FLINT, Mich. — Every famous producer had their humble beginnings. Rick Rubin had a four-track recorder, Kanye West had stacks of soul records on vinyl.
Mott Community College is taking steps to possibly make Flint the home of the next big name.
What started as one course in the spring of 2011 has grown so much interest that it is now being offered as an associate's degree at Mott. The music technology degree started last fall and is expected to grow in the next year.

A music technology degree started this fall, and the program currently has eight courses ranging from an introduction course to classes that use more sophisticated equipment and software to an electronic music course.

From mixing music, working in the recording studio to understanding the skills of music technology, students will now have more access to the courses they need.
"Students would take one class and they're hungry for it. They would ask, 'Well, when's the next class?'" said Bill Withem, assistant professor of music who created the music technology program. "The degree itself is exciting. It does offer the students the opportunity to get the basic foundation for everything out there."
The program currently has eight courses ranging from an introduction course to classes that use more sophisticated equipment and software to an electronic music course.
Throughout the program, students will learn everything they need to use their skills into action in real world experiences. Students will learn what equipment to purchase, how to put things together, how to operate it, how to record and how to have an online presence, among other skills.
"They'll have all the nuts and bolts here to get started and then from here they can move forward in the next step," Withem said.
For many students the program just made sense.
It was something they were already interested in and it will help them become more well-rounded in their future careers.
Terrence Smith, 20, of Flushing, is double majoring in music and music technology because he felt like it was the perfect match. He was already taking some of the classes before the degree was offered, but now he's hoping there will be more options and availability.
"I was geeked (when I heard about the degree)," Smith said. "It would go hand and hand (with my music major). If I have something in my head, I can just play it."
He's also learning new skills that he wouldn't have learned before taking the classes, Smith said. He now has skills to help in the studio if he needs to and he can create his own home studio.
Robert Potrykus, 52, of Columbiaville, originally started going to Mott for media arts and entertainment because there wasn't anything offered in music technology. But when classes started opening up the two concentrations paired nicely together, he said.
"My interest is in music," Potrykus said. "I didn't have the experience to fall back on so I decided to go through the program. ... (It's) very much so worthwhile. Plus we get to use professional equipment in a controlled environment."
Students use a music technology lab, as well as have experience in a recording studio.
There are plans to continue expanding the program in the next year.
"Every time I designed a new class it filled. ... It's always growing," Withem said.
Within the next year a live recording course will be offered. An auditorium will be set up to allow students to practice with sound, lighting and set up for musical groups in a live setting.
"That's almost an art in itself to do it live. There's a lot of interesting troubleshooting you have to do. ... We want students to have experience like that," Withem said. "If you're going to record you need to know everything."

European Market Tow Hitch for Audi A6 from Rameder
by George Achorn on 23 October 2012 in Aftermarket & Tuner News
[source: Rameder]
With tools at home, there's no need for a carpenter – and with the new Audi A6 there could be no need for a van. Rameder (www.rameder.eu), the leading European supplier of tow bars, offers no less than three different tow bars for the latest generation of vehicles, combining elegance with practicality.
Whatever hook is used, a Rameder tow bar will turn the A6 into a proper cart horse: even the elegant limousine with its 2.5 tons of towing capacity can almost substitute a minibus – not to mention the spacious station wagon. These stats do not only qualify the A6 as a genuine beast of burden, as there are more applications imaginable than just dragging fully loaded trailers back from DIY stores. On the road to your holiday destination this comfortable long distance cruiser can easily be paired up with a large caravan. And the consistent vertical tow bar load of 100kg even allows for fully-loaded bicycle carriers with up to four bicycles.
The question remains as to which type of tow bar would be the best choice. The hands-on working man may want to choose the reasonably priced rigid system, entailing an electrical kit with a thirteen-pole data bus. If you wish to drive up to the opera house you may want to opt for the removable spherical head. The alternative, which can be manually pivoted, is even more practical and fashionable. Incidentally, a technically and qualitatively adequate upgrade with original accessories from Audi will cost far more than Rameder will charge. So visit www.rameder.eu, now!
Please note before ordering: find out if your vehicle was supplied ready to have a tow bar installed. Otherwise you can have your vehicle upgraded by Audi anytime for a small surcharge.

Les Deux Alpes is a very popular resort with the Brits. It boasts the largest glacier in Europe (at 3568m)allowing for year round skiing. The biggest attraction for boarders and freestyle skiers, and those that like a bit of pro spotting, is the world class snowpark found at the Jandri mid-station during the winter, and up on the glacier during the summer. Beginners and intermediates are well catered for with some nice motorway pistes, although there is only one easy run back down to resort which is sometimes shut when snow is thin on the ground. Advanced skiers should head to the La Fee area for testing black runs and to nearby La Grave for some of the best off-piste around.
The resort itself is quite large and spread out, meaning it lacks that "village like" alpine charm. However, it does have a very good range of shops and restaurants, plus varied and lively nightlife. For non skiers, the hamlet of Venosc with its craft shops and cute eateries is walkable when there's not too much snow, or can be reached by cable car. Childcare is very good, so families are welcomed, but there is a lot of traffic in town, which may put some off.
Overall, a lively resort and very popular with the young freestyle crowd and their followers, with La Grave and the glacier particular pluses and Grenoble Airport only 90 minutes away.

The Zaxxon defence system must be destroyed in this isometric-viewed shoot 'em up which was originally hugely successful in the arcades. The game has 3 stages, first taking you through Asteroid City, which is heavily protected by aircraft, guns and missiles. Many barriers are alarmed, leaving you with limited space to progress through, and fire must constantly be dodged.
Stage two is a space shoot out against hordes of enemy aircraft - those you failed to destroy in the first part of the task. Complete this and you reach the final battle with Zaxxon, with the game looping with increased difficulty if you can survive the first time. There are 3 distinct skill levels, while controls involve using forward to dive and back to climb, in the manner of flight simulation.
John Garcia was actually in management at Datasoft when Zaxxon was written. He later founded Novalogic and he and the company still remain today over 20 years later.

