For wire and cable companies, the aviation industry, even in a time of economic austerity, is a key source of opportunities. Smaller, lighter and more capable cables and wire remain a priority for an industry looking to reduce operating costs and support advanced digital technologies. As they look to boost the capability of new aircraft, operators also need an assist from wire and cable suppliers to stretch out the useful life of their legacy platforms. To meet these challenges, companies are pressing ahead with research and development on products and strategies to address efforts to maintain and upgrade veteran aircraft.
While some market segments have stagnated, "the aerospace industry still represents a huge opportunity for cable suppliers," said John Wadeley, senior global product manager for TE Connectivity. "Confidence throughout the industry remains high, and the pace of R&D … remains strong offering a healthy new product stream at all levels of the supply chain."
There are some complications, however, beginning the high cost of raw materials, such as copper. "Increased material costs have not slowed down the development of new products or reduced the opportunity to (decrease) … size and weight, but it does mean that when these new products hit the market they will come with a higher price tag," said Wadeley.
With regards to R&D, "there certainly is less funding at least from the government side, but I don't know how much in comparison from previous years," said Michael Traskos, president of Lectromec, a wiring test company in Dulles, Va.
The belt tightening is yielding some opportunities, however. "'Sustainment' has become a buzz word in the industry," said Jeff Fyfe, aerospace business leader at W.L. Gore & Associates. "Because of continuing delays to new aircraft platforms caused by technical challenges and/or budget constraints, the industry is looking for ways to 'sustain' current platforms and extend their service life."
"For the most part, they are rewiring these older civil and military aircraft with existing technologies; (for example) …wiring a 1960s aircraft with 1980s designed wire," said Bob Scott, senior wire and cable product manager at A.E. Petsche, an Arlington, Texas-based distributor of wire and cable products. Generally, "this does not pose difficulties because you are talking about the proven reliability … of mature products."
However, Service Life Extension Programs, such as that proposed by the Air Force for the F-16 earlier this year in response to F-35 delays, do provide challenges. Sometimes, these programs call for not just basic maintenance but also avionics improvements that could require "wire and cabling solutions that equal current or higher performance standards," said Fyfe. "At the same time, the wire and cables must be installed within the existing aircraft structure, which means the performance enhancements must be accomplished within the same size or smaller wire and cables," he said. "These tighter configurations leave less room for wire and cables; therefore, they also need to be engineered with additional mechanical strength to prevent damage during routing and installation."
In maintaining and upgrading these older aircraft, there are also challenges related to assessing the safety of the electrical wiring interconnect systems (EWIS) of these platforms. "They are going to need to go through the thousands of maintenance data entries, perhaps tens of thousands … then they need to gather all of the wiring system data together," Traskos said. "We have been working in this field for a while and have developed techniques to automate some of this, but if they are going through this for a first time, it will be a difficult," he said. "Further, once they have all the data, the process of combining the current condition, life projection … and system risk information is complex."
Lectromec is "working with the Air Force right now to help them develop their EWIS risk assessment for service life extension programs," said Traskos.
"As for upgrading, that is a tough proposition for any aircraft in the fleet; I think the last major rewire project was on the F-15s and that (cost) over $500 million," he said. "If anything, maintainers are looking to limit rewiring to subsections in the aircraft … part of this to be justified by results of EWIS risk assessments of the older aircraft."
While progress often comes at slow pace, companies are pressing ahead with R&D efforts aimed at upping the durability and capability of the technologies while reducing size, weight and energy use to meet the power requirements "of (the) more complex, interconnected systems in the aircraft" and "lower operating costs … because less weight equals fuel savings," said Fyfe. Civil aviation's priorities are "reliability, temperature resistance and weight, (while) military aerospace is more focused on size and weight due to the increasing use of advanced electronic systems (pods) that require more reliable performance in harsh environments."
To meet these needs, the companies are developing and deploying products using a variety of strategies as well as conductive and insulation materials and protocols. When it comes to airframe wiring, the large aircraft manufacturers "are still undertaking initiatives to do thinner wall insulations … downsizing gauge size as a weight saving initiative," said Scott. For example, some are "going from 22 to 24 gauge but are running at a higher voltage to have the same power capability."
In the larger sense, the airframe wire world is on the verge of "a revolution with large aircraft manufacturers dismissing conventional wrapped solutions due to the endless problems of visible damage caused during the installation into the airframe," said Wadeley. "This has lead to a drive towards alternative insulation systems based on hybrid constructions and the further development of inorganic films," he said. "This period of change will permanently modify the landscape of the aircraft wire market which has remained largely unchanged for the last 30 years."
When it comes to data cables, "the aerospace industry is facing a step change in the use of high-speed copper cables" to support "the increased demand for passenger entertainment and information technology especially on the long haul routes," said Wadeley. To boost capability, industry is adopting protocols imported from commercial electronics and automotive industry, such as the Ethernet, Digital Visual Interface, Universal Serial Bus (USB) and Controller Area Network (Can) bus. Cables used for "these protocols are normally unsuitable for use on aircraft, so the cable industry is being challenged to create new offerings using higher temperature and tougher materials," Wadeley said.
On a practical note, "customers are still asking for higher temperature jackets so they can run cable along with their main wiring and not have to separate, which reduces engineering time and labor time for installation," said Kerry Stuckart, product manager, coax cables, at Emteq, based in New Berlin, Wis.
The pursuit of higher speed, higher data rates gigabit speeds has significantly increased the use of more fiber on military and civil aircraft for instrumentation and weapons systems and on the commercial side for in-flight entertainment systems, said Scott.
As the "experience with fiber improves," the trend has been for fiber solutions "to proliferate within the industry," Wadeley said. "For commercial aircraft, there are more systems and platforms that are supporting up to 10 Gbps on 50 uM (micron) fiber OM3/OM4 fibers," he said. However, the challenge has been to get a user friendly fiber that could just be "cut and used."
There have been recent advances, such as on the Irvine, Calif.-based Lumexis's fiber to the screen (FTTS), Wadeley said. The system, which TE Connectivity helped develop and uses that company's fiber ARINC 810 connectors, is a "complete fiber solution that gives excellent bandwidth capacity to assist in implementation of wireless solutions on an ample bandwidth backbone," said Wadeley. "There are other systems that are employing partial solution backbones, but none have been able to match their bandwidth performance to date." The system has attracted three customers to date flydubai, Transaero and Pacific Royale Airways.
Along with ARINC 801 termini, TE Connectivity also offers and expanded beam technologies for fiber optics solutions along with its Quadrax connectors and cables that support 1-gigabit Ethernet requirements.
"Fiber is a great way to transfer more data and reduce cable size and weight, (but) I see fiber being more prevalent and accepting in shorter runs, seat-to-seat IFE [in-flight entertainment] type installations," said Stuckart. "There is still the concern and hesitancy with working with fiber optic cable and field terminations; (however), fiber is a technology that Emteq definitely plans to support," she said, adding the company is continuing to focus of developing innovative ways to expand it high definition aircraft grade cable and is currently "working on multiple product designs" to meet the "increased demand for longer lengths."
Currently, "fiber optics and copper cables are both used in aircraft, with copper remaining the dominant media for signal transmission," said Fyfe. "This may change over time, but a complete change from copper to fiber optics is not expected." While higher bandwidth might be "driving the increased use of fiber optics, RF, power and system constraints still require improved copper cabling."
"Copper and fiber always have and always will coexist," Wadeley said. "As the higher speeds are implemented the challenge will be to make sure proper tools/interfaces are employed to assure the end applications employ proper matched impedance performance that work in concert with the application and performance demands."
Meanwhile, "the introduction of copper clad aluminum conductors has offered huge weight savings to aircraft manufacturers, but these savings have come at a price," Wadeley said. "The connector/cable industry is still wrestling with inexpensive reliable termination, and because of this, the uptake has been patchy with only one manufacturer taking wholesale advantage of this new technology."
Looking to the future, there has been "steady progress" in work with carbon nanotubes (CNT), said Wadeley. "We are working with key selected customers investigating several approaches to the solution and have made working prototypes that are based on the following concepts: CNT, CNT shielded/traditional conductor, and CNT-metal hybrid constructions," he said. "This development is still with the AD&M [Aerospace, Defense & Marine] advanced development group but will transition to a manufacturing group sponsorship when it is sufficiently mature."
Last year, Concord, N.H.-based Nanocomp Technologies was awarded a contract from Northrop Grumman under the U.S. Army Manufacturing Technology Program (ManTech) to develop manufacturing best practices for carbon nanotube cabling and tapes, intended for insertion into aircraft as a replacement for conventional copper-based wires and cables.
"Using fiber optics is only one way to reduce weight; other material technologies, such as engineered fluoropolymers, can also offer weight reduction," said Fyfe. In fact, "the industry would like to have the electrical performance of a normal-weight wire in a lightweight form," said Tom Sharp, Gore's new product development specialist. "The trend has been to develop lightweight versions of standard products by using advanced polymers, (but) the challenge is developing an insulation system that is mechanically robust over a wide range of temperatures up to 260°C," said Sharp. "As aircraft begin operating at higher altitudes with extremely cold temperatures, the industry is (also) beginning to request improved low-temperature performance."
"By manipulating engineered fluoropolymers, we are developing new materials that maintain integrity in extreme temperatures and other harsh conditions," Sharp said.
Gore's key initiatives are aimed at providing "solutions that maintain electrical and mechanical integrity in the challenging aerospace environments," said Fyfe. "For example, our new cable-based antennas (often referred to as leaky lines or leaky feeders) improve signal propagation without increasing the amount of hardware required on … both wide-body and single-aisle passenger aircraft," he said. The technology provide access "to different wireless protocols, so passengers can easily connect to in-flight entertainment, Internet servers, and email accounts," said Fyfe.
The company also offers GORE SKYFLEX Aerospace Materials that provide "long-lasting protection against chafing and abrasion in both rotary and fixed-wing aircraft surfaces."

