AG300 200W 3-Way Acoustic Guitar Amp with Digital Effects
Out of stock
The AG300 Acoustic Guitar Amp with Digital Effects offers state-of-the art performance for the serious acoustic artist. Matching the aesthetic of your acoustic instrument, the rich natural tones are delivered from our larger, yet still compact 3-way acoustic amplifier, featuring a horn loaded 12", 6.5" and titanium tweeter. The bigger sound from the horn loaded 12" provides 3dB more output over the AG200, while maintaining its crystal-clear highs, sweet mids and broader bass range. The deep bass performance is designed for all bass instruments, including the cello and upright bass. The high headroom 200w internal amp (250w with 8 ohm extension) becomes even a greater advantage when amplifying bass instruments, from which the high power maintains the integrity of your sound from 3 channels. So whether you're using nylon, steel, gut, silver or silk-wound strings that are picked, plucked, strummed or bowed, the true fidelity of your instrument is faithfully reproduced. Add the lush ambient effects to the high string definition and you'll get a sound that's naturally pleasing to the ear. The light weight, premium features and rugged construction, including the exclusive "lock-in" AC cord, will make the AG300 an even greater asset, considering its ability to amplify bass instruments.
The rich brown finish compliments the acoustic decor and the solid multi-ply enclosure is strong, while maintaining its compact size. The horn loaded 12", which is angled to the floor, adds to the bass performance while reducing the overall height of the enclosure, keeping it compact and light weight, weighing in at only 31 lbs. The resonant-free construction offers solid performance, which adds depth to all instruments. The standard finish is Brown Marvelon (as pictured), but is available in other colors on special order.
3 Full Featured Channels
Each channel offers the flexibility of XLR inputs, plus instrument inputs. Channel 1 and 2 inputs are specifically designed to work equally well with piezo or magnetic pickups, and feature a HI-Z impedance switch to bring out the full tonal range of passive pickups. A GAIN switch matches low sensitivity pickups. The +48V phantom power switches on Channels 1 & 2 eliminating external power supplies required for condenser mics, active pickups or active direct boxes. Channel 3 may be used to mic an instrument or vocals, and the 1/8" jack serves as an input for your MP3 music source. A convenient USB charging port keeps your player going without having to worry about the battery in your portable device.
3 Band EQ & Feedback Control
Each channel incorporates their own active LO & HI (bass & treble) controls designed for natural sounding, powerful tone shaping. Channels 1 and 2 also feature MID Parametric EQs with a frequency sweep control that's most effective for acoustic instruments. The boost/cut level controls permit broad mid shaping. The powerful cutting ability of the MID Parametric EQ extends control over acoustic feedback by using the sweepable FREQ filter.
Dual Effects plus Effect Loop
The onboard dual DSPs offer lush effects for each channel featuring echo delay, reverb and chorus. Each channel has its own two-way level control allowing you to select Effect 1 or 2. The Master Effect 1 & 2 controls select the effect type, adjust time, decay, regeneration and speed settings with separate level controls for blending effects 1 & 2 into the overall mix. The FS22 footswitch jack allows you to switch either effect on and off remotely. The external Effect Loop SEND & RETURN jacks are an added feature for other outboard processors.
Direct Output & Tuner/Phones jack
For bigger stages your soundman will the love the DIRECT OUT with LEVEL control and XLR balanced output for connecting directly to the house PA or recording interface without having to mic the amp. The DIRECT OUT includes the EQs and EFFECTS LOOP and bypasses the MASTER LEVEL, enabling amp level changes on stage without affecting the XLR output. The TUNER/PHONES jack enables instrument tuning or personal monitoring with headphones on loud stages or for quiet practice.
In addition to amplifying bass instruments, the AG300 also functions as a portable PA system thanks to its three-channel architecture, phantom-powered mic input, USB charging port and high power output. Sing and play guitar with backing tracks through one convenient amplifier with impressive power and tone.

More HUD funding for New York's homeless
By Jessica Bloustein
Albany, NY – Programs and services for the homeless in New York's Capital Region will receive nearly $3 million this year through the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development's Continuum of Care program and Emergency Shelter Grants. While the state's overall allotment--$142 million--is a 2% increase from last year, homeless service providers say it is not enough to effectively fight chronic homelessness.
WAMC's Capital District Bureau Chief Jessica Bloustein has more.

Gretzky rookie card goes for $94,163
In an online auction, the mint condition version fetches what's reportedly the highest price ever for a hockey card.

