Tom Gaulrapp, has worked at the Sensata Technologies plant for 33 years. His last day of work at Sensata is November 5.
We turn now to Freeport, Illinois, where more people have been arrested protesting plans by Mitt Romney's former company, Bain Capital, to shut the Sensata Technologies plant and move operations to China — a loss of 170 American jobs. On Wednesday, six people were arrested in the lobby of the plant during a sit-in demanding full severance pay for those who will lose their jobs. Last month, Sensata workers set up an encampment called "Bainport" across the street from the facility to protest the company's plan to close the plant. Last week, three protesters were arrested for blocking the path of trucks leaving the plant in an effort to stop the removal of equipment from their workplace. To find out more about the "Bainport" protest, we speak with Tom Gaulrapp, who has worked at the Sensata Technologies plant for 33 years. His last day of work at Sensata is November 5, one day before the election. The protesters have invited Romney to visit "Bainport" to address their situation. [includes rush transcript]
This is a rush transcript. Copy may not be in its final form.
AMY GOODMAN: We turn now to Freeport, Illinois, where six more people have been arrested protesting plans by Mitt Romney's former company, Bain Capital, to shut the Sensata Technologies plant and move operations to China. A hundred seventy jobs will be lost. On Wednesday, six community supporters were arrested in the lobby of the plant during a sit-in demanding full severance pay for those who will lose their jobs.
We turn right now to Tom Gaulrapp, who has worked at the plant for 33 years. He is one of those who will lose his job. This follows arrests last week of people who laid down on the road to stop machinery at the plant from being moved out of the Sensata Technologies plant owned by Bain Capital.
Tom, can you give us the latest?
TOM GAULRAPP: Good morning, Amy. Excuse me, my—I lost my voice.
Yes, yesterday, six community members who support us completely, and they went, walked over to the plant. They had with them the petition that the employees had signed requesting that we receive full severance. They asked for a meeting with the plant manager; they were told the plant manager was not available. They then asked for a meeting with the human resource person; they were told that she was not available. And so, they sat down in the foyer of the plant, and the police were called. And they were asked to leave, and they said they would not leave until they had a meeting. And the police arrested six people.
AMY GOODMAN: And what's going to happen now? Are they out?
TOM GAULRAPP: Oh, yes, yes. It's—they were released within less than an hour of the time that they were arrested.
AMY GOODMAN: And what's going to happen to you, Tom? When do you lose your job?
TOM GAULRAPP: Right now the schedule is that my last day of work will be November 5th, the day before the election. That is always subject to change. They may move it up, or they may move it back a week. The way it looks right now, we may be done actually a little earlier than that. But that's the plan right now.
AMY GOODMAN: And, Tom, a lot of people are coming to town. Senator Dick Durbin just visited with folks at the encampment you've set up across the street from the Bain Capital-owned plant?
TOM GAULRAPP: Yes, Senator Durbin was there Tuesday, and Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky is coming on Monday.
AMY GOODMAN: We'll be going back to Bainport to get the latest report—Bainport, what the workers are calling this encampment across the street from Sensata Technologies. And we'll continue to follow up as these developments occur. Tom Gaulrapp, thanks so much for being with us, has worked at the plant for 33 years.

Hi. If you are looking for a tutor to help you understand the material in one of your classes or if you want improve your scores for a standardized test or even if there is a subject that you want help learning for your own satisfaction, I can help. I've always been "that guy" who helps fellow classmates study for tests. Having tutored professionally since early 2010 both through the school system and independently, I feel as though I can comfortably say that I enjoy tutoring and not just because I enjoy teaching, but also because with every new student, and every new question each new student brings, my understanding of the subjects I tutor deepens. It truly is as they say, "the best way to learn is to teach." So, as cheesy as it sounds, I tutor because I love to teach and I love to learn. It is the perfect job for someone like me.
When I tutor, I go by the quote, "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime." The goal is for the student to understand and to be able to solve problems in the subject without my help. The issue is that most of the time lower level math teachers don't get the students to understand the material, which leads to confusion in upper level courses. I've found that with a little review people tend to improve their scores and more importantly, their understanding.
I am currently studying for a Master's degree in Mathematics at FIU and I have a BS in Mathematics with minors in Physics and English also from FIU. I plan on studying applications of differential geometry into the financial field.
If you feel we might be a good fit, please feel free to email me. Thank you for reading my page and I look forward to hearing from you. Hi.

