NZ Budget – time to tighten the belt
New Zealand is spending more than it earns, so we have to borrow to meet the difference. In recent times this has spiked, rising from a normal $300m per week to $800m, with a budget deficit forecast of a staggering $16.7 billion. We just can't keep going like this or we will be the next Ireland and more of our best and brightest will leave for Australia. The spending has to come down.
The 2011 Budget provides no new spending other than on health, education and justice, which together will receive $4 billion over the next four years. These increases will come from the $5.2 billion of cuts in other areas of Government spending. The Government is also looking to realise interests in the big four state owned energy companies and has pledged that the funds from these sales will go into infrastructure including broadband, rail and schools. Public servants and those businesses that support them have a tough time ahead as the quest begins to trim $980 million over three years from the state services sector. The overall aim is to return to a surplus in 2014-15, which feels a long way off.
Doing more with less
So it's time to knuckle down, do more with less and work hard to grow your businesses. The good news for small business owners is that the Budget offers no significant changes to deal with over the next twelve months. You will be asked to increase your Kiwisaver contribution from 2% to to 3%, which must be matched by your employees. On balance this is not that huge for employers.
With little economic growth to be generated by the Government, the onus is on us to find new markets and grow existing sales relationships. A $5.5 billion special fund to reconstruct earthquake ravaged Christchurch will provide some solid domestic growth in a similar way that property development in Queenstown saw a construction boom in past years.
Exporting will suffer
But there also needs to be more investment to support exporting and those businesses wanting to sell outside of NZ. This is our single biggest challenge and mission critical to our future prosperity. Nothing in the Budget indicates any sort of ramp up in assistance to exporting, which is something of a mistake.
There were a number of things the Government could have done to reduce deficit. These include raising income taxes or another GST (Goods and Services Tax) rise, which would have hurt business. Instead the Government has chosen to steady the ship, control costs, sell assets and leave it up to businesses to grow our economy.
It won't be easy, but as a businessman, I like the challenge.

Spatial quantizing a subwavelength slit to upgrade its optical properties |
Optics Express, Vol. 19, Issue 6, pp. 5319-5326 (2011)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (1048 KB)
We propose a spatial quantization method to discretize a single subwavelength metallic slit into identical unit chains and investigate its transmission properties. Finite-difference time-domain simulations suggest that the formation of multiple fundamental plasmon resonances and their mutual coupling processes play dominant roles in the quantized structure, which eventually alters the surface plasmon energy propagation into a hopping style. Through adjusting the groove geometrical parameters, the optical transmission can be further increased by as high as about 1000% or suppressed to zero when compared with a corresponding untreated slit. We expect these findings to have potential applications in subwavelength optics.

