, Most tables were occupied. Fortunately, we had a reservation and our table was available. The server was busy closing out the bill at another table so we had to wait to order drinks. The same type of delay occurred when to requested our bill. The server explained the menu and specials after bringing our drinks. She was very friendly and helpful. The sushi for two and sea weed salad was very good. We plan to return and sit at a table away from the bar so we can converse during dinner!Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 6/23/2014We did not feel welcomed. I was disappointed in our waitress. I informed them duringf reservation, our family will be coming out to celebrate my daughter's birthday, and I wanted the night special, they did nothing to make it special. The waitress failed to pay attention, did not come back after the food was served to make sure we liked the food. She had my bill wrong.
- Love itMarmenDined on 6/7/2014Ever since we discovered kamiya we have never been disappointed.Special Features:
- OKOpenTable Diner Since 2011VIPDined on 5/17/2014Questionable sushi. Mediocre service. Overpriced for quality of food and level of service. No atmosphere.

- delightful dinner for 2jackieDined on 4/20/2014We came early on Easter sunday (5:00) and had the place to ourselves for half hour. The interior is beautiful, hostess was friendly and explained the different sushi and sashimi characteristics. I had read in other reviews that this was the restaurant to go to for these delicasies. I will totally agree!! The coctails contained liquor, not just fruit juice, the presentation of the sashimi was delightful and the entrees were delishious. We will definitly return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Outstanding!lucygirlVIPDined on 3/22/2014Beautiful restaurant. Great for a romantic dinner. Sushi was beautifully presented and of excellent quality. Thai entree was made to my specifications. The gorgeous dessert was perfect for sharing. Service was very attentive. Will be returning!Special Features:
- Best sushi in JaxRac11Dined on 3/15/2014I was nervous about my restaurant choice when I saw the outside of this place. However, the inside was clean, welcoming and super modern/trendy. The food was amazing! Some of the best I've had in Jacksonville area. The price was very reasonable as well. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants great food, good service and a hip atmosphere. My favorite sushi roll out of the six we ordered was the crazy dynamite roll. Can't wait to go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Spicy Crispy Chicken or Beefcrispy42Dined on 3/8/2014We love Kamiya 86. We have taken several friends there and they are equally pleased with the quality of the food and service. We look forward to taking our grandchildren so they can dine Japanese style.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great night outJPRNPVBDined on 2/14/2014Decor and extensive lighting create a very high end ambience. Coupled with great food and service this place is a winner and has a solid place on my "repeat many times " list!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- amazing foodPrinc3ss828Dined on 2/7/2014I absolutely love the food serviced there. Their sushi is by far the best I've taste and for a great price.Special Features:
- Food and NoiseOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 1/24/2014We eat at Kamiya often. We are never disappointed in the service or food. But, this restaurant, like many others, is designed to be noisy and the design works. It is too noisy to carry on a conversation, even though the tic box for most survey forms calls too noisy "energetic". I'm sure some nut case in New York got the idea that loud noise is "energetic". For us it's disruptive, unsophisticated, urban (not urbane), and quite unpleasant. Nevertheless the food and service are quite excellent.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best Sushi Ever!4kay2dayDined on 1/11/2014I had the Alex 1986 roll. It was by far my favorite sushi roll ever.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fun NYE dinner!mitchpDined on 12/31/2013If you like Thai and Sushi, don't want something really expensive, and enjoy fun drinks, this is your place! Although the location seems strip-mallish, when you walk in you forget that is where you are. The ambiance is very young and hip, a bit loud, but food is great and lots of it! I don't eat Sushi but the veggie versions were delicious -and my husband was able to enjoy sushi. The General Tsao was great. A very nice place. Our only disappointment was that we came early to sit at the bar for a bit, but it was jam packed. But - our table was ready so we went there and ordered our pre-dinner drink.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- great food awful ambiencesushiXODined on 12/27/2013The food at Kamiya is truly wonderful but what an awful place to eat. This was December 28. We moved once because we were by a large noisy party which is normal this time of year and then we were by an eating room with about 5 "frat" acting boys. I don't believe I have ever eaten in a restaurant that allowed that and they kept being served drinks. This is not an inexpensive venue by the way. Not once did a manager type circulate.Special Features:
