How To Know What That Job Pays
By Susan Adams
One of the most useful tools when entering a salary negotiation: Knowing how much your prospective employer pays others at the company who hold your would-be title. It's also helpful to have a sense of what you are worth in the labor market. In other words, what would competitors of your would-be employer pay someone with your level of training, skill and experience? All of this information is increasingly easy to find. Besides the old-fashioned method of schmoozing with folks who work in your chosen field, there is a treasure trove of salary information online, much of it highly specific and lots of it free of charge. In Pictures: How To Know What That Job Pays The easiest, fastest way to get a salary snapshot: Google. Just type in a job title, location, company name and the word "salary" or "compensation," and you'll get a quick hit of information. A lot of that data will likely come from the job aggregation websites Indeed.com and Simplyhired.com, both of which have a salary link at the bottom of their home pages. These sites collect their information from job listings. Consider this information a ballpark estimate. It isn't specific to you, but it can help give you a sense of the salary range for the position and company in the city where you're interviewing. Caveat: The results are scattershot on these sites, but worth spending a minute searching. Another source for ballpark estimates: the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics' table of Occupational Employment Statistics, which offers a wealth of salary information drawn from its employer surveys. This data is best used to get a broad sense of various fields and what they pay in different regions of the country, rather than a laser view of a job at a particular company. For instance, the mean annual wage for a computer and information systems manager across the nation is $126,000, In the metropolitan New York City area, the job pays a mean of $157,000, while in Chicago it pays $115,000, and in Silicon Valley, $175,000. This data can be useful if you are considering a career change and/or a move, and wondering about compensation prospects in a particular field and region. But the BLS offers no information about jobs inside companies, and its job titles are broad, so it won't help you much in salary negotiations. For quick, specific information about companies, a Google search will likely show results from Glassdoor.com. This four-year-old site, based in Sausalito, Calif., bills itself as the Trip Advisor of career sources. It offers snapshots of information gratis. If users want to delve more deeply, they must fill out a questionnaire about a recent or current job, including compensation. Glassdoor does no independent checking of the data its users provide. It's easy to navigate and costs nothing besides time. Glassdoor claims to have salary information for 160,000 companies based on 2.5 million user reports. It also offers user-written reviews of what it's like to work at companies and information about what to expect at a job interview. For more sophisticated compensation information, there are two older sites. Salary.com, the oldest source besides the federal government, was founded in 1999. The Waltham, Mass.-based site gets its data from vendors who survey companies' human resources staff, and purports to have gleaned data from more than 5,000 employers. It offers a free "salary wizard" that can be used in several ways. You can get a quick snapshot of the salary for a given job title in your city by putting in minimal data. Or you can answer a questionnaire with specifics like your level of education and your years of experience, and receive a more focused result. For $30-$80, you can answer an extensive questionnaire and receive a personal report that takes into account details like advanced degrees and numbers of employees you will be expected to supervise at your new job. The personal report offers information about your market value, what kinds of benefits and bonuses you should be offered, and sample arguments you can make in a salary negotiation. Payscale.com offers similar information to Salary.com, but there is more data available free of charge. Based in Seattle and founded in 2002, like Glassdoor, it offers access to its database in exchange for information from users. Payscale has a leg up on Glassdoor because of the depth of its information, some 35 million user-submitted profiles and data on more than 4 million employers, according to Katie Bardaro, the site's lead economist. You can search salary in two ways on Payscale. In its "career research" section (you click through a tab at the top of the screen), you can put a company's name in the search field and instantly get broad salary data, though the ranges it offers are quite broad. I tried searching for "editor" at Thomson Reuters, and found a stretch from $27,000-$90,000. Like Salary.com, it's best to use Payscale to get a sense of your value in the labor market. For this, you fill out a detailed questionnaire similar to Salary.com's, with information like your years of experience, your current pay, your company's annual revenues, and where you earned your academic degree. The site crunches this data and tells you what someone of your age and experience should expect to earn in your city. Economist Bardaro argues that this can be more useful than learning about a salary for someone with your would-be job title at the company where you're interviewing. For instance, she explains, in Seattle, if you were to negotiate, say, for a software engineer job at a small company, that firm would be competing with Amazon, a major employer there. Bardaro argues that it's most useful for a job candidate to know what their value is in their marketplace, according to the specifics of their background. I'm ambivalent about Bardaro's argument, and the usefulness of the kind of information Payscale and Salary.com provide. While I can see the usefulness of gleaning your theoretical labor market value, a salary negotiation comes down to the realities of what a specific company is willing to pay. At least in my field, salaries vary widely depending on the company where you work. Then of course you need to weigh compensation against all sorts of other competing and often less tangible factors, like office environment, reputation, opportunities for advancement and how well you think you would fit with the people who would make up your new team. I'm convinced that it makes sense to use the free online tools at Glassdoor, Salary.com and Payscale, but I don't think I'd spring for Salary.com's paid $80 report. Whatever online resources you decide to tap, you should research compensation the old-fashioned way, by talking to people in your line of work, say Robert Hellmann and Anita Attridge, two New York coaches with the Five O'Clock Club, a career coaching organization. A good line, Attridge suggests: "What would you say is the salary range for someone coming into that position?" That way you're not asking someone to reveal what she makes. When interviewing, be careful how you use salary information. Both Hellmann and Attridge agree that you should postpone any salary negotiation until after you've been offered a job. At that point, if you're offered too little, don't hesitate to speak up, they advise. "Say, â¿¿I'm really excited about this position, but I'm disappointed about the salary,'" Attridge advises. "Ask what can be done, as far as the salary is concerned." In Pictures: How To Know What That Job Pays

