Sugarloaf Mountain, right here in Carrabassett Valley, is our school's home mountain. Sugarloaf has the largest vertical drop of any ski area East of the Rockies, and offers varied and challenging terrain for our student-athletes to train on, as well as unparalleled support of competitions and training. CVA Alpine racers train on Sugarloaf's "Narrow Gauge," one of the only FIS-certified downhill courses in the east. This trail was host to the World Cups in 1971, and the U.S. National Championships in 1996, 1997, 2006, and 2008.
CVA has established itself as a premier school for Alpine skiers. It has often been said that "the road to the Olympics goes down Narrow Gauge," which is why, in 2015 and 2017, Sugarloaf will again be the site of the U.S. Alpine Championships.
Bode Miller is CVA's most decorated Alpine graduate. Bode was the 2004/05 and 2007/08 Alpine overall World Cup champion and has also brought home six Olympic medals (one gold).
Michael Savage is the Alpine program director and is an alum of the first class of four-year students at CVA in 1986. Coach Savage has competed both nationally and internationally, and helped coach Kristen Clark, one of CVA's most successful Olympians. To read more about Coach Savage and our other alpine coaches, click here.
Alongside Coach Savage's extensive knowledge, CVA also has a state-of-the art Antigravity Complex (AGC). This training facility is the only one of its kind in New England and ensures optimal dryland training through our Human Performance Program.

Pre-Nuptial Agreements
Pre-Nuptial Agreements
A pre-nuptial agreement is a contract entered into by a couple before marriage, which aims to clarify how their assets will be divided in the event of divorce.
The law relating to pre-nuptial agreements is under review and there are calls to make them legally binding; there have been recent cases where the pre-nup has come into play during UK legal proceedings.
Even though they are generally not enforced in the divorce courts they may, however, be taken into consideration by a judges.
A pre-nup gives each person the chance to record their assets as they stand before marriage, and decide on a division of assets should the marriage break down.
Extra clauses may also be added to determine other factors, for example the custody of pets, shared possessions etc.
A family law solicitor should draw up a pre-nuptial agreement.
Post-Nuptial Agreements
Recently, post-nuptial agreements have attracted attention following a landmark legal case. A post-nup allows a couple to set out the division of assets during their marriage - not before like pre-nup - if they were to divorce. It is a popular idea for those who, for example, inherit money while they are married.
Post-nups also apply to couples who have decided to divorce but not yet begun proceedings meaning that, in theory, couples can try to settle their own terms rather than leaving it to the courts.

Offering his take on Steam, senior producer Jason Bergman said the platform is tightly integrated with New Vegas. Steamworks is implemented in "as light and unobtrusive away possible," and it will be mandatory to play the upcoming Fallout. That said, you can install the game on as many systems as you want, and besides the initial activation, an Internet connection isn't required.
Tight Steam integration also means that New Vegas will rely on the platform for friends lists, storing user preferences in the cloud, achievements and so on. Additionally, you can activate and download the retail boxed versions of the game via Steam, meaning won't have to lay hands on the DVD if that's the way you want to go.
Fallout: New Vegas is due in the third quarter and made our list of 2010's most anticipated PC games. It's a stand-alone installation in the series that follows three years after the events of Fallout 3 and although it shares a similar gameplay experience to the previous entry, there are no reoccurring characters.

TC TO ALEXANDER CARLYLE ; 27 May 1839; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18390527-TC-AC-01; CL 11: 117-118
Chelsea, Monday, 27th May, 1839—
My dear Alick,
I do not find that I have a single word to say to you today: but the frank will carry another bit of paper, and that may as well go with a salutation to you as not.
The Letter I wrote the other day was, I daresay, one of the most confused; but it was only the better emblem of my own state on that account: you would be able to spell out of it some reasonable scheme for your own procedure if you went to Carlisle on saturday. I have written a Letter to Jack, which is still lying here; unfolding the condition of the matter. If you actually get a Gig, it will be interesting news to me; especially I want to know if the new Horse be a smart trotter? Nothing in all the Physician's pharmacopeia is worth naming beside that for me.
You will find by Jean's Letter that I have in view to write an Article on the Poor People. I have long felt a kind of obligation to do it. I offered last year to Mill, but he refused unless I would come to the conclusion that their situation was gradually improving!1 I did not think him wise in that refusal, but I said nothing. This present Article I partly intend for Lockhart and the Quarterly Review, the organ of the Tories. Lockhart I have seen and talked with about it; he is a man of sense and breeding, very anxious to have me write the thing if it can at all be made to suit; which I think it may really be; for it is a plain truth to me that I have found among the Tories, the best kind of Tories, far more fellow-feeling [for the] Poor, than among that rubbish of Radicalism, which in general has sympathy with nothing but its own self-conceit.— The Article will cost me a good deal of reading and trouble; but I can take plenty of time for it; there will be no printing till some time in Autumn. It will be a matter well off my hand at any rate; for I have really had a kind of conscience about it for a good while, and felt as if I ought to write it.
My Mother has got little from me but Newspapers of late; I hope to write to her again before very long.— We rejoice much in the account you give of your business, of your prospering in it. That is a very tolerable income, it seems to me; far beyond what one could have expected; and a kind of life, not indeed without its vexations, but perhaps freer from them than most.— Good be with you my dear Brother. Our kind affection to one and all,—beginning with Tom and Jane.2— Ever Your faithful
T. Carlyle

