Good 3.9 /5 from 82 reviews
Not good at all. A/C wasn't working. Room stunk of pet urine. Dirty floor and clogged up shower drain. Bad customer service at front desk on first day at hotel. Breakfast was ok. Would not recommend this hotel even at the low price.
The hotel is family owned, and appears that the owner rules with an iron fist. Overall the location is convenient, the price is reasonable but I would try to find another hotel for us next time.
The hotel was clean and the staff very helpful and friendly. The walk was a little longer to the tower than our last place but still close. The breakfast is OK, could be better, mostly bread. Front desk staff gave us great advice for visiting the Tower in the morning.
We all loved this hotel. We stayed for 2 nights in December of 2013. We booked the quadruple rooms, which came with a double bed and two singles. Location was great, exactly a mile from the train station down easy walking streets. The leaning tower was about 3 blocks away. The service was delightful, with friendly English speaking front desk staff. The breakfast was perfect, with cereals, breads, fruit, and a coffee machine that I honestly wanted to make out with. My favorite part was the hotel's rooftop deck, where we could sit at night with a great view of the leaning tower.
Brilliant hotel, big comfy bed, egyptian cotton towels and spacious power shower all in a great location.

Muslim Organization Receives Suspicious Powdered Substance And Message About 'Painful Deaths'
CREDIT: AP Photo/Pablo Martinez Monsivais
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) building in Washington, D.C. was evacuated Thursday by the D.C. Fire Department after the office received an envelope with a "suspicious" powder substance and a hate message, Nihad Awad, the National Executive Director, tweeted.
D.C. firefighters responded to the incident at the prominent Muslim organization with Hazmat gear. Some staffers have remained quarantined inside the building. According to Buzzfeed, the initial testing of the substance came back "negative."
"We have a foreign substance in the mail today with three staffers still quarantined on the inside until they can determine what the substance is," Ibrahim Hooper, CAIR's National Communications Director, told ThinkProgress in a phone interview. He said that other staffers were outside, but "semi-quarantined."
Hooper noted that the hateful message contained a message about "painful deaths," but didn't go into further details.
Additionally, Hooper told DCist, "We receive threats on almost a daily basis, so it's nothing new for us. But a suspicious substance — that's new. We don't normally publicize threats to ourselves but when you have to evacuate, it's a little different."
— Nihad Awad نهاد عوض (@NihadAwad) December 10, 2015
On the heels of the deadly shooting in San Bernardino, California and terrorist attacks in Paris, France, there has been widespread backlash against Muslims in the United States. ThinkProgress has documented more than 30 instances of Islamophobic attacks, threats, and harassment over the past several weeks.
CAIR also recently released a preliminary report documenting the "unprecedented" backlash, which the organization partially attributes to a "mainstreaming of Islamophobia by political candidates and lawmakers in the run-up to the 2016 general election." For instance, GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump has called for an outright ban of Muslim immigration into the United States. Meanwhile, Jerry Falwell, president of the right-wing Liberty University, said that students should arm themselves and "end those Muslims."
On Thursday, the CAIR Bay Area office in Santa Clara, California reported that it also received a suspicious letter containing a white powder substance. The sender's name was labeled "infidel," according to a local NBC news affiliate. A reporter tweeted that several CAIR employees were taken to the hospital to be checked out as a precaution.
This is a breaking news story and will be updated as more information emerges.

