AUTHOR/ADMINISTRATOR: Helen Murray
Lexington, KY
- The United States heads into the CSIO5* Dublin on top form after claiming second place honors in the Furusiyya FEI Nations Cup of Great Britain presented by Longines last week at CSIO5* Hickstead. Four members of the Hickstead squad head to the premiere Irish competition; Beezie Madden, McLain Ward, Reed Kessler and Katie Dinan will look to secure another set of top finishes for the U.S. They will be joined by Kent Farrington who was the Chef d'Equipe of the winning U.S. team at CSIO3* Bratislava.

Madden (Cazenovia, NY) was one of only six riders to jump a double clear effort in Hickstead's Nations Cup and will look to replicate that feat this weekend.

Cadence is a 2001 Swedish Warmblood gelding.
At just 19-years-old, Kessler (Lexington, KY) is already making a profound effect in the the sport of jumping. Last summer she made her Olympic debut in London and has continued to secure top results in Europe and the U.S. including finishing 10th in her first Rolex/FEI World Cup Final.

I love Whitney, and I do have faith that the show is getting better, but this episode wasn't it's finest. While, it did have some good jokes and a HILARIOUS guest appearance by Kathy Griffin, it still was left with plot hole and inconsistency's.
I wont nit-pick at the little things in the episode, but the big thing that bothered me was something that happened when Whitney and Lindsay(Kathy Griffin) were at the bar. Lindsay stated the Roxanne was a lesbian, and while I've always thought she was, there was not conformation or mention of it again for the rest of the episode. Leaving me unsatisfied and wondering if this will ever come up again in the show, but unfortunately I doubt it.
All in all it was an OK episode, but it wasn't great, and I hope that Kathy Griffin might make more appearances with Whitney keeping her job working for Roxanne.moreless

Venezuela vows all-out hunt for Ramos
Published: Friday, November 11, 2011 at 7:31 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, November 11, 2011 at 7:31 a.m.
CARACAS, Venezuela - Venezuela's government said Thursday it has sent its top investigators to solve the kidnapping of Washington Nationals catcher Wilson Ramos, a case that has shaken the nation's elite athletes and focused attention on the country's sharp rise in kidnappings for ransom.
Police found the kidnappers' vehicle abandoned in a nearby town Thursday morning, said Justice Minister Tareck El Aissami, who called it "a very important find."
He said anti-kidnapping units led by "the best investigators we have" were dispatched to the area in central Carabobo state and he vowed to rescue Ramos and capture his abductors.
"We're taking on this investigation with everything we've got," El Aissami said.
The 24-year-old player, who had just finished his rookie season, was just outside the front door at his home in the town of Santa Ines on Wednesday night when an SUV approached, armed men got out "and they took him away," said Ramos' agent, Gustavo Marcano.
"The abductors haven't made contact with the family or with anyone," said Domingo Alvarez, vice president of the Venezuelan Professional Baseball League, in a telephone interview. "We're worried."
Major League Baseball and the Nationals issued a joint statement that the league's Department of Investigations was working with authorities.
"Our foremost concern is with Wilson Ramos and his family and our thoughts are with them at this time," the statement said, adding there would be no further comment.
Ramos is a key young player for the Nationals. As a rookie in 2011, he hit .267 with 15 home runs and 52 RBIs in 113 games. He also threw out 19 of 67 runners attempting to steal a base, a 28 percent success rate that ranked third among qualifying catchers in the National League.
Washington acquired Ramos from the Minnesota Twins in a trade for All-Star relief pitcher Matt Capps in July 2010.
He is one of dozens of Venezuelans in the major leagues, and some of their families already have been targeted in a rising wave of kidnappings affecting the wealthy.
Venezuelan police said that 618 kidnappings were reported in 2009, and the numbers have grown rapidly in recent years. In 1998, when President Hugo Chavez was elected, just 52 kidnappings were reported. Security experts say the real number of kidnappings today is much higher because many cases aren't reported to authorities.
The wealthy have taken steps to protect themselves; sales of armored cars have soared in the past several years. Bodyguards typically shadow major leaguers when they return to their homeland to play in the winter league.