- Fantasticflatus32250Dined on 12/8/2013Love this place! Great sushi! Awesome rolls and pieces. Superb specials! Great presentation! Sake superb! Service fantastic. We love this place!Special Features:
- Modern ambiance , good fusion foodwindycityDined on 11/3/2013Design here is a welcome change for Jax beaches so I recommend this place just for that - lots of interesting lighting and textured high end materials - beautiful and stylish in a very contemporary way. Think: real modern China! Sushi and fresh rolls were excellent, the cooked food good but needs a greater emphasis on healthy prep and dishes (too many friend meat main and other courses). Sauces need a MUCH lighter hand with fresher more authentic tastes. They use the same brown sauce on all dishes with only minimal variations. Its ok - but not special. Overall though, a good find at the beach, the bar area which is well stocked looks like it can get lively. Would like to see dim sum and traditional crisp roasted(not fried) peking duck!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Awesome food! Wide varietyJaxBch19Dined on 10/5/2013Awesome food! Wide variety of pan-Asian dishes. Excellent sushi, hand rolls and sashimi. Pad Thai is terrific. Great appetizers.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Sushi at the Beach!OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/27/2013My daughter and I rarely get to lunch, when we do we like try new places. We were very impressed with this place.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food ok, but service horribleOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 8/8/2013Giant private room tht we were placed in. Enjoyed that aspect of the meal. Waitress was not good. After she forgot my drink several times, it was finally brought and it tasted like vinegar. I sent it back, but at at that point i was almost done with my meal and didn't want to drink a glass of wine that late. She never brought my friends sauce that was requested. At the end of the meal, she didn't offer to split the bill. Severak people paid in cash and others with credit card. She had the nerve to come back and point out that there was no tip added and she did not take tip from the cash that was paid. Very rude. Although we tipped her 15%, she didn't ever deserve that. Not impressed. Her English was poor, but good enough to argue the tip.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

What do you do in the bathroom - 1 wipe with a huge handfull of toilet paper, or more than 1 wipe with less paper? Let that be your guide.
^^^^ Yep. Well said. Concise, yet absolutely accurate.
Broadbill, you were correct.
Your first is a no sparge with no mashout, and your second is (probably, depending on temperature of the water you add) no sparge WITH a mashout.
With a no sparge, you don't have to recirculate the whole time. Recirculation amounts to a continuous vorlauf. You can manually vorlauf a few times and get similar results.

Saint John the Baptist in the Wilderness- a manifestation of the sublime in art
Saint John the Baptist in the Wilderness- a manifestation of the sublime in art
Paintings have always been an inspiration for mankind. Great paintings by artists are a source of undulated manifestation which has always been looked upon by laymen. Such is the power of paintings that one really goes in a state of trance just having a fleeting glance of the same. Such is the charm of Sir Anthony Van Dyck's brush .
] The artistic presentation of religious and mythological figures and events is not new to the planet earth. Poets, painters and composers have done it repeatedly in their respective creations adding their own typical and quintessential touch. Be it the
Last Supper
by the great
Leonardo Da Vinci
or the immortal
by the maestro
- these classic pieces of art always occupy a special place in the minds of the onlooker. The latest addition to this list is the painting titled-
Saint John the Baptist in the Wilderness
Sir Anthony Van Dyck
that has been installed in the
Houston Baptist University
. Sir Anthony belonged to the school of arts named
Flemish Baroque
, an art form produced during the late 16th century, when the Dutch Republic split from the Habsburg Spain regions. A major feature of Flemish Baroque is the immense influence of the historic facts and characters and religious aspects that changed the course of the world. This portrait of Saint John by Sir Anthony Van Dyck is donated by William and Sharon Morris and is installed in the Belin Chapel in the Morris Cultural Arts Center on the Houston Baptist University campus. Elated with the contribution, the President of Houston Baptist University, Robert B. Sloan Jr observed,
"We are honored that William and Sharon, whose pursuit of truth and beauty is reflected in their passion for fine art, have entrusted the University with this very special gift.'
