Downtown live music venue Musica plays host to local band showcase, Friday and Saturday
This weekend downtown music venue Musica (51 E. Market) has two nights featuring some pretty darn good local bands.
First up is Friday night which will be headlined by the indie rock & folk flavored band Bethesda (Shanna Delaney, Eric Ling, Justin Rife, Jesse Sloan, Dan Corby, Christopher Black, and part-timer Estee Beasley) who released a well received EP last year called Dreamtiger & Other Tails that is apparently going to get the band some quality background music time on a variety of shows on the Discovery Network as well as Showtime, MTV, Oxygen, VH1, and E!.
That's not to bad for an unsigned and kinda quirky indie band.
Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band coming to Quicken Loans Arena in April
Ok, got that out of the way, here is the official word from The Boss and Livenation

XD-V70L Dropouts
Like (0)
Hi All,
I've recently switched to all Line 6. I was previously all Shure PGX.
Currently, I have (2) XD-V70, (2) XD-V70L & (1) Relay G50.
I use these for my DJ business. Doing primarily weddings.
My wedding ceremony setup features the (2) XD-V70L (one for officiant, and 2nd for groom), and I have also started using the Relay G50 receiver
(with the handheld from one of my XD-V70) for any readers.
I have both receivers rackmounted in a 1U space, with antenna rack mounted above
receivers. With one set of antennas for both receivers, properly daisy chained w/ terminator (as per info in manual).
The G50 sits on top of my case.
Problem I'm having is that although I can complete my sound checks fine (with NO issues), during the ceremony
one (or both) of the XD-V70L transmitters with start having dropouts.
Symptoms are: Sound will just cut in/out. The LED readout on a receiver will go from all green, to all red, to nothing in less than a second.
Then return to all green again. I have had same thing from either transmitter to their respective receiver, but don't recall every having them
both cut out simutaneously.
Ceremonies typically run 10 - 30 minutes, and issue appears to start anytime from 5 minutes on.
I do all my usual surveying beforehand. Confirming line of site. Obviously giving each mic it's own channel.
I make sure wifi on my laptop is off, and make sure to put my cell phone in airplane mode.
The case is an SKB case.
Other items in case are:
(1) Whirlwind Mix-5S Mic Mixer
(1) Cortex MIX-1RU Line Mixer
(1) Furman Power Conditioner
(1) Behringer Feedback Destroyer (curently shut-off & hasn't been used in months)
Ideas/Suggestions/Possible Fixes?
Which LED readout, left , right or middle ??

All three Audio, Battery & RF.
All three would not be from an RF dropout. It sounds more like either the transmitter or the receiver is losing its power supply.
Does the LCD screen remain lit while the LEDs drop off?
My first guess would be that the transmitters have lost power. You could try switching batteries. They may not be seated or there may be a size issue?? Are you using rechargables?

I'm pretty sure LCD remains on when LEDs go from green, to red, to off, then back to green.
Not using rechargeable, using regular alkaline.
Since issue happens to both transmitters, what is possbilty they both have power supply issues?
It is possible that you have hardware issues with the transmitters. But her's the part that is puzzling ... I can understand the RF and Audio LEDs going off or red from a dropout, but the battery indication would only go off if the transmitter was shutting off. It would not be affected by dropouts.
Are you certain that the battery LEDs are going off?

Yes, I agree that behavior (of battery LED going off as well) is strange, but that is indeed happening.
Again, they shut off for anywhere from a split second, to a few seconds. Similar to what you get when you first turn receiver on.
So it's sounding more & more that my transmitters may be defective.
Both of them .... which is also bizarre, unless they are from same manufacturing "run".

After rethinking this, it makes perfect sense that RF issues would also affect battery meter (on receiver).
Since if the transmitter has RF issues, and thus does NOT have a good signal back to receiver, it wouldn't be able to relay battery status either. Right?
Anyway, I got the return info & UPS tag from Line 6 support, but after speaking with them, it appears that turnaround time may be up to a month!
Unforunately, I'm in the middle of my wedding season, and being without my lavs (even with their current issues) for that much time is unacceptable. I guess I'm going to have to limp along for now. Stinks.
I had been an avid Line 6 cheerleader until this issue; with not just one, but both of my lavs.
I just had a collegue looking for advise on switching his lavs to Line 6.
But until I get my issue resolved, I'm hesitant to recommend he make the switch.
I may have another answer for you. Please email me directly ... email@example.com
Another low-tech option to consider (a bit lagging in time, having been away for a while):
You might put a thick rubber band (e.g. one of those about 1/4" to 1/3" wide) around the bodypack to hold the door tightly shut even if the "door latch" gets momentarily touched.
I had the batteries fall out completely once when the speaker pushed the door latch (instead of the mute) without looking. Another time the door opened, then was pushed back shut immediately, but didn't quite latch tightly. The rubber band has eliminated those issues completely for 'novice' users.
Did you take a look at the "troubleshooting" section of the FAQ? http://line6.com/community/docs/DOC-1957
Have you tried switching the channels so that the beltpacks use the other receivers? That would rule out the receivers?
What range are we talking about? Indoors? Outdoors?

