Comments about Weider Pro 350 L:
I'm 50 and my wife is 47, we bought this bench because we wanted to include free weights in our work out. I use to workout a lot as a teenager and used free weights and had a Romine chair, so I know what equipment is best for my wife and I to use at our age.
While talking to the sales rep my wife noticed that the upper portion was made for Olympic weight bar, while the leg curl portion was made for Standard weights.
The standard bench was to flimsy for me so I told the salesman that I would not buy a bench unless I could use both portions with Olympic weights.
He went to the stockroom to read the box and came back and said that it had a sleeve that would turn it into an Olympic leg curl. LIER!! My wife got in line while I went to get my truck for loading at the front door, it was loaded and we went home.
We got home last night and put it together and there was no adapter! It was fairly easy to put together however the bolt to the leg lift sticks out and rubs on my wife's right leg so she has to put a wash cloth over the bolt.
We are using a small bedroom as our Gym so the folding bench is a must for us as we have an elliptical/recumbent bike and a treadmill in the room as well.
With the exception of the Leg curl arm, the bench is well designed for our height and size 5'9" 206 Lbs. and 5'0" 126 Lbs. I like the "A" frame style bar support legs. The bench on display had loose bolts and that made it seem flimsy but when all of the bolts are tight, it is study. I wish it had a preacher curl attachment but I will just buy or make one.
I contacted the products maker to see if they have an adapter for the leg curl arm? They said
We bought a Pro-Form Elliptical/Recumbent bike from the same sales man last month, but from this point on I will not trust what a sales person says, they will have to open the box and show me any equipment that they clam has an adapter.
I called Weider-Pro and waited for 50 minutes for a Rep to answer. The Rep Wendy did not know the difference between Olympic and Standard weights, and could not understand my question about the adapter to convert the Standard weight holder to an Olympic weight holder. She would not allow me to explain the difference between them and talked over me and was rude. I asked for a supervisor and she talked over my request.
I was able to get her to tell me that Weider-Pro, Pro-Form, and "I Fit" was the same company. Wendy told me that the parts that was in the box where all that comes with the bench and that there is no adapter.
I am going to write Weider-Pro and recommend that "Wendy" be trained in People Skills and the equipment there Products are designed for and just return the bench to buy another brand from a different retailer.

Comments about Weider Pro 350 L:
First off I want to say that this unit is fairly sturdy for the price and seeing as I'm a big guy. I got a good amount of use out of this bench but I was a little upset that I could not use the incline for normal incline bench press. The bench comes so far forward that you're literally extending behind your head to lift bar up. There is no way I'm doing that and breaking my arms. I found myself using the incline more so for dumbbell incline press. The decline was just fine though. As for the leg curl I could careless because I'm too tall for it to be effective. I knew this going into purchasing it. I do like how it folds and stores because it came in handy until I moved it to a spot where I never had to fold it anymore.
I will be selling this unit and getting a stand alone squat rack and rolling bench to get full range usage going forward.

You need to own a 6 foot weight bar, we bought a 5 ft bar and had to upgrade. Still like the new bench, very sturdy if you tighten it up.

It is noble to help starving children overseas, to adopt shelter animals and to donate money to charitable and research hospitals. In return, some offer you a T- shirt, certificate, tote bag or monthly pictures and thank-you cards.
My two favorite charities are a national organization that helps people down-on-their-luck and trains them for work, and a children's hospital where nobody is turned away because they can't pay. Turns out one of my sons has given generously — meaning even more than me — to the same hospital. It is our way of saying thanks for having, between us, seven healthy and happy (most of the time) children.
Global giving notwithstanding, there are times when charity begins closer-to-home. Maybe this is one of them. Superstorm Sandy barely clipped the D.C. area. We stocked up as per usual. Our comfort kit is white milk, white bread and toilet paper. All we got was some cold rain.
Other parts of the Atlantic coast got slammed. New Jersey and New York took a major hit. We've all seen the TV shots of the Jersey shore, flooding in lower Manhattan, etc. People are still without power, heat or fuel. Cops are monitoring gasoline rationing in stations which have the electric power to run the pumps. Many ATMs are out. Some people's homes are gone or uninhabitable.
They can use our support and (if that's your thing) prayers. But also, they can use cash. Like now.
There are many ways we can help. The Red Cross and Salvation Army are obvious choices. And there are many more.
For federal and postal workers, there is an obvious choice: FEEA. The Federal Employees Education and Assistance Fund. FEEA gets its money from some very generous corporate sponsors (GEICO, Blue Cross-Blue Shield, LTC Partners), and from some very generous federal workers. Some contribute with each paycheck via the Combined Federal Campaign. Others, at times like now, contribute directly.
Members of the National Active and Retired Federal Employees Association hit by the hurricane can apply for grants of up to $500 through the NARFE-FEEA fund. They must have documentation of damage or need. Those wishing to apply can do so by clicking here. Or, call (800) 338-0755. Remember, the lines are busy, and they are staffed by volunteers.
To donate to the NARFE-FEEA fund members can send tax deductible donations to:
NARFE-FEEA Disaster c/o: FEEA
3333 S. Wadsworth Blvd.
Suite 300
Lakewood, CO 80227.
You can also donate by credit card by calling (800) 338-075 or by clicking here. Select "NARFE-FEEA Relief Fund" from the drop down menu in the Gift Designation Section.
The National Treasury Employees Union (one of the co-founders of FEEA) has pledged to match up to $25,000 based on member contributions to FEEAs's NTEU Fund. More than 30 major federal installations (as well as the homes of workers) were right in the Hurricane Sandy bullseye.
All East Coast victims of the hurricane can download an application by clicking here.

