DJ Young 1 Rocks The Stanton Stand
Every parent wants their son or daughter to get ahead at a young age. There will always be the proverbial "apple not falling far from the tree", and parents sometimes wish to see their kids succeed where they have failed. We've seen the extreme cases of this where a parents works the kid into hating the hobby the parents so dearly love – but there are always successful cases where the entire family is involved in a sport or hobby, like those families who all play sports. Music is not an exception to this trend, and given that fact that music isn't taught as widely as it should be, kids who have parents with musical background can expect to really get ahead.
The first generation of DJs are now growing up to be fathers and mothers, so we will be seeing more and more youth getting into DJing at an early age. Many of us are still shocked to see an adolescent child display a few techniques behind the turntables, since the general public literally has no knowledge of what a DJ does in the first place. The problem I think is, "Will this become something of a spectacle rather than a display of talent?

Mini Sub Rolls
From Cathy of Toledo, Ohio on 12/25/2014.
Product came nicely boxed and fresh. Worked great for our Cuban sandwiches. Just wish you offered regular shipping also with NO gift box as this was not a gift. This would save the consumer money, who is only purchasing for their own use.

Mini Sub Rolls
From Robert of Albuquerque, New Mexico on 8/11/2014.
OK. Started consuming the sliced bread as soon as it arrived and put the rolls in the freezer for future use. So I have not tried the mini rolls yet. But based on the sliced bread taste the rolls can't be far behind, could they? And, they look so cute sitting there in the freezer just waiting to be . . .
Highly Recommended
From V. Streifel of Baytown, Texas on 2/10/2014.
These are my summer sausage , cheese and lettuce buns or anything you want to put on them! They're delicious , fresh and well packed!
2/24/2013 – Is it possible to freeze leftover buns?
Response From King's Hawaiian Bakery: Yes. However, if you plan to eat our bread within a week or two, you don't have to freeze it. We recommend storing our bread in a cool and dry place. If you would like to keep the product longer than that, you can freeze it. When you are ready to eat it, just set it on the counter for a few hours to thaw out, then enjoy!
1/26/2013 – Hello, i love this bread over any other. Are there any plans tp commercialized it in Colombia? Or can I get the distribution? . . .
Response From King's Hawaiian Bakery: Your passion for our bread is truly appreciated. Unfortunately, we are not yet set up to do business in Colombia but we expect to someday.

The other day I was coming home from shopping, dragging my grocery cart, when I saw a tiny black kitten under a car. It was maybe six to eight weeks old, and I had no idea if it was feral or somebody's lost pet; so I called softly, hoping that it would trust me enough to come out. It didn't. It got so spooked that it ran into the drainpipe that runs from an apartment building to the curb--a drainpipe maybe four inches in diameter, just big enough for a tiny kitten.
So I got out my flashlight and looked inside. The kitten was wedged into the drainpipe, which was blocked by a big clump of mud and dead grass. I had no idea if the little thing could wiggle out again. And the rain was coming.
What could I do? I put on some gloves and reached in after the kitten, and barely got hold of its back leg to pull it gently out. It seemed to be stuck somehow; but it finally wiggled free. When I got it out of the drainpipe, it panicked and bit me several times through the glove. I tried to get a better hold on it, to grab hold of its scruff; I was so scared I was going to hurt its little leg, holding it like that. But holding onto a scared and possibly feral kitten is tough, especially if you are wearing gloves, and the little one broke free and dashed away across the parking lot. I caught a glimpse of it near another building, but nothing after that.
I searched for a long while, and had a chat with a woman who lived in the apartment building. She had her beagle with her on a leash, and said she had seen the black kitten earlier that day and tried to lure it out. At least there is another animal person nearby.
I went home and scrubbed the bites thoroughly. They're healing now. That's a good thing; cat bites are serious business.
There are a lot of thoughtless college students around here who will adopt a cat, then dump it when they can't keep it for some reason or another. That leads to a visible feral population. I don't know whether this kitten was feral or just scared out of its mind; I think I would be scared, too, if I had run into a drainpipe and been pulled out of it by a total stranger. I do know I'll probably never be able to catch it again. We don't have a TNR program in this area.
But it did seem like a very energetic, wily little thing. Perhaps it will survive. I hope so.

