This concealer oxidizes on me pretty bad. I also accidentally bought a shade to dark but with the poor color range...there wasnt really a better option.
I bought this because Kandee Johnson swears by it and so naturally that made me super interested. But dont really have to much to say about it since the color issue. The texture seems creamy and applies really nice though.
Maybe with summer and a beach vacation coming up I could make the color work but I dont think so...Its very yellow-orangey. (I have shade Medium 003).
Would repurchase it in a different shade if I wasnt absolutely IN LOVE with my Mac Studio Finish Concealer.

I heard a lot of ppl say this had sparkles in it but I just ignored it. When I bought it and used it, the sparkles weren't noticeable until I went into sunlight or any type of light. I only used this on certain parts of my face and it made those area sparkly ... Which was really unattractive

I love this concealer for under eye and to cover up any pimple and spots. It's very creamy and blends very well. However if you have any dry skin or flakes it would emphasize it a lot more. Just make sure you moisturise really well on those flakes and dry spots. But then again putting makeup over flakes is hard to make it look smooth so I guess it comes down to skin care first ;) But this is a great creamy concealer for highlighting and hiding spots and pimples

It had good buildable coverage but was dry on my skin. I started using Proactiv so my skin is dry now. The concealer just looked cakey. It was a good price but I need something that's good for dry skin.I would use this if I wasn't using an acne treatment.

Overall this is a pretty good concealer. The color selection is small though, and the one I purchased ended up being slightly lighter than my skin tone. Its not too difficult to blend but it works better with primer. The packaging is compact enough and easy to carry around.

The product itself is pretty good, but the color selection is small and the one I purchased ended up not being the correct shade for me. I sometimes use this as an eyelid primer, which is the only use I can get out of it. Even with my oily eyelids, this makes my eyeshadows look more vibrant and stops them from falling during the day.

The Revlon PhotoReady Concealer is a really nice, creamy, stick concealer. It goes on like butter and blends like a dream. It has quite a high coverage and is great to lighten my very very dark under eye bags. However if you apply it to much it can cake and get quite heavy. Overall I would recommend this to anyone looking for a cheap(ish) concealer that will last long, cover most bags (if not practically black like mine) and to highlight the under eye area.

This is a powerful little concealer! I've never used a stick concealer before and this one doesn't disappoint. It works well under eyes and on blemishes/redness. I have this is 02 Light. It seems to work better for me in the summer time tho -- particularly in the under eye area. I just swipe it and blend away. For blemishes -- I like to tap it on the blemish, let it sit for a bit -- then tap/blend it in. I like the coverage very much.

I got this in the photoready pack, it isn't the best concealer but it's pretty good for your buck, it's quite oily and has does connect with fine lines, but I really like the colour of it as its quite light and works well as an under eye concealer :)

You can do this very simple test: With the two cases side by side, connect a short wire (the shortest possible, cut to length) from one star ground to the other (that is, the ground point of the two PSU caps in each channel). Now turn it on. Less noise? Yes! If they were in the same box, you could get the two channels even closer. Take a look at the pictures in my "PC Gainclone" thread and you'll see what I mean. |

that's what i tried, with a wire about 3" at most in length (as close as i could get em), no difference .. the slight hum is still there
as i said, not affected by volume level, and not audible if you're more than 5-6" away from the speaker |

3" is still too much.
Oh, well... with separate boxes you can't do better... I like to do a circuit on breadboard. Against what most people believe, I manage to make a more compact design than point-to-point. |

nice work but (stupid question): why didn't you put the amps inside the "public" box, it seems to be large and suitable for that???
11th June 2003, 06:22 PM | #25 |
diyAudio Member
i was debating it, and still may do it .. the main reason however was that i wanted to keep the power and the amps separate
when i get some time, i may however move everything to the public amp box .. maybe even make the thing integrated (although i kinda doubt that, until at least i get another amp goin) |
11th June 2003, 06:47 PM | #26 |

This may be a good idea after all, as the umbilical cord from PS to the amp has big influence on the sound. Recently I found out that Cardas is better than Kimber wire, I was using before (more depth in the soundstage)
www.audiosector.com Do something really well. See how much time it takes. It might be a product, a work of art, who knows? Then give it away cheaply, just because you feel that it should not cost so much, even if it took a lot of time and expensive materials to make it. - JC |

Well, the question is whether the effect cables have is more negative than the effect of having both the PS and the 2 channels with the PS.
I'll say it is, at least with the toroids, since the plitron ones seem to be built very well. I hear no buzzing, slight bit on turn on. It also doesn't get warm at all (well barely!). It is something I'll definitely try, maybe even tonight |
11th June 2003, 06:55 PM | #28 |

If I decide to mount them all in the one case, do you guys think just mounting the chips to the bottom of the case will be sufficient for the cooling??? or should I leave them on the tiny heatsinks?

