The Swiss Made collection exudes an unparalleled aura of luxury, exclusivity and sophistication. It perfectly embodies the unique way in which Tendence fuses innovative, contemporary design with traditional watch making techniques to produce phenomenal watches.
Made up of a breath taking array of magnificent, Larger than Life timepieces, the Swiss Made collection embodies the unique way in which Tendence fuses innovative, contemporary design with traditional watch making techniques to produce phenomenal watches. Composed of both 3 Hand models with Swiss Ronda movements calibre 715 and Chronographs with Swiss Ronda movements calibre 5030. Each edition is constructed from a robust and weighty 50mm diameter full stainless steel (SS316L) case.
Quintessentially Tendence, each edition has recessed lugs, a two piece dial construction and
numbers, which are emphasized by the hardened domed glass. There is double case finishing on some of the models. Stylish 'Clous de Paris' detailing on the top ring and screw crown adds a further distinctive element to the collection and the
luxurious handcrafted soft touch leather strap
is the perfect finishing touch.
The Tendence Swiss Made collection is divided between sharp, cool, traditional monochrome color choices, which complement the clean cut design of the watch and convey a distinct minimalist appeal, and bolder more daring colors with prominent flashes of yellow, orange or red featured on the quadrants. A variety of metallic finishes ranging from classic steel to PV Black or IP Rose Gold, adds to the distinct identity of each model.
Striking the perfect balance between sultry and understated elegance, the Black Chronograph edition has a black sun ray dial and PV black finishing which provides a contrasting and dramatically dark back drop against the prominent luminous white hands of the watch. Notably, the detailing is always carefully selected to complement the overall aesthetic of the watch without distracting from the design itself.

Keep Quorn and Curry On
Quorn is the leading brand of mock meat mycoprotein in the United Kingdom. Quorn is produced as both a cooking ingredient and a range of ready meals. It is sold (largely in Europe, but also in other parts of the world) as a health food and an alternative to meat; after changing production methods to ensure that only free-range eggs were used, the Vegetarian Society gave the product a seal of approval.

Technical Papers and Presentations
Surface Plasmon Resonance
J. Crompton[1], S. Yushanov[1], L.T. Gritter[1], K.C. Koppenhoefer[1]
[1]AltaSim Technologies, Columbus, OH, USA
The resonance conditions for surface plasmons are influenced by the type and amount of material on a surface. Full insight into surface plasmon resonance requires quantum mechanics considerations. However, it can be also described in terms of classical electromagnetic theory by considering electromagnetic wave reflection, transmission, and absorption for the multi-layer medium. The two commonly ...
Nondestructive Testing of Composites Using Model Based Design
E. Nesvijski[1]
[1]ACOUSTICS@MBD CONSULTANTS, LLC, Westborough, MA, USA
There is a practical interest among composite materials manufacturers to high-speed accurate non-destructive evaluation (NDE) technology for voids inspection when these voids are natural components of such complex structures like resin insulated layer of double-sided copper-clad laminates. Model based design (MBD) of NDE system is one of principal solutions for voids inspection in such composites ...
Simulation of Acoustic Energy Harvesting Using Piezoelectric Plates in a Quarter-Wavelength Straight-Tube Resonator
B. Li[1], J.H. You[1]
[1]Southern Methodist University, Dallas, TX, USA
An acoustic energy harvesting mechanism at low frequency (~200 Hz) using lead zirconate titanate (PZT) piezoelectric cantilever plates placed inside a quarter-wavelength straight-tube resonator has been studied using COMSOL Multiphysics 4.3 and compared with experimental data. When the tube resonator is excited by an incident wave at its acoustic eigenfrequency, an amplified acoustic resonant ...
A COMSOL Model of Damage Evolution Due to High Energy Laser Irradiation of Partially Absorptive Materials
P. Joyce[1], J. Radice[1], A. Tresansky[1], J. Watkins[1]
[1]United States Naval Academy, Annapolis, MD, USA
In this paper we present a transient numerical model of the heat transfer and thermochemical damage evolution in an IR translucent material using COMSOL Multiphysics. The model is evaluated using literature supplied and experimentally determined material properties for carbon black laden PMMA (polymethyl-methacrylate). This variant of PMMA was chosen because it is homogeneous, isotropic, and the ...
Early Stage Melt Ejection in Laser Percussion Drilling
T. Eppes[1]
[1]University of Hartford, Hartford, CT, USA
Laser percussion drilling is widely used in the aerospace industry to produce cooling holes in jet engine components. This process is a thermal, contact-free process which involves firing a sequence of focused optical pulses onto a target material [1-4]. During each optical pulse, the central portion of the target area heats to a liquid then vapor state where the expanding gas produces a recoil ...
Numerical Simulation of Phonon Dispersion Relations for Phononic Crystals
G. Zhu[1], E.M. Dede[1]
[1]Toyota Research Institute of North America, Ann Arbor, MI, USA
In previous work, a two-dimensional (2D) model was carried out to simulate the phononic band structure of a phononic crystal with square lattice structure, but this model did not account for the out-of-plane phonon dispersions [1]. In fact, for 2D films used for coating materials, it is more interesting to understand their cross-plane properties. In this work, the phonon dispersion relation of 2D ...

