My Second Draft Of 2009: FSIC AL-Only Experts League
This past weekend, I had the privilege of participating in a fantasy baseball experts draft as part of the Fantasy Sports Invitational Challenge sponsored by Fantasy Sports R Us.
The league consists of 12 teams and features an AL-only player universe – meaning you will find names and draft positions of some players that might not make any sense for your league.
For those of you who are playing in AL-only leagues this season, publishing these draft results could be a real gift. This was probably the toughest draft I have ever participated in because I had to dig deep into my dungeon of player knowledge to come up with late round draft picks as I did in this draft.
5×5 roto scoring will be used for points with set lineups locked each week on Monday. Every team has one hitter at each field position, one middle infielder, one corner infielder, five outfielders, one DH spot and nine pitcher spots.
The draft consisted of 27 rounds in a snake format, making this the LONGEST and deepest draft I have ever seen.
When you're in an AL-only league – that isn't really the best thing!
Since I was the newest member of the league, I was granted the first draft pick. Since Alex Rodriguez is out, I drafted Grady Sizemore no. 1. I'm very high on Sizemore in 2009, and we have him ranked our top outfielder heading into the season.
Miguel Cabrera was the first first baseman drafted at no. 3. AL MVP Dustin Pedroia went no. 4 as the first second baseman off the board. Evan Longoria was the first hot corner at no. 9. C.C. Sabathia capped the end of round 1 as the first pitcher selected.
Josh Hamilton (no. 2), Matt Holliday (5), Mark Teixeira (6), Ian Kinsler (7), B.J. Upton (8), Justin Morneau (10), and Carlos Quentin (11) also went in round one. A-Rod was noticeably missing from round one due to his injury.
Jonathan Papelbon was the first closer off the board with the fourth pick in round two. David Ortiz was the first DH-only player drafted in round three. After going in round two at no. 17 overall in my mixed league draft last week, Derek Jeter was the first shortstop taken – with the third pick in round four! Victor Martinez was the first catcher selected with the last pick in round four.
Things to note from this draft:
- Baltimore top prospect Matt Wieters was the second catcher drafted, eight picks before Joe Mauer, in round five.
- Cy Young winner Cliff Lee was the 9th pitcher off the board, no. 36 overall.
- Immediately following the draft, I traded my third round pick (Jon Lester) for no. 3 pick in round three (Jermaine Dye).
- Chien Ming Wang – the steal of my mixed league draft – was selected with the first pick in round six.
- Brian Buscher – the Minnesota Twins backup third baseman – was Mr. Irrelevent.
The steal of this draft – in my opinion – was Joe Crede, drafted with the sixth pick in round 16 (no. 186 overall). While he has battled injuries the past couple seasons, he produced 5×5 numbers in his last full season (2006) of .283/30/94/76/0. CBS Sports projects him to hit 17 homeruns and bat .256 in only 366 at-bats this year, but if he is healthy, Crede could easily exceed those numbers playing 81 games in the Homerdome in 2009.
The players I drafted in each round are listed below with overall selection number in parentheses. Admittedly, I punted saves during this draft, but hopefully I can stream some saves as closers get injured.

The syllabus hints that discussions will touch on marketing, religion, gay culture, sex, and gender.
Here are ten books that belong on any syllabus of self-transformation.
Yep, you read that right: The glamorous world of global influence peddling just got its own syllabus.
If there is a theme that runs through Hagel's syllabus choices, it's a pretty realpolitik one.
The syllabus is excellent in the attention paid to games, in the commendation of skipping and of dancing.
He himself was keeping his mind on the syllabus with considerable difficulty.
The writer would anticipate the criticism that the list of books specified in the syllabus for reading is incomplete.
Besides, it was borrowed from the syllabus of a degraded superstition.
The syllabus had not permanently fixed his attention upon it.
He was suspended from his priestly functions, dressed as a layman, and was temerarious enough to criticise the syllabus.

From Oscar® winner to "Don't leave home without it" American Express pitchman - Karl Malden's Hollywood career has been long and varied. He began his career on stage in 1937 and over sixty years later, Malden was still going strong, with a 2000 appearance on TV's The West Wing. In the intervening years, Malden not only won an Oscar®, but also an Emmy, a SAG lifetime achievement award, as well as several Golden Globe nominations. He starred in a hit TV series and worked with an impressive list of Hollywood greats, from actors like Marlon Brando and Burt Lancaster to directors such as Elia Kazan and John Ford.
He was born Mladen Sekulovich on March 22, 1912 in Chicago. Malden's mother was Czech and his father Serbian. Raised in Gary, Indiana, Malden spoke Serbian as a child - and never learned English until he was in kindergarten. His father often produced plays at the local church. Malden appeared in many of these productions, including a stage version of Jack and the Beanstalk. In high school, he participated in drama and basketball. According to his autobiography, it was on the court that Malden's trademark nose was shaped; he apparently broke it twice while playing basketball.
After school, Malden, like many in his hometown, took a job in a steel factory. But in 1934, he left the factory, hoping to find more meaningful work. He attended the Arkansas State Teacher's College for a short time before enrolling at Chicago's Goodman Dramatic School. After graduation, Malden headed for New York where he joined the Group Theatre. Founded in 1931, the Group Theatre taught the groundbreaking Stanislavski method of acting. Here, Malden would make his Broadway debut in 1937's Golden Boy. One of his co-stars in the play, and another Group Theatre regular, was Elia Kazan.
Malden made his screen debut with a small part in 1940's They Knew What They Wanted. World War II would soon interrupt, putting his career aspirations on hold. During the war, Malden served as a noncommissioned officer in the 8th Air Force. He did make one wartime film, the star-filled recruiting drama Winged Victory(1944). The film led to a brief contract with Fox and Malden made several post-war movies for the studio including the spy thriller 13 Rue Madeleine (1947), Kiss of Death (1947), a crime drama with Victor Mature and Richard Widmark, and Boomerang! (1947), which starred Dana Andrews and was directed by old friend Kazan.
The same year, Kazan would cast Malden in two Broadway productions - first in Arthur Miller's All My Sons and then in Tennessee William's A Streetcar Named Desire. Most of the Streetcar cast, including Malden, made the jump to the big screen in 1951 for a film adaptation of the play. For his role as Mitch, Malden was awarded the Best Supporting Actor Oscar®. A Streetcar Named Desire also won Oscar®s for Best Actress (Vivien Leigh), Best Supporting Actress (Kim Hunter), and Best Art Direction, as well as receiving eight more nominations. The film marked a definite turning point in Malden's career. After his Oscar® win, the roles started coming more quickly - and they were leading roles.
Malden's next big film (again with Kazan and Brando), came in 1954 with On the Waterfront. He would again be Oscar® nominated for his portrayal of Father Barry, the meddling, yet sympathetic priest. Malden rounded out the 50s with strong performances in films like: Baby Doll (1956), where he played a man married to a teenager; Fear Strikes Out (1957) a baseball biopic starring Anthony Perkins; and The Hanging Tree (1959), a Gary Cooper western that cast Malden as the villain. He also found time to direct his only film, the Korean War drama Time Limit (1957).
The 60s were equally busy for Malden. He teamed with Brando again in the revisionist western One-Eyed Jacks(1961). He played warden to Burt Lancaster's lifetime prisoner in Birdman of Alcatraz (1962) and he was Natalie Wood's agent in Gypsy (1962). He also appeared in John Ford's last western, Cheyenne Autumn(1964); a turn opposite Steve McQueen and Edward G. Robinson in the poker classic The Cincinnati Kid(1965); and a co-starring role in Billion Dollar Brain (1967) with Michael Caine.
By the '70s, roles were proving a little scarce for Malden though he did kick off the decade with a bang, playing Omar Bradley to George C. Scott's Patton (1970). In 1972, he took a job in television as Detective Mike Stone on The Streets of San Francisco. He was teamed with a then unknown Michael Douglas. The series ran five seasons (from 1972 - 1977) on ABC. Malden was Emmy nominated four times as Best Actor for The Streets of San Francisco but he never won (Malden's only Emmy win would come in 1985 for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited Series or Special for Fatal Vision [1984]).
Malden served as President of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences from 1989 - 1992. And in 2003, he received the Screen Actors Guild Lifetime Achievement Award. It was presented by his old television co-star Michael Douglas. Upon receiving the award, Malden remarked, "I am thrilled to be honored by the Screen Actors Guild because I've been with it for such a long time. The Screen Actors Guild is sort of a highfalutin name for a union, and this union was always wonderful to work for. For the rank-and-file of the union to honor me is the best compliment I can receive."