Aaron is very professional, exhibits great knowledge in math, very patient and easy going, encourages and challenges student in a positive manner, and shows sincere dedication for his student's learning and monitors progress. It has been a blessing finding him in this site he has truly made my son advance in his mathematical skills. I would highly recommend him to any parent that is looking for a tutor for his/her high school aged child.
Wow. This is a lovely review. I'm not even sure how to respond to this. Thank you. Your son is a pleasure to tutor, and I'm looking forward to our session on Wednesday.
Aaron has been an invaluable asset as a tutor to my nephew. He is very patient professional and knowledgeable. He has been able to identify what areas need to be addressed for the best outcome. He is also teaching him study skills, note-taking, and assisting him as a mentor. I feel very fortunate to have found him.
Aaron is one of the best calculus tutors I've met so far. He helps you understand the methods and rules of math, and never fails to miss a detail. His ways of teaching are extremely helpful and I would definitely recommend him!
Working with Aaron has been a great experience. He is very knowledgeable and explains hard to understand concepts very well. He is a natural at teaching and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend!!
Aaron is patient, reliable, personable, and provides a thorough explanation. Aaron knows the subject well and is able to teach a student that is unfamiliar with the subject. I would not be hesitant to recommend to any other student taking physics.
My son was unsettled by the thought of having a tutor for his HS Calculus course, but he needed some help. Aaron has such a laid back personality that my son was able to focus on the lessons without feeling stressed. Aaron is very knowledgeable and was able to help my son pass his online course with an A!
Aaron is an excellent Physics tutor. I was very pleased with his knowledge and teaching ability. He made physics a lot easier by breaking down problems and making sure that I could understand every step before moving on to the next. I will definitely use him again!
Aaron has tutored me for physics, and has done a great job so far. He is really knowledgeable about the subject and explains things thoroughly. I would recommend him to anyone who not only wants to pass a class, but who wants to understand it. He also really cares about the grades received and is flexible with his tutoring times.
It was a pleasure tutoring you, Paulina. Good luck in Nova, although I'm sure you won't need any.
Mr. Aaron is a very very patient tutor. When my first lesson was scheduled I was so nervous because the subject (math) was very complicated but he made me feel comfortable. He not only explained me the subject in a very clear way but showed me how to solve all type of math problems. I can truly say that it was the best experience I have ever had with a tutor.
It was a pleasure tutoring you, Patricia. I am happy to have met and helped you.
Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
Algebra is far too often taught as a set of mysterious formulas. I call this the "black box" effect, because one cannot see inside a black box so one does not know how it works. Similarly, if a student does not understand how an algebraic tool works, he or she is forced to memorize how to use it. If the student learns how it works, no memorization is needed.
Not only is understanding the algebraic rules easier than memorizing them, it also makes mistakes much less likely, and to do otherwise is, quite frankly, missing the point of subjects like Algebra.
Algebra I and Algebra II are extremely similar with respect to the concepts involved. The problem most students have with Algebra II is that they memorized many of the tool and relations learned in Algebra I. This is a problem that persists through to Pre-Calculus, Calculus, and above! As a matter of fact, I still see this in many of the college students I tutor.
I got a 97% on the ASVAB, and spent 5 years in the US Army.
Calculus was a big part of my Math undergrad degree. I've taken and received A's in calculus 1, 2, 3, Differential Equations, Advanced Differential Equations, and Advanced Calculus 1 and 2 and other related analysis courses. Whatever your issues are with Calculus, I can find them and correct them.
Differential Equations is a fun course. It's like a course on how to solve certain puzzles. You're given a specific form of a differential equation and using the techniques and tricks taught in this course, one is able to find out what the original function is. It's really kind of beautiful. As for the quantitative part of my qualifications, I've taken Differential Equations at MDC and Advanced Differential Equations at FIU and received an A in both.
During the course of my studies at FIU, I've had a lot of exposure to Discrete Math. I have also been tutoring this subject since 2013 both for the school directly and privately. Whatever your issues with Discrete Math may be, we can find them and correct them together.
This is where one's mathematical understanding starts. It is in these first math classes that learning the concepts correctly is so important. If done correctly, math can become not only an easier endeavor, but also a fun one. If introduced properly, math can be a game of puzzles rather than the hair-pulling experience so many dread.
During the course of my studies at FIU, I've had a lot of exposure to Finite Math. I have also been tutoring this subject since 2013 both for the school directly and privately. Whatever your issues with Finite Math may be, we can find them and correct them together.
A math professor once told me that the most important thing that he had learned during his time as a student was the importance of geometry and how all of math exists for geometry, and visa versa. Whether you're studying Analytic Geometry, Algebraic Geometry, Differential Geometry or even high-school Geometry, I can help you understand the concepts!
I've been playing guitar for a little over 13 years now, and have studied jazz theory for a few years, and about a year of classical guitar. I continue to study music theory on my own.
I took Linear Algebra at FIU and received an A. More important than the grade, however, was the wide-spread use that I've seen since then. Linear Algebra really is the basis for Differential Equations, Calculus 3, and so much more in mathematics. Even Google uses Linear Algebra as the meat and potatoes of their search algorithm!
I've taken the Mathematical Logic course at FIU with Dr. Kafkoulis and received an A. I have also taken Axiomatic Set Theory which focused on the construction of L and WF. This Set Theory course was pretty much an extension of Mathematical Logic which is the study of Logic from an analytic viewpoint. Aside from that, I used logic throughout my undergrad degree to prove theorems and things in my Math classes. Long story short: I have a lot of experience with logic.
The LSAT is just a game of parsing and understanding logical statements and a bit of playing with logic games. As a mathematician, I do these sorts of things for fun. If you're nervous about taking the LSAT, or even if you just want to raise your score by a few points, let me know.
I've taken university Physics 1 and 2 with calculus (PHY2048 and PHY2049) and received the Physics Award in 2011 from Miami Dade College. I've taken and received A's in Methods in Theoretical Physics, Modern Physics 1 and 2, Classical Mechanics 1 and 2, Solid State Physics, and Thermodynamics at FIU.