Yeah, I know I'm grumpy and opinionated.
good one Hutch , i think that sign would werk great in my neck of the woods!!!!!!
works good here , the only problem is the hogs, if they move in on the corn the deer will quit coming, thats what happened to me last year , a big boar moved in on my bait , and he is very smart , only comes at about midnight or later, it is pretty spooky out there after the sun goes down, knowing he is out there. mountain lions have also been seen in the area. i would have never in my life thought of lions being in this area but they are, i've seen one, & several people have got them on thier trail cams. they find that there is easy pickings around those deer feeders . i sure would hate to end up as a pile of lion poop. we have 2 rivers , 1 is about 3 miles from town & the other about 25 miles you could do some early scouting and find a good place to hunt without baiting, but for the most part it is many miles of mesquete pastures & if you didn't use bait in those areas it is a good chance you wouldn't ever see a deer. have a good day & good shooting
2010 nemesis camo, 2011 nemesis carbon fiber,

Add Packages To Ubuntu Preinstalled Images
From OMAPpedia
Ubuntu delivers pre-installed images for OMAP3 and OMAP4, in particular on http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-netbook/ports/releases/.
These images are much faster to install (10 to 20 minutes) than standard "live" images (up to several hours). That's why these images for shipped by default. See this page and this page for details.
Here are instructions to add your own packages to the pre-installed images. They assume that sufficient space is available. At the moment, the pre-installed root partition has 200-300 MB of free space.
You need to run the below manipulations on an
armv7 board (like OMAP3 and OMAP4 ones) running a GNU/Linux distribution. That's because
we are going to
chroot to an
armv7 rootfs.
Making the pre-installed rootfs bigger
This can be needed if you have a significant number of packages to add. Currently, Ubuntu's pre-installed images just have between 200 and 300 MB of free space.
Here is a script that you can use to make the rootfs part of these images bigger.
#!/bin/sh # Grows a disk image by the specified number of megabytes # # Assumptions: an image with 2 partitions, the 2nd one # in ext3 format. # # Example: grow-disk-image infile.img outfile.img 512 INPUT=$1 OUTPUT=$2 TMP=${OUTPUT}.tmp SIZE=$3 DD=/bin/dd CAT=/bin/cat RM=/bin/rm SUDO=/usr/bin/sudo LOSETUP=/sbin/losetup RESIZE2FS=/sbin/resize2fs FSCKEXT3=/sbin/fsck.ext3 FDISK=/sbin/fdisk TAIL=/usr/bin/tail AWK=/usr/bin/awk # Copying the initial image + SIZE zeros at the end echo "Copying $INPUT to $OUTPUT and adding zeros at the end..." $DD if=/dev/zero of=$TMP bs=1M count=$SIZE $CAT $INPUT $TMP > $OUTPUT $RM -f $TMP # Modify the partition table - Delete the 2nd partition # and create it again with all available space echo "Going to need your password to run a few commands with sudo..." # Before this, find the first available loop device LOOP=`$SUDO $LOSETUP -f` $SUDO $LOSETUP $LOOP $OUTPUT $CAT <<END |$SUDO $FDISK $LOOP d 2 n p 2 w END # Free the loop device $SUDO $LOSETUP -d $LOOP # Now, access the second partition on the card # First, compute the offset corresponding to the 2nd partition start=`$FDISK -lu $OUTPUT | $TAIL -1 | $AWK '{print $2}'` # Running this again. Another loop device can have been used in the meantime LOOP=`$SUDO $LOSETUP -f` $SUDO $LOSETUP -o $(($start * 512)) $LOOP $OUTPUT2fsck -f /dev/loop0 # Resize at last! $SUDO $FSCKEXT3 -f $LOOP $SUDO $RESIZE2FS $LOOP # Just to be sure, fsck the partition again $SUDO $FSCKEXT3 -f $LOOP # Cleanup $SUDO $LOSETUP -d $LOOP echo "Resizing complete"
Mounting the pre-installed rootfs
fdisk -lu maverick-preinstalled-netbook-armel+omap4.img and read the starting block for the rootfs partition:
You must set cylinders. You can do this from the extra functions menu.
Disk maverick-preinstalled-netbook-armel+omap4.img: 0 MB, 0 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 0 cylinders, total 0 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x00000000 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System maverick-preinstalled-netbook-armel+omap4.img1 * 63 144584 72261 c W95 FAT32 (LBA) maverick-preinstalled-netbook-armel+omap4.img2 144585 4401809 2128612+ 83 Linux
Now, mount this partition:
mkdir -p /mnt/rootfs mount -o loop,offset=$((144585*512)) ubuntu.img /mnt/rootfs
Modifying the pre-installed partition
Before running
chroot, replicate the basic filesystems that Ubuntu mounts:
for f in /proc /sys /dev /dev/pts /dev/shm /var/run /var/lock do sudo mount -o bind $f /mnt/rootfs/$f done
Without the above, some commands may not work properly, being unable to find data in
/proc and
/sys in particular.
If you are behind a proxy, copy your files defining your proxy settings (typically
/etc/environment and
/etc/apt/apt.conf) under the same path
Also copy your name resolution settings to the rootfs:
sudo cp /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/rootfs/etc/resolv.conf
Modify the rootfs
sudo chroot /mnt/rootfs/
If you are using a special package source, you can add it to
Now, update your package list and install extra packages. For example:
apt-get update apt-get install openssh-server
Once you are done, exit the chroot:
sudo rm /mnt/rootfs/etc/resolv.conf
You may also undo your proxy setting changes (typically
Then, unmount the filesystems replicated in the chroot:
for f in /var/lock /var/run /dev/shm /dev/pts /dev /sys /proc do sudo umount /mnt/rootfs/$f done
You are done!

