(approved March 13, 2006)
Chair Bley-Vroman called the meeting to order at 3 pm, with Kent, Ramsey, Rutter, Staff, and Tiles present. The SEC met with VC Ostrander from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. and met with VC Smatresk from 4:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Lampe was present later.
Standard Items: The review of minutes was postponed. Bley-Vroman reported on meetings with Chancellor Konan and President McClain. Topics of discussion with Konan included taro research and dorms. Bley-Vroman discussed the upcoming Senate elections, and described his communications to the BOR.
The SEC made agendas for the March Faculty Senate meeting and March Faculty Congress.
The SEC will review the charter of the A&S Faculty Senate to ascertain the proper routing of approvals for programs, degrees, certificates and institutes that originate with A&S.
The SEC worked on two resolutions: one about UARC and one about moving system offices off-campus. The former was fully supported, with one no/abstention; the latter was unanimous. Both are subject to further editing and cogitation.
Topics discussed with VC Ostrander: 40 summer undergraduate fellows; 2007 expressionist exhibit; JABSOM dean search; SOEST dean search; Engineering dean search; search for a director for Lyon Arboretum; possibly funding the operations of a new Kakaako research building via cigarette taxes; the Level 3 bio-containment facility might be in Kakaako (negotiations are active); UARC (it is out of his hands); ORS (3 contract reviewers will be two only by the weekend); issues at the Legislature; the federal cutbacks in NIH and NCI funding; the 50-per cent return to researchers of RTF that they generate.
Topics discussed with VC Smatresk: the budget process (that is with the chairs now); the current self-assessment phase of a brand-new round of WASC accreditation; statistics about the performance of programs and departments; that enrollment for the Fall 2006 is running 35% below last year (tuition increase and a new format for the SAT may be the causes); and a proposed Center for Public Policy Analysis. He asked for volunteers for the Manoa Outreach Council, a new council that will interact with K-12.

"Hushed and flawless Bach..."
The Observer
'Familiar works these may be, but truly exploratory, technically refined and strongly personal performances as here can help us hear them anew. A triumph for David Watkin and the Resonus label.'
'This feels like the set I've been waiting years for... his performances are alive with a rare joy, effortless spontaneity, technical precision and imaginative fluency. There couldn't be a better testament to a remarkable musician'
BBC Music Magazine - July Instrumental Choice
Theres lightness, richness and warmth and a deep humanity that shines out of both Bachs music and David Watkins absorbing traversal. Unplug the phones, switch off your mobile, let social media manage without you for 28 mins, its time for Bach
Andrew McGregor, BBC Radio 3, CD of the Week
"Using two historic instruments and playing on gut strings, David Watkin gives a definitive period instrument account of Bachs six solo Cello Suites. It should be in any Bach lovers collection. One can only marvel at Watkins range of colour, his elegance, his verve, variety and spontaneity above all his understanding of line and pulse. He has long been one of the top cellists around, as soloist, quartet player and principal cellist of the Scottish Chamber Orchestra.... He will devote his energies, in part, to conducting... we can expect this phenomenal musician to make a mark on the podium too."
Fiona Maddocks The Guardian 19th July 2015
"Watkin really "gets" Bach and these Suites. There is a combination of scholarship, insight, experience and personal involvement which shines throughout and really allows Bach to speak to us." Sid Nuncius, on Amazon

"He not only brings that dedicated scholarly view of
playing characterisitc of period instrument specialists, but he plays with such huge commitment.He is a great inspiration to me,
especially in Mozart."
Sir Charles Mackerras, BBC Music Magazine
"...admirable continuo and solo cellist and now also a conductor"
Sir John Eliot Gardiner, Music in the Castle of Heaven
"Watkin's tastes are catholic....
[he has] a passionate belief in the juxtaposition of scholarship and musicianship"

No one in America would deny that the weather has changed drastically in our lifetime. We read about El Niño and La Niña, but how many of us really understand the big picture beyond our own
Need a basic introduction to climate? Collier and Webb, both of the United States Geological Service, survey the subject with estimable economy and clarity. . . . Packed with illustrations and balanced between general and specific information, Collier and Webb's work superbly outlines and makes accessible a subject that is complex even for experts in the field.
While some books on climatology sensationalize the destructive aspects of weather, this book presents a balanced and scientific explanation. . . . A fine survey of climatology.
Library Journal
They make the mechanics of global weather and patterns of climate change easy to understand.
Science News
Well-written and well explained . . . I recommend this book for anyone looking for a good overview of global climate and weather patterns.
The Weather Doctor
Basic information on important topics in climate change researchsuch as El Niño, the Pacific Decadal Oscillationa well as a relatively unbiased discussion of greenhouse gases. The authors intersperse their summaries of scientific research with personal recollections of associated weather events (for example, the Canadian drought of the 1920s and 1930s and the floods of the 1998 El Niño) and relate the material in a very nonintimidating fashion.
Intended for a general readership, this book could be used as a beginning textbook in a course on climatology. It is a well-written book by authors who have a good knowledge of weather and what it does to the earth. . . . Anyone who is interested in learning about weather patterns and how they affect his or her world can benefit by reading this book.
Electronic Green Journal
A well-written introduction to the impacts of global climate on hydrologic hazards . . . This volume would make an excellent companion to a scientific textbook that is used in an introductory climate change or environmental studies course.
Professional Geographer
front windows or even the headlines on the Weather Channel? Hydrologists and climatologists have long been aware of the role of regional climate in predicting floods and understanding droughts. But with our growing sense of a variable climate, it is important to reassess these natural disasters not as isolated events but as related phenomena. This book shows that floods and droughts don't happen by accident but are the products of patterns of wind, temperature, and precipitation that produce meteorologic extremes. It introduces the mechanics of global weather, puts these processes into the longer-term framework of climate, and then explores the evolution of climatic patterns through time to show that floods and droughts, once considered isolated "acts of God," are often related events driven by the same forces that shape the entire atmosphere. Michael Collier and Robert Webb offer a fresh, insightful look at what we know about floods, droughts, and climate variabilityand their impact on peoplein an easy-to-read text, with dramatic photos, that assumes no previous understanding of climate processes. They emphasize natural, long-term mechanisms of climate change, explaining how floods and droughts relate to climate variability over years and decades. They also show the human side of some of the most destructive weather disasters in history. As Collier and Webb ably demonstrate, "climate" may not be the smooth continuum of meteorologic possibilities we supposed but rather the sum of multiple processes operating both regionally and globally on different time scales. Amid the highly politicized discussion of our changing environment, Floods, Droughts, and Climate Change offers a straightforward scientific account of weather crises that can help students and general readers better understand the causes of climate variability and the consequences for their lives.

