The Effect of Phonograph Cartridge Stylus Tip Finish on Record Noise Level
One of the characteristics of a worn phonograph record is its reproduced noise. Most studies of record wear consider the operating conditions of the phonograph record and cartridge and assume the employment of a well polished stylus tip. In this paper we will describe measurements of record wear or noise as related to gradations of stylus tip finish.

Depot plans exhibit for Roy Rogers' 100th birthday
In celebration of Roy Rogers' 100th Birthday, the Depot Community Room is hosting an exhibit called "Happy Trails: A 1950s Cowboy Christmas" now through the end of December.
Do you remember waiting eagerly every Saturday for "The Roy Rogers Show"?
Were you unable to sleep on Christmas Eve, hoping Santa would bring you the cap gun and holster on your wish list?
Then the Community Room's new exhibit will offer a trip down memory lane.
The Community Room will have on display items that would have been on the wish list of any girl and boy in 1950s Henderson. The display focuses specifically on the height of the singing Cowboy craze, when every little boy wanted his own six-shooter and every girl wanted an outfit just like Dale Evans.
View the Cowboy Christmas tree as you listen to Gene Autry sing your favorite Christmas songs.
The exhibit will also include tapes of the radio shows and the popular television series starring Roy Rogers and Dale Evans.
The Community Room is located inside the Depot on the riverfront and is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday.
The Community Room will be closed this Thursday through Saturday, Nov. 24-26 for Thanksgiving.
For information, call 830-9707 or email Donna Spencer at email@example.com.

Jim Kwitchoff still has the texts in his phone. Early last September, the UB coaches put Javon McCrea through a one-man workout to evaluate his readiness for his junior season. They were not impressed. Kwitchoff, the Bulls' assistant, asked McCrea how he would have graded himself on a 1-to-10 scale. McCrea texted back "5". Kwitchoff said it was a 2 or 3.

Directed by Brenda Chapman (a first for women in animation), scored to spectacular effect by Hans Zimmer and Stephen Schwartz, and voiced by, among others, Voldemort, Batman, and Professor X, the ambitious film features gorgeous, striking visuals and tastefully integrated CGI in nearly every scene. It also manages the improbable feat of maturing beyond cartoon clichés while humanizing the prophet's journey from carefree scion to noble (and remorseful) liberator without offending half the planet -- while still being quite a fun ride.

Ok if now you don't like me what else can I do... LOL Seriously, I wish you my best in your search, everyday is a new day. Laurent.

Either it goes in and he's the hero, or he misses and he's the goat, he felt confident trying the move though because it worked in practice.
The move he did today was a move he probably tried out in practice as well, and decided to use it in the game.
I agree with the announcers though, they said Giroux tried the move because Anderson stopped everything else he threw on net,
So he might as well switch it up
Giroux is a very grounded/humble kid.
I agree with the general sentiment, though I haven't seen the move (yet) myself. It's always like that, though, and when something doesn't pan out, people are always quick to criticize. It's like when a 2-on-1 situation doesn't resolve in a goal, if the player shot the puck people are up in arms why he didn't pass, and if he passes it's why didn't he shoot. But apart from the general knowledge of hockey, these boards, I have to say, have quite the knack for shootouts especially. They know how Bryz should be positioned and what he should do, they know not to have Simmonds be one of the shooters, they know what Giroux mustn't do, even though he probably isn't the third best point-getter in the league because he follows the safest route whenever possible, etc. I get that people are frustrated, but they just come off as smart-***** and generals after the war.

JERUSALEM, Israel - Israel's Tourism Ministry launched 'iSrael,' a new iPhone application, to help visitors with iPhones access information on tourist sites, accommodations and events taking place during their visit.
The three main categories - sites, tracks and accommodations - can be operated from the user's location, which uses GPS to locate the phone and then provides information from there.
The other option is by region, which provides a wide variety of information on locations throughout the country.
Tourists can access data on areas that interest them, such as holy sites, national parks, historical sites, and archaeological sites, among others.
The application provides such information as address and map of the area, a description and photo of the site, hours of operation, etc.
There's information on hiking and bicycle tours, bus and jeep tours and tours that include maps and places of interest along the way.
For hotels and other overnight accommodations, the program provides contact information, kashrut status (kosher food), and accommodations for children and even for pets.
The Tourism Ministry plans to expand the information and make the program adaptable for other devices.
Users will also be able to upload in real time to Facebook and Twitter.
For more information on the iSrael application, visit the Tourism Ministry website.

Prime Minister Harold Saxon: Anything I can do? I could make the tea - or isn't that American enough? I dunno, I could make grits. What are "grits", anyway?

What does the rest of the world have to tell us about how to do things? Build more trains? Have people elect their leader rather than an elite electoral college? Ride a bike to work like a girl scout or a clown with dietary concerns? No thanks, Vladimir.
Capt. Borodin: I will live in Montana. And I will marry a round American woman and raise rabbits, and she will cook them for me. And I will have a pickup truck— maybe even a 'recreational vehicle.' And drive from state to state... In winter I will live in Arizona. (rethinks it) Actually, I think I will need two wives.
Captain Ramius: Oh, at least.

