The Oregon Ducks' offense was supposed to stampede all over the UCLA Bruins' defense on Saturday, but the Bruins' defensive leaders had different ideas.
Eric Kendricks has been a top performer on the UCLA defense all season and he made his presence felt in this contest. Oddly enough, Kendricks was in the hospital earlier in the week with a liver injury that nearly kept him out of Saturday's Pac-12 battle. Thankfully, Kendricks was on the field for Week 9 and made sure that everyone watching at home knew about No. 6. Whenever Heisman Trophy-hopeful Marcus Mariota would get out of the pocket, Kendricks was right there to stop a big play from happening.
With that being said, each one of the Bruins' linebackers came to play against the Ducks. Anthony Barr, Myles Jack, Jordan Zumwalt and Kendricks combined for 18 tackles, five tackles-for-loss, two forced fumbles, and one blocked punt. This group hasn't earned the type of credit it has deserved throughout the Bruins' undefeated season, so it's actually quite nice to see Kendricks and company being referred to as some of the top linebackers in the nation.
One thing is for certain; the Bruins are going to rely heavily on their linebacker group as UCLA makes a push toward its first Pac-12 title after being the runner-up for two-straight seasons.

On Tuesday, March 29th at approximately 1:30 pm central time, a major fiber cable bundle providing connectivity to the University of Kansas was cut and severely damaged. EED, in consultation with AAI, is recommending that districts delay testing until Thursday, 3/31/16. This will allow adequate time for full repairs to take place and the system to be completely restored.
AAI will program the system to allow for students to restart in the stage in which they were testing when the testing was interrupted. Reactivations will not be necessary. EED will be sending regular updates via email to all District Test Coordinators.

Yea no need for the blockoff plate, if it gives you some kinda trouble then go for it. But if you are using a 2002 truck the 97 or 97 engine works very well. If you are lucky enough to find a 2002 5.7 then go for that. Anyhow, you will use your 2002 computer so no need for the older emissions stuff to be attached. THere was nothing to delete in my computer because a 2002 truck never had it on v6 or v8. Any other questions just ask.
To add to the nonsense, make sure you get AC Delco GM Factory 2.8 motor mounts. My whatever they were ones are totally destroyed after 2+ years of driving on them.

Active Duty - Blake, Nick Gunner & Rusty
Active Duty - Blake, Nick Gunner & Rusty - Free Gay Porn
Download Blake, Nick Gunner & Rusty video from Active Duty
Dink Flamingo couldn't wait to get their new find, Rusty, into some hot action so he quickly called in the reinforcements and got a hot three way set up. This scorching trio brings back two Active Duty favorites that we haven't seen in a little while now. Everybody loves little Nick Gunner and it's no wonder. He's such a cute little devil and today he proves just how horny he can be when you put him in the right situation. He comes through in this scene and not only does a damn good job as a top, but also bottoms for the other returning favorite, Blake. Yes, big, huge-dicked Blake. Blake is back and he's brought that big meat along with him to give to Rusty as a welcoming gift. Rusty doesn't quite know what he's in for, but he's a real trooper and by the time it's all said and done he proves just how damn eager he is to please. Things kick off with them joking about Nick Gunner watching the Food Network and how it's making him hungry. What he's really watching is some good porn and it's making him horny. Blake is already licking his lips as he sits between these two studs and anticipates what's about to go down. As soon as they finish the chitchat, Blake is all over Nick Gunner, Rusty is all over Blake and you can tell right away that these three are about to show us some real fun. Rusty is all smiles as he rubs on Blake's stomach and lifts his shirt. He and Nick help Blake out of his shirt and they lose theirs, too. The shorts quickly follow and the boys enjoy a little foreplay as they explore each other's bodies. Rusty and Blake embrace for the first kiss and Rusty reaches down to discover the monster in Blake's boxers. Nick Gunner is fascinated by Blake's nipples and spends some time playing with them as he plays with his own hard cock. A kiss between him and Blake follow as Rusty gets Blake out of his shorts and starts sucking his big dick. Nick keeps on sucking and licking Blake's nipples as Rusty handles that big cock, taking it down his throat and working it good.

Have Yourself a Merry Little…
As many of you know, I used to own a bookstore. And while Christmas and Chanukah were, no question, big events for us, they didn't hold a candle (hee! Candle! Chanuk….oh, never mind) to Rosh Hashanah, Easter, and Thanksgiving. Why? My partners and I had two theories about this. One was that on these traditionally family-heavy holidays, people without families wanted to escape their loneliness with a good book. The other theory—and we leaned in this direction—was that after a day or two of enforced togetherness, our customers knew they would be desperate for a little mental refuge. Actually, we used to do land-office business right after the holidays in question: People, we reasoned, felt they deserved some serious rewards after three days of being nice to crazy Aunt Selma.
Actually, it's a truism widely known in bookstores (and probably throughout retail in general) that January is one of the better months for business. January? With all the sleet and dieting and general yuckiness that winter can provide? Yup. The holiday credit-card bills don't hit till the tail-end, so you've got a good three weeks to pretend you're in the chips. And just as important – and here's Aunt Selma again – you spent an awful lot of time recently buying and baking and wrapping and smiling for other people's benefit: Here at last is the point at which you can stop holding your stomach in, revert to your happily grouchy self, and read all damn afternoon, if that's what appeals. And for our customers, that's exactly what appeals, so they would come in and pick up an armload of their favorite thrillers or puzzlers or WittyBrits, secure in the knowledge that they were, at last, buying a lovely stack of books for someone absolutely sure to appreciate them.
May you do the same.
Ho ho ho, and see you in the stacks

Today's beer comes from Brewery Ommegang of Cooperstown, New York. It is a traditional Farmhouse Saison ale that comes in at 7.7% ABV. I was a bit confused when I looked at this bottle as it has all of the Ommegang markings, but the label says that this beer was brewed in Belgium by Duvel Moortgat, NV. According to some info that I was able to find on the net, Ommegang will outsource some of their beer to the Duvel Brewery whenever they have to do changes and/or construction on their brewery in Cooperstown. The last time that I was able to find this happening was in 2011, so I don't know if I got an old bottle or if they are doing additional changes at the brewery.
Hennepin pours a beautiful blond color with a creamy white head. The beer pours clear out of the bottle with some sediment at the bottom. Against the instructions on the bottle, I swirled my second glass of this to see what the yeast tasted like with the beer. The nose first hits with a nice malty sweetness and then flows into a wonderful light Belgian spice. Nothing on the nose was overly aggressive and seemed to be in balance nicely.
On my first taste I was ecstatic to taste how creamy and flavorful the malt was. Sometimes Belgian beers become too much about the spices and not enough about the malt (particularly US versions). This beer had a wonderful, semi-sweet, grainy body that flowed nicely with each sip. The Belgian spices are solidly there, but well balanced with the hops. I recently reviewed another Saison that I considered to be the "poster child of what a Sasion should be" and I think this beer could fall into that realm as well.
This beer is really outstanding. Everything is in perfect balance and it is packed with flavor. I'm going to be buying another one of these beers shortly and maybe even attempting be make my own Saison. I really can't say enough kind words about this beer. Brewery Ommegang puts out some great beers, but this might be on of their best achievements. (more…)

