Nepal Population: 29,033,914NO VISITORS FROM HERE YET!
Back to Flag Counter Overview
|During the late 18th-early 19th centuries, the principality of Gorkha united many of the other principalities and states of the sub-Himalayan region into a Nepalese Kingdom. Nepal retained its independence following the Anglo-Nepalese War of 1814-16 and the subsequent peace treaty laid the foundations for two centuries of amicable relations between Britain and Nepal. (The Brigade of Gurkas continues to serve in the British Army to the present day.) In 1951, the Nepali monarch ended the century-old system of rule by hereditary premiers and instituted a cabinet system that brought political parties into the government. That arrangement lasted until 1960, when political parties were again banned, but was reinstated in 1990 with the establishment of a multiparty democracy within the framework of a constitutional monarchy. An insurgency led by Maoists broke out in 1996. The ensuing 10-year civil war between Maoist and government forces witnessed the dissolution of the cabinet and parliament and the re-assumption of absolute power by the king in 2002. A peace accord in 2006 led to the promulgation of an interim constitution in 2007. Following a nationwide Constituent Assembly (CA) election in 2008, the newly formed CA declared Nepal a federal democratic republic, abolished the monarchy, and elected the country's first president. After the CA failed to draft a constitution by a May 2012 deadline set by the Supreme Court, then-Prime Minister Baburam BHATTARAI dissolved the CA. Months of negotiations ensued until March 2013 when the major political parties agreed to create an interim government headed by then-Chief Justice Khil Raj REGMI with a mandate to hold elections for a new CA. Elections were held in November 2013, in which the Nepali Congress won the largest share of seats in the CA and in February 2014 formed a coalition government with the second place Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist-Leninist and with Nepali Congress President Sushil KOIRALA as prime minister. Nepal's new constitution came into effect in September 2015.

Nepal is among the poorest and least developed countries in the world, with about one-quarter of its population living below the poverty line. Nepal is heavily dependent on remittances, which amount to as much as 29% of GDP. Agriculture is the mainstay of the economy, providing a livelihood for almost 70% of the population and accounting for about one-third of GDP. Industrial activity mainly involves the processing of agricultural products, including pulses, jute, sugarcane, tobacco, and grain. Nepal has considerable scope for exploiting its potential in hydropower, with an estimated 42,000 MW of commercially feasible capacity. Nepal and India signed trade and investment agreements in 2014 that increase Nepal's hydropower potential, but political uncertainty and a difficult business climate have hampered foreign investment. Nepal was hit by massive earthquakes in early 2015, which damaged or destroyed infrastructure and homes and set back economic development. Political gridlock in the past several years and recent public protests, predominantly in the southern Tarai region, have hindered post-earthquake recovery and prevented much-needed economic reform. Additional challenges to Nepal's growth include its landlocked geographic location, persistent power shortages, and underdeveloped transportation infrastructure.

text: Born in Atlanta, this rapper and producer moved to Chicago with his mother when he was 3 years old. He's considered to be one of the most commercially successful "back-pack" rappers. West has said he was largely influenced by Wu-Tang member RZA. The first major label song he produced was Jay-Z's "This Can't Be Life," featuring West's signature sound of taking old, soul samples, speeding them up, and adding his own drum sounds and other instruments. In 2001, he broke out as a producer, largely because his sound was all over Jay-Z's critically-acclaimed "The Blueprint." In October 2002, West survived a car accident after falling asleep at the wheel of his car. He recorded "Through The Wire" about two weeks after the accident with his jaws wired shut. It was featured on his debut album, "College Dropout," released in February 2004, on Jay-Z's Roc-A-Fella Records. The Grammy-nominated album sold more than 3 million copies. In August 2005, West released his highly-anticipated follow up "Late Registration," which sold more than 860,000 in its first week. In September 2007 he released "Graduation," which sold more than 950,000 copies in its first week.

Nigerian Scam or 419 Scam
Are you tired of getting Nigerian Scam mails?
This is a kind of spam that could - in the worst case - get you killed. In the best case, if you fall for one these criminals spam mails, you will "just" lose your money. So it's best to stay far away from their spam and not to fall for their lures.
The lure is almost always the same. The promise of a large amount of money in return for next to nothing. Don't fall for it - it's a scam to trick you out of money.
I bet you have received tons of this type of spam mails. I certainly have over the last few years. In the beginning one of the more popular types was avariation of the same theme (they are obviously not a clever bunch - once you've seen one, you've seen them all).