Truckee High baseball coach, 46, dies over weekend
A memorial service for Mike Ellis will be held at Assumption Catholic Church — 10930 Alder Drive, Truckee — on Monday at 2 p.m. A tribute at FiftyFifty Brewing Co. in Truckee will follow the service.
TRUCKEE, Calif. — The Truckee High baseball program lost its charismatic leader Saturday night.
Mike Ellis, who took over as head coach of the Wolverines in 2005 and had led the team to six consecutive state championship appearances, died of an apparent heart attack, school officials confirmed.
He was 46.
"It's hard to accept — a young guy like that with so much to give," said Tom Glover, Ellis' youth baseball coach in Forestville, Calif., north of the Bay Area. "I can still see his face the last time we met, laughing and stuff. We lost a very close friend."
Dozens of Truckee players, parents and alumni gathered Sunday afternoon at the school's baseball field, where Truckee Athletic Director Jaime Legare informed them of the news.
Legare said the meeting began solemnly but gradually turned to an atmosphere of fond reminiscing about the longtime Truckee coach, known to most as "Ellie."
"He was a great guy," said an emotional Legare, who added that an autopsy is being performed to determine the exact cause of death; Ellis did take medication for an enlarged heart. "You could tell that he didn't just coach his players, he touched their lives. It was so interesting to have so many alumni just pouring out of the woodwork and calling and texting and trying to figure out what happened. They're just heartbroken. He was kind of infectious. All the kids just loved him."
Truckee assistant coach Michael Taylor, a former Truckee player who graduated in 2009, will take over as interim head coach the remainder of the season.
"Personally, he's the reason I got into baseball as much as I did," Taylor said of Ellis, whom he described as a baseball-loving kid trapped in an adult's body. "After my freshman year I almost quit, and he took me under his wing and kind of coached me up a little extra. He kind of molded me into the ballplayer and person I am today. He was incredibly influential."
Taylor was among the large group gathered at the Truckee field Sunday. "It was heartbreaking," he said. "The kids were in tears. It was tough for me to watch that."
Aside from showing frustration with his team losing, Ellis seemed to be in generally good spirits Saturday afternoon when the Wolverines hosted a league doubleheader against South Tahoe. In fact, it was that positive aspect of his personality that his friends and rivals remember most.
"He was a great guy, first of all — not just a great coach. Everybody knew that," said longtime Spring Creek baseball coach Scott Gilligan. "He had an enthusiasm for life and the game that was second to none. We coached against each other for a long time. We always wanted to beat each other, of course. But after the game, it was always a hug and we were friends.
"It's tough. I honestly am struggling with this. In all my years I've never heard anybody say one bad thing about Ellie — and that speaks volumes about who he was. He was just so upbeat, and it was contagious to his kids, who always played well. It's a sad time."
South Tahoe coach Starbuck Teevan said he, too, was saddened by the news of Ellis' death.
"I've only known Ellie for four or five years, but as a baseball guy, they really don't get any better," Teevan said. "I think we're a lot alike. There's definitely a brotherhood of coaches, and I'm very sad to hear of his passing. He was definitely a good friend of mine in the time that I've known him. He's definitely going to be missed by everybody in the league."
Former North Tahoe coach Bob Habeger echoed the other coaches' sentiment. He described Ellis not only as a knowledgeable and dedicated coach, but also a good human being who cared about his players.
"My initial thoughts were, 'Man, who's going to take over and fill his shoes with all that he's done for the Truckee program and the summer program.' It's definitely a huge loss," said Habeger, who knew Ellis for about 12 years, dating back to his coaching days at North Tahoe, when Ellis was still an assistant. "His kids always played hard for him, and they had a good time. Not only was he a good coach, and knew baseball, he was just a good guy."
Aside from his infectious personality, Glover remembers Ellis as a talented player as a youth. "Mikey had great power," he said. "He could hit the ball a long way."
After starring at El Molino High School, Ellis went on to play at Santa Rose Junior College and later became a professional scout for the Cincinnati Reds. He also constructed his own wood bats, which he called Sweet Spot Baseball Bats. The Glovers own one of the bats.
"He was so thoughtful. He'd come by the house after all these years and bring us stuff and sit down and visit for a couple hours. The thing was, he just had a spirit around baseball that, when he was around it, he was in his world. He was at home and at peace," Glover said. "He loved the game, and he loved people and seeing them succeed. There was nothing selfish about Mike. He'd help in any way he could. He never asked; he always gave. And in turn, he received a lot."
Ellis may never have been more happy on a baseball field than he was on May 19, 2012 — the day his Wolverines earned Truckee's first baseball state title since 1994. That team finished 29-6 overall and carried a 15-game winning streak into the state final against Elko, which Truckee defeated in nail-biting fashion at Nevada's Peccole Park.
Even when things were not going Truckee's way, Ellis had a way of easing the mood of his players, said Truckee assistant coach Scott Decker, a 2006 grad who also played for Ellis.
"No matter how down he got abut anything, he always left with a smile. Even after a bad loss he'd crack a joke and get everyone smiling again," Decker said. "If anything he almost cared too much. He just had the biggest heart. … At every single banquet he'd cry. He just loved everyone. He'd get all choked up. I used to give him crap about it."
No one ever put more time and effort into working on the Truckee baseball field than Ellis, who could be spotted nearly any time of the year grooming the field. He added grass to the previously all-dirt infield, overhauled the dugouts and spruced up the outfield fencing, among other improvements. He retired two of his players' jerseys in the outfield, JR Murphy and Jason Chapman.
"He worked tirelessly on the field," Legare said. "I told the kids yesterday that it's a bittersweet thing to meet at the field because everywhere I look I think of conversations with him, whether it was in the dugout or by the Slurpee machine or outfield — that field is him."
On Monday, Truckee players and alumni conducted a scrimmage on the school field, where they were joined by Ellis' parents and sister.
"Michael's whole life was baseball," said his mother, Sue. "He lived and breathed baseball. It kept him out of trouble."
Ellis had a daughter named Lexi who celebrated her first birthday on March 28.
Counseling will be available for players and any other students at the school's Wellness Center this week, Legare said.
A memorial service will be held at the Assumption Catholic Church — 10930 Alder Drive, Truckee, CA 96161 — on Monday at 2 p.m. A tribute at FiftyFifty Brewing Co. in Truckee will follow the service.