Before settling on "The Army Goes Rolling Along," the Army planned to name "The Army's Always There" as its official song. The plan was scrapped, though, because it sounded too similar to a popular 1940s tune "I've Got a Lovely Bunch of Coconuts."

Tips for Open Season 2013
Open Season started Monday and runs through Dec. 10. During this period, federal employees can choose a different health care plan within the Federal Employee Health Benefits Program.
Who's going and who's staying in Obama's
second term
President Barack Obama may be staying put for four more years, but many of the top officials he appointed to agency posts are eyeing the exits.
Federal-employee, veterans
groups assail proposal to limit COLAs
Congress returns next week and is expected to begin work on an alternative to the across-the-board budget cuts, known as sequestration, slated to go into effect in January. But some federal-employee groups and veterans organizations say a legislative proposal that would result in lower cost-of-living adjustments for federal and Social Security retirees is a non-starter.
Obama, Boehner hint at
openness to compromise on taxes, spending
President Barack Obama and House Speaker John Boehner are signaling they're open to some compromise on a taxes and spending to prevent more financial pain in the new year, but the two sides are digging in on raising taxes for wealthier Americans. Obama said Friday that his re-election gave him a mandate to pursue that position because "the majority of Americans agree with my approach." Boehner is still insisting that raising tax rates as Obama wants "will destroy jobs in America."

Jockey Quotes
VICTOR ESPINOZA, BOBINA, Winner: "I hurt my left index finger. It's the same hand where I had an old injury, just in a different place. I rolled a few times and I kind of hit it right there. She was running unbelievable, as hard as she could. She bobbled a little for one step just before the wire and I tried to hold her together. Next thing I know, she just went down. For a minute I thought I was going to handle it, but it was impossible. It was just one wrong step. There was no warning. She didn't give me any sign that anything was bothering her. I feel good right now, but I'm going to take a couple of races off to see how it is."
KEVIN KRIGGER, MY GI GI, Second: "Right before the wire I got a real hard bump and it almost knocked me off stride. That's right before she came back out and broke down. I feel real sorry for the owner, you never know sometimes."

Belais Bros. Art Deco Diamond Sapphire Ring
As the original makers of white gold in American and renown for their attention to detail and artistic setting, the Belais Brother of New York holds a special place for collectors of early 20th century jewelry.
Here is an example of their glory in the guise of an 18k white gold ring. Although the centered old European cut diamond of approximately .10 carats (H-I color; SI1 clarity) is set within the expected octagonal shape, the philosophy of Art Deco stays true to its roots with its square at a 90 degree rotation mount. Palmette forms enclosed within a triangle configuration embellish at each cardinal point are interspersed with four (4) natural sapphires for that burst of color so associated with the period.
Date: Circa 1930.
Measurements: 1/2 of an inch (1.3 cm) in length north to south on the hand and rises just shy of 1/4 of an inch (0.5 cm) in height off the finger. Weight of 2.7 grams (1.7 dwt).
Ring Size: US 5-1/2 (UK K-1/2; Int. Dia. 16.25; Euro 51 mm; Japan 10) and can be easily sized to fit most. Ring sizing information.
Hallmarks: "18k"; "Belais"; "8956" which is most likely a model number.
Condition: Very good; sapphires replaced.
Origin: American.
Note: Diamond has not been removed from mount to preserve the integrity of the setting. Diamond weight has been approximated by measurement and formula and may vary from actual weight. Grading has been done in situ and also may vary if stone is removed.