me and my crew were tagging the highway wall/fence and this guy pulls over its like 130am and is like HEY WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU GUYS DOING?! we execute our plan so they climb up the fence and i climb up but theres ice at the top so i slip and fall on my ass while hes slowly coming towards me so i bolt it across the highway and dip into the townhouses then we met up at macs and got some munchies and went home and watched movies
alright, me and my partner were just dropping handies in a back alley, then a cop car comes out of no where, puts on its high beams and just mobs at us, we ran into a field with tallish grass, he drives around gets out with a flashlight starts walking towardds us, he yells YOU! got up ran the same way we came hid in bushes right beside a parking lot, the cop drove by got out and parked with its lights pointing at the bush we were i., got out and asked some lady if she saw, she said i think i saw 2 kids run into those bushes but im pretty sure they ran away (that saved our ass) and i could see the stripe on the cops pants clearly, chilled for like 40 mins went home and watched boondocks
2 ogod and blacklisted...Tha 2 biggist douche bags here. You guys are retards, first off they thought we were trynna rob tha place thaz y there was so many poeple and helicopters 2 Tha dog was behind a wall 15 ft behind us the only reason I know it was there is because I heard its paws so both of u get guns and shoot yerselevs congrats on bein morons..Now imma sit back and laugh at tha dumb things u say back to me.
I don;t understand what you're sayig yo, Grammar and punctuation is the key to success!
wuuurd yoozzz on tha gramerz skillz.
cops dont bring in helicopters for burglary. and they only bring in dogs if its a place thats worth stealing from. in which the side of a high way does not normally fall into the genre, unless its encrested with jewels.
cops arent dumb. some of them are, but not all. if there looking for you, there actually going to be looking for you. so if there 15 feet awat, there going to find you. and if you had helicopters on your ass anyways you would of been busted. if you had dogs you would of been busted.

[WORLD CUP 2014] Colombia coach Jose Pekerman is still hoping that Radamel Falcao, who underwent ACL surgery in January, will be fit in time for the World Cup. Falcao, who last year joined Monaco from Atletico Madrid on an estimated $80 million transfer, has been named to Colombia's provisional 30-man roster.
Falcao's scoring rate over the past few years rivaled Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Zlatan Ibrahimovic before he was taken out in a French Cup game against fourth division Chasselay
Monts d'Or Azergues.
He scored nine goals in World Cup qualifying as Colombia finished second to Argentina and last year Pekerman predicted Falcao would be the "best player at the
World Cup."
Colombia will play World Cup warm-up games against Senegal May 31 and Jordan June 6 in Buenos Aires.
Colombia (30)
Goalkeepers: David Ospina (Nice/FRA), Faryd Mondragon (Deportivo Cali), Camilo Vargas (Santa Fe).
Defenders: Mario Yepes (Atalanta/ITA), Aquivaldo Mosquera
(Club America/MEX), Cristian Zapata (AC Milan/ITA), Carlos Valdes (San Lorenzo/ARG), Amaranto Perea (Cruz Azul), Eder Alvarez Balanta (River Plate/ARG), Santiago Arias (PSV Eindhoven/NED), Camilo
Zuniga (Napoli/ITA), Pablo Armero (Napoli/ITA).
Midfielders: Carlos Sanchez (Elche/SPA), Fredy Guarin (Inter Milan/ITA), Abel Aguilar (Toulouse/FRA), Aldo Leao

Some photographic situations require specific color corrections. For example, when shooting daylight film under fluorescent lighting, some magenta correction is needed in order to remove the greenish tint that would otherwise appear. The amount of color correction required is most accurately measured via a color temperature meter. Color Compensating filters are available in the three primary colors: Red, Green, and Blue; and in the three secondary colors: Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow. A typical designation for one of these filters is CC30M. The "CC" stands for Color Compensating. The "30" stands for a density of 0.30 and the "M" is for magenta. Optiflex color compensating filters are made in the following increasing densities: 0.025(CC025), 0.05(CC05), 0.10(CC10), 0.15(CC15), 0.20(CC20), 0.25(CC25), 0.30(CC30), 0.40(CC40), 0.50(CC50). You can sandwich as many as three Optiflex polyester filters together without a noticeable loss of image quality.
Optiflex resin filters are made from durable, lightweight, optical resin and are slightly thicker than standard gelatin filters. These filters are available in 3 x 3" (75 x 75mm) and 4 x 4" (100 x 100mm) and are 0.4mm thick.

3-way design options
Hi all,
I am going to try and design a very high quality 3way by using a pc as the digital xo. This is not where my questions lay though.
For the low end I am definitely going to use the TC Sounds TC2+. Wheter or not I use a pair in a sealed enclosure or 4 in a dipole arangement is up for debate. I like the impact and taughtness of the sealed but most have said that a dipole is more 'accurate' in the end. If room correction can be done in the digital domain as well then wouldn't it be easy to minimize the downsides to a sealed low end?
For the high end I am torn between the SS9800 and a ribbon like the Fountek JP2. Besides vertical dispersion being limited with the ribbon, what may be the typical differences in sound between a good true ribbon and high quality hard dome? Air, detail, subtleness....?
For the mid I am very intrigued by the PHL 1220. I have owned a couple of systems that use the seas mag excel but I am looking for something different. I have not seen anyone who has used the 1220 or 1230. All general reports from other PHL gear seems to be quite positive. If you do a google search for the 1230 you find a place that actually has measurements.
Aside from the 1220, I have not seen a whole lot of people that have used the Audax 170C series (carbon fiber cone) but general reports are also good. The HiVi M6a is another good canidate but then I am right back in the same boat with all the other mag cones.
If people could make some comments on my driver selection I would greatly appreciate it.
In addition to driver selection, I have some general questions about xo implementation. How do you create a seamless crossover to the mid from the woofer? Since all these drivers that I have listed have pretty darned good passband responses without a whole lot of nasties in the stopband areas that need to be looked at, I should have a great deal of frequency area to vary the xo point. Would xoing the woofer in the 300Hz area be better or would a point around the lower range of the mid be a better choice? I am not sure if there is a rule of thumb to this.
That should give us a good place to start for the moment.
Thanks and look forward to corresponding with all.

3-way thoughts...
Hi Joel,
Sounds like quite a project you have in the works. Some thoughts
The TC Sounds 2+ sub should be excellent. Very, very similar to my AV-12s. I wish I would have had them dialed in better and the phase switch set correctly the day you listened to them. It made a big difference tweaking them more. They now integrate seamlessly to my ears. Anyway, good choice.
Ive heard the PHL 1120 in a 2-way that I was very impressed with. Its a very high quality paper driver with excellent sound quality. It will lack a bit of detail in comparison to harder cone drivers though. I do like the Aurium Cantus AC-130 MKII drivers Im using in the Omegarrays a lot. Very crisp, detailed and clean sounding. Theyd also work well in your application.
Instead of the JP-2s why not the JP-3s? Shorter is much better with a ribbon in a conventional speaker. I think youll find vertical dispersion to be the equal of a 1 dome but still have the benefits of a ribbon. It should have nearly all of the detail and air of the JP-3s you heard in my arrays. Crossover should be in the 2.5K 3K range.
I should have hauled out the JH3 Reference while you were there. Based on what Im reading in your post, you might have really enjoyed them. Imaging with a mid dome/ OWIII combination is very hard to beat in a point source speaker. The JP-3 would work extremely well too.
Best of luck!

