An unlikely series of events began to unfold in 2011 when members of the Iowa Bacon Board, organizers of the famous Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival, decided to host a "flash bacon festival" in Iceland. Through an extended network of family and friends, members of the Iowa Bacon Board were introduced to a group of Icelanders who volunteered to help.
On the afternoon of August 5, 2011, the bacon-loving Iowans marched down the historic street of Skólavörðustígur toward the Ófeigur Jewelry Store dressed in matching uniforms with one sporting a mascot pig head. When they arrived outside the jewelry store, they were welcomed by a range of four propane burners (set up by their Icelandic friends). It was there that they proceeded to blast rock music from portable speakers and fry up over 100 lbs of bacon. Needless to say, within minutes the Americans found themselves surrounded by hundreds of new bacon-loving friends. To view video footage from the event click here.
Inspired by the bacon fellowship they witnessed, the Iowa Bacon Board's new Icelandic friends quickly organized under the Iceland Bacon Board and set out to partner with the Iowans to found the Reykjavik Bacon Festival. Now, in its third year, the Reykjavik Bacon Festival has become the fastest growing food festival in all of Iceland. And, like its sister festival in Iowa, the Reykjavik Bacon Board measures its success not only by how they improve the lives of bacon-lovers, but also how they help the community as a whole. Just last week, proceeds from the festival were donated to The National University Hospital of Iceland to purchase much needed medical equipment and supplies.
In recognition of the growing relationship between Iowa and Iceland, President Ólafur Ragnar Grímsson invited members of the Iowa Bacon Board to meet with him while attending The World Food Prize in Des Moines, IA yesterday. Brooks Reynolds, chair of the Iowa Bacon Board, recalled the meeting, "The President shared some valuable ideas on how we could improve our bacon festivals – from including more Icelandic fish and lamb to reducing our impact on global climate change. As a board we will consider them all." Reynolds paused and in a more serious tone continued, "I just hope he considers our idea…'Wild Icelandic Lamb Bacon'. I mean, put some pants on this one – it has legs!"

After 2008′s popular Image X5, which debuted at $100 less than the X10, Klipsch began expanding the affordable line of their inner earphones. In 2009, the S2 and S4 join the Image line at the more reasonable prices of $49.99 and $79.99. When Klipsch designed the new earphones, they utilised brand new drivers which were made specifically for their sound signature. So, the S4 houses a special 8mm dynamic driver which packs dual neodymium magnets and the audio performance for which Klipsch is famous. Happily, Klipsch also introduced the iPhone-friendly S4i

THE TITLE of the May 1994 Commentary magazine essay was "The Degradation of the New York Times." Written by Joseph Epstein, the article was an uncanny forecast of the disaster that befell the Times almost a decade later. Arthur Ochs Sulzberger Jr. was publisher then and now.
If only Epstein could predict the Dow with the same accuracy as he did the course of the Times, we'd all be billionaires and one of us would surely be publishing our own newspaper.
Epstein quoted Arthur Ochs Sulzberger, the pre-1994 publisher as saying about the paper's editorial policy: "I play a very active role in these things. They don't go the other way if I don't want them to." And, added Epstein: "His son appears determined to extend this activism, by taking a strong hand in hiring, newsroom management, and other day-to-day aspects of running the paper."
There is no question that Son Sulzberger did extend this activism, which means that, along with executive editor Howell Raines and managing editor Gerald Boyd, Son Sulzberger should also have resigned and handed over the reins to someone else.
Epstein said in 1994 that "the true politics of the new New York Times are to be found at work on the issues of feminism, racism, homosexuality, usually funneled through the totem of 'diversity,' which, reinforced by political correctness, I prefer to think of as totalitarian pluralism." He wrote:
In this respect, the Times has come more and more to resemble the contemporary university: out to achieve diversity, if need be, down the barrel of a gun. Enforced diversity creeps in everywhere. . . . None of this is very surprising, for Arthur Ochs Sulzberger, Jr. is himself committed to totalitarian pluralism.
Sulzberger was quoted in "Behind the Times," a book by Edwin Diamond, published in 1994, as saying: "We can no longer offer our readers a predominantly white, straight, male vision of events and say we're doing our job."
Adds Epstein: "The way Sulzberger has backed up his conviction is not only through the writing he publishes but also through hiring and promotion practices inside the paper." In other words, Jayson Blair was a disaster waiting to happen.
Epstein's conclusion in 1994:
There is, then, probably no hope of the Times's turning away from the campaign for an artificial--because enforced--diversity. . . . In the meantime, the cost in intellectual distinction, even in the appearance of distinction, has been staggering. Through the 20th century the New York Times, for all its shortcomings, has been this country's greatest journalistic institution. The continuing degradation of that institution in the era of cultural decline we are now living through is far from pleasing to contemplate.
That was written almost ten years ago. Quite clearly, there's one more resignation to go. Raines and Boyd were only following orders.