News in Brief
The Northern Virginia Technology Council is offering to help the Veterans Affairs Department fix its IT problems on a pro bono basis, and a bipartisan group of nine senators is urging the administration to accept the offer.
In a June 5 letter to President Barack Obama, the senators -- Michael Bennet (D-Colo.), Richard Burr (R-N.C.), Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga.), Joe Donnelly (D-Ind.), Al Franken (D-Minn.), Mike Johanns (R-Neb.), Patty Murray (D-Wash.), Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), and Mark Warner (D-Va.) – pointed to a previous volunteer effort to fix the data records system of Arlington National Cemetery, and urged Obama "to work with us to implement a similar cost-effective, private sector initiative so we can begin restoring the trust of our veterans and the American public" in the VA.
Tourism is poised to be the next private-sector industry to benefit from the unleashing of government data.
To help local businesses and tourism offices, the Commerce Department released its 2013 report on international visitation to the United States, which included five important data sets: total international arrivals, top overseas regions, top 50 markets, comparison of pleasure to business visitors and top ports-of-entry.
The travel and tourism industry has grown exponentially from 55 million international visitors in 2009 to 70 million in 2013, according to a Commerce Department blog post. President Barack Obama recently announced his goal to increase that number to 100 million visitors annually by the end of 2021.
The data will help local businesses and tourism officials determine what kind of travelers visit their state, and where those tourists are coming from.
"Understanding what types of tourists visit your state can help you tailor your marketing techniques to those groups of people," the post said. It also pointed to opening up data as a means to create job growth.
Defense-contracting giant Northrop Grumman will develop a navigation system for the Defense Department that the firm said could reduce dependence on GPS and other external signals. The contract for the "miniaturized navigation grade inertial system" has an initial value of $648,000 but a "potential value" of $13.4 million, Northrop Grumman said in a June 5 statement that left that value difference unexplained.
The technology falls under a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency program that seeks to combine "micro-electro-mechanical system and atomic inertial guidance technologies into a single inertial measurement unit," Northrop Grumman said. The Falls Church, Va.-based firm added that it plans to use acoustic wave and nuclear magnetic resonance technologies to develop the inertial measurement unit.
"This microsystem has the potential to significantly reduce the size, weight, power requirement and cost of precision navigation systems," Charles Volk, vice president for Northrop Grumman's Advanced Navigation Systems business unit, said in a statement.
The U. S. Army Aviation and Missile Research Development and Engineering Center awarded the contract.
Will HealthCare.gov run on Amazon's cloud?
Efforts to revamp the site continue, and key functions -- like the ability to automate payments to insurers -- must still be deployed. The Wall Street Journal reports that the Obama administration is "scrapping significant parts of the federal health-insurance marketplace in an effort to avoid the problems that plagued the site's launch last fall," and is turning to Amazon Web Services to host certain components for the health insurance marketplace.
HealthCare.gov has been hosted primarily by Verizon Terremark, and was thought to be moving to an HP cloud later this year.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
How Clean Is Your House?
On How Clean Is Your House?, a television program imported from Britain, two irreverent women -- Kim and Aggie -- visit filthy homes and teach the owners how to clean, tsk-tsking them in the process of finding grease on the oven, goo on the counters, and layers of dirt everywhere.
It's good clean fun if you're a viewer -- until you happen to think: What would I do if they knocked on my door?

Safer Food For a Healthier You
Pesticides in produce, hormones in milk, antibiotics in meat -- what are all these extra ingredients doing in our food?

If housecleaning isn't your thing, or the word alone give you hives, you're not alone. Help abounds -- there are dozens of how-to-clean-house books and web sites out there. But what you may really need is a new attitude, a personalized schedule for cleaning, and tips on how to make the whole job less painful. So why not start with a novel approach to housecleaning basics that goes beyond the standardized lists?
Clean House Attitudes: The Basics
Instead of focusing on a rigid housecleaning schedule dictated by someone else, consider the needs of you and your family, then decide how clean your house has to be, says Cynthia Townley Ewer of Richland, Wash., the editor of the web site Organized Home and author of Houseworks: Cut the Clutter, Speed the Cleaning and Calm the Chaos.
For example, if you have young children, elders, or someone who is immune-compromised, you may need a much more rigorous cleaning schedule, Townley Ewer says, than a household of healthy young adults.
When you do compose a housecleaning schedule based on your needs, don't think of it as simply a to-do list, Townley Ewer says, but as a launching pad to allow you to easily delegate some of the cleaning. After all, it should be a team effort, she says.
How to Clean House: Minimum Maintenance
First consider minimum maintenance: which tasks that must be done on a daily basis to keep the household afloat, says Townley Ewer.
Depending on family size, this might include washing a load of laundry, wiping the kitchen counters and sink after meals, and giving the bathroom a basic cleaning.
"Every family needs their own set of minimums," Townley Ewer tells WebMD. How it shakes out will depend on such factors as family size and individual comfort levels about cleanliness.

