Poor Clock Management and Another 3rd Period Failure
Al Cimaglia | Feb 07, 2011 | Comments 20
I hate to beat a dead horse but it's still a sore point.
This season, only the Atlanta Thrashers (64) and the Ottawa Senators (63) have had more goals scored against them in the third period than the Blackhawks (61). The Hawks have played one less games than the Senators and three fewer than the Thrashers.
In Vancouver the Hawks should have been content with picking up at least on point after going into the final frame deadlocked. With playoff hopes flickering from game to game, coming away with at least one precious point should have been the prime consideration inside of five minutes of regulation time.
If there is any team in the NHL which needs to understand clock management it's the Blackhawks. But the Hawks are still trying to sort things out.
Patrick Kane is asked to do too much at times, but at critical moments he doesn't practice "safe hockey". Kane and all other Blackhawks' need to know when it's time to not to take any chances.
Friday night, Kane raced up the ice and crossed the Vancouver blueline with 4:11 left in regulation and the score tied at three. Positioned in front of Kane were four Canucks, planted like a picket fence. Instead of practicing Hockey 101 and putting the puck into a corner, Kane tried to make an improbable pass to Bryan Bickell. The pass failed and the puck was launched out of the zone. The Sedins' did the rest and the result was at least one blown point and a heart breaking loss.
The Canucks were fortunate as they scored a fluky winning goal. But especially on the road, with little time remaining, playoff implications in the balance, because the opponents' best players were on the ice…..
Kane and every other Blackhawk should know better.
But this is still a group which tries to do too much at times and sometimes doesn't do enough. Against the very best teams there is little margin for error.
The defeat was a bitter one because the Hawks can't play much better. Against many opponents the Hawks would have won, but to beat the very best everything has to be precise.
Winning only 37% of the faceoffs versus the Canucks did not help the cause. Especially considering Dave Bolland was matched against the Sedins', as he won only five of 22 faceoffs for a dismal 23%. Outside of faceoff trouble Bolland played a strong game. But the Twins' don't need anything made easier for them.
Marty Turco was ok….Although no matter how well Turco performs he often allows a goal he should have saved. At this point, it doesn't seem likely Turco can play much better than against the Canucks. No matter what your opinion of Turco's performance, the play of Roberto Luongo was stronger.
Often the difference between a third or fourth liner and a top six forward is the ability to score goals. Tomas Kopecky doesn't have the "finish" of a goal scorer. He gets into prime scoring position but for a variety of reasons doesn't convert. Kopecky could have scored two or three goals. A true goal score would have potted at least one against Luongo.
The Hawks fourth line had a great first shift and another good one late in the game, but for the most part they were outplayed. That group had little offensive zone time. If the third pairing is playing at the same time as the fourth line… Watch out.
The Canucks won the special team battle as they potted two power play goals. The Hawks 5 on 3 power play attempts have been awful the last few years. That was the case again. The Hawks get caught playing out on the perimeter when they have a two man advantage and that won't work against Luongo. In general the Hawks shot the puck up on Bobby Lu….which made it easier of for him to control rebounds.
Give the Blackhawks credit, many clubs would have folded but they kept coming back.
The officiating was brutal and the Blackhawks could have deserved better in Vancouver.
The NHL is quick to point out they were the first major sport to embrace video replay. It has always seemed odd to me that every "no goal" call is not reviewable in Toronto. If the technology is there why not use it on the most important plays. If it extends the game time …..So what? The game is played in far less time than it was years ago.
Whenever a goal is taken off the board or a play surrounding a scoring sequence is in question it should be reviewed. Troy Brouwer's goalie interference should have been looked at in Toronto and so should the blown offside call on Christian Erhoff's score.
Concerning a goal……. What makes a questionable goal tender interference call or a wrongly whistled offside, any different from a high sticking review? Both involve a score change. If reviewing more plays increases the average time of every game by five minutes, it would be a good trade off. Maybe the end result would be more responsibility shown by officials on the ice.
A blown call could mean millions in lost revenue. In my view it is silly to limit the reviews to include only the following. …
*In the National Hockey League, goals may only be reviewed in the following situations:
- puck crossing the goal line completely
- puck in the net prior to end of period
- puck in the net prior to goal frame being dislodged
- puck being directed into the net by hand or foot
- puck in the net after deflecting directly off an official
- puck deflected into the goal by the high stick by an attacking player
*source Wikipedia.