Jabari Parker took a big step toward joining the NBA hours before the draft, signing with the Jordan Brand.
"We could not be more excited to have Jabari Parker officially join our roster," Larry Miller, president of the Nike subsidiary, told ESPN. "Jabari's character and commitment to excellence makes him a perfect fit with Jordan Brand and we are looking forward to building a legacy with him."
Parker, a Chicago native, is projected to be one of the first two picks in the draft (most likely the second, by the Milwaukee Bucks).

Shell's fourth-quarter chemical earnings down 45%
February 1, 2013 | Francinia Protti-Alvarez
Royal Dutch Shell's fourth-quarter chemical earnings, on a current cost of supplies (CCS) basis, were down 45% year-on-year, to $209 million from the $380 million reported in the fourth quarter of 2011, the company says. Chemical CCS earnings were nevertheless up about 3.5% quarter-on-quarter, and sales volumes were down 1.7% during the same period, suggesting pricing-strategy improvements. "Chemicals earnings were lower, mainly as a result of higher operating expenses, and in the United States, supply constraints of advantaged feedstock," Shell...

The truth is, i've no idea how to cook crayfish!
When i first saw the crayfish in the wet market in the morning, the only thought i had was, i must buy!
And i did.
Crayfish pasta!!!
Then when i saw clams (only $2.50/kg!!) at another stall, i know for sure it'd be marinara pasta for dinner :)
However, the clams i got this time, while cheap.. they were extremely tiny!
No fun~
But it was the only type that was available unfortunately.
I love how both crayfish and clams lent its natural sweetness to the tomato-based sauce. Like how to the helper put it, a whiff and one will know it's seafood pasta with tomato-based!
Because i was pretty worried that the crayfish might be hard to cook, i instructed the helper to deep-fry them first. The thought of the crayfish being deep-fried (just like Swensen's) is rather intoxicating. Extra oooommpphhhh for my tomato sauce when it's (the deep frying, which the helper excels in!) done perfectly.
Crayfish and Clam Pasta
1 packet of cooked pasta (any kind!)
5-6 cloves of garlic, finely minced
1 huge yellow onion, diced
3 tomatoes, diced
1 can of Prego tomato sauce
300-400ml chicken stock, or boiling water
1/2 tsp of mixed herbs
salt, to taste
1 kg clams, washed and drained
5 cooked crayfish – halved, approx 700g (deep fry)
5 tbsp olive oil
parmesan cheese
parsley flakes, to garnish (optional)
1. Heat oil in wok.
2. Brown garlic and onion.
3. Add tomatoes.
4. Stir in Prego's tomato sauce and chicken stock.
5. Add clams and close lid to steam for 5 mins or so – to get the clams cooked.
6. Add mixed herbs and salt. Taste.
7. Stir in crayfish and let it sit in for at least a minute or 2 but not too long – won't want the flesh fall out!
8. Scoop and serve on top of the cooked pasta.. together with a handful of freshly shaved Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of parsley flakes.
2 Responses to "[Dinner] Crayfish + Clams Pasta"

MASSENA Dogs wont be running the trails around the Hawkins Point Visitors Center for the 2014 Massena Winter Carnival, but the trails still will get some use. There will be no dog sled races in 2014. The expense and fees made it prohibitive for us to do, said Miriam S. Catapano, president of the Greater Massena Chamber of Commerce and Winter Carnival chairwoman.
However, she said, the chamber can still use the trails around the New York Power Authoritys visitors center, and it is teaming up with the Nature Center at Robert Moses State Park to provide alternative entertainment. Mary (A. Danboise, Nature Center executive director) has come up with some awesome ideas, Ms. Catapano said.
Among them is geocaching Jan. 26. Snowshoes will be available for $4 a set, and participants will travel the trail finding different locations using a GPS unit and solving riddles at the locations.
The Nature Center also will host a moonlight ski and snowshoe event at 6:30 p.m. Jan. 18, she said. Skis and snowshoes will be available for rental.
Among the new events added to the Winter Carnival schedule is a Winter Magic photo contest, with participants invited to submit their favorite scene from around Massena.
The theme for the 2014 carnival, which runs from Jan. 16 to 26, is Family & Friends Winter Magic.
For more information, call the chamber at 769-3525 or visit the chambers website at www.massenachamber.com or its Facebook page.