Yes, I did read FAQ. Reagrding the drop outs questions (in FAQ), here are my responses to those specifically.
Have you tried switching the channels so that the beltpacks use the other receivers?
No. But have used the handheld from my XD-V70, and problem (drop-outs) does not appear to happen.
What range are we talking about? Indoors? Outdoors?
Anywhere from 50 - 150 ft. All Outdoor (thus far).
#2 ... clothing should be much of an issue ... unless it is metallic.
#3 Line 6 antennas will be back in stock end of June. Almost any 2.4G antenna can be substituted. You just need to pay attention to connections, gain and pattern control to fit your needs. Alternately, you could extend one or both rubber duckie antennas with a 5-10' cable and fix it to a mic stand (or other). Should be fine as long as you keep the cable under 10'.
#4 take a look at our antenna guide http://l6c.scdn.line6.net/data/l/0a06434d162524dcad0a0c6112/application/pdf/XD-V70%20Antenna%20Setup%20%28Rev%20C%29%20-%20English.pdf
#5 It may seem as a "duh" question. But because XD-V's channel lock you can use the same channel twice at very close distances. I have done it at less than 8 feet apart, so it's easy enough to not realize that you have two on the same channel. It is one of those "I just gotta ask" question however.

djronh1... I am having the EXACT same problem with my TBP12 in the EXACT same usage... for ceremonies at weddings. My handheld does NOT experience dropouts in the EXACT same locations. Please advise as to what your FIX was, so I can follow suit. Thanks, Top DJ... Ron Folse, Louisiana
dboomer... Can you help me with this EXACT same problem that djhronh1 had?
Greetings from Down Under, O Esteemed Namesakes...
Given that the THH12 handhelds are far less prone to the problem, I'm surmising that this issue largely arises from the less favourable transmitting antenna location that, regrettably, must attend the use of bodypacks.
My two cents worth stems from the repeated torture endured by my TBP12's, in that I regularly attach them to (often soaking wet) rugby referees for match-long PA coverage right up to (and sometimes far in excess of, using P180 paddles and my XD-V70's quad-diversity RF1 frequencies) their quoted 300 foot maximum range.
In my case, Dan Cornett's excellent "wide rubber band" tip for holding the battery door closed is obviated by first wrapping the entire bodypack transmitter in a nitrile rubber disposable glove, (a small hole in a convenient "finger" being cut for the mic cable) then squeezing it into one of these really cheap but truly excellent carrier belts:
Though some marriages may be indeed prove to be gruesome, I wouldn't expect your application to need the rubber gloves, ...but, having first tried these belts for referees, I now find them far quicker to "click fit" under formal wear than the transmitter alone, so I've taken to using them for all sorts of commercial and presentation work.
As I'm sure you've found, fashion dictates that belts be worn increasingly less often and (aside from actually providing a mounting point) the design of those I mention allows open and easy access to the on/off and mute switches, with the TBP12's excellent dual push-button "Lock/Unlock" function easy to "braille-squeeze" operate through the neoprene wall of the pouch, given that each transmitter's "state" is eminently visible at the front-panel of the relevant receiver.
Most importantly in the light of this conversation, these Tune belts (in common with any similar pouch) enable a body-absorbtion-negating "trick" (exclusive to Line 6 TBP's, as far as I know) for the transmitting antenna that really does help increase the range before the dreaded RF dropouts occur.
This involves using your multi-tool's (or any other) Philips head screwdriver to turn Line 6's ingenious wedge-shaped clip "upside down", whereupon it can easily be positioned to act as a "spacer" that makes the antenna "stand off" from the body when the whole unit is in the pouch, given that a much more secure attachment is now being derived from the carrier belt rather than the bodypack's clip itself.
Aside from being lightning fast to fit comfortably and RF transparent, the belt's neoprene wetsuit material also provides a valuable buffer against sweat and body-induced capacitive attenuation of RF, as well as being really handy for attaching PVC electrical tape to "pre-pack" label each transmitter, be it by colour-code, by being written on with permanent marker, or both.
For best moisture tolerance, the PVC tape needs to be wrapped right around the neoprene and stuck to itself.
(I've also spent a few, very few, extra bucks to carry a couple of these http://www.amazon.com/Tune-Belt-SW-Extender/dp/B003FO0GAW/ref=pd_cp_e_3 for what the airlines call "C.O.S", being "Customers/Clients Of Size".)
I keep them (the belts, not necessarily the clients) fresh by washing them, quite separately from any other clothing.
Like my wetsuit, the Tune belts (being of the same material) have happily and frequently survived a gentle detergent (no bleach, colour enhancer or whitening agent) and the "Wool" cycle of my washing machine, wherupon both drip dry really quickly.
Unlike the clients, ...some of whom may themselves be "drips".
Hi RonMarton... I really appreciate your contribution of information concerning the use of the TBP12. However, my situation is definitely not caused my the mute button. For since I've been experiencing the rather embarrasing dropout moments while a ceremony is in progress, I recently tested the unit myself... before a ceremony... carefully holding the transmitter in my hand... with no possible way to inadvertently press the mute button. After experiencing the same dropout situation, as usual, and as I moved around, I then grabbed my handheld and did the same movmements. The handheld had NO dropouts. Needless to say, I did NOT use the TBP12. It is definitely unusable for any event at this time...
RonMartin... I did just look at my beltpak transmitter, and the battery cover does not close properly, as you noted in your previous posting. However, in pressing on the battery cover to move it in and out, etc., I see no loss of power on the LCD screen. So, I doubt that the battery cover is the culprit. Thanks... Ron Folse
I never intended to imply that the "Mute" button was implicated in any way, Ron F...
...Just that (aside from ease of "dressing") the Tune Belts I'm using allow easy operation of all TBP12 options.
You'll appreciate that the very act of your THH12's transmitting antenna being held in free space (totally clear of the RF-attenuating "sack of seawater" that constitutes a human) is what has allowed succesful operation, ...despite what I believe you've now PROVEN to be the marginal reception afforded by the current disposition of your receiving antennae.