COLUMBIA, S.C. — South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier truly likes Clemson's Dabo Swinney. The Tigers coach has the ultimate respect for the Gamecocks' head ball coach.
Both coaches say the other's wife is among the most wonderful people they've ever met.
Not much fodder to fuel the Palmetto State's biggest rivalry.
No, there's not much off-the-field spice in the 111th meeting between No. 6 Clemson (10-1) and No. 10 South Carolina (9-2) at Williams-Brice Stadium on Saturday night. It's more of a mutual admiration society headed up by the head coaches.
CHARLESTON, S.C. — Nebraska did more than work on help defense or foul shooting at its off-day practice. the Cornhuskers cleared the air and got back on track at the Charleston Classic.
Nebraska coach Tim Miles said he, his staff and the players met on Saturday to discuss what had gone wrong the first two tournament games and how to turn things around. The get-together worked as the Cornhuskers rallied in the second half to defeat Georgia 73-65 and took seventh-place in the eight-team tournament.
CHARLESTON, S.C. — Will Cummings knew someone had to make a big shot for Temple and he was more than willing to step up.
Cummings' 3-pointer with 7 seconds left lifted the Owls to an 83-81 victory over Georgia at the Charleston Classic on Friday and rescued the Owls after the Bulldogs had rallied from 13 points down to move in front 81-80 on Charles Mann's driving layup moments earlier.
"As soon as I released it, I knew it was good," Cummings said.
COLUMBIA, S.C. — Though Steve Spurrier knows South Carolina won't be the main attraction this weekend at fifth-ranked Missouri, he's hopeful that his 20th-ranked Gamecocks can drag themselves and several other Southeastern Conference East teams back into the divisional race with a win.
CLEMSON, S.C. — Clemson offensive coordinator Chad Morris says it's time for the ninth-ranked Tigers to get back to basics on offense.
The Tigers (6-1, 4-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) have struggled to run even their most basic plays the past two games, Morris said Monday, managing just 38 points combined against Boston College and Florida State. That's much lower than the 44 points a game they averaged the first five weeks of the season.
CLEMSON, S.C. — Get ready for the first College Football Playoff game when No. 5 Florida State and No. 3 Clemson meet on Saturday.
While the four-team chase for the BCS title doesn't start until 2014, the playoffs will probably look and feel very much like Saturday night's Atlantic Coast Conference showdown between the Seminoles (5-0) and Tigers (6-0) in a jam-packed stadium, ESPN College GameDay will be on campus with a track to the national title game at stake.
COLUMBIA, S.C. — South Carolina quarterback Connor Shaw is on pace to lead the 14th-ranked Gamecocks to their best offensive season in program history. And he's not going to let injuries stop him.
Shaw has a 21-4 career mark as a starter. He's four wins shy of surpassing ex-Gamecocks QB Todd Ellis' school record of 24 victories. Shaw has completed nearly 69 percent of his passes this fall and hasn't thrown an interception.
He's helped the Gamecocks average a school-best 476 yards a game and on they're on track to surpass 6,000 yards of offense for the first time.
Clemson defensive tackle Grady Jarrett is glad to see the third-ranked Tigers getting attention for their defense.
The accolades will continue if the unit keeps shutting teams down.
Clemson has held its past four opponents to 14 points of less, something that hadn't been done since the first four games of the 2000 season. And a big reason is the play of the defensive line, which leads the Atlantic Coast Conference with 19 sacks. Defensive end Vic Beasley leads the country with eight sacks.
COLUMBIA, S.C. — Injured South Carolina All-American Jadeveon Clowney made it clear Tuesday that he plans to play a lot more college football before moving on to the NFL.
The 6-foot-6, 274-pound defensive end said Tuesday that he's receiving treatment several times a day on the strained muscle near his rib cage so he might return in time to face Arkansas on Saturday.
"Am I fully committed? Always," Clowney said. "I could've sat out. I'm not looking to sit out. I'm not that type of guy. I'm here for the team."
COLUMBIA, S.C. — Jadeveon Clowney has people talking again — and for a reason no one expected when his final season kicked off six weeks ago.
The South Carolina All-American pulled himself from the lineup Saturday night a short time before the Gamecocks' 35-28 victory over Kentucky, saying pain from strained muscles around his ribs was too much to bear.

