Re: Receiver advice-Yamaha or Onkyo
Good choice, I'm sure you'll fully enjoy your new Onkyo receiver.
I recently picked up a Yamaha RX-V3800 and am very happy with it so far. Before I decided on the Yamaha I probably should have done a bit more research into power amps and separates. Since I was replacing a Sony STR-DE835 receiver my mind was wrapped up in getting a "bigger, better" receiver with updated technology such a HDMI switching, more power and something considered more "high end". At the dealer I narrowed down what I liked to the Yamaha and the Denon 3808. Honestly I didn't listen to the Onkyo because I personally don't care for the brand name and look. That's no to say Onkyo doesn't make great receivers, the high end models I was looking at got great ratings. To me the Onkyo is not a sight to behold, not that any of these things are gorgeous but to my eyes the Onkyo's look is the least desirable. I know we don't buy these things to look at them but to hear them yet I just wouldn't want to look at that thing in my A/V rack. Also every review of Onkyo I have read states that they run VERY hot, to the point where you almost can't touch them. That may be normal operation for an Onkyo but it still makes me worry about reliability and longevity. Heat is the enemy of consumer electronics and most other things for that matter. The dealer let me listen to both receivers over the same set of Paradigm speakers. He kept switching between the two receivers. On each receiver he set the volume at -10db and also had both receivers in pure stereo mode so that the comparison would be fair. The music played over each receiver was the same also. Both receivers sounded very good, the Denon's sound was a little more "in your face" and up front. The Yamaha's sound to me was a little more laid back but also smoother and cleaner. Again that's to my ears. Others may prefer the Denon's sound. Anyway, FWIW that's my experience with buying a receiver. Hope it offers some insight.

Re: Receiver advice-Yamaha or Onkyo
Thanks! I am enjoying my Onkyo 805 very much!! It does run hotter than the Yamaha it replaced but a couple of 80mm fans do a good job of keeping the temp reasonable. It is in
a closed cabinet which does not help but I have been wanting to cut some ventilation holes in the back even when I had the Yamaha. I had listened to both the Yamaha and Denon at my local dealer and actually liked the Denon sound better! To each his own. The best thing was after I hooked up my Onkyo, my wife and I sat down to watch a movie. The first thing she said was how much better she liked the sound of the Onkyo over the Yamaha we replaced. I also thought that the Onkyo was the best bang for the buck when I purchased it. |

Re: Receiver advice-Yamaha or Onkyo
You know, when you go over them all, (Yamaha, Denon, and Onkyo) it could be a toss up, they are so close. But, I favor the Onkyo`s, and they are the best bang for the buck. But to be fair, I have not heard a Denon receiver in a while.

Re: Receiver advice-Yamaha or Onkyo
Exactly. It is a bit of a process. But, one you should enjoy as well. Get your favorite DVD`s and CD`s, ones you know well, and go for it.

Re: Receiver advice-Yamaha or Onkyo
Just to throw my 2 cents in. I recently went through an AVR upgrade. I was replacing my old Onkyo txds777b. I loved this unit but with new decoding processes it was time to upgrade. I'd been planning on a Denon for sometime. I ended up with the 2808ci. I got it home and ran the audyssey eq setup with the mic on a tripod and 7 listening positions. Checked the levels with an SPL meter. Ran test source material and watched / listened to several movies. I came to the conclusion that I really didn't like the Denon "sound". It seemed a bit hollow and unnatural IMO. So, I took the receiver back and ended up with a Pioneer Elite VSX-92TXH. I never pictured myself buying an elite, not that there's anything wrong with the brand, It just wasn't on my radar of possibilities. So to make a long story short, I'm very pleased with the purchase. The sound quality suits me well and the fit and finish of the receiver is outstanding.
I know you've made your decision but, I wanted to through out some other ideas for those who are viewing this thread looking for advice on a new AVR. |

Vocalist Thomas Mars, bassist Deck d'Arcy, and guitarist Chris Mazzalai started playing together as a "garage band" based out of Mars's house in the suburbs of Paris, France. In 1995, Laurent Brancowitz, Mazzalai's older brother, permanently joined the band on guitar after the end of Darlin', a short-lived band that Brancowitz had formed with Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo (Bangalter and de Homem-Christo later formed Daft Punk). Two years later the band took on the name Phoenix and pressed 500 copies of a single on their own label, Ghettoblaster. Shortly after, they were signed to the Paris-based Source Records. Phoenix became well acquainted with labelmates Air when they acted as their backing band on several U.K. TV appearances.
Phoenix is a French alternative rock band started during their childhood by Thomas Mars, Deck D'Arcy, Christian Mazzalai and Laurent Brancowitz in the suburb of Versailles, in the same culture that produced late-'90s bands such as Air and Daft Punk
The name Phoenix was officially chosen in 1996 when Laurent Brancowitz permanently joined the band after the end of the short-lived band Darlin' he formed with Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo, who eventually became Daft Punk
They have 4 studio albums and 1 live album under their belt so far.