Warwick Public Lectures in Mathematics and Statistics
Hosted by the Mathematics Institute
Chris Budd, University of Bath
Maths goes to the Movies (poster )
Date and time: Monday 4th December 2017, 6.15pm
Venue: MS.02 Zeeman Building (Maths and Statistics), University of Warwick
An enormous amount of our leisure time is spent interacting with the media, watching television and movies. Much of the space on our computers (and on the Internet) is taken up with static and moving images, and images are also extremely important in fields varying from medicine to crime protection. These images are stored as numbers, and mathematics can be used to create, manipulate and change them. Characters such as Shrek are actually a collection of triangles and other mathematical objects, demonstrating the role of mathematics in the creation of movies. This talk will provide insight into the world of movie making from a mathematician's perspective.
Attendance is FREE! Please register interest here.
Refreshments will be served in the Main Atrium, Zeeman Building after the lecture.

Jeff Rosenthal, University of Toronto
From Lotteries to Polls to Monte Carlo (poster)
Date and time: Wednesday 3rd May 2017, 6.15pm
Venue: MS.02 Zeeman Building (Maths and Statistics), University of Warwick
This talk will discuss randomness and probability, to answer such questions as: Just how unlikely is it to win a lottery jackpot? If you flip 100 coins, how close will the number of heads be to 50? How many dying patients must be saved to demonstrate that a new medical drug is effective? Why do strange coincidences occur so often? If a poll samples 1,000 people, how accurate are the results? How did statistics help to expose the Ontario Lottery Retailer Scandal? If two babies die in the same family without apparent cause, should the parents be convicted of murder? Why do casinos always make money, even though gamblers sometimes win and sometimes lose? And how is all of this related to Monte Carlo Algorithms, an extremely popular and effective method of scientific computing? No mathematical background is required to attend.
Attendance is FREE! Please register interest here.
Refreshments will be served in the Main Atrium, Zeeman Building after the lecture.
Hosted by the Department of Statistics
Professor Bernard Silverman FRS (Chief Scientific Adviser to the Home Office)
Mathematics and Science in the Home Office (poster)
Venue: MS.02, Zeeman Building (Maths and Statistics), University of Warwick.
How many victims of Modern Slavery are there? How long should it be legal to retain a DNA profile on someone who is arrested but not charged? How can we ensure you don't wait too long to be checked when you enter the country? These and many other questions are the sort of thing where mathematics and statistics play a key role in Home Office policy and operations. I will explain both the role of a departmental Chief Scientific Adviser and also the wider work carried out by the Home Office Science organisation under my leadership. As well as describing some particular problems, such as those set out above, I will also reflect more widely on the way that science and evidence contribute to Government.
Attendance is FREE!
Refreshments will be served in the Main Atrium, Zeeman Building after the lecture.

Professor Sheila Bird OBE FRSE (MRC Biostatistics Unit)
Biostatistician behind bars (poster)
By design and on trial
Venue: MS.02, Zeeman Building (Maths and Statistics), University of Warwick.
For over 100 years, the MRC Biostatistics Unit has used statistics to investigate epidemics such as tuberculosis, cigarette smoking, HIV, heroin addiction and hepatitis C. Our findings are not always popular. I will describe how research into HIV, hepatitis B and heroin injection got us barred from Scottish prisons.
Naloxone is the heroin antidote that can save lives in the event of an overdose. Record-linkage studies led us to quantify a 7 times higher risk of overdose death amongst ex-prisoners shortly after release from prison. This enabled us to mount the pilot N-ALIVE trial in England, which measures the effectiveness of naloxone take-home kits at reducing drug related deaths.
Even before the N-ALIVE randomized controlled trial started in England, Scotland introduced take-home-naloxone as a funded public health policy. The 3-year results of Scotland's closely-monitored naloxone policy led us to stop the N-ALIVE trial. I will explain why.
Attendance is FREE!
Refreshments will be served in the Main Atrium, Zeeman Building after the lecture.
Hosted by the Mathematics Institute
Professor Cédric Villani (University of Lyon)
The Amazing Theorems of Mr Nash (poster)
Venue: MS.02, Zeeman Building (Maths and Statistics), University of Warwick.
The scientific career of John Nash started with his celebrated contributions to "game theory", the subject of his doctoral thesis which he defended in 1950 at the age of 22. It is for this first contribution that he was awarded the economics Nobel prize in 1994!
After his PhD, John Nash turned to a very different area of mathematics. Between 1954 and 1958 he published three articles in which he proved three theorems that revolutionised mathematical analysis. For mathematicians, it is really for these three articles, more than for his work on game theory, that Nash deserves his place in the pantheon of mathematics. This talk will focus on one of these theorems by explaining its scope in simple terms and by insisting on the notion of regularity, central in Nash's work and in modern analysis in general.
Attendance is FREE!
Refreshments will be served in the Main Atrium, Zeeman Building after the lecture.

Data and the Brain (poster)
The impact of big data on learning deep neural models for speech, image and language understanding
In our quest to build deep neural models to reproduce different brain functions, we have discovered that it is of paramount importance to understand how data shapes the brain. Models that are learned from data are the best at many tasks such as speech recognition, language modelling and image understanding --- e.g., detecting where faces occur in photos and recognizing road features for self-driving cars. In this talk, I will describe how neuroscience, statistics and computer science have influenced the design of deep neural models, which have won many recent prediction competitions and have become state-of-the-art in image recognition tasks and speech recognition. I will argue that at present the complexity of our models is so large that big data is essential to learn these models appropriately.