It's looking like the politicians of the world are waking up and realizing that pirates are pirates and non-pirates are not pirates.
Pirates would be those homicidal, old-style drunken English guys with eye patches and wooden legs, and those modern, drug-hazed Somalians who ransom and sometimes kill people. Non-pirates would be people who visit YouTube.
The latest development is the reported decision by the German government not to sign ACTA - the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement - a global version of the noxious, proposed SOPA and PIPA legislation in the US.
Our friends in Canada as well as the Obama Administration have already signed on. ACTA would create a new, independent body with responsibility for prosecuting manufacturers and purveyors of counterfeit goods, generic drugs that are verboten in commercial quantities, and trademark and copyright counterfeiting.
As with SOPA, the legislation proposes to criminalize what has traditionally subject to civil litigation. And like SOPA, the ACTA would wield a blunt instrument that equates fake Armani and Gucci with generic blood-pressure medicine and downloaded video clips and songs.
In Europe, activists and politicians have taken to wearing those Guy Fawkes masks associated with the Anonymous black-hat hacker movement. It seems ironic that opposing a Hollywood power grab and massive rewrite of centuries of copyright law and is considered revolutionary.
In any case, there are rumblings from many in Europe who had previously signed onto ACTA. One Slovenian politician, who apparently reads proposed legislation as closely as do most American politicians, said she "did not pay enough attention" to what she was signing, according to a report by the Washington Post. One could surmise she is hardly alone among her Euro-peers.
Germany is the central, driving force behind all that Europe does, so one can imagine some dominoes falling if the German government does, in fact, now actively oppose ACTA. We just saw numerous US politicians cave in the face of loud opposition - what Rupert Murdoch has tweeted as "terrorism" but many interpret as "exercising rights in a democracy." Now the other shoe appears to be dropping on the far side of the pond.

just out of curiosity, with the dt 880 is there a big sq difference between the different models (32, 250, 600 ohm)? The 50 flagship guy said the 600 ohm was the best, but nothing more than that. is it? why? how so?

This of course is a giant mystery and the topic of many debates, but from what I've seen (objective measurements), and from what little I know of electrical engineering, it would appear as though the differences between the models are subtle. Having said that, a higher impedance headphone is ALWAYS less likely to be affected by different amps of varying output impedances and retains its normal frequency response. Higher ohm headphones (like the 250 and 600ohm) models are also more robust and less prone to being fried. Lastly, high impedance headphones technically draw less current from their source, and measurements I've seen would concur that when loaded up to different amps, they result in a lower noise floor (higher SNR) which is a good thing.
I would get the highest impedance can if I had an amp/source capable of delivering enough voltage to prevent clipping or distortion. Having said that, I wouldn't hesitate to get the 32ohm version if it was my intention to use it unamped, or from a portable source. Frankly, as I currently own the 250ohm DT880, I haven't had any issues getting it to adequate volumes with my modest gear.
If you're into graphs, check these out:
The above were tested on a HeadRoom amp which I believe have a very low output impedance. Lastly, this web-link (goldenears.net) has a great comparison of all 3 as well.

Okay, thanks. That's very interesting. The graphs are, for all intensive purposes, nearly identical. And besides that point, I know sometime the graphs can be misleading. But even throwing that aside, the user rating by golden ears still placed them incredibly close to each other. So in my mind, what this comes down to is that (amp allowing) the 600 ohm ought be the first choice. Followed by the other two (as long as it's not going portable, which doesn't make a whole lot of sense, just considering the size and semi openness). However, for me, I feel like price would ultimately be the deciding factor. It seems though, at least on amazon, they are all hovering right around the same price. Thanks so much. I officially have the dt 880 as a strong contender for my next headphone purchase.
and just out of curiosity, how do the HD600 and the DT880 stack up? Would they make a nice compliment, or would they be too similar?