Aloha & Welcome to our Ohana :) Mindy has lived on Kauai for 30 years - Meeting Hubby David shortly after Hurricane Iniki (he came over to help rebuild from NC *and to Surf!). The two young 20 year olds fell in love, married barefoot on the beach in Poipu & had (3) children Noelani (age 20) just finished her 2nd year of college to be a teacher, Ben (age 14) loves video games & making movies, Cayden-Henri (age 8) like his dad loves to surf & eat chocolate ice-cream! Mindy now owns her own Physical Therapy Clinic & David is a computer programmer at Kauai's Pacific Missile Range.

Kalaheo is a beautiful, rural, quiet, cooler area on Kauai. You will find a lot of runners, bikers, & walkers in this small, one stop light town.
Beautiful, New, Oceanview Community, with stunning views throughout .
Quiet, beautiful, scenic walks of ocean and valley views.
Your apt is nice and comfortable, clean and quiet. We really enjoyed our stay! We will be back!
We enjoyed our stay at the Murray's vacation rental. Although it is part of their house, it is fairly quiet. We appreciated the fact that there were no roosters in the neighborhood waking us up at 4 am, unlike the condo we had rented on the North shore. The rental location was convenient for going to the Waimea Canyon and also Poipu Beach.
I'm just now back home from having spent 12 wonderful, peaceful days and nights staying at this rental. It's in a nice residential neighborhood away from the tourist centers and problems that can be associated with them. The room was clean and had everything needed with the possible exception of a little more counter space. The Wi-Fi worked well and kept me connected with family and friends back home. The owners were warm and welcoming. A nice place to stay all the way around.
We had a wonderful stay - thank you!
The room is big enough for two and is equipped with a private shower, kitchen, couch and a comfy bed. Furthermore there is a private entrance to get in and out at any time without disturbing the owners.
There are also laundry possibilities in the garage.
This is a perfect place to stay for exploring the island with short driving distance to Lihue airport and the Canyon.
We found this unit to work well for us. It was central to all the south and west side activities. The unit was clean and as pictured. It is in a neighborhood and in the lower part of the owner's house, so it has the noises one would expect from such a location. No late night parties, just ordinary life sounds which did not bother us at all. We did cook meals and found all we needed to do that, although the limited counter space required some inventiveness. Still it completely doable. The outside area was nice, gets some morning sun filtered by a shading vine. The owner also thoughtfully provided beach chairs and towels. The most convenient grocery store for us was the BigSave in Port Allen, a few miles beyond Kaleheo on Hiway 50.
We really enjoyed our stay here. The apartment is small, but it has everything you need. The lava wall gives privacy from the street so you can enjoy the small outdoor area in front. Unlike most rentals, it is in a residential area. The location is fairly central so you have easy access to anywhere on Kuau'i. You have access to the community pool, a real plus.
We stayed two nights in this nice studio in Kalaheo and totally enjoyed it. Mindy and Dave made us feel welcome right from the beginning of our stay. The living room offers everything we needed and is tastefully furbished. There is a folder with many helpful suggestions for activities and restaurants. The bed was very comfortable and there was enough room for storage of our luggage. Having breakfast on the patio with a breathtaking view on the ocean was really great! Thank you so much for your hospitality.