Professor Sir Roy Anderson (Imperial)
Plagues and People in the Modern World (poster )
The historical and epidemiological literature abound with accounts of infectious disease epidemics and of the concomitant effects on population abundance, social organisation and the unfolding pattern of historical events. Epidemics have long been a source of fear and fascination in human societies, but it is only in comparatively recent times that their origins and patterns have begun to yield their secrets through mathematical and scientific study.
The talk will examine the role played by predictive modelling in modern infectious disease epidemiology and will illustrate this by reference to past epidemics including the very recent H1N1 influenza pandemic (Did we overreact ? How can we better measure and predict pathogenicity? Will the H1N1 experience have a detrimental impact on how we respond to future epidemics?). The talk will also examine some of the neglected tropical diseases to address how can epidemiological modelling help the poorest societies in the world control infection and disease, and also help international agencies develop cost effective policies?
Date: Wednesday 12 February, 2014
Sir Roy Anderson
Hosted by the Department of Statistics
Professor Valerie Isham (University College London; Past President of the Royal Statistical Society)
Rainfall, Hydrology and Climate (poster)
Rainfall is the driving force for many hydrological processes. As has been all too apparent in recent months, rainfall that cannot be absorbed or drained away causes major flooding disasters worldwide and flood defences must be designed to cope with extreme events. Soil moisture provides the dynamic link between climate, soil and vegetation, and impacts plant dynamics as well as other processes at a range of spatial scales. Historical rainfall data are, perhaps surprisingly, often not available at the temporal and spatial resolution needed for hydrological design. Climate change poses an additional challenge, as rainfall data under future climate scenarios are needed for design purposes. The talk, aimed at a general audience, will illustrate some of the approaches taken by statistical modellers to provide and use artificial rainfall data to address these issues.
Date: Wednesday 8 May, 2013

Hosted by the Mathematics Institute
Professor Ian Stewart FRS (Dept of Mathematics, University of Warwick)
Turing's Tiger (poster)
2012 is the centenary of the birth of Alan Turing. Turing is best known for his wartime code-breaking work at Bletchley Park and his fundamental contributions to computer science and artificial intelligence, but he was also a pioneer of mathematical biology.
Many animals have striking markings: spots on a leopard, stripes on a tiger. How do they arise? In the early 1950s, Turing showed his colleagues a drawing with irregular black-and-white patches, asking them whether they agreed that it looked like a cow. In 1952 he published 'the chemical basis of morphogenesis', in which he proposed a mechanism for the creation of animal markings.
The resulting patterns are remarkably similar to those found on many animals, including convoluted stripes on fish and intricate patterns on seashells. The talk will be an informal, highly illustrated discussion of these Turing patterns in both mathematics and biology, with no technicalities.

The Genetic Revolution (poster)
Genetic factors are responsible for a substantial part of the susceptibility to all of the common diseases afflicting humans, including heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, depression, and many cancers and infectious diseases. Recent advances in genomic science have dramatically altered our ability to "read" genetic differences between people, leading to an explosion in our understanding of the genetic basis of most common human diseases. These new tools have led to an explosion in the amount and nature of genetic data available, with statistical analysis methods critical to the scientific progress. It won't be long before these changes have an impact on the practice of clinical medicine. Over a longer timeframe, they offer hope for new treatments for disease, and genetics is likely to become routine in some parts of medicine. The talk, aimed at a general audience, will give a sense of the excitement of the science and some of the statistical challenges, as well as the opportunities and challenges for our health and society.

Hendrik Lenstra (University of California at Berkeley and University of Leiden)
Escher and the Droste Effect (poster)
This lecture is to shed light on the mind-bending art of Dutch artist Escher by taking a closer look at the mathematics behind his images. Professor Lenstra will look at Escher's 1956 work The Print Gallery, which depicts a swirling impossible world centred around a mysterious hole in the middle of the image.
The lecture will offer a fascinating insight into how art and maths work together. People often think of mathematics as something extremely specialised and abstract which is just not relevant to their daily lives. But the opposite is in fact true - mathematics runs through so much, whether it's the banking system or the music we listen to. It's not often you see mathematics and art together on the same bill but Escher's works are a great illustration of how the two are interlinked.

David J Spiegelhalter OBE, FRS (Winton Professor of the Public Understanding of Risk, University of Cambridge)
Living with risk and uncertainty — we're all going to die (sometime)
Past experience and probability theory can be used to check the odds of your football team winning or judge the risks of activities such as riding motorcycles, taking illegal drugs, going into hospital or just living. Things get more difficult when we don't fully understand what is going on, like early on in the swine-flu epidemic, or when we are dealing with huge complexity, as in climate change. Then it can be helpful to admit what we don't know, and I shall show how we can use probability and statistics to measure how ignorant you are.

by Lemony Snicket, illustrated by Lisa Brown
published 2014 by McSweeney's/McMullens
Do you know Because of Winn-Dixie? (Have I told you about the time I told Kate DiCamillo I wrote because of Winn-Dixie and obviously meant because of Because of Winn-Dixie but she cackled and my heart soared?)
Anyway. There's a thing called a Littmus Lozenge. It's a candy that makes you taste your sorrow and your sad and your sweet, all at once. Maybe it's the thought of a lozenge sounding like something medicinal, or maybe it's cause this pharmacy gave me both comfort and the heebie-jeebies, but reading this book felt a little like tasting a Littmus Lozenge. Something unsettling hovers around this place, but it beckons me, too. And I'm not alone in that: those two myth-collectors/busters are at once intrigued and terrified.
It's weird and charming and confusing and a head-scratcher all at once.
I think that's exactly what makes it a successful story for kids. Everything doesn't have to make sense. Offbeat is okay.
Because let's face it: kid are weird and charming and confusing. They teeter in that fuzzy place between wonder and reality. This is a book that honors this and celebrates that. Is it suspicious, a lady going in and coming out in the same outfit? No. Not necessarily. But see: you are an adult. You are past your prime of delighting in the bizarre and making sense or screwballs out of it. When you read this, rest in it. Let it catapult you from being a grownup. It's good for you. And then share it with a kid. They'll get it. Physically, I love the compact trim size because it feels like a manual, like a notebook, like some peculiar pamphlet to some oddball prescription in the pharmacy. It's like a secret. A hush. Then! The cover unfolds to show the depths of the Swinster Pharmacy. When you flip it over, there's a map of the town. Don't ask me why I didn't show you that. Just trust me. (If you dare.)
P.S. – Another numbered book I loved recently is How to Bicycle to the Moon to Plant Sunflowers, by Mordecai Gerstein. A total must read if you love quirk and lists like me.
The publisher provided a review copy of 29 Myths on the Swinster Pharmacy, but thoughts and love are my own.