Just remember use a low output impedance source otherwise you may be disappointed with the results. I would love to know how many people wind up being disappointed with a headphone because they plugged their low-ohm headphone into a high-ohm amp and had some severely altered FR.
Is their any special benefit of using low output impedance?

High output impedance = Loss in damping factor = Sloppy bass, Distortion, Massacred Frequency Response.
Ideally, Output Impedance should be Zero.
To sum it up in the easiest way i know, There are three ways to control a speaker diaphragm
1. Acoustic suspension enclosure ((sealed) we will not be getting into this)
2. Mechanical damping or Qms.
3. Electrical damping or Qes.
Basically, Qms is inferior to Qes. Therefore driver designers usually try to use a more Qes dependent driver. So if you're using a high output impedance amplifier, your losing Qes.
Example of a driver showing specs so that a proper box can be made to match the driver using a program such as WinISD (specs tab)

As Xaborus has said, there really isn't any audible benefit to using a high output impedance amp unless you prefer boomy bass (in most cases). The only advantages (apparently) to high output impedance amps are that they can be cheaper, provide more electrical resistance which can protect your headphones form being fried at high volumes, and in the case of distribution amplifiers used in studios, allows various headphone to be plugged in without having wild variations in volume levels.
Always try to shoot for a low output impedance amp if you're looking to preserve the sound of the headphone. As soon as you increase the output impedance to a certain degree, the electrical changes will affect the frequency response; basically the sound of the amp will start to affect the sound of the music. Whether you want that is a personal choice, but from a technical / neturality perspective lower output impedances are almost always preferred.

Way underbudget but..
The most neutral headphones i know of are the Sony V6's. Never listened to a pair,
This is why you should not recommend headphones without hearing them..
I like the V6s because they're a good value and have been around forever, but they are the least neutral headphones I currently own and less neutral than everything in my sig other than the Ultrasones, Grados, and Maudios. "Balanced" perhaps since they have both boomy bass and bright treble and a few mid peaks, but neutral or flat? Not even slightly

The V6s are routinely argued as being "not-neutral" vs "neutral". Whatever our basis for comparison may be, or whatever we expect neutral to sound like, the bottom line is that both the MDR-V6 and the MDR-7506 consistently MEASURE neutral similar to how the HD600 and DT880 always measure relatively neutral. They certainly measure more neutral than the vast majority of headphones. The only criticism I can level at the Sony's may relate to their loss of extension in the extreme lows and highs. For the price, only the Shure SRH440 is as neutral I would say.

First a disclaimer: The V6 and its variants are variants, and they've been manufactured for a long time in multiple countries with known quality control issues.
It could be that different people hear different things from them because they're very nearly listening to different headphones. I'm not sure.
That said, for recommendation purposes I really recommend you listen to the current production V6 / 7506 rather than just go by charts.
They're quite the opposite of what you're saying.
Extension into sub-bass and high frequencies is a strength of their's, not a weakness, and they are not neutral by any stretch.
If you want to go by charts then Golden Ears tends to much more closely reflect the headphones I've owned than HeadRoom/InnerFidelity.
This isn't my idea of a neutral measurement http://en.goldenears.net/index.php?mid=GR_Headphones&category=275&page=6&document_srl=4726 and closely reflects what I hear; a sudden onset of excessive sub-bass when certain recordings trigger it and jagged spikes in the high frequencies. The mid range is actually quite good, but one only gets to enjoy it when a recording is mostly confined to that region and doesn't drown itself out with deep bass/high treble.
I do think they're great for the price but I would never rely on them for 'neutrality'.
My own comparison is listening to very flat studio monitors all day. The HD600s, DT 880s, K 702s, HM5s and other "flattish" headphones all of their flaws here and there but still sound "reliable" versus my real monitors.
The V6s are balanced in the sense that they're cost efficient headphones which can pull tracking duty in a studio then be taken home and used for music (they have enough peaks in each rough area that you aren't missing anything and nothing sounds clearly recessed), but as far as "neutral" in the context of a flat, reference FR goes, they are extremely peaky at the transition between mid- and sub-bass and the treble is quite bright.