The Alternative Medicine Sourcebook: A Realistic Evaluation of Alternative Healing Methods
One-third of all Americans currently use some form of alterntive treatment, whether to enhance their sense of well-being or to complement conventional medical treatments. Whatever the reason, alternative medicine has had a profound influence on the way people approach their health care. Dr. Steven Bratman examines the various branches of alternative medicine, including homepathy, movement therapies, bodywork, naturopathy, and Chinese medicine. He provides information on how to properly use these approaches, how to find qualified practitioners, and how alterntive therapies can complement medical treatment. The world of alterntive medicine is diverse and sometimes self-contradicting, so "The Alternative Medicine Sourcebook" takes a balanced look at each method, exploring its strengths and weaknesses, and distinguishing between what is useful and what is not so that you can make an informed decision about your health.

Even as the Obama campaign team pivots its focus to presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney's record as governor of Massachusetts, the president's re-election advisers insist they aren't letting up on their criticism of Romney's tenure as the head of private-equity firm Bain Capital.
The Obama campaign ran about $100,000 in ads in May that focused on Romney's ties to Bain, a small sliver of the $25 million the president's campaign spent on advertising expenditures for the month. But Team Obama spent much of the last few weeks in interviews and on social media slamming Romney's work at Bain — a tone that had made some of the president's Democratic allies uncomfortable.
"The issue remains: Did his experience at Bain qualify him as a job creator," said campaign strategist David Axelrod in a call with reporters. "He made that case 10 years ago (when he was running for governor) in Massachusetts and the record there was very, very underwhelming."
Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt contends there is evidence that the discussion of Romney's time at Bain is resonating with voters. A recent Wall Street Journal/NBC poll showed that registered voters by a 2-to-1 margin viewed Bain negatively. Meanwhile, high-profile Democrats, including Newark Mayor Cory Booker and former president Bill Clinton, have sent mixed messages about Bain and Romney's experience in private equity.
But LaBolt says there's "a very different conversation in battleground states than there is among elites in the Northeast corridor."

"The only credential that he's offering is his experience at Bain Capital and I think that was an important conversation to have," Axelrod said.
For now, the Obama campaign is turning its focus to Romney's record in Massachusetts.
As noted by USA TODAY's Catalina Camia, the Obama campaign today launched a $10 million advertising blitz in battleground states that rips into Romney for having "one of the worst economic records in the country" during his time as governor. The new ad highlights that Massachusetts lost 40,000 manufacturing jobs, a rate twice the national average, and fell to 47 among states in job creation, during Romney's tenure.
"We are happy to compare Governor Romney's record of positive job creation and a 4.7% unemployment rate in Massachusetts to President Obama's record of declining job growth and 40 straight months of unemployment above 8%," says Romney press secretary Andrea Saul.

Las Vegas • Ryan Moore matched the course record and his career best with a 10-under 61 on Thursday in the first round of the Justin Timberlake Shriners Hospitals for Children Open.
The former UNLV player had nine birdies, an eagle on the 341-yard, par-4 15th and a bogey in perfect conditions at TPC Summerlin to take a one-stroke lead in the Fall Series opener.
"Just one of those nice days," Moore said. "Got off to a great start. Kind of 7 under on the front nine and just kind of cruised the next nine. Made bogey there on my 17th hole, No. 8, which I wasn't too happy about. It was great to bounce back with a birdie on the ninth hole.
"No wind and perfect temperature, greens are reasonably soft and rolling nice on top of that. So it's one of those days that you just keep putting it in play. You know you're going to have a bunch of pitching wedges, 9-irons, 8-irons into these greens, and a few shorter irons, too."
Brendon de Jonge had a 62, and Tim Herron and John Huh shot 63. Justin Leonard, Chris Kirk and Jonas Blixt were three strokes back at 64. Kirk eagled the 15th and par-5 16th. Moore also shot a 61 this season in the Humana Challenge on PGA West's Nicklaus Course.

What a great treat! I'm intrigued by the oat flour!!!

And why is that? LOL It is one of the lower-carb, healthy grains and in moderation it is fine for folks doing moderate low-carbing and who are on the grains rung of the Atkins diet.
Nice to "see" you, Tiffany!

Okay, just looking at those makes me wild with hunger. YUM!

Was wondering if /how these could be heated in the oven ( temp and time) we got rid of our microwave a while back due to the health concerns. I would love to make this for my children as a 'fast' snack!

I guess I would try heating them quickly in a 350 deg. F. oven - you'd have to check on them, but if you find that it is too hot, then I'd say a 300 deg. F. oven. Trial and error - just keep an eye on them and you'll figure it out. Should be fine. If you have toaster oven - that would work too.

Severstal is one the world's top vertically integrated steel producers[1]. In 2010 the company produced close to 17 million metric tonnes of steel, placing it amongst the top ten steelmakers in the world.
The company is run by Alexey Mordashov, a Russian steel industry oligarch who is also a main shareholder.
Consolidated Severstal Group revenue in 2010 was $13.5 billion. EBITDA for this period was $3.3 billion[2].
The Severstal Group operates in three main segments. These are:
Some of the trends impacting the Company include:
Within its core business of steelmaking, it should be noted that Severstal has a major competitive advantage from being almost fully self-sufficient in supply of key steelmaking raw materials that include iron ore and coking coal. This strong vertical integration gives Severstal a marked cost advantage in the production of steel. As a result, Severstal is ranked as being amongst the lowest cost producers of hot rolled steel coil, ranking in terms of cost performance with steelmakers in the top decile on the world cost curve for hot rolled coil.
Important competitors include EvrazHolding in Russia, the Novolipetsk Metallurgical Kombinat (NLMK) in Russia, the Magnitogorsk Iron and Steel Works in Russia and ArcelorMittal's Termitau production plant in Kazakhstan.