Not All, Just The Bastard Next Door...I get along with all of my neighbors really well. All of them except the short little rotund bastard next door to us. He's been squatting (maybe it was standing-can't tell) on our property since I moved there. I alerted him to the property despute several years ago and told him he would need to move his fence back 7+ feet to the property line. Yes, I said seven feet... for 100 feet of the property line. He had erected a tree fort in two of the trees that straddled the property line. The town advised him to relocate the tree fort and move the fence back. I wanted the trees removed completely as he had damaged them by driving lag bolts through the trunks to secure the fort. He refused to remove the trees, and threatened to file charges against me if I removed them. He did move the fort to his side of the trees. Their kids constantly hit their balls and throw their toys over the fence. I've been nice to throw them back over. We have since put in our new fence and have a lock on the access point to keep the neighbors out. We've had to ask them to not jump the fence, or squeeze through, as we would open it for them so they could retrieve their toys.
We have suspected that the kids continue to squeeze through because the fence gate is getting damaged on the bottom from excessive force. Today, the same neighbor had some tree work. The tree company asked us if they could part the crane in our new driveway to do the work. We told them know as the asphault is still too new and will get dents/impressions in it from the outriggers. So instead, the workers, instead of knocking on the door and asking for access to our back yard, squeezed through the fence and did additional stress damage.
My wife alerted the tree co workers that they had damaged the fence and that I would be speaking with the neighbor when I get home. The f-in guy is on the Board of Ed, but you would think he is the US President with the way he walks around. I believe he is suffering from the Napolean Complex.
I know your pain. I own a small summer home in Arizona, on Biltmore Dr. There is a creepy guy who is always coming onto my property. He finally outdid himself just last week. He decided to do a little remodelling while I was home in Toronto. so, he cuts our hedges and paves himself a superlong crescent shaped drive way. I must say, I snapped and decided to take matters into my own hands, as my lawyer wasn't getting anywhwere. I grabbed my old rifle, headed outside, and calmly told him that he had gone too far and that he better get the **** off my land before I filled him full of lead. He scrambled out so fast, he tripped on his own feet and fell headfirst into the wet cement. I haven't seen him since. Anyway, wanted to share this, and here's today's lesson: When people tell you to keep off their property, you better do it before they snap. Good luck with the dispute. ;-)
I really don't understand WHY, when 2 people share a property line, one of them feels the need to tempt fate by putting something too close to the property line. My overbearing neighbor had the gaul to pave his new driveway over the property line and onto my property. I'm not saying an accidental foot or so, try a good 8ft. These yards are small to begin with, so that really pissed me off. Some people are simply unbelievable! It sounds like you're neighbor is rather clueless and it sounds like you are handling yourself quite well. It don't think you're being unreasonable, so continue to stand tall and be firm. Not ugly, just firm.

The Tampa Bay Rays flew under the radar last season after losing their general manager and manager to other teams before last season.
The Rays made some small moves this offseason to shore up some areas in which they lost players due to free agency. They acquired Logan Morrison, infielder Brad Miller and reliever Danny Farquhar in a deal with Seattle. All three will play vital roles for the team this season.
The AL East is full of teams with a lot of offense. Can the Rays hang with only average offense, but really good defense?
Here is the 2016 MLB season preview for the Tampa Bay Rays.

Darren Criss Wears Sexy Santa Costume, Goes Shirtless in Glee Calendar
Looks like Darren Criss is on the naughty list this year!
On Sunday, Dec. 14, Glee co-creator Ryan Murphy tweeted a picture of the shirtless TV star wearing a Santa Claus hat, pants and boots while standing on top of a wrapped present. "Merry Christmas," Murphy, 47, wrote in the caption. "Men of McKinley calendar coming soon."
VIDEO: Darren Criss covers "Teenage Dream" for Us Weekly
It's not the first time Criss, 25, has been shirtless on the show -- and it likely won't be the last. The actor is currently shooting the fourth season of the FOX hit, which returns with new episodes Jan. 24, 2013.
PHOTOS: Glee stars' real-life yearbook pics
"Every day is really special because we spend it doing what we love," Criss told OUT earlier this year. "The cast, the crew, everyone that works to make the show a success, is truly amazing. I am just really blessed."
PHOTOS: Behind the scenes of Glee
Criss added that his favorite part of being on Glee is "having a job, singing and dancing, and being around amazing people that love to come to work."

Does Anyone Miss The E3 Booth Babes?
The post-E3 headlines are all over the place, which is perfectly normal. But after reading such headlines for quite a few years, I've noticed a distinct lacking...
Where the hell are the E3 booth babes?! Damnit all.
They're there. They exist. You can go find them right now if you want. But boy, in comparison to recent years...?
Oh, right, I forgot. The industry is all grown up now - 'cuz you're growns up and you're growns up and you're growns up! -- Which movie? - and of course, we never really needed hot girls to show off these products in the first place. The implication was always that the average age of a gamer was about 17, and he had never had a girlfriend...which, let's face the gloomy truth, was probably true at one point in the history of gaming.
And yeah, the average age is over 30 now and just about everyone and everyone's grandmother has played a video game at some point, so the titillation really isn't necessary and it would probably only be counterproductive, at least from a progression and maturity standpoint. But in a lot of ways, the booth babes were a tradition and I'm just not the biggest fan of ditching traditions. I mean, come on...the booth babe coverage added a little levity to the post-E3 arguments and discussions; the pics put smiles on our faces and made us kinda remember that in fact, this is all just for fun. Not stern, grave debate. Fun.
I should also add that maybe booth babes were significant because in truth, hot girls and gaming never really went together. I suppose they do now, as per recent evidence, but back then, chicks like those weren't often seen in arcades. So the contrast is another reason it was so big. All in all, I get it. I really do. But at the same time, I have to say- I miss 'em.

I heard that Gamescom has forbidden booth babes altogether, stating the focus should be on the games, not the babes :-(
Anyway, stay away from that redhead all the way on the right, she doesn't know it yet, but she's going to become the next ex-Mrs Saint!!!!

It was also pretty cool when I was playing this new game (looked like a Korean version of Gears of War called 'Dizzel') and this scantily clad army girl came up to me and was teaching me how to play. "Yes, mistress, I shall do what you say!"
Booth babes make it more exciting that's for sure.
Saturday, June 09, 2012 @ 2:58:16 AM
So yeah, bring on the babes. Either that or a new generation consoles, so we can better watch'em babes on there (Lara Croft reboot + every RPG with a decent character creation system For Teh Win!). :)

I feel exactly the same about booth babes. While I admit that I've never been to E3, I've been to other cons that have had them, and they just don't add anything of significance. Not to me anyway. If I want something like that (and I occasionally do), I have other avenues for it that are much more convenient than some vapid eye candy who does little else than perpetually be in my way.