Memorial Day at Lake SuperiorMay 27th, 2014 at 4:18 am by Bill Steffen under Bill's Blog, Weather
Click on the pictures to enlarge. On the left, BRRRRRmaids at the beach in Duluth (From Melissa Ellis, KBJR and northlandnewscenter.com), then two pictures from JC Hulst showing the Lake Superior ice and a patch of snow near Grand Marais. Finally, we have a 10-day comparison from the National Weather Service in Gaylord showing the frost (snow) on May 16 and how it looked after a relatively warm 10-day period. Temperatures reached the low-mid 80′s across Upper Michigan and N. Lower Michigan, though we may very well have a percent of ice left on Lake Superior on June 1 (we were at 4% Monday, the highest % ever so late in the season.
Also, look at the heavy rains that have fallen in Texas: Monthly rainfall: Dallas 3.18″, Oklahoma City 3.47″, Amarillo 3.57″, Corpus Christi 3.83″, San Antonio 4.80″, Victoria 6.20″, Waco 6.26″, Houston 7.16″, San Angelo 7.75″.

My concerns regarding GMO's are the following:
-The direct link between GMO and "Roundup", can one exist without the other?
-Can a farmer generate his own seed with last year's crop, or is s/he dependant on the mnfctr for providing him/her with next year's crop seed?
Yes, Roundup has been used for decades on regular crops, and as others have commented, has also been used by home gardeners. It is considered the safest of all herbicides available on the market, barring perhaps citrus-based ones but even those are so concentrated they require protective gear during application. Over a dozen people have tried to commit suicide by drinking Roundup or other glyphosate-based herbicides (god knows why, because the surfactants make it sweet, I suppose) and all but one failed. Dogs have eaten glyphosate crystals (Labs will eat anything) and survived.
Yes, small and mid-size farmers can and sometimes do grow crop for seed, but the process of hulling and sifting the crop is laborious and requires special equipment, so it is more cost-effective to buy seed from agribusinesses who specialize in crop propagation. Specialists also have the laboratories to test seed and assure quality, and they have proper storage protocols to assure the seed does not get moldy or infected during storage.
You may be interested to know that GMO seed is more expensive, and growing a GMO crop is entirely optional on the part of the farmer. Seed, water, fuel, chemicals and labor are the top 5 production inputs for most grain crop farmers. So if the cost of seed goes up dramatically, the farmer has to figure out how to reduce one of the other inputs and/or increase productivity.
Thank you.
My background is from the Canadian praries, so I am familiar with GMO's, round up, and lawsuits.
Some more questions then,
Are there then, some GMO crops that are formulated that can not, will not, bear seed?
Are there some GMO crops that are formulated so they MUST be used with round-up, or the plant will not reach maturation?

Interviewet som meningsdannelsela Cour, Anders; Knudsen, Morten; Thygesen, Niels Thyge (København, 2005)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Inden for samfundsvidenskaben ser vi et stigende antal analyser, der trækker på et systemteoretisk iagttagelsesprogram. Problemet er, at disse analyser sjældent gør sig spørgsmålet om dataproduktion klart. Og hvis analyserne anvender interviewmetoden, så udelades refleksioner over interviewet som en særlig erkendelsesstrategi ofte. Artiklen forsøger at udfylde dette tomrum. Først præciseres den videnskabelige iagttagelse med afsæt i den tyske systemteoretiker Niklas Luhmanns iagttagelsesprogram. Dernæst diskuteres den kvalitative interviewmetode mhp. at præcisere, hvilken status interviewet har i systemteoretiske analyser. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/6428

