Cardcaptor Sakura - Trust (Sub.DVD 11 of 18)
Title: Cardcaptor Sakura - Trust
Volume: Sub.DVD 11 / 18
Running time: 100
Distributor: Geneon Entertainment Inc.
Release date: 2002-09-10
Suggested retail price: $29.98
Age rating: PG-13
The Dream Card pulls Sakura into a prophetic dream where she meets another Sakura who tells her "Everything's going to be just fine." Of course, that only makes her nervous. However, not quite as nervous as Li gets after he is cast as the princess in Sleeping Beauty! With Sakura cast as the Prince, they resolve to do their best, but they certainly couldn't have expected the Clow Cards to attack them on stage. Still, their troubles are only beginning. The Light and Dark Cards warn Sakura about the arrival of Yue the Judge, just as Mei Lin is forced to return to Hong Kong!

Disappointed While the chair is small and just the size I need the quality of the workmanship is lacking. The fabric is crumpled on one arm and the other arm slopes down to 2 inches below the seat. The fabric, design, and color are good. The seat is very deep and my feet lack 4 inches from touching the floor. I bought it because it was small and would be a better fit for a shorter individual. I am disappointed. Not at all comfortable to sit in.

comfy attractive chair with very low arms I ordered 2 chairs and they arrived without a scratch and very quickly. Fabric is soft almost chenille-like. Background brown is darker than image which I prefer and beige flowers are lighter. Gives the chair a bit more pop. Brown background has a mottled quality perhaps due to fabric or intent of designer so the dark brown background has a textured look to it and a softer tone. (i''m sure that's clear to no one.) Dimensions are mostly correct, but you may want to know seating is at most 21 inches wide by 22 inches deep. Legs are 12 inches and the seat is 18-19 inches from the floor. Seating cushion is firm but comfy. Back is also a comfortable angle and high enough for me at 5' 10" and top of back reaches my shoulder blades. My one real complaint is that the arms are so low that they are decorative and no adult could use them to rest their arms even slouching. These 2 are in my living room and so its not a real problem, but if you thought this might be a BR reading chair, you might try something else. Fabric pattern is same style for both chairs but location of flowers, etc differ which I prefer so they don't look cookie cutter. There is a zipper down the middle of the back of each chair covered by a wide easy to see fabric cover. Wish it were more subtle. All in all chair has an attractive quiet design but not silent or the furniture equivalent of wallpaper. Chairs are comfy for everything but your arms and appear sturdy enough to handle real use.

Espresso Chair Chair looks fantastic. Love them! Found the scale a little small compared to the bench I have by the table, but that is my own fault as I didn't measure out the dimensions before I ordered them. They are great around the kitchen table. Great height. Very comfortable. Works with kids if they spill as they do not show spills!

Fed Gives ERP A Shot In The Arm

PS4 News
Housemarque working on Resogun DLC and another unannounced PS4 title
Good news everyone!
Housemarque has revealed two rather happy pieces of news.
Firstly, they are working on some undisclosed downloadable content for their awesome PS4 launch title Resogun. Hopefully this will add more planets and possible game modes to what is the standout PS4 launch title.
Secondly, they are working on another unannounced title for the PS4 which is very intriguing.
The news appeared in the comments section of one post on the Resogun Facebook page when a fan asked about them bringing the game to the PS Vita.
Thanks IGN.

post #16 of 294/11/11 at 6:09pmGear mentioned in this thread:
Well, except for headphone amps are stupid expensive for what you get. I have plenty of stereo power amps and I can pickup more for low cost - but I bet it's $200-$300 for an entry headphone amp. I don't see any reason to spend an exorbitant amount on something I can only use with headphones whereas any of my stereo amps can drive headphones just as easily as a pair of speakers. Besides I get most of my amps used locally, guarantee I'll never find a used headphone amp locally...