How I wish you did this about a week ago, I've been going all over your site getting most of these recipes and now here they are in one place.
I've already made the cocoa molasses toffees, and the oreo truffles. I am working on the Orange Truffles and the peppermint patties right now.
I plan on making up little gift tins for all my friends by the end of the weekend. I see a couple of things here that I missed and would be great to add to the list of things I'm including. Thanks :D
beautiful, full collection of Christmas finery. how can we ever thank you enough--great list.
I made the oreo truffles for a holiday party this weekend and they were eaten up! I made half with regular oreos and half with mint oreos. If I used the mint oreos again, I would scrape out some of the filling or cut down the cream cheese though because they are double stuffed and were alot harder to roll into the balls.
Great ideas and pretty photos! I went with toffee this year:
I wish I had thought to make fruit jellies--there's always next year, I guess!

awesome, all the mor eiders for my soon 2 be 6 yr old's art party.
Wow, so many great ideas! Too bad I didn't know about these sooner, I recycled about a million paint chips earlier this year (though knowing me, we've got a million more somewhere around here).
I recently made something for a friend's new baby that is similar to the butterfly picture. I used a teddy bear hole punch and used colours from the Farrow and Ball paint chip card, as this included the exact colour in which they had painted their nursery. Such a cheap and easy way of producing art work.
Here's another one - paint chip peacock -
Maybe I'm the only one here but I just feel weird walking up taking tons of paint chips at the store. I periodically see ladies do it and the paint guys give them the nastiest looks.
I made one paint chip project too! :-D The video is in portuguese but is easy to understand the process. Check here: http://www.dcoracao.com/2011/09/sindrome-da-parede-vazia.html
Glad you saw my Pinterest board. I like to provide a library of images by themes for people to get inspired and create!
Someone please explain to me. Are the people making these paint chip projects just walking out of the store with gobs and gobs of paint chips simply because they are free?
Off to check them all out..
nice but "free" only works because everyone is supposed to take one or two. not 20 or 30. I can understand why employees at the store give them dirty looks. I already felt guilty when I took two of several colors (for my apartment, not a DIY project)
how about you use colored paper instead? (or recycled paper, even better)
Of course I have paint chips as heart;
It seems to me that most of the recent paint chip craft projects have been met with negative feedback. I've done one such project and hit up 3 different stores for a total of about 30 paint chips. However, I don't think I'd do that again because it just seems dishonest. Some of the projects above look like you could use some paint chips that you took for a legitimate, "I want to paint something," purpose. Those I think are great!
The employees give people who scoop up paint chips for projects that won't result in paint sales for a very simple reason: they're thieves.
How anyone thinks this is OK is beyond me, and I wish the AT blogs would stop supporting this notion.
Agreed, mdorothy.
If you tried walking out of your place of work with a bag full of post-its and supplies for a project or went to the grocery demanding all of the free samples they were giving away that day to make dinner, you'd be reprimanded. Free doesn't mean all for you.
This is a great one from Mark Montano's Big Ass Book of Home Decor -- especially ideal for those with paint chips left over from past projects, so naysayers can rest assured :)
What they are doing is NOT stealing. If it were stealing the employees wouldn't glare at them, they would call the police. The chips are there to be given away, so, unless the store posts a notice placing a limit on the number of paint chips taken, there is no legal difference between taking one and taking them all.
Taking free samples at the grocery store is the same. Unless the person handing them out says you must stop, you can eat 'til you're ready to burst. Some people may not feel comfortable doing this, but there is no legal prohibition against it.
Taking supplies from your employer is not the same. In most cases you will have been given either a written or verbal instruction that supplies are to be used for work related purposes only.
Now, back to the subject at hand, there are some cute projects up there. I may have to try a couple. I'll probably take all of the chips from one store and see how many glares I get.
nrKist thanks for that. people get so uptight sometimes. chill people chill.
anyway i love the butterfly one and it doesn't look like it'd take up that many paint chips people!
nrKist - just because ya can doesn't mean ya should.
Omiggosh, paint chip police! These things are complimentary and meant to be taken home, people. Whoever said you're only "supposed to" take one or two paint chips is off their rocker. I have taken home fifteen, twenty, or more - simply because I had no idea what color I wanted to paint my rooms. I needed that many to decide. I re-used some of them (I put them in the little label holder on all my storage boxes). Get over yourselves!
Some of these are really cute ideas, some are... eh.
The free/steal debate aside I'm gobsmacked by the really inventive use of what, for most people, is a throwaway. I'll definitely be experimenting with this myself. Heaven knows that after trying for years to come up with the perfect paint colors I have enough of these on hand (and now they're all in my color scheme). Though must say I really love the egg one so may have to purloin a few in colors I'd never anticipated using for wallpaint... be prepared paint chip police cuz I'll be in the aisle of my local Lowe's and may take up to half a dozen paint chips! Ooooh, it's Bonnie & Clyde in the paint chip aisle...
Love the Easter eggs! Perfect use of the white divider between colors.
Regarding the paint chips themselves, I worked at a hardware store about 20 years ago. We did have to order (and pay for) new chips when we ran out, so they weren't exactly free for us. Maybe things have changed, I don't know, but hey, maybe just buy a gallon of paint from time to time to help 'em out. :)
I really like only # 9,10 and perhaps 15.
I do have tons of paint chips at home. I think it's silly to assume that a person is supposed to take only one or two, especially with all those subtle differences between colours. Often, I am not sure if I will paint a wall a gray or purple (an example only) - so I will take at least 4-5 chips from either category.
I keep all my paint chips for future reference so by now I have amassed quite a collection.
If we're on this site, the odds are we're into home decor and likely to have MANY paint chips hanging around. Every time I start a project, I pull out the stack of chips, and I know there are many that I'd NEVER pick - and instead of throwing them out as useless, they would be great for crafts for my kid. These ideas are great!
It's a way of reusing something you'd likely toss away to be recycled anyway.
I wouldn't support the gathering of them since they are there to assist people in picking colors for things - but there are many reasons why people would have these already in their homes and available for use.
AT isn't here to tell you HOW to get these materials, just what to DO with them. They also don't endorse going out and stealing buckets of paint so you can redo your room - but they don't have to specifically state that you have to go properly buy it either!
Though I would love to see an article on stealing paint, just for the hell of it.
Some people make things from old paint chip booklets (you know, a stack of paint chips bound together at one corner). That's okay.
It's even okay to make something from the paint chips you've saved up from real projects.
And it's not illegal to walk out of a store with all their paint chips, but it certainly isn't polite. And also, something people on here are always ranting about, it isn't very green.
Recycling paint chips that once served their original purpose and are no longer needed is a good thing. Stealing paint chips solely for the purpose of doing arts and crafts is just ridiculous. You really don't have any scraps of colored paper at your house? Or scraps of white paper and a little paint?
You can always buy a chip book if you feel better about it. The last one I bought at Benjamin Moore was $18.
I love butterflies and wanted to decorate my daughter's room with them and finally I found the website www.decowall.co.uk. They have so many different styles of butterflies so I purchased some. I really satisfied the result and def recommend the decowall products. If you like butterflies and would like to make the room more brighter, why don't you try these?
I cannot believe how offended people are here by the taking and using of paint chips. Chill out, people! If it really upset Home Depot, they would start charging for them. Besides, we all shop at hardware stores and make other purchases at them. It's really no different than accepting a grocery store food sample when you have no intention of buying the sampled item. My goodness, find something more important to freak out about please.
If anyone feels guilty about taking free paint chips, go to a smaller paint store and buy a fan book (where five or six colors in a row are on each strip and they are bound together with a grommet). You might get charged $10 or so but you will be able to sleep at night.
It's funny what makes people feel a sense of guilt. When I am shopping for paint I always feel bad when I pull out strips and then DON'T take them home because I imagine it's a pain to refile them in the right place in the racks.
I have a 2000+ sqft home, and all of the walls have been painted in the two years we've lived here--some twice. I have dozens of paint chips on hand from choosing colors, and we have spent hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars on paint.
I would not feel the least bit bad about grabbing a few extras from the display. They've made plenty of money off me. If the salespeople gave me rude looks for taking paint chips, I would definitely not return to buy paint from them!
Besides, better to use them for something than to throw them away. I really do wish I had seen this before I recycled a bunch of mine.
Employees don't refile the paint chips. Who but the most active paint chip police would do this? The employees throw them in the garbage, not even recycling them. As least us paint chip crafters are using them, then recycling them.
Most paint chips can't be recycled. You can put them in the recycle bin but that doesn't mean they're recyclable.
Not sure if anyone is looking at this post anymore, but I just saw this on another site I read a lot and it reminded me of everyone going off on here:
Basically, she contacted the big paint manufacturers and without a doubt, all of them (some in a more salespitchy, sell some paint kind of ways) seemed to be roughly on the same page- don't take more than you *need* and without the intent of using it to purchase paint. Behr was the most positive about everything, but while saying use them for crafts *if you picked chips to later use in purchasing paint*