We are looking forward to hearing a follow up for Leo later this year on the label. Remixes come from firstly one of our favourite producers Ryan Thompson who turns in a tremendous re-rub displaying his classic driving tech house sound which we absolutely love! The second remix comes from Nik Feral who has been bubbling under on the scene for a long time with releases on great labels such as Manchester Underground Music (MUM), 1605 and Globox Its with great pleasure we welcome him to the label ahead of the release of a scorching EP later this summer.

Tarpon Springs OT Zach DeBell figures to be among the county's most sought-after recruits next season. Last year, Minnesota became the first Division I-A program to give the 6-foot-7, 260-pound junior a written offer.
Now, Central Florida has followed suit with a verbal offer, according to Tarpon Springs coach George Kotis. DeBell will play left tackle for the spongers in 2010.
"His body is exploding," Kotis said. "He's going to get a lot of offers."

i was taking in this seemingly picturesque scene of a nice house with a winding driveway surrounded by rolling lawns, and as my eyes scanned the image only then did i notice the ominous clouds of pollution from a factory in the distance. this is the dark undercurrent that runs through daniel shea's ongoing photographic series called plume:
plume is a photographic exploration of southeast ohio and its unusually dense concentration of coal-fired power plants. the project serves as a follow-up to the work i made in 2007 in appalachia, removing mountains, which focused on mountaintop removal, a particularly pervasive form of coal mining. plume follows this coal up river to ohio, where it is being burned to generate electricity.

Wheat and Polenta Bread
Patricia Wells is always searching for new flavors for her breads. One day she had polenta on her mind and created this loaf, which is pleasantly corn-rich but not heavy, as many corn breads can be. It's especially good toasted.
Plus: More Brunch Ideas
- Servings: Makes two 2-pound loaves
- 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 3/4 cup lukewarm milk (105° to 115°)
- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 2 1/4 cups lukewarm water (105° to 115°)
- About 6 cups bread flour
- 2 cups polenta (not instant)
- Coarsely ground cornmeal, for sprinkling
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
How to make this recipe
In the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the paddle, combine the yeast, sugar and milk. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
Add the salt, oil and water and mix at low speed for 1 minute. Gradually add about two-thirds of the flour to the bowl, beating constantly. Gradually mix in the polenta. Mix in as much of the remaining flour as needed to make the dough begin to form a ball. Continue to knead for 5 minutes at low speed. Scrape the paddle clean, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dough until doubled in bulk, about 8 hours or overnight.
Remove the dough from the refrigerator, punch it down and cover with plastic wrap. Let the dough rise at room temperature until doubled in bulk, 2 to 3 hours.
Punch down the dough. Knead it on a lightly floured work surface for 30 seconds. Divide the dough in half and shape it into 2 round loaves. Cover a baking sheet or 2 round baskets of the same size with kitchen towels and sprinkle generously with flour and cornmeal. Place the 2 loaves on the towels and cover loosely with clean kitchen towels. Let the dough rise at room temperature until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
At least 40 minutes before baking, preheat the oven to 475°.
Lightly flour a baking sheet and turn the loaves over onto it. Slash the tops of the loaves several times with a razor blade and place in the oven. Using a plant mister filled with water, generously spray the oven roof and walls, then shut the oven door. Spray the oven three more times during the first 10 minutes of baking.
After 10 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 400° and bake for 20 to 25 minutes more, or until the loaves are dark golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom. Rotate the loaves as necessary during baking so they brown evenly. Cool the loaves on a rack for at least 1 hour before slicing.
Make Ahead
The bread can be stored in a sturdy plastic bag for 3 to 4 days.

When changing the taxonomies' machine names in CK this notice pops up:
Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in commerce_kickstart_taxonomy_preprocess_views_view() (line 41 of.... commerce_kickstart/modules/commerce_kickstart/commerce_kickstart_taxonomy/commerce_kickstart_taxonomy.module).
It 's not really a bug is it? But a lot of people run into it (try googling it and you will find a lot of CK sites stuck on this). Disabling commerce_kickstart_taxonomy is the easiest way to get rid of it, but then one of course looses the build in Product Catalog.
Perhaps a warning not to change the machine names? Is there a way to properly change them? Rebuild the search index with the new names didn't do it for me, but perhaps I didn't do that properly.

i think this a Drupal core issue/bug: it should have the same approach an Content types have: a way to lock the machine names.
There are 2 issues with patches, one for Drupal core and one for Features (as they are built here).
- #2070097-1: Add extra properties Taxonomy vocabularies same as for Content types
- #2070123-1: Lock taxonomy vocabularies same as Content type
So actually you shouldn't change the machine and shouldn't be able to do it.

@jackdaniel9 : This probably means you updated the view with the machine name collection_products and you removed the argument needed by the view (The Taxonomy term id).

If someone with the same error :
We have 2 Kickstart Website
For the first website, we update the version of Kickstart to 7x2.10, the error occurred. (Website with No taxonomy category)
The machine name of Collection Products (Product display) was 'page' and we change for 'collection_products' the error is gone.
For the second Website, the version of Kickstart is 7x2.9, no error occured, and the machine name of Collection Products is 'page'. (Website with taxonomy category)
Comment #6smurfxx CreditAttribution: smurfxx commented
I write my experience with the view "Collection products"
1. In the view details, where you can edit that view, the path of the page is "/product_category" but the menu url (the black on the left of the default site) points to "/product-category", is that right?
2. If I click on the menu I don't have warnings or errors but I can see only products of that category, if I go to "/product_category" I can see any product of that category, even sub-categories products (perfect for what I want to do) but I receive the error you told before.
Also, in the demo site of commerce kickstart we can see a nice banner for every category (To Carry, To Drink With, To Geek Out...), how can I do the same???
This view, for me is the most important of the site, but it's really a mystery...