i speak from practically no knowledge, but i think it should be fine. my gainclone ran fine with the chips in mid-air hanging by the leads. now they are on heatsinks that are about 8cm (3") by 3cm (1") with fins about 5mm (1/4")long and they dont even get warm. (both chips on the same heatsink)
If it aint broke, don't fix it. If it is broke, fix it. If you can't fix it, take it apart and see how it "worked". |
12th June 2003, 12:41 AM | #30 |
diyAudio Member
you MUST change the heatsinks if you want to run the amps at higher levels (the ones you have are suited for 5-10W chips)

Save interior space and showcase your DIY skills by building a sliding door from reclaimed building materials and bubble-glass panels.
By Dylan EastmanMore in Blog Cabin
If adding a door opening, be sure to consult a licensed contractor or structural engineer to confirm requirements for load-bearing walls and structural headers. The rolling track can be installed on the wall to the opening header or to the ceiling. For ceiling installations, also ask what blocking may be needed overhead to support the weight of the door. Start by measuring the width of the opening from outside of trim to outside of trim. For the height using a ceiling-mounted track, measure from the floor to the ceiling. For wall-mounted track, measure from the floor to the top of trim.
The final door size for a wall-mounted track should be the width of the opening to the outside of trim by the height of the door opening to the top of the trim minus 1/2 inch. The door size for a ceiling-mounted track should be the width of the opening to the outside of trim by the height of the wall minus the track and wheel depth, blocking and a half inch.

Kipp has this great idea…
What it is, right, is this really cool machine that sort of cleans your shoes like a tiny car wash. Can we make it as an entrepreneur? No, of course not.
February 23, 2011 3:54 by Samuel Potter
Kipp has always struggled with creativity, so we bought ourselves a book from the fantastic "Self-enrichment" section of the book store. 'How to cake yourself in gold and eat it too: A guide to sketching your own rainbow using charcoal,' by Raphael De La Croix has been a revelation for us. We've been more creative at work, more creative in the kitchen and more crea… okay, we'll leave it there.
The point of all this self-enrichment is to find that idea that will help us make it big. We want to be rich, you see – be our own boss, live the dream, etc. In short, we want to be entrepreneurs. And you know what? We're there. Prepare yourselves for: The Shoe-o-matic; our genius idea. It's like a tiny version of a car wash, except it's for your shoes. Little spinning brushes wash and then buff your shoes to a perfect shine, either while you sit and wait or you can take off your shoes and put them on a cycle while you go and do something else. What do you think? Seriously, what do you think?
Okay so the idea is crap, but at least we gave it a go. Sort of. And many of the
entrepreneurs working on their dreams here in the UAE will also find that their ideas are bad. But some will find they have good ideas, and they'll make a go of it. And even those with bad ideas might return with better ones, and get it right second, third of fourth time lucky.
Entrepreneurs are on Kipp's mind this week as they have been all over the news, and for good reason. This week saw the ceremony for the Mohammad Bin Rashid Small and Medium Enterprise Awards for Young Business Leaders, now in its sixth year. Sheikh Mohammad himself was in attendance as Sheikh Hamdan Bin Rashid Al Maktoum presented awards to 14 small and medium sized businesses. See Gulf News on the lick above for a list of winners.