So, the convenience and RF assistance afforded to TBP12's by Tune Belts notwithstanding, it's apparent that you'll need to revise your receiving antenna arrangements, a need that will progressively become more urgent as more and more "stuff" becomes wireless.
First stop is Line 6's excellent guide to configuring a receiving antenna scheme for your venue/s, here :
Then here for LMR-195 cabling and cable-compensated paddle antennae:
With correct reception arrangements, you'll soon enjoy (as I do) what I believe to be the matchless sound quality, freedom and flexibility afforded by Line 6's XD-V systems.
Incidentally, I've neither affiliation with, nor particular loyalty to, Line 6.
Feel free to click on my pink pic (at left) for background info and details of my rig.
RonMartin... My response from dboomer was similar to yours. It does appear I need to restructure my antenna system. However, after paying well over $500 for a Line 6 wireless system, I find the need to do more to have it work properly at around 50ft away and within line-of-site is quite unpalatable. I noted that the P180 paddles are virtually unobtainable, so if I were to devise the recommended "ducky raising", what method have you found to mount the "duckies" to a standard screw-mount mic stand? Also, what are the best cables to use, and where can they be found at a reasonable price (10 ft length seems optimal)? As usual, thanks for your "down-under" assistance and expertise in the matter. P.S. I do like your Tune Belt "idea", as well... which I'm certain would be very useful for female wedding officiants that sometimes have no belts or pockets :-)
"Quite unpalatable" is a very polite way of putting it, Mr Folse !
"Livid" would be closer to where I'd be...
I just wish we'd been in touch, (or you'd been better advised) before your purchase.
Aaaanyway, ...no use crying over spilt signals.
The fact is that each location in the world of RF will interact with signal propagation and reception in its own unique way, so no radio mic system (not even the amazingly robust, digital spread-spectrum, four-frequency-diversity RF1 scheme of the XD-V's) can be unequivocally guaranteed to cover its maximum stated range.
However, the only testimony that I can personally (hand on heart) offer in this context ...is to say that I know of nothing that even comes close to matching Line 6's XD-V systems' performance per dollar ratio.
Now, down to business. In particular, the business of getting the maximum performance from your receiver/s for the minimum additional cost.
My reading "between the lines" has me thinking that your receiver/s may have been neatly installed in a location that "looked like" it should work really well.
What's implied in both Don Boomer's and my earlier advice is that subsequent RF performance seems to indicate that this "permanence" was premature, so a (probably inconvenient) reinstallation would seem to be required.
To this end, I'd suggest a "re-birthing" to yield a "re-berthing". (The decision of whether or not to mount an actual ceremony for this is entirely yours.)
What we're trying to do is walk the receiver around in an attempt to find a new "home" that yields the highest number of green-lit segments in its right-hand "RF" column of LEDS.
Bear in mind that (in a permanent arrangement such as yours) access to the front panel controls will only be needed for initial set-up, so places such as high up (the maximium being with the front panel just reachable from the ground) inside a cupboard, wall-unit or wardrobe, even if on the "wrong side" of a timber wall, are quite OK, provided that any such barriers to line of sight are not also barriers to (or reflectors of) RF.
So no metal, plaster, brick or stone in the way. Plastic, timber and most synthetics are fine.
Ideally we'd like our "weird" location to yield a rock-solid, fully-lit column of green RF lights. This would mean that, subject to a more intensive "temporary long XL cable hooked-up" walk and talk test, the whip antennae won't need extending.
As you now say that we're only talking about a 50 foot range, I feel that this will almost certainly be the case.
However, in the unlikely event that a fully lit RF column cannot be obtained, the location with the highest reading will have to be the starting point for the trial to be repeated.
Only now we'd be leaving the receiver and "walking" the whip antennae around at the end of the very longest cables they can stand, being these:
Bear in mind that that they can be mounted "BNC connector up or down" and are light enough to be secured with things such as cable-ties or even duct tape.
It's just that they'll need to be permanently angled for best coverage, the easiest way to visualise this being to imagine this coverage as a giant apple, the apple core representing the orientation of the whip. The depression at the "apples's stem" defines the shape of the antenna's top RF dead spot, (or "suck-out") with the depression at the other end of the "apple's core" denoting its equivalent at the bottom.
Painting over them and their fixings is also fine, provided care is taken to prevent any liquid contamination of their BNC's (first seal them with electrical tape) and only water soluble paints are applied.
If the supplied "through-connect" bulkhead mounts are too bulky, a standard BNC video "barrel" will do for connection.
Ron's points about splaying the antennas is important as well as using the LEDs to show best reception. The graphic in the LCD screen is actually RSSI and you gat get a good indication of how your antenna placement is from looking at them.
Also I should mention that you can turn on your receiver and check for the best channels to use while your transmitters are turned off. If you see red LEDs on the RF ladder you should avoid using those channels and select those with little or no red LEDs showing. Red LEDs indicate RF activity/interference on that channel.
It is not untypical that the beltpacks have a slightly shorter range in practice than the handhelds. This is usually caused because they are typically used a bit lower to the ground (so they typicall have more line of sight issues than the handhelds do) and when used up next to a body there is always a bit more loss of transmission power.
Are the RF green LEDs going out on the receiver when this happens? Assuming nothing is broken, that means you are out of range according to the local conditions.
What I would suggest is raising up your receiver's antennas to about 6 to 8 feet above the deck. That is easily done with the paddle antennas or you could add abut 6 feet of antenna cable and place the stock antennas up on a mic stand. Even better would be to flash your systems with the new 2.0 firmware as there are some measurement tools included so you can actually measure what your antennas are doing. Small movements in the antennas can make a very big difference in peformance.
Stay in the mix and in the know.