Nice score...particularly at $10.
I had a pair for about two years, and sold it when my current gear wasn't a good match. I've regretted it ever since.
I'd recommend a powerful HEADPHONE amp to drive them. I'd used a RSA XP-7 and a Corda Pre-Head with good results. I found with more power that the soundstaging really opens up with more power. When under-driven, they tend to sound flabby. I think that the electrets seem to have a lot more sparkle when driven well.
What makes headphone amps so special - other than being small and generally setup with connections that make sense for headphone use? I just have a hard time seeing how a 100 or 85 watt per channel amp won't drive a pair of headphones with great ease. I never heard a difference between any amp on a pair of speakers and I listened to amps which one would say "Oh clearly this amp will be better" and I heard nothing. I just don't know if I'd hear it, maybe some can - maybe it's better that I can't. It's sure a lot cheaper that way!
post #20 of 296/3/11 at 8:37pmI add my congratulations to Senor Morden for his lucky score.
On amplification: is the headphone-driving system in a stereo amplifier necessarily the same power and quality as the rest of the amp? What about the pot that regulates the juice to the headphone jack? Is it the same quality as the potentiometer in a good dedicated headphone amp? I think these are issues hinted at in the skepticism above.
I frankly don't know, but suspect the quality could vary a great deal from amp to amp or brand to brand. Power is only one of quite a few pertinent elements.

there is no way you be driving more then 2-5ws into any headphone unless you want your hearing to suffer. i never used any of your amps but the stereo amps' wpc has nothing to do with how it will perform with the headphones. the headphone jack on stereo amps has resistors between the speaker power amp section and headphone out so you are getting no where near the full power of the amps power amp section. if you want to get the full force from the power amp section you'll have to rewire your headphones making them balanced and hook them up to the speaker outputs in the back but most of the time if not careful you can blow your ears and the drivers so always keep volume at zero cause even at zero you'll get enough volume headroom.
i think the k340's use a 4 conductor cable so you can strip them and hook them straight to the speaker outputs.post #22 of 296/4/11 at 5:13am- svyr

=( tried my new pair of K340 from a class-a 20w speaker amp wink loaned me... It sounds like utter cow manure. (the amp is fine and drives K1000 beautifully)
The mids are colored, the bass is boomy but not at all deep, the highs are dim/grainy. (same with my small tube amp and all the other amps I own)
Hate to be on the wrong side of YMMV...I remember my old pair being a lot better, or maybe my other HP being a lot worse

I own a nice pair of K340's, and they are really good sounding cans. I have trouble getting them to really fit me right, and so I don't actually play them that much, but I swore to myself after buying and selling and then rebuying K340's 4 different times that I would never sell the set I have now
by the way they sound spectacular from the headphone out of my Pioneer SX-1250 and SX-1980 vintage 70's receiverspost #25 of 296/6/11 at 12:51pm- rhythmdevils

Looks like the fit problems are pretty common then. I got mine to fit better by putting two thick felt spacers in the space between the back of the cups and the bottom of the circular part of the headband assembly to force the cups to angle as much as possible, and then I also put an inch or so long piece of that self adhesive door insulation foam (they come in rolls of thin strips) between the pad and screen on the bottom side, so that the pad is thicker on the bottom. These two combined makes it so the pads meet my head under my ears instead of hanging off. But they're still really floppy.

Yeah, the drivers in the K340 are great. The headband and housing assembly, not so much.
Problem is, I had several versions that were modded to try to address this, and none of them sounded as good as the pair I have now, which I bought NOS.

KT88 sells a really fine set of pads for the K340 that are larger and softer than the OEM. They make the K340 considerably more comfortable for long listening sessions. He doesn't always have them, but they are well worth the modest cost. This is my 3rd pair of K340s and if I had the pads on my first set, I would likely still own them.

Don't they give them more treble presence? I used them on my K240 and they lightened the bass up a bit and brought out the treble, which was a nice FR change for the Sextetts, but the treble isn't clean enough on them to want much more than the stock pads offer. IMO
But the K340 already has a bit too much treble for me.

