CUMSTANORa. At tbe meeting of tha council held on
Thursday afternoon, the mayor read tbe
following meisago concerning the doings
of tho board of health : '
Gentleman of tho City Council :
At chairman of your board of health I
deem it highly pronur that you should be
maue acquainieu wuu wuas oas uoeu uuuv,
and wbr.l we aro at presont trying to do
to clean up our city. One week alter lb
organir.ttiun of tbe present administra
tion, 1 as mayor istuoa my procla
mation cslltni: upon all cliuont to clean up
their premises. On tbe '11 lU of May I Is
sued another order, nuiuying an
citizens that tho police of the city were
ituthorlzed to make arrests wherever
nuUancvt were found, without further
warning. On tbo2'Jth I Issued a circular
notifying all parties wbota all dead car
ens us, rubbish, etc., should be deposited,
and In fact 1 may say it has been one con
linual trv to clean up tha city for the last
six weeks, and I may say, with a good
deal of luccetl. A great many arrests
havo been made, and a ureal many moro
could be mmle if tho ordinances
wero such as could cover all
the catet. 1 cannot too strongly
urge tha amendment of sections 80, 81 nnd
82 of ordinance No. -1. They ought to be
uiado moro binding ami thoroujn and
made so thut a notification from the board
of health to parties maintaining nuisances
would bo all the evidenco requlrod to
make a caso for tho city. I beg loavo fur
thur to sialo that nil boats arriving hern
tor the last two works have bee'n boardoi
by the chief of police or by ono of his
incers, anu strict ei animation mad
anu snouiu any person be found Hex
on any boats arriving hero the ofllrors
re ordiTeil to call n physician who de
c let u na her it it a caso to order tho
b nt into quarantine or not. This am
braces all ut tho rules in sections I, 2 an 1
.', ordinince No C; and it will bo ss)
that the 1 o rd of braltb has fully enrm- up
1 1 too oruina'icei oi in" c ly in tm par
Ucutur. 'Die mayor has ro power to
tabllsh a quarantine other tbnn stated
tbove, and has no poaer lo employ men
or boards on any given point. Ho i
merely an eiecuti'vo officer, and it such
does the best he can undor tbe ordinances
of tho city. Should the council deem ih
presont powert sumcient, tboy need not
change them; but if, on the other band
tboy think the time bat come to have
some mature deliberations on tha sick
ness now prevailine in Memphis. I honp
they will lose no timo In doing so, and do
it in a quiet, expeditious, and In as tcien
title a manner at possible.
I have tli honor to enclose a circular
sent me yesterdty from Evantvillo, In
diana, and rocommend that it bo printed
in all thn pipers nf the city, and the rlti
iz n be nventlv requested to tupnlv them
pve with a copy. whn printed, of the
said city paper. JOHN wood, Mayor,
Tbe following it tbe circular referred to
by tho mayor :
The board of health have Issued the fol
lowing circular: Cleanliness and ventilation
are ot the utmost importance as health
measures. Accumulations of animal or
vegetable matters, liable to decay, should
bo avoided. Cellar and out-bolises should
be Ireiiucntly and thoroughly clo.ncd, and,
ir need be, disinfected. Wbcre tho water
ot cisterns emits a smell it should bo de
odorized. Privy vault should be disinfected
fufflulcntly olten to prevent any foul
odor. Drains, gutter and alley, where
slop Is thrown, should be UMulected at least
three time n week with common lime or
some of the preparations named below.
Walls and fences 11 plv In absorb moisture
shoiild be freely coated with lime whitewash.
Disinfectant common charcoal finely pow
dered answers well for cisterns. One quart
thrown Into a cistern or ordinary size will
deodorize it lor six we t. Should the
wa't r be very foul, permanganate ol potash
should be used. One ounce fill cents! will
purily a buudrcu-barrel cMeru. Common

the cheapest disinfectant lor privy vault,

but lor odor u-u It Is objectionable because
of Ita tarry smell. One pound will purity a
privy tor tnroe week, r or household use,

desirable because of Its bating no odor.

