Learning from Life – A Journal
Reweaving Trust
One of a things that are many severe for me in life is when someone else's function is unintelligible to me. Even if a chairman is dear and close, they turn foreign. It's not utterly that we decider a person, nonetheless it's transparent to me that that chairman competence good knowledge it as such. It's an knowledge of aloneness, mystery, and anguish. It's utterly heated when a treacherous function appears to me to be lacking care.
During these final few weeks, we sat down with a chairman dear and tighten whom we will call Amanda, who, for several weeks, acted towards me in ways that we didn't know how to appreciate solely as a sum deficiency of care. This is someone we see unequivocally regularly, so avoiding a emanate was not utterly an choice (yes, these days, with a stress on my image from so many directions, we do opt for vouchsafing go of solution conflicts some of a time, with measureless unhappiness and loss).
As large as my agonise was when we started, a few mins into a review it got even harder. we had to dispute decades of habits of giving adult (only locally, never globally, we now know of myself) in sequence to select to refocus a review on me when Amanda shifted concentration to herself usually as we was finally starting to speak about my possess experience. The turn of my agonise was large enough, and Amanda's feelings that kept her from staying benefaction with me heated enough, that we am assured that many people would have given adult on a attribute during this point. The intensity, for both of us, was since we didn't have a common definition for what a dispute was or wasn't. Still, we didn't give up. We talked and cried for a integrate of hours, and used a full art of dialogue, both of us being deeply enthralled in a practices of Nonviolent Communication. There was zero about firmness or fairness. It was usually about what was possible, for possibly and both of us, during any impulse in a conversation. We managed. we understood, in full, a source of her behavior. It helped immensely that she was means to acknowledge, with impassioned sadness, that, indeed, she had no entrance to caring in a astringency of what her knowledge was. That, finally, authorised me to be means to make clarity of her tellurian choices. Once that is in place, care is restored, and two-way upsurge is probable again. What a triumph. we was spent during a finish of a evening, and deeply grateful to Marshall Rosenberg, but whose discoveries and teachings we would never have schooled what we now know that helps me stay by these agonizing conversations.
Marketing that Makes Sense to Me
The unequivocally same day in that we had a strident part of helplessness and rancour we wrote about final week we had a finish meltdown about marketing. Dear friends of cave who know a whole lot some-more about selling than we do were giving me recommendation and providing feedback that was unequivocally severe for me to take in, formulating a rip in me between being permitted and being in fixing with myself. This happened gradually, so we didn't feel a erosion of firmness in me until it was unequivocally loud, so shrill that from one impulse to a subsequent we usually couldn't continue in a process. Instead of reworking difference and paragraphs, or charity choice bullet points, that we had already finished some-more than once, we crashed. Leaning on a trust and adore in these longtime relationships, we let it loose. we don't even know accurately what we wrote, we usually dumped all a anguish that was vital inside me. Although we didn't have any visualisation of them, and we took shortcoming for my knowledge and feelings, we wrote but sufficient clarity, since we had no thought what we wanted instead. we usually reached my maximum. Instead of caving in (which we do, all appearances to a discordant notwithstanding), we stood adult for myself, even before meaningful what we wanted.
The subsequent day we had a review with my sister Inbal, who helped me name clearly what we wanted, a unequivocally core substructure of a whole use we live and teach. Another crony upheld me by essay a breeze of an wholly opposite proceed to a marketing. we breathed a whine of relief, and sat down to finish it. Then we sent it to a strange people, and they favourite it but any serve suggestions. we was so deeply beholden to them, and so gay that my clarity of trust was reciprocated.
Moral of a story: vocalization my law doesn't have to bluster relationships, erode trust, or have upsetting outcomes. It might, and it infrequently will, and it competence not. It could also, instead, infrequently lead to formula that everybody likes better. Especially , generally when longstanding love, trust, and common practices exist. Exactly what we learn people became loyal for me in that moment.
An astonishing benefit: we schooled something about selling that we am anticipating to reason on to for a prolonged time. Marketing contingency be accurate and honest about what is being offered, so a right people are attracted, not usually any people. Regardless of how many or few are a right match, they are a ones that will make a try flower over time. The some-more we can be transparent about what it is that we am charity and who would be a fit for it, a some-more my selling efforts will perform their purpose: formulating sustainability by understanding and selection.

