why this car amps?!
Hello guys and sorry for my bad English.
Why is it big different between channels??? I have 4 Macrom synthesis1000 evolution car amps, which I can adjust in an independent way. I have big difference in the channels. The left channel has more power, which the right channel has not. I mean the difference between left and right is about 3dB and it is a big difference. I know all amps have a little difference between gains but not 3dB! When I adjust the left channel about 11 o'clock and the right channel about 2 o'clock then I have the same power. All my 4 amps have exactly the same problems, which the left channel, have more power and right channel have less power. These amps have a switch in circuit witch I can deactivate preamp and crossover and in this mode the amp is driven with a fixed sensitivity of 1.1V and the phase rotates 180' only right channel. (This mode because the sound quality will be the same as really home hifi amps) Therefore is important the right speaker output connection must be inverted. Now, I have no control over my input sensitivity gain adjustment and crossover. Both channel have the same output power. Which in this case it is correct. But I don't got it, when I have the switch on built-in preamp which in this case I activated input sensitivity gain and crossover the channels is different... This amps cost $1500 each and are very expensive. Now, Macrom say it is normal because into the pre-amp section there is an inverter circuit between channels, this circuit allows the mono configuration into the output speakers which I have very difficult to believe. Thanks a lot if some guys can help me. |

Aztec Caramels
Author Notes: I added ceylon and cassia cinnamon, chipotle chile, and some unsweetened chocolate to these caramels to give them some kick. I was pretty lazy with the chocolate, but it worked out fine. If you want you could use either ceylon or cassia cinnamon alone, but I like the more complex flavor of the combination. If you want a fancy presentation you can apply some edible gold leaf to the caramels after you cut them. I based my recipe on Ina Garten's fleur de sel caramel recipe. - hardlikearmour
Makes about 100 caramels (9- by 13-inch pan)
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond brand preferred)
- 1/2 of a 5-inch ceylon cinnamon stick, broken up
- 1/2 of a 3-inch cassia cinnamon stick, broken up
- 1 whole dried chipotle chile
- 2 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate (I used Ghiradelli)
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 3 cups sugar
- 1/2 cup corn syrup
- In a medium sauce pan heat the cream, butter, cinnamon, chile, chocolate, and salt over low heat for 20 - 30 minutes. The goal is to infuse the cream with flavor, but keep it below a simmer. You will need to stir it occasionally to keep the chocolate from scorching. The mixture will be salty, should taste of cinnamon, and have a little heat from the chile. Remember to occasionally stir as you proceed with the recipe.
- While cream mixture is heating, line a 9- by 13-inch pan with parchment paper, so the paper is only going up 2 opposite sides (essentially forming a sling to remove the caramel with later). Spray with neutral flavored cooking spray.
- Dissolve the cream of tartar in the water in a 6-quart stock pot. Add in the sugar and corn syrup, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat swirling pan occasionally to dissolve the sugar. Once sugar is dissolved and mixture is boiling you will need to keep a pretty close eye on the pan. If you are using a candy thermometer you will notice the mixture hovers near the boiling point for a while then starts to climb fairly rapidly. As the mixture approaches 310º F, you will want to start swirling it fairly frequently as caramelization is imminent. Once caramel color is to your liking remove pan from heat. The pan will retain some heat so I like to remove the caramelized sugar mixture from the heat at about 325º F, or when it is a golden brown color.
- Slowly pour the warm cream mixture through a fairly fine mesh strainer into the the sugar mixture. It will boil violently and create hot steam, so use caution. Stir with a wooden spoon until sugar has all dissolved into the cream.
- Return caramel mixture to medium to medium-high heat and bring the mixture up to 244-245º F, or lower end of firm ball stage (if you drop about a 1/2 teaspoon of the mixture into a bowl of refrigerator cold water it should form a ball, that is not soft but still malleable.) Stir often, scraping the bottom of the pan. As you get close to your target temperature you may want to turn the heat down to low if you are using a gas stove, or off if you are using electric to slow things down. Your caramels can go from too soft to tooth breaking within a short time frame. You will also want to stir close to continuously as you get close to your target temp to prevent burning.
- Pour caramel mixture into prepared 9- by 13-inch pan. Allow to cool at room temperature until barely warm to the touch. Use parchment paper to remove from the pan, then cut caramel into 1-inch squares, or whatever size pieces you prefer. Wrap individually with waxed paper, and store in an airtight container.
- Note: Caramel making is a bit trial-and-error based on humidity and other factors. If your caramels come out too soft, modify the final temperature up 1-4 degrees. If they come out too hard, modify down. This recipe scales down by half to an 8-inch square pan if you want to make a smaller amount or feel like experimenting!