The views on this page are taken from the local and national media and do not necessarily reflect the views of Everton.
Phil Neville will take his first step on England's coaching ladder when he links up with the Under 21 squad next week.
The 35-year-old has accepted an invitation from head coach Stuart Pearce after being given the all-clear by Everton and will assist Brian Eastick for the crucial European Championship qualifier against Belgium.
Neville, who has been capped 59 times, will be involved in all training session and, with Pearce and his assistant Steve Wigley taking charge of the senior team, will also be on the bench alongside Eastick for the game at Middlesbrough's Riverside Stadium.
Neville has long held coaching ambitions and is working towards his UEFA 'A' licence, having already secured his 'B' licence.
England are top of Group Eight with 12 points and a win would almost certainly secure them a place in the Euro 2013 play-offs.
Phil Neville will help England's Under-21s cope with the absence of Stuart Pearce, below, in next week's European Championship qualifier against Belgium after getting special dispensation to join the Football Association's coaching staff on a one-off basis.
The Everton captain will be in the dugout for the game in Middlesbrough on Wednesday to help Brian Eastick prepare the side now that Pearce will be in charge of the senior team in the friendly international against Holland at Wembley.
Neville is using the opportunity to gain coaching experience, although the 35-year-old defender-cum-midfielder will mostly be involved in a watching capacity. Wilfried Zaha of Crystal Palace and Hull City's Cameron Stewart have won their first call-ups to the squad.
Everton have confirmed that Darron Gibson is facing up to a month on the sidelines because of a knee injury.
However, a club spokesman said the full extent of the problem has yet to be determined.
Gibson will be bitterly disappointed to miss the Republic of Ireland's friendly against the Czech Republic next week, as he wanted to impress Giovanni Trapattoni ahead of Euro 2012.
The pair have not always seen eye to eye, as Trapattoni was critical of Gibson for not leaving former club Manchester United sooner.
But his move to Everton last month has breathed new life into his career and the Czech friendly was a chance to shine ahead of the summer's finals.
DARRON GIBSON will face a race against time to be fit for Everton FC's bid to return to Wembley.
The 24-year-old EFC midfielder has been ruled out for up to four weeks with a knee injury, casting doubt on his availability for the FA Cup quarter-final showdown with Sunderland on either March 17 or 18.
Gibson, who signed from Manchester United in January, will already miss the Blues' next Premier League fixtures against QPR next Saturday and Tottenham Hotspur at Goodison on March 10.
The injury is a setback to David Moyes, who has started the Republic of Ireland international in every game since he signed in January.
Everton have been unbeaten since the former Old Trafford youth player's arrival, winning four out of the seven games he has appeared in.
Gibson will travel to London to have his knee assessed by specialists today, after limping off the field in the 82nd minute of last Saturday's 2-0 FA Cup fifth round win over Blackpool.
He is also certain to miss Ireland's Lansdowne Road friendly clash with the Czech Republic on Wednesday.
EVERTON captain Phil Neville is to take his first step in coaching by helping England Under-21s with their preparations for next week's Euro 2013 qualifier.
The Three Lions take on Belgium at Middlesbrough's Riverside Stadium on Wednesday night and Neville will be helping out Brian Eastick and John Peacock.
Eastick normally takes the Under-20s and Peacock the Under-17s but the reshuffle at the FA following the resignation of Fabio Capello will see the pair team up next week.
Neville will be taking his first steps towards a possible post-playing career in coaching by joining the set-up, following an invitation from the Football Association that he was delighted to accept.
England are currently top of Group 8 with four wins and a draw from their five fixtures so far. Belgium are second with four points less.

We will NOT share the email address you provide for this Alert Me feature with any third-party vendors. |
Often referred to as The Granddaddy of Them All, the Rose Bowl is one of College Football's most storied bowl games. Played in Pasadena, CA, the Rose Bowl traditionally brings together a team from the Pac-10 conference and a team from the Big Ten conference. Fans of these teams that are lucky enough to get tickets to the game are treated to the Rose Bowl Stadium's famous, sight line enhancing elliptical shape.
The history of the Rose Bowl game dates back to 1902, when the University of Stanford accepted a challenge to take on the University of Michigan Wolverines. It was the first post season college football game ever played. By the third quarter, Michigan was trouncing Stanford 49 to 0 causing the Stanford Cardinal to quit as the game had no implications except their own embarrassment. Officials decided that they did not want to risk this type of blow out again and see Rose Bowl ticket sales drop, so instead elected to have chariot races instead of a football game. 1916 saw the return of football and as attendance grew; one thing was obvious they needed a bigger venue.
The new stadium opened in 1923 and was given the name 'The Rose Bowl'. The name was given because it was designed to be like the 'Yale Bowl', the first modern football stadium. The Rose Bowl game has sold out tickets for 60 years, and does not seem to be slowing down. The Rose Bowl is now part of the Bowl Championship Series, and hosts the National Championship game on a rotating basis with the other bowl members of the BCS. The last championship game at the Rose Bowl saw Vince Young lead his Texas Longhorns over the USC Trojans in 2006.
Prior to the game, a tradition that dates back even further is the Tournament of Roses Parade. Floats designed using a variety of flowers and natural materials travel down the streets of Pasadena. The annual tradition is a spectacle watched from around the world.

