Hey guys, what could I tap into for my amp's remote turn on wire? Also when I do tap into something, what size fuse would you recommend to fuse it with, because i know I need to fuse it to be safe but there is tiny amounts of power going through the remote wire so it looks as if I would need to use a tiny fuse. Thanks any help is appreciated.
Did the same with my amp. Just go to your local auto parts stores and pick up a three prong swith (+ in, ground, + out). Wire it up to your remote wire on your amp, mount it, and your good to go. Did this to my amp a year and a half ago and havent had any problems.
if your useing a factory deck i'd run a wire from the fuse box to a switch to use as the on off switch. just put a fuse inline and you should be fine.

Launch Radio playerCromwell Property Group [ASX: CMW], the ASX-listed property and funds manager, will spend up to $7.5 million for a 50 percent stake in New Zealand property manger, Oyster Group.
The Brisbane-based company paid $5 million up front for half of Oyster, with earn-outs of up to $2.5 million over the next two years, dependent on the New Zealand firm's financial performance, Cromwell said in a statement. Auckland-based Oyster has more than $650 million worth of properties under its management, including 18 retail buildings, 16 office buildings and eight industrial and carparking buildings. The remaining 50 percent stake will be retained by Oyster's directors, and as part of the transaction Cromwell's New Zealand-based director Michelle McKellar will become chair of the New Zealand manager.
"Despite our history, it has been a long time since we had any significant presence in New Zealand," Cromwell chief executive Paul Weightman said. "Recent economic data suggest New Zealand is entering a new period of strong, sustainable growth."
Cromwell's property portfolio is valued at A$2.3 billion and manages A$1.2 billion worth of assets, according to its website. The company has previously been owned by NZX-listed Corporate Investments in the late 1980s before changing its name to Westholme. It recapitalised and returned to the Cromwell name in 1998, but retained a number of New Zealand-based security holders from its Westholme business and corporate predecessors, the company said.
Cromwell's shares were unchanged at 99 Australian cents, and have risen 1.5 percent this year. The stock is rated an average 'buy' according to six analysts compiled by Reuters, and has a median price target of A$1.05.

In Reply to: Re: healthy breakfast cereal posted by Jeff Novick, MS, RD, LD, LN on April 25, 2008 at 8:50 pm:
is there a good source to find out how to make those into cereal? Do you just toast them in the oven, like toasting oats for granola, but without oil or sugar? puff them in an air popper, like to make puffed rice or barley? I could make a batch on the weekend and have it ready for the week that way, and when we're running late, they can take a baggie of it on the school bus. I sure don't want them eating school breakfast!

I can safely say this is an adorable Tillchard fanfiction. You had great description though it was more of Till's caretaking than Richard feeling ill, but the overall pampering that Richard gets from Till makes up for that.
The light banter that goes between the two is cute, and I like how Richard compares stage Till to home Till. The reader is able to see how sharply the two contrast, gives Till a realistic feel as a man. I will say the story was quite similar to the inspiration, but you can only write about someone being sick and being taken care of so many different ways. Besides that, it was truly a fluffy Tillchard and for that I am happy. I look forward to more fanfics from you. CommentsNo comments have been added yet. |

Once a team has a goal, it needs to figure out what measures, or metrics, are needed to track progress. Measurement is a critical part of testing and implementing changes. The right measures tell a team whether the changes it is making is actually leading to improvement.
The use of metrics answers the question, "How will we know that a change is an improvement?"
The more specific a goal is, the easier it will be to test with the Plan, Do, Study, Act cycle.
Here are some tips for measuring data:
It's useful to remember that different measures will reflect what is happening at different levels of the organization. "Outcome measures" reflect the experience of the member/patient. "Process measures" speak to how well or poorly a process is working. "Balancing measures" examine multiple parts of the larger system to see how different parts are affecting each other.
Teams can use these questions to help select an appropriate measure for a goal.
Outcome measures (voice of the member or patient)
Process measures (voice of how the process works)
Balancing measures (viewing system from different directions/dimensions)
Teams should also be aware that the data varies qualitatively. It's important to choose understand this variation—and they don't necessarily need research quality data to demonstrate the effectiveness of a change.
This is data generated for reporting purposes. Its characteristics are that it is:
Data for research must meet the "beyond doubt" test. By nature:
This data provides just enough information for team learning. It tends to be:

Of Openess and Distance: Trade Developments in the Commonwealth of Independent States, 1993-2002

This paper analyzes developments in the structure of trade in the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) during the transition decade, and finds that it changed less than in other transition economies. Trade openness of the CIS increased between 1993 and 1997, but has fallen to a lower-level plateau since then owing to regional and country-specific factors. These include slower progress in transition, geographic aspects, restrictions on trade, governance and corruption problems, weak infrastructure, lack of regional cooperation, and political conflicts. Regression results show that trade openness of the CIS countries would likely increase substantially if market-oriented reforms were pursued more vigorously.