hla, in my continued cross- comparison of various caramel recipes (6 recipes incl david L., bittman, martha stewart) only you and Davil L do the 2 part process, taking up to 310 , adding ingredients and taking back up to approx 250/260. I'm wondering what effect that technique has over the other method of taking everything together up to 250/260. He didn't explain why he chose his method; did you choose that technique for a reason? thnx again for your help.
about 3 years ago
hardlikearmour is a trusted home cook.
I think (but don't have any scientific proof) the caramels have a better flavor if you caramelize the sugar before you combine it with the cream. Sugar itself caramelizes starting at about 320º F, so with the other technique I think you're getting more color from the cream caramelizing than the sugar itself caramelizing. Ina Garten also caramelizes the sugar first, as does Alton Brown. Using most of my recipes 250º will make a very hard caramel.

p.s. what is the cream of tartar for? do these have a deep dark chocolate flavor or a lighter chocolate? thnx again!
about 3 years ago
hardlikearmour is a trusted home cook.
The cream of tartar is to help prevent crystallization. I wanted to minimize the amount of corn syrup I used so scaled it back and added the cream of tartar. Cream of tartar inverts (i.e. breaks) sucrose molecules into glucose and fructose molecules. Having some glucose and fructose in the mix helps to prevent the sucrose from binding together into sugar crystals.

Price: $125.00
Item# :2000593
Ideal for travelers and outdoor adventurers, this solar rechargeable watch is enhanced with a battery to ensure accurate time even if it's stored away from sufficient light sources. It delivers the instant information that travelers need with no drop in split-second precision.
Not available for shipment outside of the U.S. and Canada.
In the U.S., the accuracy and speed that your watch and clock will receive signal updates depends on your proximity to the U.S. atomic clock in Fort Collins, CO. This means that the majority of personal atomic clocks and watches will synchronize only within the continental United States, and may not synchronize correctly in Hawaii or Alaska or on continents other than North America. Personal atomic clocks and watches work only in some areas of Canada and Mexico.
Another limitation of home atomic clocks and watches is that they may not receive the NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) signal within large buildings containing steel construction. Moving clocks and watches closer to windows in these types of buildings will usually resolve the synchronization problem.
Bison leather band. 1 3/4" diam. face; 10"L. Battery included. We recommend having a jeweler replace the battery in this watch. It is intentionally challenging to open the case in order to protect the mechanism.
Hands are luminescent (glow in the dark). Water resistant to 165 feet.

Wrong Instructions
By Larey
from Kirkland, Washington
The manual that came with the watch is for a three button model and this is the two button version. Following the wrong instructions results in the watch hands not syncing with the digital readout. The two button instructions can be downloaded from the manufacturer's website. The suggested remedy for this model is to bring the watch into a jeweler and have them take out the battery, put it back in and then set the watch within three minutes.Had the correct instructions been packed with the watch, I suspect I would be wearing it now.