JEFFERSON CITY — At a Wednesday evening forum designed to encourage discussion about Missouri's tax code, lawmakers and lobbyists showed change isn't easy.
One of the few things the four speakers at the meeting, dubbed "A Tale of Two Tax Plans," agreed on was the state's outdated income tax rate. The highest tax bracket starts at $9,000. All earnings above that amount are taxed at 6 percent. The formula hasn't changed since it was enacted in 1931.
Jeanette Mott Oxford stressed the need for a more progressive income tax rate. Since the majority of Missouri residents earn at least $9,000, Missouri's income tax is not as progressive as it should be, said Mott Oxford, a former Democratic representative from St. Louis and the current director of Missouri Association for Social Welfare, a group working to reduce poverty.
Part of the difficulty in changing the tax code, the panelists agreed, is how it works. The legislature may pass tax cuts, but tax increases must go to a vote of the people.
"Every time we decrease those taxes, it's gone," said Rep. Judy Morgan, D-Kansas City. "We're not getting it back."
The meeting, at Lincoln University's Inman E. Page Library, also included Rep. T.J. Berry, R-Kearney, and Ray McCarty, president and CEO of Associated Industries of Missouri, a pro-business group.
Panelists thought that some problems could be traced back to the Hancock Amendment. Passed in 1980, the amendment stipulates that the state may take in only a certain amount of revenue.
In the past, money was returned in the form of tax refunds, but the state changed its method to tax cuts. The amount of tax refunds changed on a yearly basis, but because tax increases are difficult to pass, the tax cuts are essentially permanent.
"There will always be lobbyists to kill every tax reform proposal," McCarty said.
McCarty said Missouri needed to be friendlier to businesses. Employers drive the economy, he said, and low taxes would spur growth. In return, the state would have more revenue.
Companies will look to where it is least costly to do business, he said.
Mott Oxford said Missouri was already not taking in enough revenue, noting cuts in mental health and a lack of education funding. She said tax cuts should be offset by other tax increases.
Mott Oxford and Morgan were intrigued by a bill submitted by Rep. Eric Burlison, R-Springfield, that would have exempted taxes for those making below $11,000, which would benefit low-income earners. But they thought more reform was needed.
In an interview after the discussion, Berry talked about a tax bill he sponsored this legislative session. That bill, House Bill 1253, would cut taxes by $371 million.
Last year, Berry sponsored the controversial House Bill 253, which would have cut taxes by $1 billion. That bill was smaller until the Senate added a lot to it, he said. Berry worried the Senate would increase the size of his current bill, but he wanted assurances on how much it would cost and what it would cut.
He said he hoped to have a vote on HB 1253 early enough so that if it is vetoed, legislators can change it and send it back to the governor.
After HB 253 was vetoed in 2013, Gov. Jay Nixon withheld $400 million from education and other government projects, citing a potential drain on state revenues if his veto were to be overridden by legislators, according to The Associated Press. In September, the House failed to override the veto during a veto session.
The governor has returned $215 million but still holds onto $134 for capital improvements. On Feb. 20, lawmakers endorsed a constitutional amendment that would block some of his budgetary powers.

J-Stabilization of singlet states in the solution NMR of multiple-spin systems
Pileio, G. and Levitt, M.H. (2007) J-Stabilization of singlet states in the solution NMR of multiple-spin systems. Journal of Magnetic Resonance, 187, (1), 141-145. (doi:10.1016/j.jmr.2007.03.019).
Full text not available from this repository.
Long-lived singlet states have been observed in the solution NMR of spin systems containing more than two coupled spins, despite the fact that the singlet state is expected to be quenched by small long-range J-couplings. We show that the stability of localized singlet states may be explained by taking into account the intra-pair J-coupling between the two spins which participate in the singlet state. The relatively strong intra-pair J-coupling protects the singlet state against quenching by weaker out-of-pair J-couplings.