On the 20th of June Messrs Hunter and Howell laid before the Governor in Council an Address with several Papers from the Inhabitants of Orange County who stiled themselves regulators. The Governor's Letter of the 21st June from the Council Chamber at Brunswick is declarative of the sense of that Board: This Letter was delivered to James Hunter the same day.
On the 6th July the Governor arrived at Hillsborough and waited in daily expectation of hearing that the above letter had hushed the clamor of Faction as it pointed out the truest and most effectual measures to redress every grievance of which the Insurgents complained However the Governor hearing that unlawful Assemblies of men were still frequently held in the Neighbourhood of Hillsborough and that his letter was disregarded, he on the 1st of August sent the late Sheriff of Orange to a meeting of the Insurgents who assembled at one George Sally's recommending to them by letter No.––to pay their Taxes.
On the 3rd of August the late Sheriff returned and reported to the Governor that the People (assembled to the number of near four hundred) unanimously refused to pay any Taxes and generally declared they would kill any man who should dare to distrain for their Levies as appears by the Depositions of Tyree Harris and Ransom Southerland.
On the 5th of August Messrs John Low and James Hunter waited on the Governor at Hillsborough with a letter which they delivered to the Governor Vide Letter No. 17. The Governor told the Messengers that he would send an answer to the Letter they then delivered to him on Wednesday the 17th August before which time he hoped to be able to consult His Majesty's Council on the Occasion.
On the 10th of August intelligence was brought to the Governor that upwards of five hundred men were assembled at Peed's in the evening of the 9th of August and that more men were continually coming in to join this Body: That their intention seemed to be to come into Hillsborough the 12th instant and if the requisitions they should make to the Governor, were not complied with, they would
then burn the Town, and take satisfaction their own way. The Governor then sent out several men to watch the motions of these Insurgents that he might be better informed if the above report was founded in reason. On the 11th of August at eleven at night an express came into Hillsborough, and informed the Governor that the Insurgents had advanced upwards of twenty miles nearer the Town, and had all rendezvoused at Simon Dixons within twenty miles of the Town, with a firm resolution of coming into Town the next day and to do mischief, and as a Testimony of such intentions, they gave notice to some families immediately to carry their wives and children out of Town. Upon this Confirmation of such wicked designs the Governor directed Colonel Fanning to provide expresses to send to as many Captains as he thought would be able to furnish any men the next day, for the preservation of the Town, and its Inhabitants. The Governor then sent written Orders to eight Captains of Companies to march in as many men as they possibly could the 12th instant. About evening of the 12th inst: Colonel Fanning mustered upwards of two hundred and fifty men about which time eight of the principal Insurgents came into Town to speak to the Governor; after they were introduced they told him they wished to have Peace settled in the County again, and if they could be satisfied all would be well—The Governor told them he had done his endeavors to satisfy them, as far as the Laws of the Country and his Duty to the King would permit him, and that he had pointed out to them the legal and most effectual measures to redress the Grievances of which they complained—They replied they wanted to have a settlement their own way, by the Register, Clerk of the County and Vestry, meeting a Committee of their Appointment for the stating all the County and Public Taxes—Such a conduct the Governor assured them was illegal, & would be attended with manifest inconvenience. That the Law was the only Channel to take cognizance of abuse in Office, and that if the Penalties were not found adequate to the nature of the Transgretion, the governor would give his aid to make the Laws more penal, but that he would never remain a calm spectator to see the Constitution of His Majesty's Government violated, and the Laws of his Country disobeyed—The Governor further told them that he had no objection to their seeing or obtaining Copies of the receipts or disbursements of the Church Wardens, or any information from the Public Officers of the County, or any other reasonable satisfaction, as it was a maxim of his Administration that there should be no secrets in any of the Public Offices of the Government. They then seemed better satisfied tho' they had not given the least satisfaction to the Governor They protested they had a great Difficulty, & for which they laboured very hard to persuade their men (as they called them) to go to their respective abodes before they had reeked their malice on the Town and Inhabitants of Hillsborough or words to that effect, after some other occasional discourse they withdrew.On Saturday the 13th August the Governor held a Council on the present exigency of affairs, Vide Minutes and Journals, and the letter bearing date the 13th of August sent by the advice of the Council to the Inhabitants on the South side of Haw river. This Letter was delivered to Mr Lea Sheriff of Orange the 16th instant with Orders to deliver it as directed on the 17th at George Sally's where the people were to assemble by the Governor's appointment.
On the 17th of August the Governor left Hillsborough in Company with Colonel Palmer and on the 18th in the evening was met near the Town of Salisbury by a great many gentlemen who welcomed his arrival with expressions of great satisfaction.
Fryday 19th gave Orders for Provisions and drink for the men of the Rowan Regiment on the 26th (the day of the Review) in the evening left Salisbury and halted at Major Fifers in Mecklenburg County.
Saturday the 20th halted.
Sunday the 21st the Governor attended divine Service when Mr Luther (a swiss) tho' a dutch minister recommended with warmth a due obedience to the Laws of the Country, and a union of heart to support the Peace and Tranquility of the Province—In the evening information was brought to Mr Fifer that two men from Orange County was in his neighborhood spreading through the Inhabitants the sedition that prevailed in the South part of Orange County. This day ordered Colonel Alexander and Major Fifer to provide Provisions and drink for the men at the review of the Mecklenburg regiment of militia.
Monday 22nd the Governor left Major Fifer's and lay at Captain Polks.
Tuesday 23rd reviewed the regiment about 900 men—Some objections being started by the enemies of their Country, against taking an Association Oath, and night coming on, as the regiment did not assemble till the afternoon, the Governor was prevented from ascertaining what men would go as Volunteers, he therefore ordered all
the Captains to wait on him at Major Fifer's on Saturday the 27th with their respective lists of volunteers, for which intent, he directed them to have private musters before that day. The Governor then returned to Captain Polks.Wednesday the 24th the Governor left Captain Polks and took up his quarters at Major Fifers.
Thursday the 25th the Governor returned to Salisbury when Lieutenant Colonel Frohock delivered him a letter from those who stile themselves Regulators bearing date the 19th of August. The Governor directed Mr Montgomery to provide dinner for the Field Officers, Captains and Gentlemen attending the review. Colonel Osborn waited on the Governor to receive his Orders in the conducting the Review.
Fryday 26th August. Eleven companies of the Rowan regiment marched into Town before 12 o'clock when the Governor ordered all the Captains and Field Officers to repair to Mr Montgomery's where he communicated to them the transactions that had passed between him and the Insurgents, at the same time that he read the several correspondence between them, except the Insurgents first address to the Governor and the Papers that accompanied them, which the time would not permit him to do. However the Governor explained the full extent and purport of them. The Governor also laid before these gentlemen the great necessity of a strict union of every honest man and well wisher of his Country at a juncture when the calamities of a civil war were impending. Colonel Osborn then spoke warmly in support of Government and the Liberties and Properties of the Inhabitants, which he said was in great Danger if these Insurgents should be able to overturn Hillsborough Superior Court. He then read a letter from four dissenting ministers directed to their Brethren the Presbyterians, wherein the wicked conduct and practises of the Insurgents were sensibly touched upon, the support of Government earnestly recommended and enforced—vide letter.
