INGLEWOOD, Calif. (Dec. 20, 2009) — Second-choice Blind Luck made her own luck Sunday in the $405,250 Hollywood Starlet, making an explosive move early in the stretch and drawing away under a hand ride by jockey Rafael Bejarano to win the Grade I event by a widening seven lengths.
The chestnut daughter of Pollard's Vision was well back much of the way while running along the rail, but easily moved into contention when moved outside on the far turn by Bejarano. The Starlet seemed wide open for a split second as the field turned for home, but Blind Luck quickly put the issue to rest with her exhilarating move.
She covered 1 1/16 miles Cushion Track in 1:41.96 and was full of run at the wire, continuing to draw farther and farther away from her six rivals after crossing the wire.
"Wow! I worked her the last four times and she's been unbelievable in the morning," Bejarano said. "She's been relaxing so well in her works and has been showing a big turn of foot. She did the same thing today. I think she's going to be a real good filly. I had so much horse I wanted to wait as long as I could. When I asked her a little she showed me a big turn of foot."
The victory was the fourth in six starts for the Kentucky-bred filly, who finished third — beaten less than one length — while making her previous start in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies in November.
Blind Luck, ridden by Bejarano for the first time with Tyler Baze recuperating from finger surgery, paid $5.60, $3.20 and $2.60. Miss Heather Lee returned $11.20 and $6.40, while the show payoff on Amen Hallelujah was $5.40. Favorite Beautician, the runner-up in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies, began to fade on the turn for home and finished last.
Blind Luck, owned by trainer Jerry Hollendorfer in partnership with Mark DeDomenico and John Carver, banked $243,150 to increase her earnings to $709,050. Purchased after breaking her maiden in her first career start for a claiming tag of $40,000 in June, she won her first start for her new owners on July 29 at Del Mar before finishing second to Mi Sueno in the Darley Debutante. She became a Grade I winner in the Oak Leaf at Santa Anita one start before the Breeders' Cup.
"That was exciting," Hollendorfer said. "I've never seen her move like that. We were hoping to run in all the Grade I races and I think this stamps her up pretty good as one of the contenders. It's a big advantage that Rafael likes to come and work our horses. He's worked this filly every time. Now he knows her very well. The more a rider knows a horse the more they are in sync. If she looks like she's doing well between races we might wait for the Las Virgenes. Our long range goal is the Kentucky Oaks."
The Starlet capped a meet with several highlights, beginning with dramatic Grade I victories by Fluke and Ventura in the Citation Handicap and The Matriarch during the 18th Turf Festival on Thanksgiving Weekend.
Both were saddled by Humberto Ascanio, the assistant of 35 years to Hall of Fame trainer Bobby Frankel, who died of lymphoma less than two weeks earlier. Ascanio finished the meeting with three graded wins, also sending out Frankel's 2008 Hollywood Gold Cup champion Mast Track to win the Native Diver Handicap.
Ascanio was voted trainer of the meet by media, while Ventura was voted Hose of the Meet, Older Female and Female Turf Horse. Fluke was Turf Horse and Mast Track Older Horse.
Jockey Joel Rosario equaled the Hollywood Park record of six wins on a program, set by Bill Shoemaker in 1953 and matched by Laffit Pincay Jr. (1968), Shoemaker (1970) and Kent Desormeaux (1992). Rosario's six wins came on Dec. 11 as he padded his lead atop the standings en route to his first Autumn Meet title with 37 winners. The title was his third of 2009 as he also was leading rider at Hollywood Park's Spring/Summer Meet and at Del Mar.
Lookin At Lucky firmly established himself as the nation's top 2-year-old with an impressive victory in the $750,000 CashCall Futurity on closing weekend. The win was a record fifth in the Futurity for Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert, who also earned his first quadruple here with four winners — all with juveniles — on the Futurity program.
John Sadler was leading trainer with 15 wins — one more than Baffert — as he earned his second Autumn Meet title and his third Hollywood Park crown.

Parable of the Old Men and the Young
So Abram rose, and clave the wood, and went,
And took the fire with him, and a knife.
And as they sojourned both of them together,
Isaac the first-born spake and said, My Father,
Behold the preparations, fire and iron,
But where the lamb for this burnt-offering?
Then Abram bound the youth with belts and straps,
and builded parapets and trenches there,
And stretchèd forth the knife to slay his son.
When lo! an angel called him out of heaven,
Saying, Lay not thy hand upon the lad,
Neither do anything to him. Behold,
A ram, caught in a thicket by its horns;
Offer the Ram of Pride instead of him.
But the old man would not so, but slew his son,
And half the seed of Europe, one by one.