Google unveiled two new products to help businesses expand to international markets, the Official Google Blog posted. The site, Google Ads For Global Advertisers, "will serve as a central hub for Google's tools and tips for businesses looking to expand to foreign markets", while the tool. Global Market Finder, "helps businesses identify markets with high demand for their products or services."
The Global Market Finder is in essence a keyword translation tool that shows volume of searches for products in 56 languages and 100 countries. You can filter by global markets – sort of like the country bundles option in Adwords. Though, as the site notes, there are differences between the two:
* automatically translates your keywords and, if applicable, shows alternative translations
* calculates each location's Opportunity Score based on broad-based matches of translated keywords
* organizes market opportunities by location
The markets are given Opportunity Scores. "Opportunity Score is a dynamic metric based on local monthly search volume, suggested bid, and competition between different locations in your target market. If two locations have the same search volume, then the location with the lower suggested bid receives a higher Opportunity Score. Similarly, if two locations have the same suggested bid, then the location with the higher search volume gets a higher Opportunity Score."
The new site "will serve as a central hub for Google's tools and tips for businesses looking to expand to foreign markets. This website pulls together resources for businesses to find the right market for their products and services, translate their websites and ad text, find new customers with relevant online ads, and understand options for international payment, shipping and customer service."
As the blog post concludes, "there are more than 1.9 billion consumers online. Wouldn't you like to add some of them as customers??

Joe Friday's birthday is April 2, 1925 according to the CA driver's license made for his undercover assignment. It lists him as Male, with Black hair, Brown eyes, 6', and 170 lbs.
Trivia from Friday's intro:
1) Computers could read and store 140,000 words in 2.5 micro-seconds. They were showing tape drive (RCA Spectra 70).
2) Of the average 25,000 deaths in LA 300 of them will be by murder.
Possible goof: Friday gives the percentage as .82%, but when you do the math it is .012 not the .82%. .82% of 25,000 is 205 not 300.

Crystal Harris
Crystal Harris has everything Playboy founder Hugh Hefner looks for in a woman: blond hair, a generous chest and a willingness to pretend that age is not an issue -- until now. The current Playboy cover girl just ended her engagement to the 85-year-old media mogul, despite plans to wed on Saturday.
AppealIf you had to imagine the archetypal Playboy Playmate, Crystal Harris would be it. It doesn't matter if her hair is naturally blond or if her breasts are genetically meant to be size 34D. What matters is the illusion of a Malibu Barbie in human form, and Harris embodies this completely. The 25-year-old beauty is symmetry on acid with a spray tan -- just the way Hef likes it.
SuccessA lot of women have dated Hugh Hefner to get famous, but no one has upped her star factor by dumping him so royally as Crystal Harris. With just days to go before she was supposed to tie the knot with the 85-year-old media mogul, Harris called off the wedding, despite already gracing the July issue of Playboy with the words "Mrs. Crystal Hefner" across the cover. Hefner responded by slapping "Runaway Bride Inside" stickers on every copy destined for newsstands near you, but the joke is clearly on Hef. It turns out even the world's most infamous playboy can turn into a cuckold (rumors have already started claiming Crystal cheated). As for Crystal Harris, she's already concentrating on her burgeoning music career.
Crystal Harris BiographyCrystal Harris was born on April 29, 1986, in Lake Havasu City, Arizona, the youngest of three sisters to British parents who worked in an England-themed amusement park. Although the Harris family returned to England after Crystal was born, they eventually moved back to the United States, settling in San Diego, California, where Crystal grew up with her sisters.
crystal harris and playboyCrystal Harris went to La Jolla High School and then San Diego State University, where she majored in psychology. While attending university, Harris started modeling and eventually caught the attention of the Playboy enterprise. In January of 2009, she began dating Hugh Hefner, along with the Shannon Twins, after Holly Madison left the aging media mogul because he was non-committal.
crystal harris gets engaged to hugh hefnerBy December of 2009, Crystal was the Playboy centerfold, and by January of 2010, Hefner asked the Shannon Twins to move out of the Playboy Mansion and into the neighboring Playmate House in order to be exclusive with Crystal. On Christmas Eve of 2010, Hefner proposed to the blond bombshell, despite a 60-year age difference.
crystal harris calls off the weddingOn June 14, 2011, just five days before her wedding to Hugh Hefner, Crystal Harris called off the wedding, despite already gracing the July cover of Playboy magazine with the words "Mrs. Crystal Hefner" across the cover. Hefner responded by slapping "Runaway Bride Inside" stickers on all the copies destined for newsstands.
"I called it off because I didn't think it was the right thing for me to do," Harris told Ryan Seacrest during his radio show. "It was mutual between Hef and I. There was no fight. We sat down, and we talked about it... For a while I've been having second thoughts about everything. I haven't really been at peace with myself lately. I didn't think it was really fair to him…They were gonna air a show on it. It was all happening too fast for me."