August, 2004 Declutter Your Digs
When you walk throught the door, do you feel more deflated than comforted? If so, your space might be filled with objects and decor that no longer fit your priorities or your personality, says author Sunny Schlenger in "Organizing for the Sirit" (Jossey-Bass, 2004). Go through your house and assign everything to one of two categories: "me" or "not me." The latter can be donated, given to a friend or thrown out. "Me" items can stay as long as you still enjoy them regularly.

Tube Hybrid 25W Class-A, Opinions?
I'm considering building this very nice hybrid amp, Class-A 25W:
It has balanced inputs, Lundahl input and interstage transformers, Absolutely no capacitor in the signal path
Zero dB feedback and 2-stage current amplification using Hitachi® Mosfets as driver and Sanken® bipolar power transistors.
Any comments on the tube preamp section?
Seems a very nice desing.
Thanks for your comments.
The missing capacitors...
Nice project...but i count 4 capacitors in the signal path in each channel...;)
I don't see the caps
I checked again but I didn't see any caps. Where do you find them?
It looks involved, expensive and redundant. I'm not trashing it but, why go from tube to mosfet to bipolar. Aren't each one of these kind of a contradiction in sound. I mean if you like the sound of tube's then I could almost see the mosfets, but bipolars don't sound like either one of those. They are unique unto themselves aren't they? I am in no way questioning your taste, merely making some observations and asking some questions.:scratch: Maybe I'm too simple at times. Do you know anyone who has heard it? After all, that's what it's all about.
Re: I don't see the caps
The follower of the follower...
For instance if the mosfet output impedance is 1 or 2 Ohms...after the bipolar folower this became the (current gain of the transistor times)..less..
Exe. output mosfet impedance mosfet 2 Ohms... current gain of the transistor 50...the output impedance become 2/50=0,04
Re: The follower of the follower...
How does it sound?
Yes you are right. It is what i'm trying to find and no answer yet. Please any comment on this kind of hybrid desing will be appreciated.
I expect this desing to sound kind like a pathos hybrid, see http://www.pathosacoustics.com/classiceng.htm
I don't mind a complex project, see my dac: http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/showt...threadid=12464
This kind of coupling transfo are used (I think) inside the Nagra preamp...
The Pathos...
But try your project...and repport!!
cheers ;)
I'd say go for it if you're up to the complexity. I use a tube/MOSFET hybrid and I very much enojy it, it's alot simplier (I think the simplier the better, to an extent). So while some may not like hybrids, I can vouch that they can sound great.

[UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE] Zlatan Ibrahimovic is one of the great enigmas of international soccer. His Jekyll-and-Hyde
behavior was evident in Tuesday's UEFA Champions League match as he was sent off in stoppage time of Paris St. Germain's 2-1 win at Valencia for a wild lunge at Mexican defender Andres Guardado that earned him a red card. He received the backing of PSG's Italian coach, Carlo Ancelotti, who said the red card that will keep
Ibra out of the second leg wasn't justified.
PSG was cruising along with a performance that justified its status as the tournament's darkhorse. Javier Pastore set up fellow Argentine Ezequiel Lavezzi in the 10th minute and added a second goal himself two minutes before halftime.
Valencia reduced the deficit when French center back Adil Rami volleyed home in the 90th minute.
Ibrahimovic was then issued a straight red card in the second minute of stoppage time when he lashed at Guardado after losing control of the ball.
The Swede has 21 league goals for PSG, the runaway Ligue 1 leader, but he has a reputation for letting his temper get the best of him. Still, Ancelotti came to Ibra's defense.
"Ibrahimovic's red card was not deserved. I don't understand it. It's unfair," Ancelotti told Canal+. "We conceded a goal and Ibrahimovic got a red card, and I don't think that he deserved it because it was a normal tackle. And so, because of this, we are really disappointed because the play was really good, we played really well, focused on the game, and for this we have to be happy but the end of the game was not good for us. I think it was a normal tackle, nothing special, I was surprised to see a red card."
In Tuesday's other Champions League match, Juventus won, 3-0, over Celtic in Glasgow.
It looked normal from the main camera angle that's used to show the game, and indeed as I watched I was a bit surprised that he was being sent off. But from a camera angle that shows what the AR would have seen, it was clear that he stomped on Guardado's foot. So I'm not surprised Ancelotti thinks what he thinks; his vantage point was not that of the AR.