The Officers then desired to have a Conference among themselves and retired to a private room. In less than an hour they waited on the Governor again, when Colonel Osborn in the name of the whole returned the Governor their hearty thanks for the trouble he had taken to preserve the Peace of this Province, and told him it was at the request of those gentlemen that he assured the Governor they would unanimously assist him in the cause in hand with their utmost efforts. The Governor then marched into the field to review
the regiment; as he passed along the front of the regiment, he spoke to every Company explaining to them the danger this country was in from the rash, obstinate & violent Proceedings of the insurgents, and that if every honest man and man of property would not with fortitude stand up in support of their liberties and Properties, this Province would inevitably fall into a civil war. That he should have occasion for a body of men to preserve the Peace at the next Superiour Court of Hillsborough, which was threatened to be attempted under solemn Oath by the Insurgents—That for this service he should draft no men, but receive those only who turned out Volunteers That after the Battalion had fired and a Discharge of the Artillery The Governor should order all those who were willing to serve His Majesty King George and protect the Liberties of the Country to move out of their ranks and join His Majesty's union colours in the front of the regiment, accordingly as soon as the regiment had gone through their Fire by companies and the discharge of three pieces of artillery the Governor invited all His Majesty's Subjects, friends to the Liberties & Properties of their Country, to join the King's colours and immediately quitted his horse, took the King's colours in his hand, inviting the Volunteers to turn out to them. The first Company that joined the union Colours was Captain Dobbins', upon which the Governor took Captain Dobbins' Colours (each Company having a pair of Colours) and delivered the King's Colours into the hands of the ensign of that Company; congratulating Capt: Dobbins (who had been in service) on the honour he had obtained and merited. Other Companies immediately followed the first and in a few moments there was but one Company in the Field that declined turning out the Captain of which however honorably quitted his Company and joined the Kings Colours. Each Company as it joined the Colours was saluted with three huzzas and the whole with a discharge of the Swivel guns after which the men joined again in a battalion grounded their arms, went to the right about, and marched to refresh themselves with the Provisions His Excellency had provided for them. They were ordered to stand to their arms, when each man in the ranks had a drink of either Beer or Tody, to His Majesty's health and prosperity to North Carolina—It is to be observed that one Company (Captain Knoxes) did not turn out to join His Majesty's Colours as Volunteers but remained in their ranks and afterwards without partaking of the refreshments provided, marched out of the Field carrying that shame and disgrace with them, and the just contempt of the Regiment, which their conduct apparently incurred. The Battalion was then dismissed, and the Field Officers, Captains and Gentlemen waited on the Governor to dinner, where the health of His Majesty and the Royal Family, Prosperity to the Province and success to the Rowan and Mecklenburg Volunteers were drank. Before the Company broke up, the Governor acquainted Colonel Osborn in the presence of Captain Dobbins, and the rest of the Officers that he presented His Majesty's Colours to the Rowan Regiment of Militia, as an honorable Testimony of the loyalty of that Regiment and of the spirit they testified in turning out as Volunteers in the service of their King and Country and that in consideration of Captain Dobbins and his Company first joining the Union Colours, His Excellency desired and requested that Captain Dobbins Company might always carry and bring out of the Field the King's Colours and that the Ensign of the said Company should always carry those Colours whenever brought into the field. This mark of honorable distinction was gratefully received by the whole Company, particularly by Capt: Dobbins—The evening closed with great mirth and Harmony—This evening Mr Young and another gentleman, waited on the Governor from Captain Knoxe's Company, and in the name of the whole Company informed him they wished he might not take any umbrage by reason that Captain Knoxes Company did not turn out as Volunteers, that it arose not from disaffection to His Majesty's Government, or want of affection for the Liberties of their Country, but merely from a misunderstanding, as they believed of what the Governor had declared to them at the head of the Regiment, that they really understood that he said, that all who did not turn out as Volunteers should be considered as Regulators; that many of them being unable from various accounts and circumstances to march to Hillsborough; they esteemed it would have been dishonorable to have offered themselves as Volunteers, and afterwards declined going, and that upon that account they judged it most expedient to remain in their ranks. The Governor assured them their conduct had made a deep impression on his mind, as he considered the appearance of their conduct, carried the strongest marks of Disaffection both to their King and Country: That however in consideration of their apology he was willing to receive it, as a satisfaction, provided they produced a good list of Volunteers out of their Company, at the times the Captains of the Regiment were to return to His Excellency the returns of their Volunteers and that if their future Conduct and Actions demonstrated Principles different from the appearances of that Day—They then in Company with Lieutenant Colonel Frohock quitted His Excellency seemingly greatly satisfied.Saturday the 27th—The Governor ordered Mr Montgomery to provide Flower and Beeves to accompany the Rowan Volunteers to Hillsborough and to furnish waggons, ammunition &c The Governor also appointed the Captains of the Rowan Regiment to meet him at Salisbury the 3rd of September with their respective lists of Volunteers. In the evening he set out for Martin Fifers where he met the Colonel and Captains of the Mecklenburg Regiment who produced their respective lists of Volunteers, amounting to upwards of three hundred men, which number the Captains had reason to believe would be greatly increased before the day of March. The Governor desired the Colonel and Captains would meet him again on Fryday the second of September at Lieutenant Colonel Moses Alexanders.
Sunday and Monday the 28th and 29th The Governor halted at Major Fifer's.
Tuesday 30th The Governor accompanied by Colonel Palmer and Mr Fifer went to see where the Commissioners left off the Line that they run in 1746 between His Majesty and Earl Granville's District and found four Trees standing in a square Form marked with Notches and Blases, and on one of them the Letters G. R. These Trees were about five or six hundred yards to the Eastward of Cold Water Creek, and terminates upon the old Western Indian Path, upon the Eastern Bank of Cold Water, on a large (Gum it is thought to be) Tree the Letters W. C. (for William Churton) 1756 is marked. This Tree stands in the same direction with those Trees above described at five or six hundred yards distance from them.
Wednesday 31st. The Governor waited on Capt Barringer, a beautiful Plantation and skilfully managed particularly the meadow Land which produced excellent hay.
Thursday September 1st. Governor waited on Colonel Harris where he was hospitably entertained, this Plantation affords the most cheerful and extensive view at present in the County of Mecklenburg. In the evening the Governor went to Colonel Moses Alexanders.
Fryday 2nd September. Colonel Moses Alexander entered into bond to furnish Provisions and Waggons for the Mecklenburg Volunteers—The Governor sent a letter to Colonel Harris directing the Number of men and the time of March for the Mecklenburg Volunteers. The Captains of the said Regiment dined with the Governor this day, where every necessary instruction was given to them for the assembling and marching of their men from Major Fifer's the 12th instant. The Governor also informed Colonel Alexander what waggons and Provisions would be wanted to march with this Detachment. Two Waggons the Governor ordered from Major Fifer and Captain Polk to carry Liquors, This evening the Governor returned to Major Fifers.
Saturday 3rd September. The Governor gave Orders for 350 Haversacks to be made for the Volunteer Blues and as many blue Cockades. Set out about nine o'clock for Salisbury where he dined in Company with the Lieutenant Colonel and several Captains of the Rowan Regiment of Militia—To whom he gave similar Orders & Instructions to those he gave to the Mecklenburg Regiment, excepting that the March of the Rowan detachment, was fixed for Tuesday the 13th inst.
Sunday 4th September, 1768. Halted at Salisbury.
Monday 5th September. Remained at Salisbury. This evening Mr Henderson, Associate Judge, informed the Governor that the whole Body of Militia of Granville County was ready to march in support of Government. This day the Govr received a letter from Mr Hendrie, one of the Leaders of the Insurgents acknowledging the error of his Proceedings and requesting forgiveness for his conduct in the Disturbances.