Dr Rubert "Jacques" Von Hamsterviel
Goof: When Lilo is updating her logbook of experiments who have found "their one true place", one of the photos yet to be placed in the book is of Zap (603). But Zap is still a prisoner of Gantu and at the end of the episode, we see him escape with the others, so it is not possible for Lilo to count him in the list of successfully rehabilated experiments.
Lilo said that they have 18 experiments to break out of Gantu's ship, but Gantu himself said he only had 17, not including Nosy.
In this episode, all of the experiments Lilo left to Gantu are rescued including Angel. After accidentally being set free after Hamsterviel was forced to send the experiments back to Gantu Nosy makes his way back to Lilo and Stitch and informs them that all of the experiments are now in Gantu's ship. They break in with the help of a bunch of other experiments and while they are caught Angel breaks out sets Stitch free and they free everyone else. Gantu is trapped by Snafu who is turned from bad to good by the touching moment when Stitch admits he loves Angel.
The "Angel" episode is revisited at the scene where Stitch fails to protect Angel.
After Plasmoid breaks Gantu's blaster, when Tank is eating it his teeth, and all the detail in his mouthe disapear!
It was shown that Angel and Stitch can break open those containers, while no other experiment can. Angel has been inside it for months now. Why didn't she break out earlier?
It couldn't have been that she just 'needed Stitch for motivation', because she didn't realise she loved him until he showed up, and anyway, wouldn't she have wanted to break out and be with Stitch, if that was the case?
Lilo: (To the experiments) I'm gonna train you until your trainers are sore!
Gantu: (Singing Off-Key) But You'll look sweet upon the seat of abicycle built for two! (625 Screams)
625: Holy Guacamole! that last note actually curdled My mayo!
Bonnie: (After hitting an obstacle) Ooh, right in the kisser.
Lilo: I guess I was wrong, love can't conquer everything.
Angel: L-Love?
Stitch: I...I...Yes! Love! Stitch loves Angel! Me come save Boochie Boo! (Snafu starts crying)
Angel: (Excitedly) He come save Boochie Boo! He come save Boochie Boo!
Gantu: 625, I'm going to make you an offer you won't refuse.
Stitch: (Shouting out to Lilo) I'll be back home later!!!
(The last line of the series)
Lilo: I love you too, Stitch!
Stitch: Stitch loves Angel!