With mobile gaming making massive inroads into the more mainstream console and PC market as developers bring increasingly more technical titles to the Android platforms, the only thing holding the mobile gaming back was its inability to sell gamers on the touchscreen controls that were mandatory to the format. Now, thanks to MOGA, the days of fumbling with your Samsung are over thanks to their stellar Pro Controller.
Following up on the previously well received Pocket Controller, manufacturer MOGA have gone all-out with their latest peripheral that delivers precision and performance to rival even the console controllers as it corners the mobile market with the outstanding addition to the mobile master class of perfect peripherals.
Stylish in design and about as practical in method as it could possibly be, the MOGA Pro Controller weighs in to the growing mobile arena with all the swagger of a champion that knows it is undisputed in its weight class. Throwing functionality, form and features like haymakers and combinations the MOGA Pro easily swats aside the contenders and competition as it knocks all comers and challengers to the canvas on its way to being crowned King of the Android Ring.
Right out of the box the MOGA Pro comes complete with charge cable, ( micro USB ), tablet stand and snappy built-in mobile phone 'arm' which is extendable to secure and handheld in tight fitting snugly security.
( *NB of course there is the down side for some that this is an Android only device, but rather than sticking those petulant 'pet lips' out at MOGA perhaps gamers of the iOS variety should aim them firmly at the fruity manufacturer as it is understood that Apple were not exactly forthcoming during design )
Speaking of design the MOGA Pro now comes looking more like a fully fledged console controller than ever before with the addition of the new D-Pad, analogue sticks, hand stalk grips and four ( A,B,Y,Z ), 'face pad' buttons which give the Pro a definite Xbox feel. Even the actual aesthetics of the MOGA give it the appearance that this controller would be more at home in the hands of a gamers playing Gears of War and Halo as opposed to Angry Birds and Candy Crush Saga.
Bluetooth enabled, Wi-Fi and now with a good feeling of weightiness that gives the gamer a far greater sense of tangible security, ( because it no longer feels like you are going to crush it during a particularly grueling race in World of Speed ), the MOGA Pro also resembles the Xbox style of peripheral, even more so than its PlayStation counterpart, thanks to the off-set thumb sticks which, as has been proven to be the case with gamers of the Xbox360 and the Xbox One, is a much more preferable set up for shooters, racers and long periods of gaming.
The centre section of the MOGA Pro houses the retractable/extendable 'arm' which also acts as the 'claw' housing for mobile phones. The 'arm' is able to open up with enough clearance to comfortably house even the 5.5" Samsung Galaxy Note 2, and demonstrates the forward thinking nature of the units designers in that mobile phones have begun to adopt a larger style in recent years, as opposed to the one-time fashion of making everything so miniature that even an Action Man would find the item rather bulky for their 'realistic grip hands'.
There is also a wide variety of modes for the player to take advantage of, not least the added MOGA Pro unique feature included as the manufacturer described HID, ( not to be confused with the gamer staple HUD ).
HID, or Human Interface Device to give it the official MOGA moniker, is not to be confused with some sort of Lawnmower Man styled VR machine, instead the Pro Controller's Human Interface Device basically boils down to a 'keyboard', of sorts, which allows users to then map even non-MOGA specific titles to any preferred format they see fit*
Although perhaps not as all-encompassing as the MOGA Pocket's 'IME' feature the MOGA Pro's Human Interface Device Mode still does, nevertheless, offer a viable and exceedingly practical alternative right out of the box.
*naturally this works only with games that permit button-mapping in the first instance
When testing the MOGA Pro Controller we decided to give the sexy 'black beauty' a real trial instead of merely throwing a Candy Crush Saga or Angry Birds game at it. The titles we used during our time with the MOGA Pro were Infinity Blade 2, Deus Ex: The Fall, Hitman GO!, World of Speed, X-Com Enemy Unknown and the multi-award winning pairing of Limbo and The Walking Dead. As you can clearly see there is something for everyone in the list of titles we went for, and all of them provided a challenge in their own inimitable way.
As anyone who has made the jump from console to tablet and/or mobile will know each of these games were originally AAA titles for the Xbox360 and PlayStation 3, and in that respect should give some kind of an idea as to the complexity of their content. However, it is worth noting that although their mobile counterparts may, in fact, come in the 'diluted' form, they are still fully fledged games capable of producing taut, tense and terrific moments of gaming pleasure.
Of course, not only do each of these former console titles bring an ample amount of entertainment, they also require a certain degree of skill and gaming nouse. Making this a far easier prospect, and a far more enjoyable one, is the MOGA Pro Controller.
Without having to either forfeit one hand entirely as you cradle your mobile device in order to see the screen, or balance the unit precariously on a cobbled together hotch-potch stand made up of books and DVD cases, the MOGA Pro proves its invaluable contribution to mobile gaming right from the word 'go' with its 'easel styled' tablet stand, as well as its fold away center-piece which is the extendable 'claw' that holds in place the mobile phone.
From here on in it is smooth sailing as the MOGA Pro delivers unsurpassed performance, of a standard hitherto only found on consoles. In fact, so far as to say that the MOGA Pro offers up such a positive experience that we have attempted to synch the Bluetooth device with the PlayStation 3 as we genuinely prefer the feel, features and layout of this peripheral over the stock Dualshock 3 version of the Ps3**.
( **we will keep you informed of the results in future updates )
Pinpoint precision and smooth flowing movement without a single instance of lag or 'dead zoning' is couple with ergonomic excellence and drift-free delights as the MOGA Pro made light work of every test we through at it. Stealth in Deus Ex was a breeze and easily manageable thanks to the lightest touches on the thumbsticks and triggers being recognized and responded too instantly.
Driving in World of Speed was an absolute joy thanks to the outstanding responsiveness of the controller and, as such, the game is what it is expected to be, an enjoyment, as opposed to turning into an ordeal thanks to shonky shenanigans by poor quality products.
When all is said and done the MOGA Pro is quite simply put the 'must have' peripheral for any serious mobile gamer, but it also has its perfect uses for even the most casual or younger gamer too.
The 'claw' arm also offers up a real alternative to those onboard screens in the rear headrests of cars for parents looking to entertain their children during long drives, or even for teens and adults looking for a way out of beating those Bank Holiday Travel Blues as they sit for hours in county long tailbacks and traffic jams.
Whether you are a hardcore gamer or just someone looking to while away an hour or so stuck behind a cement mixer as you try to reach Torquay during the May Day Weekend the MOGA Pro Controller is the only choice, and considering its wallet friendly price tag of a paltry £34.98 at eBuyer.com the only question you should be asking yourself this Festive Season is " How many should I buy? " The MOGA Pro Controller gets the Editors Choice Award for being the best mobile controller on the market right now. 9 out of 10