James W.wrote a review of Swany X-Plode Ski Glove - Men's on February 25, 2013
Not a good ski glove.
I just got back from a ski trip in Vail and both days my fingers went numb. The weather was about 20 degrees and snowing, but I have seen these conditions many times before and never had this problem. The gloves do not handle moisture at all and once they get any amount of wetness they are done for the day. I also agree with the other reviewer that these are very bulky gloves and hard to fit under the cuff of a jacket. I do not recommend these gloves.

Taipei - Taiwan's leading smartphone maker HTC said on Saturday it would appeal a ruling by a United States trade body which found that it had infringed two patents held by US giant Apple.
Apple filed a complaint against HTC in March 2010 with the US International Trade Commission (ITC) accusing the Taiwanese firm of violating ten patents related to the iPhone.
A preliminary finding on Friday reportedly said that HTC had violated two of the patents. HTC maintains none of the ten were infringed.
"We are highly confident we have a strong case for the ITC appeals process and are fully prepared to defend ourselves using all means possible," said HTC general counsel Grace Lei in a statement.
"We strongly believe we have alternate solutions in place for the issues raised by Apple. We look forward to resolving this case," she said, without elaborating.
Other patent infringement cases
The ITC has already ruled in a separate case that Apple infringed on patents held by HTC subsidiary S3 Graphics, according to the Taiwanese company.
As the legal battle between the rivals escalated, Apple filed a new compliant against HTC with the ITC on Monday involving patents related to iPads and iPhones. It has also lodged a suit against HTC in a US District Court in Delaware.
HTC touts its own brand of smartphones and also makes handsets for a number of leading US companies, including the Nexus One unveiled by Apple rival Google.
Patent lawsuits are a regular occurrence among technology giants. Apple is currently being sued by Nokia for patent infringement, and has fired back a countersuit against the Finnish mobile phone giant.
Last week Apple also hit back at an infringement claim by Samsung, calling for the South Korean company to be investigated.
Get them HTC
When Steve Jobs's helath fails I gurantee he will invent an iSuit that leaves him looking just like Darth Vader. Perfect attire for ruling his evil little empire.

The trouble with small things is that they are easy to ignore. If the big things get hammered (96 percent of the old-growth redwood forests have been cut, though most of the remaining stands are protected), what hope is there for the small ones? How do you convince people—especially those living in regions of highly diverse and threatened species—about the importance of saving the shrinking store of life?
In 1989 the Washington, D.C.-based organization Conservation International (CI) turned to the idea of biodiversity hotspots. To earn the label, regions had to support at least 1,500 endemic plant species and to have lost 70 percent of their primary habitat. The bad news: The California Floristic Province made the list in 1990.
"The original list had ten hotspots," says Michael Hoffmann, a biologist with CI. "Now we're up to 34. We've recently recognized that Japan has a diverse flora, and the Ethiopian Highlands also needed to be on the list because of its rare Afromontane habitats and species."
The hotspot approach exerts a strong influence in setting global conservation priorities, focusing public attention and strengthening the resolve of governments. It has helped attract an estimated 750 million dollars to the conservation cause, according to CI.
CI's hotspots often, though not always, overlap with regions selected by other groups for targeted effort, including the 218 Endemic Bird Areas defined by BirdLife International and the Global 200 Ecoregions defined by the World Wildlife Fund. Conservationists are working to increase the overlap and avoid missing important regions, recognizing that the best way to save threatened species is to protect the places where they live.
Identifying irreplaceable habitats and the species they hold is one thing; protecting them is another. On the ground, conservationists run headlong into questions of local politics, economic stability, and human need.