Natural, Season-Spanning Decor
Forget the life-size light-up mummies and ceiling-suspended spiders. This fall, stick to a natural, season-spanning look that's more crafty than creepy, and you'll be done with decorating until after Thanksgiving.
Mum's The Word
Break out of your seasonal entryway decorating rut, but keep it simple. These quirky, cozy-looking pumpkins decorated with scraps of leftover plaid fabrics are scarily easy to make. Just take strips of varying widths and wrap them around the middle of your pumpkins; add large wooden buttons to the front, and use straight pins with colored ball heads to keep them in place. Large urns overflowing with mums complete the look.

The FTC does, in fact, have processes that allow it to file lawsuits, despite what this story originally reported.
Days before the president is scheduled to announce possible reform proposals to the NSA's surveillance programs, the civil liberties group creates a petition calling for Snowden's amnesty.
As promised, the American Civil Liberties Union appeals a ruling that found the NSA's bulk collection of phone metadata to be legal and a "vital tool."

Looking to protect gun owners' privacy, the NRA files a brief supporting the ACLU's lawsuit aimed at halting the NSA's spying program.

The civil liberties group claims AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, and Sprint aren't doing enough to protect users' private data because they're not sending out timely Android security updates.
FBI, DHS, and other agencies have not complied with ACLU requests for information about use of surveillance system, civil liberties group alleges.

|White Album Remaster Too Good?
Of all the Beatles' remastered CDs, I feel that the clearest difference from the earlier CD release is shown with the 'White Album'. The sound simply shines, and makes a great record sound more full, dramatic and stunning than ever.