If you're using Commerce Kickstart the provided catalog is expecting specific things, changing the vocabularies and expecting the default views/search indexes to work will cause unexpected issues.

All of a sudden, things are looking rosy again for Carlton.
The Blues were tipped to be big improvers under new coach Mick Malthouse this year, and those predictions looked to be on the mark after they reached the pre-season grand final.
A winless start from the first three games of the season proper had some fans tapering their expectations.
But if Saturday night's 24-point win over West Coast in Perth is anything to go by, the Blues have the potential to cause teams all sorts of headaches this season.
The pace of Chris Yarran and Jeff Garlett proved the difference in Carlton's first win of the year.
Yarran kicked four goals - including three beauties on the run - while the fleet-footed Garlett recorded seven inside 50s among his 21 possessions and one goal.
Carlton's speed will be given a further boost when Eddie Betts returns from a broken jaw early next month.
And with a kind draw over the next six weeks, Carlton are primed to make a significant charge up the table.
Saturday's clash with Adelaide at the MCG shapes as a tricky encounter, but from there the Blues take on Melbourne, St Kilda, Port Adelaide (home), Brisbane (away) and GWS (home).
Malthouse was proud of his team's effort against the Eagles, and said the addition of Betts would give the side greater potency at ground level.
"That should cause some further headaches and damage to the opposition," Malthouse said after Carlton's 12.17 (89) to 7.23 (65) win.
Forward Jarrad Waite is set to return from a calf injury within the next fortnight, while the Blues can also look forward to the return of ruckman Matthew Kreuzer (broken thumb) at some point over the next month.
West Coast's lack of speed was badly exposed against the Blues, but their biggest concern is the fitness of skipper Darren Glass.
Glass struggled to lift his right arm after damaging muscles in his shoulder, but he remains determined to take his place in Saturday night's crunch clash with unbeaten Port Adelaide at AAMI Stadium.
Vice-captain Beau Waters is a chance to return from a calf injury, but the Eagles (1-3) are still desperately missing the mesmerising talents of ruckman Nic Naitanui.
West Coast have lost three consecutive games at Patersons Stadium this season, with their wayward return of 7.23 against the Blues costing them dearly.
The Eagles face a stiff challenge to achieve their aim of snaring a top-four spot, but Worsfold isn't panicking just yet.
"Are people judging us too early? No, that's their job," Worsfold said.
"You have to write something about can we do it, can't we do it, but no one is really going to care which way you go in 15 rounds.
"I'll be accountable. I look forward to the challenges of that."

I would say too that I am doing my best to enjoy life, there is so much to explore and shape and experience, it seems a waste not to be intentional with the time we have.
I don't own a tv but I have Firefly on my Mac and am so happy Joss Whedon has shows on the air. I am also quite partial to doctor who.
I listen to a lot of podcasts; 'On Being' 'this American life' and Dan savage's lovecast to name a few.
I feel the same way about food as I do about books, as long as the food is well made and interesting I will probably eat it. Sushi is comfort food and although I am not a vegetarian I really enjoy vegetarian food.
2. A cup of coffee in the morning and maybe one in the afternoon.
3. My family, even though they are 3 provinces away.
4. My friends.
5. my work. Working with youth is amazingly rewarding.
6. Yarn. I am unfortunately addicted. The upside is most of my friends have handmade toques keeping their heads warm in the winter.
If you live in my part of the world (sorry not looking for anything long distance)

SkiInstrcwrote a review of Lorpen Silk-Thermolite Ski Socks on November 20, 2006
Nice sock, but not Ultra-Thin
I jam my 9 1/2 shoe in a 25.0 (size 7) boot for ultra performance. I purchased a couple of pairs of these sock because they claimed to be "Ultra-thin." They are not. They are much thicker then the SANPs and would cut circulation off.

Like the design. Voted +1. Please if you like my submission, vote for me!
lovely <3 especially on the blue!
Nice use of birds, you forgot to erase the foot overlapping on the thumb of your placement model.
woah I love this, all my family have your ultimate t-shirt :) we love it
I always got sth with colors…
good 1!
at first I thought the birds were flying out, but they are flying to the rescue. fun.
brown version ftw, olly!
Interesting concept! I like it! :D
While I'm not convinced that "rescue" is conveyed in the image, I find the blue version quite evocative.
For me, the brown/yellow version looks like "a step too far" — as if you were unsatisified with the blue and tried to fix it by dressing it up… or that the brown/yellow was the rough draft. All the emotion that is clear in the blue is lost in the brown.
But the blue one touches me and has my vote.
lovely on blue
Beautiful, I love the blue version
Reminds me of Alfred Hitchcock… The Birds!!
I think either one works..
GIVE ME THIS! I like the blue one just a tad bit better than the brown ;D
love d layout…print+1

Despite the hoopla surrounding the dateDec. 21, 2012, the world is not at risk of coming to a halt, NASA says.
Aside from that date marking next year's winter solstice, the longest night of that year, nothing else interesting is expected.
All in all, "sleep well on Dec. 21 of next year," said astronomer Don Yeomans, manager of NASA's Near-Earth Object program office at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., at a public talk yesterday (Dec. 8) about rumors of a 2012 apocalypse.
"What's so special about Dec. 12 of next year?" Yeomans asked. "A lot of people think it's the end of the Maya calendar." [10 Failed Doomsday Predictions]

There are many diseases and conditions which can cause a cat to lose hair. Some of these may be considered normal, others can indicate a serious disease is present. Most of the conditions which result in hair loss are included in the table below, though some of them may be rare. This extensive list helps you understand why a quick diagnosis may be difficult to make, and various diagnostic tests may need to be performed. The most common conditions causing hair loss are color-coded gray in the table (some may be more common in certain geographical areas).
Allergic and irritant contact dermatitis
An allergic reaction following exposure to antibiotics applied to the skin; metals such as nickel; materials such as rubber, wool, and plastic; chemicals such as dyes and carpet deodorizers; or inflammation caused by irritating substances such as poison ivy. Generally requires multiple exposures.
Red skin and small bumps or blisters on the areas of skin that are sparsely haired and directly exposed to the offending substance; itching; hair loss in chronic conditions
Patch test, exclusion trials
Restrict exposure to the allergen or contact irritant in the cat's environment; steroids, antihistamines
Atopy (allergic inhalant dermatitis)
Allergic reaction to something the cat inhales such as pollen, house dust mites, and mold
Licking of feet, inflamed ears, itching, redness, and hair loss; sometimes development of infection or hot spots
Intradermal or serologic (blood) testing for allergies
Reduce exposure to allergen (what the cat is allergic to), steroids, omega 3 fatty acid supplements, antihistamines, shampoos, immunotherapy
See Folliculitis
Cheyletiella (rabbit fur mite) mange
Infection with the Cheyletiella mite
Itching, scaliness; some hair loss, if severe
Skin scraping and microscopic examination - the mite is often very difficult to find
Demodectic mange
Infection may be localized or generalized; the generalized form occurs in cats who have a deficient immune system
Hair loss, scaliness, redness, sometimes itching
Skin scraping and microscopic examination
NO Steroids!
Rotenone, dilute Amitraz (Mitaban) dips, lime sulfur dips, ivermectin (off-label use*)
Flea allergy dermatitis (flea bite hypersensitivity)
Severe reaction by the cat to the saliva of the flea
Intense itching, redness, hair loss papules, crusts and scales; sometimes development of infection or hot spots
Presence of fleas; reaction to intradermal testing
Flea Control in the environment and on the cat; steroids and antihistamines for the itching
Food allergies
Allergic reaction to something in the diet
Food elimination trials
Change in diet
Infection with several species of lice
Variable: itching, hair loss, crusts, rough hair coat
Finding lice or nits on skin or hair
Pyrethrin, ivermectin (off-label use*)
Usually follows some other underlying disease
Itching, redness, hair loss, greasy scales; if chronic develop hyperpigmentation
Skin scraping/smear and microscopic examination, culture
Treat underlying disease; oral ketoconazole; miconazole shampoos
Psychogenic (neurogenic) dermatitis
Self-licking in cats results in self-trauma; possible causes include anxiety, boredom, stress (e.g., new member in household)
Symmetrical hair loss, sometimes ulcers, on abdomen, groin, along the back
Exclude other causes; history important
Relieve underlying cause e.g., anxiety; restrict licking; behavior modifying medication may be necessary
(see Folliculitis)
Infection with several types of fungus
Hair loss, scaliness, crusty areas; some itching
Miconazole, lime sulfur dips; oral griseofulvin or itraconazole
* off-label use: medication used to treat a condition for which it was not developed (or licensed). A large number of medications fall under this category. Research has almost always been performed to determine the effectiveness and safety of the product, but the manufacturer has not undertaken the lengthy process required for licensure.