Look! I made you dinner!
You could have it as a snack if you wanted to, but the best summer days are the ones where ice cream, popsicles, and other cold treats are perfectly acceptable as meals. You know the days I mean, right? It's like the summer version of having breakfast for dinner.
These are ridiculously easy to make, and you know that if I'm saying that, kindergarten classes everywhere could handle it.
The strawberry lemonade popsicles have two ingredients. Two! There are more letters in that word than there are ingredients! Simply cut the stems off of a few strawberries, throw them in your blender or food processor with a few squirts of lemon juice, and you're almost done!
I chopped up a few extra pieces to throw in and make my popsicles chunky, but you're free to skip this step if that weirds you out a little. You could also add a little bit of honey or sugar if you wanted to, but these are most likely sweet enough on their own depending on the taste of your strawberries.
For a really sweet snack, I suggest the fudgesicles.
I poured a cup of milk (I used coconut) into a mason jar, added a packet of hot chocolate, a scoop of PB2, some chia seeds, and a reasonable (to no one) amount of chocolate chips. Shake it all up and pour it into your popsicle mold.
Don't be alarmed if you see some chunks – the chia seeds will swell a little and help make these more of a fudgesicle consistency instead of just some frozen milk.
Stick them in your freezer for a few hours and then stick them in your mouth!
You can make just one, or you can make them both! And if you don't approve of popsicle dinners, try one for dessert. Totally laid back. Just like summer. 🙂

Finding the Coordinates of a Triangle Vertex
Date: 10/26/1999 at 12:49:37 From: madhusudhan Subject: Analytical geometry problem Respected sir, I am unable to solve this problem. Please help me out. The problem is: The points B and C of triangle ABC lie on the line 3y = 4x and y = 0 respectively. The line BC passes through (2/3,2/3). If O is the origin and AOBC forms a rhombus, find the co-ordinates of A. I tried to solve this problem by drawing a diagram, but I could not get any ideas. Please help me out.
Date: 10/26/1999 at 14:36:03 From: Doctor Rob Subject: Re: Analytical geometry problem Thanks for writing to Ask Dr. Math, Madhusudhan. The coordinates of B must be (3*a,4*a) for some a, because B lies on 3*y = 4*x. The coordinates of C must be (b,0) for some b, because C lies on y = 0. The line BC has equation (y-0)*(3*a-b) = (x-b)*(4*a-0) (3*a-b)*y = 4*a*(x-b) Since the point (2/3,2/3) lies on it, we get an equation relating a and b: (3*a-b)*(2/3) = 4*a*(2/3-b) Next, since AOBC is a rhombus, the lengths of its sides must be equal. You know the coordinates of B, C, and O(0,0), and those of A are found from the parallelogram rule. Then you can compute the lengths of all the sides, and setting these expressions equal will give an additional equation relating a and b. Solve the two equations relating a and b together simultaneously, and you'll get the values of a and b. Substitute these into the expressions for the coordinates of A, and you'll be done. - Doctor Rob, The Math Forum http://mathforum.org/dr.math/

Spanking Toddlers Can Lead To Aggressive Behavior
Children who were spanked as toddlers are twice as likely to become aggressive or destructive as they grow older, a team of university researchers claim in a new study.
The findings were published online in the April 12 edition of the Pediatrics as "Mothers' Spanking of 3-Year-Old Children and Subsequent Risk of Children's Aggressive Behavior." The research was completed by Catherine A. Taylor and Janet C. Rice of Tulane University, Jennifer A. Manganello of the University of Albana, and Shawna J. Lee of Wayne State University.Their goal, according to an abstract accompanying the research, "was to examine the association between the use of corporal punishment (CP) against 3-year-old children and subsequent aggressive behavior among those children."
As such, they polled over 2,400 mothers of three to five year old children between 1998 and 2005 and asked them about their youngsters' behavior patterns as well as their own use of spanking as punishment. Unlike previous research in the field, the researchers also asked about other factors, including possible physical or psychological mistreatment, stress, depression, substance abuse, or other related factors had been considered as possible catalysts for aggressive behavior.
Their findings, according to the abstract, show that "frequent use of CP (i.e., mother's use of spanking more than twice in the previous month) when the child was 3 years of age was associated with increased risk for higher levels of child aggression when the child was 5 years of age"¦ even with controlling for the child's level of aggression at age 3 and the aforementioned potential confounding factors and key demographic features."
"Despite American Academy of Pediatrics recommendations to the contrary, most parents in the United States approve of and have used CP as a form of child discipline," the scientists state in their conclusion. "The current findings suggest that even minor forms of CP, such as spanking, increase risk for increased child aggressive behavior. Importantly, these findings cannot be attributed to possible confounding effects of a host of other maternal parenting risk factors."
"Causality is extremely difficult to prove"¦ [but] the evidence is at a point where we want to encourage parents to use techniques other than spanking that can actually lower children's risk for being more aggressive," Taylor, the study's lead author, told Frederik Joelving of Reuters Health on Monday. "Children need guidance and discipline. However, parents should focus on positive, non-physical forms of discipline and avoid the use of spanking."

- Medicine Access and Rational Use > Rational Use
(2005; 165 pages)
8.4.3 Convenience
A product that is easier to use can have a benefit for patients. For example, smaller tablets, fewer daily doses, oral instead of subcutaneous administration, or shorter treatment duration could increase the likelihood of patients adhering to the treatment regimen. There might be benefits for the health service if a new product is easier to administer (e.g. oral instead of intravenous, thus saving staff time and reducing use of equipment) or safer (e.g. a preparation of a cytotoxic drug that does not need reconstituting before administration). Other aspects to consider are storage requirements (especially in warmer climates), the quality, safety and ease of handling of the packaging, and risk of errors due to similar packaging for different drugs or dosages. For examples of packaging evaluation, see the French bulletin la revue Prescrire and the English language edition, Prescrire International (Prescrire Editorial Staff. Drug packaging quality: neglected by regulatory agencies. Prescrire Int 2005;14(77):114. Also Prescrire Editorial Staff. 2004 Packaging awards. Prescrire Int 2005;14(76):66.), and patient information leaflets (risk of medication errors due to inadequate, non-understandable, non-updated information).
However, bear in mind that easier use may come at a price: fewer daily doses mean long absorption and/or elimination half-life. Consequently in some patients the blood concentration of the drug may increase due to accumulation, and high levels may persist even after the drug is stopped - leading to serious adverse reactions. For example, toxic epidermal necrolysis can be caused by various drugs; seizures can be induced by slow-release theophylline. In general, easier use can be a net disadvantage if the harm/benefit ratio of the medicine for patients increases.