Yesterday, Simone and I went to the Belen market to start the day. We really just walked around and took in the craziness but I was on a mission. I've never eaten turtle and (supposedly, but I doubt it) there is a specific type of turtle that you can eat right now and it's legal. We went to the meat section and found the turtle lady and I asked her what the best way to prepare it was. She went into an elaborate explanation that took about 5 minutes ...

It's a really good thing we brought there food with us because the lack of nutrients would've got to me after a day or so. After dinner I played more cards, put on a little concert for the boat, and updated the blog. ...

A long climb awaited those of who disembarked. I'm glad I wasn't the only one who found the incredibly steep stairs up the side of the hill to be difficult.

Sinha, who is also the secretary of the Department of Atomic Energy, said the CCS has given its nod to acquire the membership about two months back.
The Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited (NPCIL) had postponed putting the power unit 2 into commercial operation until July 2015.
The process of commissioning Unit 2 of Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant is at an "advanced stage", Atomic Energy Commission chairman Ratan Kumar Sinha has said.
Unit II of Kudankulam Nuclear Power Project is in the advanced stage of commissioning and is likely to go critical by August.
"Shatrughan Sinha is a pride of Bihar and has been a high class actor. We meet out of personal relationship and no politics is discussed," Chief Minister Nitish Kumar said.
Senior IAS officer Pradeep Kumar Sinha took over as Cabinet Secretary succeeding Ajit Seth who retired after serving in the post for four years.
Bharatiya Janata Party leaders here admitted privately that Sinha's statement of Saturday was "a big embarrassment" for their party.
The Cabinet Secretary directed various Ministries to expedite the completion of the ongoing projects on priority, an official statement said.

Match Day: One Day and One Dramatic Year in the Lives of Three New Doctors

Feb 23, 2013 Jennifer rated it 1 of 5 stars
Ugggggggh. This book is so bad. Eule offers a primer on the logistics behind Match Day and beyond through the eyes of three Cali/New York women without probing particularly deep. It shifts uncomfortably from one lens to another, occasionally setting up pockets of conflict only to have us realize, wait, umm, that's not actually a conflict. The book's tone shifts from secondhand "he said, she said" dialogue to distanced bureaucratese to weirdly navel-gazey and uncomfortably whiny prose papered wit ...more

Read this book while travelling to and from a business trip over the weekend. It is a very quick read as Eule profiles 3 young doctors, including his girlfriend, as they await the matching that will provide them with the next chapter in their medical training. Each doctor is interested in a different specialty and at a different place in her personal life. All females, the doctors profiled not only had to endure this long training, but figure out when and if a pregnancy and caring for children c ...more

As a parent of a 2nd year medicial student, this book was so helpful in giving me insight in what to possibly expect and most especially, what our son will experience. I think it will assist us in encouraging him and helping out where we can. Thank you.

Shelves: z-2014, doctors, nonfiction, reviewed
Interesting enough in some respects (reminds me in places of the way cadets choose assignments at West Point...), but it's rather devoid of tension, no? Eule brings in some interesting statistics and anecdotes, but his book is structured mostly around three women who are first waiting to be matched with residencies and then undergoing their intern year. They are subjects of convenience -- Eule's then-girlfriend and two friends -- rather than subjects selected because they are particularly intere ...more

Match Day is the most important — and most nerve wracking — day for graduating students in every medical school in the United States, as more than 15,000 fourth years find out which residency program they have been matched to. The process involves a complicated dance, in which students interview at different hospitals and medical schools with their prospective program directors, attending physicians, and future resident colleagues, and both the students and the residency programs submit ranked l ...more

Got this book as a birthday present from my friend Ros. (Thank you Ros!) I finished it within ~2 weeks of picking it up - it was a combination of my intense fascination with interviewing and the residency match process - now that I'm immersed in it - and my procrastinating studying for Step II and my neuro shelf. Either way, it was a quick read and not disappointing. A little on the cheesy side at times, but heartfelt and down to earth. This is a true story narrated by a guy whose girlfriend is ...more

Next on the list: Brian Eule's Match Day: One Day and One Dramatic Year in the Lives of Three New Doctors, which I had been looking forward to since coming across a description of this event online. It sounds like a very emotional and thrilling day, kind of like a bigger version of college acceptance/rejection season. I never knew there was this whole system to how residents are matched with hospitals and programs!

I thought the book was going to lead up to the Match Day reveal, but it actually takes the Match as its departure point. One of the doctors profiled in the book describes the trip to the Match Day ceremony as reminiscent of the climb of a roller coaster, before you shoot off onto the ride. Eule lays out the stakes for each doctor -- relationships, partners' careers, families, and of course career opportunities -- and then follows each doctor (all young women) through her intern year. (That's sea ...more

Not a useful book if you want to know more about being a doctor. (Summary: residency is busy and difficult.) But decently written and somewhat useful for the general impact on family, at least for that one particular year.
May 16, 2014 Laura De rated it 4 of 5 stars
I really liked this book! I've always found medical memoirs to be interesting, and this one is really interesting. I also liked all the history and stats on gender equality in medicine and how the match process works. The three female doctors and their stories are likable and fun to follow.