Hey Jim,
I was actually driving through DM this past weekend but unfortunately didn't have a whole lot of time on my hands otherwise I would have tried to bug you some more.
I really want to hear those arrays now that the final bugs are worked out.
The things that I really loved about yours were the detail and dynamics. I just didn't have enough time with them to make a full judgement. Maybe I can get to DM again before I have to move yet another time and have a full session with the Reference's as well.
I will definitely take your comment about the smaller ribbon into consideration. My goal with the use of the computer is to be able to do room correction. With the correction I can get the sealed woofers to be free of room interaction. This kind of gives me the best of both worlds between dipole and sealed.
This is all kind of preliminary right now but I don't like not knowing where I am going next.

3-way thoughts...
Its too bad you didnt have some time this weekend. I kicked back on Sunday and just vegged most of the day. Youre more than welcome to stop by for a longer listening session when ever we can coordinate.
I like the JH3 Reference as well as any point source speaker Ive heard. However, Ive never heard a di-pole so I cant give that comparison. In comparison to my Omegarrays, the mid range is very, very close between the two. Vocals are comparable. Top end with the OWIII isnt quite as airy as the JP-3s but is very detailed. Bass and mid bass are very close in quality.
The arrays win in overall dynamics though. 10 drivers doing the job of one is effortless where as the single driver has to work a bit. The Morel MDM-55 mid dome rocks in my opinion. Exceptional imaging and detail. Ribbons work great with mid domes too. BTW, they have pin point imaging rather than the array variety so that might also be to your liking.
I could have lived very easily with the JH3 Reference if I hadnt gotten the bug to do an array. :-) Check out Ricks RC3R design. Hes used a number of different woofers to go with the JP-3 and MDM-55. I think it comes standard with a SS 8545 but I know hes used a W22 and my Focal 8K5412 too. Its a very flexible design. I also wanted to mention that a Focal 5W is a good candidate for a mid. Very transparent but a little tough to work with. It would be a toss up between the AC-130 and the 5W sound wise in my opinion and the AC-130 is easier to tame.
BTW, Im hosting the 2004 Iowa DIY event in Altoona October 23rd at the Adventureland Inn. Thats a Saturday. The Friday night before, Im going to have a get together for anyone that wants to come to my house and listen to the Omegarrays. Theyre too darn big to cart to the event so I thought Id serve sandwiches etc. and have a bit of a social get together for early arrivals. I hope you can make it. There should be some nice designs there again this year. Also, Dennis Murphy is planning on attending and Dave Ellis will be there again. Lots of fun!

Buy one of each to examine them, that is what I do when I'm
torn. Peace of mind.

The 1240 from e-speakers is popular. One review found here;
(if server busy, try later)
All general reports from other PHL gear seems to be quite positive.
In addition to driver selection, I have some general questions about xo implementation. How do you create a seamless crossover to the mid from the woofer?
Is that woofer able to operate with good sound if you
low pass around 200hz - 300hz? If you are not sure,
then test it before chosing a midrange driver.
If you think the woofer sounds great in this range, then you have
an option to use the JP2 mated to a PHL 1120, both high
sensitivity drivers. Should integrate well. If you chose a lower
sensitivity dome tweeter then is the sensitivity issue a problem
for you? Is this a 3 way active or passive design?
If the woofer works better under 100hz, then maybe consider
the 1240, lower sensitivity though, but more low end.
If you did use an active 3 way setup, then you can tweak the
crossover points later after it's built. Just set your active
crossover to some generic starting points and fine tune when
playing music.

What about considering the PHL 1660, which e-speakers considers among the best mids, for the MTM. The specs say that 2 PHL1660s will be good down to 300Hz. They have much higher power handling, 250Watts, and sensitivity, 97db.

Let me know if you want to buy my SS9800s. Pair for $175 + shipping.
One of the posts broke at the top during shipping but can be soldered back or wire can be soldered directly to post. Has very little use.

Need some help
Hey guys I need some help deciding what I should do next about my situation. I recently got a M6 wheel off ebay that was heated with paddle shift option. I got it yesterday and installed and tried the heating function but it did not work. I verified all the connection and tried again and nothing. At first I thought maybe my light for the heat function didn't work anymore. So I tried with my other sport wheel, which came from a M5 6 speed, and it worked. I also tried my original wheel that came with the car and it heated up also. So I came to the conclusion that obviously the new wheel heat function doesn't work.
I contacted the seller and got a reply within 20 mins and he said it worked before then he asked was it installed in a M or non M. I told him it was a non M but that a previous had worked fine. I have yet to receive a message back from him and that was at 420 PST yesterday.
My questions is should I file a claim with ebay/paypal? The item was misrepresented since nowhere in its description did it say the heat function did not work. The seller does not accept returns tho. Also his quick first reply then nothing after makes me slightly suspicious. Here's the link to the auction
. I didn't notice when I bought it but the wheel did not have the airbag mounting plate either, not a big deal since I used my old one but he doesnt mention that in the listing. I don't think the seller is scamming me but I don't want to wait around on this either.
What should I do?
Also I know I posted this on another forum but this seems more active some days and I need as many opinions as I can get since I will take action either this evening or tomorrow afternoon.

Bentonville, Ark. -- A Friday report by Reuters said that Wal-Mart Stores Inc. disclosed an agreement Thursday to sell more than 70 million shares by a firm controlled by members of the founding Walton family.
Walton Enterprises LLC, controlled by S. Robson Walton, Alice L. Walton, Jim C. Walton and the John T. Walton Estate Trust, registered for sale 70,615,608 shares of company stock. That represents about 2% of Wal-Mart's outstanding shares.
The 70.6 million shares were registered on behalf of several Walton charitable trusts. The stock will be re-sold by these trusts periodically through the end of 2017.
The descendants of Wal-Mart founder Sam Walton currently own about 49% of the company. These sales will reduce that stake by about two percentage points.
However, Wal-Mart is in the midst of share buyback program, so it's unclear what portion of the company the Waltons will end up owning after the share sales are completed.

A little peek
Anyway, here is my bedroom before. I promise it looks sadder in this picture than it did in real life.
Here it is painted and with my new big girl bed, which was delivered today! Still need to get new side tables and pictures, but you all have been with me on this very long journey, so I felt I had to share even though there is still a ways to go. (Only if Tommy is reading this...honey, we are almost done! :)I will keep you posted on my quest for bedside tables. We may end up getting the matching ones, but I would like to try a little harder on my non-matchy look. We'll see....