Hennepin County Medical Center was in lockdown Saturday, after a person reportedly claimed to have a gun, according to Minneapolis police.
Officers were called to the hospital in downtown Minneapolis around 11 a.m. after a visitor threatened another visitor and said they had a gun, police spokesman John Elder said.
A gun was never displayed, Elder said.
Police secured the exterior and interior of the hospital while they looked for a person with a gun. The search turned up nothing, Elder said.
The hospital reopened around 1:30 p.m.
MPD says this was a successful use of the coordination between the hospital and police during an emergency response plan.

Chopstick masters are capable of amazing acts of dexterity, such as juggling rice and building a sand castle one grain at a time. Achieve nimble nourishment with this Groupon.
Choose Between Two Options
- $20 for $40 worth of Asian food and drinks, valid Sunday–Thursday
- $20 for $40 worth of Asian food and drinks, valid Friday and Saturday
The menu spans multiple traditions of Asian cuisine. Hot entrees include stir-fried beef chow fun with Cantonese-style wide rice noodles ($12.95) as well as sriracha fried rice with a choice of vegetables, chicken, or beef ($10.95). Sushi and sashimi entrees range from a combination of tuna, salmon, and california rolls ($13.95) to broiled eel atop seasoned rice ($21.95). This Groupon is not valid toward à la carte sushi and sashimi selections.
Kiku Bistro
Formerly the Mt. Fuji restaurant, the robust menu hasn't changed at Kiku Bistro, which predominantly features Japanese staples with splashes of Thai and French influences. At the Uptown location, chefs occasionally leave the kitchen and man the hibachi grills that adorn select tabletops. There, they entertain hungry audiences by searing entrees of chicken, sea scallops, and filet mignon while correctly naming each of 6,852 islands in the Japanese archipelago.
Meals of sashimi and maki offers offer an equally artistic flair but fewer open flames. Sushi chefs pack a crunch into their special rolls by incorporating such ingredients as lobster tempura and deep-fried soft-shell crab, accenting their creations with signature sauces.
80% of 732 customers recommend
"Great food and good service along with good happy hour prices when you're not using a groupon!"
"Quiet, beautiful ambiance, excellent service!"

Customer Reviews
January 2014
We loved the sheep farm tour. The owner was very informative and interesting to watch the dog work the sheep heard. Lunch was provided at the farm and great conversation with the owner. Not enough time at Christchurch since we had to leave the group to go to the farm. Would have liked more time there.
November 2013
We stopped in Akaroa for one day while cruising New Zealand. The tour took us from Akaroa to Christchurch. The guide wasn't too knowledgable and seemed a bit disorganized. We stopped at the Botanical Gardens, but we were only given about 15 minutes to see it. A second tour guide met a small group of us in Christchurch. She was much better than the first guide. She drove us through Christchurch and showed us the destruction associated with the earthquake a few years ago. It was very interesting. The highlight of the tour was the farm tour. It was a very small operation, but the farmer couldn

Your letters: Dayton to blame for budget impasse
I have said numerous times how helpful it would be for Gov. Dayton to become active in the budget-setting process instead of sitting back and "negotiating" through the media.
A couple of announcements the governor made late last week left folks on both sides of the aisle flabbergasted. Not only is the governor refusing to allow his commissioners to sit down with legislative leaders to help work out a budget, but he also wants to involve a mediator in the process.

Facebook zaman tüneli kapak fotorafları genelde sade seçiliyordu bir zaman öncesine kadar fakat kullanıcılar, son dönem duvardan paylaştıkları güzel sözler ve düşüncelerini aynı zamanda ifade eden bir takım görsel desteklerle özlü sözleri bir arada bulundurmayı daha çok tercih ediyorlar artık.