Critical Essay by Agnes Irene Smith
SOURCE: "E. V. Lucas," in The Sewanee Review, Vol. 42, April, 1940, pp. 221-35.
In the following essay, Smith offers a reservedly positive assessment of Lucas.
In these hectic days, when the attitudinizing writer has invaded the pages of even the most conservative of our American magazines, it is a pleasure to find among the L's on the shelf of the public library a half dozen loose-leaved, dog's-eared volumes, essay novels or, as he himself styled them, "entertainments" from the pen of E. V. Lucas. A fashion more than a quarter of a century out of use, and staled by the great publishing houses, he still holds his own in quiet reading rooms, where middle-aged librarians mention him with respect. It is difficult to account for a popularity, moderate though it undoubtedly is, which continues to defy the laws of...

A-level Maths
A-level maths video tutorials
I have over 2000 video tutorials to help with your maths AS and A-level maths revision in Core Maths, Mechanics and Statistics.
About the course
A-level maths is normally studied after doing GCSE maths in UK schools and colleges.
A-level maths is generally regarded as a two year course which is broken up into various modules. The common modules are Core Maths, Mechanics, Statistics and Decision Maths.
During the first year of study most students do 3 modules which leads to an advanced supplementary award (AS) taking two compulsory modules in Core Maths (C1, C2) and one more in Statistics (S1) or Mechanics (M1) or Decision Maths (D1).
After completing the 3 modules at AS level students may decide to continue their studies and take another 3 modules leading to an A-level award (A2) in maths.
Common combinations of the 6 modules required for A-level maths (A2 maths) are the four Core Maths modules (C1, C2, C3 and C4) with the remaining two being taken from Mechanics, Statistics or Decision Maths.
Designed to bridge the gap between GCSE and AS-level Maths. This book covers the difficult areas of GCSE Maths, with concise explanation notes, worked examples and practice questions. It is for home use after GCSE is over.
For example, someone wanting mainly Statistics may opt for
Core Maths (modules C1, C2, C3, C4) + Statistics (modules S1, S2)
For someone wanting mainly Mechanics may opt for
Core Maths (modules C1, C2, C3, C4) + Mechanics (modules M1, M2)
It is not uncommon to see the following combinations of 6 modules being taken.
Core Maths (modules C1, C2, C3, C4) + Statistics (module S1) + Mechanics (module M1)
Core Maths (modules C1, C2, C3, C4) + Statistics (modules S1) + Decision Maths (module D1)
Core Maths
- Core Maths Is generally regarded as the main tool of mathematics looking at using algebraic methods, solving equations, graphs of functions, series, differentiation and integration methods.
- Works well for anyone thinking of doing physics or engineering. Typical kinds of problems that you will look at are:
- What height will a ball reach if thrown upwards with a given speed?
- What force is required to stop an object sliding down a slope?
- When two objects collide, what speed do they go after the collision?
- Statistics looks at data that is collected from surveys and models the data to fit various mathematical models to help answer questions such as
- What are the chances of an accident occurring on a certain stretch of road?
- Is there a difference between using drug A or drug B to cure a disease?
- This is a good module to choose if you are going into any of the sciences.
Decision Maths
- Decision Mathematics is used to solve many real life, practical problems. Here are some examples of areas in which Decision Mathematics can be used:
- What is the best route for a gritting lorry to follow so that it covers every road in a town but keeping the distance travelled to a minimum?
- What is the minimum quantity of cable needed to link a network of computers together?
- What is the best way to organise people's resources in the building of a house?
The main examination boards are Edexcel, OCR and AQA.
On this site you will find plenty of video tutorials and video worked solutions to exam questions which hopefully will give you the confidence and support you need to tackle your maths A-level.
You may also want to look at our core maths tips and mechanics tips which provide further guidance.