Most attacks on computer systems involve exploiting software flaws, or inserting malicious code into programs. But there's increasing reasons to worry about hardware hacks, too.
A stream of data breaches and revelations about surveillance techniques by government agencies have made many companies wary about potential threats to confidential information. Few of the incidents have involved modifications to computer chips, but industry and government officials expect that may change–and the results could be serious, with semiconductors a foundation for everything from smartphones to power grids.
"We know it can be done," says Keith Marzullo, director of the National Science Foundation's division of computer and network systems. "It's important to get ahead of the attackers."
So the NSF and an industry group called the Semiconductor Research Corporation are teaming up to fund research aimed at heading off such problems. Initial company participants are Advanced Micro Devices, Freescale Semiconductor, Intel and Mentor Graphics.
The three-year program, which is expected to issue $9 million in grants to university researchers, is expected to include efforts to make semiconductors more resistant to tampering and authentication schemes to spot if chips have been improperly modified.
It's difficult to modify most chips once they have left the factory. So much of the concern focuses on what might happen before that.
Chips once were mainly designed inside a single company, often at a single location. But the process has become much more complex, with some products requiring billions of transistors and designs for blocks of circuitry purchased from independent companies in different cities and countries.
"There is a lot of handing off among groups, and the increasing use of third-party intellectual property," says Celia Merzbacher, a vice president for innovative partnerships at the consortium known as the SRC.
Typical testing procedures ensure that chips do what they were designed to do. But they don't necessarily spot "side channels," or circuitry that might be added to do additional improper functions, Merzbacher said.
Another class of problems involves counterfeit chips, which have sometimes wound up in military systems and raised concerns about compromising their effectiveness. In many cases, such chips are harvested from electronic devices that are thrown away. Unscrupulous businesses then modify their packaging and sell them in place of new, more-expensive chips, pocketing big profits, Merzbacher said.
The research effort will also focus on new ways to detect such counterfeits, which have been a focus of government hearings.
Asked whether any safeguards that result from the research activity might conflict with surveillance activities by the National Security Agency, Marzullo said that was not a concern for the NSF. "They don't tell us what to do and not to do," he said.