HP's iPAQ Voice Messenger smartphone wins points for its looks, but it's not all good news. The optical controller is mediocre and the keypad is flat, making an otherwise competent handset frustrating to use.
The HP iPAQ Voice Messenger is a stylish smartphone that is definitely worth some attention. Unfortunately, HP has let down the iPAQ brand by implementing a frustrating control system and giving the Voice Messenger an uncomfortable keypad.
The HP iPAQ Voice Messenger certainly looks the part. It has been completely redesigned and looks nothing like previous iPAQ mobile phones. It's quite sleek and stylish, and is similar in stature to the RIM BlackBerry Pearl 8120 smartphone. It feels solid, though the rear casing does squeak slightly when pressed and the glossy chrome finish on the back of the phone is a fingerprint magnet.
But if HP deserves credit for the design of the iPAQ Voice Messenger, it certainly doesn't for the implementation of the controls. Instead of a regular five-way navigational pad, HP has opted for what it calls a four-way optical controller: a round, sunken key that you glide your finger across to move around the interface. Its lack of responsiveness is an issue — sometimes it registers a finger swipe perfectly but other times it simply won't respond. It makes using the HP iPAQ Voice Messenger a frustrating experience, especially since you are forced to use it because there is no touch screen.
The HP iPAQ Voice Messenger's keyboard is similar to the BlackBerry Pearl's, with two letters on each key. The predictive text method works quite well, but we feel the keys are too flat and a little small, so it does take a while to adjust to. There is a dedicated key lock button and a silent mode slider (located at the top of the handset). Unfortunately, the mode slider requires more force than it should.
Despite not being a touch-screen smartphone, the HP iPAQ Voice Messenger still runs the Windows Mobile 6.1 operating system. HP has focussed on usability and provided an intuitive HP Sliding Panel Media home screen menu, which consists of a number of panels. You glide your finger across the optical controller to access them. Panels on the home screen include time and date, missed calls, calendar appointments, music, photos and settings. They're designed to prevent you having to delve into the Windows Start menu too often. The iPAQ Voice Messenger's display is crisp, sharp and has good viewing angles, but it is difficult to see in direct sunlight.
The HP iPAQ Voice Messenger includes all the programs and features of Windows Mobile 6.1, including Excel, PowerPoint and Word Mobile applications, Windows Media Player, Google Maps and a range of PIM functions. It's easy to configure for use with Microsoft Exchange, and you can also use standard POP3 and IMAP e-mail accounts, including Gmail and Yahoo! Mail. A suite of Windows Live applications includes Windows Live Messenger and Hotmail.
The phone has a built-in GPS receiver, though there is no turn-by-turn navigational software bundled. Google Maps is preinstalled, but this is a location-based search feature and doesn't offer full navigation. You can improve the performance of the GPS by running the included GPS Connection Utility Software — this downloads a small data file that helps the device find a GPS fix faster.
In addition to 7.2 HSDPA support, the HP iPAQ Voice Messenger includes Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP. For mobile Internet, the standard Internet Explorer browser isn't the most intuitive to use, but pages loaded fairly speedily. Other features include a 3.1-megapixel camera with autofocus, expandable memory thanks to a microSD card slot, and a 2.5mm headphone jack. Charging the iPAQ Voice Messenger and synchronising the smartphone with a PC is achieved through a micro-USB port.

HP OfficeJet 250 Mobile Printer
The HP OfficeJet 250 Mobile Printer is a great device that fits perfectly into my fast paced and mobile lifestyle. My first impression of the printer itself was how incredibly compact and sleek the device was.
HP OfficeJet 250 Mobile Printer
Wireless printing from my iPhone was also a handy feature, the whole experience was quick and seamless with no setup requirements - accessed through the default iOS printing menu options.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
A smarter way to print for busy small business owners, combining speedy printing with scanning and copying, making it easier to produce high quality documents and images at a touch of a button.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
I've had a multifunction printer in the office going on 10 years now. It was a neat bit of kit back in the day -- print, copy, scan, fax -- when printing over WiFi felt a bit like magic. It's seen better days though and an upgrade's well overdue. This HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 looks like it ticks all the same boxes: print, copy, scan, and fax. (Really? Does anyone fax anything any more? I guess it's good to know the facility's there, just in case.) Printing over WiFi is more-or- less standard these days.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
As a freelance writer who is always on the go, I like my technology to be both efficient and effective so I can do my job well. The HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 Inkjet Printer ticks all the boxes in terms of form factor, performance and user interface.
Windows 10 for Business / Dell XPS 13
I'd happily recommend this touchscreen laptop and Windows 10 as a great way to get serious work done at a desk or on the road.