The standard-theme was often somewhat like this:
"Hello Sir
I am contacting you to help release a large sum of money (often millions upon millions of dollars), that due to my clients death has been locked from my access. If you help, you will get a fair percentage of the money" ... and so forth.
The only hatch was, that in order to release all of themoney, one had to transfer a pretty fair amount of money and give over ones own account number. And guess what? Once the necessary funds were transferred to help release the unexpected monetary godsend, thevictim never again heard from the criminals. Until the next spam mail of the type that is.
Very popular in the beginning were mails telling about dictators in, for example, thebanana republics around the world. Hence the popular nickname The Nigerian Scam - although the real name is the 419 scam.
Later cases involved demands of having to show up in the mentioned country to personally pick up the cash. Quite a few people have been taken hostage on that account and since released for huge ransoms. A few have even been killed - just because they were too eager to make a quick buck.
Right after the arrest of Saddam Hussein in Iraq was made public, I got several mails from his "daughters" who asked me for help in releasing his stashed away fortune. Clever twist since the whole world had heard about all of the money the dictator had funneled out of the country - and maybe some even fell for it.
One of the newer types of this kind of malicious spam is the lottery scam. You get a mail telling you, that you have participated in some kind of international lottery based on Internet mail-addresses. Typically the office sending the mail is based in Europe, but the number to call to claim the prize is an overtaxed phone number. So even if you react, you will loose money. And of course again you have to pay out money to actually "get" the money.
There are many other variations of this kind of spam, but one thing is for sure - they all have the same purpose; to get your money. So beware of this kind of spam. It can be costly if you fall for it.
How to avoid this kind of spam or getting tricked? Use your common sense and remember that nothing is for free. So if you are suddenly offered large amounts of money, you should be very careful.
Nigerian scammers made fun of
Though the Nigerian scammers are definitely not a laughing matter, there is still loads of fun about this type of spammer. One of the more funny sites, that pop up if you use the search string "nigerian scam fun" on Google is www.ebolamonkeyman.com
There are heaps of other sites, that are giving these spammers what they rightly deserve: A cup of their own medicine. And much of it is outright hilarious.
The site mentioned is thus cluttered with pictures of the actual scammers. But only because their intended victims were on to their ploy and demanded a picture of the scammer as proof of the story.In these pictures, they are always seen holding a sign with a handwritten text.
The funny part is really the texts and the intended victims imagination in creating the texts to be put on the signs. Like the scammer holding up a sign saying "I am Dildo". Quite obviously these scammer/spammers have not the great knowledge of the English language. A fact most will notice already upon receiving the initial spam mail.
Besides loads and loads of funny pictures of the idiots, there are a lot of fun comments and stories from the readers of the popular site. And yes, even the possibility to buy (online) - among other artifacts and wear - t-shirts and mugs with some of the better captions/pictures.
Apart from other fun stuff on the site, I have to mention a small test, where you can quickly see if you might yourself be a Nigerian 419 scammer. Absolutely good humor.
I should mention a lot other sites, but by now I'm laughing so hard, that I have to stop now. Check out the site and try a further search on Google (or your favorite search-site). But prepare for stomachaches from all the laughing.
Nice to see spammers getting it right back :)

WAMM—It's About Time
The WAMM Master Chronosonic
This video previews the long awaited WAMM, Master Chronosonic™, Dave Wilson's Magnum Opus. Nearly five years of research, development, and thought have gone into the new WAMM. Now, as a preface to its launch in a few months, we offer up this small homage to Dave, a visionary who has indelibly changed the way we all think about music and its reproduction.
Sasha DAW — honoring the past, heralding the future
As we launch the latest Sasha, we at Wilson Audio can't help but think of Dave's original WATT/Puppy, which was first launched nearly 30 years ago, and which is the lineal descendant of the first Sasha. The DAW designation for this Sasha—DAW for Dave Andrew Wilson—is a nomenclative homage to the man who started it all. Introducing the Sasha DAW, a loudspeaker that simultaneously honors the past and heralds the future
Sasha DAW Global Launch
We're excited to announce our latest loudspeaker design, Sasha DAW. Sasha DAW's Global Launch will take place on October 25, 2018.
Dave Wilson's Tribute and Memorial
For those of you who were unable to attend, we provide this video of Dave's Wilson's tribute and memorial.