It's late in the school year and students are counting down the days until summer break. As a youth pastor, you are in full preparation for the craziness that is summer in youth ministry. But before you write off the school year, remember that you still have around two months on the mission field in your local schools. Your youth ministry challenge for today is simple, but will require some work and initiative on your part.
Youth Ministry Challenge
- Set up a meeting with the principals of the closest Middle/Secondary/Jr. High School and High School.
- Pick their brain about the biggest challenges facing students today. Ask, "What were the biggest obstacles students faced this school year."
- Ask the principals if there is anything you can do to help them. They almost always will tell you to keep doing what you are doing, but make sure they know you are available and willing to help where needed. (Then follow through when the call does come!)
- Set up a meeting with a few coaches and ask the same questions. Coaches often have a ton of insight as to the challenges facing students.
- Ask the coaches what you can do to bless their team. (Gatorade to practice, help with end of year banquets, etc.)
Boom! There you have it. This is enough to fill your calendar for the next couple of weeks. Now go make some calls and send some emails!

Troubled actor and singer Columbus Short insists he is focused on the future despite his growing personal problems.
The "Scandal" star was charged with felony aggravated battery last month after a California judge issued a warrant for his arrest following a bar brawl.
He was also ordered to stay away from the alleged victim and is awaiting trial.
On Tuesday, his estranged wife, Tanee McCall-Short, won a restraining order after Short allegedly threatened to kill her during a bust-up at their house in California earlier this month.
The ruling also requires Short to move out of the family home, but he has now spoken out to insist he is coping in the midst of his personal woes.
He tells People.com, "To be honest with you, I'm feeling raw, focused, vulnerable and in a perfect place to write great music. God's been preparing me for a long time to deal with this season of my life. Being able to have thick skin is something that is needed."
Short also revealed he remains oblivious to the scandals by avoiding media coverage, adding, "You want to know the truth? I don't read anything. I don't read the good stuff and I don't read the bad stuff, because if I read the good stuff, I've got to read the bad stuff. I don't allow myself to make agreements with nonsense so I just don't take it in."

Here are a few things to keep an eye on in the bowl games involving teams from the Big 12 this season.
1. The headless Aggies. A team playing in a bowl after firing its coach is a bit of a rarity, but that's where the Aggies are as they prepare to face Northwestern on Dec. 31 in the Meineke Car Care Bowl of Texas. Defensive coordinator and interim head coach Tim DeRuyter is leaving to become the coach at Fresno State. Former coach Mike Sherman served as their offensive coordinator, too, and it'll be interesting to see what Texas A&M looks like without him. Cyrus Gray is questionable, but Northwestern's defense is a lot different than Texas'. Quarterback Ryan Tannehill should be able to win this game, but will Texas A&M look like it's playing for anything, and will it show it has fixed the second-half woes?
2. Oklahoma State on the big stage. Oklahoma State has played in a lot of big games over the past two years, but the two biggest -- Oklahoma in both years -- were played in its home stadium. The Cowboys never played in a Big 12 title setting and never played in a huge neutral-site game against a team suited to beat them. The Jan. 2 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, opposite Stanford, will be all new for the Cowboys. Will the team look the same after a week unlike anything it has experienced before?
3. Sooners stopping a swoon? Oklahoma finished the season with two losses in its final three games and now will be without Jaz Reynolds in the Dec. 30 Insight Bowl against Iowa. Landry Jones will be missing his No. 1 and No. 3 receivers, and the Hawkeyes' offense will take on a defense that struggled late in the year against Baylor and Oklahoma State. Iowa is closer to Iowa State -- Oklahoma's only victory in the final three games -- but the Sooners had better show up in this one, or this season will get even more forgettable.
4. A finale for RG3? At Baylor, 2011 has been unforgettable. The Bears already have nine wins, a third-place finish in the Big 12 and the school's first Heisman winner. Quarterback Robert Griffin III has become must-see TV, but the Valero Alamo Bowl against Washington on Dec. 29 might be the last time we see him in green and gold. There's no guarantee on either side, but what's Griffin got in store for the finale?
5. Did the Longhorns learn? Texas lamented its holidays at home last year, with players saying they never wanted to experience the feeling again. Several said they couldn't even watch the bowls. Well, the Longhorns are back. How much will they relish the Dec. 28 Holiday Bowl meeting with Cal? Texas should be back to health by then, and a big win in this game might produce big results next fall for a young offense that needs good vibes heading into the offseason.

"They Vibrate" asks to exist in three ways. First impact: visual, thus "saying" that a poem can be beautiful and meaningful as grasped immediately. Second, development in time: aural. Ultimately: a fusion of both. That's why it has been so much fun for me to interact with BPJ on this poem. Lee Sharkey had to futz with the thing as a typesetting problem, as did I on my computer in the first place. But in addition, she described how she and her co-editor John Rosenwald read the poem aloud at the board meeting, each taking one of the words from the pair on each line. One says red, the other says blue, no, red, I said, no, blue, red, blue, Lee John Lee John, with an element of humor, a he/she argument, among others. The waves, then, are the fusion, illustrating that arguments do not consist in there being a right answer, but rather in the perception of a vacillation pattern.
It's interesting to see what happens at cusps of technology. One such cusp occurred in the seventeenth century when a poetic system—friends circulating manuscripts—yielded to the printing of poetry by movable type. Right then, George Herbert's poems, all patterned to an extent, most noticeably "Easter-wings," were left by him only in a fair copy by an unknown hand. After his death, his friend Nicholas Ferrar saw them into print, at which time the patterns were disrupted, were not "true" any longer to the product Herbert called his poems.
Today, the cusp is between printed books and internet texts. Again, in early days, there is a kind of denaturing. Observe this lesson from the Editorial Style Guide of Jacketmagazine.com:
Layout 102: A heartfelt plea to poets fond of fussy indents: Please don't. Poems with indented lines don't work well on the Internet. . . I have heard poets read out loud poems with fussy indents, and guess what? You can't hear the indents at all. No extra pauses are given where the fussy indents appear; the poet reads the text out loud as though it had a normal left margin. So why not print it that way? Please ask yourself honestly what these fussy indents are supposed to mean. What do they actually add to the poem? What is their rhythmic function? They certainly attract attention to the special 'poetic' nature of the text, to a slight extent, but do you need to do that? Shakespeare didn't need them for his sonnets—do you?
Well, actually, yes, I do. The dispenser of advice there assumes that the sound level and the meaning level exhaust the potential of poetry. But for me, poetry is just as connected with silent weaving as it with voice. Line from linen; linen from linnet, a bird known not for its song but for its in-and-out, up-and-down flight pattern. They vibrate. I need every visual device I want to use. I am confident that the internet will catch up some day.