An Empirical StudyHeimeriks, Koen H.; Duysters, Geert; Vanhaverbeke, Wim (København, 2005)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper assesses the differential performance effects of learning mechanisms on the development of alliance capabilities. Prior research has suggested that different capability levels could be identified in which specific intra-firm learning mechanisms are used to enhance a firm's alliance capability. However, empirical testing in this field is scarce and little is known as to what extent different learning mechanisms are indeed useful in advancing a firm's alliance capability. This paper analyzes to what extent intra-firm learning mechanisms help firms develop their alliance capability. Differential learning may explain in what way firms yield superior returns from their alliances in comparison to competitors. The empirical results show that different learning mechanisms have different performance effects at different stages of the alliance capability development process. The main lesson from this paper is that firms can steer the creation and speed of their alliance capability development as different learning mechanisms have differential performance effects and are more appropriate at different levels of alliance capability. Key words: learning mechanisms, alliance capabilities and competitive heterogeneity. JEL classification: L14 URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7459

Towards Sustainable LawyeringHøedt-Rasmussen, Inger (Frederiksberg, 2014)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The role of the lawyer is in transition and the formerly predominantly homogeneous profes-sion has become a heterogeneous group of lawyers with diverging perceptions of the lawyer's identity and of the main characteristics of the profession. The European Union has extended the perception of democracy and the fundamental rights to include more collective rights, social concerns, global responsibility and sustainability. The dissertation's main question is: How can the identity and competences of lawyers be developed so that they can practise sustainable and proactive lawyering in the European Union? Theoretically as well as methodologically this research constitutes an interdisciplinary study, where legal science meets sociology and social learning theories. Identity development is perceived as a reflective project; there is a range of lifestyle choices which contribute to a composed but constantly shifting maintenance of self-identity in relation to democratic principles and the ideal of justice connected to the role of lawyers. The study builds on Anthony Giddens's structuration theory. This involves looking at how lawyers connect the questions 'What to do?' (societal level) and 'How to act?' (professional level) with 'Who to be?' (personal level). The study depicts a European identity ideal based on legal sources while empirical data from focus groups and individual interviews makes it possible to identify six different identities among Danish practising lawyers. It is possible to recognise the following identities: lawyer-businessman, lawyer-performer, lawyer-entrepreneur, lawyer-humanist, lawyer-integrator and lawyer-statesman. The fragmentation of the profession, with greater demand for specialist knowledge, in-creased individualisation and participation in new communities of practice, requires each lawyer to reflect on their identity and establish criteria for what, when and how they will use their lawyering skills. For this to succeed, lawyers' identities and competences will depend more on self-directed learning and individual learning plans, where the legal identity combines (global) societal responsibility with job satisfaction, authenticity and adherence to personal values.

Human Capital Inputs and the Survival of New StartupsRocha, Vera; Van Praag, Mirjam; Carneiro, Anabela (Frederiksberg, 2015)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper studies three related questions: To what extent otherwise similar startups employ different quantities and qualities of human capital at the moment of entry? How persistent are initial human capital choices over time? And how does deviating from human capital benchmarks influence firm survival? The analysis is based on a matched employer-employee dataset and covers about 17,500 startups in manufacturing and services. We adopt a new procedure to estimate individual benchmarks for the quantity and quality of initial human resources, acknowledging correlations between hiring decisions, founders human capital, and the ownership structure of startups (solo entrepreneurs versus entrepreneurial teams). We then study the survival implications of exogenous deviations from these benchmarks, based on spline models for survival data. Our results indicate that (especially negative) deviations from the benchmark can be substantial, are persistent over time, and hinder the survival of firms. The implications may, however, vary according to the sector and the ownership structure at entry. Given the stickiness of initial choices, wrong human capital decisions at entry turn out to be a close to irreversible matter with significant survival penalties.

Evidence from DenmarkBechmann, Ken L.; Raaballe, Johannes (København, 2004)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Abstract It is often asserted that stock splits and stock dividends are purely cosmetic events. However, many studies have documented several stock market effects associated with stock splits and stock dividends. This paper examines the effects of these two types of events for the Danish stock market. Consistent with the existing literature, the two events are associated with a significantly positive announcement effect of ap- proximately 2.5%. However, when examining the two events more carefully, several important results are obtained. First, a firm's motivation for announcing the two events is completely different. Second, the positive stock market reaction is closely related to associated changes in a firm's payout policy, but the relationship varies for the two types of events. Finally, there is only very weak evidence for a change in the liquidity of the stock. On the whole, after controlling for the firm's payout policy, the results suggest that a stock split is a cosmetic event and that a stock dividend on its own is considered negative news.