Wilson would also like to thank all those who have sent kind notes, written homages, and for all the kind phone calls and myriad gestures so many of you have extended to us at Wilson and to the Wilson Family we are truly grateful. Thank you.
Alexandria XLF in the Recording World
In this video, the CEO and Chairman of Warner/Chappel talks about how his Wilson Audio Alexandria XLFs aid and affect his professional work. As the principal of a major record label, he interacts with the top professionals in the music industry on a daily basis. This is an experienced and demanding group, but despite this, nearly everyone who walks through his office door is not prepared for what they see—and hear—there.
TuneTot Ecosystem
TuneTot is but one element within an ecosystem populated with custom, a la carte tools and accessories (purchased separately) designed to maximize TuneTot's cosmetic beauty and musical performance in a wide variety of applications. Not content with designing a simple "bookshelf" loudspeaker, Wilson's Special Applications Engineering team has, once again, redefined what is possible for these acoustically hostile installations.
Announcing TuneTot
On May 10, 2018 beginning at 12:00 noon Mountain Standard Time, Wilson's celebrations of TuneTot will begin. Wilson has chosen to launch its new "Tot" in a very special way. Watch Wilson's website as well as your favorite North American Wilson Dealer's social media for launch activities. Also tune in for very select Media Reports covering this landmark loudspeaker.
WAMM Master Chronosonic—Magnum Opus
In this video, Dave Wilson speaks about his early research on the time domain, and how this poorly understood phenomenon affects the way we hear music. Dave also reveals his inspiration for designing loudspeakers—the passion that has been central to his designs during a career spanning more than thirty-five years. Please celebrate with us this small homage of Dave's remarkable life work, which, as it relates to loudspeakers, now culminates in his Magnum Opus, the WAMM Master Chronosonic.
Alexia Series 2—A Classic Reborn
How do you update a classic? By almost any measure, the Alexia has been one of Wilson's most successful products. The physicians' maxim of Primum non nocere (first do no harm) certainly applies here. On the other hand, Wilson's technology has continued to evolve and advance in the areas of drivers, crossover analysis and design, time-alignment accuracy, and composite materials research. Research and development for the WAMM Master Chronosonic was particularly fruitful. Daryl Wilson was determined to incorporate some of these new technologies and strategies into the Alexia platform to further advance its remarkable musicality and resolution. But, at the same time, he was determined to preserve Alexia's salient appeal. In Wilson's latest video, we provide you the first glimpse into the Alexia Series 2.
Introducing Yvette
With the success of Wilson's large systems—starting with Dave Wilson's original WAMM, and followed by the X-1 Grand SLAMM, the Alexandria, and most recently, the Alexx, it may be easy to forget the Wilson that most indelibly left its mark on the industry: the WATT/Puppy.
Wilson's All-new Alexx
"Provenance"—in the art world refers to the place of origin or history of a particular piece of art. Provenance has special meaning to Wilson Audio, in this case in exploring Wilson's latest foray into the large speaker category. In this video, Dave and Daryl Wilson discuss the Alexx, its new technologies and architecture
Announcing Alexx
Wilson is excited to announce its third all-new loudspeaker in as many years. The Alexx will be slotted above the Alexia and below the Alexandria XLF in Wilson's lineup. Like the Alexia and the Sabrina that preceded it, Alexx will push the proverbial envelope in the areas of coherence, dynamic contrast, and musicality for its category.
The Measure Of Sabrina
How to take the measure of Wilson Audio's newest—and smallest—floor standing loudspeaker? As this video suggests, by comparing it directly to the Alexandria XLF. While size and complexity are the most obvious differences, more telling are the traits the two loudspeakers share in common.
Sabrina - Wilson Audio's newest floor-standing loudspeaker
Wilson Audio's newest floor-standing loudspeaker. Sabrina is a pure distillation of the Wilson approach to speaker design. A reflection of the original WATT/Puppy, a speaker whose size belies its performance. Perhaps counter-intuitively, as our technologies become more sophisticated, so has our ability to distill the essence of great sound—so that neither size, nor simplicity of design become predictors of performance.