Chiefs get to Holovach early, take finale over Clinton, 5-3
Three-run fourth too much for L'Kings to overcome
By Cheyne Reiter / Clinton LumberKings | July 10, 2014 10:40 PM ET
Peoria, IL - The Clinton LumberKings' wait for a series win was extended Thursday night at Dozer Park in Peoria. The LumberKings (7-12, 37-50) quest at ending a five-week series-winning drought never blossomed as they trailed from start to finish in a 5-3 loss to the Peoria Chiefs (13-7, 50-39).
Blake Holovach (4-3), making his second start of the season for Clinton, gave up one run on two soft singles to right in the first. The latter of the two by Ronald Castillo scored Juan Herrera from third.
In the second, Peoria doubled their lead, thanks to Luis Perez's solo blast to left - his first home run of the season.
Down 2-0, Clinton got one run back in the third inning off of Chase Brookshire (3-4). Three singles by Lonnie Kauppila, Aaron Barbosa, and Chantz Mack resulted in the lone run.
Peoria took advantage of Clinton's only error in the fourth inning. Reinheimer's high throw to first allowed Ronald Castillo to reach safely, and two singles and one two-RBI double later, the two-bagger by Rafael Medina, gave the Chiefs a four-run lead, 5-1.
Clinton got a two-out, two-run double of their own in the sixth inning when Martin Peguero plated Chantz Mack and Marcus Littlewood whose slide at the plate was ahead of the Chiefs' relay.
Brookshire left prior to that, recording the first out in the sixth inning. He picked up his third win of the season after allowing just two runs - one earned - on five hits and one walk. Three right-handers recorded the final 11 outs for Peoria, led by Zach Loraine who retired all seven batters he faced.
The LumberKings did knock two singles in the ninth, but Aaron Barbosa grounded out to second, giving Clinton another tight loss.
Of Clinton's last nine games, eight have been decided by two runs or fewer. The L'Kings are just 3-5 in those contests.
Holovach delivered another quality start, despite allowing a season-high nine hits. He allowed five runs with only three being earned.
Lonnie Kauppila recorded three hits in four at-bats, and Peguero extended his hitting streak to six games going 2-for-4.
The LumberKings will play two games tomorrow night at Ashford University Field against the Cedar Rapids Kernels. Game one will be the completion of a suspended game on June 30th in Cedar Rapids and will begin in the top of the 10th inning, tied 3-3. Game two will start 30 minutes after the conclusion of game one. The second game features two right-handers on the mound - Seon Gi Kim (0-2, 2.61) of Clinton against Kohl Stewart (1-5, 2.67) of Cedar Rapids. First pitch in game one is set for 5:30 PM CT. Fans who provide proof of their American Family Insurance coverage will receive up to four general admission tickets at the front gate. The broadcast can be heard on WCCI 100.3 FM and WCCIRadio.com.

This package consists of a Presonus StudioLive 16.0.2 digital mixing console along with a pair of Harbinger APS12 powered PA speakers. A pair of Musician's Gear All-Steel Tripod Speaker Stands, 2 TRS cables, 4 mics and 4 XLR cables are included as well.
Presonus StudioLive 16.0.2 Mixer
With a œfootprint of less than 2 square feet, the compact, 16-channel StudioLive 16.0.2 offers 8 mono input channels and 4 stereo channels and provides 12 XMAX Class A solid-state mic preamps. Packed with features and processing power, the 16.0.2 employs the same workflow and easy-to-use mixing-surface design as the bigger (16.4.2 and 24.4.2) StudioLive boards, and sounds every bit as good, with the same high-definition, wide-dynamic-range, digital converters. The 16.0.2 integrates a 16x16 FireWire interface and comes with Capture, Studio One Artist recording and production software, and Virtual StudioLive, bidirectional control software.
The 16.0.2's Fat Channel features compressors, limiters, gates, phase reverse, high-pass filters, and 3-band semi-parametric EQ. Two stereo, 32-bit floating-point effects processors deliver delay and reverb effects.
Moreover, a glance at the rear panel reveals that the 16.0.2 even offers MIDI In and Out. You can recall Scenes from a DAW using MIDI Program Changes, control the main output volume and effects level, and even mute effects between songs.
Two factors work against getting that Perfect Mix with an analog mixer. First, the Perfect Mix can be hard to reproduce a week, day, or hour after you perfect it. And second, a good mix should be dynamic: levels, effects, and EQ should be tailored to each song or segment of the show, service, or presentation. StudioLive solves this problem by letting you save all of your digital settings for quick setup and recall.
Harbinger APS12
The 150W Harbinger APS12 is a 12", 2-way, powered PA speaker system with full-range response that makes it ideal for vocals and acoustic performances. The Harbinger APS12 is equipped with a 12" woofer with a 1-3/8" compression driver, 3-channel mic/line mixer, 2 mic/line input channels with individual balanced and unbalanced connections, 1 dual RCA/single XLR line input for playback devices, and much more.
Our product catalog varies by country due to manufacturer restrictions. If you change the Ship-To country, some or all of the items in your cart may not ship to the new destination.

A lovely atmosphere, created by the location and the excellent staff. The location was ideal for visiting several chateau. The immediate location, set among fields, with a pond near the main entrance, was a delight.
Very well sited for the Loire Chateaux. Good family run hotel with excellent restaurant and service. Would have been nice to have a shower screen on the bath. Not too warm when we were there in September, but in summer months the rooms lacking aircon might be an issue.
We liked the location for seeing chateaux, the garden restaurant, the beautifully decorated bedroom, the wonderful bathroom and the comfortable pilows and bed. The food was wonderful, although the breakfast buffet was more limited that in the other hotels we stayed in. Unfortunately, something happened with our reservation.I had the booking.com confirmation I received for the night of Sept.1st, but the Auberge du Centre had a booking confirmation for that night and the night before when we were still in Roissy and attending a wedding.The woman at the desk was very upset about this and she spent at least twenty minutes talking to me about it.There was little I could do but explain my end of the reservation(in French, I might add) and feel more and more upset as she went on.I felt sorry that a mistake had happened and for her loss of income.This problem took the joy out of what should have been a very pleasant experience.I never received any confirmation other than for Sept.1st for this hotel from you.
Excellent food. Pleasant grounds. Comparatively expensive. Fixed menu only on evening of our visit.
Very pleasent service. Room very nicely decorated, elegant and stylish, but not too heavy, creating a cosy atmosphere. Quiet. Excellent restaurant, aperitif offered by the hotel in a comfortable common space/bar.
The staff were all excellent;having a broadband computer to check my emails was very helpful;breakfast was good. Dinner was only average
The staff were very friendly and helpfull. The location for the gardens of Chaumont could not have been better. No
Lovely hosts who were incredibly helpful and efficient. The hotel is atmospheric in a slightly Agatha Christie, old fashioned way. The pool is lovely. The facilities are simple but good for a three star. Didnt eat in the restaurant as closed on a Sunday night but looked very nice. Very good value and great position by the Chateau entrance. Perfect for visit to garden arts festival. I would try and get a slightly larger room for another stay but I think we had the last room. No.
Excellent reception and support by staff. Convenient to Chaumont Chateau for the Festival des Jardins
The freindly staff & the good facilities.
We had a lovely dinner at the hotel and explored the nearby chateau and countryside.
Very clean and well maintained, excellent welcome. Food was poor
Our welcome at reception was wonderful, the location near the river and adjacent to the entrance to the Chateau was very convenient and the room was comfortable. The hotel has a very friendly, relaxed atmosphere.
Realy good localisation - 10 m from entrance to Chaumont-sur-Loire, beautifful room
Polite and helpful staff Harrd bed

Choi-Young General Belief in Korea
General Choi-Young was a premier and commander in chief of the armed forces of the Goryeo Dynasty during the 14th century. The general was greatly respected for his loyalty, patriotism, and humility. He was executed by his subordinate commanders, headed by General Lee Sung Gye, who later became the first king of the Choseon Dynasty. He became a deity of Korean and his powers can be found through images in the temples and the intercession of spirit mediums (shamans) nowadays.
This study focuses on Choi-Young General's life and the process of his deification through the history of the Goryeo Dynasty (Goryeo Sa) and the veritable records of the Choseon Dynasty (Choseon wangjo sillok). What people though of him is considered through the unauthorized history and folktale. In addition, to evaluate the importance of him in shaman many factors of temples of Choi-Young are actually investigated by the author in the regions of Korea.
From the record of history documents, there was one-sided estimation about Choi-Young by Choseon Dynasty's scholars. They said that he was stubborn, foolish and had enormous mistake to decide attack Ming Dynasty that was more powerful than Korea at that time in 1388. Nevertheless, General Choi-Young was worshipped from the first of Choseon Dynasty. There are two ways of worship of Choi-Young. He is worshipped in many temples as a hero. Especially, in Korean Shamanism he becomes an important deity. The reason that shamans deified him is not due to his achievements or his great personality but is due to his miserable death.