LIVE! | Firefest Festival 2012: Day 3 – Danger Danger, Lillian Axe, Stage Dolls, Fiona, Farcry, Brighton Rock, Royal Hunt
by Marcel "Mars" Groeneveld
– Columnist –
October 21, 2012 At Rock City in Nottingham, UK –
Firefest Sunday is the final day and was received with mixed feelings. Similar to the feeling people have during the last day of their holiday, you still have one day to go but you know it will be over soon.
Having to cancel last years gig due to unforeseen circumstances, many people were happily surprised to see Farcry on this year's bill. The New Jersey rockers, with main man Pete Fry, kicked off super Sunday with "She's Crazy" from their 2008 debut album High Gear. First noticeable thing was Mark Giovi had been replaced by Mike Ledesma on vocals and that is not necessarily a bad thing. I have to say he handled the high parts in "Over and Over (Again!)" better than we heard at last year's Firefest.
Pete Fry the brains and guitarist behind Farcry did come over in 2011 and had the pleasure of performing this song he co-wrote with Steve Newman with Steve's band Newman. The set was evenly divided between 4 songs off the debut and 4 songs off of 2011's Optimisme. "After Nothing You Can Do" the cool ballad "Better Than This" with a nice acoustic guitar intro, Ledesma had to step up to the plate and delivered vocals even a little bit higher than the original. Sometimes Ledesma looked a little lost between the songs, talking about the Olympics and the Beatles wasn't his best move but great vocals that fit Farcry perfectly. Overall an entertaining set again only 40 minutes in which it is hard for a band to win over a crowd but Farcry just did that. Downside Pete Fry is on the lookout for a new acoustic guitar as one of the roadies dropped it on stage, poor guy.
Up next was Fiona and having the same backing band as Robin Beck, people were comparing the two singers with another. Well you can't compare them in my opinion it wouldn't be fair. Although their posters were hanging on many headbangers bedroom walls together with Lita Ford, Doro, Lee Aaron and Vixen, all respected rock babes, they did have that both in common and also still have the looks now. Unfortunately the sound on stage had been a problem as I also was told by other performers but Fiona did not reach her old form from back in the days. The chemistry of James Christian, Tommy Denander, Jorge Salan, Eric Ragno and B.J. Zampa is amazing and definitely ingredients for a new super group to be. Seeing her jump up and down on "Loved Along the Way," the first track of the new 2011 CD Unbroken, Fiona got some decent response and the quality of sound improved with "Treat Me Right." Fiona not having been on stage for like 20 plus years looked a little out of place and reminded me of Jeff Paris last year, who also looked a bit goofy on stage. She did enjoy herself on stage with "Keeper of the Flame," "Hang Your Heart On Me" and "Heart's On Fire" even Fiona was impressed by the guys in the band. With "Shadows of the Night" she tried to get the crowd to wave their hands from side to side which kind of went nowhere, but still the set ended and is a good start for the European Tour with Robin Beck. Things only can get better.
Another band that just recently toured Europe was Royal Hunt and with DC Cooper running around and two beautiful female background singers on stage you can't go wrong. They kicked off with "One More Day" from their 2011 release Show Me How To Live which saw the return of DC Cooper. Andre Andersen is the Yngwie Malmsteen of keyboards and also founder of Royal Hunt. Speaking of Malmsteen guitar player Jonas Larsen could have been his younger brother having a similar look and his melodic style fits the band perfectly as heard on 2001 title song "The Mission". Allan Sorensen's intro on drums followed by Andreas Passmark's bass got the people clapping along with DC Cooper encouraging them. Followed by 2 killer tracks from the 1995 classic Moving Target- "Step By Step" and "Last Goodbye", Cooper made the crowd go wild by jumping of stage and joining the people in the front rows. The interaction between the band members gave away they already played on small stages and it doesn't have to be a problem at all. Again treating the audience to a new track "Half Past Loneliness" from their last CD and with an all-time classic "Stranded" of the 1992 debut album Land Of The Broken Hearts the band run out of time due to the long switch. However having Firefest main man Kieran Dargan as a fan in your corner helps and Royal Hunt was allowed to go out with a bang with "Message To God" from the 1997 Paradox album. It was a pleasure to see this kind of music making it to the Firefest line up and after heard all the opinions everyone agreed, it fitted well!