Dominica's health minister Julius Timothy has told his nation, in a Dominica News report on April 28, "Presently the ministry of health is being overwhelmed by the presence of of the Chikungunya virus." The tiny Caribbean island has seen over 800 reported cases of the mosquito borne illness since it was first detected in mid-January. Dominica is just one of several locales where the disease has exploded in numbers.
The April 25 report from the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) on chikungunya cases in the Americas shows 4,116 confirmed and 31,431 suspected cases. On the French island of Martinique, five percent of the population has had either confirmed or suspected chikungunya since the illness was first reported in Dec. 2013. The small island nation of Saint Vincent & Grenadines is the latest to announce locally acquired infections, with 3 confirmed cases and 24 suspect.
The Dominican Republic announced its first confirmed cases of chikungunya the week ending April 18. As of the PAHO report on April 25, it is reporting 17 confirmed and 3,015 suspected cases. Dominican Today, in a news report dated April 28, quotes the Public Health Ministry as announcing 3,690 suspected chikungunya cases throughout the country.
The chikungunya outbreak on the French island of Reunion, off the coast of East Africa, in 2005-2006 suggests the potential growth in the numbers of chikungunya patients. The Institut Pasteur reports that in the 13 month epidemic there were 270,000 cases of chikungunya in an island population of 750,000. More than one third of the island's population was sickened.
Haiti shares the island of Hispaniola with the Dominican Republic. There have been no reports of chikungunya from Haiti. Puerto Rico lies between the Dominican Republic and the islands of the eastern Caribbean where the illness continues to spread. It, too, has not reported any chikungunya cases thus far.
Chikungunya is new to the Americas and there is little or new immunity to the illness among the population. The number of illnesses and the rapid growth in numbers will present difficulties to the public health authorities in most of these impoverished nations.

Alleged Undocumented Immigrant Served as a Volunteer Sheriff
An allegedly undocumented immigrant served as a volunteer sheriff in Henry County, Alabama. (Joe Sohm/VisionsofAmerica/Getty)
By TED HESSON (@tedhesson)
Dec. 12, 2012
A sheriff in an Alabama town knowingly allowed an alleged undocumented immigrant to act as a volunteer deputy sheriff. Meanwhile, his office went about the business of detaining and reporting suspected undocumented immigrants to federal authorities.
Canadian immigrant Kevin Dwight Venhuis has served as a reserve deputy sheriff for the Henry County Sheriff's Office for 25 years. Now he could face federal charges for illegally possessing firearms while being in the country without authorization, which carries a penalty of up to 10 years in prison.
Hungarian, Latvian refugee claims among those to be fast-tracked as Canada unveils 'safe country' list
Tobi Cohen, Postmedia News | Dec 14, 2012 11:02 AM ET | Last Updated: Dec 14, 2012 5:18 PM ET
THE CANADIAN PRESS/Sean Kilpatrick
Minister of Immigration Jason Kenney unveiled on Friday Canada's new list of "safe" countries from which refugee claims will be fast-tracked.
OTTAWA — The federal government has unveiled a preliminary list of 27 countries Canada believes are unlikely producers of legitimate asylum claimants, touching off a wave of criticism from refugee advocates who say the new rules set to take effect Saturday are arbitrary, unfair, dangerous and illegal.

Canada Shows How U.S. States Can Fix Immigration
By Shikha Dalmia Nov 28, 2012 6:37 PM GMT-0500
Republicans seem ready to play ball on immigration, if only to patch up their image with Hispanics. It would be a pity if this political moment — which comes only once every few decades — was squandered on minor and temporary fixes. U.S. immigration policy needs a fundamental rethinking.
This isn't as daunting as it appears. For inspiration, Americans need look no farther than Canada.

Miles Davis: The Doo-Bop Song
The Doo-Bop Song
Miles Davis (trumpet)
Doo-Bop (Warner Bros.)
Miles Davis (trumpet),
Easy Mo Bee (production).
Recorded: 1991
Rating: 87/100 (learn more)
Miles Davis, jazz's most prolific experimenter, collaborated with hip-hop producer Easy Mo Bee for what became the trumpeter's last album. Davis injects his cool, muted sound throughout the song, which is orchestrated over a familiar piano riff. The only downside to this song is that the rapping halfway through kind of dampens the mood; but still this record proves why Davis could float between musical styles like it was no one's business.

The rumor mill is kicking into high gear over the idea that Fujifilm is working on a medium format, mirrorless camera line to be unveiled as early as the end of summer. The information comes via two anonymous (of course!) sources who have contacted the website Fuji Rumors.
So, could this be true?
Personally, I'd take this information with a grain of salt as the editor of Fuji Rumors even suggests readers do, too.
Disclaimer aside, if the rumors are true, the possibilities with the new camera series are intriguing. For starters, the camera is said to be using the same Sony-made chip as is used in the Pentax 645d and will look like the X-Pro1, albeit much larger. Lastly, the camera could hit stores as early as the end of summer.
Needless to say, the possibility is intriguing, but could the rumor be true?
My take: possibly. To create a whole new type of camera and launch it with lenses to go along with it is a major undertaking. However, Fuji, one of the smaller players in the photographic industry, has done just this in the last 2 years with its X-mount line. In the years since the X-Pro1 and the couple of lenses announced with it, Fuji's X-mount lineup has grown considerably in both cameras and optics, meaning that it is possible for even a smallish company to pull off this endeavor.
That said, it seems as though Fuji could have the resources to go the direction of launching a new system overnight. The big question is whether Fuji's top brass has determined that such a course of action will be profitable.
In the end, only time will tell.