Janning, Finn (København, 2005)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: There is a story about two companies, and how the one was supported and dominated by the other. Even today, more than 13 years after their separation, the support and domination of one company over the other seems to continue. In 2001 NNE (Novo Nordisk Engineering A/S), celebrated its tenth anniversary as an independent affiliate within the Novo Group. The anniversary was celebrated with a huge party at the Øksnehallen Exhibition Centre located in Copenhagen, Denmark. Here NNE launched its new Corporate Visual Identity (CVI). The CVI was created in order for NNE to show the world that it strived to become the market leader in the growing fields of biotechnology and pharmaceuticals. Equally important, NNE wanted to detach itself from its supporter and dominator, the company Novo Nordisk A/S. To begin with, NNE changed its name from Novo Nordisk Engineering A/S to NNE; secondly it created a new logo; and last, as a brand promise, it stated: Unique Know How. In fact, NNE changed all of its visual identity (i.e. CVI) in a manner like that of pirates who want to change identity by raising another flag on the mast before anchoring at a harbor.

A literature review and a suggestion of how to study the issueWestenholz, Ann (, 2012)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Purpose: First, the aim is to clarify that it is worth investigating working life in Chinese companies located in Denmark. Second, I outline a way of how to empirically study the issue. Design/methodology/approach: A literature review and a suggestion of how to study the issue. Findings: There is a growing amount of literature dealing with Chinese and Western working life. The term 'Western' mostly refers to studies in North America. However the Danish way of organizing working life is not comparable to that of North America. I argue that we need to research the impact on working life in Denmark when Chinese companies settle in an institutional context like the Danish one. It is shown that Chinese institutional orders of organizing working life are very different to those in Denmark. I outline a method of how to empirically study the interaction between Chinese and Danish managers and employees working together in Chinese companies in Denmark. I argue that when these people work together, they also become engaged in institutional work dealing with the inconsistencies between the institutional orders of organizing. To study how institutional work emerges, I propose that we take inspiration from Boltanski and Thévenot's theory of justification, different worlds, and different worth. Research limitation: The empirical data gathering has just started and the analysis has yet to be conducted. Practical implications: Even though the paper is not based on an empirical study, implications for studying how working life is organized in Chinese companies located in Denmark are suggested. Keywords: Internationalization of Chinese companies. Institutional orders of working life in China and Denmark. Institutional work in Chinese companies settled in Denmark. Boltanski and Thévenot's theory of justification, different worlds, and different worth. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8644

Analyzing the illegal distribution of digital games via BitTorrentDrachen, Anders; Bauer, Kevin; Veitch, Robert W. D. (Frederiksberg, 2011)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The practice of illegally copying and distributing digital games is at the heart of one of the most heated and divisive debates in the international games environment. Despite the substantial interest in game piracy, there is very little objective information available about its magnitude or its distribution across game titles and game genres. This paper presents the first large-scale, open-method analysis of the distribution of digital game titles, which was conducted by monitoring the BitTorrent peer-to-peer (P2P) filesharing protocol. The sample includes 173 games and a collection period of three months from late 2010 to early 2011. With a total of 12.6 million unique peers identified, it is the largest examination of game piracy via P2P networks to date. The study provides findings that reveal the magnitude of game piracy, the timefrequency of game torrents, which genres that get pirated the most, and the relationship between aggregated review scores and ESRB-ratings.

Its Residual Deposits in Organizations – Implications and PotentialsLedborg Hansen, Richard (Frederiksberg, 2014)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper presents the experience and observations gained under two group relation exercises(Miller, 1990) conducted as part of two university courses for graduate student at CBS (Copenhagen Business School). The paper suggests that despite a decidedly clear ability to present themselves as authentic members of temporary organizations the students also displayed a clear inability to connect to the presentations of each other. This apparent high skillset in presenting but low skillset in relating led us to formulate a thesis of Facebook behavior aimed at describing and suggesting the presence of residual deposits from technology in organizations and its effect on individuals ability to connect to one another. Based on the case study the paper describes indications and suggests potential implication hereof. Given the inherent enhancement possibilities of technology our expectation for entertainment-‐rich information and highly interesting communication are sky-‐high and rising. With a continuous increase in digitized communication follows a decrease in face-‐to-‐face encounters and our ability to engage in inter-‐personal relationships are suffering for it (Davis, 2013). The behavior described in this paper suggests a regressive behavior -‐ one I suggest it is conditioned and legitimized by the use of technology. The risk is one of churning out callous members of society high on overt people skills but potentially incapable of building relationships. Since society is constantly looking to technology (Howard-‐Jones, 2011) for increases in effectiveness and efficiency we indiscriminately embrace digital communication and digitized information dissemination with enthusiasm – at the risk of ignoring the potentially dark side of technology. However, technology also holds a promise for better understanding precisely for the same reasons – that the growing amount of digitized communication "out there" represents data waiting to be sifted, analyzed and decoded. In this paper "Facebook behavior" refers to a particular behavior characterized by presenting your self and representations of selected self in the hope of getting a response. The responsive behavior you in turn expose your self to, can oscillate between complete ignorance as one polarization or a Like and possible a short comment being the other end of the scale – neither of which constitutes a relationship but both ends are accepted as representations of such.