Now it's on to Calgary where the Hawks need the best from Corey Crawford. The Flames are playing inspired hockey and will be a difficult challenge on home ice. Hopefully the tough loss in Vancouver will inspire the Hawks to have a top effort tonight.
Maybe at last a lesson has been learned and poor clock management will no longer be an issue.
Al's Shots
According to a Chris Kuc tweet….Yesterday, Brouwer was working with the No. 1 power play unit replacing Marian Hossa.
Hossa isn't doing much in the way of scoring goals. He isn't creating scoring chances either.
Maybe Hossa can do something he hasn't done much of all season…..Force the opposition to take penalties.
If the light bulb hasn't gone off in Hossa and Kane's head it should have by now.
Teams are successfully defending these two by keeping them on the perimeter.
Kane at times goes to the slot, because he has Jonathan Toews to feed him the puck.
Hossa lugs the puck….He needs to play more north and south. Even if Hossa doesn't score he could create a power play opportunity.
There probably isn't a stat for only the amount of offensive zone time compared to penalties drawn. If there was, Hossa would be near the bottom in that category.
Having a very good power play doesn't matter as much if power play opportunities aren't being generated.

Al, another astute perspective from you.
IMO there are two other key issues…
One, the Hawks put themselves where they are now by not winning the games they needed to win at the beginning of the year. Those five or six games are what separate them from the Red Wings and Predators.
Two, it really does appear Hossa, Kane and Toews are all playing through nagging injuries. If the team was deep enough–or if the Hawks had won the games they should have won early–these three *might* have time to *fully* recover. The effect on the Hawks can be compared to any team playing without its three top offensive players at less than 100%.
The rest of the team, what you see is what you have.
Making up ground the rest of the way is going to be very, very difficult.
Unfortunately…I think in the next few years we are going to be often mentioning Hossa and injuries.
I'm glad the braintrust went for the more durable version of Marty Havlat when they signed Hossa who seems to be the less durable version of something less than Marty Havlat… When you put some of the player personnel decisions of the last few years under the mircroscope you really wonder if the Hawks will be back playing for the Holy Grail sooner than later… [sighs]
I am soooo tired of the injury excuse for these guys, especially as it relates to Hossa and Kane. This has been a season long crutch (no pun intended)that we have had to listen to. When Kane has a goal and an assist on a given night, the word injury doesn't even enter the conversation, but as soon as he goes scoreless or has a minus game, it's back to the "oh, he must be fighting an injury" excuse again. Bottom line, Hossa, Kane, Keith, Seabrook and several other key players have just not brought a consistent effort this season. I'm not saying that guys don't get injured and that it doesn't play a factor – I'd be an idiot to say that – but I'm just not going to keep dredging up that excuse every single time these guys play poorly. My thought process now is how many of these guys had career years last year and are now playing closer to their real talent level or perhaps the league has just learned how to play them. A lot of these guys looked as if they thought they could just put it on cruise control for a few months and then turn it on when they wanted to and make the playoffs. Last year was a great year and one I'll never forget, but as I mentioned in a post to Al a few months back, if this team fails to make the playoffs, it's going to take a lot of lustre of last years accomplishment for me. I wasn't expecting them to win the Cup again, but I never for a second entertained the thought that they wouldn't make the playoffs.
Al, that is a distinct possibility…of course, we don't know *what* the nature of the ailments might be…you'll also remember you wrote in the beginning of the year that the Hawks don't have enough depth this season to cope if injuries become an issue…which, unfortunately, appears to be the case.
I remember on the Blackhawks forums there was a debate about the durability of Havlat vs Hossa. I laid out the (internet, valueless) bet that Havlat would play more games than Hossa for the duration of his Havlat's contract.
Al, your post made me remember that so I finally went to go see what the stats were. So far Havlat is up 125 to 93.