To be added
B: Miscellaneous Notes
--> "SNAFU" is an acronym for Situation Normal: All Fouled Up, means plan ruiner
--> This episode most likely comes right after Woops in the timeline. Nosy goes to Lilo and Stitch and tells them that experiment 600 ratted Hamsterviel out, and that all the experiments were sent back to Gantu!!
--> We see Nosox for the first time. And we see two new experiments Tickle Tummy and Stamen. And we see Fudgy's whole body
--> This episode takes place after Tank, Angel, Dupe, Hunkahunka, Amnesio, Felix, Bonnie&Clyde, Finder, Sample, Holio, 627, and Houdini, and it occurs before Spike and The Asteriod
--> We see that Stitch has a shrine of Angel!
--> This episode continues from the episode, "Woops".
--> Lilo has the last line in the series.
--> This is actually the last episode.
--> None of the rescued experiments' one true places are shown.
--> We learn that Sparky eats batteries!
--> Angel's back pattern is different from the way it used to be when we first saw her. Also, after she breaks her container, the markings disappear altogether.
--> Well, for those that think Felix (010) was renamed, think again. He was never renamed! He was only called Felix in this episode!
-->Bonnie and Clyde are paroled.
--> Stamen is experiment 103.
--> The 17 experiments that are rescued from Gantu's ship, are: Fibber, Thresher, Poxy, Felix, Hammerface, Heat, Fudgy, Tickle-Tummy, Hunkahunka, Amnesio, Plasmoid, Zap, Slimy, Tank, Nosox, Stamen, and of course ANGEL!!!
--> The main experiment is of course, is Angel!

An upper sideband peaking circuit is coupled across the input of the amplifier. The amplifier with the peaking circuit, in response to an amplitude modulated carrier wave, provides an amplified replica of the input wave with a uniform amplitude over a selected range of sideband frequencies.