Sociomateriality Made ResearchableHedman, Jonas; Srinivasan, Nikhil; Lindgren, Rikard (Frederiksberg, 2013)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: In this paper, we point to the potential and implications of digital traces as novel data source in the study of contemporary activities and behaviors. We do this to raise awareness of IS researchers of such traces in increasingly complex sociomaterial practices. We develop a two-dimensional framework of data sources (subjective/objective and digitalized/non-digitalized) for analyzing a six-year literature survey comprised of five leading IS journals. The analysis positions current data sources employed within the framework, and sheds light on the under utilization of digitalized data sources. This disconcerting result suggests that IS researchers must pay more attention to the changing landscape of data sources. To motivate and guide fellow colleagues to establish the credibility and reliability of digital traces, we develop a future research agenda that covers both opportunities in theory generation and challenges in data collection.

Direct Employment of Skilled Labour by Foreign Owned Subsidiaries and the Development of Autonomy and Intra and Inter Organizational RelationshipsGammelgaard, Jens; McDonald, Frank; Tüselmann, Heinz-Josef; Dörrenbächer, Christoph; Stephan, Andreas (København, 2006)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper develops a conceptual framework on the strategic development of subsidiaries and the direct employment of skilled labour. The framework is based on autonomy, and intra and inters organizational relationships. The conceptual model outlines the conditions that are likely to lead to too much, or too little, autonomy and intra and inter organizational relationships. This model is then used to develop propositions on the links between autonomy and intra and inter organizational relationships and direct employment of skilled labour.

The Case of Business School RankingsRasche, Andreas; Hommel, Ulrich; Cornuel, Eric (Frederiksberg, 2012)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Drawing on the case of business school rankings, we study how institutions are maintained and remain persistent despite their contested nature. We argue that rankings as institutions can be maintained through subtle disciplinary practices that freeze power relations in recipient organizations. Our analysis rests on a Foucauldian understanding of control emphasizing that rankings discipline (1) by enhancing the visibility of individuals' performance, (2) by defining 'normal' behavior, and (3) by shaping how people understand themselves and the world around them. We show that these three disciplining effects support rankings' durability, reproducibility, and communicability enhancing their overall stability and diffusion. Our arguments demonstrate that rankings' relevance and impact is not entirely based on the legitimacy they are able to offer to ranked schools. Rather rankings impel a variety of disciplinary effects within business schools which help to stabilize and diffuse the institution. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8729

What you have is called an antique radio. Search online for that term and see what pops up local to you. You can even enter the brand name, model number, and other information to get more exact information if it exists.

It can be worth a lot to collectors if you choose to sell it. It should be worth more as-is than if you had it repaired. If you want it working for sentimental reasons then that's your choice. I'd keep it in a glass case and just enjoy looking at it every day.
Likely a burner out tube - you know, those things that have the little glowing reddish light in them. Find the oldest mom and pop electronics store around. They may have someone who can help, but that is still grasping for straws. Yes, you can still buy those tubes. Companies bought them up. If you have a tube that;s not glowing, it is likely that tube. Those tubes were the predecessors of transistors. All a silicon chip amounts to is a gazillion micro sized transistors.

I'd suggest checking out a forum of radio enthusiasts, they always have a few threads on old equipment repair, and would answer such a question,

WASHINGTON D.C. (NEWS CENTER) -- Amazing video caught a police boat crashing into a docked boat as it was taking off headed to a distress call.
No one was injured in the crash and the docked boat was vacant at the time. The operators of the boat docked the boat at the restaurant in the harbor and were having a meal when the event occurred. And it turns out the boat was on loan.
The owner took the news well, noting that it wasn't the loaner's fault and hopes the harbor patrol will make the situation right.
Police are currently investigating the incident.