Titans are Terrific! |
The Teen Titans weren't the first group of superheroes but they were the youngest and consisted of the sidekicks to the older, more established heroes. Originally stylized as a Junior Justice League and each sidekick in many ways were simply a carbon copy of their mentor but they evolved and grew into their own distinct voice. Happily, this cartoon series captures that voice by focusing on a eclectic cast of characters of Cyborg, Beast Boy, Raven, Starfire, and Robin; aping the glory days of Marv Wolfman and George Perez.
With that broad range of characters of a high-tech hero, a mystic, an alien, a street vigilante, and the adopted child of a family of superheroes; you have a very broad range of stories that you can get into and the guys behind this series weren't afraid to tap into all of those ideas and the storylines were truly great, involving, and distinct. The five main characters were all great as well; each of them has their own distinct personality and often times, the comedy comes from the interactions between the group. Animation wise, the Titans were a very unique and distinctively anime-inspired which I thought was a very nice change in direction from the Bruce Timm-style of all of the men having huge upper bodies with teeny slender legs.
What I think hurt the Titans was that they were limited to the various villains and foes of the Titans had faced; they never battled say the Joker from Batman or ran into one of Lex Luthor's schemes or Gorilla Grodd's nefarious plots.
Nevertheless they did do something right with their version of Deathstroke the Terminator as Slade. He was a great horrific villain but in some ways, I found him a bit lacking as he was never really given an origin, a back story, or an explanation as to why he was a villain or constantly tormenting the Titans after Robin rejected being his apprentice. I also thought that his name to be lacking as well. I mean Slade is a perfectly decent name but it just can't quite equal Deathstroke or the Terminator.
I will give them credit that they revamped and updated dozen of old, musty villains from Trident to Mad Mod but the Titans were left in their own distinct and limited corner of the DC-verse. As the later seasons rolled around, they seemed to be getting goofier and goofier in terms of villains and certain joke episodes were getting more tiresome than a nice change—the characters of the Ding Dong Daddy and Control Freak being some of the dumber ones.
They never even encountered Batman for that matter, which I thought was a disappointment as an episode with him and Robin would have been a very compelling one I think. Even the creators realized that and tried to broaden their base by reintroducing the Doom Patrol, but I have to admit that I wasn't that disappointed when they retired the franchise rather than letting them linger with horrible storylines.
The voice actors were brilliant in their roles and I thought that Scott Menville (Robin) and Tara Strong (Raven) were truly outstanding. Greg Cipes (Beast Boy) was one of the more funny voices that I can ever remember hearing; having a bit of high-pitched with a bit of lisp that made him very distinctive. But one of the truly awesome voice actors didn't even belong to a regular cast member but Ron Perlman (Slade). Perlman had a great vocal range; coming off as low, melodious and almost seductive voice when talking and doing his "I'm so smart speeches" and then suddenly shifting to an animalistic growling and screaming during his fighting sequences.
Nevertheless, the Teen Titans were a terrific show with a broad range of stories from the fantastical, to the mystical, and to dark criminal noir. It was a very enjoyable show and a very different take on superhero cartoons that I think both children and adults would enjoy.
RATING: 3 and 1/2 STARS.

Just finished it, it may have been shorter than I expected but damn did I love it. it definitely healed the bitterness I've been feeling towards the ending these past few months and the scene with Shepard and Kaidan finally saying to each other "I love you" ...wow, I was in tears. I even liked talking to the catalyst and finding out more about his motivations. Major props to them for listening to the fans and giving us this new content.
My one gripe with it is that they still left the Shepard breath scene as a cliffhanger. I guess they wanted the player to imagine what happens to him and while I'm ok with doing that I'd rather start imagining the future after seeing Shepard found/rescued by the crew or whoever. I think you can pull off a happy moment and still have it feel like things were sacrificed in order to get there (this keeps it from being cheesy), like with the curing of the genophage for instance when the Krogan had new hope but we lost Mordin. The Mass effect journey was full of loss so I feel they could have cut Shepard a break and it still would have had the bittersweet element they were trying to push.
Overall though it changed the feeling of the endings from that of despair to hope. It really saved the series for me and I'm so happy about that.

With production on Marvel Studios' first Netflix series Daredevil set to get underway this July, it's only a matter of time before we find out which actor will succeed Ben Affleck as the Man Without Fear, as well as which supporting characters will be making their Marvel Cinematic Universe debut when the road to The Defenders gets underway.
Speaking to IGN, Marvel chief Kevin Feige has confirmed that both Wilson Fisk – a.k.a. The Kingpin – and Elektra Natchios are available to Marvel Studios, should they choose to include the characters in the miniseries: "Kingpin we either have or somehow share," said Feige. "Namor I think is a little complicated, the way some of them are. Elektra I think we have. I think that was part of Daredevil, and that's clean and simple."
As it happens, the rights to Namor the Sub-Mariner remain with Universal Pictures, while producer Avi Arad has previously suggested that Kingpin is available for Sony to use as part of its Amazing Spider-Man franchise, so that appears to be a similar situation to Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch, who are shared between Marvel Studios and Fox.
Both Kingpin and Elektra appeared in Fox's 2003 Daredevil movie, played by Michael Clarke Duncan and Jennifer Garner respectively, while Garner also headlined the 2005 spin-off Elektra.