This giveaway is closed. The winner is commenter #60, Natalie, who said:
Definitely would do some shirts for my daughter and probably some home accessories for my sister since her house is full of bling!
This is a long post, but stick with me and read to the end. We've got a special deal on a Silhouette machine for you, as well as a chance to enter a giveaway for a Silhouette and rhinestone bundle. Read to the bottom for the exciting specials and giveaway!!
Several months ago I had the opportunity to review the Silhouette SD machine. You can read my review of the machine itself here. I also wrote up a couple of tutorials – one for using the iron-on vinyl to make a Happy Note fabric napkin and one for using freezer paper stencil to make faces for softies.
If you thought that's all the Silhouette can do with sewing , you're wrong.
Another really exciting feature of this machine is the ability to cut templates for setting heat-fix rhinestones. These little sparkly gems are sooo awesome to add a bit of zazz to a sewing project, or even just a plain store-bought tee.
The Review
I had a chance to use the rhinestone template starter kit this week. I used it to make a handful of t-shirts for my daughter. I had planned to make just one, but I just… couldn't… stop.
My first go was with a simple peace sign design. It was really a test run, and I made it on a scrap of knit fabric. It turned out so cute that I made a whole shirt to put it on. Little girl loved it!
Then, I raided her drawers and found a pair of plain tees. The black tee got a hot pink rhinestone kitty. This was so quick and easy!! My daughter's friend came over and saw it. She immediately asked me to make one for her, too. Because I've already got the template cut and ready to use, I could be the Awesome Mom and say, "Sure! What size t-shirt do you wear?"
And then I realized that I could combine applique with the rhinestones. Be still my heart!
For the white tee, I used a raincloud template to make a sparkly cloud on a piece of old denim. I put fusible on the back and appliqued it down the shirt, along with some fabric that just happened to be printed with sparkly raindrops. A smattering of hearts finishes it off. I know it's obnoxious to brag on your own stuff – but isn't it the cutest???
Though it looks difficult to create the rhinestone designs, the Silhouette makes it really easy to do. I'm going to skip giving a step-by-step for creating the template and setting the rhinestones, since the instructions they provide are so good. Get their PDF instruction sheet to see how it's done. You can also view a video demo.
As I played with the Silhouette rhinestones, I jotted down my observations. I could ooze on and on, but I'll give you the condensed version:
Economical and good selection. I've seen rhinestone iron-ons at the hobby store before, but never bought them because 1) they're pretty pricey and 2) the selection is slim. But making them yourself turns out to be pretty economical. Once you have the Silhouette machine, all you need to create your own iron-on rhinestone designs is the rhinestone starter kit. As for selection, there are tons of designs available for purchase in their online library.
The $30 starter kit has everything you need to start with your own rhinestone designs: sheets of rhinestone template material, 2 backing boards and 2 sheets of transfer tape, positioning brush, acrylic work tray, 10ss clear rhinestones, and bonus CD of exclusive rhinesone template designs (alphabet and shapes). You can purchase additional template designs from the Silhouette online library for just .99 each.
Templates are not resizable. Unlike the other designs in the Silhouette online store, the rhinestone templates are not resizable. The reason is simple; the templates are made up of tiny circles sized just right to hold the rhinestones and arranged to make a shape. If you resize the template, the circles will no longer be the right size. This isn't really a biggie; just something to keep in mind. Most of the designs in their online library state the dimensions so you can know if the size will work for your project before you download it.
Different sizes of rhinestones. The most inexpensive rhinestones are the 10ss clear. The other colors and larger sizes are more expensive. Luckily, the bulk of the designs make use of the 10ss size, but you'll find that you need some of the larger sizes to complete many designs. Larger designs are usually made up primarily of the smaller, least expensive size and use the larger ones as accents.
Keeping up with all of those little rhinestones. Though you can't see it in the packaging, the rhinestones all come in resealable bags. Yay!!! That makes keeping up with them loads easier! When setting the design, I raided my stamping supplies and pulled out my embossing powder tray. The shallow tray has a pour spout at one end. The sides of the tray kept the rhinestones from rolling all over my table, and when I was done I could easily pour them bag into the baggie. (The tray doesn't come with the rhinestone starter kit, but you can usually purchase them inexpensively from hobby stores.)
How long will my materials last? In order to create a rhinestone iron-on, you need four things: rhinestones, template vinyl, transfer tape, and backing board. You will eventually use them up and need to replace them. The transfer tape and the rhinestones get used up more quickly than the template vinyl and the backing board. Once created, the template (made from the cut template vinyl placed on the backing board) can be used as many times as you like – though each time you'll use up some of your rhinestones and transfer tape (you'll need a piece large enough to cover your design). I was able to create 5 templates from one sheet of vinyl, and I placed all of them on one double-sided backing board. For refills, you can purchase sets of template vinyl, transfer tape, and backing board together; or, you can also purchase just the transfer tape.
Cut multiple templates at one time. I'm stingy by nature, so I very quickly realized that if I'm planning on cutting several small templates that it makes more sense to cut them all the same time. That way I can position them to make the most efficient use of the template material. One word of caution: Those little cut circles are really hard to see before you pull the template vinyl off of the paper backing. If you want to separate the templates, wait until after you pull them off of the paper backing before cutting them apart. That way you won't accidentally cut down the middle of a design with your scissors.
You will become hooked. It took all of one shiny, sparkly design on a t-shirt to get me hooked. There is now not a plain t-shirt in my house that is safe from getting rhinestone'd with my Silhouette. And don't limit yourself to t-shirts. These would make such fun embellishments for a purse, for hair accessories (the smaller designs), scrapbook pages, or home dec framed art.