ABSTRACT: Lung cancer has been the most common death causing cancer in the world for several decades. This study is focused on the metabolite profiling of plasma from lung cancer (LC) patients with three control groups including healthy non-smoker (NS), smokers (S) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients (COPD) samples using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) in order to identify the comparative and distinguishing metabolite pattern for lung cancer. Metabolites obtained were identified through National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) mass spectral (Wiley registry) and Fiehn Retention Time Lock (RTL) libraries. Mass Profiler Professional (MPP) Software was used for the alignment and for all the statistical analysis. 32 out of 1,877 aligned metabolites were significantly distinguished among three controls and lung cancer using p-value ≤ 0.001. Partial Least Square Discriminant Analysis (PLSDA) model was generated using statistically significant metabolites which on external validation provide high sensitivity (100%) and specificity (78.6%). Elevated level of fatty acids, glucose and acids were observed in lung cancer in comparison with control groups apparently due to enhanced glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, lipogenesis and acidosis, indicating the metabolic signature for lung cancer.Scientific Reports 02/2015; 5:8607.

ABSTRACT: The etiology of Keshan disease (KD), an endemic myocardiopathy in regions of China, is largely unknown. To show the protein changes in serum from KD patients versus controls and idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDCM) and to search specific biological markers for differential diagnosis for KD. Serum of 65 patients with KD was compared with 29 patients with IDCM, 62 controls from KD areas and 28 controls from non-KD areas by ClinProt/MALDI-ToF technique. The genetic algorithm, quick classifier algorithm and supervised neural network algorithm methods were used to screen marker proteins and establish diagnostic model. Thirty-four differential peaks were identified in KD patients compared with the healthy controls from non-KD areas. Thirty-eight differentially peaks were identified in KD patients and controls from KD areas; and sixty-seven differentially peaks were identified in patients with KD and patients with IDCM. We believe that marker protein peaks screened in KD patients, healthy controls and IDCM patients may provide clues for the differential diagnosis and treatment of KD.The Protein Journal 05/2014; 33(4).

ABSTRACT: Recent developments in mass spectrometry have introduced clinical proteomics to the forefront of diseases diagnosis, offering reliable, robust and efficient analytical method for biomarker discovery and monitoring. MALDI-TOF is a powerful tool for surveying proteins and peptides comprising the realm for clinical analysis. MALDI-TOF has the potential to revolutionize cancer diagnostics by facilitating biomarker discovery, enabling tissue imaging and quantifying biomarker levels. Healthy (control) and cancerous tissues can be analyzed on the basis of mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF) imaging to identify cancer-specific changes that may prove to be clinically useful. We review MALDI-TOF profiling techniques as tools for detection of cancer biomarkers in various cancers. We mainly discuss recent advances including period from 2011 to 2013.Journal of pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis 03/2014; 95C:245-255. DOI:10.1016/j.jpba.2014.03.007 · 2.83 Impact Factor

School briefs - Holman Middle School
November was a busy time of year at Holman Middle School. For the third year in a row, Holman hosted an author visit. This year, Donna Jo Napoli visited our school on Nov. 2. She presented a writing workshop in which students worked on their fictional writing skills, and she talked to students from around the county during a school-
wide assembly. Holman also was excited and proud to honor our veterans at our annual Veterans' Day assembly on Nov. 9. Students invited family members, and guest speaker Staff Sergeant Brian Fields gave an inspiring keynote presentation. Students are currently raising money for the Henrico Christmas Mother organization by buying tickets to vote for a teacher who will dress up as a can of spam. The third-annual powder puff game was also held on Nov. 16, and it was a great way to have fun and help the community. This flag football game is for seventh and eighth-grade girls, and all participants, as well as faculty members, had the opportunity to purchase a t-shirt, with proceeds going to the Central Virginia Food Bank. The girls also were encouraged to bring in canned food to donate to the food bank. The eighth grade won the game once again and maintained its winning title! Holman has had a very eventful month, and we are looking forward to the holiday season. The Husky pack is on the move! |

Today's managers are so much more than simple caretakers. Self-storage managers are responsible for a facility's marketing, daily and monthly maintenance, signage, security, renovations, curb appeal, sales, customer service, site inspections, lien sales and auctions, community relations, website, ancillary services and products, and more. Day-to-day self-storage operation requires a different set of skills that includes the handling of operational essentials, customer-service savvy, phone etiquette, legal know-how, and sales and marketing finesse. Managers must define their markets, determine rental rates and concessions, deal with the media, choose effective advertising, and understand online marketing all while keeping an eye on the facility's bottom line.