The fit is wonderful, not too tight and not too lose. The pockets and tabs on the shoulder give an extra touch and helps the shirt stand out from the regular button down. The billowy fabric hardly wrinkles! The clean line of the form and accents on the front seam give me an effortlessly polished and sleek look. Also, I love that I can wear this shirt out on the weekends with jeans or to work with pants and skirts. It's quite versatile! I may buy the top in pink too!

Science Fair Project Encyclopedia
Scientific classification
Scientific classification or biological classification refers to how biologists group and categorize extinct and living species of organisms. Modern classification has its roots in the system of Carolus Linnaeus, who grouped species according to shared physical characteristics. These groupings have been revised since Linnaeus to improve consistency with the Darwinian principle of common descent. Molecular systematics, which uses genomic DNA analysis, has driven many recent revisions and is likely to continue to do so. Scientific classification belongs to the science of taxonomy or biological systematics.
Contents |
Early systems
The earliest known system of classifying forms of life comes from the Greek philosopher Aristotle, who classified animals based on their means of transportation (air, land, or water).
In 1172 Ibn Rushd (Averroes), who was a judge (Qaadi) in Seville, translated and abridged Aristotle's book "de Anima" (Animals). This book was translated into Latin by Mitchell the Scot .
The next major advance in developing scientific classification was made by the Swiss professor, Conrad von Gesner (1516 - 1565). Gesner's work was a critical compilation of life known at the time.
The exploration of parts of the New World next brought to hand descriptions and specimens of many novel forms of animal life. In the latter part of the 16th century and the beginning of the 17th, careful study of animals commenced, which, directed first to familiar kinds, was gradually extended until it formed a sufficient body of knowledge to serve as an anatomical basis for classification. Advances in using this knowledge to classify living beings bear a debt to the research of medical anatomists, such as Fabricius (1537 - 1619), Petrus Severinus (1580 - 1656), William Harvey (1578 - 1657), and Edward Tyson (1649 - 1708). Advances in classification due to the work of entomologists and the first microscopists is due to the research of people like Marcello Malpighi (1628 - 1694), Jan Swammerdam (1637 - 1680), and Robert Hooke (1635 - 1702).
John Ray (1627 - 1705) was an English naturalist who published important works on plants, animals, and natural theology. The approach he took to the classification of plants in his Historia Plantarum was an important step towards modern taxonomy. Ray rejected the system of dichotomous division by which species were classified according to a pre-conceived, either/or type system, and instead classified plants according to similarities and differences that emerged from observation.
Linnaean taxonomy
Two years after John Ray's death Carolus Linnaeus (1707 - 1778) was born. His great work, the Systema Naturae , ran through twelve editions during his lifetime (1st ed. 1735). He is best known for his introduction of a method of modern classification; he created systematic zoology and botany in their present form.
Linnaeus adopted Ray's conception of species, but he made the concept a practical reality by insisting that every species must have a unique Latin binomen, that is, a double name — the first half to be the name of the genus, common to several species, and the second half to be a single word, which is called the specific epithet. This convention is now referred to as binomial nomenclature, and the name formed from the two parts is known as the scientific name or "systematic name" of a species. When a species is further subdivided, the trinomial nomenclature is used. For a scientific name to be correctly written, the genus name must be capitalized, the species spithet must be in lower case and an author label and publication details have to be added.
Before Linnaeus, long many-worded names had been used, sometimes with one additional adjective, sometimes with another, so that no true names were fixed and accepted. Linnaeus' system made it easy to identify unambiguously any given species of plant or animal. He proceeded further to introduce into his system a series of groups: genus, order, class.
The Linnaeus System works by placing each organism into a layered hierarchy of groups. Each group at a given layer is composed of a set of groups from the layer directly below. Simply knowing the two-part scientific name makes it possible to determine the other six layers.