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Rockford Fosgate Punch P500-4 by Buck Pomerantz My system has plenty of power. Who needs an amp? You might think you don't need an amp because you have a 400-watt system in your car, or because your new stereo puts out 50 watts a channel. But those are peak wattage ratings, which may boil down to 15 or 20 watts per channel, using the more realistic RMS rating. An amp sends your speakers the power they need to deliver your music with clarity and impact, whether you're using factory speakers or high-performance components. And low-frequency reproduction requires lots of power, so an amp is an absolute must if you're adding a sub to your system. Rockford Fosgate Punch amps Rockford Fosgate continues to develop progressive sound technologies. Their aim to produce a smaller amplifier, with all the power and clarity you expect from the Punch name. Dynamic Thermal Management The award-winning "Dynamic Thermal Management" 3-stage cooling system uses forced air to dissipate heat evenly across the amp and out through the heatsink. The internal components in these compact amps stay cooler, resulting in higher efficiency and lower distortion. You get more installation options, without sacrificing wattage or audio quality. MEHSA cooling process MEHSA is a Rockford Fosgate proprietary process that increases the heat transfer from the MOSFET devices to the heatsink. This allows the heat to escape more readily from the amplifier, so that the transistors stay cooler. P500-4 Punch performance The P500-4 4-channel amp dispenses 60 RMS watts per channel to your front and rear speakers, or you can switch to 2-channel mode to send 250 watts RMS each to a pair of subs. You can tailor the sound with variable high- and low-pass filters, and use the onboard EQ to compensate for your car's acoustics. An optional wired remote control lets you tweak the sound from the front seat for quick adjustments while you're on the road.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Controls Connections Features Cast Aluminum Heatsink: The cast aluminum heatsink dissipates heat generated by the amplifier's circuitry. The inherent advantage of casting provides a 30% improvement of cooling over conventional extrusion heatsink designs. Dynamic Thermal Management (DTM): DTM Evenly distributes excess heat across entire amplifier heatsink. MEHSA³ (Maximum Efficiency Heat Sink Application-Third Generation): MEHSA is a Rockford Fosgate proprietary process that increases the heat transfer from the MOSFET devices to the heatsink. The multi-layer insulated metal MEHSA substrate operates with minimal thermal resistance, spreading heat both downward and outward to quickly dissipate heat from each device across the heatsink. This allows greater power output, enhanced thermal stability, and maximum reliability. Trans-ANA (TRANSconductance Active Nodal Amplifier): Trans-ANA is a circuit that allows the audio signal to pass through the amplifier at low voltage. The signal is directly level-shifted to the fixed high voltage rails via a pair of drive transistors. Signal linearity is assured by an active node formed by the drive transistors at ultrasonic frequencies. The result is crystal clear sound quality. NOMAD (NOn-Multiplying Advanced Decision): NOMAD is an intelligent protection circuit that uses an analog computer to make real time decisions regarding temperature, voltage, current and impedance. The unit is protected without limiting sound output unless needed. TO-247 MOSFET: The Punch P500-4 utilizes ultra high performance MOSFET output devices, giving the amplifier more power handling capability as well as lower thermal impedance for more reliable operation, even under the harshest load conditions. DSM (Discrete Surface Mount): In the manufacturing process high speed robotics are used to place 1% tolerance parts and large board traces. DSM improves the efficiency of the circuit, decreases cross-talk from other discrete components and lowers operating temperature. Power and Protection LEDs: The LEDs are located on top of the amplifier. A blue Power LED illuminates when the amplifier is turned on. A red Thermal LED illuminates if the amplifier overheats. The yellow Protect LED illuminates if a short circuit or too low an impedance is detected at the speaker connections. When any of the protection circuits engage, the amp automatically shuts down until the problem is corrected. Controls Internal Crossover: The amplifier's internal crossovers have a 12 dB/octave slope. There are independent crossovers for the front and rear channels. Each is selectable for high-pass, all-pass (full range), or low-pass operation and is variable from 50Hz to 500Hz. Punch EQ: Punch EQ works along with the crossover switch. When the crossover is set to low-pass, the Punch EQ acts as a variable bass boost; 0-18 dB at 45 Hz. When the crossover is set to high-pass, the Punch EQ acts as variable treble boost, 0-12 dB at 12 kHz. When the crossover is set to all-pass, both the bass and treble boost circuits are active. Connections Power Connections: The power and ground terminals are nickel-plated captive c-clamp wire connectors and will accommodate up to 4-gauge wire. An external 80-amp fuse (not included) must be installed on the power wire. If a wiring kit is used which includes a fuse with a value other than 80-amps, the original should be replaced with an 80-amp fuse. The remote turn-on terminal will accept wire sizes of 12- to 24-gauge. A Phillips-head or slotted screwdriver (not supplied) is required to tighten/loosen the terminals. Differential Input: Differential input circuitry measures the voltage of both the positive (+) and negative (-) portions of the input signal, subtracting the voltage common to both conductors (noise); resulting in a cleaner signal. Reducing the noise on the input then improves the sound quality of the output. Speaker Connections: The 4-channel nickel-plated clamp wire connectors will accept 8-gauge to 18-gauge wire. A Phillips-head or slotted screwdriver (not supplied) is required to tighten/loosen the terminals. Remote Punch EQ (PEQ) Connection: An RJ-45 jack is provided for connecting an optional remote PEQ control (575ROCKPEQ, sold separately). If you use the remote PEQ, the Punch EQ control for the rear channels on the amp is disabled, and replaced by the remote. Note: Previous model Punch Bass and Para-Punch remotes will not work with this amp.