How Peter the bear came to life one night at the museum
You have to put yourself in the shoes of that nightwatchman, really. We'd have all probably called the police in the same circumstances. There you are minding your own business in the wee small hours. You can hear a pin drop.
All around, exhibits of the Ulster Museum take their breather from the daily stares of the curious, and not so curious, visitors. It's a routine night, long before Hollywood and Ben Stiller thought such a scenario could be turned into a blockbuster movie.
Under a canvas, the newest recruit to the exhibition is awaiting the attention of the taxidermists. It's Peter the polar bear, dead just 12 hours previously. The museum is hoping he'll be the new star of the show. Those ceramics and earthenware pots in their neglected corners won't stand a chance.
But something is wrong. There are noises coming from under the sheet, stirrings. Nervously, the nightwatchman approaches. Another movement, the canvas appears to lift. It's full-on terror now.
There's only one thing to do. Call the police. Peter the polar bear appears to be very much alive and is likely to be pretty upset at the inconvenience of all this.
The police, used to very different kinds of calls in those days, race to the museum. Did you know this story? I didn't until I took a friend and his fed-up five-year-old down to the museum one recent, drab Sunday.
The kid ceased his morning-long gurning as he feasted his eyes on Peter, dumbstruck as thousands of similar five-year-olds have been down through the decades by the beast's majestic size and, even now, promise of power.
I watched other children drawn like moths to flames to Peter, walk around him, begin to get some appreciation that we are by no means the most beautiful thing on this planet. Perhaps they'll even ask questions of their parents as to why Peter's descendants are now so scarce.
He's seen it all before has Peter, he's pretty used to being king here, no-one's gonna threaten his environment. This is not the polar ice cap.
He still looks magnificent, his coat has a lovely sheen, he looks imperious, not half-famished and desperate like today's versions you see captured by cameramen in helicopters. As well as an icon of the global diversity we dare not lose, Peter serves as another symbol closer to home.
Back to our story. You see, Peter died aged 30 at Belfast Zoo in 1972, the bloodiest year of our conflict. But he expired on an extremely rare day in Northern Ireland at that time. A slow news day.
That night at the museum, Peter had begun his decomposition phase and his limbs began to stiffen. What the nightwatchman had heard were gases escaping his body and the movement was the onset of rigor mortis. No wonder the poor man was terrified.
The world's Press pack at the Europa Hotel, with little mindless mayhem and carnage to report on, sped en masse down to the museum. The story of the polar bear that came back to life went around the world, a lovely little tale that, for the briefest of time, showed Northern Ireland could be as deliciously, instead of dangerously, bonkers a place as most of the normal world. Peter became a sort of posthumous hero to a people weary of the grimness of it all.
It's worth heading down to the Ulster Museum to say hello to him some time. For those of you who remember those days, maybe give him a nod of thanks for being different.

Tile Counsel
I just finished reading your article in the Phoenix newspaper ("Wordstock Nation," Dewey Webb, March 11) and it was such a masterpiece I just had to write and tell you so. I always get irritated when reading such articles because they always make us Scrabble fanatics sound like weirdos.
Yours did also, but it was written so well and so respectfully that I wasn't the least bit irritated. The truth is, we are weirdos! So bravo, bravo.
One subject you did not touch on was the issue of accepting a Universal Word Source--a list of words acceptable to all English-language Scrabble players around the globe. It's the hot topic of conversation these days.

Very nice job, Dewey. Cute gimmick in the photo captions. Just one small correction: Where you describe "fishing" as exchanging a tile into the bag, much more often it simply means playing one or two tiles onto the board, since you can usually score 10 points for playing them, and must take zero for exchanging.

Taken for a Ride
The article on Frank Leyvas was very intriguing ("Fare Game," Chris Farnsworth, March 11). I hope that he gets everything he has asked for in his lawsuit. He should have been given a heads up about what was going to happen by the police.

Publish or Perish
Let me add to the Flash's "Mean Streets" (March 11).
Just as alcohol and driving are a bad safety combination, so is mixing politics and safety when that involves the safety of taxpayer-subsidized business profits. Also when traffic safety is a phony reason to eliminate criticism of city government.
This was the case when Phoenix outlawed homeless newspaper street sales. This was confirmed by Judge Katz in his Grapevine decision when he said the reason for the law ". . . may in fact be motivated by a desire to keep homeless people and undesirables out of public view rather than to make our streets safer." Add attorney Joe Abodeely saying, "This is a subterfuge, a ruse to violate the First Amendment of the Constitution."
Since the elimination of the Grapevine, free speech and free press for traffic safety, Phoenix has become one of the deadliest places in the U.S. to drive. This is like Inspector Clouseau, while citing a blind organ grinder for a lack of a city permit, proceeding to hold open a getaway car door for bank robbers. Funny for a Pink Panther movie, but not for death on city streets.