Announcing Wilson Audio Alida
Special Applications projects have a illustrious history at Wilson Audio. In 1983, Dave Wilson needed a small location monitor for the series of recordings he was doing at the time. Finding nothing suitable on the market, he went into his laboratory and built the original WATT®. Alida is the latest Special Applications product from Wilson Audio. It was designed to offer the timbrel neutrality, dynamic response, soundstage depth, and transparency of floor-standing Wilson loudspeakers, but to do so in the ext
Wilson Audiophile's Music of Chopin
These words, written by Chopin after the fall of Warsaw to the Russians, seem as relevant to us in the latter part of the twentieth century as they did in 1831. Poland's struggle for freedom and dignity strikes a common chord in all of humanity, and this perhaps best explains the continuing rise of Chopin's popularity in an age which reviles romanticism. Friedrich Nietzsche spoke for many people of all nations when he was stirred to say: "I am too much of a Pole not to prefer Chopin's music to all other mus
The Violin Bow
In the second video in our series, Dave Wilson had the opportunity to spend time with Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra violinist Wilfried Hedenborg during the orchestra's recent North American tour. In a discussion of the bow's importance to the sound a violinist produces, Hedenborg relates the captivating tale about his attempt to make a copy of a bow borrowed from his teacher and mentor, Ruggiero Ricci.
Musicians and Wilson Loudspeakers, Pt. 1
This video is the first in a multi-part series that focuses on the stories of professional musicians who use Wilson Audio loudspeakers. This inaugural installment was made from footage of an impromptu interview with Peter Poltun, conducted by Dave Wilson and filmed by Daryl Wilson during their visit to Vienna in the Fall of 2012.
Winds of War and Peace and Center Stage
In this candid interview with Dave Wilson, he shares his experiences of recording of the 2 albums: "Winds of War and Peace", and "Center Stage". Amazingly, these 2 albums were recorded in 1 day, and the band had NO time to rehearse
Sasha Series-2: Technology and Features
Dave Wilson imagined the original WATT/Puppy as a compact and simple loudspeaker that could provide a degree of musical enjoyment rivaling—and even surpassing—much larger systems. This seemingly simple idea redefined how the audio community viewed high-end loudspeakers. Twenty-five years later, as we begin shipping Wilson Audio's latest iteration of the successor to the classic WATT/PUPPY, we thought it might be a good time to review how far we've come. In this video, Dave and Daryl Wilson outline the d
Sasha Series-2: The Legacy Continues
The role that Sasha W/P plays in the world of high-end loudspeakers, like that of the WATT/Puppy platform that preceded it, is best understood as the evolution of an idea born a quarter century ago: the idea that a compact loudspeaker can produce a degree of musical enjoyment rivaling much larger systems. Sasha Series-2 now incorporates the latest technology derived from Wilson's own state-of-the-art loudspeakers, to raise our best-selling product to a new plane of performance.
Announcing Wilson Audio's Newest Loudspeaker
For the past quarter century, one iconic product has been emblematic of our quest to employ experience and technology to advance the state of the art in compact loudspeakers, while still honoring the brilliance of the original design. Now we're about to raise the performance bar once again...
The Alexandria XLF at RMAF
At this year's Rocky Mountain Audio Fest, Wilson Audio demonstrated the system that represents their state-of-the-art: Alexandria XLF supported by two Thor's Hammer Subwoofers. With program material including DSD transfers of some of Dave Wilson's legendary recordings from the 1980s. A video recap of the undertaking, from setup to the reactions of those who were there.
Announcing Wilson Audiophile Recordings
Widely considered by critics as the finest loudspeakers ever built, the WAMM and WATT were originally designed expressly as professional references for the evaluation of: master tapes, test pressings, associated equipment, as well as basic research into the psychoacoustics of the listening phenomenon.
Duette Series-2 and Hostile Environments
Duette is a unique product in the audio world: a loudspeaker engineered to provide state of the art audiophile performance in installations typically anathema to good sound, namely when the speaker must be placed near a wall, either on stands or in a bookshelf or cabinet. Now Duette Series 2 further refines and perfects that objective, with features such as a new stand with an integrated crossover, new cabinet design and bracing for better resonance control, and tweeter technology derived from Alexia. The d
Introducing Duette Series 2
In 2006, Wilson Audio designed Duette to be a problem solver, a speaker that could be comfortably installed in a wide variety of difficult environments. With Duette Series 2, our design mandate was simpler: create the best compact speaker. Period. While still most at home in near-boundary installations, the Series 2 has been simplified, its essence distilled into a purer, performance-oriented form. Introducing Duette Series 2.
The Guild
The most productive workplaces have a culture that attracts and holds people most in tune with that environment. In this candid piece, some of Wilson Audio's employees reflect on what keeps them engrossed in building loudspeakers after a decade or more with the company.