He further added,
"In this magnificent work, we witness a painting whose sublime rendering of the human capacity for sacrifice and resolution is a testament to the Morrises and their faith, as well as the faith that underpins our mission and work at HBU (Houston Baptist University)."
This recent development is very significant and closely associated with the main objective of the University. Houston Baptist University is an independent, private Christian liberal arts institution with a diverse student body. The University is dedicated to the all around development of the intellectual, the social and the spiritual lives of its students. In this connection, one of the donors, Sharon Morris said,
"If its presence here on campus brings HBU students to a closer relationship with Jesus Christ, that would give us the most joy we could ever hope for."
This particular painting shows Saint John going through a scripture with the focus and trance that is no less than sublime. Clad in a red cloth, his appearance is so aesthetically presented that it inspires awe and respect at the same time. Sir Van Dyck was a past master in human presentation of religious subjects with a composed elegance and feel. Going by the artistic quality of the painting, no critic would help admiring the stunning tonal composition and use of carefully chosen colours. The real connoisseurs of art, beyond the barrier of genre, time and taste will find a call for Saint John the Baptist in the Wilderness. Spirituality is something that comes from within and it might take any form- a ballad, a sculpture, a tune and in this case a portrait. The craftsmanship and the care with which this painting is created shows how much the soul of the artist was at work during its formation. A value addition for the state of Houston.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Whether error or ill will, voting system needs fix
OTTAWA -- The Supreme Court is normally a pretty sleepy place in July.
The fact it is convening for a special hearing this Tuesday should alone be enough to suggest the importance of the subject matter.
It is the first time the country's top court is being asked to intervene in a case involving the results of an election.
Regardless of what the court finds, the issues remind us why we shouldn't be smug about our democratic process.
This case has nothing to do with robocalls, the buzzword of politics in Canada in 2012. This involves the legitimacy of more than six dozen ballots cast in the western Toronto riding of Etobicoke Centre.
In May 2011, Conservative Ted Opitz defeated incumbent Liberal Borys Wrzesnewskyj by just 26 votes. It was the second-closest contest in the federal election.
But Wrzesnewskyj began to hear about problems at some polling stations, and after he and his team reviewed the situation, they went to court claiming 180 ballots cast in the riding should be declared void because of problems with the polling records. The problems included people who voted without proper identification, improper records kept by poll workers, and questions some voters showed up to vote in the wrong riding.
On May 18, Ontario Superior Court Justice Thomas Lederer overturned the election results after agreeing 79 of the 180 ballots in question could not be authenticated. His concerns were mainly with votes cast by people whose registration certificates declaring them eligible to vote were either not signed or missing entirely.
Wrzesnewskyj called it a victory for democracy. "It restores people's confidence in the integrity of our electoral processes," he said.
In fact, it did the exact opposite. It proved our system is not infallible and in fact may have gaping holes people with bad intentions could drive a truck through.
We love to believe ourselves one of the greatest democracies in the world, a country where voting is a right with which we can do what we want. Every Canadian gets to vote if he or she wants to do so, no matter the person's income or social status, big, tall, fat or small, regardless of race or religion or education level.
One person, one vote, is the mantra we live by, the foundation of the legitimacy given to every government we elect.
But if that's not actually happening -- if the process we've set up to ensure our democracy is protected has failed -- it shouldn't be dismissed. Opitz argued that to overturn these ballots would let regulation and technicalities erode individuals' right to vote.
Elections Canada head Marc Mayrand argued in court that these types of "irregularities" are common and that overturning a ballot should not be a decision made lightly.
But if these problems actually happen regularly, shouldn't we be concerned about the impact it may have on the whole vote?
On Friday, months after the court case and just days before the Supreme Court hears the appeal, Elections Canada came forward with information saying it can show 44 of the 79 electors whose ballots were thrown out are in fact on the national list of electors, although questions remain about whether they lived in the riding on election day.
