Practical Devices XM6: A Review
Pros: More features than some full-sized amps, friendly and professional staff, outstanding warranty, good sound, easy to upgrade, great battery life
Cons: Perhaps a touch pricey, more 'transportable' than it is 'portable,' minor design/aesthetic flaws
My first review! I'm a bit of a newb, so please take what I say with a grain of salt!
The Great:
-This little amp is positively packed with features--and you'll use them all. Even the ones that you think you won't, like the 'flashlight' mode, or the 75 Ω button. (Makes for a great way to quickly lower the volume if someone is talking to you.)
-It's got some truly unique features--a lot of which are packed into the amp's power button. ('Sleep' mode, flashlight, LED dimmer, battery tester...) On top of that is the adjustable cross feed and the media control shuttle, which you can use to pause, play, and skip forward and back when you've got the amp hooked up to your computer. (Getting this to work the way you want it to may require some setup.)
-I think that the implementation of the bass and the treble boost is worth mentioning--even if you don't much care for EQing your headphones, it's hard to resist toying with these features a little bit. They add just enough oomph to make a noticeable and welcome difference in most cases. I've yet to turn them on with any music and headphones combination and be displeased with the result.
-The guys (or guy, or guys and girls, whatever) at Practical Devices are the very definition of great customer service. The unit I got came with a hex wrench that was too small to fully tighten the volume knob after taking it off to do some op-amp rolling. One email to Practical Devices and I got two wrenches of the correct size lickety split. (The amps now ship with the correct size wrench.)
-Three year warranty. Awesome.
-This amp is ridiculously easy to upgrade. Even an idiot like me can do it. Sure, I was sweating bullets the whole time, scared to death that I was going to irreparably break something, but it wound up being a piece of cake. The whole amp comes apart and goes back together again very easily, though sometimes getting the face plates re-positioned just right will cause a moment's aggravation.
-I love the battery life on this thing. Granted, its life does depend heavily on how the amp is configured, but stock (and even after some op-amp rolling) it still outlasts the battery on my iPod.
-The XM6 sounds good stock, and sounds even better when you install an op-amp that you like. Plenty of upgrade options. I, for one, am looking forward to trying other chips in it in the future.
The Good:
-The USB DAC is a nice little touch--I find myself using it quite a lot, especially at work. I stayed with the 8740 DAC in mine, though there are more choices when you purchase the amp.
-Other than a few niggly points (look below) I like the cross feed and use it fairly frequently--I find it makes long music-listening sessions considerably less fatiguing than they would be otherwise.
-While it's useless now, the AUX expansion should allow for some (hopefully) pretty cool add-on stuff in the future.
The Nitpicks:
-The adjustable cross feed is nice... but unless you carry a screwdriver with you everywhere you go, it's not the sort of thing you'll be using very often.
-Maybe it's just me, but I've found that it can be difficult to find a happy medium with the cross feed. It can sound and work great with most music, but with other music it can cause the center of some productions to get pretty muddy (Kayo Dot's Choirs of the Eye is a prime offender, for example), even when it's set fairly close to stereo. Now, I could take a screwdriver to the cross feed control and try to fine-tune it further, but when I'm on the go or actually trying to get some work done, it's just easier to turn the cross feed off. This is a problem that I don't have with my Headroom Micro Amp, and that's only got two flavors of cross feed: on or off.
-This is more of a transportable amp than it is a portable amp, really. It's not something that I'd try to use from my bag or a pocket--not only is it just a little too big for that, but it's really easy to push its buttons or turn its volume knob without trying. (Hasn't stopped me from using it this way before, though.) I think the best thing to do with it is to put on the adhesive feet that it came with and treat it as a portable desktop amp, if that makes sense.
-The XM6 appears to be solidly built, no denying that, but there are a few little aesthetic niggles I have with it. The groves on its side (on mine, at least) didn't get quite as good a coat of paint as did the rest of the amp. The buttons along the front of the device don't all line up totally right, and feel fairly loose and wiggly--though I doubt that they are going anywhere. Not sure that I care for the sticker that comes attached to it that displays your XM6's configuration--though you could probably remove it fairly easily if you wanted. (Can you tell that I'm really stretching to find faults at this point?)
-The XM6 is a bit on the pricey side when compared with some of its competition. I think the price is justified if you really plan on using all, or at least most of, the XM6's features. The fact that it's so easy to drastically change the amp's sound is really great, as well, and isn't something I see a lot of. Still, a lot of people can probably get what they need out of another amp and for quite a bit less. Just research before you buy.
In Sum:
I love this amp--it goes with me to work every day, and I use it at home if I'm away from my 'main rig' for whatever reason. If you've done your research, checked out the competition, have cash to spare, and love lots of features, go for it. The amp comes with a 30-day money back guarantee, so if it doesn't suit you at all, you're not out anything.
Thanks for reading.