Animal welfare officers called to appalling scenes at Cumbrian farm
Last updated at 09:21, Thursday, 08 November 2012
Horrified animal welfare officials found a couple sharing their filthy Cumbrian farmhouse with more than 70 dogs and 20 cats.
Police stumbled on scenes of appalling squalor when they visited the ramshackle farm near Aspatria which is the home of Robert Park, 54, and his 57-year-old wife Linda Faulder-Park.
Dozens of sheep, cattle, and pigs owned by the couple were in such poor condition they had to be destroyed.
But it was conditions inside the couple's home that most shocked vets and the team of RSPCA inspectors who were called in to investigate. They found that the farmhouse had been transformed into a foul-smelling kennel for dozens of dogs, with the walls, floors and furniture covered in dog excrement.
Living as an indoor "feral pack," the dogs – a mixture of collies and terriers – were left to fight over food, and 21 were in such poor condition that the RSPCA had to destroy them on welfare grounds.
Of the cats found in the house, two were already dead and a further 16 also had to be put to sleep.
The discovery of so many animals in the house and pigs, cattle, and sheep in dreadful conditions triggered a huge joint investigation by Cumbria Trading Standards and the RSPCA, which drafted in 10 inspectors from across the north west.
Describing the house, prosecution barrister Alison Whalley told district judge Gerald Chalk: "The conditions could only be described as appalling, and fit for neither man nor beast."
At Carlisle Magistrates' Court, the couple entered guilty pleas to animal welfare charges but the court accepted their crimes were the result of neglect, rather than a desire to cause suffering. They were given suspended 160 day jail sentences, banned from keeping any animals for life, and told to pay legal costs totalling £12,000 each.
Speaking after the case, RSPCA inspector Chris Towler told of the day in January this year when he and his fellow inspector Martyn Fletcher were called to the couple's dilapidated Bridge Farm , at Low Row, Scales, near Aspatria.
He said: "The police had visited the farm on an unrelated investigation.
"Nothing could have prepared us for what we found inside this farmhouse.
"It was one of the worst scenes I have come across in my 27 years with the RSPCA. It wasn't just the deprivation; it was the sheer number of domestic animals in there.
"There were 91 in total. As well as the 20 cats and 73 dogs, we found a duck, a cockerel, and a cockatiel.
"The conditions inside the house were appalling: Filthy and in a state of disrepair."
The dogs – which included five puppies – were living in groups in various rooms. Only one of the rooms in the house, said Mr Towler, was fit for human habitation.
The weaker of the dogs were unable to compete for the food and water the couple were putting out.
The couple were unaware two of their cats were lying dead in one room. Four dogs were found locked in a dark barn, its floor covered in what Mr Towler described as a sludge of faeces and mud.
One of the dogs had learned to clamber up a fence so that it could drink water from a lopsided gutter.
Most of the cats were being kept in what RSPCA officials said were shocking conditions in a makeshift pen, its floor soaking wet.
In court, the couple's barrister Keith Thomas explained that they had got into the habit of taking in stray dogs, some of which bred with others already in the house.
Linda Park suffered a disability and was unable to help her husband on the farm and because he worked elsewhere milking cows, had less time to care for the animals.
Mr Thomas conceded there were far too many animals for the couple to care for.
Mr Towler said he accepted that the Parks had not intentionally set out to cause suffering to their animals.
He added: "The whole situation was very sad in pure human terms.
"The house was generally filthy, and in my view not fit for habitation, for either this couple or their animals. They should have asked for help.
"Hopefully now they will get the help they need."
The couple pleaded guilty to 10 charges brought by the RSPCA – two of causing unnecessary suffering, and the remainder of failing to provide adequately for the needs of their animals.
They also admitted six animal welfare offences relating to their 35 sheep, 36 pigs, and 45 cattle, all of which had to be destroyed.
Judge Gerald Chalk described the couple's offences as "truly shocking," saying: "I'm of the view it was due to you closing your eyes to the obvious and you chose to ignore it but it was not deliberate." He added: "I don't think it safe for you to care for animals in the future."
Angela Jones, trading standards service manager with Cumbria County Council, said: "This has been a distressing case for all involved, not least Robert and Linda Park who were struggling to look after both themselves and their animals during the bitterly cold winter of 2011/12.
"It gives us no pleasure to see anyone lose the privilege to keep livestock or pets.
"But the severity of this sentence reinforces the clear duty on all owners to ensure the welfare of animals."
The couple must also observe a 9pm and 6am curfew for the next six weeks.
Robert Park will be allowed to continue working as a milker on a local farm.