Since forming Svyati Duo in 2009 Rebecca Hepplewhite (cello) and Julian Collings (organ) have gained international critical acclaim, both for their concert performances and commercial CD releases. Heralded as 'exemplary' performers by Fanfare Magazine, their concert engagements have taken them to venues throughout Europe, the United States of America and Asia.
Svyati Duo take their name from Julian and Rebecca's first collaboration, as conductor and cellist in a performance of Sir John Tavener's masterpiece 'Svyati' for solo cello and choir. Tavener subsequently became the duo's Patron the following year and remained so until his death in 2013. Rebecca and Julian maintain a diverse and exciting repertoire, from Baroque sonatas through to substantial romantic and contemporary works, and are committed to performing music that displays the diversity of their instrumental combination. A tireless search for repertoire continues to reward them with unjustly neglected, original works in addition to commissioning new music and transcribing existing pieces.
The duo has performed in venues of all sizes, from churches and town halls to major cathedrals and concert halls. Recent highlights include a recital at the Hong Kong Cultural Center, where they performed to an audience of 1600, and a concert at Worcester Cathedral, which included a performance of their own transcription of Elgar's Cello Concerto. Recipients of awards from the RVW Society and the Leche Trust, Svyati Duo have commissioned new works from leading composers including David Bednall, Russell Hepplewhite, Iain Farrington and Timothy Salter, and have premiered many works by other living composers.
Svyati Duo have recorded two CDs on the Regent Records label, both of which received unanimous critical acclaim and have since been featured on radio stations both in the UK and overseas. Their third recording will be released in 2015 and will feature both baroque and contemporary music including several of the duo's own commissions. Forthcoming performing engagements include further concert tours of the USA and a number of recitals in Germany and the UK.
Svyati Duo look forward to recording their third disc for Regent Records in August.
Details of all forthcoming performances are displayed on the Concerts page.
Svyati Duo's recordings on the Regent Records label are available through all major retailers or directly from this website. Please click here for audio extracts or contact us to order.

After hunting with shotgun and slugs for booners out here in Indiana for a few years, i got fed up with the recoil and inconsistent accuracy...
Finally got myself a single shot 44 mag rifle for gun season.
I'm thinking about reloading, but have never done so before. I'm the kind of guy that built my own computer, ties my own flies, etc. so i think i will really enjoy reloading.
My goal is an effective road for deer hunting. Right now I shoot LeverRevolution by Hornady, and like them a lot.
Can someone tell me everything i will need for reloading? any suggestions/tips/equipment recommendations would be great.

My ruger 44 carbine likes the 300grn hornady softpoints. They can be hard to find but you dont need many to load up for deer season.
I prefer really heavy softpoint bullets for deer. They dont expand much so there is little meat damage but it knocks the deer dead on the spot.
"Gun control: The theory that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her panty hose, is somehow morally superior to a woman explaining to police how her attacker got that fatal bullet wound." L. Neil Smith
The problem with being stupid is you cannot simply decide to stop doing dumb things...
I was a Lightfield die-hard fan for so many years because my drop shot percentage was around 85%.... I wasn't too sure about the 44 mag performing on deer...
I have been told a 150 yard shot is no problem. What do you think?
I haven't seen the 300 grain Hornadys... ill look for them.
For reloading, the FIRST thing to get is a book- called The ABCs of Reloading.Amazon.com: The ABCs Of Reloading: The Definitive Guide for Novice to Expert (9781440213960): Rodney James: Books
Beyond that, you will need a press, dies, shell holder, scales, brass, powder, primers and bullets. The equipment RARELY wears out- shop carefully on Ebay (GOD I hate them!) and it can be pretty cheap. There are other things you can add later, but that is about the bare bones.
What we have here is... failure- to communicate.

I learned many interesting things about DC Shoes when I met with Global President Nick Adcock and Senior Vice President, North American General Manager Mark Miller at ASR.
One theme emerged crystal clear: DC has big ambitions, and has a plan to get there.
"We believe DC can compete with major sports brands of the world," Nick said. "We are always pushing ourselves. We are looking beyond our industry for inspiration."
For the recent X Games in Los Angeles, the company envisioned what a large sports company would do if a major sporting event was held in its backyard.
DC rented the Standard Hotel in Los Angeles for several days, flew in 35 retailers, company sales reps and others, hosted parties every night and took its guests to the X Games.
One reason DC can afford to put on such an event is its phenomenal growth.
DC's revenue grew 56 percent last year, Mark said. In the fiscal year ended Oct. 31, 2007, DC accounted for 15 percent, or approximately $364 million, of Quiksilver's $2.43 billion in revenue, according to Quiksilver's SEC filings.
Previously, DC set a plan to reach $500 million in sales in five years. The company will accomplish that in four.
Nick said the company is evolving from a U.S.-centric skate brand when Quiksilver bought it in 2004, into a global premium sports brand.
Here are more details:
Economy: It will be hard to match DC's 56 percent growth rate in 2008, but the company revenues will still grow double digits, Mark said.
"We are working on the basis that when things get better, we want to maintain market share and continue building," Nick said. "We added 40 people this year and will add 40 people next year."
Mark and Nick don't let their staff dwell on recession talk.
"You don't have to be down because the world is down," Mark said. Even in this market, there are always exceptions."
And DC is the exception. Parent company Quiksilver has repeatedly said DC is currently the key growth driver for the company.
In the third quarter ended July 31, for example, DC recorded growth in the Americas while sales declined for Roxy and Quiksilver brands, according to Quiksilver's filings. DC apparel showed particularly strong growth.
Apparel: DC apparel has evolved from T-shirts, hats and fleece five years ago to a full cut-and-sew line that is tailored to different distribution channels, including the core market, mall retailers such as Zumiez and PacSun, and department stores.
It has also expanded the offering by age and gender, and now have boys 2 to 7, boys 8 to 20, young men's, women's and snow.
The DC apparel has been in department stores for about a year, and is experiencing double digit growth, Mark said. He said the company moved into the channel slowly and conservatively because it did not have experience with department stores.
The Quiksilver advantage: Mark said the Quiksilver team "held our hands" as DC moved into the department store channel and made key introductions. The relationship with Quiksilver has "accelerated our growth. Doors have swung open for us," he said.
Nick spends one day a week at Quiksilver headquarters, soaking up the knowledge of the senior management team, which has deep experience growing an action sports brand. "Every screw up, they've made or avoided," Nick said.
When Quiksilver bought DC in 2004, sales were approximately $100 million.
Nick said there's no way DC could have grown so rapidly without Quiksilver's backing.
"We wouldn't have had a hope in hell of growing from a $100 million, private company to where we are today," Nick said.
The global opportunity: Mark, previously senior vice president of sales, was recently promoted to general manager of North America.
As of Sept. 1, the company hired Gary Parsons as the general manager for the Asia Pacific region, a new position. He joins DC from K-Swiss where he was the company's international president.
The general manager of Europe, Matthieu Bazil, has been in that position for 2.5 years.
With key global general managers in place, the goal is to free Nick to focus on larger, global issues instead of worrying about the daily nuts and bolts of the business.
Now, Nick said he is focusing on the business three to five years out, the vice presidents are looking 18 months to three years out, and the managers focus on now to 18 months out.
Nick said DC growth in Europe is very strong for the entire brand. The company sees a big opportunity in snow in Europe now that DC has both hard and soft goods to offer.
Southeast Asia and China will get an even bigger push in the near future as the new general manager for the region gets going.
South America and Eastern Europe are big targets for growth. "Russia is going crazy," Nick said.
Structurally, DC operates its global design, marketing and corporate headquarters from Vista, then has regional marketing and sales offices in key global territories.
"Our heads are down, and we are working on hard on what we can achieve," Mark said.