All weights pertaining to diamond weights are minimum weights. Additionally, please note that many gemstones are treated to enhance their beauty. Click here for important information about gemstone enhancements and special care requirements.
Sterling silver, also called fine silver, is a beautifully lustrous cool-toned precious metal favored in fine jewelry among other products. The most reflective of all metals (excluding mercury), sterling silver looks stunning by itself and brings out the best hues in an array of colorful gemstones.
Sterling silver can be polished to a higher sheen than platinum. In fact, Ag, the chemical symbol for silver, comes from a word that means "white and shining." The surface of silver can boast that shiny, polished appearance, or can be brushed, satin, matte, sandblasted, antiqued or oxidized (chemically blackened).
In order to be called sterling silver, a metal must be made up of a minimum of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% alloy (meaning other metals), including but not limited to copper and nickel. The alloy is added to pure silver to make the metal more durable, tougher and harder. Sterling silver is designated a fineness of "925." Pieces with sterling silver may be marked "sterling."
Finishes on Sterling Silver
Finishing, or plating, is a common treatment with sterling silver. Popular types of plating are rhodium plating, gold plating and anti-tarnish plating. Plating is used to extend the life and sheen of the jewelry. After sizing or buffing a piece of jewelry with a machine, it must be re-plated to restore the finish.
Caring for Sterling Silver
Sterling silver becomes tarnished as the result of a natural chemical process that occurs when sterling silver is exposed to chemicals in the air, rubber, wool and latex. Humidity also plays a role in accelerating tarnishing. It's easy to keep your sterling silver sparkling, though, by taking a few steps to prevent tarnish and other wear and tear.

Cryptography challenge
Plus reported some time ago that the Secure Hash Algorithm SHA-1, on which the security of all electronic communication depends, came dangerously close to being cracked, thanks to the work of the Chinese mathematician Xiaoyun Wang (see The dangers of cracking hash).
Now the US National Institute of Standards and Technology is responding. This year it will launch a competition to find a new algorithm to replace SHA-1. Cryptographers sharpen your pencils!

Maths and science: Hugely important but poorly understood
A recent poll conducted in the US by Research!America showed that while US citizens feel that public understanding of maths and science is poor, they are well aware of its importance. The vast majority (85%) recognise that maths and science are very important, but over half (52%) feel that the US isn't performing as well as other nations in maths and science education. Maybe surprisingly, 87% rate being a scientist as one of the most prestigious careers, yet 75% can't name a living scientist. Sixty-four percent don't think average Americans are knowledgeable about science, and 76% think it is very important that young people are encouraged to pursue scientific careers, and that more opportunities for these careers are created.
Most people questioned felt that scientific advances in the medical and health sector were the most important to society, but many recognised that research in this area depended on maths (56%) and other maths based fields including computer science (62%), physics (58%) and engineering (49%).
A huge majority (97%) recognised that science research is important to the US economy and 94% also saw that it can create jobs and higher incomes. Global issues also scored highly with 67% seeing scientific research as very important in addressing global warming and 61% in eliminating poverty and hunger around the world.
And, interestingly for Plus, 70% wanted more media coverage of science and research.
"To address today's unprecedented opportunities in the science, technology, engineering and mathematics workforce, we must retool our education system to educate our young people in math and science more effectively and nurture the innate abilities of all young people, regardless of gender or race, to enter a STEM field of study," concluded Arden Bement, the director of the US National Science Foundation.

The gender issue
Would you like to become a mathematician, or rather stick to being a woman? There are of course many people who are both, and very successful ones at that, but the fact remains that women are still under-represented in maths-based careers and degree courses. They are also twice as likely to drop out of maths-based careers as men. Now a new study suggests that this may be due to the strain a maths environment puts on women's self-perception; a strain that works through unconscious gender stereotypes.
In an article published in the January issue of Psychological Science, psychologists Amy Kiefer of the University of California, San Francisco, and Denise Sekaquaptewa of the University of Michigan report on a study they carried out on undergraduates that were enrolled in an introductory calculus class. They rated women's implicit gender stereotypes, for example by checking if they automatically associated "male" with maths ability, and their self-perception, for example by asking if they identified themselves as feminine. They then followed their performance independently of the maths ability they had displayed previously.
The researchers found that the worst performers were those that had strong implicit gender stereotypes and were likely to identify themselves as feminine. This may seem unsurprising, but the important point is that the women's stereotypes were unconscious: the majority of women taking part in the study had explicitly stated that they do not believe that men are better at maths than women.
Another interesting point is the extent to which under-performance seems to be linked to gender identification. The authors suggest that this may give some insight into the high drop-out rate of women in maths-based careers. Women may feel that to be in tune with their work environment, they need to distance themselves from feminine characteristics. And the more they value these characteristics, the bigger the sacrifice that this involves, so that even women who are very good at what they do may come to leave their field.
It's sad to see how deep-seated women's stereotypes about their own abilities are, but there is hope. In recent decades women's participation in maths and science has increased drastically. There are many highly successful women mathematicians that can serve as role models. And once a critical mass has been reached, even the most ingrained stereotype can be overturned by experience.