The singular outstanding question of Australian politics today is: how embedded is
While, as the senior NSW Liberal MP, the Prime Minister would have been to scores of fundraising dinners with the likes of
Factionally, as a prominent right-winger, Abbott has been opposed to the party's dominant left-wing grouping – the authors of the corrupt powerbroker-parliamentarian-lobbyist model.
The Prime Minister has been aligned with the Liberal pro-democracy campaigners and political cleanskins,
Nonetheless, there have been two worrying black marks against Abbott's integrity – signs that he can be muddle-headed in dealing with industry lobbyists. The first was his appointment of Sinodinos as assistant treasurer last September, when the dogs were already barking about the Australian Water Holdings imbroglio.
The second was his approval of
At the time of Furnival's appointment in late 2013, the commonwealth, state and territory health departments were working on a new nutritional labelling system for processed food – displaying "star" ratings on the front of supermarket products, so that consumers could be better informed about their purchases. In large part, the scheme was a response to Australia's obesity epidemic.
Not surprisingly, the processed food industry opposed the measure. If the public had clearer warnings about some of the things they were buying off supermarket shelves, they might eat more fruit and vegetables. In Furnival, they found a champion for their cause. He had previously worked for Cadbury and Mondelez International (a Kraft brand).
While serving on Nash's staff, he maintained a directorship and 50 per cent ownership of Strategic Issues Management (SIM), a company which wholly owned Australian Public Affairs (APA). The other half of SIM was owned by Furnival's wife,
On February 6, Furnival's conflict played out in practice. The Health Star Rating System was loaded onto the internet, the first stage in the scheme's implementation. Furnival phoned an assistant secretary in the Health Department and demanded that the website be taken down. The public servant refused. Nash then contacted a deputy secretary who arranged for the ratings system to be removed.Not surprisingly, a political scandal emerged, forcing Furnival's resignation. Despite misleading the Senate about the connection between her chief of staff and APA, Nash kept her job.
Another aspect of Furnival's background needs to be mentioned: his role in securing a $16 million federal grant for the Cadbury chocolate factory in Hobart. Despite warning the nation of a "budget emergency", Abbott found enough money in the Coalition's draft fiscal plan to promise the subsidy during the 2013 election campaign.
Twelve months earlier, Furnival had lobbied the Tasmanian Labor government to secure taxpayer funds for the chocolate maker, a proposal subsequently abandoned by Cadbury in favour of Federal money.
When the Liberal leader launched his Willy Wonka policy on 28 August, Furnival was part of the official party, Abbott later describing him as the company's "economist".
Earlier this year, as the new government faced a number of difficult industry decisions, increasingly, the Cadbury grant appeared incongruous. Whereas the Coalition ruled out subsidies for Australia's ailing car industry and an embattled fruit-cannery in Victoria, it was willing to support a Tasmanian chocolate factory. The political class was left wondering: what did Cadbury have that other parts of the manufacturing sector lacked? The answer was Furnival's personal relationship with Abbott.
Most notably, the lobbyist had participated in the Liberal leader's annual Pollie Pedal charity ride, with Cadbury providing financial sponsorship.
Pollie Pedal is a real Boy's Own adventure, a week-long male bonding exercise, in which the participants cycle from town to town, spreading the gospel of Saint Tony. The riders pride themselves on sleeping rough and refusing to "break camp".
This was the perfect setting for Abbott and Furnival to form a genuine affinity. Certainly, they had a lot in common, with both men deeply religious and politically conservative. The Cadbury grant was an example of economic preferment, money for political interests close to Abbott.
At least the Coalition's industry policies have had one beneficial spin-off. From the awarding of the Cadbury grant and the abolition of the food ratings system, Abbott has provided a huge boost to bicycle sales in Australia.
He now has a long queue of corporate executives and would-be sponsors wanting to participate in future bike rides. Look out for the Tour de Furnival, greasing the wheels of government, coming soon to a town or suburb near you. Abbott has given new, literal meaning to the notion of influence peddling.

Tall and silver-haired, Cornyn looks like a casting director's dream senator. He's a protage of the president's political adviser, Karl Rove. Bush and members of his Cabinet made numerous campaign appearances for Cornyn.
Cornyn spent most of his public career on the bench. He served six years as a district court judge and seven as a member of the Texas Supreme Court before doffing his robes in 1997 to seek election as state attorney general. Cornyn was the first Republican elected to that position since Reconstruction.
As attorney general, he appeared personally before the U.S. Supreme Court to argue in favor of the right of Texas high school athletes to participate in voluntary prayer before football games. Cornyn lost the case, but he probably won points with Texas' tradition-minded voters.
Cornyn, who grew up in historically Hispanic San Antonio, has reached out to Texas' Hispanic constituency, both as attorney general and as a Senate candidate. He maintains Spanish-language Web sites and advertises on Spanish-language media.
Cornyn, 50, has two daughters and a grandchild. He graduated from Trinity University and St. Mary's School of Law, both in San Antonio. He earned a master's of law degree from the University of Virginia in 1995.
An avid jogger, he has annually challenged employees in his attorney general's office to compete in an annual 10K race through Austin, the state capital.

Technymon, that is part of The Mongodi group, is one of the SMEs which have internationalized their business, by opening some productive branches in Europe, USA, Brazil, India while keeping their main office in Italy. The spirit of the group is to be "world citizens" by participating in the social, economic, and cultural life of the nation it works in and thus becoming an integral part of the society. This conviction has been the starting point of a cultural project of wide international scope, aimed at the interchange and the diffusion of any expression of creativity. In order to develop this project, Technymon started to establish some cooperative relations with different realities and for this reason the collaboration with Arte Laguna Prize originated.