Head of School Community Survey
The Quest Montessori School Head of School Search Committee highly values input and feedback from the entire community to help us establish goals and expectations for our next Head of School. We ask that you take the time to share your thoughts via a short, but important, survey.
Khalil Habib
Quest Board of Directors, Search Committee Chair
Message from the Board of Directors to the Quest Community Regarding the Head of School
Dear Members of the Quest Community,
We are writing to inform you that Paul Raymond has accepted a position in North Carolina as Head of School at Greensboro Montessori School beginning in July 2014 and that Cheryl Raymond has accepted a position at The Montessori School of Winston-Salem as Elementary Lead Guide/Level Chair. As a result, their family will be relocating to North Carolina following this academic year. The Board of Directors wishes to thank Paul and Cheryl for their commitment and years of service to Quest. We have been very fortunate to benefit from their talents and love of Quest since joining our community seven years ago.
Under Paul's leadership, the school has transitioned from serving grades first through eighth to a dynamic, authentic Montessori school for students ranging in age from toddlers through middle school. Paul has been unceasing in his commitment and efforts to build a new home for Quest; working with the Quest community, USDA, Town of Narragansett and many others to make the founding families' vision of a permanent home for Quest a reality. He was instrumental in overseeing the construction, ensuring that the project stayed on time and on budget, successfully opening our new building this academic year.
Throughout this time of transition for the school, which took us from the Canonicus campus to South Road to the new facility, Paul's financial planning and oversight ensured that the school operated on budget for every year of his tenure. Finally, under his guidance the school's enrollment has grown substantially, reaching 115 students this academic year. The school is exceptionally well positioned for the future under the stewardship of Paul's talented faculty, staff and administrative team.
Cheryl has served the school as lead teacher for both the Upper Elementary and Lower Elementary programs. Her high level of training and strong background along with her irrepressible enthusiasm and dedication has provided a rich, authentic Montessori experience to her students at Quest.
The Board of Directors is already actively engaged in planning our search to fill the Head of School position, while Paul will spearhead the effort to identify and hire a new Lower Elementary teacher.
We are very pleased to announce that Quest parent and Board member Khalil Habib will lead the Head of School Search Committee. Khalil has over 15 years of experience in higher education. He has successfully completed many searches for both small and large institutions. Board Chair, Elisa Cardone and Board Vice-Chair Ady Wheeler have also joined the Search Committee. The Board is committed to working in concert with the school community to find our next leader who will continue the strong legacy of excellence at Quest. As such, we will also form an Advisory Committee of interested constituents to secure the community's input with regards to the qualities of, and requirements for, our new Head of School. In the coming weeks and months you will receive more information about the search process.
We are in a strong position to embrace the opportunities that lie ahead and want to assure the community that throughout this process we will maintain our commitment to the goals and mission that define Quest Montessori School. We are confident that Quest will attract the highest-caliber candidates from around the country.
Finally, it has been a pleasure and honor to work with Paul and Cheryl as they have immeasurably strengthened our school and programs. Quest Montessori School would not be where it is today without their dedication and hard work. Please join us in wishing them well as their family begins this new chapter in their lives.

I have been using Firefox for over 5 years now and I love it. It's much better than IE in my opinion but, it does have its own set of quirks. I have had my bookmarks vanish 4 times in that 5 years. No reason for it that I can find. Just poof, they are gone.
So I now save a copy if my bookmarks every week or two to a file on my desk top. The last 3 times they have disappeared I was able to just import the file very easily and still had all my bookmarks.
If that is the worst thing that happens in Firefox, I will use it forever.
I also looked at the Foxmarks update but it seems to be geared toward use with multiple computers. We only have the one so I doubt it would do me much good. But I saved the site in my Bookmarks under the Firefox section!