Houston's MetroRail and contractor Houston Rapid Transit (HRT) are blazing light-rail tracks on the North, East and Southeast lines, and chilling 9,000 pounds of ice each day to make sure crews stay cool enough to work during the season's high temperatures. Maintaining safety on the new lines (scheduled to open in 2014) calls for expertise and coordination and Safety Coordinator Daniel "Red" Motley has plenty to offer. Motley comes to Metro with 30-plus years of experience, most recently in the mid-east as construction safety leader for one of the largest petro-chemical projects ever attempted. Today, he is in the field daily, checking on rail expansion crews and work conditions.Crews are given regular training to prevent and recognize heat illness. Construction schedules are adapted for worker safety so activities start between 5 a.m. and 6 a.m. and usually end by 2 p.m. Crews are instructed to be aware of and limit disturbance to the community during early hours."Safety is a core value for both Metro and HRT," notes Douglas Reehl, HRT project director. "We firmly believe that every accident is preventable. A safe workplace is our goal, and we strive constantly to find new strategies to meet it."The heat index is tracked daily, Reehl says, and precautions taken, but work halts when the index reaches 105. In addition to earlier work hours, each crew has extended break time and shaded pop-up tents and tables, with water coolers, sports drinks and access to ice. HRT trucks also make daily deliveries of fresh oranges and popsicles to crews to maintain hydration.

A review of the new Criterion release of Monte Hellman's "The Shooting" and "Ride in the Whirlwind."
The first objective in the morning is to treat the hangover with a little judicious maintenance drinking. "Smashed" shows that it knows that in its opening minutes. Alcoholism doesn't require the kind of flamboyant craziness we see in movies like "The Hangover," but it does seem to require an introverted monitoring of whether you feel as good (or well) as you think you should.
Why do alcoholics begin down the same hazardous road day after day? They are in search of that elusive window of well-being that opens when you drink your way out of a hangover and aren't yet drunk all over again. The alcoholic's day consists of trying to keep that window open. Kate Hannah, the heroine of "Smashed," finishes yesterday's beer while she's brushing her teeth. In the parking lot at her job, she commences the new day's self-medication with a swig from a flask.
Kate (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) teaches the third grade, and we see her doing a pretty good job of it, until she is overtaken with a sudden spasm of vomiting. One thing seasoned drinkers learn is that your "recovery drinking" involves making peace with your stomach. She tried to rush things.
What do you say after you hurl in front of a classroom of children? They think they understand: "Mrs. Hannah, are you pregnant?" Yes! Yes! That's it! Kate Hannah agrees almost thankfully. Inevitably, that leads to more problems at school, and then the assistant principal, Dave Davies (Nick Offerman), asks her to come into his office. He is a member of Alcoholics Anonymous, saw her drinking in her car and can add two plus two.
James Ponsoldt's "Smashed" knows a lot about alcoholism, and it also knows about the good times that can go along with it. This is a serious movie about drinking but not a depressing one. You notice that in the way it handles Charlie (Aaron Paul), Kate's husband. He is also her drinking buddy. When two alcoholics are married, they value each other's company because they know they can expect forgiveness and understanding, while a civilian might not choose to share their typical days.
Kate gives AA a try. Dave takes her to a meeting, and she quickly acquires a sponsor, Jenny (Octavia Spencer, from "The Help"). Charlie continues to drink, and he misses his wife, but he isn't angry, he's more puzzled. He wants her to return to the party. They say the most dangerous words a drunk can hear are, "A little drink won't hurt you."
Mary Elizabeth Winstead is sort of wonderful in this movie, worn and warm. She doesn't play a victim. She has that courage an alcoholic requires to persist in the punishment of getting drunk day after day. Life is a toboggan run into uncertain darkness. One night, she passes out and sleeps all night in the open air. She accepts this as part of the game. Many a puzzling dawn has the practicing alcoholic experienced.
The success of "Smashed" comes in the way it embraces Kate's life force. It's filled with strong supporting characters, including Principal Barnes (Megan Mullally), who doesn't understand the disease very well, and Dave Davies, who gets her to a meeting and then wants to hurry her through the 12 Steps so they can arrive at the 13th, if you know what I mean. Mary Kay Place plays Kate's mother, who has no idea she's an alcoholic herself. Spencer is a firm and sturdy sponsor who has been there, done that and can't be fooled.
The movies have a way of presenting alcoholism and drug addiction as titanic struggles. So indeed they can be. But for Kate, who no doubt classified herself as a "functioning alcoholic," sobering up can be easy and even kinda fun. That's until she figures out that "being dry" and "being sober" are not the same thing.