I love, love that this is such a simple, and fast recipe! It's literally on the table within 30 minutes. It's also delicious! I agree...you do not miss the meat! I did not have the Mexican Stewed Tomatoes, but I did have Italian stewed tomatoes on hand - they were just fine. I did use 2 cans to get a little more juice in my chili. Oddly enough, I had a can of Mexican style corn! So it all worked out! This is a recipe that doesn't suffer with bean, or vegetable substitutions. So, when your stock is running low - you can improvise!
Jan 28, 2011
This recipe is great for vegetarians! I had to add just a little water to make it souper for me.
Mar 3, 2010
This is so good you won't miss the meat! I make a double-batch of this about once a month and freeze 1/2 of it in single servings. Wonderful!
Jan 7, 2010
Super easy to make and delicious. Used Bush's Chili Beans in mild sauce (no meat) and reduced the spice amounts slightly.

A Facebook executive said that Facebook will now specifically be asking users why they hide certain posts on their news feed, according to a report.
Facebook ad products manager Fidji Simo said that the social network will let users choose why they hide posts, according to ABC News.
Now a new sidebar would pop up and ask users to choose a label for the post: Uninteresting, Misleading, Sexually explicit, Against my views, Offensive, Repetitive and Other, the Next Web reported. From the piece:
U.S. & World
The usefulness will run two ways, as it helps Facebook increase the relevancy of both its product and the ads it runs alongside it.
From the report, it's assumed that most of this will not be about posts by real people, but about ads that appear along news feeds, usually unwelcome annoyances anyway. Will anyone care to exert that much energy to explain why an ad is irrelevant?
It's unknown if users are willing to give specific information to a company built to better sell them something, but regardless, Simo said, the changes will be coming gradually in the next few months.

Clever idea, but doesn't accurately represent the classification scheme (for LC, at least - I didn't try Dewey). There are many call numbers formatted incorrectly, and the game I tried included the initial letter O which does not exist in LC. It's too bad, because this would have been a fun training tool for new shelving staff.