Wow, another year has passed, and for the most part, the partying is over. I had a good time New Years Eve, with a small group of friends, we welcomed in the new year. In one part of the evening we did get into a discussion about sex (what else do 6 college aged guys talk about?), and with that came the topic of AIDS and HIV. I found it incredible, that a few of them had a very casual attitude toward the topic, and what I questioned was why?
Considering, that after 30 plus years of work being done to either slow down or eliminate the virus that leads to AIDS altogether. No doubt, much progress has been made, however in the last 15-16 years, new infections has held at about 50,000 per year, and it's estimated that 1.2 million people have HIV.
Now, I'm not a scientist, a lot of what I've learned and have had
called to my attention, has been thru here at Q/L and it's partnered sites. I also know 2 people in my city who have aids, and it's prevalent enough here to warrant it's own areas of treatment and live-in facility. I'm also aware of a drug called Truvada made by Gilead Sciences, and when used with condoms, is an affective approach for prevention, also known as PrEP
Now, back to my friends, as the conversation got deeper, neither of them new anyone with the virus, which I think, sadly, can make a difference in terms of awareness and urgency, plus their use of condoms was sketchy at best. I also am aware that the drug is pretty pricey and some guys don't want to have that kind of attention either, but condoms, come on guys condoms? It's the least you can do for yourself and for your sexual partner.
So, if you do or don't normally make New Years Resolutions and you're sexually active, make this one, practice safe sex!

The Bloodthirsters of Insensate Rage are Khorne's beast-slayers and monster killers. Apocalyptically ferocious, they care nothing for tactics, guile or cunning, launching themselves into battle with reckless abandon to bring their hell-forged axes to bear on a worthy foe.
A Bloodthirster of Insensate Rage hails from the sixth host of Khorne's bloody legions. Assigned the duty of hunting down powerful monsters, they carry vast axes designed to cleave through armour, muscle, sinew and bone in one fatal swing.
All skulls are valued by Khorne, but the bigger ones are undeniably more impressive. But big skulls require big axes to sever them from their spines. The axe wielded by a Bloodthirster of Insensate Rage is four times the height of a man, its head covered in razor-sharp daemonic teeth. It should be up to the task.
A Bloodthirster's body is as much a weapon as his axe. Spikes and horns jut out from his skin ready to impale unwary foes, while his armour is covered in razor-sharp edges, barbs and hooks.
A Bloodthirster's hooves are branded with the Mark of Khorne. In the wake of his destruction, the Blood God's rune will be stamped across the battlefield, hammered with titanic force into mud, flesh, armour and stone.
There are three different ways to build the Bloodthirster's head. The Bloodthirster of Insensate Rage has been built with a bestial, hound-like face and brutal, curved horns. Check back tomorrow to see one of the other variants.

The Big Bang and the Early Universe
From GHN
The Big Bang and the Early Universe
- Page created by SHH, 3 September 2008
- Contributors: SHH x2, Csommero x2, Nbrewer x8, Administrator1 x3
- Last modified by Administrator1, 22 July 2014
As the universe continued to expand over many billions of years, all components of this radiation (called cosmic background radiation) were stretched toward much longer wavelengths and lower energies. Today, most of that original radiation is concentrated in the microwave and millimeter wave portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. In 1965, Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson found this microwave background by accident while searching for sources of noise in satellite communications. (Although Penzias and Wilson were the first to find the cosmic background radiation, it had been predicted years earlier by Robert Dicke.) Their experimental discovery provided direct evidence for the Big Bang theory, establishing it as the scientifically accepted view of an evolving universe.
The framework for the Big Bang theory is provided by Einstein's work in general relativity that united space and time. In 1922, the Russian mathematician Alexander Friedman corrected an oversight in Einstein's calculations and demonstrated that an expanding universe would theoretically be possible. At about the same time, astronomer Edwin Hubble in California was making observations of distant galaxies that showed the universe to be expanding uniformly away from us in all directions. Russian-American physicist George Gamow and his colleagues predicted the existence of the cosmic background radiation in the 1940s, but that prediction languished in obscurity for many years until Penzias and Wilson made their momentous discovery.Recent observations by the Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) satellite and other instruments show that the intensity of radiation is not uniform from all directions in space. By studying data of this type, astronomers expect to learn how the large-scale structure of our present universe—galactic clusters separated by voids of empty space—could have evolved out of the original fluctuations created by the Big Bang.