OSGi and JSR 277, Bad Vibes
The vibes that I am getting from JSR 277 are not very good. I have tried to contact Stanley Ho (the specification lead) several times over the last weeks but he plays deaf, awfully deaf. Maybe SUN should switch to other mail-servers? The Expert Group started end of June and was supposed to finish before September. It is now February and the information is deafening me. When I desperately tried to get into the JSR 277 Expert Group, Stanley Ho promised regular information updates. I still have to see the first.
The JSR 277 process shows clearly what is wrong with the JCP: too much secrecy and unchecked control by SUN. I know several participants in the Expert Group but they can not discuss matters with me due to the confidentiality clause in the contract with the JCP. Normally Non Disclosure Agreements are intended to prevent people from publishing information that needs to mature. In this case, however, there is genuine fear that they will be used if people tell me the ins and outs of this expert group. I understand the need for confidentiality in certain cases; in this case it is however abused. I fail to see why I could not sign an NDA to receive updates of the EG.
JSR 277 is a crucial JSR, one glance on the Mustang description shows that Java will collapse under its own weight unless it can be broken up in smaller chunks. I recall making a graph in ?97 about the exponential increase in packages in java between Java 1.0, 1.1, 1.2; it does not look like the rate has slowed down. Moore?s law has clearly saved Java from oblivion. However, the lack of dietary discipline has caused a huge split in the Java world: J2ME and J2SE, and not to forget the zillions of configuration profiles that exist today. I have participated on what is probably the most silly JSR ever: JSR 197. The only thing we did during more than a year was to allow javax.microedition to be used in J2SE environments, which is basically just a licensing issue. The mess Java has become could have been prevented (and can still be corrected) when all Java APIs are delivered as modules/bundles. Using OSGi (like) technology, the device/PC/server can download any module it requires to run. Believe me, the current model does not scale and is what I call a perfidox, a measure that achieves the opposite of its intention. Profiles were created to give developers stable environments by minimizing the number of configurations they have to program for. Talk to developers today, the world is too diverse for this. We need devices that can download the APIs they need.
At the OSGi Alliance, we have 8 years of experience in this area and tens of thousands of bundles have been created. We learned over 4 releases what worked and what did not work. The specifications ended up in tiny embedded computers with 8 Mb flash but we also run on mainframes with tens of gigabytes. Companies used for a single unique application while others had 10 million downloads in the last year. It is clear that the specifications have proven itself over time, something that is clearly reflected in the adoption rate.
From a technical point of view the OSGi specifications should be a godsend for Java; it takes time to get to such a mature specification. I am sure that the OSGi Alliance is willing to license the specifications at no cost; the OSGi Alliance is looking at adoption of OSGi/Java technology in as many devices as possible. Adoption by Java at large has always been the goal. So how is it possible that this potential marriage in heaven is not consumed?
I really have no clue.

Anyone can make money investing in Real Estate....especially since I did.
4 years ago I quit a 20 year career job and went into business for myself investing in real estate. Starting with $5,000 and a vivid imagination I started investing in real estate. Today I own over 50 properties including apartment complexes, residential and commercial properties. I enjoy being my own boss and working my own schedule. My goal is to pass on what I have learned. I also enjoy golfing, reading, and travel.

Euphorbia trigona
More about Euphorbia trigona
Euphorbia trigona 'Royal Red' is a beautiful rich burgundy cultivar of Euphorbia trigona. A cultivar occurs when an environmental or other factor causes changes in a plant. A cultivar is not a hybrid; It is rather a change in the DNA of the cells of one unique plant. In the case of the 'Royal Red', rather than the forest green of Euphorbia trigona, the stem is a lovely marbled burgundy with undulate, reddish burgundy margins and some small burgundy leaves during the active growing season. Excellent for use in bright areas of the home or office or as a patio plant in more temperate regions. In time, becomes a much branched shrub to 6' in height. Responds well to warmth, with its active growth period in the late spring and summer months. Porous soil with adequate drainage. Water thoroughly when soil is dry to the touch during active growing season. Requires bright light for best appearance, and should be given a winter resting period at which time less water should be given. Protect from frost. Remember, all Euphorbias contain a white sap that can be irritating to the skin and eyes. Wash hands immediately in soap and water if contact is made with the sap. Avoid touching face and eyes while handling Euphorbias.