London Irish are boosted by the return of Sailosi Tagicakibau to the starting line-up for the Premiership encounter with Sale Sharks.
London Irish are boosted by the return of Sailosi Tagicakibau to the starting line-up for the Premiership encounter with Sale Sharks.
Tagicakibau is the only change from the starting side that beat Worcester Warriors last weekend in front of nearly 20,000 supporters at Madejski Stadium.
Jebb Sinclair and Darren Allinson both come into the squad as replacements. Topsy Ojo is named as a replacement having played the most matches in the squad this season.
"I was very pleased with the efforts of our entire squad last weekend," said London Irish boss Brian Smith.
"The forward pack fronted up and set a platform for the team to keep the scoreboard moving. On Sunday it is important we keep that same level of performance. Sale are currently playing well so we know it will be another challenge, but one we are ready for."
Meanwhile, Sale Sharks travel to London Irish this weekend looking to win against the Exiles at the Madejski for the first time since October 2006.
Both sides won last weekend, Irish beat Worcester convincingly and Sale beat Bath thanks to a late Tom Brady try.
Irish have put a run of form together of late in the Aviva Premiership at home and their last defeat at 'The Mad Stad' was at home to Leicester Tigers just before Christmas.
Sharks won the game at Salford back in November by 21 points to 9 with Nick Macleod and Jonny Leota scoring tries. That win was Sharks first of the season in the Premiership.
Form: Sale recorded a fifth victory of the campaign, 14-13 at home to Bath, last time out but the Sharks face a big test at the Madejski Stadium, having only recorded one away victory in the competition this season; that was 26-25 over London Welsh at Oxford in Round 15. The Sharks won 21-9 when the two sides met at Salford City Stadium in Round 8; but they have not completed a league double over London Irish since season 2005/06 – their most recent win at Madejski Stadium was in October 2006.
The teams:
London Irish: 15 Tom Homer, 14 Marland Yarde, 13 Guy Armitage, 12 Shane Geraghty, 11 Sailosi Tagicakibau, 10 Ian Humphreys, 9 Pat Phibbs, 8 Chris Hala'ufia, 7 Ofisa Treviranus, 6 Matt Garvey, 5 Bryn Evans, 4 George Skivington (c), 3 Halani Aulika, 2 David Paice, 1 Max Lahiff.
Replacements: 16 Scott Lawson, 17 Jerry Yanuyanutawa, 18 Leo Halavatau, 19 Jon Fisher, 20 Jebb Sinclair, 21 Topsy Ojo, 22 Jonathan Joseph, 23 Darren Allinson.
Sale Sharks: 15 Cameron Shepherd, 14 Charlie Amesbury, 13 Johnny Leota, 12 Sammy Tuitupou, 11 Mark Cueto, 10 Nick Macleod, 9 Dwayne Peel, 8 James Gaskell, 7 David Seymour (c), 6 Daniel Braid, 5 Andrei Ostrikov, 4 Kearnan Myall, 3 Henry Thomas, 2 Marc Jones, 1 Al Dickinson.
Replacements: 16 Tommy Taylor, 17 Ross Harrison, 18 Tony Buckley, 19 Tom Holmes, 20 Andy Powell, 21 Nathan Fowles, 22 Danny Cipriani, 23 Tom Brady.
Date: Sunday, 31 March
Venue: Madejski Stadium