Raglan Road Lyrics - Van Morrison
Traditional, words by Patrick Kavanagh, arranged by Van Morrison/Paddy Moloney
On Raglan Road on an Autumn Day,
I saw her first and knew
That her dark hair would weave a snare
That I may one day rue.
I saw the danger, yet I walked
Along the enchanted way
And I said let grief be a falling leaf
At the dawning of the day.
On Grafton Street in November,
We tripped lightly along the ledge
Of a deep ravine where can be seen
The worst of passions pledged.
The Queen of Hearts still baking tarts
And I not making hay,
Well I loved too much; by such and such
Is happiness thrown away.
I gave her the gifts of the mind.
I gave her the secret sign
That's known to all the artists who have
Known true Gods of Sound and Time.
With word and tint I did not stint.
I gave her reams of poems to say
With her own name there and her shiny dark hair
Like the clouds over fields of May.
On a quiet street where old ghosts meet,
I see her walking now away from me,
So hurriedly. My reason must allow,
For I have wooed, not as I should
A creature made of clay.
When the angel woos the clay,he'll lose
His wings at the dawn of the day

|Pearl holds pep rally less than 2 hours before tipoff, promises history
|Written by Admin
|Saturday, 23 February 2008 16:13
And Pearl promised history.
``All I can tell you is we're 40 minutes away from being No. 1,'' Pearl said after high-fiving fans packed into the private room of a sports restaurant a couple blocks away from the FedExForum.
Big words from the coach of a program that never has been ranked first, at least not in men's basketball.
Women's basketball, football? Sure.
But with Pearl, the Volunteers (24-2) went into Saturday night's showdown with Memphis enjoying a No. 2 ranking that is the highest in school history. And this was the Vols' first time ever in a No. 1 vs No. 2 matchup, the 38th all-time and only the fifth featuring teams from the same state.
So why not something else to remember for a program that went into this game 2-10 all-time against No. 1 teams with the last victory over a top-ranked team way back on Dec. 2, 1969, against South Carolina.
A loss wouldn't hurt the next goal this season for the Volunteers - their first outright Southeastern Conference championship in 41 years.
It was a lot to take in for Tennessee fans, who sat on the tops of booths for Pearl's pep rally and filled every inch of space even with security trying to keep tabs on the crowd. For Pearl, it was part of a logical progression from when a crowd of 22,000 watched his first Tennessee game less than three seasons ago.
``It's an unbelievable feeling,'' Pearl said.
The pep rally was part of a viewing party organized by Memphis-area alumni from the University of Tennessee, but this wasn't the first time Pearl has done this.
He met with fans before tipoff against Tennessee two seasons ago, part of how he works to build support from one end of the Volunteer State down to the western tip here 390 miles away from home in Memphis.
Don Corey, a 1970 graduate of Tennessee and now an educator in Shelby County, said he was at the event two years ago when only 50 people met with Pearl. He was waiting to listen to Pearl in a crowd of about 300 Saturday before heading over with six others to buy tickets, even if he had to wait until after tipoff.
``It's unbelievable. He's unbelievable,'' Corey said of Pearl's charisma and friendliness with fans. ``He acts that way all the time.''
Pearl has ulterior motives.
He targeted Memphis' rich high school basketball pool almost as soon as he was hired. He lost Willie Kemp to Memphis coach John Calipari and most recently watched Elliot Williams commit to Duke last November over both Tennessee and the Tigers.
The Tennessee coach did land Memphis native J.P. Prince when the guard decided to leave Arizona midway through his freshman season, even though Prince's father, John, was an assistant at Memphis in the mid-1990s under then-coach Larry Finch.
Pearl also signed Vols sophomore Wayne Chism from Jackson - an hour east of Memphis.
And he can work fans into a frenzy with the best, leading the crowd in a chant before talking about how ready his Vols were for what he said would be their toughest game on the road to the Final Four - which would be another first in Tennessee history.
Pearl told the lucky fans who had tickets to cheer loudly for the Vols. He left after spending less than three minutes in the room, then left with an escort to head over to the FedExForum.