Well... it was time for something new to be on our chalkboard window display. And today, March 2nd, is Texas Independence Day! Yes, we Texan's can get really really really into Texas. Probably too much. WE'RE JUST PATRIOTIC OKAY!? So what if we ride horses to work? (joke.) So, to celebrate Texas Independence Day, we've drawn a map of the United States: It's pretty accurate I'd say…
But really, if you're facebook friends with anyone from Texas, they've probably posted something Texas-y today.More Posts.....

Starting Over at 512 1st
Posted by Dave Fratello on Friday, October 19th, 2012 at 6:18pm.
Holy tilted house, Batman! |
It was a visual cue that something was awry with this mid-90s built contemporary.
That cue proved correct.
There was the very curious layout – 3br downstairs, the master on the third floor, living spaces sandwiched in between.
There was the odd use of the lot – a separate garage building up front on 1st St. with a guest unit/bonus room on top. A "yard" in between, but not on the sunny southern side of the lot.
And within the brazenly different building, there were quirks. One observer wrote: "[I]t does have a number of rooms with curved walls, which leave unusable corner spaces."
MBC said, "512 1st does require you to bend your mind around the current layout, or re-imagine it with some work or rearranging of the layout."
512 1st coming down this week |
When a house is absolutely too rife with mistakes to be fixable, maybe you don't try to move walls, expand this, shrink that, change the use of space, etc. You just begin anew.
The new owners wound up paying $1.799m in February this year for the lot.
It's a good and unique lot, 4000 sq. ft. with direct access to the south to the vast, grassy playing fields at the elementary school. Just a few homes have gates opening directly to the grass like this one can. The fields are a community hangout and an attraction that a better house could do a nice job welcoming for the new residents.
Almost any house will be a better house, but still, to see the old one coming down this week was a shock and surprise.
Wondering what the "proper" land value may have been here, we first thought of the next-door-neighbor, which closed 2 years ago (Nov. 2010). That was 516 1st, which sold for $1.140m. Same 4000 sq. ft. lot, but with a little cottage on it that the new owners preserved and remodeled. (See "Reconfiguring on 1st.")
We're sure the neighbors are enjoying their little beach house, probably all the more so now that they've seen their paper equity jump by more than $600k overnight.
Right next to the school's parking lot, earlier this year a very old and small house with a 3,000 sq. ft. lot (420 1st) sold for $899k. That one's hard to measure against anything else because it's so impacted by the parking lot. But it sure looks tiny next to $1.799m.
Nearby around the South End, you also had 521 2nd, which sold earlier this year for $1.370m. The property now hosts a dated, 1960 post-and-beam house on a standard size, street-to-alley lot (2700 sq. ft.). It's looking like a remodel is not happening and it will be a new build instead. (Dave's clients bought the property.)
No one thought that $1.370m was land value at the time for 2nd, but if it was, the price by the lot square foot would translate over to 512 1st as $2.020m – then you adjust for location for 1st (busy street). If you go by what seemed the lot value probably was for 521 2nd at the time, around $1.150m or so, then the lot at 512 1st pencils out to a $1.7m-ish value before adjustment. Somewhere between those 2, the $1.799m figure doesn't look quite as alarming.
But the important point is that someone's fixing the mistakes at 512 1st by starting with a clean slate. This will be one to watch.
NOTE: As we go to post this story, the Redfin links aren't working – Redfin isn't working. We're somewhat confident Redfin will come back and the links will work. Still, this is not the first time recently we've become frustrated with Redfin. They've made recent changes that have ruined some of what we liked about the site – as a few readers have complained to MBC. It may be time for a change. Stay tuned.

The dahdi drivers and binaries are needed to use popular digital and
analogue telephony equipment and are typically installed alongside the
asterisk PBX (although these are not required for asterisk if you are
not using any hardware to interface with the POTS/PSTN system). Note
that if you change your kernel after installing any dahdi components,
you'll have to re-compile dahdi-linux (a simple re-install will not
suffice), but may be able to keep your existing dahdi-tools package.
After installing dahdi-linux, you must install dahdi-tools in order to
use the kernel modules this script builds.

Didn't fit perfectly as I had to add a couple holes to line up with the existing holes and I had to trim it in one place, but for the money, not a bad deal. Should include the clips and screw needed to install (or at least point to them in the order form).

Roasted Eggplant with Saffron Yogurt
two 1 1/4-pound eggplants, cut in 1-inch cubes
1 teaspoon Kosher salt, plus extra
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon saffron
2 tablespoons hot water
1/2 cup Greek yogurt
Freshly cracked black pepper
10 basil leaves, roughly chopped
1 tablespoon toasted pine nuts
In a large colander, toss the eggplant with the salt. Allow to drain over the sink for 30 minutes. Do not rinse. Preheat the broiler.
Toss the eggplant with the olive oil on a Silpat- or parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Arrange the eggplant in a single layer, close together, on the baking sheet. Broil in the top third of the oven, but not directly under the broiler, stirring 3 times, until the eggplant is soft and just beginning to char, 25 to 30 minutes. Set aside to cool.
While the eggplant roasts, combine the saffron and hot water in a small bowl, and allow to steep. Once the eggplant is cool, blend together the saffron, its water, and the yogurt in a small food processor. Season with salt and pepper.
Arrange the eggplant in a single layer on a wide platter. Top with the saffron yogurt sauce, then basil leaves, and finally pine nuts. Serve at room temperature.