Seasonal to Interannual Forecasts
Forecasting Oregon Coho Marine Survival
November 2004 archive copy
On This Page
People Involved
- Elizabeth Logerwell (contact person), NOAA Fisheries/Alaska Fishery Science Center
- Nathan Mantua, University of Washington, Climate Impacts Group
- Peter Lawson, NOAA Fisheries/Newport Lab
- Robert Francis, University of Washington, Climate Impacts Group and School of Aquatic and Fishery Sciences
- Vera Agostini, University of Washington, Climate Impacts Group and School of Aquatic and Fishery Sciences
Marine survival rates for Oregon coho salmon are influenced by several sequential environmental processes that affect coastal ocean food webs:
- Winter climate prior to smolt migration from rivers to the ocean;
- Date of occurrence of the "spring transition", the period when alongshore winds (off the Pacific Northwest (PNW) coast) shift from being mostly northward to mostly southward;
- Total coastal upwelling during the spring;
- Ocean conditions during the maturing cohos' only winter at sea.
By monitoring conditions during each cohort's lifecycle, we can provide an experimental forecast of Oregon coho marine survival rates.
Recent and Forecasted Conditions
Environmental Index | Observed/ Forecasted Conditions |
Relative Condition | Implication for coho marine survival |
Oregon Coastal Sea Surface Temperature, January-February-March 2004 | 10.5° C | A little above average | Slightly |
Spring Transition Date, 2004 | Day 110 | About 20 days later than average | UNFAVORABLE |
Neah Bay Coastal Sea Level (proxy for upwelling and alongshore transport), April-May-June 2004 | -75.02 mm | About average | NEUTRAL |
Forecasted Oregon Coastal Sea Surface Temperature, January-February-March 2005* | 9-11° C? (see table below) |
*January-March sea surface temperature is estimated using the long-term (1948-2000) mean plus/minus one standard deviation from the mean.
Current Forecast
Issue date: November 29, 2004
FORECAST RETURN RATE FOR ADULTS RETURNING FALL 2005 (mean rate):
1% (+/- 1%)
Forecasted Jan-March 2005
Sea Surface Temperature |
Forecasted Return Rate
for March 2005 |
9.33 (1 stand. dev. below mean) |
2% (+/- 1%) |
10.15 (mean value) |
1% (+/- 1%) |
10.98 (1 stand. dev. above mean) |
<1% |
Based on current conditions and expectations for continued weak tropical El Niño, it is likely that coastal Oregon sea surface temperatures in January-February-March 2005 will be average to above average. This suggests relatively poor marine survival rates for Oregon coastal coho due to return as spawning adults in 2005.
Next Forecast Update:
Spring 2005 (approx. April 2005)

See Figure 1 for the model's performance at hindcasting for the period 1969-1998.
Forecast Methodology
To better understand and predict Oregon coho marine survival, we developed a conceptual model (Figure 2) of key environmental processes that influence coastal ocean food webs and ultimately marine survival rates for Oregon coho salmon. The key processes are sequential:
- winter climate prior to smolt migration from rivers to the ocean;
- date of occurrence of the spring transition, when alongshore winds (off the PNW coast) shift from being mostly northward to mostly southward;
- total coastal upwelling during the spring;
- ocean conditions during the maturing cohos' only winter at sea.
We then parameterized a general additive model (GAM) with Oregon Production Index (OPI) coho smolt-to-adult survival estimates from 1970-2001 and the environmental processes listed above. For the model training period (smolt year data from 1969-2000), the GAM explained 75% of the variance in observed OPI smolt-to-adult survival rates.

This extremely well done restored Corvette is as pretty as they come. It received a complete nut and bolt restoration and only has traveled 1,946 miles since. The engine is the original fuel injected 283ci 275hp V8 with a 4-speed manual transmission. The numbers on the engine are 103207 F1105CR. The Rochester fuel injection is serial number 2182. Of the 10,939 Corvettes built in 1961, only 118 cars were equipped with this engine and the option added $484 to the $3,900 base price. 1961 was the last year for the 283ci engine in the Corvette. It has the proper stainless steel wheel covers with the like new wide whitewall tires. The Wonderbar radio is original to the car. The white vinyl convertible top is in excellent condition and the interior looks brand new. The undercarriage is just as nice and shows no signs of wear. The engine compartment is very tidy and based on the condition, this car has never been in inclement weather. It has been stored in a climate controlled facility and the paint and chrome look like new. It starts right away and runs down the road like a new car. It shifts firmly and the clutch performs properly. We have driven numerous C1 Corvettes, but none as nice and smooth as this one.