Enforcement of Red Flags Rule Begins
January 26, 2011
Beginning January 1, 2011, creditors with covered accounts need to be in compliance with the Federal Trade Commission's identity theft regulations, widely known as the Red Flags rule. Although the rule, requiring entities to have certain policies and practices in place, has been in effect for more than two years, repeated enforcement delays had been issued in the meantime while Congress considered changes to which entities would be covered.
In December, Congress finally acted, passing the Red Flag Program Clarification Act of 2010 (PL111-39). The changes are primarily designed to exempt small businesses, such as doctors' offices, accountants, and small stores, from the requirements. Most colleges and universities are unlikely to be affected by the modification of the definition of a creditor. (Note that neither the law nor the FTC regulations specify particular types of covered entities; the determination is made based on the activities in which an entity engages as part of its business.)
Under the new definition, an entity is a creditor if it regularly and in the ordinary course of business does one or more of the following:
1) obtains or uses consumer reports, directly or indirectly, in connection with a credit transaction;
2) furnishes information to consumer reporting agencies in connection with a credit transaction; or
3) advances funds to or on behalf of a person, based on an obligation of the person to repay the funds or repayable from specific property pledged by or on behalf of the person.
While higher education institutions don't normally use consumer credit reports, most do report to consumer credit agencies and advance funds (through tuition payment plans and federal and institutional loans) to help students cover their bills.
The FTC has not yet issued any guidance based on the new legislation. Institutions with questions about whether they are still covered by the rules should consult their legal counsel.

One comics creator I follow, Lars Brown, mentioned somewhere that he had submitted a comic entry to a global Shounen Jump contest, though he half-jokingly added he had about a 0% chance of winning. Apparently this was a contest where anyone from around the world could enter, as 1400 entries were screened and the editors from Jump's office in USA, China, Japan or Taiwan narrowed the winners down to 6. Keep your eyes peeled, one of these might be popping up in a print edition soon.
Here's a link to the English page with the 6 finalists. You can also read them in the original Japanese or Chinese, and then vote on your favorite. Here were the six that I saw:
- Golden Rabbit by Nick Kanoza: A boy tries to chase down a leprecaun/rabbit to get his gold and cure his friend's crippling condition.
- Sweat Man by Fei Zi Xuan: A schoolboy who has the superpower of...explosive sweat.

Cherry pie is a pie baked with a cherry filling. Traditionally, cherry pie is made with tart rather than sweet cherries as it is easier to control how sweet the pie eventually becomes and also eventually translates to a sharper taste. Morello cherries are one of the most common kinds of cherry used, but others, like the native black cherry, are also occasionally utilized.
Although generally eaten in North America, cherry pie is also known in other parts of the world (e.g. Donauwelle in Germany and Austria). It is a very popular treat in North America and prior to the advent of refrigeration it was most commonly eaten in midsummer (harvest of cherries in North America coincides with Canada Day on July 1 and America's Independence Day on July 4.) Cherry pie is also often eaten with whipped cream or ice cream. A common preparation tradition in the United States is to decorate the crust with ornate pastry patterns.
Cherry pie as a dish enjoys a strong history in the United States and is often regarded as a "great American dish". A cherry pie figures prominently in Billy Boy, a nursery rhyme. The popular song by Warrant named "Cherry Pie", from their album of the same name is regarded as one of the group's best songs. Three decades prior, Marvin & Johnny and Skip & Flip had a hit song by the same name but otherwise unrelated. In a Pepsi advert of the early 2000s, two truckers stop at a Diner and the one orders "Pie 'n a Coke" while the other orders "Pie 'n a Pepsi"; they switch beverages and the one with the Pepsi refuses to re-switch, the pie being the only thing the two truckers both like.
It is also a favourite side dish of Twin Peaks character Dale Cooper along with coffee.[citation needed]

Daily News on Nuclear, Biological & Chemical Weapons, Terrorism and Related Issues
Fukushima Cleanup to Cost Minimum of $13B
The Japanese government said it anticipates spending a minimum of $13 billion to rehabilitate all of the territory exposed to radioactive contaminants from the disabled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear complex, Reuters reported on Thursday (see GSN, Oct. 17).
"At least 1 trillion yen will be budgeted as we take on the responsibility for decontamination," Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda told public broadcaster NHK on Thursday. "It is a prerequisite for people to return to their homelands."
The six-reactor Fukushima atomic power plant was crippled by the March 11 earthquake and ensuing tsunami that left thousands missing or dead in Japan. Radiation emissions on a scale not recorded since the 1986 Chernobyl disaster necessitated the evacuation of some 80,000 Japanese citizens from a 12-mile area surrounding the hobbled atomic facility in Fukushima prefecture.
The Japanese government could have to deal with 29 million cubic meters of contaminated dirt from Fukushima prefecture and four other neighboring prefectures.
Tokyo presently has $2.89 billion in hand to spend on nuclear cleanup efforts and intends to earmark an additional $3.28 billion in another special spending plan that is anticipated to be finalized on Friday, the prime minister said. Further funds would be allocated in the next budget year.
Some analysts predict the final cost of rehabilitation will be much more than $13 billion.
International Atomic Energy Agency specialists in a trip to Japan last week advised that Tokyo be more aggressive in its radiation remediation efforts (Rie Ishiguro, Reuters, Oct. 20).