Nathaniel Huntington Papers
Dates: 1791-1824
Accession Number: 861107B
Donor: Vigo County Historical Society
Description: Three file folders in a document case
Content and Scope of the Collection
This collection came from the Vigo County Historical Society along with an itemized list and brief account of its origin. Apparently a member of the Society researched and organized the material and determined that it originated from Nathaniel Huntington. On this basis, the name of the collection and the order of the documents will remain intact. (The Historical Society's account is included in the inventory folder.)
These materials represent very early examples of Indiana records and manuscripts (land grants, wills, legal briefs), but there does not appear to be a relationship among the documents.

Tucson is where Eric Berger says he grew up, where he became a man.
He's not a Tucson native, but he did go to the UA and play for Andy Lopez.
Since Berger, a pitcher for the Triple-A Oklahoma City Redhawks, last played at the UA in 2007, he's added a handlebar mustache and nearly six years of minor league baseball.
But, recently, something keeps happening that his him feeling nostalgic, specifically about his freshman season with the Wildcats: outfielder Trevor Crowe, another former Wildcat and a teammate with the Redhawks.
Crowe is on a tear recently - he's batting .462 in his last 10 games. Similar to the way most of his junior season played out when he was the named the 2005 Pac-10 co-Player of the Year and an All-American for the Wildcats. Berger was a UA freshman back then.
"It brings back memories," Berger said before Monday's game against the Tucson Padres at Kino Stadium. "I remember my freshman year, we pretty much scored in the first inning every time because he got on base, walked, stole a couple bags and we had the lead in the first inning. I know what he's capable of, and he's just putting it together."
Added relief pitcher Jason Stoffel, another former Wildcat: "It's amazing. He's not missing the ball, if it's in the zone, he's smacking it pretty good. He's an exciting player to watch."
The trio of former Wildcats are all having solid seasons for the Redhawks, who currently sit in first place in the Pacific Coast League American Southern division.
"It's comforting to have other Wildcats around," Crowe said, "because we get to tell Andy Lopez stories and talk about the crazy things we went through playing college baseball and just have that perspective of where we came from and where we are now."
So, on that note, here's a look at where Crowe, Berger and Stoffel came from, and where they are now.
Trevor Crowe
Position: Outfielder
Age: 29
Then, at the UA: (2003-05) .361 average, 16 home runs, 122 RBIs, 170 runs and 66 stolen bases in 171 games.
Now, in 2013: For the Houston Astros: .200 average, 1 home run, 5 RBIs in 34 games. For the Redhawks: .331 average, 2 home runs, 17 RBIs, 32 runs, 14 steals in 43 games.
He said it: "I'm just coming back from an injury now, but I feel healthy and I've been swinging the bat really well. I feel comfortable. In this game, you can't take any days off, you gotta keep working every single day, and I'm starting to show some better results." - Crowe
Eric Berger
Position: Pitcher
Age: 27
Then, at the UA: (2005-08) 17-10 record, 4.17 ERA, 49 games, 23 games started, 178 strikeouts in 175 innings pitched.
Now, in 2013: 4-3 record, 3.88 ERA, 37 games, 2 games started, 1 save and 41 strikeouts in 53 1/3 innings.
He said it: "It's gone well this year. I've struggled in Triple-A in the past, so this is a new league but I've been more consistent. I've tried to eliminate the 'big inning' which hurts a reliever's ERA and all that, so I'm just trying to get better." - Berger
Jason Stoffel
Position: Pitcher
Age: 24
Then, at the UA: (2007-09) 11-3 record, 3.29 ERA, 99 games, 1 game started, 29 saves and 189 strikeouts in 145 innings.
Now, in 2013: 6-1 record, 3.14 ERA, 36 games, 41 strikeouts in 51 2/3 innings.
He said it: "It's been going all right. Had a rough outing last week - gave up five runs - but other than that it's been going pretty smoothly. I gotta keep working and hopefully get a chance at the majors." - Stoffel

OK thanks! If I stream netflix with my Blu-Ray player would it audio/video work via HDMI?
You guys rock! Streaming netflix via my Blu-Ray works perfect. Now I m just ready to get my system beefed up abit more but with a baby on the way in about 20 days my wife says Home theater is on the back burner hahah. I have other questions regarding Blu-Ray is it ok to just ask on this post? While I have your attention?
BLU-RAY settings.
24p was selected as off. Should this be on?
Should I adjust any down mixing settings?
Same with DTS NEO6
And should I select PCM
I have them all at factory settings now.