ALEX BRUMMER: Adding to Spain's debt will take it to 100% of GDP
With the £80billion loan agreement for Spain, the eurozone countries have moved from sticking-plasters to larger cold compresses.
But in euroland it is not possible to heal one nation's problem without it causing contagion elsewhere. In the case of Spain, the idea of a condition-free loan from the euroland 'firewall,' with its assets of £600billion, looks simple enough.
But the fact that Spain is avoiding direct International Monetary Fund intervention and outside interference in its decision-making will give heart to radical parties in Greece, where there are elections this coming weekend, and will rankle with Ireland and Portugal.
Loan: The bail-out for the Spanish banks may not be quite the get-out-of-jail card that prime minister Mariano Rajoy portrayed it to be, says Brummer
It may also be seen by voters in France, who are now expected to give
the socialist parties a majority in Parliament, as part of the route
away from austerity to growth related policies.
But closer examination suggests that
the bail-out for the Spanish banks may not be quite the get-out-of-jail
card that prime minister Mariano Rajoy portrayed it to be.
Certainly Spain and the euroland
countries have learned something from past measures to deal with the
euro crisis. There is no substitute for overwhelming force.
The IMF measured the gap in the
capital of the Spanish banks to be £30billion and the rescue is more
than twice that, giving the authorities a useful wind break.
But as a loan to Spain, rather than a direct injection of capital into
the Spanish banks (the IMF's preferred solution), it will add up to 10
percentage points to Spain's debt to gross domestic product ratio,
lifting it to around 100 per cent by 2015.

That may be lower than other heavily indebted G7 countries like Italy and Japan, but will be tricky for a country like Spain that runs a current account deficit to finance the shortfall, especially if foreign investors are still running scared.
There are also no guarantees that the money will be spent wisely.
The appalling handling of the Bankia
crisis, and the crony-capitalism among the cajas, the discredited
savings banks, provides no confidence that Spain will do what is
necessary by taking the faulty banks fully into public ownership and
It will also face the British problem
of banks trying to do two things at once: shrink their balance sheets
while keeping the wheels of commerce going.
It may well be that the Spanish loans will be seen as a turning point
for the eurozone.
The moment at which Angela Merkel's
policies of self-reliance and frugality, both excellent values, met
realpolitik and the potential for depression.
The markets that initially roared
ahead in Monday trading seem unsure. Still £80billion here and
£80billion there and the Brussels/Frankfurt will soon be talking about
real money.
Vittorio's £14m value at Vodafone
Vodafone is one of a handful of
British companies to lever itself into a global leader over the last two
Its success on several continents does not, however, give the
Newbury-based enterprise the right to run roughshod over its host
country. The intellectual founder of the group, the late Sir Ernest Harrison of Racal, would not approve.
The company is under attack on two
fronts. Firstly, there is the little matter of Vittorio Colao's total
remuneration that soared from £6.6m to £14m last year, including
bonuses. As successful as Colao may have been, the chief executive
cannot claim to be an entrepreneur in the image of Sir Martin Sorrell or
Mick Davis.
Secondly, and as worrying, Vodafone is rather too clever for its own good with its tax affairs. Its previous sweetheart deal with Britain's chief tax inspector David Hartnett is among the factors that cost the latter his job.
In India the company has found itself in almost permanent conflict with the authorities over tax liabilities. And here in the UK it has found ways of paying as little, if any, corporation tax as possible.
The pay and tax issues may look like mixing apples and oranges. But
investors may conclude over-rewarding tax avoiders does not represent
good governance.
Why I back Thorntons return to family values
One of the great mysteries is why,
when Cadbury was removed from the field of play as a British chocolate
champion, Thorntons was not able to fill the vacuum. Peter Thornton, grandson of the founder, thinks he knows why.
The quality ingredients and recipes
on which the firm's reputation was built, from its foundation in
Sheffield in 1911, have been messed with.
Moreover, the company's daft pricing strategy – under which the products
in its own stores are undercut by the supermarkets – has confused
consumers and cost it dearly.
Now the Thornton scion wants to buy the brand back. All chocoholics, including this writer, must unite behind his campaign.