New For 2013
- Exterior colors: Sonoma Red Metallic and Heritage Blue Metallic (not available on Denali)
- Powertrain grade braking in normal transmission mode
GMC Sierra 1500 for 2013 features a broad, diverse and efficient lineup, offering everything from the job-ready Work Truck models to the luxurious Sierra Denali.
Sierra 1500 is available in several trim packages, including Work Truck, SL (crew cab and extended cab), XFE, SLE and SLT, in 2WD and 4WD configurations (XFE is 2WD only). The range of body styles and configurations includes: three cab styles – regular, extended and crew cab – and three cargo box lengths: 5 feet 8 inches (short), 6 feet 6 inches (standard) and 8 feet (long).
A range of powerful yet efficient V-8 engines is offered. Variable valve timing is standard on all V-8 engines and cylinder-deactivating Active Fuel Management is incorporated on 5.3L engines. These technologies help optimize performance and efficiency. In fact, Sierra's powertrains, backed by fuel-saving, six-speed automatic transmissions, help deliver the industry's best V-8 fuel economy – including up to 22 mpg on the highway for the Sierra XFE and up to 23 mpg on the highway with the segment-exclusive Sierra Hybrid.
The Sierra XFE is the only full-size truck that offers more than 300 horsepower and greater than 21 mpg on the highway. It incorporates unique aerodynamic enhancements, a 5.3L/six-speed automatic powertrain and other details to deliver its 22-mpg highway rating, while the Sierra Denali fuses performance and unmatched luxury, with specific exterior cues, a well-appointed interior and a powerful 6.2L V-8 engine.
Supported by the robust full-size truck architecture, Sierra's powertrains also enable excellent capability, including a maximum payload capacity of 1,937 pounds (838 kg). And when equipped with the available max trailering package and the 6.2L V-8, the Sierra 1500 can tow up to 10,700 pounds (4,853 kg).
New for 2013 is powertrain grade braking in the normal transmission mode. It was previously incorporated only when the Tow/Haul mode was activated. It uses engine torque to help slow the vehicle on descents, which helps reduce brake wear. It is featured with the 5.3L and 6.2L engines paired with six-speed transmissions.
Also new is a pair of exterior colors: Sonoma Red Metallic and Heritage Blue Metallic.
Sierra Denali details
The Sierra Denali is offered in 2WD and AWD configurations. It is powered by a 6.2L V-8 engine, rated at 403 horsepower (301 kW) and 417 lb.-ft. of torque (565 Nm). The engine is paired with the Hydra-Matic 6L80 six-speed automatic transmission. Complementing drivetrain features include a 9.5-inch rear axle (2WD) or 8.6-inch rear axle (AWD) with 3.42 gears and an automatic locking rear differential. The specially tuned Z60 suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, StabiliTrak, skid plates and recovery hooks are standard. Twenty-inch chrome-finish aluminum wheels are standard and unique to Denali.
A Denali-specific chrome grille makes the truck instantly recognizable. Additional chrome trim and body-color bumpers further distinguish it. Sierra Denali also offers a unique combination of interior style and luxury, including standard nuance leather-appointed seats, heated and cooled 12-way power-adjustable front seats and an exclusive leather-wrapped and heated steering wheel.
Denali models feature a unique center console, enhanced interior bright work and detailed, highly finished embossed sill plates. The center console has wood grain-appearance trim that conceals the lid and cupholder pockets, creating a more finished and refined appearance.
Sierra design and exterior features
The Sierra lineup is characterized by a rugged yet refined appearance, with chiseled bodywork complemented by details such as chrome bumpers (Sierra Denali features body-color bumpers). Additional elements, including flared rear fenders and premium headlamps, contribute to Sierra's refinements, while features such as large, grab-style door handles – designed for easy use with work gloves – reinforce the notion that it is a truck first and foremost.
Highlights of Sierra's standard and available exterior features include:
Sierra's exterior color choices include Sonoma Metallic, Heritage Blue Metallic, Onyx Black, Mocha Steel Metallic, Stealth Grey Metallic, Steel Grey Metallic, Summit White, Fire Red, Quicksilver Metallic and White Diamond Tricoat.
A wide range of dealer-installed accessories is available for Sierra 1500, including tonneau covers, assist steps, chrome packages, bed liners, utility racks and more.
Sierra interior standard and available features
Sierra features two interiors to meet the diverse needs of customers. The Work Truck, SL and SLE trim levels feature the "pure pickup" interior, while Denali and SLT models feature the luxury-inspired interior similar to GMC's full-size SUVs.
Work Truck, SL and SLE trim levels feature larger controls and door handles that are easier to use with gloves. A large-capacity, double glove box is part of the instrument panel. Denali and SLT models feature a luxury-inspired interior with a unique instrument panel, door panels, large-capacity center console that offers 20.1 liters of undivided storage and other distinct trim.
A stadium-style rear seat with a 60/40-split design and folding center armrest is standard on crew cab models and available on extended cab models. It can be easily folded up with one hand, without using a release handle, to provide an uninterrupted load floor. Alternatively, either section of the split seat can be stowed independently, allowing room for both cargo and a rear-seat passenger.
Rear access doors on the extended cab open 170 degrees for easy entry to the rear seat/storage area of extended cab models. Power-operated rear side windows lower completely into the 170-degree access doors, providing 100-percent openness on SLE and SLT models.
Additional interior features include:
Sierra powertrains
Sierra models are powered by an efficient lineup of engines, led by Vortec small-block V-8s. Advanced technologies such as Active Fuel Management (AFM) and variable valve timing (VVT) optimize performance and efficiency. Three FlexFuel engines are available and partnered with fuel-saving AFM, giving customers the choice of powering their truck with E85 ethanol, gasoline or a combination of both fuels.
Sierra 1500's engine offerings include:
Sierra chassis and suspension
Built on GM's full-size truck platform, the Sierra incorporates features such as a fully boxed frame – with a hydroformed front section – coil-over-shock front suspension and rack-and-pinion steering. Wide front and rear tracks – 68.1 inches (1,732 mm) front/67 inches (1,702 mm) rear – enhance handling and vehicle stability for a more confident road feel, while Sierra's stiff frame reduces vibrations transmitted to the passenger cabin. The strength and accuracy of the fully boxed frame also enable precise mounting and tuning of chassis and suspension components.
Sierra is offered with five suspension systems, each tailored to suit specific driving requirements:
Additional chassis and suspension details include:
The Z71 suspension is available on SLE and SLT models. Content includes high-pressure, gas-charged monotube shocks, on/off-road tires, off-road jounce bumpers, front recovery hooks (2WD models), a skid plate and high-capacity air cleaner.
The NHT enhanced trailering packageis available on SLE and SLT extended cab and crew cab models. Content includes the 6.2L V-8 engine, heavy-duty automatic locking rear differential, Z85 suspension, 9.5-inch rear axle, 3.73 axle ratio, 17-inch aluminum wheels and on/off-road tires and four-wheel disc brakes.
Sierra safety and crash-avoidance features
Sierra has a strong body structure to absorb crash energy and provide a protective "safety cage" around occupants. Standard head curtain side air bags with rollover protection are featured for all seating rows, while standard seat-mounted side-impact air bags for driver and right-front passenger provide thorax and pelvic protection. The roof-mounted head curtain air bags include design features that provide increased rollover protection and occupant containment.
Additional safety features include:
OnStar details
Six months of OnStar Directions and Connections service is standard on Sierra. OnStar is the global leading provider of connected safety, security and mobility solutions and advanced information technology.
OnStar's RemoteLink Mobile App allows smartphone users to control vehicle functions, access vehicle information and send directions directly to the vehicle. A new, opt-in service called FamilyLink allows subscribers to stay connected to loved ones by checking the location of their vehicle online or by signing up for vehicle location alerts.

Not good
"I tried these on in store and they felt comfortable. Based on so many reviews, I was sure it was going to be a winner. But I was wrong. They were horrible to walk in. I have two blisters on my feet just from one day. Definitely going back. Not worth the money."

Perfect work shoe!
"I originally picked these out online because I needed a new pair of black low-heeled shoes to wear for choir concerts. I wanted them to be dressy, comfortable, and long-lasting, and was sold by the fact that they have a leather upper. I went to try them on in-store (my shoe sizing has been all over the place lately) and ended up with a half-size smaller than I thought I would need. I was so impressed with the comfort level that I bought a second pair in pewter to wear for work. They have become my go-to work shoe! The wedge heel keeps the hem of my dress pants off the floor but is low enough that they still feel like flats (and the pewter color goes with EVERYTHING). I can't say enough good things about these shoes!(In response to the person whose review mentions wearing on the heel... I bought a pair of driving moccasins specifically because all my nice shoes were wearing on the heels from driving. Find a pair where the rubber sole wraps up the back of the heel and save your dressy shoes for when you get out of the car. Problem solved!)"

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.