I guess the next band, Canadian Rockers Brighton Rock, was building up the suspense… kicking in "Unleash the Rage" from 1988 Take a Deep Breath. Nothing strange about that but vocalist Gerry McGee was singing back stage for like 45 seconds before actually coming on stage for all to see. That was let say, different, but I was absolutely blown away by the roughness of McGee's vocals. A small insight information McGhee also auditioned in 1992 to replace Vince Neil in Motley Crue, as his guitarist Greg Fraser joined Helix. Now reformed once again the band kicked ass and was the loudest and roughest band so far on Firefest. "Young, Wild And Free" was blasting through the speakers with the guitar level way past 11, but the crowd seem to love it. Followed by "Barricade," both tracks were recorded for the 1985 EP and got them signed to Warner Music and ending up on their debut release Young Wild and Free in 1986. Returning again to their most successful album to date with "Hanging High & Dry," "Outlaw "and "Rebels with A Cause" from Take a Deep Breath which received gold in Canada was received pretty well. It shows the class of Greg Fraser as an axeman while McGhee sometimes sounds like a mix between Ronnie Atkins of Pretty Maids and Brian Johnson of AC/DC. Although with "Hanging High And Dry" after a cool intro from Johnny Rogers on keyboards, McGhee had not enough power to reach above the still way too loud mix and the vocals were a bit lost. The 3rd album 1991 Love Machine was also represented with the up tempo rocker "Hollywood Shuffle" and after "We Came To Rock" some crowd anticipation was involved when the chorus was song on "One More Try." Again Greg Fraser was showing of his moves on Love Machine's "Night Stalker" the rhythm section proves to be pretty tight with Steve Skreebs handling bass and Mark Carvazan on drums. Going into a "Power Overload" the Firefest crowd also cheered on Brighton Rock and to complete the set again an up tempo rocker from Love Machine "Bulletproof" was played. Cool set, a few problems with the mix but an enjoyable show of these veteran Canadian Rockers. (Cool detail for the metal nerds After Take A Deep Breath turned gold the first album Young, Wild and Free also turned gold later that year, MG)
Each year brings a band with high expectations, for me it was the next act on the bill, New Orleans rockers Lillian Axe. It has been 21 years at the Foundation Forum in Los Angeles when I saw them perform live on stage and they made a big impression. After Ron Taylor left the band and being gutted about it, I saw a clip of "Misery Loves Company" song buy a guy called Derrick LeFevre. It cheered me right up as he sounds a lot like Taylor. Again disappointed to hear he left the band and knowing Steve Blaze getting a good guy to step in once again to handle vocal duties I was not worried. After a few changes in comes new singer Brian Jones. So keep in mind I totally was expecting Jones to walk up on stage and much to my surprise, out comes Derrick LeFevre, a "…Helllll Yeahh…" was going through my mind.
I wondered if they would adjust the set but the place got rocking with "Misery Loves Company" from the 1988 self-titled album with the amazing Steve Blaze, this guy shreds like no other. When he first saw daylight exiting the womb he was probably holding a guitar in one hand. Lillian Axe was pickup straight away by the Firefest audience. Very strange all the problems with the sound were gone "Deepfreeze" from 1993 release Psychoschizophrenia with the drum intro sounds was perfect. Ken Koudelka is battering the drums and Eric Morris is pounding his bass and they are tight as can be. With "All's Fair In Love & War" from the classic 1989 album Love + War again bass and drums sounding like a well-oiled machine and with second guitarist Sam Poitevent laying down the melody. The beautiful twin guitar peace in the middle of this song sounds great and LeFevre is sounding amazing as well on vocals. The crowd loves this and the intro to the 1992 Poetic Justice "Mercy" LeFebre gets the people cheering once again.
The set is pretty much a best of Lillian Axe songs from the first four albums era. With "The World Stopped Turning," "Hard Luck" and "True Believer" going in to "Dream Of A Lifetime," Steve Blaze is everywhere on stage acting like the alpha male. A role that fits him perfectly singing second vocals to almost everything and convincing everybody on guitar with his cool melodies and killer solo's he rules. With another killer riff on the new song "Babylon" from the new 2012 album XI: The Days Before Tomorrow he raises his fist to the crowd who joins him and a new chapter has begun for the band. With the hard rocker "Crucified" and the amazing intro of "Ghost of Winter," I cannot stop thinking; "…stupid, stupid, stupid…" I should have gone and seen them on the European tour before when I had the chance. With another new piece that fits in perfect with the set "Death Comes Tomorrow" it is clear this band can put on a show they are playing like veterans. Not only on stage it sounds great but they look a band and although it is fun to see some acts perform who haven't been on stage for years, unfortunately it shows. Especially with a band like Lillian Axe and with "Show A Little Love" I have made up my mind. In my opinion they are this year's best band on the bill who really delivered the goods. Closing down with the Badfinger cover of the Poetic Justice album "No Matter What" the Rock city is once again shaking on its foundation, what a great show. I have to say my respect and complements go out to of course the band but especially Derrick LeFevre. The pressure was all on him stepping in at the last moment but he pulled it off in a big way!!
After cooling down a bit the stage was set for Norwegian veteran rockers Stage Dolls, the band that made a huge impression on the 2010 edition of Firefest. Being 3rd on the bill then they moved up a bit and are now on the special guest spot at Firefest Sunday 2012.
The band Stage Dolls "Always" did well in the U.K. and that also happens to be the first song of tonight's show and is well received. The successful 2010 released album Always hit the number 1 position in the Norwegian charts and was rewarded with the Gold status. It is very impressive for a melodic rock band to achieve a gold record these days.