Very nice amp, 4channel good clean rims power excellently built 2 ohm stable. Excellent connections. And good looking case. Pros: 2ohm stable dual gains, dual crossover, hp or lp for front and rear, dual internal eq. Very nice case could easily be in a displayed location. Cons: It's a shame this good looking amp will be hidden by a seat. Was this review helpful?

Had this and four speakers installed in an easy 3 hours. Haven't had to adjust gain on device and it still rocks out really loud. Pros: Super easy to install. Gives more than enough power for higher end speakers. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Yay for Rockford Fosgate Written By Dan C., Cbus, Ohio on Tuesday, May 13, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I purchased this unit for my 1986 Toyota pickup because the standard build is two 4" speakers in the front dash. So I have expanded that to two additional 61/2 and soon to expand to include two 6x9s as well. even with just a standard set up of 4 speakers my Kenwood head unit couldn't push my speakers to full potential 60 watts per speaker even my 4" speakers RMS at 56 watts so at 24 my head unit would dump and stutter so thank goodness for this amp priced right (on sale) and very compact considering 4 channel it is a very well built and actually from the birth paper work it performed even the reported highs pushing 90 watts to each speaker which is great. I really do love this amp. only con is it really seems that the roll of is not true to the numbers I set mine to over 250 and when a heavy bass comes on seems to still hit the 150 hz frequency pretty hard so yeah I suppose if you had performance speakers that have built in crossovers you would be set. Pros: good looking, compact, out performs expectations,made me realize I need new speaker boxes because mine are too echoy nor are they airtight lol Cons: crossover doesn't seem quite true. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Fine product met expectations. Written By Scout Man, Texas on Friday, June 21, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Installed in a 07 mega cab. This 4 channel amp was bought to liven up the sound of my 4 Prime R165-S components. The Prime components sounded clear and loud without the amp but lacked mid range in a bad way. This amp really helped these speakers come to life. I was planning on going to a higher grade speaker after installing the amp but the sound is tuned in good enough for my liking as is. You won't be diss appointed. Pros: Size, sleek look matched my mono amp, price cut! Cons: I have yet to find any Was this review helpful?