Comments about Angle Adjuster:
I bought two months ago and it is comfortable a lot
Comments about Angle Adjuster:
This product does indeed make the seat sit more upright while rear-facing. However, the foam compress within 2-3 months so much that the upright factor goes away and I have to buy yet another one for my extended rear-facing children. I have gone through at least 4 already in 2 years (I don't buy new ones right away because it's a pain and it adds up). Also, on leather seats the foam slides around making a tight install that much more difficult. Please, redesign your seats. I bought two of them because of their ratings but between trying to get a good installation rear-facing, the angle issue and the headwings always sliding down, I'm very frustrated.
Comments about Angle Adjuster:
We have the Diono Radian RXT for our daughter and she was so excited when we added the Angle Adjuster. She can now sit more upright (which at over a year old she definitely prefers) and we have more room in the front seat. We plan on keeping our daughter rear facing as long as possible and with the addition of the Angle Adjuster she is much more content in the car and probably feels more like a big girl because it is easier for her to look around and see what's going on now that she is not laying down so much like she was before we got the Angle Adjuster. I also feel safe knowing that since it is made by the same company that made our car seat it was designed and tested to be a safe combination with our Diono carseat.
Comments about Angle Adjuster:
This adjuster was perfect to tilt the carseat a bit more vertical to avoid drivers seat. Even though it is "just a piece of foam" I would still recommend buying the Diono brand.

Ismael from Brooklyn, NY– Verified Buyer
It's a very nice drafting table and great if you are on a small budget. It SHOULD come with a stool but doesn't. Once assembled it's great. The small compartments are a nice attachment but the other holding handle divice is really worthless. If I could order it again I would get the more advance model for a couple of dollars more. Over all its great if you are starting out in art or drafting but NOT for an advanced artist or draftsman.