Although we don't believe in timing the market or panicking over daily movements, we do like to keep an eye on market changes -- just in case they're material to our investing thesis.
Stocks overcame a weak manufacturing report, poor earnings from Wal-Mart (NYSE: WMT ) , and yesterday's concerns about the stimulus taper to finish in positive territory as the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI ) finished up 93 points, or 0.6%, while the S&P 500 closed up by the same amount. A report from the Philadelphia Fed showed manufacturing activity in the mid-Atlantic has actually contracted this month as the index fell to -6.3 points, down from 9.4, and below estimates at 7.4. Analysts seemed to attribute the slowdown to poor weather, though a report from Markit showed manufacturing nationwide expanding at its fastest pace in four years, rising from 53.7 to 56.7. Elsewhere, a report in China showed manufacturing contracted again, hitting a seven-month low. Finally, initial unemployment claims held steady last week at 336,000, even with expectations.
The world's biggest retailer finished the day down 1.8% after its outlook for the year disappointed the market. Like many other retailers, Wal-Mart cited poor holiday sales and bad weather for the underwhelming earnings report. as it posted a per-share profit of $1.60, down from $1.67 a year ago, but $0.01 ahead of estimates. Sales inched up 1.4%, to $128.8 billion, but that missed estimates at $130.2 billion. Meanwhile, same-store sales dropped 0.4%, though comps at its smaller-format Neighborhood Market stores increased 5%. For the current quarter, Wal-Mart expects a per-share profit of $1.10-$1.20, worse than estimates of $1.23. For the year, the retail giant sees EPS of $5.10-$5.45 against expectations of $5.54. CFO Charles Holley said economic factors would "continue to weigh on our outlook," and cited issues like food-stamp cuts, higher taxes, and health-care spending for the slow profit growth. Separately, the company said it would accelerate openings of its Neighborhood Market stores, and raised its quarterly dividend 2%, to $0.48, its 41st consecutive yearly increase.
After hours, Groupon (NASDAQ: GRPN ) shares were tumbling, down 11% after the daily deals merchant provided its own weak outlook. The online clearinghouse posted EPS of $0.04 in the past quarter, better than expectations of $0.02, while revenue jumped 20.4%, to $768.4 million, much better than the consensus at $718.7 million. For the current quarter, Groupon expects sales of $710-$760 million, ahead of estimates, but the bottom line sent investors fleeing as it projected results of -$0.04-$0.02, while analysts had expected a per-share profit of $0.06. During its brief history as a publicly traded company, Groupon has proven to be skilled at growing its top line, but profits have consistently been elusive. Its Goods department drove the surprising increase in sales, proof of its changing business model, and the company seems to be making the right steps for long-term stability with acquisitions of companies like Ticket Monster. Still, this will remain a risky investment until the deal merchant sees consistent profit growth.
Looking for a steady earner?
One of the dirty secrets that few finance professionals will openly admit is the fact that dividend stocks, as a group, handily outperform their non-dividend paying brethren. The reasons for this are too numerous to list here, but you can rest assured that it's true. However, knowing this is only half the battle. The other half is identifying which dividend stocks, in particular, are the best. With this in mind, our top analysts put together a free list of nine high-yielding stocks that should be in every income investor's portfolio.