@Hillary, Good point, and one I'm aware of; however, for the game to work there had to be a zero--if I can figure out a work around in the future, it will be changed, but for now it's minor enough that most people haven't even noticed. @Kathy, Android's a bit harder to develop on--especially with Honeycomb finally coming out; in a few months, there might be something there though...

Four MPS high school students accused in robbery, attack
Four Milwaukee high school students are accused of robbing and punching a young man.
The Bradley Tech students are accused of planning the robbery during school lunch.
Three of the four Bradley Tech students are on the basketball team, and after practice Friday, are accused of heading from school to the east side to carry out their plan.
They were specifically looking for an easy victim, waiting near Bartlett and North North avenues, where police said they attacked a young man passing on a skateboard, knocking him to the ground, beating him and taking $73.
Retired teacher David Reber keeps an eye on the neighborhood. He said nearby college students especially need to be more alert.
"I think they see that as an easy mark, and when you have people walking around on their cellphones, not paying any attention of what's going on around their environment, that's being a little foolish," Reber said.
The four carried out their plan at Bartlett and North avenue for a reason, according to the criminal complaint.
Suspect Latrell Katherine told police, "They talked about how they wanted to go down by Riverside because it's easier to get people, meaning that people are easier to rob."
Ryan Woodruff has lived in the area his whole life and said that's really nothing new.
"I think people come from the north and west side here to rob people because there's more money here. It's just a more affluent area," Woodruff said.
The four high school students face up to 15 years in prison.
The victim wasn't seriously injured.
WISN 12 News contacted Milwaukee Public Schools. A spokesman said, "While this occurred outside of school hours, and away from school grounds, we take these allegations very seriously and will take appropriate disciplinary action."

Zach Sobiech, who wrote the viral farewell song "Clouds," lost his battle with bone cancer Monday morning. He was 18.
The Children's Cancer Research Fund shared the news on its website, writing: "Zach was at home and at peace with those he loved most. Zach's life ended just as he lived, embraced by the love of his family, friends, grace and music."
Sobiech, who was diagnosed with osteosarcoma when he was 14, was told last June that he had only one year to live. On Dec. 5, the Minnesota high school senior posted a farewell song, "Clouds," on YouTube. It has since reached more than three millions views and landed him a songwriting contract with BMI. It even inspired The Office's Rainn Wilson to lead fellow celebs in a lip-sync tribute to Sobiech's song just two weeks ago.
Remember other celebs we've lost this year"Cancer may have taken Zach too soon, but he leaves a lasting legacy that most of us will never achieve," The Children's Cancer Research Fund's statement continued. "His message of love and hope delivered through infectious lyrics and memorable tunes have imprinted on the minds and hearts of millions around the world."Sobiech is survived by his parents, Rob and Laura, and siblings Alli, Sam and Grace. The family asks that all memorials be directed to the Zach Sobiech Osteosarcoma Fund."His legacy will also help the children of tomorrow who learn that they have osteosarcoma, the type of cancer that took Zach's life," The statement reads. "Because of Zach, his family's support, and the donations of thousands in his name, kids with osteosarcoma will have better outcomes in the future. This was a source of comfort to Zach in his last days, and will provide comfort to his family going forward."Watch "Clouds" below.

One year ago, on Valentine's Day, I could've sworn I was going to die alone. And I might die alone, who knows, but right now it feels like I might be OK, which feels great! and hopeful!
Two years ago, on Valentine's Day, I went to dinner with my best friend, Teri, and the server thought we were a lesbian couple. It kind of made us chuckle.
Here's the thing about Valentine's Day: I get that it's about love, cupid and chocolate or whatever, but it's kind of an exclusive holiday.
It's like, if you're psyched to be in a relationship, married, etc., then it's awesome. And if you're single and excited to be single, then it's sort of just an ignored holiday. But, if you're single and you don't want to be single, then Valentine's Day is an annoying holiday.
Since I think exclusivity is just stupid, I've made you a dish for you to make for yourself.

William & Mary's new mascot, the Griffin, arrived on campus yesterday. Here, you'll find a round up of some of the media coverage of our new mascot.
And you most assuredly don't want to miss these on William & Mary's YouTube channel:
For me, I love the Griffin, and I'm happy we have a mascot (to be frank, any mascot).
But, right now, what I really feel is grateful. Because of the mascot search, I had my first opportunity to work with W&M's Athletic Director, Terry Driscoll. Terry did a super job spearheading our effort and it was an immense pleasure to work with him. Many, many people worked behind the scenes on the W&M Mascot Search. They deserve our thanks for a fun, inclusive, and carefully-planned process.
- Mascot Search Committee
- W&M Athletics
- Creative Services
- University Relations
- Alumni Association
- College Communications Council
- Tribal Fever
- Brian Whitson, University Relations
- Joel Pattison, Creative Services
- Pete Clawson, W&M Athletics
- Eric Pesola, Alumni Association
- Amy Schindler, Swem Library
- Spencer Milne, W&M Athletics
- Pete Kalison '57
In my humble opinion, The Flat Hat said it best:
Now it's up to the campus community to accept the Griffin, and we think it should. We're willing to admit it is difficult to accept something that was, in a way, arbitrarily imposed, and acknowledge that some may not even try. But, as new classes of students enter the College to see the Griffin excitedly exhort the Tribe — a nickname we are happy to see the College retain — we believe the Griffin will soon become a welcome and reputable symbol. Although it took a while to get here, we're on Team Griffin.
Go Tribe! Shout out to the Griffin!
– Susan T. Evans, Director of Creative Services, The College of William & Mary
Posted in Communication | Comments Off on Tribe Pride welcome to the Griffin. Wrapup: the mascot search is over.