1) Dig a hole deep enough to allow the dormant bulb to be covered with 1" of soil.
2) Place bulb in hole and cover with soil, firming soil with fingers.
3) Water well. These lilies will thrives in full to part sun in any well-drained garden soil in zones 3 through 8. If natural rainfall is less than 1 inch per week, additional watering is recommended.
Apply plant food at a rate of 5 lbs per 100 sq. ft. of garden. It is also for use on seeded plantings. After the seeds have emerged, broadcast our general purpose over the desired area at above rate and incorporate into the soil.
You can even start your winter mulch upon transplanting. As a mulched bed retains moisture and also helps keep down the weeds. A 2-4" layer of shredded bark or compost is ideal for this and will also maintain soil temperatures.
Keep the area around your plants free of weeds. Weeds compete with all plants for food, water and light. Walk around the garden periodically and pull weeds, including the roots as soon as you see them. Mulch also assists in keeping weeds down.
Improves the size, quality, and color of blooms and maintains a healthy, happy plant for many years. Remove spent blossoms to promote additional blooming. Pinch or cut-off the blooms when they have faded, but leave as much foliage as possible. Keep the center of any bush open for air circulation by pruning off inner branches and any that are damaged or unsightly.
Add 1 tablespoon to soil in hole and mix thoroughly before planting the transplant. Scratch fertilizer at above rate into surface once they start flowering/fruiting. For existing garden, broadcast around existing plants and incorporate into soil at the above rate. Apply at the beginning of growing season and again when plants start to bear vegetables.
Winter-hardy: after frost causes the foliage to wither and die, cut back the stalks to ground level. These lilies are winter-hardy perennials and will send up new stalks late the following spring/early summer. After you cut back to the ground in the fall you can still mulch if you feel that this is necessary. However, remove the mulch in the spring as soon as temperatures start to rise.

PIONEER VILLAGE - Maryville Elementary students plan to have green thumbs next semester in the school's new community garden.
Maryville received a Lowe's Community Toolbox Grant in the amount of $3,600 to purchase the garden, first planted in April by administrators, students and families.
The earliest opening day in Bullitt County Public Schools history has arrived.
Students experienced a beautiful summer day as they arrived at school on Wednesday, Aug. 6.
The Pioneer News will visit each BCPS school location during opening week. Continue to check the multimedia section of www.pioneernews.net for photos.
SHEPHERDSVILLE - They sat at Bullitt Lick Middle School to learn how to sit better.
Thirty local girls, age 11-13, participated in two Safe Sitter educational programs, a one-day event designed to share safe and nurturing child care techniques, behavior management skills and responses to emergency situations.
The program was hosted by Bullitt County Health Department educator Liz McGuire and Bullitt Lick Youth Services Center coordinator Tara Davis.
Officials at Walt Disney Studios in Burbank, CA took interest in letters dispatched by students in Roby Elementary School teacher Jacquelyn Clark's reading council.
"The kids loved the book The Boy Who Saved Baseball by John R. Ritter and wanted to see if a studio would make it into a movie," Clark said.
The popularity of an ancient board game is captured in the number of new players.
"We have, as a group, seen our chess program almost double in size over last year," said District Chess League Coordinator Dennis Minnis. "18 different schools from Bullitt County participated in the district Chess Championships this year."
Minnis has a passion for chess because it involves thinking strategies.
School chess team coaches are learning that once word reaches students they can be part of a chess team, moves are made.
Rita Taulbee of Lebanon Junction Elementary School distributes flyers in the fall followed by visiting individual classes and asking teachers for input.
FRANKFORT — Kentucky high school students and 2014 graduates should check their Kentucky Educational Excellence Scholarship (KEES) accounts for accuracy.
KEES allows students to earn money for college by getting good grades in high school and for qualifying scores on the ACT or SAT. Students eligible for free or reduced lunches may also earn awards for good scores on Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate exams. KEES is administered by the Kentucky Higher Education Assistance Authority (KHEAA).
Visiting students, ages 15-18, from around the world including Germany, Spain, Switzerland, and Thailand are seeking host families in and around Shepherdsville for the upcoming 2014-2015 academic school year.
Host families are needed for the fall semester and full school year.
Walk on the Wild Side at Indiana Animal Preservation
It was a shared Facebook post that led our family to discover one of the best days of our summer vacation.
Wildlife In Need (WIN) is located in Clark County, Ind.
WIN is home to hundreds of indigenous, exotic and endangered animals. The animals are very active and healthy.
They appear to be very happy and have an amazing bond with Tim Stark, the owner of WIN.
SHEPHERDSVILLE -- The Bullitt County Arts Council is looking for a place to call their own.
Beginning next month, the group will start having fundraisers to build an arts center.
"It's something we are all pretty excited about," said Arts Council President Donna Burke.
She said they are looking at a few pieces of land and have made up a tentative drawing of the building which will include an art gallery/gift shop and meeting/event rooms for the three divisions of the council.
SHEPHERDSVILLE - What better way to promote art's future in the community than with a junior arts council?
And what better way to promote that council than to give them a community project to create?
The Junior Artists of Bullitt County gathered at a summer camp to begin work on a sculpting project that will be displayed at the Shepherdsville City Park.
SHEPHERDSVILLE - With less than two weeks to go before the filing deadline, there are few candidates who have jumped into the various non-partisan races.
And no one has filed for the two school board seats which will be contested.
The filing deadline is at 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 12, in the Bullitt County Clerk's office.
The general election is on Tuesday, Nov. 4.
In the race for Mount Washington, incumbent Joetta Calhoun will not run for re-election.
Kindergarten students in Rita Taulbee's class at Lebanon Junction Elementary School started two outdoor gardens during 2013-2014 school year.
"They have a salad garden which contains tomatoes, lettuce, chard, carrots, onions, and radishes…everything you would find in a salad," Taulbee explained.
With assistance from the Bullitt County Cooperative Extension Service, students used unique ways to get seeds to germinate before transplanting them.
HILLVIEW - They both enjoy knocking them down and getting the most pins.
One of them is a wrestler, the other a bowler.
The Eric Dezarn team, senior and junior, make for a powerful twosome, one that will compete against other parents and children at the International Family Tournament presented by the Bowling Proprietors' Association of America (BPAA).
Eric S., the son, will attend seventh grade at Zoneton Middle School. However, he is already a member of the North Bullitt bowling team.
MOUNT WASHINGTON--It was a special day for Thomas Gordon Jr.
He was able to honor his grandpa, Bill Cecil, by reading his winning essay at the recent meeting for the Bullitt County Retired Teachers Association.
Thomas, who just completed fifth grade at Crossroads Elementary, said he admired his grandfather because "he's honest, works hard and is loving."
He spoke about all of the activities he enjoyed doing with Cecil such as playing on the computer, riding his bike and fishing.
Photographer Mary Barczak spent some time at the Mount Washington public pool recently as temperatures soared into the 90s.
MOUNT WASHINGTON - Preservation is very important to the Visual Artists of Bullitt County.
In fact, it's one of the biggest reasons they continue to hold their annual all member art show each year.
Shepherdsville artist Gail Bagwell said she will continue to encourage young artists to come to the county.
"If young people don't see any artists then they aren't going to become one themselves," she said.
SeaWorld Orlando is the perfect place for families who want to have a "magical vacation" without busting the bank.
Our family decided on a last minute vacation to SeaWorld Orlando, and we were very pleasantly surprised that it topped any other theme park experience we have had in Orlando. SeaWorld has the perfect mix of shows, rides and animal encounters.
Three Bullitt Central seniors were awarded the Children in Flight Justin Brandon Mahaffey scholarships.