However no surprise here, as the quality of their songs are top notch. Also the next song from their self-titled Stage Dolls 1988 release "Love Cries" is known to the audience and the Firefest choir jumps in on the chorus. Torstein Flakne's voice is easy on the ears and his melodic guitar riffs fit his songwriting. The chemistry between Falkne and his bass player Terje Storli is very noticeable; they fool around on stage, make jokes but deliver first class rock. With the classic track "Left Foot Boogie" of the 1985 Soldiers Gun and re-recorded on 1991 Stripped Morten Skogstad is laying down the pace on drums for this groovy track. From the groove to a ballad, again from Stripped things wind down with a Richard Marx kind of vibe to it on "Love Don't Bother Me". Of course the audience is still good to Stage Dolls and sing and clap along and going in to the "ho ho ho's" on the 1986 released title track "Commandos" and it doesn't stop there. With again slowing things down a bit with "Sorry Is All I Can Say" again from Stripped, the "hey hey hey's" come out on "Wings Of Steel." The organization has done well to get these guys back and with one of their biggest hits 'Still In Love" they hit the bull's-eye just to finish it off with an oldie and also the title song of the 1985 release Soldiers Gun. Saying goodbye to a thankful audience is always nice but all credits go out to these excellent Norwegian rockers.
If the night would end now, it already would have been a perfect day but no diner is complete without some dessert and it has got to be naughty as well. What better way to close down with cult heroes Danger Danger hailing from Queens, New York. Returning after 4 years also hitting the Firefest stage in 2008, last time I saw them perform was in Germany on the United Forces Of Rock festival and they rocked!
What better way to start off with "Rock America" from their debut 1989 golden awarded album Danger Danger. (Difference between Norwegian gold – 50.000 units or American awarded gold – 500.000 units, Danger Danger sold over 1 million units all together, MG.)
The Firefest party continued with "Beat The Bullet" from the 1992 Screw It album and even the non-believers who went along for the ride could not help but sing along. The next song "Shot Of Love" was recorded originally in 1993 for the album Cockroach but was shelved until Epic released it in 2002. First recording was done with Ted Poley later they replaced Poley with Paul Laine and re-recorded the vocals. Because of problems concerning the rights which almost took 8 years to be solved, Danger Danger saw both recordings finally being released as a double CD in 2002. Mister fast fingers Rob Marcello who is in great form delivers a solid solo on this song, this guy so looks the 80s, he fits the part perfectly. Also the newer stuff is represented, from the 2009 Revolve release with "Killin' Love" which has the signature songwriting of drummer Steve West and bassist Bruno Ravel, melodic but still hard driven powerful songs.
These posers deliver and with "Don't Walk Away" Poley does the unexpected even bandleader bass-player Bruno Ravel is looking around for his front man. The crowd loves the fact Poley jumped of stage and makes his way through the audience singing this great ballad from their debut album. He even goes up the stairways; across the balcony and goes back the same way just to be on time to finish the song on stage again. How cool is that and Ravel looks relieved. After being roused up, the Firefest tonsils are being tested again on Screw It's "Don't Blame It On Love" with the "Whooohoohoo's" and clapping along. Poley also loves to take a sip of water and spit it out in the air and him walking through the moist, hmmm. Old songs, new songs like "Hearts On The Highway," the choir sings along with the chorus of almost every song. The semi ballad "Feels Like Love" and "Bang Bang" also from the first album Poley thanks the audience for singing along and is shooting with live ammunition, his amazing voice! On "I Still Think About You" again great guitar work from Marcello and Poley testing his pipes with a long note on the first part of the song. The crowd responds with cheers, Poley later in song does the wail thing again blowing water in the air and some landing on Ravel as he looks around to see Poley doing his thing and laughs.
The chemistry on stage looks greats and these guys are having a blast with each other. Another "whohoho" sing along song, the upbeat tempo "Crazy Night" like the previous song also from Screw It goes in like candy and an encore is unquestionable for the Firefesters. They need more and they will get more with "Monkey Business" and Firefest being the festival it is, two monkeys, read grown man in monkey suits, come hoping on stage with bananas. Also friend of the band Mitch Malloy enters the stage and helps sing the song with near 2000 crazed rockers. After goofing around a bit on stage doing some Kiss for a minute the grand finale kicks in with "Naughty Naughty" their greatest hit. It was a cool thing to see first Robin Beck and Terry Ilous join the band on stage, followed by James Christian, Tommy Denander and Firefest's own Tony Marshall. With Poley introducing the band the others disappear off stage and Ravel introduces the man, the myth, the legend, the crutch, the one and only Ted Poley, the crowd roars. Poley ends the show with "Together we are Danger Fucking Danger, stay horny everybody… it was a night to remember thank you everybody." So another Firefest comes to an end but they have announced the 10th anniversary will be even more spectacular than all the precious editions before. Until next year!