Real Life
I dread the inevitable acceleration of American world domination which will be the result of it all...Europe will no longer be Europe.
—Aldous Huxley on World War I (attributed by J.G. Ballard)
Europe doesn't fear our military or economic prowess, rather it is Henry Ford who gives them the shivers... By Americanization it means Fordization—and not only in industry but also in politics, art and even religion.
At that time, the Superman comics were widely-read, and there were American soldiers all over the place. As American accents only reached us through the films, it was like being a movie to meet them—or wear clothes that from their country. We adored everything about America. We just couldn't get enough of it, from gums, to caps, to shirts with funny figures printed on them. The only drawback was that to qualify for the goodies, your mam had to be in heaven. I prayed hard that a bomb would drop on mine as she trudged home from the Sefton Arms.
—Tom Baker, Who On Earth is Tom Baker?
You know, in more than half a century of reading the mainstream American press, I have yet to a read a story that reported on any good news of any other society. If Swedish education and daycare centers are better than ours, it is because half the population must periodically commit suicide.
He really does kind of superimpose the way his system works onto the way he thinks our system works. He grossly exaggerates the role of the C.I.A. in the making of our foreign policy.
—Diplomat Michael McFaul on Vladimir Putin
Europeans aren't aware of it apparently, but if you go there it's kind of like a pale United States at this point, yet they still have this great feeling of independence, so it's even more dramatic. I mean, Western European intellectuals like to think of themselves as very sophisticated and sort of laughing at these dumb Americans—but they are so brainwashed by the United States that it's a joke.
—Noam Chomsky, Understanding Power
Americans continue to rapidly homogenize ourselves into a neutered oblivion. For a country founded on the protection of the unique, we relish our sameness.
—Lewis Black, Nothing's Sacred
[Francis] Fukuyamas argument was that all government eventually pushes itself toward western liberal democracy, and that theres no system that can resist the gravity of that form of capitalism forever. There is one absolutely final type of government, and the ending of the Cold War represented the victory of that model over the last of its potential challengers. This is a highly charged and political philosophy, but its obviously one which probes quite deeply into the American psyche.
Rarely do we hear intellectuals from other nations; theyre not relevant to Americans, no matter how deeply weve impacted their culture and history.
—Alexander Sylazhov, "Big Boss as Che Guevara"
Look at where the Matt Smith era began: all rural villages and quirky British tics. Look at where it ended: heroic speeches, a menagerie of monsters, style over substance and convoluted and unsatisfying resolution of arcs. The Americanisation of Doctor Who started with season six and it's Impossible Astronaut arc and it hasn't looked back.
—Joe Ford on Doctor Who, "Robots of Sherwood"
Where once we were the dragons on the map schisming the known world, now we are the very mouth of the Ouroboros, clamped down tight upon ourselves.
Perhaps the most glaring meaning of the American Dream can be found in China, where the 'Chinese Dream' has been adopted by Xi Jinping as a government slogan. It essentially boils down to 'hey, here's some more money in your pockets so you can handwave the abuses of our dictatorship for a few more years.'
Finkelsteins engagement was the first time an American consultant was so deeply involved in an Israeli campaign, but it wasnt the lastnowadays, many Israeli politicians, left and right, hire Washingtons brightest minds to orchestrate their quests for power. In less than a decade, Israeli political culture, once staid in a C-SPAN sort of way, has become a horror film, with ads and jingles featuring fear, loathing, and blood.
—Liel Leibovitz, "Left For Dead"
Here in Germany the people joke that things have become more Americanized, i.e. a deteriorating situation for for the working and middle classes.

Fantastic show and I plan to be in NYC soon. I've wanted to eat at one of Daniel's restaurants for a while. This show has helped me determine which restaurant in which I will be having dinner.
QOTD… I have no problem at all with the sommelier tasting my wine. If I trust him/her enough to ask for an opinion or recommendation for selecting a wine, I should trust enough for an honest opinion on the quality. To me it says that a poor quality or corked wine will never land in my glass or ever taint my opinion of the cellar at the establishment.

Accounting Irregularities Knock Down ARCP: Buying Opportunity Or Enron Part 2? [View article]
* While not downplaying it, this was an accounting mistake, not fraud or intentional. Errors do happen.
* The error was clearly not material -- yes, more so to the quarters but very little to the full year 2014.
* Errors/mistakes/judgments happen in any closing of the books. In most cases, they are then adjusted/corrected in the following quarter at all public companies.
* There was no effect on cash or cash flow.
* The decline in price seemed like a major overreaction by the selling institutions and others, considering the small amount involved.
* The enterprise value maybe declined by a couple % but certainly did not decline by 30+% overnight.
* There should be no impact on the dividend.
* Broad insider buying during the year.
* I like the triple net lease business.
* This seemed much like the overreaction to accounting issues at PSEC earlier this year. Again, no effect on cash or cash flow at PSEC.
* Management reached aggressively and quickly.
* This too will pass. The PPS should gradually return to its former level over the coming months.