If Elections Canada can show many of the voters are Canadians, that's great. Maybe they can prove in the end that everyone's ballot was valid.
These may be clerical errors. There may have been no ill will on anyone's part. But this isn't the only riding where it was questioned if people being sworn in to vote on election day were doing so legitimately, and the concerns shouldn't be taken lightly.
This isn't about Liberal versus Conservative. The results of this one riding won't change a thing even if the Liberals or NDP were to win it in a byelection instead of the Conservatives.
The Supreme Court decision could tell us what the courts say is more important -- the right of an individual to have his or her vote counted regardless of the rules, or the right of our system to ensure the results are valid.
Regardless of what the court finds, Elections Canada should immediately do whatever it takes to prevent these mistakes from happening again.
That's the only way voters and the system will both win.

— Jeff Jarvis responds to the Tribune bankruptcy. A smart piece, I think, but I'd quarrel with this:
Some [newspapers] are looking at stopping publishing a day or two (which is just stupid: news never happens on Mondays?).
The point of cutting back days is not that "news never happens on Mondays." It's that printing a newspaper isn't profitable on Mondays. There'd still be a little thing called a web site. I'd think Jeff would be more platform-agnostic on that point.

A Planning Priorities Report for Summit
Update: View the Existing Conditions Report!
The Village of Summit is located along the Illinois and Michigan Canal, just 12 miles southwest of downtown Chicago. Since its incorporation in 1890, this historic and ethnically diverse community has grown rapidly and is now home to approximately 11,000 residents who enjoy family-oriented neighborhoods, fine schools, and easy access to the region's highways and transit network. Its close proximity to the Stevenson Expressway, Tri-State Tollway, Chicago Midway International Airport, and Argo Crossing Rail Junction also make Summit a prime location for a growing business district and manufacturing industry.
The Village of Summit sought assistance from CMAP's Local Technical Assistance (LTA) program to improve the built environment and capitalize on the Village's strategic location. Specifically, Summit saw a need for creating a comprehensive plan for the community and was seeking input on the opportunities for housing and transit-oriented development. CMAP and the Village embarked on a comprehensive planning process in late 2013.
Initial conversations with residents, as well as a review of the existing conditions in Summit, revealed that a comprehensive plan is a lower priority given the range of issues facing Summit and the limited institutional support for implementing such a plan. Instead, CMAP staff and the Village of Summit concluded that a planning priorities report would help determine near-term projects that would better address immediate community concerns, as well as take advantage of existing opportunities.
This planning process consists of three main phases. The first phase assesses existing conditions in the Village, including stakeholder engagement. During the second phase, initial recommendations will be created and vetted with Village staff and officials. The third phase will include report creation, community feedback, and report adoption.
Public Engagement
A primary goal of this project is to elevate community engagement in planning through a variety of outreach strategies. A series of workshops, on-line survey opportunities, and public meetings will be scheduled throughout the course of this project to gather input from stakeholders living, working, or regularly visiting the Village of Summit.
A visioning public workshop was held on Tuesday, June 17 from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. at Graves Elementary School. This visioning workshop was designed to help determine how Summit will look in 2030. It served as an opportunity for residents, business owners, and community members to leave a legacy for future generations.

Antennas Direct Introduces CPA-19 Pre-amplifier
Dec. 5, 2008: ST. LOUIS, Mo. â As people are hooking up their converter boxes to their analog televisions, they are realizing their old-generation antennas arenât picking up the digital signal. Why? The next story in the DTV conversion saga regards digital antenna reception and ways to enhance it. Antennas Direct announced its latest innovation in DTV reception, the CPA-19 preamplifier. The CPA-19 preamplifier enhances signal strength, prevents signal loss and minimizes disruptions in order to maintain the best in digital picture reliability and consistency.
As the next generation in high-performance antenna preamplifiers, the CPA-19 is a commercial-grade preamplifier that generates very little noise and retains a high resistance to signal overload. A noisy amplifier can create signal interference. An overloaded amplifier can distort the signal and prevent the digital tuner from locking in channels.