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Kicker IX500.1 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. Kicker technology = big bass from a small amp The compact chassis of this Kicker IX Series amp houses a technical powerhouse. It uses the same voltage-boost technology found in some electric-hybrid vehicles to achieve over 90% efficiency which means you get more power from a smaller, cooler amp. Kicker combined this high-current design with Class D digital technology to unleash more watts per cubic inch than most amps. And an IX Series amp runs so cool you can stack multiple amps together for a professional-looking installation. 500 watts with plenty of control The IX500.1 mono subwoofer amplifier delivers up to 500 watts RMS to your sub so you can enjoy a big kick to your music. You can shape the low-end impact with the low-pass filter, and the subsonic filter eliminates bass below 25 Hz so your subs play more efficiently. Noise-reducing technology removes electrical system interference as it enters the amp's inputs, allowing your subs see the only cleanest musical signal possible. Kicker includes a wired remote control so you can dial in just the right amount of bass boost from the driver's seat.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Connections Features Class D Amplifier Design: The Kicker IX500.1 (2011 version) is a mono-block Class D amplifier, which uses digital switching to amplify audio signals. This design results in high efficiency and less heat. The Class D design also allows the IX500.1 to have a very small footprint for ease of installation. Mono-Power Amp Design: The Kicker IX500.1 is designed with specific features to power your subwoofers with a frequency range between 25-200 Hz. The amplifier can handle impedance loads down to 2 ohms. The amplifier is rated at 275 watts x 1 channel RMS @ 4 ohms (25-200 Hz, 1% THD). At 2 ohms, the amp is rated at 500 watts x 1 channel RMS (25-200 Hz, 1% THD). Note: This amplifier is not designed for full-range operation. Power Supply: The Kicker IX-series mono subwoofer amplifiers use a boost-converter power supply for the highest sound quality and efficiency. Boost-converter technology allows the amp to achieve efficiency of more than 90%. Because there are fewer internal parts, the amp has a smaller form factor, and results in cooler operation, better reliability, and overall excellent performance. CEA 2006 Compliant: The Kicker IX500.1's power ratings are measured according to the strict standards dictated by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA). These standards allow you to accurately compare the rated power output of all CEA 2006-compliant amplifiers, even if they come from different brands. Manufacturers who adhere to the standards can display the CEA 2006 logo on their products and packaging. Kicker Livin' Loud Certified Power Certificate: The amplifier comes with a certificate that indicates the total maximum wattage of the particular amplifier, along with the model number, serial number, tested date, and whether the amplifier passed the total harmonic distortion, signal-to-noise ratio, and protection circuit tests. Low Pass Filter: The Kicker IX500.1 is equipped with a selectable electronic crossover. This continuously variable low pass filter can be set between 50 Hz and 200 Hz with a slope of 24dB per octave. Properly set, the low pass filter creates a smooth transition between the subwoofer and the sound system's full-range speakers. Subsonic Filter: The amp features a 24 dB/octave subsonic filter fixed at 25 Hz. Ultra-low frequencies that cannot be reproduced by a subwoofer do not become sound but become unnecessary oscillations, which affect sound by causing distortion. These frequencies also waste amplifier power and can cause damage to speakers. The built-in subsonic filter cuts the frequencies below 25 Hz to improve the reproduction performance of the speakers by eliminating harmful distortion. Note: The subsonic filter is not defeatable. Auto Turn-On: The 3-way Auto Turn-On switch offers three options: +12 V: The amp turns on when +12 volts is applied to the remote terminal. DC Offset: The amp turns on when a 6 volt surge is detected on the signal inputs (from a speaker-level source); in this mode the amp's remote terminal acts as a +12 volt output to turn on another component. Audio: The amp turns on when an incoming audio signal is detected; in this mode the amp's remote terminal acts as a +12 volt output to turn on another component. Input Level Control: To accommodate the varying range of signal levels coming from today's factory and aftermarket radios, the Kicker IX500.1 features a switchable input level control. When the switch is set to Low level, the amp can accommodate an input signal of 125mV-5V. At High level, the amp will accept 250mV-10V signals. This means that no matter what kind of radio is connected to this amplifier, the appropriate gain control adjustment can be made to ensure loud, clear, distortion-free music. Gain Control: With the Input Level Control switch at the appropriate setting, you can set the rotary Gain Control to match the output of the source unit. The Gain Control adjusts with a flat-head screwdriver, and can be set between 0 and 11. KICKEQ Bass Boost: When you want more bass out of the amplifier, you can adjust the KICKEQ Bass Boost control. The bass boost is centered at 40 Hz, and can be adjusted between 0 and 18dB. ZXRC Remote Bass Control: The IX500.1 comes with the ZXRC Remote Bass Control, which allows you to control the output level of the amplifier from the front of your vehicle. The wired remote bass level control comes with a mounting bracket to mount it under your dash. The supplied 20' cable, with RJ-25 phone plugs at each end, connects the wired remote bass level control to the amplifier. Note: The ZXRC Remote Bass Control measures 2.25" wide x 1.25" high x 2.375" deep. Soft-Start Circuitry: The Kicker IX500.1 contains "soft-start" circuitry that lessens initial shock load when powering up the amplifier, and a muting circuit to eliminate audio distortion that might surge down the line. Protection Circuitry: The IX500.1 has protection circuitry that will turn the amp off in the event of overheating, over voltage (power input), under voltage (power input), short circuit (speaker output), and over current (speaker output). If the Protection LED on the front side of the amp illuminates red, the protection circuit has engaged and the amp will not play until the problem is resolved. Stackable: The optional Kicker IXSM stacking mount (206IXSM, sold separately) allows you to stack two Kicker IX-series amplifiers on top of one another. Connections Power Connections: The power and ground connections are set-screw terminals that will accommodate up to 4-gauge wire. The remote turn-on set-screw terminal will accept up to 8-gauge wire. The included 3mm Hex key is required to tighten/loosen the terminals. Speaker Outputs: The Kicker IX500.1 is equipped with one pair of speaker terminals. Both speaker terminals are set-screw terminals that will accommodate up to 8-gauge wire. The supplied 3mm Hex key is required to tighten/loosen the terminals. RCA Input Connector: The amplifier is equipped with one pair of RCA inputs, which can be used for a line level or speaker level input signal. If the source device doesn't have preamp level outputs, the KISL speaker wire to RCA adapter is needed and the Input Level switch should be set to High. Line Level Output: The amplifier has a pair of RCA line level outputs for feeding a signal to another amplifier. It is the same signal that is input through the line inputs. The amplifier's crossovers have no effect on the line level output signal, however, if the input signal is crossed over at the source unit, the filtered signal will be passed on to the second amplifier.