A receiver incorporating a phase-locked loop to demodulate a signal comprising a plurality of distinct baseband components is disclosed. The loop filter circuit includes an adjustable resistive element for varying the loop damping factor, thereby providing optimum separation of the baseband components. In addition, the loop filter circuit provides a bandpass high-frequency noise output to a noise-activated muting circuit.
1. In a receiver having a phase-locked loop demodulator comprising a phase detector, a VCO, and a loop filter circuit for demodulating a carrier signal modulated by a baseband signal which is derived from a plurality of distinct signal components and having a demultiplexer for reconstructing said signal components, the loop filter circuit comprising:
a first resistor connected between the input of the VCO and a source of potential voltage;
a resistive-capacitive branch connected between the input of the VCO and circuit ground, said branch comprising a second, variable, resistor and series-connected capacitor, wherein the loop filter circuit is characterized by a damping factor, Z, whose value is determined by the value of the variable resistive element and whereby the value of the variable resistive element is adjusted to effect optimum phase-linearity of the demodulated baseband signal, thereby allowing optimum separation of the reconstructed signal components.
This invention relates to receivers having phase-locked loop demodulators and more particularly to receivers for demodulating a signal comprised of a plurality of distinct baseband components, such as broadcast stereophonic receivers.
Phase-locked loop demodulators contribute significantly to performance improvements in many types of receiving systems. Particular improvements are conspicuous in FM stereophonic receivers. One of the important performance characteristics of such a receiver is the ability to reduce the FM detection threshold, thereby improving the signal-to-noise ratio on weak signals. This ability is substantially derived from the inherent low pass frequency response characteristic of phase-locked loop demodulators. However, unless this frequency response characteristic is optimized, degradation of the separation between the distinct stereophonic signal components is introduced. Clearly this degradation cannot be eliminated by subsequent receiver stages and will ultimately appear at the receiver output. Known prior art phase-locked loop demodulators do not include circuitry for optimizing stereophonic separation.
Many prior art receivers incorporate noise-activated muting circuits to interrupt the receiver output during the absence of input signals of at least a minimum desired amplitude. These circuits are typically activated by a band-limited or a high pass filtered noise signal outside the spectrum of the desired demodulated signal. Typical prior art noise muting circuits required at least a high-frequency bandpass filter and noise amplifier. Because phase-locked loop demodulators possess a relatively narrow noise bandwidth and provide a reduced high-frequency noise output, additional noise amplification is required for operation with muting circuits.
Accordingly, it is an object of this invention to provide a receiver including a phase-locked loop demodulator.
It is a further object of this invention to provide demodulation of a signal comprising a plurality of distinct components.
It is a further object of this invention to provide optimum separation of the distinct baseband components.
It is a further object of this invention to provide a receiver including a phase-locked loop demodulator and a noise-activated muting circuit.
It is a further object of this invention to minimize the amount of noise amplification required in the noise muting circuit.
It is a further object of this invention to minimize the amount of filter circuitry required in the noise-muting circuit.
The above and other objects and advantages are achieved in one aspect of this invention in a receiver having a phase-locked loop for demodulating a carrier signal modulated by a baseband signal consisting of a plurality of distinct signal components. The phase-locked loop includes a loop filter circuit comprising a variable resistive element for effecting adjustable separation of said baseband signals.
In another aspect of this invention the receiver includes a loop filter circuit which includes a series resistive-capacitive branch having a first terminal connected to a voltage controlled oscillator for providing a control signal having a lowpass characteristic with a cutoff frequency at approximately the loop natural frequency, Wn, and a second terminal for providing a high-frequency noise signal having a bandpass characteristic with a center frequency at approximately Wn, to a noise-activated muting circuit for interrupting an output of said receiver during the absence of an input signal of the desired amplitude.
FIG. 1 illustrates a stereophonic receiver incorporating a preferred embodiment of the invention; and
FIG. 2 illustrates a portion of a stereophonic receiver incorporating a second preferred embodiment of the invention.