Clarity Guide 8: trustee protection — exoneration and indemnity clauses
Mistakes can happen, and individual and corporate trustees can be held liable for a breach of trust, whether it was deliberate, negligent or innocent. This guide from Nabarro explains the differences between exoneration and indemnity clauses in a scheme's trust deed and rules.
Exoneration clauses (also known as exemption clauses) operate so that a trustee is not liable to the scheme's beneficiaries for any breach of trust (unless there has been actual fraud or dishonesty). They can cover a wide range of conduct, including: "negligence"; "gross negligence", innocent breaches and "wilful default". The precise wording of an exoneration clause, and so the scope of trustee protection, will vary from scheme to scheme (if included at all).
The Courts have (repeatedly) held that exoneration clauses cannot exempt trustees from liability arising because of "actual fraud" or dishonesty…

Bruce updated the board on the history, current activities and future planning for implementation of the Strategic Outreach Plan. Several AREA members have been asked to serve on task force committees working on the plan. After receiving Bruce's update, members of the board reviewed and discussed minutes of the 2/7/00 meeting of the RBFF Task Force Two (education), of which Carl Richardson is a member. An area of specific concern was the importance of state ARE involvement in the grant review process being considered by Task Force Two. Carl agreed to voice the concerns of the board members present before the members of the Task Force.

Click here to download the revised site plan for the project.
A proposal for a 145-room lakefront hotel and conference center has made it to the next stage in the city's approval process, minus what was perhaps its most contentious element — a three-tier parking garage.
The parking structure was decried by almost every resident who took the microphone at a public hearing on the project in August.
David Genecco, a local businessman and owner of the Steamboat Landing restaurant, is behind the proposed six-story hotel and conference center, which would be built as an addition to the restaurant at 205 Lakeshore Drive. The resort would encompass 95,000 square feet of hotel space, including 145 rooms — of which nine would be reserved as condominiums — plus a 58,000-square-foot conference center. The design had also called for the construction of an on-site, three-story parking structure.
At a meeting of the city's Planned Unit Development Committee Tuesday night, a revised version of the plan was unveiled without the parking structure. Instead, the city would procure the roughly five-acre property adjacent to the Steamboat Landing site, on the east side, through eminent domain, and turn it into a parking lot, said Jerry Goldman, the attorney representing Genecco on the project.
"We would exercise eminent domain to take that property," said Mayor Ellen Polimeni.
Polimeni said the property's owner, Dan Homik, would be "compensated" for $1.7 million — money that would be paid by Genecco. The property, which totals 5.4 acres, would then be shared by Genecco and the city for parking, said City Manager Kay James. About two acres would be given to the city, which would be turned into parking and additional park land attached to Lakefront Park, on the east side of Kershaw Park.
Do you approve of the revised plan for the lakefront hotel � without the parking garage?(survey)
"Basically, part of the parcel would remain with Mr. Genecco for parking of the conference center portion, and the remainder would be given to the city for additional space for Kershaw, plus parking adjacent to that," she said.
Homik filed an Article 78 lawsuit against the city in September, challenging the City Council's declaration that construction of the hotel would not negatively affect the environment, based on a mandated study. It also claims the council ignored changes in zoning and site plan variances.
In 1989, approval was granted for a 160-room hotel — including 35 condominiums — on a 105,000-square-foot, five-story structure, plus a 30,000-square-foot conference center, on the same site. There were expectations at the time that Homik would offer up plans, but he never did, said Polimeni.
Homik could not immediately be reached for comment.
"I'm never a fan of eminent domain, but in this case, there's no structure on this parcel, and this is being done in the best interest of the community," said Polimeni.
Page 2 of 2 - The PUD committee approved the preliminary site plan, which will go before the full City Council at its meeting on Nov. 5. However, said Polimeni, only the hotel portion of the project — phase one — was approved. The second phase, which includes the conference center, was approved "contingent upon" the city's acquisition of the Homik property.
By the Numbers 153,000Square feet in proposed Steamboat Landing Hotel and Conference Center136Hotel rooms9Condominiums6Stories
The city will hold a public hearing on its eminent domain proceeding on Nov. 16.
"We've waited a long time to have a developer come forth willing to work on a hotel in that area," said Polimeni. "We've been anxious to complete that, and this seems like a viable project."
If the council approves the preliminary site plan at its November meeting, the designs will go back to the various planning boards in the city and the county for review. The project will then move into the final site plan review, said Polimeni, but that's "still a ways from happening."