Written By DustinG, Sidney, MT on Friday, February 03, 2012 I own the "IX 1000" which is a step up from this "IX 500" but i figured since i own basicaly the same thing i could be helpful. These Amp's are the real deal. Very Accurate Bass is produced from these amps. Great range of tuneing options. Easy install and easy to opporate, and fits almost anywhere! The "Bass Knob" makes it really easy to tune the bass to any song in a snap. so you can be shaking the mirrors to a Rap song, and tune your bass down for some rockin'roll with a simple, easy, turn of a small knob. Great technology, amp stayes cool and delivers clean, powerful, bass even on hot summer days! this IX500 Would go great with a Alpine Type R 12" but keep in mind! these amps have the power to blow subs so be careful!

I purchased my Shell Bag in 1992. It's survived the BWCA several times, college, New Zealand, Australia, moving to 3 states... it has that well-loved, well-worn look to it. I also, have a #4 bag which pairs together with it perfectly!

I bought my wife a #100 shell bag with an internal pocket back in 1990. After many years, she finally wore through the canvas in the back. We keep meaning to send it in to be repaired, but I bought her a Deluxe instead : )

I bought my bag in 1999 and I carry it to & from work every day, where I shove it into a drawer. You would never guess it's that old and seen that much use. It developed a hole from the leather rubbing on the inside so I had that repaired. Now, the edging is worn so I might take it in to have it repaired. No other bag holds up as well or as long as Duluth Pack! Being semi-environmentally conscience, I love that I can send it back and they will repair it instead of needing to buy another one. Great product & great service!

- Best bag I ever had!
- Rating
I've had this bag almost ten years, its the one I use every day except for an occasional switch to a day pack. It is a little faded, (was black, now a dark charcoal gray) but the leather, stitching, zips, and brass are in great shape and still handsome. The interior has just the perfect number and arrangements of pockets for me. The onIy sign of real wear is a little abraded fabric on the top edge of the flap near the leather binding. I just revisited your website to start some holiday gift planning and looked up my favorite bag of all time- glad to see you are still offering it.

Picked up this #100 bag at the Duluth store in 2002. Used it for many years as a purse. Only traded out because I got tired of it. A little faded and worn after many, many miles. The leather, buckles, rings and rivets are still in great shape.

- Great for fly fishing

I wanted a small bag for fly fishing gear instead of wearing a vest which doesn't interest me. I instantly thought of Duluth Pack since I own other packs from them. The shell bag is perfect for keeping flies, reels, spools, etc. easily accessible!

text: I went out a couple of months ago, just looking for rabbits and what not that were eating up my parent's garden.... Turns out they had 3 little bush rabbits running around. I decided I should try out my Cheetah w/ G5 SGHs on the little bastards. I not only hit a rabbit, but it snapped it's back leg clean off! I also smoked one at about 10 yards with a judo tip, and pretty much made a 3'' gaping hole right in it's side. I never knew these little small game broadheads could be so devastating! I look forward to thinning out the rabbit population all around town (town of 300 ppl) throughout the rest of summer!