For a better understanding of the present invention, together with other and further objects, advantages and capabilities thereof, reference is made to the following disclosure and appended claims in connection with the above-described drawings.
FIG. 1 illustrates a broadcast stereophonic receiver comprising the applicant's invention. It will be obvious to those skilled in the art that the invention is useful in other types of equipment as well.
An antenna 10 intercepts a modulated radio frequency carrier signal and couples it to a tuner 11. As is generally known, in a stereophonic system the carrier signal is frequency modulated by a baseband signal including at least an (L + R) signal component occupying a frequency range of approximately 0-15 KHz and an (L - R) signal component translated to the frequency range of approximately 23-53 KHz. Tuner 11 amplifies and converts the radio frequency signal to an intermediate frequency, for example, of 10.7 MHz. An IF amplifier 12 further amplifies and filters the signal providing an output to a limiter 13. Limiter 13 substantially reduces undesired amplitude variations in the signal and assures a relatively constant level signal to a phase-locked loop demodulator 20. Demodulator 20 includes a phase detector 21, a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) 22 and a loop filter circuit 23. Loop filter circuit 23 includes a resistor R1 connected between a source of potential B+ and VCO 22 input, and a series resistive-capacitive branch comprising a variable resistor R2 and a capacitor C1 connected between VCO 22 input and circuit ground. The loop filter circuit provides, at a terminal 24, a control signal to VCO 22 and, at a terminal 25 a demodulated signal to a noise muting circuit 30. Noise muting circuit 30 comprises a noise filter 31, a noise amplifier 32, a noise detector 33, and a noise gate 34. Muting circuits are well-known and operate to block the demodulated output during the absence of input signals of at least the desired magnitude. The output of muting circuit 30 is applied to a noise gate 34 having an output applied to a demultiplexer 40. Demultiplexer 40 reconstructs, from the (L + R) and (L - R) baseband components, the desired L signal and R signal. These signals are applied to L and R output amplifiers 50 and 51, respectively.
The operation and advantages of phase-locked loops in the demodulation of frequency modulation signals is well documented. (See Gardner, Floyd M.; Phaselock Techniques, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., New York 1967). In addition, the applicant provides analysis and description of the subject invention and particular embodiments thereof in his paper entitled "Phase-locked Loops Using Quadrature Detector Integrated Circuits", appearing in the IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics, Volume 22, Number 1, February 1976, pp. 94-98.
As detailed therein, many important receiver operating parameters are determined by the characteristics and components of the phase-locked loop in general and the loop filter circuit in particular. Specifically, the loop transfer function is dependent on the loop natural frequency, Wn, and the loop damping factor, Z. For a loop filter circuit as in FIG. 1 with R1 much greater than R2:
Wn 2 = (approximately) (KD Ko)/R1C
Z = (approximately) (Wn R2 C)/2,
where KD is the phase detector gain constant in (volts)/radian and Ko is the VCO gain constant in (radians/sec.)/volt.
It is a function of stereophonic receivers to demodulate the distinct (L + R) and (L - R) components and from them to reconstruct the L and R stereophonic signals. Ideally, this is accomplished while completely maintaining the separation between the L and R signals. In practice high frequency attenuation and phase non-linearities in the demodulator and errors in the demultiplexer result in some degradation in stereophonic separation.
Clearly any degradation in the separation between the demodulated (L + R) and (L - R) signals will result in degradation in the separation of the reconstructed L and R signals. Furthermore, any adjustable controls included in the demultiplexer circuitry will be largely, if not entirely ineffectual in compensating for a degradation in separation arising during the demodulation process.
However, the frequency response shape of the loop, and hence the separation between the demodulated signal components, is dependent on the loop damping factor Z. Variable resistor R1 controls the loop damping factor in such a manner as to provide optimum separation of the baseband componets, thereby allowing optimum separation of the L and R stereophonic signals. In addition, the component values for R1, R2, and C have been selected to establish a damping factor Z approximately equal to 0.5, thereby effecting a minimum noise bandwidth and optimum receiver sensitivity.
Significantly, in receivers requiring no further complex processing of the demodulated baseband components, for example demultiplexing, optimizing separation in the demodulator substantially optimizes separation for the entire receiver.