Sunday, October 6, 2013
HOLLIS — In the game that set up the biggest one of the season for St. Thomas Aquinas, it was the defense that set up the offense.
"It's frustrating when you stress things throughout the week, and when you come out on Saturday it's worse than the week before," said Cumba, who liked neither the decision-making nor the execution.
Geppert's second interception late in the third quarter set up the game's only other score, after he leapt for a pass thrown toward the left sideline. After some gains and some penalties, he burst through a hole on the left side and raced 38 yards for the touchdown that made it 14-0.
Two teams played defense Saturday night. The Saints are fortunate they got just enough offense to win. |

An Angel at my Table {Mari Eriksson}
Mari Eriksson authors a beautiful blog called An Angel at my Table and though it's in Swedish her more recent posts contain a bit of English so you can follow along. It's filled with photos of her home and workspace that are nothing short of inspirational and lovely. There are so many things that I enjoy about her home, from the white wood floors to the industrial pieces living so nicely alongside modern country, chandeliers, and great vintage finds (like the lockers and her sewing machine). Isn't this a glowing space?
Mari lives in Sweden and as I drool over her magazine worthy abode, I'm left to wonder what this obviously talented lady does for a living. A designer? stylist? photographer? She doesn't mention it in her blog. Her home has lots of character and positive energy, everything is arranged so effortlessly chic!
Pairing unexpected things seems to be a theme here in Mari's home. All of the furniture appears to have modern clean lines no matter what period it is from. Good tip to note when you try this look at home. Select furniture that coordinates by color/wood – select a few that you like, i.e. gray, white, and medium wood tones for instance, and then by style like clean modern lines (works best). If you have a curvy piece, you can add it to create a little tension but go easy on mixing curvy with straight because you won't be able to pull off Mari's look if this is what you're going for. I'd consider one curvy dresser or desk and leave it at that.
I love the idea of using a bench along the wall in an eating nook. It's a clever use of space because if you live in small quarters a slim bench is so practical. You can also look for one with a lift up seat to provide additional storage. My friend in Montreal uses a detailed vintage church pew (like this one only with a clear stain) that she purchased at a flea market and it's topped with a simple white linen cushion. The detailed carvings and overall patina of the wood paired with her white-washed farm table and white Bertoia side chairs looks so nice.
Show of hands… How many would like to move in? :)

No offense to you but most blogs and magazines here in American are saturated in either contemporary, mid century modern, or that over the top design like Domino and all their rich socialite homes. I'm completely gagging over what's considered in vogue here lately. It's all so tired and boring and when I read Domino lately it's like half the homes look like a place my grandmother would be really keen on, in Floria.
Marisa and Creative Thursday commented
January 23rd, 2008 at 2:57amOh of course I love this. It reminds me of Germany. And I have to say I agree a bit with Jane, above. Lately I am so very bored with American fashion and home design. I can't put my finger on exactly what it is that is so different, and appealing with European design. Maybe it just feels more authentic, and graciously lived in instead of consumer oriented and "plastic". Also our version of clean, "modern" design is sooooo COLD.
Thank you for sharing these!! :) I'm inspired again! -

January 23rd, 2008 at 3:14amI really like the place. I myself am inexplicably drawn to color but love to look at pared down palettes like this one…so calming. The Scandinavians got it goin' on! Truth be told I could have 3 or 4 houses to appeal to all my aesthetic drives! Particularly like the "studio" pics as I am in the process of redoing mine…very inspiring!

Multihypothesis motion compensation has been widely used in video coding with previous attention focused on techniques employing predictions that are diverse spatially or temporally. In this paper, the multihypothesis concept is extended into the transform domain by using a redundant wavelet transform to produce multiple predictions that are diverse in transform phase. The corresponding multiple-phase inverse transform implicitly combines the phase-diverse predictions into a single spatial-domain prediction for motion compensation. The performance advantage of this redundant-wavelet-multihypothesis approach is investigated analytically, invoking the fact that the multiple-phase inverse involves a projection that significantly reduces the power of a dense-motion residual modeled as additive noise. The analysis shows that redundant-wavelet multihypothesis is capable of up to a 7-dB reduction in prediction-residual variance over an equivalent single-phase, single-hypothesis approach. Experimental results substantiate the performance advantage for a block-based implementation