Looking for answers to the recent sell-off, Wall Street's spin machine can't be truthful about how hedge and private equity funds make hay. When valuations and price-to-earnings ratios get too high because of a bull market, it's times for funds to take profits. Profit-taking is the least acceptable reason why Wall Street sells-off. Profit-taking sounds greedy, unlike better excuses like geopolitical problems in the Mideast, Ukraine or more typical reasons related to macroeconomics like slowdowns, recessions or changes at the Federal Reserve. Attributing downturns to profit taking isn't fashionable. When funds decide its time to sell, temporarily go into cash or bonds, and wait patiently until share prices drop to buy back in isn't easy to watch. Inflated valuations or overpriced stocks are number one reason why funds decide its time to sell and wait for prices come down.
When corporate profits and stock prices hit record highs, it signals time for a sell off to bring prices in line with historic moving averages. Profits can't rocket upward indefinitely without taking a pause, regressing back to the mean. Profit margins, earning and stock prices all move together, suggesting that the correction help bring valuations into line with earnings, prompting more selling once inflated values come back to earth. With Federal Reserve Board Chair Janet Yellen speaking to the New York Economic Club next April 16, markets will be looking for guidance, especially about the Fed's intention with quantitative easing, its bond buying program. Since former Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke started quantitative easing to counteract the Great Recession of [2007-2009], Wall Street has grown dependent on economic stimulus, also prompting the current sell off.
Yellen knows that taking money off the table by reducing QE3 could slow stock market growth by removing speculative capital in the market. Worried that the Fed was "taking away the punch bowl," hedge and private equity funds have begun to take profits. Reducing the cash investment in Wall Street also creates suction, removing overall investment in stock funds. When less cash—whether borrowed on margin or not—comes into Wall Street, share prices start collapsing, bring price-to-earnings ratios down to more affordable levels. Because Yellen will continue pumping plenty of cash into Wall Street, the current sell-off should run its course, currently dropping the tech-rich Nasdaq 7% and blue-chip heavy Dow Jones Industrials and S&P 500 down 3%. Even some tightening by the Fed should not trigger a bear market but instead cause funds to eventually buy back into the market.
With bond yields at historic lows, it's not likely that the current pullback will trigger a sustained rally in the bond market, driving more investors into cash or bonds. Whether taking a pause or not, equity investors haven't given up on the current bull market. Watching share prices drop to more affordable levels should trigger the next market rally, raising share prices again to appropriate levels. Even if the current 3% drop in the Dow or 7% drop in the Nasdaq doubles, it doesn't signal a bear market. As long as the correction accomplishes the goal of bringing share prices down, current profit margins and earnings should improve. Real market "corrections" are at least a 10% drop in share prices. Since we're only at 3% to 7%, the current selling trend could continue into well into the second quarter. To meet profit targets, funds must sell shares high and buy them back at bargain prices.
When the bull market started March 6, 2009, the Dow stood at 6,443 compared with its Friday close of 16,026 or about a 150% increase. No bull market can sustain an endless upturn without trimming share prices. "There's skepticism among investors about the outlook, and we're getting into the first-quarter earnings season, so you're going to see some positioning," said Brian Jacobsen, strategist at Wells Fargo Funds Management in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin. With S&P 500 companies looking at 0.9% earnings growth, Jacobsen sees more selling to bring price-to-earnings ratios in line with real growth. "You've seen small caps dominate," said Jacobsen, hinting that, with more volatility, investors are shifting to quality blue chip large cap stocks over less stable small or medium cap stocks. Having milked profits from small caps, fund manager have shifted to blue chips.
When profit taking seizes markets, small investors shouldn't panic and start bailing out of stocks. Big fund managers are doing their jobs dumping small cap stocks after record profits over the last two years. After hitting records profits, the Nasdaq's biotech sector has been selling off for over a month, losing about 21% from the index's record close Feb. 25. With price-to-earnings rations exceeding 34.4%, the biotech sector sold off trying to get more in line with the S&P 500's 14.9 PE ratios. Taking profits in the highly speculative biotech stocks signals that hedge and private equity funds have become more conservative, rotating into large cap stocks. Exchange traded funds [ETFs] have watched weeks of outflows from speculative tech and biotech companies. "Valuations are going to start becoming relevant again, at least for a while," said Uri Landesman, president New York-based Platinum Advisors, confirming that the "flight-to-quality" has begun.

College Hockey:Boston College Joins Top Five Ahead of Title-Deciding Series
The top four spots in the USCHO.com Division I Men's Poll have been pretty stable over the last five weeks: Denver and Miami taking the top two spots in some order; Wisconsin holding third; and St. Cloud State grabbing fourth.
That fifth spot has been a bit of an enigma, with four teams taking turns. The latest is Boston College, which on Monday moved up two spots to join the top five after Yale was pushed out of the position.
Related link: USCHO.com Division I Men's Poll: March 1, 2010
The Eagles, winners of eight of their last 10 games and in a tie for sixth in the PairWise Rankings, defeated Merrimack and Massachusetts last week to keep alive their chance at stealing the Hockey East regular season title away from New Hampshire on the final weekend.
To do so, BC needs to sweep a home-and-home series with the 10th-ranked and first-place Wildcats, who own a three-point advantage with two games to play.
On the heels of claiming the WCHA's MacNaughton Cup last weekend, Denver earned 48 of the 50 first-place votes Monday. Miami claimed the other two.
Yale, North Dakota, Bemidji State, Cornell and New Hampshire round out the top 10.
Alaska made the biggest gain over last week, jumping three spots to 14th after winning the Governor's Cup with a sweep of Alaska-Anchorage.
Union took the largest fall, dropping three spots to 18th after losing at Cornell and at Colgate.
Northern Michigan entered the rankings at No. 19, while Boston University dropped out after being swept by Vermont.
With three leagues opening postseason play this weekend, there are only two series between ranked teams this weekend. One is the Hockey East title decider; Boston College plays at New Hampshire on Friday before hosting Saturday's rematch.
No. 1 Denver and No. 15 Colorado College play the other, also a home-and-home series. The Pioneers get the WCHA hardware before hosting Friday, and the Tigers close the regular season at home Saturday.

LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Another Los Angeles earthquake today 2014 has just struck La Habra in Southern California. The latest Los Angeles earthquake today March 31, 2014 began moments ago. Damage assessment is pending.
Officials tell news that a 2.7 magnitude Los Angeles earthquake today 3/31/14 began just after 11:17 am PST today. The quake was shallow. Reps tell news that the quake was less than one mile below ground level. As a result the quake could felt across the immediate region.
The quake was one mile east of La Habra. It was one mile NW of Brea and three miles SW of Rowland Heights. The quake was four miles north of Fullerton and close to Anaheim. And it was near all the recent quakes since Friday.
The strong La Habra quake on Friday has been followed by several aftershocks. On Saturday, one of the strongest hit Rowland Heights. Also that day, several smaller quakes hit Brea.
The latest round of Los Angeles earthquakes today are expected to continue. But the Rowland Heights quake over the weekend still remains one of the strongest aftershocks since Friday. Most quakes have been shallow. They have all been on the same fault line. Several homes, moreover, got red tagged and suffered structural damage on Friday. Unlike the Encino quake in recent quakes, the La Habra quakes have not been felt substantially across West Los Angeles.

(Picture 1) Krypto: I look good because Felix Vasquez makes me look good on his reviews! (I know, shameless promotion, so sue me)
Why do you caption this when you only know I will kill you for it? (J/K. Felix is a great guy.)
Krypto: Well...there it is, Ace. Ace: What? Krypto: The moment that the caption contest really jumped the shark. Ace: Yup.
It only jumps the shark when we use the same picture twice. Know...your...concepts!
Krypton: Ok, bathound, on the count of three,.. we eat streaky.
Dont let the captions go to the dogs. (sf13 gets pellted with socks filled with rancid yogurt)
Cripes - they let Elongated Man into the JLU. Elongated Man. But they don't invite us. What's up with that?!?
They only did that because the Challengers of the Unknown told them what would happen to his wife. They pitied him.
"All Dogs Go to Heaven" - never was an outcome more desired after seeing these pictures.
Did you know that Ted Bundy's first dog was a collie named Krypto?
Curioser and curiouser when you learn that Hitler's dog was named Ted Bundy! Okay. I made that up.
Well...I hexta-dog-dare you! NOW it was serious. A hexta-dog-dare. What else was there but a "hepta dare ya"? And then, the coup de grace of all dares, the sinister octuplet-dog-dare.
Bathound has a utility collar. See, I watched the show once. (In best Joe Piscopo voice) Once.

Old school fans: "Hey, hey, someone is missing." Krypto: " Has anybody seen Gleek?"
I ate Gleek. He was trying to take over the Earth. Charleton Heston told me to. Something about mind controlling guys who talked in feedback and regrets about losing his friendship with Roddy McDowell. I don't know, really. All I heard was monkeys, and I was like, dude, I'm there.
Krypto: C'mon guys Scooby called us 'Rellow'. Are we gonna take that sitting down? Why did we all just sit when I said that?

No milking tractor jokes allowed...right.
Holy....mother...of tractors! He's RIGHT! It's there! Now, I don't see how this makes us hypocrites, but I have to admit, that is a KOOKY coincidence. Good catch!

It is the one thing everyone dreads getting.... you wake up with a scratchy throat, post nasal drip, feeling tired and sore.... generally not feeling like dealing with the world or any part of humanity for that matter... Yes the influenza as it is notoriously known. So... you have it, what are you going to do about it?
A virus is one of the most insidious and intelligent pieces of code floating around the world currently.
Alright, it is time for the fastest article that this article-maker has ever written. This is going to be like a military drill for info. It is going to be swift and ever-so functional. Something you can take home to your mama and be like "Hey.... check this out -_^."... Yeah it doesn't matter if it doesn't make sense yet because it will.
The following is a fast-track boot camp on how to regain some traction when a cold has you down on all fours and it's beating you like you were the weakest link. Nobody likes being the weakest link so here's to making yourself stronger. The author despises.... well maybe not despises but once was very weak immune-wise in his past so he has learned a lot the hard way, so take it from him as he writes himself in 3rd, 2nd or whatever person this is.
So here's the strategy: Stay up all night, have lots of incredible se..... oh... sorry wrong article.
The Do's: Rest, hydrate with filtered water drunk from glass, consume probiotics of a high caliber (Inner Eco young coconut water kefir), consume superfoods like spirulina and chlorella, zinc yourself.
The Don'ts: Consume any sugar, dairy, processed foods especially carbohydrates (cereals and grains will only add fuel to the fire that is any infection), kiss anyone or any of that jazz who may be infected (yeah starting to sound like the beginning of a zombie novel).
Pretty much in this order above. This is an incredibly brief article just to quickly summarize the tactics and strategies of someone who is an expert at getting sick and therefore does not get near as sick near as often anymore due to the above awesome combo of greatness. Yes... professionalism has been only slightly replaced with a sort of.... personalism. Yeah, welcome to the authors true writing style. One must learn to diversify the articles in order to reach as many people with as much useful information as humanly possible, so this is the attempt that is being made here.
Yes ladies and gentlemen the above really is that simple to keep your immunity healthy provided you do not have special needs. It's the basics on steroids, so see the author's other articles on spirulina and chlorella to see why those two superfoods are the go-to for your revamped immune system.
As for more tips?.... Well, if you burn both ends of the candle than you must also do something about increasing adaptogenic herbs and superfoods into your habits... because without them you may find yourself in a gutter dying or something akin to that. Here is to hoping humor is not lost on all of you wonderful readers and here is to telling those very talented viruses to leave you alone altogether.
More on the front of regenerative medicine. Reversing age... something this author is obsessed with clearly, as images from the movie The Fountain flood his mind... but what if you could live hundreds if not thousands of years? Well, take a look at what scientists at Yale University are concocting currently in the field of reversing age. Just check out the Cell Cycle Speed Is Key To Making Aging Cells Young Again scientific article.