One practical embodiment of the circuitry illustrated in FIG. 1 may be partially implemented with the commercially available RCA CA3089E integrated circuit. Although the CA3089E is primarily intended for use with quadrature detector systems, it includes basic blocks useful in phase-locked loop demodulators as well. These blocks are limiter 13, phase detector 21, and amplifiers 60 and 61.
the CA3089E phase detector 21 has a differential output provided to both amplifiers 60 and 61. Amplifier 60 is effectively of the transconductance type, that is, it supplies an output current varying in accordance with its input voltage. Therefore, its input to output voltage gain is proportional to load resistor R1 of the loop filter current.
In order to prevent objectionable noise from reaching the receiver output a noise muting circuit is included in the embodiment of FIG. 1. During the reception of low level signals, the high frequency noise component of the output of phase detector 21 increases. This output is amplified by amplifier 61. Filter 31 selects a high frequency component and applies it to noise amplifier 32. The amplified signal is coupled to noise detector 33 which provides at its output a DC voltage proportional to the input noise amplitude. When the noise amplitude is excessive, the DC voltage serves to disable gate 34, thereby preventing the demodulator output from reaching the demultiplexer and following receiver stages.
One advantage of phase-locked loop demodulators is that they possess a more narrow noise bandwidth than other types of demodulators. This results in a higher signal-to-noise ratio in the demodulated output. Although this feature is obviously desirable, it complicates the design of noise muting circuits to the extent that the low noise level at the demodulator output necessitates additional noise amplifiers in order to activate the muting circuit. The loop filter circuit of FIG. 2 circumvents these disadvantages. In FIG. 2 circuit components that can have a form identical to that of FIG. 2 retain their reference numerals. In this aspect of the invention, the positions of C1 and R2 are reversed, R2 being connected between a terminal 27 and circuit ground. A high-frequency noise signal is taken from terminal 27 and applied to the noise-muting circuit.
An analysis of the loop frequency response shows that the transfer function related to the control signal at terminal 26 has a lowpass characteristic with a 3db cutoff frequency related to the loop natural frequency Wn. For a loop with a damping factor equal to 0.5, the 3db cutoff frequency is theoretically equal to 1.82 times Wn.
Reversing the positions of R2 and C1 in the loop filter circuit, that is, having C1 connected to the VCO input and R2 to circuit ground, provides a signal at terminal 27 described by a transfer function having bandpass characteristics with a center frequency at approximately Wn. For the components shown in FIG. 2, the center frequency is approximately 75 KHz. It is desirable to have the input to the noise muting circuit have a bandpass characteristic slightly outside the frequency range of the baseband signal. This obviates the possibility of the muting circuit being activated by the desired baseband signal or by adjacent channel or other spurious signals present at the demodulator output. Prior art phase-locked loop demodulators with an equivalent noise bandwidth provide a lower level noise signal to the muting circuit. In order to enhance the noise output, such demodulators typically broaden the loop noise bandwidth, thereby degrading receiver sensitivity. The loop filter circuit of FIG. 2 maintains a minimum noise bandwidth while simultaneously providing a noise signal having a frequency response desirable for use with muting circuits.
An additional feature of the circuitry of FIG. 2 is the utilization of the DC controlled muting capabilities of amplifier 61. The high frequency noise signal is taken from terminal 27, amplified by noise amplifier 32, rectified by noise detector 33, and applied to the muting input amplifier 61. The demodulated output of amplifier 61 is filtered by R3 and C3 and applied to the demultiplexer for further processing.
In situations where it is either undesirable or unnecessary to use the muting feature of amplifier 61, the demodulated output may be taken at terminal 26 and applied to a separate noise gate.
Accordingly, novel circuitry pertaining to phase-locked loop demodulation in broadcast stereophonic receivers has been illustrated and described. In addition to providing optimum stereophonic separation, the circuitry develops a suitable high frequency noise signal with a minimum of additional amplification and filtering. Clearly this circuitry has analogous utility in other types of receiving systems.
While there has been shown and described what are at present considered the preferred embodiments of the invention, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made therein without departing from the scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.