BLU-RAY settings.
24p was selected as off. Should this be on?
Should I adjust any down mixing settings?
Same with DTS NEO6
And should I select PCM
I have them all at factory settings now.
I have that soundbar, so I can answer your questions:
1. Set 24p to "ON".
2. No need to adjust downmix...the soundbar handles bitstreamed multi-channel audio just fine.
3. DTS Neo6 sounds better, IMHO, with large speakers so leave that off.
4. See item 2 above. No need to use PCM.
There are two types of people in this world: People you want to drink with, and people who make you want to drink.
Downmix handles the reduction of multichannel content to stereo by the player, so it doesn't matter in your setup.
DTS Neo:6 handles expansion of stereo content to multichannel, which also doesn't apply in your case.
I would not use PCM with your sound bar. But the correct setting there depends on the particular player you have.
24p depends on your TV.
Set up is as follows
Blu-Ray is Panasonic DMP-BD89
Sound bar is Sony HT-CT370
Tv Panasonic TC-P60ST60
You guys are killing it!
My audio for Blu-Ray are like this now
dialog enhancer - off
dynamic range compression - off
downmix - stereo
dts neo6 - off
dolby d/dolby d +/dolby true hd - bitstream
dts/dts-hd - bitstream
bd video secondary audio - off
Also fooling with my sound bar
I selected AAV on and the sound improves ten-fold! I assume I should leave this on?
I feel like I should be paying you.
All of those other settings operate on PCM. But, when set to bitstream, the player simply sends the encoded track to the soundbar, which does the decoding to produce PCM and any subsequent processing such downmixing and dialog enhancements.
What is the AAV setting that I turned on? Is this just a way to get a sound boost?
To my knowlege there are no brands of panels that will pass 5.1 thru the optical output on the panel with a device hooked to the panel via HDMI and that goes for all TV's, even the ones made in the last 2 years.
My new 70" and 80" Sharps wouldnt pass 5.1
May I ask how you "confirmed" that the brands you mentioned will pass 5.1 thru the optical ?
My Sharp lc70le757u will pass DD 5.1. I confirmed this through my new sonos system. On the controller you can see what signal the Playbar is receiving. That being said, It will pass DD 5.1 as long as the original device signal is DD 5.1.
Do you actually hear discrete 5.1 thru all of the speakers?
I do not currently have the surrounds up and running ( or own them yet) as I just bought my Playbar and sub this past Sunday. I too had concerns about the TV passing the signal down to the Playbar so I didn't want to invest in them if there was only going to be a mediocre gain without DD 5.1.
I can sincerely state that there is a noticeable difference in the DD5.1 over the Stereo/pcm sound coming from the soundbar. It does have a distinguished sound field and replicates the sound quite well. This will only be enhanced by the addition of the surrounds.
I don't understand how anyone can not hear a discernible difference.
I own the Vizio M602i-B3.
New here and apologies for not going through the entire thread.
I just bought the LG 55LA7400 and needed to confirm:
1. HDMI ARC on this TV is Stereo pass through only ?
2. Optical out is DD 5.1 ? (but not DTS 5.1)
I need this info to weigh in my soundbar purchase.
Most likely looking at building a Core i3 HTPC capable of outputting DTS HD-MA/ Dolby TrueHD via HDMI. (or even using my Asus EPE 121 Table @ Core i5 427um)
What would be my connection options ? HTPC direct to soundbar and HDMI out to TV or HTPC to TV and out via ARC to Soundbar.
Would anything over a 2.1 soundbar be wasted ? Looking at the LG NB4540 (choices are limited here in SEA/Malaysia). The LG is approx USD400 here. Was looking at the Philips HTL 5120 previously but it's no longer selling. The more expensive HTL 9100 is though @ USD900 or so.
Would a more expensive Sony ST3 soundbar (which supports DTS MA and true HD) be overkill ? it is 4.1 anyway. The ST3 is approx USD600.
Not looking for a proper/full fledged 7.1 (or even 5.1) setup. I like the soundbar approach and can live with the cons.
Many thanks!
I don't have any experience with soundbars but they are limited in what they can do in comparison to a standalone receiver, which would be your best choice. There are some high end soundbars (expensive) that are more capable but you'd probably have to check out the soundbar specific forums for what they can, and can not do.
On my TW 8300 I set it to HDMI audio and 5.1 pass-through went from my Vizio to my receiver with no issues.
My Onkyo receiver is showing a DD source light, but I have no idea if the channels are source or some sort of matrixed output.
What current 4k TVs work?
TV: Sony KD55XD9305, AV Receiver: Denon AVR-X3300w, Speakers/Sub: Tannoy Mercury V4i / v1i (Rear) + Tannoy Mercury VCi (Center), SVS PB-1000 (Sub), 4K Blu-ray: Sony UBP-X800
First, here's my setup:
Pace RNG200N cable box
Vizio P702ui-b3, Firmware 22.214.171.124 (I've read reports of a 188.8.131.52, but don't have it yet)
Sony STR-DE935 receiver (an older DTS/DD 5.1 receiver, no HDMI)
Cabling is as follows, and fairly simple:
Cable Box --> TV via HDMI
TV --> Receiver via Toslink Optical
The problem:
With this setup, if I set the TV's Audio Output setting to "PCM", I get 48kHz PCM audio just fine. However, when set to "Bitstream" (which I assume is passthrough mode), I get NO audio at the receiver AT ALL. When "Bitstream" is enabled the receiver does detect that a multichannel stream is being provided, but there's no sound.
Note that I don't believe this to be a cable box issue, for two reasons:
- When I run a VIA app like Amazon or Netflix, I see the same problem as above.
- When I bypass the TV and connect the Toslink output from the cable box directly to the receiver, I get multichannel audio just fine.
Unlike many others reporting here, I'm not just getting random or spurious audio dropouts; when set to Multichannel, I get no audio at all, despite the receiver believing it's receiving a Dolby Digital stream. Although I could just use the output from the cable box, that doesn't help when I want to watch something using the built-in VIA apps.
Is anyone else seeing the same thing, and is there a fix/workaround? Thanks very much in advance for any help you all might be able to provide!
One thing that occurred to me is that maybe an HDMI Detective or Dr HDMI might solve this problem. They are devices which impersonate the EDID of an upstream device in order to solve handshake problems. I have a Dr HDMI connected between my downstairs AVR and LG TV because those could never handshake properly and I always got a blank display. The Dr HDMI has a number of presets including one that advertises every single audio and video format. Maybe it could be used to fool a device into thinking a TV supports pass through of all the audio formats.
Anyone tried this?
My Onkyo receiver is showing a DD source light, but I have no idea if the channels are source or some sort of matrixed output.
TV remote works great, it's a tiny bit faster than the 3500 HDMI roku stick.
and oh my god, I played a 5.1 file through plex and the receiver swiitched to 5.1 from the TV optical. I got immediately all giddy because my receiver only has 3 inputs and this means I can just use the TVs hdmi input.
I plugged the old roku back into that same port and double and tripled checked the audio settings, tried to play the same file and no dice on the 5.1 passthrough.
These are more or less the same roku sticks, one is a 3500 and one is a 3420 (same as 3400 just black and meant for the Canadian market)
Can this be that Canadain items to not have to or choose not to abide by HDCP? And thus 5.1 is not deactivated as a passthrough measure?
I always assumed the deactivation of 5.1 passthrough in the US market or a TVs optical port was due to the TVs own firmware and settings.
Either way Im very happy, the TVs remote works fine on the Roku, all but the * button which never actually gets used anyway.
And I have an old smart phone which has the roku app and controls the TV and receiver anyway. Plus the TV powers the Roku and I do not have to use the TV's USB port for power.