In the prior art, this type of amplification in television transmitters has been done using vacuum tubes. The amplifier typically drives a four cavity klystron which in response to an input signal at 10 watts can produce an output power of 30,000 watts. An effort to increase the use of solid state design makes it desirable to transistorize this driver amplifier. It has been found that while a typical transistor amplifier circuit provides flat R.F. amplification over a desired UHF television carrier frequency band, the amplitude of the detected video output, which is required to be maintained substantially constant (:05 db) out beyond 4 MHz above the carrier, drops considerably beyond 0.5 MHz above the carrier and does not meet the required customer specifications t-0.5 db out to about 4.2 MHz beyond the carrier frequency).
BRIEF DESCRIPTION Briefly, there is provided by this invention a radio frequency transistor amplifier suitable for use as a television transmitter driver-amplifier for amplifying modulated carrier waves having carrier frequency components and sideband frequency components. The amplifier includes a transistor having input, output and common electrodes with means coupled thereto for suitably biasing the transistor. The biasing means includes a degenerative resistor coupled between the input and common electrodes. Input and output impedance matching networks for the transistor are dimensioned and arranged to provide input and output coupling of signal energy over the operating frequency band. To prevent the amplifier from exhibiting at its output a drop in the amplitude of upper sideband components relative to the uniform amplitude thereof in the received amplitude modulated carrier wave, a peaking circuit is coupled across the input of the transistor and in response to the amplitude modulated carrier wave operates to increase the relative amplitudeat those upper sideband frequencies in the output amplified wave to compensate for said drop.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION A more detailed description of a preferred embodiment of the present invention follows in conjunction with the following drawings:
FIG. I is a schematic diagram of an amplifier according to the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a plot of frequency vs. amplitude for an amplifier arrangement as shown in FIG. 1 without a peaking circuit.
FIG. 3 is a plot of the desired and achieved frequency vs. amplitude characteristics for an arrangement as shown in FIG. I with a peaking circuit according to the present invention.
Referring to the schematic of FIG. I, there is illustrated a UHF television frequency amplifier l0, capable of amplifying UHF signals to provide output power levels up to 5 watts with 0.5 watt input. When two such amplifiers are connected using a hybrid (not shown), for example, l0 watt output power is achievable. The output of these amplifiers can be used to drive a four cavity UHF klystron which can produce with 10 watts input an output power of 30,000 watts. The UHF television frequency bands extend from 470 to 890 MHZ. The circuit 10 includes a transistor 11. The particular transistor device used is, for example an RCA 2N6266 supplied by RCA Corporation, Somerville, N. J. This transistor is normally used at frequencies in the higher 2 GHz region. This transistor however includes emitter ballasting which permits it to operate at lower frequencies. This transistor is suitable since no relatively high power transistors are available at the above mentioned UHF frequencies.
The transistor 11 is biased using a temperature compensating power supply 12. The negative terminal (Vcc) of this power supply is coupled via resistor 25 and inductors l9 and 40 to the emitter 17 of transistor 11. Capacitors 21 and 23 are UHF television frequency bypass capacitors to bypass the signals at the UHF carrier frequencies from the power supply. Capacitor 27 bypasses any of the television video frequencies from the power supply 12. The positive terminal (Vcc of supply 12 is coupled via RF choke coil 31 to collector 16 of transistor 11. The base terminal 15 of transistor 11 is coupled to a point at ground potential. Capacitors 33 and 63 bypass signals at the UHF carrier frequencies from the power supply 12. Capacitor 64 bypasses any of the lower television video frequencies from the power supply 12. The biasing level of this transistor 11 is adjusted, for example, so that with resistor 25 the device is operated in the linear region (transistor 11 is operated, for example, to no more than one half capable output power) and class A. The value of resistor 25 is made large enough to prevent secondary voltage breakdown of the collector base junction of transistor II at the maximum RF. power output level. The value of re sistor 25 is made small enough to accommodate constant and relatively high gain. The resistor 25 provides a sliding bias which extends the linear operating range of the transistor by changing the class of operation from Class A at low input R.F. (UHF frequency) power levels to class C at high input R.F. (UHF frequency) power levels. In the instant case for producing between 0.024 and 5 watts power output, the input power would be between 0.002 and 0.5 watts. The low input power level (class A operation) would therefore be near the 0.002 watt level and the high input power level (class C operation) would be near the 0.5 watt level. The temperature compensating power supply 12 includes means for sensing the temperature at the transistor 11 and for changing the bias level to the transistor with changes in temperature from a selected normal temperature to achieve operating characteristics which are independent of temperature.
Coupled across the base-emitter circuit of transistor 11 is an input impedance matching network 35 comprising a variable series coupling capacitor 36 and a pinetwork of a series inductor 37 and parallel capacitors 39 and 41 and a pair of series inductors 38 and 40. Coupled across the collector-base of transistor 11 is an output impedance network 45 comprising inductor 47, and capacitors 49 and 51. The input and output capacitors and inductors are adjusted to provide input and output impedance matching with essentially a linear 3 gain over the desired operating UHF television frequency band (524 to 530 MHz for example).
It has been found that although unmodulated carrier frequency waves within the 524 to 530 MHZ frequency band are coupled out of this circuit with substantially uniform amplification over this selected UHF television frequency band, the same is not true of an amplitude modulated wave having carrier and sideband compo nents over the same 524 to 530 MHZ frequency band. When an amplitude modulated wave having equal amplitude sideband components is coupled to the above described amplifier, the output amplitude of these sideband frequencies begins to drop at sideband frequencies about 0.5 MHz above the carrier frequency (f with the typical output amplitude of these sideband frequencies down 1.5 db at +4.2 MHz above the carrier frequency (f See FIG. 2. The Federal Communication Commission (FCC) requirement for television performance requires that this gain be substantially uni form over the band out to +4.2 MHz above the carrier frequency (f In accordance with the present invention a sideband peaking circuit 55 is coupled between ground and emitter 17 via the inductance coil 19 and capacitor 21. This peaking circuit 55 operates at about the video or intelligence frequencies (about 0.5 MHz up to 4.2 MHz) to provide the flat sideband frequency response out beyond the 4.2 MHz above the carrier frequency as shown in FIG. 3. All UHF frequency signals are decoupled from this sideband peaking circuit due to feedthrough bypass capacitors 2] and 23. Those signals below about 25 MHz are applied to the peaking circuit 55. The peaking circuit 55 includes an inductance 56, a capacitance 57 and a resistance 59. The value of capacitor 57 for an inductance 56 provided by a 3% inch No. 20 wire and a resistance 59 of 3 ohms is between 1000 and 4000 pf. By increasing the capacitance, the peaking occurs at a lower frequency and by increasing the resistance valve the amplitude is flattened and a more broad band peaking occurs.
The desired response shown in FIG. 3 was achieved when operating over the 524 to 530 MHz band (channel 23) with the amplifier circuit 11 having the following values and dimensions:
Capacitors 36, 39, 41 and 51 0.8-10 pf. (picofarads) variable. Capacitor 49 l-20 pf. variable. At 524-530 MHz these capacitors were set at about 4 pf. for capacitor 36, 2 pf. for capacitor 39, 10 pf. for capacitor 41, 3 pf. for capacitor 51, and 7 pf. for capacitor 49.
Capacitor 21 1000 pf.
Capacitor 23 1500 pf.
Capacitor 2'7 600 microfarads, 3 volts Capacitor 57 1000 pf. 4000 pf. disc ceramic Capacitor 33 0.l mf. disc ceramic Capacitor 63 1500 pf.
Capacitor 64 100 microfarad, 50 volts inductance 37 formed by a strap of copper 200 mils long by 100 mils wide.
Inductance 38 formed by a strap of copper 250 mils wide and 350 mils long.
inductance 47 formed by a strap of copper 500 mils long and 200 mils wide plus one coiled turn of No; 18 wire of 300 mils internal diameter.
inductance l9 900 mils long No. 18 wire plus three coiled turns of 100 mils internal diameter.
Inductance 56 3%. inches of No. 20 wire from feedthrough capacitor 21 to ground.
Inductance 31 2.5 inch long of No. 18 wire straight.
Inductance 40 formed by a strap of copper 250 mils by 250 mils.
Resistor 59 2 to 7 ohms.
In the above arrangement the negative bias voltage (Vcc) was 0.75 volts and the positive bias voltage (Vcc+) was 27.25 volts. Under the above conditions the amplifier signal normal operating R.F. output power range would be from 0.024 watts to 5.0 watts with 0.0024 to 0.5 watt input power.
In a typical procedure for selecting the correct capacitor 57 value and resistor 59 value, an effective amplitude modulated wave having carrier frequency components and substantially uniform 20 percent modulation level sideband frequency components is provided at the amplifier input by a suitable signal source such as a signal generator amplitude modulated by video frequencies. The amplified amplitude modulated wave is detected by a sideband analyzer and the detected signal is displayed by an oscilloscope, with the detected car rier frequency (11-) displayed toward the left and the upper sideband frequency components displayed to the right of the detected carrier frequency (f With a power output level of about 0.6 watts, the resistor and capacitor values are selected with the values stated previously to achieve the desired upper sideband fidelity (flat) response.