Senior design project wins first within CIS
May 25, 2012
Dearborn/May 25, 2012 - In an increasingly digital world, quickly authenticating information from your identification to your medical background, from car settings to nutritional information can streamline processes and even save lives.
Thats why a group of University of Michigan-Dearborn computer and information science (CIS) students has developed a new system for authentication on mobile devices.
The students created the system for Connected Vehicle Proving Center and TARDEC as part of the College of Engineering and Computer Sciences senior design competition. The team Sidharth Vallabhaneni, Sreekanth Gogineni, Joe Hodges and Liviu Maghear earned first place within CIS and tied for first overall.
The goal of our client was to use Apple devices to authenticate personnel and grant access to soldiers while moving in and out of military buildings, said Sidharth Vallabhaneni, a member of the four-person team. They also wanted the ability to track and log these transactions.
The group planned to utilize radio frequency identification/near field communication (RFID/NFC) technology; however, Apple does not currently support this technology. Brainstorming ideas, they decided to work with an external reader to allow for Apple compatibility.
They took a difficult task using NFC/RFID on Apple products and created a solid work around, as they will have to do in their professional lives after graduation, said Bruce Maxim, who served as faculty adviser along with Kiumi Akingbehin.
The group then extended the project beyond the clients initial request. The system is platform independent and built to authenticate nearly anything. The front-end user interface is linked to a backend database that can store any information to be authenticated.
For example, we can store patient medical information in the backend. The front end would consist of an ID card being read and matched to the correct patient information in the backend database, Vallabhaneni said.
Once matched and authenticated, that patients information could be shown on an iPhone, Blackberry, PC, Mac or anything with a web browser.
Other applications include GPS tracking, vehicle security and customized setting, payment processing, and equipment and food tracking.
Currently, there is no existing software available in the market that provides this type of service and functionality, Gogineni said.
The students worked on the project for two semesters before presenting it to their clients and to the judging panel at the senior design competition. Lessons learned went far beyond textbook-teaching.
Learning how to communicate with each other and work with a client was a good experience, Maghear said. We were learning how to ask for products and explain things to clients, telling them what was and wasnt possible.
Maxim says the experience Maghear mentions is what makes the competition a valuable learning tool as students finish their time at UM-Dearborn.
The senior design competition reinforces what we teach in our programs, he said. Team work, client communication, managing the project to complete it on time with available resources, the ability to write clearly and present their work these are all important in the professional world.
Founded in 1959 with a gift of just over 200 acres of land and $6.5 million from the Ford Motor Company, University of Michigan-Dearborn is a metropolitan university serving southeastern Michigan, committed to excellence rooted in strong academics, innovative research and programming and civic engagement. The University has nearly 8,900 students pursuing more than 100 bachelor's, masters, doctoral and professional degrees in liberal arts and sciences, engineering, business and education. A top-ranked university with a faculty devoted to teaching, and students committed to achievement, UM-Dearborn has been shaped by its history of partnering with local leaders and communities, and is committed to finding solutions for the challenges that face the region.

Poster presented at the LCDP Luminary Class, June 2012. Like many other academic libraries, East Asian libraries face tough financial decisions on how they allocate their resources in this time of financial restraints, while fulfilling the library's ultimate mission of supporting teaching and researching. This study was conducted in light of escalating cost of electronic resources in East Asian languages. By analyzing 5-year (2007–2011) statistical data obtained from 32 East Asian libraries in North America, this study explores what portion of a library's total materials expenditures are dedicated to eresources and how fast its e-resources expenditures have been growing over the past five years.

By the time we first discussed putting Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh on the cover of Business Jet Traveler, I had already been a steady customer of the company for five years and knew all about its astonishing service standards.
AIN Blogs
Someone intimated I was old this week. Well, actually what he said was, "Dude, you're so a fossil."
"I have a Facebook page," I blurted out in my defense.
"Lame," was the response.
We're at it again, hyping the upcoming pilot and mechanic shortage. (How come we never talk about flight attendant shortages?) Maintenance shops are having a hard time finding mechanics, and the new 1,500-hour rule for airline pilots means that airlines that are now losing their 65-year-old pilots to retirement are sucking instructors out of flight schools.
Oh, woe is us! What are we going to do?
Judging by the positive press from AOPA and EAA, one would think the pilot's bill of rights is going to do wonders for pilots fighting FAA enforcement actions, especially the unfair kinds of action that many of us have criticized.
For several years, you've been able to book charter flights on the Internet and now, as we've reported in Business Jet Traveler, there's a retail store in London–The Jet Business–where you can actually walk in off the street and buy an airplane.
I think I can see where this trend is headed.
When US Airways Flight 1549 splashed down in the Hudson River in January 2009, it made Capt. Sully Sullenberger an instant folk hero and made a flock of Canada geese the miscreants.
In an industry still digging its way out of a disastrous recession, even bad news can be good news and the latest bad news from a poll taken by Frequent Business Traveler magazine (www.frequentbusinesstraveler.com) amounts to good news for business and private aviation.
While any direct comparison of the fundamentally incongruent market forecasts published by the Western world's four civil airframe manufacturers might seem like an exercise in futility, a little extrapolation can reveal some basic differences in opinion, methodology and, maybe most significantly, equipment offerings.
In his recent Business Jet Traveler interview with Elite Aviation owner Chris Holifield, journalist Matt Thurber notes that "you don't see a lot of women-owned aviation businesses." Bizav, he says, is "a boys' club."
It sure is, and so is the rest of the aviation world.
Are U.S. aviation safety ratings of foreign countries meaningless?