Obama and Biden Release Tax Returns – Are They Fair?
by AccountingWEB on
printer friendly
By Ken Berry
The two top executives in the US government – President Obama and Vice President Biden – released their 2011 federal tax returns this past week. The Prez's return resulted in an effective tax rate slightly higher than 20 percent. For the Veep, the effective tax rate was more than 23 percent.
Neither one had to pay tax at a rate anywhere near the highest marginal tax rate for 2011 – 35 percent – but the estimated effective tax rate in 2011 for presumptive Republican presidential challenger Mitt Romney is 15.4 percent, due mainly to tax breaks on investment income.
Obama intends to turn tax fairness into a high-profile issue on this year's campaign trail. He has argued that wealthier Americans, and that includes himself and Biden, haven't been paying their fair share of taxes. "He believes that people like him should be paying an effective tax rate that is no lower than the rate paid by hard-working, middle-class Americans," said White House press secretary Jay Carney.
Talking Points
- Help your clients pay no more or no less than they're legally obligated to.
- If you can help them lower their tax bill through perfectly legitimate means, so much the better.
Although the president hasn't spelled out any specifics yet, he supports the basic premise behind the so-called Buffet Rule, named for the business mogul who proposed that the rich should pay higher taxes. The Buffet Rule would apply to those who earn at least $1 million a year.
The 2011 federal tax return for the president revealed that the family paid more than $160,000 in tax on earnings of $789,674. That was down significantly from federal income tax of $453,770 on $1.7 million of income in 2010 when Obama's books were top sellers. The president's salary represented approximately half of the 2011 income. Most of the remainder came from book sales.
Obama listed his occupation as "US President" and his wife, Michelle, stated hers as "US First Lady" on their 2011 return. The couple claimed their two daughters as tax dependents, for a total of $14,800 in personal exemptions. They also deducted more than $172,000 in charitable donations.
The vice-president's 2011 return was remarkably similar to his 2010 return. Biden and his wife, Jill, paid $87,900 in federal taxes on income of $379,035. The income was $143 less than the amount stated on their 2010 return, but their tax liability was $1,274 higher. Biden earned $225,521 from his salary as vice president, while Mrs. Biden's was paid wages of approximately $82,000 for teaching at Northern Virginia Community College. The couple claimed donations of $5,540 to charity.
Regardless of your political affiliation, it's safe to say that the two top Dems, as well as the GOP's Romney, aren't cheating on their tax returns. The moral of the story: There's a distinction between "tax avoidance" and "tax evasion." It's your job to help clients pay no more or no less than they're legally obligated to. If you can help them lower their 2011 tax bill through perfectly legitimate means, so much the better.

BUSINESS Heat | |
Logo in 2008 | |
Name: | Heat |
Tagline(s): | "Feel the Burn" "Break the Rules" |
Type: | Clothing Company |
Appearance(s): | Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas Grand Theft Auto IV Grand Theft Auto V |
Locations: | Prosperity Street Promenade in Del Perro |
Heat is a sportswear clothing company in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Grand Theft Auto IV, and Grand Theft Auto V.
Heat is based on the apparel and accessories company Adidas. Several pedestrians around Liberty City and Los Santos can be seen wearing clothes made by the company, and advertisements can be seen all over San Andreas and Liberty City. As of 2008, Heat has its own website (www.heatbreaktherules.com); unlike other websites for in-game products, it is inaccessible. Heat is also featured in www.peepthatshit.com, and has a theme available to download on www.vipluxuryringtones.com. One of the Heat logos (used primarily in 1992) looks like two Nike logos facing upward; another (used until 2008) is somewhat similar to the Adidas "three stripe" logo. These may be where the inspiration of the brand came from.
In GTA San Andreas, Heat's slogan is "Feel the Burn", and in GTA IV, "Break the Rules" (again, possibly a nod to Nike's "Just Do It").
- Gay Tony occasionally wears Heat sportswear instead of his typical business suit, specifically in the missions involving the diamonds where he is present (Frosting on the Cake/Diamonds in the Rough and Ladies Half Price/Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend).
- The branch in Del Perro is based on the Puma store in Santa Monica, providing another possible inspiration for the brand.

Buying a Waxing Iron...
Well, the new season's starting up soon now, and I'd like to start waxing my own board(s). I know that most of the irons made for this purpose are pretty similar, but is there any specific one I should take a look at, and where would I be best off purchasing one? Are the generic ski/board wax irons on ebay okay, or should I stay away?
Thanks, Chris |

I use a Toko ski iron. Most of the ski brands use the same model, but change the color and the printed logo. As long as you can adjust the precise temperature, and if it's flat with no holes, you're good. Of course, a generic clothes iron will do the job, but you can't adjust the temp as well, which makes it tedious for waxing, since you usually want a precise temperature depending on which wax you want to use! Colder waxes= higher temp, Warmer waxes= lower temp.
If you have any questions regarding waxing, don't hesitate to ask! |

I had a Swix iron for years, but it got lost in a move. I bought a $10 Walmart iron and haven't noticed any big difference in temp control. Certainly nothing to justify the extra $$. The only thing I did notice was how awkward it can be occasionally with the larger surface area to manipulate, particularly if there's a little cupping under the binding, for example. Scrapers, on the other hand, are worth spending a couple of extra $$ on to get ones that hold an edge for a decent period of time. I hate having to re-sharpen them all the time |

You have to take your time a bit more than with plastic ones and pay even more attention to what your doing so you dont rock up on the edge and gouge your board, but it just pulls the wax off SOOO much faster its incredible. I get big sheets of wax off instead of all the crumbly crap i get with plastic scrapers...Snowolf has a video on youtube showing one...its basically just a flat metal putty knife you'd use in construction It was like 8 bucks at Lowes and will never dull realistically...my plastic scraper got dull so fast it was crap...once its dull you may as well start scraping the wax off with your fingernails it will get done faster...