This a really interesting book. It traces the lives of 3 women from the time they're medical students about to be 'matched' by a computer algorithm to residency programs at hospitals around the country. The 3 women are different, all in relationships, one partner being a medical student as well, and within the year of their internship, we follow them through their experiences with facing death, making mistakes, struggling to maintain their relationships, and also learning how to heal and provide ...more

Not bad -- I almost always enjoy medical memoirs, and this one was well-written -- but I didn't really connect with the excitement and stress surrounding Match Day, when the three featured medical students find out where they're going to intern. Will this brilliant and talented student match to her first choice, UC San Francisco, or her second choice, UCLA? Will this one be matched to a school near her boyfriend? (Dramatically, it's right up there with "Will the Stanford summa cum laude be accep ...more

This book follows three female doctors through their last year of medical school and first year of residency. It also explores medical education in the United States and how it has changed over the years and looks at some of the special challenges facing the growing numbers of female doctors, such as work/life balance and when and if to have children. I thought it was a really interesting book; it provides lots of insight into what it takes to become a doctor, and the hopes, goals, and challenge ...more

Match Day reveals what medical students have to go through to get residencies. I wasn't aware of "The Match" until I started working for a company that prepares foreign doctors to take their medical licensing exams. It's a crazy and somewhat mysterious system and the author does a good job of explaining it. He also covers the first year of residency, the debate over long hours and details about the various specializations. This would be an excellent book for someone in his or her early years of ...more

What is Match Day? It comes every year in March when medical students graduate and--depending on which hospitals they have ranked on a submitted list--find out exactly where in the country they will be spending the next 4-7 years of their lives. Brian Eule does a great job of describing how these choices determine so many important aspects of the future as he follows three young women for one year after their Match Day assignments. He should know; he was dating a young woman who wanted to become ...more

Thought this book was well-written and an incredible fast read (meaning it kept me reading - I didn't want to put it down!). I really appreciated Eule's earnest perspective on the lives of those in the field of medicine and his exploration of relationships within the medical field. As a female going into medicine, this book was really helpful in terms of laying out the land and giving me some insight into what I can expect. It also touched upon a lot of issues that I think every medical student ...more

very well-written, engaging book about the internship match process, and then the internship year itself, for physicians in training. He gives general overview, cites studies and position papers (e.g., in relation to the debate over whether interns/residents' long hours and resulting fatigue play a role in causing preventable medical errors), but for the most part the book follows three interns through the process. One is the author's girlfriend, but he brings the other couples to life nearly as ...more

Eule follows the Match stories of 4 different med students.Just the book I've been looking for! As the spouse of an M3--almost M4--next year's Match is on my mind a lot. I really appreciated how this book is told from the perspective of the SO (boyfriend, later husband) of a med student. Read in one weekend. Things that I will now think about as my husband and I start the ranking process next year: does the residency have a spouse support group? is there housing near the hospital (sleep deprived ...more

It's hard to say what exactly this book is about - there are certainly broader lessons about medical education, medical practice, human relationships, and all that. But it's also something of a memoir - one of the three subjects is the author's girlfriend - and is deeply personal (sometimes too much so). I'm not going to try to deconstruct it too much, and instead just say that I enjoyed it enough to read it all in one sitting. It loses some steam toward the end, but I thought Eule was an able s ...more

The author wrote this book about his then girlfriend, now wife, and 2 of their female friends as they completed medical school. The title refers to "Match Day," when graduating medical students are assigned to the hospitals where they will serve out their residencies.
The book addresses dilemmas unique to women doctors, as well as issues common to all medical first-year residents. Lots of focus on their love lives, but not much in the way of friendship and coworker interactions. Way too many page ...more

This is an interesting book for someone who likes reading about medicine or wants to go into medicine. There is too much about the personal lives of these women though. I read this book for the professional aspect.
It's a quick read though, and I would still recommend it for someone considering medicine as a career.

Fast and interesting read for anyone interested in going through the medical school/intern & residency process, or for the significant other of someone pursuing this path. Eule gives a good firsthand explanation of three different scenarios and the pressures that come from each person's academic and personal lifestyle. I would highly recommend it for any pre-med students and their families in order to get a glimpse in the kind of life that lays ahead.
Jul 17, 2011 Soumya Rangarajan rated it 3 of 5 stars
like the author quotes a review of Patch Adams being "a shameless piece of sentimentality", I would describe this book the same way. I'd consider this a light fluffy beach novel for the initiated med student, or a decent intro to medicine for those who know nothing about it. The big thing that irked me is out of 250 pages, one paragraph and one line were dedicated to people who are single in med school/residency. We aren't THAT weird...

Shelves: non-fiction
This was a quick read and interesting to read about med students waiting to find out where they will do their residency. It follows four students in getting their envelops, through their first year as interns. Certainly gives you a sense of how new doctors feel and the difficulties they experience in getting their degrees! I was thinking of Stu's niece, Alicia as she begins this process!
Oct 10, 2011 Laura (Lolo) rated it 2 of 5 stars
Although this started out very well. I was left torn as to the key message, which was supposed to be a first account of women entering medicine... except the book was written by a man, who is not in the medical field. He is married to one of the key characters in the book and tried to write things from her view point. I found that weird and also discredited the validity of the book.