Bristol City 1-2 Oxford Utd: Match Report
Bristol City 1-2 Oxford Utd: Match Report - view commentary, squad, and statistics of the game as it happened.
Oxford on a Hy
Substitute Danny Hylton hit an 87th-minute winner to give Oxford a shock 2-1 Capital One Cup victory over League One Bristol City at Ashton Gate.
City went in front with barely more than a minute on the clock when a Jay Emmanuel-Thomas shot was blocked into the path of Joe Bryan, who cut inside to curl a right-footed shot into the opposite top corner.
But striker Carlton Morris punished poor marking to volley a 55th-minute equaliser from a corner and Hylton coverted a Junior Brown cross with a low finish to give Oxford a deserved success.
The League Two side responded well to their early setback and thought they had levelled after 41 minutes when Brown headed in from a David Hunt cross, but a linesman had his flag up for offside.
City boss Steve Cotterill made eight changes from the side which won at Sheffield United on Saturday and his second-string players did not prove up to the task.
Emmanuel-Thomas shot narrowly wide and Bryan was denied by a goalline clearance from Jake Wright.

IBM to buy start-up Guardium for $225 million: report
- Tweet
- Share this
TEL AVIV (Reuters) - IBM (IBM.N), the world's biggest technology services company, is expected to announce this week the acquisition of database security start-up Guardium for $225 million, Israeli financial newspaper TheMarker reported.
The deal is due to close on Monday and will then be announced to the public, TheMarker said on Sunday.
Guardium started as an Israeli firm in 2002 but moved to Boston in 2003. It has about 60 employees and all will profit from the sale, TheMarker cited a source close to the company as saying.
The company had raised $21 million from venture capital funds such as Ascent Venture Partners, Israel's StageOne Ventures and Veritas, and Cisco Systems (CSCO.O), the paper said.
Guardium is a subsidiary of Israel's Log-On Software. Officials at Log-On declined to comment on the report.
Guardium's product enables companies to extend the use of corporate applications to customers, partners and providers while ensuring that the databases used by those applications are shielded.

i think im getting a bit too fidgety
staring silence onto walls again
looking through people,
through crowds
ignoring flickers of recognition like goldfish picking at flakes
from heaven,
or my fingertips
im walking with an aim of nothing
i shudder at the words im supposed to be saying
like its supposed to supposed to
and i could eat my apathy with ribbons
splattering sugar on the cement
[i didnt buy them]
i collect--much too many a thing
i collect people
in my head
short films of them
it doesnt matter that reality lies to me with
black and white shades of grey turning everything into a big mess of purple
when i like you
black when i like you
black when i dont
and everything is purple anyhow
i need no glasses to tell you i dont see the same colours as you
still frames
but i know you
and i know you dont know me
i never knew you
im suffering from high doses of pleasantry
the easiness between us, is only me playing the game the way my mother taught me
with a smile and much bitterness
i could be edging out from under you
with every wayward thought
and placid as my holdings; eyelash gates to my delirium:
i never see you.
tense is only a state of mind.
calm down.
i wouldnt hit you, even if you asked so serenely
like daffodils.
like milk
through your nostrils
i think im getting a bit too fidgety again,
hiding behind dark strands and dark shades, traipsing along shadows in alleyways that stink of shit and new york-
at least, what i think every dirty big city would smell like
i could conclude solitude.
but i get too much, too little of
that it would make such a slight difference to anything, everything
like this
i suppose
dents, little dents
i can still taste vanilla over the dry stretch of yawn in my throat
im still feeling the hot kisses of ice cubes bobbing as driftwood in my dissatisfaction with breathing
they look at her like buttercups
like milk maids all in a row
waiting to get the first fresh cream
bursting knuckles, forcing up bones white through skin
i hear many a thing in monotone
as if im living these still frames like a projection
or a book with little pictures in the corner, movement only emerging
as you
in an illusion of movement.
watching my feet, my legs as i walk.
gives an illusion of movement.
passing reflection; refractions of me
as i hasten descent into dirty litten side streets
fearing voices more than the still squeak-scratching of the night creatures
i see things, reminding me to walk
and to keep walking
not to run
because the faster you try to get somewhere
the more you will end up back home
and home is where the unheard is
ricocheting fragments of your skull
in your head places
theorising the best means of escape
with ropes and a map of the sewage system
i ache for the heavy burden of a sleeping hand
i will dapple my depreciation with a pen stroke with a brush stroke with a palm stroke
with a croak of strained notes
that i dont hear when im walking
running on the inside
running on much more than empty
much less than nothing
running and i cant catch up with myself
my stomach is nowhere near the end of this pit i feed with memory
everyday, proffering scraps of myself
and others
still frames
of every other time
i let
i ache for disintegration
powdering constance into a beaked mouth of closed eyes and shuddering
for the hunger inherent
for the disease no one ever speaks of
in a complacent way