Product Specifications
All jewelry has been enlarged to show beauty of detail. Gemstones may have been treated or enhanced by heating or irradiation and require special care in jewelry repair or cleaning.
Tahitian Pearl
Historically, pearls have been used as an adornment for centuries. They were one of the favorite gem materials of the Roman Empire; later in Tudor England, the 1500s were known as the pearl age. Pearls are unique as they are the only gems from living sea creatures and require no faceting or polishing to reveal their natural beauty. Tahitian pearls come in more exotic colors like silver, golden green, and gray-black. Often they have a metallic luster. They tend to be larger than Akoya and Freshwater pearls.

Football Boots
Hard Ground Football Boots
what's the difference between FG (firm ground) and HG (hard ground) boots? Hard ground football boots are designed for very tough surfaces, where there is very little give in the football pitch. They can also be worn on astroturf or 3G surfaces. Hard ground boots often feature a series of very short moulded studs that provide the grip you'll need on these surfaces without causing any pain or discomfort.

Tuesday August 6th, 2013 12:43am
GENEVA, N.Y. (3/5/11) – The Colgate men's lacrosse team secured its third win of the season when it defeated Hobart 11-7 on Saturday afternoon. This was the team's first win over the Statesmen since 1964, ending their 22-game winning streak in the all-time series between the two teams that started in 1921.
Sophomore Peter Baum scored four goals the Raiders while sophomore Connor Brown and junior Jeff Ledwick had two goals each. Senior co-captain Rob Bosco, sophomore John Donnally and freshman Brendon McCann also added one goal apiece.
Hobart came out to an explosive start, firing a series of shots and finding success twice with two early goals at the 10:03 and 8:54 marks to take the 2-0 lead. As the game progressed, Colgate (2-2) began to generate its offense and eventually found the net at the 6:10 mark when Baum picked up a pass from Bosco and fired it past the goalkeeper to give the team its first goal. Three minutes later, the Raiders found a second goal from Bosco to tie the game at 2-2. Colgate continued to work hard and was soon rewarded with a third goal from Brown at the 1:45 mark to take the lead going into the second period.
The Raiders carried their scoring momentum into the second quarter, finding three quick goals in the first two minutes of play to take the 6-2 lead. The goals were from Donnally, Baum and Brown at the 14:42, 13:51 and 13:11 marks respectively. Both teams continued to play aggressively but it was Colgate that was able to create majority of the scoring opportunities as it outshot the Statesmen 5-1. The team's hard work soon paid off with a man-up goal from Ledwick to extend its lead to 7-2 with just 2:39 left in the period. Senior Ben McCabe was credited with the assist. Hobart then answered back with a goal at the 1:20 mark to put the score at 7-3 at half time.
In the third period, the Statesmen came out hungry for a goal, outshooting the Raiders 3-1 in the first four minutes of play. It was not until the 6:38 mark however that Hobart finally found the net to put the score at 7-4. Colgate then answered back with a goal from Baum, with help from Ledwick, at the five-minute mark. The Statesmen followed suit just under two minutes later to put the score at 8-5. Determined to keep their comfortable lead, the Raiders then added a pair of goals from Ledwick and McCann at the 2:27 and 0:07 marks to take the 10-5 lead going into the final quarter. Sophomore Matt Baker was credited with an assist in the second goal.
Colgate then went on to score a goal at the 4:42 mark of the final period courtesy of Baum, and despite finding two goals in the closing minutes of the game, Hobart could not close the gap, giving the Raiders the 11-7 win.
Junior goalkeeper Jared Madison had 11 saves for Colgate while Evan Kirk had six for the Statesmen.
The team will resume play next weekend when it hosts Holy Cross for its first Patriot League game of the season on Saturday, March 12 at 1 p.m.