"older formulation of Pauli exclusion principle" Is there any old formulation of pauli's principle? If so, is it explain that "forbiding the presence of two electrons in the same quantum state"? I need that explanation.
Re: "older formulation of Pauli exclusion principle" Two electrons can't occupy the same quantum state, what kind of explanation are you looking for? What in the present formulation makes you not understand it?
Re: "older formulation of Pauli exclusion principle" Old formulation? Mmm... don't know exactly what that means... but consider this: The many-body wavefunction must be antisymmetric under interchange of the variables describing any two electrons. This is more general than a description in terms of "orbitals", but of course if an orbital description is possible it forbids two electrons to be in the same orbital.

Bernard Not Ruling Milwaukee Out As Possible Addition To '12 IndyCar Schedule
IndyCar CEO Randy Bernard said that a deal to add a race to the '12 Izod IndyCar Series schedule at the Milwaukee Mile "remains at the 'ideas' stage," according to Dave Kallmann of the MILWAUKEE JOURNAL SENTINEL. Bernard indicated that the series "owes it to the track and fans to give racing here one more shot, and none of the apparent problems is a big enough hurdle to stop that from happening." He said, "We'd love to have Milwaukee, but it'd have to make sense for a promoter to be able to go there. We're just trying to see if the opportunity exists, (and if so) we'd like to try to do it. But I don't think we're any further." Kallmann noted IndyCar returned to the track last year after skipping the '10 season, but the '11 race weekend "suffered from organizational problems of a first-time promoter and the lack of a title sponsorship." The crowd also "fell short of expectations." Bernard denied the idea that adding Milwaukee is "just a choice made from desperation." Bernard: "If we have to live with 15 events this year, we can live with 15 events. ... And we think there's another opportunity, a minimum of one other racetrack that wants a race this year." However, he added, "I think we owe the Milwaukee people. We owe the track. Because if we don't do this, the chances of that track becoming mothballed, I think, is a possibility" (MILWAUKEE JOURNAL SENTINEL, 2/1). Izod reportedly as part of its sponsorship with IndyCar maintains that the series run at least 16 races. In Indianapolis, Curt Cavin noted Bernard is "confident that the Baltimore race will be held, as scheduled, and he'll announce the 16th race during the State of the Series address Feb. 13." Cavin wrote, "As for the 16th race, I'm inclined to think it's Milwaukee, which would be a mid-June race." Bernard has "seemed cool on doing Fort Lauderdale" this year, as he "doesn't want to rush a new event" (INDYSTAR.com, 1/31).
AT LEAST ONE PROPOSAL IN: In Baltimore, Luke Broadwater reported North American Motorsports Events Inc. (NAME), one of several groups attempting to run the Baltimore Grand Prix this year, "has submitted a detailed 68-page business plan to City Hall officials." NAME CEO Geoff Whaling said he is "awaiting a reponse from the city" on the proposal. Sources have said that Indianapolis-based Dillon Construction Group Owner Dale Dillon "has emerged as a front-runner to take over the racing contract" (BALTIMORESUN.com, 1/30). -
Federal Panel Consolidates Former NFL Players' Concussion Lawsuits
A panel of federal judges yesterday agreed to "consolidate four concussion-related lawsuits facing the NFL into one massive pre-trial case -- and is expected to soon do the same with at least 16 related suits," according to Adam Beasley of the MIAMI HERALD. The decision "sets the stage for a fierce legal showdown in Philadelphia between the NFL and many of its former players." More than 600 former players and their wives "have sued the league, alleging that the repeated head injuries suffered while playing football led to serious health issues later in life, including memory loss, migraine headaches and depression." The plaintiffs will "now marshal forces in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, where Judge Anita Brody has agreed to take on the high-profile affair." The Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation "found that the four complaints in question involved common questions of facts." The panel also "chose to keep the cases against the NFL bundled together with those against equipment maker Riddell, the league's official helmet provider that had asked to be considered separately." The NFL is "expected to request that all concussion-related complaints be dismissed" (MIAMI HERALD, 2/1).