Josef Kajetán Tyl
Josef Kajetán Tyl | |
Portrait of Josef Kajetán Tyl by Jan Vilímek
Born | Kutná Hora, Bohemia, Austrian Empire |
4 February 1808
Died | 11 July 1856 Plzeň, Bohemia, Austrian Empire |
(aged 48)
Occupation | Writer |
Nationality | Czech |
Genre | Romanticism |
Notable works | Fidlovačka Strakonický dudák |
Spouse | Magdalena Forchheimová |
Partner | Anna Forchheimová-Rajská |
Relatives | Jiří Tyl (father) Barbora Králiková (mother) |
Josef Kajetán Tyl (4 February 1808 – 11 July 1856; Czech pronunciation: [ˈjɔzɛf ˈkajɛtaːn ˈtɪl]) was a significant Czech dramatist, writer and actor. He was a notable figure of the Czech National Revival movement and is best known as the author of the current national anthem of the Czech Republic titled Kde domov můj.
Josef Kajetán Tyl was the first-born son of Jiří Tyl, a tailor and retired military band oboe player, and his wife Barbora née Králíková, daughter of a miller and groats maker. He was christened Josef František, yet this name was changed into Josef Kajetán when he underwent confirmation at the age of eleven. The family surname had several written forms – Tylly, Tylli, Tilly or Tyll – and was later changed to Tyl. Josef Kajetán had four younger siblings: one brother and three sisters, but except sister Anna none of them survived till adulthood.
After finishing elementary school, Josef Kajetán studied at a grammar school in Prague and in Hradec Králové. Among his teachers belonged the leading Czech linguist and writer Josef Jungmann and the playwright Václav Kliment Klicpera. After finishing his studies at the grammar school, he started to study philosophy in Prague.
Already as a student, Tyl started to be active in theatre and finally left school to become a member of the Hilmer travelling theatre company. When the company disbanded after two years of journeying around the countryside, he returned to Prague and got a job of a clerk in an infantry regiment's office. In his free time he wrote theatre plays and worked as an actor at the Estates Theatre. Due to his abilities he could leave his job in the military in 1842, as he was given a full-time job at the Estates Theatre, where he became the director, organizer and playwright of the Czech ensemble in the otherwise mainly German theatre.
In 1833 Tyl became a redactor of a renewed Czech magazine called Květy (Blossoms), which exists until today. He was also a redactor of the magazines Vlastimil and Pražský posel (Prague Messenger), and of the newspaper Sedlské noviny (Peasant newspapers), that were later banned because of his political involvement.
Tyl used several pen names that were often derived from the name of his home town Kutná Hora, for example Horský, Horník, Kutnohorský and Vítek.
In the revolutionary year 1848 Tyl became politically active and was briefly a member of the Austrian parliament in Vienna. Because he fought for the independence of the Czech nation from the Austrian-Hungarian Empire, he was later marked as politically unreliable by the authorities and expelled from the Estates Theatre. He wanted to found his own travelling theatre company but his request was rejected, so in 1851 he joined an existing one and left for a tour, together with his family. Yet the theatre company did not fare well, and the Tyl family ended up in poverty. In 1856, during his theatre's stay in Pilsen, the 48 years old Tyl died of an unknown illness and was buried at a local cemetery.
A theatre in Plzeň was later named in his honor Divadlo Josefa Kajetána Tyla.
Tyl was an author of several novels and short stories, he is however most famous for his about 20 theatre plays, which can be divided into several groups.
Plays describing the life of the Czech society in Tyl's time period[edit]
- Paličova dcera (Arsonist's daughter)
- Pražský flamendr (Prague playboy)
- Bankrotář (Bankrupter)
- Chudý kejklíř (Poor Juggler)
Plays portraying famous events from Czech history (especially the Hussite movement)[edit]
- Jan Hus
- Žižka z Trocnova (Žižka of Trocnov)
- Krvavý soud aneb kutnohorští havíři (A Bloody Verdict: The Miners of Kutná Hora)
- Krvavé křtiny, aneb Drahomíra a její synové (Bloody Baptism, or Drahomír and Her Sons)
Plays featuring fairy tale characters (fairies, witches)[edit]
- Strakonický dudák (The Bagpiper of Strakonice) – one of his most famous works
- Lesní panna aneb cesta do Ameriky (The Forest Maiden: A Journey to America)
- Tvrdohlavá žena (The Stubborn Woman)
- Jiříkovo vidění (George's Vision)
- Čert na zemi (Devil On Earth)
Other plays[edit]
- Paní Marjánka, matka pluku (Lady Marjánka, Mother of the Regiment)
- Fidlovačka – a song from this play, named Kde domov můj, became the Czech national anthem in 1918
- Slepý mládenec (The Blind Young Man)
Tyl's wife was a Czech actress Magdalena Forchheimová (1803–1870), who performed under the pen name Skalná. Tyl met her in 1829 during his first tour with a travelling theatre company, where they both performed. They married on 28 January 1839, yet their marriage stayed childless, as after a still birth Magdalena couldn't have any more children.
In 1841 Tyl fell in love with his wife's much younger sister Anna, who was also a talented actress and performed under the pen name Anna Rajská (1824–1903). They started an affair, Tyl did not divorce or leave his wife however and all three of them lived together in one household till his death. Anna bore her brother-in-law eight illegitimate children, their youngest son was born one month after Tyl died. Their sons went by their mother's surname Forchheim, daughters were allowed by the authorities to use father's surname Tyl.
On 24 April 1861, five years after Tyl's death, Anna married Tyl's colleague, actor Josef Ladislav Turnovský, with whom she had three more children. Turnovský took care not only of Tyl's family but also of his legacy by saving his manuscripts and publishing his works.

Piombino is a little seaport and a village in Tuscany, Italy, on the medium coast of Tyrrhenian sea, in front of Elba Island and at the northern side of Maremma.It has an ancient historical center, derived from the time in which it was the Etruscans' port, in the surroundings of Populonia. In the Middle Ages, it was instead an important port of Pisa's republic.
Its hinterland hosts a considerable industrial area. Its port is still intensively working, both for indistries and for tourism, with ferry-boats to Portoferraio (Elba) and Olbia (Sardinia).

text: Tokyo 2020 Olympic volleyball and beach volleyball plans The delegation included Japanese volleyball legend Arakida Yuko, who was part of the team that won gold at the 1976 Montreal Olympics and managed the Japanese women's volleyball team from 2005-2007 and 2009-2012, is now sports director for Tokyo 2020. She was joined in Lausanne by Sakata Hiroshi and Nakamori Yasuhiro. The proposed venues for volleyball and beach volleyball would both bring athletes and fans to Tokyo Bay's waterfront. The 15,000-seat Ariake Arena, towards the eastern side of the bay, would be home to the volleyball competition while the 12,000-seat Shiokaze Park, further west, would host the beach volleyball matches. The Tokyo bid is promoting the city's ideal environment for athletes, with world-renown safety, cleanliness and abundance of greenery, as well as its exceptional accommodations, infrastructure and transport.