Mathematical Moments - Harald Bohr
Died 56 years ago: Harald August Bohr
Born: 22nd of April 1887 in Copenhagen, Denmark
Harald Bohr must be the only mathematician who came to fame through football: as a member of the Danish national team he won a silver medal at the 1908 Olympics in London. Although it's hard to imagine these days, back then you could still pursue a sports career in your spare time, and by the time Bohr took part in the Olympics, he had already spent four years doing a maths degree at the University of Copenhagen. His sporting success gained him celebrity status in Denmark and when he defended his doctoral thesis after the games, the audience reportedly contained more football fans than mathematicians.
Eventually, though, his interest in maths gained the upper hand and he became a professor of mathematics at the Polytechnic Institute in Copenhagen in 1915, moving on to the University of Copenhagen in 1930. He was interested mainly in the application of analysis to number theory. Together with Edmund Landau he proved some major results about the Riemann zeta function, which lies at the heart of the famous Riemann hypothesis. Although their work contributed two important steps towards its solution, no-one has yet been able to fill in the remaining details — the problem is still unsolved and bugs mathematicians to this day.
But if Bohr's name rings a bell in your brain, it's probably not because of his football stardom, or because of his own excellent contribution to maths, but because of his famous brother Niels. Niels Bohr won the 1922 Nobel Prize for physics for his insights into the structure of atoms and for his work on radiation, and was one of the founding fathers of quantum mechanics. Although Niels takes most of the posthumous limelight, Harald's contribution to maths was nonetheless remarkable, gaining him international recognition as one of the most prominent Danish mathematicians of the twentieth century.
But Harald Bohr's life wasn't all maths. His generosity towards people in need, especially those fleeing the Nazi regime in Germany, gained him just as much international acclaim as his work.
You can read more about the brothers Bohr on the MacTutor History of Mathematics Archive:

At 2-5, the Pittsburgh Steelers are pretty much "dead and buried" when it comes to their postseason dreams. I personally do not mind that this team is three games under .500. In fact, I had no illusions that this rebuilding group would be remotely competitive this fall.
While I am fine with this team sagging at the moment, I for one am perplexed as to why the coaching staff is wasting a golden opportunity right now: benching and not starting their younger players.
Earlier in the week, it was reported by multiple outlets that rookie outside linebacker Jarvis Jones was benched in favor of mediocre veteran Jason Worilds. As inconsistent as the rookie had played during his first six professional games, it makes little sense to me as to why they would play a pending UFA like Worilds over their prized rookie.
In addition to Jones, why is Shamarko Thomas not entering the starting lineup over the washed-up Ryan Clark? While the rookie is best suited to play strong safety and has played extensively in Pittsburgh's "quarter" and "dime" sub-packages, why is the talented rookie losing playing time to Clark and Troy Polamalu not shifting to free safety?
Clark's inability to take correct angles to ball-carriers and pass-catchers, lack of speed, and inability to tackle on a consistent basis have been maddening to watch. The 34 year-old free safety is also an impending UFA like Worilds, and why Thomas and Robert Golden will likely be relegated to the bench in favor of Clark during the final nine games makes little to no sense whatsoever.
Rookie Vince Williams would likely be riding the pine too behind Larry Foote had the veteran inside linebacker not been injured during Pittsburgh's first regular season game, and Markus Wheaton would definitely be sitting on the bench even if his pinkie was not broken.
Final Thoughts
As a rebuilding team with a 2-5 record, the Steelers are actually in an unbelievably advantageous position to evaluate what they have on their roster during the final nine games. The coaching staff shouldn't be focused on playing "damage control" with over-the-hill and soon to be free agent players. Instead they should consider what extended playing time could do for the younger players they hope to build around down the road.
Developing their younger players and providing them with experience is what the coaching staff needs to do. Showering playing time on underachieving veterans does nothing but hurt the organization and their rebuilding efforts for the future.
Granted, I am sure that there are some of you might complain that, "Oh, the Steelers will continue to lose by playing their younger guys, etc.." To that I can only respond: "So what?"
Unless you haven't noticed, the 2013 campaign is already circling the proverbial "crapper." A team cannot build around draft busts like Worilds and aging and ineffective jokes like Clark. Therefore, why should valuable game experience be wasted at a juncture in which no postseason is on the horizon for this team? Plus, it doesn't hurt that more losses could lead to better draft positioning as well.
Mike Tomlin & co. should be experimenting with this roster, not settling for the ineffective status quo. Bill Cowher and his coaching staff gave early chances and reps to guys like Alan Faneca, Joey Porter, Aaron Smith, Marvel Smith, Hines Ward, Plaxico Burress, and Casey Hampton during the last rebuilding era (1998-2001), and those players used their early experiences to develop into enormous reasons why this team won two Super Bowls during the last decade.
I for one don't think it would hurt to follow the previous staff's lead, and I hope that we get to see an extensive amount of Thomas, Jones, Wheaton, and more of Pittsburgh's younger players down the stretch.