The groupings (taxa) of taxonomy from most general to most specific are:
Several acronym mnemonics have been made for these, for instance King Phillip came over for good soup.
Intermediate ranks may be created by adding prefixes, for instance:
- Class
- Subclass
- Superorder
- Order
- Suborder
- Infraorder
- etc.
In addition, species are often subdivided into subspecies and other infraspecific categories (see subspecies, variety, subvariety and form). In certain circumstances prefixes beyond sub- need be used. Some other ranks are also sometimes added. For instance, domains or empires may be given above the level of kingdom, tribes between the levels of family and genus, and sections and series between the genus and species.
Modern developments
The general approach Linnaeus took to classifying species and many of his taxonomic groups have remained standard in biology for at least two centuries. It is now generally accepted that classification should reflect the Darwinian principle of common descent, so that taxa include a single section of the evolutionary tree. Such groups are called monophyletic groups (see also paraphyletic and polyphyletic).
Since the 1960s a trend called cladistic taxonomy or cladism has emerged as a rival to more traditional phylogenetic classification. In this approach taxa are identified with clades, i.e. they can only be monophyletic. In these approaches, the ranking system in Linnaean taxonomy is often not used. A new formal code of nomenclature, the PhyloCode, is currently under development, but many of its rules are in conflict with established codes of nomenclature (both for plants and animals), and it is unclear how the different codes will coexist.
The usual classifications of three species follow: the Fruit Fly so familiar in genetics laboratories (Drosophila melanogaster), Humans, and the Sweetbay Magnolia.
Fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster)
Domain | Eukarya |
Kingdom | Animalia |
Phylum | Arthropoda |
Class | Insecta |
Order | Diptera |
Family | Drosophilidae |
Genus | Drosophila |
Species | D. melanogaster |
Human (Homo sapiens)
Domain | Eukarya |
Kingdom | Animalia |
Phylum | Chordata |
Subphylum | Vertebrata |
Class | Mammalia |
Subclass | Eutheria |
Order | Primates |
Suborder | Haplorhini |
Family | Hominidae |
Genus | Homo |
Species | H. sapiens |
Sweetbay Magnolia (Magnolia virginiana)
Domain | Eukarya |
Kingdom | Plantae |
Division | Magnoliophyta - common name: flowering plants |
Class | Magnoliopsida |
Order | Magnoliales |
Family | Magnoliaceae |
Genus | Magnolia |
Species | M. virginiana |
Note in this last example, that most of the taxa are named after the type genus, Magnolia. Sweetbay Magnolia is the first species of the genus named, and is the type species of the genus Magnolia, and thus also of all flowering plants.
Group suffixes
Taxa above the genus level are often given names derived from the type genus. The suffixes used to form these names depend on the kingdom, and sometimes the phylum and class, as follows:
Taxon | Plants | Algae | Fungi | Animals |
Division/Phylum | -phyta | -phyta | -mycota | |
Subdivision/Subphylum | -phytina | -phytina | -mycotina | |
Class | -opsida | -phyceae | -mycetes | |
Subclass | -idae | -phycidae | -mycetidae | |
Order | -ales | -ales | -ales | |
Suborder | -ineae | -ineae | -ineae | |
Superfamily | -acea | -acea | -acea | -oidea |
Family | -aceae | -aceae | -aceae | -idae |
Subfamily | -oideae | -oideae | -oideae | -inae |
Tribe | -eae | -eae | -eae | -ini |
Subtribe | -inae | -inae | -inae | -ina |

Mike Mitchell cuts choices down to three
BY Kevin Hageland, firstname.lastname@example.com
Prestonwood Christian Academy senior linebacker Mike Mitchell has seen his recruiting profile spike over the past year.
The 6-foot-4, 216-pound four-star linebacker is ranked as one of the top 50 recruits in the Class of 2013 by Rivals.com and for good reason as he was a first team all-district selection last season for Plano West after recording 151 tackles, 32 tackles for loss and 11 sacks for the Wolves.
After 3,000 letters and 51 scholarship offers, Mitchell has cut his list down to Florida State, Ohio State and Texas A&M.
"I know Mike is anxious to get the process over with and make a commitment because all he really wants to do is play football," said Ken Mitchell, Mike's father. "But he has been busy this summer with all the camps and hasn't had the chance to really visit anywhere, so he is going to make these visits in the fall and make a tough choice because these are some really good schools with really good coaching staffs."