Haplogroup W occurs primarily in South Asia, the Near East, Central Asia, and Europe, with an average of only 1% of the population being of this group. Due to this low percentage, higher concentrations reported in some studies are only due to the small sample size rather than a result of an actual higher concentration of W's. That said, as indicated on the map, there are clearly peak concentrations of W's (5% to 10% of the population) in Pakistan, Kurdistan and Northwest Iran, and Finland. However these general figures disguise important differences between the subgroups.
The first migration of modern humans out of Africa began 55,000 to 87,000 years ago. Among these were ancestors of the the M and N haplogroups, descended from the African L3. These first Eurasian descendents of genetic Eve are believed to have expanded along the Indian Ocean coastline (in this period there was dry land across what are now the mouths of the Red Sea and Persian Gulf). After a quick initial expansion along the coast, all the way to Australia, there was a slower conquest of the interior of Asia.
In 2004 the birthdate of Wilma, the first member of the W haplogroup, was estimated at between 49,000 and 26,800 years ago. By 2009 this had been reduced to 29,700 to 13,000 years ago. HVR coalescence dates for the W subgroups point to the low end of that range - around 15,000 years ago.
Coalescence ages for W and its subgroups using coding region, HVR1, or HVR1+2 data as available. "Consensus" ages, taking into account the various alternatives and the necessary amount of change for subgroups to develop, are indicated by the vertical boxes.
The earlier theory, based on the believed antiquity of W and the peak concentrations and subgroups of W's in Pakistan and western Anatolia, conjectured that between 40,700 and 23,300 years ago, the W's, U7, and R2 haplogroups were distributed in a band across southwest Asia. With the onset of the last glacial maximum, the area became extremely arid and the mountains blocked by glaciers. The W-U7-R2 people were broken into two groups, separated by an arid desert that stretched from the Indian Ocean up to the glacier-bound Asian mountains. These tribes managed to survive in these two areas of 'glacial refuge'. A similar refuge had been proposed in Spain for the ancestors of the H and V haplogroups that dominate in Western Europe.
After the glaciers receded and the deserts retreated 14,000 years ago, the way was then clear for the expansion of modern humans from their ice age prisons. Wilma's descendants entered Europe through the Balkans, spreading in several directions.
However with the current date estimates, the discovery of significant concentrations of W's in central Asia, and the detailed geographical distribution of the subgroups, an alternate hypothesis seems more likely. It now seems most likely that Wilma was born around 16,000 years ago in Central Asia. Even if this occurred in an Indian subcontinent 'glacial refuge', the main event was that her descedents were part of the post-glacial expansion into the steppes. The W1, W3, W4, and W6 subgroups all originated there. They later migrated into India and Europe with the expansion of pastoralism and agriculture.
Another indication of the Central Asian origin for haplogroup W is the fact that only a single example of the 'sister' N2 haplogroup has ever been found. This was a member of the less than one thousand surviving Kets, a Siberian tribe living along the Yenisey River that is believed to be the last remnant of the original inhabitants of south central Siberia and the linguistic ancestors of the Athabaskan peoples of North America.
The first major division of the W's was created when a woman living in the Asian steppes had a 194 mutation in HVR2 around 14,000 years ago. Her descendents would be the W3, W4, W5, and W6 subgroups.
W1 emerged next, around 13,000 years ago with the coding-region 07864 mutation. The W1c was the first W1 subgroup, appearing around 10,000 years ago, developed in the steppe horse culture, and expanded with it from Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan, into India and Europe. Notably, but not exclusively, it is found today among Polish Roma and Ashkenazi Jews. W1e was next, at around the same time, but seems to have entered Europe later, gestating in Anatolia and then entering Europe via Neolithic agriculturalists up the Danube valley. The W1a and W1b subgroups appeared only around 2,000 years ago among the Finno-Ugaritic tribes that expanded from Siberia into Finland, the Baltic, and Scandinavia. So far W1e has been found only in Iraq; and W1f only in Austria and the Czech Republic. The trail that led there is not yet knowable.
W3 appeared around 11,000 years ago in the steppes, and spread with the horse culture into Europe and India. A succession of subgroups (W3a, W3a1, W3a1a) are dfined by a series of coding-region mutations. W3 and W3a descendents migrated to both India and Europe, while W3a and W3a1a are only found in Europe.
W4 is defined by the striking HVR2 motif 143-194-196. It appeared in the central Asian steppes around 12,000 years ago. Descendants migrated to Central India and Europe. The road to Europe follows the spread of neolithic agriculture, from Anatolia, up the Danube to Central Europe.
W5 is the youngest major group, and a uniquely European group, originating only 5500 years ago. Its distribution corresponds to the expansion of Celtic, and then Germanic tribes into Europe.
W6 is identified by the 16192 16223 16292 16325 16519 motif, and 20% of W's are of this subgroup. It originated in Central Asia around 11,000 years ago. Its modern distribution corresponds to the expansion of Indo-European pastoralists, which took place beginning 3700 BC.

You may think that your organization is immune from a sex discrimination lawsuit if you hire a female employee to replace a fired female. But such "free passes" don't automatically exist ... and your supervisors should know it.
As the following case shows, hiring a replacement from the same protected class as the fired employee doesn't provide automatic protection from a discrimination lawsuit. That's especially true if one supervisor hired the original employee and a different supervisor hired the replacement.
Recent case: When Kimberly Miles, a Dell computer salesperson, became pregnant, she felt her supervisor's attitude change. Miles complained that the supervisor raised her sales quota and changed her sales territory after the pregnancy. She took two weeks' leave to have the baby but returned to find she was on probation. She was fired several months later. Her supervisor asked to hire a male replacement, but management insisted that he hire another female.
Miles sued, alleging sex discrimination. A lower court dismissed her case because another woman replaced her. But the appeals court let her case proceed, reasoning that if management decided to replace her with another female after her supervisor wanted to hire a male, she could still make a case of discrimination. In this case, it looked like management was trying to stop a lawsuit by hiring a woman. (Miles v. Dell, No. 04-2500, 4th Cir., 2005)

I am seeking a copy of a very long list I once had that was a guide for writing one's autobiography.
It covered every aspect of one's life.
Such questions as:
What is your earliest memory?
Who are the people you most admire?
What is your favorite activity?
What pets did your have? and on and on.....
I would be most appreciative if someone has a copy of this list which I can no longer

Reading Leaving Class A . . .
"We apply a single Class A bias at about 10% of the push-pull Class A bias."
Any diyer has ever built as shown in Fig.5 . . . ? Or, similar . . . ?
Hi babo
See this post: http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/showt...06#post1572606
I am :) to see other peoples interested finally...