Nyack News
Distinguished Christian Scholars at Nyack/ATS Faculty Retreat
Faculty of Nyack College and Alliance Theological Seminary (ATS) will convene for an annual retreat on August 27-28 at the Rockland County, NY campus hosted by Nyack's Center for Scholarship and Global Engagement. The Center is directed by Dr. Vilma "Nina" Balmaceda.
Headlining the event will be two of our nation's leading Christian scholars. Nyack College and ATS professors will also be featured in a special faculty presentation and two special moderated panels.
On Monday, August 27 in the chapel of Alliance Theological Seminary, 350 North Highland Ave. in Nyack, Dr. Joel Carpenter (pictured above) will present his keynote address, "Faithful Scholarship in an Age of World Christianity." Dr. Carpenter is the director of the Nagel Institute for the Study of World Christianity at Calvin College in Grand Rapids, MI and the former provost of Calvin College (1996-2006). Prior to this post, he was director of the religion program at Pew Charitable Trusts for seven years.
He received his Ph.D. in history from Johns Hopkins University. His area of expertise is religious history and the transformation of global Christianity. His latest work is Walking Together: Christian Thinking and Public Life in South Africa (ACU Press, 2012). Other publications by Dr. Carpenter include The Changing Face of Christianity: Africa, the West, and the World (Oxford, 2005) co-edited with Lamin Sanneh; a chapter, "The Christian Scholar in an Age of World Christianity," in the book, Christianity and the Soul of the University, (Douglas Henry and Michael Beaty, Eds. Grand Rapids: Baker Academic, 2006); and his award-winning study, Revive Us Again: The Reawakening of American Fundamentalism (Oxford, 1997).
Following Dr. Carpenter's address, two panels will be presented featuring Nyack/ATS faculty.
Panel One, 11:00 a.m. - "How do we advance Christian scholarship in the sciences?"
Dr. Frank, Chan, professor of theology; Dr. Michael Huster, professor of physics; Dr. Peter Park, assistant professor of biology; and Dr. Jacqueline Washington, professor of biology are the panelists. Dr. Richard Gathro, special assistant to President Michael G. Scales will serve as moderator.
Panel Two, 2:45 p.m. - "How do we advance Christian scholarship in theology and make it relevant for future generations?"
Featured panelists are Dr. Vilma "Nina" Balmaceda, associate professor of political science; Dr. Luis Carlo, associate dean, Alliance Theological Seminary, NYC campus; Dr. Martin Sanders, director of the Doctor Ministry program; and Dr. Ron Walborn, dean of Alliance Theological Seminary.
Dr. James Danaher, a Nyack professor of philosophy will present, "Jesus After Modernity: A 21st Century Critique of our Modern Concept of Truth and the Truth of the Gospel" on Monday at 1:30 p.m. A response to the presentation will be given by Mr. Udo Middelmann, LLM, MA, CSGE International Scholars in Residence.
Tuesday, August 28, Dr. Peter A. Facione, head of Measured Reasons LLC, a Los Angeles based research and consulting firm supporting excellence in teaching will present a keynote speech, "Teaching For and About Critical Thinking," in the auditorium of Nyack College's Pardington Hall, 45 South Boulevard in Nyack. The former provost of Loyola University Chicago and dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at Santa Clara University (pictured at left) is also the author of numerous books on critical thinking. Dr. Facione has addressed the topic of critical thinking at dozens of universities around the world. He is known as an engaging, innovative, and humorous presenter.

An excellent field guide. Lincoff includes "look-alike" species, with descriptions to help tell them apart. Very reassuring for the beginner.
"In celebration of the centennial of Roger Tory Peterson's birth comes a historic collaboration among renowned birding experts and artists to preserve and enhance the Peterson legacy. This new book combines the Peterson Field Guide to Eastern Birds and the Peterson Field Guide to Western Birds in one volume, filled with accessible, concise information and including almost three hours of video podcasts to make bird watching even easier."
The Smithsonian Handbooks series of field guides includes excellent illustrations, with notations that show you what to look for when trying to determine what species you're observing. Watch out for big white whales, however!

Principal leadership
Parent involvement
This school is closed and empty due to budget cuts. This WAS a great school! We will miss it.
I have substituted at Falling Springs Elementry School several times and enjoy it very much. The teachers are so involved with the children and they do a wonderful extracurricular program which allows the child time for bible study if they choose to get involved. The children are disciplined very well. I also would like to add that the teachers and staff make everyone substitues and parents fell welcome to their school. I have decided that when I have children if I still live in the area I will want my children to attend Falling Springs Elementry.

TEN-TEC is proud to announce that we are the exclusive distributor in the US for YouKits brand products.
The first product we are introducing from YouKits is the FG-01 a 1 to 60 MHZ Antenna Analyzer. This is not a kit but a fully assembled unit ready for use. The FG-01 utilizes the latest in SMT technology to provide a compact unit with lots of value.
This antenna analyzer is the smallest (measures less than 4" tall) and easiest antenna analyzer to use on the market today. It has a color display that graphically shows you the SWR and Impedance of the antenna under test. This unit is right at home being carried to the top of the tower or on the bench in your shack.
The FG-01 with its color graphical display allows you to dial in the frequency you wish to operate on and immediately read the SWR and Impedance of the antenna at that frequency. The FG-01 also allows you to easily adjust the frequency to determine the desired SWR points of the antenna. For instance if you wanted to know the 2:1 limits of your antenna you would just change the frequency using the large knob to move the graph to the 2:1 point on the center of the display and read the frequency.
No more guessing where the low SWR point is on your antenna. No more guessing about you antenna characteristics, you just read the SWR and Impedance on the color graphic display or look at the curves to fully understand the characteristics of your antenna.
The FG-01 comes with a wall mounted Lithium battery charger and as of May 1, 2014 is now sold with model R9411 Lithium Batteries included for the FG-01 at a new price.
This unit is sold exclusively in the US by TEN-TEC and has a one-year replacement warranty. This unit is not manufactured by TEN-TEC therefore the non TEN-TEC manufactured return policy applies.
Note: The knob on some of the later model units may be chrome or silver instead of black.