CONRAD ETAL REFERENCE PLANE CARD CONNECTOR SYSTEM 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Filed Nov. 4, 1964 Ame/Wm. 604x40, are utilized for the reference United States Patent ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A connector, for a printed circuit card which is removably positioned in a mounting structure. The printed circuit card includes a reference plane of conductive material that is electricallyconnected to an elongated bus bar by a plurality of pins. An elongated spring sheet of conductive material is fixed to the mounting structure and contacts the bus bar, when the card is inserted into the connector, to provide a reference potential. This invention relates to electrical connectors and particularly to an improved connector system for printed or etched circuit cards or boards useful in computers operating at relatively high clock rates. Conventional printed circuit cards include a reference or ground plane which is connected to bus bars or other sources of reference potential through deposited or etched strips or fingers at the end thereof and through selected contacts of a printed circuit connector structure in which the card is removably retained. Because circuit cards are desirably maintained as narrow in dimensions as possible, the number of connector contacts in a connector structure is limited. When a plurality of connector contacts or ground potential, the number of circuit elements that may be provided on a single card is substantially limited. Also, the connecting of the reference or ground potential through the deposited strips, through the connector contacts and through wires between the connector and a reference bus bar or other structure provides a substantially high inductance because of the relatively long length of conducting path. In digital computers, for example, the impedance to ground substantially affects the operation because many electronic circuits on each card may be rapidly switched on or off simultaneously in response to clock pulses. The inductance in the reference or ground path from the on the card, attenuates the AC nal components, circuit components (alternating current) sigespecially at very high frequencies, so as tot-substantially increase the rise time of pulses. Thus theclock rate is limited to undesirably low values. In somesystems utilizing cards, storage capacitors are provided between the DC (direct current) supply voltages and ground potential to supply a portion of the energy ,during the switching operations and to be recharged between switching times. Unless a low impedanceis pro- ;vided between the storage capacitorand ground to rapidly recharge the capacitor, the clock rate is substantially limited. Thus, in card systems either with or without the storage capacitors, the impedance to ground is highly critical for operation at high speeds because of the switching transients which are developed when switching to and from a plurality of DC supply levels. It is therefore an object of this invention to provide a simplified and improved arrangement for connecting a voltage level such as on the reference plane of a circuit card to a source of potential such as a source of reference potential. It'is another object of this invention to provide a reference plane connector for a system utilizing printed circuit cards having a reference plane or structure therein. It is still another object of this invention to provide an electrical connector system useful with a removable circuit card and which develops .a relatively small impedance. It is a further object of this invention to provide a mounting system for a removable printed circuit card that allows a maximum number of circuit elements to be utilized for a predetermined number of connector contacts. It is a still further object of this invention to provide for use with a printed circuit card which is removably inserted into a connector structure having a plurality of contact points, a ground plane connector also having a movable contact that is substantially independent of the connector structure. Briefly, the reference or ground plane connector system in accordance with the principles of the invention utilizes a printed or etched circuit card or board having a reference or ground plane therein which is formed from an etched sheet of conductive material. The endof the card is insertable into a connector structure which in turn is positioned on a mounting frame. In one arrangement in accordance with the principles of the invention, a bar of conductive material is positioned on or above the surface of the card and is connected to the ground plane of the card through a plurality of short conductive pins. An elongated spring structure which is attached to the mounting frame adjacent to the connector structure is suitably connected to a reference or ground bus bar structure. When the end of the card is inserted into the connector structure, the elongated spring structure contacts the bar to provide a low impedance connection thereat. The connecting arrangement provides a minimum of inductance in the path between the reference or ground plane and the reference bus bar and allows all contacts of the connector structure to be utilized for circuit leads other than the reference potential. In another arrangement in accordance with the principles of the invention, a bar and a spring structure are positioned on each side of the card to balance the forces thereon. For providing additional ground connections to sources external to the card, a plurality of ground plane connectors may be mounted on the spring structure. The novel features of this invention as well as the invention itself, both as to its organization and method of operation, will best be understood from the accompanying description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which like reference characters refer to like parts, and in which: FIG. 1 is a plan view of the connector and circuit card system in accordance with the principles of the invention; FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken at line 22 of FIG. 1; FIG. 3 is a plan view of a portion of the card of FIG. 1 for further explaining the arrangement of the ground plane; and FIG. 4 is a perspective view of a single spring structure and reference plane bar with a portion partially broken away for further clarity. Referring first to the plan view of FIG. 1, a printed circuit card 10 is shown removably mounted in position to a connector structure 12 which in turn is coupled to suitable frame channels 13 and 8 respectively including transmission line 11 and transmission lines 9 and 17 for supplying required DC voltages to circuit elements of the card. As shown in the section of FIG. 2 and the perspective drawing of FIG. 4, the mounting structure 12 includes a plate 14 having an elongated spring structure 16 connected thereto by soldering, for example. The spring structure 16 extends along a substantial portion of the width of the plate 14 and may have a plurality of separate extensions or fingers therealong such as an extension 15 shown in FIG. 4A conducting bar 18 which may be of copper coated with gold, for example, extends along a substantial portion of the width of the card and is connected to a ground plane 20 by a plurality of pins such as 22. A spacing bar 19 may be provided under the bar 18 or removed therefrom. The mounting structure 12 may include a plate 33 having an elongated spring structure 31 connected thereto in a manner similar to that card 10 has an advantage of balancing the forces applied to the card. However, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that in accordance with the principles of the invention that the plate, conducting bar and elongated spring structure on one side of the card 10 may be eliminated. The scope of the invention includes connectors with a conducting bar and elongated spring on one or on both sides of the card. The connector 12 which is a conventional type well known in the art, includes a plurality of connector openings or contact holes 24 and insertion pins 26 at one side and a plurality of connector openings or contact holes 28 and insertion pins 30 at the other side thereof. A plurality of wires such as 32 and 34 are included with each being connected to a specific connector .pin. Each connector opening such as 24 and 28 is suitably connected to respective spring structures such as 36 and 38 which in turn contact portions of the printed circuit of the card 10 such as contact strips or etched fingers 40 and 42. (FIG. 3) at the end thereof. Each of the con- .nector pins such as 26 or 30 thus supplies a specific source of potential or a signal, for example, to the card 10. The transmission line such as 11 has a bus bar 43 with connecting tabs such as 44 therealong for supplying a voltage which may be a DC voltage level to the leads such as 32 or 34. The ground or reference voltage level may be supplied by the transmission line 11 which is in electrical contact through a thin sheet of copper foil 49 with an angle 48 which in turn is mounted on