An Audiophile's Journey
Most of us can trace our passion for reproduced music to a specific experience—that moment in time when we discovered the ability of speakers and electronics to convey the emotional power of a musical performance. This is the story of an audiophile who traces his history back to that time of discovery, and tells us where that led him—and the effect the journey has had on his family.
I Can See Music Everywhere
This is a story of friendship, tradition, and the power of shared music. How did an experience listening to classical music in a professor's living room at the University of the South in Sewanee Tennessee change a young student's life? An experience so indelible that forty years later it galvanized him to spearhead the creation of a campus listening library with 40,000 recordings, showcased in a million-dollar room with state-of-the-art audio. What impact does this unique academic facility have on the lives
Alexia - Concept To Reality
Alexia began with a simple question: What would happen if we merged the time-domain accuracy and driver technology of the Alexandria XLF with a form factor similar to the Sasha? But as Wilson's engineers began development of Alexia, they quickly realized that as seemingly simple as this idea was, its real-world implementation, if possible at all, would require all of Dave Wilson and his team's resources, ingenuity, and engineering expertise. In this movie, we follow the journey of Wilson's engineering team,
Announcing Alexia
It's not often that Wilson Audio announces an all-new loudspeaker, so when we do, it is always surrounded by a sense of occasion. Announcing Alexia. In terms of price point, it is positioned between Sasha W/P and MAXX. Alexia's form factor is similar to the Sasha W/P, even sharing its room-friendly footprint. But Alexia is much more ambitious and complex, inheriting much of its technology and overall sonic personality from Wilson's flagship, the Alexandria XLF.
The Choice
The Choice explores a simple question: Is there intrinsic merit in accomplishing a task to the best of one's ability? Certainly this idea pervades the culture of Wilson Audio and is rooted in the character of its founder. It finds expression in the daily efforts of the craftsmen who thrive in this environment, precisely because they love the challenge of doing their best work. And it is manifest in the myriad detailed ways Wilson products themselves exhibit the dedication to excellence for its own sake, and
The Observer and the XLF
From his earliest days as a loudspeaker designer, Dave has been transfixed by this observation: Why don't loudspeakers sound more like live, unampflified music? The Alexandria XLF project was launched as the most unrestrained effort to date to close the distance between live and reproduced sound. Despite the obvious fact that a loudspeaker will ultimately be judged by how it sounds, many designers instinctively devalue listening as an objective design tool. As a result, these loudspeaker designers reject th
Alexandria XLF: Idealism and Technology
Dave is an idealist, but he is also a disciplined empiricist. Dave the idealist insists that no detail is too small to be scrutinized. Dave the empiricist knows that it's all too easy to be seduced by the technological promise of a given part. See how these two defining characteristics played out in Wilson's new flagship loudspeaker.
Announcing the Alexandria XLF
Dave Wilson believes in the end result. He has spent a lifetime refining the art and science of the empirical approach. Dave knows that engineers and technicians are often seduced by exotic high-tech elements that potentially make up a product. The technical veracity of any given part, no matter how it appears on paper, is only as good as the experience it produces. For Dave, the experience is everything.
provenance (n): a term primarily used to describe the origin (and hence, the authenticity) of an artifact or piece of art. In manufacturing, the term implies the notion that certain products embody the culture and place they are made, and would lose that essential character if they were designed or built somewhere else. Few would dispute that a Ferrari is a quintessentially Italian automobile. So what is the provenance of a Wilson loudspeaker?
Modus Operandi
An impressionistic look inside the Wilson factory at our loudspeakers being built. It's a process that presents a daily challenge to the craftspeople involved--realizing the only hope of preserving the pure ideal of the loudspeaker as it undergoes metamorphosis into physical product lies in flawless execution at every stage of manufacture.
Music Matters at Definitive Audio, February 9, 2011
Wilson Audio participated in the 6th annual Music Matters event at Definitive Audio in Seattle, WA. It was an evening devoted to two channel music reproduction, and an opportunity to build community with listeners and manufacturers who have never lost their passion for the possibilities of high-end music systems. Wilson paired their Sasha loudspeakers with Audio Research, who debuted the prototype of their new Reference 150 amplifier.