If you're the type of person who occasionally finds herself in heated arguments over things like whether or not it's sacrilege to have anyone but Colin Firth play Mr. Darcy, or whether Heathcliff was more of a tortured soul than Mr. Rochester—then have I got a movie for you!
Well, a miniseries actually. So if you've got four hours to kill (yep, four hours) and a penchant for 19th century British romance, check out the BBC's North and South (2004).
It's based on the book by Elizabeth Gaskell, and apparently I need to get out more because I'd never heard of it before a couple of weeks ago. When I looked it up, I found out that when it first aired, it was so popular that people who saw it literally overwhelmed the message board on its website and caused it to crash. Sounds like a ringing endorsement to me!
So I watched it, and I loved it, and I'll bet you will, too. It's got a hero and heroine who are both flawed but likeable, and the romance that develops between them despite obstacles is one of the sweetest I've seen on film in a long time.
You can find it on Amazon or even watch it in parts on YouTube. If you do see it, let me know what you think!

Sunday discussion: A nation divided Peace rallies fought in Danbury area
Published 4:35 pm, Saturday, April 9, 2011
At 4:30 on the morning of April 12, 1861, Confederate troops began to fire on the federal fort guarding the harbor of Charleston, S.C.
Thirty-three hours later, the exhausted and hungry soldiers defending Fort Sumter surrendered, and an ever-deepening crisis over slavery, state power and national unity had become a war.
Over the next four years, through the nation's bloodiest battles and most heated debates, Americans would redefine their nation.
It would be, as Abraham Lincoln called it, a "new birth of freedom."
This week, Americans will commemorate the 150th anniversary of that Civil War. Museums exhibits, panels, wreath-laying and recitations of speeches will take place throughout the nation.
More InformationOn Tuesday "The Legacy of Our Civil War: 150 Years After Fort Sumter" is a panel discussion to be presented Tuesday by faculty in the history and non-Western culture department at Western Connecticut State University in Danbury. The presentation will begin at 11 a.m. in the atrium of the Hass Library on the university's midtown campus, 181 White St. The public is invited.
Yet many Americans, worried about budgets, war and unemployment, will wonder what difference it makes to remember.
Why should anyone other than the most dedicated history buffs bother with a historic anniversary?
The stories from the Connecticut men and women of 1861 put flesh and bone on that question.
We might hear about Uriah Parmelee, a Yale student eager to enlist in a fight against "the great heart wound, slavery."
A strong opponent of slavery and a determined abolitionist, Parmelee joined the Sixth New York Cavalry, and over the next four years served with distinctive bravery through some of the worst battles.
By March of 1863, he concluded that "there is really something to fight for; I mean freedom."
Parmelee survived the deadly struggles of Chancellorsville, the Wilderness, Spotsylvania Courthouse and Cold Harbor.
Eight days before the Confederate surrender in 1865, Parmelee died in the Battle of Five Forks, near Richmond, Va.
Even now, Parmelee's untimely death echoes with a certain sadness.
Not all Connecticut residents agreed with Parmelee, of course.
Although Connecticut responded rapidly to the onset of war, fielding three regiments in April, and authorizing 10,000 more in May, not everyone supported the Union war efforts.
Until 1863, a "peace" faction flourished in the state's Democratic Party, with supporters arguing for negotiations with the Confederacy.
In the spring and summer of 1861, peace Democrats held rallies and flew white banners emblazoned with "Peace and Union" or "Peace and Our Country," sometimes provoking a violent response.
When a peace flag appeared in Ridgefield in May, a shot was fired in protest.
In New Fairfield, Unionists brawled with peace Democrats while they attempted to replace a peace flag with the Stars and Stripes.
And in Danbury, a band played while "thirty young ladies" raised a peace flag and read a declaration opposing the war.
Many of the soldiers of the 29th Connecticut Volunteer Infantry would have a still different perspective on the war.
Authorized by the state's General Assembly in November 1863, this all-African American unit would be the first of two fielded by the state.
Alexander Newton, who would rise to the rank of Commissary Sergeant in the 29th, later wrote that "the soldiers of the 29th understood the full responsibility of their mission."
I.J. Hill declared that he was willing to "peril my life and die for my country."
Perhaps as much as Parmelee, the men of the 29th knew that they were changing the nation, forging what Lincoln hoped would be a country "by the people, for the people."
Martha (Marcy) May is a professor in the history and non-Western cultures department at Western Connecticut State University in Danbury.

Ex-Mav Josh Howard: Aging Dirk Nowitzki 'is never going to lose' his game
Josh Howard was an integral part of the 2006 Dallas Mavericks team that made the first NBA Finals run in franchise history. But off-the-court problems and injuries led to Howard being traded away to the Washington Wizards midway through the 2009-2010 season.
The Mavs went on to win the NBA Championship without him the following year, but Howard says he never showed any kind of resentment towards his former team.
"I was happy for my teammates. I had an opportunity to make it the finals," he said before competing in the Josh Howard celebrity basketball game in Dallas on Saturday evening. "I still hope I can get there. For those guys to win was great."
Howard went on to say that he was 'especially happy for Dirk Nowitzki' and congratulated him via text after the Mavs' 105-95 Game 6 victory over the Miami Heat.
"Dirk is an excellent leader. He's a Hall of Famer. He's an international sensation," Howard said. "I learned a lot for him, and I carried that over to the Washington Wizards and the Utah Jazz. I appreciate everything he's done."
While many have stated that Nowitzki's time as one of the most dominant players in the league is almost over, Howard believes the 34-year-old still has a lot left in the tank.
"He still has it," he said. "He's an excellent player and a contender. Dirk is never going to lose it."

Local Golf Report: Rain disrupts golf league action
From Tee to Green...
June 24, 2014
Rain, and lots of it was the story line on the local golf scene this past week. But while local golf courses saw heavy rain early in the week, the sun and fun returned just in time for the weekend.
This past Saturday at Prairie Farms Golf Course, the NLASF Scramble was held and the 18-hole tournament was an outstanding success as it always is. The annual tourney helps raise much-needed funds for MSU-Northern athletic scholarships across the board.
First place in the tournament went to Scharfe, Kato and Co., composed of Jim Kato, Carrie Kato, Greg Baltrusch and Shari Baltrusch. Second place was Helena Chemical, made up of Dusty Heath, Jim Benner, Susan Benner and Ken Wagner and third place went to Bear Paw Credit Union with Gerry Veis, Pam Veis, Gunnar VanderMars Eric Fee.
The tourney scene continues next month with the Rotary Blast on July 13.
Speaking of the Rotary Club, it's time to sign kids up for the annual Rotary Youth Golf Camp, which is held July 8-10 at Prairie Farms. The camp is open to boys and girls ages eight and up at a cost of $25 per golfer. To sign up, contact the Pro Shop at Prairie Farms.
While the weekend was good, much of last week wasn't for the golf scene. At Prairie Farms, both nights of men's league were canceled last week. Last Tuesday and Wednesday was to mark the beginning of the second half of the league season. That half will now start with tonight's action and Wednesday.
The ladies did get their league night in Thursday. Havre Heating & AC scored 26.5 points to earn high-team honors. The team was composed of Kelsey Ward, Kim Evans, Karan Evans and Jill Reber. Ali Ward was low gross with a 1-over-par 37, while Paula Sheppard and Tammy Boles tied low net with a 32.