Another great article, Al. This team is maddening. When you look at the standings and see where the Hawks sit after 52 games it certainly is not reassuring. I continue to think Q outcoaches himself at critical times and tries to be too cute too often. This, interestingly, is essentially the point of your afticle when discussing some of the players, like Kane, in particular. I don't get the timeout, for example, for the 5-3. It's not like this is basketball where they are diagramming an inbounds play. I would think if the 5 on the ice don't know what to do on a 5-3 by now, 30 seconds isn't going to get them any closer to knowing. And, when you consider all of the variables, like having to win the draw, etc., a timeout in that instance seems wasted and just gives the defenders a chance to regroup and re-engergize. That's just one example, and maybe not the best, but Q seems prone to try to outcoach the other side instead of letting his charges do their thing. I would love to know your thoughts on Boynton and why he's found a spot in the lineup again when the Leddy/Hendry duo seemed to play well together for their extended stretch. Thanks.
Q. favors veterans for the most part….There is obviously something he doesn't like in Hendry's game.
Leddy is overmatched physically at times…Boynton might provide more security.
The timeout was also done to keep the same players on the ice for another minute or more…
They looked to make seam passes instead of attacking the net….Good teams defend the through the box passes very well.
Also this season Q.'s line juggling has to do with him not wanting to keep all of the 4th liners out there at the same time.
Q. and the caoching staff sees what I see as far as what Kane did in the last 4 mins….but he won't publicly criticize….If he "loses" Kane at this point….Q. should start booking his golf dates now.
But make no mistake….This team can't overcome fundamental mistakes against better teams.
Last year they could get away with a lot…
they should know by now they can't.
Agree on your last point Al – this team got away with many of the same mistakes last year.
And let's not forget this team is still young – Kane is what 22? He should know better but the special offensive talent that he is plus his age, he hasn't ever had to really worry about clock management until maybe now.
Clearly tonight's game is huge. The Hawks need to play 5 on 5 like they did in Van., have Crawford back to where he was and tighten up the special teams.
If they don't get those things tonight Calgary will beat them and then we can really start worrying.
That was a bad game. I cant think of anything intelligent to say about it other than bad. And maybe a few other choice words.
This all seems familiar, kind of like the Hawks are following a script. I wonder what the Detroit fans were saying this time last year?

Teenager agrees new contract running until 2016.
Ross Barkley
Everton have secured the services of teenage midfielder Ross Barkley on a new long term contract.
Barkley has agreed terms on a four-and-a-half year deal which keeps him at Goodison until the summer of 2016.
The highly-rated academy graduate has this year made the progression to Everton's first team, making his debut in the first game of the season against QPR.
He turned 18 two weeks ago, making him eligible to pen a lengthy deal to stay at Goodison.
Chairman Bill Kenwright said: "We are pleased but obviously not at all surprised that Ross has agreed his first long term contract with the Club.
"Ross has recently talked of his commitment to Everton and his growth under the very special guidance of David Moyes, his staff and indeed our senior players. That combination of expertise can only be of benefit to any young footballer."
Barkley was poised to breakthrough last season before a freak injury sustained with England Under-19s saw him suffer a horrific leg break.
That blow kept him out until the summer when he toured America with the first team.
Speaking in this month's Evertonian magazine, Barkley said: "I am still only very young and the manager knows what he's doing and what's best for me.
"He's had young players coming through before. That's what's great about Everton. The manager will always give young players the chance to play at the right time."
Stuart Pearce handed Barkley his first Under-21s call-up earlier this season, while most recently he captained - and scored for - Everton in their Youth Cup win over Crystal Palace this week.
Barkley has four starts and three substitute appearances this season.

The mixed results from a number of the Nov. 3 elections paralleled a number of mixed feelings amongst the American public. Conservatives hailed the GOP victories in New Jersey and Virginia's gubernatorial elections as a sign that Americans are fed up with the Obama administration. Liberals hailed the Democratic victory in New York's 23rd congressional district as a show of continued support of the Democratic Party and signs of a splintering GOP. It would seem that both sentiments are true.
For the Obama administration, it would seem that the honeymoon is over. His approval rating has dropped almost 20 percent since January's inauguration, and it is clear that his once-wild popularity is waning. This, however, is to be expected. Such a high level of popularity was highly unsustainable as the lofty campaign promises and rhetoric met with the plodding reality of Washington politics.
Many liberal Democrats (myself included), were hoping for sweeping reform in the areas of healthcare, the environment and the war in Iraq, and have been disappointed by the perceived lack of meaningful legislation in these areas. The gay community has largely withdrawn support as a result of similar disappointment in the area of gay rights. And of course, the GOP and other conservatives have not failed to harp on the so-called "far left" and "big government" policies of the Obama administration.