The Most Amazing Grilled Cheese EVER
First, I was thinking about grilled cheese because of my friend Catherine's grilled cheese/melt bar that she is opening. Then, the Food Network's Unwrapped had a segment on cheese featuring the World's Best Grilled Cheese Sandwich from Mimi's Cafe. You guys, that grilled cheese looked amazing.
I gathered all of the ingredients:
A good bread
Garlic Butter
Grated Parmesan
Sliced Cheese (I used Sharp Cheddar, Swiss and Iris Dubliner's Cheese)
The grocery store didn't have any garlic butter, so I used Brummel and Brown and mixed it with minced garlic.Spread that on the back of the sandwich and then dip it into the shredded parmesan. (Remember, you don't come here for my picture taking skillz.)
Place the bread cheese side down on the griddle, then add your slices of cheeses to each side of bread. I put my dubliner on one side and then my swiss and cheddar on the other side. Wait until they are sort of melty.

Logo Love
My sorority sister, Dawn, emailed me a week or so ago and is starting her own photography business in Austin. She is very talented and I cannot wait to share her site once she gets it up and running. She will be focusing on babies and families. (If I have any Austin readers, leave a message and I can have her send you her info.) Anyway, she was in need of a logo. And she was going to give me creative license, which is always very fun. (Obviously, she was very involved in the process, but there were no restrictions - just a girly logo.)
I had fun going back and forth with her and we both LOVE how it turned out:
I also wanted to share some of my other favorite logos that I have created over the years.
This next logo is from my friend Becky's business, Miss Bee's Specialties. Becky is BEYOND talented and artisitic. She does the most amazing work and sells some really, really amazing custom artwork, frames and stationery.
No longer in business anymore, I created this logo for a friend of a friend who had a custom card business. I have always loved this logo. She had the idea of a flower coming up out of the "i" and we both fell in love with this.
I created this logo for my friend Jackie who was starting a business selling nap mats and monogrammed items for kids. She has gone back to work full time and is no longer in business, but I loved how this logo turned out as well.
Now, my most famous logo has been for Sage Culinary Studio. Catherine and I used to work together and when I heard she was starting the studio, I just started creating logos and sending them to her. She probably thought I was crazy! The ideas evolved and we both came up with this.
Photo via Tulsa Food Blog
Catherine also has a coffee bar and melt bar (a make your own grilled cheese bar -- isn't that awesome???) coming soon to her Brookside location, which I have done logos for too.

Food Finds
However, last night I cooked Tommy and I this Target Brand Archer Farms Sweet Apple Chicken Sausage and we both LOVED it. They are only about 100 calories per sausage and were both sweet and savory. I also happened to find the world's tiniest picture just to give you a visual.
Another food find that I have found at Target is their four cheese risotto. Once it is completely cooked, I always add a few tablespoons of parmesan cheese and I may or may not add more once it is plated. It is pretty good and makes a different side item other than the typical pasta, potatoes or rice.

Happy Heart Day!
Iris and I became friends through our husbands. They have known each other since they were 5 and when we met we just clicked. We are on some weird telepathic level with each other. I will go to her house and she will have something I just bought (usually from Target, so maybe this isn't so weird). We own the same jeans (not from Target), same shoes, gloves, serving pieces, etc. All bought separate from each other.
Case in point, last night I showed up at her house wearing pretty much the same sweater. I told you, weird.
Even more fun is that Iris and I now live down the street from each other. They just built their house less than a block away and it is just amazing!
Look how cute her decor is!
Look at my tiny Valentine.

Around the House
Here is the color from the Valspar site. Here is the color (sort of -- this is with a flash and you know I am a horrible picture taker) on my wall. (This is to be a sneak peek, if you will. Our mattress is still awaiting the much discussed bed frame. And I still need side tables. And I am sure I need a lot of other things. But this serves the purpose.)

You know what I have a lot of right now?
Anyway, with PLENTY of spare time it does give me the luxury to go back through my starred items in Google Reader. Which leads me to this post.
A lot of the accessory items in my house have come from Southern Living at Home now called Willow House. One of my favorite all time items is my Flatware Caddy. I use it at all of my parties and showers. I just love it. It even looks pretty on your countertop. As a matter of fact, I got this for my sister-in-law for Christmas.
Willow House actually doesn't carry the above caddy anymore, but it is manufactured by Godinger company. (I got my sister-in-law's at Tuesday Morning.)
However, I am LOVING the new flatware caddy that Willow House is selling in its place. It would go perfectly in my kitchen. But I will refrain. Does one really need two flatware caddies? (Truth be told, the answer may be yes.)
All of this leads me to the starred item I came across. It is the cutest and very wallet friendly flatware caddy featured on eighteen25 and I LOVE it. This would be such a fun hostess gift and it is so economical to do. Assuming you have a cricut or Silhouette. If not, I guess it might be easier to just buy one of the flatware caddies above.
I would love this as a gift. Honestly, I might just make some myself because they are just so darn cute. Get the full directions here. All you need are Glass jars and vinyl. (And a cutting device.) I wish I had thought of this myself.

Bake and Freeze
So yesterday I made several items to bake and freeze and thought I would share the links.
Giada De Laurentiis' Baked Chicken and Pastina
This meal is AWESOME. Megan cooked it for dinner one night at her house and I have been in love ever since. YUM!
Another favorite is Mexican Chicken Casserole. Super easy and super yum. Clearly, if I can do these it won't be a problem for any of you!
If you have any other links to meals that freeze well, let me know. I am going to try to do this more often!