this is amazing! I rarely ever get stuck on an adventure map, but due to all your hard work, I'm just not skilful enough to finish it! the castle was amazing - but in the jungle tower, when I went to explore it after I first came to the castle, I went to the third tower but couldn't get back again. eventually I jumped out the door to the far right, and killed myself. you may want to fix this. also, as has been said previously, one of the chests in "Williams room" is loot-able, especially if you have auto-pause on. I like your castle, but I think that some things may be improved. for instance, you should add some piggy banks - they are incredibly useful. but, this may not be what you want, so it's just my idea. also, use some more variety's of chests. I like how you use barrels and trash cans, but use them more - shelf's with chests just look odd. sorry, still just my opinion. also, in the mines, place more ores, and perhaps a building with piles of ores. that to me would make it more mine-like. anyway, amazing.
Longest map ever. (playtime roughly 4hrs and alot of death) 156 diamonds. (found final golden room, man there are alot of spawns in there) feedback (Move your mouse to reveal the content) feedback (open) feedback (close) Firstly questions: Can you take torches/other placeables? Can you craft? (don't think I was able to anyway but still ;p) Can you buy stuff from the npcs? (was tempted to grab a mining light) ok moving on..... Thoughts/observations: (i'm kinda tired atm writing this so.... here goes in no particular order as I remember.) Chests that shouldn't be reachable at certain stages can be grabbed through walls. Mostly in the main hub. Right at the start you can grab items through the wall instead of going around through the mine to get to the other side. Williams room, golden chest can be jump grabbed. A couple of chests requiring cloud in a bottle to reach can be jump grabbed. Some others I couldn't be bothered mentioning. I do realise some of them were suppose to be grabbed through a wall, but i'm pretty sure some of them are not suppose to be. I concepted a way to get to the throne room without cloud in a bottle but I flagged trying since it would require luring some demon eyes and having some sweet arse timing. It is possible to get to and complete desert before water dungeon. *jumps out jungle tower with 1 cobweb in hand* (saying that, it is also possible to skip the obsidian skull and finish the map but I wouldn't try it) The central mine entrance is completely hidden, I didn't find it until I was fully geared and ready to move onto the final areas. There are holes in the mine you can fall down and can't get out again, some even had chests so I was like uhhh ok... Had to reload map a few times to get out again. (This happened to me before finding and completing the water dungeon) Fix the numbering of your dungeons, I swear I saw dungeon 4 twice. Signage sending me on a wild goose chase back and forth between main hub and across the desert. eg desert temple -> goto throne room -> tells me to go back across desert to jungle -> tells me to go back to main hub to find obsidian skin potion and return again...... /argh) Bed too far inside desert temple, wasn't paying much attention and fell into a pit of spikes that were inescapable blahhh (more desert trips through the undodgeable cacti rawrrr) I also felt there could've been another checkpoint bed inside the desert temple. The lightning inside the desert area was very low, especially at nighttime. Ended up shooting devourers in the face in the dark based off sound. After getting hermes boots starting running across sky bridge platforms only to be interupted by random zombies spawning on them, had to climb all the way back up just to start off momentum again. In general I felt the leniance on the platforming/parkour sections were a bit harsh and if this were 1.0.5 terraria I probably would've rage quit the map as there are quite a few near perfect timing jumps. The diamond chests I felt were spammed a little too much across the map, most of the challenge was getting out of the pits you stuffed them inside rather than finding them. Some of the chests even required you do the whole section again just to obtain 1 diamond, which felt counterintuitive to the 'oh you found a secret, here have a reward'. eg. Silver mountain, some concecutive jumps across wooden platforms, make it to the other side then realise there is a chest just below you, which would cause you to repeat what you just did to obtain, and would take no skill to grab the chest. Possibly put in some just in case glowsticks for the final water area in the final castle. I was not able to jump past the block right above my head jumps above lava without touching the lava. Fortunately I had health pots a plenty and armour. Also i'm pretty sure the checkpoint bed around there will not work if the door is opened in the wrong direction. Every other jump I was able to do at least once without damage. (tries to forget the amount of deaths) After all those trips through the desert I kept the hammer just in case of long return journey cbf's After getting through hell and realising i'd have to climb all the way back up because I set my spawn down there I used the hammer trick to remove the bed and then teleport back to the main hub with magic mirror. I felt the run between the mine and the desert could've been shortened for convinience, that's alot of undodgable cacti to wade through. Also the run between the mine and hell could've been streamlined imo. Story/asthetics The story itself felt very short but it was stretched out over a long period, having to visit the first 3 dungeons before getting any new info. It did however wrap up nicely and wasn't confusing like some maps out there. Oh and extra dungeon crawling I never say no to, nice surprise hidden in there ;p The map in general looked great to me. The main hub/jungle/desert/hell/final castle all looked very nice. The silver mountain was a nice concept, I felt like there should've been a spelunker potion lying around somewhere to place emphasis on the ooooo shinies, but thats just me. Lightinig could have possibly been used to greater effect rather than relying on the player to light the way constantly. You made all these cool things and I can't even see them half the time?? That's all that comes to mind currently there's probably more I could comment on but need slepp. Anyway I enjoyed most of the map, looking forward to seeing if you make another one. ps. To all those having devourer troubles, find the musket in the main hub. Rule#2 Double tap.
I just downloaded this and its pretty fun, except for one complaint I have: there several points in which if you decide to go down, you can't get back up. (Unless I'm just terrible) I see a big cavern beneath me on the way to the water temple and decide to drop down. All i find is sand and water, and the walls have nothing for me to stand on to get back up. At least you put water there so i can drown myself to get back up... Other than that, it seems pretty sweet so far.
I FOUND A BUG then u jump safely with cloud in botle u land on top of williams house u can reach golden chest with motlen pix harpoons and lotsa stuff i didnt took any but it got me distracted from game
I found a "bug" involving WILLIAMS room. If you have the game set up to pause when the menu is open, or when you open a chest, you can reach 2 of the chests in that room if you jump and click on them at the top of your jump in just the right places. The chest will open and the game will pause so you stay there and can loot them. And yes I did grab the "hero" costume but that is all.
i dunno how to install i download then click on it and press open and it does not reconise the file type? help plz
You have to extract the files from the zip folder and then copy the .wld into your world folder, which is at Documents > My Games > Terraria > Worlds.
Ended up with 134 diamonds, i know there's more but the map is so large i don't feel like going back to check all the areas XD. Anyways, this map was fun, i found myself jumping all over the place finding diamonds. After beating skeletron i headed into the dungeon, just for fun, look around. And i was quite surprised at the golden room haha. ^.^. But as said earlier, there was alot of spawns in that room, luckily i wasn't wearing battle potion so i don't know how worse it can be. ^_^ Enjoyed this map, hope you make more in the future. ^.^
Are we allowed to make potions and stuff if we get the ingredients? If not, I think it'd be helpful to have it in the rules.
I have played this map with my friend. It is really awesome but I think you need to add a little bit more action.