Six Rooms in Two Days
Every year, Wilson Audio receives requests from various manufacturers to use our loudspeakers in conjunction with their CES exhibits. This year, Wilson was inundated with more requests than could be accommodated. Ultimately, we agreed to provide loudspeakers for six demonstration rooms -- the largest number we've ever supplied for a single show. To ensure optimum placement and performance, the Wilson team sets up the loudspeakers in each one of the exhibitor's rooms. It was a whirlwind two days of work for
SnowGhost Music Recording Studio
For indie musicians wanting to make records with the best possible sound, mecca just may be a little recording studio in Whitefish, Montana. There Brett Allen presides over a state-of-the-art, spare-no-cost facility designed for the sole purpose of providing indie artists the kind of recording experience they would expect from a label-owned studio. Watch Brett at work, discussing the music industry, the art of recording, and the decision to outfit the studio with five Sashas and a pair of Alexandrias.
Wilson Audio in the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Recording Studio
Every Sunday morning, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir broadcasts a live performance over the CBS Radio Network, the nation's longest-running continuous radio show. Trent Walker, the recording engineer in charge of the broadcast describes the process that led him to select Wilson loudspeakers for the control room, and the impact his decision had on the quality of the broadcast sound.
Alexandria at the Venetian, 2011
CES 2011 marked a milestone for Wilson Audio: the first time the company has provided a pair of their six foot tall, eight hundred pound Alexandrias for an electronics manufacturer to use in their room at the show. Vladimir Lamm persuaded Dave Wilson to undertake the logistical challenge so that Wilson's flagship loudspeaker could be heard with Lamm's flagship ML-3 monoblocks. The resulting collaboration earned the pairing "best sound at CES" from more than one reviewer.
30 Year Reunion
Nearly thirty years ago, Dan D'Agostino, the founder of Krell, helped a fledgling young designer named Dave Wilson launch his first loudspeaker, the WAMM, at the Chicago CES by providing the electronics for the display. This year, at the 2011 CES, Dan launched the first product from his brand new company, Dan D'Agostino: the jewel-like Momentum monoblock amplifier. The loudspeaker he chose to debut his amps with? The Wilson Sasha W/P. For Dave Wilson, it was the opportunity to return a favor, and shine the
Meet Trent Workman and Jerron Marchant, the virtuosos of Customer Service at Wilson Audio. Trent and Jerron, like the rest of us, have been on the receiving end of both good and bad customer service. Armed with that experience, they are fanatical about providing their own customers with only the most empathetic and helpful kind of support. An approach that obviously wouldn't work unless it was upheld by the company they work for. The B139 in question? That's the discontinued driver used in a discontinued lo
Wilson Audio at the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest
The Rocky Mountain Audio Fest is one of the few industry events where consumers can attend a show devoted almost entirely to two-channel music reproduction. It's also one of the few venues where new companies can afford to present their wares, and high-end companies of any size can have direct contact with their customers. It's an event less about commerce, and more about the passion that, in its purest form, drives the high-end audio community. At this year's Audio Fest, Wilson Audio's John Giolas and Pete
Director of Engineering Vern Credille and Mechanical Engineer Blake Schmutz demonstrate one of Wilson Audio's newest tools: the laster vibrometer system. Originally devised for the aerospace industry, the laser vibrometer can measure and visually display minute resonances in a cabinet enclosure on the scale of nanometers. The data generated by the instrument will prove invaluable in the evaluation of new cabinet materials, as well as in the design of bracing structures, as we continue our industry-leading q
Music Lovers Event
Gel Coater
Gel Coating is one of the "in-between" processes in the completion of a Wilson Audio loudspeaker. It's completely invisible in the finished product, and yet it is critical to the durability and beauty of every loudspeaker we produce. Clint Odom, who is Wilson's "master Gel Coater" shows us the process, but, more importantly, talks about the meaning and satisfaction he derives from being part of a guild of craftspeople, each one dedicated to the part they play in the creation of the whole.
Sleeping on Sonex
Sheryl Lee Wilson had never encountered the arcane world of high-end audio until she met young Dave Wilson in college and they started dating. Together, as a married couple, they made the fateful decision to transform Dave's hobby into a business. In this intimate reflection, Sheryl Lee Wilson recalls the romance, the challenges, the hardships and rewards of building Wilson Audio from a tiny garage enterprise into one of the most successful privately-owned audio companies in the world.
Master Painter
The automotive-like finish on Wilson Audio loudspeakers is the result of a painstaking, multi-step process, but, ultimately, the quality of the finished product is a function of the skill of the person in the paint booth. Bryan Schramm isn't content with good enough. He's constantly seeking ways to improve his methods and hence, the end product--a product he regards with a pride offset by the humility he displays in talking about himself.