Lines of Light
- Format: CD
|your cart is empty
Jade CDs are widely heard on national and fine music stations throughout Australia, and are recognised as a valuable resource by educational authorities as being uniquely representative of the work of Australian composers. They are manufactured in limited runs of 500 and, as stocks are therefore limited, may be regarded as collectors' items! All Jade CD covers are distinctive. Most Jade CDs have an anthology format and include works by several composers. It's great to have these CDs on offer for a wider audience at CD Baby! 'LINES OF LIGHT' JADCD 1091 Works by: Carson P. Cooman, Robert Allworth, Eric Gross, Ian Shanahan, Derek Strahan, Eric Gross. Duration: 76'06' This is the second Jade CD featuring works by both American and Australian composers. Prolific US composer Carson P. Cooman, also a fine organist, again performs music by Allworth, his 'Suite for organ (2001), Visions of Saint Catherine Laboure, St. Michael the Archangel', commissioned by the Roman Catholic Parish of St. Michael, Callas, New York, USA. Cooman plays three of his own organ works, 'Gallery Music: A Processional Fanfare' (2000), 'Twilight Undulations' & 'Sunburst: A Recessional Fanfare' (2001). These works were all recorded in the USA, featuring the magnificent sonorities of the Organ of the Rochester Christian Reformed Church, Penfield, New York. Allworth also contributes three impressionist solo piano pieces written using serial techniques, depicting favourite harbourside locations in Sydney, Australia; and his impressive 13'00' 'Cardboard Cantata' (2000), written for mandolin ensemble with piano, after the title of a book by Prince Lorenzo Montesini. The CD is named after Shanahan's 'Lines of Light: Seven Improvisation on aitheros melos (Music of the Spheres)' (1991/1993), a work for amplified recorders, Yamaha DX7 keyboard synthesizers and percussion, performed respectively by the composer, Roger Dean and Daryl Pratt. In this strikingly original 11'10' work, Shanahan invokes the notion of solar spectra. Roger Dean also performs Shanahan's short and related solo piano piece, 'Arc Of Light'. Strahan's 'The Beethoven Boogie' (1982), a 9'00' joke for 8-piece jazz ensemble, including cello, satirizes the 80's 'switched-on classics' pop fad, by adapting it's style to an entire movement in strict sonata form. This piece is the last movement of Strahan's Jazz Fusion Suite, of which the first movement,'Triple Six', was released on Jade CD 'Fray' JADCD 1086, and the second movement, 'Free Spirit', on Jade CD 'Music For A Candlelight Dinner' JADCD 1058, both CDs available at CD Baby. In a similar spirit of whimsy, is Gross's lively 'Sally in the Mallee' a short solo piece written for pianist Sally Mays, who requested something 'a little bit crazy'.

Main :: DT50/DT25
by broadfca on 2012-05-29 06:14:51.4450
Hi All, it's obvious I don't know what I'm doing on this forum. So I'm posting this again. Has anyone experienced their DT-50 go dead while playing through it? I was pIaying away, and it just went dead. I pulled the chassis and all the replaceable fuses look good. I'm curious if there may be an infamous part (that someone knows about) in it that fails and kills all the power. It's not under warranty anymore so I'm curious if anyone else has experienced this, please post up.
by DarthHollis on 2012-05-29 06:44:35.5210
Can you please explain what you mean by "dead"? Are the lights still on in the front of the amp? Do the tubes still glow?
I have seen people not have the power cord in the back of the amp all the way.........
It could be very simple or very complicated.
You have done the right thing so far. If the power is completely out and no lights are coming on at all check your power source, then the power cable, then the fuse....keep working in this direction until you rule out certain things.
Even if the fuse does not look blown, it may be. If you have a replacement try it out. I always keep spares because this is the easiest thing to fix and I would be really pissed if it happened at a gig and I didn't have a 50 cent fuse.
If the power is on, check your speaker cable, your guitar chord, the input jack on your guitar....... keep going......
Post back with answers.
It could also be a tube. There are only 4 tubes total. If you have the money I would go buy replacements. If this fixes your problem you are good to go and you can test each individual tube to find out which one(s) was not working. If it doesn't fix your problem then you now have back-up tubes for when you need them.
Worst case scenario is your transformer is blown and you will need to get the amp repaired. If you just got it recently you might be able to return it to the seller and get a replacement.
by spaceatl on 2012-05-29 06:46:01.6130
So is it dead as in no power at all?
You checked the main power fuse? This is overlooked sometimes it's actually in the IEC AC connector on the bottom...
by broadfca on 2012-05-29 07:11:15.1200
I have a 2X12 DT-50. Are you talking about the fuse on the back of the chassis that you need a little flat head screw driver to remove?
by DarthHollis on 2012-05-29 07:26:50.2190
Yes, it should be right next to the power cable.
by kisuco007 on 2012-11-21 12:38:09.9610
Hello can someone tell me where I find this fuse for the sale of the dt-50. Thank you.
The information above may not be current, and you should direct questions to the current forum or review the manual.

John Sweeney, R-Clifton Park, to give back the $30,100 given to his campaign committee in the current election cycle by people whose names appear on the 2006 Congressional Winter Challenge guest list.
The DCCC, not surprisingly, calls the money "scandal tainted." Citizen Action opted for the slightly less inflamatory "questionable" when describing the contributions.
In a letter to the congressman, Citizen Action Executive Director Richard Kirsch accused Sweeney of: "a clear violation of the public trust, an erasing of the line between the public's business and your personal political interest."
Citizen Action, which has tangled with Sweeney in the past and is a frequent surrogate of Democratic candidates – including AG Eliot Spitzer – called on Sweeney to sign a "Voters First pledge, which asks members of Congress and congressional candidates to support the following:
- Public funding for candidates who accept no private contributions.
- Passage and enforcement of "meaningful" restrictions on gifts and travel paid for by lobbyists and "other powerful special interests."
- Full disclosure on the Internet of all lobbyist contributions and fundraising.Â
Sweeney's Deputy Chief of Staff Melissa Carlson says the congressman won't be returning the money. A statement is on its way.