I've been using a big, clunky MFJ-259B - even when traveling. It works great but it's 4x bigger than the YouKits analyzer... as big as my KX3!
I'm very impressed with the YouKits analyzer. It's simple to use and works great. I wish that it included a BNC to SO-239 adapter... although I had a couple laying around.
If you travel or like to work portable, this is a great piece of gear!
Posted by Evan WB5KOJ on 26th Sep 2013
This thing works great. Easy to use and dead on accurate. The display is sharp and bright. The graphical display is a much better way to see what is going on than other units that just give you single point numerical data. I recommend buying the internal battery pack (don't know why it does not come with that as standard). For the money this one is hard to beat!
Posted by Merl Hoover on 25th Sep 2013
This product is so much more than you will expect. TEN-TEC might consider upgrading their utube video and brochures. My unit is one with some upgrades from those indicated. The SWR Column now has 2 digits 1.0 1.5 2.0 3.0. the menu now has an indicator for storing and selecting MEM 0 thru 9. just above the Battery Indicator. That Column has been adjusted to align with the column on the left. Apparently the font size as been adjusted to accommodate these changes. The documentation is sparse. For me or many it will be a handy tool and a learning Aid. I have found myself thinking of the SW as a zoom feature. There is no instruction as to installing the Optional Battery or the supplied battery case. The battery use is longer than I had expected, but keep aware of the warning re the recharge point.
When you determine that the back has to be removed to install the Battery feature, be AWARE THERE ARE TWO (2) screws to be removed. On my unit the top screw was covered by a sticker MADE IN CHINA. That caused me some difficulty. There might be additional features in the future. A USB PORT, for upgrading the software, and transferring data or instructions as to how to make a connection to a Pc for software upgrades. IT IS A KEEPER +++

I have used my friends MFJ, but decided it was time to own one myself. I am partial to Ten Tec so I checked out the video review and decided to give it a try. I was blown away ! How neat is it to see the entire SWR spectrum and impedence on a graph. It makes adjusting an antenna a breeze. Without a doubt the best analyzer on the market. Make sure to pick up the internal battery and the BNC adaptor.

I have used another antenna analizer, but this is sweet,small and handy. It is simple to use and a well designed, useful tool for any Ham. I consider it a great tool.
Dick, W6KM
Posted by Mike, N7DGI on 3rd Apr 2013
As others have noted, this is a great product that does an excellent job. Until it quits after your warranty is out, then Ten-Tec doesn't service them, just "throw it in a box to go back to China, don't know how long or what it will cost". So, $250 down the drain. Buyer beware!
Posted by Bill K6ACJ on 17th Feb 2013
After 6 trips to various California and Arizona Desert Campouts plus local trips to the beach, the FG-01 has performed flawlessly allowing me to rapidly deploy my various HF antennas and switch bands then retune in seconds. The bright color LCD does not wash out in bright light like my iPhone. I am using my own Lithium batteries and the supplied charger without problems. Yes, like any antenna analyzer it will pick up strong EMI/RFI but it worked fine at Quartzfest and Yuma Hamfest where there were many stations on the air.
An improvement could be made to rapidly set the center frequency but its not a problem as-is and the BNC is not a problem because I use a high quality pig tail with SMA adapters.
Battery life is longer than I thought it would be, 1 charge worked for 5 days at Quartzfest and 2-1/2 days operating at Yuma Hamfest.
I'd like to see a robust and small carrying case with just enough space for the charger and a coax pigtail.
Posted by Miguel, LU1DO on 5th Feb 2013
Power supply delivered with FG-01 causes noisy signal to be shown on the lower HF frecuencies, changed to a linear power supply and I get a smooth curve.
Posted by Miguel ,LU1DO on 5th Feb 2013
I use a FG-01 almost every weekend and learn a lot about tuning my wire antennas.
What really needs a revision by the manufacturer, is the fact that the FG-01 gets very warm in relative short time. This forces me to wait till it cools off to a reasonable temp.
Posted by Jim Ashby, K5JCA, WCARES Utah, USA on 14th Jan 2013
I had an issue with my FG-01 failing hours after first use, replacement was received, and now I am back up and running. It was kind of like teasing me into wanting more. The unit works as described, and it does it well. As an Electronics Engineer I was ready to design my own device, but with the cost of the FG-01 being so low, I decided to purchase one and give it a try.
I was surprised to find the FG-01 easy to use and the display give me all of the information I need to tune my various antennas. Within 5 minutes I was able to retune a random length wire antenna to tune away from the Ham bands which allows my auto-tuner to optimize the operational bands. The antenna was tuned in the 40m band and I was not getting good performance in the 80-20-10m bands, now it tunes all four bands well.
Now to build a variable length wire antenna and get it up in the air.
Thank You Ten-Tec! 73