Wayne Gretzky is still setting records. His 1979 O-Pee-Chee rookie card fetched $94,163 (all dollars U.S.) in an online auction Sunday — reportedly the highest price ever paid for a hockey card. The winning bidder wasn't identified.
While Gretzky rookie cards are for sale in many places, it is rare to find one free of imperfections. The record-breaking card, sold by SCP Auctions, was graded 10, or mint condition, by Professional Sports Authenticator.
The most ever paid for any trading card was $2.8 million for a rare edition of Pittsburgh Pirates star Honus Wagner made in 1909. Gretzky and Bruce McNall once owned that card, paying $451,000 in 1991.

Canada's hero hacker unmasked
Dubbed "Citizen Tipster" by police, Brad Willman, spent night after night writing a Trojan Horse program that gave him complete control over every computer that downloaded it.
Alone and in the dark, he sat for up to 16 hours a day monitoring hundreds of targets, secretly reading their e-mail and tracking their every step online.
He started keeping files on the targeted users. He tracked them for almost three years --recording everything. The majority of his targets were ordinary people -- but some in the files included priests, social workers, soldiers, police officers and justice officials.
He catalogued each file by degree of risk and focused on suspected child-porn producers and molesters.
This was his life. He had no friends in school and skipped the prom. Even these days, his only entertainment away from the computer is going to the odd movie, alone.

�Your Catholic Voice 2004
Your Catholic Voice is actively involved in research. Our organization has discovered some startling statistics concerning Pornography use on the Internet. Below are some of these findings. Please pray for all those involved in Pornography�.
An 1,800 percent growth rate over five years is typically considered an online success story, but in this case, the statistic pertains to Web porn. N2H2 found that the number of pornography related Internet pages grew from 14 million in 1998 to roughly 260 million in 2003.
This data comes on the heels of news that Microsoft Corp. has close down chat rooms in 28 countries, in efforts to stem the presence of sexual predators of children, and Internet Filter Review found that the average age a child is first exposed to pornography online is 11 years old. Nearly all (90 percent) of kids aged 8-16 have viewed porn online, mostly while doing homework.
N2H2 identified an additional 28 million porn pages during the month of July alone, and the content filtering company expects the trend to continue, particularly since the industry is so profitable. In fact, Internet Filter Review finds that Internet pornography accounts for $2.5 billion of the $57 billion worldwide market.
Internet Filter Review estimates that there are 4.2 million porn Web sites � 12 percent of the total amount of sites � allowing access to 72 million worldwide visitors annually.
One-quarter of total daily search engine requests, or 68 million, are for pornographic material, where 40 million Americans are regular visitors.
Internet Porn Statistics
Daily pornographic e-mails........................2.5 billion
Average daily porn e-mails per user...........4.5
Monthly peer-to-peer porn downloads........1.5 billion
Men accessing porn at work.....................20%
Women accessing porn at work................13%
Adults admitting to Internet sex addiction...10%

For over 4000 years grapes have been prospering on the Salentine Peninsula, thanks to the devoted attention, the loyalty and the intelligence of the wine-growers. Without this ever constant care - due to the concern man has always had for wine as a noble drink and a devine gift -without the perseverance and the love for the soil, much land would have remained waste and covered by forests as it was thousands of years ago. The Phoenicians, and later the Greek, followed by Basilian monks, gave the grape and wine a flourisch which has no equal in the cultivation of other plants. The Taurino family have always been wine - growers and the beart of their farm is the estate "Notarpanaro" which in the last century was known as "Notare Panaro". In a legal deed dated November 22th, 1817 which concerned a change in tithes, one can read: "...the land Notare Panaro, part of the territory of Mesagne, is governed according to the tithe system. The tithe must be paid to the Most Exellent Family Mugnozza, and in their name Mrs. di Virgiliis changes the income of the foresaid one hundred and eighty - four and a half "tomoli", into a monetary rent, just as prescribed in the royal decrees of June 20 th, 1808 and January 17th,1810 Mr. Longo was offered, in the name of the foresaid, thirty silverducats a year, to be paid on July 15th every year.For the landowners this rent is to be free from any deductions or levies already decreed or still to be decreed by the Sovereign..." The struggle to bring the soil from what was once a wild and abbandoned land under cultivation,the planing of wineyards, the loving care for the grapes, the choice of the grapes and the wine-marking,is due to the Taurino family which has dedicated all its zeal to preserving the traditional skills in the blending of the wines, even if today modern process have been introduced onto the premises,where the very best wines if the Salento are kept.In a few years,with the passionate interest of the ancient vintners,receptive to technological process and keeping fait with traditional standars of quality, the Taurino family has succeeded in making the red, rose' and white wines of the Salento known and appreciated all over the world. These wines, which are of excellent quality include also those protected by the "certificate of controlled origin" granted to the lands where the "Brindisi" and "Salice Salentino" wines come from.