My company has used Yokogawa ScopeCorder for about 15 years starting with the 708 model. My department has pretty much standardized on Yokogawa which allows multiple groups to use and borrow them as needed.
TT Engineered Solutions, Tim Taubert
The Yokogawa group have always taken good care of my equipment and instrumentation needs. I have been using the DL750 on some projects and all involved have asked how I am getting such amazing data and good measurements. I always use that opportunity to say it is not me, it is the equipment I use.
Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd.
We develop engines for racing motorcycles. Mainly, I'm in charge of developing measuring systems for engine performance evaluations and reliability tests.We do a variety of different evaluations on the engine test bench. We perform measurements on a regular basis of quite a number of items including the number of engine revolutions, torque, throttle opening, air-to-fuel ratio (A/F) which indicates the condition of the engine, concentrations of exhaust gases, pressure, and temperatures related to the exhaust and engine. We capture all of these signals and perform analysis using the DL750 ScopeCorder and the modular WE7000 PC-Based Measurement Instrument. Our job requires capturing suddenly-occurring abnormal phenomena as the engine turns and then observing the details while at the same time making long-duration observations of slow signals such as the air-to-fuel ratio (A/F). We use the DL750 ScopeCorder for such monitoring applications and measurement of valve behavior during unit testing.The DL750 has a color display which makes it easy to view 16 channels of data at once, and the long memory and zoom functions allow us to observe abnormal phenomena in detail.We also use the snapshot function frequently. It helps us tremendously by letting us freeze a waveform being displayed on screen and save it to MO disk or PC card. The DL750 also has an abundant array of interfaces so it's easy to use, and one reason we chose the DL750 is because of the Ethernet function that allows us to connect it to a network. We've been using DL series digital oscilloscopes for awhile, and we are very satisfied with them because they are easy to use and offer high cost-performance.

I work on development for hybrid vehicles. Especially in recent years, I've been involved with the Advanced Clean Energy Vehicle Project (ACE project) at NEDO (New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization).
The objective of the ACE (Advanced Clean Energy Vehicle) project for 2003 is to work in cooperation with all the automobile manufacturers in order to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by developing new vehicles that combine hybrid structure, greatly decreased fuel consumption, clean energy, and after treatment technology for exhaust gases.
At Hino Motors, our goal this year is to come out with a hybrid bus with two times the fuel efficiency compared with our previous heavy duty diesel busses. We brought in five of the DL750 ScopeCorders for development on this new hybrid bus.
The bus under development has a new hybrid system and electrical storage units, and we use the DL750s to capture various signals in that system. For the storage unit we capture cell voltage, module voltage, current, temperature and other signals. In the engine we look at RPM, torque, and controller output signals, and in the hybrid system we measure motor, controller, temperature and many other kinds of signals, all of which undergo subsequent analysis.
Before, when the project was focused on storage research, we used 10 of the DL716 ScopeCorders to measure voltage. The DL716 accepted 16 channels of isolated input, and the long memory of that oscilloscope gave us high resolution that was really convenient for us. We chose the DL750 this time because it carries over the features of the DL716, but has improved long memory, is smaller in size, and adds GP-IB and Ethernet support which we think will be useful in the future.
By hooking up the five DL750s to a notebook PC via GP-IB, we can gather all 80 channels worth of data together using our customized LabVIEW software. We can send measurement commands to the DL750 from the PC, and that really speeds up our work. By gathering various kinds of data measured from the actual vehicle, the DL750 helps us understand what's going on inside the hybrid systems as they operate. During development of the new hybrid bus we analyze everything from the measured RPMs at a given accelerator position to the voltage values in the storage unit to energy consumption, and this lets us determine the most fuel-efficient control conditions for the hybrid system.
Lyondell Chemical Co, Jim Poux
I love this DL-750 scopecorder. The technicians here call it "my mistress". This is the single most powerful general purpose piece of test equipment I have ever seen. It found in one day a problem we lived with for 13 years, and paid for itself in one day. This machine excells at finding glitch events involving mixed signal types, such as relay logic, high and low voiltage AC and DC signals, AC or DC current signals, and 4-20 ma process controls. With 16 channels you can see a lot of data in one test. We also used this to investigate an electrical fire incident and found a very obscure design flaw, again in one day. We used the VGA output and a projector unit for a wall size view in a conf room and could step thru the circuit events a millisecond at a time, with 100% understanding of what was happening during a complex Y/Delta motor start sequence. This also found boiler trip problems where the event was so fast the flame safeguard computer was giving the wrong first out indication. The DL750 nailed the problem first time. I think this tool has gotten me two promotions in pay grade. It takes some time to learn, so don't expect to rent one and fix the world in two days. Buy it and learn it. Our DL750 was so useful and employed so much that the boss suggested I buy a second one. How often does that happen? Our second one, a DL750P named "The Terminator" is even better than the DL750. Jim Poux Lyondell Chemical Co.