Features Controls Connections Features Overview: The SA1 amplifier is designed to be used with the Boston Acoustics line of installed subwoofers. One SA1 amplifier can power up to two of the same model subwoofer. Variable Crossover: The amplifier has a built-in variable crossover that makes it easy to achieve a seamless blend with the main speakers, while the 24dB/octave low-pass filter prevents the subwoofer from being easily localized by the ear, increasing placement flexibility. The crossover point may be adjusted from 40-160 Hz.

The SA1 turns on when a 12-volt power supply triggers it. Note: Be sure to use a power supply that is rated as, "9 to 14 volts DC @ 1.5mA max. 1/8" diameter female plug with tip positive." Music: amp is in standby mode whenever the front panel switch is in the On position. The SA1 turns on when an audio input signal triggers it. Connections Rear Panel Connections: Line In: left and right RCA audio jacks; use this configuration if you wish to set the subwoofer crossover point using the SA1's low-pass control knob on the front panel or are using separate components, such as stereo preamplifier.

Written By Devilsmane, Chesapeake, VA on Tuesday, September 30, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) About 5 years ago after Boston Acoustics stopped making their outdoor bass speaker I bought it to use in a home I thought I was buying. Unfortunately the economy decided otherwise and I never purchased the SA1 amplifier. On a couple of different occasions I searched for the item but it could not be found and was also out of production. A couple of weeks ago I hauled the unopened woofer from storage and decided to try and sell it of give it away but decided to make one last attempt to find the amp on line. I was suprised to see that Crutchfield had these in unopened boxes in stock and new. Pros: I decided to integrate the SA1 with the woofer in my home theater system. 1. Easy hookup using a trigger and a second bass output from my existing receiver and a Reference Furman. 2. No hum and powerful bass. 3. Integrated into an all Martin-Logan speaker system beautifully as a side woofer. Cons: None Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 BA SA1 Written By Bob, Minnesota on Wednesday, August 13, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Although any older design, the SA1 was extremely easy to hook-up and had all the features I was looking for. I am driving two 15 inch sub woofers and the 2 speaker outputs work very well. Pros: Easy hook-up and small size. Cons: None noted yet. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 SA1 subwoofer amplifier Written By Anonymous, Southeastern, Pennsylvania on Friday, April 19, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This subwoofer amplifier and its twin from Snell are very good, reliable products. This is my second and powers an in-wall Snell subwoofer used with a Snell IW-K7 in-wall array. The Snell satellites are driven by a Pioneer SC63 receiver. The room is approximately 2200 cubic feet. The original SA-1 is perhaps ten or more years old and is used with second generation Technics THX subwoofers which present a four ohm load. The Technics is used as part of a second generation Technics THX array. The satellite speakers are driven by a Linn 5125 amplifier. The room has Acoustic Sciences sound treatment and is approximately 1500 cubic feet. I did not know there were any SA-1's left and had tried a Definitive Technology product without success. The Def Tech product sounded very boomy from the first moment. Nowhere in the Def Tech manual, which claims that the product can be used with other manufacturers' passive subwoofers, did it mention that the product has a non- linear low frequency boost of perhaps five or six dB.. A call to Def Tech confirmed what I heard, though the customer service person tried to suggest that it was not significant. I feel that Def Tech misrepresents their product. Unless there is a compelling reason to the contrary, I roll off subwoofers at 80 cycles as per THX recommendations. The nicely made Boston has an equalization switch for wall and floor. While not "high end," the Boston is more than ample for the applications. Pros: It just plain works without difficulty Cons: In my opnion, it would be nice to have both adjustable low pass and high pass filters for some of the more challenging passive subwoofers Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 boston amp Written By toodles, West Fargo,ND on Sunday, December 26, 2010 I have this amp running boston pri85 subs(two in ceiling).and it pounds them.As a technical note i contacted boston prior to buying this to make shure it would run two subs.It does what people dont know is this amp has two sub channels,both are seperate 4 ohm capable channels,running at max 210 watts rms on each channel for a total of 420 watts rms for two speakers.this is a nice feature and makes wiring two subwoofers extremely versitile.either 8 ohms or 4 ohms on each channel,but the boston rep did say they suggest you run the same ohms on both channels.either way this is a clean powerhouse for subwoofers,that has the option to be rack mounted or wall mounted; also a nice touch.can't reccomend BOSTON ACOUSTICS,denon,murantz enough.they are one of the few companies that have fantastic customer service. 6 out of 7 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 1 question already asked Can this subwoofer amp with 2) 4 ohm outputs be wired into a single dual voice coil 4 ohm subwoofer speaker? [ john Aug 21, 2014 ] 2 answers Dear John: Thank you for your question about the Boston Acoustics SA1 which Crutchfield forwarded to me. I am not sure that I fully understand your question, but I may give you some usable information to reach a conclusion. I have two SA1's in two home theaters. One has been driving a Snell subwoofer in a Snell in wall array which is nominally rated at 6 to 8 ohms for almost two years. The other is driving a second generation pair of Technics THX subwoofers in accordance with the original Technics directions which have these two subwoofers wired in parallel. The Technics subwoofers wired in parallel are connected to a single output on the SA1 and have a total nominal impedance of four ohms when wired in parallel across the SA!'s output terminal. The SA1 driving the Technics has been in place for perhaps ten years. Before I bought the SA1, I had discussion with Boston or Snell (Snell had been purchased by Boston) and was assured that the SA1 could easily handle a four ohm load, which it has here for about a decade. If you are asking if the SA1 can easily drive a two ohm load, I really do not know and would be reluctant to do that with any home subwoofer amplifier without speaking with the manufacturer or better yet, getting something in writing regardless of the stated specification. It has been years since I spoke to anybody in Boston and Snell is now defunct, but their customer service was very, very good and the people I spoke to knew their products very well. I believe that Boston is still selling a passive subwoofer (in-ceiling?) which uses the SA1, so there must be somebody left who has thorough knowledge of the SA1. If possible, please have the Crutchfield people let me know what you end up doing. While the SA1's build quality is no match for the ultra high end, it s a very good product and has been extremely reliable. If there are quirks, even after a decade of use, I have not found them. Jerry [ JEROME Aug 23, 2014 ] I believe the answer is yes. I have 5 of these units installed, however I am only driving single coil subs in each application. The unit drives both outputs identically, so I would think from the SA-1's perspective it would think it is simply driving two 4 ohm subs. The amp is great, and applies a curve to bass output to properly accentuate lower volume levels.