Below you will find a listing of topics relating to financial aid programs at Glendale Community College (GCC). To go to a specific topic, click on the appropriate link below.
What is Financial Aid?
FATV Links: Financial Aid Basics, 2013-2014 Financial Aid Changes, California Dream Act
The federal government and the State of California make funds available for students who need assistance in covering their costs of attending to college. Generally, financial aid comes in the form of grants, loans, or part-time work programs. The State also provides a waiver of enrollment fees (BOG fee waiver) for students who qualify.
All students enrolled in degree, certificate or transfer programs should apply for financial aid. Many students pass up the opportunity to receive a grant or fee waiver because they think they might not qualify or don't want to bother doing the paperwork. Please don't miss out on aid you should be receiving.

Federal Pell Grants
FATV Links: Grant Programs
The Pell Grant program is the largest federal grant program for college students. Funds are available for all eligible students and approximately 7,500 GCC students receive Pell Grants each year. Awards are based on your Expected Family Contribution (EFC) and enrollment status. Awards may be as much as $2,907 (2016-2017) per semester. There is a Pell Grant lifetime limit of 12 fulltime equivalent semesters. If you are on a Financial Aid Contract, only units from the courses on your contract will count toward your eligibility.
Federal SEOG
The Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG) is awarded to the neediest students who also qualify for the maximum Pell Grant. Priority is given to full-time students. Funding is limited, and thus not all qualifying students will actually receive an award. The maximum award is $200 per semester. If you are on a Financial Aid Contract, only units from the courses on your contract will count toward your eligibility.

Cal Grants
FATV Link: California State Programs
The California Student Aid Commission (CSAC) offers California residents three types of grant programs to assist students in paying college expenses. Cal Grant award amounts vary based on financial need, enrollment status, and the availability of state funds. Cal Grant award selections are based on data obtained from your FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) and submitted GPA (Grade Point Average) Verification form. The FAFSA and GPA Verification forms are available in the Financial Aid Office. Students must be in a minimum of 6 units, at the time of disbursement in order to receive a Cal Grant award. If you are on a Financial Aid Contract, only units from the courses on your contract will count toward your eligibility.
For the 2016-2017 academic year, the deadline for applying for new Entitlement or Competitive Cal Grant is March 2, 2016. An additional deadline for a new Competitive Cal Grant for community college students only is September 2, 2016. For the 2017-2018 academic year, the deadline for applying for new Entitlement or Competitive Cal Grant is March 2, 2017. An additional deadline for a new Competitive Cal Grant for community college students only is September 2, 2017.
Entitlement Cal Grants are available to all graduating high school seniors who meet the GPA and family income and asset requirements and file their FAFSA and high school GPA Verification form (or their high school submits their GPA information electronically) by the March 2nd deadline. Students who do not meet these criteria should apply for a Competitive Cal Grant.
Students who file a 2016-2017 FAFSA and a GPA Verification form (or their school submits their GPA information electronically) by the March 2 deadline will be considered in the first round of the Competitive Cal Grant awarding process. Students who file a FAFSA and GPA Verification form by the March 2 and/or September 2 deadline and are enrolled in a community college for the Fall 2016 semester will be considered in the second round of the Competitive Cal Grant awarding process. GPAs for GCC students who have completed at least 16 degree applicable units at GCC will be sent electronically to the California Student Aid Commission. All other students may need to have a GPA Verification form completed by their Academic Counselor and submitted by the deadline.
The three types of grants available are:
Note: These amounts and provisions may change due to state budget constraints
California Full Time Student Success Grant
Student Success Grants are given to students who have been awarded a Cal Grant "B" based on eligibility criteria established by the California Student Aid Commission (CSAC). To receive payment of the Student Success Grant for the semester, you must be enrolled in at least 12 or more units to receive a full-time Cal Grant payment and be meeting all Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) standards. If you are on a Financial Aid Contract, only units from the courses on your contract will count toward your eligibility. The current maximum award is $600 per award year.
Federal Work Study
The Federal Work Study (FWS) program provides part-time jobs on campus for eligible students who wish to take advantage of the program. The advantages of a work-study job are the convenience of working on campus, the opportunity to become a part of the college community and a flexible work environment. Interested students should contact Student Employment Services for available jobs and work-study procedures. Work Study funding is very limited and not all students with potential awards will be able to be placed in a Work-Study job. Minimum number of units to be eligible for Federal Work Study is 6 units. If you are on a Financial Aid Contract, only units from the courses on your contract will count toward your eligibility.
Awards are based on unmet financial need. The actual amount earned depends on the number of hours worked and your wage rate. Students are usually awarded and may earn up to $2000 per semester. Depending upon a student's specific award offer, this amount could be less.
Federal Work Study awards will show as Offered until the Financial Aid Office receives confirmation from Job Placement that the student has been hired in an FWS program.
Federal Direct Loan Program
FATV Links: Know Your Loans, Loan Overview, Loan Programs, Loan Entrance Counseling Tutorial, Master Promissory Note (MPN) Tutorial
Glendale Community College participates in the Federal Direct Loan Program. This includes both subsidized and unsubsidized loans. All first time borrowers who are interested in applying for a student loan must attend an Entrance Loan Workshop offered by the Financial Aid Office during their first year of borrowing Federal Loans. Exit requirements for first time borrowers will be required at the end of the first year of borrowing. These workshops are held throughout the academic year and cover the following topics:
Continuing borrowers who have borrowed loans at GCC or another institution are not required to attend an Entrance Loan workshop. They may pick up a loan packet by stopping by the Financial Aid Office. For an up-to-date schedule of Entrance workshops, check out the Calendar section of our website. Also, the schedule is posted inside the Financial Aid Office.
NEW Loan eligibility changes! Effective 2013-2014 aid year:
150% Direct Subsidized Loan Limit: First-time borrowers, as of July1, 2013, are no longer eligible for Direct Subsidized Loans for a period that is more than 150% of the published length of the borrower's current educational program. This does not affect Unsubsidized Loans or PLUS loan eligibility.
Direct Unsubsidized Loan Limit: As part of our agreement with the U.S. Department of Education to participate in the Federal Student Loan Program, some students will not be able to borrow a Direct Unsubsidized Loan during grade level one (freshman; 0-29 units completed).