Joe is right, it is retarded...er stupid to have a Superbowl in New Jersey
They're pro football players and as such half of their job is dealing with the media all throughout their careers. It's business as usual for them.
Now to get to the part about you being a naive person... The only statement you made regarding Ray Lewis that is 100% accurate, is that he is "a great football player". I'm glad the team looked great. That's great news! Ray Lewis has had a very controversial past as we all know. I'm a huge Ravens fan and I'm a huge fan of Ray Lewis; on the field. I've also learned from many years of experience to stop there with my expectations of celebrities. To call Ray Lewis "a great human being" is a bit overstated. He is a human. Humans are complicated. Humans make mistakes, do things that are wrong... Those same humans can also do great things and help out communities and underprivileged kids. Those same humans can motivate and at the same time be downright obnoxious. Those humans can also be manipulative and contrived.
You guys want an crazy/interesting controversial "Ray Lewis" story straight from me (one of about 10 people that were there) last year... ask me after the Super Bowl. I will lay it out, second by second is it all happened. I swore I would never post this online as to not violate his privacy and/or in case it somehow it could lead to a bigger story. I will leave it at that.
another fail thread by the deadskin... sorry had to say it
Sunday evening, come 10:30, it will all be fine. Trust me.
Retard what?
Deer antler what?
We'll be way too busy soaking it in to even think about those things.

The reality star, whose boobs were exposed in a picture's background, said that she could not get mad at her husband because it was pure accident.
Tori Spelling finally opens her mouth about the scandal that happened to her family a while ago. The internet went abuzz when her husband Dean McDermott accidentally posted a picture of her naked boobs on Twitter. He actually intended to snap a picture of their son only.
"It was a complete accident obviously. I took a picture [of Liam] and I sent it and I did not see [that] in the background," McDermott said in an interview with CNN. He added that Spelling was initially "shocked" and "devastated," but later thought, "What can you do?"
The mother of three chimed in, "I am a mom, I was nursing my baby. [Dean] was so devastated about it that I couldn't be mad. I mean it was genuinely an accident." She added, "If you are ever going to have someone tweet a picture of your boobs, I would rather it happen now than any other time because when you are nursing, your boobs look better than ever, bold [and] beautiful."

X marks the spot
Remember the old story about the consultant brought in to solve a problem that's been bugging a company for years?
After a couple of minutes looking the machinery up and down (or whatever it happens to be in this tale) he takes a piece of chalk out of his pocket and marks the trouble spot with an X. Sure enough that's where the problem turns out to be.
"That's fantastic – how much do we owe you!" they cry.
"£10,000" he replies.
"That's a lot for making a chalk mark!" they say.
"Making the chalk mark was £10. Knowing where to place it took me 30 years and that costs £9,990."
People that have been in a business a while have learned their skills through constant work and being adaptable. They can see routes more quickly, they edit on the spot.
Sometimes that gets overlooked, but at Gravitas you'll always hire consultants who can think for themselves fast – and often faster than you'd expect!

Meadow Comeback Earns Medalist
It was the ninth career medalist honor for the senior Meadow, who now has three times more wins than any player in school history. She played the final two rounds in 8-under par and the final 51 holes of the 54-hole event in 9-under.
"The most encouraging thing I saw from Stephanie (Meadow) this weekend was after she made double bogey on two of her first three holes, she still came back and shot five under for the tournament – that is pretty impressive," Alabama Coach Mic Potter said. "She understands that she has to stay committed no matter what. She stays with the process all the way through and good things happen when you do that."
Alabama finished tied for sixth as a team at 29-over-par 893 after a 7-over 295 in the final round, which matched the lowest round of the day. Arkansas earned the team title at 3-over 867 with GRU Augusta (+17, 881) in second, followed by Northwestern (+22, 886), Auburn (+27, 891) and Georgia (+28, 892).
"I thought Cammie Gray was definitely a bright spot the first two days," Potter said. "Going in as the fifth player you would love to get 72-74 out of her, so she is improving. We just have to be more consistent and get more counting scores to go along with Stephanie and Cammie."
Gray, a redshirt freshman from Northport, finished as the Tide's No. 2 scorer in the 54-hole event, tying for 30th at 10-over 226. Her final round 80 did not count toward the team score Tuesday, but her 2-over total of 146 was a big boost for Alabama in the opening two rounds.
Janie Jackson rebounded in the final round with a 3-over 75 and finished tied for 63rd. Daniela Lendl and Emma Talley both carded 76s on Tuesday, leaving Lendl tied for 46th at 14-over 230 and Talley tied for 50th at 15-over 231.
The Crimson Tide return to the course this weekend for the Allstate Sugar Bowl Intercollegiate at English Turn Country Club in New Orleans.