This year we welcomed the Calgary, Greenville, Guadalajara, Kampala, Karachi, Louisville, Mexico City, Milwaukee, Monterrey, New Orleans, Nashville, Raleigh, Rotterdam, Santiago and Shanghai chapters to our chapter family, making us nearly 70 chapters-strong. A special mention goes to our Karachi and Santiago chapters for responding so effectively in the aftermath of devastating flooding and earthquakes.
While recent developments in Haiti have made working conditions less than ideal, our team is cautiously determined to meet our 2010 milestones before winter break. Over the past weeks, cholera has not abated and the international reaction to presidential election results has been less than orderly. Twice in the past month the Architecture for Humanity house enacted 4-day lockdowns to weather inclement protests. Still, with the start of winter break less than a week away, our staff and volunteers are doing a final push to finish construction document sets to pass to contractors at the start of 2011. The Rebuilding Center winter break begins this Saturday, December 18. The office intends to reopen January 5. Architecture for Humanity will release ground condition updates throughout the recess.

Despite recent turmoil in Port-au-Prince and elsewhere in Haiti, all's well for our design operations on the ground–given a few new lifestyle restrictions.
For the unintroduced, Haiti received their election results last week, with the current administration's protege just narrowly making it to January's run-off election. The protesters mostly represent the third-place candidate and nationally-revered pop star Micky Martelly, who received less than 1% fewer votes than the Préval-preened Jude Celestin.
From our team's perch at the Maison there were demonstrators marching the street and burning tires and election posters. The Maison went on lockdown for four days, much like the one that endured the presidential election itself. Below, design fellow Schendy Kernizan shows us where the demonstrations were taking place within earshot of the house:

Ecole Baptiste Bon Berger is a muscular K12 school campus in downtown Port-au-Prince. It's the largest school on our books, serving 1100 students with expectations to grow upon completion of their new buildings–two story classroom blocks lined in rows on the L-shaped site leave enough space for wide outdoor corridors but little else. Given the density and need to temporary class needs during demo and construction, there's little free space for school designers to work with.