Despite this, Tuesday's election results were not quite the referendum that many GOP politicians were claiming. In response to Chris Christie's gubernatorial victory in Virginia, RNC Chairman Michael Steele stated, "Americans have grown sick and tired of big government and reckless spending, and this vote is a sound rejection of the far-left policies that are hurting our nation."
Network exit polls in New Jersey and Virginia suggest otherwise. According to Politico.com, 60 percent of voters in Virginia and 55 percent of New Jersey voters said their feelings towards the president did not affect their decision. Rather, it would seem that a number of state and local issues were the main concern of gubernatorial voters, as is often the case.
The Democratic victory in New York's 23rd congressional district, a first since the 19th century, did serve as a major indicator of national sentiment. The primary reason for this victory was a split in the conservative vote. Many "Tea Party" conservatives viewed the Republican nominee, Dierdre Scozzafava, as too moderate and instead chose to back Conservative Party nominee Doug Hoffman. Scozzafava chose to drop out of the race, leaving her votes uncounted and giving the victory to Democrat Bill Owens. Outgoing Virginia governor Tim Kaine stated that "[the] race turned out to be the worst possible outcome for Republicans…what occurred in New York has exposed a war within the Republican party that will not soon end."
Despite the cooling of Obama's popularity, it is clear that the GOP is not necessarily faring any better. The splintering of the party by the increasingly radical libertarian "Tea Party" voters could prove disastrous for the party in 2010's midterm elections.

In the last half-century, we've taken huge steps to ensure that all Americans get treated equally in the workplace. From the landmark civil rights legislation of the 1960s and onwards, fair hiring and pay regulations have allowed women and minorities to stand up for themselves and demand the equal treatment they deserve on the job.
The impact of that progress has been tremendous. An entire generation of Americans understands that they have a right to fair and honest treatment on the job - a far cry from the days when women could be openly denied "men's jobs."

Idol Chatter :: Top 11
After the mediocre-at-best competition that sent what's her name back to LA last week, I have to admit that, sans Mario, the prospect of watching another eleven weeks of "Idol" seemed torturous. Seeing Miss-ter Seacrest in a too-tight red t-shirt that read, "I (heart) Expensive T-Shirts, and looked as if it had been ripped from the racks of a junior miss department, I thought all I'd have to write about today were Paula's legal problems and how much we miss Mario.
Happily, I was wrong. For the first time this season, and probably much of last season, more contestants were good than bad. Maybe it was the theme, Billboard number one hits. Whatever the cause, let's forget about Mario, (gasp), for today at least, and engage in some serious Idol Chatter.
I feel as though I'd be remiss if I didn't at least mention that Paula was involved in a hit and run accident that she claims, despite photos, never happened. The seemingly heavily medicated ex-Laker Girl believes her car was being serviced on the day of the freeway fender-bender and that she was actually flying to Malaysia. She seemed to be flying last night, too, though she never even left the studio. Let's hope that, on her judgment day, the judge isn't flying or our little choreographer could end up doing some hard time. We'd miss her, like we missed the Bee Gees when they broke up.
Speaking of Andy Gibb, miracle man Anthony Fedorov bore a stylistic resemblance to the now-deceased pop-star as he flitted around the stage wowing 11-year old girls everywhere with his man-version of "I Knew You Were Waiting for Me." Randy and Paula liked it, a lot. Simon said it was "okay, but (Anthony's) attempt at being sexy didn't work. It would be like Randy Jackson going on "Baywatch"." Randy then challenged Simon to take his shirt off. I guess they wanted to determine who was sexier. Just ask lithium breath, she never kisses Randy the way she kisses Simon.
If Simon knew what was coming next, he might've taken off his shirt to show the farmer's daughter what he had to offer her. Little Carrie Underwood, whom I predicted would finish second to Mario the first time we saw her, looked smoking, do-me-really-hard hot last night and blew the doors off of "Alone." Daddy's little milk-maiden proved once and for all that she can do it all…and will. The judges loved it, though none quite as much as Simon. "Carrie, you're not just the girl to beat, you're the person to beat. I will make a prediction, not only will you win this show, you will sell more records than any other Idol." Unplug those milk machines Daddy Underwood, you might just be movie to Beverly Hills, "swimming pools, movie stars" and even Donnie Osmond, whose puzzling presence in the audience went unexplained.