Be sure to read the
On the day of his retirement, Nevada homicide detective Jerry Black (JACK NICHOLSON) lingers in his office one last time before putting on a brave face at the surprise party thrown in his honor. Humbled by the generosity of his colleagues, Jerry accepts their gift — an airline ticket for his dream fishing trip to Mexico with grace. But when the body of a murdered eight-year-old girl is discovered in the snow-blanketed mountains, the reluctant retiree is unable to step aside. Jerry offers his expertise at the crime scene, and takes it upon himself to deliver the devastating news to the victim's parents. (Use "BACK" On Your Browser To Return To Previous

York City's promotion chances finally disappeared for another season as Cambridge United ensured their own survival at Bootham Crescent.
The hosts went close during the first-half through long-range attemps from Ashley Chambers and Chris Carruthers that were both turned aside by visiting goalkeeper Danny Naismith.
The same pair were also wide with additional efforts from distance as York continued to enjoy most of the possession. That nearly brought them reward moments before the break as Naisbitt rescued his side again when denying Andre Boucaud [right] at his top corner after good work down the left between Leon Constantine and Chambers.
But this was a game York simply had to win if they were to retain any chance of promotion. Therefore their manager Gary Mills made a change at the interval with winger Peter Till replacing midfielder Jonathan Smith in a revised 4-4-2 set-up.
However, it was not until Chambers had a header from Till's cross tipped over and the diving Naisbitt also thwarted a firm low drive from substitute Michael Rankine, that they really suggested they were capable of breaking down their opponents despite neat approach work.
For their part Cambridge didn't offer much going forward until Michael Ingham blocked with his feet from Jordan Patrick, although there were a couple of important interventons from James Meredith and Liam Darville as the second-half progressed.
Then just before the end York had what appeared very worthwhile claims for a penalty turned down when Boucaud's shot struck the arm of James Jennings inside the area as the vital winning goal continued to escape them.

What word or phrase does your mother always say?
"deserving of or exciting suspicion," mid-14c., from Old French suspecious, from Latin suspiciosus "exciting suspicion" (see suspicion). Meaning "full of or inclined to feel suspicion" is attested from c.1400. Edgar Allan Poe (c.1845) proposed suspectful to take one of the two conflicting senses. Related: suspiciously; suspiciousness.