ACT, Algebra, Arithmetic, Basic Math, Cello, Elementary Math, English, ESL, Fiddle, Flute, Geometry, GRE, History, Language, Math, Music Performance, Music Theory, Piano, Polish, Pre Algebra, Reading, SAT, Science, Test Prep, Trigonometry, Viola, Violin
For my tutoring sessions I use skills that include goal-directedness, I teach how to organize learning in small steps and how to set them up; I always strive to motivate and engage my students to make the learning interesting and fun; I also use self-control skills to teach how to avoid distractions and I use different focusing strategies. I use positive mind set skills to teach how to use failures as a learning opportunities.
I have a Master's Degree (2012) in teaching English to speakers of other languages, and Bachelors in Music Education (2010), both from Florida Atlantic University, as well as degree in violin performance from Poland.
I studied piano in Poland for 10 years & taught both piano & violin for over 20 years. I also teach flute & cello for the past 5 years, as I studied them during my Music Education program.
I teach music for over 24 years using the traditional and Suzuki methods. I am a fan of the Essential Elements 2000 for string instruments, and the Alfred's Piano Library for piano. Alfred's piano library can be used for any age as they also have books especially made for adult learners. I also like their music flash cards.
For teaching music theory I mostly used Master Theory.
I personalize every lesson, and always set goals for my students. Most of my violin students are members of the Florida Youth Orchestra as well as Gold Coast Youth Orchestra and my piano students participate in Pompano Beach competition and the annual Piano Guild auditions.
I teach any age and any level, and always stress that learning a new instrument is very similar to learning a new language, it needs a lot of patience, persistence and repetitions. My lessons are customized to my students needs, and are work in progress as they needs may change over time. I always remind my students that music can give them instant gratification when they learn to play favorite songs.
I always encourage my students to tell me about their music preferences, so I can incorporate them in their music lessons.
*** Lesson Details ***
All my tutoring sessions include reviews of previously learned material and if possible the use of technology. I use students books but often bring extra study materials if necessary.
All my lessons include: technique: I like to use the Finger Power for piano students and Essential Elements for my string students, and scales for both.
music theory: I use Master Theory or other books such as Hal Leonard's Piano Note spellers & Piano Music Theory books for younger ages, music flash cards to support learning notes and musical terminology, and of course the fun part performance.
Besides Essential Elements 2000 for strings I also use String Tunes and Fiddle Runners to add more fun to the lessons. For piano students I use Holiday Treats book, which comes in 2 different levels: Beginner & Intermediate, so my students have a new songs for a specific holiday.
*** Studio Equipment ***
I always bring violin with me to be able to show what I teach.
*** Travel Equipment ***
The students needs to have their books and assigned material ready for tutoring. Instrumental students needs to have their music books & instrument available as well as a pencil. I always stress with my students to be organized and prepared for their lesson, this way they will be able to focus better during the lesson. I bring my violin with me. I also ask that the room where the lesson takes place to be free of any distractions, such other siblings or any other noise. The quiet environment helps in faster learning.
*** Specialties ***
I tutor most K-12 subjects and prepare students to take ACT, SAT, GRE tests.
Music genres: Classical, traditional, Suzuki, Popular, Celtic, fiddle, Blues

Maria was born in La Habana, Cuba. She started her music studies at the early age of 4 years old, singing and acting in tv shows and receiving piano lessons.
At 7 years old entered Manuel Saumell Music Consevatory where she studied piano and choir direction. She continues her music studies at Amadeo Roldan Music Conservatory, one of the most prestigious music schools in Cuba, where she completed piano, flute and theoretical subjects. In 2000, she traveled to United Arab Emirates, as a part of work tour, where she played for two years in different scenarios in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Back in La Habana, Cuba, she entered the Superior Institute of the Arts, where she graduated with honors in flute and piano performance.
In 2006 she moved to the United States where she continues her music career performing, recording and teaching.
Besides her performer career she's been trained as a teacher, having extensive experience with all ages, from 5 years old to adults.
*** Lesson Details ***
I like to make the music learning process fun, but successful. I like to set individual goals for every student, so if you want to be a wonderful performer and a great musician I can provide all my experience and my patient to help you reach your dream; but if you just want to learn how to play an instrument, no pressure - you're more than welcome too.
I can improve your music skills and help you to reach another level. I will focus on your technique and the music performance. You'll see your advancement every day.
Every person can be blessed with the power of music...don't lose your chance!!!
*** Studio Equipment ***
dedicated lesson room in the house, full sized Casio keyboard (weighted keys and sustain pedal), has own flute but student will have to have their own , music stand, metronome
*** Travel Equipment ***
I expect they provide the instrument and the books, I usually recommend the books they have to buy; if they're beginners I can provide the first lessons music material.
*** Specialties ***
I usually adjust the methods and music style to every individual student, if they're small kids I talk to the parents to know their goals; then I choose individual development programs for every kid.
Bass Guitar, Cello, Clarinet, Classical Guitar, French Horn, Guitar, Music Performance, Music Theory, Saxophone, Trumpet, Violin
Professional guitarist/vocalist since 1976. Performed in Rock bands, Show Bands, Calypso bands, Jazz bands, and, yes, Wedding Bands. I have performed as a solo guitarist for wedding ceremonies, art shows, and other private functions. I have also performed on the trumpet and saxophone in bands, and on the violin and cello for wedding ceremonies.
Private guitar and bass instructor since 1984; Orchestral strings instructor since 1988.
My students benefit from my professional experience in that they focus directly on what is necessary as a performer and don't waste time on strictly theoretical exercises.
*** Lesson Details ***
When students take lessons from me I take some time to get to know their reasons for wanting to play the instrument and who their favorite artists/bands are. That way I can gear the lessons towards their interests which keeps them motivated and helps them relate what they're learning to "real-world" music.
I try to make the learning of music and technique as much fun as possible using challenges and games.
I base my lessons on a research based curriculum called "Jump right In" where students will eventually learn to "hear" the music they are reading the same way one hears the words they are reading in a book. Then, based on their age and interests, I use whatever instrumental technique books I feel are best suited for that particular individual.
After 3-6 months guitar students should be able to read and play basic chord progressions and simple single note melodies both by ear and by using standard music notation. This will mostly be in first position.
Similarly, Bass students should be able to read and play bass lines that fit basic chord progressions, and be able to play simple single note melodies in first position.
String students should have basic control of the bow and be able to read and play simple melodies by ear and by using standard music notation on at least 3 strings in first position.
*** Studio Equipment ***
I provide an amplifier, sound system, chairs, music stands, Keyboard with rhythm section, and a computer with a vast selection of music for listening and performing.
*** Travel Equipment ***
I provide supplemental materials, my own guitar and music stand and an Mp3 recorder to record lessons.
I expect students to purchase a method book, their own instrument, a music stand and a tuner.
*** Specialties ***
I am familiar with most band and string methods as well as the Gordon/Grunow "Jump Right In" method.
I perform in all styles from Classical to Calypso and everything in between.