But I'm sure he was glad to be there for Scott Savol's Gypsy Rose Lee moment. The man who should fire the stylist chose "Against All Odds" because it was something "(his) dad would be able to relate to." In an almost Fellini-like performance, the big daddy-hater tried to symbolically expose himself emotionally by removing his hat, then his glasses in an almost strip-tease-like manner, prompting Simon to quip, "Thank God it was only a minute song. We'd have had a full strip-tease after 3 minutes." Dressed in Rerun's clothes, rocking back and forth like a blind guy, the man who would kill daddy delivered a great vocal performance. Unfortunately, he belongs on "Extreme Makeover," not "American Idol."
Next up was rocker Bo Bice with the evening's dullest, most disappointingly adequate performance. Jim Croce was his hero so he chose "Time in a Bottle." Yawn. Keep that up Bo and your career will go down faster than a private plane with engine trouble. Everyone thought it was okay, but Simon's comment said it all. "The only downside is that your hairstyle now resembles Paula's." Ouch.
Personally, I think the biggest downside was that after Bo came Mario replacement (as if) Nikko Smith. Sporting a black fedora (hats-how original) and wearing a black overcoat (in L.A. in the spring), the 13th place finisher's rendition of "Incomplete" left Paula speechless, (perhaps it should become the show's anthem). Randy "got goose bumps" and Simon said "it was by far your best performance." I thought it was awfully atonal and basically sucked.
But daddy-loving Vonzell Solomon didn't suck at all. In fact, her "Best of My Love" brought Paula to her feet and even made pre-gastric bypass slough Randy boogey in his chair. Simon, of course, did nothing, but I think I saw him smile a little before he said "I think for the first time in this competition people are going to remember you. Very good." I concur, Cowell.
And I also believe in God after Constantine Maroulis started singing the Partridge Family number one hit "I Think I Love You." Just seeing the smarmy 30-year old, (that's right 30), bouncing around stage trying to rock the cheesy 1970s pre-pubescent chart-buster made me grateful to be alive during the video recording era. I can't wait to watch the faux-greasy haired, chick magnet wannabe do it again and again and again. As always, Simon nailed the surrealistic event when he said, "It was like ordering a guard dog for your home and getting a poodle in a leather jacket." And what a scraggly poodle it is.
Unfortunately, Constantine's debacle wasn't the evening's only dog. Risk-taking Nadia Turner clearly proved the downside to taking risks is when you flop, you flop in a big way. Sporting a mother of a mohawk, the uber-talented chanteuse weakly warbled Cyndi Lauper's "Time After Time." She looked great, but Simon was right when he said, "It was your weakest performance by a mile. Sorry." Me too.
But not nearly as sorry as little Mikalah Gordon will be tonight when her name is, keep your fingers crossed, called. "To keep me out of the bottom two this week, I chose Taylor Dayne's "Love Will Lead You Back" said the Barbra Streisand-Fran Drescher-inspired creation. Cowell quipped, "It was a complete and utter mess." That's putting it nicely. It was a John Stevens moment if I've ever seen one. Hopefully little Mikalah will be home in time to go prom-dress shopping this weekend. Speaking of off-the-rack, you need to get those bulky sweaters off of yours Mikalah, it'll help with the job search and certainly make prom night more interesting for some, hopefully hearing-impaired, young man.
And if your school needs a chaperone, Anwar Robinson proved beyond a shadow of a doubt last night that a room full of horny 17-year old girls would be safe with him. When he opened his mouth to begin Chaka Khan's "Ain't Nobody," the pearls came flying out and 15-year old church singing boys all over America finally felt like they weren't alone.
And Carrie Underwood wasn't alone at the top of the heap after Jessica Sierra's "Total Eclipse of the Heart." Randy called it "a brilliant performance." Simon said, "You and Carrie outsang every other person in this competition tonight. Good work." It was actually great work. Sierra proved once again that she can certainly sing. But, at the risk of sounding like the accidental motorist, Jessica needs to make the right song choices. This one rocked and so did she.