In an exciting scene from Infinity's Shore by David Brin, Earth starship Streaker makes a dangerous journey deep into the red giant star Izmunuti, en route to Jijo. Authorized by David Brin.
Go to the T-shirts page for ordering instructions.
The Terragens Corps of Engineers commemorates the construction of Streaker, the star-crossed starship starring in David Brin's Uplift series.
Ever wanted to be in multiple places at once? Pretend you can with this temporary tattoo! Be your own ditto, when you wear the Universal Kilns logo from David Brin's Kiln People on your forehead.
Go to the Temporary Tattoos page for ordering instructions.
For each item you buy from my store, I'm donating a portion of the purchase price to the charity of your choice. This is a list of charities suggested by members of Brin-L:
World Wildlife Fund: Protect animal species, with and without Potential.
Ashoka: Help social entrepreneurs use smart ideas to build a better world.
The Nature Conservancy: Protect natural habitats around the world.
Conservation Fund: Protect natural habitats in the US.
If there's an additional charity you'd like to see here, please email me about it, and I'll add it to the list.
My CafePress store is now open, and ready to sell t-shirts and other merchandise decorated by my illustrations. Big thanks go to David Brin for allowing me to sell items based on his works! I hope they help promote his books.
The first item is a T-shirt featuring a nice, big still render of the scene used in my Izmunuti animation.
CafePress shirts have a major disadvantage -- they only come in white and light gray. Do you want darker colors like black? I know I do, so I'm now making my own shirts using the same illustrations as the CafePress store, and selling them through this site. Go to the T-Shirt Store for ordering instructions.
I'm now selling temporary tattoos with the Universal Kilns logo from Kiln People. They're sized to stick on your forehead, so you too can be a ditto! They're an essential part of a ditto costume, perfect for Halloween or Masquerade at science fiction conventions.
The idea came directly from David Brin himself. He'd really like to see a bunch of dittos running around Worldcon. :-)
My next big project is a shirt featuring blueprints of Streaker. It's the shirt given to the engineers and crew that built the ship, to commemorate Streaker's completion. It was a big job refitting the ship from second-hand alien hull to the pride of Earthclan. The shirt will include the Streaker mission patch, side, front, and rear views of the ship, the Terragens Corps of Engineers logo, and a short description of the refit process. I'm also planning a related poster with everything on the shirt, plus pictures of the four steps of the refit process.
Obviously, only the humans and neo-chimps can wear T-shirts. I'm thinking neo-fins get printed work harnesses, instead. I currently have no way to make those, but in the unlikely event that I ever get a shirt order from a dolphin, I'll be happy to find some way to accommodate er. ;-)

Image continuity at different levels of zoom for fringe patterns |
Optics Express, Vol. 20, Issue 1, pp. 7-16 (2012)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (2138 KB)
Fringe patterns are raw output data from many measurement systems including laser interferometers and moiré systems. For instruments with a range of zoom levels to measure the object at different scales, a technique (algorithm) is needed to combine and/or compare data to obtain information at different levels of details. A technique to keep the continuity of output images both at different levels of zoom and within the same level of zoom is developed and demonstrated. Image registration is used to correlate images, find relative zoom values, and obtain shift between images in the lateral plane. Fringe patterns from a moiré system and a laser interferometer are used as images to be stitched and demonstrate the technique. Interferomteric fringes are used to find the required parameters to inter-relate locations and scale of the fringe patterns at different levels of zoom. The calculated parameters are scale and translation in both directions; these parameters make it possible to locate the coordinates of the region that the measurement system is zoomed in on, related to the area with lower magnification and relative locations of images within the same level of zoom. Results show that this technique is capable of finding the scale and shift parameters within the resolution of one pixel and therefore can restore continuity between images at different levels of zoom.