I've owned the MDR-7506 for nearly a year, and in that time I had plenty of opportunities to AB them against the Shure SRH440, and the DT880. I personally wouldn't call their bass "boomy" as even the FR graphs you've posted don't indicate any type of boomy bass. However, I would agree that they are peaky in the treble, but certainly not to any significantly greater extent than the DT880 (and DT series) which also have very peaky treble around the 10khz mark. The Sony's are peaky around 5khz which may be why some people find them brittle, but personally it didn't phase me.
If I were mixing / mastering perhaps I wouldn't trust the MDR, but for casual listening, the V6 / 7506 come off as neutral enough - given the price. Certainly more neutral than the HD280pro, and comprable to the SRH440.
Well... I just got the Sennheiser HD-650's, and they're amazing. They are indeed, just a tiny bit warm, but it's a "darker" warmth, which makes it a bit more appealing, than the more usual "forward" warmth, that gets tiring and obnoxious after a while (like it is with the RS-1's). But the treble and bass, are exactly how it was with the studio monitors I had back in college; crisp and clear, and not too overbearing. They are just how I'd imagined them to be, from what I've read.
Thanks for the advice guys!

The Power of Blogs
What do you call it when the subject of a writing or conversation is the writing or conversation itself? I forget. At any rate, today's blog post is about—ta da!—blogs. But not just any blogs, self-storage blogs, as one was highlighted in today's news.
A release that went out on PR Web this morning identifies Tron Jordheim's blog as a testament to the fact that blogs have real power in fueling niche-business communication. Now, I'm not entirely certain where this release initiated (and I wouldn't be entirely surprised to find its roots in PhoneSmart itself), but it just goes to prove an important point:
It isn't difficult to be noticed on the Internet!
All you self-storage operators out there should be harnessing the "power of cheese" (as I now like to call it) to publicize your businesses. Start your own blog and share information about your facilities with customers and the world at large. It's not difficult to do—services like Blogger.com, Myblogsite.com, Blogeasy.com, Livejournal.com and many more make it ridiculously simple to become a blogger.
These days, people increasingly turn to the web for their daily doses of news; and many subscribe to services like Bloglines to read what other people are saying about things that interest them. Take advantage of this new tool before your competitor does. If you think it doesn't matter, guess again. And you don't need to be computer savvy either.
Actually, it's kind of wild how it works. I did a blog search through Yahoo! today and stumbled across a great article I never would have found except some guy in Montreal put a link to it in his blog. While you're here, you should read this story of Turan Kalfa, the man behind the Depotium self-storage business of Canada. It's a real "pull yourself up by the bootstraps" kind of tale. I like that.

UPDATE (6/23/2016): Gangster Vegan Organics owner Vinny DePaul told Phillymag.com that he was planning to sign the lease for the storefront at 4305 Locust St. after it was fully renovated, but "started having issues with the landlord" and decided not to continue with his plans for the space. Instead, he's eyeing a new location in the area.
Looks like Gangster Vegan Organics, a restaurant and juice bar, is not coming to Locust Street as previously reported, and the space is now back on the market.
An employee at the only current Gangster Vegan organic location (in Norristown), said that "things didn't quite work out" with the building's owner, but West Philly is not completely out of the picture.
Gangster Vegan Organics is now focusing on their expansion in Phoenixville instead.
"For Rent" signs have recently been posted on the windows at 4305 Locust St. (pictured). The ground floor space has been renovated after the fire in March 2015 that forced Cafe Renata, which was renting it at the time, to relocate to Baltimore Avenue.