the structural channel 13 and electrically connected to the plate 14. To provide a transmission line effect, a suitable dielectric sheet 47 is positioned between a copper sheet 46 and the copper sheet 49. The transmissionline arrangement allows a consistent spacing to be maintained between the sheets 46 and 49. The bar 43 which is in electrical connection with the sheet 46 conducts the majority of the current. The plate 14 has a connecting portion 59 at one end through which a suitable bolt 56 provides an electrical ground connection to the angle 48 and a structural connection to the frame such as the channel 13. A similar arrangement is provided at the transmission lines 9 and 17 with the ground path from both transmission lines being electrically connected by a bolt 60 to a connecting portion 61. Circular portions 54 and 62 of the connector 12 may be of plastic or Bakelite material as is well known in the art. It is to be noted that each of the transmission lines such as 9 and 17 includes DC bus bars 66 and 68, respectively, each supplying a different DC voltage level to be connected to wires such as 32 and 34. Also in accordance with the principles of the invention, a plurality of ground plane connector openings 70 of a connector structure 69 are electrically connected to the plate 14 for connection of pins such as 74 which are in turn connected to external ground wires such as 72. A connector structure (not shown) similar to the structure 69 may also be provided at the plate 33 in accordance with the invention. The ground wires such as 72 may be utilized for twisting a ground wire with other wires throughout the electrical equipment for eliminating the formation of transient magnetic fields, for example. Referring now principally to the printed circuit card 10, voltage reference planes 80, 82 and 84 may be provided, each carrying a predetermined reference potential as supplied through selected ones of the connecting strips 40 and 42 and the connecting springs 36 and 38. For example, a circuit element 88 may be connected to the ground plane 20, the plane 82 and to the plane respectively through pins 92, 94 and 96. Sheets of suitable material such as epoxy sheets 79, 81 and 83 are positioned respectively between the planes 80 and 82, between the planes 82 and 20 and between the planes 20 and 84. As is well known in the art, each plane such as 80, 82, 20 and 84 has an etched plane configuration so that each of the pins passes through three of the layers without connecting thereto and while being connected to one desired layer. The outer planes such as 84 have an etched configuration as shown in FIG. 3 to form the etched contact strips or fingers such as 40 and 42. As indicated by a line 102 which may represent the configuration of the reference plane 20, pins such as 22 are in contact therewith while not being in electrical contact with the other three planes. In some arrangements in accordance with the principles of the invention a storage capacitor 106 may be provided between each DC level and ground level for supplying energy during switching operations. For example, the capacitor 106 is connected to the ground plane 20 and to the plane 80 with respective pins 107 and 109 for supplying energy to the latter plane. Other storage capacitors (not shown) may either be included in the card 10 or on other cards throughout the system so that sufiicient energy is stored at each DC voltage level. To explain one method of forming the card 10 as is well known in the art, sheets 79 and 83 of epoxy glass which may be 4 mils in thickness, for example, and coated on both sides in a double clad arrangement with a conductive sheet such as 3-ounce copper, for example, may be utilized. The inner surfaces 20 and 8 2 of the completed card are first etched prior to lamination of the three glass sheets 79, 81 and '83. The epoxy glass sheet 81 does not have a conductive surface thereon and is utilized for separation of the planes 20 and 82. The etching of each copper surface may be performed by utilizing conventional techniques such as by forming patterns for each surface having configurations so that each of the pins will connect only to the proper surface. The patterns to be utilized with the outer surfaces have configurations to provide the proper connections such as shown in FIG. 3. With the pattern in position, the copper surface which is coated with a suitable photosensitive material, as is well known in the art, is then exposed to light until it is sufficiently sensitized. A resist material which may be a suitable combination of lacquer and asphalt is then applied to the copper surface and only the sensitized portion of the copper is coated. For example, a photo resist material KiPR of the Eastman Kodak Company may be utilized. A gold plating operation is then performed with the gold being deposited only on the portion not coated with the resist material. The next step in the operation is to wash off the resist material leaving the gold pattern on the copper sheet. The exposed copper is then etched or removed from the surface of the glass by an acid bath which may include ferric chloride or ammonium per sulphate, for example. As a result of this etching operation, only the gold pattern remains on the surface of the epoxy sheet. This etching operation is performed on each inner copper surface of the epoxy sheets 79 and 83. The three glass sheets 79 81 and 83 are then laminated with an epoxy base glue and with sufficient pressure and heat. The outer sheets 80 and 84 are then etched in a manner similar to that discussed above. Prior to any of the etching operations, all pin holes are drilled in the sheets utilizing a drill template, for example. Copper is then plated on theinside of the holes of 1 mil thickness, for example. Thus, in the portions of the layers in which a gold pattern is formed on the surface, a gold pattern is also formed in the holes. After etching and lamination is completed, all components such as 88 and the bar 18 are positioned with their connecting pins passing through the holes in the card 10. The bar 18 may be formed of gold plated copper and the pins such as 22 and 92 may be of a hard copper material. A suitable brazing powder may be applied to each of the pins before being inserted through the holes drilled in the card 10. Solder is then flowed completely over one side of the card such as over the surface 84 for connecting the pins to adjacent layers of gold. The solder adheres to the gold pattern on the surface, a portion of which is shown in FIG. 3, but is unable to adhere to the glass. In the drilled holes the solder adheres to the gold to provide connection with any layer or plane thereat. Thus each pin such as 22 is connected to the proper gold and copper layer such as the ground plane but not to the planes 80, 82 and 84. It is to be noted that in the above soldering operation the portions of the plane 84 that have not previously been removed by etching are covered with solder on the surface without afi'ecting the electrical characteristics of the card. The spacing bar 19 may be of a .032-inch thick Teflon to reduce the capacitance between the bar and the plane 84 and to provide electrical isolation therefrom. It is to be understood that the illustrated card arrangement is only one of a plurality of types that may be utilized and the connector principles of the invention are applicable to other types of printed or etched circuits or cards. The connector system of the invention thus provides a minimum impedance to signals at all frequencies flowing between the ground plane 20 and the reference ground potential source of the transmission lines 11, 9 and 17. As the inductive impedance increases as a function of frequency, the low impedance has a highly desirable effect during rapid circuit operation by allowing the relatively high frequency signals to pass therethrough with a minimum of attenuation. The large mass of the bar 18 and the continuous connection of the spring structure 16 which is curved in an ellipsoid or circular configuration to contact the bar 18, and of the plate 14 provides the loW impedance to ground. Sufiicient pins such as 22 are utilized between the bar 18 and the ground plane 20 to provide a low impedance path thereat. The ground connector structure 69 allows additional external ground connections to be provided. It is to be noted that although the connector is illustrated as a ground connector the principles of the invention are equally applicable to connecting other signal and other potential levels. Because of the ground bar 18, the connecting pin openings such as 24 and 28 are not required for ground connections. As a result, a maximum of density of circuit elements may be utilized in each card. Another advantage of the connector in accordance with the invention is that the card is readily removable without disconnecting any wires. The connector system of the invention increases the rise and fall times of pulses to allow a computer, for example, to operate at a relatively high clock rate. What is claimed is: 1.