Federal Direct PLUS (Parent) Loans
Glendale Community College will participates in the Federal Direct Loan Program. This includes Federal PLUS loans. These are loans that parents of dependent students may take in order to assist in paying for college costs. Students who are interested in PLUS loans may attend an Entrance Counseling workshop offered by the Financial Aid Office (your parents DO NOT need to attend the workshops, although they may attend). These workshops are held throughout the academic year and cover the following topics:
For an up-to-date schedule of Entrance and/or Exit Counseling workshops, check out the Calendar section of our website. Also, the schedule is posted inside the Financial Aid Office.
Chafee Grants
Special state grants of up to $5000 are awarded to students who are or were Foster Youth. To qualify, you must file the FAFSA form, be a current or former foster youth and not have reached your 22nd birthday as of July 1 of the award year. The court must have established your dependency when you were between the ages of 16 and 19. (KinGap youth, adopted youth, guardian placement, and voluntary placement may not be eligible for the Chafee Grant, unless court dependency was established at any time between the ages of 16 and 19). The California Department of Social Services will verify your foster youth eligibility status.

BOG Fee Waiver
The Board of Governors (BOG) fee waiver is a California Community Colleges financial aid program for California residents that waives the enrollment fees for students. Any student enrolled in any number of units who meets the BOG criteria may receive a BOG. You only need to apply once each academic year. The application covers the semester you apply and any subsequent semesters in the school year. You may complete the GCC BOG Application to determine if you qualify for BOG A or BOG B. If you do not qualify for BOG A or BOG B, the Financial Aid Office can use the results of your FAFSA to determine if you qualify for BOG C.
Print the 2016-2017 BOG Application by clicking here
BOG A is awarded when the student or the student's parent receives TANF/CalWorks or SSI or when the student receives General Relief benefits. You must provide a copy of a current benefit check or notification of eligibility. Students who qualify for BOG A also are eligible for a discount on campus parking and their Health fee.
EOPS Grants and Book Vouchers
The EOPS Office provides grants and book vouchers for students who qualify for this program. For additional information, contact the EOPS Office.
Financial Aid for AB540 Students
FATV Link: California Dream Act
Students who graduated from a California high school but were not considered state residents because they were undocumented or had moved out of the state may be eligible to be classified as 'AB540' students and qualify for in-state tuition. This determination is made by the Admissions and Records Office. Under the recently passed California Dream Act, these students may also apply for the BOG Fee Waiver program and Cal Grants. Please note the following effective dates:
Effective January 1, 2013:
BOG Fee Waiver
AB540 students are eligible to apply for a BOG Fee Waiver. Students who have a permanent Social Security number and file the federal FAFSA form are automatically considered for a BOG fee waiver.

Private Educational Loans
Students applying for a private loan may do so by contacting a private lending institution of their choice.

"Very comfy shoe! Runs narrow and small. I suggest ordering at LEAST 1/2 to a whole size up. I usually wear 6 1/2 to 7 and I ordered a 7 1/2 and they are a little snug, but fit so comfortably that I kept them."

"It is very comfortable to walk around and have a girls night out in. However, I bought half a shoe size larger than I normally wear and I probably could have gone a full size larger. It definitely runs a bit small, so if you get this shoe and the proper size, its the perfect shoe and very cute."

The Springboks got their 2013 international season up and running with a five-try 44-10 victory over Italy at Kings Park on Saturday.
A clinical South Africa got their 2013 international season up and running with a five-try 44-10 victory over Italy at Kings Park in Durban on Saturday.
Adriaan Strauss, JJ Engelbrecht, Bryan Habana, Jean de Villiers and Bjorn Basson were the try scorers for the Springboks, who blooded a few new players for their opener of this four-team series with Scotland, Samoa and the Azzurri.
Willie le Roux was one newbie under the spotlight as his form for the Cheetahs was rewarded by South Africa head coach Heyneke Meyer. And despite a few early hiccups, his attack-minded approach came to the fore and kept Italy busy.
The hosts started the match strongly as Strauss and Engelbrecht both scored inside the first 23 minutes, but they had to wait a while for more.
The Azzurri's solo try came courtesy of Alberto Sgarbi during a resurgent second-half effort.
The hosts made a lively start and almost scored in the first minute after an error by their opponents at the kick-off, but Basson was bundled into touch.
However, great work from Bok flank Francois Louw moments later allowed Morne Steyn, who scored 17 points, to kick his team in front with a penalty right in front of the uprights.
The lead was doubled in the ninth minute when Leonardo Ghiraldini failed to release.
The visitors' early troubles worsened in the 13th minute as veteran lock Marco Bortolami was shown yellow by French referee Pascal Gauzere after entering a ruck from the side.
From the subsequent penalty line-out, Strauss carried the ball over from the back of a maul.
Meyer's men further capitalised on their numerical advantage in the 23rd minute when Habana latched onto a bouncing ball in his own 22-metre area, sliced through a big hole in the Italian defence and passed outside to Engelbrecht to run in his first points for the Boks.
Italy should have at least pulled a try back shortly after when Edoardo Gori knocked on five metres out, while debutant fly-half Alberto Di Bernardo missed a straightforward penalty.
South Africa continued to venture forward in the closing passage of the half, although the Azzurri showed more signs of settling into matters, with the score 20-0 at the interval.
Things began to pick up for Italy in the early stages of the second-half and when Basson was shown a yellow card for a high tackle, they had a numerical advantage for ten minutes.
Sgarbi made the most of that three minutes later, going over off a nice under-leg pass from captain and number eight Sergio Parisse. Di Bernardo added the extra two points and then a further three which brought the lead down to just ten points with a quarter of the game left.
But the Springboks showed their superior quality in the end as scores from Habana, De Villiers and finally Basson added the gloss on a decent first outing in their 2013 season.
Man of the match: Always an option and hunting work off the shoulder of players, Bryan Habana was superb once again for South Africa. Deserving of his try and this accolade.
Moment of the match: We'll go for Italy captain Sergio Parisse's under-leg pass to Alberto Sgarbi. He rarely has a bad game and was again solid for the Azzurri. We must say that Bjorn Basson's assist for Jean de Villiers' try was also out of the top drawer.
Villain of the match: Nothing too filthy to report.
The scorers:
For South Africa:
Tries: Strauss, Engelbrecht, Habana, De Villiers, Basson
Con: Steyn 4, Lambie
Pen: Steyn 3
For Italy:
Try: Sgarbi
Con: Di Bernardo
Pen: Di Bernardo
South Africa: 15 Willie le Roux, 14 Bryan Habana, 13 JJ Engelbrecht, 12 Jean de Villiers (c), 11 Bjorn Basson, 10 Morné Steyn, 9 Jano Vermaak, 8 Pierre Spies, 7 Arno Botha, 6 Francois Louw, 5 Juandré Kruger, 4 Eben Etzebeth, 3 Jannie du Plessis, 2 Adriaan Strauss, 1 Tendai Mtawarira.