There isn't anywhere near enough scrutiny or criticism of Creative Commons on the Internet and that's because it's been a kind of fad and fetish of the sectarian left that is only now getting more widespread. More criticism will be coming, that's for sure, I'm just the spring robin on this one. The right, let along the center, hasn't really grappled with it as a system, or done any hard analysis of what people actually get out of it (and the CC non-profit that jealously guards what they know about this don't tell you, except to advance their own sect).
Most critiques of CC such as there are come from the left, even the very hard Stallmanite left -- Stallmanite is a big critic of CC as too bourgeous and liberal ROFL.
Here's a good critique not only of Creative Commons but iCommons, it's Comintern arm, of which I've been critical of as well:
This author goes farther than I do in his indictment of CC as trying to create a public commons run by a cultic elite (and he's probably right):
"Creative Commons seems to be attempting to create a shared public resource through a clever bit of tweaking of copyright, without the messy and difficult problems of educating citizens to the important of a public domain (or "common" good).
It rather looks like a technocratic method of bypassing any of the needs of a "demos" (as a political community or people) that might through debate create such a structure, to the point of a de facto institutionalisation of a cultural sphere by a cultural illuminati (here represented by CC)."
Like almost all critiques haling from the far left -- all kinds of freeware types hate CC because it doesn't go far enough -- this critic starts by rightly questioning this caper by these CC elites trying to refashion a global civil space that they run. But then he ends by saying that's illegitimate because they really serve the interests of Anglo-American capital with its neo-liberal agenda blah blah blah.
In fact, what's wrong with the takeover attempt is just that: it's wrongful takeover, full of technocratic hubris. And that takeover has a curious amalgam of right and left in it, of course, for which Lessig is famous, and which enables him to beat off both kinds of critics and ensure he stays in power and in influence.
I think it's self-evident that people are browbeaten through a subtle and not-at-all-subtle peer pressure created with the entire CC shtick. It's pretty obvious how people are being enlisted into this shill, sometimes not even in touch consciously with their uneasiness about it. They are amateurs, they are new creators, and the CC paternalism promises them that if they just join the communist collective, if they just give away, and give away some more, and keep giving, something "magical" will happen and they will...not only partake of an ecstatic hippie communalism, they will get a contract for a customized thingie, or perhaps sell a jingle to a company for an ad or...something. (Better pick your confusing array of CC licenses with care, kiddies, and write on it any caveats you need like opendemocracy.net does!)
I don't at all hope to persuade those ideologues who keep shrilly defending CC's shill, who believe that the obvious browbeating needs to be "proven". That's because I know that I'm reaching those who are ambivalent. I'm making those who are uneasy and not in touch with WHY they are uneasy probe deeper and ask themselves: what the hell do I get out of this?!
I'm still waiting for Spin Martin to do that, for example, to tell me just how all his CC sharing really has put peas in his pot financially. Go on, Spin.
Nobody can ever produce any real numbers of real content creation really making money -- and that's because the entire shill is designed to try to decouple commerce and creation, to withdraw it to some pure, Marxian utopia where there is no commerce, and there is only "sharing".
Those still involved in the grubby racket of "charging" for their art just haven't gotten the message yet, so the theory goes.
I marvel at what a pretzel some leftist and liberal type of sites get into as they struggle to support what they feel emotionally is something "progressive" but shrug off the CC straitjacket that in fact needlessly cripples their legitimate commerce -- even commerce for the sake of supporting a non-profit venture!
Such is the explanation that opendemocracy.net gives about their re-publication policy:
Here, work is put under the CC license, but only for non-profits or individuals who want to use it *once*. If they want to use it more than once, i.e. as a weekly column on a website, they have to pay, so this CC add-on tells you, not in a CC "license" itself. So this is a funny mixture of the CC license, which isn't adequate to express this concept of "even if you are non-profit and non-commercial, you need to pay if you do this regularly" and the site owners putting up additional instructions - because CC just does NOT let them have commerce, even to pay their costs!
They then also advance the idea of commercial entities, too, buying stuff. The owners of the site seem to be ambivalent and even in some essays critical of CC because they want their own site to do more than just exist off a tip jar or a grant -- they want content itself to be recognized as a valuable commodity that deserves payment to keep the expenses covered (they provide honoraria to authors).
I think in this case they'd be better off dropping the CC crap completely and merely staying their policy and putting up a "pay me here" button.
BTW, my own work which appears constantly on various websites is under CC licenses (not through any agreement of mine, that's just how management does it) and through liberal normal copyright policies as well. And I have to say, in this day and age on the Internet, the idea that it's "hard" to find out what intention and copyright policy is all about is a total, total scam.
Because a site can have a CC license with a line of explanation just as easily as it can dispense with silly CC and just put a line or a link to a normal copyright notice in which a site can just explain that you are welcome to take and copy the content as long as you credit the source and put that it is copyrighted material. It's the Internet, and putting up an easy-to-find notice like that is a piece of cake.
Once again, if anyone wishes to play Intenet lawywer, they need to cite cases *about Creative Commons doing what they claim it can or should* not about copyright in general, and not Creative Commons in general recognized as some kind of "authorization".
The reason they are not readily citing them, despite being called on this now several times, is because they likely don't exist. That's because a) people defend copyright and their instructions without recourse to mentioning, using, invoking, validing Creative Commons (and that's a good thing, that's the law); b) when people have to invoke CC, it isn't really about CC at all.
BTW, if you want to read a snarky, contorted, basically wildass justification of their insanity in a case that shows all too well how people are harmed by CC, read this.
Then read alternative and critical accounts of this issue:
Here's the model train story which is seen as a victory for CC and opensource licenses (this is a case about *principles* the movements have in common even if it's a case that relates more to software than the IP CC covers.)
Once again:
CC isn't based on copyright law; in fact, it seeks to undermine and displace it with classic Bolshevik displacement tactics, i.e. make a communist centrally-controlled thing that displaces the organic, independent thing by looking similar to it, something for which the Bolsheviks were notorious.
CC is an overlay on to copyright law. BTW, the rare times the cases come to court, the CC founders like Lessig are all over it like white on rice and add their considerable resources of press attention, etc. to it to "help it along". They were naturarlly part of the forces trying to get the family of the teenager to back off naming them in the lawsuit about Virgin Mobile's commercial use of a Flickr photo.
CC licenses are indeed an alternative to copyright law that the CC founders and followers loathe as incompatible with their ideological notion of how property should be shared, and how private property is destructive of creativity.
We live in a state of Internet culture where the old social injunction of not stealing, not copying, not swiping music downloads, not plagiarizing, is completely eroded. It's eroded by the Internet founders deliberately and consciously. It is that way because they made it so. They revel in making it so. CC is part of that erosion and indeed destruction. It destroys property and injunctions against theft, that inserts over that destruction something that feigns to "care" about ownership/credit but doesn't link it to commerce.
Decoupling property, especially intellectual authorship and creativity from commerce, is the great evil of CC and Web 2.0 in general.
In the atmosphere of brow-beating that people find themselves in, the peer pressure that they don't even really acknowledge consciously at times, they are made to feel two things simultaneously: that if they do not put a CC license to share, they are being selfish, and that if they fail to put a CC license mandating credit, they may not get it and leave themselves vulnerable to the general riotous theft on the Internet.
So indeed they are being offered a "shield" which both "protects them from theft" but helps validate the theft by forcing "sharing". It's truly an ingenious gimmick, and a truly destructive one, as its sole purpose is to decouple property and commerce and undermine social injunctions by technocratic automatic culture manufacturing.
Whatever rights are granted by copyright, and inherent in copyright, and not needing of extra layers, the problem is that in this culture of theft, people have to defend their rights with efforts at DMCA takedowns, and not everybody has the time, knowledge, lawyers, etc. to do this.
Creative Commons is not a body authorized to issue licenses by any government or intergovernment entity, and therefore is not lawful *for that purpose* whatever it's technical "legality" as a registered 501-c-3 -- non-profits are free to espouse any silly cause they like as long as they follow a few simple rules, i.e. not endorsing political platforms, or making a profit, or allowing cruelty to animals. If they want to put silly blue ribbons on silly cows everywhere and say those cows are now recognized for sharing, they can. They can do anything they want under the First Amendment that isn't inciting imminent violence. If they want to espouse communism, they can. Lawful activity under the law doesn't mean they are a *legal entity for the purpose of licensing*.
That's because COPYRIGHT LAW DOES NOT REQUIRE LICENSING TO BE IN EFFECT. COPYRIGHT IS INHERENT AND DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION.
Communist systems LOOOOVE registration. They love the idea of "licenses" because that means that some "authority" is "in power". But...it isn't. There is nothing in copyright law that says "this is enacted through the Copyright Licensing Authority with we authorize to be Creative Commons". Nothing of the sort WHATSOEVER.
Creative Commons license-offering functiong is as fictional as the currency of a game. It is a limited EULA or TOS that enables you to access content in a virtual world. It has no intrinsic value and itself cannot defend copyright which does not require it.
Of course, the creators of CC want to blur the distinctions of what is and isn't a government body or what is or isn't required by international law like the Berne convention or national law like the U.S. code because they *want to set themselves up as authorities, communists always do that*.
Truly, the destructiveness of communism, given its zeal and ingeniousness at times at destruction to seek overwhelming power for itself, can seem confounding. But as it is based on coercion and illegitimacy, sooner or later, it tumbles, just as CC will tumble the minute somebody gets something going on the Internet that gets people paid and helps them with DMCA.
Like Second Life, despite its flaws.
Linden Lab never saw the need to force the CC license in its world, and that is something we should be grateful to them for, and hope they never change. And whatever the slowness and uneveness of response, LL recognizes the DMCA concept and acts on it.
Copyright exists regardless of what people dream up to put on their site about how they give it away.
Putting a notice on your site that you make your work available for personal or non-commercial use but encourage people to contact you to pay you because you need to earn a living is as easy as typing the lines I just typed, without any lawyer or cost. More people should do it; it's important to push back against the surreal and destructive virtual world of CC.
As the comments are getting rather long, I'll add here some general
statements that I think are useful to advance this discussion with
those sincere about having it. Dale Innis and Gareth Nelson are never
sincere about having a discussion; both of them are merely interested
in trying to perpetuate the tribal technocommunistic doctrines that
serve them, and trying to play "gotcha" with me. In fact, their
infantile drive to play "gotcha" completely overrides any value their
debate has. I think it might be a good idea, when they write long
rebuttals to whatever I say, to wait and see if any other reader shares
these same concerns *genuinely* and asks them *in good faith* --
because they don't. They've long ago discredited themselves with
fisking, Haskelling, literalism of the sort so often summed up as
"trolling" (a term I reject as too overbroad myself, but which is
evocative of behaviour for many people).
No amount of debating them would quell their concerns because their concerns aren't genuine. Even if we could posit that they *are* genuine, their zealousness spring from beliefs, beliefs as religious as any religion, and unexamined as such, but it's a religion I don't share, and which I actively repudiate precisely because it's so doctrinaire. The CC blog pages defending its action in the lawsuit against it, for example, are tremendously telling to me of a culture -- no, a cult, really -- of defensiveness, insularity, and immunity to criticism.