writer Some ratepayers of the Canyon Lake Water Sup ply Corporation are upset by a 30 percent increase in their rates and are petitioning the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission TNRCC to hold hearings into the matter This is not a petition against the board of direc tors of the Canyon Lake Water Supply Corpora Sattler real estate owner Bob Carter said It is a petition to see if the rate increase is At its June meeting the Canyon Lake Water Sup ply Corporation CLWSC board of directors voted to increase its rates from for gallons of water to The fee for each additional gallons of water used was hiked from to The new rates took effect on Aug 1 After the rate increase was voted on CLWSC sent a notice to its customers on July 1 notifying them of the rate increase on Aug 1 The notice stated that the TNRCC will hold a public hearing on the rate increase if it receives petitions from 10 percent of the CLWSC ratepayers within 90 days of the notice This means the protesting ratepayers must submit all of their petitions to the TNRCC by Sept 30 Since there are between water users in the CLWSC petition representative Helm estimated that 300400 water users need to sign the petitions for them to be valid CLWSC Board of Directors Treasurer Larry Ratliff said the rate increase is justified because the corporation has to cover its debt service and startup costs The CLWSC was formed in March 1994 after it acquired 26 independent water systems in the Canyon Lake area so that it could pool the resources of those systems and provide better water service for their customers We need to have a rate system that will support our water RatlifF said Our rates are based on the water usage of our Ratliff said that the CLWSC is looking into buy ing nine more independent water systems which would expand the CLWSCs customer base to ratepayers The rate increase Ratliff said would help pay for capital improvements such as the pro posed water surface treatment plant near Canyon Lake Shores on the north side of the lake that would help improve the quality of water the customers are receiving CLWSC General Manager Dale Yates said the corporation had no choice but to raise water rates because of increasing operational costs He said recent water sampling testing guidelines from the TNRCC would cost the corporation a year In fiscal year 1994 we lost in operat ing costs because we had to get Yates said We had to go clean up the old water systems start up our administration and we had a lower customer Since March 1994 CLWSC has made mil lion in capital improvements Yates said In May ratepayers approved a bond issue in which the cor poration entered into a 25year note with the Texas Water Development Board The note gave the CLWSC million to finance new system acquisi tions Yates said Yates said that the board of directors could have increased rates higher and that their water rates are reasonable compared to other water corporations around the area According to our financial records we could be charging per Yates said But the board elected not to do The petition will force CLWSC to spend between to defend the rate increase Yates said a cost the ratepayers will have to pay for Yates said Carter said he can understand the startup costs for the corporation and that a small increase could have been justified but he believes the latest increase was way out of line Everyone knew there would be startup costs involved with the Carter said There was no question about it since they built the water treatment plant at Triple Peak plant But I believe a 30 percent increase is too Patrick Shaughnessy TNRCC spokesman said that his agency received the petition on Wednesday Shaughnessy said that once the petition is validated by the TNRCC they will try to encourage a settle ment between the corporation and the ratepayers on a rate favorable to both sides If that is not suc cessful a hearing examiner from the Office of Administrative Hearings would hold hearings into the matter The hearing examiner would hear from the TNRCC the CLWSC and the petitioners Based on those hearings the examiner would make his recommendation to the