Faith's Kitchen Renovation: The Inspiration
Renovation Diary: Faith's Budget Luxe Kitchen
Yesterday I showed you the first stages of my home renovation and kitchen plans. Today I am going to take a step back and show you some of the inspiration I had filed away for my someday-future-kitchen, the pictures and thoughts that led us to the kitchen we built. Why have an open kitchen? What were the non-negotiables in the design? Read on for the scoop!
A kitchen that has long been a favorite. The details are more traditional than I prefer, but I love the drawers, the countertops, and above all, the light.
The Requirements
Besides the basics (functioning dishwasher! a stove with good burners!), here are four things that I knew I wanted in my kitchen.
- No upper cabinets. I am super short (5-foot-nothing) and upper cabinets have always been a strain for me. I wanted a more open feeling to the kitchen, and I was willing to sacrifice upper cabinet storage completely for the ease of lower drawers.
- Lots of windows. This is partly for aesthetic reasons, and also for practicality: I take a lot of photos of food, and good light was a priority.
- As much countertop space as possible! After living with rental kitchens and little corners of countertop, this was the huge luxury I was after: room to spread out! I wanted plenty of open, easy-cleaning surfaces.
- A pantry. Sacrificing upper cabinets meant finding somewhere else to stash food. I really like the idea of a pantry — one consolidated place to store food and small appliances. We were lucky enough to have space for a pantry, one that also did double-duty as a laundry room.
This kitchen is open to the dining space, but is still really beautiful. It doesn't feel too casual. I also really like the colors.
The Open Kitchen - A Hard Decision!
Now to the toughest decision about the kitchen — open to the dining room, or closed off and private? While the open kitchen has become very popular, it is still a controversial choice, and it's not actually one that I made lightly. We do a fair amount of "dressy" dinners (not out of social requirements, just for fun) and I do like to be able to shut a door between the dining room and the messy kitchen.
But after weighing the pros and cons, and looking at my daily habits of cooking, eating, shooting photos, and interacting with my husband and guests, we decided on an open space where I could cook while people stand around and talk, or where my husband could do dishes with plenty of space for people to stay and help. Everyone wants to hang out in the kitchen — why fight that? For everyday living, an open kitchen seemed to be the right decision, and we've already been so glad of this decision.
My biggest concern with the open kitchen was the loss of formality or "dressiness." I really didn't want our big dinners to feel less special, like they were being held in an eat-in kitchen. I want the dining experience to feel cozy and intimate — would that be lost in an open kitchen/dining space?
Inspiration in this came from two sources:
- The "Dressy" Kitchen - Michelle at Remodelista had not yet written her piece on The Formal Kitchen when I was designing mine, but if she had, I would have nodded all the way through. I decided to dress my kitchen up a bit, to make it as pretty as possible, to make it feel like part of the house's style instead of a purely functional kitchen. I hoped that this would help the dining area feel more intimate and tied-in.
- The Sitka & Spruce Kitchen. One of my favorite Seattle restaurants, Sitka & Spruce, has a wonderful open kitchen with the communal dining room table actually running straight into the cooks' prep area. (See photo above.) I remember just being so inspired by this layout, by the coziness of the dining experience. Dining in a kitchen doesn't need to feel cold or informal; it can be a source of great warmth and comfort.
The Pictures!
Last but not least, I share some pictures above that I came back to again and again, with themes like minimalist, sleek cabinets popping up, as well as a certain shade of gray-blue, and white bright countertops. (See more of my inspiration here at Pinterest.)
I could talk on and on about kitchen inspiration, as it was so fun to dream and research just how this space could be. We feel very, very lucky to have been able to make it come to life.
Have you ever renovated a kitchen or built one from scratch? It can be hard and intimidating to even start — there are so many options! Where did you start? What were your non-negotiables, or your design inspirations?

Faith's Kitchen Renovation
11 Comments
I don't have a dining room or an eat-in kitchen or even an open kitchen but when I remodeled my shoebox of a kitchen I also chose to make it as pretty as possible since 1) its the first thing you see when you walk into my apartment;
2) the pass-through window makes it visible from the living/eating room;
3) with so few cabinets and so little counter space why not cram as much luxury in as possible? (e.g. if you need only 10 knobs than getting nice ones from Restoration Hardware isn't going to break the bank, same with a couple square feet of soapstone); and 4) I spend most of my conscious home time in that little bitty room so its nice to make it beautiful.
My non-negotiable was cabinets up to the ceiling. There used to be a gap and it just collected greasy dust and was very hard to clean.
You and I have the same taste. In fact, I used some of the same inspirational images that you did. We bought a 1970's era house with good bones, but the kitchen was dismal. One of my conditions of buying it was that the kitchen was getting redone asap! The original kitchen had just one window, horrible original appliances, pink tile floors, and wood grained cabinets. And worse, no exhaust meant that the cabinets were sticky from 30+ years of cooking. Here were my must haves:
-No upper cabinets
-Windows, especially overlooking our beautiful 6 acres
-Drawers, no doors
-Lots of work surface
-Big, single bowl sink
Because we didn't have that many cabinets, we were able to splurge on inset fronts, and because the square footage is relatively small, we were also able to afford large slate tiles for our floor.
I will say that our very best decision was to get a great contractor. We already knew him from a project on our previous house. He was in demand so we had to wait a year before he could start, but that worked in our favor because we had that long to really plan out what we wanted. He is so good, it only took 6 weeks from beginning to finish!
I don't see how to attach photos to responses, so I will email them to you.
I'm following along - this is fascinating.
We designed our kitchen in the era before Pinterest, so I checked out every library book I could and wrote copious notes and made lists of what I wanted to store. Light is very important to me, as we live in a city and at the time, there were trees blocking a lot of light. So we opted for light cabinets and backsplash - our black stove is wonderful and we already owned it, so we bought a black fridge to match (ran out of budget for a stainless steel one we wanted! someday!). I am a serious cook, and the kitchen functions wonderfully for me. I love my kitchen.
Love your pins; a couple are my favorites too.
Looking forward to your kitchen!
Love all the inspiration. I love the islands that double as workspace and a place to eat when it's just the two of you. Right now our kitchen is sort of a galley kitchen, and I make a lot of how-to cooking videos. Makes filming incredibly hard, and having an island would be awesome. Can't wait to see how this all unfolds - how fun!
I designed our kitchen myself 25 years ago, when we built our home and just completed a renovation last year. I choose an open kitchen plan (so glad I did) with a large (6'x4') island. We used the triangle plan for the work space (refrigerator, main sink and stove). I also make a baking area, 2 lazy susans and dish storage area, between the table and dishwasher. My only regret is my pantry is a large reach-in with 3 lower pullout trays, I wish it was a walk-in pantry, where I could store larger appliances. For the renovation, I used Pinterest to collect my ideas.
Michelle makes some valid points regarding the formal kitchen - it's certainly how we use ours.
Our renovation was very much my partner's project, so his requirements were: 2 dishwashers, eye-level oven and microwave, uninterrupted view through the large French doors. At his insistence, a steel joist was added at great expense to avoid a supporting column when we knocked down the dividing wall to the dining room. I was not fussed about it at the time, but he was absolutely right - the uninterrupted view is the best thing about cooking at the island.
I didn't have any non-negotiables, but I was very inspired by Hansen kitchens, in particular, these deep, floor-to-ceiling doorless cupboards:
This combination of matte grey stone and honey coloured wood is similar to what we chose:
Pinterest would have been useful.
It was interesting to compare this article, which seems like a real person reflecting on real experience, and the one by Michelle at Remodelista, which seems contrived around product plugs.
I enjoy Apartment Therapy because the posts feel authentic. Too often lifestyle blogs feature an over the top fetishism (Michelle and her marble backsplash) that make women sound obsessed with trivia and contain photos that look like stage sets. Marble countertops and hardwood floors photograph beautifully, but are totally impractical in a working kitchen.
I assume that anyone who puts in marble kitchen countertops uses their kitchen for anything but cooking.
I think marble countertops have a lot of advantages, but I wouldn't get them because I cook a lot and I clean my own house. I think so many of the kitchens and homes that are featured in lifestyle photos are owned by people with housekeepers. Daily housekeepers.
I disagree about hardwood floors in a kitchen. Mine don't require any more maintenance than tile or laminate (less than tile since grout always needs special scrubbing), and it's worth it to get the seamless look for the entire area.
I love your inspiration pics. I would love to build a new kitchen from scratch! We just bought our first house last year so renovating what we have will do for now :)