If you're looking for big bass on a small budget, the folks at Arc Audio have got just what you need in the form of their XDi1000.1 Class D amplifier. The XDi series of amps are designed to provide big power from a compact chassis, and at only $439 bucks (US), the price
is equally as compact.
Rated at 375, 650, and 1000 watts into 4, 2, and 1 ohm respectively, but measuring only 11.25" x 6.5" x 2.25", the powerful XDi1000.1 will fit into virtually any available space. The Arc Audio amp is nicely finished in a black anodized coating, with brushed aluminum accents providing nice contrast on the raised heatsink fins. Heavy duty power and speaker terminals are found on one end of the amp, with four gauge power connections, and a pair of dual paralleled speaker terminals that will easily accept eight gauge cable. The convenient dual speaker terminals provide easy wiring configurations for driving multiple woofers. Three 40A ATC fuses are also located on the "business end" of the amp, between the terminal blocks.
And while the XDi1000.1 may be modestly priced, it boasts features that are typically found on much more expensive products. Of course there is the usual gain and crossover controls (55-250Hz) but there is also a 10-50Hz subsonic filter, a variable phase control, and a bass boost EQ circuit with not only variable boost, but variable frequency (40-100Hz) as well! This parametric type EQ can be really handy during tuning of the subwoofer system to a specific vehicle or listeners taste. Plus, a wired remote control allows overall bass level control from the driver's seat.
A look inside proves that the XDi is built for the long haul. The PCB is two layer glass epoxy "FR4" material, and features surface mount very low tolerance parts. The power supply switching is handled by eight TO-220 case MOSFETs and two pair of large TO-247 case MOSFETs take care of the output. The power supply is fed energy via over 23,000µF of capacitance, and the pout section uses another 8,800µF of capacitance to store energy. All this power is constantly monitored by several different protection circuits, including protection from short circuits, over voltage, and over temperature. The blue "power on" LED will illuminate in red if any of the protection circuits become activated, so you'll always know what's going on.
One of the best things about this type of amplifier, this one in particular, is excellent efficiency at "everyday" power levels. Sure, there are lots of amplifiers that profess to have better than 80% efficiency at full power. But the truth is, the vast majority of our listening is never done at full power. This is where a good design really stands out, when you look at overall efficiency at fractional power levels. What I'm talking about here, is how much power the amp consumes, when it's only putting out 20, 50 or 100 wattswhere the majority of us do most of our listening. And this is where the Arc Audio XDi 1000.1 shines. This amplifier is over 80% efficient at 1/3 power levels, and draws less than 2 amps of current to produce 10 watts of power into 4 ohms. This means a much easier load on your charging system, plus a cooler running amplifier, because less power is lost to heat.
There are literally dozens of amplifiers available to drive your subwoofers. Some are very small, and take up minimal space. Some are very powerful, and can drive 1 ohm loads all day long. Some come with a full complement of signal adjustments and tuning functionality to help you tweak things exactly as you like them. And still others are simply very affordable, and offer good value.
The Arc Audio XDi1000.1 does all of the above, and there simply aren't too many others that can make that claim.

Celebrate the Assumption at Mary's Cathedral
Aug. 15 feature from our Aug. 12 issue: Grand Church Features Gothic Style
Although the Church has always believed Mary was assumed into heaven body and soul, the dogma of her assumption wasn't officially proclaimed until 1950 by Pope Pius XII. Ever since, the Church celebrates the Assumption as a holy day of obligation on Aug. 15.
In his 2004 Assumption homily, Blessed John Paul II quoted from Lumen Gentium, saying, "Her assumption thus becomes for us 'a sign of sure hope and consolation.'"
Decades before the official dogma, the mother church of the Diocese of Fall River, Mass., was already proclaiming this belief with its very name — the Cathedral of St. Mary of the Assumption.
The cathedral has a unique connection to an earlier Pope and saint too, when it became the cathedral for the new Diocese of Fall River in 1904 — the first diocese erected by Pope St. Pius X.
St. Mary of the Assumption was founded in mission territory in 1838. Back then, the first chapel was named after St. John the Baptist. But when Father Edward Murphy, the parish's second pastor, arrived in 1840 — and as Fall River expanded into a thriving textile center peopled by Irish immigrants — he replaced the chapel with a grand church and renamed it in honor of the Blessed Mother.
Father Murphy, a native of Ireland, hired church architect Patrick Charles Keely of Brooklyn to design the cathedral. Keely designed this elegant 11th-century English Gothic-style church, with its single offset steeple.
The cornerstone was laid Sept. 8, 1852, the day the Church celebrates the birth of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and the church was dedicated in December 1856. As was often his custom, Keely designed the exterior using local materials. For this magnificent ecclesial landmark, it was Fall River's own lovely light-gray granite.
Like many churches then, much was built by scores of working-class parishioners, laboring with love after their own regular jobs. The interior remained unadorned until another pastor arrived, but that didn't happen quickly — Father Murphy was pastor until 1887.
A few blocks off the major highway that transverses Fall River, its 190-foot single bell tower is quite visible. Located on a quiet block in the heart of the city, the grand granite edifice welcomes visitors to contemplate its grandeur and God.
St. Mary's was consecrated in 1901, before being named a cathedral. By then, Father Christopher Hughes was adorning the interior.
The first of St. Mary's five major renovations came in 1891, with the installation of stained-glass windows from the legendary Munich glassworks. Next arrived reverential Stations of the Cross — white monochrome scenes sculpted in high relief and placed within ornate Gothic wood frames.
The pastor added the superb carved-wood screens in the sanctuary and the substantial hammer-beam wooden ceiling, later restored and decorated with gold leaf.
Even after several renovations over the decades, these beautiful works are part of the sure foundations that keep the cathedral anchored in its history, spanning into a third century. The last renovations were in 2001, except for recent repainting.
The sanctuary was expanded by the next rector, Msgr. James Cassidy, who became bishop in 1934.
He added carved statues of apostles, saints and angels and the narthex's beautiful screen to house the Sacred Heart Shrine and baptistery. He commissioned premier woodcarver and Oberammergau-native Johannes Kirchmayer, then of Boston, to carve the life-sized "Crucified Savior" on a front pillar facing the congregation.
The 1950s renovations added the meticulous multicolored stenciled designs decorating the arches, and clerestory walls gained symbols of Mary.
After Vatican II, the high altar was removed. But the magnificent marble carving of the Last Supper on the 1900 marble altar now graces the front of the new altar, connecting the history of worship here, as do the early-20th century carved statues of the Twelve Apostles, which line the dark oak reredos around the apse. And the 1979 pulpit was formed from the original carved wood baldacchino, with added herald angels blaring trumpets.
The left sanctuary shrine now reserves the tabernacle, framed by a gracefully carved wood canopy with four statues, each ornately carved. They represent faith, hope, love and humility.
The cathedral's glorious stained-glass windows blend together even though they were installed in three different periods.
The nave's 1891 Munich windows, radiating vibrant colors, are a bit out of the ordinary. Rather than biblical scenes, they form a procession of saints, two by two, around the church. Above the saints, round shamrock-like windows remind one of the Trinity, and their groupings of three also reflect the Holy Trinity.
The current rector of the cathedral, Father Paul Bernier, pointed out that the splendid lineup of saints presents an equal number of males and females.
These saints give the faithful plenty to ponder. Francis, holding a crucifix, his stigmata visible, stands next to St. Clare, who holds a monstrance. Veronica displays her veil with the Holy Face of Jesus.
The gathering also features unusual pairings, such as Michael and Mary Magdalene holding a jar of nard; Aloysius and Anthony of Padua holding the Child Jesus; Rose of Lima and Christopher; Elizabeth and Ursula; Vincent de Paul with Margaret of Cortona; and King David, wearing a crown and cradling his harp, next to Teresa of Avila, with arrow, quill and book.
Agatha and Queen Elizabeth of Hungary, robed in green and light purple, with a tray of bread and roses in her garment, are also on display.
The sanctuary's windows also display much to ponder. Installed in 1915, they look years older, with their English pre-Raphaelite style. They showcase the Joyful, Sorrowful and Glorious Mysteries of the Rosary.
A mural in red, blue and ornate gold above them is a reminder of Mary's assumption, while, in the choir loft, the original Keely rose window has a central "AM" — for Ave Maria. Under it, the Assumption is pictured in three lancet windows from 1952.
Daily Masses are held in the Lady Chapel, which dates to 1869. It's reminiscent of an English village's small gothic chapel, thanks to the dark oak wainscoting and the carved rood screen depicting the Crucifixion. Stained-glass windows honoring Our Lady in the Nativity and some other Marian titles look like they date to centuries ago. The Fatima window was installed in 1952.
Outside the chapel, the statue of Our Lady, cast in France in 1900, is yet another way this beautiful cathedral has long — for more than 150 years — honored Mary and her assumption.