I have a .net Windows Service that starts up and shuts down properly on Windows 7 and Windows 2003 Server.
However I have one Windows 2003 Server where I get a CannotUnloadAppDomainException when shutting down the server.
I know the server creates a .NET AppDomain for each port it listens on?
The fact that it works properly on one Windows 2003 server and not another leads me to believe it is a .NET Framework or Server configuration issue.
I am looking for suggestions on how to diagnose and fix this problem on the Windows 2003 Server where the exception is being logged.

Summoner Showcase #98 – Boots, Pots And Plush
The Accurate Source To Find Transcript To Summoner Showcase #98 – Boots, Pots And Plush."
[Summoner Showcase #98 – Boots, Pots And Plush]
[Nika] Source: LYBIO.net
Chargin' lasers and comics galore in this Summoner Showcase! Summoners near and far, hear my call!
I am Nika, and I come to you from the internet, a place where art and music and plush come together in a show for fan creations!
Behold, our first marvel, the Lady of Luminosity! HeadCrabeD draws the League's rainbow warrior in the throes of her Ultimate, and she looks rather pleased about that. Then again, if you could harness prismatic power and melt faces, wouldn't you feel smug too? Here's another self assured fellow in the League, he's even maxin' and relaxin' with a drink. Fiendle is a Showcase alumni for her amazing cosplay and delightful plushies, and this time she presents to us a Rumble in the Jungle! With no detail left unshown, Rumble has his clever grin and even holds onto his little tiny tropical drink, just like any squishy toy should. We know it's all about the accessories. What's the best way to accessorize your level 1 champion? RedEyedDragon will tell you. One word: swagger. Another word? Shrooms. Bbykitteh feels quite inspired by Teemo's accessories and made this pentaptych of mushroom designs. I think the main difference is that these are visible all the time, so you can fully appreciate how cute they are. Who do you think has the coolest looking spells or abilities in the game?
If you share your opinion on Facebook and you might create a discotheque in lane with our featured fan. As DanMovProductions video subtly asks us, "Is all that we see or seem, but a game within a game?" Sometimes it's hard not to feel like we're stuck in a great cosmic game- (Minions have spawned)
This changes everything.
In the world of gaming, there are a lot of unanswered questions, especially those brought up by Metal Morag. So one has to wonder, how does Nami float? She's a support character, so is she… ohhh she got carried. It all makes sense now. What about Janna? And Malzahar? How many invisible Teemos do we have propping up all of our airborne champions?
[Nika] Source: LYBIO.net
Finally, in terms of awesome art, you can barely fit more character into each character than we see from ScriptKittie. Yes, another Showcase veteran and fan artist extraordinaire, she never lets us down with this fearsome and alluring Akali, but let's not forget the fan-favorite, downright precious images of Hecarim and Volibear. That wraps up this show, but we need your creativity and artwork to keep this show going! Wait, if this is a game, then why don't I have a better skin? And what are my spells? Oh I hope it's heal. Stay positive, and we'll see you next episode!