Shelves: adult-nonfiction, medicine-medical
Brian Eule follows the lives of three female medical students as they prepare for Match Day, and then as they begin the first year of residency. Readers will feel a real appreciation for the dedication and perseverance displayed by new doctors as they face the challenge of juggling their personal lives with the extreme demands of their profession. An absorbing and interesting read!!
Dec 22, 2009 Celeste rated it 1 of 5 stars
Shelves: abandoned, non-fiction
Found it strangely off-putting that the author is writing about his surgeon-in-training wife and their friends. The book can't make up its mind if it wants to be about Match Day (in which case it should have been an article), the personal repercussions of Match Day, or the general trials and tribulations of female doctors. I found it hard to read about all three at once.
Nov 03, 2014 Laura Hughes rated it 3 of 5 stars
Shelves: psych-medicine
A journalist whose girlfriend is a doctor reports on the algorithm-based hospital-and-doctor matching process that dominated the thoughts and wore the nerves of his closest friends, and then on the first year of residency of three new doctors. Engaging, personal, narrative-style journalism that gives a good window into a life that's unusual for most of us.
Aug 25, 2009 Nuree rated it 4 of 5 stars
gave a really great perspective into lives of medical students ranking their lists for the Match that'll determine the direction of their careers and lives. also great insight into the life of significant others who have committed themselves to these med students and first year interns. Intern year is grueling on both the intern and his/her SO!
May 17, 2009 Sarah rated it 3 of 5 stars
Okay, so arguably not the greatest book of all time, but still an interesting read for those of you connected to the medical profession in some way. The author is a journalist whose partner goes through the match process and starts her residency at UCLA...it will bring back memories for anyone who has deliberated over a match list for months:-)

Recent reviews:
July 29, 2015 - I love these boots! I have a horse farm in Florida and they're just the perfect everything. I wear them everyday! Just get a size bigger than you usually wear and you can't go wrong!
July 28, 2015 - I gave it 5 stars because they are BEAUTIFUL!, but I had to return them because they didn't fit in size 10. I usually use size 9 or 9½, but there is no size 11.
July 22, 2015 - I bought these as gift. I was apprehensive with the size because of the other comments saying that the boots ran small. I ordered 1/2 size up (wears 7 1/2, so ordered an 8). They were perfect for her! She loved them, so of course I loved them! She wears them during kennel duty at school...pawfect!
June 18, 2015 - cute and practical but I could not get my foot through the narrow ankle area. Foot fits in bottom of boot but then getting it in and out are impossible so I gave them away.
June 18, 2015 - Absolutely adorable. I ordered size I normally wear. I should have read the reviews because they run small. Will be exchanging for next size up.

Review: Five Points Tattoo
Posted in the Lake Stevens Forum
1 - 2 of 2 Comments Last updated Jun 1, 2013
#1 Apr 22, 2009
This tattoo shop is terrible, first of all the owner is very irresponsible. As I walked into the shop, he was telling his apprentice who by no means should be allowed to practice (especially by himself) that he could have the rest of the evenings earnings as he jetted out the door with some chick who he just touched up a tattoo on.
It only begins there, the tattoo I received was amateur at best. It's definitely NOT a good sign when the "artist" ends the tattoo with, "well, that's the best I can do." I was horrified, my tattoo was scribbly, uneven, too thin in some areas. I was left with the option to call the owner and request that HE touch up my tattoos. He agreed to do the work for free, but then was a no show on three occasions that I went to the shop at a time that he agreed to meet me. When I called the owner of the shops phone to ask why he was a no show, there was no answer and I didn't receive a call back for a week. When I did receive a call back, the owner had a lame excuse that he had left his phone at someones house for a week. As a business owner myself, this is certainly NOT the way to handle client relations. Steer clear of this shop!

*The fading impact of "American Idol" among the public is one thing, but among the people it boosted to stardom? That's saying a lot.
Despite the waning popularity of the show, it still manages to turn out bona fide superstars whether they took first place or not. Season one champ Kelly Clarkson just set a Billboard Singles record this week. Last season's winner Phillip Phillips just reached No. 1 on the adult contemporary chart. Fantasia made a splash in Broadway's "The Color Purple" and was the subject of a Lifetime Original Movie. Did we mention Carrie Underwood?
Even non-winners Clay Aiken, Chris Daughtry, Kellie Pickler, Adam Lambert, and "Smash" co-stars Katharine McPhee and Academy Award winner Jennifer Hudson are household names.
Where are the winners of "The Voice?" "The X Factor?"
This week, Hudson suggested that "American Idol" has already seen its best days, and maybe it's time to put the show out of its misery. J-Hud isn't the only former contestant who has moved on from the show's one-time luster.
Speaking to McPhee earlier this month following her "Smash" Season 2 TCA panel in Pasadena, the actress said she hadn't even thought of the fact that two "Idol" alums are starring in a primetime drama.
"I think people love to hang onto the 'American Idol' title, particularly the media," she told EURweb. "It's not something that I go up to [Hudson] and say like, 'Hey, how was your experience on "American Idol?"' I'm sure if she was sitting here we'd both say we're really incredibly grateful for the platform that it gave us, but it did what it was supposed to do, which was give us that platform to move on to things that we ultimately really dreamed of doing. And that's what's been so fantastic.
"Maybe I would've been on ['Smash'] without 'Idol,' maybe I wouldn't of, you know. But I know it was an amazing platform. So no, we didn't talk about it. She was incredibly wonderful to have on set and incredibly professional and wonderful to just listen to sing these amazing songs. But no, no dig on 'Idol,' but that just wasn't something that came up in conversation."
Below, McPhee says asking for comment on her "A.I." connection with Hudson is like asking someone to talk about a girl who went to your high school, but was in a different grade.