good luck! ;)
looks beautiful so far! Very Audionote with the copper top.
It is designed by Andy Grove, so there is an audionote connection I guess. It really is a great kit, casework is very nicely finished, transformers weigh 5 kg each.... it's making me sweat moving it around to work on it now
Hi Dik,
that really looks sweet! Please keep us updated on your progress and particularly any snags you may hit - I'm seriously considering one of these later this year.
Andy Groves . what a designer . Anyone remeber the Onkarus monos he made.

So far it's going together well, but much slower than I first estimated.... this is my first project that uses tagstrips and hardwiring.... requires more thinking than I am used to
Ah yes the rats nest of wires
Good luck with it and keep us informed.
looks v. good dik
cabling needs tidying - check the innards of the manley stingray , some ideas there.
are you using solid core or stranded wire ?
which soldering iron do you use?
Thanks Kiang.
It is mostly solid core silver plated teflon covered wire, and yep I agree it still needs tidying up, it's not quite finished yet, still a little more wiring to do andno cable ties used yet=) Some wires I have left deliberately long for now, like the ones from the transformers to the tag boards. I will leave 'em like that untilI start on the upgrades..makes changing stuff easierI think, and hopefully wont induce too much hum... we'll see...
Soldering iron is a cheapy maplins 25w job. As soon as I finish this coffee I'll get to it,I want to hear it sing today!
it lives
From 1st turn on, no smoke, buzzing, hummimg or farting noises - a good start. It has a beautiful delicacy with a pure openness that makes me want to keep listening to record after record. As it warmed up the sound gained in tonal colour and depth, can't wait to hear what it sings like when it's fully run in. ( takes 100 hours or so according toNick at hificollective.)
I was half expecting it to struggle driving my 89db-ish transmission line speakers, but so far it's got more drive and grip than Arnies wanking hand. This thing has HUGE transformers, with a seriously well designed power supply.
It looks great, sounds fabulous- i'm very impressed by the kit, and feel well chuffed with myself, too=) Must fight off thoughts of blackgates, paper in oil caps, silver this n' thats...for at least a week=)
The only pic I have of the finished amp so far is this one :
Many congratulation on the birth of your new baby
congratulations on a job well done!
Wish I had the guts to give something like this a go!
Me too biscuit! Ive often tempted by one of these
but never quite had the courage...
Well done Dik, I take my hat off to you!
How many hours did it take you by the way? I can see from the thread its taken about a fortnight but don't know how many hours you worked per day etc
Thanks guys=)
I cant be sure how long it took, I worked on it for 8 hours a day sometimes, then on others only a couple. I think I could have done it faster if I were more confident, but I seemed to spend 2 hours thinking, then 5 minutes soldering=)
Construction was pretty straightforward, with very clear pics to follow, but the instructions don't hold you by the hand,I had to think for myself ( which is never good).. but if I can build one anyone can. Just need to be able to solder to an "ok" standard, and plan ahead a little, refering to the pictures, the circuit diagrams and the text sort out any confusion-It's a little like 3d lego or mechano with wires. This was my first build that used tagstrips/hardwiring, they are pretty easy to use, just need decent pointed nose pliers and half decent eyes=) I had to keep taking breaks, coz my eyes aren't too keen on staying focused for long =)
There was one slight contradiction I spotted in the instructions, concerning the wiring of the mains transformer. One quick email to Nick Lucas cleared that up ( he had modified the design to allow for a wider choice of mains input voltages ) It was reasuring to know that Nick was only a phonecall/email away, He even offers to finish part built kits, and offers a "turn on burn in" service for the nervous........ I was tempted.... the first time turn on is nerve wracking, even tho I used a variac to wake her up gently=)
I can heartily reccomend the kit, the service and the company. Building it was fun=)
Forgot to mention: "vibbles" has a site up for his hifi including a glasshouse 300b, with some nice pics. I visited there a lot. Thanks=)
nice one , dik
I would do the capacitor upgrade now while things are fresh in ones mind
lets face it - how long can you really put it off
Kiang wrote:Hehe, hopefully I can fight that urge for a while ....i'm skint now. Besides, I want to run it in first, then upgrade to the "best" quality bits I can afford...one at a time. I would like to try different makes of valves too, but 300b's get expensive=)nice one , dik