Where It's Art
I wanted to thank you for your recent article "The Athlete and the Aesthete" (Matthew Doig, March 4). It is refreshing to see art being covered that is not being presented in the comfortable format within the expected art institution.
In Jake Harman's work, it is clear that artists are having to approach their work and their audience in different ways. Artists are no longer able to participate, nor are they interested in participating, in the limited venue offered by galleries and museums as their option to continue their careers. They are searching out more alternative approaches to art and ways to include the public into their journey. In your support of Harman's work, it is evident that New Times is offering the public new ways to interpret and experience art.
Art is more than objects to walk up to and view, and then walk away and decide if it is "good" or "bad." Art is about the experience and the lives of the people who are willing to engage with the work. Your article gave your readers the ability to experience an artist, his efforts and passion along with his work.
Please continue to cover more artwork that is being done in the Valley that continues to address the limitations placed on art. These events are not easy to find but will appear as performance art events and public engagements with art typically not found within the art viewing platform. However, starting at ASU and the art program is a good way to tap into this group of artists who are expressing themselves in different ways, like Harman.

Gnawing Questions
In his response to Michael Kiefer's February 4 article "Indian Stew" (Letters, March 11), Professor Armelagos refers to the "disgusting" display ("prehistoric artifacts with modern odds and ends") pictured in the article in order to bring Professor Turner's motivation into question. It is, instead, Professor Armelagos' motivation that I must question.
To be offended or shocked by the pictorial association of human skeletal remains with that of a can of Campbell's soup is certainly one's prerogative. It is not one's prerogative, however, to use the perceived questionable taste of a picture (a subjective observation) as a basis upon which to question an entire body of academic work (an objective observation). This type of broad, generalized criticism is a powerful tool by which to influence those who may not have the inclination to look deeper into the details themselves.
Is Professor Turner interested in a scientific understanding of this issue? Based upon examination of the body of work and personal interaction with Professor Turner, my answer is yes.
Does the subject matter startle and disturb some people? Certainly. Is this the motivation behind the work? Certainly not. The evidence should be viewed solely on its own merit, for Professor Turner seeks not to shock people with the subject of his work but instead happens to work with a subject that shocks people.

Taking Cover
While on a pragmatic level I can appreciate The Scones' financial needs in terms of their decision to go for the well-paying gigs by performing mostly covers with a few originals sprinkled in ("Sticks and Scones," Ted Simons, March 4), one of Jeff Owens' comments was telling, to say the least.
"The originals are infinitely more important . . . but we've got to make a living in the meantime. There are very few bands that can make a living doing original music in this town."
Sorry, pal, but you'll learn soon enough that you can't have it both ways. It's a matter of perception versus reality: If the public thinks you're a cover band, you're a cover band, and it's hard as hell to break that image once you've been locked into it. (Sometimes moving away to where no one's heard of you is the only remedy.)
Before Sgt. Pepper was released, rock 'n' roll bands were still classified as entertainers, and there was no stigma in performing the covers of the day at teen dances. In fact, it was expected. Once the Beatles issued their magnum opus, however, the focus shifted toward musicians-as-artists, and from then on, your worth was measured in terms of songwriting, arranging and how well you crafted your tunes in the studio.
This remains true, and while there's no shame in having a good Puritan work ethic and a desire to put food on the table for your loved ones, to earn any lasting respect as a musician outside the confines of some rarefied local club scene, eventually you have to make the decision: Do I want to be an entertainer or an artist?
If you choose the former, fine; be the best that you can be. If the latter, don't do it halfway, or in stages; I hate to use the term "quit whining and pay some dues," but that's what most of the great bands who made their marks did.