Creating a Family Health History
Family History and Disease Risk
Diseases Can Have Various Causes
Many things influence your overall health and likelihood of developing a disease. Sometimes, it's not clear what causes a disease. Many diseases are thought to be caused by a combination of genetic, lifestyle, and environmental factors. The importance of any particular factor varies from person to person.
If you have a disease, does that mean your children and grandchildren will get it, too? Not necessarily. They may have a greater chance of developing the disease than someone without a similar family history. But they are not certain to get the disease.
(Watch the video to learn more about why family health history is important. To enlarge the video, click the brackets in the lower right-hand corner. To reduce the video, press the Escape (Esc) button on your keyboard.)
Health Problems That May Run in Families
Common health problems that can run in a family include:
- Alzheimer's disease/dementia
- arthritis
- asthma
- blood clots
- cancer
- depression
- diabetes
- heart disease
- high cholesterol
- high blood pressure
- pregnancy losses and birth defects
- stroke.
Learn more about the importance of family history in some of these health problems at "Diseases, Genetics and Family History." (Center for Disease Control and Prevention)
Heritable Diseases
Some diseases are clearly heritable. This means the disease comes from a mutation, or harmful change, in a gene inherited from one or both parents. Genes are small structures in your body's cells that determine how you look and tell your body how to work. Examples of heritable diseases are Huntington's disease, cystic fibrosis, and muscular dystrophy.
Learn basic information about DNA.
See what role genetics may play in the risk for Alzheimer's disease.
Role of Lifestyle and Environment
Genes are not the only things that cause disease. Lifestyle habits and environment also play a major part in developing disease. Diet, weight, physical activity, tobacco and alcohol use, occupation, and where you live can each increase or decrease disease risk. For example, smoking increases the chance of developing heart disease and cancer. For common diseases like heart disease and cancer, habits like smoking or drinking too much alcohol may be more important in causing disease than genes.
Sun exposure is the major known environmental factor associated with the development of skin cancer of all types. However, other environmental and genetic factors can also increase a person's risk. The best defense against skin cancer is to encourage sun-protective behaviors, regular skin examinations, and skin self-awareness in an effort to decrease high-risk behaviors and optimize early detection of problems.
Learn more about the causes and risk factors for skin cancer.
Clues to Your Disease Risk
Creating a family health history helps you know about diseases and disease risks. It can also show the way a disease occurs in a family. For example, you may find that a family member had a certain disease at an earlier age than usual (10 to 20 years before most people get it). That can increase other family members' risk.
Risk also goes up if a relative has a disease that usually does not affect a certain gender, for example, breast cancer in a man. Certain combinations of diseases within a family -- such as breast and ovarian cancer, or heart disease and diabetes -- also increase the chance of developing those diseases.
Some Risk Factors Are Not Apparent
Even if they appear healthy, people could be at risk for developing a serious disease that runs in the family. They could have risk factors that they cannot feel, such as high blood pressure. They might not even know the disease runs in their family because they've lost touch with family members with the disease or because other family members with the disease have kept the information private. Another possibility is that family members who might have developed the disease died young in accidents or by other means. They might also be adopted and not share genes with members of their adoptive family.
Getting Professional Advice
Family members who think they might be at risk for a disease based on their family health history can ask their health care professionals for advice. The professional may order a test to see if the person has the disease or a risk factor for the disease. For instance, a mammogram can detect possible breast cancer, and a colonoscopy can find colon cancer. Many diseases are more treatable if they are caught early.
The first step toward better understanding of your family's health is to learn more about the health of close relatives such as parents, brothers and sisters, and children. Creating a family health history is one way to do that.

I have problem AGAIN :( When I click BOOT BT3 with KDE, in monitor turn out black screen on all time. What`s bootload a BT3?
You really need to learn on how to search this forum and Google.
Next time search this topic has been covered numerous times before.
you need to edit the xorg.conf file
in order to get your monitor to work.
There is also a tutorial that i did on getting a monitor to work with bt3
If after trying these steps and it still does not work then post back with the results and we can further help you
You also really need to provide much much more information to even have a hope of getting meaningful responses.
But i dont log in root. Is appear boot menu. I click all options so as to log in root, and nothing, black screen. I dont get to console tesx, anymore...
You need to give us more info. It appears that english may not be your first language, with that I can not help you, however take your time and try to post better information. What kind of computer are you using, did you check the backtrack wiki ?
located here http://backtrack.offensive-security....itle=Main_Page
Is your computer/laptop compatible?
What type of graphics card do you have?
These are things that we need to know in order to help you out.

BT2 is work...
I would suggest (and I could be wrong as I don't have a Nvidia Gforce to test against) you download the BT3 kernel and add the Nvidia drivers to it, you can download both from the BT wiki. then make a new cd or dvd and reinstall.
There maybe an easier, or better way. but I have did a little searching for you and it seems to be the same answer as others have done.
also read this thread:
This may help you to understand the problem better.

thanks for the info mack89..im glad one person out of thousands on this forum can actually offer some help and advice...I actually spent the time to clean out the throttle body and while i was in there i also cleaned out the idle control valve. I used crc throttle body cleaner i got from the local auto shop. I was able to verify that the throttle was indeed sticking by manually opening and closing the throttle with my hand from the engine bay. I cleaned out all the gunk as best as i could but once everything was back in place there was one incident that the problem happened again..i quickly stepped on the gas and it went back to normal. I assume the throttle is still sticking!!! where can i get that 3M stuff? i couldn't find it at kragen.

Examination Board: AQA Specification A
Since September 2010, all examination boards have offered three separate qualifications in English at GCSE level: English Language, English Literature and English.
English GCSE is a single course, offering a range of both language and literature topics, allowing students to demonstrate their use of English in real-life contexts.
English Language plus English Literature (combined) is a fully integrated course which allows for greater distinctiveness between disciplines. This results in the awarding of two separate GCSEs. The Literature element covers modern, global and heritage texts.
For all qualifications there are two tiers of entry: Foundation and Higher. Higher Tier gives access to B grade and above.
Q. How do I know if I have the ability to do English Language plus English Literature?
A. You will need to take your teacher's and the Head of Department's advice. If you enjoy reading and writing essays about plays, poems and novels and have achieved A/B grades in Year 9 then this could be a good choice for you. If you think you might wish to study English Literature at A level this would be a good choice.
Q. Can I change my mind once I have started in Year 10?
A. This will be difficult because although the syllabuses for English Language plus English Literature have some common content they do separate out and we will be choosing texts to suit the different sets.
All qualifications involve some Controlled Assessment units, both written and oral. This is worked, planned and executed in lessons, under the direct supervision of the teacher. Work must be kept in school at all times. The teacher will let students know when the final "high control" sessions will take place; they usually last for 3-4 hours and are done in normal lesson time. Written controlled assessments are in essay form. In written units, titles are set by AQA but teachers are free to choose texts that suit their students. In oral units we can also choose tasks that will suit the set, and even the individual student.

Of course many white feminists get that advocating for gender equality is valueless if you don't include equality for people of color too. Supporting women of color is a no brainer. Then there are a few with blind spots, who ostensibly get this idea, but then in practice fail to question their own internalized racist ideas.This is Ani DiFranco, singer, poet, equal rights activist, and to some feminist icon in words on economic and gender equality...If you're not angryyou're just stu … [Read more...]