AOpen AX4B 533 Tube Motherboard Review - PAGE 4
Howard Ha, Peter Judson- Thursday, November 14th, 2002 Like Share
The overall performance trends are so slight between the two boards that the most logical conclusion we can draw from this is that the AX4B-533 Tube has performance on par with other 845E boards, in spite of the changes AOpen made in order to get the Tube circuitry in place. It seems our initial concern that such a major fusion between two technologies might compromise performance was unfounded.
Audio Performance
Were far from audiophiles here, but I consider myself a decent audio enthusiast. I have a fairly nice setup at home consisting of a Denon amplifier/receiver, B&W speakers, and a Sony ES CD player for pure music listening, and I have a respectable pair of MidiLand S2 speakers for my computer audio and gaming. So what do I say about the AX4B Tube sound? It definitely has advantages over standard AC97 that you get from any other integrated sound.
In fact, we did some A-B comparison tests comparing the AX4B Tube against a few other motherboards with integrated audio, and its very clear that the Tube brings out a richness and texture to the audio that cant be heard with the other motherboards. In music of all kinds, theres a sense of depth, of lushness and vigor that you dont get with regular audio. Detail in the higher frequencies is especially easy to identify: stringed instruments have a greater sense of depth, with orchestral pieces showing an open and airy soundstage. Deeper sounding instruments like the bass, cello, and the bass portions of piano pieces have a stronger, more subtly guttural impact. The overall experience is definitely more enjoyable than the same experience with regular, integrated audio.
Article Index
I currently have my system plugged into a modifies Packard Bell PB-51 tube stereo (Both preamp and poweramp). Sounds beautiful.
Thank you for your time,
Frank Russo
At around $200US, it's definitely a cheaper way to get the basics of Tube sound. The only other option is to pay try and find a $100 mobo with relatively good integrated sound, and then pass it through to the cheapest external tube component that you can find. But then woudn't your audio already have been preamplified by (possibly cheap) solid state components on the motherboard?
What I Know Of Valve Amps is That They Need 2 tubes and a Transformer for Each Audio Chanel
So 1 Tube for 5.1 sound ?????
That does not sound good to me........
And What Wood happen if You had a
Water Block Leaking on the M/B
Hi Voltage and water DONT MIX!!!!!!
One thing we never tested was how things would sound in 5.1 audio, so that is definitely a valid concern.
I wonder... if watercooling is so quiet that it would actually benefit the Tube sound. I found the fans in our PSU and case sort of distracting while testing out the board.
David Sarser
Otherwise, I enjoyed your review.
Your Friendly No Bullshit Guest
quote RedemptionNo, not if you have a sound card with a standard line-out. A line out by itself it not amplified, so if your sound card has a true line out, you will need an external amp to get sound from it.But then woudn't your audio already have been preamplified by (possibly cheap) solid state components on the motherboard?
Like myself. I have the ESI Juli@ sound card (which has a very good DAC, the same as the M-Audio Audiophile 192) which has a standard un-amped line out. I have a [url=http://www.wooaudio.com/products/wooaudio3.html]WooAudio 3[/url] tube headphone amp hooked up to it powering the Sennheiser HD650 headphones.
The sound is amazing.


text: If you are happy with what was done to you or your loved one at a hospital, great. But if you think that the hospital wronged you or your loved one and the result was an illness, injury or death caused by hospital wrongdoing then you have to be aware that hospitals carry medical malpractice insurance. If you or your loved one have been sickened, injured, maimed or killed as a result of a hospital's misdiagnosis, negligence, hospital "super bugs" etc., then you or your loved one are entitled to compensation/justice. Always remember that hospitals will do everything in their power to prevent you or your loved one from ever getting the compensation/justice that they owe you. The hospitals will not help you even when they know that they are responsible for your tragedy. Our Canadian medical establishment assumes that its patient/victims will usually be quiet and submissive victims. Unfortunately this is true because the vast majority of patient/victims of hospital wrongdoing do not exercise their right to sue for medical malpractice. Hospital caused tragedies call out for justice/compensation for the patient/victims not more "whitewash and spin" ( read coverups ) from their "risk management" ( smoke and mirrors ) offices. Surrendering your right to sue for compensation/justice only makes it easier for our Canadian hospitals to continue to kill approx. 50,000 ( fifty thousand ) patient/victims every year and sicken, injure or maim another 250,000 ( two hundred and fifty thousand ) patient/victims every year by negligence, medical errors, misdiagnosis, hospital "super bugs" etc.

Characterization of Nanocomposites by Thermal Analysis

Abstract: In materials research, the development of polymer nanocomposites (PN) is rapidly emerging as a multidisciplinary research field with results that could broaden the applications of polymers to many different industries. PN are polymer matrices (thermoplastics, thermosets or elastomers) that have been reinforced with small quantities of nano-sized particles, preferably characterized by high aspect ratios, such as layered silicates and carbon nanotubes. Thermal analysis (TA) is a useful tool to investigate a wide variety of properties of polymers and it can be also applied to PN in order to gain further insight into their structure. This review illustrates the versatile applications of TA methods in the emerging field of polymer nanomaterial research, presenting some examples of applications of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA) and thermal mechanical analysis (TMA) for the characterization of nanocomposite materials.

I have to write this review because... well... when it comes to finding a protein powder and a company that Im proud to support... its Vega. Not only is this the most delicious shake after many trials of other yucky shakes, but I absolutely LOVE that its plant based, super healthy I mean, just look at the nutritional details on the bottle, and VERY sustainable for the earth. I have a lot of respect for Brandon Brazier and will continue to buy this shake. The chocolate is my favorite, but the vanilla chai and french vanilla are also good. Check out Vegas website for recipes. I usually use my NutriBullet to mix in the powder, almold milk, plus bananas, frozen berries, cinnamon, etc. depending on what shake Im going for. Enjoy! :
Original formula Vega was the perfect food and well worth the price. The spectrum of nutrition and high fiber was a wonder. I used it as the basis of a regime on which I lost 100 pounds. During the shift from old to new, I hoarded original Vega and bought every container I could find. I ingest 2 scoops for breakfast before exercising. When it runs out in a few months, I'll be the worse. Now, Vega nutritional shake is only a pale shadow of its former self. It grieves me to say it, but not worth the price.
Vega All in One is the bomb! Not a food fan / and dont have a lot of time often to be bothered, and with this product I dont have to for go my healthy nutrition..and it tastes great as well.
I'm half way through my first container of Vega One (Berry). It taste great. I usually blend mine with a frozen banana and frozen blue berries and water and ice. I have even mixed it with fresh juiced spinach and carrots. It's got a great taste however I mix it. I am most interested in this product b/c I am doing a 4 week, high intensity training cycle, and I want to fuel myself with natural nutrients to see how my body responds. I plan on being 100% Gluten, Soy, Dairy, Alcohol, and Excuses free for this 4 weeks and see how far I can push myself. Week 1 is finished and I have had good recovery and energy. As the warning suggested though, I did experience soft pooh, borderline diarrhea at times.