14 Sort by: Date | HelpfulI've been a customer at Buddy's for approximately ten years and my experience has been amazing. They have been extremely helpful. They have never recommended anything to do that was unnecessary. They have always told me, upfront, what needed to be done. And they are extremely fair. They are wonderful people and I would recommend them to anyone. They are absolutely amazing. Their price is competitive and fair and in a lot of cases the prices are just great. They have been extremely helpful to me. I live about 45 miles from that shop. I used to live about a half of a mile away, but now even 45 miles away, I still go back there to have work done on my car. That is how satisfied I am with them. As I said they are extremely helpful, when I lived at my old house, if something was wrong with my car they would come pick me up so that I wouldn't have to walk to the shop. They just go out of their way to be wonderful and helpful. I am just ecstatic and pleased with them.

Remote Toroidal Transformer !
If building a F4 or F5 is it possible to construct the amplifier with all the components installed in the enclosure except the transformer ? What I would like to do by removing the transformer would allow me to use a smaller enclosure. The CRC and rectifier section would remain in the amplifier chassis.

A better choice would be to keep the first two C of CRC near the transformer.
So, not carrying over the rectifier spikes. Plus the ombilic will be part of R in CRC. |

Hi, I'm planning on something similar but for a F5T V3.
In my case, I'm planning to have the entire power supply in a separate case, since I don't want the caps to be unnecessarily heated up by the class A amp. However, I do realize that i probably have to add a cap or two in the amp case. Is the recommended cap size after such a configuration about 10% of the amount of capacitance in the main power supply? |

I have used this approach before with amplifiers and PS built into small bookshelf loudspeakers. This left no room for the transformer, so I bought some 3 conductor power cable, terminated it with Neutrik PowerCon connectors, and located the transformer in a small enclosure several meters away. This worked pretty well and I can easily build another speaker and use the same transformer again just by disconnecting the PowerCon cable and plugging it into the new speaker. -Charlie |

There should be some amount of capacitance near the output stage...
Also, having an umbilical cord carrying AC is best avoided, but you could have transformer, rectifiers, and first cap bank in separate box? Last edited by Andersonix; 12th November 2012 at 06:59 PM. |

Singapore banks stronger than HK's despite consumer debt surge
Published on Mar 25, 2014 10:10 AM
Singapore banks are in better shape than their Hong Kong counterparts, even though consumer debt has surged in both cities, a new report has found.
The report, by Barclays Capital, said Singapore banks are in a stronger position as they have more defensive asset qualities than Hong Kong banks.
Consumer debt has grown rapidly in the wake of the global financial crisis, fuelled by plentiful cheap credit in a low-interest rate environment. This has sparked regulatory concern.
But the report, issued yesterday, also acknowledged that the pace of growth of Singapore's household debt to total economic output has stabilised since the Total Debt Servicing Ratio framework was rolled out last June.