Grading Scale
90-100 Rare Prospect
Player demonstrates rare abilities and can create mismatches that have an obvious impact on the game. Is a premier college player that has all the skill to take over a game and play at a championship level. He rates in the top 5 players in the nation at his position and is considered a first round draft prospect.
80-89 Outstanding Prospect
Player has abilities to create mismatches versus most opponents in the NFL. A feature player that has an impact on the outcome of the game. Cannot be shut down by a single player and plays on a consistent level week in and week out. He rates in the top 10 at his position and is considered a second round draft prospect.
70-79 Solid Prospect
Still a standout player at the college level that is close to being an elite player. He has no glaring weaknesses and will usually win his individual matchups, but does not dominate in every game, especially when matched up against the top players in the country. He will usually rate in the top third of players at his position and is considered a third round draft prospect.
60-69 Good Prospect
This player is an good starter that will give a solid effort week in and week out, but he is overmatched versus the better players in the nation. His weaknesses will be exposed against top competition. He is usually a prospect that is missing something from his game. For example, he has the size and skills to be an outstanding prospect, but lacks the speed. He will usually rate in the top half of the players at his position and is considered a middle round draft choice.
50-59 Adequate Prospect
These are usually players that play at a high level in college, but lack some measurables or skills to play at that same level in the NFL. He may be a player that has a lot of developmental qualities, or could be a player that will contribute right away on special teams or in a situational capacity. He will usually rate in the second-third at his position and is considered a fifth round draft choice.
21-49 Borderline Draft Prospect
These are players that teams like something about, but certainly do not have the full package in terms of NFL talent. A lot of times, teams will take chances on character players or developmental type athletes with this grade. And often, these are players that come from smaller schools or did not standout at the college level. NFL teams are looking for 'diamonds in the rough' with this type of prospect. He will usually rate in the bottom third of players at his position and will be considered a late round draft choice or un-drafted free agent.
20 Free Agent Prospect
These are players that did not make our original 'evaluation list' but are prospects that need to be monitored. Especially in the pre-season, these players will fluctuate up and down depending on performance in their final year of eligibility.
10 Not a legitimate Prospect
These are players that lack NFL measurables and/or skills. They are players that we feel would not even make a solid contribution as a training camp body.

It's been a pretty good week for trainer Kelly Breen.
On Tuesday, he welcomed his third child into the world as his wife Melissa gave birth to a baby boy who has been named Declan Richard.
On Friday, Breen got the report from his New York assistant that 2011 Belmont Stakes winner Ruler On Ice burned up the Belmont training track by working five furlongs in 57.90 seconds. Ruler On Ice worked out of the gate and in company with Coco Ecolo, who was timed in 59.27 seconds for the same distance.
It was the first work for Ruler On Ice since he won a third-level allowance race at Aqueduct on Jan. 30.
Breen said Ruler On Ice didn't work during the month of February, owing more to the inclement weather than any physical issues with the horse.
"I was being a little cautious not to do anything wrong right now," Breen said by phone from Florida. "Maybe that's why he had a little bit of extra energy for a fast workout today. Hopefully, next week we'll be able to harness it a little bit better."
Breen said the Grade 3, $150,000 Excelsior Stakes at Aqueduct on March 23 is a potential spot for Ruler On Ice's next start.
"That's a very good option as of right now," Breen said. "I'll go over it with [owners] George and Lori Hall the next couple of days and run it by them and see what they say."