That's it? I just bought them and I'm not impressed. I guess for $50 they're quite good for the money if you can deal with the mid-range. I can perfectly understand how some could like them.
The 681 would probably be a better match for me..
Everyone says the 668B is so balanced, sounds more like a V shaped response.
It's signature is similar to that of the DT-990 if you look on Superlux's webpage.post #3 of 125/26/11 at 5:13pm

Hahah, that's what I thought of at first when I got my SR850. I was like "who the hell can stand this V-shaped sound?" The mids were so bad on mine but after 300 hours of burn-in, it greatly improved. Now they're pretty enjoyable (other than comfort, the earpads suck).post #5 of 125/26/11 at 10:33pm

Yeah, I may burn them in some more and see if they change. I guess I don't want to make them out to look that bad since they're only $40 after all.
I also found that the Beyer Pleather pads fit, but it's a major pain to install them. I have some AKG pads that might work also.post #6 of 125/27/11 at 3:48am

I don't have a problem with V shaped sound, I loved my DT990's until the D7000's made them completely unneeded. But I was and am a bit dissapointed by 668B too. I hoped I'd enjoy them more then AKG K-240, but the AKG's are way more balanced. 668B has too much treble for me also, which is a bit strange as I can stand Grado RS1i and HF-2 treble. But in 668b's signature, I don't like it.

As a SR850 owner, 2 things I'd like to point out =P
From what I've read in other threads, you've been listening quite a bit to what may be considered mid forward phones, in the form of the HD598, K601, K701, DJ100. I don't know about the other headphone in your sig. You may need some time to adjust.
Secondly, they definitely need burn in from my experience. I was coming from Denon D1100s and Panasonic HJE900s, two headphones quite known for their V shape and the SR850s were clearly more mid-recessed than both of those at first, which seemed odd, as the SR850s had "smaller" bass and smoother trebly. Luckily I actually like V-shaped sigs(actually pretty much any frequency response as long as extension is there both ways), so I didn't mind it much. But after the 250 hour or so mark they were very clearly more mid forward than any other phone I own. Not that I own many neutral/mid forward phones, only my ety MC5s really.
Then again, the SR850s are different from the Luxes. They're apparently like bassier, slightly less trebly detailed HD668Bs. I've gotten the impression that they may be more forward in the mids than the 668B too, but idk.post #8 of 126/4/11 at 5:36pm
Price does not matter.
Its ad's said "The HD662/F is precision tuned, closed type monitoring headphones which matches the sound characteristics of the industrial standard. Balanced through out the spectrum, closed for the best sound isolation, the HD662/F provides detail and vivid sound for the professionals!". No BS here! I know it, because the classic, Jazz, Blues, new age, and chill-out are my major listening, and I am using HD-662F to listen them. The hd-662f is very excellent to use for listening to classic, jazz, new age, chill out etc, especially the classic and Jazz. because it hyper nothing, totally flat (that is the "F" stand for) and neutral. That is very important to listen to those kind of music, because we want to know how good those artist are playing, right?
It is a very detailed headphone, display every instrument in detail with excellent space separation feeling. Sounds nothing mix-up at all. I think this can is the most crystal clean one I have been tried. I own hd668B, hd-681, sen hd555, hd595, and many other brands' cans, and had tried many many very expensive ones, but nothing like this hd662f! Every time after I tried a new can, I would be still keep looking for another one to try, because there always were something not right within. the sounds of piano, violin, viola, and bass are very difficult to be reproduced from headphones and speakers. So, I always use those instruments' recording such as classic music to compare the sq of headphones and speakers to see how their sound are close to the real-life ones. Every headphone and speaker is colored in sq more or less. The number of the driver is limited, so sq's muddy happens more or less in them. From comparing with real-life sound with my ears, the HD-662F is the closest one.
I don't like to compare headphones or speakers with each other. However, if try to find the sq like that of HD-662F, usually, you have to pay a lot, much lot! I would say, try around $1000 headphone or & $5000 more speaker. No, the HD-662F won't let a bad recording become good one. But with a good recording, it is an amazing can. The truth is after one month's listening and get use to HD-662F's sq, it would be difficult to back to other cans. Recommend it and give it at least one month's listening.post #9 of 126/5/11 at 6:40pm

Hi, nice info. Can you give us some info comparing the 3 Superlux you have? How do they compare to each other? I heard the 681 seems to be good for vocal and live band type of music and 668B is good overall?post #10 of 126/5/11 at 9:13pm