Sure, fans "know" their favorite athletes: what their mansions look like, which starlets they date, what they say on Twitter. But these sort of athlete-fan interactions seem tested before focus groups, directed by teams of public-relations consultants rather than inspired by authenticity. That was not the case Wednesday night at the main event of UFC on FUEL TV 1, when local boy Jake Ellenberger came out from the bowels of the aging Omaha Civic Auditorium.

Even though American consumers throw away about 80 billion pounds of food a year, only about half of them are aware that food waste is a problem. Even more, researchers have identified that most people perceive benefits to throwing food away, some of which have only limited basis in fact. A study published today in PLOS ONE is just the second peer-reviewed large-scale consumer survey about food waste and is the first in the U.S. to identify patterns regarding how Americans form attitudes on food waste. The results provide the data required to develop targeted efforts to reduce the amount of food that U.S. consumers toss into the garbage each year, said study co-author Brian Roe, the McCormick Professor of Agricultural Marketing and Policy in the College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences at The Ohio State University.

Essendon has dropped 22-year veteran Dustin Fletcher for Saturday night's game against Port Adelaide, but left the door open for his late inclusion.
The defender was left out out of the side along with the injured Michael Hibberd (ankle), though coach Mark Thompson said on a club website video that Fletcher was "at this stage one of the emergencies."