What to make of Adam Morrison | 09.16.10 at 11:26 am ET |
During the Las Vegas summer league, representatives from the Celtics attended a workout for Adam Morrison, the former Gonzaga star who would rank as Michael Jordan's biggest draft blunder if not for taking Kwame Brown first in 2000. The Celtics worked him out again Wednesday at their facility in Waltham along with Rashad McCants, Cuttino Mobley and Trenton Hassell.
Morrison came into the NBA with the reputation as a shooter, but he has never cracked 37 percent from the floor in his three seasons and hasn't even seen much playing time since his disastrous rookie year. Morrison was traded to the Lakers for Vladimir Radmanovic and barely saw the court.
To date the Celtics have not so much as issued an invitation to Morrison, or anyone else from Wednesday's workout, but they are clearly not done tinkering with the roster.
When Tony Allen left for Memphis, Danny Ainge moved to shore up the wing by re-signing Marquis Daniels and coming to terms with Von Wafer and Delonte West. The contracts for Wafer and West are not fully guaranteed, which leaves an opening for an actual competition in training camp. (You can throw Oliver Lafayette and Tony Gaffney into the mix as well).
At issue is the backup small forward slot behind Paul Pierce, which was also an issue last year and the year before that. Daniels has the inside track for the job and rookie Luke Harangody could also work into the rotation provided he can make jumpers and play defense at an acceptable level.
But the Celtics lack size at the position and have a general need for shooting everywhere off the bench. That's because Doc Rivers is already envisioning a second unit that can work off Shaquille O'Neal's work in the post.
Like Morrison, McCants has been a first round bust, albeit one with a strong college track record. Hassell has more experience and just finished a very generous long-term contract granted by Kevin McHale when he was with the Timberwolves, but he is known more as a defender than a shooter.
Of the four, Mobley is the most intriguing. He enjoyed a long and underrated career as a top-notch scorer for the Rockets and Clippers. Mobley was traded to the Knicks in late 2008, but he retired with a serious heart ailment. In June, Mobley told the New York Daily News that he was contemplating a comeback.
It's not clear what Ainge's intentions are yet, but with the start of training camp looming at the end of the month, it does appear that he's continuing to look for the right pieces.
Celtics looking at McCants and Morrison | 09.15.10 at 1:24 pm ET |
WALTHAM — Two former college stars are in Waltham this week, working out with the Celtics, a source familiar with the team told WEEI.com.
Former North Carolina star Rashad McCants and Gonzaga standout Adam Morrison are in town this week working out for the Celtics. Morrison worked out on Tuesday and had a second session scheduled for Wednesday. The third overall pick in the 2006 draft by the Bobcats, Morrison spent 2½ seasons in Charlotte ' missing one season with a knee injury ' before being traded to the Lakers, where he played limited minutes while his team won two NBA titles.
McCants starred on the 2005 Tar Heels team that captured the NCAA title and played with the Minnesota Timberwolves and Sacramento Kings and was involved with reality TV star Khloe Kardashian before she met and married Lamar Odom.
Yahoo! Sports reported that the Celtics are set to hire Nets assistant Roy Rogers to coach the big men. He would replace Clifford Ray. Rogers briefly played for the Celtics during his three seasons in the NBA in the late 1990s.
The Celtics open camp in Newport, R.I. on Sept. 28, with their season opener set for Tuesday, Oct. 26 at home against LeBron James and the Miami Heat.