Male Promiscuity Boosts Role of Chance in Sex Chromosome Evolution
Thu, 19 Mar 2015 15:02:31 +0000
Humans, like all mammals and birds, determine sex with chromosomes. Whether a fertilised egg develops into a male or female depends on what chromosomes it carries Scientists have long recognised that genes evolve a little differently on the sex chromosomes, and recent research in GEE suggests this may be due to differing patterns of inheritance […]

Sloths Move Slow, Evolve Fast
Wed, 11 Mar 2015 18:20:41 +0000
Sloths might be notorious for their leisurely pace of life, but research published last year shows they are no slow coaches when it comes to evolution. Sloths, as we know and love them, are small, slow-moving creatures found in the trees of tropical rainforests. But modern sloths are pretty odd compared to their extinct relatives. […]

As well as revealing the evolutionary origins of modern fission yeast, the new study published in Nature Genetics this month shows how techniques developed for detecting […]

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
10 Feb 2008 21:04 GMT | Sport, Cameroon, Egypt
Champions: Egypt captain Ahmed Hassan holds the trophy aloft [AFP]Egypt won its sixth Africa Cup of Nations title, whilst defending its title, by beating Cameroon 1-0 in the final.
Mohamed Aboutreika scored the only goal in the 77th minute of a tightly fought contest, converting Mohamed Zidan's cross for his fourth goal of the tournament.
It was a crucial error from captain Rigobert Song that led to Aboutreika's goal.
The Cameroon captain had two chances to clear the ball but instead got tangled in a needless duel with Zidan and lost the ball.
Zidan squared it perfectly and Aboutreika finished powerfully in the bottom right corner.
Realising his error, Song pulled his shirt into his mouth and pointed to the skies, as if seeking forgiveness.
Goalkeeper Carlos Kameni ran over and comforted Song.
Cameroon struggled to get shots on goal and there was no player on hand to turn home Stephane M'Bia's cross in the 83rd.
Song had a chance in injury time but headed Geremi's cross over.
Egypt dominated the second half, negating the threat from Eto'o, who received little quality possession and failed to score for the third straight match.
Hosni Abd Rabou hit the post with a header from Amr Zaky's cross in the 62nd as the Indomitable Lions tired.
Kameni burst into tears at the final whistle and had to be comforted by Eto'o.
Defender Augustin Binya dropped to his knees and gazed into the distance as Egypt's players rolled on the floor and hugged in celebration.
Pfister selected Joel Epalle and Alain Nkong in his starting lineup, while Tchato replaced the suspended Andre Bikey.
Bikey was sent off in the 1-0 semifinal win over host Ghana, during which match Epalle helped create Nkong's goal.
Egypt attack from the outset
Early pressure from Egypt meant Kameni had to save Sayed Moawad's long shot in the 10th, and Kameni was almost lobbed moments later when his poor clearance landed at Aboutreika's feet.
Pfister was forced into an early change when Alexandre Song limped off in the 16th and was replaced by Augustin Binya.
Egypt's goalkeeper Esam al Hadary, left, and Mohamed Zidan enjoy the moment [AFP]Cameroon's first chance of the match came in the 18th, but Geremi's free kick from 30 metres was saved by Egypt goalkeeper Essam El Hadary.
Cameroon looked solid in the middle, but Egypt often found outlets down each flank.
Eto'o at last found some space in the penalty area but could not guide his shot on target in the 36th.
A minute later, Egypt's Emad Motaeb only had Kameni to beat, but the goalkeeper brilliantly blocked his shot.
With Egypt dominating the second half, but unable to break down Cameroon's stubborn defense, coach Hassan Shahata brought on Zidan in the 59th in what proved ultimately to be a masterstroke.
Cameroon coach Otto Pfister had been trying to become only the second German to win the African title.
It was his second attempt after leading Ghana to the 1992 final against Ivory Coast.
Winfried Schafer won the 2002 title with Cameroon.