Email has replaced most personal letters. Find a reference to anything else that used to be more popular, especially before you were born.
Can you spot an ad for something delivered by mail?
Changes are coming in how we get letters, cards and mailed packages and where we can drop them off. The Postal Service, struggling with a huge deficit, proposes money-saving steps that include ending Saturday deliveries. Other changes could bring alternate-day pickups at blue street mailboxes. President Obama and a House subcommittee last week supported weekday-only mail service to save $3 billion a year, and also endorsed letting post offices profit from check-cashing fees, hunting license sales and other items beyond stamps and shipping supplies.
The White House and Congress are scrambling to help the agency reduce a $10-billion deficit. Mail volume has dropped 22 percent since 2006, and the fastest decline is in first-class letters and some business envelopes -- the most profitable type of mail. "We must do significantly more to return to profitability," Postmaster General Patrick said Donahoe said last week. His staff is studying 252 mail processing facilities for potential consolidation and reviewing 3,600 low-activity Post Offices for potential shutdown or scaled-back operation by private contractors. Pending ideas include letting postage rates climb beyond the rate of inflation. Another radical proposal would replace doorstep deliveries with locked mailboxes along curbs or at the end of driveways to save an estimated $3.5 billion annually by letting carriers serve more addresses. Postal official says: "Short-term solutions will not help the Postal Service. We need long-term, comprehensive legislation." -- Patrick Donahoe, postmaster general Congressman says: "You can only go so far before you force more and more people out of using the post office." -- Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif. Commentator says: "With the use of email and other electronic communication, it's clear the Postal Service has become a dinosaur: . . .

GRAND RAPIDS — They have an exclusive contract to provide radiology services for patients in most West Michigan hospitals, including Spectrum Health's, but the same physicians are in a legal battle with a Spectrum subsidiary -- Priority Health -- over how much they are paid for those services.
As a result, Advanced Radiology Services, West Michigan's largest group of radiologists, has dropped out of Priority Health's insurance network, and Priority has sued the doctors.
Priority claims Advanced Radiology's demands "would constitute unjust enrichment," driving up the cost of health care. Advanced Radiology counters that Priority is trying to force the doctors to take a pay cut, a move they say could hurt efforts to attract more top-notch radiologists.
The impasse is having no immediate impact on patients, since Advanced Radiology still is serving Priority's members while the two sides continue negotiating. If an agreement is not reached, Advanced could bill Priority members for any balance not covered by insurance. Continue reading the entry ...

Childhood Under Siege
"The assault on childhood in our corporate-dominated and profit-driven society, painfully dissected in this penetrating study, is a tragedy not only for the immediate victims but for hopes for a better future. It can be resisted, as Joel Bakan discusses. And it is urgent not to delay." (Noam Chomsky, author of Hopes and Prospects) |
From the writer of the hit film and international bestselling book The Corporation comes a shocking look at the widespread manipulation of children by profit-seeking corporations. Childhood Under Siege reveals how big business sees our children as resource to be mined for profit. From unabashed exploitation, clued-out parents, and governments that look the other way, it tells the chilling and at times darkly humorous story of business's plans to turn kids into obsessive and narcissistic mini-consumers, media addicts, cheap and pliable workers, and chemical industry guinea pigs.

Jeep Wrangler Replacement Blower Motor Information
Jeeps were manufactured especially for reliable driving experience in extreme environments. You chose a performance-optimized vehicle to enjoy its excellent engine power and performance, insure your decision and buy the best aftermarket parts and accessories. Take your automobile to a superior level of power and performance by installing performance components. A broken Jeep Wrangler Blower Motor might prevent a vehicle operator from de-icing or clearing fog from the windshield. The flow of air that results from the Blower Motor can be used to warm up or chill the cabin air on the inside of your car or truck. The Blower Motor is usually located under your vehicle's dashboard; if it is not operable, the cabin climate control won't work well. The Blower Motor is an important component of the car or truck's cooling and heating system as it drives the warm or cold air into the interior of your car or truck. A car's Blower Motor transfers air from the outside and through the air conditioning condenser or heating core depending on your demands. One place that takes the hassle out of finding parts is PartsGeek.com.
They are available for the following Jeep Wrangler years: 2013, 2012, 2011, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002, 2001, 2000, 1999, 1998, 1997, 1995, 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991, 1990, 1989, 1988, 1987, 13, 12, 11, 06, 05, 04, 03, 02, 01, 00, 99, 98, 97, 95, 94, 93, 92, 91, 90, 89, 88, 87.