Debuting Sophia 3 at the Definitive Audio Home Theater Experience June 2010
For the past 18 years, Seattle's Definitive Audio has hosted their annual Home Theater Experience, a 2 day event featuring new product demos and visits from representatives of some of the high-end audio and video industry's leading manufacturers. This year, Wilson Audio's John Giolas and Jerron Marchant introduced participants to the new Sophia Series 3 loudspeaker.
The Drive
Joe Allan is Wilson Audio's Quality Assurance Supervisor. For 16 years, he's driven 130 miles round trip from his home in the rural farming community of Spring City, Utah to the Wilson factory in Provo. Joe reflects on what motivates him, as well as what drives many of his fellow craftsmen to log tenures in excess of ten years with the company.

Wilson Audio at the Ferrari Challenge
For those of you that were not able to attend Wilson Audio's event at the Ferrari Challenge at Miller Motorsports Park in Tooele Ut, here is a video to show you the highlights that you missed.
Another Father and Son
Not every part of a Wilson Audio loudspeaker is fabricated in house. In this video, we meet a father and son team operating a state-of-the-art machine shop in the countryside of Salem, Utah, some twelve miles from the Wilson factory. For years, they've been solely responsible for producing the metal pieces—ports, spikes, alignment blocks, cover plates—that are part of every loudspeaker. What do they get out of it, besides a steady customer? Eric and Elmer Hartman talk about their personal stake in the value
A Brief History of Cabinet Materials at Wilson Audio
When Dave Wilson began building loudspeakers in his garage in the 1980's, he was, from the beginning, concerned about controlling cabinet resonances. Some of the techniques he used (and later abandoned) are now being heralded by other manufacturers as "cutting edge" technology. Meanwhile, Dave and the Wilson engineers continued to research and develop a range of proprietary composites ideally suited to loudspeaker enclosures.
Conversations, Part V
Can a loudspeaker which measures "perfectly" according to all known parameters still sound less than satisfying? Dave discusses the inherent relativity in the notion of "accuracy", and why all the things we're able to measure may not tell you how well a loudspeaker will reproduce the beauty of live music.
Conversations, Part IV
Audio Fundamentalism. Given the myriad equipment choices available to the audiophile, when does passionate self-identification with a particular brand or technology cross the line from the occasion for free-spirited discourse into something less savory--something detrimental to to the sense of community in the high-end, and, ultimately, to the enjoyment of the music itself?
Conversations, Part III
Wilson Audio Founder and President talks about what "voicing" a loudspeaker means to him.
Conversations, Part II
Dave Wilson, Wilson Audio Founder and President, talks about what distinguishes live music from reproduced music, and what aspects of loudspeaker design are most relevant to approaching the sound of live music.
Conversations, Part I
Wilson Audio Founder and President, Dave Wilson, talks about early influences on his ideas about loudspeaker design, noting in particular the work of Gilbert Briggs of Wharfedale. He also considers the myriad technologies available to loudspeaker designers, and their relative strengths and weaknesses.

The Blue Hawaiian cocktail (not to be confused with the Blue Hawaii, which is totally different) is a classic blend of white rum, coconut, pineapple juice and Blue Curacao. The latter ingredient turns the drink a rather shocking shade of blue and the whole mix of flavours is exotic– the taste of a being on a tropical beach somewhere lovely.
When you think about it (trust me, I have...) cocktails share several similarities with cupcakes – both are pretty, decorated, attention-seeking and designed to be quick hits of happiness. I remember once reading an old book of cocktail recipes and the barman explained that you should drink your cocktail quickly or, as he termed it, "while it is still winking at you". Cupcakes are the same.
I had to use the Blue Curacao in the buttercream, as the chance to make shocking blue buttercream was too fabulous to resist...but as you will see, that didn't happen and instead I got a delicate, fresh green. That left the coconut, rum and pineapple for the sponge; I used Malibu, which is a coconut rum, but ordinary rum would be just as nice. I opted for a coconut sponge filled with pineapple curd – this added extra texture and kept the flavours separate. Here they are loaded with curd...
...and this is how it looks in the finished cupcake:
The flavours worked really well in this cupcake and they looked ever so pretty without a lot of effort on my part. These are the perfect cupcakes for January – they're little hits of happiness!
For those of you nervous about making Swiss meringue buttercream here's my step by step guide.
For the pineapple curd:
2 egg yolks (keep the whites for the buttercream!)