Men around the world are exploring a new kind of sexual release: the prostate orgasm! These men report that prostate orgasms are the most intense, most satisfying and most pleasurable orgasms they've ever had. So, it is no wonder that the word is getting around and more and more men want to know the secrets of prostate orgasm.
Over seven years ago, we started our business with one goal in mind: teaching men about prostate massage and prostate orgasm. We produced what has become the best selling video on prostate massage in the world. Now, our dedication is to teaching men, women and couples about all kinds of sexual pleasure and intimacy. But we remain the leading experts on all things prostate, and men from around the world contact us every day to ask the same question:
How can I experience prostate orgasms?
The good news is any man can tap into the powerful pleasure of prostate orgasms. The prostate is part of the male sexual system, and exploring prostate stimulation opens up whole new worlds of pleasure that men are shocked to discover they've been living so long without. Our online course, Prostate Massage Mastery, is designed to guide you every step of the way as you and your lover tap into the pleasures of prostate stimulation.
We have worked with thousands of men as they explored their prostate for the first time. They all have the same reactions. Here are just a few of the responses from our guys when we ask them to describe their prostate orgasms:
- "Amazing extra sensations"
- "More of a total body experience that results in a more powerful orgasm"
- "Electric energy running through my body"
- "Toe curling orgasms"
- "Greatest pleasure I have ever experienced"
So why has this pleasure been a secret for so long? The primary reason is simple: homophobia. That's right. It is the fear and anxiety about gay sex that make so many men avoid this part of their body. Men are taught that enjoying anal pleasure means they are gay, so heterosexual men shut down all sensations and avoid this part of their sexuality.
What "being a man" in bed means has been limited to being the active partner, the one who penetrates, with a complete focus on the penis. Sadly, this history of homophobia and sexual repression has resulted in generations of men being terrified of unlocking all of the pleasure that awaits them with prostate stimulation. The anus and prostate are part of the male sexual system. If a guy is only using his penis for pleasure, he's only using a third of his equipment. Sure, you can get the job done, but you'll never experience the full range of pleasure that is truly available!
But this fear of prostate stimulation is quickly changing — straight men around the world are reclaiming their full sexual system. When men go online and rave about their prostate orgasms, sharing their experience of intense sensation and satisfying release, other men get curious. As more and more men enjoy prostate orgasms as part of their sex lives, and share these experiences without shame, it gives other men permission to explore fearlessly.
The prostate orgasm trend isn't going to go anywhere. We predict that in ten years it will be considered totally normal for guys to enjoy prostate orgasms as a regular part of their sex life. For now, we will joyfully guide men in unleashing the intense pleasures of prostate stimulation, and be the first to cheer them on as they discover this incredible part of their sexuality.
Are you ready to explore prostate orgasms? Come on over and let us be your guides so you can have a hot, satisfying and fulfilling experience with your lover!
Incredible pleasures await - what are you waiting for?

CharityWatch, a leading charity watchdog that issues letter grade (A+ to F) ratings of nonprofit groups, announces its top-rated list of charities currently involved in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Charities with asterisks next to their names have programs specifically relating to educating children. In light of the recent news about Greg Mortenson and Central Asia Institute, it is important to remember that there are many ethical and efficient charities working in the region. We encourage donors not to abandon the cause due to this scandal.
CharityWatch identifies the following charities that receive an A or B grade based on the portion of their budget going to program services and their fundraising efficiency. Contact the organizations below for information on specific relief operations now underway. Note: Links will open in a new window
Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation (A+)
Catholic Relief Services* (A)
ChildFund International* (A-)
Church World Service* (B+)
Direct Relief International (A-)
Doctors without Borders (A)
FINCA International - N.O. (B)

International Medical Corps (A)
International Rescue Committee* (A+)
Medical Teams International (A-)
Mennonite Central Committee (A-)
Mercy Corps* (A-)
Oxfam (A-)
Save the Children* (A+)
Top-rated charities perform favorably in relation to CharityWatch benchmarks: 1) A charity should spend at least 75% of its budget on program services. 2) Charities should spend no more than $25 to raise $100.
Contact your favorite charities to find out if they provide the specific types of aid that you would like to fund, e.g., emergency relief, health care, infrastructure development, education, etc.

ABSTRACT: New results are shown on carbon deposition and mixed layer formation on tungsten surfaces in TEXTOR test limiter experiments by varying surface conditions such as surface roughness (Ra: 10nm–1μm), temperature (300–900°C), and initial surface carbon concentration (0–60%). It is found that surface roughness significantly affected C deposition for both W and graphite substrates such as increase in the C deposition and extension of the C deposition area. Not only the surface roughness parameter Ra but also detailed surface morphology closely relate to C deposition on tungsten. Carbon deposition hardly occurred at least above ∼520°C on tungsten under TEXTOR edge plasma conditions. Carbon behavior on tungsten at 770–930°C depends on the incident carbon ion energy. Although tungsten and carbon mixing layers affected C deposition, their effect is less than the roughness effect.Journal of Nuclear Materials, v.390-391, 44-48 (2009). 01/2009;