It was 1989. Cochran, who stands 5 feet 2 inches and weighs just over 100 pounds, was the only female taking the test.
Bailey said the men applying alongside Cochran hid and watched as she dragged a 100-pound dummy 50 feet.
"When she got to the end, she turned around and said, 'Do you want me to bring it back?'" Bailey said.
She got the job.
Cochran, who will retire Friday after 23 years with BCFD, said her desire to join the fire service came from watching her uncles, who were firefighters in Douglas County.
It was not a quick process. Cochran applied for years with both Cartersville Fire Department and BCFD before the county hired her.
"I did apply with the city first and then the county," she said. "After the county hired me, the city kept trying to hire me for three or four years after that. I told them I was staying with the county because the county gave me a chance."
For Bailey, the decision to hire Cochran came down to her abilities.
"When we were interviewing for some open positions — I was assistant chief at the time working with the training officer — and the only thing we were looking for were the best, most qualified candidates. And she was one of the most qualified candidates we had at the time," he said. "It wasn't because of gender or anything else; she was just the best qualified candidate we were looking for."
Cochran, 50, said her first few years with the department were not easy.
"My first two years in the department I caught hell. I truly did. I had to prove that I could do the job," she said. "I did my job and then some, and all the guys had to see that I could pull my weight and do my part. After I did that, then I was one of them but it took a lot of proving."
Although she may have been treated differently because of her gender, Cochran said she never thought of complaining.
"No, discrimination never crossed my mind because, you know, hey, I was going to prove to them and everybody else that I could do my job and do it just as good as they could regardless. Like I said, it took a couple years," she said. "We have had a lot of good times; we've pulled a lot of jokes on each other in the past. I wouldn't take anything for it really. I've been taped to a few poles in my time."
Cochran's mother, Polly, said her daughter's strength and "go-getter" personality helped her succeed.
"She's just a firecracker, she's a firefighter," Polly Cochran said. "She never expected to be treated any different, and whatever she made, she made it on her own.
"She never went crying to [her superiors] … She was tough, strong. If she hadn't been, she couldn't have gone through what she's been through in her lifetime."
Cochran, who grew up on a farm, was a "very active" child who always wanted to help people, her mother said.
"All my kids were sweet but she was the baby and she was just right with me all the time. … As a child she was just the sweetest thing," Polly Cochran said. "… She's just willing to do anything for anybody."
And Cochran did help — she paved the way for women in the county's fire department.
"I think I've helped. Yeah, I do," she said. "I think that each individual does that themselves in their own way. The first female? Sure that helped break the barriers and to prove that females can do the job just as well as males can."
BCFD Sgt. Lisa Hahn, one of the handful of women now in the county's ranks, agreed.
"I think the biggest thing [she did for women in the department] is probably she opened their eyes that it's not so bad having females in the department. She kind of taught them it's OK to have us around," Hahn said. "Coming in when she did too, she came in early on … If someone came in today being the first female, it still wouldn't be as trying, I guess, as it was for her back then when she came in."
Cochran worked her way through the department, becoming the first female sergeant in 1991 and the county's only female captain to date in 1999.
Bailey said Cochran's hard work and dedication propelled her through the ranks of the fire service.
"She, like all firefighters that I've known, she was dedicated to her job. She came in as a young firefighter, worked hard, played hard and learned the profession from the ground up, and as she learned and worked hard, she was promoted through the ranks," he said. "I'm extremely proud of her because, again, firefighting has always been a male-dominated profession and she came in and she worked hard enough to overcome those obstacles and still get the job done."
Now, she said, her advice to other women in the department is to do the same.
"The one thing [I tell them] is learn your job, know your job … that way the other firefighters will not question you and, in return, you earn their respect," Cochran said. "If they know you know what you are doing, it doesn't matter whether you are male or female …, and you don't ask them to do anything that you haven't already done and they know you can do it. Therefore, they don't question you, they don't question your authority or 'Hey, I wonder if she can do that.' They've already seen that happen."
Calling her one of the "most patient individuals you could have teaching you," Hahn said Cochran stressed treating others the way you would like to be treated and remembering where you came from.
"She also said you don't expect any special favors by being female," Hahn said. "You're being allowed to be in their world, so it's up to you to fit in. You'll have to prove yourself … but you know that's one of the prices we have to pay to step into something that really didn't have a place for you in the beginning."
Cochran, who is an emergency medical technician and HAZMAT tech, became director of the county's fire safety education program 20 years ago. She was named Georgia State Firefighter's Association Fire Safety Educator of the Year in August and the Elks Lodge Public Safety Officer of the Year in 2000. She was named Bartow County's Firefighter of the Year in 2005.
In addition to fire safety education, she acquired the department's self-contained breathing apparatus program 18 years ago. Under her direction, each county firefighter's breathing system from mask to air tank is checked and maintained, which could mean the difference between life and death in a fire.
"She took the fire safety education from nothing to where it is today," Hahn said. "We are all made to go through that class now where we can be a little bit of help to her. This county is huge. It has a lot of schools, elderly people. …
"She's spent her whole career doing that, not to mention the fact that she takes care of our SCBAs, which is our lifeline. She didn't take any of that lightly. Just like she does everything else, if she's going to do it she's going to do it 110 percent. Period. It's just how she is, even if it's crocheting."
For her dedication shown to the department, a retirement reception will be held for Cochran Thursday from 1 to 3 p.m. at BCFD Station 1 on Ga. State Route 20. Those interested in attending are asked to RSVP by Monday to 770-387-5151.
Saying she wouldn't take anything for the past 23 years, Cochran recalled a comment from Bailey after he was named fire chief that summed up her experience.
"The one comment I can remember when Chief Bailey made chief …, he said, 'Girl, I never worried about you.' He said, 'I knew you could hold your own.'"
And hold her own she has. When asked what she would say to Cochran, Hahn said simply, "Thank you."
"What can you say to someone who's done pretty much everything for you? ... She is one of the backbones of this department. There's not too many left."
Bailey said only time will tell exactly how Cochran impacted the department.
"There's no way to measure how much this department has benefited from her abilities and her willingness to step out and do what needs to be done. If there's a job to be done, she's made sure that she was available, that she took part and did the best she could," he said. "As bad as she's going miss it, you don't realize how bad you're going to miss it until she's not there to do it.
"Most of all [we'll miss] the friendship. Those of us who have known and loved her, she's as good a friend as you could have."

I am creating an application in PHP, MySql, Javascript and (of course HTML), but I would like to know how i can protect my code from being stolen.

Some ideas:

Any Ideas would be appreciated.