See attached picture of the pcb with the "current displacer" within the blue line area
Hi Fab,
Your project and results are very interesting :cool:
And, thanks for the info about Class XD and Displacer.
BTW, in connection to Fig.5, the additional SE bias, I'm reading Aleph 0s output and its SE CCS bias . . . (for me to try for my F4 hopefully soon) . . . And, I'm wondering where the "ISD" is going to? Do you (or anyone) know about this?
Fig 5 doesn't have an Isd, but referring to that figure, at idle the
current which passes through the constant current source comes from
the current going from the positive supply through the N channel
output, through the current source to the negative supply.
For positive output current, the current source continues to get its
current through the positive output transistor. For negative output
current, it will start to also draw from the load, and at some
sufficiently high negative output current, it will draw entirely from
the load as the positive output shuts off.
2 Attachment(s)
Many say that one picture tells more than 1000words. For me, however, your words are easier than the picture. Thanks for the so kind explanation.
I'm going to try to modify (improve?) my F4 with two things:[list=1][*]Power supply (change in small detail as shown in the attached sketch)[*]Installation of the additional SE bias ccs[/list=1]
Thanks to your explanation, I would keep my confidence with the SE ccs which to be arranged between the output and the negative supply, and just try to decide what type of ccs.
Hoping I could do these soon . . .
Choosing bias - some questions. I have searched, googled, and read lot's of stuff - but so much info on the net (even on this site) is contradictory.
If you can keep the MOSFETs cool, it seems like the current could be cranked way up and still be within the SOA of the outputs, the source resistors may need to be beefed up. Is this a correct statement? where is the limit? Is that limit a point that destruction occurs or does sound quality start to suffer beyond some point?
I built an F5 as designed and an F5 with 2 pairs of outputs. I biased them both higher and lower with forced air cooling for testing. I used the Fairchild devices.
I did this experiment primarily because I am driving speakers which are 2 ohms across some of their operating range and would like to stay in class A as long as possible - I also want to figure out the relationship between bias and sound quality at low output levels. For this experiment heat and current draw are not concerns.
I biased the 2 pair F5 at a slightly higher 1.5 amps per device for a total of 6 amps - it will drive my speakers almost to the voltage limits of the power supply in class A. The mounting tab of the mosfets stay around 52c
to my ears both amplifiers sounded best with the recommended bias current or more. I have a hard time removing volume from the equation though.
I understand that lowering the bias seems to lower sound quality even while still in class A mode - I am not sure if this is true, but seems to be the case, or maybe it is some kind of placebo effect (it's not getting super hot - it must not sound good!)
Originally I was thinking that if I only needed a few watts (say for active tweeter operation) I could lower the bias to lower heat and consumption, but keep the amp in class A operation for the few watts I need - it seems like there is a penalty for that and I would be better to lower the rail voltage to get my desired output for an intended impedance. Is this the case?
same, or if cooling is good, even be reduced. At higher
current, their larger percentage of the voltage drop adds
additional stability to the bias.
The limits are generally the temperature of the junction,
which you can infer from the known wattage and the
temperature of the case.
Typically the limit is 150 deg C, and the thermal resistance
from junction to case is maybe 1 deg C/watt, so the limit
for a device with a case temperature at 100 deg C is
about 50 watts.
Ah - now it makes sense. I didn't realize you could figure out the junction temp from case temp, thermal resistance, and power. I thought it was just some nebulous higher than case temp number. Now I have a whole new spec to get my arms around.
Thanks Again!

Plastic Surgeon Boston – An Abbreviated Guide to Cosmetic Surgery in Boston
Are you looking for a plastic surgeon in Boston? Maybe you're considering a facelift? If you are, there's good news. Boston is home to some of the best cosmetic surgeons, and your options for a face lift or other procedure are literally growing by the day. When you think of a face lift, do you think of a challenging surgical process? Well, there are many different kinds of face lift now, ranging from the traditional surgery to many "liquid face lifts" and non-surgical alternatives. Here's a quick overview of what you can expect when you make the great decision to have cosmetic surgery. Visit the link plastic surgeon Boston to see more.
Most people think of a plastic surgeon Boston specialist as someone who helps you eliminate sagging skin, wrinkles, and other unwanted signs of age. All of this is true. However, now more than ever there are many great ways to do this. A facelift might take the traditional route, which includes surgical adjustment of the face and skin. Or it might be a "liquid face lift", which includes the use of a chemical substance. These chemicals are injected into problem areas in the skin to make the face firmer, healthier, and younger looking. They can be very inexpensive, and return trips are far between.
Some people don't like "general anesthesia," the kind of anesthetic that doctors use when you have to be asleep for a procedure. If this describes you, look for a plastic surgeon who offers both surgical and non-surgical types of facelift Boston patients can choose from. For virtually all "liquid face lifts" you will not have to be asleep. In fact, this kind of procedure can take from minutes to only a few hours and the recovery time is quite small. In a more traditional face lift, results last longer. However, you may deal with some small amount of swelling, bruising, or other side effect. Consult your physician to decide.
Finding a plastic surgeon in Boston can be a fun and exciting prospect. It means that you are taking a next strong step toward a more beautiful you. A facelift is really only the beginning. You can also get other services like scar removal, rhinoplasty, and much, much more. If there's always been some part of you that's not quite how you would like it, why worry and suffer? Boston is a terrific place to get high quality medical care, including plastic and cosmetic surgeries. It starts with getting in touch with the office of a trustworthy and experienced surgeon who is ready to help you.

Princeton fastpitch softball opened the season with an April 10 evening game against Duluth Denfeld, and the Hunters struck the ball well in an 11-4 win over their Section 7AAA partners.
The Hunters got in a game at Irondale earlier that afternoon, and they were warmed up by the time they got to Princeton. Denfeld struck for a run in the top of the first, then they strung together three hits for four more runs in the second to lead 5-0. The Tigers broke through for single runs in the fifth and sixth off Hunter hurler Ashley Taipale, then tacked on two more runs in the bottom of the seventh.
Erica Schramel and Mel Hensley both had two hits for Princeton. Schramel marked the lone RBI, with the other runs scoring on passed balls and a Denfeld boot. Casey Haverinen was very disciplined at the plate and walked all four at-bats. Hensley threw 5.6 innings, striking out four and walking three. Kendra Mueller cleaned up the last 1.3 innings, getting two Ks.
"Mel pitched really well. We had a lot of positives for our first game. We had some simple things to work on, but overall I thought we did well," said Tiger Coach Mandee Allen.

"Any Position" is an exaggeration
By noname
from Willard, Ohio
Although the lamp is described as "any position", it actually only goes up and down. The arms do not have any rotation so the lamp can only shine straight down. The angle of the head is not adjustable at all. I had intended to use the lamp for jewelry making but I am unable to find a position for the lamp to give good lighting for my laptop table.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Great lamp for your draft board
By Mehitabel
from Baytown, Texas 77521
It creates enough light to do major projects on my draft board .This is the prefect answer to my light dilemma. P.S. I love the wide lamp bowl, it throws the light is just the right places, however I do wish the neck of the lamp could turn.

Lights 3 pages of Music on my Organ
By Ellen
from Purvis, MS
It is great because it is tall enough to illuminate the Music rack of my Organ for three pages spread .out but I have to wear a visor to keep the light out of my eyes.Perhaps the shade needs to come down further or if it could be turned side ways to keep the light out of my eyes
Loove it

Good for puzzles or craft tables
By DJP
from Plano, TX
Bought this for my husband because he does large puzzles on a big work table and is always looking for better lighting. While this is not the most attractive light, it works well to light large surfaces and provide good, clear color differentiation. So far his only complaint is that it would be nice if the base swiveled.
Very good

reading light in bedroom;nice soft light;hard to adjust
what we expected; no surprises
By Jay the Reader
from London, Ontario
product used as a reading light in the living room, easy to adjust and can be easily moved. Very stable, heavy base. Included bulb way too bright so looking for a replacement.
Works great!
By Whatever
from Fort Worth, Texas
The best thing about this light is no glare! I have prisms in my glasses so glare is my "enemy". These lights don't create glare on your digital book device/computer/cell phone screen. Turned up towards the ceiling it illuminates the whole living room just like it is daylight! I had been watching for this lamp on sale for awhile so I snapped it up when it went on sale for half price.