Product description
The retirement crisis facing America-and the road map for a way out-from "The New York Times" bestselling author of "Origins of the Crash" In the last several decades, corporations and local governments made ruinous pension and healthcare promises to American workers. With these now coming due, they threaten to destroy twenty-first- century America's hopes for a comfortable retirement. With his trademark narrative panache, bestselling author Roger Lowenstein analyzes three fascinating case studies-General Motors, the New York City subway system, and the city of San Diego-each an object lesson and a compelling historical saga that illuminates how the pension crisis developed. Cumulative retirement deficits are approaching $1 trillion, and Lowenstein warns that these are only the first. Retirement pensions will continue to be a critical issue as the country ages, and While America Aged is the urgent call to action and prescription for reform.

CALGARY, ALBERTA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/12/14 --
Editors Note: There is a photo associated with this Press Release.
Sundre-based, third generation chuckwagon legend Rae Croteau Jr., along with his sponsors TOMCO Group, Ranchman's and Nabors Production will be presenting a cheque to the Sheldon Kennedy Child Advocacy Centre Sunday at 5 pm Sunday July 13 after a hugely successful fundraising and awareness campaign during the Calgary Stampede. The campaign has already seen more than $10 000 raised with the hashtag #chucks4bucks and donations that have come in from the awareness generated. For every picture posted on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram of Croteau's #BadAssRainbow chuckwagon in action using the hashtag #chucks4bucks, Croteau, along with his sponsors TOMCO Group, Ranchman's, and Nabors Production will donated one dollar to the Sheldon Kennedy Child Advocacy Centre.
This is not Croteau's first philanthropic action during the Calgary Stampede. In 2013, Croteau donated part of his GMC Rangeland Derby winnings to the Calgary flood relief in 2013, which was matched by his tarp sponsor TOMCO Group of companies for a donation of $10 000.
"This year we went even bigger, engaging the crowd to help raise awareness of the cause," says Croteau. "We really wanted the cause itself to be the focus and the awareness we generated for the Child Advocacy Centre has been amazing."
The campaign saw mentions and posts from the official accounts of the Calgary Flames, the Washington Capitals and many more NHL players and local Calgary celebrities.
Tomco President, Wes Tomyn states, "We are really excited about how so many people supported the initiative and helped to raise awareness for the cause and the Sheldon Kennedy Centre."
"We are honoured to be chosen as the recipient of this campaign," says Sheldon Kennedy.

WHITLEY COUNTY — A fast-moving virus that has infected hogs across much of the U.S. has become rampant in Indiana, agriculture officials say.
Dave Addison, of the Whitley County Purdue Extension Office, reported Monday that the virus has been reported by local farmers.
The disease was first introduced into the U.S. less than a year ago, and is rapidly spreading through Indiana.
Officials from the Indiana State Board of Health reported March 14 that the disease, porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PED) has infected farms in 43 of Indiana's 92 counties.

A reproductive justice framework is critical—but it's not the same thing as "pro-choice."
A federal district court in Arizona made it official this week and entered a permanent injunction that blocks a law designed to strip Planned Parenthood clinics in the state of funds by banning Medicaid funding for non-abortion health care provided by doctors and clinics that also perform abortions.
It is hard to believe that the U. S House of Representatives actually voted to cut off Planned Parenthood altogether. These political attacks get plenty of attention. Meanwhile, in contrast, the Presbyterian Church I am blessed to serve wants to be sure that a woman's health center, like Planned Parenthood, has a home.
Too often, "love" and "justice" are understood in completely different categories. In fact, they are just different incarnations of one another.
U.S. District Judge Neil Wake gave women's health advocates a significant victory in the fight over family planning funding, overturning a 2012 Arizona law that targets Planned Parenthood.
The latest legal news on the contraception challenges and fight for reproductive justice in the states.
A freshman state representative in Texas is continuing the state's bizarre vendetta against abortion providers and their affiliates—that's Texan for "Planned Parenthood"—by filing a bill that would prevent such entities from providing sex education in schools.
Recognizing the public's hostility toward candidates who want to ban abortion, a Colorado group offers to help candidates who want to conceal their anti-choice views from voters.
Women do not want politicians to meddle in their personal medical decisions. We applaud and stand behind the Resolution 1635-A, calling upon the United States Congress to continue to fund comprehensive reproductive health care for all Americans.
Last week, the Texas Health And Human Services Commission disabled the problem-riddled online provider search function on its Texas Women's Health Program website, which has, for months, directed low-income women seeking pap smears to call endoscopy clinics and pediatric offices.