Talk:Affair of the Diamond Necklace
|WikiProject France
|(Rated Start-class, Low-importance)
|WikiProject Women's History
|(Rated Start-class, Low-importance)
The article states: "The police set to work to find all her accomplices, and arrested the prostitute Nicole Leguay d'Oliva and Rétaux de Villette, who confessed that she had written the letters given to Rohan in the queen's name." But Rétaux de Villette is male, so who is the "she" that confessed to writing the letters? If it's Nicole Leguay d'Oliva, the sentence needs to be recast. Or if it's de Villette, then the "she" needs to be changed to "he." Psurajit (talk) 20:38, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
Request for translation[edit]
Could someone please translate or place the words 'soi-disant' into context from this sentence:
A descendant of a bastard of Henry II of France, Jeanne de Valois, after many adventures, had married a soi-disant comte de Lamotte, and lived on a small pension which the king granted her.
And 'coup de theatre' from this sentence:
Then followed a coup de théatre.
Thanks, hdstubbs
soi-disant: 'self-styled' i.e. someone who called himself a count (comte) but wasn't really.
coup de theatre: a dramatic turn of events.
--Jack Upland 07:46, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
At the moment, the article uses both Commonwealth English (eg 'favourite') and American English (eg 'jeweler'). According to the Manual of Style, it should be written in one version of English or the other, not a mixture. I don't know which it should be in so am unwilling to make changes. Help please! 126.96.36.199 12:14, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
Possible Error[edit]
There is a link regarding a sentencing "to the galleys". The Galleys it links to is an article on Greek/Roman/Egyptian and late Byzantium Galleys, which I'm pretty sure is not the intent of the link or the meaning behind the legal judgement. Could someone more familiar with this piece link it to the right place or include a footnote or stub about the meaning of it? Joeteller (talk) 21:27, 29 November 2007 (UTC)joeteller
The image of Jeanne de Valois- Saint-Remy should be placed on her article as well. I don't know how to upload images to articles, but if someone who does could please put the image on the Jeanne of Valois-Saint-Rémy article, it would help the article.--jeanne (talk) 06:25, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
I've changed the various entries of "jeweller" and "jewellry" to "jeweler" and "jewelry". The dictionary lists the "double-L" variants as secondary; also, a Google count shows 179 million hits for "jewelry" as opposed to 4 million for "jewellry". I realize either spelling is acceptable, but the use of the secondary seems likely to distract many readers from the text. SteveStrummer (talk) 21:46, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
Citations needed[edit]
Some of the unsupported claims in the "Background" paragraph are documented in Madame Campan's "Memoirs of the Court of Marie Antoinette, Queen of France", but I don't know how to add footnotes.
"du Barry was banished from court by his successor" -> Campan, chapter IV "the Queen refused it with the statement that the money would be better spent equipping a man-of-war" -> Campan XII "The Queen again refused" -> Campan XII — Preceding unsigned comment added by 22.214.171.124 (talk) 15:04, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks. We would need the edition and year of publishing of the book as well as the exact page numbers as well, that way it is easier for interested readers to verify the citation themselves. If you can provide that information I will be happy to add the citation. --Saddhiyama (talk) 15:36, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

Hi Tom. Just wanted to let you know that we had a server go down last week. On a Sunday evening, your staff switched us to the cloud and had us back up and running in no time. They helped me with the purchasing specs for a new server and then did the switchover this morning. During the whole process, we had less than an hour downtime and only missed a sale or two. The tech support was fantastic. I know I'm going to miss a name or misspell one but a big thank you to Jonathan, Alex, Justin, Kristy and …... You and your company really know how important it is to stay "up and running" and do all of this with class and professionalism. I can't thank you all enough for making our lives easier!!

From today's CPS In-Box:
The town of Braintree is in the process of fighting Active/Golf Channel over the terms of the termination of our contract. Keeping that in mind, our legal counsel has asked me to inquire as to exactly what Club Prophet's termination policy is, in the unlikely event that we have to part ways in the future. Our legal folks, as well as the golf course staff, need to be fully aware of what these terms are. From all that I can tell, our contract states that you would need a 30 day written notice before termination would take place. Is that an accurate statement, Tom?
Aside from that issue, I'd like to mention what a pleasure it has been to work with so many folks from your organization. Everyone has been as pleasant as they are professional making this transition a true pleasure. I'm not sure what I'm enjoying most, working side by side with your techs or the quality and functionality of your software. You have no idea how much our team is looking forward to working with your system.

After using EZlinks for ten years , Club Prophet made the transition to their POS system seamless. The Golf industry will eventually come to their senses and eliminate all 3rd Party POS providers and jump on the Club Prophet train. Can I buy some Stock ???