The DL750 is fabulous. We have been using the unit to monitor AC line, investigate Instantaneous Stop conditions and to test live boards. It is safe and easy to operate (if you read the manual or receive technical service assistance). I truly recommend the unit to anyone that is involved in some kind of signal monitoring activity...it is great! I have only used 40% of its capacity more or less, but I am looking forward to squeeze every dollar we invested on it. I rate the unit at # 4 level because I am not familiar with other oscilloscopes similar to the DL750. Thanks.
Ford Motor Company, Essex, UK - Alasdair Gillespie
In the development of new engine control strategies we often have the need to capture and analyse many complex signals. To this end we have several Yokogawa Oscilloscopes including the DL750. The DL750 is an essential tool in our work, being used by engineers for a multitude of tasks: Software design and validation as well as Control system design and calibration.
In a recent case, we had a development issue with the control system for an engine actuator. On analysis of the signals within the software calibration tool we were unable to diagnose the issue. It wasn't until we used the DL750 with its high speed signal acquisition and multiple channel capability that we could fully understand what was going on.
In engineering, it is the understanding of a system's behavior that is the key to developing solutions. The DL750 gives us a window into the complexity of the signals in our systems. From there we have the means to develop highly refined control systems for our range of class leading diesel engines.

This is a powerful troubleshooting tool. It took me a couple of days to figure it out, but it really is versatile and capable of monitoring signals from instrument level all the way up to 480VAC. We have already used it to monitor & trend motor currents & frequency on our new production line. We were having troubles with the motor drive tripping, and we found out that the design speed/frequency for the application was estimated wrong from the beginning. We adjusted base frequencies for the product and it is running good now.
American Electric Power, John Mandeville
We have 2 DL750s. They are easy to setup and use. The channel to channel isolation / cross is one the best unit I have found. There are 2 things that could have been done better. First there is no tilt stand on the bottom. Also, the developers view this as an enhanced scope. So the vertical and horizotal units are always in per division. This is a little bit confusing since I really would like to set the range and not the volt/div * 8 div. Otherwise this is a very nice instrument.

Hazelwood Editor Survives Tornado: 'I Never Got a Chance to Pray'
Hazelwood Patch Editor Candace Jarrett reflects on experiencing the EF2 tornado that ripped through Hazelwood Wednesday. Where were you when the sudden storm hit?
As I wrap up my almost 24-hour work day, I'm finally able to sit back and think about the fact I survived a tornado on Wednesday. You always look at media coverage and movies where natural disasters happen, and I don't know about you, but I've asked myself time after time: "What would I do if I were in that situation?" First, I would pray to the good Lord above. Second, I would whip out my camera and go into journalist mode. Third, when all the chaos was over, I would ensure my family was OK. When it happens, plans go out the window, kind of like when you deliver a baby. As I drove down Howdershell Road Wednesday night, slowing to a halt near Lynn Haven Lane because of heavy rains, I can't tell you much about what happened because I was in…

The Outdoor Warning Siren System consists of 21 warning sirens within the Richardson city limits. The system is tested silently each day. However, in order to ensure proper operation of the entire system, audible testing is necessary. Therefore, the Outdoor Warning Siren System will be tested the first Wednesday of every month at noon. Each audible test will include approximately 30 seconds of audible siren sound. NOTE: In case of inclement weather, the siren test will be canceled in an effort to avoid confusion between the test and an actual event. Notification of this cancellation will be posted on this page as soon as possible once the determination is made to cancel the test. The Warning System will be activated when:

Keenly aware of Lancaster's need for a space celebrating the city's vibrant art community, a group of determined artists and citizens banded together in 1965 to found the Goethean Hall Gallery of Art, nestled amid Franklin and Marshall College. Though the art gallery has changed venues and names, the original vision of its founders—to provide visitors with the "best available art"—remains unchanged. Rechristened as the Lancaster Museum of Art (LMA), the museum now resides in the historic Grubb mansion, and boasts diverse exhibits and events for the public. The mansion's 4,000 square feet of galleries and porticos plays host to an ever-changing lineup of awe-inspiring art, as well as a permanent collection composed of paintings from a roster of Lancaster's homegrown artists, including Hugh Fitzgerald, Abby Rudisill, and Ellen Slupe. LMA also fosters an artistic dialogue with the community through numerous education programs that introduce the next generation to the ins and outs of the creative process.
The 43,000 square-foot facility of America On Wheels is dedicated to preserving and showcasing the expansive history of American transportation. Within that, 23,000 square feet are devoted entirely to exhibit space, where guests will find a variety of classic cars, racing vehicles, trucks, and motorcycles. Rotating exhibits have included topics such as classic cars of the 1930's–including a 1933 Buick–, muscle cars, and trains. In addition to offering family memberships and group tours, the facility hosts rentals of its space and a museum store, as well as a classic café complete with ice cream, shakes, floats, and hot dogs.
American Civil War Wax Museum, tucked in the historical and geographical shadow of the Battle of Gettysburg and Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, immerses visitors in the history of the fledgling Union's internal war with realistic scenes and life-size wax figures dressed in historically accurate attire and equipment. Patrons embark on a self-guided journey through a number of detailed exhibits, such as the Battle Room, which simulates the battlefield experience with a digital audiovisual presentation, or the animatronic Lincoln delivering the Gettysburg Address, just as the first robot Lincoln did nearly 160 years ago. Across the way, Veteran's Park coaxes erstwhile museum-striders to soak in the historic surroundings on a bench or beneath a shade tree while relaxing among chirping birds. Since opening in 1962, the museum has broadened the historical knowledge of more than 8 million visitors and has hosted such notable orators as former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Notre Dame is posting some impressive numbers besides the zero at the end of its record and its No. 9 ranking.
The Fighting Irish defense has not yet allowed a rushing touchdown, their 36 points allowed are the fewest in the opening four games for the school since 1975 and Notre Dame (4-0) is the only FBS team that has yet to trail in a game this season. Players say there is a sense of anticipation around campus.
"You can feel the energy," defensive end Stephon Tuitt said. "I talked to my mom about it, I talked to some of the team about it, it's a different energy around here. I haven't really felt that energy before. It's an exciting feeling. It's an exciting, about-time feeling."
Coach Brian Kelly wants the Irish to enjoy their best start in a decade, so long as they stay focused on what it's taken to get them there.
"You don't just put blinders on. But what you ask them to do is focus on the task at hand, so there is a balance there as well," he said Tuesday.
The Irish haven't been balanced so far, depending heavily on their defense for their strong start. The offense needs to start contributing more, especially as Notre Dame prepares to play Miami (4-1), which is averaging 473 yards and 35.6 points a game. Notre Dame is averaging 351 yards and 25.7 points a game, but hasn't scored more than 20 points in its past three games.
"We need to score more points, no question about that," Kelly said.
Still, a win over the Hurricanes would be the fifth straight for the Irish, their longest streak since 2006 and could move the Irish higher in the poll.
Kelly called it "white noise" when Notre Dame jumped into the rankings after its season-opening victory over Navy. Back then, the Irish had three top 11 teams on its schedule, as well as two other ranked opponents to play. That noise is getting harder to ignore now that the Irish are ranked No. 9 and every team on their schedule has at least one loss, with none ranked higher than No. 13.
Kelly said he doesn't want the Irish ignoring the attention, just keeping it in perspective. He began talking about it with the players on Monday and before he could finish the first sentence he could see the seniors knew what he was talking about. Continued...
"The response that I got catching their eye was, 'Coach, we tune that out,'" Kelly said. "I'm pretty confident that our veteran players, in particular, they have been through this enough to know that the focus needs to be on the next practice."
To reinforce that message, Kelly said the Irish had a two-hour practice in full gear Monday with the first-string offense going against the first-string defense to get the Irish accustomed to the speed they'll be facing against Miami on Saturday night at Soldier Field in Chicago, reviving a game that was a big rivalry in the 1980s.
Kelly said the excitement during the bye week over the strong start is a much better feeling for a bye week than two years ago, when the Irish lost back to back games to Navy and Tulsa. In between those two games, a 20-year-old student videographer was killed while filming the team's practice when the lift he was on was blown over. That stretch was a low point in Kelly's three years as coach at Notre Dame.
"They remember that, and I remember that," he said.
Kelly said the Irish emerge from the bye week healthier, saying that a "clicking" quarterback Everett Golson was feeling in his right shoulder had had "cleared up nicely."

Google Searches for a Mobile Answer (Update 1)
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Google(GOOG) has vastly underperformed since the start of 2012. Shareholders hope the company's first-quarter results on Thursday can be a catalyst for the stock to move higher.
Since the start of the year, Google shares have lost 1.99%, compared to a 15.79% gain in the Nasdaq. Weakness in Europe, concerns over its relationship with Apple(AAPL) in mobile search and potential issues with Google's pending Motorola Mobility(MMI) acquisition have weighed on the stock.
Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster believes that investors will want to focus on the Motorola acquisition, despite Google's penchant for not mentioning it. He believes the best option for Google is to ultimately sell the hardware business, in order not to upset Android partners. Munster rates Google shares "overweight" with a $675 price target.
The Internet search giant has struggled to drive revenue from its mobile initiatives, despite having over 50% market share in smartphones, according to Comscore. Apple's(AAPL) iOS is second in the U.S., with 30.2% market share, and Research In Motion(RIMM) is in third place at 13.4%.
When Google reported weaker-than-expected fourth-quarter earnings, there were concerns that perhaps the company is expanding into too many ventures, many of which are not driving meaningful revenue, such as the much-maligned social network, Google+. Google CEO Larry Page recently said the social network has over 100 million users (though there has been discussion about how many of these are active users).