text: 2012: Obama Wanted to Scale Back Pursuit of Al Qaeda, Intel Community Said No Print article Send a Tip by AWR Hawkins 22 May 2014 post a comment While the Obama administration was publicly declaring Al Qaeda was on the run during the 2012 election cycle, behind the scenes they were pushing to "scale back the fight" against Al Qaeda. One problem--the intelligence community would not play along. According to The Daily Beast, the Obama administration produced "a National Intelligence Estimate" in 2012 that said "Al Qaeda was no longer a direct threat to America." However, Defense Intelligence Director General Michael Flynn led a charge against that estimate, and was joined by other figures and agencies in the intelligence community. "Flynn and others made it clear they would not go along with that assessment." Obama set the tone for the National Intelligence Estimate with his 2012 State of the Union, when he said: "Al Qaeda operatives who remain are scrambling, knowing that they can't escape the reach of the United States of America." Yet "during the last year alone, Al Qaeda has established safe havens in Libya, Syria, and Iraq." Even in the face of this reality, the Obama admin continues to spurn the idea of taking the "War on Terror" back up. Instead, an anonymous intelligence official says pressure is still coming "from the top...that Al Qaeda is all these small franchise groups and they are not coordinated or threatening." To a degree, this explains the Obama administration's reliance on drones and quick military strikes that come with no long term commitment. National Security Council spokeswoman Caitlin Hayden said the administration simply wants "a series of persistent, targeted efforts to disrupt, dismantle, and defeat specific networks of violent extremists that threaten the United States."

cash-strapped Rangers and Stephen Pienaar from Tottenham on a permanent deal. Both are expected to start. However, the Blues boss has lost Tim Cahill, who now plays for the New York Red Bulls.
Last meeting: While some fans cite Sergio Aguero's last-gasp strike on the final day of last season as the true turning point of the title race, most will refer to United's late collapse against Everton at Old Trafford. The Reds were 4-2 up and on course to maintain a three point lead over Man City as the game entered the final stages, until late goals from Nikica Jelavic and Pienaar - then on loan - sealed a 4-4 draw which blew the title race wide open.
Opposition boss: After celebrating his 10th anniversary as Everton manager in March, many wondered whether David Moyes might seek a different adventure elsewhere. However, the former Preston North End boss, quite characteristically, remained loyal to the cause and heads into the 2012/13 campaign with fresh optimism following an impressive end to last term. After a stuttering start, Moyes guided the Toffees to a seventh-placed finish, above local rivals Liverpool.
Star man: Widely regarded as one of last season's best buys, Nikica Jelavic quickly become a fans' favourite at Goodison Park having signed from Rangers on the final day of the January transfer window. The powerful Croatian went on to score an impressive 11 goals in 13 games, including two at Old Trafford in April.
Quote/unquote: "The Monday night start doesn't bother me. That's not a big factor. The fact it's Everton away holds much more weight. It's a tough fixture and we've not found it easy there in recent years, despite some good results." - Sir