|International Space Station Imagery
high res (1.3 M) low res (94 K)
|ISS006-E-33084 (24 February 2003) --- Astronauts Kenneth D. Bowersox (right) and Donald R. Pettit, Expedition Six mission commander and NASA ISS science officer, respectively, participate in a scheduled extravehicular activity (EVA) development test objective (DTO) in the Quest Airlock on the International Space Station (ISS). The test demonstrated the ability of two crewmembers to safely get into the American Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EMU) spacesuit without the assistance of a third crewmember; that ability is a prerequisite to sending smaller crews to ISS while the space shuttle fleet remains grounded during the investigation of the Columbia accident. Bowersox and Pettit helped each other into their EMU spacesuits, donned jet backpacks called Simplified Aid for EVA Rescue (SAFER), set up the necessary equipment for a pre-breathe of oxygen to purge nitrogen from their bloodstreams, and then got out of the spacesuits.

Not only do they sell amazing vegan lip balms that smell and taste amazing (i.e. their famous tea-inspired Brew & coffee-inspired Perk lines) but now they have their signature lip balms with all natural mineral pigmentation that'll add a lil' subtle hint of color to those sexy smackers.
Crazy Rumors Lip Balms are all natural, vegan, gourmet and these particular ones in this post are hibiscus inspired lip tints that come in a variety of shades: Tropical (red with purple undertones), Coral (rich pink), Sunset (red-orange), Sunrise (orange-ish), Pearl (light pink) & Breeze (brownish-pink). If you've never tried Crazy Rumors before, you really need to treat yourself to a yummy tube. They are ultra moisturizing and to be quite honest, they are addictive. I keep one in my purse, one in each bathroom, one in my car and one by my bedside.
If you can't decide on a single shade (my favorite happens to be Tropical), buy all six for the price of 5 ($30). They'll even throw in a bonus Red Hibiscus Lip Balm with every 6 pack order.
Ingredients: Certified Organic Jojoba Oil, Certified Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Certified Organic Shea Butter, Candelilla Wax, Soy Wax, Mica, Titanium Dioxide, Iron Oxide, Natural & Organic Flavors, Vitamin E, Certified Organic Carnauba Wax, Natural Stevia & Hibiscus Flower
Other Crazy Rumors lip balm lines include: Fresh Squeezed, A La Mode, Brew, Perk, Gumball & Candy Cane – I highly recommend them all!

Cool. Love these…I will have to totally try these!!
What a great find! I hope I can find these in Germany as well!! 🙂 I really like your blog! *bookmarked*
I REALLY enjoyed your post and blog! It took me a little bit to discover your site…but I book marked it. Would you mind if I posted a link back to your post? Peace!I enjoyed reading your blog!
Hello from Russia!
Can I quote a post in your blog with the link to you?
These are the nicest, cruelty-free lip glosses I've found; I'm addicted to the Orange from the Fresh Squeezed line and I've got my mom addicted to the Raspberry Sorbet from A La Mode. I've been meaning to try this new, colorful line, but it's hard to tell shade over the net. Thank you for your descriptions!
I really want to try these! 🙂 I haven't seen them in stores, I don't think. I keep forgetting to check for them in health food stores. I really want to try the A La Mode and Fresh Squeezed lines.