Michelle Brown is one of the Veterinary Assisting Academy teachers at South Tech Academy, whose goal is to teach her academy students the fundamentals of working in the animal field as a Veterinary Assistant. Her career did not begin as a teacher, but as a veterinary technician. She loved working with animals and taking care of them, but there was a point in her life when she wanted to try something new and challenging. "Teaching interested me and I wanted to challenge myself with something new," said Mrs. Brown. She has been working as a teacher for the past six years and has had some difficult situations in her life. "Getting through my first two years of teaching was challenging because of classroom discipline, grades, and it was a new environment for me. As a veterinary technician, I was in charge of myself, now as a teacher I am in charge of a whole group of students," explained Mrs. Brown. Her first set of students were not easy to cope with. She would constantly remind them that they had to behave and they tried to make her life a living hell by acting as if she were another teacher that would end up quitting on them. Her dedication and determination to help the Veterinary Assisting Academy and its students' growth is very admirable. Mrs. Brown has shown that when a person really wants something, do not give up until that goal is reached. She is one of the few teachers I have had in my high school years that gets me motivated to keep going and pursue my dream.

Acer's new 7-inch tablet has 3G and can make phone calls, but still aims for a budget market.
The Acer Iconia Tab 7, one of two new budget Android tablets from Acer: it's a little fancier than the Iconia One 7.
The Tab 7 has built-in 3G for making phone calls or connecting online, but I'm not sure I'd use it that way.
The Tab 7 from the side. It has an aluminum back.
A rear 5-megapixel camera sits in a more centered, smartphone-like orientation. That just encourages tablet photography.
There's a Micro SD card slot for expansion, along with 8 or 16GB of built-in storage.
The IPS display, however, still only has 1200x800 resolution.
The price in Europe will be around 149 Euros, but there's no U.S. price yet.
The bezel around the display is pretty hefty.

PoliticsDR Congo rebel jailed over village massacre ICC passes sentence on Germain Katanga for supplying weapons used in the 2003 massacre of hundreds of people in Bogoro. 23 May 2014 14:31 GMT | Politics, Africa Germain Katanga, a rebel commander from the Democratic Republic of Congo, has been sentenced to 12 years in jail by the the International Criminal Court for arming an ethnic group that carried out a 2003 village massacre."The chamber sentences Germain Katanga to 12 years in prison," presiding Judge Bruno Cotte told the Hague-based court on Friday in its second sentencing since opening in 2003. The almost seven years that Katanga has already spend in detention will be deducted from the sentence, he said. Katanga was found guilty of having procured the weapons - including guns and machetes - used in the massacre, but was cleared of direct involvement. He was found not guilty of rape, sexual slavery and using child soldiers.The Coalition for the International Criminal Court, a global network of civil society groups, welcomed the sentence as a step towards ending impunity. "With this sentence, victims of the attack on Bogoro village have obtained a measure of important justice for the crimes committed against them, their families and fellow citizens," said William Pace, the coalition convenor."Judges are now to decide on reparations that will help rehabilitate victims, their families and affected communities, allowing them to move forward from the crimes they suffered." But Catherine Denis, from the victims' legal team, said many victims were not going to understand how Katanga was given such a short sentence. Earlier in May, the prosecution asked that judges sentence Katanga to 22 to 25 years imprisonment, arguing the sentence had to be severe enough to provide justice to victims. The defence had sought leniency, providing evidence that Katanga had been involved in the local peace processes. Both the prosecution and defence have appealed against the conviction, and can also appeal against the sentence decision. Congolese authorities arrested and surrendered the 36-year-old to the ICC in 2007. The court's first conviction was passed in 2012, to DR Congo's Thomas Lubanga for using child soldiers.Source: Al Jazeera and agencies

People who lived through the Great Depression will tell you that your mindset and overall attitude was just as important (if not more so) than the specific money-saving strategies you used. It took a general mentality of penny-pinching and getting as much from what you had as possible. The best way to cultivate this mentality? Just pretend that you're broke. Even if you are not technically on the brink of financial ruin, pretending that you are will force you to make decisions differently and more prudently than if you assumed a more comfortable state of affairs.
Act like you're broke!