Pat founded Fallon in 1981 with the single-minded desire to stand for creative excellence—in the people hired, in the partnerships forged, in the work produced, and in the results achieved.
He spends much of his time today nurturing the company's culture, being a brand ambassador, coaching young people, and consulting on clients' businesses. Fallon's deep knowledge of branding issues, his thirst for learning all things new, his relentless need to achieve, and his rigorous approach to problem solving continue to make him an invaluable asset to client CEOs.
Fallon has won virtually every recognition in the business, but his most valued achievement is the trust he has earned from his clients. Moreover, through the years he has had amazing good fortune in attracting and keeping talented people—people of character and unusually high standards of excellence that have made Fallon their professional home. Fallon never forgets the gratitude of debt he owes to them for taking his vision and making it their own and then working together to attain the shared ideals of creativity and profitability.
Fallon is a past board member of the Minnesota Orchestra, The Guthrie Theater and the Ordway Center for Performing Arts. He is currently a board member for the National Children's Defense Fund. Fallon is also an active commissioner for the Minnesota Combative Sports Commission (formerly the Minnesota Boxing Commission). Fallon is a published author—Juicing the Orange—written with his long-time partner and friend, Fred Senn. And rumor has it he may have a novel in him that is currently trying to escape the boundaries of his 5-foot-7-inch, blue-steel anatomical frame.
Fallon, who lives in Minneapolis, has five children—Kevin, Megan, Duffy, Reilly and Tressa—as well as one grandson, Leo, and a daughter-in-law, Leslie. They are the center of his life and an ongoing source of tremendous pride.

We're down to one last pick and I was wondering who everyone was hoping to get if they were still there. One guy I like is Charles Gordon. If he was to make the team, he would give us another option in the return game and could add bulk and eventually contribute with the regular defense. Another guy is Anwar Phillips. Decent sized DB that could play at either corner or safety. Hank Baskett is someone with probably a better chance of making the team than anyone at this point in the draft because of our overall depth chart at WR. He doesn't have the exceptional route-running ability that we're used to but he just seems to dominate games when he needs to. Tough blocker, physical player that will go for the ball. Solid WR. Mgteich has mentioned before we could use someone as competition for Klecko and Thomas. That could come in Rodrique Wright. I've seen most of UT's games since he was a true freshman. Like his bio will read, he never really turned it on and dominated non-stop the way you would expect but he is still a solid DL that did make plays. He has huge upside if the coaches can get him to play consistently, the same has been said for Gabe Watson.
Miles Austin WR Kai Parham LB Devin Armoshogubu WR (i spelled his name wrong but the guy from Auburn) Oliver Hoyte? LB
Found the perfect guy for you... (I erased the never played in college part) http://lvgladiators.com/team/players/?id=2818