Here's hoping everyone had a wonderful Christmas and is looking forward to a fruitful New Year. Instead of continuing to look back at the agricultural events of this past year, let's examine the benefits of snow for agriculture. While it makes travel difficult and causes headaches for many, including farmers and ranchers, snow is a necessary evil with many benefits for agricultural production.
As we head towards the end of the year and celebrate Christmas, it's a time for many to pause and reflect. With that in mind, let's take a minute to review some of the events and happenings over the last year. This list is in no way complete or in order of importance.
Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) still face challenges within the European Union; however, one Irish wheat farmer is optimistic change is on the way.
Acting Secretary of Agriculture, Jackie McClaskey has announced Jake Worcester has been hired as an assistant secretary.
This year has been monumental for Kansas Wheat organizations. The Kansas Wheat Commission and Kansas Association of Wheat Growers leadership came together to begin industry changing endeavors. Looking back at 2013, it will be remembered as one of the first steps taken in positioning Kansas as a national leader in the wheat industry. Here is the Kansas Wheat Year in Review.
Crews from the Kansas Geological Survey, based at the University of Kansas, will be in the western part of the state in early January measuring groundwater levels. The KGS and the Division of Water Resources (DWR) of the Kansas Department of Agriculture collect data annually to monitor the health of the region's aquifers.
Barton County Conservation District, Great Bend, is please to celebrate the success of their investment in educational programs provided by Kansas Foundation for Agriculture in the Classroom (KFAC).
The holiday season often means two things: time spent with family and friends and great food. This year, Sharon Davis, Manhattan based mother of two who works as the family and consumer sciences education consultant for the Home Baking Association recommends great ways to incorporate the two.
Hello winter! This year the cold season really has come in with a vengeance. With the third slick episode of the season already passed, I thought I would share a little information from K-State Research and Extension about ice melt and what chemicals are out there, how well they work and what, if any damage they can do to your home and property.
Kansas State University is receiving an initial five-year, $8.5 million award from the U.S. Agency for International Development, or USAID, to establish the federal government's new Feed the Future Innovation Lab for the Reduction of Post-Harvest Loss.
The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) will be conducting a sign up for the Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP) for new enrollments for federal fiscal year (FY) 2014. Starting today through Jan. 17, producers interested in participating in the program can submit applications to NRCS.
First, the plan was for this column to hopefully address what was in the new Farm Bill. Well, Congress has admitted that won't be happening anytime soon so let's examine where some common words used in agriculture came from. While the majority of the world has switched to the metric system of weights and measures, we have stubbornly clung to centuries old terms. The exception is in the area of farm machinery where much of the equipment used is made and/or sold overseas so there metric is the rule. Perhaps a major reason many of us past ...
Today more than 380 Farm Bureau members of Kansas wrapped up business for their farm organization after debating and adopting policy statements for 2014. These policies will now become the organization's roadmap for the 2014 legislative session.
Can you believe that April is already here? I swear I just put up my Christmas items a week ago! Well, April is going to be quite the busy month here for Extension! So this week, I thought I would remind you of several opportunities that will be taking place for the community.
Each day, farmers and ranchers pull on their boots, roll up their sleeves and go to work outside rural communities across Kansas. They perform a litany of chores – feeding and doctoring livestock, cultivating their crops, pulling maintenance on machinery, paying bills – you name it and farmers and ranchers do it.
It's Easter weekend and this past Thursday night saw some fairly severe weather in the area complete with power outages. Spring is really here, especially after the extremely warm temperatures this past week. Today is April 5, so area producers should have wrapped up side dressing the 2015 wheat crop and corn planters are being readied to begin planting shortly. Alfalfa is greening up and in some parts of the state, including some fields here, wheat producers are assessing winter survival. Since not a great deal is going on just yet, let's catch up on what is known.