A neighbor invited me to prepare homemade Chinese dumplings one day. I was thrilled to learn how to make them, and they remain one of my favorite things to eat.As a child, I frequented a restaurant with my family that specialized in dumplings. We always ordered several varieties of steamed dumplings. They came nestled on steamed greens such as cabbage.The sauces were delicacies, too. I always enjoyed this weekly family adventure, but never realized the work that went into each tiny, hand-wrapped package of greatness.My neighbor's dumpling-making session was an all-day affair and that was the beauty of the process. While making dough together, we shared a wonderful conversation about our cultures. The long day of cooking fused our friendship, leading me to the belief that dumpling-making brings people closer together. And at the end, the enjoyment of the delicate, finger-fused dumplings is sort of like a victory party. You can buy dumpling "skins" in small circles often labeled "wonton wrappers." This is a good option if you want to speed things up. Later, you can try making the dough from scratch and go the whole nine yards. The key is not to do this alone. It's much more fun and productive with help, and you will yield a lot more dumplings if you have many fingers at work. Here's an adaptation of my neighbor's lesson with some changes and options. Packaging up the parcelsIf you are making dough from scratch, divide the soft dough into small, round pieces with your hand (these should be small round balls of dough that will roll out thinly to about 3 inches in diameter). Use a small, floured rolling pin and roll out the rounds on a floured surface or piece of parchment paper.Spoon about a tablespoon of pork stuffing/filling into the middle of the dough or wrapper. Now comes the part that takes a little practice: You are going to fold the dough up like you are making a mini-taco, crimping it shut with your fingers.Sometimes, especially when you are using pre-made circular wrappers, you need just a touch of moisture from a damp towel or small cup of water. Moisten your fingers to pinch the dough closed, pushing all of the air out of the dumpling.There are dumpling presses if you want a gadget for the job, but after you get the hang of making these by hand, the process moves fast. Dough made from scratch will close very quickly and easily because there is so much moisture in fresh dough. Regardless if the dough is homemade or not, try to crimp the edges in a regular pattern so that the dumpling will be tight and not fall apart when you are cooking it.If you use store-bought dough rounds, pat on a little cornstarch and press or roll them out just a little to thin them before stuffing them. This will help them hold a little more filling and will produce tender, thin-skinned dumplings. My Chinese friends can almost close a dumpling in the palm of their hands, not even using their fingers. This is a real art. I'm slower with the process but am improving because the more you make, the better you get at making them. If you make a few dumplings that fall apart in the water, laugh it off and celebrate the ones you made perfectly. Trust me, you'll get better.Cooking the dumplingsYou can steam dumplings or saute them in a pan to produce the common "pan fried" variety, which are crispier on the outside. My friends floated their dumplings in boiling water. It is a very easy and fast way to crank them out. They will taste steamed, and they are hot and ready to eat. Just boil water on medium heat, then use a very large spoon to place the dumplings into the hot water, stirring them lightly. When the dumplings float to the surface, boil them about two to four minutes longer. Add 1 cup of cold water and let the pot come to a gentle boil again to ensure they are cooked. Put them in a strainer to remove all excess water and serve immediately. A few weeks after my day of dumpling-making, I attempted the dish on my own using the pre-made dumpling circles, which produced great results. I didn't have the terrific company I'd had with my first batch, but the dumpling dough circles were convenient and made a meal worthy of sharing with friends. I've included a recipe for pork dumplings, which can be steamed or pan-sauteed. We boiled ours, and they were fabulous.
Where to shop
• Cho Saigon New Market, 2206 S. Collins St., Arlington
• Hiep Thai Market, 2430 E. Pioneer Parkway, Arlington
• Nguyen Loi Oriental Supermarket, 5302 E. Belknap St., Haltom City
• Trader Joe's and Central Market have a great selection of Asian foods and specialty foods.
Dumpling dough
Makes about 25-30 medium-size dumplings
10 ounces (2 cups) unbleached all-purpose flour
Pinch of salt
About 3/4 cup just-boiled water, that has been allowed to sit for about 5 minutes
Large bowl
Dish towel
Large wood cutting board or piece of parchment paper to work on
1. Mix the flour, salt and hot (but not scalding hot) water together and work the mixture with a large spatula. Then, making sure that the mixture is not too hot to handle, use your hands to knead the dough until a soft ball forms. If it's too sticky or moist, add a sprinkling of flour and knead until it firms. If it's not moist enough, add drops of water and knead until it forms into a ball or roll. Here is a link to making the dough with a food processor: http://www.chow.com/recipes/28052-basic-dumpling-dough
2. Sift a small amount of flour over the dough ball to coat it lightly. Place the dough in a large bowl that has been sprinkled with flour, cover, and allow the dough to sit 1-2 hours at room temperature. (Two hours is best.)
Dumpling stuffing
1 pound ground pork (My neighbor likes to buy a "fatty" pork mix from a Chinese grocery, but regular ground pork works well, too)
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup sherry cooking wine
1/2 cup soy sauce
2 eggs
6 to 8 stalks spring (green) onion or chives, to taste
1 1/2 inches fresh ginger root, peeled and minced, or to taste
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 pinches of salt
1. Mix water into ground pork and stir in the same direction until sticky.
2. Add cooking wine and soy sauce, again stirring in the same direction.
3. Add eggs, stirring in the same direction. The resulting meat paste will be the filling.
4. Mince the onion and ginger, then mix with the meat paste. Add vegetable oil and salt, mixing well.
5. Stir mixture into a pan on medium heat to very lightly brown or pre-cook it. Set aside.
Dipping sauces
You can make your own sauce by mixing vinegar with a garlic sauce to taste. Or, you can use store-bought Asian-style dipping sauce. My friends used black vinegar, which has a strong, acidic flavor. It's good for dipping meats as well as dumplings. Chinkiang, a brand of black vinegar that can be found at many Chinese markets, originates from the city of Zhenjiang, in the Jiangsu province of China.
Black vinegar
Fresh garlic or garlic paste
Medium-size mixing bowl
Several small dipping bowls
Mix either freshly chopped garlic or garlic paste with the black vinegar, whisking them together in a medium bowl. Divide the mixture into small dipping bowls to be placed within everyone's reach at the table.
Clare's spicy sweet honey & soy dumpling dipping sauce
This produces a sweeter, soy-based dipping sauce.
1/4 cup honey (flower-flavored honeys are great)
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 teaspoon fresh grated or minced ginger
A pinch to 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/8 to 1/4 cup sesame oil
Pinch of sesame seeds
Whisk ingredients together well and serve in small sauce dipping bowls. Notes: Remember that you can use as much or as little of the red pepper flakes as you like — same with the ginger. Also, I used a wildflower honey from Texas, but you can try other flavored honeys.

This study investigates the valuation impact of a firm's decision to cross-list on a more (or less) prestigious stock exchange relative to its own domestic market. We use network analysis to derive broad market-based measures of prestige for forty-five country or regional stock exchange destinations between 1990 and 2006. We find that firms cross-listing in a more prestigious market enjoy significant valuation gains over the five-year period following the listing. We also document a reverse effect for firms cross-listing in less prestigious markets: These firms experience a significant decline in valuation over the five years following the listing. The reputation of the cross-border listing destinations is therefore a useful signal of a firm's value going forward. Our findings are consistent with the view that cross-listing in a prestigious market enhances a firm's visibility, strengthens corporate governance, and lowers informational frictions and capital costs.