Launchpad Hyundai's new hatchback Eon attracts with its styling, well-built interiors and promise of fuel efficiency
The all-new Eon's appearance is so swanky, you need to be constantly reminded that it is a budget hatchback. And that tells you about Hyundai's approach towards the Eon — to make customers believe that they are buying a proper modern car and not something that has been hanging around for a long time.
Hyundai's Fluidic Sculpture design language has been brilliantly executed on the Korean carmaker's cheapest car yet. Up front, the car shares a resemblance with other Hyundais, thanks to its smart hexagonal grille and large swept-back headlamps. There is no shortage of style on the front bumper either that comes with neat recesses for the fog lamps and flows seamlessly into the large front wheel arches. The wheels feature smart covers that make them look like alloys.
View the Eon from the side and your attention will be drawn to the bold character line that kinks upwards towards the tail-light. The rear wheel arches are quite pronounced too but these make the rear wheels look a tad small from certain angles. Rear-end styling is smart with a large windscreen and really distinctive crescent-shaped tail-lamps.
The Eon's wide-opening doors open to reveal a smart interior. Beige is the colour of choice for the lower portion of the dash and door pads (on all variants) and this gives the interiors an airy ambience. The hexagonal theme from the car's frontal styling is carried over to the dashboard as well and the whole look is quite pleasing.
Taking pride of place on the dash is the CD player that also features AUX and USB connectivity. Just below this, the chunky air conditioning dials are not only nice to look at but work well too. Worth a mention are the deceptively small central AC vents that actually do a fine job of channelling air through the cabin. Fit and finish are impressive and the plastics, which have a hard-wearing feel about them, look good too.
The Eon comes with a fair amount of space to store odds and ends. You get a large glovebox, the front door pockets feature bottle-holders with enough space for a map book, and you can even fit a bottle in the cavity on the dashboard top. However, rear passengers have to make do with a single bottle-holder just behind the gearbox.
The single-piece front seats provide fair back support but their tapering shape means your shoulders are literally unsupported. Under-thigh support is not impressive and we found the fixed headrests a tad short.
The rear doors open wide enough but the flat seat with built-in headrests feels too reclined and taller passengers will be short on shoulder support in the back as well. Under-thigh support could be better and headroom is limited.
Open the Eon's boot and you will be pleasantly surprised by the space on offer. At 215 litres, it is large enough for a big suitcase and you have the option to fold the rear seats forward if more space is needed.
Hyundai has equipped the Eon with a three-cylinder, 814cc engine. In essence, this is the 1.1-litre motor that powers the i10, with one cylinder less. The engine does, however, get a counter balancer to keep vibrations in check. Bore and stroke measure 67 x 77mm while the engine features a three-valves-per-cylinder SOHC arrangement. Peak power output is 55bhp. The Eon shares its five-speed transmission with the Santro and features a mechanical linkage.
Turn the ignition on and the engine settles at a quiet idle. Vibrations are well-contained and it is only the quivering gear lever that really reminds you of being in a three-cylinder car.
The launch event had us drive largely on the deserted NH76 from Udaipur to Devala and back, but it was the route from our hotel to the highway that really gave us a feel of the Eon in the environments it is built for.
Get going and you'll hear a typical three-cylinder thrum from the engine. Power delivery at slow speeds is slightly jerky. What also became apparent the more we drove was that the engine does not have the pep of the Alto K-series' larger motor. Power is adequate to keep up with city traffic but you do need to pre-plan when overtaking bigger vehicles. Shifting down a gear helps when power is needed most.
What's impressive is that the engine doesn't feel bogged down when you switch on the air-con. The Eon is primarily a city car but give it space and it will happily cruise at 120kph with the engine still not sounding strained. Hyundai claims a 21kpl ARAI economy figure for the Eon — impressive indeed!
One of the Eon's strengths is its ride quality. The car uses MacPherson struts in front that work in tandem with a torsion beam suspension at the rear. Despite the small diameter wheels, ride is very absorbent, even on pothole-laden streets. The little Eon even takes smooth undulations in its stride. Slightly firm springs and a long wheelbase also serve to give the Eon good straightline stability on the highway.
Handling is good fun, helped largely by the direct feel of the Eon's electronic power steering. City driving requires little effort and tight parking spots are hardly a worry, thanks to the Eon's tight turning circle.
However, the steering lacks self-centering action and this can be a concern at highway speeds.
The Eon comes in six variants, prices ranging from 2.69 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) for the barely-equipped D-lite base variant to Rs 3.71 lakh for the top-end Sportz version.
The Eon ticks many boxes. It may not have the space of the Tata Nano or the power of the Alto K10, but it tempts you with its combination of eye-catching styling, well-built interiors and promises of great fuel economy.

Here's an oddball question... Today my friend asked me to do a little experiment with a potential Vlad build. He asked me whjat would happen if I just stacked Rylai's, how effective would it be? Well, I already knew that it would be a nice amount of HP and AP, but the real experiemtn was to see how much Transfusion would slow targets. Now, I've never ben reliant on the Slow from Rylai's. It never seemed to be that big. But the idea of hitting someone with a massive Slow was tempting, so I tried it. The problem is, it didn't seem to effect the slow amount at all...Despite the fact that Rylai's passive is non-unique. So, the question here is how exactly does the Rylai's passive stack? What's the formula? Also, how does it effect abilities that already slow, like Sanguine Pool? Also, I've been using Frozen Mallet on Ashe, which is just sinister for soft CC, how exactly does Frozen Mallet work with Frost Shot? What the heck is the slow on Frozen Mallet anyways, it doesn't say. I'm just curious as to how stacking Slow effects, from one player source, adds up.
Different types of slows stack, like frozen mallet and frost shot, but not the same type (like stacking rylais). They stack multiplicatively, with diminishing returns once they get below a certain movespeed (I think its 200).
1 item slow (rylais, mallet, or lizard buff) and 1 ability slow (wither, frost shot, mocking shout) The highest value will be applied for each catagory
One item slow, one ability slow (I think. Plus Rylai's is unique passive, IIRC) Urgot + Rylai's is crazy. In more ways than one.
The strongest slows in the game are Karthus' wall and Nasus' Wither, right? And they get bonus from Rylais (please don't build Rylais with Nasus kids, that's not what I'm saying.) But would that make it possible to push move speed reduction up to 100%?
Those 2 slows dont get bonuses from rylai because they dont do damage. Nunu's iceball is -60% speed
Transfusion is considered a "multi-target" spell, so it will only slow by 15%. Also, the slows from the same source (in this example Rylai's) do not stack, basically it won't matter how many Rylai's you have in your inventory, you will slow for 15% everytime. IIRC there's a Guinsoo post laying around detailing it.