Research Summary
My research programs focus on the mechanisms through which memories can be formed and retrieved in the service of flexible, adaptive and goal-directed behavior. I investigate how the medial temporal lobe memory system interacts with prefrontal mechanisms of cognitive control. I also investigate how basal forebrain, striatal and dopaminergic midbrain regions modulate this prefrontal-mediotemporal interaction by prediction errors, anticipation, motivation and reward. This line of research integrates functional imaging, electrophysiology and magnetoencephalography with genetic and structural anatomical information as well as pharmacology. It is relevant for a better understanding of cognitive dysfunction in healthy aging as well as a number of neurological and neuropsychiatric conditions that my group studies such as amnesia, Parkinson's disease, attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder and schizophrenia.

• Wilkie (S, 4) 1IP 1H 0R 0BB 2K
• Hulett 1-3, R, RBI
• Flores 1-4, R, RBI
• Aubrey 1-1 2BB
Thanks to three runs scored in the sixth inning, the Chiefs were able to take the lead and win the game, defeating Norfolk by a score of 4-3. While it took five pitchers to get the win, Stammen earned it, pitching six complete innings, allowing three earned runs on nine hits and seven strikeouts. Wilkie also earned his fourth save of the season, pitching a scoreless ninth. Hitters of the game were Hulett, Flores and Aubrey who collectively went 3-for-8 with two runs scored, two RBIs and two walks.
New Britain 4 Harrisburg 1

• Norris 2-4, 2B, RBI
• Lombardozzi 2-4
• Gilbert 2-4
A four-run eighth was the undoing for the Senators, ruining a fine outing by Shairon Martis, as Harrisburg lost, 4-1. Martis laid seven goose eggs on the top of the scoreboard, giving up just three hits and a walk while striking out five. Pat McCoy would face just six batters and give up all four runs to blow the save and take the loss. Derek Norris's two-out RBI double in the fourth was the only hit in nine chances with RISP, as the Senators stranded seven baserunners. Norris, Steve Lombardozzi and Archie Gilbert each collected two hits in the loss.
Frederick 2 Potomac 0
• Demny (L, 1-3) 6IP 5H 2R 2ER 3BB 4K
• Nelo 1IP 0H 0R 0BB 2K
• Perez 2-3, CS
Poor baserunning undid what little offense Potomac was able to bring last night, as Frederick Keys locked them out, 2-0. Paul Demny took the lost with both runs allowed on five hits and three walks. Justin Bloxom was picked off first in the ninth, doubled off second base in the second while Francisco Soriano got gunned down trying to advance to third on a ball hit to short. Eury Perez went 2-for-3 to improve his average to a team-best .329, as Potomac got just four hits in getting shut out for the seventh time this season.
Kannapolis 2 Hagerstown 1 — SUSP, T3
• Grace 3IP 5H 2R 2ER 1BB 3K

• Sanchez 1-1, R
Sanchez's RBI single in the bottom of the 1st tied the game at one apiece but Kannapolis fought back in the top of the 3rd to score an additional run to gain the lead. Due to the weather, the game was called in the 3rd inning, with the Suns trailing by a score of 2-1. The nine-inning game will be completed this morning, followed by a seven-inning contest for a daytime doubleheader.