David Lough plays leading role in Royals' power surge against Twins
Get the 1500 ESPN SportsWire delivered to your inbox daily, and keep up with all the news in Twin Cities Sports
MINNEAPOLIS -- Last in the American League in home runs, the Kansas City Royals connected twice Sunday at the most opportune times.
David Lough hit three doubles, then launched a tiebreaking homer in the eighth inning that led the Royals over the Minnesota Twins 9-8 at Target Field.
Lough hit his second homer of the season, sending a solo drive off Jared Burton (1-5) into the right-field seats for an 8-7 lead.
Eric Hosmer added a solo homer in the ninth for the Royals. Johnny Giavotella had three hits.
"We're just trying to find ways to score runs, and if that comes from the home run or through small ball, we honestly don't care," Hosmer said.
The Royals have only 49 homers this year, 24 fewer than the next-closest team in the league: the Twins.
Hosmer and Alex Gordon have seven home runs, Billy Butler has six and Mike Moustakas five. The quartet combined for 77 last season.
"They've got some hitters over there," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. "Those guys can swing the bats. I know they haven't been consistent doing it, but they've got some good young hitters who can pop a baseball."
Aaron Crow (5-3) pitched 1 2/3 scoreless innings for the Royals. Greg Holland got his 17th save in 19 chances despite giving up a home run to Trevor Plouffe in the ninth.
The Twins, who trailed 5-1 after four innings, got a two-run homer from Justin Morneau and an RBI double by pinch-hitter Josh Willingham to tie it at 7 in the seventh.
Ervin Santana gave up three earned runs and five hits in six innings for Kansas City. He has gone at least six innings in each of his 16 starts this season, the longest active streak in majors.
It has been a strong June for the righthander. In six starts, he has a 1.99 ERA, limiting opponents to 27 hits and two home runs in 40 2/3 innings. He struck out four, but also had a season-high four walks.
The Royals led 5-4 when Lough, the Royals' eighth-place hitter, doubled in the sixth off reliever Ryan Pressly and took third as Giavotella blooped a double to left-center between three fielders. Gordon was walked to intentionally load the bases before Alcides Escobar hit a two-run single.
"I don't think I've ever had a day like this, not even in the minor leagues," Lough said. "It was one of those games where our offense was going to have to put together some runs."
This was only the fourth time in 12 games that the Royals scored more than three runs.
"We've never lost confidence as an offense," Hosmer said. "We always knew we had the potential to put up days like this."
Kevin Correia, the Twins' most consistent starter, gave up five earned runs in five innings.
The Royals scored three times in the fourth. Lough hit an RBI double off the right-field wall and Giavotella had an RBI single for a 5-1 lead. Giavotella was recalled Saturday from Triple-A Omaha when the Royals designated outfielder Jeff Francoeur for assignment.
"They had a lot of hits today, between me and the bullpen, that weren't well struck but got in spots to keep a rally going or get on base and start a rally," Correia said. "It's just one of those games. We scored eight runs. That should be enough to win the game."
Clete Thomas homered in the fifth for the Twins.
Game notes
Morneau is hitting .354 with 11 doubles, three home runs and 24 RBI in his past 25 home games. ... Butler was 2 for 4, and is hitting .486 (17 for 35) against the Twins this year. ... Joe Mauer went 0 for 5 as his hitless streak reached 16 at-bats.© The Associated Press

Since the first RPS policy in the U.S., implemented in Iowa in the late 1990s, 30 states have passed similar policies to promote the installation of renewable energy projects and expedite penetration (overcoming the ambivalence or outright opposition of utilities) of renewable energy in electric power supply.

NEW YORK -- The New York City firm that lost 658 employees in the Sept. 11 terror attacks is donating $10 million to families affected by Superstorm Sandy.
Cantor Fitzgerald plans to "adopt" 19 schools in communities hit hard by Sandy and give each family $1,000 to spend as they see fit.
Cantor Fitzgerald's headquarters in One World Trade Center were destroyed when terrorists struck the tower. The company lost two-thirds of its New York work force.
Cantor Fitzgerald CEO Howard Lutnick says each family will receive a debit card with $1,000 on it.
Lutnick says he learned after losing so many employees with young children that help should come with no strings attached.
Lutnick will join Sen. Charles Schumer and other officials at Public School 256 in Far Rockaway on Thursday to hand out the first cash cards.