I've been a fan of David Weber's Honor Harrington series for years. It's great to finally have unabridged audio versions of them. My only caveat is that the narrator is difficult to understand at times. Her voice is a good choice for Honor, but her interpretation is very different than my own has been (in my head) during my many re-readings of this book.
"Another enjoyable Western"
The interaction between Walt and Vic.
The gradual unfolding of the story.
I listened to this out of order. Now I have to go back and read/listen to them all in order.
He begins with the sheriff humoring an old lady by listening to her unlikely and disjointed story, then slowly circles out to a realization that her story is central to his current case, and he keeps it lively by including lots of interaction with the series' ongoing characters and their stories.
"Don't start this until you have a 3-day weekend!"
Yes, but I would recommend starting the series at book 1. This volume picks up almost immediately from the previous one.Read it because it is an epic story. Read it because you like seeing the process unfold, not just skipping to the end to see the result.Read it for action and romance.
There are so many to choose from!Merlin, Caleb, Sharleyn, Narmahn, Irys, Nimue...
1. Irys, 2. Nimue
Does losing sleep to listen count? How about bathing instead of showering because you had to hear the next bit?I laughed, cried, and held my breath (often!) while listening.
To Audible: please post only reviews of the audiobook; that's what you're selling. A lot of the bad reviews of this book are by readers aggravated by the complex spelling of the names--not helpful in the decision to buy the audiobook!
Please keep Mr. Wyman as the narrator for the rest of the series!
I wish I had Mr. Weber's series outline, because I Want to Know how far towards the future anhilation of the Gbaba he is going to take us.
"Incompetent narrator!"
Yes, inspite of the nearly illiterate narrator who not only mispronounces all of the names but also some common English words. The story is too good not to reread/relisten, but I have considered buying the ebook to avoid this narrator. I would have boycotted the next Audible book in the series if you had used the same narrator.
When Princess Iris admits that she has been converted to the reformed church.
He mispronounced most of the names whose pronunciations had been long-established and familiar in the 5 previous books in this series. He also mispronounced quite a few common English words, making his reading sound like a third grader's at times.
PLEASE HAVE THIS BOOK RERECORDED, using the narrator of Like a Mighty. Army.
World War on Mankind's Last Refuge!
When you change narrators in a series, the new narrator should be . required to listen toprevious books in the series, especially sci fi stories which usually have made up names in them.
"The epitome of romance"
Set before the French Revolution, an English duke rescues a French "guttersnipe", with murky plans for his(?) future, but the brat turns the duke's plans on him -- Cinderella with a touch of Romeo and Juliet. This has always been my favorite Georgette Heyer book, and I love them all. "Devil's Cub" is the sequel, set in the next generation.
"We're not alone..."
Some ETs have arrived to warn us that we've got five years to prepare to be invaded by really hungry, really dangerous aliens. This story is the start of a series that seems to get better as it goes (not that the first books aren't great!). The action is almost nonstop, and you can't help wondering how we're going to survive the roller coaster of preparation, off-world battles, and political change in the face of invasion.
"Fun and exciting"
This is well worth listening to. The heroine is half American Indian/half Irish. For years she has pretended to be plain old 'Joann Walker,' but now her true heritage & name catch up with her and turn her life (and the Seattle police) upside down. Very entertaining. Now I want to get the second book in the series to find out what happens next!
"Addictive pleasure??"
The main character, Yelena, is so engaging and so endangered that I blew through this book in 2 days, even though I like to ration my audio books. Now I have to have the next book, Magic Study, to find out whether Yelena manages to land on her feet again. Her attitude reminds me a bit of Sookie Stackhouse in Charlaine Harris' books -- never give up, and rarely give up the last word.

Texas collaboration started with lunch in Wisconsin
Researchers bring different skills, expertise and perspectives that can illuminate hard problems.
But just bringing different disciplines together can be a hard problem in itself, despite work being done by universities to break down the siloes that contain them.
So we wondered how Adela Ben-Yakar, a professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, and Jon Pierce-Shimomura, an assistant professor in the Section of Neurobiology, came to collaborate.
They have received a $3 million grant from National Institutes of Health to develop technology that could drastically cut the time and cost to test drugs for neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's.
What Ben-Yakar brings to this collaboration is expertise in designing tools for delicate work at the cellular level. What Pierce-Shimomura brings is expertise in developing a special breed of C. elegans worm on which to use the tools.
All Ben-Yakar and Pierce-Shimomura had to do is attend a conference for researchers who work with C. elegans held at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2008. It helped that they happened to sit at the same table for a lunch.
That fall Pierce-Shimomura would be a new faculty member at The University of Texas at Austin.
"I was just about to move to UT and was excited to learn that she was already here," Pierce-Shimomura said. "I had experiments in the back of my mind that would clearly benefit from her expertise in microfluidics, lasers and optics.
"Likewise, I think she was happy to have us move to UT as the first lab with extensive experience in C. elegans neuroscience and molecular biology."
Pierce-Shimomura's arrival in Austin was indeed timely for Ben-Yakar and her lab.
"Before arrival of Jon, my group had developed several novel techniques for studying C. elegans, including precise laser surgery and microfluidic trapping methods for studying nerve regeneration," Ben-Yakar said. "It was clear to both of us that together we can create a powerful synergy for revealing new insights in neurodegenerative diseases."
But even after they realized that they could work together, there was more work to do before they could.
Pierce-Shimomura's lab had developed a worm that develops Alzheimer's disease. Just as in humans, a subset of the worm's brain degenerates in the worm's "middle age," when its about five-days-old. The dying neurons can be seen through the worm's transparent body.
"When Jon showed me his new Alzheimer's model last year, I kept thinking what kind of new tools I need to develop to take advantage of this important disease model for rapid screening of drugs," Ben-Yakar said.
Ben-Yakar went to her lab and soon after she came up with new ideas for ultrafast optical and microfluidic methods.
"This new tool box, combining new optical, microfluidics, and genetic methods, could only be invented by the combined expertise of our team," Ben-Yakar said. "It has the potential to be very powerful in enabling new paradigms for research and discovery."
What they plan to do with Ben-Yakar's tools and Pierce-Shimomura's worms is to search for new drugs that may delay or prevent neurodegeneration and aging in humans.

9 Grammatical Pitfalls
as a stand-alone word, attested from 1788, originally in reference to the anti-federalists in U.S. politics (in the 1830s, of the Anti-Masonic party); as an adjective, from 1857. From anti- in various usages.
word-forming element meaning "against, opposed to, opposite of, instead," from Old French anti- and directly from Latin anti-, from Greek anti "against, opposite, instead of," also used as a prefix, from PIE *anti "against," also "in front of" (see ante). It appears in some words in Middle English but was not commonly used in word formations until modern times.
anti- or ant-pref.
Opposite: antimere.
Opposing; against: antisocial.
Counteracting; neutralizing: antibody.
A person opposed to a particular plan, position, action, etc: The vote showed three pros and six antis