Yes, I know that the Beatles played four sets of mostly covers every night before getting their big break, but I submit there's a fundamental difference between performing seven nights a week in front of the toughest audiences in Hamburg, and playing the Tempe coffee house and sports bar circuit. Times have changed, too; do you want to work up through the ranks and win the critical respect of the media, or do you always want your motives as an opportunist to be questioned when you do try to break through with original material? Again, it's perception versus reality: There's a qualitative difference between a cover band and one that can whip out some well-chosen covers at the end of a show to blow the lid off the joint.
I have a friend back East who put out a record of his originals in the Eighties, funded from his residency in a local lounge where he played covers and requests. It didn't do anything, but he had good material and a promising future as a songwriter. Sadly, 15 years later, he has no urge to write music anymore, and while he makes a great living and says he's satisfied with his lot.
For some reason I can't help but think of a tenured but ultimately frustrated professor who never broke out of academia and now can't imagine how he would have done so in the first place. This friend will be playing Eagles and Christopher Cross covers until he dies. Here's hoping that The Scones grasp the inherent tension of the position they're in, that they do well with their forthcoming CD of original tunes, and that they aren't still playing Crowded House and Echo and the Bunnymen come the year 2015.

Green makes first big league start at first base
By Adam McCalvy / MLB.com
Counsell has no plans to return to field
SAN FRANCISCO -- Alex Gonzalez had barely made it off the field Saturday after suffering an apparently serious right knee injury before the Craig Counsell questions started rolling in. Might the popular Counsell come out of retirement to help the Brewers get through their wave of medical maladies?Counsell said the thought crossed his mind, but the answer for now is no. "I don't have plans to play," he said. Counsell, 41, was hired over the winter as a special assistant to general manager Doug Melvin and has been working on a myriad of projects, the beginnings of a possible future career as a GM. He has not formally filed retirement papers with the Players' Association, but said players rarely do until they are much more advanced in age. Because he knows shortstop so well, Counsell was particularly sad to see Gonzalez go down. "Everybody knew he was pretty good on defense, but it was fun to watch him play shortstop," Counsell said. "He can really play."
Brewers reserves now have starting roles
SAN FRANCISCO -- A handful of Brewers reserves suddenly find themselves playing a more prominent role for a team that says it still has postseason aspirations.Veteran Cesar Izturis is Milwaukee's new starting shortstop after Alex Gonzalez was lost Saturday to a right knee injury. And Travis Ishikawa will get significant starts at first base with Mat Gamel sidelined by a knee injury of his own. In the pitching department, Marco Estrada has already moved from the bullpen to the starting rotation to replace injured left-hander Chris Narveson. The changes are a big test of the Brewers' depth. "That's what I'm here for," Izturis said. "I feel sorry for Alex and for the team. He was a big part of the team so far." Gonzalez will undergo an MRI scan on Monday in Milwaukee. His departure from Saturday's loss marked the fourth straight game in which the Brewers lost a player to injury. Three of those players landed on the disabled list. "I've never seen something like this," Izturis said. "I've been in this game for a while." Izturis has dealt with injuries himself, most recently a right elbow injury that cost him most of last season with the Orioles. The year before, Izturis started 142 games for Baltimore at shortstop. He signed a Minor League deal with Milwaukee over the winter and won a job as a backup infielder. Now he'll adjust back to a starting role, with Roenicke planning to rest Izturis when he deems it necessary. "I think I'm ready for it," Izturis said.
Last call
Brewers principal owner Mark Attanasio indicated he was "getting closer" to contract extensions for both GM Doug Melvin and manager Ron Roenicke. The topic has been under discussion since March. If the Brewers go outside the organization for a first baseman, the most well-known free agent may be Derrek Lee. FOXSports.com's Ken Rosenthal speculates that Lee would seek a contract similar to Johnny Damon's deal with the Indians for $1.25 million plus $1.4 million in incentives. The Brewers formally made the roster moves on Sunday they preliminarily announced the day before. Alex Gonzalez and Carlos Gomez were placed on the 15-day disabled list. Taylor Green was called up from Triple-A Nashville. Shortstop Edwin Maysonet's contract was selected from Nashville. To make room for Maysonet on the 40-man roster, the Brewers shifted Mat Gamel to the 60-day DL.