My introduction to the best-kept secret in fitness begins with a video that both inspires and intimidates me. I'm watching Pyrros Dimas, a three-time Olympic gold medalist from Greece, prepare for an Olympic weight-lifting competition. Pound for ripped pound, he's one of the strongest men on the planet.
Dimas is hoisting a bar so loaded with plates it looks like a truck axle with the tires attached. Again and again, he tosses the weight from the floor over his head in one quick, graceful motion, almost casually. And that's just his warmup. In competition, Dimas once lifted 474 pounds over his head--considerably more than twice his body weight of 187.
"That move's called a snatch," says my trainer, Shane Miller, as he rewinds the video. Miller is the head trainer at Carl and Sandra's Physical Conditioning Center, a gym in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where I've come for a 2-hour beginner lesson in Olympic-style weight lifting. It's not that I have any Olympian aspirations; I'm here because the Olympic lifts, as they're called, have no equal for developing speed, flexibility, and coordinated, total-body strength and muscle.
Interestingly, there are only two official Olympic lifts: the aforementioned snatch and the clean and jerk. For a visual, think of the snatch as a deadlift, barbell shrug, jump squat, and overhead squat performed consecutively in one fluid motion. The clean and jerk? A combination deadlift, upright row, front squat, and push press.
To underscore the effectiveness of these movements, consider that in the most basic measure of raw athletic ability--the vertical jump--Olympic weight lifters excel above all others. "When I worked at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, we measured vertical jumps of athletes in nearly every sport," says Michael Stone, Ph.D., a professor of exercise science at Eastern Tennessee State University. "And Olympic weight lifters had higher average jumps than all other groups--basketball players, gymnasts, sprinters, everybody."
Even the bulkiest Olympic heavyweights make astonishing leaps. Shane Hamman, the top American lifter in the history of the sport, weighs in at 350 pounds but boasts a vertical jump of 36 inches. Most NBA players top out at 34 inches. Not only can Ham-man dunk (he's 5'9"), he can also drive a golf ball 350 yards.
Then there's the pure vanity aspect. The Olympic lifters who aren't heavyweights are among the leanest--they're certainly the strongest--athletes in the world. One study of elite athletes found that Olympic weight lifters burn almost as many calories per day as marathoners do, and another reported that, on average, the lifters have as little as 5 percent body fat. Granted, these men are moving more than 175,000 pounds in a typical training week, but they also eat 6,000 to 8,000 calories a day.
So what is it about the Olympic lifts that works such magic on the human body? Most simply, they engage nearly all of your muscles to move weights farther and faster than conventional exercises. In fact, each repetition takes only a second or two from start to finish, which allows you to target your fast-twitch muscle fibers. These are the muscles with the greatest potential for size and strength, and the ones that are typically ignored in most men's weight workouts.
At this point, you might be wondering why, if these Olympic lifts are so great, you seldom see them practiced in gyms. The main reason is that they're technically difficult to perform, says Miller. Unlike a biceps curl, which requires little or no instruction to perform safely, these maneuvers call for a qualified instructor to teach you the nuances of each movement. Otherwise, you'll put yourself at risk of injury or, at the very least, perform them incorrectly. Which is, of course, why I've come to Miller's gym in the first place.
But while anyone can find an instructor at the USA Weight lifting Web site (www.usa weightlifting.org), it turns out there's also a shortcut to experiencing the Olympic advantage. You see, the unique aspects of the Olympic lifts consist of two distinct parts: the "pull" phase and the "catch" phase. During the pull, you explode upward, yanking the barbell off the floor and in front of your thighs, as if you were trying to jump out of the gym. In the catch, you quickly move your body under the bar and catch the weight on your shoulders or above your head.
"In my experience, 95 percent of the benefits of Olympic lifts come from the pull phase, which is the simplest part of the movement," says Alwyn Cosgrove, C.S.C.S., a certified USA Weightlifting coach in Santa Clarita, California. "And almost all of the technical difficulties occur during the catch phase." That's why Cosgrove has eliminated the catch portion of the movement from nearly all of his programs, and why you can forget about it, too. "Most men need to worry about the catch only if they're interested in competing in the sport," he says.
To enable lifters at any level to benefit from these exercises, Cosgrove has broken down the Olympic lifts into their four most effective movements. (See "The Olympic workout," on the next page.) Incorporate them into your routine and you'll build muscle and strength, burn fat, and boost sports performance faster than ever before. In fact, consider whatever you've been doing up till now preparation for your real workout.

Wali, who noted Provenance Hotels was looking to expand its presence in California, said, "The project is tailor made for our destination-driven approach to design, guest service and the overall hospitality experience." The project is anticipated for completion in 2016. Tags: • Hospitality • Acquisitions • Ownership • Management Companies • |