What do you guys think Stammen's role is in the system at this point? He's certainly cemented a rotation slot at Syracuse. What do we do with him? I feel he's a supplementary trade piece at this point, but I don't know. Is he the first guy called up if there's injury?
I'm not sure 9 hits cements your spot, but point taken.
But a 7K:0BB ratio might. His K:BB ratio has been ridiculous. Of course, this is why I think he's AAAA. He pitches too much into the zone for my tastes until I see significant improvement in person. Some AAA hitters can't blast his stuff as far when it's sitting over the plate so he can avoid walks.
I think Stammen is destined to be a AAA starter, unfortunately. He's a great guy and puts together good streaks of pitching but doesn't have what it takes to consistently win at the MLB level.
Ask yourself this though: what trade value do you think a guy like Stammen really has? I think its naive to be a nats fan and go, "oh, well we can just trade this guy who couldn't beat out 5 other guys for a rotation spot and is arguably the 9th best starter in our system" and think we can get something of value. Every other MLB team also has a AAA squad, probably full of guys like Stammen themselves.
Right now his WHIP has dropped to 1.03. Maya's is 1.01. He leads the team in strikeouts after seven games. He is the only starter with a complete game and shutout to his credit.
Nice rotation in Syracuse with Maya, Meyers, Stammen, Milone, and Detwiler. Detwiler is doing "the Mock" again. But he is still young. Most of the previous starters (with the exception of Stammen and JD Martin) have been demoted to AA or placed on the DL. All, except for Stammen, are no longer on the 40-man.
Stammen is going deeper into games … he still looks like a starter to me.
Be still my heart. Ollie Perez is making his debut start for Harrisburg tonight. [facepalm] Didn't realize Maya's got his ERA down so low. Any spies around from Syracuse who can share if he's looking DCerish?
Souldrummer if you watch Maya you see that he is Livo, except a lot younger. Maya will be 30 in August. They are going to have to find out what he can do sooner rather than later.
If he manages to get control of the multi-speed curves and combine them with a decent 90+ fast ball inside he may be effective in the majors as a starter. I think he
still needs to up his velocity to push 94 on the inside pitches to right-handers. He definitely needs to refine his Livo-stuff but should not completely live off of that. Major league hitters seem to figure it out by the 4th or 5th inning. I'm not sure he has realized that yet? In his case the pitch-to-contact mantra could work extremely well.
Stammen's Minor League results never really had much impact when he was promoted to DC. His problem was consistency. He was taken out of the starting rotation last year after August 4th with a 5.06 ERA and placed in the bullpen.
In 16 appearances out of the bullpen Stammen only had 2 appearances of more than 2 innings and 11 appearances 1.2 innings or less and he only had 3 shutdown innings in all of his relief.
His overall WHIP was 1.5 and 2.9 Walks per 9.
And those numbers would have profiled him as a #5SP on most ML rosters, which is the role he served until Maya was called up, IIRC.
Finally a good outing by Martis. Peacock and Brad Meyers in AA put up stealth numbers with sub-1.00 WHIPs and sub-2.50 ERAs.
Anyone have any updates or reports on Derek Norris' catching this year? Wanted to see/hear if his praise in spring training has carried over into real game performances.
I saw him catch in Richmond.
I generally liked what I saw.
He still has the occasional hick-up with catching pitches, as he had a passed ball on a Peacock curveball that was chest high to the hitter and right down the plate, Norris just simply missed it and had it go to the backstop.
His arm is as strong as advertised and he showed solid agility when he had to block pitches in the dirt.
He's still rough around the edges, hence the easy passed ball, but I think there's definitely a major league catcher in him.
I've liked what I've seen so far except (as David points out) there are WAY too many balls he simply just doesn't catch and I can't figure out if it's a glitch in concentration or what it is.
I think everything else that has to do with catching he's improved between Game 1 and 36 (calling a game, cs %, psychologist to the pitching staff, etc).
The other non-catching thing I have been absolutely impressed with is his hustle. No one runs harder than him to first on a routine grounder or a pop-up.
At the Richmond game… there was 4-5 scouts with stop watches on Norris as he ran out an infield ground out.
They were all raving about how fast his split time was.
Wow, thanks to all the scouts who have been watching him. Great stuff!
Ah, reassuring news from additional sources. Like Sue_D said last year, having Norris develop behind the plate is like marrying a model who can also cook; Win-Win.
From Fangraphs and Marc Hulett: a review of the 2008 draft:
The Washington Nationals
1st Aaron Crow, RHP, Missouri (DNS)
2nd. Destin Hood, OF, Alabama HS
3rd. Danny Espinosa, SS, Long Beach State
4thx- Graham Hicks, LHP, Florida HS
5thx- Adrian Nieto, C, Florida HS
15thx- J.P. Ramirez, OF, Texas HS
Things got a whole lot better for the Nationals after this draft (Stephen Strasburg and Drew Storen in '09 and Bryce Harper in '10). Crow failed to sign and eventually agreed to terms with Kansas City. He's been lights-out in the big league bullpen in 2011. Hood shows potential but he's struggling a bit in high-A ball this year. If he can trim down on his strikeouts he could develop into a useful fourth outfielder. Espinosa was handed the club's second base job this season but he has yet to show that he can hit big league pitching. In parts of two seasons (241 at-bats) he's hitting .203/.288/.407. He's also suffered from a low BABIP during that stretch (.230). Ramirez has shown flashes of potential with the bat, but he's having a rough season in high-A ball. Hicks was traded to the Chicago Cubs earlier this year as part of the loot for starter Tom Gorzelanny. Nieto has been a disappointment as a pro and is currently on the restricted list. Louis Coleman (14th), like Crow, is now a Royal and has also been solid out of the big league bullpen. Steve Lombardozzi (19th) has a chance to develop into a starting second baseman, or a valuable bench player. Unsigned Anthony Meo (43rd) and Alex Dickerson (48th) both have the chance to be taken in the first two rounds of the 2011 draft. [This is where Rizzo really shines going overslot on players like Ray and Cole.]
From a fan's view regarding Hulett's comments: Losing out on 1st-rounder Crow got the team Storen in 2009 (a draw at worst, possible win at this point). 2nd-rounder Hood was a all-round athlete, going to Alabama on a FB full-ride, IIRC; He's still raw and has a bit left to prove, but is still reasonably young having just turned 21. 3rd-rounder Espinosa shifted from SS to 2B without a hitch at the ML-level defensively; He just turned 24, has shown occaisional power at the top level & can switch-hit – A keeper, in my book. Hicks in the 4th-round has already been swapped for a more immediate piece (Gorzelanny), so he's out of the equation. #5 Nieto is dealing with a PED suspension & may well not work out. #15 Ramirez is at high-A, and may or may not work out. #19 Lombardozzi keeps climbing the rungs in the minors & could make the jump to the 40-man in 2012.
Overall, this was the last draft that Bowden had any influence over – a mixed bag to date, but has indirectly yielded three major-league players to date with Espinosa (draft), Storen (draft-DNS supplemental), and Gorzelanny (trade) from the first five rounds. Not perfect, but certainly acceptable.
[…] Tuesday 5/17 game reviews (Stammen, Martis, Demny, Grace) […]