Health Information Exchanges to Combine Analytics, 'Actionable' Data: IDC
Health Information Exchanges to Combine Analytics, 'Actionable' Data: IDC
Brian T. Horowitz
Posted 2012-07-18
IDC's new MarketScape report describes a transition in health information exchanges from simply sharing patient records to incorporating analytics, actionable data and patient engagement.
Health information exchanges, which enable the sharing of electronic health records throughout states or communities, are evolving to incorporate additional applications for analytics, "actionable" data and patient engagement, according to IDC's latest MarketScape report. IDC released its report in two stages: one on "platform" HIEs July 16 and one on "packaged" HIEs July 12.
The 16 HIE companies IDC studied for the platform report include AT&T,
(a joint venture between Microsoft and GE Healthcare), Medicity, InterSystems and Oracle. The report on packaged HIEs covered companies such as eClinicalWorks, Infor and PatientKeeper.
With packaged HIEs, health care organizations are moving from simply sharing health records in order to qualify for meaningful-use incentives to trying to provide "actionable information" for accountable care organizations (ACOs) to collaborate, according to IDC. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, or "
," which the Supreme Court upheld June 28, calls for doctors to join ACOs to be accountable for patient outcomes rather than simply being paid per visit. ACOs will draw on data from HIEs for analytics purposes, as well as for collaboration between providers and from data gathered from remote-patient monitoring, Lynne Dunbrack, program director of connected health IT strategies at IDC Health Insights, told
The market for supplying technology to HIEs is fragmented, according to IDC. Various HIEs incorporate portals, clinical messaging, information management, managed network services and composite applications, which combine multiple functions into a single software program. The transition to forming ACOs will lead to consolidation of HIEs, according to the report. "HIE is an evolving volatile market," said Dunbrack. "There's a fair amount of consolidation," she added. AT&T and Verizon have been expanding their HIE initiatives, she noted. AxSys Technologies, Certified Data Systems, dbMotion and Informatics Corporation of America are companies to watch, according to Dunbrack. "It will be interesting to see if they remain independent or end up being acquired," she said. In New York, a statewide HIE has been taking shape as the
Statewide Health Information Network of New York (SHIN-NY) announced on June 6 it had expanded
to include Brooklyn Health Information Exchange; e-Health Network of Long Island; and Taconic Health Information Community (TINC) Exchange, a network that connects health records for the Hudson Valley region. As part of the transition, HIEs will take a platform as a service (PaaS) form, which incorporates a software development kit so that software companies can sell them through system integrators and value-added resellers, said Dunbrack. "Platform plays have gone to great lengths to be easy to deploy," said Dunbrack. In contrast, packaged HIEs are Web services that can be built out, Dunbrack explained. Exchanging data in HIEs is more emphasized in
Stage 2
of the federal government's meaningful-use incentive program, she noted. HIEs also need to better incorporate
security and privacy measures
as well as plans for financial viability, according to IDC's April 2 report. Dunbrack highlighted Carefx and Medicity as two HIE vendors that allow for privacy and security measures while enabling health record exchange. "Medicity has a strong market penetration, fairly diverse set of customers, and both of these vendors are profiled in the [July 16 IDC] platform report," Dunbrack noted.

MSS 095, Item 032, Puymaurin, Jean-Pierre-Casimir de Marcassus, baron de,
Processed and encoded by Teresa K. Nevins, October 2009.
Baron Jean-Pierre-Casimir Marcassus de Puymaurin (1757-1841) was a member of a wealthy and distinguished family from Languedoc. He had a lifelong interest in politics, rural economy, manufacturing, and chemical experiments, and was also a noted art collector.
In 1787, Puymaurin introduced into France the technique of engraving on glass using hydrofluoric acid. He was the director of the imperial factory at Albi, a manufacturing town near his home in Toulouse, that specialized in the manufacture of woad indigo and various textile products, including coarse linen clothes, sacking, cottons, tablecloths, and handkerchiefs. He was the first to demonstrate the viability of extracting a dye from woad that equaled the quality of indigo imported from Bengal and Guatemala. He managed to escape notice during the French Revolution, avoiding political involvement until the early nineteenth century. Among the political offices Puymaurin held after 1805, he was named director of the royal mint (la Monnaie Royale des Médailles) in Paris in 1816.
This bound nineteenth-century French manuscript is a sort of commonplace book, written in part and compiled by Jean-Pierre-Casimir Marcassus de Puymaurin, records his observations about many different subjects, including agriculture, rural economic concerns, manufacturing developments, scientific experiments, medical and pharmacological remedies and recipes, historical events, and political topics.
The manuscript contains passages, entries, and notes written by several hands that Puymaurin apparently gathered together and combined with his own contributions. The book appears to include observations written by his father, Nicolas Joseph Marcassus de Puymaurin (1718-1791), who was syndic-general of the state of Languedoc, and possibly his grandfather, whose baronage was created by Louis XV in 1724. Puymaurin divided the manuscript into four sections, each with a title page, and several of the topics Puymaurin included in this manuscript also appeared in published form.
This item forms part of MSS 095 Miscellaneous Scientific and Humanities Manuscripts collection.

: Since I've gone off the pills I've been retaining water, severly! It very uncomfortable, what can i do about this?
I am unsure why you would be retaining water except that bisacodyl aka dulcolax does deplete your electrolytes. Given this factor I would assume that your electrolytes were or are out of balance possibly. I would consider letting your doctor know about this so they can decide if it is something that needs to be checked into or not. In the meantime be sure to get plenty of potassium by eating an orange, banana, or tomatoe every day to keep your potassium in check. I wish I could offer more help but I am clueless on this one.