Baidu.com Ready for Stock Market Debut
Baidu.com takes its name from a 900-year-old poem but its ambitions are ultramodern - to become the Chinese-language equivalent of Internet search giant Google Inc. Little known abroad, 5-year-old Baidu.com says it already is the world's sixth most-visited Internet site, thanks to a strong following from China's 100 million-plus Web surfers.
Now the startup founded by two Chinese veterans of American tech firms is preparing to follow Google's example with an initial public offering in the United States, hoping to raise $45 million. A date for the offering has not been announced.
Baidu.com is in the front ranks of an emerging group of Chinese companies that are trying to create Internet services uniquely suited to their country's ideogram-based language and the political restrictions of its communist government.
"Here's a homegrown company that has created what really is a very strong search product," said David Wolf, managing director of Wolf Group Asia, a Beijing-based consulting firm.
Baidu.com was founded in 2000 by Robin Li, who earned a master's degree in computer science from the State University of New York at Buffalo and worked for U.S. search engine firm Infoseek, and Eric Xu, a Ph.D. from Texas A&M and a veteran of American biotech firms. Xu is no longer with Baidu.com.
The name - pronounced "by doo" - means "one hundred times." It comes from a Song dynasty poem and refers to a man ardently searching for his lover in a festival crowd.
It didn't take Google long to see the firm's potential. It bought 2.6 percent of Baidu.com last year in a move that outsiders thought might lead to the American search engine taking over the tiny Chinese startup. But Baidu.com has stayed independent.
Google's influence shows, though, in Baidu.com's spare white Web site that is nearly identical to its investor's.
By contrast, competitor 3721.com - bought in 2003 by U.S.-based Yahoo! - is a busier, colorful site with animated graphics.
Other early backers include U.S.-based venture capital firms with a reputation for spotting promising newcomers: Draper Fisher Jurvetson - Baidu.com's biggest shareholder, with a 28 percent stake - and the investment arm of International Data Group.
Baidu.com's IPO is modest beside the $1.2 billion that Google raised through its public offering last August. But its tentative price for the block of shares being offered values the whole Chinese company at $650 million.
The company says it is already making money - some $303,000 for the three months that ended on March 31.
China's communist government promotes Internet use for business and education. But it has also launched sweeping efforts to police online content, blocking access to material deemed subversive or pornographic.
The extent of the censorship controls has been highlighted by the changes that foreign companies make when they launch Chinese versions of commonly used services.
Free-speech activists criticized Microsoft Corp. when the blogging section of its recently launched China-based Web portal rejected such words as democracy, freedom and human rights, labeling them "forbidden language."
A search on Google's China-based service for such topics as Taiwan, the Dalai Lama or the banned spiritual group Falun Gong returns a message that says "site cannot be found."
And communist leaders, early believers in the Internet's economic promise, seem intent on keeping foreign involvement to a minimum in order to keep the profits for China's own firms.
Baidu.com's decision to stay independent could help it with intensely nationalistic Chinese regulators, eliminating any doubts about divided loyalties, said Wolf.
"It's a company that has grown up in the Chinese system. It's going to be a favorite of a lot of partners here and an implicit favorite of the government for that reason," he said.
Internet firms with foreign partners have been challenged by regulators who demand assurances that Chinese managers will stay in place and not surrender control to outsiders.
Baidu.com, 3721.com and other Chinese search engines also face daunting linguistic challenges that designers working in English and most other languages don't.
Chinese uses thousands of ideograms. On a computer, they usually are written by typing words phonetically in Roman letters, then using special software to convert them to characters.
Making things even more complex, the mainland's communist leaders simplified many characters after the 1949 revolution, while Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore and other societies use the old system.
So a search engine must sift through twice as many characters. And Chinese is written without spaces between words, making it hard for a machine to figure out where one ends and the next begins.
Then there are the quirks of a writing system with a vast literary history, 1 billion modern users and pressure to keep up with technology and international commerce. Baidu.com's advertising notes that Chinese has 38 ways to say "I."
Financial analysts forecast fast growth but brutal competition in the industry over the next few years, leaving only a handful of competitors.
Already, Baidu.com has been through a court battle with 3721.com after accusing its rival of adding elements to its software that blocked users from reaching the Baidu.com site.
A Beijing court ruled against 3721.com in April, ordering it stop such "unfair competition."
The lawsuit "did much to reinforce Baidu's underdog image," said Wolf. "That turned out to be very positive for them in China. It made people check them out."