September 1997
|This year's relay racers handed off five-foot-long "aqua noodles"--fortunately, they were light noodles.
|Cruising to victory: cyclist Alan Hills.
|Barb Bailey took first place in the women's foot race.
The nail-biter of the afternoon was the divisional relay. In the traditional finale--directors running the last leg--ACD's Paul Sperry (filling in for Guy Brasseur) came in just one second ahead of Maurice Blackmon (CGD). The participation-weighted results also ended up in ACD's favor. "One of our people raced in sandals and a skirt. We were trying to get participation rather than to win," says Paul. The semi-torrid race conditions segued into delightful shade on the tree plaza at the after-race party, where awards were bestowed and beverages downed. BH

And when it comes to people, some are just plain undesirable, like murderers and rapists, and some just don't go together well, like Hindus and Muslims, Jews and Palestinians, Blacks and Whites. Do I make my point?
As Chateau Heartiste puts it:
Study: Diversity + Proximity = War (With Addendum On The Perceptive Genius Of CH)
May as well get this out of way early:
An April 2015 research paper concludes that the Heartiste formulation
is a fact, is true, is empirically sound, and is an accurate description of the way the world actually works, (instead of the way various open borders 'toids insist the world works through the haze of their equalist acid trip).
The Nature of Conflict
This research establishes that the emergence, prevalence, recurrence, and severity of intrastate conflicts in the modern era reflect the long shadow of prehistory. Exploiting variations across national populations, it demonstrates that genetic diversity, as determined predominantly during the exodus of humans from Africa tens of thousands of years ago, has contributed significantly to the frequency, incidence, and onset of both overall and ethnic civil conflict over the last half-century, accounting for a large set of geographical and institutional correlates of conflict, as well as measures of economic development. Furthermore, the analysis establishes the significant contribution of genetic diversity to the intensity of social unrest and to the incidence of intragroup factional conflict. These findings arguably reflect the contribution of genetic diversity to the degree of fractionalization and polarization across ethnic, linguistic, and religious groups in the national population; the adverse influence of genetic diversity on interpersonal trust and cooperation; the contribution of genetic diversity to divergence in preferences for public goods and redistributive policies; and the potential impact of genetic diversity on economic inequality within a society.

The London Olympics are just around the corner, and rumors are building that Grammy darling Adele may be the artist picked to perform at the closing ceremony. Music director David Arnold remains coy, but acknowledged that the summer lineup is diverse.
"Without saying we have booked anyone, it goes from Elgar to Adele," he said. "It is not just a pop concert, it is not just a classical rendition. It will be everything that we think is fabulous about British music."
Paul McCartney was reportedly in talks to work with the Olympics in some fashion; other names rumored to be involved in the production include The Rolling Stones and the London Symphony Orchestra. Who do you hope performs at the London Olympics closing ceremony?