Ask Experts & Get Answers to Your Questions - ASAP
This is a scam that has been around for awhile, below are several links that discuss this scam.
Can you please tell me how you first came into contact with this person?
I am going to add to the first answering expert whom I agreed with. I find this info from the bank itself and find no listing of the barrister in Spain. This is a hoax......
10:1 the barrister is asking you to front money prior to sending funds. I would suspect he is asking for your bank routing numbers as well.......give him no information that is personal in nature. Call the bank direct if you do not feel this is a scam. The bank has nothing to do with the Lottery.
Stanley, it is also imperative that you contact your bank immediately and tell them of this. If you have given any banking information such as routing numbers they can withdraw your savings. If any of this was via the internet then contact the below link (Federal FBI Assistance) and ask for help. Contact your local or state Police and file a complaint as well. I fully agree with your accepted answer above.

Water Wars Brewing In The Northeast
12/30/09 5:50PM Sacha Pfeiffer
| Download MP3
But as part of a collaboration with Northeast public radio stations, Sacha Pfeiffer of WBUR reports there are water wars brewing the region.
(Sound of flowing water)
(Pfeiffer) Bob Zimmerman stands by an old dam on the Charles River outside Boston. He's head of the Charles River Watershed Association, and he says even though the dam is gushing now, it's not always like this.
(Zimmerman) "Literally, at times in the summertime, particularly in August and early September, this would be a trickle coming over this dam, and there are times where it doesn't flow at all."
(Pfeiffer) When rivers run low, that threatens wildlife that depend on them for survival. Zimmerman says states need to get serious about limiting how much water is taken out of streams and rivers for human use.
(Zimmerman) "If we don't do that, these rivers are going to seriously suffer, and we really will run into a shortage-of-water problem."
(Pfeiffer) People get drinking water from many places, including reservoirs and wells. But we also get it from rivers and streams, where we share it with fish. That isn't easy. For one thing, stream flow isn't a constant. When snow melts in the spring, rivers rise. In the heat of the summer, they slow down -- yet that's when people want the most water. And it's when rivers have been pumped dry.
(Burt) "That really is not acceptable."
(Pfeiffer) Laurie Burt is commissioner of the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection.
(Burt) "The challenge is, how do we make sure that doesn't happen, but we are also providing water when it's needed and where it's needed?"
(Pfeiffer) Four prominent conservation groups recently resigned from a state panel in Massachusetts because of a new policy they said could let rivers turn to mud. They rejoined after Burt's office rescinded that policy.
(Burt) "What we urgently need, and has been needed for a very long time, is to be able to predict how much water can safely be withdrawn from a river basin."
(Pfeiffer) Because even in this water-rich region, demand threatens supply. In Connecticut and Massachusetts, thousands of fish were killed when rivers were pumped dry. Some reservoirs in New York are dangerously low. In Maine, Vermont and the rest of ski country, snow-making takes millions of gallons of water from streams and rivers.
(Gara) "People are so used to turning on the faucet and having a nice, clean, ample supply of water, and they don't understand all of the work and all of the money that goes into making sure that that water is coming to them in that way."
(Pfeiffer) Elizabeth Gara is executive director of the Connecticut Water Works Association. That state has proposed new rules that would redirect more water to rivers and streams and less to public use. But Gara warns this could hamper economic growth and force water utilities to restrict people from filling swimming pools and washing cars.
(Gara) "We have to be very careful when we deal with water allocation policies that we make sure that when we're trying to protect aquatic life, that we don't do that to the detriment of human life."
(Pfeiffer) But some states are already imposing tough restrictions. Vermont, for example, regulates how much water ski resorts can divert. Maine sets a minimum flow for its streams and rivers. And Massachusetts is working to define the amount of water that can be taken safely from its waterways. Mark Smith of the Nature Conservancy says more states should consider these kinds of steps.
(Smith) "It's often pitted as fish vs. people, or people vs. fish. But the issue that we're working on is how to make it an "and" statement -- that it's water for people and water for nature, and how do you really figure that out?"
(Pfeiffer) For now, there's no one answer. But as more streams and rivers in the Northeast sometimes run dry, more communities are tackling that question.