Hopefully, tonight's results show will eliminate one major annoyance. Can't wait to see her go.
Until next time, "Seacrest out," please.
p.s. Mario sends his warmest regards.

Texas Instruments has a broad selection of op amp products available in several different process technologies and include high precision, microPower, low voltage, high voltage, high speed, and rail-to-rail devices. In addition, TI has the industry's largest selection of low-power and low-voltage op amps, with features designed to satisfy most applications.

Texas Instruments TPS56X20 Synchronous Step-Down SWIFT™ Voltage Regulators are a synchronous DC-DC converter IC with a voltage scaling control to power up micro-processors (MCUs) requiring core voltage (VCORE) tune-ups. After the initial power-up, the output voltage can be programmed/scaled by VID codes sent over an I2C compatible bus. This step-down (buck) converter employs an adaptive on-time D-CAP2 mode control which provides a very fast transient response with no external components. Unlike traditional voltage/current-mode controls, the D-CAP2 supports seamless transition between PWM mode for higher load and Eco-mode™ for light load. Eco-mode maintains high efficiency in light-load.
Texas Instruments TPS92561 Single Stage Boost Controller is a boost controller for LED lighting applications utilizing high-voltage, low-current LEDs. A boost converter approach to lighting applications allows the creation of the smallest volume converter possible and enables high efficiencies beyond 90%. The device incorporates a current sense comparator with a fixed offset enabling a simple hysteretic control scheme free of the loop compensation issues typically associated with a boost converter. The integrated OVP and VCC regulator further simplify the design procedure and reduce external component count.
Texas Instruments OPA192 Rail-to-Rail Precision Operational Amplifier is a new generation of 36V, e-trim operational amplifiers. These devices offer outstanding dc precision and ac performance, including rail-to-rail input/output, low offset (±5μV, typ), low offset drift (±0.2μV/°C, typ), and 10MHz bandwidth. Unique features such as differential input-voltage range to the supply rail, high output current and high capacitive load drive of up to 1nF, and high slew rate make the OPA192 a robust, high-performance operational amplifier for high-voltage industrial applications.
Texas Instruments LMP92064 Precision Low-Side Digital Current Sensor & Voltage Monitor is a current sensor and monitor that includes a digital SPI interface. This analog front-end (AFE) includes a precision current sense amplifier to measure a load current across a shunt resistor and a buffered voltage channel to measure the voltage supply of the load. The current and voltage channels are sampled simultaneously by independent 125kSps 12-bit ADC converters, allowing for very accurate power calculations in unidirectional sensing applications. The LMP92064 includes an internal 2.048V reference for the ADCs, eliminating the need of an external reference and reducing component count and board space. A host can communicate with the LMP92064 using a four-wire SPI interface running at speeds of up to 20MHz. The fast SPI interface allows the user to take advantage of the higher bandwidth ADC to capture fast varying signals. The four-wire interface with dedicated unidirectional input and output lines also allows for an easy interface to digital isolators in applications where isolation is required.
Texas Instrument's BUF20800 18-Channel Gamma Voltage Generator is a programmable voltage reference generator designed for gamma correction in TFT-LCD panels. It provides 18 programmable outputs for gamma correction and two channels for VCOM adjustment, each with 10-bit resolution. This programmability replaces the traditional, time consuming process of changing resistor values to optimize the various gamma voltages and allows designers to determine the correct gamma voltages for a panel very quickly. Required changes can also be easily implemented without hardware changes. The BUF20800 uses TI's latest, small-geometry analog CMOS process, which makes it a very competitive choice for full production, not just evaluation. Programming of each output occurs through an industry standard, two-wire serial interface. Unlike existing programmable buffers, the BUF20800 offers a high-speed mode that allows clock speeds up to 3.4MHz.
Texas Instruments DRV411 Sensor Signal Conditioning IC is designed to condition InSb Hall elements for use in closed-loop current-sensor modules. The DRV411 provides precision excitation circuitry for the Hall-element effectively eliminating the offset and offset-drift of the Hall element. This device also provides a 250mA H-bridge for driving the sensor compensation coil as well a precision differential amplifier to generate the output signal. The 250mA drive capability of the H-bridge roughly doubles the current measurement range compared to conventional single-ended drive methods. The Hall sensor front-end circuit and the differential amplifier employ proprietary offset cancelling techniques. These techniques, along with a high-accuracy voltage reference, significantly improve the accuracy of the overall current-sensor module. The output voltage is pin-selectable to support a 2.5V output for use with a 5V power supply, as well as 1.65V for 3.3V sensors. For optimum heat dissipation, the DRV411 is available in thermally enhanced 4mm × 4mm QFN and TSSOP-20 with PowerPAD packages.