In the past, we have received a number of queries about the status of the PDBbind core set. We also noticed that there are some confusions in literature regarding the naming convention of the CASF benchmark developed by our group. Here, we would like to make a formal statement about the PDBbind core set and the CASF benchmark in a hope to answer those queries and also clarify the confusion.
Our group has a long-standing interesting in scoring function development. The PDBbind database is a notable outcome along the path (Liu et al., Acc. Chem. Res. 2017, 50, 302-309). The PDBbind database is now updated on an annual basis, and each release of PDBbind is named after the release year, such as PDBbind v.2016, PDBbind v.2017, and so on. The PDBbind database collects experimentally measured binding affinity data for four types of molecular complexes, i.e. protein-ligand complexes, nucleic acid-ligand complexes, protein-protein complexes, protein-nucleic acid complexes. Among them, we have named the collection of protein-ligand complexes as the "general set". We put a focus on this data set because it is most relevant to drug design and discovery studies. Apparently, not every entry in the general set is suitable for calibrating or validating docking/scoring methods due to misc problems in 3D structure, binding data, and other aspects. Therefore, we have selected the relatively "healthy" entries from the general set to compile the so-called "refined set". The refined set serves as a generally acceptable data set for docking/scoring studies. Other researchers may apply the refined set directly to their studies, or use the refined set as the starting point to compile data sets with their own focus. Both the general set and the refined set are updated with the PDBbind database on an annual basis. They should be correctly cited as, for example, "the PDBbind general set v.2016", "the PDBbind refined set v.2017", and so on.
As another part of our efforts, we have established the CASF benchmark (Comparative Assessment of Scoring Functions), which aims at providing an objective platform for assessing scoring functions. The first published work was CASF-2007 (Cheng et al., J. Chem. Inf. Model. 2009, 49, 1079-1093). Another major update, i.e. CASF-2013, was published a few years later (Li et al., J. Chem. Inf. Model. 2014, 54, 1700-1716; J. Chem. Inf. Model. 2014, 54, 1717-1736). The CASF benchmark employs a high-quality set of protein-ligand complexes as the primary test set. This data set is selected from the PDBbind refined set through a systematic, non-redundant sampling procedure, which is named as the PDBbind "core set" by us. Accordingly, each public release of the CASF benchmark is named after the version of the PDBbind database from which the test set is selected. For example, the test set in CASF-2007 was compiled based on PDBbind v.2007, the test set in CASF-2013 was compiled based on PDBbind v.2013, and so on. It is not a good idea to name each CASF benchmark by its publish year. It is because we cannot predict when our paper will be published in prior when we prepare the manuscript.
It is important to point out that unlike the PDBbind database, the PDBbind core set is not updated on an annual basis. As implied above, the PDBbind core set is a component of the CASF benchmark rather than the PDBbind database. The CASF benchmark is not updated on an annual basis due to the following reasons:
• A HUGE amount of efforts is needed to finish each CASF update. The CASF benchmark is more than a simple data set. For instead, it consists of a whole set of evaluation methods, the test set, as well as a large panel of standard scoring functions to be tested as demonstration. A lot of material needs to be prepared, and a lot of computation needs to be conducted for each CASF update.
• Even if it were doable, in our opinion, there is no need to update CASF so frequently. Our current plan is to update the CASF benchmark every three years. In fact, we have already finished CASF-2016, and are preparing a manuscript regarding it. We hope that this paper can be published in the year of 2018.
As mentioned above, the last published version of the PDBbind core set is v.2013. This data set was not updated with PDBbind v.2014 and v.2015, so there is no PDBbind core set v.2014 and v.2015. For historical reasons, the PDBbind core set used to be included in the downloadable data package in some previous releases of PDBbind. To avoid further confusion, we have removed the core set from the data packages of recent releases of PDBbind (e.g. PDBbind v.2014, v.2015, v.2016, and v.2017). If needed, the user can obtain the information of the PDBbind core set in the data package of the corresponding CASF benchmark (e.g. CASF-2007 and CASF-2013), which is also downloadable from the PDBbind-CN web site.
In conclusion, the take-home message is:
• The CASF benchmark should not be referred to as the "PDBbind benchmark". There are such wrong naming conventions in literature, and now you know what the correct one is.
• Data package of the CASF benchmark can be downloaded from the PDBbind-CN web site under the "CASF" tab (http://www.pdbbind-cn.org/casf.asp). At this point, we do not think it is necessary to set up two separate web sites to host PDBbind and CASF, respectively.
• Currently, the latest public release of the CASF benchmark is CASF-2013. There will be CASF-2016 soon.

VANCOUVER — The expanding empire of Angry Birds, the addictive digital export of Finnish game studio Rovio Entertainment, will land in Vancouver as it expands into animated feature films, giving a boost to Sony Pictures Imageworks' local studio.
Rovio, in conjunction with the province, announced on Friday that it has enlisted Sony Pictures Imageworks' Vancouver operation as the lead animation house for an onscreen adaptation of the wildly popular game.
"It was very important for Rovio to find the perfect partner — in style, talent and location — to bring the Angry Birds movie to life," Rovio CEO Mikael Hed said.
"Sony Pictures Imageworks in Vancouver made that decision easy."
For Sony Pictures, making the production in Vancouver will mean "employing the most artists we ever have on any CG feature there in our 22-year history," said Randy Lake, executive vice-president and general manager of Digital Production Services for the company.
In a statement, Lake said the Vancouver studio is currently working on The Amazing Spider Man 2, and just completed visual effects work for Warner Bros. Edge of Tomorrow, projects that are "allowing us to expand our footprint and talent base in Vancouver, making it a very exciting time for Imageworks."
It is a busy time for B.C.'s animation sector, said Richard Brownsey, CEO of Creative BC. "We're seeing quite significant growth in animation activities in B.C., (and the Angry Birds film) is obviously a significant addition," Brownsey added.
The Rovio feature was a deal that B.C.'s Ministry of International Trade actively courted by helping establish Rovio Animation in Canada through the work of the Ministry of Jobs, Tourism and Skills Development, according to the news release.
Premier Christy Clark, in touting the announcement, said by showing "faith in Vancouver, (that) will lead to more opportunities and more jobs."
Tax incentives have also helped draw the CGI industry to Vancouver, with the province offering its DAVE (digital animation or visual effects) tax incentive, a 17.5-per-cent tax credit on labour expenses for digital productions.
In January, news trickled out of Hollywood that Sony Pictures Imageworks was bolstering its Vancouver studio by moving about three dozen staff members, mostly in software development, north from Los Angeles, according to reports from the trade magazine Variety.
As a game, Angry Birds has been downloaded a reported one billion times, and has already been turned into a television property with Angry Birds Toons, which is available to watch through its game apps and will be distributed via cartoon networks including Teletoon.
The film will follow a script from Simpsons regular Jon Vitti and has a high-powered production roster.
Producer John Cohen's credits include Despicable Me and Hop.
David Maisel, who is co-executive producer with Rovio's Hed, has worked on Thor, Iron Man and Incredible Hulk projects in the Marvel Studios franchise.