U.S. Supreme Court Hears Three ADA Cases in Two Days, Testing Federal Civil Rights Protections for People with HIV
Find Your State
Legal Help Desk
Our Sponsors
(NEW YORK, April 20, 1999) -- Lambda Legal Defense and Education Fund said Tuesday that upcoming hearings in three cases before the United States Supreme Court are major tests of federal civil rights protections provided people with HIV and AIDS.
Lambda assisted in friend-of-the-court briefs in all three cases involving the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and brought on behalf of three people with disabilities other than HIV. Noting that the ADA affords strong anti-discrimination protections for people with HIV, Lambda urged the High Court to uphold the law's promise of fair treatment for all people with disabilities.
On Wednesday, April 28, Catherine A. Hanssens, director of the Lambda AIDS Project, will be available outside the U.S. Supreme Court following hearings in Kirkingburg v. Albertsons and Sutton v. United Airlines. The day before, the justices hear arguments in Murphy v. United Parcel Service.
"An alarming Catch-22 binds these cases together -- if people gain some measure of control over their disabilities and are able to work, they risk losing federal anti-discrimination protections," said Hanssens.
Lambda took part in amicus briefs in Sutton and Murphy, and co-authored a brief in Kirkingburg with Bennett H. Klein, director of the AIDS Law Project of Gay & Lesbian Advocates & Defenders. The briefs argue that people with HIV and other disabilities whose impairments may not be extremely debilitating, or can be curbed using medical treatments, nonetheless face discrimination and should not be excluded from the ADA's protection.
Klein noted, "The cluster of cases in the High Court's docket signals the intense conflict over exactly who is protected by the ADA, and the outcome will profoundly affect the rights of people with HIV."
Lambda Legal Director Beatrice Dohrn, explaining the significance of all the cases to people with HIV, said, "The ADA is our most powerful weapon for combating the rampant epidemic of ignorance and fear about HIV and AIDS. Once an exception has been made for one kind of disability, an exception for HIV and AIDS likely will not be far behind."
At issue in Kirkingburg is whether or not ADA protections should be contingent upon the severity of a disability. The case involves Hallie Kirkingburg, a truck driver with monocular vision from Portland, Oregon, who has had an impeccable driving record since 1979. Kirkingburg was terminated by his employer even though a doctor deemed him able to drive a commercial vehicle safely.
Albertsons, the large grocery store chain that employed Kirkingburg, cited the impairment in firing him, but later argued in court that the monocular vision is not severe enough to be a "disability" that warrants ADA protections. Lambda's brief urged the justices to uphold a Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruling last year rejecting that reasoning.
Noting the parallel between Kirkingburg and many people with HIV who are able to work despite their infection, Hanssens said, "Disability does not mean inability. Many people with disabilities have the skills and qualifications to be excellent employees." She added, "The ADA was enacted so that discrimination does not lock those people out of jobs or career advancement."
Sutton and Murphy both raise the related question of whether the ADA protects disabilities that can be controlled or alleviated through medication. In both cases, the Tenth Circuit ruled that disabilities must be considered in light of mitigating circumstances before ADA protections can be extended.
The Sutton case was brought by Karen Sutton and Kimberly Hinton, twin sisters from Colorado with poor but correctable vision. The women were denied positions as United Airlines pilots despite having already amassed thousands of flight hours as lead pilots for regional commuter airlines, holding medical certificates from the Federal Aviation Administration, and having airline transport licenses that supercede those for commercial airline pilots.
In Murphy, United Parcel Service, relying on health guidelines issued by the U.S. Department of Transportation, terminated mechanic Robert Murphy for having high blood pressure. When left unmedicated, Murphy had argued that his condition affected his major life activities, including his ability to work.
Lambda urged reversal of the appellate rulings in each case, aware that Sutton and Murphy raise questions which also can be applied to people with HIV who are doing well on combination therapy. Lambda joined an amicus brief authored by the national Employment Law Project arguing that a disability, when being considered for ADA protection, should be evaluated in its untreated state.
"Drugs fight HIV, but not AIDS-phobia, fear, or ignorance. People who wage successful battles to overcome their disabilities should not be penalized and left defenseless against discrimination from those who nevertheless shun them," said Hanssens. She added, "The Tenth Circuit decisions effectively gut the ADA of its intended purpose -- fighting discrimination against people with disabilities who are perfectly able to perform their jobs," said Hanssens.
The Court this term has taken two other cases in addition to these three involving the civil rights law passed in 1990. Earlier this year, Lambda filed an amicus brief in one of them, Cleveland v. Policy Management Systems, and on April 21, the High Court will hear arguments in Olmstead v. L.C.
In Cleveland, a Dallas woman is fighting her employer who insists she is not eligible for ADA protections because she had filed for Social Security Disability benefits.
Last year, Lambda assisted GLAD in securing a precedent-setting victory in Bragdon v. Abbott, the Supreme Court case affirming the ADA's anti-discrimination protections for people with HIV from the moment of infection. Lambda is the nation's oldest and largest legal organization serving lesbians, gay men, and people with HIV and AIDS.
WHAT: With three ADA cases during two days of hearings, the U.S. Supreme Court tests federal civil rights protections for people with HIV; Lambda assisted in amicus briefs in all of them WHO: Lambda AIDS Project Director Catherine Hanssens will be available on the second day of hearings WHEN: Wednesday, April 28, 1999, following 10:00 a.m. argument WHERE: United States Supreme Court, 1 First Street, NE, Washington, DC CONTACT: Peg Byron 212-809-8585 or 888-987-1984; Catherine Hanssens 212-809-8585; Bennett Klein 617-426-1350

Raven Concealment...great holster but long lead time.
This is a discussion on Please recommend me a Kydex OWB holster... within the Defensive Carry Holsters & Carry Options forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; I have a Fobus paddle holster for all of my Glocks and use them often.

I have a Fobus paddle holster for all of my Glocks and use them often. They make plenty of different styles to fit what you are looking for.
Fobus Holster: Paddle Holsters
Good luck.
Stop whining and go do something that makes a difference!
If you think that I may be talking to you, then I am.
Raven Concealment...great holster but long lead time.
"Si vis pacem, para bellum."
I rock a Fricke Holsters Gideon Elite every day. It keeps my Service size XD9 comfortably, and no one has made me yet. I also carry a spare 16rd mag in his Joab horizontal holder and it is also incredible in both concealment and speed of reload from concealment. Awesome combo.
BTW, he usually gets the holster out in 2-3 weeks.

"It is your evil that will be sought by us. With every breath we will hunt them down. Each day we will spill their blood, until it rains down from the skies. Do not kill. Do not rape. Do not steal. These are principles that every man from every faith can embrace." -McManus twins Boondock Saints
Ditto on the Dale Fricke Gideon Elite. I carry a weapon 5 days a week as a plainclothes officer. I used the Raven Concealment Holster for a few years and really liked it. After reading online about the Gideon Elite, I purchased one and having been using it daily for about two years and never plan on changing holsters. I too am left-handed and both my Glock 19 and 23 are worn in this holster.
I have holsters from Raven and Crown. Make sure you know what cant and cut you want before you order. (IE: straight drop, 10 degree. reduced body shield or full sized?)
Both companies have a lifetime no question asked replacement guarantee.
Single Mag holders from Raven and a Double mag from Off the Grid.
All of these companies rock.
The wait time for a Raven has dropped significantly. They have the quick ship holsters and I believe quick ship mag holders too? I could be wrong about the mag holders??
Anyway, take your pick. Prices are all pretty much competitive with each other, the exception is Raven.. They tend to be a hair higher on the $ scale for holsters, oh and ditto for secret city.
Raven Concealment Systems
Welcome to Crown Holsters! - Crown Holsters
Custom Kydex Holsters
I don't have any experience with
K-25 Holsters - Secret City Weaponeers
but I have heard good things about them.
Good luck!
I would stay away from the kytac unless you know him. Good holsters, I had one, quality product. Mine was second hand though. People havent had teh best reviews on his customer service dealing with him first hand.
The problem with Raven holsters is that being a lefty, they don't have any quick ship holsters.
I am going to end up with X-Concealemnt is what I am leaning towards. Thanks for all of the suggestions.
Does anyone know of a relatively low ride leather OWB? Perhaps one without a tremendous wait time?
I use the Raven Phantom and have been very pleased with it. Easy to draw, sticks close to your body, multiple methods of attachment. Quality piece of gear.
I like my Blackhawk. Comes with belt slides or a paddle. Adjustable cant and height. Retention.
Galco has a belt slide with Kydex that should be in stock someplace. they have a nice finish on the leather, and the leather is more unfinished inside the Kydex area (where the leather meets the gun). you can use the Galco Draw Ez on it to get the gun to come out as easy as you would like. Or just break it in. I have one that holds well and does not rattle when you walk around. That is a problem I have with one of the blackhawk holsters I have (gun rattles). I also don't like to push a button to remove the gun. There was a cop that discharged his weapon with one of those holsters at the mall a few weeks ago.
Look up CX2 holsters by armedcivilian556 on youtube
The best holster for OWB carry for a Glock is their own Glock Sport holster. It holds the weapon secure and it really holds it close to ur body. Perfect in every way. I have a large tote full of different holsters and this Glock one I always go back too. It's also thin in thickness.
I admit that I'm a Comp-Tac fan. I have both IWB and OWB (the one I wear the most) for my G26, P239 Sig and 229. Here's the left hand Comp-Tac paddle holster with FBI cant and mag pouch:
ETA - I've only had the holster for the G26 a few years, but I've used the same model for my 239 since around 2005 or so and it's held up very well with little holster wear on the gun.