Yes, that is true. The HD681 (or the HD681F in my case) works very well for live music, while the HD668B is mostly neutral apart from the very slight bass bump and toned down mids.post #11 of 126/6/11 at 10:48pm
For the three cans, HD-681, HD-668B, and HD-662F, the HD-681 has more punch on base but still clean on mid and high with sq like smile eq curve. All descriptions on web are true and it is a very good headphone used for rocks and live rocks shows. The HD-668B has less punch bass but with more balance through whole spectrum. HD-668B has warmth mid and clean high. Its sq is very much like that of both Sen HD-595 and HD-598, but just better IMO. If your'e planning to buy HD-595 or HD-598, do you own favor, buy this HD-668B, that will save you $200 bucks and get a little bit better sq from it than that of Sens'.
About the HD-662F, just as I mentioned before, hyper nothing and flat through whole sound spectrum with as neutral and less colored as possible. Crystal clean through whole sound spectrum. That means you can not expect it has any punch bass any time and every time, the "punch" bass only appear when it should be, the tighter bass I should say. Because it own the most "cleanest" sound among all those headphones I mentioned above, so it fell more space separation between instruments. you can hear the individual instruments' playing and background recording in extremely detail. how detail the HD-662f could be? Once I used the sen HD-595 to listen a classic record, and found a very subtle strange sound I just can not figure out what is it? Then, I used the HD-662F to find out the strange sound came from one artist trying to turn his note papers! HD-662F can replay just such detail sounding. Beside the detail performance, the HD-662F has the closest sq as real tun from live instruments, especially the drums and pianos. About the human vocal, I would say I like HD-662F better than both of HD-681 and HD-668B, but all are better or as good as any Senns' at least. Generally, the Jazz signers' vocal sound from HD-662F much like that she or he hold a mac stand alone before you, very close to you, and leave band behind. you seem can feel his or her breath on you. That is a vivid and lively experience. From the HD-681 and HD-668B, the vocal experience is a little bit different, signers more like stand a little bit backward within band. How these three cans sound depend heavily on the quality of records. Bad records won't have any miracle, no matter which headphone or speaker you use. All in all, HD-662F is such excellent to use for listening the classic (including opera), jazz (vocal or not), blues, new age, chill-out, and lounge musics.
HD-681 and HD-668B are more like on sq than that of HD-662F. no matter which one you go for, I would suggest keep one HD-662F on hand at least. I keep all three superluxes, though I almost just use HD-662F to listen all types of musics, including the rock and metal. However, the HD-662F sounds so different compared with others, I think one should give it a month's listening at least to use to its sq. I don't want to call that period " burn in". I think it is just that you use to its sq at all. After that, may be it will be a no-turning point like me.
The down side is the HD-662F's head band, it is little tight on ears. But for time passing, it get a little improvement. Or, you can adjust the band force by bending the band carefully. The other weak point is its pads, which will cause ears sweat. The Senns' are much comfortable than that of Superluxs'. Otherwise, Superluxs are much better choice.post #12 of 126/8/11 at 10:02am

am I mistaken that each of the Superlux model has three profiles (F, B and blank) that it would be difficult to identify the inherent character of the model itself, unless one is able to compare the models with ths same profile (such as 662F, 662B and 662).
As described "The HD662 series offer three distinctive sound profiles, each with its own character: The HD662 features a deep and rich bass, the HD662F has a true bass response, and the HD662B has a powerful bass punch. As for the sound image presented by these headphones, the HD662 gives you the feeling of actually being on stage with the artists while the HD662F makes you feel as if you sitting on the front row and the HD662B puts you in the middle of the concert hall..."
a Superlux dealer told me that the HD661 is the best yet, but I am not so sure because seeming from the frequency response graph from Superlux website it looks exactly like a 7506.
actually are there counterfeit, as I found the price varies a great deal across different places.

Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
05 Oct 2013 23:42 GMT | Politics, Middle East, US & Canada, Egypt, Israel
Supporters and opponents of deposed Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi have called for rival demonstrations on the 1973 Arab-Israeli war anniversary after the deadliest violence in weeks.
The Anti-Coup Alliance called on Saturday for its supporters to try to reach Cairo's Tahrir Square on Sunday, which has been blocked off by the army, to mark the 40th anniversary of the war.
Live Box 201372884866233
The conflict, known as the October war in the Arab world and the Yom Kippur war in Israel, is remembered proudly by the Egyptian army as it caught Israel's defences unawares and led ultimately to Egypt's recovery of the Sinai Peninsula in the 1979 peace treaty.
Many saw Friday's protests, which resulted in four people dying and many more being injured, as a trial run for demonstrators to asses how the security forces would prevent Sunday's marches.
The Egptian authorities on Saturday issued a warning to anyone considering marching on the anniversary.
"The Ministry of Interior asserts its determination on confronting violence and infringements of the law by Muslim Brotherhood supporters," a ministry statement said.
"Security has been stepped up on highways, in all cities and at important installations.
"The Ministry of Interior warns against attempting to spoil the 6th of October commemoration."
Four dead
The military has significantly boosted its presence around Tahrir Square - where hundreds of thousands of Egyptians demonstrated during the revolt that toppled autocrat Hosni Mubarak in 2011 - after the clashes on Friday that spread across several cities.
Despite these warnings, the Anti-Coup Alliance, which is comprised of both Morsi supporters and those more concerned with the way the military has taken control of Egypt, has urged its supporters to take to the streets.
"The Egypt Anti-Coup Alliance repeats its call to all Egyptians to continue their protests in every part of Egypt, and to gather in Tahrir Square on Sunday, October 6, to celebrate the army of that victory and its leaders," the group said.
Attempts on Friday by protesters against the army's July 3 overthrow of Morsi to reach Tahrir Square sparked clashes with security forces who responded with tear gas and warning shots.
Four people were killed in Cairo's deadliest protest violence in more than a month as demonstrators clashed with coup supporters as well as security forces.
Calls for demonstrations on Sunday were also made by Tamarod, the movement which led nationwide protests against Morsi that finally led to his ouster by the army.
"We call all Egyptians to come out tomorrow across all squares in the country to assert that this nation will not allow its revolution to be stolen," prominent Tamarod leader Mahmoud Badr told reporters.
Al Jazeera's Cairo correspondent, who we are not naming for security reasons, said that the demonstrations would start from five different spots around Cairo, and planned to converge on Tahrir Square in the afternoon.
"The stage truly is set for a very interesting turn of events tomorrow afternoon," our correspondent said.
"Police will allow pedestrians in to the square on Sunday to watch a military march past and they are saying that celebrations will go ahead.
"The Anti-Coup Alliance has announced will start marches in five different areas at 2pm local time and will march towards Tahrir Square and they will converge at 4 o'clock.
"There are more vehicles and barrirs going up around the square. there is clearly a lot of celebration to keep the two sides apart."