AS-302U - 3 kW CW / 5 kW PEP Coaxial Lightning Arrestor, SO-239 connectors, 1 to 500 MHz. Needs ground connection. See our SB-300-SB stacking bracket.
AS-302 sweep up to almost 900 MHz. This unit was specially hand tuned. We support specifications up to 500 MHz.
These devices are used for protection of Radio Equipment attached to antennas. They will protect from sand, rain, snow static buildup on antennas and feed lines which can damage sensitive radio equipment. They also will protect against damage from nearby and overhead lightning strikes. And can mitigate damage to radios or large damage to other equipment from occurring inside buildings, enclosures, and homes.
Based on the design by Industrial Communications Engineers (ICE) 300 Series coaxial arrestors, these arrestors have been improved in performance, packaging, and mounting hardware. These arrestors are DC blocked and include static and DC discharge capability just like the famous ICE arrestors. They also include 1200V rated Gas Discharge Tubes (GDT) which can be replaced with simple tools. Due to the static bleed inductor inside the arrestors not only does it help to keep the tube from firing extending the life of the GDT, but by virtue of bleeding off static that is charging the coaxial cable it eliminates cable discharge noise from the sensitive receiver which can lower the noise level heard.
The enclosures are machined aluminum small blocks which have convenient removable bracket to screw the device to a plate. We have also developed a mounting bracket system which can be purchased as an accessory to mount directly to ground rods, or plates inside enclosures, or a wall plate located at a coaxial cable entrance.
- Easy Installation, due to the flange with holes to allow screwing it to a plate, the #8x32 stainless screw mount included, and the optional AS-300-SB Stacking bracket system
- Ratings: 3 kW, 5 kW, and other values available depending on GDT used

Not sure if anyone's made a similar request, but I'm looking for some help in tracking down a copy of Everybody Knows This is Norway. I've tried the internets, Soulseek, Amazon, etc., and haven't made any headway at all. I think it's the only Neil-tribute LP I haven't yet found (once a couple of CDs arrive in the mail shortly, I'll be up to 15). I'd like to obtain an actual copy on CD or vinyl, but would happily settle for a CD-R.

WASHINGTON — A Federal Reserve official who dissented from this week's policy decision said Friday that the Fed should have said it planned to keep a key interest rate at a record low until unemployment falls below 5.5 percent.
The Fed's policy statement no longer cites a specific unemployment rate that might lead it eventually to raise short-term rates. The Fed instead says it will monitor a range of information before approving any rate increase.
Narayana Kocherlakota, president of the Fed's Minneapolis bank, said this shift, which the Fed approved 8-1, will hurt the economy.
"The new guidance fosters policy uncertainty and thereby suppresses economic activity," Kocherlakota said in a statement explaining his dissent.
Kocherlakota said that lowering the threshold for considering a rate hike from 6.5 percent unemployment to 5.5 percent would have enhanced the Fed's commitment to low rates until inflation nears its 2 percent target. Inflation is now running around 1 percent, and the unemployment rate is 6.7 percent.
Kocherlakota said a better approach would have been a statement saying the Fed intends to keep rates at record lows until unemployment has fallen below 5.5 percent — as long as expected inflation was below 2.25 percent and any "possible risks to financial stability remain well-contained."
On Wednesday, the Fed held its first policy meeting under its new chair, Janet Yellen. Afterward, it said it would weigh a range of economic measures in deciding when to begin raising its key target for short-term rates. The Fed has held its benchmark rate at a record low near zero since December 2008.
At a news conference afterward, Yellen unsettled financial markets in answering a question about what the Fed meant in saying short-term rates could remain low for a "considerable time" after it stops buying bonds to keep long-term rates low.
Yellen replied that that phrase could mean "something on the order of around six months." That is a shorter time than some investors had anticipated for a possible rate hike. Her comment appeared to conflict with her other remarks at the news conference that the Fed's decision on when to raise rates would depend on economic conditions.
The Fed is expected to keep trimming its monthly bond purchases by $10 billion at each meeting before ending them late this year. Six months from that point could put the first rate hike in the first half of 2015. Many economists still think the Fed won't start raising rates until the second half of 2015.

LISTEN! Taylor Swift Is All Grown Up In Her New Single 'Back To December' — She Stops Blaming The Guy & Takes Responsibility!
Taylor Swift has done it again. With the release of 'Back To December' off her much anticipated third album, 'Speak Now' she's showing a side of her that goes beyond crushing and baking cookies!
We've been super excited to get our hands on Taylor Swift's new single "Back To December" and now that we've had it playing on repeat we gotta admit she's done a fantastic job showing her new found maturity through her music.
In the past we've listened to 20-year-old Taylor croon about crushing, boyfriends and best friends. Taylor's signature songs are about guys who have wronged her in the past and broken her heart. With "Back To December" Tay took a totally different turn and caught everyone of guard by singing about her own faults! She is singing an apology to a boy ::cough::Taylor Lautner::cough who she took for granted and mistreated.
Her regret is sincerely and sweetly sung in a way that raises goosebumps, especially during the chorus:
So this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night,
And I go back to December all the time.
Turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you,
Wishing that I realized what I had when you were mine.
I'd go back to December, turn around and make it all right.
I go back to December all the time.
What a heartbreaker! We're glad to see Taylor has tapped into a deeper side of herself, but we gotta wonder what Taylor Lautner thinks of this belated apology…could Team Taylor be back on in 2011?
Let us know what you think! Sound off below!