About what? What's ESOF all about?
The European Student Orchestra Festival (non-profit organisation) organises events which bring European student orchestras closer to each other. Classical music is the bonding factor uniting the student musicians and creating a network of university symphony orchestras all over Europe. ESOF creates opportunities for the orchestras to perform concerts within the framework of the festival but also provides an array of support-activities for members of the orchestra, active board members and orchestra directors during and in between the festivals.
There is no I in TEAM, nor in ESOF, but there is an E major in both.
The organising team of ESOF consists of 8 enthusiastic members, gathered around the idea of organising a festival for student orchestras by Pieter Lembrechts, the president. All of them have a strong background in music in general and in the world of university ensembles in particular. Both professionally and in their spare time, they have collected an impressive palmares of event organisations.
Life is a box of festivals and colloquia.
Could it be true?!? Stay tuned!
The third edition of the festival: April 5 – 9, 2017. Leuven remains the host city for a new and memorable experience. This festival is longer than the previous ones, hosts more orchestras and offers more activities, while maintaining the same quality, to enjoy it even more. Click for more information.
Leuven, April 23 – 26, 2015. View the pictures and films, read the comments, to see the 'magic' which came alive through the gathering of seven orchestras. Do check the numbers behind this project and discover with us that ESOF'15 was more than the sum of its parts.
A new festival is born: from this moment on, classical music shrunk the distance between the cities of Europe. See here some visual memories of the first steps.
More to come!
ESOF invites conductors of European student orchestras to a colloquium in Leuven. Workshops, presentations and a roundtable discussion combined with several cultural and gastronomic 'extras': All this to entice your interest and give you adequate information as to the effect such a festival can have on your work with your young orchestra. Our first colloquium was a success. Thanks to all who joined and contributed!

Boom Shaka is an international Roots Reggae group, recording and touring the world since its inception in 1986.
This is also the site for the annual Every Day is a Day for Love festival. The festival is being launched in February of 2018 to remember our brother Trevy, and to give the gift of music to the people of Dominica and the world.
Many players have been part of Boom Shaka during the years that the group has performed live, but the most lasting and perhaps most well-known lineup is:
Trevy Felix – Lead vocals, guitar
Ray Felix – Bass, vocals
Lesterfari Simbarashe – Lead guitar, vocals
Binghi-I Cornwall – keyboards
Wadi Gad – Drums, percussion
Boom Shaka performed all over America, in Brazil, Africa, Europe and points beyond. The group released five albums and a single, and Trevy released several solo albums (see the discography for details).
"Even from when I was growing up, music really help me seek education, to read certain things and to further my knowledge. You know what I'm saying? Reggae music, man! Like when you listen to music and certain man chant two psalms, give praises. Certain man tell you 'bout what a gwan in South Africa, certain man tell you 'bout what a gwan in Jamaica, right on the spot! And it's tradition too – of African music. It a go back centuries, ya know! Where musician would a really document the people dem history man. It's the same purpose we serving in this twenty-first century. It's the same purpose. It's a great tradition we have of that. Music haffe defend the people, ultimately. For I and I that has always been the main focus. Music haffe involve the people and it haffe secure some understanding of creation so the yout dem can have some direction. Some instruction on how they're going to live their life on the planet, seen?"
– Trevy Felix

broiler problem
I have a Kenmore gas range. model 790.78813402
Recently, when I turn on the broiler, which is on the top of the oven, the igniter glows, gas comes out, but it does not light right away, resulting in the oven filling up with gas and then finally igniting, causing a small explosion in the oven.
After searching around, I didn't find a recall and I think I may have narrowed it down to a faulty broiler element.
Should I try replacing the element and see if that fixes the problem?
You have found the golden goose, sir.
First, make sure the thing is faulty.
Next, get an expensive house and fill it with priceless antiques.
Remove the antiques. Store them somewhere else. These should all be flammable by the way. And of course insure everything.
Now, put some steaks in the broiler, open the door a bit, and leave to get some beer at the grocery store.
Repeat as necessary until you come home to a pile of ashes.
If you really want to see something, do this when a hurricane is bearing down on you.
I guess I should mention that if this doesn't work the first few times, you should turn off the gas and let it dissipate before you enter the house.
Most likely igniter. They get to about 3000 degrees and over time they degrade. Would give the symptoms you describe.
Is the igniter part of the element, or something different?
Glow igniter will be a replaceable part.
It glows hot enough to ignite the gas. Sometimes they will glow red, but will not glow hot enough.

Rode Stereo Video Mic
Taking on-camera audio to a higher level
By Kendall Scott
Printer-Friendly Version
Today's compact, high-powered consumer and prosumer video cameras are able to deliver very high grade video images at a relatively modest cost. This recent race towards smaller feature packed cameras has almost always compromised audio quality while furthering video features in leaps and bounds. Let's face it, we of course buy a video camera for the best picture possible, yet we must always revert to the well known adage that bad audio will ruin great video. The most spectacular video images taken at any level are only strengthened by the audio that compliments them.
Rode has definitely taken a step forward in the fight for better on camera audio with the release of their new Stereo VideoMic. The first noticeable mark in quality and value is in its construction. Rode has decided to deliver this mic in cast aluminum, keeping it lightweight and yet more durable than an equivalent plastic body. Secondly, the integral camera mount slides directly into the camera�s hot shoe suspending the working body of the mic with shock absorbing elastic. There is no need to purchase a secondary shock mounting system. Plus, all control switches and indicators are easily viewed and accessed from its rear panel.
The stereo X/Y pickup configuration gives you the ability to pick up the true ambience of the recording space while still delivering a good amount of rear sound rejection. With an 1/8" inch mini extension cable it can even be placed on a boom pole or tripod allowing you to achieve the most advantageous mic placement for any situation you might encounter. The included furry wind muff compliments the internal windshield allowing this mic to be used anywhere from outdoor events and weddings to controlled studio environments and location sound applications.
The Rode Stereo VideoMic represents an unprecedented value for improving your audio for video results.