Rich getting richer, study finds
Canada ranks seventh when it comes to the world's millionaires, according to a new report by RBC Wealth Management and Capgemini Financial Services
|Report an Error
Share via Email
The rich are getting richer, and there are way more of them.
The World Wealth Report, issued Tuesday by RBC Wealth Management and Capgemini Financial Services, says the number of millionaires globally grew by 1 million, or 9.2 per cent, to 12 million last year after declining in 2011.
The jump of those high-net-worth people, defined as individuals with more than $1 million (U.S.) to invest, was credited mostly to strength in stock and real estate markets.
North America was home to the most number of millionaires, an estimated 3.73 million, regaining the top spot from Asia-Pacific whose millionaires numbered 3.68 million.
However, Asia-Pacific is likely to overtake North America again soon because its overall wealth growth rate is at 12.2 per cent compared with North America's 11.7 per cent.
In Canada, the number of millionaires grew by 6.5 per cent in 2012 to 298,000 individuals. Canadian wealth expanded to $897 billion (U.S.) in 2012, representing a 6.8 percent increase from 2011.
David Wilson, Capgemini's head of strategic analysis group, said real estate played a part, but it wasn't a core driver. Instead, he credited it more to a willingness among those high-wealth Canadians to invest in equities, noting they held 31.9 per cent of their assets in equities compared by a global average of 26.1 per cent.
"It allowed them to profit from some of the equity returns we experienced in the second half of last year," Wilson said. "That's on top reasonable of GDP growth and real estate growth."
He noted, however, the growth rate of millionaires in Canada increased at 6.5 per cent, a far lower rate than other countries including Australia at 15.1 per cent, China at 14.3 per cent, the United States at 12 per cent and South Korea at 10.9 per cent.
The amount of wealth controlled by the world's richest rose 10 per cent to $46.2 trillion (U.S.), well above the pre-economic crisis level of $40.7 trillion in 2007, and previous high of $42.7 trillion (U.S.) in 2010.
Overall, global investable wealth is expected to increase to $55.8 trillion (U.S.) by 2015, driven mainly by growth in Asia-Pacific.
Among the rich, the millionaires are split into three categories: the millionaires next door, with assets of $1 million to $5 million (U.S.), mid-tier millionaires, with assets of $5 million to $30 million (U.S.), and ultra millionaires who have assets exceeding $30 million (U.S.).
The ultra millionaires represent less than 1 per cent of global high-net-worth individuals, or 111,000, but they control more than one-third of the world's wealth.

Learning How to Preserve the Food You Grow
by Janet Cassidy
Ohio Farm Bureau recently held an online food preservation meeting discussing freezing and water bath techniques. Joining me during the meeting was Linnette Goard, food specialist, food safety, Ohio State University Extension.
As an enthusiastic home canner, Im always up for a conversation on food preservation. But you may wonder why Farm Bureau, an organization known for its policy development process, held a meeting on home canning? As it turns out, people are really interested in learning how to preserve food. I mean, home canning is HOT! (Pun intended.) And members have expressed an interest in learning more about how to preserve the food they grow.
I enjoyed visiting with Linnette and sharing our conversation with attendees. For many participants, the event was their first interaction with Farm Bureau.
Im excited that Farm Bureau wants to engage more members with topics that are important to them. That's why weve developed two new online communities around food where participants can find answers to their questions, talk with other enthusiasts and share ideas (including online meeting suggestions). You can check out these groups by visiting the Our Ohio Gardening Group and the Our Ohio Cooking Group to join in the conversation.
Test your food preservation IQ
During the event, participants were able to ask questions. Heres a few of the most common:
- How do I know if a recipe is safe?
- I have a favorite spaghetti sauce recipe. How do I preserve it?
- Which foods can be safely processed in a water bath canner? Which should be processed in a pressure canner?
- Do you need to blanch foods before freezing?
- How long can I safely store preserved foods?
Think you know the answers? Find out by watching the recording of our online meeting below!