Texas Instruments TAS5548 and TAS5558 HD-compatible audio processors are 8-channel digital pulse width modulators (PWMs) with digital audio processing and sample rate converters that provide both advanced performance and a high level of system integration. TI TAS5548 and TAS5558 are designed to interface seamlessly with most digital audio decoders. The devices support DTS-HD specification for Blu-ray HTiB applications. The sample rate converters consist of two separate modules that handle 4 channels each. TAS5548 and TAS5558 can support two different input sampling rates. These TI devices can drive 8 channels of H-bridge power stages. They also provide a high-performance, differential output to drive an external, differential-input, analog headphone amplifier.
Texas Instruments OPA317 (1-channel), OPA2317 (2-channel), and OPA4317 (four-channel) precision operational amplifiers (op amps) are members of the Zero-Drift family of amplifiers that use a proprietary auto calibration technique to simultaneously provide low offset voltage (90µV max) and near-zero drift over time and temperature at only 35µA (max) of quiescent current. These TI op amps feature rail-to-rail input and output in addition to near flat 1/f noise, making this amplifier ideal for many applications, and much easier to design into a system. These TI devices are optimized for low-voltage operation as low as +1.8 V (±0.9 V) and up to +5.5 V (±2.75 V).
Texas Instruments DRV8839 1.8A Low Voltage Dual Half-Bridge Driver with Individual Control Interface provides a versatile power driver solution for cameras, consumer products, toys, and other low-voltage or battery-powered applications. This TI device has two independent ½-H-bridge drivers and can drive one DC motor or one winding of a stepper motor, as well as other devices like solenoids.

LOVE LOVE LOVE I tried this dress on myself the other day when trying to get ideas for my bridesmaids. I had looked at this dress online several times and would always come back to it. When I put it on, all the other customers and consultants kept telling me how amazing I looked in this dress...I am a plus size girl and knew if I felt comfortable in this dress all my girls would also feel comfortable...I actually want to try to come up with a reason to get this dress for myself as well. My girls will be wearing this dress in black and I can't wait to see how amazing they all look!! The price is AWESOME as well. Thank you DB for making my special day even more special with this amazing dress. September 23, 2012
Fantastic Dress I originally went shopping for my bridesmaids with another dress in mind, but I am so glad that my sister picked out this dress! It is so flattering on all of my girls, they looked absolutely fabulous on the wedding day! We chose it in the apple red, and it looked so elegant and timeless, exactly the look I was going for! To set my maid of honor apart I had her wear a pin to just add a pop to set her apart from the other girls! I would recommend these dresses to any bride!! August 26, 2012
Perfect fit I have this dress for my bridesmaids and it looks amazing on all forms. The belted ribbon in the middle is very flattering for larger girls and I love the look of the satin on the vibrant colors. The straps look nice and are forgiving for larger women as well and the sweetheart line makes the girls feel pretty with having some sexy appeal. August 24, 2012

Over the weekend we left the city for a few hours and headed to Daylesford for lunch and a wander. It had been quite a few years since our last visit and we once again enjoyed wandering through second hand stores and visiting the local farmer's market. It was raining on and off for most of the day. I couldn't resist taking the camera and snapping away at the beautiful autumnal landscapes. All of the beautiful colours and the contrast between the native and introduced trees was really interesting.

SPOKANE--The family of Kala Williams came together Friday to remember her. Williams' body was found in a wooded area off Highway 195 last weekend.
A small group of family and friends gathered in the neighborhood near 14th and Milton. They set up a cross near where Williams' body was found.
The 20 year old went missing last month. Her family started to worry that she wasn't ok.
When police found human remains in a wooded area off the highway, her parents say they feared it was Kala.
Now Williams' dad Jack says his job is remembering his beautiful, athletic daughter.
Police say it's an ongoing homicide investigation. Her family still doesn't know who to blame.