âCommonly available amplifiers often do more harm than good,â? said Richard Schneider, Antennas Direct founder and president. âThe CPA-19 has excellent resistance to overload. It can handle extreme ratios of strong and weak signals with little distortion. And its noise figures are among the lowest we have ever measured. The CPA-19 is the best in class in terms of overall balanced performance.â?
The CPA-19 preamplifier is the first in a series of commercial-grade, low-noise preamplifiers optimized for digital television. âIt is superior to consumer-grade antenna preamplifiers currently available but is offered at a consumer-grade price — $80,â? Schneider said.
The CPA-19, compatible with any TV antenna, was engineered with a modest gain to prevent overdriving receivers, and its advanced design filters out radio and other signal interference. Its RF casing provides additional protection from interference.
⢠Max Gain: 18.4 dB VHF, 17.3 dB UHF
⢠Noise Figure: 1.7 dB VHF, 2.0 dB UHF
⢠Frequency Range: Amplifies 174 MHz â 216 MHz and 470 MHz â 700 MHz
⢠Size: 4.5â?h. X 5â?w. X 4â?l.
⢠Power Supply: 12V DC, 200 MA
⢠Impedance: 75 Ohm Output and Input
⢠MRSP: $79.99 — includes power inserter and two, 3-foot coaxial cables
About Antennas Direct
Antennas Direct is a St. Louis-based manufacturer and distributor of over-the-air antennas. The company was founded by Richard Schneider in 2003 and has since been widely recognized for superior product design and performance by a number of industry publications and mainstream media outlets. Having invested major resources into the discovery and implementation of new technological advances in television antenna design, Antennas Direct continually tests and modifies antenna designs, raising the bar by which antenna performance and appearance are measured.

IOCP is making a very positive impact in our community. In addition to meeting emergency needs of less fortunate people in our area, my observation is that IOCP is helping many to become independent and stable. I see the staff of IOCP as competent and highly efficient, making good use of every dollar contributed. I believe IOCP is a great organization to give time and skills in a volunteer capacity. IOCP helps the whole community to be engaged in helping others and celebrating successes. Thank goodness there is an IOCP in our community.

main index
"Hey Phoebe, maybe you can help me understand something that's baffled women since the beginning of time: Why do they continue to be represented by shows that think a woman shouldn't even tell a dude she's breaking up with him before jumping on the date wagon? Why do they set up a double standard that makes all of us look stupid?"Something is released to the public, and something in it offends a group of people, say for instance, Buddhists. Members of that group call in to complain and express their distaste, but there's a twist: the creator of the work is also a Buddhist! Why would a Buddhist create something that offends Buddhists? Differences in opinion, most likely. Maybe this Buddhist isn't offended by certain things that offend others, and didn't realize there would be a problem. Or maybe they did realize there would be a problem, and plowed ahead because they felt membership in the group gave them particular insight into airing uncomfortable observations. The point is, that while works must be judged on their own qualities, the personal background of an author can serve to make any accusation of bias more complex to unravel. And in a world where the differences, both real and imaginary, make interaction all the more complicated, that's saying something. For the record, it is just as condescending to presume all members of a group must share the same opinions about what is offensive, as to presume that anyone who offers a harsh depiction of a group must be an outsider: that's the same logic that leads people to argue that something isn't offensive to a group because they have a friend from that group who's okay with it. And that way lies madness. Note that intentionally mocking your own group, particularly for comedic reasons, is Self-Deprecation (sometimes overlapping with N-Word Privileges), a different trope. May result from Poe's Law. Compare Stop Helping Me!, Stop Being Stereotypical. Note that this may not stop those most offended from branding the creator in question as a Category Traitor and/or Boomerang Bigot, wrongfully or otherwise. The inverse is Mexicans Love Speedy Gonzales, where a depiction of a group of people by an outsider that some might consider stereotypical or negative is nevertheless embraced by real members of that group. Compare My Country Tis of Thee That I Sting, where the creator is offending their own country.