Italy: 15 Andrea Masi, 14 Giovanbattista Venditti, 13 Luca Morisi, 12 Alberto Sgarbi, 11 Luke Mclean, 10 Alberto Di Bernardo, 9 Edoardo Gori, 8 Sergio Parisse (c), 7 Robert Barbieri, 6 Alessandro Zanni, 5 Marco Bortolami, 4 Antonio Pavanello, 3 Lorenzo Cittadini, 2 Leonardo Ghiraldini, 1 Alberto De Marchi.

Kerri, Six Until Me, is this week's host of Grand Rounds. I submitted one of my posts from last week. You can read this weeks grand rounds here. She does the old card system (photo credit). Great work!
Check out Happy Hospitalist's post on The Anatomy of Heart Cath, Medicare Style". He breaks it all down, then comments on it.
A nice post on case reports and HIPAA rules over at Clinical Cases and Images--Blog.
Some recent posts on "never events":
- Dr Val's Can Infections be Prevented in the Hospital Setting
- Buckeye Surgeon's Diane Suchetkas Continuing Anti-Doctor Crusade (be sure you read the comments)
- White Coat Rants' More on Medicare Never Events
- Ian Furst (Wait Times & Delayed Care) -- Never Events
- Plastic Surgery 101 suggests look before you leap (in logic) on hospital infections
- PSP blog writes WSJ on Hospital Infections: "FUD's Up!"
Then there are a couple of interesting items on organ donations:
This WSJ article: Pay for Organ Donation Gains Traction, but Not at Kidney Foundation by Jacob Goldstein. I think I agree with the Kidney Foundation --
"Offering money for organs can be viewed as an attempt to coerce economically disadvantaged Americans to participate in organ donation," the paper says.
And this Reuters news article is troublesome to me. I am with the Institute of Medicine here. Just waiting less than 2 minutes without brain death seems so wrong to me.
"Quick Harvesting of Hearts Raises Ethics Questions"
BOSTON (Reuters) - Doctors who waited just 75 seconds after the final heartbeat before removing the hearts of dying newborns for transplants said on Wednesday they improved their odds of success but have also raised ethical questions about organ harvesting.........
The technique is controversial because the waiting time recommended by the Institute of Medicine has been five minutes, unless the patient is brain dead. The three babies were not, although all had severe brain damage.
I'd like to give a head's up to Rural Doctoring's Next Big Idea.
And last, but not least for this week's Shout Outs is the Dr Anonymous' Blog Talk Radio show. I am this week's guest. It is Thursday night! I'm counting on all the help I can get from "my friends". The show starts at 8 pm CST (or 1 am GMT). I hope you will join us.
Tips for first time Blog Talk Radio listeners (from Dr A):
For first time Blog Talk Radio listeners:
*Although it is not required to listen to the show, I encourage you to register on the BlogTalkRadio site prior to the show. I think it will make the process easier.
*To get to my show site, click here. As show time gets closer, keep hitting "refresh" on your browser until you see the "Click to Listen" button. Then, of course, press the "Click to Listen" button.
*You can also participate in the live chat room before, during, and after the show. Look for the "Chat Available" button in the upper right hand corner of the page. If you are registered with the BTR site, your registered name and picture will appear in the chat room.
*You can also call into the show. The number is on my show site. I'll be taking calls beginning at around the bottom of the hour. There is also a "Click To Talk" feature where you do not need a phone to call into the show - only a microphone headset. Hope these tips are helpful!
So I'll leave you with this from Joe Cocker

So disappointed
"I ordered these online and was so bummed when I opened the box. I wanted a more rustic look. These aren't at all. They look like cheap Nine West boots from the 90's, with the cheap looking sole and heel. I didn't even try them on and am taking them back to the store today. :( Darn it."

"someone said they run small, so I purchased 2 pairs in different sizes just to make sure I get it right - they are actually true to size, comfortable, look great, natural leather, and I like that the leather is a bit stiff - will hold the form better and last longer. And you cannot beat the price!"