Breast Implant Surgery
Implants: Usually Not a One-Time Thing
Can you guess what the most popular cosmetic surgery procedure is? If you guessed breast augmentation, you're right. But one thing that some women don't know is that breast implants aren't a one-time deal. They need to be replaced over time, or you could run into some pretty unpleasant health problems. Even before their recommended 10-to-15-year replacement time passes, some women run into trouble. Worst-case scenario, the implant ruptures, spilling saline or silicone into your body. Or scar tissue can form around the implants, causing disfigurement. In either case, the implants need to be replaced. This New York Times story examines the issue in detail. Tons of interesting stuff in here, including this:
"Your implants may last less than 10 years or more than 10 years, but when you start having problems with them, your health insurance is unlikely to cover the M.R.I. tests or the reoperations," said Carol Ciancutti-Leyva, the director of a 2007 anti-implant documentary called Absolutely Safe. "It can be a very expensive proposition, especially if you are young."
Another interesting tidbit: Doctors don't have to disclose information about how long implants may last. One woman quoted says that her doctor never told her she'd need to have "re-surgery." (Bitter surprise that was, I bet.) I've never really wanted implants, but the story is a must-read if you or someone you know is considering augmentation—or if you're just fascinated by the phenomenon, as I am.

Alan Whicker will resume his globetrotting ways for a new documentary
He is the man who brought far-flung corners of the world and the rich and famous into our living rooms in the days before mass travel.
Now, at the age of 83, Alan Whicker is to resume his globetrotting ways for a new documentary series.
The four-part BBC2 series, called Alan Whicker's Journey Of A Lifetime, will feature the best clips and memories from Whicker's World, where he famously caught his often extraordinary subjects off guard.
The presenter, who became well known for his immaculate dress sense, combined travelogues and social commentary during three decades of Whicker's World.
An insider on the show said: 'He's a national icon and is the originator of the great travel documentary. We see him at his best even though he is in his eighties. He opened up the world to the British public.'
The series, to be shown next year, will feature Whicker's interview with Peter Sellers in Beverly Hills in 1979, in which the actor predicted he was about to die.
Other iconic moments will include his encounter with Haiti dictator Papa Doc Duvalier, when Whicker was presented with a book of poems, and a rare interview with billionaire Paul Getty.
Among the places he will visit will be London, Venice, Hong Kong, Bali, Palm Beach, San Francisco and Beverly Hills.
Whicker will return to see Hollywood plastic surgeon Kurt Wagner, who practised his profession on his wife Kathy.
The presenter also goes back to see a group of women police officers in San Francisco, whom he first interviewed in 1979.
Whicker's World made its debut in 1959 and was last broadcast in the early 1990s. In 2004 he fronted a two-part documentary series, Whicker's War.
The presenter's popularity was such that an Alan Whicker Appreciation Society was formed, and he was impersonated by the Monty Python team in a 'Whicker Island' sketch in the 1970s.

Our current understanding of the operation of sexual selection is predicated on a sex difference in parental investment, which favours one sex becoming limiting and choosy over mates, the other competitive and nonchoosy. This difference is reflected in the operational sex ratio (OSR), the ratio of sexually receptive males to females, considered to be of fundamental importance in predicting the direction of sexual selection. Difficulties in measuring OSR directly have led to the use of the potential reproductive rates (PRR) as a measure of the level of investment in offspring of males and females. Several recent studies have emphasized that other factors, such as variation in mate quality and sex differences in mortality patterns, also influence the direction of sexual selection. However, as yet there has been no attempt to form a comprehensive theory of sex roles. Here we show that neither OSR nor PRR is the most fundamentally important determinant of sex roles, and that they are not interchangeable. Instead, the cost of a single breeding attempt has a strong direct effect on competition and choosiness as well as consistent relationships to both OSR and PRR. Our life history based approach to mate choice also yields simple, testable predictions on lack of choice in either sex and on mutual mate choice.