200ml pineapple juice
50g caster sugar
25g cornflour
For the cupcake sponge (this will make 12 cupcakes):
125g unsalted butter, at room temperature
125g caster sugar
4 tablespoons desiccated coconut
2 tablespoon Malibu (coconut rum)
2 eggs
125g self raising flour
1 tablespoon milk
For the swiss meringue buttercream:
4 egg whites
250g caster sugar
250g unsalted butter, at room temperature
3-4 teaspoons Blue Curacao
To decorate: maraschino cherries
Start by making the pineapple curd; this can be done several days in advance: place all the ingredients into a saucepan and stir, over a low heat, until the mixture thickens and starts to bubble. Don't panic and think yours isn't working – it can take 10 minutes or more before, in an instant, it thickens and turns into curd.
Remove from the heat and leave to cool, then refrigerate until needed. It will thicken further as it chills.
To make the cupcakes, increase the oven to 190°C/fan oven 170°C/375°F/Gas mark 5.
Line a cupcake pan with paper cases.
Beat together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Mix together the coconut and Malibu so that the coconut absorbs some of the rum. Normally, I'd add this after the eggs but I wanted to ensure it was added early and well distributed in the batter.
Beat in the eggs, flour, and milk.
When the mixture is smooth and well combined, spoon into the paper cases.
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the cupcakes comes out clean. Mine took 16 minutes.
Leave to cool on a wire rack and remove from the tin when cool enough to handle.
On the day of serving, use a corer or knife to remove the central core of the cupcake sponge out, taking care not to go right down to the bottom of the cupcake.
Now make the swiss meringue buttercream: Place the egg whites and sugar in a bowl over a pan of simmering water. Stir pretty much constantly to prevent the egg from cooking.
After 5-10 minutes, when the sugar has dissolved (when you cannot see any crystals on the back of the spoon), remove the bowl from the pan of simmering water and whisk until the meringue has puffed up and the mix is cool.
Add the butter to the meringue and whisk until the butter has been completely incorporated into the meringue. At first it will look a disaster – it will collapse and look curdled but don't worry! Stop when the mixture is smooth, light and fluffy.
Now add the Blue Curacao gradually and beat until the colour of the buttercream is evenly blue.
Fill the whole with half a teaspoonful of pineapple curd.
Pipe the buttercream on top of the cupcake and top with a maraschino cherry.
Bask in the glory of the wonderful thing you have made.

Bruce Lee Wall Decal
$25.45 $29.952461 - 16in x 18in
What is a wall decal?
How do you make a wall decal?
Where can I put up my wall decal?
Where should I not place a wall decal?
Do I need a special tool to apply my decal?
How do I apply my wall decal?
Can I cut out sections of my decal and apply them where I like?
Can I return my wall decal if I don't like it?
Can I get color samples in advance?
Can I get a "test" decal before I order?
Once I have my wall decal, how long can I keep it before applying it?
We recommend that you apply your wall decal within 2 weeks after receiving it for the best results. That's because the longer a decal sits, the better chance there is of tiny air bubbles forming between the vinyl and backing paper which causes the adhesive to dry out. This can definitely cause your decal not to stick to your wall the way it should! Also, it's best to unroll your decal and keep it on a flat surface for a couple of hours prior to applying it. This is to ensure it doesn't roll back up upon itself and become a sticky mess!
What does "as pictured" or "reversed" mean when choosing decal direction?
You're free to choose whether you would like your decal to face in the direction as you see it "as pictured" on our website or "reversed" and have it created to face in the opposite direction. For instance, if you see a unicorn facing to the left on our website and think it would look much better on your wall looking to the right, just select "reversed" when placing your order.

Information about the data used to compile this directory:
The information presented here is derived from a database of all 10,586 GP surgeries in England and the point location of those which could be accurately geo-referenced. It shows the position of the main surgery site of the GP Practice and any branch surgeries, which were operating in December 2006. Other health services such as those offered by mobile health professionals, NHS 'Walk In ' centres and home visits are not covered. Therefore, this dataset should be viewed as a part of a wider provision of primary care health services.
It should also be noted that patients might choose to register with their preferred GP and GP Practice, which may or may not be the one that is closest to their home address. GPs also have discretion over which patients are registered with them.
The data form a subset of information collected from a database of all public health service establishments in England. This was the best data source available for the location of primary care services, in December 2006. This is maintained by NHS Connecting for Health (formerly National Health Service Information Authority, NHSIA). This does NOT include data from Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland which are maintained by their own teams.