The notion of transformation is integral to electroacoustic music. The term is commonly used with three nuanced meanings.
The processing of sound to highlight some attribute intended to become part of the musical discourse within a compositional strategy.
The use of technology to make a sound appear to seamlessly morph into another as part of the musical discourse.
The use of technology to make a sound with strong referential attributes appear to morph into another referential sound. This imagistic use of Sound Transformation has constituted the discursive basis of entire pieces, Trevor Wishart's "Red Bird" providing a notable example. In a similar fashion, sounds may be consciously transformed along a continuum between recognisability and abstraction, forming the basis of a musical argument.

with Jennifer Block, Grace Dammann, Wendy Lewis, Robert Cusick and Peter Van Der Sterre
This course is a collaboration between Beyond Measure School for Contemplative Care and San Francisco Zen Center.
Term 1: January 31 to May 10
Term 2: May 15 to August 15
Term 3: August 22 to December 6
Embedded with Buddhist teachings, this course engages individual, family and paid caregivers in contemplative practices and care methods through 11 months of coursework. Participants from a diverse range of backgrounds are welcome—from nurses to yoga instructors to lawyers, mothers, clergy and psychologists. All who attend this course share an intention to develop greater skill and confidence in caring for people who are aging, sick and dying.
San Francisco Zen Center Dharma teachers serve as core faculty for the course, which is led by Jennifer Block, the former education director at Zen Hospice Project. Along with guest faculty, the faculty guide participants in an integral learning experience, incorporating contemplative, didactic, creative and experiential elements to cultivate the skills of contemplative care.
Upon completion of all three terms, participants receive a certificate as a contemplative caregiver. Continuing education units are available (more info).
Contemplative care encompasses the breadth of our innate caregiving capacity with the depth of meditative wisdom and universal compassion. Contemplative care is more a way of care than a how or what. It brings the gifts of contemplative practice to the knowledge, skills and best practices of caregiving.Prior experience with Buddhism is not necessary.

The Principality of Monaco with its world famous Rock lies between France and the Mediterranean Sea. The prestige and the fame of this attractive territory, landlocked within the French departement of Alpes-Maritimes, spread much further than its borders, which the French writer Colette described as being made of flowers. Its space is limited (198 ha.), but the site is enchanting and unfolds along a narrow coastal strip four kilometres long, bounded by the mountainous foothills of the Tête de Chien and Mount Agel. Thanks to its mild, temperate climate, and to more than 300 days of sunshine a year, Monaco's vocation is to be a land of Welcome.
The city is made up of four districts
Monaco Ville, the historical seat of the Principality, situated upon the Rock where the Prince's Palace stands,
Monte-Carlo, the district surrounding the Casino,
La Condamine, around Port d'Hercule,
Fontvieille, the new industrial district, built on ground gained from the Sea (22 ha.).