The blower motor and blower motor resistor I received were much cheaper in cost and of higher quality than similar parts from my local "chain" auto parts store. The parts arrived very quickly. I'll definitely use them again.
this purchase not only from partsgeek.com but also the product itself has been great. I have a 2008 Jeep Wrangler Sahara unlimited that started to have bearing sound problems on the OEM blower fan. the Mopar parts for this is over $100. I'd take a chance and I'm really glad I did install this this past weekend. it fit perfect and has been silent. can't tell any difference over the factory motor for the exception of the pigtail lead. the OEM motor has the connector plug in directly into the back of the housing whereas this replacement motor has a pigtail where you plug it into. absolutely not a problem but you will want to use a tire app to take up the additional slack. I would absolutely by again and recommend.
works great so far,and the price was great,installed very easy
Had the blower motor go out and the part was here quick! I've ordered a number of parts from here and there has never been an issue. The delivery is quick and the parts are top notch. Thank you Parts Geek for making life a lot easier!
Great site!easy to navigate and find the product you are looking for.
Parts were delivered promptly. Everything was easy to install and my Jeep is back on the road.

A scientist from The Scripps Research Institute has won a four-year, $1.9 million grant from the National Institutes of Health to better understand the parasite that causes malaria, laying the groundwork to develop better drugs to combat the widespread and deadly disease.
"Many antimalarial drugs alleviate symptoms, but do not necessarily result in a complete cure because some malaria parasites are able to persist asymptomatically in the liver for months or years," said Scripps Research Professor Elizabeth Winzeler, who is principal investigator for the new grant. "We hope to find new targets that are critical to the liver stages as well as the blood stages with the long-term aim of designing better drugs."
A Complicated Lifecycle
Malaria is a nasty and often fatal disease, affecting about 250 million people every year in Africa, Asia, and the Americas, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Each year, more than 1 million people die of malaria, mostly children under the age of five. While significant strides had been made in curtailing the disease, for the last two decades malaria, has again been on the rise due to the emergence of drug-resistant parasites.
The parasite Plasmodium, which causes malaria, has a complicated lifecycle in two hosts--mosquitoes and humans (or other vertebrate). When a malaria-infected mosquito feeds on a person, the parasite enters the human body. Within 30 minutes, the parasite has infected liver cells, where it remains anywhere from eight days to several months without causing noticeable symptoms.
When this period is over, however, the parasite (now in a different form) leaves the liver and enters red blood cells, where it grows and multiplies. When the infected red blood cells eventually burst, the parasite and Plasmodium toxins are released into the bloodstream, and the person feels sick. Symptoms include fever, chills, headache, and other flulike symptoms; in severe cases, patients can experience convulsions, coma, and liver and kidney failure, which can be fatal.
If a mosquito bites the infected person at this point, the parasite will enter the mosquito, where it will continue the cycle by maturing into a form that can infect the next human host.
Untapped Opportunities
Because most antimalarial drugs have targeted the malaria parasite in its blood stages, Winzeler believes there are untapped opportunities to combat the disease in the liver stages of the parasite's lifecycle. That's where the new grant comes in.
The new grant from the NIH National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases will fund research in the Winzeler lab investigating pathways essential to parasite development in both blood and liver stages. Specifically, the lab will look at the development of parasite's resistance to antimalarial compounds in culture. The team will then endeavor to identify and characterize the genetic mutations enabling the drug resistance, providing new information on potential drug targets.
"The work may lead to a better understanding of how to treat tissue-stage malaria, provide new antibiotic resistance genes, and provide information about how eukaryotic pathogens become resistant to drugs," Winzeler said.

The Cat's Eye Nebula from Hubble
April 24, 2011
Staring across interstellar space, the alluring Cat's Eye nebula lies three thousand light-years from Earth. A classic planetary nebula, the Cat's Eye (NGC 6543) represents a final, brief yet glorious phase in the life of a sun-like star. This nebula's dying central star may have produced the simple, outer pattern of dusty concentric shells by shrugging off outer layers in a series of regular convulsions. But the formation of the beautiful, more complex inner structures is not well understood. Seen so clearly in this sharp Hubble Space Telescope image, the truly cosmic eye is over half a light-year across. Of course, gazing into the Cat's Eye, astronomers may well be seeing the fate of our sun, destined to enter its own planetary nebula phase of evolution ... in about 5 billion years.