Sorry - I have never posted before - don't know if i'm doing this correctly.
I have purchased a "bone hunter" which I understand to be equal to a "cheetah."
It was factory set for 60 lb and i am trying to back it down. Made a great buy on craigslist, but bow is for an adult, and I am trying to make it work for a kid. I purchased a module pack to bring down the draw length, but can't get the draw weight lowered enough by just backing out the screws. I am guessing i'm down to 48 lb +/-, and probably need to get to 30 - 35 lbs. Any suggestions?

Prep Baseball: West Davidson gets payback against Salisbury
SALISBURY — A week that started with such promise for the Salisbury Hornets ended with a big thud Friday afternoon against West Davidson.
The visiting Green Dragons (6-2, 1-1) jumped on the Hornets early and often to roll to a 12-3 Central Carolina Conference win at Robertson Stadium. It was a complete turnabout from just three days earlier when the Hornets (3-6, 1-1) pounded West Davidson 10-2 in Tyro in their league opener.
In each instance, the outcome was really decided by quality pitching. Friday it was Green Dragon sophomore lefty Justin Freeman who kept the Hornets off stride with an effective mixture of off-speed pitches.
"Early on in the game, my changeup was really effective and I could get my curveball over for strikes when I needed to," Freeman said.
He improved to 3-0 and had Salisbury shut out for 42/3 innings before giving up his first runs of the season. But he was glad to get a little payback.
"That loss motivated the team a lot," Freeman said. "We worked really hard to get ready for them. Now we are ready to get things rocking in the conference."
Over in the home dugout, the Hornets were just looking for someone to step up and take charge, especially on the mound. Four Salisbury pitchers gave up a combined 10 walks with nine of those runners scoring. Three fielding errors and four wild pitches added to the misery as they fell behind 8-0 after two innings and could never recover.
Salisbury coach Scott Maddox said this game was definitely decided by pitching.
"We have two guys who feel like they can get people out anytime they take the mound. " he said, referring to Brian Bauk and Riley Myers. But Bauk is out with a sore back and Myers pitched the win over West on Tuesday.
"We just don't have another guy that has decided he wants to step up and do the job right now," Maddox said. "I thought we hit the ball fairly well tonight but we just dug ourselves too big of a hole."
West Davidson's running game got things started in the first off starter Parker McKeithan when Matt Berrier led off with a walk. Zach Queen stole a base and then advanced on a wild pitch leading to a quick 3-0 lead.
Salisbury's Ryan Jones came on to pitch the second and got two outs after a lead-off error. But Berrier singled, then three straight walks made it 6-0. Graham Shoaf's double to center then plated two more to make it 8-0 after two. Only three of the runs were earned.
"We were able to exploit the running game in the early going,"Dragon coach Jerry Walser stated. "I guess you could say it was a perfect storm for them today like it was a perfect storm for us last Tuesday."
Walser also had praise for his lefty starter Freeman who scattered six hits and fanned six batters.
"All in all Justin pitched very well," Walser said.
The Hornets were two outs from an early finish in the fifth, down 11-0. But Bauk walked then Chance Bowden singled hard to right and McKeithan reached on a fielder's choice.Jones forced in a run with a walk off a tiring Freeman then Jimmy Leone drove home two runs with a single up the middle to make it 11-3.
Queen came in to pitch the final two innings for West and preserve the win for Freeman.
Berrier led the winners with two hits and two RBI's. Queen and Shoaf also drove in a pair of runs. Salisbury was topped by Bowden with three hits while Bauk had two hits and three steals and Leone had two hits and his two key RBI's.
Salisbury returns to CCC action next week with two games against Central Davidson.