Advocates of a state tax overhaul are doing their level best to distract attention from the central truth that the plan would raise taxes on North Carolinians earning less than $51,000 a year and hand a significant tax cut to the top 20 percent.
The authors of a Civitas Institute report—which advocates abolishing the state personal income tax and replacing most of the lost revenue with a higher sales tax on a wider variety of goods and services—acknowledge that low- and middle-income households would pay more since they spend more of their income on products subject to sales taxes than wealthier households do. But they claim that this concern is overblown. They use several arguments to justify the tax shift, none of which stand up to scrutiny.
One of their central assertions is that some low-income people get government benefits, which apparently means that people living in poverty can afford to pay for a tax cut for the rich. We doubt most people in North Carolina agree. The proponents of a higher sales tax greatly exaggerate the government benefits most poor people in North Carolina actually receive. To bolster their case, they cite services available to families in Pennsylvania and appear to assume that every household eligible gets all of the services. But this is simply not the case in North Carolina. The vast majority of poor people do not receive all the services they are eligible for, in part because there are not enough funds to allow that.

Most of the rules are simple to follow and they could save you a trip to the doctor.
"Hand washing before you prepare your foods, hand washing while you're preparing your foods and serving foods and definitely while you're cooking and storing foods afterwards, that's one of the number one things you can do at home or anywhere else," said Corey Kirkland with the Houston County Health Department.
If you plan on grilling any meat the health department has a few recommendations. Raw meat can quickly attract bacteria and if not cooked correctly you may leave your summer barbeque not feeling so hot.
"Definitely keep your raw and cooked meats separate," said Kirkland. "Keep raw foods, their juices especially if you're marinating something on a raw food make sure it's not dripping into something else that won't be heated or that's ready to eat food."
Kirkland also suggests using a thermometer when cooking. Bacteria thrive in temperatures ranging from 41 degrees Fahrenheit to 165.
After you're done eating you'll want to make sure you put the food away as quickly as you can.
"Keep foods covered while they're in your refrigerator, as well too," said Kirkland. "I would put leftovers in the refrigerator within a couple hours after you eat and after you serve"
Kirkland says a good rule of thumb is two hours. If you're food has been sitting outside longer then that you should throw it away.
Around 48 million people get sick each year with a food borne illness.

Obscene gestures and other habits I'll be changing
Pull out of our driveway and go one direction — all is groovy. Pull out of the driveway and go the other and you're about 30 yards away from the most awful intersection in our town: Three northbound lanes, with a hideous little triangle purgatory area for those who need to cross all that traffic […]

Taking kids to adult movies and other things I hate
Not a movie for kids. My friend Bobby told me this story. During a recent Saturday afternoon trip to the megaplex, he took a bathroom break and found a man in the hallway trying to cajole two kids, girls who appeared to be around four and seven, back into the theater, but the little one […]

Being the shortest kid in the class and other things she should learn to live with
The Nut complained recently about being called "not tall" by another classmate. We've reminded her that she is in fact a big girl and encouraged her to walk away from friends who she feels are not speaking nicely to her. But then we noticed this. Maybe the "not tall" comment wasn't meant to be an […]

Monkey see, monkey please don't do and other acquired habits
Peanut's older and very patient pal Taylin has a genuine food allergy and then some food quirks. The latter includes dredging her pizza through a glob of ketchup. Now maybe this bothers only me. I hate condiments. Not salt. I love salt. I put salt on everything I don't drink and some things I do […]

The MomHouston meet-up and other oppportunities for me to buy you a margarita
Reasons you will want to come to the MomHouston meet-up: 1. You want to meet the other bloggers/commenters/lurkers in person. 2. You like free booze. Your first margarita is on us. Or the first drink of any sort. But it's at a Mexican restaurant. Why wouldn't you have a margarita? 3. You like free nachos. […]

Books and other missed deadlines
Like our dear pal MeMo wrote about recently, we came of age in a pre-big box bookstore era. I know I was encouraged to go to the library. It put an emphasis on an individual text, rather than having books be like a mess of trophies on a shelf. In three short years Peanut has […]

Dentists and other neglected appointments
The Nut went to the dentist this week. We thought three-and-a-half seemed like a reasonable age for a first appointment, until we got to the office and read the literature that said you were supposed to take your kid at 18 months. So we were late. But she didn't have any cavities, and she behaved […]
